ST. LUKE'S, MIDDLESEX.

Yesterday evening a rheetkng of the inhabitants of the parish of
St. Luke, Middlesex, was held at the Workhouse, in the City-
road, for the purpose of adopting such measures as will tend to
strengthen the hands of the Government of the country in their
laudable and ptaiseworthy endeavours to reform the present cor.
rupt state of the representation of e people.
Mr. WALKER, the senior Church Warden, in the chair.
'The CHAIRMAN congratulated the meeting on the present
promising state of the affhirs of the country.
Mr. GAM G role to pri,p6SC the first resolution. The subject
which had called them together *as one that had excited greater
interest throughout the country than any thing that had occurred
since the glorious Revolution of le.BB.—(Hear.)
Mr. SMITH seconded the motion.
Mr. .P., being loudly called for, came forward and
althoughsaid that iLKSiM.P.,
he had terfiiinated his official intercourse
with that parish, yet he felt it his duty on the present occasion to
congratulate them on the proposition by Ministers of a plan of
Reform that far exceeded the most sanguine expectations of the
people. He could not describe to them the feelings with which
the plan of Lord Jahn Russell was received by the House of
Commons. The delight displayed on one side of the House, and
the confusion on the other. No one, not even the most san-
guine, expected that any Ministry would be bold enough tomake
such an attack on that Hydra-headed monster—corruption. Mr.
W. sat down amid loud cheers.
Several other gentlemen addressed the meeting at consider-
able length, after which a variety of resolutions in favour of the
plan of Reform proposed by his Majesty's Ministers, and a peti-
tion founded on them to both Houses of Parliament, and also to
his Majesty, was agreed to.—The meeting then adjourned.

CHRIST CHURCH, SURREY.
This morning a very numerous meeting of the inhabitants of
the parish of Christ Church, was held in the Riding School,
Brunswick-street, Blackfriars, for the purpose of addressing his
Majesty on the introduction of the plan of Reform by Ministers,
and for petitioning both Houses of Parliament to pass the same
into a law.
Mr. BOWDITCH, senior Churchwarden, took the Chair, and
stated the object of the meeting.
Mr. HAW ES rose to propose' the first resolution. He most
cordially supported the plan of Refor.n brought forward by Mi-
nisters, which he considered was a measure of justice to the
country. The opponents of the measure entertained the opinion
that the plan, if carried, would be followed by dangerous conse-
quences to the country. He thought that as
.the measure was a
just and good one, the people should support it, leaving the con-
sequences to Divine Providence.—(Hear.) He, however, thought
that the measure would give satisfaction to the people, and sta-
bility to the institutions of the country—(Cheers.) It was to
eulogize the Ministers for their exertions in the cause of the
people, and thought it a high reward to the talents of Earl Grey

that he should have to bring forward, as a Cabinet measure, his
favourite plan of Reform.—(Cheers.) He concluded by moving
a resolution approving of the plan of Reform.
Mr: MERCER seconded the resolution, and attributed all the
Oils of the country to the boroughmongering system. The
people had now a King who wished only to live in the hearts of
his subjects, and who was doing all in his power to promote their
ixterests. The resolution was carried with loud cheers.
Mr: PAUL moved the second resolution, which was carried
with cheers.
Mr. BOWDLER proposed the third resolution, to the effect
that Parliament should be petitioned to carry the measure into
effect as
