out showing a better way, namely the proper way. And her also, as well as in the Prayer of the Petition, is pointed out our Constitutional remedy for th grievance of which we complain. No, men, we do not desire to shrink from any burd of which a Commons House, really chosen 1 ruly and equally representing the nation, shall dec ere the necessity. We cannot admit of the ,nonce of such a necessity, on the showing of men iteerestecl in pretending it ; and who will do all they can to create it. No; an assurance of such neces sity we can take from none but real representatives ; end even that, after convincing proofs of their bite ity, by potting an end to all useless expellee, to all ussmerlted stipends, and to all foreign connection, intrigues, and projects, dangerous to the repose, and , no way contributing to the good of England.— Neither could we place confidence in any man, who should not reduce to dimensions perfectly harmless, a standing army, which in peace has no utility what- e,ver, except in relation to our foreign possessions. —0:1 so reduced a scale, indeed, I am at a loss to conceive how, in the beggared state of our finances, it is to he supported. But, with regard to a stand ing army, there are other most serious considera tions. Even David Hume, the apologist for Stuart tvransly, pronounces this same standing army to be " a moltal distemder iu the Constitution of which it must inevitably perish."—Essays 11. 376. Shall we. then, like the drunkard or the glutton, feed this ili ,, ernper to our certain destruction 2 The ca. tastropl e can only be averted to the limitation I have suggested, of a mere sufficiency for foreign services. A standing army at home is abhorrent to the very nature of freedom. It is a novelty of very modern introductiou. This introduction began in treachery, and unless the treachery be effectually guarded against, it can end iu nothing but slavery under a military despotism. Every interference of the mill t-sry, in the pretended support of the Magistrate, is nay act of treason against the law and consti tution of England ; which, as Blackstone justly re marks, " know no such state as that of a perpetual standing soldier."—Com. I. 408. Agreeably to corn mon sense, the English Constitution entrusts. the de- ' fence of liberty to the arms of freemen alone; the tranquillity of society to those most interested in its preservation ; and the protection of property to those who possess it. On the contrary, the advocates for a standing army tell us, that slaves are the most proper guardians of freedom: that men who have ex changed the social state, under the law and the Civil Magistrate, for a military barrack, and discipline by the cat-of-nine-tails, acre the fittest persons to pre- I serve ". social order;" and that mercenary soldiers, without property, are the most suitable defenders of , our estates. 1 repeat it, Gentlemen, that a standing army, as a regular part of our Govetnment, began in-treachery ; a proof of which will be found. in ' an admirable book, written by the present Prime Minister's father; but before he was a placeman. There it is shown, how the martial branch of our Constitution,—the cheapest and best defence of a na tion, that human wisdom ever produced—was treas. cherously and systematically undermined, and that most expensive, as well as most fatal instrument of despotism*, a standing army, introduced. I speak that which I know: and if, Gentlemen, you desire liberty, with an exemption from unnecessary tax ation, you must desire that the army shall not consist • of one soldier more than sufficient for your foreign services ; and that no Minister, nor Magistrate, shall dare, at the peril of bis head, ever to employ a sol dier in keeping the peace, or in executing the law.— But, with reference to this, or to any other object, on account of which you are now exposed to an lin. I constitutional Taxation, your Alpha and Omega, your first thooesst and your last, ought to be,l to obtain a radical Reform in our Representation. i —Here let us take our stand ; if indeed we mean net to be crouching camels—mere beasts of bur den—but freemen, here we must take our stand. And I trust in God—in that God who created all men equal ; who gave them liberty for their common inheritance; and who endowed them with reason and courage to assert that liberty ; that here the whole People of England will also, take their stand. That Creator, as a few words will prove to you, • hatls indeed made the preservation of public liberty, whic:s essential to a people's happiness on earth, the express duty of every. man. Is not the whole of our religion comprehended iu these two precepts : " '('hon shalt love thy God with all thy mind ; thy neighbour as thyself ?" Who is our neighbour, if not every man who lives in the same land, and ander the sat e laws with ourselves?—ls it not, therefore, apparent, that true patriotism is a vital part of true religion ? For what is patriotism, but actively to promote the • good of our neigh bours on the widest scale, that of the whole nation ? Alas, Gentlemen, when we reflect on the gross, the brutish neglect of this duty ; which, in addition to all its private follies and vices, bath so long ills - your bane and, Its antidote; with you lease I will move the itesolittions I hug to,effer.

Mr. BENTLEY seconded the Resolutions, enforcing, in a peculiar manner, the shameful system of delusion which had, from time to time, been practised by the Ministers of this country upon the public, repre senting our finances as in a state of the utmost pros perity, while we were, in fact, precipitating into that situation of ruin in which the termination of the The thanks of the Meeting were thea unanimously voted to the Sheriff, for their impartial ma polite con duct. • The thanks of the Meeting were also unaeimonsly voted to George Byng, Esq. one of the County Re presentatives, for his general *conduct in Perlin meta, and for his support to the Resolutions of this day.

The Learned Counsel argued, that ail the sales of this trust, properly, were illegal and voidable in equity. After all the evidence and deeds were given in on the part of both parties, Mr. FONSLANQUE, for the Defendant, as leading Counsel, made an able statement against the charges • when, at half past four o'clock, His Ramona desired Sir S. Romilly to defer la reply on this important cause. The reply and judg• ment were postponed. This cause occupied most part of the day. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Fin. 16. BOND V. VAUGHAN. The Plaintiff, a wine merchant, brought his action against the Defendant, a tailor, to recover 1491. fen a pipe of wine. The Defendant was introduced to the Plaintiff by a Mr. Beeby, with whom he went to the Plaintiff's cellars, where he tasted and selected a pipe of wine, which was sent home to the Defendant. At the expiration of the usual credit, the Plaintiff sent in his bill, of which no notice was taken, and therefore, some time after, he sent a second bill to which the Defendant answered, he did not owe the Plaintiff any thing, for he bad bought the wine of Mr. Beeby, who was i►debted to him the sum of 701, which he meant to set off in part of payment. Th• Plaintiff finding thus a difficulty in getting his money, brought the present action, and a number of witnesses , were examined on both sides. From the Plaintiff's, books it appeared, that the credit had been given to. the Defendant from the commencement of the trims, action; and under the circumstances of the case the Jury returned a verdict for the Plaintiff.—Da.. magas 1491.

The Resolutions were than put and agreed to • es *tante, that such woman has committed adultery, or was also a draft of a Petition to Parliament, founded 1 that en unmarried woman has . had a bastard." In on the Resolutions. that case the Defendant's Counsel objected at the trial, that the Plaintiff ought not to recover, because it was a wager upon a question tending to introduce indecent evidence: to this it was answered, that the objection was upon the record, and Lord Mansfield being of that opinion, overruled 'the objection; but afterwards, when the ease came before the whole Court in arrest of judgment, his Lordship said he eas •sorry that the answer given .to the objection made at the trial " that it appeared upon the re cord" had been so hastily given way to by , him; for though the indecency of evidence is no objection to its being received where it is necessary to the deci sion of a civil or criminal right, yet the witnesses should have been told that they might refuse to give evidence in a case, where two men, by laying a wager concerning a third person, would compel his physi cians, relations, and servants, to disclose what they • knew relative to the subject of the wager. The Learned Serjeant added, that the subject of the pre sent wager, Joanna Southcott, was a single woman. Mr. Serjeant BEST answered that Lord Mansfield, in the very case cited, said 4 6 a 'wager whether the! next child shall be a boy Ana gial hurt, no t i me:' and he should be able to prote;' thee the Defendant had, in one of his public lectotwe, declared that Jo anna Sotithcott was to be married by prosy, that the' child might not be born a bastard. -The Lord - Chief:Justice (Gifts) said, his difli colty was not whether the present action .was. main taitiable, bat whether any Judge had on that account refused tetry a cause. Mr. Serjeant Denote and Mr. COSIYA,* for the Defendant, instanced Lord Loughborough, who in an action upon a wager " whether there are more ways than sit of nicking seven on the dice, allowing seven to be the main and eleven a nick to seven," ordered the cause to be struck out of the Paper ; and the whole Court of Common Pleas afterwards refused leave to restore it (I IL 8.43); and Lord Ellenbolough, who .refused to try an option• on a wager op a point of law is which theparties have no interest, and the whole Court of , King's Bench afterwards agreed in the propriety of such refusal CZ Campb. 408).
