REFORM MEETING.—On Monday last, a public meet-
ing of the inhabitants of Doncaster and its vicinity was
held at the Town-hall, " To declare their unabated anxiety
for the great measure of reform now before Parliament;
to thank the Lords for agreeing to the second reading ;
and to beseech them to pass the Bill unimpaired in its
principles." The attendance on this occasion was ex-
tremely numerous. The hall, indeed, was so densely
crowded that several persons were unable to gain admit-
tance. On the motion of Sir W. B. Cooke, seconded by
Sir F. L. Wood, the Mayor, George Holmes, Esq. was
called to the chair. After a number of admirable speeches,
resolutions were unanimou►ly agreed to, expressing un-
abated anxiety for the success of the Reform 8111, and [hat
is was expedient to petition the House of Lords to pass
the Bill in all its integrity. The petition, which received
nearly 2,000 signatures, was forwarded on the followlug
day to Lord Grey for presentation. The resolutions also
contained the expression of unshaken confidence in the
integrity of Ministers.—Leeds Mercury.

BANBURY, MAY 11.

The degree of excitement which has prevailed here
since the resignation of Ministers was known, has been
immense. The intelligence arrived at the time when the
inhabitants had commenced signing a loyal addr.-ss to the
King, with reference to the division on Monday night,
calling on his Majesty to create Peers; and after about
five hundred persons had signed it, the appalling intelli-
gence of the refusal of the King to create Peers, threw a
cloud at once over the operations of the Reformers.
Hundreds on Thursday refused to sign even an amended
Address, although it implored his Majesty nut only to
create Peers, but also to take hark Eat' Grey and his
colleagues as his advisers. The reason for refusing to
sign was—" Our call is not attended to—we are betrayed
—we will sign no more ;" with other declarations such as
we will not mention. Otters saw, however, the necessity
of still addressing the King, as the surest way et pro-
moting the Reform Bill ; and this they determined to do
in firm but constitutional language. About five hundred
signatures were attached in the course of the dty at the
Town Hall, and to-day some hundreds more are subscribed.
The Address will he forwarded to-night, and also one
from the inhabitants of Aliddleton-Cheney, and one front
Adderbory. A party of Mr. Catwright's Northampton-
shire Troop of Yeomanry, now on duty, came in their
regimentals and signed the Banbury Address.
