intil tally years afar, that the injury of
aopoly was felt by the public, and its value
by the brewers. A free trade existed at that

accumulated by individuals, and the grow-I

brewers. It was not his object now to go into
of all tier oppressions which had arisen of
out of the present system, because these
to be found in the Police Reports, and in Re-
of procetclings in Courts of Justice, all which
already before the public. It appeared by one
:Mg in a court of law, that a license had .been
away from a publican, because he had voted
particular candidate at an election, in opposi-
to the will of the licensing magistrate. And it
appear that others had lost their houses only
,anging their brewers, and others for selling beer
under price. Such circumstances were detailed

countries, and conversed with magistrates in
countries, and hid found that no such arbitrary

did not exist at this moment in Franco. Hol-,
,or Germany. He had conversed with several
ik-s of Parliament as to the mode of getting

so bad that it could not be mended, for it would
-cessary to change the whole system in principle.
nses indeed were granted for many innocent pur-
i—such as a license to flour‘hne's hair, a license
married, etc. ; aad all these were easily obtained,
the licenses for sefling beer were not to be had,

knew what he had seen, that numbers of men

r should exist at this day, which had been de-
to a Royal Charles and a Royal James ? But
tld rather submit to the tyranny of one King,
to the arbitrary despotism of some hundreds of
y tyrants. The only use he had ever known in
present system of licensing was, that it exhibited
rusting picture of arbitrary power. On a pro-
non for taking awn), the discretionary power,
were called upon to consider the property which
at stake ; for this property he had no tenderness,
with it, he submitted, they had nothing to do.—

a hundred thousand pounds in hoUses, and an-
• hundred thousand in trade, his object was to
prod: by both ; and thus the Public paid, not
a decoction of malt and hops, but for an infusion

,ess cf these abuses was to be obtained ? He
aced that the task would be an arduous one, but
a same time he was satisfied it was not a hope.

. Tutocn row to second the Resolution. If

a truism upon which no difference of opinion
arise. He had listened with attention to all

had fallen as well from the Gentleman who had
spoken, as from the Gentleman at the other end
ae table (Mr. Drnry). One or two obvious facts
Tally presented themselves to his mind. They
been told that the brewers were a respectable and
,arable set of men he believed they were, but
who knew human nature would agree with him
Linking, that all men who acted in a body would
n their fellow men. ( Hear.) He would not,
;hat brewerswere more liable to this disposition
others, but such was the nature of human so-
y. It was the evident object of all capitalists, ac-
;collectively. or individually, to make as much
an as they could. Two objections had been urged,
iris opinion very justly, by his Hon. Friend (Mr.
smut\ on this occasion. First, to the monopoly
ch existed; and, secondly, to the licensing system,
:h conjointly had the effect of producing a most
loos robbery on the public. He had no more
aims to confide in the honour and integrity of
"ers than to the honour and integrity of any other
of met ; but upon a basis constituted as their mo-
Dly was, there was no security whatoyer. ( Hear.)
only security for the public was a fair, open, and
ly competition in the market. From what he
heard, he collected that the profits to the pub-
Is Were 25 aad to the brewers 30 per cent.
DRURY here begged to explain.
Erse CHAIRMAN insisted that the Gentleman on his
should not be interrupted—( Ilcar).
TlLLocst begged that he might not be myna-
stood. The argument he ment to maintain,
not rest upon the accuracy or fallacy of ealcula-
,s• But supposing thew calculations to be correct,

-The profit, therefore, was 555. of which the
inn took 255. and the brewer

The general principle for which he Contended was,
that there ought to be no monopoly—(Pea..)—By
the term he meant nothing invidious or personal, but
adventitious aids to that sort of monopoly which capital
commanded. What were the grounds of defence urged
in favour of the brewers ? First, that they had em-
barked great capitals. Every man who embarked in
trade did the same thing, and therefore they Were as
little entitled to exclusive privileges as any other sub-
jects—(Hear).--But besides being capitalists, they
assumed the right of dictating who should have li-
censes, and who should not; thus becoming the cen-
sors instead of the Magistrates—(Hear).—The ef-
fect of getting possession of public-houses, was to
enable the brewers to get rid of beverage which would
not otherwise he drank. Would any man pretend
that if the trade was free and open, they should be
obliged to drink the same poisonous stuff which was
now vended in brewers' houses (Cheers, and cries9f Ned)
With respect to the abuses practised in licensing, he
read an extract from Clement's Police Reports, in
which the Committee of the House of Commons dis-
tinctly stated, on the authority of evidence, that the
power assumed by the Magistrates of refusing li-
censes was not authorised in express words by any
statute whatever. And yet those who referred to the
reports in question, would see the numberless in-
stances in which that power had been exercised. He
proceeded to shew, by reading the case of Meeke,
from the Police Report, the imperious necessity that
existed for altering the system of licensing. The Ma-
gistrates took advantage with respect to favourites,
while by the law and all former practice, no license
be suspended till the publican had been con-
victed of some misdemeanor by a Trial by Jury. Meek
was not aaolitiry instance of the oppression that was
exercised ; he had been robbed of 10001. that he gave
for his hostsein 1815, by being refused a lieencein 1816,
and he could find no other reason for it than that he
had changed his brewer. Such conspiracies, which
could now be carried on without the punishment of
fine, imprisonment, or lopping of ears, must naturally
drive all regular trade out of the market. If such
conduct were no longer suffered, there would soon
be an end of monopoly: but if no steps were taken,
we must consent to be ground to atoms. He hoped
that before the Meeting broke up some Resolutions
would be come to, that might protect the public. By
a unison of cordiality, reason, and justice, much
might be effected against such abominable imposi-
tions. Twenty or thirty years ago, when a Minister
intended to lay on a penny, (or he believed it was
only a halfpenny per pot) he was deterred from doing
it, by being told that the whole country would rise
in rebellion ; and yet now a monopoly of brewers
could raise the price as often as they please, and by a
halfpenny advance per pot, would pocket 300,0001.
with impunity before next September. If a good case
could be made out and brought before Parliament,
he had no doubt but the public would there meet with
plenty of friends. The high price of beer was injuri-
ous not only to the public, but it diminished even the
duties arising from it. The higher the price was to
the consumer, the less he used of the article; and a
consequent decrease took place in the receipt of du-
ties. Mr. Tilloch concluded amidst loud applause.
The question being called for, it was recommended
that the Resolutions might be read all together, that
a distinct view might be given of their object.

The CHAIRMAN wished to know whether there was l
any other person disposed to address Meeting,
previous to the reading of the Kilo
Mr. BEAUMONT then rose, and read the tther Re-
solutions, which are as follow:
2. That the Legislature has passed numerous Statutesto punish
such as are guilty of creating monopelies--particalarly monopo-
lies of the necessaries of life ' • and so early is the 2d and 34 of
Edward IV. very heavy penalties were imposed on victuallers
who combined together to raise the price of victual!, extending
upon a second repetition of the offence to the pillory, the loss of
an ear, and perpetual infamy.
3. That, notwithstanding the illegality of such conduct and its
injury to the Public, a monopoly in the supply of Beer has of
late years been raised in various parts' of England, and pardcu-
!arty in the Metropolis, insomuch that the whole custom Of hi
population is engrossed by about a dozen grew Breweries,whese
Principals act in combination—meeting together like partners of
one concern, and fixing the price at which beer shall be sold.
e. That when the reduced price of malt and hope, of horses,
provender, and labour, the lessening the tax on malt, and the
subsequent abolition of the Property Tar, enabled the Brewers
to make great reductions in their accustomed charges, they did
not make such reductions, but kept up their prices, until after
their conduct, had excited animadversion in the House of Com-
mons, alledging as a reason for their doing so, that their stock in
hand must be first disposed of.
5. That so soon as the failure of the harvest in 1816 caused
the. price of malt to look up, and while their stock was wholly
unaffected by the rise in the materials, they revived the high
prices of Beer to the consumer, which prices they have lately
still further advanced.

6. That the Beer as now made is so void o( the nourishing
and invigorating qualities which it formerly possessed, and is
oftentimes so ungrateful, and even injurious to the stomach, owing
to die deleterious ingredients of which it is composed, that con-
sumers are frequently driven to use a mixture of gin with it,
*Welt the semblaece of strength and spirit, or still more preju-
dicially to the drinking of gin instead of beer.
7. That these and numerous other evils art justly attributable
to the monopoly which the great Brewers have established.
s. That this monopoly is produced and upheld by the uncon-
stitutional power given to Justices of the Peace in their respective,
localities to prevent any persons from vending Beer, excepting
such persons and in such houses as they please; a power which,
being subject to no human controul, and being exercised in
many instances by needy or avaratious num, is naturally ap-
plied by them in preventing competition in trades in which they
or their friends or patrons are interested.
9. That a desire to prevent an unnecessary number of houses,
the reason generally assigned for refusing permission to open
houses, built for public-houses, where the reasonable wants of
the public require them, is evidently insincera ; because the same
licensers grant licenses to public-houses in clusters, where the
interest of their friends is thereby upheld, although such houses
can only be supported by allowing and encouraging tad measures.
10. That the similar pretence, that competition is preven•
ted, in order shag the landlords of the favoured houses may
flourish, and not be induced, through necessity, to suffer din.
ceded y conduct on their premises, is equally fallacious; because
the owners of the favoured houses, who are generally brewers or
spirit dealers, always require maw= of their tenants, equal to
the value of the monopoly to them, or an additional rent ; thus
keeping, the tenants' profits down, however valuable the mono-
poly may be to the principal.
11. That the supposition of correcting the licentiousness en-
couraged at some pubilc-houses, by denying licenses for others,
is only calculated to benefit the monopoly system; it being evi-
dent, in mind*, that men will not drink.iess, or be lass dime-
dcrly, when drawn together in one house, than they would be if
divided among two or three ; and it IS notorious in practice, that
sense of the most profitable house* are among those whist are
most injurious to the peblic health and morals.
15. That such is the value, however, of the prohibition of
competition, that thousands of pounds are frequently given for
the consideration of a license to a house, in other words, for per-
mission to trade, which expense, together with the extra profits
secured by the monopoly, fall uric the consumers, and become
a grievous burden to the lower classes of tin! community.
13. That it is unreasonable to invest Justi-.•:a of the Pt ace with
the right of issuing exclusive powers for trading in victuals, when

the issuing of sti:h poi►errbythe Sovereign himself is ii,clareti to
be void in 14w.
14. That it is equally unreasonable to authorise the said Jot.
tiara to disseize men of their liberties and flee customs, at their
own will and pleasure, without being accountable to Any human
being, while the King, on his Throne, is interdicted front " hur-
ting ur injuring" the meanest subject, unless by die worse of
law, and is answer.ible for his actions in the persons of his Mi-
nisters.

18. That after all, these extraordinary powers, even In the
purest hands, arc inefficient for the object of keeping victualling
houses in good order ; because they are only in action on one
day in the year, when punishment, 43 regards the past, is raiily
got rid of by shifting the tenant, and as regards the futiti,:, it is
es imposoible for the licensers to know that such houses as they
patronise will be well conducted, as it is that those which they
refuse will be disorderly.
16. That it is therefore equally in vain to expect an effectual
control over public houses, or a termination of the wrongs inflicted.
on the owners of houses, on victuallers, and on the public at
large, under the present licensing system--a systeii which is
proved to be equally inefficient for good purposes, and all-power-
ful for bad ones—erecting a power over the comforts, the pro-
perty, and the rights of the rojett, which is anomalous in the
cotu4rutional Government of this country, and which is be-
lieved to be unknown in any other.

17. That to produce a remedy, It is necessary for the Magir
trate's power to be removed from the patronage of the trade of
victualling, to the correction of the disorders which sometimes
arise out of it—from the exercise of their own uncontrollable
wills, to the admiration of the Legislative rules equally applica-
ble and exterding to all, in Which the penalties are proportioned
to the offences, and attach to them immediately.
lit. That in as far as it is deemed expedient to markt the
number of public-houses, that end will be most fairly and bete-
fitually actemplished by imposing a heavy duty on the license to
open any new house, thus diverting the value of the restriction
from the pockets of the license jobbers to the uses of the State.
19. Th2t with a large duty imposed on leave to open a new
bottle, and due means provided for immediately stopping a trade
conducted in a disorderly manner, no good reason can be ad-
vanced against restoring to the Public the benefit of 3 free com-
petition, and to victuallers the common rights of their country-
men—Gamely, the liberty to carry on their trade in such places
as they find most eligible (not being locally offensive), and to
purchase their goods of such manufacturers as offer to supply
these► on the best terms.

Mr. JONES said, that however unwilling he should
feel to interrupt for a moment the passing of such
'Resolutions as had been just read, still he thought
no apology was necessary for an Englishman in'
rising to express his sentiments upon a subject of
such vast importance as the present. This he did
with the less reluctance, in consequence of an appa-
rent oversight, by the Gentlemen who had already
spoken, of one point connected with this matter, and
which referred to the quality of the beverage used by
the public. He stated himself to be a member of the
medical profession, and as such most unreservedly
declared that the health and lives of his Majesty's
subjects were alarmingly endangered by the delete-,
rious substances used in the compositiou of porter.—,
(Loud cheers. I—The corporation of brewers con;.
slued, as the Meeting had been told, of honourable
men; perhaps the information was correct in the
general acceptation of the word. But honour was of,
two kinds :—one was applied by the courtesy of so-
ciety to almost every individual who filled a certain
rank, and had the port and bearing of a Gentleman;
but the other was less general in its application.
He could not conceive men honourable who sought
to grasp the rights and immunities of the people,
who extracted their property to pamper pride :and.
gretify avarice, cir'who would take advantage of thl
season of misery and distress, to convert the neees4
ties of the poor to the means of their own indulgence
-.-(Applauic).----It had been observed by one- Gesdeil
man that, at an earlier period of our history, the
Minister of the day hesitated to impose a duty on '
malt that would have-increased the beer by a half:
penny a quart, lest a rebellion should be the cone-,
quence. " This observation," said Mr. Jones, " ex-
cited in my mind a train of reflections which I vainly
endeavoured to 'repress. I could not avoid insensibly
'comparing the character of the people in the present
day with what it must have been at-the period allu-
ded to, and I found a contrast by no means flattering
to ourselves. But, Sir, although the conduct of the
brewers in modern days may not excite a rebellion, I
can assure you that their productions, if I may be a
little facetious, have not unfrequently been-attended
-by intestine commotions--(Laughter and applause).-
-.The frequency of bowel complaints has been within
the few last years a matter of much astonishment to
my learned brethren; but in those cases where I
have been professionally consulted, I have no hesita-
tion in saying that the disease has been caused by the
use of beer or porter, 'and could be cured solely by
abstaining from that beverage."—Mr. Jones then pro-
ceeded to remark upon the cruel effects of the system
of licensing, and of the influence exercised over the
licensing Magistrates by the brewers, as they were
exemplified in the publicaos, This class of persons
were in a state of more Aslorable servitude than
were the serfs under the feudal Barons. The publi-
can oainls in awe of his landlord, of his brewer; and
should he fail in the obsequiousness of his humility
to them, he was at their mercy, for the Government
had deprived him'of his constitutional protection—a
trial by juty.—He had expected that the brewers
would have some persons m defend. them at the
Meeting that day, but he was dis4ppointed. He
thonght that their influence and' their dependants
were so widely esfeided, that, like the Forty Mimes,
they, would have sprung out of their barrels to defend
thein.selves.--4Lcagitter)—He concluded V,strongly
enfoicing the necessity o,f.their relinquishing the rise
of porter, if the brewers were found perseveringly
hostile to a fair price for their manufacture.
Mr. Scuutres spoke in strong terms against the in-
novations of monopolists, tracing them from the times
of Magna Charts and other laws, when- even the
Church combined with the Stip, to check their im-
positions on the public, by :ulminating anathemas
against them. leis warmly defended the publicans
against the tyranny of the brewers and trading Jus-
tices, and asserted that elm practices of the country
'brewers, particularly in Beaks, where he resided, were
much more oppressive and infamous even than in
Liosidon. There the spirit-dealers who held the leases
of 'houses, compelled their tenar.ts to deal with parti-
cular brewers, and the latter returned tjlem the same
compliment. Ha remembered that 2.2 years ago he
*as very ill, and an eminent Physician recommended
him to drink plenty of porter as a fine medicine. He
4d so, and W.I. cured ; but be should be very sorry
to repeat the same experiment. In. addition to
' abuses already stated, which he repeated, be ob-

Mr. flotsam regretted that the it elOtsttotts *Ms
more argumentative than founded bet fact ; and the
results had been appeals to the passion's, raths't than
elucidations of the subjesr. Elfin the 110, arid liber-
ties of the brewers seemed excluded frond thak pro-
tection expected by others. No eommertill man
thought he ought to be obliged td expo* his prdflis
to any individual whatever. He Would not say that
the price of porter WU not too high ; but the subject
ought to have been taken candidly up, The defect,
he said, was in the licensing system, with which those
respectable men who encouraged a free trade had
nothing to do, and would most willingly joirt kri a
Petition to Parliament for's remedy. It Isms, he raid,
a fact, that those who had the greatest trade were
possessed of the smallest number of leases, because
::the excellence of their article rendered It unficce3sary
to force a trade, a resource to which many applied in
order to have their wretched stuff swallodved. There
was another thiftg highly injurious ; some pageant
were in the habit of making seven butts of beer out of
the six sent to them by the l)rewerseries of?o; no)
He referred them to the late convictidn of two rib&
cans in the Exchequer, for the truth of this stateittent.
He denied that the brewers were interested or invol'

red in the iniquitous system of licensing ; for the
most respectable brewers were injured rather than
benefited by holding public houses, and they were
greater sufferers than the public, by being obliged to
purchase such houses in their own defence. The Act
of George IL was rendered necessary, because at that
time spirits were so cheap, that it was written up over
the dour of gin-shops—" Here you may,get drunk
for 2d. dead drunk for
.3d. and be furnished 'with
clean straw gratis !" That it had turned into another
evil could not be denied ; but the capital of the
brewers had never been acquired in any thing like
such a rapid degree as arose from other manufactur-
ing concerns. He regretted that instead of the Reso-
lutions that had been read, one had not been propo.,
sed for a petition to that body, Where only a revs son
of the Jaws could take place.
Mr. BEAUMONT said, that if the Hon. Gentle-tan
had waited, he would hare heard just such a Resolu-
tion as that to which he alluded. The first Resolur
dons were declaratory, and if the Meeting approved
them, he should then move,
" That a Committee be appointed, to be called the Antl-Mono‘
poi 7 Committee, for the purpose of reducing the Resolutions now
agreed to in a Petition to Parihunant, fat restoring to the public
the right of a free trade in Beer, guarding against nuisances, and
adopting such measures on this subject as may be conducive to
the public welfate."
Mr. GIRDLER, a Magistrate, said, the ptiblk Were
certainly the victims of monopoly In more instances
than one. There was a monopoly in bread, which.
was th^ staff cf life. The badness of the breed; and
taking the poisonous liquor called beef Upon It, ?night
well cause commotLns in the stomach. When the
gentlemen brewers prosecuted some persons pl the
King's Bench, Lord Ellenborough said he was not
satiiffied with their affidavits. "- Let me," said he, .
" have affidavits that there are not poisorobs ingre•
clients put into the beer after it is made." But the
brewers knew they did use deleterious mixtures = they
therefore never came forward, and the persons were •
discharged. Thus between bread and beer, the pub.
lie stood a fair chance of being all poisoned ; and
the monopolizers all drank the tears of the poor in
silver goblets.
Mr. Dnuer explained his former statement, and
repeated the calculations, which will be found cert
rectly given in his early speech. He denied that the
brewers got $Ol. per cent. or near it ; and as to the
charges against them, he did not believe that, in ge•
neral, they deserved any of them. -In January, 1817,
• he could say, upon his honour, that he lost five s 1 d.
lings upon every barrel he brewed ; and out of nine •
breweries in his parish a shprt time ago, there were
now only two. The labouring part oi the commu-
nity also experienced a disadvantage by the decided
preference which the rich possessed ; because the-lats
• ter were epabled to brew strong beer for their large
. establishment, without the payment of any duty,
I whilst the former, who were supplied by the common
brewer, were paying one penny per pot more, or
nearly so, for every pot drank.
Mr. HOLMES explained some misrepresented views
i that had been taken of what he said, and suggested .
that the title " Anti-Monopoly," should be left out, .
I As he sat,: no reason for holding out defiance to the
r brewers, and tuts depriving the Committee of their
t 28srttaliee. ' • • •

Mr. Bunewitt. said he should also object to that
titli,thut for the reason that it was not strong enough.
It ought to be called the Anti-Criminal Comxpracy
'Committee." - He defended the publicans on every
grdund, particularly as being grossly oppressed by
the brewers, and more so in the country than in' Lou.r
don. Those who had defended them had only mad/
the case out worse than it was before.—(lferir).-
IHe mentioned a circumstance of his being about to
purchase an estate in Buckinghamshire, but declined
it, because four public houses were to be included,
that only let 'for five pounds a-year each, and he was
required to give 50 year? purchase for them. Ano-
ther person, however, stepped it, and gave 100 years'.
purchase for them ! These houses belonged to
brervers, who forced the tenants to take their beer.
After a few words from Mr. TILLocn and Mr.
BEAUMONT, in explanation, the Resolution was agreed
to unanimous)y, as was one containing. a list of the
names of Gentlemen to form the Gommatee. Thanks
were then voted to the Chairman and to Mr. Beau-
'lnont, and the Meeting broke up.
