Wednesday, the 19al — i;stant, having been fixed upon for the holding of a meeting of the county of Cornwall, to petition the Legislature for a Reform of Parliament, an unusual bustle and stir pervaded the town of Bodmin from an early hour of that morning. From nine o'clock until noon, successive groups of horsemen approached the town through its various avenues, and gave indications of a most nu merous assemblage. The spirit of Reform seemed to have animated the whole of the farmers and yeo manry throughout the county : to this fact the crowds of well-mounted and well-dressed persons who arrived bore strong testimony. At about half past eleven o'clock one body, amounting to five hun dred in number, entered the town, and, in addition to the numbers already congregated, such a body of cavalry, though not moving in the most exact order of discipline, gave a very animated appearance. At twelve o'clock the Magis• rates who had called the meeting went to the County-hall, which not be ing adequate to the accommodation of the numbers assembled, a sort of temporary hustings was erected, which, with some carts and waggons, were fixed outside the Hall. At this time there could not be less than three thousand persons assembled, and the proceedings commenced. J. T. P. TREVANION, Esq., was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN said he should best consult his own duty, and the convenience of the meeting, by reading the requisition, and stating the authority under which he and his hearers were then assem bled. That was - the requisition which had been handed to the High Sheriff by his Hon. Friend Mr. Petre, whose answer he then read. It was to the effect, that it was with great re luctance he declined acceding to the respectable requisition presented; but he doubted the prudence of assembling large masses of people at a time of public excitement like the present, nor could he conceive the necessity of a county meeting, as Go vernment had expressed their intention to bring the subject_forward in th e H ouse o f C ommons, t h e only proper place for the discuvsion, as it contained all the discretion and temper of the country. In consequence of this refusal on the part of the Sheriff, the following was the authority under which the meeting was convened : ,t The above requisition, signed by seventeen Magis trates, several Clergymen, and u p war d s o f seven h un dred gentlemen, merchants, farmers, and inhabitant house holders, having been this day presented to the High Sheriff, and he having refused to comply with the wishes of the requisitionists, we, the undersigned, acting Ma gistrates of Cornwall, do het eby convene a meeting of the county, to be held at Bodmin, on Wednesday, the 19th instant, at twelve o'clock at noon, for the purpose in the said requisition stated.

Gentleman proceeded to s a y how much . , more desiiable would it have been if the • Sheriff hat] not suffered his apprehension to prevail over hi• judgment, . and been pres • ent to preside over the highly respectable meet ing, the proceedings of which he was then selected to superintend.—(Cheers.) J. CoLmAs RAsnLEIGn, Esq. then came forward, amidst enthusiastic cheering. He said he once more presented himself before the gentry and freeholders of Corn Wall as the advocate of the great cause of Parli:tmentary Reform,—a cause to which he had devoted thirty-five years of his life,a--whiCh had been the dream of his youth,—which was, the deliberite convictioli,of his manhood,—and the sense Of the • importance of 'which would accompany him to hi, grave.—(Cheers.)— was. impossible that those about him who had so long fought the battles of • the people, and who had borne the banner of Ifee form through every storm, should not feel delighted at seeing that banner planted in triumph on the citaa del of the Constitution.. But God forbid, 'when they witnessed, as now they did, the conversion of the people, that every bad feeling should not die within them. When they saw one class arrayed against another, the manufacturer against the agri cultUrist, the farmer against the landlord, And the labouring poor not only hewersof Wood and drawers of water, but little better than the beasts that perish, and when they contrasted this with the picture which Lord Sinners drew of the population of Eng land and France, as an instance of the effects of free and arbitrary Government—when also they looked to the predictions of Mr. Fox in 1797, when he warned the Legislature that if the system of mis ► ule was continued, to the state of Ireland must Eng land come —when, therefore, they now saw that prophecy fulfilled, and Irish Rock emulated by . English Swing, and disaffection rising i n to revolt, with all the circumstances of a servile and a social war, these were not matters to fill them with triumph, but with commisseration and shame. How ever, it -did not become them to despair. A glimpse was apparent through the gloom, for the people and the Government were at length united against the borough factitni, to which all these evils were owing.—(Loud cheers.) Ministers had promised effectual Reform, but they should- .recollect that, however strong their confidence in this union, the party to which they were opposed was powerful,— he- meant the borough-faction, who had so long: usurped the rights and privileges of all orders of the State.—(Cheers.) Their ramifications spread wide and deep throughout .the land, and they must be perseveringly and steadily combati:d. - The Govern. ment themselves said as much, and would not the people stand by them ?—(Cheers.) As to leaving these subjects to the discretion of Government, be had lived too long to be caught by such chaff— (Cheers and laughter)—and as to their imprudence in calling on those whom he saw a , sembled that day, the respectable yeomanry and middle orders of the people of England, he should acquiesce in the charge when any one instance in the pages of our history was shown of any evil being remedied by Government without being called upon by the people. They were . told to wait for a time of peace and tranquillity ; but their ancestors did not wait for the halcyon days of peace to achieve their liberties, and the Constitution was gained in the throes and struggles of convulsion, and they who gained it were content to purchase its blessings at the expense of disorder and confusion fer a time, for they well - and wisely judged that it was better to hazard even a turbulent liberty than sink- into the deadly repose of despotism.—(Lend cheers.)—Let the evils of the people be put an end to by timely and peaceable cession; but if the nui sance could not otherwise be abated, at all events let it be abated. There were many borough-proprietors, no doubt, respectable men, but there were others who possessed little beside their boroughs, and yet these held high stations, and quartered their family and friends upon the public. Now, as to the work ing of the system, he should confine himself to the words of the requisition, which asked for " that temperate and c onstitutional, but, at the same time, really effective Reform, which alone can protect the people from the tyranny and corruption of bad mi nisters, or allow even good ministers to accomplish those measures of retrenchment, economy, and good government, which the necessities of the country, no less than the opinions of the age, so imperiously demand." On this he should make but one remark, that these words were not their own ;—they had been uttered by Mr. Pitt when he was a reformer, on witnessing the conduct of the House of Commons at the end of the American war; —of that Mr. Pitt, who, by his own subsequent acts, had given that pro phecy a most disastrous fulfilment.—(Loud cheers.) After him Mr. Burke had proposed what he called an economical Reform, but which, he ultimately admitted, was intended to prevent Reform of Par liament. Mr. Burke's object, as he said, was to prevent corruption; but as to the result of his mea sure, let them take but this one instance. One measure introduced was to effect a better adminis tration of the public money placed under discre tionary trusts. This was introduced by Mr. Dundas, afterwards Lord Melville, and directed that the Treasurer of the Navy, instead of keeping the ba lances in his own hands, should be compelled to pay them into the Bank of England. Yet many present were old enough to remember, that in this county hall, they had called on the House of Commons to do justice on that Lord Melville, for violating his own act, and conniving at his servant (Mr. Trotter) retaining those very balances in his own hand. So much for the efficacy of Mr. Burke's Reform, so far as money was concerned. As to the Civil List, the debts upon it had been since that time repeatedly pa id off'; arid as to the appropriation of it to na tional purposes, he would merely refer to the di closures lately made, and to the names so gracefully appearing on that list.—(Loud applause.) The Hon. Gentleman then went into the history of Mr. Pitt's India Bill; and, alluding to the fact of Lord Castle reagh having trucked a writership for a seat in Parlia ment, said that he was not only not punished, but not even censured. And what was the reaSon ?—be cause it was declared that seats were. sold as openly as the sun at noon-day.--( Hear.) If it were neces sary for him to show what had been the effect of the union between Government and 164 Members ' returned by borough proprietors, they would find them in the divisions, at various times, on questions of vital importance to the Constitution. They were to be found not merely in these, but even when the House of Commons was at variance with itself. Mr. Dunning had carried a resolution that the in fluence of the Crown had increased, and ought to be diminished; but the next day, when he proposed a nother vote, by which alone that could be rendered effective, it was at once negatived. Then let them look to the Catholic question : of that he bad been a lways a supporter, but with respect to its oppo• nents, must there not have been something more than pure love towards the country, to effect in them the sudden and miraculous conversion that had taken place ?—(Cheers and laughter.)—So much fur the working well of the system, which the ene mies of Reform had always given as an answer to those who thought with him, whom they called theoretical. The borough party also urged that this system, by giving Peers the influence they possessed, c te o n n t t l r e a d ry, preservedto t hisverysystem the balance of the Constitution. an But where co u ld t h ey fi n d proo f o f t h a t, f or , o n the Commons destroyed were all that swallowed balance, and King, Lo r d s , up by this fourth estate—the borough faction ? (Loud cheers.) Then as to the influence of the WWII ) suppose there Wlts a question of peace or war, the decision of which might depend on eight or nine votes, and suppose a ministerial proprietor of ;ioroughs gave those votes to strengthen the Lanes of Government. Then suppose that this proprie• tor was to die and lie socceeded by an Opposition son. According to the fides Parliamentaria, that these eight or nine Members took the Chiltern bun ,iteds, and others were returned according to the principles of the new proprietor, then the same goes tion would be decided in e different way, and a great constitutional question, or perhaps the existence of an excellent Administration, be destroyed, according to the caprice of this borough proprietor. It was Ilso said that the present mode brought forward men o f ta l e nt who would- otherwise be unknown, for thus it was that Pitt, and Fox, and Burke, and Nlarkiotosh, and Canning, and Brougham, all poi.- ricel adventurers of great celebrity, had been brought forward. But to this he would oppose the names of Mills and Atkinson, of Rowland Stephenson, of Wilksohe unsuccessful speculator in joint stock companies, and of Welsh the bankrupt stock-broker. To these let there he added the agents of Mahomed Ali Cawn, a Mahomeden prince, who had more in fluence in the British douse of Commons than the representatives of London, Middlesex, and York.— (Loud cheers.)—Also, let them add to these" the celebrated black footman of Lord Camelford, who would have taken his seat but for•an unlucky acci dent.—(Laughter.)—He would now read it petition to them which he was about to propose. The Hon. Gentleman then read the petition, which embodied the leading points of the speech. W. PETER, Esq. then rose—He begged to second the adoption of this petition. He believed the Go vernment to be sincere, and the people should not shut their eyes to the embarrassments Ministers were liable to from the enemies of Reform on the one hand, and the enemies of all establishments on the other. He would not, on that occasion, have said one one word about the borough system, but for what had fallen from the Duke of Wellington, who described it as perfection. It had been said • that the system worked well; and so it did, accord ing to what the Grave-digger in Hamlet, said of the gallows,—" It works well for those who work ill."—(Laughter.)—lt worked well no doubt for the Honourables and Right Honourables who did not work at all. - For let them look to Church and State, and what did they see through this system ? Pluralists who could not translate three verses of the Greek Testiment, and colonels and captains who • never saw a shot fired except as a salute:—(Cheers and laughter.)—Look at Lord Collingwood's life, and what would they see ? Why, that he had recommended the best and most deserving officers for promotion, but he could get nothing dune for them, as borough interest had swallowed up every thing. Then, as another proof of its ef fects, let them go through the kingdoM, and if they found a town where trade languished, and industry was dead, ten to one but they would find it was a rotten borough. The people .in such places relied on some pecuniary reward, the price, perhaps, of their vote at the next elect ot i lu o od,aoe n sb , zet t i l odo n ft t f l doa c erli o b,t i th r : sequently s for to t i oti Ameri cantt the borough they ‘uv d ga i hrd, systemn‘,o, h t i h c i h n g they lefte y ß 2o u l)% t ,eo t r o h e o i first French war, which increased that debt to 800,000,0001. To is they also owed Gagging Bills, Habeas Corpus Suspension Acts, and all that which would render for ever infamous the domina tion of Castlereagh.—(Loud cheers.)—He need not, however, dwell on these points in that hind of rotten boroughs; for when they looked to the num ber of Members returned by Peers and petty cor porations, who drove a thriving trade in such re turns, there was enough said to any man of Corn wall. As to Reform, he thought that the number of electors should be such as almost to preclude the power of corrupting. lie was not, however, for universal suffrage, as he did not wish to see regi ments marched up to the poll, nor a manufacturer order all his workmen to vote one way or another— •perhaps bringing up '2,000 or 3,000 miners to do as he directed them. But what he did wish for was, that which Mr. Fox had described—namely, as many in dependent voters as possible. Lease and copyholders, if independent, ought to have the power to vote, for now, in most instances, they had as great, if not greater interests than the great body of free holders. In boroughs formerly all who paid scot and lot--.-that is, those on whom public burdens fell, —were entitled to vote; but he would not then enter at length Into the subject. His Hon. Friend .vho preceded him had said, that he believed Minis ters were sincere, and he hoped so too. He could not, indeed, believe that such a man as Lord Grey, who had ever preserved his consistency, notwith standing the desertion of apostate Whigs and the opposition of grasping Tories—he could not believe that Lord Brougham, the advocate of education— he could not believe that Lord Althorp, the true model of a gentleman, who never said what he did not think—he could not believe that the King, who . was himself a Reformer—he could never believe that these men could be traitors to their word.-- - -- (llear, hear.) Believing this; the people ought to support them, for they say they can do nothing without our support. The Hon. Gentleman retired amidst loud .cheering. The Rev. R. WALKER joined his friends w'ho had addressed the meeting in all their sentiments, and was most anxious for Retrenchment and Reform. Peers degraded themselves by their borough inter ference, and what was the effect on the Commons ? Most of the Members entered the House under a bargain express or implied; and what must the sys. tem be, when a .Member would say to his friend in the House, or write to his friend in the country, "I agree with you perfectly as to this question, but I must vote with my patron, my honour is pledged on the other side ?" The poet had well said "an honest man's the noblest work of God;" but what was religion without honesty, and if religious men put honour instead of honesty, what was to be ex pected ? JOHN RUNDLE, Esq. then came forward and said, the question had been asked, of some of the speakers, who they were; and as he was unknown, in order to save inquiry he would tell them who he was,—namely, John Rundle, of Tavistock, and one of the seventeen voters of that borough, who had petitioned for an extension of the franchise to their townsmen. That example had been followed in Bodmin, at a late meeting over which an Alderman had presided; and he hoped other places would act in the same manner. It had been tusked, what was to be got by Reform ? but he would say what was to be got without it ?—(Cheers,)—lf they had had it fifty years ago, they would not have had to pay Is. where they now paid 7s. Taxation would never be reduced with Reform, but with a reformed House of Commons it must take place. It had been said I,y somebody, that on the present occasion the sub ject of tithes ought - to be introduced : but he would say no : first let us have Reform, and then redress and relief would follow. He had intended to have proposed a question as to vote by ballot, but he would not do so at present as he had no wish to embarrass those gentlemen who had acted so well in calling the county together. He had seen two or three county elections for Devon, and he had known freeholders canvassed by parties who haddis tress warrants in their pockets against them in case of refusal. That was very bad, as it would be better to take away a, franchise than thus make it the in strument of tyranny. R. R.

(" We will mind him," from the crowd.) Ile had often giver; those around him some advice, and now he wonid give a small do.:e of it to the Ministers. It was said that they felt great difficulty in treating the question of R.t.form, especially on the point of making compensation for vested interests. Now, if a pickpocket took a hantiktrehief or a puree, he got no compensation, ftl'C a tour at the expense of Government ; and if the boronghmongers wanted compensation for having so long picked the pockets of the people, why he would recommend Government to t re at. them in the same w:,y with their light-fingered brethren.—(Cheers and laughter.) The resolution for the adoption of the petition oraq put, and carried unanimously. DAVID HOWELL, Esq., then nitivol, that the pc rition be presented to the House of Peers by Lord Brougham, and that to the House of Commons by Mr. Pendarves. This vote was seconded by J. T. Nunes, Esq., atid carried unanimously. Mr. PF.NDAnvEs, M.P., then came forward, and was received with enthusiastic cheers. Since he had settled in the county a• a married man, he had attended every meeting for Reform; and he had ever advocated that which now, indeed, was the paramount cause to be supported. The first meet ing for that purpose took place 26 years age, and although they had, until lately but fen► supporters, now they were no longer a poor deluded crew, but the whole population of the county had become re formers.—(Loud. cheers.)—There was no one among the middle classes now who was not a re former, and they all felt that the great , weight of taxation originated from the present system. God knew they had in that part of the country too much of what Burke called the disgraceful part of the Constitution. Now it was true, we had an enlight ened Government, but they had undertaken a diffi cult tank, and would require the support of the people to enable them to do anything. That, he hoped, they would receive from the freeholders of Cornwall, as he was sure they would from every in telligent man in the kingdom. The lion. Gentleman retired amidst the most deafening cheers. On the motion of Mr. RUNDLE, thanks ware voted to the Magistrates who had called the meeting. Mr. RASHLEIGR was then called to the chair, and thanks were voted to Mr. Trevanion for his conduct as Chairman, as well as for his steady ad vocacy of Reform. Mr. TREVANION could riot suffer the meeting to disperse without expressing his gratitude to them for their most orderry and decorous conduct. That proved how unfounded were the fears of their honest, though timid Sheriff.—(A voice from the crowd, "Lord Falmouth, Sir, and not the Sheriff.") The meeting then dispersed, and there were din ners at the two principal inns, at each of which up wards of 100 persons sat dotvn. MEETING AT MANCHESTER. The numerous body of Reformers in Mancheater and Salford held a public meeting in the Town-hall on Thurs day. A requisition, signed by 233 respectable merchants, manufacturers, and tradesmen, had been presented to the Boroughreeve and Constables, requesting them to convene a public meeting, that the inhabitants of the town. migl have an opportunity of expressing their seetitneats on the subject of Reform. The authorities, imitating the ex ample of the Sheriff of arawalj, and some other public officers, refused to comply with the requisition. assigning as a reason for their non-compliance, the excited state of the town and neighbourhood; the division of seniimeet the subject of Reform, even among the reformers them. selves, and the promise of the Ministry, that they would bring forward the measure of Parliamentary Reform in both Houses of the Legislature. The-requisitionists were not contented with the refusal, and immediately appointed a public meeting to be held in the Town-ball. The roods which is very spacious, was crowded to excess, the audi tory amounted to upwards of 2,000 persons, comprising a large proportion of the talent and wealth of the town of Manchester and Salford. The platform, from which the speakers addressed the assembly, was crowded with highly respectable gentlemen. E. BAXTER, Esq., was called to the Chair, and opened the business of the meeting in a speech distinguished by good sense and energy. RICHARD POTTER, Esq.—Mr. Chairman and gentle men, I feel highly honoured at having the privilege of moving the first resolution, and meeting my fellow-towns men on an occasion like the present. On the i s s ue o f this great question depends the happiness, the security, if not the very political existence of the country. Gentle men, the proceedings of this (lay will, in consequence of the rapidity with which intelligence is conveyed, soon find their way to most parte of the kingdom. The Govern ment will hear of them, and I also trust the borough mongers will hear them; and I anticipate that our pro ceedings will he marked with such a degree of dignity and firmness that a considerable effect will be produced, and that dismay and consternation will be felt by that body of men who have so long deprived Englishmen of their just and undoubted rights, and usurped thelrepreeentation of the people—l mean the boroughinongers.—(G reat applause. ) This town is the centre , of a vast population -..great in deed in number, but greater still in enterprise, industry, and all the qualities which confer strength, grandeur,'nnd importance, on a nation. When such a people arise, ss it were like one man, to state their dissatisfaction at the pre. snit state of the House of Cotntnons, I anticipate that a beneficial result will ensue. In the answer to the requisi tion which you have heard read, the boroughreeve and constables speak of the excited state of the town and neighhourhood, as a reason for not having called the meeting. Admitting, for the sake of argument, it is so, that can be no valid objection against the meeting, for the excitement I suppose they allude to is among the spinners, and, if I mistake not, the spinners of Manchester, in common with the workmen of other trades, are for a Re form in Parliament.—(Hear, hear, and applause.)—lt is, therefore, the last thing in their minds to come here and attempt to defeat the object of a meeting which will, it is hoped, promote a measure which they know wili be bene ficial to them, in common with their richer townsmen, — a measure which they know will check the extravagant expenditure of the public money,—a measure which will prevent the money of the 'country being expended in cor rupting the members of the House of Commons, at whose 'disposal are placed the resources and liberties of the coun • try—(Applause)--a measure which will bring about a considerable reduction of taxation, more particularly of such as presses upon the labouring class--(Hear, hear) —a measure which in fact will, I trust, again make this country a happy and contented one.—(Applause.)-- Really this distrust of the working Glasses is, in my epi nion, highly injurious and impolitic, and , fren sets men at variance whose interests are, or at least ought to be, sy. nonymous. ' Nearly half a century ago, it is reported of Mr. Pitt, that on one occasion in the House of Com mons be actually took out his watch, . and, .cooking at it, emphatically declared, " that every minute which was suffered to pass away without Parliamentary Re form being conceied, was injurious to the best interests of the people, and kept them from the enjoyment of their just and undoubted rights."—(Hear, an jtmanys—tb_naamoyhnbtiaoulcvelttiohleoamesnpstrseisei n lopi; e ib e itit:E t inefo h f;nor e gre n a, liwfisohm i lma passed eennmoeht a a w yte s eoo y ndtiee i es n ile t e o nyNdo t e h ued e : aghot l Millions ednli gentlemen, im n sose e s fiei noneef,ntteutmirtrnt tomb—but Ministers, hni that unless the people of England, Scot'and, and Ireland, f come forward at this crisis to support King William IV. e tim ar e e (I restored wil l not to ot cur aty rights.—(Great applause.)
