• RADICAL REFORM MEETING.
On Monday afternoon a Meeting of the Friends of
Radical Reform was held in the Union Rooms, Oldham, to take
into consideration the primary cause of the present distress, and to
determine on the propriety of corresponding with the Society in
London, for the purpose of obtaining a Reform in the Com-
mons House of Parliament. The Meeting was called for two
o'clock, and shortly after that hour the room was completely
crowded, notwithstanding the rent of one penny exacted from
each at the door, towards defraying the ezpentes. Mr. John
Knight, an 'old and tried radical, was called to the Chair, and
shortly addressed the Meeting, pointing out to them the object
foriwhich they had been called together.—A person of the name
of Camperdown followed, and gave some account of the present
distress, which he described as being more general and greater
than in any country he had ever been in, though he had travelled
in many. The great cause of the distress he declared to be the
immense load of taxation, amounting, in one year, to more than
all the wealth of Germany. Other causes were, the unequal
distribution of property, the immense expense of the Church
Establishment, and Absenteeism. No. good, he said, could be
done until the taxes were reduced, the Church Establishment
reduced, the rich compelled to spend their revenues in this coun-
try, and the hordes of Irish, who are fast reducing the English
to their own miserable condition, were prevented from crossing
the channel.—Mr. Fillon (of Royton) next addressed the Meet-
ing at great length. He expressed his opinion that the pre-
sent distress was greater than at any former period, and he
pointed to the number of bankruptcies, insolvencies, and coal-
positions of the last four months, as a melancholy proof of the
correctness of his opinion. The causes of the distress, he said,
were excessive taxation, the iniquitous Corn Laws, and the
raising of the value of the currency without a corresponding
reduction in taxes. These causes could never be removed
without a Reform in Parliament. He was not very sanguine that
reform would soon be granted ; but he considered it his duty to
do all in his power to effect that desirable object. The present
state of things could nut last long, and perhaps the Government
would find it expedient to yield to circumstances. That staunch
Tory, Mr. Peel, had seen the necessity of granting Catholic
Emancipation, and it was not impossible that he might see the
necessity of a Reform in Parliament before many months. The
next speaker (a shopkeeper whose name we could not learn)
said if the petitions of 1817-19 had been listened to, the present
distress would have been avoided. He blamed the manufacturers
for nut coming forward to advocate Parliamentary Reform, and
for discouraging the labouring classes in their endeavours to cb.
rain it. He confessed he had little expectation of a peaceable
radical reform, but he was well aware that nothing but that and a
auhsequent " Equitable Adjustment" could prevent a blowing up
Of the present system. The speaker then went on to show the
progress of taxation, and the manner in which a paper currency
raised the value of commodities, and how the withdrawal of the
paper unhinged all contracts. His wish was that the labouring
classes should have a fair remuneration for their labour, and this
they would have only if a reform were to take place.—Several
other speakers addressed the Meeting in the same strain ; and
about seven o'clock the Niceties separated. The following are the
Resolutions that were passed :
" I. That poverty and want of the common necessaries of life
are now more deeply and extensively felt than at any former pe-
riod of time, although we have already had more than ten years of
an uninterrupted peace; and that this fact is proved by the vast
arrears of rent, by the insolieacies which constantly take place,
and by the vast increase of pauperism and crime.
"2. That these insolvencies have, in a great measure, been
caused by the stoppage of small notes, which has produced a rapid
decline in the price of all our manufactured articles. This has
caused a want of employment, and a great reduction in the wages
paid for labour ; and it is a fact, that during a period in which
provisions have advanced in price, a numerous class of workmen
have actually lost more than three-fourths of their former wages.
" 3. That it appears to this Sleeting that the greatest cause of
the national distress is to be found in the very partial, defective,
and unconstitutional state of the representation of the people in
the Commons House of Parliament.

" 4. That through the nominees of Peers, Noblemen, and other
rich individuals, as also persons who have purchased their seats,
together with those returned from decayed and rotten boroughs,
sitting and voting in the Commons House, the people have lost
their !matron' in the management of the national affairs; and their
power in legislation is thus become a nullity. instead of being a
safeguard for their lives, their liberties, and their property.
" 5. -That some of the traits of such representation have been
to plunge the nation into unnecessary, expensive, and therefore
wicked wars, which, after shedding rivers of blood, have en.ailed
upon posterity nearly a thousand millions of debt, converted an in-
dustrious and happy people into a nation of paupers, Mimi the land
with criminals and prisons, beggars and workhouses, rendering
soldiers and police officers innumerable necessary for the preserve-
don of such a system; so that if it be not speedily amended by en
effectual reform in the Commons House of Parliament, we may
expect to see some dreadful and overwhelming catastrophe.
" 6. That, in the opinion of this Meeting, the Commons House,
as at present constituted, wants both talent and an identity of inte-
rest with the people ; hence have arisen schemes of entigration for
sending away the producers of every thing really valuable ; hence
debates abOut over-population, over-production, transition, revul-
sion, fcc. henceAaws to make food dear and labour cheap Offence.

At an early hour this morning the bustle in the streets suffi-
ciently testified the interest which the Great St. Leger excited in
all ranks. At twelve o'clock there were several thousand congre-
gated in the main street, the great point of attraction being the
betting-rooms, which were so full that many were unable to gain
admittance; about half an hour after a movement was visible, and
at this moment nothing could be more animated. The principal
Nobility began to arrive about this time, several of them in state ;
the most dashing equipages were those belonging to Lord Fitzwil-
Hans, the Duke of Devonshire, Lord Chesterfield (two sets), Lord
Harewnod, Mr. Petro., Ste.

Precisely at twenty minutes before three they were all at the post.
and immediately alter the race came off as follows :

In the course of the morning the odds changed repeatedly.
Forth backed his horse freely ; of course this led others to do the
same, and the consequence was, that betore starting he was second
favourite, Rowton in the mean time having taken precedence of
Voltaire. The following were the closing prices :-

Without any thing like a false start they went off nearly together.
