In 1645 the House of Commons passed reso-
ton against any interruption to the freedom of
election by any commander, government officer
or soldier that hath not the right of electiDg,
aud in 1741 it resolved that the presence Of a
regular body Of soldiers at an election OF IN en-
bers to serve in Parliament, is high infringe
ment of the liberties Of the subject, manifest
violation of the freedom OF elections, and an open
defiance Of the laws and constitution of this
kingdom" And Stat. 8, Geo. H., CHI. 30, which,
by it's preamble, declares that "by the ancient
common law of the land all elections ought to be
free," requires that before the day appointed for
any election of peers to represent the Scottish
peers in Parliament, or of members of the Com
mons, all soldir bieted quartered in any place
Of election, shall be removed distance Of two or
more miles. and not return before the expiration
Of one day from the close of the polls. DeLolme
Const. Of England, Oh. 4. Later acts only con-
fine the soldiers to their barracks, instead of re-
quiring their removal but public sentiment goes
farther than the statutes, and Lord Palmerston
once met with severe rebuke in the House Of
Commons for permitting company Of volun-
teers to attend him at the hustings. Fischel on
