KENT MEETING.—Thi6 meeting has for
Noe
time engaged public attention, almost exclu-
t and has caused more excitement than any
47,ing which has occurred for many years. We
itie!tY give u very ample report of the proceedings,
woUld be doing an injustice not to acknow-
;:e that we are indebted for being enabled to do
tit to the extraordinary and indefatigable exertions
L,b4l!Pirited. conductors of The Sun. The mode

ectable, who did not range himself on the
tit illibe-
dcould obtain a patient hearing,: nor could
I-V.t."tor or station p:c: . ect him from insult.: The
particular, were assailed -with the foulest

~1.04 E OF THE KENT, MEETING.—The Sun,
:,tich has so often (listingu;shed itself by the trans.-
`tilts
of the earliest intelligence, supplies a report
termination 'of the proceedings at Penenden
nth. After Lords Camden, Darnley, and Teyn-
;. 171119 Mc. Sheil, and others, had been heard against
Edward
tirunswickers, and Lord Winchelsea and Sir
Ziward Knatchbull in their favOur, Cobbett moved
„." amendment, to substitute a petition against
,4nes,.for that proposed against the Catholics, but
khe Illgh Sheriff took no notice of him. Another
ke,ndinent was then moved, and supported by the
rt of Radnor, stating the confidence of the meet-
ofe in the Legislature to decide for the best interests
the State. To this, also, the Sheriff paid no at-
7ation ; but proceeded to declare the original Anti-
' Atholic petition carried, although the reporters de-
kte that the Liberals had a decided majority.
.eat indignation was expressed at this grossly
ral conduct of the Sheriff, and it is supposed
ttgeeecireing
f . will be, in consequence, some further pro-

THE KENT MBETING.—The London evening
japers, but especially the Sun, supply many particu-
tE3 of the important, and, in some instances, very
various proceedings, at the much talked of meeting
V Penenden Heath, on Friday. It is, probably,
there
to utter a conjecture as to the result—but
,!re are, we think, symptoms which warrant an
'Pectation that it will prove favourable. It is plain,
II Fill events, that the Brunswickers were not pre-
-411'.,a r!d for the' array of opponents that presented itself;
,o ..ci the correspondent of the courier thought it safe
itl declare that he could not guess " how the meet-
pg would terminate." It will be seen that Lord
-04rnden was present, and disclosed a new and im-
I) rtant fact relative to Mr. Pitt's intentions with
,tePtird to emancipation. Mr. Gipps, who opened the
4ttle for the Brunswickers, is so little of a blood-
-10?I. und, in the Irish sense of the word, that he declared
i2ttself, prepared to surrender on conditions. This, in
`self, is, we think, symptomatic of a victory for the
rood
. cause. From the passages that are given of
;It Shell's speech, we infer that it was a powerful
ne--and the more so because it was suited to his
auditory. The Sheriffappeared to have used all the
Itts he could to throw obstacles la Mr. Sheil's way,
and the Globe, in its last edition, states, that through-
out the address he was repeatedly interrupted—a
4ev, proof, we suppose we are to take it, of Bunts-
Iviek impartiality and Anglican fair play, ~ One
