The National Register.
London, England, 1809-05-07 00:00:00

THE NATIONAL REGISTER;

by 11,05 voters. They had thus taken a view of num-
coin which he begged to divert their attention to the sub-
s influence. in the year 1793, it was stated that 71
and the Treasury returned 126 members. In tho

.lation of the Friends of the People, in
.1793,. no caleula-

could be taken of subsequent events, w hich have greatly
itered the state and extent of influence with respect to the re-
presentation in the House of Commons. Since 1793, 18 Peers
had been created, who have influence over 39 Members--(Lou!
cries of infamous Shameful !) besides which six Baronets
created since that time, have influence over 11 Members. Alto-
gether without the Baronets there were 206 Members influenced
by Peers and the Treasury, The English Peers made in the pre-
sent reign, returned 141 Members, and the Irish Peers made
tluriog the same period, upwards of 59. There were upwards
of 200 Members influenced by Peers created during the present
reign, besides the influence they have in counties; for he had
been only talking of boroughs. The counties of Bucks, York,
aad Cambridge, were now represented by the sons of Peers.
Ile hoped the people ‘v ould search to the bottom of the prin-
ciples of the Borough- Faction. The Borough-mongers in
the House of Commons, to the numbers of 91, re-
turned 139 Members. Altogether the number of Members re-
turned by corruption and influence was 306. There were also
17 boroughs, containing on the average 150 voters in each,
which 21 Peers and the Treasury commanded. The whole Bo-
rough-Faction, together with these 17 Boroughs, returned 327
English Members in the House of Commons. ( Shame ! Dis-
grace ! ) The English part of the House of Commons, con-
sisted of 513 Members, from which deducting 327, there walla
balance of 186, tolerably uninfluenced men. If therefore these
126 were deducted from the 3i7, there was a majority of 141
in favour of the Borough-Faction. The pensions anti places of
Aiembers actually sitting in the House of Commons atnounted to
178,0J0i.
The Resolutions were then put collectively, and adopted
without one dissenting voice.
Mr. Wardle; and may we ever possess an Advocate with
Ability to detect, and Courage to expose Corruption.
Mr. Wardle returned thanks in an appropriate speech.

Mr. Hare Townshend proposed a toast, which was
Tho gallant Cas:igator of our Foreign Foes (Lord Cochrane)
and may he meet with equal success, and greater support,,when
be joins the Patriotic Iland.against our Domestic Enemies.--
( Drank with three times three). •
Lord Cochrane, in a short speech, returned thanks for the
hono.:r which had been done him by a company so respectable,
expressed himself an entire friend to reform in all abuses, and
lamented that Ministers spent so much time in useless squabbles,
instead of attending to the real hu,iness of the nation. He was
a friend to Parliamentary Reform ; but had no very sanguine
prospect of success front any appeal to the House of Commons
upon that sOject.
The following Toasts were then given, and the Meeting con-
cluded without inu miption.
The Electors of Westminster, and may the splendour of their
example ani,oate trie Co:ittry to Imitation.
May we " ti :r d against the introduction of new and arbitrary
methods of 4ial," and " maintain our right to a real Trial by
Jury."
The Liberty of the Press, which is like "the air we breathe,"
—if" we have it rot we die." .
May illegal and arbitrary Nmisliments no longer pollute the
soil of Britain. •
