'PUBLIC MEETING CONCERNING ILL-DISPOSED
WORK M EN.

Pursuant to requiiiti ttttt a highly numerous and
respectable meeting of the manufactuters and pro-
priettris of public works was hell yerterdae iu the
tall. The Loid Provost was called to the
Chair. In a brief but neat and appropriate speech
he opened the business of the meeting, and express.
.41 his sincere regret that such a treasonable confe-
deracy should have sullied the character of the
country. He described the important and difficult
duties which Magistrates had to perform at so cri.
tical s period. Ile was particularly happy to say
that she disaffected had been thwarted iii their marl
and criminal design!, and hoped the good effects
of the measures which► would hr proposed at this
meeting would prevent the like occurrence in

Air. KINSMAN FINIAY, in proposiog the llesn.
Juliana, remarked that the present treconitable coss-
-IPderacy had been in contemplstion lor a number
of years. This spot was the very centre of the
rebellion; and he stated, with the utmost confi-
dence, that an audacious attack was to have been
usi Glasgow on Wednesday, by a large armed
farce. On Tuesday. however, it was generally
known that the English had not co-operated; and
in coinequence of this diaappointinent the rising
on Wednesday was not o general as it would odor.
wise have been. if the attack on Glasgow had
been made with the numbers which were expected,
it would not have been defeated but with cousder-
able difficulty. Almost the whole 0111.10 of the
itopulation were concerned its these desperate de-
signs.. The youth between 15 and 21) years were
/tiniest all contaminated with the poinciples of
sedition and infidelity; and pains had been taken
to itietiFthese ruinous principles tutu the ls of
the very children. He feared it would be long
before the lower orders would be brought back to
that tranquillity and right feeliag which had beets
so long the boast of the country. Mr. Faiday then
objected to &morning paper. which bad imputed the
treasonable placard to some adherent of the Go-
verinuent. No Gentleman would believe this, when
itt was recollected that the address was posted up in
every town and village within 20 miles of where he
then was. lie trusted the meeting would see the
necessity of adopting such a lute of conduct as
would contribute materially to preserve the public
tranquillity iu future. He then proposed the Re-
soluttous.

Mr. °strain stated that he was not inclined to
go so far as Mr. Finlay had done in his description
of the working orders of the people. He had no
doubt that they were contaminated to a certain ex-
! trot ; but the sigricoltund populace were still on.

wan of property or talent was infected by these
opinions, ha hoped the influence of good advice und
example would soon produce a must btilu to ry re-
formation upon throe who had adopted unsound
%pews. fie concluded by irconding the Resolu-
tions.
Mr. EWING, in as eloquent speech which was
warmly applauded, said that he perfectly approved
of the measure proposed by his Hort. Friend (Mr.
