Mr. WHaierriN s2id, it would be desirable to exempt the Reporters from the operation of the Bill, and allow them to attend for the pori , ose rif reporting. The Honourable Member was prepar ed with an arneAtnent on the subject. Mr. MARTIN (of (7alway) expressed an opinion that it would he prudent to prevent rather than publish reports of ploceedings at such meetings.

" 1k NoV, ccrtain that the sr ningemtnt O f our 'wended Constitution is pro cceiltu.; ; it it said it will not rrse mble a ny that liow exist." ~,~ `-- The sootol part of the People, who, we are pp , rstiadeo, cotooitute H vast majority, will hear with ri gret, that several :11enihers of the House ' tit Lirds have thought roper to issue two Pao loosTs against the Nleastires tvioch the State of the Couutry imperiously demands for its safety. The first of these Proiests is directed against the tot ponishing Libel by 'l‘ ransportation. We w i s h to s pe a k witli doe respect of high charac ters'io the State, but we co , iceive that the rea sons offered by the Noble Sobscribers indi cate a narrow view of the dangers that threat en us, alit! the arwmtents they offer appear to us to he vet y weak in themselves.—The Noble Protesters speak as if the Libels which ex pose the Authors or Pi,blishers to such punish ment were the result of mere ignorance, hut they do not seem to have attended to zhe Provisions in the Bill ; for the pooishment of trinsportatiou ie only to be inflicted On persoos after they have a second time committed the saute offence, and con sequently must have been taught by previous punilonent the nature of their offence, and of the punishment to which they are liable.— Thi s w e conceive to be a sufficient answer to the first PhOTE6T. The second is directed against the Bill authorizing Justices of Peace to seize end detain arms, &c. We do not think that the Noble Protesters have shewo more sagacity on this than on the former occa sion, or that they have duly attended to the mea sore in goestion. They do not seem to recollect, that arms are not to be seized but on informa tion upon oath ; when there is reasonable ground to suppose that they are kept for unlawful purposes ; and then the Magistrates will have a discreti-wary power to act according to the character of the person who gives the information, and the grounds of probability which rotend it. Magistrates will themselves be responsible for their conduct on sort: occasions, and having the eye of the Law and oldie Public upon them, are not likely to abuse their authority. But the safety of the Country is at stake, anti the Noble Protesters do not scent to be aware of the danger which threateris the whole commooity. They refer to the legislative meastoesohat were adopted doting the rebellions of 1715 and 1745, but they do not seem to have made a ii;ht use of history, or to have taken a proper view of the difference between those periods and the present. The People at large, who had escaped from the dan gers of Poeb - icy under a bigotted Homan Ca tholic Prince, were alive to the dangers of its re storation, and were anxious to support a Pro totatit Family upon the Throne. But the REBELS of the present time, against n'how the Bill is directed, are enemies to the very none of King, and are aiming at universal siwliAtion and the entire destruction of the C o untry. Th e se cond PROTEST, therefore, tippeais to us to be as untenable as the other, and we (both( not that the People in genet al will flout oil!, ' , wet that it is subscribed to by one of the Royal Fitoily, whose private worth is so mull eatwut.:o, that they ‘Not,l,l douhtle6s be happy to and that his poli tical character and conduct were equally %veil cal culacd to excite the approbation of a People heartily attached to the 'prosperity of the illus trious House of BRUNSWICK, as Ile best Safe vuard of their Laws, their Liberties, and their We observe with regret the sort of controversy which took pl , ce last night in the House of Com mons between Mr. WonEHOUSE and Mr. COKE, as at this alarming crisis the utmost unanimity ought to prevail among those to whom the wt bare of the Country is entrusted. The Let ters tr , ni Lord SuFrlctn, and the Loan CHAN CELLoR, introduced by Mr. WoDEHOUSE, hilly vindicated the conduct of both of those Noble Lords.—lt is much to be regretted that Mr. COKE thought proper, in adverting to the venera ble Head of the Law, to say, that " if his Lord ship's memory was bad, it was the worse for the Court over which he presided."—We believe it will be admitted by all best capable of judging, that his Lordship's faculties are in full vigour, and are ~exercised with conscientious rectitude, nor can it be wonderful, if his Lordship, amidst his numerous and important duties, had not accurate ly recollected all that occurred years ago upon a matter of inferior consideration. AIF,ETING IN COVENT-GATIDEN. A i&ur;:•3ition having been presented to the ilion-BAntr: , of Westminster, tequesting hint t o (7 ,11 a Meeting to con!,ider of the proceed. itto now pending in Patliament, he appointed it to take place this day. At an early hour the old Wes , minster Platform was removed from PALsce-yrd, and erected opposite RicnAapsos's Hotel. At one o'clock the High Bailiff rook the Chair, and proceeded to read the Requisition, requesting, at the same time, that every one should have a patient hearing. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, who had arrived, accompanied by Mr. HOBHOUSE, commenced the business of the day by a long Ad. dress, which took up nearly en hour, in which he attempted to justify the votes he had given in Par liament, and he trusted that the Resolutions and Petition which would be adopted this day, would receive that attention which the serious subject requited. Mr. Lams then proceeded to address the Meeting with considerable vehemence, and tat a quarter past two there were about 3000 persons assembled ; their conduct at this time appeared orderly. When our Reporter left, Mr. LAMB W3S addressing the Meeting. ANOTHER SMITIIFIE,LD MEETING. A Letter having been sent to flusT, signed by 20 or 30 persons, calling themselves house keepers, requesting him to take tie Chair this day at 12 o'clock, a waggon drew up opposite Cloth Fair, into which 20 or 30 dirty-looking fel lows immediately 'jumped, and proceeded to unfurl New Flags, with the usual " Texts" of Sedition. This proceeding having been completed, a bundle of wands was introduced, and must of the per sons having seized one, they leaped from the waggon, and proceeded with their flags to a gin-shop, Opposite Newgate, where the greater pert regaled themselves with the arti cles sold by the landlord, until they were desired by the officers to move on; which they complied with, by placing themselves opposite the Conuer, in which Mr. Shetiff RoTHWELL, with several Aldermen, had stationed them selves, in addition to the other piecieutions that were used for the preservation of the peace of the City.—A few minutes past one, a Hackney Chariot made its appearance, in; which %cot Hu NT another person.

SUN-OFFICE, HALF-PAST THREE O'CLOC‘' We stop the l'ress to state the following account of Radical Proceedings this day. At three o'clock► the Meeting at Smithfield concluded, when a Party, consisting of about 700, the most desperate looking Ruffians ever seen, left Smithfield, told" the way of Holborn, and Long• Acre, to Coon" Garden, where the Westminster Meeting °ls the❑ held, armed with bludgeons, and carrying a black Flag, with the inscription of " LibertYar " Death ; Fight for your Rights like Men, en d " not be Sold like Slaves." When the High Bailiff requested them to take their Flag •t''°7' they resisted in the most audacious manlier' upon which the Meeting was dispersed. '' ruffians during their progress through the stree t° vented the most virulent imprecations end de' nouncements. The Second Party had not sera. rated when our Reporter came sway. THE THEATRES. DRURY-LANl5.—The Comedy of Wild Oats W s represented last night at this Theatre, by corn' (nand of Prince LF,OP,LD, as we announced 13iC week. His Royal Highness was received on 1119 entrance with a warmth of applause, by a very 0' melons audience, that indicated more than lb e usual compliment generally paid to distinguish ° , i Visitors on such occasioos.
