That every attempt to disperse by toter such An asseniWy (as long a► the ;mums met together conduct themselves petite— ably. and no overt act of riot is curumitted)cannot be too stiongly reprobated. 3. That it appears to us, that the magistrates of Manchester did, on the 16th of August lasi,autliorize the 'unitary to disperse by force a meting not proved to be illegal, without *nth:tent ground to justify so harsh a measure. and even xithout having given due notice of their intention; and that, moreover, the military appear to have carried their orders into effect without displaying that moderation and lenity which should always be entrcised on the most legitimate of such occasions. 4. That, although every friend to rod lib ray might cordially deprecate the danger of licentious tumult. yet it ought never to be forgotten. that an attack up•xr our constitutional tights, under the mask of attachunnt to ordet and government, is, w say the least of it, equally dangerous. S. That we observe with deep concern, that his ;Majesty's Mi. nisters have so precipitately given the weighty sancuon of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent's approbation to measures of so dubious& character; and we deeply deplore the advice iecently given to his Royal Ilighnes, to dismiss from the Lisutentinry of the West Riding of York a Noblenrui standing jii thy high in the estimation of his fellu w -country /IWO, taiinent for his virtues, his loyalty, and patriotism, solely upon the ground of his having concurred with the county of York in petitioning the Throne for inquiry into matters so deeply interesung both to the p,:ople and lb.: Prince. 5. 111 is, therefore, resolved, that a petition be presented to his Ro.al Highness the Poinee Itegeat. must earnestly requesting him to recommend to the iu.onshate CptiNitleaittioll of Vartianteut the necessity of imaitutirig are areurate and solemn inquiry into the real state of those unfortunate transaction. which limo:excited fur some weeks pwit, and 14111 continue to excite, an alarming de gree of ferment in the public mind. s T.
