Via. 2 2i'Lid PRICE mea,ate that proposed to give the tier! of representa tion to large t;Z:pAistions, even with a 101.' franthise, in •tearl of letting it renia7if in the nomination of boteragli mongers, teas a measure that Wdl!tl not confer heriefit ey rite people. He thought that this alone ebsrwed that the ,irofessed object of the Bill.was to unite the Middle and lower classes, and to giie to them a grea'er share In the government of the country araa they had hitherto pos -eased. lf the Ministers had the intention of uniting the higher and t!fiddly classes by their Pill / against he people, he thought 1,..yy had mistaken their Mark, for the 101. voters in the menufacturing d stricts were now pursuing a course that . sirtivrtd that such an anticipation would never be fulfilled. Jo fact, that body of men ai whose hands the franchise wotild 're placed, if the ten-poundquaNitation was passed into a iaw, were now looking out for representative', whose pro fessions and opinions were entirely opposed fd the isolated interests and opiLlo!le of the aristocracy. In Bolton two larval candidates were if, the field ; and in Manchester lir. Cobbett was supported by a ft ry strong party of the xpected constituency, and the most arietett:tie man that stood the slightest chance of success, was tit. Mark Phillips, who' Was as near a radical in his politica t possible; and at Leeds there wits every probabili•y that the eloquent Mr. Macaulay would /Ye rr.turned. With these fitcts before his eyes, he really mold not conceive bow toy man could arrive at the conclusion that - the late Bill would' unite the aristocracy and the middle classes against the people. In reference to what bad been said, that the Reform Bill was wiertbless, because it did not give to the people all their rights, he would say, that he was glad a restitution of lights afee made to any class •,f society ; and though he wished she principle of the Bill had been more liberal, yet be did not think it either politic ~r wise for men to exclairn against others getting their rights because they could not get theirs. Ile took the Bill with all its faults, as a boon ; as a means of accom plishing a great work peaceably and without violence; and 'te believed that once passed into a law it would be a Mesas •if gradually extending the possession of civil rights with safety, and without militating against the prosperity of the State. It should be remembered that no pledge was given -hat the people would rest satisfied with this measure of Reform, or consider it as a final measure, for they who knew any think of the principles of civilized life knew well chat Governments and all other human institutions must VINTRY WARD, OCT. 18. ItT a MEETING of the INHABITANTS of this WARD, held this day, at Cutler's Hall, Cloah-Lane, to take into consideration the propriety of niiestt on the rejection of the Reform Bill by the Houve of Peerg, THOMAS WHITBY, RI., Deputy, in the Chair, The following Resolutions were moved, seconded, and carried unanimously : Ist._.That this Meeting deeply regretthe rejection of the Re form Bill, and they trust that Parliament will be prorogued for the shortest possible period, sufficiently only to enable his Ma jesty's Ministers to introduce a new Bill into Parliament; fully as extensive in its principles and provisions as the one rejected by the-lAguse tttirtls,,, 2d.—That this Meeting trdct that ht.; Maleity's Ministers will give a distinct pledge to the country that there will be no unnecessary procrastination, - no compromising on their part, in order that the country may continue to repose unliinited confi dence in his Majesty's Government, which will enable the dis creet part of the community to effect the repression of tumult, prevent the destruction of property, and other manifold evils which are ready to burst . upon the country. 3d.—That this Meeting do present a dutiful and loyal Address td hl paternel and patriotic Dlajesty; Misfiring him of its in ' creased attachttient to hiS atigust• person, prallng filth to retain his present Ministers, and to aftbrd them every support which the eXigendy df the times requires for enabling them to carry through. Parliament such a Reform Bill as may be calculated effectually to restore to the people t heir just and undoubted rights. 4th.-;-That a vote of thanks be nOw passed, and are hereby given, td his Majesty's Ministers, for the zeal and perseverance Chef hate displayed in their great eitertietriS tel carry the Reform Bill, and that this Meeting trust, that with the confidence of the King, the Commons House of Parliament, and the people, as well as a great portion of the House of Lords, that they will in trodUce a measure equally as efficient as the last into Parlia ment, With a firm determination to carry the same by every eOnstitntional means with as little delay as possible;- this Meet ing feeling that the Petite and prosperity of tile country depend Upon the passing of the Reform Bill into law. sth.-1 hat the Address now read be agreed to, and signed by the Chairman, and be forwarded to Lord Melbourne, and re questing his Lordship to present the same to his Majesty. 6th,—That the vote of thanks to his Majesty's Ministers, signed by the Chairman, be forwarded to the Right Honourable Earl Grey. 7th.—That a Committee be appointed, consisting of twelve persons, for the purpose of watching the progress of the intended Reforni Bill, and be requested to make such reports to the in habitants as they may deem necessary. Bth.--.That the thanks of this Meeting are due to Henry Win chester, Esq., Alderman of the Ward, for calling the present Meeting. 9th.—That the thanks of this Meeting be presented to Mr. Deptity Whitby, for his polite attention and strict impartiality in the Chair. . . REFORM 'MEETi&g: Milled upon to support the King, as indeed he had good ieilolf to do, Llctiose, he was the only King who for cen turies had :Tat upon tiha British throne who had though , proper to allow, untie?' his sanc t ion; a measure to be sub mitted to Parliament for the estensihle purpose of ulti• mately alleviating the sufferings of the people, which had been accumulated under a long and wicked career of mis rule. And by whom had this measure of -Reform been op. 0091 d ? ly wheat had it been scouted, and thrown back upon the Ministry By the Peers, —the saucy, proud, and imperi..us aristocracy. This it'earire, the Reform was opposed not only by the aristocracy but also by those who ought to b 4 the messengers of peace and good will in the land—the Lords Spitittfal—(Cries of " No, Bishops") —who had shewn by their recent cO,:fiduct that they were not worthy of their sacred calling. These L or d s S p iritual had acted towards the people in a manner that ought to bring down upon them the censure of every man; for b) their recent %lifts they might be said to have hit the King " a slap in the face.''—(Laughter.) He was in some measure glad that they had dotie so; for there had long been somewhat of an adulterous connexion betwixt the Church and State, and he had strong hopes that this slap would have the effect of causing a complete divorce from bed and board betwixt the parties, so tha• they will never more be united.—(Cheers.) He hoped that by this. rejection Ecclesiastical power and abomina tion had received a mortal stab, and now that the suici dal wound was given, it was the duty of the people to keep it open and wide ; so as to let out those springs of corrupt life by which it had hitherto supported its exis tence.—(Cheers and cries of " Ui.frock the Bishops.") Ht concluded by saying, that the people ought never to for get the breach that had been cleated by the Peers, but to make it their study to keep it open ; and no course would be so effectual as union in the cause of Reform, in which they were then embarked. The resolution which hau been read had his unqualified support.—(Cheers.) • • NORWICH, Ocr. 18. _ . As soon as the intention of the operatives to proceed to the Hall in one body was known, accompanied by bands and flags, some excitation was manifested, and some little trepi dation felt as to the resiilt of the procession, by a few of those who look upon the assemblies oI the 15'e6pie dangerous. But the operatiVei thethselies soon put to flight all these fears by a bill of directiOng to the different Unions, in which they recommended the continuance of that order and peace by which the city had hitherto been distinguished. Between nine and ten o'clock the operatives began to assemble in' three different wards, and, accompanied, by their flags and bands proceeded to the Castle Meadmir, the appointed for the union of all the different bodies. Here they were regularly formed into line, and about half-past eleven o'clock moved towards Andrew's Hall, by Oxford-hill, White Lion-lane, the Market, London-street, and Gurney's bank. There could 'not have been less than 10,000 persons in the procession, throughout the whole of which the greatest order pre vailed. The Hall was nearly a third full on the arrival, and they were received with loud cheers, by those as sembled, all the bands playing " God save the King." The Mayor, on opening the meeting, was received with the I..uilest cheers, amid which he was called to the chair, on the motion of J. B. Tooke, E,q. seconded by A. Hudson, Esq. who highly complimented the Mayor on the libe rality of his conduct, the indefatigable discharge of his duty, and his never failing attentions to the wishes of his fellow-citizens. The folowing resolutions were then moved and seconded by T. Bignold, Esq.. Isaac Wiseman, E.q., Dr. England, P. W. Nichols, Esq., J. W. Rob herds, jun. Esq., N 5 Palmer, Esq., Rev. Archdeacon Glover, Mr. Ketton, Mr. Richardson, and Mr. Rust, The meeting was also addressed by Archdeacon Bathurst, the Rev. Prebendary C. H. Wodehonse, and R. H. Gurney, Esq., our Member, who was most enthusias tically greeted. It was moved by THOMAS BIGNot.n, jun. Esq., and seconded by Dr. ENGLAND : 1. That notwithstanding the recent rejection of the Reform Bill by a majority of 41 in the Upper House of Parliament, the inhabitants and electors of the city of Norwich are still im pressed with the deepest conviction that a speeds compliance with the almost unanimously declared wishes of the united kingdom for this measure of Reform, or for one of equal effici ency in its principle and leading provisions, is not less absolutely necessary to insure the public tranquillity, than it is essential to the permanence of the Constitution and to the prosperity of the country. 2. That they therefore deem it a solemn duty at the present eventful crisis to tender to his Majesty the strongest assurances of their continued and unabated attachment to his Majesty's person and Government, and of their ardent hope that such Constitutional measures, as may be completely effectual for the attainment of this most important object, will be forthwith adopted by his AL jesty under the advice and with the able as sistance of the present Ministry, who are equally the tried and faithful servants of the Crown, and the firm and consistent M.

He (Mr. Frazer) never was a very great admirer of Kings, he had seei, and read of so many who proved themselves any thing rather than " the fathers of their people ;" but he wasin-' duced to give the one who now sat on the throne his en tire confiAence.—(Cheers.)

ADDRESSES TO THE KING AND THE MINISTRY, Bakewell Town Hall, 13th Oct. 1831. AT a PUBLIC MEETING of the INHA BITANTS of BAKEWELL and the NEIGH• BOURHOOD, in the County of Derby, held this day, pursuant to Requisition, WILLIAM POLE THORNHILL, Esq., in the Chair, The following Resolutions were unanimously agreed to Mr.. THOMAS &urn, in proposing the second resolu tion, commenced by reading the report of the intervie , which took place between the -deputies from several parishes in London and Earl Grey, from the Morning; Chronicle, and which, he said, would shew to the country that, however the King might be worthy the confidence et the meeting,what it had to expect from the present Ministry. He contended that this language of Earl Grey plaint) .bowed what kind of a Bill the Ministry, which cal:e , itself a Reforming Ministry, intended to pass.

Yesterday a requisition, signed by sixteen gentlemen, was presented to the Mayor, to call a meeting for the pur pose of enabling the seamen in this port to express their loyalty to his Majesty. The Mayor appointed the meet ing to be held on board the Earl of Liverpool, a West Indianan, this day, at one o'clock. It was intended that the meeting should be as exclusive as possible, and in conse quence no notice was given; but long before the hour appointed there was a numerous assembly of the sailors. Captain Claxton was voted into the chair. He stated that he had called them together that they might declare their loyalty to the King, and that they would give the Magis trates any assistance, if necessary, to quell any, riots. So far it was well. But when the object of the vote was stated, to form a body-guard to protect Sir Charles We therell, on his public entry into this city, a general burst of indignation resounded from every quarter. Mr. Hall, a ship-owner, addressed the meeting, and told them it was not competent for the Chairman to put any resolution to the meeting withuut its being proposed by some other gen tleman. Some gentleman did propose that the sailors would declare their attachment to his Majesty, which Mr. Hall seconded. Captai❑ Claxton said this resolution did not go far enough ; but they must render the Magis trates any assistance they may want in case of rioting. The meeting became clamorous, and would not allow it to be put. Captain Claxton hereupon, stamping his foot on the deck, said, " I disperse this meeting," and ordered the gentlemen out of the vessel. Hereupon the meeting as sembled on the shore, and voted Mr. J. W. Hall into the chair, when the following resolution was unanimously passed, with the exception of one hand That the sailois of this port, on the present momentous oc casion, earne,tiy express their decided and loyal attachment to his Maj'•sty and his Government ; but they will not allow them selves to be made a cat's-paw of by the Corporation, or their paid agents." Alter voting thanks to the Chairman, and giving three cheers for his Mrjesty, the meeting separated, highly pleased with their having defeated Captain Claxton and his party. A BRISTOLIAN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—You will be glad to hear that a requisition more numerously signed than any h e retofore known in the county Stafford, has induce d the Hi g h Sheriff to convene a county meeting on the 25th instant. Among the signa tures arc many of the names of the most influential of the county gentry, and the largest land owners ; some of the Clergy also have signed the requisition. I need hardly say, the object of the meeting is to express confidence in the pre. sent Govei nment, and to implore his Majesty to continue the services of his present Ministers to the country at the prerent eventful crisis. Here as in every other county, the great bulk of the people are Reformers ; the Clergy as a b o d y, are averse to change, and cloak their opposition to the late 13111 under the pretext of its being of too sweeping a nature to meet their moderate views but no matter, it the Bill had gone so far as the disfranchisement of one bo rough only, it would have equally met with their abuse. The time is fast arriving when no Clergy, no Borough_ mongers, no House of Lords will avail in bolstering up the old system of patronage Government. " Salus pub lics suprema lex esto." You will hear in due time of the proceedings at the meeting at Stafford, and whether there Is any truth in the rumour so kindly circulated by Anti. Reformers, that the people in the country are getting tired of the Reform question.—Your obedient servant, Oct. 17. A STAFFORDSHIRE MOORLANDLR. friends of the people. 3. That an address, founded on the above resolutions, and signed by the Mayor on behalf of this meeting, be presented to his Majesty. 4. That the Mayor and the Members of the City be requested to present the address to his Majesty. 5. That the grateful acknowledgments of this meeting be pre sented to the only Prelates who voted in favour of the Bill, namely, the Bishop of Norwich, and our fellow-citizen, the Bishop of Chichester. 6. That our most cordial thanks be presented to the Right Worshipful the Mayor, for his kindness in calling and presiding over the present meeting, and for the steady consistency he has ever manifested in maintaining and supporting the rights and interests of his fellow-citizens. ISAAC WISEMAN, Esq. proposed the following Address to his Majesty, which was seconde,l by Mr. SAMUEL RICHARDSON, and unanimously c irried : " TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. SIRE,—We, your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, the inhabitants and electors of Norwich, in Common Hall assembled, approach your Majesty with sentiments of grateful esteem and attachment for the firmness and patriotism displayed by your Majesty in promoting the happiness of your people, by calling to your councils Ministers who have proved themselves worthy of, and who emir ently possess, our unabated confidence. " And we humbly beg leave to represent to your Majesty our entire persuasion that the continuance of those Ministers in theit important stations at the present critical period is indispensable to the maintenance of public tranquillity. " We therefore earnestly intreat your Majesty to employ such constitutional means as your Ministers may advise, to accom plish the passing of that great national measure, " The Bill to amend the Representation of England and Wales,"or some other measure equally efficient, being deeply convinced that such a legislative act is absolutely necessary to promote the peace and prosperity, and to restore the rights and liberties of your people. After cheers for the King, the Ministers, the 150 Peers in favour of the Bill, Reform, and groans for the Bishops, the meeting, which was never equalled here in any respect, very quietly dispersed. HALIFAX, OCT. 17, 10 r. m. I have just attended the most numerous meeting of the Halifax Political Union ever before held. The proceed ings were extremely peaceable, and an address to the King, praying him to retain in his service the present Ministry ; a memorial to Earl Grey, encouraging him to be firm ; and an address of thanks to the Duke of Sussex, and the patriotic minority in the House of Lords, were voted un animously, and amidst great enthusiasm. Several of the speakers remarked with great severity upon the conduct of the Bishops, and the manner in which these sentiments were received evinced how deep is the feeling in the public mind against those dignitaries of the church. It had been arranged that M. Storks, jun. Esq. (son of the gentleman who offers in opposition to Charles Wood, Esq. son-in-law of Earl Grey) shou!d take the Chair, but I believe the violent conduct of the Manchester Radicals, which is much deprecated here by Reformers of all classes, had frightened him. The post is about to close, and I have not time to write more. BOLTON, OCT. 17. (FROM OUR OWN C ORRESPONDENT.) As the time approached for commencing the business of the meeting, considerable crowds of people began to as semble in the immediate vicinity of Bradford-square. About half-past ten o'clock a tolerable large number of the residents on Bolton Moor came in a body, having some flags and banners, with mottos, and headed by a drum and fife. Among the mottos were the follovving :—" United and be firm."—" Thou shalt do no murder."—" Eng land expects every man to do his duty."—" Britons be united, and who dare oppose us."—" To the memory of the massacre at Matto:hinter, on the 16th of Aug. 1819." —And under this was also the following—" What Last thou done, thy brother's blood crieth out to me from the eartb."—On a black flag were the following inscriptions: —" Moro, but no Peers."—" No parson legislators."— " Dowa with the boroughtnongers."—" Radical Re form."—There were also two tri-coloured flogs, and several others containing various devices emblematic o f libert y . The party, who were led with the drum and fife, accom panied by the banners, then proceeded through the principal streets of the town to Little Bolton, to conduct their bro ther Reformers resident there to the meeting, and did not return until just before the business of the day com menced, which was a few minutes before twelve o'clock. The number of spectators gradually increased, and at half past twelve o'clock, on a moderate computation, there were 6,000 present, and it was obvious, that had an arrange ment been made to stop the various workshops in the town for a few hours, that the assemblage would have been ho mense. The Committee had interested themselves to pro cure for the workmen such a favemr, and waited upon several owners of the large cotton• mills and other em ployers of great bodies of workmen, but we cannot learn that in any one single instance was the request acceded to. The business of the meeting was opened by Mr. Brown proposing that Mr. Peter Staton be appointed Chairman, which was seconded, and carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN then addressed the meeting in an ap propriate speech ; after which he read the following reso lutions, and while reading them he was interrupted with cries of " Down with the Bishops." " Down with the Peersthisls..ll—t a n I d Aa lo c y es al fu a l , l id confidence i i s 1 Majesty, l a c ., e s s i t n y c , er f i o t t y m a t n ie d d patriotism of their beloved Sovereign, and pledges itself to sup port his Majesty by every means in its power, in his endeavours to extend civil liberty to all classes of his subjects. 2. That in order to secure peace and contentment amongst the great body of the people, to maintain public credit, and to revive national prosperity, a Reform Bill (more . extensive in its details and provisions than that recently submitted to Parliament by his Majesty's Ministers, and rejected by a majority of the House of Peers) ought to be immediately submitted to the Legislature for adoption. 3. That as the principles of the Constitution declare every in dividual who contributes to the maintenance of the State should have a vote in the choice of his representatives, this meeting is of opinion that this right can only be fully secured by a House of Commons, chosen on the broad basis of annual Parliaments, universal suffrage, and vote by ballot. 4. That this meeting views with indignation and abhorence, the unchristian conduct of the Lords spiritual in voting for the Reform Bill, and cannot but express its astonishment that the professed Ministers of peace should so far forget their sacred character as to sow the seeds of discord throughout the nation, thereby placing the lives and property of his Majesty's subjects in extreme jeopardy. upon these resolutions, be presented to our most gracious Ma testy, by Lord King. Mr- WALTER. O'Catutor L, in proposing the first reso iution, said that at - the present momentous crisis be felt peared e enough palpahl that the next Bill that would be brought forward would fall considerably short of the las. in the extension of political rights; that its main featuri would be conciliation towards the aristocracy, and th it it would be so cut down and despoiled as to suit the Houtt of Lords, so that it would pass that House. The Housi of Lords would not pass any Bill that would benefit thi people ; therefore to prevent the conciliating process, which it was obviiius was going on betwixt the Ministry and thr House of Peers, it was the duty of the people, now that they had beat so contemptuously treated, to claim frost Parliament more than the lost Bill professed to grant, in stead of yielding a tacit assent to a new measure that pro. posed to give less political right, to be less effective, lest liberal, and to confer probably a less extended franchis' . . than Lord John Russell's Bill.—( Cheers.) Was it the proper course for the people, the insulted, enslaved people, now to ask fur or give their support to a Reform Bill that limited the franchise to ten-pounders?—(No, no.) The people having now been turned round upon by the higher classes, with a haughty denial to a most reason ride, conci liating, and moderate demand, must assume their propel station, and tell the King and his Ministers that the measure of Reform to be now brought forward, instead of beine contracted, must be expanded in its principles ; that the Bill must be a more liberal Bill, and that despite or the proud man's contumely and the rich man's con tempt, the people would now have their rights, their whole rights, and nothing short of the whole of their rights.—(Loud cheers.) The British people would no longer be enslaved by the aristocracy; and if that body conceived that the present agitation which prevailed in the country would subside, they were much mistaken. The love of liberty was too deeply rooted to be crushed by the rejection of the Reform Bill. If the Peers calculated upon the habitual patience of the people they calculated wrong, for the people now undersand their rights too well to relax in their firmness; and whatever the Noble Lords might think on the subject, though they might lull themselves with the treacherous hope that time would work a re-action, yet he believed that a storm was arising in the land that would cause the Peers to rue the day when they rejected the Reform Bill.—(Cheers.) It wee a matter of history, and instructive, inasmuch as it pointed out the despotic nature of the Peerage, that the Peers hao not before voted against tie King since the days of the first Charles, and in doing so now, it was because he had given to h theissr iewtoiopnlet. Th e Bishops, who gen e rally w e re a worldly o a measure that was calculated to be of b e nefit minded calculating, body, had thrown nearly the whole of their weight also against the King and the people.— (Cries of " Down with the Bishops.") For of what use w e re they to the country, and what faith could be put in them as men, and h ow could they hope for the respect of the people, w h e n their conduct w as so muc h oppose d to the sacred n ature of their office ?—(Cheers, and cries of " No Bishops.") Let, then, the people shew the Peerage and the hierarchy that they would not supinely Bill had been reject e d, th a t th e p eo pl e relinqui s h their just and con stitutional rights, and that, now the Ring's called for, and w ould have, a Reform more ext e n s i ve i n its e tal nature,in its more eompreliebsive in its details, and mor e principles,—and one that wo u ld a l one secure Peac e to the community ; and if the people were firm and unanimous (which, doubtless, they would be) what power could stand against them. Then let the people, in their ardent love of liberty, recollect that, " United, they stand ; divided, they fall."—(Loud cheers.) Mr. ST.taxin, as seconder of the second resolution, mus t say that he differed from the last speaker is to the conduct of the Lords. That body had an undoubted respect right to reject the Bill if they chose--(Mursiurs)—and he for one thanked the Lords for rejecting the Bill. They knew well that the Bill would not satisfy the people.— (A voice said, " Was that their motive for rejecting it?") D e (the speaker) contended that it was a worthless Bill. Did it give him (the speaker) any privilege ? No, not a s ingle one. The Ministers had stood upon very weak ground in btinging into Parliament the late Bill, which bad been called a sweeping Bill ; sweeping it certainly was, as it swept away the rights and privileges of the poor electors under the present system to give them to the 101. householders. What had Brougham said in respect to this much lauded Bill ? lie who went down upon his bonded knees to the Bishops, a set of wicked tyrants, and implored them to pass the Bill. He said that it would extend the franchise to the wealth of the country; that is, to the middle classes. The policy of this measure was then to cement the middle classes to the Whig Ministry, and the reward for their support would be a share of the loaves and fishes; and Lord Brougham knew as well as any man that, the support of the middle classes thus obtained, would enable the Government to make mi more effective stand against the people ; and that they had plenty of slaves, working men like himself, under them, whom they would keep down. He therefore contended that the Lords had rejected a Bill that would never have effected any gund for the people, and, in doing so, he cared not from what motives, they had only done an act of jus tice. lie contended it was an insult to use the terms wealth and middle classes as synonymous. The middle classes produced no wealth ; nor yet did the aristocracy ; it was the people—the I:alarming people—who produced i wealth, in fret, the reala staple of the t country.jn the rig kn ad And and le were excluded from any partici pationhts imparted by the Reform Bill. His ad vice to the people was to be steady, and never to rest con tent until they had obtained their rights.—(Cheers.) Mr. JOHN DEGAN said that he had long held the opi nion that every man ought to possess a vote in the choice of the representatives of the n ation ; and, though he held this opinion, yet he quite disagreed with the last speaker, when he said that, by supporting the late Reform Bill, w e should be signin g our r i g h ts away . H e thought it w as rather too great a s t re t c h o f reason i ng , to may that Mr. THOMAS THORNLEY said the great and important question was whether the people of England would submit to be in the hands of the 101. householders, or in the lands of the boroughmongering faction—and whether they would or would not have their rights?—.(Cheers, and Ties of" We will have our rights.") Then if they would inve their rights, they must have a better Bill, as the re .eeted Bill, in his opinion, was not calCulated to enfran .thise the people, but to fetter the chains of slavery still •;a,ter. It had been the fashion to tell them that the interests of the In kid lean d lower classes were inseparable, and a previous .peaker had supported this view. He would examine this doc trine of inseparable interests, and see how it worked. Look at he inseparable interests in 1808 in their own town, when the weavers were seeking in the most peaceable manner to ,htain a proper remuneration for their labour. The middle Lasses accoutred themselves with sharpened swords, mounted their steeds, and cut them down at what was •alled the _flash fight ;—the same conduct was pursued by the middle classes towards the people on the 16th of Aug. 1819; at Manchester; and in Bolton again, in 1830, in .vhat was called the spinner.' turn-out. The employers at .empted to reduce wages to a starvation level, and the middle classes armed themselves with truncheons, attacked the ppor defenceless turn-out hands, and threw them into prison. So much for the doctrine of inseparable nrerests between the 10/. voters and the people. He agreed with the sentiment, that to make more Peers vas to make more oppressors ; and instead of supporting he King in such an exercise of his prerogative, the recent conduct of the Peers was enough to make any man cry " Down with the Peers."—(Cheers,and cries of "Amen.") The boasted Constitution of England would be much more pure, and much better adapted for the purposes of good Government, if the Peerage was removed from it ; and they who some little time ago never gave these matters thought now thoroughly detested both Lords Spiritual and T e mporal.—(C'heers.) They had shewn that that ,ody were not calculated to form part of the mechanism for the Government of a free state ; and though pretty baubles enough, with their rubes and tinsel titles, for Princes to play with, yet they were not so palatable to the people, who had to pay for them and their worse than nselesa pageantry.—(Cheers.) He (the speaker) would never approach that House again, either by petition or ad dress. He would treat them with the same contempt as they had treated the people; and hereafter would confine his remonstrances and requests to the King and the Com- coons.—(Bravo ! " So will we.") They were worse than a useless body —they were highly mischievous. In the fear 1648 they were declared injurious and useless, and the people of the present day had arrived at the same conclusion. He could never recollect one single time, or one single instance, in which they showed them selves of the least utility ; and those persons who could, were either better read or had better memories than he had. If the Ministry would bring forward a measure to dispense with the Peerage, as in France, they would have the support of the people, and the will of the people now was law.—(Cheers.) The people wanted nothing unrea sonable—nothing that would disorganise society ; they were actuated in their views by the golden rule, " Do unto others as ye would they should do unto you ;" but when all attempts at improvement were insultingly re pelled, let not the people be blamed if they hardened is their demands : the blame rested with their oppressors, and not with them. He would stand by his King and the people.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. JOHN ASTON, in moving the third resolution, ob served that the last speaker had said that no man who was a friend to his country would support the rejected Reform Bill. Now he considered himself as great a friend to the liberties of his country as any man, and he had supported the late Reform Bill of his Majesty's Ministers; he con ceived that the evils which bad so long afflicted the country had been brought upon it by a desperate, a monstrous, and a corrupt Government; and as the Bill alluded to was, in his opinion, calculated to make an inroad into those corruptions, he had given it his support. He had always been the undi.gui,ed supportar of annual Parliaments, uni versal suffrage, and vote by ballot ; and it was with a view of ultimately attaining this end lie had consented to the rejected Bill. It mightbe said that it was inconsistent in him,who had always gone the full length of Radical Reform, to sup port a Bill which limited the franchise to ten-pound householders, but this he denied ; he had merely sup ported a Bill brought in by Ministers, which went much farther than he ever anticipated, as a step towards gaining real Radical Reform. This was the reason, and no other, why he had supported Lord John Russell's Bill. He did not agree with the last speaker, that the middle classes were the enemies of the lower classes ; he did not think the object of Ministers in bringing in the Reform measure was to cement a union between the middle and the higher classes against the lower classes, the idea was preposterous. He would now hisspeaker, come more immediately to the terms of the resolution which he held in his hand. The first part stated, " that according to the principles of the Britis h Constitution every individual who contributed to the maintenance of the State was entitled to a vote in t he choice of his re. u p g re r s e e e n d ta n t , i i ‘ t . l e i .".l%l ; him, TthPainea atthe right t ()vote for ' the represen tative was every man's birth - righ t, and his person was his title-deed"—(Cheers) —and the Bill of Ri g hts d eclared that " no man should be taxed without his consent."— s) and be (Cheers.) Tile next portion of the resolution referred to " Universal suffrage, annual Parliaments, and vote by ballot;" and it further stated that the rights of the people could only be secured by having a House of Commons chosen upon this broad basis. In this o p inion he perfectly coincided. With r espect to annual Parliaments, he had heard them objected to on the ground that they would produce annual confusion : and by many well-intentioned Reformers tt i ennial Parliaments were recommended. He (Mr. A.) did not complain much of triennial Parliaments ; but although Lord Brougham had lent the sanction of his great name in support of triennial Parliaments, yet it could not he denied that it were better to be able to get rid of a villain, or a blockhead at the end of one year, than have him fastened upon us for three.—(Loud cheers.) He would next say a few words in favour of the much- Aimed rote by ballot. He knew that many Honoorabies and Right Honourable' were opposed to the ballot ; but he was certain that their arguments could easily be re fated by any weaver on Bolton-moor.—(Laughter.) It was remarkable that Hon. Gentlemen who were so out rageously violent against voting by ballot at elections for Members of Parliament, eheuld submit to the plan with such amiable complacency in their private clubs. And how did they justify this conduct ? -Because it spared . them the mortification of breaking openly with some Mend, whose virtues they admired, but whose frailties they could not entirely overlook._(Cheers.) And if this is deemed a sufficient excuse for the man of independent property to conceal his real feelings, how much more powerful a motive must impel the honest, industrious mechanic to call for the protection of the ballot, in order that he may vote conscie' tiously, when he knows that if be dared to give his suffrage in opposition to his master's will, no matter however great the villain he is called on to support, his wife and helpless fareil7 would be doomed to certain starvation.---(Loud cheers.) Mr. A. concluded by earnestly exhorting the people to be firm and united, and to endeavour, as much as possible, to cultivate a good understanding with the middle desk,. Mr. DA "ID FRANCE seconded the resolution, which was put and carried unanimously. Mr. JOHN O'Brstxte rose to move the fourth reso lution, and said that it had for object neither more nor less than to draw down the disapprobation of the meeting on the heads of the Lords in lawn sleeves, and this might probably be the means of drawing down upon himself the fiery indignation of the Right Rev. Bench, from whom he could never expect to receive a certificate to enable him to enter the regions of bliss.— (Cheers.) But regardless of their power to drive him front the pale of the Church, he would assert in the lan guage of the resolution be had to propose, that by the re jection of the Reform Bill they had done an act which had placed the lives and properties of a great portion of his Majesty's subjects in the greatest jeopardy.—(Cries of " They have, down with therm") Those proud Prelates appeared to consider the middle and lewer dame as of no consequence in the scale of society, and had arregeted to themselves the right of deciding against the united wishes of millions of their fellow subjeettu they seemed to breathe defiance against kith , thd head of their own Church and the people, and cried out in all the haughtiness of inflated pride, " We alone are.the great bulwark of the nation"— hut, (said the speaker) I will thew yea by historical facts, that there is no confidertee in Bishops. At the time Lady Jane Grey was proclaimed Queen of these realms, Dudley Earl of Northumberland raised an army to °ppm; the pre tensions of Queen Mary and Philip of Spain, and so great was his confidence in the Bishop', that he procured him self to be ordained a Bishop.—(Laughter.) This coming to the ears of the soldiery, they, in imitation of their cow moodet, refused to fight, unless they were made Bishops also.—(Loud laughter.) Dudley remonstrated, but it was useless—Bishops they would-be, and Bishops they were made—(Laughter)—and every man marched to the sea coast an ordained Bishop.—(Renewed laughter.) Bet mark the sequel. Queen Mary landed and proceeded to Oxford; and what did the new-made Bishops do? Did they march to Oxford and drive her out? No; all the new Bishops ran away, and their military Pope, Dudley, drank to the health of Queen Mary until he was drunk. —(Loud laughter.) Therefore it would be useless to place confidence in the Bishops—they must be driven from their temporalities, and their services confined to their proper sphere. It had been said by some one, that the King had not power to unship the Bishops ; this he de nied, for they were first made by an Act of Parlia ment in Queen Elizabeth's reign, and to a certainty an Act of Parliament would unmake them.—(Cries of " Down with them.") The Scripture says, " Woe unto them that withhold the corn from the poor ;" yet these vaunted successors of the Apostles voted for the corn laws.—(Cries of " They did—no tithes.") He wished those frienas who now heard him to recollect that all Bishops were not alike, and, that in former ages, Stephen Langton forced Magna Charm from the truant John ; and in our days the venerable and venerated Bishop of Nor wich was ever foremost in the bellowed work of charity and liberty. But what had been the conduct of the pre sent Archbishop of Canterbury, as contrasted with that of Langton ? Why, that the one procured for this nation the great charter of her liberties, whilst the other, not content with raising his voice against the restoration of those liberties, had actually withheld the proxy of the Archbishop of 'York, who was friendly to the measure of Reform introduced by his Majesty's Ministers. Mr. Join. M'QUIRE seconded the resolution, and en tered into a bitter philippic against the Bishops. Mr. RICHARD STARKIE declared that, in his opinion, the recent conduct of the Bishops proved that glittering gold was their god, and not the God of Heaven. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. Mr. DAVID FLOYD moved the fifth resolution, which, being seconded by Mr. FINLAY FRAZER, was carried una nimously. Mr. W. WIYHERINGTON then rose, and submitted a motion to the meeting, " That the Political Council, con nected with the Bolton Political Union, do attend the Ses sions.room, on Monday evening next, at six o'clock, for the purpose of re establishing a Union, on the same prin ciples as the National Union in London is conducted." Mr. Joust DEGAW seconded the motion.—Carried una nimously, amidst loud cheering. Three cheers were then given fir the Kiag, three for Radical Reform, three for Henry Hunt, Esq., and three tremendous groans for the Bishops, after which the meet ing separated peaceably. The proceedings of the day were conducted in a very orderly manner, and the different speakers were listened to with the greatest attention. The address is an echo of the resolutions, and is soucbed n very respectful language. BATTLE.—On Friday, the 14th inst., a public meeting of the inhabitants of Battle was convened, for the purpose of declaring their opinions respecting the defeat of the Reform Bill in the House of Lords. Sir GODFREY WEBSTER, Bart., took the Chair, and in a long and admirable speech exposed the tricks of the isoroughs mongers and tax-eaters, condemned the Bishops for not manifesting more sympathy towards the people, and pointed out, in a c'ear and forcible manner, the inconsistency of their holding seats in the House of Lords. This part of the Hon. Baronet's speech was received with the most deafening cheers. He concluded by encouraging the people to he firm in adhering to their rights, and exhorted them to preserve order and tranquillity. The Rev. J. Tsrux moved the first resolution in a speech of considerable ability. He was followed by several other gentlemen. ASHBURTON.—On the 13th inst. a very numerous meeting of the inhabitants of this town, which, it should be remembered, was placed in schedule B, was held in the chapel of St. Lawrence. Mr. Genus, the Portreeve, in the Chair. An address to his AiAJEISTY was unanimously adopted, similar in spirit to those agreed on in other parts of the country. The following vote of thanks to the representatives of the borough, who both supported the Reform Bill, was adopted with acclama tions :—" That the thanks of this meeting are justly due, and are hereby given, to our highly respected Members, Mr. POYNTZ and Colonel TORREMS, for their able eenduct, unwearied exertions, and nnrernitted attendance in the House of Commons during the arduous and severe struggle by which the Reform Bill was at length triumphantly carried through that Honourable House." WORCESTER, OCT. 17.--ResBCtion 1 . The petitions to the last Parliament from this city in favour of " The Bill" were signed by about 1,800. The late peti tion to the Lords, praying them to pus " The Bill," was signed by 2,200. This day there are sent to the Ktxc and to the Ministers addresses in behalf of " The Bill," signed by upwards of 5,000 citizens of Worcester. Verily here is re-action ! A county meeting is to be held the latter end of the week ; a reqstisitiou at least is signing by the Magistrates, assembled is quarter session, to the High Sheriff to call one, and we all know the Sheriff is a zealous Reformer. You will have beard of the Indicrona affair at Tewkesbury, how the Anti-Reform corporation were locked up, and their dinner devoured (a sere thing for an Alderman) by the people. It is, however, much feared that there may be some riot of the kind here on Friday next, if the dinner to Colonel LycoN, our ex-county Member, be persevered in. The Tories are doing all in their power to create some distur bance. Many of the yeomen have seat their resignation to the Earl of PLYMOUTH, their commander, in dread of some provoked riot on that day. On that same day, too, evidently for the same purpose, it has been ostentatiously given out that Dr. CARR will make his entrance. Now the feelings of the populace are much excited against the Bishops, especially against Dr. CARR ; the very walls of his cathedral are chalked over with " Judas Iscariot, Bishop of Worcester ;" and unquestionably his reception here will be as warm as his parting from Chichester, if they confine themselves to effigies.
