Mr. HIGLEY seconded the resolution with very great
pleasure. i

Mr. HAWKINS moved, " That in the opinion of No '4
meeting it is no less the duty than it is the interest of
every individual connected with the trade, to continuo ‘.
to make together, and lay unity and combined exertion
preserve a ready means of protection and defence avail-
able
whenever the trade is collectively or individually
meowed or attacked. He hoped the Beer-sellers would

FROM A CORRESPONDENT,)

DUMFRIES, OCTOBER 14.—A IlumerOUS and

highly respectable meeting of the inhabitants
of Dumfries and Maxwelltown was held in
Mr. Dawson's large sale room, for the pur-
pose of addressing her Majesty on their behalf, and
also sending the sufferers in the cause of liberty a
letter of condolence, emulation, and thanks. The
Chair was taken by Mr. Joselih Bryden.
Mr. CHARTERIS DAWSON, writer, proposed
the A ddress to her "Majesty. He stated that he
was gratified in observing so numerous an attend-
ance. The meeting could only have one feeling ac-
tuating them in such a cause. Nobly had Lovett,
Collins, and M'Dowall, come forward to advocate

the rights of humanity—the right of co-equal re-
presentation to every man. This was their motto,
and it was a just and noble one.—(Cheers.) Upon
' such a ground they could not fail, and having acted
in an honest and straightforward manner, they had
enlisted the feelings of the British nation in their
favour.—(Cheers.) If the _Home Secretary ad-
vised their release—which he had the right
and power to do—he would be respond-
ing to the feelings of tens of thou-
sands of just and honest-minded men. If he
denied this boon—denied this act of justice—
dictated by his conscience, and pandered to his in-
terest—he would tell him, that in the day of his
power he had denied their just claims, and he would
be remembered in the day of the people's nobility.
_(.Cheers.} We can conscientiously say, that
we have every reason to esteem those men, and in
the words of the Latin poet he would say, cxegi
Inonumentum7 eirer perennius—they have raised
a monument to their memory more lasting than
brass.—(Cheers.)
Mr. kVA RDROPE seconded the address, ably
showing the just tribute that was due to those per-
secuted men, the necessity that existed in calling
loudly for their liberation ; and he trusted that
every Association would demand their restoration
to their families.

The address was carried amid repeated cheers.
Mr. KERB proposed a letter of condolence to
those patriots, which was seconded by Mr. HAR-
RIS, and received the unanimous approbation of
the meeting.
