Oue of the r teat est of our rights—rights expressly recognised when the t home of these realms was settled on the present august family—the right to petition the K ng, has been violated, and by memo tht most od ous. Blood has been shed, bodies have heat mangled, lives have been destroyed she very principle on which is formed and founded the title of Your 'Royal Highness's illustrious House to the free crown of the kingdom. is brought to question and endangered by the outrages a. Mauche•tet. 'the Bill in Rights declares that it is the right of the subject to petit on the King;'' and it is indisputable. that upon the people's right to assemble publicly, and by petition to interfere in the administration of their alla-rs is mainly depending all the rest of our constitu tional li,erties. We believe this right of popular assemblage and petition ing. to be amongst the earliest. as it certainly Is the most im portant of our priviLges The preservation of it, in al I the fulness of perfection. is essential to our existence as a nation of freemen. It has descended to us from our forefathers, is recognised in the GI eat Charter of our liberties; and we hold it to be amongst the most sacred of our duties to trans. mit it to posterity uninjured and entire Confiding in the natural mildness and generosity of Your Royal Highness's disposition ; relying also on the efficacy of those hberal and beneficent principles of government wh;ch, imbibed in early life cannot fa:l to be deeply rooted in the heart of Your Royal Highness, we persuade ourselves that measures will at once be taken fur holding 2 solemn inquest into the causes and circumstances of the cruel conduct of the Magistrates at Manchester, on the tub day of August That so this gross and wanton violation of the rights and liberties of the r.eople may not be allowed to pass into an established precedent; and the several authors. actors and abettors of th a sanguinary military tumult and execution, may be brought to condign punishment. And we deem this measui e to have been rendared absolutely necessary, because we have observed with astonishment and regret, that—i.ob tained no doubt by false and wicked misrepresentations of the real nature aid character of these proceedings—the di stitiguished honour of Your Royal Highness's approbation has been bestowed on acts which the force of truth compels us to describe as illegal and unprovoked; disgraceful to the national character, and repugnant to all the feelings tdhu inanity. Yielding to none of His Majesty's subjects in dutiful and affectionate attachment to Your Royal Highness's illustrious House and Person ; and sincerely and equally devoted to the preservation of the Constitutional Rights and I.iberties of the People, we venture humbly•und dutifully to petition your Royal Highness to displace. for ever, from your Royal person and Councils, those equally weak and violent Ministers who have presumed on this occasion to connect your Hord Highness's noble nature with the Massacre at Manchester; and in whose general ma anTIS end measures of Government we have long ceased to perceive the faintest traces of the mild qualities and attributes of F.nglish Law. The SLIMY! eeccr (Mr. FOWA 21) TAYLOR) wended the Address He examined at some length the proceedings at Manchester, and contended that the Meeting of the IGtli August, was as legally assembled as that he was addressitig. He then called on the people, if they venerated the lows and constitution of their country,to express their decided disap probati•m and abhorrence of this and all other attempts to viol.tte and infringe them. The Adores: was unanimously carried, and ordered to be presented by the Mayor and the Members for the City. R. 11 Gusrrrr, Esq. said, that it gave him sincere plea- sure to obey this request of his constituents. lle felt most keenly this atrocious attack on the people's rights, and he reprobated in still stronger terms the conduct of Ministers, in darm: to use the Prince's name as sanctioning the now. der of his subjects. lie then moved the following Remo R.

St n employed by . the public spirited Gentlemen Teen of this town to owoperate professionally with ‘14,1% Harmer and Pearson. in endeavouring to bring the perpetrators of the late atrocities at Manchester to condign punishment, I think it proper w address you en the subject of tic letter lately published by my colleague, Mr. Pearson. That part of the press which manifests a disp osition to palliate the crimes and to plead for the criminals connected with the "" , at St. Peter's-field. affects, I perceive, to doubt the accuracy of Mr. Pennon's state ment. Therefore 1 feel it a duty which I owe to truth, to justice, and to my cooing. to declare, through your respectable Juurual, my knowledge of this important transaction. For some time previous to Mr. Pearson's arrival at Manches ter, I was actively engaged in collecting facts and arran,ging deuce, with a view to the pia:minion of the real authors and principal actors on that melancholy occasion, which has tilled England with horror. Hence lam in possession of such infor mation as authorises me to speak with confidence on this subject; and I have no hesitation in declaring, that Mt. Pearson 's state ment is perfectly well founded. That this Gentleman, indeed, instead of dealing in exaggeration, as appears to be imputed, has rather understated the case, will. I am convinced, be fully de. ?nominated upon the first trial or investigation that atiluds op portunity fur adducing the evidence that has come to our know. ledge, even since the letter alluded to was published. What feelings then can belong to the writers, who being, I must sup. pose, totally ignorant of the fects, presume to pro p unfounded assertions and overstrained animadversions. rh evidently tend, if they are nut deliberately designed. to indispose good men to that system of exertion which is indispeno nwessars in this case to vindicate the injured laws of talismanic and England—to punish the perpetrators and abettors of ••••• But I will once tell those writers who seem to• sympathise only with —who would bury the victuals of •• ****** in oblivion, try proscribing all who dare even to mourn their fate— that if any member of the press who has reprobated, or who may have the virtue to reprobate, the cowardly blued-shedders of Manchester, should be indicted fur a libel. and have. wily the common courage and capacity to detail the facts with which I could famish lino, the presumptuous complain .nt would be dri ven from Court with the universal and unmixed abhorrence of the Jery, the Judge. and the whole people of England. I have only hi add. that the task which I have uadertaken to perform is in no degree under the Mine:ice, or connected with the views of any political party, but suggested by the feelings ot,s 7 benuvilleit: body of Genttnnten. who are naturally and linulahly4titittele seek redress for the wanton exercise of kuoitary via" again* an unarmed. untfending asstoublve •tit new, womene•and;clid. dren.—l aim.
