We understand that a renewed meeting of
Members of Parliament taking an interest in an inquiry
into the distress of the country, and tracing that distress to
the present state of the monetary system, was held at the
house of Sir CHARLES BURRELL, Bart., yesterday, to hear
the reply of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER to the
Deputation appointed at the last meeting. The meeting
was very numerously attended, and at which we learn
there were many new adherents favourable to its objects.
'llse two following resolutions, passed at the former meet-
ing,
and laid before Lord ALT HORP. were first read, viz. :
" Ist. That in entering upon the important subject of this
meeting, we disavow all party principle, or any intention to em-
barrass his Majesty's Government.
‘•2d. '1 hat it is desirable that a Parliamentary inquiry should
be instituted to investigate the distress which has so long pre-
vailed, and does still prevail, amongst the industrious and pro-
ductive classes, and which has affected and endangered every
species of property, with a view to ascertain whether it be not
connected with the present monetary system, and whether that
system do not admit of some sate amelioration."
The reply of Lord ALTHORP stated the hostility of
Government to any inquiry on the subject ; at which the
meeting seemed to be very much surprised, and elicited
from it strong expressions on the policy which Ministers
had proposed to pursue. The following resolutions were
immedi .tely drawn up, and adop•ed by the unship:lons
consent of the meeting:--
" 1. That this Meeting deeply deplore the view taken by his
Majesty's Ministers, of the possible injurious effect of examining
into the monetary system, as being greatly influential on the
general wide-spreading state of distress unhappily existing
amongst the manufacturing, the agricultural, and other indus-
trious classes.

2. That while this Meeting repeats its disavowal of all
party fueling, and of any disposition to embarrass his Majesty's
Government, it does not the less feel it to be its paramount
duty to persevere in the endeavour to ascertain the latent
cause 'f the existing distress, and the most just, rational, and
effectual remedy "
. . .

A Committee was then appoirred consisting of the De-
putation, to which was allied S;r HYDE PARKER, Bart.,
MATTHIAS ATTWOOD, Esq., and JAMES Lout, Esq., after
which the meeting separated.
