as advocates for a Reform in Parliament, dine., to-
gether yesterday, in furtherance of the obj.cr y
have in view.
The cloth removed, ig the King 1"."." the Prince
Regent, and may he never forget the principles which
seated his family on the throne of these realms!"—
and " the ctieen and the rest of the Royal Family!"
were severally proposed from the Chair, and drank
, by the compariy.
Mr. LUCAS called the attention of the Meeting to
the business on which they were assembled. The
object of their mee:ing was to devise tneans for le-
ducing the expenditure of the country, by introducing
' a system of economy, in place of that extravagance
which now prevailed. Th;s could only be effected
by means of a Reform in Parliament, and the imme-
diate object in view WAS to give a safe. and steady
direction to the great work now in progress. To give
effect to these designs. certain Resolutions had been
framed, which a Gentleman in the room would now
Mr. Twiner: (late Sheriff of London) brießy set
forth the impottaoce of giving tire People that weight
in the great Cotineils of the Country to which they
were entitled, ,and en!orced the necessity of pmceed-
ing with the molt perfect order In the prosecution of
the design they had formed. Ile then read a series
of Resolutions, recommending that the trite friends
of Constitutional Reform do torte forward to exert
themselves in the encouraeetnent of Meetings to re-
ttore the Prosperity and Happiness of the Empire;
that the Meeting was fully convinced t:ett the vast
Kapeoifonmeet-43arestinsineut. at benne .atri abn,
exceeds all just and necessary bounds, and is becomt
so eppressive. that the People have no longer the
meant of supporting Such a system of extravagence ;
that the present enormous Military Establishmetit,
during a period of profound Peace, is as dangerous
to the Liberties of the People ai it it destructive of
the Revenoe; that the late Increase of Salaries, and
continuance of Sinecures and unmerited Pensions;
were not only a wanton waste of the Poir:ic
but the jest sources of Public irritation; that Mao Re-
form in the Commons Noise of Parliament as mill
give the People a just and doe weight in the Legisla-
ture is indispensably necessary ; that it is only by
reducing the enormous Standing Army, by abolish•
ing all Sinecures and useless -Expenditure. and by
rendering the Honsc of Commons an efli.ient organ
of the People. that the Islatir.n could lir relieved from
its present alai-Ming difficulties, Ste. &c.
Mr. R. Boas seconded the Result' t.ons. which were
unanimously carried withoUt discussiol.
A Committee, pursuant to the last itesoluzinn, was
immediately appointed. " The Constitution of Kilo-,
Lords, and Conunoos, and may all eff.ats to:tiro:salt

present tranquillity of Europe never be disturbed by
the injostice of Princes or the violence of
—" The Army and Islavy."." The health of Pas
Chairman and the Lord Mayor, and the friends to
Reform in the City," were the next toasts. Tile last
called up
Mr. Alderman Goomenueste, who, in the absence
of tf.e Lord Alayor, returned thanks for toe crort
ment just paid to his Lordship, and to the frier-N r
Refotm connect-d with the Corporation cf t':e C
of London.
Air. Waist:maw rose to enforce the importance ef
the objects of that Meeting. On a vertion of s trh
magnitude as that of a Reform in Parliament, it
not surprising that some differences of opinion shetf.l
exist as to the course proper to be pursitecl. 1-je
lamented the dstrusts which had been excited, ard
hoped to :are all classes at last united in the cause..4l.
He had not carried his reforming ideas so far av
some had done : he did not go the length of calPtig
for universal suffrage, nor of demanding annual Pa•-
liameitts. Ot the former he did not approve; and
the advantage of the latter he could not see. use
thought the representation ought yr be substantiAy
reformed and equalized; and a- retort% to Woo i.sl
Parliaments would, in his opinion, answer every pur-
pose in view. He-referred to the language of f•lr.
Fox, when be made his last grand effott in the cawe
of Reform. in 1797, to skew the importance of all
classes uniting to call for a Reform of the Ilooce of,
Commons. As one of the Committee appointed by
the Meeting, it would be his earnest endeavour to
promote union; to-rouse those who were lukewatm.
ma to repress those who were too violent in this
cause. He had lately had an extensive correspon-
dence on this subject. nose with whom he had
discuised it differed &om each other on saw points,
but he found
dowithouinuucarilleace
austruivithacopt there was a,

its uoanimity, and he again assured the Meetiog no I
aloft should be wanting on his part to unite all
classes for the salvation of the country.
The CHAIRMAN then gave the health of Mr.
WAMIMAN, the steady, and the consistent friend of
Reform. This toast was drank with shouts of up*
probation.
Mr. WAITHMAN said, he should, nn this.occasion,
trouble the Company no further than to thank them
for the honour they had done him. and to assure them
that he would never relax in the efforts he had hitherto
pursued, so long as he had health and strength to
enable him to do so. Fle should now, with the per-
mission of the Chairman, propose a toast ; and in
doing so, he she old give the company a test of his
Dien political principles. The toast 1/3i, " The im-
mortal memory i.f Chalks James Fox."—This toast
was done honour to in silence.
The health of Join/ PIIILPOT CURRAN, Esq. was
the. next toes:. This was drank with great applause.
Mr. Colman thew rose, ai.d spoke to this effect :
Mr. Chairman, and you. Ger.tlemen, be pleased to
accept any most respectitil thanks for the honour you
have done me; an honour pteculiarly gieat on an
occasion awful as the present. On ordinal), occa-
sions a superficial civility is sufficiently rewarded by
an insolvent bow. But something more is 'necessary
in return fur the introduction of nay name, at a mo-
trent when the liberty of England is in question. I
come from a country which has no liberty to be
proud of. and if 1 go back to it, it will be as to the
waters of Babylon—to weep. You have been pleased.
however, to give one toast—the Cause of Civil and Re-
ligious Libel ty all the World over. When you drank
that toast, I felt my heart embrace the Negro-4 felt

Ireland, if it heard that toast, would bless that se-
na° is prospect of your's. from which alone can
gro.v our human existence—(4/0/ause.) I am en-
t esiastic for my countrymen, but my enthusiasm for
them •is not surprising : my youth has been spent
amongst them—my sympathy has been stretched for
them--I might have sold myself at the market of
corruption, and grown ioto pride, and wealth. and
remorse, at their expense ; but I preferred to SU)
below with them in their humiliatiort-i-to mourn their
condition—to defend them if 1 could—to chide and
rebuke them when a hold friend ought to do so. On
their ueli..i. you for the generous sympathy
whicia fiascos:sated that toast—you will not find them
unworthy coadjutors in the vineyard of liberty.—
I might he disposed, pethaps, to trespass too much
on p.m indulgence, on a subject towards which my
heart will never freeze—the subject which brought
you togtther ; but the sentiments I entertain have
been so much better expressed by the member who
spoke List, my old friend, if he will allow ate mean
bon so (Mr. Waithman), that I shall only dela',
• them if 1 attempt to rub them over. They are sea-
- limetatit.which a longer life than he has yet-passod
has raietted more firmly on my judgment. Theaw-
fat stalsject of our meeting is that policy which, by
its melancholy results, we perceive has approached a
crisis. •It is written in lan in this country—it has
been written abroad in blood—(41/sestu).....I remem-

are useful when raised to oppose our enemies—not to
trample on our friends. But even in the streets now we
see nothing but spurs and cockades, and whiskers and
feathers. Fine birds of show' but odious birds of

Faith has not been kept in any part of Europe.—.
How have you behaved to Norway ? how to Poland,

had never been popular in Ireland ; the war with
France had never been popular there. I do not
magnify the importance of Ireland; Gov knows the
English blinistry had left it little to be proud of in
the wAy ul wedith—but still the voice of a nation was
something, and thrbase apostatei who gcverned it,l
thought it better to sell their country, and transfer their ,
voices to this:—(Mr. Curran commended the judg-

" Richmond, I6th January, 11117. '
" forts; I.waso to, Esq.
" SlR—Although I should have been confident that your meri.
torious and useful services in bridin had been sufficiently attested
by the records of the Company, and that my judgment of your
character and conduct must be apparelit from the mint authentic
ducoments, I moor you that I am •always happy to bear every
testimony in your favour which may feud to uhtalti just dist ac-
tion for you in this country, and to give the public the benafit of
your additional s.,rvicea in the awaits of India.
" It is a mere discharge of a public duty orb my part to declare
that, during the whole period of my Governnient in India, I con-
sidered you to inaild.ii; the first rank of tire Civil Seivicr at Ben-
gal, as well on account of your experience, industry, talembs and
attainments, as of your dear integrity, humane disposition, and
excellent tcoprr.
" The aftangtmentstwhlds It was my duty to accomplish at
Lucknow, required meow resort to eatraordinary aid ; at that
Court, on a very peculiai occasino, I then appointed you to the
moat important and dented station lu the judicial department
at Calcutta, ',Midi you tilled with such advantage to your own
character, and to the public service, that I afterwards called on
you to climate the arduoas duties of Chief Secretary to the Su-
preme Government.
" In Mat difficult, labodous, and highlreonadontlal shuatinn,
you coatinued during a edge of affairs which required every exer-
den la every department; awl it is an met of stns justice to bear
testimony to your Itighly-usdul and able services at that period
of same. •

" In the showiest of ado Secretary to the Government, I
left yoa, open my departure from India, retaining the deepeu
sense of
.the assistance which I had derived from you In the dis-
charge of the high tryst which I held in that country. The
selection which was subsequently made of your name for the
Supreme Council, was highly judicious, entirely conlormable to
sty opinions, and has proved in .the greatest degree useful to the
I Company, and to the Natiou.
I " Haring pasted through such a coarse of public service
and honour, principally under my Government na India, you
are entitle.* 'to clan from ate every expression of gratitude
for your past services, as well as of atitious hope for your
sweets to any pursuit, of which the attainment may en-
able you to serve your Country again, with the same zeal,
knowledge, and probity—with the same abUity and prudence--
which have already distinguished you in many severe trials of
dificulty, labour, and danger.
