CNIORNINO POST.]

If the prept,et cri,t, In' one of peril to those by
whose flagrant ittjo,tit e it has been prepared, it
is one of honour and of glory to England, by
whose temperate firmness it is still arrested.
Never has the character of our country risen
higher than it stands at present, since the wise,
InAttty, and independent line of policy silently
porsur.,l by our Government for the last few
months has been distinctly avowed by Ministers
and proclaimed from the Throne. 41though some
of it had been revealed by the opposition which
it encountered from the obstinacy of other States,
and much of it had been anticipated by those
who did justice to the sincerity and liberal prin.
ciplt'S of the Administration, teo much had been
misrepresented by the injustice of open foes and
'the ignorance of pretended friends, to alto-w the
public to form a clear and decided opinion of its
exact nature, or of the extent to which it
was to be carried. Hence the deep anxiety
mingled with hope which prevailed through-
out the Empire, till the King's Speech
came like a ray from 'the East, and chased
avvay the night of suspicion and fear. Nevir
was a communication received with more unmix-
ed approbation and delight. Never was a more,
heart-cheering example of a complete union of
sentiments between the Sovereign, the Legisla-
ture, and the people, displayed in the history of
any country upon earth, where the people had a
legislature and a voice. In both Houses of Par-
liament, Party was for once silent ; nay, we
are unjust in saying so,---it was not silent, but
it ceased to be party ;—it mingled with the rest
of the nation, and bore spontaneous testimony to
the judicious, spirited, and independent conduct
of those whom it had hitherto regarded only
as rivals, and calumniated as enemies. This is a
moment of proud exultation for England. Noble
as was the line of policy adopted by her Minis-
ters, its wisdom, as well as its responsibility and
its glory, were theirs, until they had submitted it
to the juAlgtnent of the nation.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Pits b.
THE KING, ON Tilt PROSECUTION Or TILOMAS JERVIS,

!SQ., V. MORRISON.
Mr. GURNEY moved for a rule, calling on a Gentleman
named Morrison, to *thew cause why a criminal information
should not be tiled against him. lle made this application
on behalf of Mr. Jervis, one of his Majesty's Counsel,
whom Mr. Morrison had insulted by a gross and malevolent
libel, in return for a series of kindnesses. The wife of Mr.
Morrison was the niece of an old friend of the father of Mr.
Jervis,' who. awed. to him his success in life, and who, on his
death-bed, committed .his family to his dare. This lady had
been three. times married, and on two of those occasions Mr.
Jervis, who had taken an interest in the welfare of the faMily
whom his father had protected, became her trustee. Having
lived unhappily with her second husband, she separated
from him, and on that occasion also Mr. Jervis consented
.to act as trustee for her beriat. She had subsequently mar-
ried Mr.. Morrison, since which some dispute arose between
her and the executor of her second husband respecting a
sum of little more than. 46/. Mr. Morrison applied to Mr. Jer.
Via, who was entirely unconnected with the dispute, and who in-
formed them that nothing could be done to compel the payment
of this money, except by a bill in Chancery, which it was
scarcely worth while to exhibit for 80 trifling a aunt. Mr. Mor-
rison, however.; continued dissatisfledi and wrote to Mr. Jervis
repeatedly, until his letters were returned, when he sent
an open card, calling on Mr. Jervis to ?mike reparation for the
wrongs he had done, and threatening, in case of refusal, " to
peat the infamous transaction." Mr. Jervis had made an affi-
davit setting forth the history of his connexion with the fa.
roily, and showing, in the clearest manner, that he had never
afforded the slightest pretext for- the conduct adopted to.
wards him. _ -

The Court immediately granted 4, rule to show cause.

PREROGATIVE COURT. FEB. 5.

SIR EDWARD ANTRIDIWS, DART., AND BOOTH, AGAINST
SIR DIOLYNECX HYDE NEPEAN, DART.
In this case, a letter, bearing date 7th February, 1822, address-
ed by the late Sir Dian Nepean to his solicitor, J. Hutchinson,
Esq., of Lincoln's-inn, containing certain instructions for altera.
tions to be made in the disposition of the deceased's personal
PropertY, and for a new will to be prepared therefrom ac.
cordlngly, was propounded on the part of Sir M. 11. Ne.
.pean, as a codicil to the will of his late -father. By' the
terms of this letter, the personalty was-variously •disposed of,
and the several sums of 7,0001, 4,0001., 4,0801., and 4,000!. were
given to the younger children of Sir Evan; 1,200/. per annum
to his Lady, and vie whole of the landed estate was given to
his son, Sir Molyneux, party in this suit. A draught was
prepared by the solicitor, who was desired to expect further
instructions, which the late Baronet promised to forward,
after consulting with Lady Nepean, which the new will
was, of course, to await. In the mean time, Lady Nepean,
who was seriously ill at the time, daily grew worse, and at length
died. Public and private business (Sir . Evan having been
nominated High.Sheritf of Gloucestershire, and having a law.
suit on hand in respect of his own property) intervened to pre.
vent the deceased Baronet from giving his final instructions, and
his own death left them unexecuted. The executors named in
the will resist the letter set up as a codicil to that will. .
Sir J. Nrctiou., under these circumstances, decided, that
however it might be to be regretted, the presumption of law,
although it was strong in favour of intention in the present
case, could not avail against a regularly executed will, and the
lapse of time which had occurred between the intimation of the
deceased's intended instructions as contained in this letter, and
the period of his death.

The celebrated ,Mr. Was. WIIISTON was much
esteemed by Queen Caroline, consort of George 11. who ge-
nerously made him a Present of' 501. every year, from the time
she became Queen; which pension his late Majesty continued
to him so long as he lived. The Queen usually sent for him
once In the summer, whilst she was out of town, to spend
a day or two with her. At Richmond (it happened) she,
who loved his free conversation, asked hint what peo-
ple in general said of her. He replied, 'That they justly
esteemed her, as a 'Lady of great abilities, a patron
of learned men, and a kind friend of the poor.' But,l says
she,' no one is without faults—pray what are mine?' Mr.
Whiston begged to be excused speaking on that subject ; but
she insisting, he said, fler Majesty did not behave with pro.

' MIDDLESEX COUNTY MEETING.

REFORM IN PARLIAMENT.

Yesterday it` Meeting of the Freeholders of the
County of Middlcsei was held at the Mermaid Tavern, Hack-
ney, pursuant to a requisition, for the purpose of " applying
by petition to one or both Houses of Parliament for a Consti-
tutional Reform in the Representation of the People in the Le-
gislature, as a proper basis of all measures having for their ob..
jects Retrenchment in the' Public Expenditure, a Reduction of
Debt, Relief from the Pressure of all unnecessary Taxation, or
a Redress: of Grievances." , •

The Chair was taken at one o'clock by the Senior She#

,L II CAS).

There were present upon the hustings, besides the Sheriffs,
the two County .Members, Messrs. By:ng and Whitbread; Mr.
Peter Moore, M:P. ; Major Cartw ric,ht, Mr. Bowring, Dr.
Draper, &c..
:The room was quite filled with freeholders.
Mr. Sheriff Titomrrsow opened the business of the day by
requesting the attention of the meeting for a few moments be.
fore they entered upon the important question which they were
about to dismiss. The principal object for which they had met
was to consider the fitness of applying to Parliament for a con-
stitutional Reform Of the representation of thefpeople in the legis-
lature, He believed it was not denied by any one that great
distress prevailed amongst the agricultural interest; but un-
doubtedly there was a great: difference of opinion as to the best
mode of administering relief to them. It was contended that
thenrostefflcient step AO afford them relief was a Reform of
Parliament ; and that opinionhacl been opposed and supported
by some,of the moseible men of the day : upon such a ques-
tion, therefore., he trusted that the meeting would yield a
fair and impartial hearing 'to every man who should address
them, whatever might be his opinion upon it : by which con-
duct they would give the more weight and importance to the
proceedings of this metropolitan county. As for himself, his
opinion, and that of his worthy colleague, were, that relief
could be. afforded Without Reform in Parliament:—(Applause
and disapprobation) ; and his opinipn was c,oirfirtil by what
tank place in the House 'of Commons on Tuesday night, where
it was intimated, in, the Speech from the Throne, that the
British Government was opposed to the principles on which
Mutt infainoqsattaacwas- aboutio be made on Spain by the
'Prench people,—(Hear !)—an intimation that would be receiv-
ed with satisfaction and joy in every part of the country. It
was also stated on th part of the Ministera that a further re.
duction was tOntenililated in the 'taxation.--{Haar !)--.He was
obliged to the meeting for the manner in which they had re.
ceived his observations : He could assure them that it was
neither his or his colleague's wish to stifle the expression of the
people's feelings upon what they deemed their grievances; and
again thanking theni for the manner in which they had heard
him, he would trespass upon their attention no farther, but
call upon the Under-Sheriff to read the requisition.
The requiStion having been read accordingly,
Major CARTWRIGHT rose to address the meeting. The first
thing lie had to do was to read a letter which lie had received
from their friend Mr. Clarke, expressing his regret at being
unable, in consequence of a domestic calamity, to be present at
the meeting; 'and his full concurrence in the object for which
they, were assembled. The gallant Major then .related a cir-
cumstance that occurred at Genoa at one period, when that
city wAs groaning under oppressive taxation, •as we were. An
old miser died, and left an immense property to the state, on
condition that the country was relieved from her grievous taxes.
What did the Government do ? They abolished the tax, and
.put the money in their pockets. They then began again, and
in a short time the state was in the same oppressed condi-
tion as before.—(Hear!).-.The Major then contended at some
length, that the only effectual remedy for the evils with which
'the country was oppressed was to be derived from universal
suffrage, election by ballot, and annual Parliaments; and in
the course of his argument, gave some dissatisfaction to the
meeting by expressing his respect for Paine as an advocate for
liberty. He then went into the history of the state of the Bri-
tish Parliament down to the time of the Revolution : but this
part of his speech became so tedious to his auditors, that
they commenced coughing so loudly as to call for the interfe-
rence of Mr. Sheriff 'rhoroption to procure him a patient hear..
log. The Major then resumed his speech, and after some
further observations, concluded by moving resolutions advo-
cating the necessity of election by ballot and annual Par-
liaments.

The Rev. Mr. DRAPER seconded the resolutions. The clues.
tion of Reform was at all times important, but it was now more
so than ever, because it was better understood, better supported,
and had a better prospect of tuiccess. The Reverend Gentleman
then pointed out some of the abuses in the present state of re-
presentation, particularly the corrupt influence of Ministers,
which was admitted by them to be as notorious as the sun at
noonday; and which proved the truth of Sir Robert IValpoles
assertion, that " every man had his price." The baneful in..
flu enee of Ministers had extended even to himself Plr. Draper),
as it had to Sir Robert Wilson. He had been employed by the
Chaplain of the Ist Regiment of Horse Guards as his deputy ;
hut Colonel Lygon, the commanding officer, who thought that
all cletgynien were Tories, asked him if he was the Mr. Draper
who had spoken: at Hackney ? He said he was. The Colonel
'immediately wrote to the Chaplain to procure another
deputy. The Chaplain accordingly told him in an interview
which he had with him shortly afterwards, that he must find
another deputy, as he was too old. " I asked him," said the
Rev. Gentleman, in a voice of thunder, " was it that I was
not able to speak loud enough to be heard I"—(Great laugh,
ter.)—The Rev. Gentleman then stated that he lost the reader.
ship of Pentonville chapel, by the influence of Mr. Mellish
and the Middlesex r.fagistrates, because he had supported Mr.
IVhitbread's election to Parliament; and after enforcing his
reasons for the necessity of radical reform, he concluded by
seconding the Resolutions. -
Mr. BIGG said, that although he took a different view of
the mode of Reformthat was most eligible *M, that which
the Gentlemen who preceded, him, yet that. which.-he- was
about to propose was due which was tang, ible and specific,
although it was not annual Parliaments. lie combatted the
arguments used by the preceeding speakers in favour of
Universal Suffrage &c., and contended that the mode of
Reform which was descried in the Resolutions he was about

that every individual housekeeper paying assessed taxes should
to move as an amendment, was the most desirable,—namely,
have a vote in the election of a Representative in Parliament;
that the Parliament be of only three years' duration ; that Place.
men and Pensioners be not allowed to sit in the House of Com-
mons ; and that all corrupt borough! be disfranchised. He
was anxious. to get the sanction of the meeting to these resolu.
dons: 'Lord Stanhope had said in the House of Lords on 'rues.
day night,-that it was Only composed of splendid paupers ;"
and the House of Commons was sunk in such iniquity and
gross corruption, that unleis the people complained of their
grievances in firm and adequate language, they would obtain
no redress.. He concluded by moving, as an amendment, reso-
lutions, to the above effect ,
Mr.-11k1)6En seconded the amendment.
Mr. MALLET deprecated what might be called a kind of
paper warfare upon the mere mode of, proceeding, when they
were all agreed uporithe'objeet.. This disunion would no doubt
reach the ears of the corrupt Ministers; and the venal press
would inike the most of it. It would be adimued by every
body in that room that the country was pressed down by heavy
grievances, for which the only remedy was Reform, in order
that our complaints ,might be beard.in Parliament. One
argument used against Reform by the present !loose of Com-
mons was, they were willing to hear us if we expressed our
feelings. But how were these feelings to be expressed ? At
York, the other day, a petition was adopted and signed by
Lord Milton, that best friend to his country, and other respect.
able names; yet when that petition should come before Mini_
sters, they would say it was not the petition of the people of
the county of York, but the petition of Mr. iVoaler, because
that gentleman ably supported the cause of reform there.—
So the petition of the county of Hereford they would call the
petition of Mr. Cobbett. (‘' No, Norfolk you mean," from
the crowd.) And the Somersetiire petition they would call
Mr. Hunt's, because he so well defended the cause there ; al.
though he (Mr. Mallet) could hardly believe that it was the
same gentleman who delivered his sentiments at another meet.
ing in the same county a week afterwards. The (the meeting)
had split upon a mere trifle. Would they have annual or
triennial, Parliaments ? (Cries of " annual, ' and others of
" triennial.") He thought it mattered little which they asked
for. (A voice In the crow, " Ask fora great deal, and you
may get a little, perhaps." La,ughter.) 'or; his (Mr.
lets s) fart, he was for asking for annual parliaments ; but,
rather than that there should be any disuniondietween them, he I
would say, " (live us trienial parliaments, and let us try
them." (Applause.)
Mr. AI after being questioned as to his being a free.
holder of the county, and stating that he was, supported Ma.
jar Cartwright's resolutions.
Mr. GALLOWAY also opposed the amendment, as being cal.
eulated to blink the question ; and expressed his wish that it
should be withdrawn.
