He should now refer them only to one wore autho• city, that of one of the ablest Statesmen this country bed ever produced—he' menu' the late 'Lord Chatham. Ott a question touching the eke. live franchise, though only in au Individual in stance, he hail asserted 4# That the privileges of the greatest and the Imeanest subjects stand upon the tame fontidation ; it Will ,therefoi e the highest interest of their Lordships, as it wee their bonodee duty, tis watch over and protect the rights of the people.

Debate might give rite to transient vehemence, and papolar assemblies might be somewhat irregularly eimdeeted, hut the temper of Englishmett ever heist to the still of the majority. Be could see . , 1.00 evil in these popular meetings except Is itat was eoujured up by fear no the one baud, or preju dice on the other. The people lied long sunk Under a gulling weight of taxation, they hid since labourer untler a floetuating . anthlectrying trade, all this they lied suffered inlidenission, were they now.to-he , -tiuspee,ted as seditious or disaffected? They had a right to ask, what was the Constitu tion good for, if what watt called represeotation . wet itt . faet, for the most part, in the bands of the, tiorerotnent itself. ,They hail a right to ask why aft espies* provision . of the Art of Settlement was openly violated—that act which, in its cure to prevent corrupt influence, .had declared, that:no person holding an office tinder the King, or receiv ing a pension front theCrown,shall be capableofsit. t ittg irt.the House of Commons. For his own part he was convinced that triennial Parliaments, acid an extension of the.elective.fronchise to all liousChol dersovould produce a reform that ought to be ,satisfactory. ,He was certainly no advocate fur the support of rotten boroughs, though he kne4r, a very plausible answer ; might be reunited to those who objected_ to them 'in that'phice, and thistly. had been asked how the City 'of London, who complained of rotten boroughs, should for thelitst twentryears have sent 'men to Puiliament who could not open their Mouths theft tvitbant eXCi[• ing leogh, lint it 'vas not difficolt to explain the ex ,, —..ne,ary eiretoustinces which haul 'nits towed the eity,ltepreseot d4ing the la‘ t e, Ns.- rind, IVithregard to the common argument. tbit' the rotten borough's were the means 'of in• men of talunt,.he must reply that such men of talent were in general a nuisance, and were sure to get •intolhe pay. of some had, man or men without talent, though possessed of all the means of corroptioth There was akVit'Y'S'u natural in fluence arising from property, ihnluitry, and ta lent, which would have their proper weight. The peeple would alway,s be, able to distinguish be tween an honest ,man Awl a rogue, a man of Went from a fool, and a man of PrOperty from a hungry grasper after' place nod emolument, In illustra tion of the effects of the rotten horongh system, it might be easily rcnt,trked, that you had mortAtl "ldeals appoioted froin the county .of Cornwall than from any other county of the kingdom ; and front the same quarter canto a large proportion at . the Commissioners of Public Boards, - who got themselves plac e d there by being, eitb r erthent-' selyts or their relatives, the proprietors of rotten boroughs. The public were sery often indebted to the Editors of Newspapers for the lists which they piiblished of the names and votes of 111em b+, of Parliament on i m p ortant questions , on , those occasions it often appeared that a majority of Comity Members voted directly in opposition. tolklittisters, while,they had merely a corrupt ma jority ut placemen and borough-mongers tti their hear!)--'Phis alone atorded the people of England a ,specimen of what 'they were to expect front Parliament as 'at present consti tuted, and furnished an irresistible argument in favour of Reform. Mr. Waithmun then concluded with reading cer. Wit Resolutions, which embodied the leading d0,tvh....., a his lowed'. Davis rose to second the rtest.iuttoni.— There was 1M one who must not sensibly feel and deplore the present alarming situation of the coun try ; and he was glad that the great .question Of ParliAmentary Reform had.beett taken up in that COW, beClMbe he was couvinced, Chet in ito lic Holly collected for discussion, sirotild the noes qoti be debated with more independence and abi lity than by the C or p orat i on o f London. He was well were that the• minds of vast body of the people of this Country had of litte bet:" greatly agitated by the question of Reform, awl they would be indebted to the Corporation of London for giving a tone and dircetiou to their feelings oti this subject. . Nombets of per , uui, nn, the other hand, who felt an ioterest i 6 the (pekoe , . ;lance of abuses, were quite satisfied with things ss they are ,RiNcted view till attenipts.to obtain reform as disturbing the public tranquillity, mud branded all those Who supported ilia cause as Re volutionists. Now he would assert, that these very alarmists, by driving the people to despair, were the very persons most likely to produce the effect which they deprecated.—(llear, hear !) Such Men dwelt on thedifference of opinion among cite advocates of the measure; but he would assert, that unanimity of opinion as to modes was nnne .cessary ; it was sufficient that till should agree as to the essential point : the absolute necessity, anti the precise mode in which it flask*, he effected, ought to be a work of deep ronsideratioU and at' time. He had paid nitiehattention to the speech of the worthy Motor of the Resolutions ; he was astonished at the depth A( reading and considers thin which it displayed, end could nut sufficiently ,express his thanks for the trouble it must have cost him. He Honeyed himself it h tit niatie its slue impassion on , the Cc ttrt and though all might not agree as to the specific ptiints, 'yettre' trusted that all would agree on the .necessitrof some Reform—that on this they would be ona nimous. indeed he could not comprehend hose tang Mall of sense, of noprejudieed nsind, could stand up in support or the present corrupt system, Could it be supposed that person's who notorious" ly purchased their seats . in Parliament, would not rather look to their own private Interests than those of the people at large ? Nothing else was to be expected, anti therefore such an abuse of the very name and porperse 'for which thel set in Par !lament wittno longer to he tolerated. lie hoped the prtment Resolutions would lus.,unanituously adopted, Mr. Jacits agreed with the Mover in thinking that the sentiments now delivered hi that Court would go abroad into the world ; and he only helped that his (Mr. J.'s) sentiments,,tnight also go abroad with 001 e of Mr. %V. llt had /Mulled to the Manchester Resolutions ; Mr. J. had not read them with attention, but he could not help being struck with the probability of the iiihabi - tants ut a country town having the itupressiots that the late riots in Landon bad proceeded from some other cause than the object merely to assemble for the consideration o f petitioning Vatbament, espe cially when connected ,with the preparatiOns of flats and other k'rench-revolutionary parapherna» lia, lie had heard . with much astonishment, and he could scarcely believe in the correctness of hit bearing, when the worthy Mover avowed the sen timent, that the situation ut tilt country is now bi- Miler i and even woraelhan it was previous to 'the Retrofeline of I 6118. What, had we now a tyrant. Stuart on the Throne of these realms? ' Either he had read the history, of 'those tittles to little effect, Or lie deserved. to. be shut up (as Me. W. observed) in a madthousc, if ht-could see th“omparison. He asked, 'did the present Sovereign or his Vicegerent, ever, in the. whole course of his reign, govern without Parliaments ? They had annually assembled ever since he was born, tanttilid he ever raise money Without the consent of Parliament 'Haft 'he at any time de prived the City of London, or any other corpo s ration, of its' charter, in order to be better enes bled to pack a P ar li a m ent , when be coul d no longer go on Without one ? Or has he ever de prived a subject of his liberty, hie life, or his pro perty, without due course of law.? The worthy Gentleman had admitted, that Patliaments 'first originated in the wants of the Sovereign, and were assembled' at first only for the purposes„ of taxation : be , (Mr. J.) had 'hoped, that he would have : gone on, and given the history of Parini meets, from the reign of Edward I, until about 120 years afferivards, when they became a branch of the Legislature :sit he had gone into that histo rical detail, he' would have him s elf seen, from , the whole of this time, and to the present day, a con firmation of his (Mr. J.'s) statement on a.former . occaeion,riz. that property and pi ivilege, nnt,popti t...a b`..641. throughout, the ooly basis of re presentation, known to aim dt I ,,,,, Avvirdgeti by tbe COMititul ion. The piest ion now therefore teasov he ther'this principle should he altered ? The worthy' Mover had quoted several. opiniona of great 'public writers and orators, as to the theoretical and spe culative principles of Civil Covernment. Per haps it' he were to sit down and examine tither hers, or other parliamentary urethra, he could adduce al many, or perhaps mote, who combated and denied those opinions. 'rite worthy Gentle man might have gone on and quoted French wiit• s l ers ; he might have selected passages' frank Roos Bean's .Social Contract ; from' situ works of Can ' doreet 'on the Future Perfectibility of Man, and of Societies ; or he might have proceeded, to quote from that great code. of. radical Reform, " The Rights of Man." The question to deter Mine is, whether we !shall maintain the old Constitu tion, • as descended to us from our fathers, or adopt- - new principles and new theories of improvement, the ultimate end of which we could not foresee ? The worthy Mover had . made some tootations from parliamentary speaker's in the debatei about the Septennial Act ; here Again he would say, much had' been said on both sides ; the result howeVer wits, that after about 23 years' trial of Triennial Parliaments, they were, uttered by a very large majority of both Houses.ri:he preamble to the Septennial Act recites, that great tumults and disorders had arisen from the practice of frennent general Elections: bethowever (Mr.J.), thought possibly some good might arise from Tri ennial Parliaments : and as the extent of the pos sible .evit might be calculated, he for one should have. no objection to their restoration. The wor- thy Molter had admitted, that the constitution had been settled at the Revolution, but that great; corruptions had arisen since that time. Now he, Mr.'J., would take upon Win t. aesort, that from . the laistoryot Englend,t raced from that period to the present, never Oid there publicly appear to be less corruption than at present ; no inst aocc o f modern ' times had occurred of Ministers being charged with receiving bribes in the execution of their office; no instance had occurred of the Sovereign himself being suspected of sUch a crime as had beefs broadly stated in those dayi. Corruption ever had existed in free States--.it ever w° ol4 exis t, like vice and moral evil ; the greet end, he witted, of good Government is to check and connieract such tendency. The sinecures of the present day were held up as instances of corrup tion : lie most sincerely deprecated the existence of 'such' evils in the Constitution ; but there was some consolation in reflecting, that lithey could, not at once be removed, an Act of Parliament had many, years ago also.,provided for their dis continuance at the death of the preseuttholders: Fire late Marqtas of Buckingham's had accord. ingly ceased ; the others would also cease eve long,. and now altogether; in .atiment • did not notch exceed 200;0001. poi. annum, making a burden of about one-foOrth the price at a quer tern loaf to each individual, or abimt 411. each per year.. The worthy Mover had, throughout lint' argument, reasoned upon the notoriety Heat a Re-. form in Pat liament would retursep the, wants of the People : now this position was by no means eri.;' dent.to:hiM ; be could not take up a newipaper contains( letters from the Continent, without obs serving, that the (inures* of the times seemed to be eeiseral ; arising from two crosses, the ex haustion occasioned by thelate war, and the hand of Providence in permitting an unfavourable sea son. Why thee, be would ask, should we expect to' be exempt front the general calamity ? Was it then fair or just that the Constitution and (Jo vernment of this country should be charged with the infliction of She present distress ? end hoW would a Reform in Parliament cure it ,? We had to-day, for the first times. understood what were the precise objects of the - Worthy- Mover's views on the subject : it was true • that Mr. Hunt, and other political quicks, had recommended universal suffrage; but the worthy Gentleman, us a more regular ~and .sober practitioner,' seemed' desirous to confine it to f ree h o ld e r s, Copyhoblera,, and householders; in large town,. How wou ldf this operate ? It was, notorious that in the chi) of Westminster teas the elective, franchise us exteiidetll to this description of v o t ers : and h e would ask, whether Si r Francis Burdett, or Lord Cochrane, were the representatives of the property in West minster l Much property and many large !wines] existed there ;, but: was it not notoriona that the small hooka far exceeded-them it»trunber ? .So; therefore, the present members were more pro perly the representatiVes of the inhabitants of St. Giles's, and other populous streets,. than of the men of property in Westminster, This would also be generally experienced in amber places ; coisSe quently population would swallow up the"itifit epee, in a great degree,of properi y; and ripriiettt • tives only would be returned wlio to - tilrlttiost estsil by fine speeches,work upon the piss:ions oldie mul titude, He ditlsnot see that reform in Parliatnent wag necessary to the reduction at expenditure; knew hot the pr esent Mini sters, or he personally I 1 Iv as in any way connected with them; bat h t knew t hat in private lif e individuals, when leaul o. off boldness, cotlld not wind - u their affnirs, he Peci4 ll 7, if .e.xlegttive; in a very short . 13 n e ' 0 therefore musi !conclude, 'that in bringing' close the ntaetii i tiery of such a mighty toucan' e it the late war i lsome time Must first ehir should, .hOwevcr, soon see their coaduct iu tllit respect, and if he saw no sincere endesvon,°lT`i, ', 1 1 1 If effect retrenchment and economy,. he,wati osa, heart and band with • the Gentlemen opp li petitioning for such objects. _The worthy had alluded to the Bill of - fliglits; at e n ' t • C- J1 the frequent choice of •Padiament : ( 111 " . from ,recollection only; - thought he " s taken ; the declaration was, that ." ought to he held frequently ;" not word 00. 1 ' e j about their being frgqiiently chosen : 3 ", iill „ 1 ,0 tberefilee•lhat this constitutional rse , exactly foliowieof at present; contrary.to the tice of the Stuart family •: the object'''.
