A numerous and highly respectable meeting of the Landed Interest of %Vest Kent was holden at the Star Inn, Maidstone, on Thursday last, to take into consideration the present depressed state of Agriculture. Soon after H o'clock, Jeans Ewa, Esq. rose and briefly stated, that the meeting was called by few friends to agriculture, and he proposod John Calor, Esq. Chsiraitan, which being seconded, was carried usissiimously. Alter the Chairman had taken his seat. Alleaj.ess pepsin row sadthis lostappa s fartandlily lor him, wanted no explanation, it vim evident something must he done to protect the farmitigiiiterests. Souse Gentlemen had drawn up ssevertil Resolutions sod a Petition, which he beg ged might be read. The Resolutions nod Petition were then read, and severally put to the company, all of which passed unanimously. On the Resolution passing that the County Members be requested to present the Petition— W. P. HONTWOOD, Esq. rove and said, on the present occasion it was needless fur him to say ally thing; he seri convinced of the necessity of some measures being adopted for the relief of agricul ture. He regretted 'much the absence of his worthy colleague (Sir E. Kinitchbull), as notbiag but a severe and protracted illness prevented his intending that day. With regard to the Petition, he would give it every possible support, and should always be happy to protuote the best interests of the county. Mr. ELLts stated, in confirmation of what had fallen from the Hun. Member. that he had that morning receives! a letter from Sir Edward Knetch. hull, stating his inability, from ill health, of attend ing the meeting, but that he should be in London at the end of the week, and that lie would give the Petition hie warmest support. Or On the thanks of the meeting being given to the County Members fur their promised support, Mr. Hoe TWOOD again expressed his regret at the absence of his Honourable Colleague, who, he said, was as warmly attached to their cause as he (Mr. Honywood) was, not only from iuclination, but duty also. For Ins own part, he should always most readily and happily attend to the wishes of his cote. stituents. and he hoped that all his public acts would meet wish their approbation. Ritmo. A Len: T, Esq. in rising to propose that the thanks of the Meeting be given to the Chair. mass. soul, that he was rejoiced on his (the Chair mine.) account that he had had so little trouble, but lie himself was sorry on account of the coun try, for he could scot but grieve that there was so pressing an occesi )))) for unanimity. aid he felt con fident that if every farmer ill the county was et the Meeting, that there would out be a dissentient voice at to the necessity of the petition which had just been proposed. It was impossible for any body to live in the country, unless something was done to relieve the !soiled interests. lie did hope that the Legislatuse would see the necessity of Bilious be ing fed by British corn, and that they would at last afford proteciion to the British farmer. The prospect in the agriculturist was most deplorable when it Wl4 considered that wheat, the prime ne cessary of life, could not be _raised without the loss of 100 per cent., at least that was the case in that part of slit mildly its which lie lived. An acre of wheat could duce in 'even adjoining perished to . his hail not been more than 61. ; and he was gent.: sure he spoke within eompes• when he asserted that those iia far the heist three years. lied not Produced their re I. !ma. and labour, sail the cultivator had only ini:i..ssed upon the ditninution of his capital, a sysiem which Insist be productive of loud and speedy r.iin. It ears nut only the Gentlemen who pommelled 111110 J PAICE Id. large landed property, brit there was a class of little farmers who were feeling the distress co .s.rlerae bly. If such persons as were these a‘erruieled needed protection, and who hunt their appeerairce .reined not to feel so much the necessity of such a measure, how much stronger must it be felt by the occupiers of little farms, who, wish the greartst ecouwny and industry, could not lite, whose eitustion was so much worse than tire I.e. bower who toils from Monday to Saturday. as the former has to add 'tryst anxiety of mind to 61.514 privatiens. not that the labourer feels any priva tions, as under the pr.-sera system he is hue support. Through the visitaii iiii of Providence they had had but scanty crops. and the Legtelrewie hod nut protected them. He looked to. tivrt Nlerting out only for the support of the A k riew:- lurid interest, but the manufacturing •100. 1.4 there was no use in the shopkeeper filling his shop if the former had no money; for if the farm e r had .e the labourer had Done, and the manufactured gili 1% might be spoiled in the shopkeeper's warehurree, for they could not be purchreed. Time merruhic three by this time must have learnt, that the only wealth of the country was the produce of the laud, rod that gold and silver were merely the token* of sacks of corn and cattle, which would be too cum bersome for the pocket. He hoped, that a. peti tions would be seat from every county, the Legis lature would at last attend to them. He con cluded by returning thanks to the County Members for their promises of support. THomas RYDER, Esq. was convinced of the pro priety pf petitioning Parliament. He entirely coin cided in what had been said by Mr. Allison, and he lamented as much as any man could do the ne cessity of calling that Meeting. Mr. Ews only regretted that his tongue could not give uttermice to what he felt on this subject, but all that he could do should be done to attain their object. . - Mr. WINCH wished to know whether nny thing respecting hops was embodied in the Petition, as he considered a deduction of the hop duty w. 4 necessary. Where he resided (Hawkhu►st) there was scarcely any thing but hops grown—hops was the staple commodity of that part of the county. They writ much burdened with poor, every one could employ many more hand•. but they 114,1 ,rot property to pay them. The poor-cos at the pre. sent lime was more than twenty shillings iu the pound. Mr. Winch war proceeding, when The CHAIRMAN said the Petition bad already been adopted; it stated agriculture in genvral, and did not go into any particulars of corn, hops, &c.
