CORN-LAWS.

MEETING OF THE COUNTY OF CA RNARNON.
On Tuesday last, pursuant to a requisition to the fli4ll She-
riff of this County, signed by the leading landowners, a Public
Meeting was held at the Shire Hall, Carnarvon, convened, as
the requisition sta4ed, to take into consideration the propriety
of addressing both Houses of Parliament, praying that the
agricultural interest of the Kingdom may be adequately
protected."
The Hicu SHERIFF having been called to the Chair, pro-
ceeded to state the object of the Meeting, and then expressed
his readiness to hear any gentleman's sentiments in connexion
with the subject.
R. LLOYD EDWARDS, Esq. rose to propose a series of reso-
lutions the purport of which was to support the present system
of Corn-laws. The gentleman very briefly addressed the as-
sembly advocating the principles contained in the resolutions,
which he afterwards read.

RICHARD GARNONS, Esq. seconded the motion in support
of the resolutions.
General Sir LOVE PARRY JONES PARRY then rose
and, in a speech of considerable length and energy,
maintained that the existing state of the Corn-laws is detri-
mental to the best interests of the country, and with great em-
phasis spoke of the-fallacy of the doctrine that in case of a war
we should be indebted to foreign countries for a supply of grain.
After quotinc, the opinions of the late Lord Melville, Sir
Francis Burdett, and others, on the subject, in terms which
called forth loud and enthusiastic chmrs, the Gallant General
concluded with the declaration of his firm opinion that there
must be an equal protection for all classes, and that the pre-
sent Corn-laws have no such tendency.
W. LLOYD ROBERTS, Esq. next addressed the meeting, and
his rising was the signal for a simultaneous shout of applause.
He proceeded to show in what manner the present Corn-laws
affect the poorer classes, and after pointing out the necessity of
an unconditional repeal, read an amendment embodying the
above sentiments.

Mr. W. TITTERTON seconded the amendment.
At this stage of the proceedings a low, " and desultory dis-
cussion arose between the High Sheriff and several of the
requisitionists on the one side, and Mr. Lloyd Roberts on the
other, as to whether the numerous assemblage present were en-
tirely to take part in the proceedings by holding up their hands
in favour either :of the resolutions or of the' amendment.
Mr. Roberts contended that this was in strict conformity with
the wording of the requisition " a public meeting of the
county;" while the gentlemen on the other side maintained
that it was a meeting of the owners and occupiers of land only.
After much time had been spent in the debate, the Sheriff put
the amendment, upon which a forest of hands were held up,
amidst the most deafening cheers. The original resolutions
were then submitted to the meeting, and not more than twenty
hands appeared in their support.
The HIGH SHERIFF said that he must certainly confess the
fact, that as regards numbers there was an immense majority is
favour of the amendment, but he wit.; still of opinion that the
majority was not composed of persons qualified to vote on the
occasion.

Mr. LLOYD ROBERTS called upon the High Soeriff with
great solemnity to consider the nature and duties of his office,
and particularly directed his attention to the position in which
he was placed there ; he wished to know by what authority
did he scrutinize the votes of that Meeting ? Mr. Roberts t.ow
read the petition founded upon his amendment, but was inter-
rupted by
The HIGH SHERIFF, who rose and said, that for the sake
of the public peace, he begged to declare that the meeting was
dissolved.

It is but just to remark that, excepting the honest and sincere
applause given occasionally by the numerous auditory to the
different speakers, there was not the slightest symptom of a
breach of the peace. The announcement of the Sheriff was
received with hootings and groans, during which he left the
Hall, accompanied by most of the requisitionists.
W. TURNER, Jun. Esq, was then immediately called to the
chair, amidst the loudest acclamations.

The petitions to both Houses of Parliament were read and
agreed to unanimously, and the chair having been vacated,
Sir LOVE PARRY was voted into it.

A vote of thanks was moved to Mr. Turner for his manly
conduct, and after three cheers for Lord Newborough, Sir
Love Parry, Mr. Lloyd Roberts, and Mr. Turner, the meeting
quietly dispersed.
