Life and Letters of Lord Macaulay

CHAPTER IV
171/204

What?
Sir J.G.Whom are you writing to, that you laugh so much over your letter?
Macaulay.

To my constituents at Caine, to be sure.

They expect news of the Reform Bill every day.
Sir J.G.Well, writing to constituents is less of a plague to you than to most people, to judge by your face.
Macaulay.

How do you know that I am not writing a billet doux to a lady?
Sir J.G.You look more like it, by Jove! Cutlar Ferguson, M.P.for Kirkcudbright.

Let ladies and constituents alone, and come into the House.
