The following extraordinary Address has appeared in fie daily Papers : TO 'PIL E, ELECTOR~ O F W EST NI INSTEP. GENTLEMEN—in addlessing so enlightened a portion of thecommue nity as the Electors of the great Metropolloe. City of Westminster, it would ili become me to adopt the Wet nied ,tyle of congratulation and profession listed on occasions like the le esein. I cannot congra tulate the People on the opeortimity eirrded them for redressing their manifold grievances, by a due exereise of Ih eir constitutional right, to appoint th_ir Reoreseetatives i Parliareelit, w' II knowing, ;tett that too they know full well who cause this clieating appearance of en Election to tike place. that no such o pportunity is, in p o i n t of fact. or is intended to be, atreded the p2ople. You, Gentlemen, are too well intormed of the real cendi•sion of your Country, not to regard such language as deceptions, and to treat it with merited contempt. Nei ther can I, with truth, profess that I steel he highly, or at all grati fied, by being returned a Member of an Assembly where corruption is acknowledged to be as " notorious as the sun at noon day," and where " practices which would have made our forefathers startle with indig nation i I utter oblivion of every former maxith anti feeling of Parlia mem," have been impudently avowed, and shamelessly jusCtieti. This %as brought us Into a situation almost impossible, within tha limits of an advertisement, to depier. Nine hundred millions of debt ; inland fortresses under the name of barracks; au army of aid other foreign merc2neres ; an army of spies and int - miners ; et` Tax and Excise Agents ; an Inquisition of private properi v ; a pi lau _ torn for a King ; a degraded Aristocracy ; an oppressed - v e opi e; 4 confiding Parliament ; irresponsible Ministers ; a corrui'r and nei e e e datel Press ; pension ed justices ; packed Juries ; vague aid sanguin ary laws, sometimes shamefully relaxed, at other times violently stretched beyond their tone ; which, together with a host of failures of foreign Expedition, and the present crushing but then of •faxation, are some of the bitter frUits of corruption in the House of Commone. A House of Commons. the Members of which elk!, agreeably to a re turn laid before it in 1808, put into their DWI: pockets 178,9941. a-year in sinecures, salaries, and oense•ns, besides their Staff A ppotntment s, and their Commissions, and besides the money teeei yeti by their Wives and other Relations. tact, the whole of the evil arises here. Those who vote the money a'e, some way or other, interested in the expenditure of it. The small number of Independent Men have no weight at all. Gentlemen, it is often affirmed, that the savings in cur power to make front Sinecures anti Pensions, would afford no relief to the Peo ple ; let us take a few out of numerous instances. The House of Commons itself, in sheer Places and Pensions, swallows as much as wooed give fifty shillings a-year to 71,224 families. Would this be no thing ? Would it not be telt by the People ? Lord Arden, brother to the late Minister, with reversion to the late Minister himself, re ceives front his Sinecures 38,.e711. a-year. This is the exact sum stated. But it is said, that he has besides immense sums arising from interest. Here is support all the year round, at twelve shillings a week for more than one thousand Lamilies. The same may be said for 635
