Lord TEYN HAM then presented a petition to
which he begged to call the attention of the Noble
Marquis at the head of the Home Department. It
was from Newport, the scene of the late disturbances,
and was signed by 1,500 out of a population of 6,000,
and their Lordships would be surprised to hear that a
petition coming frtim that population implored the con-
sideration of their Lordships on behalf of men whose ob-
ject, it had been alleged, had men to burn their town and
endanger their lives. The petitioners were the most
respectable inhabitants of the town, and he was per-
suaded that their Lordships, the last resort for justice
in the country, would not allow to lie silently
on their table a petition of such interest and
and importance. He lamented deeply that it
had fallen to such humble hands as his. But he trusted
that after the Easter recess the Noble and Learned
Lard (Brougham) who had taken such interest in
these cases would be able to devote his attention to the
petition.
If not he (Lord Teynham) must endeavour
as well as he could to bring the subject before their
Lordships. He new moved that the petition be read at
length by the Clerk at the Table—(which having been
done)—
The Marquis of NORNIANBY iaid he doubted not
