Scope and Content

Letter sent from London. Cobden writes about the forthcoming parliamentary elections in Manchester, mentioning the "able" [Thomas Milner] Gibson [1806–1884, politician] and [John] Bright [1811–1889, politician], whose merit, rather than an expensive campaign, should vouchsafe them a seat.
