(Me. H.) was in the habit of acting, but also by those!
connected--though certainly not very closely connected,.
yet still connected—with his Majesty's Government, and
ibis alternative was for the Hon. Gentleman to resign.—
The Right Hon. Baronet said he would not, in speaking
upon this subject, enter upon party politic.; but this was
Mat Point to be decided—whether Ministers were not
hotted to consider whether, by the resignation of their

At the same time he admitted, that if they thought, by
retaining their places, they'could still preserve the public

history of the country, was there such a etange as since

intelligence so grating to their ears. His belief was, that

diving it, be was making a great sacrifice of popularity.
Ind honours.
Mr. HUME declared that the popularity of the King
was undiminished, and that it was onleeby the preseece of
me man—the Duke of Wellington—that the Government
was placed. in imminent danger. He .I:oped, since none of
the hereditary advisers of the Crown had come forward,
that the House of Commons would consider it their duty
to present an humble Addrois to his Mejesty, praying hie
Majesty to remove the Duke of Wellington and his other
evil Councillora—(Hear, and laughter)--and to allay the
irritation which universally prevailed. As for the people,
if they valued their rights as Englishmen, and wished to
iee the Duke of Wellington removed, they would behave
Orderly and quietly to-morrow.
The CI.LANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER agreed
with the lion. Member who spoke last, that if the unpo-
pularity of the Administration was so great, it was the
duty of that House to bring forward a motion for an
, humble Address to his Majesty to remove his Ministers.
For himself and for his colleagues,- he declared that he
did not wiali to remain a moment longer in effice than he
enjoyed the confidence of Parliament. If Parliament
abould, upon such un apPral, pronounce judgment against
him, lie should bow to it, not only with deference, hut
with satisfaction—(Luughter)—with satisfaction, because
there could be no greater satisfaction than that of having
a Ministry which should enjoy the confidence of Pailia-
ment.--(Cheers.) The Hon. Member for Westminster
had urged the Minister, to resign. lie knew not what
the feeling of the lion. Member and his friend% might be;
but be knew what would be the feeling of the country-
-CChem' Would not the lion. Gentleman himself be
one of the first to tax the Ministers with cowardice?—
(Cheers.) They were even now charged with cowardice,
because they forbore to accompany the King. And would
they, if they now resigned, not be told they had brought
the Monarch into circumstances of difficulty, and then
ehandoeed hire.—(Cheers)—and left the city exposed with•
oat means to repress the disorders which they had them-
selves anticipated, and from the approach of which they
Lad shrunk 2.--(Cheers.) He trusted the question sug-
gested by the Hoo.blember for Middlesex would be brought
forward-with the lean possible delay.—(Cheers.)
Sir JAMES GRAHAM—Sir, I was unwilling to pro.
long such a discussion as the present at a time if great
excitement, for I feel that more mischief may be done by
what is here said than by forbearing to express sentiments,
however warmly entertained by Hon. Gentlemen.—
(Hear, hear. )—But I have been led to depart from my in-
tention by the speech which has just been delivered by the
Right lion. Gentleman. lie intimated, that if the deci-
sion of the House of Commons was such as to declare that
in their opinion the. public set vice no longer required the
services of the Hon. Gentlemen on the opposite Bench, be
would receive that decision, not only with deference, but
satisfaction ; and, Sir, unless I greatly misunderstand the
feeling which has been produced by the Speech from the
Throne, and the declarations of the Noble Duke in another
place, and of the Right Hon. Baronet in that House, re-
specting the vital question of Parliamentary Reform, I am
not wrong in stating that, in consequence of this feeling,
the satisfaction will not be confined to the Bench opposite,
but will be reciprocated throughout this great country.--
( Hear, and laughter. )_The Right Hon. Gent. taunts us
with the call to bring forward this question in a whiten-
dal shape, and as speedily as possible. But, Sir, my ex-
perience tells me theta premature discussion of this ques-
tion, constituted as this House is at present, would be
exactly the mods which would most conduce to confirm
the power of that Administration we are anxious to see at
an end.—(Hear.)-1 therefore, hope, that this question
will not be agitated, but that we will take that course
which the routine of our order-book points out to us, and
that in eight or ten days, when the sense of the Com-
mons of England will be taken upon that cardinal and
vital question—whether the state of the representation
of the people is or is not to be considered by the Legis-
lature ?--all Hon. Membe.ra wishing well to their country
will came forward and support the motion•—( Hear, hear.)
The Duke of Wellington and the Right Hon. Baronet aiy
we cannot see our way—we will not sanction any innova-
tion! The short question, theu at issue between the Ade
ministration and the people of England is, if these is or is
not to be a reform in the system by which Members are
sent into that Assembly ? And when we reflect upon all
the circumstances—when we consider that the Speech de-
livered from the Throne, and the decision of the Ministers,
have produced the greetest change in the public senti-
ments, the ultimate result cannot be doubtful.—(Hear,
hear.) The Right Hon. Baronet, in his letter, says it is
dangerous to the public tranquillity that by night a Royal
procession should take place ; and yet about eight days ago
their Majesties visited the Theatres unaccompanied by any
extraordinary guard. Was there any confusion ? None.
The Royal Sovereign was received with the acclamations
of a loyal and attached people.—(Cheers.) Whet is it
then, Sir, which has changed this *enmity to alarm-66
loyalty to disaffection? Has any thing intervened, that
could possibly effect such a change? Yes, Sir, something
has intervened ; there has been a decleretion, a most un-
compromising declaration, by the Noble Duke at the head
of Lis Majesty's Government, that nothing shall tempt
him to admit a question, which, unless I not much de.
ceived on that very point, on which the Duke of Welling-
ton says, " I will concede nothing," is that on which the
peopl,—l mean not the mob, but the middle cheeses, eater-
Win an opinion, in conformity with which the Govern-
ment of this country must be conducted, if it is to be con.:
ducted in peace, and. in conformity with which the
Right Hon. Secretary himself hes declered that lie
will act, for that he would throw aside patronage, and
rely on pile opinion.—(Hear, hear.)—On that point I
hope we Khali shortly try time question of our strength, and
not op the other question to which the Right Hon. Gen-
tleman has alluded. On the (Illation of Parliamentary
Reform, I hope, Sir, that the decision of this House will
be seeeslily taken, and I look to that decision with some
degree of confidence; fur I repeat again that on ilea ques-
tion the wishes of the people are fixed. I repeat, too,
that it is now quite clear the question of Reform can he
no longer. evaded, and the declaration of the Nohle Duke
has astounded the people of England, and made him,
within a very short time, the must unpopular Minister
that ever swayed the destinies of this country.—( Hear.;
—While I out on this part of the subject I must be al.
lowed to state one thing which I feel most etiongly, arid
which I must express, and that is, that any act of per•
sonal violence would cast a stain--an indelible stain—
(Hear, hear)—.on the annals of thiLcountry that years ul
future glory never could wash away,. I hope and trust
that whatever feelings may exist towards the Noble Per-

•on as to his civil eolduct, it will be universally agreed
that the country ow►a him an eternal debt of gratitude for
his military bery keg, for Ins dauntless valour, and his
splendid Successes, that no subsequent events should be
allowed to place his person or his life for ore moment in

danger.7—(Cheers.)—l hope, too, that lac, thoul,
perbapo too fond of ruling alone, though averse from all
iiiyibion of power, will not be sti obstinate in, the pursuit of
his purpose as to place the peace and proprrty of this
Country in jeopardy, when the public opinion has been bo
decidedly pronounced agoimt the Adininietration of which
lie is the herd. 'she Hon. Baronet sat down amidst loud
and continued cheering. .„
An Ilex. Mauna addressed the House from under

the side Gallery, but owing to the departure of Alembers
from the House, and strangers front the Gallery, he was
quite inaudible.
Mr. SLANEY said, that he was happy this discussion
had taken place, fur in the 'vane announeethent of evils
that had been so profusely made within a short time, the
people knew not what to think, and were most anxious to
ascertain what was the amount of the danger which they
hail to appiebetul from'the letter of the Hon. Gentleman.
It appeared from the statements just made by the Hon. Al-
derman and the Hon. llaronet, that the communieation to
the city was made on the supposition that that which had
been previorsly made by the Lord Mayhr.elett was so 'Made
upon the authority of the highly respectable body which
he might be supposed to represent. An inquiry had, it
seemed, been made as to the authority of that c mom-
niCation, on the part of the Lord Mayor elect, and it was
now admitted that the letter of the Minister would have
been withdrawn if it had been found that that communi-
cation was erroneous. Now it vas evident that it was at
least the busy and unauthorised statement ofan
and a statement which the body of the Aldermen repo- '
diated.• Surely the Government ought not to have acted
on such a statement, and have advised such a letter as that
which hail been sent to the City. 'the Government, under
these cireuturtanees, must he taken to have acted in error
when they acted on the report of two persons who wero
supposed, but wrongly supposed, to have made an audio%
rised statement, when, in fact, their statement was made
without any authority whatever.
Sir C. FORBES observed that Hon. Gentlemen seemed
to speak with great freothim on the subject of the retire-
ment of the Duke of Wellington, but he thought it was a
question well worthy of consideration who should succeed
hint if be did go out. For himself, he knew no man so
tit to he at the head of the Government as the puke of
Wellington. It was very roily to say that the feeling of
the country was against hie Grace; but he could only say,
whatever might be the opinion in that House, that out of
it he never witnessed anything of the kind. He WAS sure
that the ire holly of the country gave their support to
cl
the Duke, and when the time came t 9 try that ""en he

(Sir C. Forbes) had no doubt that such would be found to
be the cue.
Mr. DENMAN wished at once to declare his full con-
eurreure with the Hon. Baronet, the Member for Cumber-
tind, in the expression of the extreme disgust he should
feel at any personal attack that might he made upon that
moat illustrious character the Duke of Wellington.—(Hear,
hear.) It was a mistake to suppose that an attempt of that
kind would be anything but revolting to the mind of the
great body of the people..-4Chelts.) Now that he wus
•In that subject, he would, if he might"descend from a
high to a humble subject, bear an equal testimony to the
equally great injustice that would he committed by any
meek on the men to whose care the police of the
metropolis was now confided.—(Hear, hear.) He filled
situation in which he had frequent opportunities of
observing their conduct, both as a body and as indivi-
duals, and he could truly say that he believed them
to be a very intelligent, a very ready, and a very re-
spectable body of men.—(Hear, hear.) Snow of them
had, indeed, been deeply disgraced, but their number was
very small ; and it should he recollected, too, that those
who had been thus questioned were brotriht to justice by
others of the same class with themselves..(lfear, hear.)
He was anxious particularly to bear testimony to the very
excellent conduct of those officers of the Police called the
Inspectors, whom in every instance lie had found to be
most intelligent, and attentive, and proper. In many in-
stances he had found them refusing bribes with firmness
Intl temper, and exerting a zeal and spirit in the di.eharge
of their duty that well deserved the thanks of every re-
spectable man.---(Hear, hear.) !Living said thus much
ith regard to this body of men, he must be allowed to
express his opinion of the unfortunate step taken on the
part of his Majesty's Ministers in advising his Majesty to
postpone that happy assemblage that might have taken
place, and to postpone it too on causes that he believed to
he wholly inadequate to justify such advice.—( Hear, hear.)
He could not but think, tha• when the lion. Alderman
who made the communication had waited on the Secretary
of State for that purpose, lie ought to have been quells
timed as to whether he was deputed by the whole bottYlo
communicate any intelligence to the Government on the
subject. lie must ray that in this the Ministers were to
blame, and not the respectable gentleman referred to, who
had been made a scape-goat on this occasion, because, not
being a Member of that House, be was not here anti could
not answer for himself. That ge Mennen had expressed a
certain opinion, on what ground they knew not —he had
heard rumours, and, no doubt, thought it his duty to com-
municate them to the Secretary of State; but the Govern.
ment had no right to act on that information without
questioning that respectable person, to ascertain the truth
of these tumours, and the danger which the Noble Duke
was likely to incur. On the other hand, he must any that
it appeared to him clear, from the universal expression of.
opinion, there was a general disposition to put down these
outrages, which it was plain had been got up by thieves
who were interested in creating confusion, iu order to pro-
fit by it at the expence of others, and especially it was clear.
that the late attacks upon the police were solely the work
of pickpockets, who were likely to be inveterate against
the police, in pro rtion as they discharged their duty with
fidelity.—(Hear.) It was impossible not to feel that by
this step of the Ministers a deep wound hail been given Sc
t! e tieing* of the country by that which hail taken place,
and its effect would he likely to be considerable upon the
conduct of other nations with respect to us, Whether in
matters of negociation or hostility. As this course of con-
duct did not proceed from his Majesty himself, but must
be considered the act of his Ministers alone, lie trusted that
his Majesty would name some other day, and that an early
day—(Hear)—in order to show that lie bad no reluctance
in throw himself on tt e feelings of his people, and in the
great City of his empire to meet his subjects, and expe-
rience from them the universal expression of their loyalty.
Sir R. PEEL observed that the Hon. and Learned
Gentleman, and, indeed, every one who had spoken,
seemed to assume that the communication, of the Lord
Mayor Elect was the only one on which the Government
had acted ; and the Hon. arid Learned Gentleman had said
the Ministers ought to have questioned that Mini. Gentle-
man on the authiiiity under which he made the communi-
cation. Ile (Sir R. Peel) had seen the Lord MaYor
Elect, and if the information had b-en received from him
alone, Ministers might have paused before they had advised
such a letter ; but for the justification of that Hon.
Gentleman, he would stare, that the information thus given
was confirmed front at least twenty different quarters. IL,
would take that opporimity of remarking one other cir-
cumstance. He never had had—no one ever had omit-
lion to find fault with the conduct of the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman; 'hut he must say, that in the present
instance it was of a nature that he should never forget.
He di eply thanked tile Hon. and Learned Gentleman for
those sentiments he had expressed with respect to the Duke
of Wellington, and also with regard to some much
humbler individnels. These sentiments might draw down
on him a temporary unpopularity—(No, no,)—he said
only a temporary unpopularity—(No, n0,),--but be was
sure that they were in accordance with sentiments of
all respectable people.
SUPPLY.—SLAvEnV.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved
the Order of the Day for bringing up the Report of the
Committee of Supply,
Mr. BROUGHAM referred to the notice he had *l, , wen
respecting the question of Negro Slavery, and to the notice
on the same subject given by Sir George Murray. Ile
complained that the Right Hon. Secretary's notice was
likely to anticipate his motion ; but observed, that he was
determined to maintain the precedency to which his prio-
rity of notice entitled him, anti that be should certainly
move his question on Wednesday next.
Sir R. PEEL said, that his Right Hon. Friend was the
last person who would think of taking any unfair advan.
taco; and after some further conversation, it was agreed,
that the time at which the two motions could be discussed
should he settled to-morrow.
BRIBERY AND TREATING.
Mr. HUGHES was understood to ask, when the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer intended to bring inn his promised
Bill to amend the Bribery and Treating Acts. •
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
should be able to answer that question on Thursday next.
CIVIL LIST.
Lord ALTHORP said, that as the country was most
desirous of knowing what was the plan the Government
intended to pursue with respect to the Civil List, he sup
gested to the Hon. Member kw Westminster, the pro.
priety of postponing his motion, which now stood fixed
for Friday next.
