A Meeting *se ,held, yesterdor, put-mita to public edverusement, of the Electors of West minster, for the purpose of nominating two. fit end proper persons to represent that City to the ensuing Parhutment. A few initiates before one o'clock, Lord Cocik. eagle, accompanied by Mr. STURcH, Pirrkft WALK 6a, abd several other Gentlemen, entered the room. His Lordship was received with load cheering.—Ar. Hamar HUNT, utteloted by Nlr. GAMIC Jolla. armed-soon drier. Mr. fits NT was received with a mixture of plaudits and ',lases. Ou the motion of Mt. Aossts, Mr. liTtlltCli sou ealkd to the Chair. He observed, in opening the business of the day s that it was soneetimes the duty of • person who - 1 %.1 0 1119.11 a be Wind to the Choir. To tak e ean .a. datable pains to explain to nil u.reuably the object sad occasion of its meeting—but at was perfectly unnecessary fur him to du so at present, as the ad vertisements published in the newspapers, 1 the bills posted up in the streets, spoke sufficiently plaits on the subject. The object of the Meeting was a simple and direct out. It was, in the first place, to receive a communication trout Lord Coch rane. who wished to take his leave of the Electors; sod. in the next, to nominate two 8t and proper persona to represent this greet and populous City is the ensuing Parliament. It was equally unne cessary to inform those whom he now addressed, whit.wal proper to he done on this occasion. For some years the City of Westminster had been the theatre Of the most free and liberal political di.- cussieu. Those subjects which interested [onets beings in the highest degree, so far at least us re garded their temporal welcome, hail been anxiously inquired into --insomuch that it was impossible for him to entertain • doubt, that the Citizens of West minster were as well informed of their rights, and were as strongly determined to defend them, as any body of Electors in the kiugdone—f Ap piewse./e-Every person must know, that, to have a voice in the making of flume laws, which had the power of disposing of his property, his liberty. and his lifesi—to have a vote in the enacting of those sta. tut's; which bound all—must be the right of Apphoree./—Ou this point certainly some dif ference of opinion, some degree of doubt, had pre. veiled. He would not treat that doubt with contempt, because it was cherished by persons for whom he entertained. and ought to euter tain, a very high respect. Whether that right was to be restored at once and altogether—or whether they were to procure one right after *notion, till all. by degrees, were granted—was a question he would Dot expatiate opt.—(Crks of 44 We um* have Mr whole rights at oar? P'—" No compromise!"/—He wee nut arguing the pinta, but merely stating the question as it stood. What ever might be the difference of sentiment on that subject, there was one point ou which all were agreed—namely, that the present lepresentatiun, or rather the misrepreseutatiou of the peopl, in Parliament, was not what it ought to he,— (4p plawse.)—lt did not answer the end and purpose fur which the representative 'poem was adopted— the preservation of freedom, and the security of those invaluable and inalienable rights, without which even life itself was .comparatively of little moment.—(Appluare.)—The whole subject had been so often brought under the consideration of the electors of Weatminster, that it was not tor ces sary to enter at large into it—for every man knew it as well as he could pretend to dn. Twelve years ago. au effort was made to rescue the City of West minster from that thraldom in which it bad lung been held. The experiment was fairly tried, and it perfectly succeeded. It was found that it waisted only a few persons of spirit to take the lead, and that the recovery of their rights was certain. The electors, when success atteuded their exertions, chose no ser vile tool of Ministers—no person patronised by a Nobleman—to represent them. They chose a man of whose ability nod integrity they were well as sured. From that time to the present he had con tinned to be their representative—and he had on all occasions shewn the greatest love for freedom, and the utmost zeal for the maintenance of their.rights. —(Applause.)—They would soon have the power of electing representatives again—and be hoped they would elect two persons every way worthy to fulfil the duties of that high trust. He had no hesitation at ell iu anticipating, that their choice would fall on the individual to whom he had al -1 laded, as owe of those representatives.— (Yee! yes ! from all ports of she roots.)—He understood the Noble Lord, one. of their present representatives, thought it necessary, under particular circumstances, to retire. He was present. and would explain him self fully. It would then be for the Gentlemen presept, to say whom they would put in no tatiou with the Hoo. Baronet. in the room of the Noble Lord. He hoped, nay, he was confident, that whatever was stated. every Gentleman would b; heard with candour and attention. Ile trusted the proceedings of this day would add one more proof to the many which were in existence. that the electors of Westminster were not, us they had been termed, a mere mob, bat the steady, rational, and ealialit cued friends of freedom mud of peace. 'Flits proper order of proceeding would be to hear the Noble Lord who was about to retire—and t h en . an y norninanous, whether live or 25, be knew not, might be made. When soy Gentlemau was uomi rutted, his fuiend would say what lie pleased in his favour, un naming him—and the whole of the noun nations having been gone through, they could then, by a show of hands, decide in whose favour the settee of the assembly was.—(.lllsch applaree.) Lord Cocusows How wrouutted the table—awl. when the plaudits of the &Irving had subsided, lie said-1 1 Eiritileusen-We are omen In understand, that probably, in a eery few days, there will de volve on the people that right, which should always rest with the prop la—the right or givibg ihrir votes for them who are empowered to dispose of Om &WISH GALLERY, PALL-MALI.

PIA. F.wery wed ma the Moodie seveolkellf. s and Bottley at ppo4 ly of the electors of . send their own repre seutelwes into the MAIN of Commons—and are nut COOtent to return wen who are the took and instruments of others. I wit! not trespass lout upon your time--but shall ,give brief ,ketch of matter* with which you must all be acquainted. Vpriards of eleven years' experience proves to me, th it the [louse or Commons never will speak the sow of the people, until it is reformed—and that minim can be brought about by the people slime.. If. at the emitting °voters' election, the people sent 'bets of talent, of z.. 41, of iiitegri y. Tutu the House, there would be wine hope that their cause would be successful—but it is my fixed and firm impression tlist such will not be o r result of the approaching election. 011 the col:- trary, I think, Out, except in some few 1.9111110114 places, the same scene of corruption and iii4ediirss will be acted, which has su lung disgraced she country. The time when a change is likely to lie brought about is very problematic—but I think it never will come uwa Millistrs and their friends bring the people to such a vote of distress and de gradation, us will no longer be etichirable.—(sip pturre.)—There is one glorious precedent—a pre cedent of drys long gone by—of reform in that House. It owes its existence to a person who is said to hare usurped the reins of Govertiateut. He reformed the House of Commons—and, perhaps, the course he took was the only one by tvltich.a re. fonts could be effected. Wheiher a reform, in the present time, will be accompanied with the same disorders which marked that period, it is impossi ble to anise —but, unless the flume of Commons be reformed from without, there is 1.1 biotic that the wishes of the people no be realised.— (Appiouse.) From within they have nothing to expect—all de pends on their exertions from without. lu but one or two instances have I agreed with majorities of that House—fortunately or unfortunately I will not pretend to determine. Whether I have voted right o► wrong. it is for you to decide—but this I will venture to say, th.it I always voted a , cording to the dictates of my conscience.--(Applause.)— For some tune past, I have determined on leaving this country, for purposes which will hereafter be better knowis to you—but which purposes I con sider to he intimately blended with these principles I have all along eute►tained—(Appliuise.)—When I had formed that determination, even if there had been no dissolution of Parliament, I should have felt it to he my duty to recigu lam your hauds that sacred trust which you had reposed in me.— ( 4pplerese.)—Howeirer great the weight and im portance 1 Arnold have derived in going where lam about to go, feeling tuvielf the representative of so numerous and respectable a body—whatever con sideration that circumstance 'night have given to • stir, in whatever place I might Proceed to—still I should have surrendered into your hands a trust which my absence would not permit our to execute. ..-(lfere leis Lordship was mush übcied.)—Ar this is probably the last time, for a considerable rind, at lea , . that I shall have the honour of ad &ruling you, I shall u.e the freedom of making, with ►espect to myself, a few observations.—(dp plarsr.)—Many, and very great, have hero the misrepresentations of my conduct. In what source those misrepresentations originated. it is difficult for me to determine. I hese ►►ut yet fully been Mile to 1,4 y tiefore you uu explanation on this sub ject. I hoped to have done so long lwforr this. Rot I pledge ►myself, that although it is not alreinly rite ted, it shall certainly be 4108 w. There is a chain of circumstances, which leads our to think, that those who are engaged in these misrepresents. tiro's, are persons not at all suspected by the politic. —(Great applasse.)—lsolividuals, through their machinations, have been arrayed against me, who were unworthy of credit, who bad iiosisly committed perjury—who had sworn to matters most contradictory to their knowledge.— (Applause.)— It must appear a strange circum stance—it is one I never before disclosed—that, at the time whets I was a prisoner its the King's Bench, and wished to conic out to lsy my vier asters before a corrupt (louse of Commons, I re ceived a message from the highest authority in this el'antelt stating, that if I chose to leave it, I was at liberty to do su.--(Lestd cheering.)—My an swer was, ' That I would see all the foreign de scendants in this kingdom out of it, before I would depart clandestinely.'—(Loud cheetiNg )— 1 shall say little wore. All I have in lite I owe to you. If it had not been for your protection, I should have been destroyed. I know well, that, when the power of the Court is exerted for the destruction of any individual—when the Courts of law are in a state of degradation.-.when Millilitre bring forward perjured evidence. and when that evidence is received by corrupt Judges —it is difficult for say nisei to escape from the conspiracy. But still all these arts may be over come if the people espouse Isis cause.—(Applarse.} When we look back to the period at which those charges were made against me, it will be recollected, it was then said, • what interest cnii a Judge on the Bench, or a Jury of the country, or the Ministers of the Crown, have in procuring aii unjust verdict ?' Bat, since that time, you have seen perjured evi dence brought forward to deprive mei, of their lures—you have seen spies hired to entrap men into illegal avls that their lives might he taken away—their bowels tern out—their heads cut off—in order to jdstify the arbitrary measures of Ministers.—(Applause.)-1 hope, on my re. tu►n, to find sonlesshat more spirit through ant the people of this country than now appeals to actuate them. I fear there is an apathy. tout ought to be removed as speedily as possible. I fear the people do not think the House of Commons so cord rupt as it really tk. They do not believe it to .be sink of corruption and infamp—bot think that they may yet hope something better front it. How etc can we account for the number of petitions daily presented to that House ? And yet, I will a•k, has any one petition of the people lie, ts atten d ed to ?...
