At the meeting of the Council this otorniiitr several subscrip-
tions were handed in from J. Wi7cble, Eisi. of Berkshire, no/. ;

Parkes had received 50/. from a person of distinction, and would
forward it to the Council immediately atter his return from
London.

Several Deputations from distant Unions were in the room.
Mr. MUNTZ was called to the Chair, until the arrival of Mr.
Attwood. lie urged the people to get gel,:
A report was brought up from the Committee appointed to
draw up " A solemn league and covenant," which after sooso

and covenant never to rest, but ever to labour 'ay all ionesatitue-
tional means to secure Reform and prosperity.
Mr. Scholefield and Mr. Green who have been to London on a
deputation from the Union, were present at the Council, and
were received with loud cheers. It appears that the Duke Or
Wellington -has refused to let the Address of the Council Ls
presented to his Majesty. 'Dais announcement was received
with three groans for hie Grace. In the early part of the day
Colodtil Bryan, of Jenkinitown, stopped at the Swan lintel, in
Birmingham, and kept in durance rile, because he was taken
for the Duke of Wellington. An explanation fleeing been givers
to the crowd, the Gallant Colonel was set at liberty.
Mr. SCHOLEFIELD spoke in gratifying terms of the recep-
tion with which the deputation had been reeeiveti in London, at
the Westminster Meeting, by the Common Council, by the Lord
Mayor, and in the House of Commons itself —Sheers ) They
had worn their union ribbon wherever they went, amitold every
person who inquired *hat it was ; that they had assumed it as a
badge of their determination to be free.—(terud cheers.' Mr. S.
also described an interview with Lord Grey, and he said it would
have drawn tears from any men who saw the kindness with
they were received by that fe.triotic Nobleman. Mr. S. declare,'
that Earl Grey had been sacrificed solely to the vile treechery of
his wily foes. He had learned from the highest authorities that
no man had so much the confidence of all patties as Earl Grey.
They had recommended thet the country should mienimously
call for his restoration to office, and that no taxes should be pad
to —. [Here three enthusiastic cheers were given for Earl
Grey, followed by three hearty groans foe his reputed successor
Mr. Scholefiekl conjured the members of the Union to be on
their guard; the Castlereagh system was again to be acted uoon.
Spies were then amonst them. He learned this whilst in Lon.
don from persons of high station, upon wheel he could rely. He
believed that on their return from London lie WIP accompanied
by one in the mail —(Three groans were given for the spy.)
The Rev. Mr. M'DONNELL wins come to present from two
hundred Irishmen who had joined the tioion an Address to the
Council. Sic (Mr. M.D.) was sorry that he was under the ne-
cessity of leaving town for a fortnight.
The CHAIRMAN requested him lilt to go, and the people
VhexclaimedeßevheGentmheanatn atgo. length obtained ler:ve of abseaee,
pledging himself to return as quickly as possible. They might
rely upon his being at his lost in the hour of Jaeger, if it should
arnve.—(Cheers.)
The deputation spoke in terms of the highest eulogy of tha
ception which was give to them by Mr. O'Connell, for whom
three cheers were immediately given.
Upon the whole, all is quiet ; but the excitement is hourly in.
creasing. The streets are filled with groups of men, women.
and children, who talk loudly of " arms," but, under the con.
duct of the Council, which has the full confidence of the people,
all will be right. The people have already commenced a run on
the savings' Yank ; the drafts upon which were greater last week
by 6001. than at any period during the panic. In all probabiity we
shall have another Meeting of the Town on Tuesday or Wednes-
day. The placard " taxes paid here," are exhibited in many
windows. To give in a few words a correct estimating putillc
feeling—" it seems at all hazards not to tolerate the change whicls
is reported to have taken place in the Administration.
