UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE. Yesterday a Meeting of the non-represented part of the people of London and Middlesex took place in Palace-yard, Mr. Fltiwr in the Chair. The object of this Meeting was, according to the advertisement, To take into consideration the propriety of making a public declaration of their rights t to adopt the Most effectual measures for redressing their wrongs, and to remonstrate with the Crown to remove th,sc grievances which are now becoming insupportable." Preparatory to the Meeting. a temporary hustings was erected within a few yards of the door of West minster Hall. Soon after twelve o'clock a cart ar rived, bearing , four inscriptions, exhibited in four different directions, with the words, " Come to the Public Meeting' in Palace-yard this day at twelve o'clock." About half-past twelve Mr. Hunt, th 2 Chairman, arrived in a carriage, accompanied by his son, brother, and Dr. Watson. They were received with cheers. Mr. Hunt and his friends immediately mounted the hustings, and after some consultation with Dr. Watson and others who were assembled, ad dressed the Meeting. - - • Mr. HUNT commenced by stating the circumstan ces which had led to his taking the chair. He observed, that their object on this occasion was not to peti tion Parliament, but to remonstrate with the t'rince Regent, and to call upon him to assist them in ob taining their right of voting for Members to repre sent them in the House of Common;. Alth: ugh he had nothing to do with calling this Meeting, he by no means w7.shcs.: to shrink from any responsibility which might attach to those who had called it, ina6-1 much as he was fully aware of every thing which, was to be done. Petitions signed by a million and a half of the subjects of this realm had been sent to the late House of Commons, but their petitions had been treated with neglect. In this sta of things it was their de:!n-inination not to petition the new House ci to appeal, 1)4)14, raanfur.y, and in a dignified tout to the Prince Regent himself, to restore to them those rights which they were entitled Ito enjoy before they were called upon, to light the batdes of their country, loamy the taxes, or to sop , port the Government. To restore to them the right of voting fiar.those who were to impose their• burdens upon them. ~Mr. Hunt concluded by calling upon the Meeting. to conduct themselves peaceably and with good order, and not to suffer themselves to be led Ave) , by the suggestions of those who might be inclined to encourage riot and confusion. A Decla ration and Resolutions would be read to them, which they might reject or approve as they thought proper. If there was any person disposed to offer objections to the sentiments contained in that Declaration and those Resoludises, he hoped he would be heard with patience. Their minds were open to conviction, and they would not.decide hastily or imprudently. - WAVION complained that some person who had pledged himself to come and deliver.his sehtl= meats upon this occasion, had not been manly enough to shew his face. He had not himself been in. the habit, until lately, of addressing a public assem blage ; but for more than thirty years he had paid no little attention to the promises of public men, to the measures of some of our greatest Orators and States men, and he had heard promise after promise, that the day was not far off, when those liberties, fur which our forefathers fought and bled, which had been torn from us, should be restored to us. But, alas ! faction had joined with the despots of Europe, not for the purpose, as they pretended, of giving happiness and liberty to Europe, hut to further en slave them. He wished the great body of borough mongers were present, that they might hear some important truths ; and he (Dr. Watson) would fear lessly mount any place to deliver those truths to them- It was not alone the loss of money that had been sus tained by the operations of the borough-mongering faction, nor was it money that would make recom pence or retribution, but there were those whc had lost wives, fathers, mothers, children, and almost every kindred tie, by the operations of a spendthrift Ministry—( Cries of -True, and Bravo!)—Every do mestic comfort had beef% invaded ; wives had fa mished from want; children had died from disease; and others had been visited by famine ; and a son or brother had been taken from a death-bed by the ef fects of the law ; and an almost general deprivation of all human happiness had been effected by the ope • rations of the law ; indeed there seemed to be a con spiracy against the happiness of Englishmen—( A p plause)—What recompence would those have whom he had described ?—(Cries of " None.") —The cor rupt borough-mongering faction ought to consider the situation in -which-the people of England stood —means the most effectual to alleviate the distresses of their fellow-countrymen ought immediately to be adopted, else it was probable the people may be driven to that state which may induce them to seek that relief which the Government and its corrupt fac Lions had refused them—( Applause ).—He had heard a great and learned man say, that their hearts ought to be strong ; he wondered all the hearts of the I:lc diets did not tremble at their conduct, when they reflected upon the state of misery and distress to which they had reduced the people of England.- -He had seen the miseries of his fellow country men in their darkest colours. He had seen the mise ries of the industrious part of the community. He had also visited the manufacturing part of the com munity, and their miseries were indescribable, all occasioned by she Borough-mongers. In some of those places they worked from four in the morning to eight at night : he had seen sights, the most mi serable and loathsome—sights that would appal hu man nature—children of the tenderest ages had been driven from their hovels to their work whimpering and trembling under the want of food—( Shame, shame ! )—The people of this country were now, if ever, to speak the language of men. Too long had they been trifled with by Ministers and their profli- gate agents, who delighted in misrepresenting the sentiments and will of those for whose service they were politically created. It was now for the people to say whether they would be minions to a set of abandoned men, supported by a parcel of Borough 'mongers, or not. The voice of individuals would not do ; the prosperity of the country depended upon the voice of the million—( Loud applause) ;—who were now to determine whether they were to exer cise their liberties, or to abandon them for ever. He was convinced that there were millions of people in England and Ireland who were determined to die 'rather than to submit to slavery of any kind—(Loud applause.)—The page of history said, that never was there a meeting of despots, whose object was not a conspiracy against the liberties of mankind. Those who were now assembling, could not be supposed to have any other motive in view ; and could the valiant people of this nation see sixteen millions en slaved by half a million !—(No, no, we never shall.) —lf Persia and Turkey and the East Indies were looked to, it would be seen how many millions of slaves attended the beck of almost a single tyrant. — England was approaching to this extremity, and would reach it if the most zealous and unanimous exertions were not made. Were not the people un der the controul of the bayonet, and had not Mini sters threatened in the public press to use the bayo net? Had they not brought forward their cannon against the liberties of mankind—( Great applause.) But whom were they setting up against the people, by calling in the aid of the military ? Father against son, brother against brother. In fact, they were doing that against which the feelings of human na ture revolted, and which never characte:ized the most savage state of existence.—( Cries of Bravo!) Those who should never be employed, except agaidst a foreign enemy, were thus forced into a bloody contention with those who were nearest to their hearts—(Loud applause.) Dr. Warsou then proceeded to read the Declara ticrn, which he said was the result of long and deli " Mr. HUNT said, that as the myrmidons of Govern ment were ready to pounce upon any in the Assem bly who appeared warm, it would be advisable to restrain the natural feelings upon such an occasion. All the Resolutions in the Declaration were then carried, and Mr. HUNT said they would, no doubt, appear in the public papers, with the comments of the hirelings of Ministers. Mr. liver then said. that a Remonstrance to the Prince Regent would be proposed, which was couched in language such as a free people shoeld use to their Sovereign. The Remonstrance was then read, several passages of which were loudly applauded by the crowd. Mr. Gttesr addressed the Meeting. The chief object of his speech was to urge the mechanical, the manufacturing, and the agricultural past of the community to think respectfully of themselves—to feel that those who arrogantly called themselves the higher orders, owed all that they possessed to the in dustry of the people whom they affected to despise. These haughty personages were, in fact, the Inc-e drones in the hive, where the industrious bees cc`, lected their produce; and it was the duty of the bees to drive these drones away, especially if they were• very troublesome. If men were to be estimated or respected from their usefulness, it was clear that the people e whose labour was the source of public wealth, were entitled to the highest consideration. Yet these were the people least considered in this country; but why? because those people did not duly regard them selves. For those people were not attentive to their interests. Their highest interest was the examination of the conduct of the Government of the country, which took away half the produce of their industry. Yet they rarely attended to this imprtant object until tile distresses of the country excited them t 9 think, and compelled them to feel. The change was fortunate, for the people now considered politics, upon which icy were quite as competent to judge :is those 'who presuined to regard themselves as the highest order. But why, should auy man of any mind shrink from forming an opinion upon political questions? For the great Locke had observed, that political knowledge was nothing but the fruit of common sense applied to public affairs. This v.as . the language of a genuine Englishman, who felt that all rational Englishmen could and should under: stand their public duties. Mr. Grest concluded with proposing the establishment of a Committee, to cot- lect subscriptions for the purpose of promoting the views of those' who were advocates for a radical Par liamentary Reform. The proposition was seconded by Mr. BLANDFOnD, and carried unanimously. It was resolved that Mr. Hunt should present the Remonstrance to the Prince Regent. Mr. HUNT stated, that lie should certainly comply with the wish of the Meeting ; but as he was unwil ling to become a puppy at any Levee, he should de liver it to Lord Sidmouth. That Minister might lay it before the Prince Regent or not, just as he thouelit proper; but whether or not, the sentiments of the people would be recorded. Ile exhorted the people to preserve a peaceable orderly demeanour ; for they must be aware that there were among them some minions of the Government on the watch for an apology to depreciate their character, or perhaps to assault their persons. They should then conduct themselves with peculiar caution. Let them act like the Cotton-spinners of Manchester, who maintained their rights without violating the laws. There h a d indeed been no violation of the laws on the part of these poor persecuted spinners. They sought only for an equitable proportion of the profits itsulting from the manufacture which their labour produced. They sought that to which every industrious labourer was entitled—namely, that he should be able to maintain himself and his family, and lay by some.' thing for a wet day. This was the right of an Eng lishman, and he should never cease to struggle until that right was attained. Here Mr. H. animadverted in the strongest terms upon the conduct of the Minis terial Press towards the journeymen of Manchester. The malicious activity of these Journals had had in deed the effect of producing the effusion of human blood: for the blood lately spilt.at Manchester was entirely to be attriguted to the London press. Mr. Hunt concluded with stating, that he would forth with proceed to the Office of Lord Sidmouth, to pre sent the Memorial, but he *quested that those who might think proper to accompany him would behave with the utmost good temper. Mr. Hunt then left the Hustings, and followed by the crowd, proceeded to the Office of .the Seem tary of State. Upon entering the ,Office, he was im mediately introduced to Lord Mmouth, to whom he delivered the Remonstrance, and Upon, returning to the crowd, who waited for him, Mr. Hunt stated, that Lord Sidmouth had promised to send him an .ni , sr. et within a few days.—ihc c:owd then dliperied.
