(Mr. Mute's :pack concluded front our Pope of rtslorday.) Although himself (Mr. Hume) of 'moderate fortune, it was sufficient for his purpose, as he regulated his expenditure by his income, sod be thought it was not eoreseunable in him to request from the Ministers the same list of conduct fur the maims which he adopted for himself. He had considered the virtue of every sea in danger who al lowed hisextrevagaspee to bring hint in debt; sad he had often shimmed the degradation and ikbaseinent of such see by these metes, who, if out of debt and independent, would have startled at acts which their necessities compelled them to. He therefore mesidered excess of expeoditure as the high read to ruin and degradstion, whether in a private gentle ness or in a nation; lied that reireocheseet sad troeuemy were the best sad only honourable means to relieve society Cr.. the effect of wasteful profusion. There was • time when G•glaad was happy and doerishiog, sheet the artisan and labourer enjoyed to comparative comfort the entailer of his isedestry, ad whilst their greet neele's and noble ex 'miens during • long war entitled them to as addition to these means of eajoyment, it sorely must he misgovernment aloes that can deprive them of these blessings. It was inisgoveromeut which, by excessive taxation, took from the people their property to lavish on • few inslivideels who were in power and ogle,. It was a must lamentable fact that the suffering people had their earnings takes from them to support that very system which was grinding them to the dust, and levelling all classes in metal distress-••his task had been to expose the causes, to et I the exinoragsace of every department, and lay them ►efore the House of Commons, and through it to the nation, in all their motive hideousness. It was matter of gratiicatim that the exer times of OD bumble an iedieldeal had bees sefficieot to call the ails ties of Porlianseet to en Important • eabjeet ; sod the reselt• emist depend on the part the people will take to enforce the recommendations ►e had offered. Mach indus try had bees used ►y the venal press to vilify his modem and to misrepresent in calumnious language the motives: but he had too much respect for the press —too high an opi aim sr the baselits to good government b'y t►e perfect free dem of the press, to attempt in any way to restrain it : his conduct as • public man was fairly before them; and he trusted to troth becoming triumphant against injustice sod falsehood: he did not fear the result to his own character or to the public intmests ; but as be understood there were some persons in this moiety w►o had misearier. shred his conduct, it was due to those Gentlemen who hod presented him with the gifts of this day, and done him the high honour of his public reception, to explain to them shortly the coarse be tout. Instead of briegi mg forward masses of figures misty and confused, be had submitted a variety of statements of the comparative expenses of the Goverameot, to explain and simplify the accounts, which carried convie tion to the plainest understaodiegs ; and ►avieg remained mcontradicied in the House of Commons, those who heard him might new receive them as correct. If in 1792, a lime of peace, Eaglead was happy and contested, he thought it fair to compare that year's expendi tare and income with this year, and to account as well for the difference of the expenditure as fur the etreichednese which now covered the laud like • pes tileoce. In that year, the prices of the rester part of the prorluceorthe country were nearly the assess they are in this year, and as far as the necessaries of life are requisite for hap pities., they areas abuudast in the country now Li in 1792. To beheld a starving peasantry in • land %aplenty, sod com plaining formers with their granaries full, can only arise from misrule. The situation of the cumetry, either ae in ternal quiet ur external protection, he considered at the present time to require nu further military establishment or any greater Cied List than in 1792. But, alas ! how dif ferent were the facts. In 1792, the total taxation of the country was 16 or 17 millions. In 1820, 55 or 56 millions, exclusive of •3 millions paid to the collectors and receivers, dm.; a goodly sour to be lly expended iii support of the influence of the Ministers, and it afforded nice pickings fur thousand of hungry and dependant tax-gatherers. The system of misrule could not go on as it now did against the public opiuiou, unless means were employed to bribe end corrupt its supporters. It was the imperious duty of the Parliament to reduce the mites of influence, and slim that of the army, navy, colonies, Ike. &c., which Isere all drains on the industry of the people. He did net make these charger lightly, or ins • general Newer, but be had pointed oat, department after department, and item after item, until ee•victtun had oveltaken even the Ministers, and compelled theist to join in ■n address to the Crown, on the 27th of June last, at the close of the Session, to reduce t h e ex penditure of the musky. The Marquis uf Load's's derry had charged Wine (Mr. Hume) with attempt. lug by harlequin leap, what was superhuman in re trenchment; but he world appeal to those who heard him as to the justice and practicability of his proposals. In the army, in 1792, for example, the number of regular troops were 53,000, sad of irregular 33,000, snaking • total of 86,000 for the service of that year, fur Great Britain, Ireland, and all our culumies alleged. In June, 1821, we had 101,000 regular troops, and 162,000 of irregular, making a total of 263,000 men in arms, or seedy to take arms uu the shortest notice!! He would ask what necessity there could be for such an enormous army art the 6th year of peace, to drain the re sources of the country ? Can 177,000 soldiers more in 1821 than in 1792 be necessary ? This was sae of the greatest ►ourre. ofexpeese, the most useless, and the most dangerous to the Couslitutiou in every way. Oar Constitutions was essentially a civil oar, nod in former times the laws were ted tinder the civil Magistrates, sod the interference of the military was unknown. Of late years, the mi litary were called in even to attack and destroy their ' wa rme d sa d Nouffeerding rellow-citimes We were in danger of becumiug a military in►tad of remaining • civil Govermseto; and he thought, therefore, that the earn mons military estahliabuteet ought to be redeems', both fur the sake of remote, and for the prosectios of that cosi eritutioo which the Revolution •f 1888 give to t►is coun try.

He thought 'hie as gloomy a case of corl rapt ialliseoce as was ever brought before Parliament; cud yet Parliament refused to do soy thing to correct it. Not to delay them loager with details, he would state the total san perative esparto of the Army, Navy, and Ordoasee Depart ments, tire three great arms of military deferrer, at two pee riods. la 1793 the charge was 4.760,000/. He would request every marl to rossider the slate of the country abroad and at home in 1791, suet at the present lime. The total charge is 1791, the time of the French Revolution, which threat eared to spread to oeighbieming cooetries, was wily about 4.500,000/4 and let them guars what, ceder the Kestrel distress prevailing in the commie', the charge might to be. It would be impossible they could guess 16,700,000/. was the expense by the estimates of this year; but it was a fact, a most melancholy fact, that the charge in 1641 was 11,050,000/. more than the charge is 1702 for the same three departments. He admitla el that such statements as these were soffirient to surprise every thinkieg man, and to urge him to adopt measures to lessen the existing evils by pro moting economy aad retrenchment. The expeoses of col lecting the ream** he had stated at 4,150,000/., and Ire was esafident thiit the propositiuu of the member for Airing , don (Mr. Maberly)ta reduce oisamirth of that sum, might with propriety be effected. As an example of the sairiag that might be made ia the collection of the reverie', he (Mr. Hume) bad got a Committee to inquire luau the duly and al. betimes of the sixty-firs Receivers General; and although the majority of the Committee were (1110111141.... afiniatere g they unanimously reeesaineaded to abolish these oillees as sinecure omens ; and if the recoansseudatioa of the Com mittee be atteued to, about 75,0001. will be saved to the public out of 118,0001. There were also 95 distribetors of stamps, holding sinecure offices, at an repeat of awe than 95,0001 lly to the public—a charge three times greater than was earessery—a charge kuown to be caressive sod extrairagast ; wad yet the Ministers have nut, although they have beer pointed out fur three successive years, reduced them. Is nut that a pretty clear pried that the Goverosseat do at Maturely wish to retrench, whatever they may pre. re tend to the nation ? It is, thereso, for the su ffering peo ple, through their Representative., if they are able, to compel reriamins. It is not the paltry eduction" of junior clerks marry of them scarcely sow sufficiently paid, that will satisfy the public, bet it is an efficieet reductiou of every pared that cam be spared—es approximation to the expresser 1792, beginning with the Ktng, and going through every de partners'e to the private soldier. Is it jest, fur rammer, that the charges foe the Civi List, the civil charges on the Coosolidated Food, arid miscellaneous services, 'Wald have been 4,165,0001. in 1010, and only 1,130p0t. for the same heads in 179.2 ? The expenses of the calmer@ 1144 exceeded 3,000,0001. to Great Britain, which was over and above She revels's', of these eoloaies. This be consider. al almost an moire loss Is' the ceustry, and much of that ruin was squandered away to pay useless offices and exhorbitant salaries. The new colonies were refused civil governments, which might provide for the expeneu and defence of those islands, and the whole of the revenues was at the disposal of else military Goveruors, under my Lord Bathurst: the conse quences were, great dissatisfaction there, and great exam here. Such a man as Sir Thomas Maitland (whose modal, if correctly reported, against the Greeks now struggling fur their freedom, he considered as a reproach to the character of a Briton and • Christian!, was iu the receipt of sear 15,0001. a year. The Lord lieutenant of a neighbouring comity had his brother tin • salary of 10,0001. at the Cape of Good Hope, with • variety of other advantages Cr bis relations, tee. In 1796, the allowance to Sir Jobe Craig, as Goverour of the Cape, war only 1,1171. $ year; the Governor's 'edify was for a number of years 4,000/. and now it was 10,0001. a year. This was an example of profusion. Its ibis mumer are the taxes of the people squandered away. To clout observations oa that subject, he (Mr. H.) sie June 47, submitted a motion to the House of Commons, far tearaway and retrenchment, and pointed out the sum of 4,500,0001. as the aggregate •muunt of the nee 00000 y redactions in time expenditure of the country; and the Ministers reluctantly emseurred in the praporitioa for reductiu• when made by one of their owe fiteeds. From the experience of past years he distrusted their isitentions, unless the people in every part of the country took up the subject as it deserved. We had sees on the elb of June, 1819, when three million+ of sew laxea were must unjustly laid on the people, that the Chancellor of the Exchequer moved in the House of Commons a similar resolution of economy; but al. though he (Mr. Hume) had also on the 12th of June, IMO, made a sootier w the same effect, not a pound bad been reduced, or any revision of establishments bees made, except in the Commas, where mate inquiry bad tubes place, up to the termination of the last Session. Whilst the House of Commons was constituted as at present, he was satisfied that any relief would be but trilling and tem porary. The represestatives were sefortauately guided too muck, he feared, by views of aggrandisement to themselves and families, by supporting the measures of the Ministers, to act as an honest House of COWMAN ought to do. The experience of way years past had proved that aelOsh and interested views had too uftea led them aside from that path of public duty which the welfare of the people quired them as representatives of the people to follow : there was not that tVllow-feeliog and sympathy between the people mid their representatives —sot that community of intermit which ought to exist, and which the Revolution of NU gave to this nation. That cuomitistioe was strictly representa tive with that devalue of Parliament which gave a check and control to the people over the eueduct of those she were arbiters of their liberty and property, by the laws they might enact, sad the expenditure they might easictitto.

Friend his best support is oppositely every wasteful expeuditure of the public mosey. He cosicurrest fully with the Hos. Chairman anal with Mr. H. that a referee la the represestation was of vital importance to the isdareate of the country. Without it good govermaest might truly be said to be impossible. To obtain • Reform, then,rvery exertion should be made ; but he reeosintended to dome who beard him to consider well what constituted a real mid efficient Reform of the Parliament, fur much error might and did prevail on this important quertion. The sahject might be cossidered (hider three views: —first, the eX1•111•111/111of the eler tire franchise; secondly, the frequency of elections; and, thirdly, the mode of election. iVith respect to the Arm of these, the extension of the eteetive franchise, he did rut cos eider it the must important object of the three he had mew tinned, yet no Reform eosld be au adequate me which did sue greatly extend the elective franchise; fur he should be con- • heated if it went so far as householder suffrage. Upoe the l ocoed point, frequenry of eleet ions, he should ash that with ont it there could be so cheek in the hands of the electura against the cum, Ow tithe members. If elections were not frequent, we should sot very materially improve our ay._ tem •' sod If they were, it would be h ut reasouahle to allow each member to set as be thought proper, notwithmandiag the known sestiraests of his constituents: those one. stitsents would have the power to displace him at the fol_ . lowing election. With respect to the third poises, the mode detection. he thought that of the greatest importance ow • questions of real reform. To secure a real reprematetion of the people in Parliament. there must be secrets), of suffrage, or, as it was commonly callus , elections by ballot. It was loa thing but mockery sea delusion to pretend to give the right of voting to a man if you prevented him from exercisers it without crowfeet. Let the kind ellen and superior ta lents of those above him In station have their due effect in ineneociag his will—this was a just sod legitimate infiteeace, hot do sot subject his will to the will of another. If you du, it is not his vote you obtain bed the vote of soother moo; and it would be better and more hueourable to give it to that rasa in the lest instasee. He (Mr. Ricardo) had thought much on this subject; he had attentively considered ell the objections which were brought spinal voting by ballot, bet he could see so weight in them. He hoped wherever the imports.. subject of reform came under the comidershion of the gestlemen present, they would out fail dye at 'entices to this vital security for eased gov " Lord Harley," was nest drank, who returned shooks. A letter was then read from Mr. Maducks, M.P., espremiog hie regret that indisposition prevented his attendance. 4 R. P. Seuelamire, E-q., M.P." was given from the Chair. J. L.

Mr. Barrett, in an address replete with wit and humour, commented ow the late protmediugs of Administration, and concluded a briniest speech, which our limits preclude ins from stating, with thaiikieg the meeting for the koseur he had received.
