MIDDLESEX NIEETING.

Tistre was a Meeting, we +i d! not say a Radical
Meeting, though Major CARTWRICHT was the
{.chairman, at-the Mermaid, Hackney, yesterday.
Few persons attended of any degree of respecta-
bility, except ,Mr. BYYG. one of the Members for
the County,'J. CLARKE, Esq. of Enfield, and a Re-
verend Doctor, named DRAPER. The Major read
the Requisition which. had convened the Meeting,
and then briefly stated its purpose.—He was fol-
lowed by Mr. CLARKR, who expressed the same
sentiments, in almost the same words, which we
have detailtd over an,d over again, respecting
the Manchester transactions. Tn the course of
his speech be manifested his respect for the
Crown, by asking if it would be unconstitutional
to petition that the prerogative of the Crown

to appoi:Jt Justices or Aldgi3trates lboolil not be

continued." He concluded with proposing sere-
r►l Resolutions correspondent %vitt) the tenor of
his speech. Dr. DRAPER followed him, and de-
sc►ihed the scenes of Manchester in a style tha
was evidently d►rived from the Opposition Jonr-
nals, and among other declarations, not very Con-
sistent with the charity of a Christian Divine,

he affirmed, that '' Ministers had long been try-
ing, and had thought to put down the People
with one blow;" those Ministers who bad
saved the People and td►e Country from all the
dangers of French hostility, and had indeed es•en-
'ially contributed to the deliverance of Europe ! ! !
Mr. BYNG, after the Resolutions had been pro-
posed and seconded, came forward to declare his
sentiments. He was 'hissed, because he declared
that " he did not feel disposed to support sly
Resolution that might convey unqnalifieti censure
on the Magistrates of Manchester." Such was
the candour and justice of the Mee►ing ! ! He
objected to Annual Parliaments and Universal Sof-

fraje, as without a precedent in any Government.
His speech, on the whole, was as liberal as could
be expected from an,Opposition Member.
After the Major had put the various Resolu-
tions, and had received the tl►anks of the Meet-
, in;, a Mr. IVII,D arose " and demanded with an
irresistible voice to be heard as a freeholder of
Middlesex. He hoped while he was expressing of
his sentiments none of them would ofer to inter•
rapt hint. He had purchased a freehold in that
there county ; having witnessed the impropriety that
had taken place there along time,he was determin-
ed to make a stand apinst it, and to oppose
despotism. If Radical Reform was alloWed, it
would be the destruction of the nation, and he
trusted Mr. Byng would not allow it. He had seen
the Whigs in power, though he was not a Whig,
no, nor a Tory either, and he was sure if they were
in power now, that that there business at Man-
chester would not have taken place. The Whigs
went out on a principle, on the Catholic Bill. If
Radical Meetings took place they would injure
such respectable Meetings as that before therm"
A Mr. SATCHP.LL rose to reply to the last Gentle-
man, but the Meeting did not favour hint with a
hearing.

A vote of Thanks was proposed and carried
unanimously to NI r. Byng for his constitutional
conduct and constant attention to the wishes of
his constituents.

Mr. BYNG, in returning thanks for the honour
conferred on him, expressed :he high sense he
entertained of public estimation. It on a great
consti:utional question he should ever have the
misfortune to differ with his constituents, he
should resign the trust they had reposed in him.
He lamented before the fewness of numbers, but
he felt quite certain that had they been ever so nu.

rnerotts, they 1% otthl have conducted themselves it

the same way they had done—e way which it was
impossible to misrepresent. for though he bad
ditieted with them on many important points, yet
they had @hewn him the sane attention as if he
had neen fortunate enough to agree with them on
every topic. He felt grea►ly gratified by the ho-
nour they bad conferred on him.

Immediately after Mr. Byng sat down the Meet
ing was dissolved, without proceeding to any Ra
dical excesses.

NATIONAL CALAMITY.

When we first heard of the resignations 01
Messrs. WYVILL, GREENOUGH, and STAPYLTON,
we expressed our alarm at the loss which the Em-
pire had suffered On so divressing an occasion.—

lire perceive that our terrors have been contagious,
and have already excited apprehension in the
Sister Island, as may he seen in tie following Ex-
tract from The (Dublin) Correspondent, of the
9th inst. a Paper always alive to the interests of
toe Kingdom :

"The most unfortunate public occurrence that
we notice just now, and, indeed, one for which
we hardly know how to condole with the Empire
in suitable terms of grief, is, the awful relinquish-
ment of their Commissions by Niessrs. v%ill,
Greenough, and Stapyli on. Who are those ?r our
Readers will naturally ark.—'l'o this we answer—
we do not know ; except to say, that the two first
were Officers of Yeomanry, and the latter a country
Justice of the Peace ; but it cannot be less than a
very serious thing, we are sure, to see a poor little
Empire, which had, at one time in our memories,
fought so gloriously and so victoriously against
the world in arms—which bad, but x few short
years ago, headed all that ii ad virtue and courage
in the world, until the common Oppressor was
yoked to the earth—which has.diffused knowledge
and liberty over the face of the globe—t% hick corn-
mauds, at this moment, all the commerce and trade
that has recovered since she redeemed Europe—H

Every loyal man in tire Ki.vgdom pt
doubt not, read with great pleasnte the occ•ilio
of the Oxford Meeting, which they will ti'ld a
our Paper of this day. The sentiments expres'eto
by the several Speakers manifested that regarill.,
the Constitution, and that veneration fur
gion, which might be expected at one of fterillee
seats of Learning, not only in the British One;
but in the whole civilized world. It is needielo
for us to comment on the difference her's'e:e,
this Meeting, and those of the Radical
formers, nor should we insult the resPect::
able Persons who assembled at 0xf,411 if
were not to express our hopes that the
timent s earnestly and unanimously maintained. to

We regret that the NEwspaem, a most "`e I
body of People, should have involved thernseVge
in any legal difficulties by the circulation of °„
poisonous trash of such an ignorant, yet Pl
