When it is considered that within a short period the middling and lows, orders of the people hare become, Crum the dissemioation of knowledge, insist intelligent, and .4 course have lately risen juin great political importance, he saw stone measures were indispensably ry to allay the discontent which prevailed; one great cause of which he believed proceeded from the want of an elective fran chise, fur which some practical remedy should hr applied. Owing partly to a want of this privilege were to be eseriht d the strange notions which many persons entertained of pro. lineal reform. He was of opiniuo, that were sueetisgs of 1 this kilod sometimes hell, they would correct those ex. toneous views, and silence the calumnies of those. whose policy, mid the °twilit,* tendeucy of *hose conduct, are to confound the well.mraning with the wuret enemies of the Stale. The policy of the pfesent Gisverimieut had beets 111 divide the people into two claimer, which bad, Ise contended, the worst effect. If the persons in the lower ranks of life see their infers regardless of ihrir iuterter, and icturuing to their petit iOllll answers nut evcri conveyed in courteous lan guage, it is then time far the higher ranks to interfere.— These is out y one remedy, and it is, Iliat the upper ranks Humid stand forward and support those of the people, who, feeling their sights, seek narrow su a MINCl(1.11 u The Leanr,' Gentleman then noticed the very orderly and proper behaviour of the rneetieg. Ile referred to the asses. lions, that a nuntlrer of the persous who signed Ilse requi sition had done so fur the pow'e of cello.; into power, and that they were hungry expegants of office. The utter falsehood of such obloquies was almost tuiroleri cccc s to re quire refutat' ; but be wonid ask, who are they who are charged with these views They are those who have bees. struggling against power, end who might have gaits's' it by preferring pru6t to principle, their wilds bring to Irate a land of vacs wet" Jiberq to their posterity, as the hest boon they rook, Bestow. For hiss own part, he solemnly declared that he would nut accept place or emolument to which lie had nut a fair and just claim. lie hail no desire list oflice. Ile, and his friends, whom he tenni, around him, bad by their own exertions, ranted themselves to the situation its which they now were. They lived gaily end merrily, marl fur his own part he did not relish the constraint necessarily attendant upon office. Ile therefore considered the charges brought agaiust himself and his friends most calumnious, shows', and false ; ■nd although he trusted the (widow!' advocated by the party to which he brimmed would lee adopted, he was nut tangnine enough to think that a Whig Adatinistratous worth! permanently gain an aseeudaney ; but should such be theease, it would soon he sees, that mimeo( their present opri. neat, would sneak over to their party, and share the favours then is, their poissesaiun.

It imported, that it was is, etosseqiieuce of the fla grant misconduct of Ministers, in their forego and domestic policy, the country was illiliCICOI wish, its present distress.— He did not think the state of the country could be much improved without a complete change of the present system. It was of little consequence whether the accusers of the Qom' were or were not brought to puitishinent, if their measures were not altered. Their waits ful and unprece. dented expenditure of the public money was the root of all the evil which the country suffered, and he would fear lessly I, that if no remedy be applied, it would be im possible to escape the ruin that threateutal it. Tim Learned Gentlrman then adverted to the commercial restrictions which eml mai the trade of the comity, arid commented iss strong trains on the etapid adherence to ancient absorilstoss and exploded maxims of policy, by which commercial nation, had been alienated,anil been ioduced to retort with interest on our trade the restrictions we loci aimed at theirs. Ile also adverted to the foreign policy of the try, by which he argued that an indelible stain had hies' fixed on the name of Britain. Since the Revolution no Government had ap peared inure averse to the exercise of pupolar rights than those who now manage our affyira. Ile would not enter into a detail of perticalar instance, of the display of this spirit.

It was apparent that the preseolisystem could nut be continued without the destruc tion of public peace or of public liberty.

Grant codas ...0 immediately ensued from the ►oud disapprobation which was expressed from all quarters. The CHICIRMAN Is ering nt length soeceedrd in Palming order, suggested that any individual who bad any thing to say in opposition to the Resolution, Phoold undoubtedly be heard. On this there was a general cry of " Hear him, hear I '" on which Dr. Mhos slated, that in ronscipteiteenf the liberty allowed him, be begged hi express hia iloacut tram the Itcso !esti 111 l now read. A more complete farce was never acted on the stage of the world, nor of the Pantheon.—(Here the hisses and cries of " Pat hiss oil" became so violent, dist the upeaker's voice was completely drowned.) The ritatattatt having restored order, expressed his °pi. Moo strongly un the impropriety of interriipi Mg the speaker, as the insist effectual way to come lo a speedy &Timm was to hear the individual to an rent. Dr. AITON then ressimed—They bad got, lie said, a liar !slain and a Merrimac, and else only thing neteammy to complete the farce was a Columbine.—[Here the speaker's voice W2S again drowned in a tuenultuuns clamour Of ilis. approbation.]—However "such the speech now delivered might have been disguised, it was delivered for a damnable porpose.—plere the eonfusion because greater than ever, and nothing was heard but •latent hisses, and loud and in cessant cries of " Out with him!"

That, in order to effect this object, and to maintain. if possible, their own power and influence in the cuuutty, they bare ascribed the discontents, which arose chiefly from their own misgovernment, to the prevalence of a sprit of dias loyalty and disaffection, which has had no natural or extru sive existence among the people.
