for the mutual comfort of
'speakers and auditors, the former ascended a temporary
'Platform shortly after seven o'clock, and Mr. J. T. Nor-
th! (in the 'unavoidable absence of Mr. W. Leaf; from
'horn a. -respectfr.l apology was read to the meeting) oc-
cupied the cht.',r. The first La tip speaker who presented himself was Sir G.
cu.., BajliciiT, to whom a most cordial greeting was given.
, ,he appeared before them as a merchant of the j., °:. London, who, having pledged himself to the
~7,,,acy of free. trade measures, had aspired to a seat
.'4
a aril ame n t as the representative of those principles.
•-•(Cheers.) It was true they had witnessed the triumph
frtffree trade, but there was a strong party in the country
atilt perseveringlin their hostility to the measures lately
conceded by Parliament, and therefore it was the
ibounden duty of every constituency to see that the
4eondidates of their choice were prepared to sustain those
treat principles which had been recognised by the Le-
gisla.ture.—(Clieers.) To the removal of all unjust
on food, on labour, or on income, he pledged his
warmest exertions ; and with regard to l
,buriala and the health of towns, he should beintermura always

command his advocacy, and he would never sanction the

e claims of Lord John Russell, and in allusion to
issaron question often discussed, as to the eligibility of
Pointßothschild, he observed, that it was one which

any remarks he may think proper to you on the oce "lion; but, on the other hand, out of etiquette towards
oar Worthy chief magistrate, I must take leave to intro-
duce to you first his Lordship.—.
The Loan PROVOST, on thing,(Cheers was loudly
applauded.
Me apologised for not being able to prepare himself in
any manner for speaking at the present meeting. The
four candidates before you profess, apparently, nearly

Upon all the leading questions ofthan the day the candidates
are very much at one. The most just test, ,to
take of their fitness for the office is to refer youtherefore
to their
Past history, and with respect to the manner in which
they have conducted themselves in the offices which they
have held.—(Cheers.) Mr. Dixon, being the oldest, is
entitled to come first. He has, perhaps, been longer a
public man than either of the others. Mr. Dixon, I
believe, has all his life been generally forward in pro-
moting those great measures for advancing the condition
of the people at large. Whether in these respects

to say. He has had at least twenty or thirty
Tears to act his part in society, which I cannot re-
fer to for myself, but although my ten years cannot be
Placed in the balance against his twenty or thirty in
regard to time, I trust that, without presumption, I may
hope I have done my duty in the several situations I
re occupied, and that the manner in which I have
discharged these duties may have some weight with yon
in my favour.—(Cheers.) Mr. Macgregor in point of
seniority comes next into view. He is not only known
tA3 many of the citizens of Glasgow, to the country
lat

--(Cheers.) Mr. Macgregor has been in connexion witha
°lle or other of the Governments of this country for
Period of fifteen years. The manner in which he has
discharged the important duties appertaining to his
oituation has not been for the interests of the citizens
of Glasgow merely, but for the advantage of every
country with which we have entered into commercial and
mercantile arrangements. Mr. Dennistoun and myself,
I believe, entered upon public life very much about the
acme time. He has had the advantage over me of being
a member of the National Legislature, and in that ca-
!Pecity has served for about ten years. I, on the other
land, in the more humble capacity of a town councillor,
121 the same period, or nearly so, have filled all the im-
ortant offices connected with our civic Legislature.
Z.*Uhe manner in which I have discharged my duties there
a3' be beat indicated, I think, by reference to the respect
ieh has been shown me by those with whom I have
430ciated and by my brother magistrates, and who were
I° Partial as to elect me to the high and important office
Which I at present fill.—(Cheers.) I intended to have
°ecuPied your attention at this time with a number of
tellber questions, such as the subject of free-trade, the
uiardreney, church and schoel endowments, the poor-laws,
to—fv° on, but I fancy that my explanations in regard
te,,Tese matters have already in different modes been
made known to the pubic. it any gentleman, however,
Vulehes me to speak upoe them, I will do so, but I think
will be better and more profitably occupied in
toe:Ling Mr. Macgregor, than for me to detain you any
icier. His Lordship resumed his seat amid applause.
