Yesterday evening a public meeting was held at
the Town-hall, Poplar, to make such arrangements
as might be deemed desirable for preparing a requi-
sition to J. D'A. Samuda, Esq.,M.P., soliciting him
to become a candidate for the representation of the
Tower Hamlets at the next election. There was a
large attendance, the hall being well filled. Mr. J.
Allen, one Gf the churchwardens, presided.
Mr. COLEMAN, on rising to move the first resolu-
tion, stated that the Reform Bill now under the
consideration of Parliament proposed to divide the
Tower Hamlets and give two members to each divi-
sion, and consequently it became the duty of the
electors to seek for additional candidates to represent
them in Parliament. It was generally understood that
Mr. Butler would seek the suffrages of the electors of
the borough of hackney, and that Mr. Ayrton
would desire to continue the representative of the
Tower Hamlets. The latter borough, therefore,
would require another member, and he could think
of no one who,
while perfectly familiar with Parlia-
mentary duties, at the same time so well understood
the interests of the inhabitants of the Tower Ham-
lets as Mr. Samuda. (Cheers.) As the representa-
tive of Tavistock they had been able to judge of the
way in which he had performed the duties that de-
volved upon him, and they had witnessed the
ability and clearness with which he had expressed
his views on important questions. He was a con-
sistent supporter of Liberal opinions, and being
practically acquainted with the immediate wants
of the borough he was in every way fitted to be
