I. think, and I have before statist it in the House of Commons, hat those persons who instituted the proceedings against Sir. Francis Burdett grossly miscontlncted themselves. They ought to have known what they were aboot ; to, do. They ought tcy have been pre. paredlor thoeveuta which they must have maid pated.e. insteed oCAlitif s v when We had passed ihe Yodel . Obey-left quartet*, to shift • for itself — be gem-. AS howigiolitreeeed—theit came the case: which ,Kodtiond .thbee fatal events it would 'mot Woe* Oa now to speak of more at large. Gentlemen, to the Magistrates of the City. of Len. don you may trust the safety of the City, , perfect. trammed they will not neglect every necessary Inquiry. .Yottwtey possibly know what passed in the House. of Commons yesterday, and what is my opinion upon the subject of the lives which haven bee lost. We shall pow come to the great issue4-let it :be tried—let the privilege of the House !of Coalitions be defined—let the Howse of Continues be stripped of every one of their privi. legs, (WWII ticeplegaily possess them—if they are not neceasary• for the ,protection of the people. s But let us net usurp and , stoetabont in the pompof privilege we do not legaily:possesi. To able hands will be confided the-discussion of the question, bat illlovir me:to say one word with Respect to him, by iwatching whose conduct I have derived so mech. benefit—the mad to whom I always looked as the model utpolitie,al wisdom, and in whose steps I would.wish .to tread—l allude to what was said iby !Mr. F,ox, that best of. public servants: as long as my. memory lives, his sentiments will be re corded in it.' He said, " Let us take care that we do not expect that which It is impossible to' obtain." There may be circumotances, in which the House of. Commons might also say, " you ask fur a thing which,l4-#tb..is net possible to . great." It is true,. that the advertisement of . John Gale Jones ,was no obstruction to the proceedings of the House of. Commons ; And if it was considered a libel, it ought .to haver been referred to a Jury to determine whether it was so or not—but, Gentlemen, recollect, that which ,formed ne obstruction to the. House of Commons today, may to-morrow. I bare lived in time when dividing with smell Minorities, I became obnoxious to the mob. In times like those, when persons affected to be loyal, when they were actuated by what was miscalled loyalty, suppose that two Representatives who thought differently, had had their names put up, with a view to obstruct their passage to. the House of Comm*...,, in that case I think they would have had a right to, complain to 'the House of Coin. nionsuf such an outrage, and vindicate themselves by an appeal to the privileges or the loose. Therefore, though the conduct of Gale Jones was nu obstruction to the House of Common; to-day, a similar conduct might ha to-georrow. - Every act of the kind must undoubtedly stand on its own legs. Shew me the day :sad time on which it is done, and then I will tell you whether it is a case of privilege. , It would. be impossible on such a subject to draw a precise definite line. Now, Gentlemen, having said so much, I implore your pardon, but this is a crisis in which the public mind is much agitated,. and I always wish that my voice should go to the ear of every candid man, in order that I may be connoted if I am wrong, for I think one of the greatest things to be desired, is to have my opinion canvassed .fur the perpose of my weighing .my opinions over I again, and seeing whether, I 4111 right or wrung, Perhaps my anxiety to pour forth my soul in such a Meeting as this isonicy: have led me beyond the usual line ; but, Gentlemen, I must reflect that I am entrusted not by any particular person, or ' for any small utimbee l of men, but that I am re. Wilted by the right of election for An extensive ,population—that I have ,n‘k interest or ever had in soy, Borough, but that :I spring directly from the people, and look to the people for support— I know that the,constitutional liberty of England, whatever we. may think of aneientliherty, is the purest that cm existed—thisessuothiug in the ancient wield to be coulpared .ttiith it ; that Lacedenoughtit, Aternen, or *theniaw.liberty fell far short of.kritish constitutional liberty, under which every man has . . the same chticnium-we who represent them. At ancient days, !o! . .1 know that ineo foughLand bled to -assert. their liberty, but we are told, that under the dovainiop of that li berty., a large portipn of the . people writ) con signed to domestic slavery. Ucider• the constitu tion of this cuuutry no such thing can exist ; we have consequently more to .fight, and contend far than any uatiou s since the beginning of the, world. It is true our cuitstitutionaliiberty has. heat much impaired and neglected ; oor s Coestit!ttionel , Li. berty has not at different times Attee mated with the vigour the People have Misplayed on, some oc casions.

Stich having beep always his 1 conceptio, he thought it his duty, some yeast ago, to resist the establishment of what was called *Court of In%uiry in the Navy, where no oath whatever was administered, and in consequence of his resistance to that dangerous innovation, as he considered it, ho was punished—that is, he was sent with his ship into vi:e North Sea, to spend four months otf the Island of Icelaud, where they could render no service whatever to their country. This proceeding 'appeared to him to have some analogy to the recent conduct of the House, who had sent one of their body, by way of punishment fur doing his duty, to the Tower. But what confidence could the People of Eng land-repose in, or what disposition could they 'feel to concede to,• that House, which claimed Ma Privilege alluded to ? Let the people look at its recent conduct. Of the Expeilitiou to tin:Scheldt they approved, and so should he, if it were properly arranged. But here he begged leave to submit a remark or two, which he had not heard in the House of Commons.
