MIDDLESEX MEETINti. Monday, !here was a meeting of the freeh4lees of the comity of Middlesex. at the Merman,. Hackney. open the orlbject•il the Bill its Parliament fee the Suspension of the. Habeas Carina. Act ;At our o'clock the Sherif f s miter d, sad ware followed by 1 the Italie of Bedford, Lord. Hollandoir Philip Francis, Sir Francis Burdett, Mr. 'Syne, Mr. Melinth. Sir Philip Praucis commmend the banana of the day. His .age and tutirnuities would he said, prevent hies kora ad finessing the meeting at any length, suet Hoods' have prevent ed him frata attending any meeting seem any other sishiect thin that to which the inter. it of' the count' y were se witialy eativeriled. As far as his ability wrist, lie should a ppose the int a-ure pendia; in Parliaissent. W Iset 'might be expected oder the pawing of the Art? Would nut Ministers Multi it these duty to outspend the trial Sly jury ? Of tte two evils perhaps the suspension of the snail by juts worth' be the moss en:hirable, for there were eases in which juries wefts parked, and acted as instruments of power—else how would that illustrious character Lord Russell have been found godly noon a charge the most base :ind maliguatit What was to be expected next ? Perhaps the Sear Ch. lostorr.—W hat neat? A atanding army of fiireseuers 1 The ;subtle, ion, were to be persecuted by a host of spies ant informers, whom the Romans called defotores —the greatest curse that ever fell upon a nation. Judas got his rewash, stud lee trusted the modern d.hstures would theirs.—Sir Philip then moved, that a petition so she Honer of Commun. moans, the furth e r of the imbeds Corpus tel should ear adopted by tier meeting. Be. Cigar s e e l e d the million. He was determined at all times to raise his voice against that carver of noo.gespeu• meut which was calealated to bury in one runt grave the liberties of the peoplo and the toreros:44,e of tlie Crowe— overament VIAI strong in every thing except the atfeelions of the people. Major Cartwright spoke on the sante side. The Doke of Bedford a-ssired Suer meeting that he was adapted to attend meetings neither by the state of his health nor hi• habits. The present question, however, was so deeply iuteresting to all elassesof the , that he could sins resist the opportunity of di daring his sentiments upon this great and portentous contest between the Crown and the people, for the iiherties of the people. When he said the Grows., he invent the Ministers of the Crown, who had dup. attached the siberty of the subject, awl were mallow inroads urea the eoustinition, which rested upint the broad limbs of civil liberty. • The practical benetits of it were well !mann, Sod idesiscrissed say A poet AS an inestimable gem which" pa. Vials alionfld ettard with a miser's roue." W . th the same itaxiety he celled ripen the alerting to di•feitil the constitution. He.rejoiced in *apportion; the petition, which he hoped would be tinanimously agreed toond strastgls reiminreended the constant raising of the voice ut the people in the Court!' as In Parliament, without Which the Haiteas Cot pus might be bid adien to tOr ever. said Holland said, he came to the meeting because he hoofs the voice or the people would when openly, and man. folly used, have an eliect more or less noon Parliament. This Bill was. however, inertly an extent ofarbitiary who rity, !fit meant any thing, it meant encooraernient to spies and informer' ; and A country oenductect by spies and in formers was be She last stage of degtadation.—lt was not morgue that floured* breathed the free air : they most do sit ssidsant fear. Enjoyment by fatronr anti grace was not en joyment tar Eaglishrisen.—He rejoiced to see, what etileed ne 'erected to see, that the meeting was conducted on so or derly and respectable a principle, as to give no opportunity VI Midst Ts to reprehend the miniver any more than the as hire o r else diae i mmon. He concluded wills again decks§ lug, t'u the people should persevere in their applicatious to Plrliament. th e k e y. Mr. Driver raid, the Art was not directed *email traitors, but ;against the tiouulesolue, who opened their mouths too %itt'raieeis•Bnrdett said, the prerogatives of the Crown coulallse only Heti-wary, inaesmieh as they Supported the fiber. ties (tithe people ; but the power exercised etas naked, bare, bled shameless. tyraany—liceessary perhaps for the =time. native of a corrupt administration, but decidedly opposite to every principle of justice and huoisatitly. The Art went to p sue withont giving the object of punishment a bearing ; and it was already nearly declared Hiatt it would be followed up by a Rill of indemnity. 'file Bible was a book probably well Yanwa by the meeting, but the framers of the Bill bore twilit testimony of respect to the sacred 14.111111 e. It was per haps. lapels their lip-, but it was out iii their hearts, nor was It to ter seats in their aetions.—lii the book of Isaiah, there was a , lescriptimi of a ;muerte' oppressor, in which it was em phatically said, that treaty poinchnieut was dealt upon him, " because he opened trot the doors of prisuaers."—The peo of England asked that the doors of the prisoners should be thrown opts, and that those within sitotild not be debarred all pt‘eitste means ,making their delesier. But what aile• gnate idea run ei be eutertained of the situation of eider inlets persons who had sin hope of being brought before Hoar . .confitry fur a kcal delitentstee I The Honourable Bari/met concluded by saying, that he cuncurted in the peti. Lion mostkrearid y. Mr. Bentley spoke in favour of the petition. Mr.' !Mellish disapproved of the !mutton, upon the ground that 'Acre waisted thee greatest nereesity fur the measure be. fore Parliament. Mr. liyag Approved of the petition, which was agreed to by the meeting. Tlx meeting then separated. We are extremely happy to learn from undoubted anthority,..that the iron trade in (ilamorganshire and Brceonshire has rapidly increased to such an extent, that the works cannot execute the orders now on hand with the expedition required by the purchasers; and that additiOnel foram-vs are erecting in amsequence. The iron trade of Staffordshire; &c. is also greutly improved. Accounts from all parts of the country describe the cnixts of the fine weather upon vegeuttion, as most delightful. Never did the g rowin g crops appear to flourish mare kindly, or promise more abundantly ; as the extreme heat has succeeded to, and been inter mingled with, refreshing showers.
