The requisition for the meeting had entirely passed it by.
They could not call the Duke of Sussex before them and
examine him. as he would instantly say, " I have resigned
my office, and that is all that is necessary for me to say upon
the subject," and the other officers might give the same
answer. It became, therefore, the present meeting to
probe as far as it could the causes that had been productive
of the resignation of the late officers of the Institution.—
(Cheers.) As to the resolution, he believed that it had
been proposed, not on account of anything that had been
stated by the press—not on account of any pamphlets that
had been written upcn the subject—but because it was
found that the sound good sense of the public had got to
the bottom of the thing.—(Cheers, and loud cries of
" No, no.")
The Loan MAYOR, in endeavouring to preserve order,
said, that he was extremely sorry that !the olive branch
that had been proffered had not been accepted. He was
in hopes the duty he had taken upon himself would have
been a light one, but he was afraid, from the feeling dis-
played, it was likely to be the reverse.
Mr.`HEWETT then proceeded. No one wished for peace
more than himself ; but who, he would ask, had first en-
tered upon the public arena of discussion ? The medical
officers themselves —(Cheers.) It then became the duty
tif the Committee, who had given their valuable time, and
had proved themselves the best supporters of the Institu-
tion, to protect themselves, and now all that they had done
vas to be met by a side motion, avowedly put forward on
the ground of charity, and by which they were to be left
in the lurch.—(Cheers.) He asserted, that the present
meeting, and the resolution proposed, had been got up by
the medical officers themselves.
A GoNERNOR, with some warmth—l say it is not.

Mr. HEwErr asserted that it was, and that the requisition
was taken to the Secretary by one of the medical officers him-
self. More than that, he would assert that the resolution was
got up by the medical officers, in order to excite the compas-
sion of the Governors for their pitiable situation.—(Cheers and
great disapprobation.)
Dr. RUSSELL and the Rev. Mr. PRlTcuErr indignantly re-
pelled the assertion that they had brought forward the resolu.
tion as the agents of the medical officers.—(Cheers.)
Mr. HEWETT said that the object of his amendment was
not clamour but peace, by placing medical officers in the in.
stitution who would attend the Board and the reasonable sug-
gestions of the committee.—(Cheers.) He thought the peace
and unanimity of the meeting would be best consulted by
allowing the medical officers to depart in peace—(Loud
cheers and laughter)—carrying away with them those ho-
nours which their medical brethren had showered upon
them.—(Continued cheering.) He trusted medicine fees would
as quickly shower upon them, but he protested against their
being allowed to come back to the Dispensary, or attending
again the poor they had deserted. Mr. Hewett then con-
cluded by moving as an amendment, that it was inexpedient to
consider the cause of the resignation of the late officers of the
institution.

Mr. ANDERTON rose to second the amendment, and was left
speaking.
