Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from The Case of Thomas Lord Cochrane, K. B<br/><br/>When he first made his bow to the electors, it is a singu lar fact, that his lordship was scarcely known to them even by name; not above five or six housekeepers of any note rallied round his standard; but his printed address to the cia tizens, which displayed much penetration and judgment, soon brought him into notice. Its leading tone, while it frankly developed his lordship's principles, was happily in unison with the popular feeling he, actuated by the dictates of conscience, who scorn to be ranked among the great purifiers of the nation, and by sinecures and un merited pensions to drain the resources of 'their country, may do much good, even though their abilities are small. The other candidates on this ocasion were, Sir F. Burdett, Dir. Elliot, Mr. Sheridan, and Mr. Paul.
