Friday.' Common Hall was held pursuant to a Requisition
for the purpose of considering the dletresed state of the.
Country, and of petitimeng tlw Prince lbegent for the speedy
assembling Parliament. lii order that a reinedv might. he
adopted i and especially to pray for a Reform in the Commons
House of Parliament.
the Lord Niuyor raid, lie tend received a Requisition, de-
siring him to call a Cl/Mlllllll Hall before the Suite of Novenis
ber : consistently with ilia other publiethaties, lie could not do
sa ; but he had convened the Hall OM the tastiest possible
day. He now trusted they would give every gentle/non who
'otiose to deliver his st ntiments a fair end eandid hearing.
M... Mitchell then Caine forward title object of the Meeting
having been stated by the CI ,Mlll,lll Crier) and said, the task
had devolved on him of esplaiiting the object i'Lll whien they
had been celled together. ',heir object was to obtain a
Reform in the Representation of the People ; they wanted
no violence of any kind; they wanted a temperate, rational
Reform ; such a Reform as the Constitution warranted them
in demanding ; that would afters! immediate relief to the
distresses of the country. by lopptrig off the exorbitant
taxation and unmerited sinecure places and pensions. He
treated they would ail unite in considering Reform as the
tally remedy fur the multiplied evils under which the country
laboured. Let them be Min and temperate, and they Would
obtain the object which alone world operate as a core for
their. evil.. For this purpose, be e hired it w'te possible that
they could'eollect the sense of every iudividual there, by his
.deliyering his sentiments on this important question. In
every tiling that ennobled the human mind, this country stood
unrivalled ; nod Mould we nut have some of thespirit of our •
ancestries remaining? if it were possible for the public men
sew in existence to expire in ten miuutes, another race would
instaotlyspring cep, capable of carrying mu the great wort .
The venal press wanted titled men alone to bring about Re -
turns; but all that were the boast of science and virtue /prying
from the democracy. The progress of public opinion was so
. rapid, that the Borough-mongers could not stem the torrent ;
and all they (the Reformers) had to do, was to caution, theta-
selves against violence; to go to Wioalsor, if necessary, with
' Magna Chart* In their hands; not with a 'word in one hand
int a torch in the other. He world be the last man to
grudge the House of Brunswick all that fairly belonged 'to
them. He would render unto Caesar that which was Clew's;
but he would not pay Caesar that which was not his duel
Much had been coal about the Spa-fields Meeting; for Ifs
part, hue could are nothing iii it to be blamed. In his opinion.
Ore violence committed that day was done by some veinal
wretches, hired for the purpose. The annual expendithre
was ?a millions, which we could bear no longer ; and nothing
would cure the evil but Reform in Parliament; for the Ver-
rough-mongers had lan feeling, and " were surely dead' in
trespasses and sin." He then moved a string of Resolutions,
and a Petition to the' Regent, praying for Retinue, ..sic. If
any ameudinents were moved to these, his Resolutions, he had
no hesitation in staying, the man who would do so, was ',au
enemy to his country. •
Mr. Hunt (of Spa fields notoriety) came forward to second the
Resolutions. if after the abuse he had lately received from the
venal Preas, he had appeared before them without emotion, he
should be without feeling. lie congratulated Mein on seeing fresh
men come forward In the cause; for the mover had recently taken
up his Livery to be able to address them. Nor his own pait,. how-
...met much he had been vilified, he had "brays used language. de-

where was the man that aid-not us atm wiy csy them? ','his was
resisted by the Roroughtnongert, who, he believed. would 'either
drive the country to despair, and a bloouy revolution than Rine the

Would be told to-morrow in the hireling Papers (blab parties- were

his words if they were not misrcpres..riett. Ile only wetted' he Old

Alderman. for he had lived too hang te make one at a basing match

was to be a stripe of Resolution moved as an amendment; bemuse
t'io•e he had seconded were brought forward b new men; but he
holed the Livery would discriminate for themselves. .
Mr. Waithman then came forwent. He said, that althemeb from
the impaired state of his health, it would be impossible Art hhii to
address them in the manner he could have wiehed to here dune;
yet there were some points to which he wished to draw their atten-
tion. There was never a' period of greater distress or didictdtithan
the.present; and yet on a subject of suet magnitude and import-
ant* he had paver men io thidan attendance of that Livery. Go
questions ofno moment he had often seen the Hall crowded to execs.;
but there must have been sonic defect in the amid way adopted* for
making tits. notice public. With respect to the reflectiod dub the Re-
solutions were tab/ imposed because they had been brought forward
by new men, they hail always been glad to press new teen into the ser-
vice. A great deal Lad been said in other places of milk-and;
