AT a MEETING of REFORMERS, held at
the British Coffee-house, Cockspur-street, Charing-cross,
on Thursday, the 4th day of January, 1838.
CHARLES AUGUSTUS TULK, Esq., in the Chair.
The Reformers assembled at this Meeting have witnessed with
regret the existence of a confederacy, having for its object the col-
lection of a Fund, designed to frustrate the exertions of the Liberal
Constituencies at the late General Election. This confederacy is
only the continuation of a system avowed by the Tory Press, and
acted upon by the Tory party daring the late Elections, of contest-
ing seats, not with any expectation of success, but with the single
object of involving the popular party in enormous expense, and
laying the grounds for future vexatious petitions.
The defence of the seats thus vexatiously assailed, to be effective,
will necessarily require a great expenditure. This Meeting, with-
out hesitation, and confident in the success of the appeal, calls upon
Britisk Reformers to aid in resisting the attempt to break down
popular Constituencies, and, by unconstitutional means, to gain a
majority in the Commons House of Parliament.
ltesolvod unanimously—That this Meeting, although deprecating
the priueiple of public subscriptions for prosecuting or defending
election petitions, especially the Spottiswoode Subscription in
England for wholesale attacks on the Irish returns, deems it abse-
intety necessary, in self-defence, and to uphold the Liberal Cause of
the United Kingdom, to institute an immediate and active counter
subscription, strictly and solely to maintain the seats of Liberal
Members of Parliament, now endangered by Tory Associations and
notorious public subscriptions.
2. That oa these grounds of necessary self-defence this meeting
urgently eells on the Reformers throughout the United Kingdom to
promote subscriptions.
E. That the following gentlemen constitute a Committee of Ma•
nagement, viz.—Charles Augustus Tulk, Esq., William Ewart,
Esq., J. E. Blunt, Esq., J. E. Hovenden, Esq., John Melville,
Esq.,; with power to add to their number.
5. That circulars be immediately sent to the Reformers and
Liberal Associations throughout the United Kingdom, requesting
their zealous co-operation in the object of this meeting.
5. That subscriptions be received at Messrs. Prescott, Grote,
and Co., 62, Threadneedle-street ; Messrs. Ladbroke, Kingscote,
and Co., Bank-buildings ; Messrs. Cocks and Biddulph, 43,
Charing .crese ; Messrs. Bouverie and Co.s 11, Haymarket.
