state of public distress.—(Hear, /rear.)r•Although
the agriculture of the country was for from being
in that flourishing condition which their Lordships
could desire, yet the person■ engaged in it bring
comparatively happier than those engaged in ma-
nufactures, the discontent was exclusively confined
to the latter. If they went farther, and asked in
which of the tuanufactu►ing districts disaffection
most prevailed, they would find he war justified
saying that it prevailed chiefly among those per-
-11011.1 who were dependant neon that manufacture
which was most depressed, namely, the cotton
manufacture. Fie had sdatemetits on the table fur-
ensiled by the Item authority, to whew the distresses

• week; front which a man was to support himself
and his boniily.—(flear, hear.)—Was it outwitting
that amidst such distreta . the riposte of sedition
should find apt motetilds to work on ; and did not
persons who, under such privations, erred from the
strict line of duty, deserve. in their Lordships' opi-
nion, to be distinguished from others who might lie
equally guilty without having the same excuse to
offer ?—(1-/ear, hear.)—During the last 20 years of
our history, the (xi-moony of the country was of a
'more to lead to such a result. It was one of the
misfortunes of an advanced state of society. al-
though a necessary consequence of west improve-
ments iu trade, that there should be much fixed
capital in a country, the worst and most mintediaie
effect of which was the difficulty of threcting it to
other employments, when occasions might retitler
it necessary. That very division of labour wile!)
was the attendant of an advanced state of society,
mud which iu its operation produced the best and
most happy results, tended to iticrease this dills
culty, by rendering each particular workman part
of the fixed capital of the try, and no less diffi-
cult to be governed by circumstances than any part
of the machinery, or turned into new channels of
industry. In proportion to the length of time that
trade had continued in the same channels, so would
this emba • ent be found to increase ; for
toe workmen would continue their accustomed em-
ployment as long as possible, they would thereby
increase the stock oil hands at the moment in which
the markets were most encumbered, the stock
would return upon them. rod their difficulties
would every moment become greater. %Voir had
created artificial mein, of employment, its unusual
length had confirmed them, • population was
brought up to certain habits, and when the means
of their employment, s artificially created, had
ceased to exist, they were thrown for support upon
the cominenity, which was to • state very different
from the time when that population was ties' vested.
The commercial population of the country was to
the agricultural as 900,000 families to 700,000 Bel-
lies, and the disproportion was too great to prevent
the former from feeling much distress on the cessa-
tion of their wonted sources of industry.
The evils arising from this 14011 f CC were mate.
rially aggravated by two circume. ices--one, the
of the • laws ; the - the extension

system . ft poor ; other,
of our paper currency; the effect of both being to
offer a bounty and encouragement to artificial spe-
culation. The state of the country had materially
changed since the comm.ncement of the war—
hum a revenue and expenditure of 16 millions, to
a revenue of from 50 to Go tailbone ; and so large
a portion of the population thrown out of employ-
ment, was driven u; the remainder fur support,
when every individual paying taxes to the Govern-
ment was subject to a burden in this respect treble
what had been paid previous to the war, double
the amount paid by every individual in the
wealthiest country in Europe, and more then
double what was paid by any tlitrß country.—
Exposed to such distresses, was it surprising that
a large portion of the people should have recourse
to projects which in their minds might be productive
of some remedy, that a population struggling fur so
long a I line between life and misery, should not have
patience to watch the slow gradations between po-
verty and crime, and feeling the burden 48 should
shake their encumbered backs and fling it off?"
But the corruption had not affected the whole body
of the people, it was admitted even by those whittle
interest it was to represent the public in the worst
possible state, that but an inconsiderable portion
of the people were infected by the " poison" of
sedition and infidelity. A large portion enjoying
the advantages uF educatiou, which even under
existing circumstances lie certainly should out la-
ment, only shewed an active and eager curiosity
about events, and the means that might be adopted
for remedying the general evils. Alr. Hay, the
principal Magistrate at Manchester, acknow-
ledges that all the people assembled there on
the 16th were not reformers, but that at least
one half of them was led there by curiosity—
a natural curiosity about his own interests
and the situation of the country. Such • state
of the public mind called for the particular
consideration of their Lordships fur an indulgent
attention to the distresses of the people., which was
imperiously required, if not by humanity, which
was no stranger to their Lordships' bosoms, at least
by a principle of policy. For if by ally omission
upon their parts, by any disregard to the calamities
which oppress the tuition, or an apparent waist of
feeling, the middle chose, were induced to think
that they were likely to gain any thing by experi-
mental reform, not all the levies of soldiers, nut
all the terrors of law, could save the country from
the dreadful effects of such an impreesiota. They
would And the aria that really supported the
constitution wa• withered, and that those frehogs
of respect mid esteem nit which the political
institutions of the country hail hitherto rested,
and which had arisen from content and enjoy-
ment. were stink under the kiting i'tflueoce
a apathy or couteimpts•-•( heir, hehe.)—

The Noble Marquis, alluding then to the tweets-
sny of investigating the causes of the existiag
distress, remarked that there west- three points of
view in which the question of applyiug a remedy
'night be considered. One had Farris suggested, but
in which he himself !dared no great cessfidence.
whirh was a Parliamentary grant for the temporary
subsistence of those who now laboured tinder die-
tress. Fir, however. was fur from thinking the
suggestion altogether undeserving of attention, rl.
tl 411 It was a principle of relisf which should be
adopted with caution, re it tills drew capital front
note part of the country to assist mother quarter.
But if, with the Noble Lords opposite, lie conceived
this? the present distress we. Duly temporary. lie
weislil he disposed to look to it with inure atten-
tion. The two other views he proposed for their
consideration were of a
which he thought were well worthy the titivation
Government and of the House. Asesomisig for • e.
ment, what believer he was not diets.-eel to concede,
that it was impossible to make any reduction in the
amount of our rxruitiltire, yet when they coosider-
eil the means of raising the revenue, lie thought
much advantsge unght he derived from looking to
the mode of its distribution, and carefully ascer-
taining what saiviegs might there be effected. He
could not here enter into prrticulars,which, however,
nn a proper inquiry, he wools, be prepared to do.
The other point to which he begged to call their
attention was. the possibility of reducing certain
duties, which. from their present amount. diminish-
ed the consumption of the article, and which, if
lightened, would probably, by permitting the con-
sumption to be increased. not affect the revenue.
The only article he should now particularize
was tea, one that had become so universal in its
use as to be considered an article of primary necer-
say. The amount of the duties. lie was credibly
informed, had caused a considerable diminution in
the consumption of tee, and if to this were added
the consideration, that from Ainetice tea was
smuggled to this country to the extent of a million
and a half of pounds annually, the reduction of
the duty, at least on the low-priced teas, would pro-
bably at the same timedimiuish the crime of smug-
glisig. mid increase the consumption of the article.
The Noble Marquis then urged the neceseity of
instituting • careful review of the commercial
system of the country. It was well know'?,
that to the present moment Ministers had not
concluded any treaty of commerce with any
of the nations composing the Continent of Eu-
rope ; but edmittisig the difficulty of this,
much good might be divvied by so simplifi.
ing our own system, as to conduce to the exports.
tiou of much of our manufactures. the this point
he should allude only to the ease of Norway, the
timber trade of which we had sacrificed for what
appeared to him an inferior consideration, namely,
the promotion of the timber trade of Canada. Far
One object we had deprived ourselves of a cheap
instrument for building. mid our merchants of all
the advantages to be derived from exporting our
manufactures to that country. Not to this point,
however, alone, or to any other isolated considera-
tion. did he wish to direct their attention—what he
desired to induce them to adopt was, the general
principle of an extensive review of the entire system.
With this subject was connected the advantages of
endeavouring by our countenance to consolidate
those governments in South America which must
eventually be cuissolidatet, and to establish cont.
weren't relations with that part of the world,
which must eventually prove the best market
for British produce.—( Hear, hear, hear.)—An.
other duty incumbent un the House was, to
inquire into the administration of the laws, with
respect to public meetings and seditious publics-
tics's*. On these points they were bound to its-
quire how far the execution of the laws had been
just, and uniform, and efficacious. He said " uni-
form," because nothing was wore calculated to
produce an unfavourrble impression upon the pub-
lic mind, than any thing like capriciousuess in the
administration of justice. With respect to the law
of libel and sedition, he had to inquire from what
circurnstauces it liappessed that sedition was suffered
to stalk abroad, without any attempt being made
to arrest its progress. Libels hail now for more
than two years been constantly publishing, which
lie had no doubt would be condemned by any
twelve men in the country ; they had now
grown into • system, which he feared had been too
efficacious with many in subverting the respect they
once entertained fur the institutions of the country,
which openly assailed the sacrednere of property,
and even held up the illustrious individual at the
:seed of the empire to a nation. The Noble
Merqui. read two extracts from a publication, en-
titled The Medusa, calling upon the people to
punish the House of Brunswick, as they had before
punished the House of Stuart end requiring them
to deprive the Nobility and Gentry of the country
of their property.-..[Here Lord Liverpool took
note of the dote of title public-at' .]—Although in
ordinary times it was no doubt the beet policy to
suffer occasioual errors to pass interstices!, yet when
such libelloine puldicatinor assumed the appearance

happened that the Lisa Officers of the Crown per.

August, in consequence of a placard from the
gistrates forbidding the meeting, they had a right to
presume, from the absence of such notice, that the
meeting of the 16th was perfectly legs!, and that
they assembled under the protection of the law*.
The Noble Marquis again ad►erted to the necessity
of inquiry, and urged that such proceechags were
not new in that (louse. In 1717, a riot occur-

count, on a former evening, with • great 'hew
of courage, declared his determination to make
no concessions. It would be right to under..
stand the meaning of this term. if the Noble
Lord meant that he would, permit no vague desires.
Ito wandering thoughts, no depraved ambition to
effect the integrity of the Constitution, he should
agree with him that nu such concessions should be
made. but he trusted that Parliament would, at
all times be disposed to concede to the people the
full blessings of the Constitution, among the first of
o hick Was the benefit of a full inquiry by Parlis-
'tient into the grievances or distresses that nosy
af-
feet the country.—(Hear, hear.)
The Noble Marquis concluded by moving—
" That a Select Comiailtee be appointed to itiqu:re into
the state of the Nation. More particularly into the casises
of the present distress and discontent that prevail is the Ala-
nalactaring Districts; and also Min the adaisinistratium of
the Laws affectiu; Public Merlins."
The motion being read—
Marquis WELLEaLEY said. the Noble Lord
who bad just sat down had told them, ill •
spirit of eloquence and manliness, that violence
Inuit be subdued by force—sedition by law. Coul,l
it be denied that sedition had existed ? Ilad it
been put down by law ? The question was, when
at the time country was in distress, in what way
they were to put closet' violence and suppress Bed,.
tion ? Why had they assembled ?—ohy was their
vitriol& called to this business ? Parliament was
called for its own preservation, and also to consider
how they should execute that first and important duty
ttf maintaining the Constitution from violence. The
Noble Lord had said, that the cause of the discon-
tent was the distress of the country ; and t'et it
could llot be denied that many persons had wickedly
taken advantage of that distress, and that • well-
()roomed mob was seeking to subvert the Govern-
ment—whose intention was to effect such • &straw-
lion oldie Constitution as should give them vote
by ballot. Annual Parliaments, and Universal Suff-
rage. Had their intention been disguised, or had
there not hero a distinct and positive avowal of it ?
They all said that nothing short of that projet t would
redress their grievances, aqui that until that scheme
was accomplished, their grievances would remain
unredresoed. It was impossitsii.prit to trace the
conuexion of all parts of the eyatem—all the parts
of it were compact—all the persons boncerned in it
were closely eoisticted—all of them were closely
united in the value metiers! plan. and all ticir
poses were to be tarried into effect by one and the

nottipig stone than a wild and visionary scheme. It
might perhaps be necessary to inquire into the whole
stone of the country, and to *examine the distresses
in ; but the question was, was that to take prece-
dence of plans devised to meet the immediate dan-
ger ? The Noble Lord had also stalest, thAt *n-
ether spurt of his plan was, to take into consideration
tt:e administration of justice. But was there any
reason to consider that, before they took into their
c•oliederation the specific measures proposed to meet
the immediate evil itself, which he thought ought
to have the precedence in their consideration ? He
Lail no objection to such au examination,, pro-
vided it came in its proper time. 'rile Noble
Lord had expressed it wish that conciliatory
tneasuree should be adopted to appease the
feelings of the people ; he (Marquis Wel-
lesley) hoped their Lordships would pause be-
lore they took any other steps than those
to remedy the evils which were before them.—
The argument of the Radicals was, that the
house of Commons was the Very basis of their
cuisfortunee, and they met at Manchester to con.
eider how they could destroy the House of Com.
moor, which they considered as a public nuisance.
He had tor doubt that great distress existed in
roosts! of tie:: totenufacturing districts, but that die-
trete had certainly been very much exaggerated.
If the Noble Lord could apply wry of Ins talent
to the improvement of the Bills under the consider-
ation of that House, let hint do so; yet let them
vet eater into any preen Mire steps, in order that the present
mutton might take precedence of other Bills. Those meet•
Wig which hail been held throughout the country. were not
held fur the pin p.m of delivering themselves from the dis-
t, i ssed state of the country, ur to take into consideration
the hest omens of doing so, but to consider what physical
free they could get, to carry their wild and visionary
schemes into effect—they were tricks and devices practised
en the distresses of the people of Fagland, tending to all-
'rear thetu from their Sovereign. British liberty rested on
t'.e fotindation of order, law, and religion. Under the cif-
commences he had asenitoned, he could not concede to his
N.itile Friend ersit this motion should take precedence of the
ot'.er Bills title wider their consideration.
. '1
-OH Ensause said, he thought that that House should
sheer the people they were attentive to their interests and
Phil ties, and that they were resolved to support them. If
v:ey had materials to pass the Bills under the consideration
of the House, let them pain them, and then his Noble
elead's stood without say uhjectiun. It bad been
elated by the Noble Marquis, that there was a conspiracy to
twbvtrt the Constitutiou of this country; but he would
a..k, was the present state of the country any thing like what
:1 less in the year 1794? At that time the House entered
i..tu a Secret Committee, and also entered into the discus.
siou on the state of the cavalry. A great deal bad Leen

that no oleo could doubt the bustard right of the
peupte to meet for the permute of discussing their grievances,
and taking into consideration the beat means of obtaining
