COITAION COUNCIL.

Yesterday the L, Court of
Cominon Council at coi-isetiner(e of
Redo sitiou he had recety‘ ii, to consider of the
avowal of an intention on the part of hi
,ty's Ministeis to .propose the further sii.pensiou.
of the Habeas Corpus, tani to adopt, such! men-
sureS, by petition or otherwise„ai -should be
thought necessary..„
Atter tie last proceedings had been, real!, and
sundry leases sealed, a petition as presented front
Robert Wilson, E-. 4. izen Spectaele•multer;
praying to be dischatged from his ti,odiraikin of
Shet-iii, itt cousequctice'di having lately sei red the
office of Sheriff tor the County of Lssex, and l!la
lather having already Raid a fine to be.exempt front
his nomination, which, after some ob.er‘ations
from .Sir Jas. SIM W, Mr. Alderman Ileygate,
S. Dixon, and Mr. Harvey,. Was not complied
with.

The Committee for General 'Purposes delivered
in a Repdrt, with an opinion of Counsel, in re-
spect of. the office of Bailiff of the Borough of
Southwark, which was read and, adjourned, end
ordered to be printed, and a copy sent to each
Member:
The Court ordered an account, of the fees paya-
ble upon licensing victuallers within the City to
be laid before them, .
J. Smith, Esq. 'Clerk and Treasurer to the
Commissioners 'of Lieutenancy, presented an ac-
count of the receipt and expenditure of the Trophy
Tax, which was ordered. to be printed for the use
of the MeMbers.
The tourt then proceeded to the business of the
ReqUisition.' After it had been read,
Mr, WAITHMAN rose.--4le said it was`painfh►i
to him to be under the necessity of so frequently
addressing the Court, for the purpose of bringing
forward propositions for the: redress of public
grievances, or to oppose inroads upon the. tights
and 'liberties of his countrymen but it was par
ticularly irksome on the present occasion, because
no rational anticipAtion could have been enter•
taineo•lsuch an attempt as Miniiters, had avowed,

to renew-, the Suspension of the Habeas Corpus—
at a moment whew the Houses of Parliament were
filled with petitions for redress of public grievances,
and no pretence for it existed in the violation of
peace and tranquillity in any part of the kingdom.
To most of the persons he then addressed, it could
not be necessary to make many observations, in
order to sheiv that the Habeas Corpus was an in-
valuable right, of which they were still longer to
be deprived—a right of. which, if they ought ever
to be abridged, it ought not to be without the
clearest proof of necessity for its suspension.—
(Hear, hear !)—Ott a former occasion he had
entered into details, to show that. the right of
habeas Carpus bad belonged to Englishmen as
far back .as their Constitution could be traced,
though it was. an opinion pretty generally enter-
tained; that it was conferred by the Act in question.
It could not, howzver, ,be too often repeated,
that it was an old right, recognized by Mugna
'Cholla, the Bill of Rights,,and not less than forty
Statutes besides ; yet all these not being found a
sufficient security, our ancestors obtained the Ha-
bees Corpus Act,-in order the better to.define and
protect a right which bad been acknowledged
thrattgli' -so long a period of 'our'history. It was
in the reign of Charles the. Second, a reign fruit-
ful in plots and alarms, that our ancestors, so fur

from thinking. that such was the tiu►e at width
the ight ought to be suspended,—it was then that
they chose to assert it by the Act referred to ; and
be could therefore not , suppose a case, under
ex-
isting circnmst afters, which could induce any tnun
to surrender this right,, a ho had the least venera-
tion for the Constitution., The .existing laws
were able to grapple with political offences and
,politiCal
,offenders, or, if they were not, they
might be made so but he would say, do not
break in on .the sacred bulwark of the Constitu-
tion,-(l7lear !)—He had on a former occasion ad-

tinted to the qievances which gave birth to the
Habeas Corpus,Act. An individual, illegally int-
prisoned,eulled the attention of Varliatnent to the
circtunst.ance, and they thought it necessary to
erect this barrier atainst the inroads un
public liberty, and, for the security of the pub-
ject. It was .true there had been cases in which

this Act had !Seen suspended ; but it vas a mat..
to of doubt whether any of the' circumstances
were sufficient to justify it. Here was the clanger
of precedent, which, however, established in the
fist instance, was eagerly sought by ether Nlini-
sters to justify suspending the tights of the peitple
on the most light and unworthy 'pretences. He
would call to the mind of the Court the dream-
stances under which the present sospension took
place. It was at a time when 'the people, op•
pressed beyond measure, came forward.with peti-
tions for redress, that the Government took ad.*
vantage of some excesses to suspend the Constitti-
tion. It was impossible. not to suspect that this
was with a 'view Id fortify themselves to cotrup•
lion, and to protect existing abuses. Since then,
the public had witnessed the passing of Acts to
suspend the very life's blood of the Constitution,
with so much haste that an individual living in a
remote part of the kingdom had not time to mi.
btand them, and petition against them, before
it was too late. But they had not only been
hurried through Parliament, they bad been passed

upon ex-paieevidence, tvith out the means °Loon -
tradicting the statements on which ►hey woe said
to be founded, and which had since in the mostpa-
tetial facts been proved to have been erroneous.
He would ask, what bad been done %ince the pass-
ing of these acts, that could not have been done,

without them ? What measure had been taken that

might not equally have been ,pursued under the
existiag'laws ? IVho had hcen taken up that might
not equally have beeu apprehended ? and what
facts bad transpired that were not already pub
liciy knoWn ? He had read the indictments, against
the State prisoners, and **king through the legal
garbage with Which they were loaded, he could see
nothing but what every body was acquainted with.
Yet, notwithstanding all this,' Ministers passed
these acts by large majosities ; and the people of

racter, and experiem:e, to whom the reins of Goe

were charged with wishing to bring the populace
into the Constitution, those who made the charge
were 'bringing forward she hungry tools of poll
tical'specelation to feast upon it, and this at the
pmincot that petitions were being piled up against
the inundation 'of corruption. Former)sy, the
beads of fomilies had to consider as to the 'bring-

suitable education according to their views; but
note the country had to find stock in trade fur

eeTves.—(.A 'ugh !)—lt had been said, and indeed

suspension of the habeas Corpus do to you ? Don't

the Property Tax, because it dipped into his own

was non, met to oppose ; and it was not less a
matter of interest. than it ought to be of principle,
'to prevent the further suspension of the Hilbert*

S. That Petition's he presented to both houses of Parlie,
!tient, to reject arty proposition for renewing thasuspensioo
of the Habeas, Corpus, and requestios a reform of existing
abuses.
Upon the 'flush itcsolution tieing put,
Mr: litreisisaer, seconded the motion.—ft was
unnecessary, after the luminous speech which they
had just heard, to enter at any length into the
subject ; but he could not set clown without 'ex-
pressing his hearty assent to the motion of his
worthy Friend. Because a few desperate
inctivi-
duals had been guilty of 'outrages, that was no
cause for suspending that Which was the greatest
boon we had detitted from our ancestors.
Mr. Samuel., DIXON opposed the motion. 'flue

the strongest reasons for so doing; but ha had a
better opinion of mankind in general than to be-•

to them. They must know that even' if they
carried the measure at the

politic to throw out such gross imputations against
his Majesty's Ministers and both Houses ofPar-

liament,—tor itwas to them that not only they
themselves but all Europe were indebted for all
the privileges they enjoyed at that moment'; Every
!goober of the two (-louses .of Parliament hail
shove the utmost desire to attend to the existing
distresses of the country. When* be heard the
"'Patents" making so' many declarations of what
ought to be done tor the country, he cozufessed be

short time only, to see how far they would carry
their prrifessions of ecooorny into practice. It would
thus 'afford the country an opportunity of judgiog,

distresses existed- in the country, for, on time con-
trary, no mats was inure disposed to feel for and re-
lieve these ;listresses; yet be did not consider them

the want of that monopoly of trade which we en-
joyed exclusively during the war. This, in the
'opinirm of every unbiassed mind, was the prineis
pet, Tuft the ottly cause of of r present calamity.
lie bad heard with swum sterprise that as the cri-
minal ootragea;which had lately taken place were
confined to a fetv obsettre and indigent wretches,
therefore, thtr Ililbeas Corpus Suspension was un-
Pecessary ; and he was equally astonished to wit-
tieSb the levity with which such outrages had been
treated. It was sti far well, that the outragee
were the acts of a fete, but was it :at all credible
that they mould always be the dobigs of a few

lc Volittions. Which bad occurred itt Empires, ehewn

of Wife 'was as water let out, and therefore it

could not ba too promptly ebectiett. A Snow-1)P.11,
to use a vulgar pitraie, never lost any thing by
but 911 the contrary gathered. The in-
flammatory publications -which were issued at a
cheap rate, had now, thank God, been checked in
their progress,,and those political ignorant dema-
gogues, who had so loitg distracted the country,
were now Silenced.- lint the principles which
actuated them were still the same, and were only
krpt down by the salutary restrictions imposed by
this Act. Viewing then the matter in this light,
he begged to say; that should bt even stand alone,
he would hold up his -band againit the proposed
Resolutions.

Mr. Alderman GOODBpiclte thought It !imam.-
dinary that'so much time should have been wasted
by the last Spenket without( coming to the pint
iu question. Ile wished that Gentleman to he uo.
deceived, awl not bug himself op with the Wee that
the public were satisfied seith the measures lately'
pursued by Government. Ile had attacked unwar-
rantably the Administration of the falents ; but he
would tell him the country was' of opinion those
were the best Governors who best protected the Ii
berries and properties of the subject, whilst those
were the worst whb attacked both property and
liberty by a system of public_ dissipation and
radical corruption.—(Hear!)--,-It was easy . by
these critet ions to see.whether the Talents or the.
present Ministry were bee entitled to our grail-
t suds and confutemee. Hoyt, long were Englishmen
to be insulted by asking theM, when they were
more at liberty to walk about, or when were chi:),
better off ? Why should those who felt gulevedby
the late proceedings of the Ministry, be told, if
they (lid not like the laud let them leave it ? Their
reply was this :—Do not you make the land so
wretched that in our own defence we must leave

by the critical state of the times, and sbould vote

Mr.•PEARSON bad given way to the Hon.

ronet iu hypes that he was. to throw some new
light on the sulsiect, but he had only professed
himself a mourner at the funeral of the Habeas
Corpus. A worthy Gentleman had said, that we
arrogated a greater degree of wisdom titan Our
ancestors ; yet las own speech ltd contradicted
the imputation. The Habeas.Corpos was obtained
to prevent proseemions on mere suspicion. Sus.
picion was the only ground alleged now for sus-
pending this bulwark against suspicion. Our

vowed to prevent' the Suspension of What their

absurd and dangerous than to allow Ministers,
because forsooth they were so good, so wise, and

than he was to the Constitution, and on that ac-
coma he was determined to stand to his post---
Had he consulted his own feelings, he perhaps
should not have
,spoken, but there were two or
three points in •the speech of the Honourable
Mover, which he could not help noticing. It was,
in a free country like this,impossible for any one ra-
tionally to expect unity of sentiment in every thing,

!or on the contrary, in every free country there ne-
cessarily existed u diversity of opinion. II ecould not
concur in the opinion of the Habeas Carpus Act be-

big "the lice's blood of the Constitution,". yet oc7
man could value that 'Vet more highly than he did.
At the tinte, however, when it passed into a law,
there appeared to have existed a difference of opi-
nion respecting it, as
,Bishop Burnett had told us
in his history, that it passed,the Lords by a very
small majority indeed. The Suspension of the.
Act was not the entire Suspension of the Con-
Atitinion, but he firmly believed it had been the
most effectual means of restoring the public peace,
and the public credit. Prior to its being suspend-
ed, we had seen meetings 'of the most tIIIII9ItHOnS
and unprincipled nature convened, but happily
those' had been prevented' by this salutary urea-
snre. We had seen public confidence- restored,

with every country on the face, of the earth.
All the arguments which bad formerly been
adduced in favour of the suspension .had, no
referenCe to the present case, and on all the
points which could lie hrottOtt forward, the Pub-
lic was as perfectly able to judge as a Com-
otittee of becreq, seeing that, in the informs-

liana which had becu laid against those persons
who were about to be put upon their trials, there
was not a syllable. Which every newspaper in the
kingdom had not published. 1 r v6is yet to he ex-
Plained why t he Attorney-General had been so long

feted to sleep for such a length of time, were poi

sary. Although he denied that -the.country had
experienced any of thole beneficial effects front

the Susionsion which the Gentleman who spoke
iaat - had ascribed it, he could not give bia
consent to that part of the Resolutions
which went to impute to his Majesty's Mi-
nisters an intention of introducing a despotic form
of gOvernment. Looking to their private clime-,
ters, be should entirely acquit them Of any such
attempt; He was a decided enemy to innovation
of any kind, and he thought that the suspension
of the Habeas Corpus Act was one of the most elan-
gerotis innovations that could be contemplated;
It had first been proposed (hiring the sitting Of
Parliament, and now it was to be expected to but
(hiring the absence' of the Parliament: that
interval there might, perhaps, .he a dissolution ;
and if such was the case, he bad no hesitation in
saying, that it would be a total dissolution. of the
freedom of election.

Sir JAMES 811AW,—My Lord Mayor, at this late

found security abroad, Ministers should be hardy
enough to propose In Parliament the suspension
of' the best au4 dearest lights of the'British

tinn. Entertaining this opinion, I shall my Lord,
in my place in Porliatnent, use every exertion
possibly cart to resist a measure, which to me, lit
least, appears a most unjustifiable,: unnecetolY,
nod improper attack on the liberties of the people.
