It is a coincidence that Ministerial changes in Britain should. have involved by-elections in the two constituencies of Berwick. The northern portion of Northumberland, which the Foreign Secretary represented since 1885, is designated the Berwick-on- j Tweed Division; while Mr Tennant,' who submittedr-hhnseif for re-election I on his acceptance of the Scottish Secretaryship, sits for the Scottish ' county of Berwickshire. In the days" of the Border feuds the town of Berwick changed hands frequently, and in 1551 it was made independent of both countries, and became a little kingdom in itself. In this condition it remained until 1885, when by the Redistribution Act it was included in England. Down to that time the. preambles of Acts of Parliament declared that they were enacted for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and the town of Berwick-on-Tweed.
