, integrity, was a sight which the gods themselves
might contemplate with satisfaction. This,
is undoubtedly true ; but it is equally true
that that to see a King looking dov:n from
his throne, and fe ling for the miseries
of his people, and determining to relkve their mi-
series and redress their wrongs, is a sight which
PROVIDENCE might well be supposed to contem-
plate with satsfaction. I will now calf upon you
to exhibit a spectacle, and that spectacle shall be
one of loyalty and devotion. I am about to ask
you to cry out the words "GOD bless the King."
I therefore desire that all of you will 'take off your
hats, and that you will look up to the heavens,
where the just GOD rules both heaven and earth,
and that you will cry out with one heart and with
one voice, " Gon bless the King." [The specta- ,
cle which here presented itself was beautiful, and
magnificently sublime. Every head was unco-
vered, every face was turned up to heaven, and at
one moment a hundred thousand voices responded
to the cry, " Gob bless the King." Mr. A. re-
sumed his seat amidst the most deafening cheers.]
Wont of room obliges us to omit many other
speeches which were afterwards delivered.—An
Address to his Majesty, a memorial to Earl Grey,
and a petition to the House of Lords, praying
their Lordships to pass the Reform Bill, were
carried with one voice, and the immence multitude
quietly dispersed.—Thu following is a copy of the
memorial to Earl Grey:
"TO THIf RIGHT HON. EARL GREY FIRST
LORD OF HIS MAJESTY'S TREASURY, Ste. '
" The Memorial of the Inhabitants of the town and neigh,-
bourhood of Birmingham, assembled at a Meeting at
Newhall-bill, of 100,000 persons, this 3d day of October,
11131.
" Most respectfully sheweth,-Ist, That your memo-
rialists are Impressed with the deepest gratitude to your
Lordship for the wisdom, firmness, and true patriotism I
which your Lordship has displayed in bringing forward
that great and salutary Bill of Parliamentary Reform, the
progress of which through the House of Lords is now
watched with intense and breathless anxiety by every
friend, either of the liberty, or of the peace of the country.
" 2d. That in case the He4se of Lords should be so mis-
led by the misrepresentations which have been made to
them, as to reject or mutilate tfiegrest 13111 of Reform, your
memorialists are apprehensive that your Lordship might
possibly be Induced to resign the distinguished and most
important station which you hold in his Majesty's Councils;
and your memoralists greatly fear that the most tremendous
consequences might arise in ease of your Lordship's resig-
nation a, this momentous period.
" 3d. That your memorialists will never despair of carry-
ing the Bill of Reform into a law, peacefully and constitu-
tionally, so long as your Lordship continues at the brad of
his Majesty's Councils; but should your Lordship be in-
duced to resign, either from the difficulties and supposed
dangers which surround you, or from distrust of the cifident
support of the people. your memorialists would, in that case,
altogether despair of the safety of their country.
Your memorialists do, therefore, respectfully but most
earnestly entreat that your lordship will, under no cireum.
stances whatsoever, be induced to resign the high and im-
portant station which you hold, so long as you. lordship
retains the confidence of his Majesty.
(Signed by the unanimous order of the meeting.)
