MESSRS. COBDEN AND BRIGHT

AT MANCHESTER.

MANCHESTER, JAN. 29.—A great meeting was
held at the Free Trade Hall this evening, upon the
questions of financial and Parliamentary reform, and
Richard Cobden, E,g., M.P., and John Bright:E.g.,
M.P., .having been announced to take part in the
proceedings,: great anxiety was manifested by all
classes of the public to be present. It was soon found
that the 8,000 tickets at first ordered would by no
means meet the requirements of the case, and steps
were taken to reduce the number of seats in the budy
of the hall, so as to make standing room for an
extra number. The whole number of tickets was then
increased to 10,000, including 8,000 for the body of
the hall, and 2,000 for the galleries and platform. Of
these, no less than 6,000 were applied for on Monday
(the first day of issue), and tc-day the offices in
Newall's-buildings have been besieged by vast num-
bers of disappointed applicants, after the 4,000 tickets
forming the.balance of the issue had all been disposed
of. This being the principal market day many of the
merchants and manufacturers from the neighbouring
towns, who had come to do business on 'Change,
have been,tempted to remain in M*nchester, to be.
present at' the meeting ; and the consequence has
been, that' the assemblage was Gf a much
more influ4ntial kind even than these meetings
usually are:: It was understood that on this occasion
the Afinchester branch a the Freehold Land scheme
as to be launched, and this also tended to give
additional interest to the met ting. The Honourable
Members for tle West Riding of Yorkshire and of
the borough of Manchester were most enthusiasti-
cally greeted on entering the hall, and for some mo-
ments after they had taken their seats.

Mr. GEORGE WiLsc.).N, chairman of the association,
presided, and opened the business in a speech Out was
much applauded.
Mr. AIiCUIDALD PRENTICE then stood forward arc]
moved a resolution to the effect that an expression of
gratitude was due to the Members for the borough
for their past services, and requesting them to support
a reduction of the national expenditure to at least
the standard of 1835, and to the motion of Mr. Hume
for triennial Parliaments, vote by ballot, a redistribu-
tion of seats, and household suffrage.
Mr. ALEX. HENRY, M.P., seconded the motion,
and it was agreed to with much cheering.
Mr. COBDEN was then called upon, and presented
himself amidst renewed bursts of cheering. Toe
Hon. Member spoke for an hour and a half, and was
frequently interrupted by bursts of applause.
Mr. BRIGHT, who was also received in the same
enthusiastic manner as the Hon. Member for the
West Riding, addressed the meeting for ninety
minutes.

The proceedings closed at half-past ten o'clock.
Tables were then
Prepared with books upon them,to receive the names of persons desirous cf entering
the Freehold Land Society,
to qualify as 402, free-
holders.
