AT a very numerous arid influential MEETING
of the DRUGGIST-I and CHEMISTS of LONDON held at
the flail of Commerce, Threadneedle-street. London, on Saturday,
the 15th day of August, 1846, pursuant to public advertisement,
- JAMES DREW, Esq., in the Chair;
It was moved by Mr. MOWER.% V. seconded by Mr. DAVY, and
resolved unanimously--
That this meeting, having maturely considered the Bill lately in-
trooluced into Parliam4-nt by her Majesty's Government, entitle.i "A
Sill to prevent the use of stills in the manufacture to spirit mixtures
by unlicensed persons, and to regulate the sale thereof, and of spirits
o' wine, by persons licensed under this Act ;" and having considered
the of the same, is of opinion that the proposed measure
is objectionable in the highest degree, and totally uncalled for by any
existing circumstances.
Moved by Mr. TONGE, seconded by Mr. Reran, and resolved

unanimously—
That the regulations proposed to be sanctioned by the Bill would,
if passed into a law, have the effect of rendering chemists and
druggists in general, both wholesale and retail. and a numerous class
of persons not maker* of spirit=. or otherwise at pr 'sent sul ject to
the jurisdiction of the Excise, but who rosy happen to employ Spirits
of wine in any of their processes, of deal i.i artic . into which spirit
enters as a principal ingredient, and who eamint amount to tewtr
than 30,000 persons at the least, amenable to the Excis regulations ;
and to the provisions of the Bill, which are in many respects highly
inquisitorial. vexations, arb!trary, and unjust, beyond the ordinary
laws and regulations of Excise.
Moved by Mr. WurrE, seconded by Mr. PRESTON, and reso ved

unanimously—
That such an extensio of the jurisAction of the excise is uncon-
stitutional ant must objectionable and obnoxious, and in the ~pinion
of this meeting, no existing state of circum- tames could justify the
intreAucihin into Parliatnent of a measure of so important and ob-
jection& le a character at any moment, and still less so at this late
perMci of the session.

Moved by Mr. WIRE, seconded by Mr. YATES, and resAved

unanimousty—

That this meeting plecuts itself to use Its utmost endeavours to
preveot the Rill i qu3st,o,i from being passed into a law
Moved by Mr. GIFFORD, seconded by Mr. Hat, and resolved

unanimously—
That these resolutions be Finished in the Times, the Morning
Post. the Morning Chronicle, the Morning Herald, the Daily News,

• unanimously -
