HUN r." " Lord Vinson* &dimwit. Secretary of Nate, Howe Ltrwanseat." That was the answer, ell the answer, I could ob. lain from him. Lord Sidewalk would not present the Westminster Remonstrance, because it was no toriously untrue; be would not present the Men cheater Remonstrance, because he did not know why. —(Applause.)—lle would not present she Stockport Remonstrance, for the vet, same reason, which was jest on reason at all. What, however, did he do ? Why, at the very nest Meeting of the people et Stock port he sent down his tools to 'Twinged Sir Chiles ‘Volsrley and Mr. Harrison. At this moment a considerable trestle took place. which was occasioned by the arrival of Brown and Wontner, the City Marshals, with a posse of thirty constables, to arrest Mr. Harrison. On their getting into the waggon, Mr. Hunt turned to Brown and said, " If you want me, I'll go with you." Brown 'aid, " No, no; 1 don't want you, but Mr. Har rison." Mr. Harrison was then taken sway by the constables, without soy resistance on his part or on that of Use multitude. Mr. Hunt, then, turning to his audience, who seemed surprised et what was pass ing in ihe cart, explained to them the object of the constables. A few voices mermared, " They shan't take hew;" on which Mr. Hunt requested them to tired to him and oot commit a breach of the pen", as that was most assioally desired by their ear miss; he begged them to let him go cpsietly if the officers attempted to elevate a warrant on himself. If they apprehend me, said he, sod I know that they have spies here ready to awes any thing, I em ready with bail, and will try the question with them. Lel them have law if they wish it; 111 glee them enough of it before they have done with me. Let them subpoena all of yoe here, and then, thoegh they may get•three villains to swear away my life, I shall not be afraid when I have 30,000 other witnesses to contradict them. If only 30 of you should come day by day, the trial will last for three years.—(A laugh.)—l will not trust to any Coun sellor Cross to betray me, I will plead my own cause ; end 'among the many honourable men con nected with the Press, whom I see here, I have no doubt that there is not one who would retest) to sop. port me by his testimony if it were required. I call upon them to take down fairly what I may say ; and if there be any villain of a spy here, I Crest they will attend to my words, and give notitiog bet the troth. If I hay done any thine against the law, let me be punished by the law. Will you, or will you not, be My witnesses ?—(Cries of " all," from eke crowd)—Well, then, let every man amongst you, when be reeds the proceedings of this day in the P a .l pets of to-morrow, take down memorandoms of what appears to him to base been said, and what sp. peers not to base been said, In order that he may be able le swear on a. future occasion as to the correct ness of the Newspaper,. Mr. WALI*II (not Mr. P. Walker), at the desire of Mr. Hoot, then read the Remonstrance agreed to et a Meeting in Palace.yerd, on the Bth of Septem ber,. 1818, and proposed that it should be again . . adopted. Mr. Him or d, that if it was adopted by this Meittiost he should take care to have it pot into (be bands o f Prince Regent himself.—(App/arse. ) Dr. Wallow commented on the conduct of Lord' Sidmouth with regard to this Remonstrance, and was sorry that any Minister of the Cabinet shoeld be so imprudent as to withhold from his Royal Highness any paper likely to enlighten his mind, or Wend the Liberty of the People. The Doctor concluded by seconding the Remonstrance. Mr. Hues felt no difficulty in submitting the Re monstrance to the consideration of the Meeting. He was convinced that there was no harm in it, as it had been twice in Lord Sidmooth's heads, sod had been twice returned. If there had hems any thing in it disrespectful to the Prince Regent, be should have been the last person to have offered to present it to his Royal Highness. If there had been any untruth. reflecting upon Ministers, he thought that be shookd have been told of it; soli( there was any thing ins. proper or seditious its it, Lied Sidmouth would have told him of it, unless, indeed, he was as great a spy as Oliver himself. He theo pet the Resolution that this Remonstreoce be agreed to, which was carried unanimously. Dr. WATSON bad heard the Remonstrance read. Whether it would get into the hands of the Prince Regent was the question. The principles for which they were then contending, bad been upheld by men of the first consideration in the country; but these men had apostatised like the vile apostate Pitt. They bad, however, got amongst he a man who would never forsake them—be meant their Worthy Chairman : that Gentleman had now been 15 years' before them, and had never flinched from his dirty fora single moment. He bad done more than this— he bad often bravest op to the standard of liberty, those who were doubting what lioe they should take is the politics of their country. He had brought ep that great character, Mr. Cobbett, and also the venerable Major, who bad for a moment swerved from the doctrine of Universal Suffrage. He (Slr. Hent) bad been reprover], slandered, and loaded with abase, for doing his duty : bet so long as they supported him, he would never prove a backslider. The Members of Parliament had se. pirated without passing a single Act to relieve . . the distresses of the cnossiry. Woold they let gn i/the.' Session posy sway without presenting s strong Restonstssnee? No less than 3,000,0001. of lases had been imposed in the filet Seasion of thane. Par liament, mod their whole weight fell on the isadue ttioss labourer and artilan. The Lively of London ►ed recently regained their Lord Mayor to hold a Common fail for the conflagration of their riet, antes. His Lordship had (erased io comply, ■nJ the Livery bad not the spirit to force open the doors lf their own hall. They would, however, now spe that their fellow-countrymen were determined to assembl., and openly discos, their grievances and their rights. It was a most importing subjert or consideration, to attach where it was doe, the blame of standing be. tween the Throne and the Petitions of the P eo ple._ The Minister oho had so acted hat' violated his duly, and it was on this persuasion tbst he was about to move a vote of misuse on Lord Sitimooth. Mr. Watson concluded by sehmitting a Resolution to this effect.—(lpplause.) Mr. Wst . a►a seconded the motion. Mr. Ilene pet the question, observing at theism, time, !halite had no doubt it would be carried one. nionoesly, and prove highly gratifying to the Noble Lord.—(d laugh ) The question was immediately carried in the affirm , alive. Mr. Hurr then informed the Meeting, that he un derstood it to be the Intention of som. Gentleman to propose to them a vote of thanks to the Lord Mayor of London, for his great anxiety in affording protec tion to them that day, and he trusted that this motion would he successful. As he was now addressing them, he would beg leave In add, that he had rec►ived two letters from individuals, who had been compelled by circumstances to be absent oo this occasion. The one was from Mr. Malmer, of Winchester, sod the other from Mr. Johnstone, of Manchester. Mr. Johnstone was a worthy and excellent man, whom nothing bat a family misfortune had presented from attending. His letter of moss would well deserve their attention, and would be read to them by a Mem ber of the Committee which had called the present Meeting. They would there find it stated, that although his body was necessarily absent, his whole anal was with them. Mr. Harrison had already been am.mgst them, and if be was now under the care of the Lord Mayor, it was, however, some gratification to kbow that it was a bailable offence. Mr. Harrison was safe, and would soon return to them. His hope, however / wary that they would suffer sighing to irri tete them—that they would bear mach before they attempted to retaliate. and avoid, if possible, every breach of the pone. Mr. Johns one's letter was thee read : it represented that the Reformers io the North contemplated with feelings of ecstacy the popular Meetings io London, in common with which they felt the most anaioos desire to shake off an odious and galling despotism. Mr. WALata then pot the Resolutioo, etpressing grateful thanks to the Right lion. John Atkins, Lord Mayor of London, for the onasual degree of satiety manifested by him for their protection, and for the doe sepport which 'he had furnished to the peaceful manner in which their proceedings were coo. darted, thereby affording a coovincing proof that he was not insensible to the last admooition which be had received from the Commoo-hall. Dr. Wasson wended this motion, and contrasted the conduct of the present Lord Mayor with that of Sir William Wa!worth, who, in the time of that honest man, Wat Tyler, had not attempted to pre. vent the People from assembling in these very fields. Mr. Watson, after having alluded to the cause of , %Vat Tyler'. insurrection, remarked that it afforded @efficient evidence that a spirit of morality was in herent is every British heart ; and showed, that without cafes of religion or systems invented by de signing men, the natural principles of justice were prevalent in the !semen mind. He doubted not bat the same spontaneous feeling would evince itself if a similar necessity should arise. He thought the Lind Mayor bad envied himself very meritoriously to pre serve the pease, and its preservation being one of their chief objects, be cordially seconded the motion. Mr. HUNT again rose and said, he did not think that the author of the Resolution had ever calculated that tile Doctor would otter what he had said with a grave face. He had now simply to pat to them whe ther they were sincerely of opinion that the present Lord Mayor of London was entitled to their grateful thanks.—( Lord troffings and ho ings ) The motion was then negatived, and Mr. Hoot observed, that it should he his care to apprise his Lordship that the Resolution of thinks to him was carried unanimously in the negative.—(A faugh.)— Ile held a paper in his hand which had been drawn op by some friends of the People, and which coo- Wined an Addicts to their fellow•Sobjects in lrelaud. As it was, however, of great length, be would sub mit to them whether it was their plum(' to have it read. (The sense of the creed appeared evidently against the reading.) Ile could then swore them, that it would be published, and they enabled to read it at a cheap rate. A subscription had been entered Into by a body of Gentlemen for this purpose. They did not think proper to appear that day, because, to use their own language, they did not thick the time was yet come. The Address would, nevertheless, be printed, and Ireland inundated •ith copies of it. 1 The Address will be found io another collate° of this day's pablication. Mr. GAIT nest presented himself, and Imam by complaining of an anonymous letter addressed to the Editor of e Newspaper, in which his character was attacked on the ground of aomethiog which he bad said at the last Meeting In Palace-yard. 110 1 now challenged this duoble.faced Janes to come forward ; lie was ready to meet his accuser in soy way that might become a citizen or a Gentleman. He bad been provoked into this digression, bet to advert to more public considerations, what symptom of Re form, or sincere intention of effecting any, bad been exhibited by the present Parliament ? In the last, the very moderate measure of a return to Triennial Parliaments bad met with no support when 'proposed - - by Sir Robert heron. Moderate Reform was, there- • fere, a mere insinuation and pretence. Oita Member, be believed his name to be Darssan, had ob J, that the loner wile's of society were ton ignorant and eel• gar to understand the mysteries of Government They showed *hemutre•, however, to be quite capable of , conducting and managing their own interests ; and it would be well if the affairs of /he nation were con.' ducted as judiciously. Many of them, no doubt, belonged to Benefit Societies; and what steward of any such Society would have voted away its mono), its otJer to induce a son to visit a sick father, or in the purchase of snui•boses to present to foreigners ? With regard to their rights, his opinion was, that no thing shun of (.; 41 i I Suffrage should satisfy them. Some persons thole& that the extension of it to all householders might to be adopted; bet many bosses were divided into separate tenements.' When the) were wanted fur the ranks of the army, or for manning the slaty, their services were considered in• dispensable; and he would advise them to regard the principle of Universal Suffrage to be Neatly due, and one w hick it was equity their interest to obtain. Ile hoped they wosld preserve order ; ■nd concladed by moving, that th• Thanks of that Meeting were due to Henry Hunt, Esq. for his upright, independ ent, snd steady conduct in their Chair. Mr. Purscou seconded the motion. Mr. HUNT, ill expressing his acknowledgments, said, he had hitherto steered quite clear of sedition, bet he was now ■bout to be the most,seditious man living: he was preparing to reed to them a few item, out of a Mat:: Book. It bad been celled the Red Book ; hut it had been lately republished, and presented the blackest catalogue that ever was contained in the same number of pages. (Heir a voice from the centre of the crowd excleioned, " How much does Lord Castlereagh give you, Hunt, for coming to spout here?") Mr. Hunt hoped that no angry feeling would he manifeated against the in dividual; he himself felt nn anger, he was rather pleased at the opportunity of answering much a gee,- lion. He had been born to a small independent pro perty, and had never received but once in his life a single sixpence of stipend of reward from any nets. A rich men had once celled on him to give evidence in London, on a trial, and had paid him AI. for his Patience'. He had never been rasployed by any individual ; l.e was the servant of the public by choice, and many of them might perceive what an ungrateful office that was. There were many knaves among their enemies, who knew not how to conceive that at.) mo tile.' (wept those of selfishness could.actoatri the comouct of aim individual. The man who had asked him this question might belong to that order, and he ad• mired the frankness to which he was indebted for this opportunity of risplaining himself. It hart been urged by a corrupt l'ress that every act of the Reformers was symptomatic of immorality. It made a system of Witching the Prince Regent, in order t 7 k Pp the U money gi.. frig ~.. father. This was, he supposed, an easenplo of the . . .. . morality of the higher olden. It eat, be presenter!, the same morality *bids induced Lord 5421131011 to bestoir the eleskship of the Pena, • si•ee•re worth 30001. a year, on hi. own infant son. The lawfol wife of the Dak• of ion's, with whom he had lived fora rom i,l 6/4 10._iloie, was now abandoned by him, . . . and the sum of 26181., taken from dm Ism raised oot of their pockets. Was appropriated for her sop. port. It am!, thertfore against then bi 4 h pers o ns that the Editors of tha corrupt Press levelled the charge of immorality over the shoulders of the Re. formers. There mos my le.rd Arden, brother to the late Mr. Pereeval, •ho did Item the k to take frost them 38,011. • year, fo► doing nothing. My Lord Bathurst received 34,0001. And were they to be called seditious mod immoral because (hey cum• pleieed of each abates. Were they, while pilling in want, to he prohibited from all public declaration of their erievances ? What had been done by glue present Parliament ? They bed bed I.nng Pirlis. events, Rump Parliernents, and Baritones Par liament; but the present, he thought. sheeld be called the drivelling Parliament. There was no club of artisans in the Metropolis who would not hue managed the affairs of the Nation better. lie would mot now allude to any political party, ►■t be hoped fell end freqeent Meetings, like those is the North, would take place, for the purpose of boldly; firmly, and patiently expressing their opinions. It this course were quietly and steadily pursued, its object mast be accomplished. It was en indisput able truth, that the vox Populi Was the roe Der ; that was, the voice of the People was the voice of God. (elppleause.)-If, when the business of that day was ever, this vast anemblage 'bond retire in tranquillity to their homes, occurrences might arise out of this Meeting most important to the welfare and bap'''. ',es of the country. If, ern the contrary, aoy riot or disorder should take place, it ovoid prove a source of dreadful calamity, as it would be made • reason for inflicting en them the vengeance of a wicked Government. and most severely they would be made to feet it. Fen his sake, therefore, as well as upon public grounds, he entreated ekes to avoid all riot, as be was same that every attempt would be made to provoke them to a breach of the peace. Ho advised them, then, to disperse, each man carrying with him the agreeable cousciousness that be bad that day *erected himself for hie own and the general good. Ile himself was proud to reflect that be bad sow obtained the thanks of his fellow•coentry. men. He bad grown grey in their service, and this was the highest point of his ambition. When laid in 'his grave, he trusted it would be said of him, that be had neon done any thing derogatory to the cha racter of an Englishman, or desertyd the cause of the I People.—( Lord applause )—lle would rather deie sound into it that bight with this hope aad feeling. then live for ages without that reseed. Was there °neaten present who believed him guilty of the chirp that bad been advanced against him? lie dud wet be- Hee. there was, end he was therefore grateful to Ike ignition who bad furnished hum anti this opperte. wily of R epelling it. lie now eiiiigi ula•ed them that the proceedings on ibis occasion would, be bad fn. son to believe, be fully aid faithfully rep, rti-d by the respectable persons who stood tsetse his. Mr. Hunt paid some compliments to the Gentlemen whom be saw around hint rugged in repot.ing.— They were men, he slid, of tuna or and of coosider. able talent—so much so, that tt was almost bey's. his comprehension how they contrived to take dowa every thing that was said even to • word. And it was to be desired, slut whets their reports appeared is the Newspa Fen, and (as was often the case) they mete evidently partial sod entree, the fault was not to be attributed to them, hat to their earprioci. ' pled employers, who had the power of manufacturing their speeches when they got home. %Vitas their duty was impartially di-charged, they were en titled to public gratitude ; they were all obliged to them far their attendance; and the highs.' coos. pliment which they could slay to the Meeting would be to report its p/oceedings fully. It bed been urged by many persons, that no Reform rend be effected so long as the tales continued to be paid. Ile would new mention to them some circumstances which bad passed between himself and a tas-gat honer, who demanded arrears for 18 months, but whom • had,howeveroleclined to pay. The tes.gathererat lest threatened that be should be proclaimed a defaulter, and that his goods should be destrained upon. Ts Olt Mr. Hoot answered that he had no objection aid hid him take possession. The taa-collector, who was a respectable neighbour, called 12 mouths lifter, and earnestly entreated Mr. H. to pay ; the reply ass still " No, take the goods." The collector ran then to end fro between Mr. Hunt and the Con . missiosers till the warrant was worn oat, arid Int month they were obliged to prepare a new copy. Tie collector at last wrote to Mr. Haat, who was th.aa in town, to say that if he diJ not pay, be, the col lector, would be destrained upon by the Cemmis aioners. Mr. Hunt still replied, that he was most anxious the collector should pat himself to so Incas veilience with the Commissioners, bet emote the warrant and take what be liked. The collector then gave the Commissioners notice thet Mr. Hunt's hoe • was locked up and be could not break it open witl. net risking his life; he therefore begged them to eo it. At %verb Mr. It. was informed that a font. wheeled carriage, belonging to a friend of his, lad been seised opoo his estates, sod carried off by tt • Commissioners; it was, boo ever,soon after rettnnee, with notice from the collector, that be bad sagging d the money and Mr. Hoot might pay bias whet, I • pleased, and thus the affair stood at present. — Ile remarked, that on this point be wished to fol low the advice of that illustrious patriot who b. d gone before hien, Jahn Hampden, never to p y tales which were not imposed on the Peoiile b ) • Parliament of their own choosing.
