The high price of beer, the Petitiotiers stated, arose from the monopoly of the leading brewers in the metropolis, who, when the price of malt was low, and the taxes mein it reduced, wide no adequate rviluet in the p. ice of their beer, becauars they .Hid) their stock oil hand must first be die. posed of. In addition In the evil of the price, the article suffered a deterioration of its quality, anal . - was nu longer that exlidartstisig Ireverage to cheer the heirs of mat which it w.is wont to be, but a hyoid contsi ll i o ig deleterious iii4redienta. injurious to the consumer. It was also stated , that the brewers met together regularly mid fixed the price. This. however, did not appear in any evidence Ira - fore the Roller Report, which touched on this sob jvct.

And your Petitioners will 'ter pray, ike. On the motion that it do lie on the told+, Mr. BARCLAY rose ku.4.1 said, lie gi emit. :,.ore t., that the I Gentleman had nut d isiye7l pre - seeding this Petition until the hour when his Ala. jenny's M.isisters were present, that th e y ' l mo la have the op,iortunity 01 hearing the expl raison which this Petition called for, and which he was must anxious to give. It was tour, thr . questioie concerned the great body of the public—it wos equally true, it concerned a very large Humber or individuals embarked in a particular trade, sod also eleven principal houses in the Hiesropolis, who contributed to the State 1-So.lt p rt of its *kelt. r - venue, by annually furnislcug it, from their own business, nu less a sum than 900,000 f. It w * known to the House, that about two or fleece mou th. ogee, the high price of hops nerd malt com pelled the brewers to raise the price of purser one halfpenny per pot. Soon after theit citeuiustance Itesolutions (of which this Petition is a coley) were pittlished iii the public Papers, and a liositicatimi was given, Illat a Magistrate of Lonelan imam to convene a public meeting at the Crown and Ali char, to cotisider the rise in the price. The inert_ ing was then called, cud Mr. Beaumont appears ii the leading individual in the business. Th... meeting was shortly held, and as the sui t ', ti Wm* one immediately touching the chord of popular feeling, of course whatever resolutions were piesecited to plea e the people, were easily .aclopted. This meeting, lie understood, was not iitiiiieruissly attended, but every thing went on as the, pr ter* of it wished. liodeed nutliiiig eke could hale been expected, after the severe phi_ fipple with which lie betted the Chairman opened the business of the day, against is net of torn of whose transactions it was clear he knew nodding. The Petition, framed in this mower, was, no doubt, numerously signed, naked los astonishment was not so much at the numbers it now had, but shut it hod nut duce times their amount, consideriog the nature of the subject, the peculiar pain* by public appeals its the metropolis and its envi rons, to obtain signatures, for which purpose ad. vertisements of every kind were ciiculatcd, mid rsosis were sent about the streets with 111/wards on their backs, on which was pointed " Free Trade and a Fair Trial." He himself had the curiosity t e look in at one of the stations where sheets lay fir signature, and on asking the statute of the Pet.. tom, lie war answered that it was " to lower the price of porter." It was from the whole business clear that every stiutulus was used to procure the greutest number of sigoatures it was possible l's obtain. Mr. Beaumont, who took ass active pent at the Mtetitig, subsequently published the iretch which lie now heli its leis hand, and as it was mut, - rod to his purpose, lie hoped, with the peritinision of the house, to be allowed tee make occasional allusion to It. On the subject of the alleged mo nopoly, it might to be ieitiembered, that though the eleveii chief houses iu the metropolis were to it large exteset the owsiess of public houses, yet the trade Oa the country WWI not conducted us this maiener. The Police Committee had been referred to. The House would do well to look at that evi dence ; it would there be found, on the teutisnos y of the three priticipal brewers, who brewed e than s hall* the beer sold in the metropolis, how this alleged motitepoly, as it was called, stood.
