had struck his ear, which appeared to him to sound rather improperly as proceeding from *web a meeting as that. The passage which abated that the Members of the present House of Commons : were illegally chosen, seemed to Wm particularly ! batik to objection. For although they m i gh t t hinks mid he agreed with them in opinion, that the pre. sent elate of the representation was not what it was intended by theoConstittition to he, yet as the ..kistvolsera Were chnien according to the forms of she law of the country. every man must allow that they were legally chosen; but, upon the whole, Inasmuch as it wmg to the root of all the evils ehich afflict the counCry, he thought the amend ',rent hid the advantage over the original Address; osot although the Members were legally elected, • • t lie agreed that the House or Commons was on itautiotiolly composed, because it did not fully • :.d burly represent the people—and he would hallenge spy man, however attached to the present system, he would even challenge the gentleman .s ho advocated green bagsee-(Gereral mu deny this, or to say that et was not an evil which required a remedy. Would any man say that if rye people hail been fairly represented, as he wished to see them, and sa he hoped to see them before he died—would any man say that the country would r.ow have been burdened with 11w millions of debt ai.d the load of taxation that now oppressed it, and which impoverished the tradespeople, and reduced the labouring part of the population to beggary add starvation ? IVotil4l any man say that this would have 'tern the case if the people had been fait ly represented ? Cooki ally man say Reform was nut necessary. when, if be went into a company, he would hear every person join in opinion that it was so, except indeed those who received money nut of the taxes ?—( ilpplowse.)—litit the opinions of those persons he should never ask ; they were not oompetent to decide. If they were summoned on a :ury to decide on ibis question. they might be fairly .•Inallengerlorod would be rejected as unqualified. He wfrilld not ask them—but he would put it to every honest, unbiassed, unbought, unpaid man in the country, end lie was sure Ow) , would all agree in opi nion that it was absolutely necessary. Therefore they would not be doling their duty to themselves and to those who came after them. unless they manfully owl plainly stated to his Majesty their full sense and opinion of the true state of things. He should therefore agree to the amendment, if a few alters hulls which he should propose were made in it. First of all, with reference to the passage to which tie had before alluded, he proposed to leave nut the word illegal/y. and let it stand unconstitutionally In another part it was stated, that •• a great pot of the members of the House of Commons were nomiostred in violation of the law, by Peers of the Upper House:"—now, he would recommend to Leave oat that, beeanse it did nut heroine a meet mg like that to assume fact Du assertion of whit would violate thou rules and protesta. vi Inch were annually made by the House 0* Commons against all such proceeditigs, and whereby any such interfrreoce of Peers in the election of nit-tubers, was declared to be a breach of privilege, which it would be competent to any 1 inchoido4l to loitig regularly sunder the notice of risel-lonse. Again, it was said that certain " mo lied !wen fu/seie applied in the name of his Majesty ;" but they hail no documents befute them to spew that it was not by his comient and with his approbation—and, therefore, they cutlet tint take upon themselves to declare the assertion that it was se, to he false. There were s few other verbal amendments which the Hon. Gentleman proceeded to soggest, and concluded with saying. that if the r:eeting preferred the original Address, he would ,sot say that he should iito agree to it, but for his own pint lie much preferred the arneedinent.- -(.4pplause.) Mr. Bean again rose, and said. he was more coovinced than before, by what had fallen from the !Ids.

The lion. Member then entered into an enumeration of a va riety of the evils which the conduct or the present Ministers had entailed on the country ; and con cluded with observing, that as he hid now proved the question of Parliamentary Reform to be essen tially connected with the subject of the Requisi tion, he would not detain them longer, lest, by pro tracting their proceeding until daylight had left them, they should incur the reproach so justly the due of Musisters, of working in the &ilk.— (Laughter and great applause.)—lle then read a list Of gentlemen whom he proposed to form a Coup mitiee to impure the Address. Mr. MILLS, in reply, was willing to consent either to Mr. flume's amendments. ur the proposi tion of Mr. Whitbread, in order to make it pilot able to the meeting. He wished to defend himself from the imputation of the Member for Sliddleeent (Mr. Byng). So far was he from using tremolos.- üble expressions, that he defied any one to point out in Ins Address Hey one passage which was per sonally disrespectful to the. Monarch.

He would rather at ally time see a le-s important measure carried ousel mously, than witness ray division on the details of a great and interesting question, like that which had cotivoked them. lle trusted, at slily rate, that order would be preserved, and that the discussion would not descend into personal scurrility. Mr. MILLI begged pardon if he had uffended ; but the word treeson want to a mains suul— (Loughter)—stid was enough .to make him warm. He was ready to assent to culler of the ameedments. Mr. P.

He had the *aloe object in slew that the assembly were pursuing, namely, to endeavour to save all that had lint brew lost by the miscreancy of the Ministers. lie was contrid that his Address should be put aside, and that of Mr. Mills adopted. Ile was as anxious as any man for Parliamentary Reform ; lie aloe), had been so, because lie was convinced that these was no safety for the nation without it. With re spect to his Address, he rather hoped that it would be incorporated with the amendment. It was a bill of indictment molest Ministers, charging the grossest crimes of misrule. When they should conic to see it in print, they would then say, " Thank God, there is not a word of it left out !" On a recent occasion the Home of Commons had been treated, as was very well said •t the time, like a pack of hounds.--(Applanse.)....Witlitnit a Reborn oh' the Parliament, the country would be better without any Parliament at all. Mr. Sheriff WAITIIII•N then said, in putting the question that the Committee should withdraw tit prepare the Address, he had only one obsess** to make; his own convenience was nothing, fur he was only discharging his duty in attending un the meeting ; but the convenience of the meeting ought not to be lust sight of, and he hoped theretote the Committee would consult it, by using all possible dispetch. He then put the question, which was agreed to. Sir GEBABD NOEL then moved the following Resolution :.--- 3.

The maim, lire, over which your Majesty, by virtu of your august ialieritasee, Is destined to preside, was once happy as it was puwerful end great. It now exhibits the muureful spectacle of a great empire distracted in its efinnsels; its finances exhausted; the eultivetion of its sets, agriculture, sad commerce impeded; sod its mass of population rapidly retrograding their former advances towards the acquirement of wealth and happiners. The causes of this melairebely change are manifestly to he attributed to the pernicious Investor-ea and baneful inductive which have been invariably pursued and exercised by those Advisers of the Crown, who, during many years, have di. ►ected she National Commis and who have been rumbled to persevere in their ruinous projects solely by the support they have had the means of commanding from aa uncon stitutionally-elected Douse of Commons, which, during the whole of that period, has server been comp oefd of the fairly sod jualy.ebusen Representatives of the Cummuus of the realm. In proof of these, our assertions, we need only to state one fact, which surpasses ally thing that the history of this couutry, or the world can parallel; namely, that during this short period of unexampled estray.rgu o •r. in national ex. peediture, a greater sum has been actually spent, and coo sequeutly a greater burden of taxation imposed spun the industrious portion of the COMMUllily, to thirty years, than had beet. e%pendril in a thousand previous years, and in the reigns uf all the different races of Kings that ever swayed the Foglii.h sceptre.
