The Lord Mayor (Waithman) took the Chair very soon after twelve o'clock, when the minutes of the last Meeting were read. The LORD MAYOR rose and stated, that the Lord' Mayor of Dublin, Sir Edward Stanley, and two other, Gentleinen, were in the adjoining room, and he was sure the Meeting would have no objection to their being invited to be present—(Cheers). The Lord Mayor of Dublin (Smith), Sir Edward Stanley, and two other Gentlemen entered, shook hands with the Lord Mayor Of London, .and took their seats on his right hand. ' The LORD MAYOR, after some Tontine business, rose and-read the Requisition for this Meeting to Petition against the Alien Bill. Mr. 'Forum began by apologising for maiviiig on a subject of a degree of importance far beyond his abi lity to do justice to. He proceeded to state and refute the various objections to the frequent exercise of the right of petitioning by the Corporation. The pre - sent ► object of their petitioning had no connexion with party ; it did not arise from popular effervescence, and he could not be charged either with being influenced by popular, feeling,. or with endeavouring to excite it. He hoped to have credit for acting purely from conscientious feel ingsof the impolicy of the Alien Bill. The present aspect of the times did not holdout any prospect of a change of Ministers, and he for one was happy to bear his tes timony to the unproved principles and proceedings of the present Ministry. The impolicy and injustice of the Alien Bill was proved, as had been well remarked by an .Hon. Member, whose eloquence could only be sur passed by his candour and sincerity in the case of free dom and humanity; he meant Sir James Mackintosh—' (Hear, hear.) By the very important alterations made In 'the 13111 now before Parliament, it was admitted, even by the Right Hon. Secretary for the Home Depart. ment, that the principle of the Bill was to be justified only by necessity. But all the reasons ever offered to prove a necessity had long ceased to exist. Why then should we net raise our voice and call upon Ministers, who seemed half inclined to be defeated, at once to drop the measure? He.was happy that they were preceded by the liberal Coiporation of Nottingham. lie thought it auspicious too,, that the second reading of the Alien Bill was postponed. He anticipated confidently, there fore, 60011 success of their Petition to abandon the ' odious and illiberal Alien Act. Front the Jibe; al prin ciples and measures of the present Ministry, he even entertained sanguine hopes of their repealing the infa monk Six Acts—(Hear, hear). Foreigners had been en couriged to come to this country by the excellence of our institutions. They had principally introduced the silk trade. Under the truly English reign of Elizabeth, many foreigners, who fled from the cruel persecutions of the Spanish Goiernment in the Low Countries, had settled in Norwich and Canterbury. Many of the respect able inhabitants of those places were descendants of those refugees. The very respectable strangers who were present, knew that ninny most respectable per ton. in Dublin were similarly descended. Need he remind • them that Jortiri and Romilly, the first orn.:ments of the Church and . Bar of , England, were descended from foreign refugees? On every consideration of humanity, as well tt policy, this odious measure aught to be re nounced. To its influence abroad must be ascribed such treatment as Mr. I.3lwring erpei kneed, who wa. con fined in a dungeon for no cause io the world, until Mr. canning's spirited interposition released him-,-( Cheers). could not trust hirnself with any observatiOns on; the Gentlemen. of the Holy Alliance, for fear of using, language which would by some he considered internee; rate. By their conduct, men of distisiction for science, patriotism, and every public and private virtue, were' . driven from Italy, Spain, Gefinany, and almost every cauntry in Europe. Io this country they were deterred from cap essing sympathy for their oppressed country, .from feat of this Alien Act being called into operation against them. It was not the *vt holom or moderation of . Ministers, hut the positive power of the law, w hich any . foreign& of spii it and sensibility would choose to rely . upon, or indeed could seem ely trust co—('( fear, hear). .He hoped all parties would unite in removing such a disgracoto our country. Ile concluded by moving a Petition in termspf the above observations. Mr. Pdtveci. contended, that the :epeal of this Net was necessary for the promotion of a more liberal inter =course with foreign States. lie said he had himself felt the inconveniences of such a system, for when he went over to Paris, he and his friends found themselves marched from office to office, like so many deserters.— In short, at every step he was made to feel that he was not in England, and how annoying similar regtela.Kns made in this country must be to foreigners. He cer tainly must admit that a beneficial change had taken place in the policy of Ministers ; it was shewn in the appointment of a'Committee for the examination of the Criminal Laws, and he hoped it would be sti:l I urther Manifested in the surrender of this disgraceful Act, for which there was some kind of pretence at the net iod of its enactment, but there - could be none now for its con tinuance. They were now honoured with the presence of the Lord Mayor of Dublin, with some Members of the Corporation of that City, and he would beg to re mind them, that they were indebted to our former hos pitality and freedom given to refugees for Bishop Saurin,,, the grandfather of the present Attorney-General of Ire.t land. After some lengthened observations, he concluded by seconding the motion made by Mr. Taylor. Mr. Wti.cif said, he was not for taking up the time of the . Court, that being unnecessary after so inucli had bees raid to the purpose; but he woli:d take the it2e: ty of reading a few verses upon the subject—( Laughter). 'Mr. JAZIEB spoke to order, anti said, they cruie there to discuis a question, and not read, or hear read, verses npUn the subject. know many Gentlemen of ability that have quoted and read the verses of others in this Court, fon *ate I intend to read are my own—(Laughter). 'the LORD MAtOR said, it was not customary for GesatleMen to read written speeches in that Court, un less it was to make a defence against some charge, and they were . totally unaccustomed to public speaking, which was nor the case of the worthy Member ; still less was it custoiney to hear read speeches in verse. He .• pat it to the Court, .whether the proposal of the worthy Member was consistentwith itt dignity? If verse might iy tdme one mists chdose to sing it, and after to trallg vitherd—(Ltraghtlfr). Mr. Wawa desisted front readhig his verse, but pro- - • eieded to et:biked* edientric strain. ille.said be had shewn; himielf to be a Briton. The foreign despot's, he said, were Rhin for John with along line, and if they only ' cau ght him by the gills, iheY would throw him overboard. It was disgraceful to continue suck a measure as this. • Mr. lutes opposed the motion.—They had been told by the Mover, that they ought to confine themselves closely to the subject before them, but it was a pity he had not set them the example. What had the Sii-Acti to do with the question before them ? What right had 'alley to eater into a discussion of the conduct of the loly Alliance?—They were told to be on their guard against using strong and intemperate language; but na language, he conceived, could be stronger, or more in temperate, than to talk of nations being under the 4. fangs of despots." Such language, •as had - been ob served elsewhere, was extremely dangerous and un becoming.—They were not warranted in giving such descriptions of the conduct of Foreign Potentates. The entrance of the French into Spain. for instance, which had been alluded to, he must in his conscience say had done a great deal of good, in preventing the extension of very dangerous principles.—(Hear). He denied the statements made in the requisition, as well as those made in the resolutions. It was said the Act was in consistent with the commercial policy of the country. Now he denied that the Alien Act had anything to do with the commercial policy of the kingdom ; he de• vied that it was repugnant to the feelings of the people, or to the general opinion. NO expression had been made of a public opinion on the subject, except from Nottingham; but he denied that :o be a criterion. Ile, for one, was ready to - as,ert that Ce only true mode of ascertaining the public opinion, was to collect the opi nions in the House of Commons. It was asserted that the Act was prejudicial to the best interests of the coun try, but he held that no persons were better judges of the intense.; of the - country than the preseiq Nlinivers, who had resolved upon its continhante. The opposers' of the measure had entirely lost sight of one circum stance, which WAS extremely material. We were ilk yet in profound peace—We had' enemies to our prOspe rity who might have agents ,in this country, whom it might be necessary to remove, and attic)) could onTybe' done under the authority of such an Act as that in'qUei tion. If there were no other reasons fur thi Continu ance of the .Act, this he contended was amply suNcient. If a violent exercise of the authority given by this Act had - been made, there would be some. reason for petit tinning, but there hadbeen'tiohe. This Moderate anti temperate exercise of Act was indeed objeOted to by pertains who aoul.l object against erferything, and selfo actually contender] :that it formed a strong gationd for its discontinuance. He concluded by expressing a hope that the Corpotation would not uselessly Petition, and that they would rely on the sound discretion of those Ministers in a hose praise so much had been said. .Mt. PA TUN,. Mr. Shear, and Alderman VEN A ISLES, replied to . Mr. .fittletts. Mr. Burisawirefh and Mr. CRACKER were against• _the Motion. It was, • hewever, ultimately carried by a tinge majority. A Petition'to Parliament accordingly was-agreed to, and ordered to be aimed by the . Town Clerk, stud pre. seined in the usual form by the Sheriffs,'attended by the Itemembrancer. _ The Court requested the Representatives for the City, and such other Members as hare seats iii Parliament, to support the said Petition. - The Resolution was ordered to be advettised.—(l'ide Advertisement in front of our . .

Mr. SCASIXTT Will for the defendtnt, and an cross-examining one ortbe plaintiff's witnesses, he asked him—Have you a good memory? lave not. Are you alive ?—I believe I am. Why do you say you believe. Have you any doubt about it ? Weff, I don't know, lam sure. lam alive to all appearance-- (Loyd laughter). Mr. SCA RLETT then addressed the Jury, and said— " Before I proceed upon the circumstances of thi'sdefence, allow me to say a word or two for myself - yes you might , be alarmed at my appearance here. Permit me to asH sure you; I did not die on Thursday night last—(Losol laughter) ; or if I did die on that night, and if indeed on the two following days I appeared in this Court on the part of my clients as an apparition, permit me now to assure you, I revived yesterday—(Laughter); and that I now address you in better health than I have been 'tor the last week." The Learned Gentleman then con tended against the plaintiff's demand.—Verdict for the plaintiff. LIBEL.—WATTS V. BAINES. Mr. SCARLET r stated the case.—The plaintiff,-Mr. -Watts, is the Editor of the Intdligencer ; the defendant is the Editor of the Nerear4, both rival Newspapers published in Leed.:. This' action originated in the fol lowing circumstance : A Mr. Swire, an ovetseer of the, roads in the township of Skipton, sent an advertisement to the Leeds lute/lige:wen addressed " to road-makers," and desired it should have five insertions; it was ac cordingly inserted, and previous to the third or fourth insertion, a person of the name of Merryweather (an auctioneer at Skipton, and an agent for the defendant's Paper, the Mercury, there); sent another and different A dvertiserr.eat for insertion, li z y directions of Mr. Swire, bat did not direct the first to be Withdrawn. Both were 'consequently inserted together ? ' and this provoked the anger of Mr. Verryweather,• who addressed a private i letter t' Mr. NV.atts on the subject. This letter, how ever, was of such a nature as to induce Mr. Watts .to ' reply to it Ilia oila the medium of his paper, which he did in the foilcAting terms : " A person of the name of Merryweather, who is agent to the Leeds Mercury, has addressed a very insolent letter to our office, re specting an Ntivettiseasent i headed 4 to toad-makers, which has appeared several times in. the Leeds bitelli- ' gencer4 it isAisie to the Gentleman by whose orders the 'Tdiettisetrient was handed to us, . to Mentibh., that after 4 had been inserted three times, another Advertisement ptder, for two insertions, was forwarded from the afot e said Mr. Merryweather, without any instructions to dis :continue the one originally sent, which we had been de sired td insert in cur five succeeding Newspapers ) anti yet laehas, in no gentle terms, charged our office with neglect for attending to, this: request.: had the error really rested with us, this errant might have written in a more' tem pirate Manner rit appears, howevet„ to have arisen entirely. froth . hit ensn inadvettenee? and he wishes to excuse himself with the gentletrian Who em ployed him by blaming es.
