any particular course—we have done out datr—that
which we have done is publicly disseminated, and.
those who think proper to pursue simihr measures,
would do so w;thoot our suggestion. I have been
instrumental to callint; a Meeting, which wiil take
place in Spafieldi on the second Monday after the

seen the Bristol Deb-gate, who has received another
letter from Bristol. At the former Meeting, my

13,111 names, and from the letter to which I have

of '20,731 ! And this ton, from a city, as

*aiming in town. At ail Last eseeti rig it was deter.
mined that we should continue meeting here, and
deliberating every Monday ; and I ace no reason
' why that Resolution should be disturbed." He con-
cluded by moving the omission of the words, "finally
separating," as meaning to convey an idea of their
nut meeting hereafter. •
Mr. KastfUlly approved of every delegate deli.
'raring his opinion upon the Resolutions which
might be proposed. For himself he was perfectly.
satisfied with the unaniniity which had prevailed on
the firmer occasion, and having. done all that he
was deputed to do, he saw no rea,on for continuing
'their deliberations longer; he Conde therefore sup.
pit Mr. Hunt's Resolution.

Mr. MITCUELL, delegate from Manchester, said,
th d, at their last Meee.rig, the qiiesti,,e of adjoure.
meat was one which had been fully discussed. Some
were of opinion that they should at'jourir altogether ;
but others conceived it would be better that they
should adjourn from Monday to Mond4y. To the
latter Resolution a number of Gentlemen had ac-
ceded, and it had in fact gone forth to the woad as
their ultimate determination. Under these circum-
stances, no doubt, :rimy persons would be coming
up to London, in the hopo of consulting with the
Delegates already arrived, who, it the Resolution
now sus grated were adopted, would be disappointed.
He did not mean to propose that they should all
remain in town; but he thought at least some of the
Dekgates then assembled should meet at stated pe-
,riods, with a view to assist their fellow-labourers
who might still arrive--(Hear.) With regard to his
own intentions he could say nothing—he had written
to Manchester on the subject, and, had not yet re-
ceived au answer. He could not agree in the dote
trine that there/ere not to recommend the particular
adoption of a particular course to others. if a poor
man,was benighted in a strange land, and he knew
the country, he should feel it his duty to advise him
how to proceed, so as to be extricated from peril—se
with the Reformer.. If these men were wandering
about without knowing how to act, although anxious
to act, ne should conceive it to be his duty to stretch
out his hand to them to put them in the right way.—.
(/Year.) This he thougkt was one of the most impor-
tant duties of the Deb:gates—for he was satisfied the
spirit of Reform esistectaintoug thousands who knew
not how to declare their sentiments effectually.
Mr. HUNT—" The question for discussion now is,
not whether we shill adjourn, but wheCier we shall
acknowledge the unanimity of our proceedings up o
this moment ? Tue question of adjournnicrit is in-
cludod in the next Resolution, which I shall propose.
Mr. 11,Irrensmr, delegate:fim Lancashire, spoke
in favour of the Resolution,
.nd fully agreed that it e
Delegates had been unanimous in all the leading
points of the subject which-they had met to discuss.
He was the more gratified that this had been the
case, because, in the part of the country from which
he bad come, a very general opinion prevailed, that
a general Reform meant, in other words, anarchy
and confusion, and the subversion of the principles
of the Constitution. He conceived that those who
wire distressed h.ecl a right to call for an investige,
tion of the causes of their distress. It might be said
