PUBLIC MBSTI4YCS tiT lIERBPORD. MOH. .4100TH. -..i..- [►RON THE PRISTOID 111111tCCRY, DEC. 22.) As intimately connected with the deeply interest lag subject of the presses state of the country, the de premiss sf the whets, and their effects au the pub- Ile, and on theowuers and (occupiers of land, we aro happy to have it in our power to present our readers with the following additional account, which was ex 'Wed last week by the great press of local informa tion, of the late public meetings at Hereford, Mos , mouth, scene which has presented itself this day is the happy consequence. From the courage and perseverance displayed by Mr. Hume in the last Session of Parlia ment, in his endeavours to lessen the public burden in a manner which has been more than once this day explained, I am emboldened to hope that ha will in the ensuing Session pursue the same glorious coarse ' of which he has made such a happy beginning ; aid than he will prove himself an honest guardian of the public purse, by refusing to vote sway the public money to individuals or bodies of men. Bet, Gentle men, while we puhlfely render to Mr. Hume that tri bute of our gratitude to which 1 believe him to be justly entitled, I cannot but lauseot that we have been compelled to go so far north 4114 &iota to render snob signal *mires to his esetatry. I rrpeat again, that 1 feel regret in all its bitterness that a similar in stance of devotion of time and talents had not ma nifested itself to the benefit of the nation is the con duct of the members for this my native county, aid particularly of that member who was returned to Par liament by Me people. I may, and I dare say I shall, he told that all members are not equal to engaging in the arduous undertaking performed by Mr. Hume. am - well aware that all men do not possess an equal share of ability, or the same advantages of education, •r the same disposition to diligence. Moderate is. lents, however, will do wonders; but, Gentlemen, without reference to talents, there is one thing which all ever engin to posses in an equal degree, and that is ineexillle integrity; and, in my bumble opinion. any member of Parliament, to be entitled to the ap pellation of an honest man, mast faithfully represent his Constituents, and, by doing strict justice in the House of Commons between the rulers and the ruled, discharge his duty to the public at large. - TRAVELLING TO DOVER, DE IL, ATE.

' manner it had been received, together self-conviction that a subject of higher Interest or of more pressing import ance could not occupy the attention of tee meeting, induced him to trespass again on their time. Not to enter then into that full consideration of the question which its magnitude imperiously required, bet merely to state his conviction, that when gentlemen abaracterise such a reduction in the interest or capital of dm public debt as would leave the public creditor a va les equal to that he subscribed, as being a violation of rune faith, he thought such persons would do well to look to that most unprincipled. and then unprecedented breach of faith of which Ministers were guilty, when, by manila their majorities in Parliament, they passed an Act to justify and authorise the Bank of England to refuse payment of their promissory notes;—and that still greater one, committed under the name of Mr. Peel's Act, for the resumption of Cash-payments, by which, after property bad been changed, and moulded, and transformed under a depreciated paper-currency for merollhan twenty years, they arbitrarily decreed that cashiskyments should be resumed, without first endea vostnlig to lessen the enormous injustice their system he been guilty towards either the public or the private debtor; or attempting such measures as would give the country a chance of being able to meet its engagements in standard coin. The effects of these measures were so clearly pourtrayed in certain Resolutions of the Gentle men and Yeomanry of Worcestershire, that he should add nothing more to the subject at present than to read those Resolutions to the meeting. Mr. Moggridge then read the following Resolations:— Resolved unanimously,—That the Committee of the House of Commons, to which the Agricultural Petitions were referred, has admitted the existence of the evils complained ef to have been fully proved. - That while the Committee thus admits the evil, it denies the efficacy of and the propriety of granting, the remedy sought for in the Petitions; and it more than insinuates that the change in the value of the currency, brought about by the Act of the 59th George 111. com monly called Mr. Peel's Bill, is the principal cause of the Agricultural distress, and at the same time clearly expresses an opinion that the prices of produce and labour, and consequently rents, will go hark to the level from which the Paper Currency raised them. That this Meeting is of opinion that the prices of produce and labour, and also rents, became generally diosibled during the existence of a depreciated Paper Currency; that the increased taxation of the Country .wins founded upon such deeMed prices, and that the great bulk of the National Debt, and of all private debts Ind obligations, was contracted in property and labour measured in these doshled prices. That the Committee, contemplating the reduction of prices, ruinous as it has already been to thousands, and overwhelming as it must ultimately prove to all, at tempts to justify it on the grouad of rigidly adhering to good faith, a principle which this meeting at once recognizes; but this meeting is at a loss to understand how it consati with good faith, that the property of the landowner and eehivator, and the prices of produce and labour, should bahrongbt back from the level to which they ad beep raised by a delreciatell Paper Currency to the ancient bullion staiklart4 while the charges to the Pond bolder. the Si tiecu rise, and the Placentae, contracted in a similar Paper Currency, OM exempted from a similar redaction. That it appears to this meeting, that sot only will good faith be violated, by attemptiog, seder such eir cumstauces and is so partial a manner, to return to the .`~ I THE LATE STORMS. -0.-- The weather during the past week has been very tempestuous. The wind throughout the greater part of Thursday night and Friday morning blew a com plete hurricane; the parapets of three houses in Ocoee street fell with a tremendous crash ; the wall erected in front of the new church, Junes-street, was blown down ; also a stack of chimnies at the back of Mil sem-street. On Saturday evening the rain descended in torrents, accompanied with thunder and lightning, and it did not cease until daybreak on Suede) , morn ing; the immense fall of rain caused the river to overflow its banks, and by Sunday afternoon the ground, called Dolemead and•Ozmead, between Caro line-buildings and the River, a great portion of whirl) has recently been covered with small tenement•, pre seated one wide expanse of water, and the inhabitants of the cottages were obliged to seek shelter in the upper apartments and upon the house-tops, whence many were rescued by boats. The flood Las since con siderably abated, although the low grounds in the ri cinity are still inundated. Considerable damage 114% been sustained, particularly by that class who can ill support the loss. The flood at Fronts, on Sunday morning, occasioned by the tremendous storm of the preceding night, was higher than any that has been known in that town for nearly sixty years. The de mage sustained amounts to several thousand pounds. Fourteen sheep and three cows were lost ma Monday. at Road, in consequence of the flood. There was to day a heavy fall Of snow on Mendip. The cellars of great part of the houses in Wells were inundated en Saturday, from the great fall of rain. During the ►iolent gale of Thursday night, the malt-bopse of Mr. Beam, on Steeple-Asbtoa Common, was blown down, and the roof carried oft. In the same gale a wall at Melkshass Spa was blown down ; mush other damage was done in the neighbourhood. as windows blown in, trees torn up. &c.—(BatA C►ironicle.) Almost every evening during last week, storms of thunder and lightning. *With perfect hurricanes of wind and rein, have visited this city, and have been equally prevalent in every part of dm kingdom. In this vicinity the Wye and the Legs having overflowed their banks, the floods rendered the reads impassable i 6 many parts of the country. and delayed the mails and coaches beyond their anal period of arrival.— We have beard of several outhouses, rick', being injured by the wind. which ales levelled many el she stately ornaments of the forests and orchards lo.dif ferent situations.—(Gleacesfer Jounce) .
