mined to keep their own secret. It is delightful to us to
witness the unanimity and the good sense displayed by our
fellow-citizens—they afford a sure indication of the continued
triumph of liberal principles. If the electors act in future
as they are acting now, we may look forward to the cause
of Reform progressing in the best and most constitutional,
and therefore most desirable mode, by an unbroken series
of quiet, steady, honest, and unequivoCal victories.—Scots
