Thais resolutions, lie hoped, would meet their apitrobatien ; they went to express a just sense of the consequences to be apprehended from the power +plimsoll by the ! louse of COUHDOO., 111 the rose of Mr. Cale Jo ; and to express a hecom urg ittion to resist such an deinuiption, by all cnurtimnonal means. lis the case of Sir Francis Burdett, %hull had subsequently occurred, though of great moment to the country, they were not so edirtehy and iotimab•ly euncerned, as in that of Mr Jones. The former referred to the power of the Rouse over its own Members ; the latter to its power over the litople is general; it exteoded its consequences from the Members of the Horse of Commons down to the most insignificant individual in the coinintioity. With respect to Sir Francis Iliptlett's case, there was, yeste►ilay, a Meeting of this iiihuirstatits of Vestmristt•r upon the subject, *cal lie was happy to say, it was likely to be follow ed ty by all recognized bodies. As the present Meeting was not assembled under any legal autho riq. it a °gild not he proper for them to proceed any Gather, tl.u► barely to declare their upon the suljet t, mud, by ripe g a subscription, to af ford, to all the fliends of the cause, ■n opportunity of in.iintaioitig it ; not by words only, but by prac tice.—mpritiasses.) The limo, Second, sod Third Resolutions were then pia end carried unanimously. On the Fourth Resolution befog put— M r.Jo e es suggested, that the word tt came 'should be introduced.

It was rather fur a principle than en iodi 'Waal they we►e now interesting themselves. M►.
