(TO THjB EDITOE OP THE SOTTTHIiAITD TIMES.) Sir, —Some of us no doubt have heard of the notorious " Nottingham Election Lambs !" now it is a noticeable feature in our late political meetings, held at the Theatre Royal, that no sooner does an elector ask a question or want to give an explanation any way adverse to the-Lums-den party than they are set upon by the " Lumsden Lambs," and hooied and called all sorts of abominable epithets; I mean by the " Lumsden Lambs" the male offspring of George, the son of Lumm ; now I do not write this expecting that any paternaß. influence* will be the effects of this; for I hold that a man that loses all self control, and is subject to such fits of temper, I might call it trenzy, as be eihibitedatMr T, M. Clerke's
political meeting, is not capable of controlling his " Lambs," but I have no doubt the public will know in future how to treat such a nest of noisy youths. Reason. August 14,-1867.
