All attempts to obtain a further hearing truidess3— F T' " Mr.P Ilatou rwatt. said, they had been told that t ß : y w ere about to prejudge a case, and that they 1., before they pronounced any opinion, to wait till t h e pet sons accused had been heard in their own defence. But was it not well known that the accused were not to be brought to trial? None of the ordi sary and regular means of inquiry were to be adop ted, the innocent were left without vindication, and the guilty without punishment. In such a case it was their duty, and their only resource, to exercise the legitimate right of :netting, and petitioning the Thmne. He did not understand that any of the ma terial facts alleged were denied, or that the right to petition and ts, assemble for the purpose ot petition hg was controverted. This latter right was founded en a principle established and confirmed at various nochs in die history of our Constitution. It was re cognized in a variety of Statutes, and formed• a part of Law of England. It was because this law had been violated, and one of the pillars of our Constitu ;on defaced and polluted with blood, that they were now invited to join in protesting against such an ex. rsp!c. With regard to the circumstances attending it, ore was remarkable, and, as he conceived, decisive a f fee question, viz. that no prosecution was to be undertaken on the charge, which, if well founded, cold alone justify what was done at Manchester ; and that, on the other hand, a prosecution was pend ing against an individual upon whose testimony that charge had been received. He could not then con ceive that they were acting prematurely in marking rein ccademnation of that violent and outrageous conduct, which could plead in its defence no better excuse than the perjury of a witness. After these Inv remarks, he should conclude by reading to them an Address to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, fitaideti upon those Resolutions which had been pre lieusly agreed to, and which had so nearly received ..rr twanimais support. Mr. ltru(,irrweLL then read the following Ad &e..,s, and moved that it be adopted : " To his Roval Highness the Puma Reamer. " The humble and dutiful Address of the Citizens and In habitants of Norwich, in Common Hall aesembkei, on Thur,lay, the 16;11 September, 1819. " We, tl'e Citizens and Inhabitants of the City of Norwich, assembled under the authority and in the presence of our Na l istrate, beg leave most dutifully to address your Royal llihne , s on a subject which we deem of equal and vital int znance to the interests of Prince and People. We humbly represent to your Royal Highness, that it is tapossible fur us, as Englishmen, and the free-born Subjects of :51i limited Monarchy which is the constitutional and rightful Government of these Realms, to avoid feeling and distinctly tnwssing our shame and grief and indignation, at the cruel out ntes which have lately been committed at Manchester; where r arnied force, acting under the direction of the loca Magis tracy, in defiance of all law, has done military execution on a tf..iceless multitude of our countrymen, assembled for a lawful .Ae, and peacefully exercising an important public right. iodtT.Altletitly of the urgent motives for this our humble tllt'Aijull and remonstrance, arising from the harsh nature Ai do:recite,: tendency of the transactions to which we refer, it ate so much the more earnest to express our feelings on this sza.tau, e:cateze w e have long observed, on the part of the Ministers, a settled and systematic purpose to deny, ha ant! suppress, the petitioning of the People ; and by thus etriepting tar current of their complaints in its lawful and td - Mt ;IL tattl to the 'Flume, to prevent the voice of a sufferinl I tie:: from reaching the ears of a generous Prince. " la heguage, therefore, the most respectful, and at the same ims the most firm, we earne:,,ly entreat from your Royal High as indulgent attention to our Address. The subject yields eclat it: interest and importance. One of the greatest of our r.,s:.—rights expressly recogoized when the Throne of these was settled on the present august Family—the right to l'ai;ion the Katz has been violated, and by means the most rallo. Bland has been shed, bodies have been mangled, lives Lye I ern &buoyed. The very principle on which is formed Sc founded the title of your Royal Highness's illustrious House t th. flee Crown ot the Kingdom, is brought to question, and edin 3 ered b 7 the ou•rages at Manchester. The Bill of Rights ilthre", that ' it is the right of the Subject to petition the 1a;: and it is indisputable, that upon the People's right to publicly, and by Pet ition to interfere in the administra im cf their aZairs, is mainly depending all the rest of our costa etitional liberties. " ire believe this right of popular assemblage and petitioning rite amongst the earliest, as it certainly is the most important • tit privileges. The preservation of it, in all the fulness of rifection, is essential to our existence as a Nation of Freemen. au descended to us from our forefathers; it is recognised in Great Charter of our Liberties ; and we hold it to be amongst terrine sacred of our duties to transmit it to posterity unin cd and entire. Confiding in the natural mildness and generosity of your Espl 11.glinesi's disposition ; relying also on the eflcacy of those - Zvd and beneficent principles of Government which, imbibed doily life, cannot fail to be deeply rooted in the heart of your tool Highness, we persuade ourselves that measures will at ate be taken for holding a solemn Inquest into the causes and Int:instances of the cruel conduct of the Magistrates at Wall a:au, on the 16th day of August : that so this gross and wan la violation of the rights and liberties of the People may not It showed to pass into an established precedent; and the stee -1 a uthnila actors, and abettors of this sanguinary military tu tak and execution may be brought to condign punishment. ire we deem this measure to have been rendered absolutely I c . `" 3 rYt because we have observed, with astonishment and t, th%t robtzinecl, no doubt, by false and wicked misrepre ada.s of the teal r cure and character of these proceedings) eaten; ithlicyl hw tour of your Royal Ilighness's approbation seen ut.

He time furrard, impelled only by a sense of what was to the Constitution of that cauntry in which it be the highest boast of all that they were ••,: lira.. (Loud and vehement shoots ofapplause). ulsed that they ought to wait for further before they presumed tl express an opi ul tin= awful and lamentable subject ; but where v:ere known, where facts were notorious and ' l :ti•al'lcted, and where t!‘ose facts were of a nit -4) afflicting, were they to be told that they pre .llectuustion, because they gave vent to their u'Stuttignation and abhorrence?—(Ahniause). :cfm.e. shedding of innocent blood, he would -Y by soldiers, but by men in military clothing , eppNresc teas here vociferated for same moments,. ~31,er!ded the p ro gr e ss the scistemee}—,was, he, _ undeniable. It stood recorded an example 11, most atrocious violence that ever sullied the of England. As to the evidence by which it, remained authenticated, he was not awate of a shadow of a doubt that could be s lid to rest upon it. As well might those amongst them, whom he now ad dressed, who had never been at Manchester, doubt of the existence of that town, as disbelieve it, because they had not been eye-witnesses of the transactions of which Manchester had been the melancholy scene. I ,The sole question, therefore, which was to be consi dered was, whether a Meeting, convened and assem bled as the Meeting at Manchester had been, was or was not an illegal Meeting ? Upon this must neces sarily depend-the inference whether it was or was not legally dispersed ? Was that Meeting held and com menced in tumult and disorder ? Were its objects, as far as they could be ascertained, illegal or dange rous? Did they menace the peace, or openly invade the public security ?—(Cries of no, no; nothing like it). If they had done so, they had been guilty of high treason against the Government ; if they hi d not so done, they had been illegally assaulted and dispersed. It appeared that a Meeting had been advertised, which, whether legal or proper, he would not here inquire, but called by certain persons who seemed to think that the Representatives of Old Sarum, or some other places of nearly equal importance, were not the most desirable or adequate Representatives of Manchester. The object, however, of this first Meet-, ing, was proclaimed by the Magistrates to be illegals, and what was the consequence? The Meeting did not take place : and all intentions of holding it with such a view were abandoned. A subsequent adver-i tisement was published, calling a Meeting for a din-, rent purpose; and, according to the words of the ad-' vertisement, the only purpose for which it was con vened was, that of considering the legal and consd tutional means of effecting a Reform of Parliament. Their right to meet for such purpose had been justly. described by the learned Gentleman who preceded him, to be part of the law of the land In addition to' this obvious principle, it was important to remember, that the Magistrates gave no intimation to the People as they had done on the first occasion, that they were not to assemble, or any notice that the law would be put in force against them. The people, thus unap prized and unconscious of their misdoings, assembled —as those whom he now surveyed had come toge ther: The only difference of which he was aware in the mode of their meeting was, that they had proba bly entered the Hall by one, two, or three, at a mo ment, till, in the course of a short titre, they had grown into that vast and respectable multitude which he had the honour to address. At Manchester, it appeared, that they came forward more multitudi nously, by fifty or one hundred at a time. What was there in this difference ? Did any Act of Parliament prevent men from so coming to a Public Meeting? or was there a Statute infringed by it? But it was said that all this was done in military array ; it was too clearly proved, however, that there was very lit tle military array on either side—(A laugh and cheers). The next great " portent, big with fear," was the image of a dagger, which was inwoven upon one of their banners, car: ied by one of these parties of 50. Now, it was odd that he, who, under the ensigns of their Guild, had often moved and acted with no less appalling emblems before him, should never have been accused of menacing the safety of the State— (A laugh). If they turned their eyes to the upper end of their Hall, they would see it decorated with a figure which held in its hand, as its peculikr symbol, a naked sword. It was under the auspices of this figure they of that city were accustomed to delibe rate and to act. (The eyes of the Assembly were here directed, with a considerable degree of amused attention, to a figure of Justice, bearing her usual naked sword, placed at the upper extremity of the Hall, and surmounting fine portraits of Lord Nelson, Mr. Wyndham, and one or two other excellent whole lengths of the illustrious ornaments of this country.) But again, it was stated, that upon a banner, borne in the midst of this formidable array, were inscribed the words " Liberty or Death." Strange that such a motto should appear as the omen of danger, or the signal of alarm among Englishmen ! Were, then, - their cars unaccustomed to such a sound, or rather, was there one among them who had not often re peated it with delight? Who did not cherish it in his heart? and who did not, if he had children, im press it upon them also ?—(A burst e. applause.)--, It was scarcely necessary for him to say, that it was a sentiment illustrated and adorned by the greatest Poets and Writers, as well as acknowledged - by the first Statesmen whom this Country had ever produced. Before, however, Mr. Hunt and his associates had en tered upon the business of the Meeting, before even its introduction was completed, the Yeomanry CaH valry plunged in amongst an unprepared people, and' cut down men, women, and children at their feet— (Repeated cries of Shame!) It was thus they effected e the dispersion of the multitu de then assemble . was persuaded that our whole history did not pro sent such an instance of atrocious and sangainary violence. Were they, for now seizing the opportu nity of expressing their indignation at these transac tions, to be accused of wishing to violate the laws, or to subvert the Constitution F And who were they who so accused them ? D id it unfortunate) ha that they were the same me n who had actually violated the laws of the land ; and not old y 'the laws of 1 h ..! land, but the essential l aws of j ustice and humanity—the same men who had at one time suspended our dearest rights, and ay another moment,' flagrantly s iolated them ' ? (Applause.) • A/though he could not be insensible to the e xistence of many cor. ruptions in the State, although he was no friend to the abuses too manifest in our Representative system,, although no admirer of the Septennial Act, heyt deeply reverenced the Con stitution, as estalishteod b e I the y our forefathers. He was a steady adhe rent Monarchical Government; but he was eqnudaltloy the prioi ched to the maintenance of popula!rights, a ciples of public and private liberty.

He was not one of the associates of Mr. Hunt, but he was an enemy to unjust oppres sion, and should not be found wanting to raise his voice, and bear his testimony against it, wherever it took place, or on whomsoever it was practised (Ap plause, mired with, cries of " Gurney for ever ') That acts of cruel oppression had been committed, he en tertained no doubt; but whilst he censured the pro ceedings of the local Authorities at Manchester, he must still mere strongly condemn those Ministers of the Crown who had thought proper to lend to these proceedings the sanction of their approbation. It was his sincere belief .that it was only by the united and cordial co-operation of all classes, the lower as well as higher, that the liberties of the country could be secured. Unless the people steadily resisted op pression, every right and every privilege•wot:ld sink under the weight of power, and yield to the influence of those in whose hands it was now vested —(Conti.: need cheers.) The Honourable Member, after a short, pause, read a paper which had beer. handed to him, and which contained? proposition for opening a sub cription, and was expressed as follows : " 8. That a Subscription be entered into fur the above pur pose, and a Committee appointed to carry .he intentions of the Meeting into effect." He thought the object was one in which they would generally concur, and begged leave to impress upon them, that, under all the circumstances of the case, the amount contributed would be of less importance than the number of contributors. _ flatrrnivau., Esq. seconded this. He re• marked that Mr. St. John had expressed a wish that no man should be condemned till he had been tried and heard in his defence. He (Mr. Southwell) wished so too; and if this rule had been adopted, the Man chester massacre would not have taken place. If the right of petitioning were taken away, or if pe• utioaers were to be dispersed by an armed furce, we might with truth be said to have no liberty. If the proceedings at Manchester were just and proper, we were under no Government—not even military law ; but under the sway of a set of red-coated barbarians. The Magistrates or their justifiers had pleaded that the Riot Act had been read; but he contended that they had no right to read it: there was no tumult or riot till the Yeomanry made one. He hoped that every man in the kingdom who venerated the laws, would express that feeling, by endeavouring to ob tain justice, and afford relief to the Manchester suf ferers. They would see by the proceedings of this day, that we at the eastern verge of the kingdom, fell for their wrongs, and wished, as far aswe could, to redress and alleviate them. If we owed this duty to the People, we owed it also to the Prince. He had been grossly imposed upon by his Ministers, and he believed that he was quite ignorant of the vote of thanks to which they had attached his name. The question was then put on this Resolution, and it was carried unanimously in the affirmative. The MAYOR, in reply to a vote of thanks for his conduct in the Chair, observed, that he had taken it in the performance of what he conceived to be his duty ; and the consciousness of performing it was a satisfaction which could only be enhanced by the .knowledge that the manner in which it was per formed, met with the approbation of his fellow ci tizens— (Hear, hear.) Upon this the Meeting was formally dissolved, and the crowd dispersed.- - The most perfect order pre Tailed throughout this promiscuous assembly. MANCHESTER, SEPTEMBER 15. INQUEST OF ROBERT CAMPBELL FURTHER PARTICULARS. (From the Morning ( hmticle.) The first examined was Mrs. CAMPBELL, the widow of the deceased. She deposed to the condition of her husband, who was a constable, at the time he was taken home to his house upon the 17th of August, to the extent and nature of his illness, and to the period of his death. She said, that at the time her husband made a certain declaratioa to her, as to the attack • made upon him, to which declaration she had de posed before a Magistrate, he expressed hopes of his, recovery. On this answer, which was made to a quests. from Mr. Ashworth, that Gentleman addressed the Jury, observing, that although the declaration of a man who had no hopes of life was admissible evi dence, such declaration from one who entertained and expressed these hopes, was not to be attended to. [Here, to elucidate the subject, it is necessary to state, that Mrs. Campbell had deposed before Mr. Hutton, the Magistrate, that her husband had com plained of having been grossly ill-treated by Taylor and his servant ; and that, in consequence of that de position, Mr. Hutton issued a warrant above a fort night ago, upoa which those persons were commit ted to the New Bailey, on a charge of Murder.] The next witness was Brown, a beadle, *ho swore that, about ten o'clock in the morning of the 17th ultimo, he saw the deceased with a pistol in his hand in Newton-lane, followed by an immense mob. who were pelting him with stones and brick-bats ;-- that the deceased tan-into the house of Taylor, the primer, who keeps 'the Angel public•house in that one ; that Taylor's doors and windows *ere imme diately closed, but that several of the mob broke in the door, dragged Campbell out, knocked him down, and that a cry being raised that the soldiers were coming, the mob ran away ; one, however, returned, and trampled on the body of Campbell. after doing vebich, be raised the skirts of his coat, and gave him la kick upon the posteriors; that then this person, Lynch others, exclaimed, We have done for another ,of the and, after a pause, the witness added, " Constables." Witness described the person ' 'who last so struck Cawpbell, to be without any coat, to be a tall and rather dark-complexioned man.— Witness deposed, that he did. not interfere to rescue Campbell, because he was afraid. to do so, in conse"-, quest= of the foxy of the mob ; and believes char for the same reason, neither Taylor nor his servant durst interfere for thetriotection Campbell. Ile saw Taylor, who had got. a black eye, *high he had not bdure, f tk . e afro, and,isrhiels witness believed to-be *, ch p f o ß aemeest al.isostsesnt from themob: They. were all appereisthinitheinstest order-, tlisy seamed . to Ise weevers. (Here Mr. Asswonrs, addressin himself to a g Juryman who was taking note., asked him for What purpose he was taking them JURTMA N-4 am taking notes for the guidance of my own judgment, Mr. Asti WON I hope not for publication. • JURYMAN—Certainly not. The Keeper of the Pack-horse public-house, with the sister of Taylor, and l:is servant. corroborated the evidence of Brown, adding, that they saw blood on the greund where deceased was lying, when knocked down by the mob opposite Taylor's door. The servant however stated, that she saw three per sons return from the mob to trample upon the de ceased instead of one, as deposed to by Brown. On this Mr. Asti woltert observed, that a variance of deposition upon minute points,served only to con firm the main statement. Mr. BA GUEL Y saw the mob following the deceased, exclaiming, that he had fired at the people and killed two men and one woman yesterday ; and JAMES A L LEN Marl/IC(1 the fact as to the pursuit Of the mob after Campbell, and fiat they dispersed when the cry was raised thatthe soh:fiefs were coming. ELLEN THOMPSON witnessed the pursuit of Camp bell, and saw the soldiers fire at the mob. Two witnesses Sakv Campbell fire a pistol from the window ()Ibis house about eight o'cleck on the morn ing of the 17th ultimo, and thAt something struck the opposite wall. 'One thought lie heard something pass near him after the shot. DANIEL POTTER saw thousands following Camp bell in Newton-lane, and heard them cry out, " The villain has been wantonly firing ar the people." He "also saw Campbell dragged out of Taylor's house, and knocked down by the mob. It was all over in a minute. He did not know any person in the crowd, nor did he think he should know any of them again, although he resided in that neighbourhood.—[lt was remarkable, that such was generally the statement of the witnesses, although the majority lived lit the neighbourhood of Campbell's residence.] W. CUNNINGHAM bore testimony to the same effect. THOMAS SIoMITH heard several voices exclaim when Campbell was down, " the villain, kill him." ALEXANDER CRAIG saw Campbell fire a piste' from his window, about eight o'clock, on the morning of the 17th ultimo, and saw him afterwards load another pistol, and having then gone away, he knew nothing more about the matter. Could not say that Campbell levelled the pistol at any one, but saw something strike the opposite wall after the shot. A JURYMAN observed, that he understood it was a common practice of the deceased to fire off pistols ; and two other Jurymen said that they heard the same of Campbell. HANNAH Asnwonra saw Campbell running from the mob with a pistol in his hand. MICHAEL SMITH bore testimony to the same effect, as did Sarah Hargrave and James Hargrave. EDWARD BAISLEY refused to give evidence until his expenses were paid, as he had come twenty miles from his business, in order to attend the Inquest ; but on being told by Mr. Ashworth that he was not ee. titled to claim his expenses on a criminal case ; and being threatened with committal by the Coroner, if he persisted in his refusal, he deposed to the same Effect as the other witnesses respecting the pursuit of Campbell by the crowd; adding, that no one durst attempt to rescue Campbell, such Was theftity of the people who pursued him. He, therefore, thought that Titylor, from whose house the deceased was dragged by the mob, dared not to interpose for his protection. JAMES M'Aer Rev, a weaver, deposed, that the de, - ceased had come into his house to escape from. the .mob, and. that he put the back door upon his back to shelter himself from the stones pelted at bins by the people, none of whom witness knew, bul he might identify some of them if he saw them age4n. AINSWORTH saw the. pistol -fired by the de ceased some time before the attack of the mob. A Surgeon deposed, that Campbell came by his death through violence used upon his person. There were 26 witnesses examined altogether, and it was peculiarly remarkable, that with the excep tion of three or four, the depositions of all the others were previously arranged and drawn up, to be then sworn to and signed. On the evidence being closed, Mr. ASHWORTH addressed the Jury. He began by stating, that for the sake of the individuals in cus tody upon a charge of perpetrating this foul and brutal murder, he felt it his duty to submit a few ob servations to the judgment of the Jury. That those persons, viz. Taylor and his servant, were quite in nocent, was, he thought, perfectly obvious. Nay, it was clear that they were not only innocent, but pe culiarly meritorious, for in shutting his door and windows, upon Campbell getting into the house , Taylor had done all in his power, without endan gering . his own life, for that unfortunate man's protection. Therefore, he concluded that the Jury would not hesitate to pronounce a verdict of ac quittal with regard to these individuals, and thus restore them to society with an unsullied character. — Here the Learned Gentleman commented upon the evidence, observing, that there could be no doubt as to the good and loyal intentions of the deceased, or that he was a man peculiarly anxious for the preser vation of the public peace, and for the security of our excellent Constitution. It was, no doubt, to be lamented, that at a period of such ferment he should have fired the pistol alluded to in the manner de scribed ; but then, as it was observed by one or two of the Jurors, it was known that Campbell was in the habit of firing off pistols ; and it did not appear that the pistol which he had fired on the moraing on which he met his death was levelled at any one. He (Mr. A.) fully believed that it was not, and that the deceased fired this pistol .merely to discharge this loading. Such being the case, he thought that no stress should be laid upon that act of the deceased, . who had been evidently murdered in a most outra geous manner by some persons unknown; and it was to be remembered, that any man acting among the mob was equally guilty with those who actually struck the deceased, because the whole were contri buting to the same end. The Learned Cseatiernan concluded with expressing his conviction that tbet Jory would decide justly, according so the evidenat, land upon a Fair and full view of the whole of the cash. The Coroner and the strangers withdrew frotothe nem, and sifter deliberating for about tea.
