WORCESTER COUNTY REFORM MEETING• had done itself immortal bonourin electing two candidates in favour of the rights and privileges of the people ; but when facts so notorious stared them in the face, necessity compelled them to speak out. The political opponents of the great measure of Reform accused the people of being enemies of social order ; with them the Reformer and the lowest rabble were synonymous.—(Hear, hear.) They said the Reformers were destroyers of private property— they called them Radicals, and heaped every abuse upon them which their classical vacabulary furnished them with. He trusted that the present meeting would that day refute such calumnies by their unanimity in urging on that great and glorious cause in the support of which they were all embarked, and in o hich they were sure of victory if they proceeds d to obtain it by constitutional means.—(Cheers.) The satisfaction of knowing that it had been obtained without violence would he great indeed. If the present meeting would only let their motto be " union and forbearance," he had no doubt of being able , in a short time to congratulate them on the passing of that measure, which would secure the stability of the Throne, give the Aristocracy the rights they were entitled to have, and—oh ! delightful thought—give many years of happiness to the people, and confer solid advantages on his much loved country.—(Tremendous cheering.) The resolution was then put by the HIGH SHERIFF, who declared it to be carried unanimously. redone] D evrEs came foreened erri.':e the most deafen ing pit .. which Fisted fee several minutes. He bad great satisfaction in subiHittiii to the present numerous rneetine Me *Rood resolution, which he was sure would he received by all preeent with unan i mous approbati on, a s it was one which every man who called himself an Eng ' lishenan could not but feel a pletteore in participating in. The resolution was for the purpose of expressing the thanks of the meeting to their patriot Sovereign, for the anxiety be bed shown to promote the happiness and wel fare of his people—(Loud cheers)—who owed him a debt it would never be in their power to repay.--.(Much cheer ing.) It was generally atropexerd . that' Moil,. eta were nee., too-fond of eemnoting the liberties of the subject, but the present Monarch of England was a glorious exception to that.—(Loud cheering.) He had shown the greet's% anxiety twice since he had ascended the throne to rev 're the gross abuses under which the Constitution laboured. 'I he present were most eventful times, and such as made it neceetary for eve, y one toraert him self to the utmost to stem that torrent of sorruption wLie'ri had inondeted the country in or.ler to restate the C eeetitution to its original purity.—(Cheers.) They had teen told by those who called themselves moderate Re(ormere, that the country did not require so sweeping a measure cf Reform, and ti.at the peopla were not anxious for it; to such persons be would put the question, would the disturbances which had taken place at Nottingham, Derby, and Bristol, have taken place if the Reform Bill had been carried ?—(Loud cheers and cries of " No, no.") There was now throughout the vast population of the country a determination to carry this question, and it must and would be carried.—(Great cheering.) If, however, the people were driven to despair —if the Bill should be again thrown out—the most terrible convulsions of the country must ensue, and they might be carried to such an extent as to carry Peer, Prelate, and Property in one mass along the destructive stream.—(Cheers.) It was therefore the duty of all to come forward and join in those measures by which and by which alone the happiness and peace of the country would be secured.—(Loud cheers.) Those who called them selves moderate Reformers would persuade the agricultural interest—the farmer, that it was the object of those who promoted Reform to ruin him. He exhorted the men of Worcestershire, if such wolves in sheep's clothing came among them, to believe them not—for all that they lived upon was place and pension, and what had been extracted from the hard earned gains of the farmer.—(Cheers.) The very persons who were so willing to sound into their ears the danger resulting from Reform were themselves men rising from the land, and if the farmer was ruined they would be reduced to the worst situation, they would lose their property and be left destitute.—(Cheers.) The percent Corn Laws of the country were constructed on the most vicious principle, throwing a weight on the ma nufacturer and artizan wiithout affording any good to the agriculturalist.—(Cheers.) He (Col. D. ) hoped ere long to see great alterations in those laws, which would remove that weight which pressed on the manta. facturer ; the man who could sanction such laws was an enemy to both the agricultural and commercial interest, for they must stand or fall together.—(Loud chests.) He hoped and expected that a reformation of the House of Commons would be followed by cheapening all the articles of Wbat was it that caused their dearness ? Why the load of taxation which pressed so heavily on the country..--(Cheers.) And for what was the country hurthened with such heavy taxes? Why to keep up large establishments for those who had influence, but who had no right to revel in luxuries with the public money..—(Loud cheers.) When, however, the people had a reformed Parliament of their own choosing, they would immediately set to work to reduce the taxation on every article of life, which would then be furnished at a cheaper rate to the consumer, and give a more fair profit to the producer. When such events took place the country would be blessed with content. For himself, he (Colonel Davies) was sure no man in the kingdom was more ready to make greater sacrifices than he was, and no ex ertions on his part should ever be wanting consti tutionally to produce a fair and free representation of the country; and if Government should introduce, contrary to his expectations, a lees efficient Bill, they should no longer receive his support or possess his confi dence--(Loud cheers)—but the country bad assurances that that would not be the case—Government doubtless would introduce a Bill in its provisions essentially the same, and its operations equally extensive.—(Hear, hear.) He felt most grateful to his Majesty's Ministers for the in troduction of the Bill ; this was the first time this country had been blessed with a reforming King and reforming Ministers ; let the country, therefore, make the most of their time, and by a cordial co-operation with that King, and his patriotic Ministers, bring to pass that great measure, which would secure to the country its peace, its capital, and its enterprise.—(Much cheering.) As one of the representatives of the county no exertions should be wanting on his part to promote that Reform which was so necessary for the benefit of all. The gallant Colonel con cluded amidat deafening cheers, with proposing the follow ing resolution. 2. That an address be presented to the King, expressive of such feelings, of our gratitude for his paternal care and regard for the happiness of the empire, more especially for his desire to promote the great object of the nation's hopes and wishes--Parliamentary Itefir;ini, and further expressive of our most anxious and san guine hope that his Majesty would he graciously pleased to give his confidence and support to his Ministers in their endeavour to promote that full and efficient measure of Reform which is con nected with the best interests of the country, and the well-being of his Majesty's subjects. T. C. HORN VOLD, Esq. seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. Sir T110; , 1A:; WtssearscToN proposed the following re solution. Alp That this meeting are daeplj impressed with obligation to Earl Grey and his Majesty's other Ministers, for their disinte rested and arduous exertions in promoting a measure of Reform In the Commons' House of Parliament; further, that this meet, tog liaye the fullest confidence in the assurance that his Majesty's Ministers wM . ,to the utmost of their power, introduce and sup port it Bill similar sn principle, and equally efficacious in practice, at the opening of the ehsams Session, with the one so lately re jected by the House of Lortts ; and that the High Sheriff be re quested to forward such resolution to Earl Pro's, begging that he txpuld communicate the same to his colleagues. 51r ; AcTON rose for the purpose of seconding the mesa , intion,,(T4e applause at this moment was almost deaf. ening, and prestented Isf,. Acton from addressing the meeting foe several minutes.) He felt greatly the honour that had been conferred upon biro in being pallpil upon to second the resolution ; he must, however, coulees that he creme forward on the present occasion with great feelings of diffidence, fur when he looked around him either to the right or to the left, and beheld so many around him who could have pet formed the task so much better, he could not but ;aspent that so im portant a duty had been intrusted to abler hensls.— (Loud gbgers, and cries of " Go on, go on.") When hz looked at tile patient assembly, and contrasted it with the last lie had witnessed :n that place, he could are no signs of that re-action which the Anti-it formers had attributed to that great county.—(Loud cheering.) The House of Lords, exercising its undoubted privilege, had ihm e gitt fit to place its negative on the attainment of the people's rights; be firmly bereeyed if the object of tke Noble Lords who had thought fit to gise their veto against the Reform Bill was fairly canyassed,it would lee foa.cd to consist in the hope that by taking that course the Ilfiniat,y.gf Est-1 Grey would go to pieces, and that they would then have been enabled t.. 0 11,2;re established themselves in power, have introduced a new Bill, and got their hands into the pockets of the people..,-(fireat cheering.) Happily, however, for the country',the events anticipated by them bad not taken place—a fresh gill would soon be introduced under the old auspices, and a chance would then be given to those who had voted against the Bill of righting themselves with the people. —(Cheers.) He looked upon the ilouse of Lori , as the mediator betweese the King and the people, to prevent the invasion of their rights-e. 23 a rock against which the waves of oppression would rage in 'r'ain.—(Cheers.) The people now knew how to appreciate their rights-- they felt the full value of them, and although they' were satisfied that the House of Lords should possess their hereditary privileges, yet they would no longer submit to have their representative nominated by them, or their taxes imposed by' representatives who did net represent them. They were determined to make their own laws, and int (FROM oust OWN REPORTER.) SATURDAY, 'The cause of Reform gill goes on prospering andtt prosper. This great agricultural co unt y has thrown the weight of its influence into the s cale, and recorded its name on that tablet which strikes the borouglirnongers with horror and dismay in their most secret hiding-places, telling them in the most prominent c haracters, that so far from there being on the part of the people a coolness about Reform, that their opinions in its favour are stronger than ever. In consequence of a requisition to the High Sheriff, signed by all the influential men of the county, calling upon him to appoint a day for a general county meeting, to express the deepest regret and disappointment at the rejection of the Reform Bill by the House of Peers, and to take into consideration the consequent critical state of the country ; also to declare the fullest confidence in the present Ministers of the King, and to implore his Majesty to continue his firm support to them in their adherence to the general principles of the measure lately rejected by the House of Lords ; the High Sheriff appointed Saturday Jast for the meeting, which took place in the Guildhall, in which hustings were erected for the convenience of the sneakers and the oulele orese: To eeesequenee of the nesting being apntewsed to take e , n the sth of No vember, the enaivereesy of the noted Gunpowder- plet, and the excited state cf the public mind at Bristol and other places, apprebenrioett were entertained that the peace of the city might be endangered ; that apprehension was strengthened by a current report that it was intended to burn down the. Bishop's Palace and commit other acts of outrage, and in order therefore to gnarl against any !/ , reach of the public peace every precaution was taken by the Mayor and 'lsgistretes which they considered neces seessary to preserve tranquillity. On Thursday last the ,soilowing placard was circulated about the city SPECIAL CONSTABLES. • e Mayo- arid iTaz'.Firatas of this clti have come to the de tenninatilayolittist•iiew to the preservation of the public peace, ' to pocinfirei execution the provisions of the Act passed in the last sesshm - of Parliament, authorising the swearing-in of Special Constables.

The whole of Friday was,occtpied in swearing in spe cial constablee, large bodges of the respectable tree , estnen and inhabitants voluntarily presenting themselves for that purpose. A detachment of the 91st were atationed at Pershore, another Dreitesich, others at convenisLt distaneen to be ready at a moment's notice if there iris necessity for them. The following ~,J,kr.9 was also issued by the Cornniittee of the Weocester Political Union : Wofteßeerrit POLITICAL UNION. 'TO THE IVS.IIIIERS OF THE WORCESTER POLITICAL r'SION AND THE CITIZENS OF WORCESTER. FELLOW UNIONISTS AND FELLOW CITIZENS, Apprehensions for the peace and safety of this city having been generally expressed, on account of the great excitement which recent occurrences have produced; and also from the expectation that on Saturday next (to-morrow) a large portion of the inhabitants of the county will assemble together to attend the County Reform Meeting, we, the Committee of the Wor. rester Political Union, deem it prudent to call upon the mem_ tiers of the Union and other inhabitants, to be prepared by every proper and lawful means for the support of peace and good order. Late melancholy, and in this country, in modern times at least, unparalleled atrocities which a neighbouring city has been sub ject to, must strongly urge upon every member, and upon every well-disposed person, the propriety of an unceasing determina tion, not only not to excite, or by any improper method of dis play of party zeal to induce any ill feelings, but to use his in_ /thence and persuasion in abating and subduing every act calcu lated to lead to a breach of the peace. While we urge, at all times, the peaceful expression of public opinion, which is, incontrovertibly, the nirth-right of every Eng lishman, we cannot too strongly deprecate any conduct having a tendency to excite to disturbance or riot. The Committee trust that, on the part of the members of the Union, even insult And contumely may be rather endured, than by an ill-timed re aistanee the peace 41 good order of the city and neighbourhood he endangered. YRIENDS AND FELLOW. UNIONISTS, Remember that the great cause of Reform is to be promoted and advanced only by union and concord, and a fixed and un alterable determination to persevere in its accomplishment by proper and legal means only. It is a good and a righteous cause, and must prevail against all the factious opposition of a selfish and interested party; and it needs not to be supported by any 'violation of the law, or any interruption of peace and quietness ; these are weapons, wielded ever so dexterously, that must rever. berate with double force upon the assailants, and wound, 'and perhaps fatally stab, the cause they are aiming to defend. The Committee beg to remind the members of the Union of the Gth rule, of "The Duties of the members of the Political Union, viz.—" To bear in mind that the strength of our Societ y consists ' in the peace, order, unity, and legality, of our proceed ings; And to consider all persons as enemies who shall, in any way, invite or promote violence, discord, or division, or any illegal or doubtful measures." To the Civil Authorities, the Committee beg to state, that should, unfortunately, any infraction of the law take place, they would be willing and anxious to assist and co-operate with them in any way which may be deemed most prudent toeffect the secu. rity and peace of the city. By Order of the Committee of the Political Union. Happily, however, all these precautions were rendered to tally unnecessary by the good sense and constitutional de portment of the people of this city, every thing going off with the greatest eclat. Immediately on the opening of the doors the Hall was completely filled, as well as the Prius Court, near to which the hustings were erected, and we think we do not exaggerate when we say there were between four and five thousand persons present. The High Sheriff (Osman Ricardo, Esq.), accompanied by Lord Lyttleton, Sir Thomas Winnington, Sir Offiey Wakeman, Sir C. Smith, John Richards, Esq., Richard Spooner, Esq., Acton, Esq., the Hon. T. H. Foley, M.P., Colonel Davies, M.P., Colonel Newport, T. C. Hornyold, Esq., the Rev. E. Berry, and many other influential men of the county, entered the Hall shortly after twelve o'clock, and took their places on the hustings. The business of the day was opened by the Under-She riff reading the requisition. The HIGH SHERIFF observed, that in consequence of Laving received a requisition so numerously and respect ably signed, he had considered it his duty to call the present meeting, and he felt assured, from the excellent and peace able conduct adopted by the people of Worcestershire at the last county meeting, that they would on the present occasion give a patient and attentive hearing to all who might wish to address the meeting. He begged of the persons assembled to be oeseezble and patient, not only for the sake of their own characters, hut for the sake of the cause of Reforni—(Cheers)—for it was only by those means the great question of Reform could be ultimately carried.—(Loud cheers.) The worthy High Sheriff con cluded by reading a letter from William Welch, Esq., re gretting that severe indisposition prevented him front attending the meeting, and expressing his hearty concur rence in its objects. Sir EDWARD Beounr, in rising to move the first resa- Jution, regretted exceedingly that it bad not been placed in abler hands. but at the same time knowing that it ex pressed the sentiments not only of the county of Worcester but of the kingdom at large, it was a great source of grati fication to him to bring it forward.—(Cheers.) fie begged to imprese upon the meeting the necessity of tranquillity and forbearance, as nothing would give their enemies so much delight as riot and confusion, that being, as they felt assured, the only ground by which Reform could be de feated.—(Loud cheers.) He trusted the Antießeforrners would not be allowed to succeed in driving the present meeting to acts of violence; he hoped, as they valued Re form, they would be peaceable—that they would remember the advice of their patriot King, and if they did so they might feel assured of a lasting triumph,.....-,,(Lond cheers) The Hon. Baronet sat down by moving the first resolution. I. That the rejection of the Bill for reforming the Cop', i.ops' I louse of Parliament by the House of Lords has aroused in the country a strong feeling of - regret and disappointment, because each Bill was sanctioned by the King, introduced and supported by his Ministers, and because it was ,calculated, in a high degree, through its principles of equable representation, to increase the liberties and the happiness of the people. Captain WINNINGTON felt great pleasure in seconding the resolution which had just been propo'ed, warmly participating in the feelings which had been expressed by the Worthy Baronet.—(Cheers.) He would take the pre sent opportunity of declaring how warm an advocate he was in favour of that measure, the rejection of which by the House of Lords might have thrown the country into.% state of inextricable confusion,—(Cheers.) The conduct of the blind and infatuated horoughmongers would have thrown the country into a state of civil war and discord but for the firmness of its patriotic King, acid the conduct of Lis liberal and enlightened Ministers—(Cieeece)n-but, above all, to the cool and temperate conduct of the people, (with the exception of one or two), who seemed deter mined by every constitutional means to have restored to them those rights which had been so long withheld from them. The opinion of the whole country wee tiow in favour of Reform, and the present numerous meeting, coupled with similar ineetiteo in adjoining counties, must convince the borouehniongers that nothing could with stand the wi-has of the people, when expressed in a firm and determined manner.—(Loud cheers.) The present were not times to remain idle spectators of passing events, when on the one band every exertion was used to perpetuate corruption and abuse, while on the other the noblest efforts were being made to get rid of those impo sitions which were adverse to the best interests of the country.—(Great cheering.) It was not his intention to go in detail into . the nature of the Bill, but there was one clause I e wished to call to the atten tion of the ineetin g —lie referred to that which conferred the elective franchise on the ten-pound bouseboldel, in his opinion the 101. householder was as much entitled to the elective franchise as the 401, free holder—(Hear, hear) —who in many instances had been created so for corrupt purpose..—(Hear, hear.) God forbid that lie should say any thing to disparage the up- TWA freeholders who on a late occasion had come forware in a u: oet manly way, and by chose exertiont the county pose their own taxes, Without their interference. In the interval of delay which must ensue before the great con summation of the wishes of the people, it became a ques tion how the people of England should demean themselves during that delay. That question bad been already an swered by the King and his Ministers, and it .vas the duty of every one who wished well to his country to gird him self with the armour of patience—keepiag in view the laws of their country, and that they could not better serve the cause of Anti-Reform than by abandoning themselves to licentiousness and excess.—(Loud cheers, and cries of 6 , We never will.") What was the conduct, he would ask, of the people of Ireland with respect to the Catholic question ? Did they violate the laws—did they sound terror throughout the land, or proclaim the destruction ofproperty? No, but they pursued that very course which was calcu lated to give them all they desired—they drew themselves up in an attitude of constitutional defence—and that very combination who had for so many years denied all their prayers and entreaties—flung at the foot of Ireland that boon which they were nn longer in a situation to deny.—(Loud cheering.) Let this country, one and al], imitate their conduct, and let the present meeting bear in mind that an Anti-Reformer may be an honest man, as well as any one of themselves; give them the same liberty of opinion which they themselves would wish to have--and all things would shortly be found to follow on to a happy issue.—(Cheers.) When the middling class of society, that numerous body which latter years had called into existence —when they should be at liberty to send Members to Parliernent e the House of Commons would be filled with men of business (Cheers)—competent to give that Reform which the state of things so loudly called for.—(Cbeere.) Interest would not then he set up against interest, the landed and agricul tural, as well as-the commercial interest, would all then cling to the ancient co!arnns of the British Constitution, disencumbered from the heaps of rubbish which it had beer; the work of modern times to cast aesmod it, which ilia Lesesuelimeee e ere would wish to see perpetrated, but which, thank God, they had found to their sorrow the people would no longer allow.—(Cheers.) The vessel of the state, with a 111onarah at her helm, who was the beast and adoration of his country—(Cheers)— manned by Ministers who were determined to do their duty—(Cheers)—and the - Peers and ancient aristocracy the people directing her in her course through the wateee of the people's love, would soon arrive ire safety in the haven of security, avoiding the drteiful shoals, quick sands, and rocks of revolution se-(Loud cheering.) What, he would ask, had any country gained by revolution? But few in the history of modern theree had succeeded in founding peace. The meeting had only to look for the proof of that to what had lately occurred in a neigh bouring country, where the laws have been trampled under foot, and the rights of property involved in one general and universal destruction.—(Cheers.) After all where was their boasted liberty —iron despotism, such as had scarcely been known in modern times, stalked through her lanel : the blood of her sons was shed by millions, and a weight was cast upon her resourcsei and industry, which she laboured to the present day to get rid of.-- (Cheers.) The British Constitution, properly adminis tered, was not likely to lead to such results, and it must be remembered that A thousand years scarce serve to form a State; kn hour may lay it in the dust : and when Can man its shattered splendour renovate, Recal its virtues back, and vanquish time and fate ? character of many Tory gentlemen to say, that whatever might be the impropriety of the view they take of public affairs, a great many have advocated Tory principles, after great doubts and under the influence of violent prejudices. —(Cheers.) The case of the Tories Wa-s like that of his trees in Hagley Park—a good portion of the wood in which had gone to decay, and he had thought it expe dient to take away some of the older trees, notwithstand ing the respect he entertained for antiquity, in order to put in their place young and vigorous plants, that might benefit him and his posterity. In carrying on that species of Reform, he had disturbed some of the owls, who, if they could speak, would, he had no doubt, complain most loudly at being displaced from their old rotten tree— their Old Sarum-like tree.—(Great laughter.) In doing -0 he owed no grudge to the owls, but he thought they should keep their proper place, and not shew themselves by day-light.—(Loud laughter.) The Noble Lord here pleaded an excuse for the non-attendance of his gallant kinsman, Captain Spencer, on account of the indispostion of Mrs. Spencer, and continued, he could not but con trast the great and fearful change that had taken place since they last met, with the cheerful hope that ere long the carrying of this great and important measure would be fully accomplished. When it was carried, as he had told the meeting before, he firmly believed it would tend to the restoration of all orders of the State, and he would entreat the meeting to lay aside any thing like harsh feeling towards those who had deprived them hut for a short time of their darling Reform.—(Cheers.) He trusted the present meeting had discretion enough to separirte the politician from the citizen, and to look at a roan's character as a whole.—(Cheers.) Look with eyes of candour on the character of all who oppose you, and remember the words of a great poet-- Cursed be the speech, how well soe'er it flow, That tends to make an honest man my toe. —(Tremendous cheering.) The resolution was then put to the meeting by the High sheriff, who declared it to be carried unanimously. Sir CIIRI,TOPIIHIL SMITH moved the presentation of the Collowing address to his Majesty : TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. We, the noblemen, gentry, and freeholders of the county of Worcester, in county meeting assembled, beg leave to approach your Majesty with every feeling of veneration for your Majesty's person, and with every sentiment of gratitude for the many ad vantages which we, in common with the whole empire, have de rived from your Majesty's paternal care and regard for the wel fare and happiness of your people; and most of all is our grati tude due for the anxiety your Majesty has been pleased to ex press that a Reform should take place in the Commons' House of Parliament,—,a measure we consider of the most vital importance to the best interests of the country, and conducive to the well doing of all classes of your Majesty's subjects. Under the influ ence of these feelings, and this conviction, we experienced the greatest mortification that such gracious wishes, in which the House of Commons so fully concurred, should have been disre garded by the House of Lords, and that the Bill, so anxiously desired by your Majesty, should have been rejected by that branch of the Legislature, thus producing a result equally afflic tive, and equally to be deplored, with any to be found in the whole raw of our country's history. lour Majesty has forbidden despair,"and again cheered us with the expression of an unaltered desire to promote Reform in the Commons' House of Parliament, and with the assurance that the attention of Parliament must be called to such measure at the opening of the ensuing Session ; and your Majesty's Ministers have ditffised general satisfaction by the solemn pledge that they will so introduce, at such period, a Bill equally efficient with the one so lately rejected by the House of Lords. Thus encouraged, we look, in the midst of our disappointment, to the best of Kings, in the assurance that your Majesty would be graciously pleased to'continue to afford to your Ministers that support which may enable them to effect the object of your Ma jesty's wistms mid your people's prayers, by perfecting that full and efficient measure of Reform, which, by establishing an equable principle of representation, will give increased solidity to your Majesty's throne, constitutional liberty to the people, and will allay that strong excitement which has convulsed the whole empire, through disappointed and through blighted hope. In times like the present it was a source of great gratifi cation to tLe people of England to have so patriotic a Monarch sitting on the throne surrounded by such determined Minis ters, and it became the duty of the people to express their confidence in them.—( Cheers.) Doubtless the present meet ing had experienced great regret at the rejection of the Bill, but they had only to wait a short time with patience, and where was the living man who could doubt that a Bill equally effective with the last would ere long be the law of the land. The excitement which had pervaded all ranks would then be done away with, and the happiest (Tremendous cheering.) The wishes of the people were now likely to come to a happy consummation in the great cause of Reform, and he really believed that the Peers and the Bishops would take the opportunity of the introduction of a new Bill, to set themselves right with the people— finding it a piece of good policy to go along with the times —that Reform was irresi.tible, and that in the year 1831, it was not possible for a band of placeinen to trample any longer upon the necks of the people of England— Presumptuous men, think you yon sanguine cloud, Raised by your breath, can quench the orb of day, To-morrow he resumes the golden flood, And glade the nation with redoubled ray. —(Loud and long continued cheering.) Lord LYTTLETON rose amidst loud applause—The cordial congra'ulations which had been bestowed upon him at his first appearance among the inhabitants of Worcester since the rejection of the Reform Bill, had satisfied him that the part he had lately taken was in conformity, not only with his own wishes, but met the approbation of the county at large.—(Loud cries of " Yes, it does.") Though he was very far from thinking it incumbent upon a Peer upon all occasions to render a public account of his conduct to the people of England, yet upon every great occasion, like the present, it was his duty to do so, and vindicate the grounds on which he had exercised that great trust which the Constitution had placed in his hands.— (Cheers.) He had come to the present meeting chiefly for the purpose of ascertainin¢ the opinions of the county, mis represented, libelled, and calumniated as they bad been by those men who formed a small majority in that House, of which he had the honour to belong—who had repre sented that during the interval that had elapsed since they last met, that the sentiments of the country had under. gone a considerable change, and had become unfavourable to that great measure which you then sanctioned.—(Loud cheers and cries of " There is no change in us.") The chief object was to ascertain their opinions, because he judged it to be the duty of a Peer not servilely to conform himself to the opinion of the people, but when that opi nion was rationally and decidedly expressed, and with re spect too to a matter in which their dearest rights and in terests were concerned, he held that it concerned every man to ascertain the wishes of the people, that he might carry with him to the House of which he was the Member, the opinion of that part of the county which he more particularly repre sented.—(Loud cheering.) Was, he would ask, the co ronet which had descended to him from his ancestors a mere gewgaw ? God forbid—it was connected with the most important duties.—(Loud cheering.) Was the question of Reform a personal question ? Men with high metal, but with little sense, had thought it so. To such men be would say, it was all very well if they were alone concerned ; they might, if they chose, fight a duel, and risk their lives—(Laughter)—and perhaps the State would not he much hurt by that—(Continued laugh- i ter)—but what right had they, their Royal Highnesses, their Graces, or their Lordships—(Loud laughter)__ to trample upon the rights of their fellow subjects ? (Loud cheering.) He would now, with the approbati^n of the meeting, enter a little into the explanation of his own conduct—and on that chapter he should be rather short, for it had already been vindicated by what had been said of those who had taken a different course,—and lie should, therefore, take it, that in voting as he did, he bad met with the approbation and sanction of the county.—(Loud cries of " Yes.") When last be had the honour of meeting the inhabitants of the county, he had told them that the mea sure of Reform introduced by his Majesty's Ministers was one that was constitutional anti safe, and calculated to main tain the splendour of the Crown, and the great privileges of the Aristocracy—(Loud cheering)--of that opia nion be remained still—thinking it calculated to satisfy the just demand of every thinking man, and to take away from the members of the Aristocracy that odium whirls he was sorry to say rested upon so many of them at the present moment, and which had led to those acts which had filled the country with alarm. Ile had no doubt in the firm determination of Ministers to carry the measure, which should substantially be the same as the one just thrown ou'—not one atom less popular—anti he felt confident that nothing would induce them to depart from that determination, If, therefore, they were not properly supported by the House of Lords they nee's must resign their places—the consequence will be the ap pointment of fresh Ministers--if time should be givers for that in the great tionsmotion that would than take piece throughout the country, who would attempt to carry on the Government in spite of the the House of Commons, and who would undoubtedly fail in such rash despotism.—(Cheers.) Such being the course intended to be adopted by Ministers, the expression of the tfrtermination of that great county meeting might be ne cerscry e:s. the spy ect.—(Clieers.) It might become ne cessary to put in force Lama great exercise of the Royal prerogative, to avert the calamities that might ensue to case what he had been anticipating should come to pass. The best chance of avoiding the extreme exercise of the Ilaiyal prerogative, and to avert the chance of an addition to the horse of Lords, was by expressing strongly the opinions of the meeting alien the subject. For himself he thought an addition to the House of ;sonic, to the extent thought of would Le a great evil not only to himself but to all who called themselves Englishmen, and the reason why he thought it would be an evil was because it was a great thing that the people should have men of independent fortunes and high character to represent them in the House of Commons..--( Loud !Them.) A principal advantage to the people in their Members the House of Commons was, that they were the best bar riers between them and any infringement on the part of the Crown.—(Cheers.) Turn those representatives, however, into Peers, and the people would deprive them.- selves of good representatives, and impoverish the House of Comm.ona of some of its best Members. With re spect to the Tories, when he was last here, lie believed lie said something about them, b u t h e cer tai n ly did anticipate when the elections were over, and when 4 great majority of the House of Commons had carried the Bill, that the per sons whom he then described as owls would have had such a glimmering of what was going on before them, that they would have supported the Bill. That, however, bad not h the ease. He, however, felt it due to the results might be expected—probably it would lead to a greater economy of the public purse, but miracles must not be expected, it must not be expected that it would remove all the distresses under which the country laboured —they were above all human power, and none bat the all. seing eye of Providence could alleviate them.—(Cheers. ) Mr. HANFORD seconded the address. Although in the House of Lords there were Noble Peers who were ready to sacrifice their own interests on the altar of their country, yet it must be remembered that there were also individuals in the same place who dinged to their rotten boroughs with a sort of dying, convulsive grasp.—(Laughter.) He felt great respect for the Members of the House of Lords in their private capacity ; he felt great respect for them as a branch of the Legislature—not only as one of those branches coeval with Royalty itself, but he respected them as the representatives and descendants of those great men who wrung from the hand of a tyrant the first great charter of the liberties of the country.—(Loud cheering.) But still he could not but look at them in the same light as All the great operations of trade could not he carried on hut for that confidence and credit which existed between man andsman, and when once that was destroyed, the Means by which toe labourer was paid would be entirely uprooted—(Cheers)—and men would be soon fouud rioting through the country, not in search of em ployment, but for food, by which to maintain life.—(Cheers.) If the agit ition of the g,reat question had caused the timid to be still more so—if it had been the means of preventing the manufacturer from employing the usual number of workmen, was not th.it a reason why all should join he at and hand in endeavouring to obtain obedience to the laws ?—(Cheers.) Since the accession of George the Third, with but a very short interval, the Tories have been in possession of the Government of the country—they had hail, therefore, every opportunity offered them of making the people prosp.rous and happy ; and had they done so ?—( Loud cries of " No") —but you would all directly say " Yes, yes," if I was to ask you whether they had not almost brought the country to the brink of ruin?—(Cries of " Yes, yes.") As a proof of that he would say, look at the debt—(Laud cheering)-- look to the load of taxation which crushed almost every man to the earth, and more than that, look to the uniform, the strenuous, the determined and undeviating opposition given by the Tories to all improvement.-- (Loud cheering.) Look to the conduct of Sir Robert Peel—(Cries of " Sir Robert Halfway, you mean")—on the question of East Retford.—(Cheets.) Look to the declaration of the Duke of Wellington, that lie was op posed to all Reform.—(Loud cheers.) But, thank God, the sun of the Tories had for ever set, the King was a sincere and honest Englishman, desirous for the happiness of all his subjects, and therefore it was that he had given his confidence to those who now formed the present Administration, in order that they, in their wisdom, might introduce such measures as would give to the people that happiness which they ought to enjoy, and which would make the country flourishing and prosperous. —(Loud cheers.) Could there be a doubt as to the inte grity of Lord Althorp?—(Loud cheering.) Could any man doubt the integrity, the talents, and the industry of Lord Brougham ?—(Tremendous cheering, and cries of " No, no.") Could any mortal man cast but the shadow of a stain on the high and magnanimous feeling of Earl Grey ? —(Redoubled cheering.) Could the people of England at the ❑ext important el isis, place their confidence on better, or wiser, or nobler men, than those endeared names, which would be handed down to posterity with venera tion, and whose memory would live in the hearts of a grateful and devoted people, till time should be no longer.—(Tremendous cheering, and cries of " No, no.") If the Tories were to ask what was to lie gained by the Reform Bill, he would say, was it nothing to inspire the people with heartfelt gratitude—( Loud cheers)—was it nothing to secure their rights—or was it nothing to tranquillize the public mind?—(Excessive cheering.) It was true that they could not flatter them with a Bishop's 'nitre or lawn sleeves, or with even a Deacon's stall— (Loud cheering)—or that high honours should be show ered upon them, but they could at least be promised the approb ttion and gratitude of their countrymen, compared with which, all the high honours the country had to be stow sunk into insignificance. What might the Tories not lose by their opposition to the wishes of the people ? (Cheers.) Would they wish to see the altar of a much loved country laid waste ? Would they wish to see the public peace invaded, and the palace and the cottage levelled to the ground ? Did they wish to see the domestic hearth turned into a charnel-house—if they did, they would con tinue their opposition to the Bill.—(Tremendous cheering.) What might they not expect from the rising of an injured people ?--(Cheers.) But he would exhort the present meeting to support to the utmost his Majesty's Ministers, to behave peaceably, orderly, but firmly, and they might he assured the great object they had in view would he at tained. If the people properly supported Ministers, and who could doubt it, they would have time to give their attention to other measures, after the passing of the Reform Bill, which would be necessary to ensure the tranquillity of the country.—(Loud chi era.) The present was a time when it became all men to come forward. He had been a Re former all his life; nobody could doubt his sincerity—no one could find fault with his consistency, and lie called uponall present to set an example to their fellow-subjects of a love of public order, by concurring with the resolu tion he had proposed. Mr. Richards sat down amidst loud cheers. RICHARD SPOONER, Esq., in coming forward to second the resolution, was received with the most deafening plaudits. He felt on the present occasion greater pleasure than he had experienced at any other time, arising from a conviction that victory—real decided victory—was shortly to be reaped by the ardent advocates of Reform.—(Loud cheers.) He felt great pleasure in seconding the resolu tion, because it had been proposed by one who, during the whole time of his residence in this city, had always acted conscientiously.—(Cheers.) There was no doubt of Reform being carried. The mandate had gone forth that it must pass—the King stood pledged to it—(Cheers) —the House of Commons had said in a voice that could had been taken by one of the previous speakers. not be mistaken, and by a majority unparalleled in its There was one view, however, of the subject which numbers, that it did not represent the people of Eng that gentleman had not adverted to ; for himself he would land—(Loud cheers)—and nothing now stood between not declaim too loudly against th e H ouse o f L o rds, for it the peoples' hope and wishes but 200 Peer., who he would should be kept in mind that though 199 voted against the venture to say, if the people would only allow them to measure, that nevertheless 150 voted for it, and among look around them, they would shortly see the necessity of that number were to be found all those the heroic deeds of Reform.—(Cheers.)

It had been said that Roman Catholics had former. Well, but he (Mr. S.) said why did you not mixed themselves with the question of Reform—he thought vote in favour of the measure brought forward by Mr. if they bad not done so they would have been unworthy of Tennyson, for conferring the East Retford franchise on the name of Englishmen—but he spurned the idea with Birmingham. Oh, said he, that's a very general measure, and contempt, that in doing so they had any sinister purposes I was against that.—(Loud laughter.) Well, but to answer. It was impossible for Roman Catholics to do how came it about if you were a Reformer that otherwise than they had done; their love of their country, you did not vote for Lord John Russell's Bill, and their gratitude to some of the Members of the present Oh ! said he, that was too sweeping a measure, and Administration, called loudly upon them to take the course I could not vote for that—(Laughter)—and so he went they had done.—(Loud cheering . ) Earl Gre y , the head on to every que , tion that was asked him, giving some of the present Administration , years an d y ears a g o resi g ned foolish excuse for not being favourable to it, till at last he power on account of the Catholics—at another period by (Mr. S.) told Mtn that he thought he was a very pretty refused it from the same cause.—(Cheers.)
