THE BERRESENTA7ION OF LONDON.

Yesterday evening Lord John Russell forwarded a
message to Mr. Sidney Smith, the secretary to the
Liberal Registration Association in the City of
London, to the effect that it is his intention to ap-
pear at Guildhall on Tuesday next, where he will be
happy to meet the electors. The meeting is called
for two o'clock.
An influential deputation of electors waited upon
the Lord Mayor yesterday at the Mansion-house,
and tendered to him a requisition most numerously
signed by all clasee of the constituency, inviting his
lordship to present himself for election. The chief
magistrate at once responded to the request, and
last evening his lordship issued the subjoined ad-
dress .--
" To the Liverymen and other Electors of the City of
London.
6' Gentlemen,—A requisition of a highly flattering cha-
racter, numerously and influentially signed, having this day
been presented to me, inviting me to allow myself to be put
in nomination to represent the City in Parliament, I cheer-
fully respond to such a call.
" Having been for so many years before the public I feel
that it is not necessary for me to make any statement of
my principles or my political opinions. I, however, desire
to assure my fellow-citizens that my efforts shall always be
so exerted as best to protect the privileges of this important
City, and generally to promote the honour and interests of
this great country.—l have the honour to be, your faithful
servant, " WILLIAM CUBITT.
" Mansion-house, July 19."
The election will probably take place the week
after next. It is said the Liberal party are entering
upon the contest with even unwonted spirit, and
with a determination to fight the battle to its legiti-
mate conclusion. The contest promises to be a re-
markably spirited affair.
A special meeting of the executive committee of
the Ballot Society was held at the offices yes-
terday, Mr. Bontems in the chair ; Mr. White-
hurst, Mr.*M. E. Marsden, Mr. Elt, Mr. Le Maitre,
Mr. Dawes, and Mr. Wm. Charles were present.
Mr. Whitehurst reported that he had ques•
tioned Mr. Western Wood as to his views on the
ballot, and obtained a satisfactory answer. The
committee accordingly unanimously agreed to an
address, strongly recommending Mr. Wood to the
support of the electors of London.
