Ile then proceeded to read a state-: mcnt, which opened with argmnents for the purpose of sliming: the great public utility of steam vesittlx. In sty doing,: be pre-,' :mined the great experience he. had had might justify him in drawing must conclu.sion of the probable utility and advantage . of the propeseel establishment of a Steam Vessel Company.--) He then read the prospectus, and a statement at considerable „ - - Air.

In conformity tyitli the Requisition of 1'27 Electors of Southwark, the H:on BArr. UFF convened a Ilket. ing of tlic Electors, Inhabitants of ne Borough; which was held in thp Town.hall 'yesterday at one o'clock. The hall was completely Shed. The Iltoir BAILIFF having taken the Chair, and tha quisiticn being I.t.ad; Mr. BLACK ro&.. to offer a petition for consideration. lie obserVed that the requisitionists were not perfectly unanimous in their choice.of the language, 't.y which they would express their wisho. Ile had a petition to present, and he believed others were to be proposed, perhaps equally good; it would be for, the assembly to adopt which they. most approved. On for Mer occasion*, he said, Reform was an object rather to be desired than hoped for ; but now the strong holds of corrup - sera beginning to yield to the attacks that had been so perseveribgly made upon them ' and a reform of the representa tion could not be far distant. Many of the counties of Eng land had .exprztaeti their opinions most strongly ; and the whole people of Lngland felt that this was the grand object which it bssate them to again. A necessity existed that' 0-Meth it* kfrect,lls4 • tbOUR be done to relieve the country from the pressure of iaxatiott, and to prevent a recurrence of those evils which occasioned it. After several remarks on the nature of taxation, be concluded by reading the follow ing Fetition : " To the Honourable Commons of the United KingdoM of Great Britain and Ireland, in Parliament assembled, " The humble Petition of the inhabitant Householders of the ancient Town and Borough of Southwark, in Public - 1 • Meeting assembled, 1 Slierieth—That your Petitioners, in the exercise of .their ccmstilutional right, respectfully and firmly- approach your Honourable House with a statement of the grievances under which they in common with their countrymen are suffering, and to suggest such remedial measures as in the opinion of your Petitioners are best calculated to affurd the desired relief. " That froin among the many evils of which your petitioners have to complain, they will briefly enumerate the following, viz. An excessively burdensome taxation ; the existence of severe and arbitrary legislative enactments, incompatible with the spirit of the British Constitution ; and at the caprice of the Minister of the day, the occasional suspension of'those laws by which the personal freedom of the subject was intended to be secured;—all of which evils, your petitioners are seriously im pressed with the conviction, proceed from the present impure state of the representation of the people. "'That the lavish expenditure of the public money, most wantonly-bestowed in the shape of grants, pensions, and sine cure places, upon persons whose only claims upon the admi nistration arise from the possession of undue Parliamentary in hence; the continuance of the increases) salaries of his Ala. jesty's *ervants, after the reasons assigned for that increase have ceased tO exist ; and the maintaining a large standing Army in timeof.. peace, are subjects that „have deeply engaged the attention of your petitioners : and it appears to them that the only mode of effecting the destruction of such pernicious extra ! valance, Is by withholding, the means necessary to its support. Your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray, that your HonOur able 11 ouse will be pleased to pass a bill for the repeal of the ftS.Seitnti taxes, and that you will proceed to. nialte a reduction of the general taxation of the country, as shall leave at. the dis posal of the Ministers of the Crown such funds as are necessary for national purposes only. " That your Petitioners conceive they would be guilty of a gross dereliction of their public duty, if they did not unreserv. edly state the fact, that your Honourable House has long ceakd 'to be the organ of public opinion; and that they cannot:dis. guise from themselves, the lamentable truth that the general measures sanctioned and adopted by Parliammtit during the past thirty Years, have produced nearly if not alt the evils under which this once flourishing. countly, is now labouring. I' otti Petitioners are tiLo of opinion, that so long as 3011 Members of your honourable !louse continue to be rem:lied by the nomi nation of Peers, and 107 by that of other powerful individuals and the tiov , !rnment, no real community of interest can exist between the representatives of the neople so called, and the people themselves. The existence of this qndue nomination is more szverely.felt by your Petitioners inteimuch as in the county of surrey, of which this 'borough forms an integral parr, 14 Members are returned , to Parliament, 11) of N'Thont are the. nominec of eight wealeity families. yont Petitioners, therefore, earnestly crave that yo u r lloneurahle House wilt be pleased to adopt such itinuediater measures as will secure to the people a full, fair, and equa l represe n tat i on in the COM- Molls Bosse or Parliament. " And yaitr Petitioners, &e." • _ . Mr. BLACK, in continuation, said, he had not proposed in the Petition any specific planof Return, being disposed to take us much as die House of Commons would give: anxious only to have the goes:ion so considered, as to get justice done to the people according to the principles of the Constitution. G. W. BuT LE seconded the 4iropolition at some length. Mr. Joust ELLIS assured the Meeting, that nQ man more ardently desired reduction of taxes and reform of Parliament than he did ,but he'approved of' something more specific. He would attack a bad system in the detail in the-manner in which Mr. flume had done. The machine was, indeed, most wofidly out of repair ; but he preferred mending, it by simple processes, to any more general a nd extensive plan. He thought, more over, that in this way much more would be attained. Here. posed a resolution for extending the right of voting in tive cayed Boroughs in Surrey, as well as an improvement in the mode of election, but the Resolution wax finally negativeth Mr. sirtuowastrrn spoke at considerable length against the funding system, which he described as the great cause of the national distress. He thought the benefits secured by the Re. volution of ItidB were over-ritual, inasmuch as it had intro. duced this walla system. in the.course of his speech, he an. mented with severity on the press of the country, and the land owners, who had incited the people to war, and encouraged it with all their might so long as it Worked well for themselves. He objected to the advocacy of she cause of reform on the prin ciples of natural right, as calculated to retard it, preferring to seek the it as necessary anti . expedient, s' Still he was friendly to reform, inasmuch ass Government was a trust reposed in the governors fur the benefit of the petiole, anti they had a just claim to tls best that could be tievissd or administered. He thought the'pecrpleof England had noi beco true to themselves -they had not: done all they might have done, even according to the present system: There were the csuntiet ; and they were very far from returning men who primarily sought tbepeople* interest. Again, the city of London had rejected. the mtaibers who sought reform and retrenelonent, acid returned one whO invariably opposed both. In the cases of Mr. Brougham, anti thelate Sir Samuel .in. the contests for Liverpool, 'Westmorland, and Bristbla the people had- given tiountentuice to a prominent objection to reform—via., that the boroughs af forded means of procuring !Ate it Parliament for men of talent and virtue, but without large fortunes. 'Whether it was owing to their ignorance or want of principle, he. could not say ; but certainly . he thoughttbe insolvent debtors, and other man. itancee, indicated something like the State of the people in Prussia, rather titan the honesty which was formerly the pricks and boast of England: At the dote of his speech, he ex_ preasd an opinion that the corruption of thespress had been greater and . more injurious th a n t ha t o f the rotate ,of Coln. mons.

Mr. CALVEUT observed, that it had not been usual for the numbers of Parliament tor Southwark to obtrude their opinions on the electors, whilst matters of public interest were under discussion.

What they, had time day dene, and. the manner in which it was done, would serve to support the high character for enlightened views and consistent conduct which the electors of Southwark had acquired.

The whale of the people of England are suffering under excessive taxation, and though the pressure rnay not be equal, yenta are grievously affected by it. The remedies then should - be uni versal. Reduction of taxation would, however, in his view, be of little importance if it did not lead to that most importeoz of all measures for this, phlntry's weal, a reform in Parliament.
