Some of the friends of the °orb bill are sogiberal
as to accuse those who differ from them OQ
_, •
of the measure, as being desirous of fo tine dif-
sion and dissension—nay even to excite a 'it of
insubordination. Will they presume to , such
motives to the Meeting of yesterday ? Are those
Members of Parliament who oppose tio Bill, and
iir;
those who agree with themo * n
theAl7*licy d in-
justice of the Forted measure, to have the ity of
lb* Potivsa 411r4edplig nun wiggle, jurlaisisaib
exposed to the danger of being warped by interest ?
Is it too much to beg that the measure may not be
hurried through Parliament ? for this is all that is
contended for by the opposers of the Bill.
To use the words of Lord GOENVILLE " Little can
be gained by precipitation—by mania: a tea ,with du
:rya:: If this tawdry. so as to have the measure passed
before the people have an opportunity of declaring

their opinion upon it." We add, and we do it from

the most heartfelt conviction, that Legislators
never can engage in any race threatening so many
ultimate evils. •

While we continue to express our honest opinion
on this measure, we would press upon the opposers
of the Bill—all the petitioners against it—all whose
rank in life give weight to their opinions in the esti.
oration of the lower orders, to be sealuus in enforcing
the propriety and necessity of a regular, orderly, and
respectful conduct ; add strenuously to oppoosibeit
influence against every thing that may have even the
semblance of intemperance, bat to say violence, in
the oppositiossabey give to the measure. The Bill
itself, from its verj chateau', is sufficiently cacti.,
lated to rouse the wont feelings and passions of the 1
lower orders—of all who have endured the pinching
effects of poverty—without baring them minces.
sarily inflamed by an appeal to their potions.
We understand that a Requisition siW Oy some

of the inhabitants of the parish Of St. Wilk's, bac
been sent to ARTHUR Mogan, Esq. High Bailiff of
the City of Westminster, to convene the inbabinota.
of Westminster on Tuesday next, in order to con-
sider the necessity of petitioning Parliament on the
subject of the proposed alteration of the Cora Laws.

Meetings are very general throughout the country
on this question, and we have no hesitation in assert-
ing, that out of Parliament nineteen of every twenty
are decided enemies to the proposed alteration. In-
deed it Is impossible that men can, by any argement,
be persuaded that with ha loaves for a. given sum,
the community will be as prosperous as when receiv-
ing sixteen or eighteen leaves for the same money.
If our manufactures are 0 come to market loaded
with such a balance against us in the sustenance of
the artisans by whom they are fabricated, Britain
must be undersold is every foreign market, and the
result must be that our population must diminish,
and exactly in proportion to this diminution will be
the reduced demand for Corn. In other words, the
Bill has a tendency to lessen the consumption of the
produce of our agriculturists, and in a very few years
much of our arable land must cease to be cultivated,
