HADDINGTON DISTRICT OF BURGHS.

Mr. Steuart of Alderston, havinc, been appointed one of
the Lords of the Treasury, arrived in Haddington on Mon-
day afternoon, and within twenty-four hours canvassed,
and may safely be said to have secured, all the district
of burghs of which he has been _ the trusted representative
in all the reformed Parliaments. Mr. Steuart's re-elec-

tion is now ascertained to be so sure that no man who
is not absolutely insane will adventure on even attempting
an opposition. Having canvassed and met his friends in Dun-
bar, North Berwick, and Haddington, on Monday, he pro-
ceeded to Lauder and Jedburgh on Tuesday, and on his arrival
at the latter place in the afternoon, was received with the most
enthusiastic welcome by the whole population. The whole
of the proceedings throughout the day afforded a clear and
unequivocal demonstration of the general feeling of satisfaction
on the return of Lord Melbourne and his friends to office, and
Mr. Steuart will be enabled, from the reception which he has
experienced in Jedburgh, to report what we know to be the al-
most unanimous sentiment in our borders, that the return of
Lord Melbourne to office is regarded by the general commu-
nity as the harbinger of peace and prosperity to the country—
as a pledge of thorough but wise reform, and as a guarantee
that the invaluable institutions of our country will be vigi-
lantly guarded, alike against the machinations of Toryism and
the horrors of revolutionary insanity.—Caledonian Mercury.
