Because en cultural of the power of punishment now sewed is the Courts of Law, with leaped to cases of Libel, appears to us, therefore, to be uanecessary. Because the offence of publishing a Libel is, more than any oiler that is known to Our law, undefined sod %median'. Puhlica Was which at one lime may be coundered innocent mid crew laudable, may at another, according to circuits stances,aud the di 'crew. views of Public Accusers, of Judges, and of Juries, be thought deserving of punishment; and thus the author or publisher of any writing, dictated by the purest itileutiuos, ea a matter of public interest, without any example to warn, any disposition to isistrod, or any astho• rity to guide hiss, may expose himself to the penalty of bring " baiiislitil trim the Visited kingdom, mod all oilier parts of his Majesty's dominions, for such term as the Court, in which such coot ictiou shall take place, shall order; or be trans ported to such place as shall be appoiated by his Majesty fur the traosportatiou of offenders, fur any term sot exceeding seven years." Be the fear of being subjected to the punishownt of a common fetus, thus suspended over the bead of soy person who may hare been owe districted of publishing a libel, to which mare inadvertence may subject him, and against which nu degree of comities can offered km complete security, must „Necessarily &terbium front the fearless exercise of the right, which has bitiwrto been the proud prerogative of Eaglisbaseo, of freely discussing public measures, and eadeavouriag to warn his cuoutrymeo against the dmigerous escroacheneuts of power. Because this Bill, therefore, so immitsistent with the policy of our law, amid with the practice of our ancestors, spprars to us to be a 9111111.1 dasge►ous Massimo of the just freedom of the Press, and to be subversive, In one of their mails defences, of the rights cud liberties which were secured to us by pro gressive struggles through a bog succession of ages, sad at length asserted, declared, and, as we had fondly hoped, Brody established for ever by tbe.ftevolotion of 16/03.

Because the right of haring areas fur their defence, sulfas hie to their condition and degree, is secured to British sub. jeer by the ancient laws of these realms, is declared to be au by the Bill of Rights, and is, in the vowels of Mr. Justice Blackstone, " a public alkorassee of the natural right of rrsistaisce sod self.preserratioss, when the sanctions of so. • • cies) , and laws are fumed insufficient to restrain the violence of oppri moon." Because no sufficient evidsnee has been laid before the House to prove that arms and weapons of various sorts •have, in various parts of the Kingdom, been collected and ale kept for purposes disngerous to she public peace." We doubt the fact, and %le Merest the remedy. If arms have really been Itemised fur such illegal purposes, the persona engaged its these criminal designs, will have had ample un ticc, before this Bill can pass, to remove them to places of concealment. Whilst this power, therefore, is likely to he in • peat degree inefficient with respect to U. professed ob ject, it is liable to be must imperiously and vexatiously used, its cases where arms may have beets provided said kept fur the legitimate purposes of seltilefessee. Bennie in former periods of leech greater danger to the Crouse and Constitution of these realm., when conspiracies by the adherents of the House of Stuart were known to he directed against bulb; wheu perpetuities were =Alex foe rebellion with the assistance of Ensure; when men of the highest rusk, station, and influence in both Kingdoms were deeply engaged in these &signet nayobaring two formidable rebellions in 1715 and 1745, no such power was granted to the Crocus; yet the new line of succession was defended, and our free Constitution successfully maintained against all these daggers. The principles of the Revolution had been Sr Grotty inspriuted in the hearts and minds of our an ceders to allow thus on the spar of any emergency, how ever alarming, to hazard: flat existence of a right which they had so recently asserted. Because this law is, in its very Retort, peculiarly liable to abuse. !merest, credulity, nialeveleuer, revenge, party violence, and iieliscreet zeal, may, equally with a reuse of ditty, cuuutribute to call it into aflame ' • and the powers given for its lion, of breaking, either by day Sr night. into any louse or place where infurnsatiese may have been re ceived that arias are kept for illegal purposes, must unavoid ably expose the pergolas mid property of his %tejevites sub jects to injury and violence, which cannot be sufficiently guarded against by the provisions made he the Bill for that purpoite. This is to a mere apprehinsion. Experience pewee that such eff e ct s may be expected front it. In Ire land, it is well known, nothing more cousributed to irritate the people, and to peovoke acts of private resentment and revenge, than the abuses which took place, and particularly Ike iuYtNs which were offered to women, in the exercise of a sineilaFpowec. Because we further object to the enactments of this lam, as part of a system which, ill a season of unexampled dis tress sod misery, rejecting every prupotiti ssss fur coneilia lion ow concestiun, rest/ mu furor alone fur the tiippretsiiin of the prevailing discontents, and it calculated to give ail weight to au opinion, already tun generally enter tained. that Parliament is more yearly to premise against the peopk, and to enact taws fur their restraint, then to attend to their jowl complaints, and to shoed them dud protection which they have a right to claim against every species of injustice and uppreasion.

M.P. was for some time in the crowd. seated on the boa of a coach. which contaiurd a party of elegant mad fashionable hulks. Mr. MORRIS, the High Bailiff, on opening the business of the day, said, that previous to his read ing to the meeting the requisition, pursuant to which it was called, it was necessary fur hiss to apprize, theta of a regulation winch he atm& to carry into effect, and it was this—That Pa per son should address the meeting who was not an inhabiting householder of Westminster. This re- gelation was recognized in :he city of Loudest. and it was also the practice in massy of the counties. He thought it the real constitutional ground, that none should take part in public mertingsveavent . d fiw particular places, except those who had local interests therein. The High Bailiff then read the requisition. in pursuance of which he had convened the alerting. and said, he was ready Si hear tiny Gentleman who had any Resolutions W subunit on the present occasion. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT came forward. and was received *WI the mo.t enthusiastic acclamations,. The worthy Baronet commenced by stating. that before he addressed to these some observations on the circumstances which had this day brvoglit them together, hr could not help remarking upon whet had just fallen from the High Bella. He (Sir Francis) would not feel that he had acted as became him. if in his presence in any place he had listened to observations in silence, the effect of which he thought injurious to the interests of his fellow-citizens. The High Bailiff had announced his determination not to suffer any person but an inhabitant householder to whims the meeting, end he had grounded this determination upon the ionic lice which lie said prevailed both in the city of London and in several counties. The meson in general that prevented persons from cooling forward to address public meetings, who were not inhabi tants of the neighbourhood, was, that such perdue. del not perhaps generally feel the same strong in terest in being prominent on such occasions that others did who were locally fixed to the particular spot. 80, respecting the regulation now promul• gated by the High Bailiff, he would appeal to the Electors of Weetininster, and ask them, whether, whatever might be the existing regulation. else where, it badnot been their invariable practice to lend a ready ear to any one of their coun trymen who manifested any wish to addles" them upon occasions of their public meetings.— (Appluese.)—He would appeal to them, whether it hail ever been the practice at their meetings to put any control upon the common liberty of speech. save red except that which the audience themselves thought proper to apply. according to their own feelings and judgment. He should more portico lardy lament Ibis new rule if it should appear to be directed - against tiny one individual more than an other, cud under any of those unfounded apprehen sions of personal action which ran away with the underetaneings of many iudividu*ls in the preAltnt times. All that the electors of Westminster were ever in the habit of demanding at their meet ings was, that every men should have " a ulcer stage, and no favour"—(Applausef—and that whoever presented himself before them should at all times meet a Lir and impartial hearisig.—(4p plasse.)—Having thus protested against this new doctrine *Nell was promulgated by the High Bai liff, he would now direct their attention to the strange and unexampled situation in which the Minister, of she Crown had at this moment placed the people of this country—a situation of the tit most difficulty to touch upon, for to speak of it truly was highly dangerous, and to speak of it falsely impossible.—(Appleese.)—lt was a slew era in the annals of England. and one, of the system of which the people had been forewarned by souse of I the wiaest and most illustrious of their fellow-coun trymen, who had, during the last course of years, protested against the measures they saw leading to it. What the people had now first to consider re specting this system was, what steps. of any, could be adopted to mitigate nr a it. The Bills now pending its raeliament developed a plots of govern nig the people never before contemplated by Faig lislinten. Their forefather' would have warned such a plan. It would require even in the present generation more theta the patience of Job to endure it—and the email was such as called upon the good sense of the people to consider how they could best re-ist she encroachment's of arbitrary power, and in a legal amid coustitutional manner ward 4.ff the im pending tyranny that threatened tlarin—to arrest it, if possible, was their perainouin ditty.— (Cheers.) — The Bill. now pending is.
