Such, my Lord and Gentlemen, is a short summary of the position in which I stand before you. I have represented my case in its best, but, I think, in no unfair aspect—and I now leave the issue in your hands.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord and Gentlemen,

Your very obedient Servant,

J. F. FERRIER.

Edinburgh, 8th July 1856.
