QUALIFICATIONS FOR AN M.P.
We give the following list of qualifications for a member of parliament for Westminster, as a logical curiosity, extracted from a handbill very liberally distributed by Captain Rons’s party, during the late contest:—
1st. Because “he is brother to the Earl of Stradbroke.”
2nd. Because “his family have always been hearty Conservatives.”
3rd. Because “they have been established in Suffolk from the time of the Heptarchy.”
