From a London newspaper, 23 Sept 1787, "The following toast has been drunk at several meetings on the occasion of the approaching general elections:
May we have
  Addition of honest men
  Subtraction of grievances
  Multiplication of elections
  Division among knaves
  Reduction of our debts"
Sounds like a good toast for the present time as well !
