The first Resolution was moved by Mr. Dillon,
of the House of Messrs. Morison and Co. who
made a powerful speech, which he concluded by
asking—
., Would the entniies of Reform undertake for the peace
of the country, the continuance of tr Me, the proverity
of commerce, or the stability of public credit ? He, as
a tradesman, declared they would not be able to main.
uin one of these, If they refused to I.ass the Bill (cheers).
But another and a more important question more.
Would the taxes be paid if the Bill were lost (loud cheers) ?
Who was to fix and demand the taxes? IVould the people
pay lazes levied by the sixty condemned representatives of
Schedule A, or by the Italf.crippled representatives of Sell.--
dole B, whom the House of Commons had already declare,l
unfit to vote? They must have in the House of Commmii,
as in the Chapel at Newgate, a condemned pew. to s,p t.
rate the condeinntd malefactors from the test of the com-
munity (continued cheering and laughter). They could not
revive the dead; and were not Gatton, Boroughbridge,
and Old Sarum dead ? The lightning of corruption had
extinguished them, and they could beat neither fruit bar
flower..*

Mr. WILLIAMS, of Watling-street, who se-
conded, observed, that " it had been a.,ked, ' What
will the Lords do ?' If their underst.indity:a were
net stricken with total blindness, they weilid e. 3.41
the bill : if they expected to enjoy their piesulit
wealth and honour, they would pass the bill, and
that speedily, for, in the present state of ptibiic
anxiety, any great delay would throw the whole
country into confusion." Nlr. Williams alluded
to the danger from forcing the people to view the
Lords as their enemy— " Let the Lords, too, con-
sider, (he added) who would pay taxes if the bill
was not passed, when the House of Commons had
declared itself, as at present chosen, not represen-
ting the people of England. All the authorities of
our country stated, that obedience to the laws was
required of the people only because they were pre-
sent in the persons of their Representatives when
the laws which taxed them were passed."
Col. Tonezes, in moving the petition, forcibly
observed " The boroughmongers tell us that we
are about to perpetrate borough robbery; uow let
us consider that ; they say it is their property to
return a majority of the Members to the House of
Commove. Now a majority of the House of
Commons has the power of t thing money out of
your pockets, has the power of making laws which
shall affect your lives ; then fore, if the power of
I returning a majority to the House of Commons
be the property of the boroughmongers, then your
lives and properties also are the properties of the
borough:non _era. Now if their argument be worth
a farthing, the people of England iwo I.•**.•
than negro slaves. Such insolence ! what fools
I they must be!"
Mr. CHAS. PEARSON exposed the inconsistency
of three who opposed the giving pledges to consti-
tnents on such a question as the Reform Bill, And
yet approved of Members of the other House resi-
ding in France or Italy, systematically voting on
important questions by proxy, without hearing the
debate at all. His explanation of the circumstan-
ces which occasioned the downfall of the Lords in
the reign of Charles the First is well deserving of
the attention of the peers of the present day.—SEE
