BIRMINGHAM MEETIING. THE IRISH COERCIVE BILL. (BY EXPRESS.) Yesterday a most numerous and highly respectable meet ing of the inhabitants of Birmingham was held at Beards worth's Reposiioty, for the purpose of considering the address voted by the House of Commons in reply to the King's Speech, and the Bill introduced into the House of Lords, establishing arbitrary power in Ireland; and also for the purpose of petitioning the House of CoMmons on those subjects, and respecting the present severe distress of the industrious classes. Long before the hour of meeting the Repository was filled almost to suffocation, and we are confident we do not exageerate when we state that up. wards of 15,000 persons were present. F. Mueerz, Esq., took the chair shortly after eleven o'clock, and on coming forward to address the assembled multitude, was most enthusiastically cheered. He said that he had never on any occasion taken the chair with .o much regret as the present. He felt the importance of the subject they were met upon, but he regretted that the inhabitants of Birmingham had occasion to meet on such a subject. He bad hoped that the conduct of the present Government would have prevented the necessity of any further meetings in that town.—(Cheers.) It had always been his maxim hitherto, whenever any complaints had been made of the intentions of his Majesty's Mini• sters, to say, give them time, give them a chance, as, so long as the Reform Bill was under consideration, it was utterly impossible for them to take measures for the relief of the distresses of the country; but that he felt confident that the very first opportunity they had they would came forward with measures for the alleviation of those distresses under which the country laboured, which were to be attributed to the mismanagement of the last, and he was sorry to he obliged to add, in consequence of the course they had pursued, the present Goverument. It was to have been expected that at the opening of the present Parliament, Ministers would have put some sort of comfort for the people into the King's speech. They had, however, not done ,o; for what was the speech fur• which, be it remembered, the King was not responsible ? Why it contained not a word about the distresses of the country, not a syllable was said respecting them, though a speech delivered 12 months before had stated that something must be done for the country. There was no intimation of any measures to be taken for the relief of the country; all that was said was—" That habits of older and industry were to be encouraged.—(Hisses, and cries of " Shame.") This was an insult not only to the people of Birmingham, but the whole country. So far from it being necessary to encourage habits of order and industry, be would take upon himself to say that they existed in all parts of the country. All that was wanted was, a supply for the labour of the country, and a proper remuneration for that labour. Men at the present time, working four times as much as they ought to do, could not obtain a livelihood.— (Shame.) He now believed that Ministers, who lived in one continual whirl of dissipation, knew very little more of the miseries of the working people of this country than the Hottentots.—(Laughter.) And what was more, the present Ministers would never know, unless they took much better means of obtaining information.—(Shame.) It had invariably been the practice of Government to get their information from Government people, than whom no persons were less inclined to give true information.— (Cheers.) And that was the reason why Government bad been so frequently led astray, and had been astonished at the result of what they bail done. It had been said the Duke of Wellington had been driven out of the Mi nistry for want of the Reform Bill. He denied that fact. If the Noble Duke had known how to properly govern the country, end had adopted a course by which the distresses of the country might have been alleviated, there never would have been half the cry for the Reform 11111 which there had.—(Cheers.) Bilore the present Ministry came into office they cried out for retrenchment; but what had they done since they came into office?—(Cries of " Nothing.") Foul sinecures still existed, but those, as compared with the distresses of the country, were as a drop of water in the ocean.—(Cheers.) A standing army was still kept up, Government knowing it had acted so improperly that it could not exist without one. Now the only way for a Government properly to conduct the affairs of a country, was, to look to the cause of the distress, and do all th. y could to make the people happy. By that means, and that means alone, the immense standing army might be got rid of. It had been said that it was of the first iwpureaove to do away with the taxes on knowledge. That he (Mr. M.l could not admit; the most - important measure in his mind was the feeding and clothing of the naked and hungry..-(Cheers.) The Chancellor of the Exchequer had come forward and said that .he could not take off all the taxes on knowledge, which amounted to about 150,0001. a year; if he could not part with so paltry a sum, what could he be expected to do to relieve the distresses of the people, who could out he happy unless a reduction of taxation to the amount of 25 millions per annum took place?--e(Loud cheers.) He could not but advert to the conduct of Mr. Cobbett (though be was tio disciple of his), since be had had a seat in the House of Commons. The course he h id pursued entitled him to the gratitude of the country.—(Cheers.) He had brought forward a motion relative to stamps, showing that in that alone the poor man was taxed nine-tenths more than the ' rich. Lord Althorp himself admitted that this was too true, but justified it by the assessed taxes being as bad. —(Laughter.) If that Noble Lot d bad given him self a moment's consideration, he would have seen that he bad been making himself a laughing stock for every reasonable being. He (Mr. M.) felt convinced, after the statement of Mr. Cobliett, that Lord Althorp would hsive said, had he not been fortified by men of more nerve tha❑ himself, " It is too true that the stamp duties bear most heavily on the poor man, and we will make some al teration in them immediately." There was no natural cause for distress in the country, and he would venture to say that no man for the last 18 years could point out any providential cause. The country had been blessed with peace ; Providence had bestowed upon it in abundance the necessaries and even the luxuries of life, which had been made an improper use of. The sole cause of the distress arose from misgoverntnent, and so lung as the Government denied an investigation into the causes of the distress, so long would it continue to increase, and so bad would it become, that Ministers would be•ashamed of what they had done.—(Cheers.) It bad been said that the Truck Bill was a great cause of distress. He did not think so, but he would admit that it was one of its effects. No man could truck in 1821 or 1825, and if there was plenty of labour for every man, no one would work for a toaster who paid in truck, and there would be no necessity for such measures if the condition of the country was ins proved.—(Cheers.) Upon the same principle was this Factory Bill, which was intended to reduce the hours of labour of children in factories. It had a charitable and good intention, but a mistaken one. It was nut a subject for legislative interference, for that interference never could be effective. To remedy such evil, Government must either alter the money or the corn laws. It was abso lutely impossible they could exist as they were.—(Hear, hear.) No persons could be surprised at the state of the country when they looked at its enormous debt and heavy taxation, the whole of which, either directly or indirectly, came from the sweat of the brow of the in ' dustrious classes.—(Loud cheers.) These had been his ' opinions for the last twenty years. He would now come to the consideration of the Bill levelled against his unfor • tunate Irish brethren. This showed how different men ' were in and out of office.-,(Loud cheers.) Till the pre sent moment he had looked with reverence on the names of his Majesty's Ministers; but when, as now, he saw them invading every constitutional right—when he saw them coming forward and asking for powers greater than the most violent Tories ever thought of, he could not help exclaiming with the prophet, " Do you think that your ser vant is a dog that he can do such things?"—(Cheering.) If he bad been asked lately about Ministers, he should have said, that they would much rather lay their heads on the block then bring forward such a measure —(Cheers) — so full of mischief and destruction.—(Laud cheering.) He was no party man, he would support any man and any measures, provided only they were good ones—(Cheers) — what between Whig and Tory, it might be truly said, that England had been crucified between two thieves.— (Loud cheering.) Ile felt no doubt that many men in the present Parliament, if they had not been pledged to vote for Ministers, would never have stated their determination to support so iniquitous a measure as that which bad been brought forward against Ireland. If Ministers had acted manfully, they would have come forward and said to those Members, we cannot quiet Ireland without suspending the Habeas Corpus Act, and the Trial by Jury. If you ap prove of the measure, support it; if you do not, cast it • off; and if we cannot carry it without you, we must give up our places. He approved of the Church Reform for Ireland, but he approved much more of that Reform which would feed the people. To make the people rational, you must make them comfortable.—(Loud and con• tinned cheering.) If Ministers bad said that they knew the Irish people were in a dreadful state, and that they were determined to take such steps as would remove their difficulties, he should have thought them the best of men, but when they attempted to coerce a starving poptt lation, what was to be expected but that murder, blood shed, and crimes of the foulest description would be corn mitred ?---" ‘ Shaine, shame.) The honesty of some Ministers was one of the greatest evils of the country. How many men in both Houses of Parliament would support ineasures now which they would have op posed, bat for the proverbial honesty of Ministers. (The Honourable Gentleman then went on to pic ture, in the most glowing terms, the miseries of Ireland, and 6,lm:hided by expressing his sorrow at the ill health of Mr. Sebolefield, who, he could assure the meeting, was fully aware of the bad-consequences that would result from the measure, and was determined to oppose it.—(Cheers.) G. DE BOSCOE Arrwoon, Esq., rose to propose the first and second resolutions. It was not, as had been stated, agitation that caused distress, but it was distress that closed agitation.—(Loud cheers ) He had hoped that under the present Government and a reformed House of Com mons, the people would have hail cause to be satisfied with leaving the management of the affairs of the country in the hands of his Majesty's present Ministers. He need not tell the meeting how bitterly those hopes had been disappointed. The people of Ireland, if the present mea sure passed, instead of being ten times more happy under the influence of the Reform Bill, would be ten times more miserable. The blsssings of peace would be worse to them than war.—(Cheers.) The hand of labour would be paralysed, and its due reward would be put an entire end to.—(Cheers.) It hal been said that diatress in Ireland was owing to over production,—tbat there was too much corn in the country; he would ask any thinking man whether such a statement did not carry with it its own contradiction. It remained for the people of Ireland to see whether they would be content with what had been done, or whether they would not demand justice at the hands of the House of Commons.--(Cheers.) He was glad that lie had not to comment at any length on the degrad ing measures that lid been brought forward to coerce Ire land, for he felt confident that be could'not comment upon them without breaking through the bounds of decorum. (Cheers.) Ministers had not used one word shout the distress of the country; they had only called on the House of Commons to teach those people habits of industry who had lung been without a proper reward for their labour.—(Cheers.) Great as the sufferings of the people of England were, those of the people of Ireland were much greater. The prospects of that country had been entirely destroyed. Corn had been exported from that country, had been taken away from the mouths of a starving people, who bad been obliged to live on sea weed, on purpose that it might be sold at a high price in Eng land, to please the cupidity of the Irish farmers.—(Shame) Guild it be wondered at, he would ask, that such a people were driven to despair, and that they should break through the boundaries of the law ?—(Cries of "No, no.") What was the remedy proposed for all this ? Why, because a few outrages had been committed in Ireland, the whole population of the country were to be deprived of that Constitution which had been purchased for them by the blood of their forefathers.—(Cheers.) They were to be deprived of the Lid by Jury, and that land of misery was to be placed under martial law.—(Cries of " Shame.") He bad often expressed his opinions on the calmness with which the Government of this country had looked upon the tyranny of Nicholas towards unfortunate Poland, Instead of execrating his conduct, Ministers bad set bins up as an example for themselves in Ireland.—(Loud cheers.) It might be thought that he had spoken too strongly—(Cries of " No, no")—he could look at Mini sters in no other light than that of having adopted a course of policy not to relieve distress, but a determina tion to put down agitation only by the most arbitrary power.—(Cries of " They can't do it.") They were seeking to stifle the voices of the people of Ireland by mi litary despotism.—(Loud cheers.) If Ireland was thus to be used, the people of England must not flatter themselves that such a course weed not be pur sued also towards them.—( Tremendous cheering and hissing.) When any outrage was committed in England, or even when there was no outrage, if the people were combined in peaceable array to demand a redress of grievances, Lord Grey wool f be prepared to go to the House and state that the agitation was so great and the agitators so wily, that they would net break the law, and therefore you must give us a law by which we can punish them. The people were determined to have their rights, but they were equally as determined not to break the law. —(Cheers.) Taxation without representation was tyranny.—(Cheers.) Taxation ought to be borne by persons of property and not by the poverty of the country. If the people who had to impose taxes had also to pay them, they would take very good care what taxes they placed upon themselves. - Every tax, as had been justly observed by Mr. Cobbett, bore on the working classes.—(Cheers.) He felt, with shame, that both Whigs and Tories were against the people, and he hail no hesitation in saying, that when Lord Grey found tha , the Members of the reformed Home of Commons would not support.hirn, he would fall back on the Duke of Welling ton and Sir Robert Peel far support. He defied both Whigs and Tories, and claimed justice for the people.— (Cheers.) He would tell Lord Grey, that in proportion to the disappointment of the people's hopes would he the execration that would he hurled on his head by every true-hearted Englishman, who would tell him, in spite of all the powerful measures he could bring forward, that no Minister should rule, either in England or in Leland, who did not do so for the peace and happiness of the peo ple ?—(Loud cheers.) 'I he worthy gentleman concluded by proposing the first and second reaolations,for which, see advertisement. Mr. B. HADLEY rose to second the two resolutions which bad just been proposed, cordially agreeing with every word which they contained. He felt no doubt that they would be carried by the present meetir ig, not only by a tri umphant majority, but with an unanimous feeling of the whole. After the very excellent spe t ich which bad been delivered by the Chairman, and his friend who spoke last, who had travelled over more ground than he in tended to pass, he should only tel it necessary to go a little more into detail with the King's speech.—(Hear, hear.) In it there wars a total omission of the distressed state of the nation, the result of culpable ignie ance, or the most cold blooded was it of any thing like sympathy for the sufferings of the people. Now, what said that speech ? " Never at any time did subjects of greater interest or magnitude call for the ottention of Parliament." What were those subjects en` great interest and magnitude ? The civil war in Portugal,. Ore unsettled state of the Dutch and Belgic question—(Ch ters)—and the remaining two-thirds of the speech relerr ed to the Church, and some alterations were promised wi th regard to a more equal distribution of its revenues, but not one word was said of the universal distress that existed among all the great interests of the country, the fuudholder excepted.—(Hear.) Nothing was said about the languishing state of trade; nothing was said about the almost absolute ruin of the commercial interests of the country ; the agricultu rail, the shipping and colonial interests, were not stated to l)e in a state of extreme languishment. Profits were email dieted, and no man would be justified in embarking a large r capital in either of them.. There was another part of the r speech which had excited no little astonishment in his mind. It was that in which his Majesty recommended habit is of industry and good order among the labouring class, is of the community. Was there not a Bill now ha afore Parliament for the purpose of reducing the h ours of labour in the cotton manufactories of the count ry ? and could a population tile that of this count try, the most industrious in the world, require a re commendation like that, at a time, too, when thousat tds and tens of thousands of honest, orderly, and industrio us men were going about from door to door begging II ►r work ?—(Cheers.) The unexampled state of quietude LI the country—how long it might continue, God onl• r knows—would perhaps induce his Majesty's Ministers ti recommend good order and peaceable demeanour among the labouring classes, especially as they saw some neces sity for it, when they contemplated the atrocious mea sures they were about to inflict on Ireland, and when they bad determined to introduce none for the bene fit of England,—(Loud cheers.) With respect to the necessity of a graduated property-tax, Ricardo had said, that the consumer must pay all taxes. That might be true under our present system, but not so of a property tax. Unequal taxation was the great curse of the country, as it was laid on its industry, and not on its property. Let the earnings of the poor and industrious be what they may, they pay more than one-half in direct or indirect taxation, while the real property of the country was almost altogether untouched. That was a crying evil, and ought to be redressed. Should they shed tears of compassion for the Greeks and the Poles, and nut for the It ish ? Should they establish Polish Associations to keep alive the recollection of Polish wrongs, and do nothing for Ireland?—(Loud and continued cheering.) As an Englishman, deeply sympathising with his suffering, starving, insulted, and now about to be Polandir,d— (Loud cheers)—fellow-subjects in Ireland, lie could not conclude without expressing his abhorrence at the atro cious measures now passing through the House of Com mons, for the enslavement of that unhappy country.— (Loud cheers.) He must not be told of the merciful dis position of Lord Grey—(Groans and hisses)—all that had been said or sung of his humanity. He who had it in his power to relieve the sufferings of Ireland, and who refused to do them justice, or inquire into the cause of their distress and misery, for the purpose of re moving it; he who bad goaded them to acts of des peration, and exhibited his mercy and humanity by forging fetters for their limbs, and putting gags into their mouths, and who did his utmost to stifle the cry of complaint from suffering millions, had no pretensions to the character of a human being, was nothing more nor less than a Nero or a Caligula. Should the people of England let this be inflicted on their Irish brethren to-day, to-morrow it would be their own turn, for he felt assured that if Lord Grey found that he could silence a suffering people, who were clamorous for justice, by establishing martial law, and putting down public meetings, and abl fishing trial by jury, the time was not far distant when a destruction as swift would be hurled at Englishmen.— (Hear, hear.) The best and the only way to avoid the infliction of a similar measure, was to petition the House of Commons unceasingly, to remonstrate against any and every measure which might curtail the happiness or in fringe the liberties of the peopie.—(Cheers.) As Jeremy Bentham had said it was only by making the ruling few uneasy, that the oppressed many obtained relief; and Jef ferson, another great authority, had said that above all things it was necessary to cherish the spirit of the people, and keep alive their attention. It would not do to be too severe upon their errors, but they should be reclaimed by enlightening them.—(Cheers.) The worthy gentle man concluded by heartily seconding the two resolutions ; which the Chairman put to the meeting, and declared to be carried unanimous'y. Mr. SALT, in moving the third resolution, and the pe tition consequent thereupon, regretted that Ministers had not come forward with words of consolation for Eng land, and had expressed a determination to bind Ireland in chains of tyranny.—(Cheers.) [Ste advertisement for resolution and petition.] Mr. WooLrrEr.n seconded the resolution, which was c irt ied unanimously. _ _ Rev. T. M. 11'DONNELL, in rising to prop:re the 4th resolution, said that he felt no small consolation and ex ultation that the gentlemen who had come to that town on behalf of the Irish people, had come to a place where philanthropy was known to exist. He trusted that Birmingham would be the cradle of Irish, as well as English liberty.—(Cheers.) Hitherto he had con sidered Lord Grey as the benefactor of the human rave, but in consequence of the measures he had brought for ward for the subjugation of Ireland, he could only rank him among the cAnpaniens of the Sidumeths and Castle reagirs.— (Loud cheers.) lie had introduced into the Howe of Lords a measure more atrocious than bad ever been concocted either by Lord Sidmouth or Lord Castle reagh—(Loud cheering)—and he had done so in di rect opposition to the professions of himself and his party. —(Loud cheers.) The people of Ireland had not been unaccustomed to gagging, and Lord Grey, Lord Althorp, and Lord Brougham, the eloquent up. holders of the people's rights, when there were none but Tories to oppress the unhappy Irish, advocated their cause; but Lord Grey was now proceeding with respect to that unhappy country in a more nefarious career than ever the Tories had pursued. Without any evidence whatever to support such a measure, he had introduced the present Bill.—(Hisses.) The 'furies had never brought forward such a measure without evidence ; they had never dared to ask the Parliament to rely on their honour and their principles of discretion.—(Cheers.) The Rev. Gentle man here adverted to a speech of Lord Althorp's in 1819, which concluded with a motion, that the evidence brought tidal., the House was not sufficient to sanction the intro duction of such a measure as was then contemplated. The only evidence on which Earl Grey had relied, was a letter from a superintendent of police, and that of the Attorney General, who lived on the people. Why, he would were the people of Ireland to be subjected to martial law in 1833, when in 1819 Lord Grey himself thought there ought to be a Committee of Inquiry on the subj.•et? He would tell the Ministers of the country, if they wished to establish peace in Ireland, they must let those people know that the law was not their enemy, and that there was not one law for the poor and another for the rich.— (Loud cheers.) The Ministers of the country seemed de termined that whatever they did for Ireland it should be done with a bad grace. For the last 700 years every thing hail been done against Ireland. The Rt form which Ministers had brought forward in the Church of Ireland was a complete mockery ; the time had now arrived when the people of Ireland would accept of nothing but justice, and they would require now a Reform that would benefit not only the curates, but those who paid them.— (Cheers.) He trusted that no person, who was a friend to Ireland, would consider it necessary that such measures as had bens introduced by Lord Grey, should become the law of the land. It had been said that the people of Ireland were in a state of insurrection, that Government had been reduced to the last extremity, and bad nu other course to pursue. He denied the fact, and he would appeal for a confirmation of that denial to the two Irish gentlemen who had attended the meeting that day, Mr. Lawless and Mr. Lalor. What, he would ask, would be the consequences in Ireland of putting in force the In surrection Act? That had been tried in Ireland already. Why, that the most brutal and lustful villain, under the pretence of searching for arms, would invade the sanctity of the female chamber, drake away with a husband who was in the way of his lustful passions, or destroy a bro ther that stood between him and his designs. Lord C!on curry, some time ago, had made a similar statement to this in the House of Lords, and what was the consequence ? Why, their Lordships condcse.onled to laugh at it.— (Shame, shame.) The Rev. Gentleman here went on to detail several instances of the oppressive and cruel manner in which the Insurrection Act bad operated in Ireland. Then, as to courtsmartiat, a person probably advanced in years, was to he brought before a parcel of young pop. pets who had hardly attained twenty-one—probably some of the young Hannibals—(Laughter)—probably some of the beardless sons of Earl Grey—(Loud laughter) —or probably a son of that enemy of his country—Sir Francis Burdett.—(Loud hisses.) Such it was who would sit in judgment, probably on those with whom they bad previously had a quarrel.—(Loud disapprobation.) For his own part, if he was to be tried by a militiry tribunal, 111 him have a jury of soldiers, and not one of officers. If Somerville had been tried by a jury of his comrades, he never would have received the two hundred lashes which he did. The Rev. Gentleman concluded by mov ing the 4th resolution, Air. GEORGE ED3IONDS, in seconding the resolution, said that be had to complain that Ministers had turned round upon the people, and had employed that power which had been given them for the good of the people at large, not for their benefit, but for their destruc tion. He detested the political Joseph Surfaces who employed all their docirines of principle and morality, only that they might oppress the people. The Whigs never intended to inflict some deadly evil, but they came for ward with some pretence of serving you. It was not long since the Whigs brought forward a measure for the purpose of collecting tithes at the point of the bayonet ; they have come forward with a voluntary proposition for the reform of the infamous Irish Church—(Loud cheers) .—for which they even obtained the flattering appro bation of Mr. O'Connell.—(Cheers.) What was that measure followed by ? Why, the detested mea sure, which, to use the words of his friend Mr. Hadley, was to Polandize Ireland. Such was the conduct of the Whigs—such was the conduct of those pretended friends, but most atrocious enemies. —(Loud cheers.) The people of Ireland had been ground to the very earth by every species of oppression, and was it to be wondered at that they should turn on their foes ? The only law that was now wanted in Ireland was, to restrain its oppressors—not its poor heart-broken and famished inhabitants. How could any man expect the people of lreland to obey the law when it was not their friend.—(Cheers.) What was the remedy proposed by Earl Grey for this violation of the law ? Why, the putting an end of all law together, the breaking up of the whole constitution of the country. He would tell Lord Grey that the introducing of such a measure was a violation of the law for which he (Lord Grey) ought to be made answerable to his country, and for which he ought to be impeached and lose his Lead.—(Partial cbeers, disapprobation, and murmurs.) Berl Grey had said that the Government was called upon to exercise the first duty of a Government. Be (Mr. E.) admitted that he was bound to.do so ; but ea hat, he would ask, was that first duty ? To preserve race and good order. Was that peace to be preserved b y giving power to every ruffian to enter the sacred ha bitation of social life, and poison all its springs? He would t. all Earl Grey that the Irish never could exist under st ich a measure, and that if be persevered in it peace must be produced by their universal destruction. If any good wa s to be effected by Government it must be done by una vimity, for without it nothing could be done by the per)} de of Ireland. Vr. JOHN LAWLESS, who bad just arrived from Dub- lin, ame forward amidst loud cheers. The meeting had heard the recitals of the sufferings of Ireland that day, and h e felt convinced that they would stand forward with bim in resisting the blow that was threatened to th, r last moment.—(Loud cheers.) The Irish people, like those of Birmingham, would never submit to despotism. He trusted that the example of the present meeting would be followed in every town in the country, and that England, the land of liberty and happiness, would in reality show herself the friend of degraded Ireland.— (Cheers.) The men of Ireland, resident i❑ London, would be ready, i f required, to display the feeling that existed in their breast a towards the damnable and abominable mea sures of Load Grey.—(Loud cheers.) The measures which that Soble Lord was adopting, would inevitably tend, instead of preventing, to give new zest to the dis eussion in favour of the repeal of 4 the man in Ireland would, if that measure 13.40 into a acv become a Repealer. He returne d the :Otte on the part of the people of Irelind , his ile".....,t"—tdi, for the great and glorious exhibition they had 10"-vey' Union.' * :V that liay , and he could as,ure them that he should cloy to unhappy brethren in Ireland the feelings of arose in his breast on beholding so sublime and 1;19(.1%0 spectacle, and he should tell the people of :1031,."50r they might rest these elves secure in the bosom . . .. lisle beneficence.—Loud cheers. ) n Sad r r The resolution was then put by the Cnai rma-t d ttss ared to be carrd unan. The Rev. Mr. ie M•DoNNELL imously moved the adoption of following petiti O F T$ " TO THE HONOURABLE THE COMMON- i s it- , r,;11 ° ~in UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITA IRELAND, IN PARLIAMENT ASSE1SIBIS:00 " THE HUMBLE PETITION OF THE INHAB so A OF BIRMINGHAM, IN TOWN'S iv-lE ETI SEMBLED. r o ° _,l r oi " SHOWETII—That your petitioners approach Yon e, 1 .. : d grie le it able House with feelings of astonishment, horror, having learned that his Majesty's Ministers au.5.,0011 plied to your Honourable House for unconstitutiou 1 r to oppress the people of Ireland. that may appear consistent with the respect whic h . o otS f to evince towards your Honourable House, the sen' i ister,' ! indignation with which they have heard that the blip.,r that, ..
