PUBLIC MEETING AT TRURO. -

Pursuant to a Requisition to the Mayor of the no-
rough of Truro, the Aldermen, Capital Burgesses,
and Inhabitants of that place, and the Inhabitants of
the adjoining Parishes of Kenwyn and St. Clement,
met. at the Town Hall of the Borough,. on Tuesday.
It having been supposed that the Resolutions and
Address meant to be proposed would resemble those
voted at some other places in the County, which evi-
dently were intended to encourage Ministers to im-
pose additional restrictions upon the public -liberties,
an advertisement was inserted in the Newspapers,
arid handbills were circulated, calling on the inha-
bitants to attend the Meeting, to prevent any pledge
(f unqualified support to the measures of Government
from being given in their name.
At ten o clock, the MAYOR, attended by the major
part of the Capital Burgesses and Requisitionists,
and accompanied by a number of the Inhabitants,
entered the Hall. The persons assembled at .this
timf2 did not exceed two hundred, but they continued
to increase, and shortly after the proceedings com-
menced, the Hall in which the Sessions are held was
completely filled.
On the motion of Dr. TAUNTON, J. F. BENNAIe.
LACK, Esq. the Mayor, took the Chair.
Dr. TAUNTON Said, that in framing the Address,
care had been taken that nothing should be intro-
duced which should occasion a want of unanimity.
Every topic had been omitted which couldlead to a
difference of opinion. They must all join in censur-
ing those blasphemous productions which were so
widely circulated, for the detestable purpose of sap-
ping the morals, that they might destroy the loyalty,
of the People. The Inhabitants of Truro were al-
ways considered ai the foremost amongst the people
of Cornwall, in attachment to the Government and
orderly behaviour ; he hoped they would still chew
themselves conspicuous for• loyalty and good conduct.
The Doctor concluded by reading the Address, with
the exception of a paragraph which was subsequently
expunged, and which stated, that if ever they (the
Inhabitants of Truro, and of Kenwyn, and of St.
Clement,) were called on to redeem their pledge,l
which IIeAvEN avert, they trusted they would not
be found nit gorthy those ancestors who cherished the
expiring embers of the Royal cause in former times. II
The Address being handed to the CHAIRMAN, he
inquired whether it would not be proper to propose;
some Resolutions?

Dr. TAUNTON not being prepared with any, the
Rev. Mr. PULWHELE proposed two, which he had
prepared for the occasion.
The Resolutions being seconded by NIT.JENxEY, Esq.
JOHN CARPENTEa, Esq. rose and said, that, con-
curring as he did in the sentiments expressed in the
Resolutions, he could not, however allow them .to
pass without observiy.g, that, in his opinion, they
were very defective, as omitting all allusion to the
unhappy transactions at Manchester.
Here the Requisitionists and their friends com-
menced hissing; they were immediately replied to by
plaudits from those wlin approved of Mr. CA RPEN-
TER's observations, and the Hail speedily became a
scene of noise and uproar. Dr. TAUNTON attempted
to speak to order, contending, that under the terms
cf the Requisition, no allusion-to the proceedings at
Manchester could be permitted; but his voice-was
drowned amidst cries of " Mr. Carpenter; hear Mr.
Carpenter!"—After this had continued fur some time,
the MAYOR, with difficulty, obtained a hearing. Ile
said, he thought it highly improper to attempt ,to
discuss a question that would so soon be taken up by
the first tribunal in the country, and he would not
allow it, nor could such a discussion be permitted
under the Requisition.
Mr. CARPENTRA said, that in loyalty to his King
be would yield to no man. He contended, that as
the unhappy transactions at Manchester were in truth
the foundation of the Meeting, it surely could not be
irregular to notice then.:
Here the tumult recommenced, the hisses of the
one party being drowned by the applause of the other.
At length, a momentary silence being obtained,
The IVIAvon asked Mr. Carpenter, if he had any
Amendment ready?

Mr. CA RPENTER said, that not being aware of what
would be proposed, he had not prepared any.
Mr. BUDn came forward, and said he had two ad-
ditional Resolutions to propose as an Amendment,
and proceeded to address the Meeting. He could
not avoid congratulating the Gentlemen who had
signed the Requisition to the Mayor, on the victory
they had obtained over their prejudices against 'po-
pular Meetings. He was happy to find that those
who trembled at the apprehension of a County Meet-
ing, were so far able to overcome their fears, and to
" screw their courage to the sticking-place," as to in-
vite the whole adult population of the Borough of
Truro and the two adjacent parishes, to meet and de-
liberate on a most important public question. To
the Resolations proposed, he did not mean to object ;
though he thought, as a set of phrases had been coined
expressive of a spurious kind of loyalty and a dubious
attachment to the Constitution, the expressions which
contained an assurance of their determination to sup-
port the Constitutional Rights of the People, as well as
the just Prerogatives of the Crown, should be distinct
and unequivocal (hisses and applause). But he could not
consent to any Address whatever which did not con-
tain a declaration of their opinion, that an immediate,
solemn, and public investigation should take place
into the late lamentable transactions at Manchester.
--.4llerethe speaker was interrupted by loud hisses,
which akere speedily answered by acclamations)..—....
Gentlemen," said Mr. Budd, " I shall wait your
leisure. I am in possession of the Chair, and 'shall
assert my right." After some time he was allowed
to prooced. No man could be mere strongly opposed
to publications which reviled the Christian Religion
than he was. He could call such publicaticms blas-
phemous, without prejudging the case of any indivi-
dual ; for a Jury of the country had SO pronounced
them ; and he was toady to join in every lawful
measure for the purpse of revelling their intro-
duction into this County. which W.IS happily free
from their contamination. At the same time, he was
free to confess, that he did not apprehend these pub-
lications would cbtain an influence over any consi-
derable portion of the people. Was it possible that
the great body of the people of this country would
scsign a system so glorious and so benevolent as
Ci-.ristianity, for that of Mr. Paine and Mr. Carlile?
V, ()laid Chril,tianity retire because they had " manned

a rush against,it?" The-supposition was absurd.—
Still he was williug to guard against the evil that
was apprehentted. The necessity of introducing a
declaration of their opinion, that an inquiry into the
proceedings at Manchester was indispensable to the
public tranquillity, was evident.—(Here the uproar
recommenced with increased violence.)
The Maros interposed.--.He was placed in a deli-
cate situation, and hardlylnew how to proceed ; he.
had already given his opinion, that any allusion to
the proceedings at Manchester could not be allowed
under the Requisition. He would not suffer any•per-
•son to address inflammatory matter to the Meeting.
Mr. BUDD said, he had no intention to go into the
transactions of the unfortunate 16th of August, but
to chew from subsequent occurrences, that if the
People did not call for inquiry, none would ever
take place.
The MAYOR said, he would not allow a debate
which went to prejudge an important question, that
was pending before the regular Tribunals of the
country.--(Cries of " Ministers have prejudged the
question : we only ask for inquiry.")-11e would
allow the Resolutions to be put as an Amendment;
but would not allow any observation on them to be
addressed to the Meeting.
After a great deal of contention, the Resolutions,
which were seconded by Mr. ALMOND HITCHERS,
were read.

On putting the question, that the Resolutions just
read should be added to those moved by Mr. Poo-
WIIELE as an Amendment, the MAYOR. on a skew of
hands, decided that the Amendment was negatived.
Those who supported it, however, declared that they
had the majority. The original Resolutions were
then put and carried.
Mr. BUDD ag came forward, to move an
Amendment to the Address proposed by Dr. Taun-
ton.—He was not insensible to the agitation and dis-
content that existed in the public mind ; he knew
that advantage had been taken of the public distresses,
to press upon the People impracticable political theo-
ries ; but he also knew that the Ruling Party had
been most careful to supply those who were called
Demagogues with arguments, which it was judged
more easy to reply to by Penal Statutes, and Military
Execution, than by reason—(Misses and applause).
But though he was not insensible to the danger
already mentioned, he also saw danger from a guar-
ter in which others perceived none. When he saw a
combination of Continental Sovereigns, among whom
was the Pt ince Regent of Hanover, trampling under
foot their own solemn engagements and the liberties
of Europe, he could not be unapprehensive that the
destruction of the liberties of this country might form
part of the general plan—Misses and applause).—
The conduct of Ministers immediately after the trans-
actions at Manchester, spewed that no .inquiry was
to be hoped for, unless the public voice was strongly
raised to demand it. Scarcely had the blood been
wiped from the swords of the Yeomanry Cavalry at li
Manchesterovhen, in an ill-fated hour, Ministers in-
duced the Prince Regent to give an unqualified ap-
proval to the conduct of those who dispersed the
Njecting on that fatal day.---Ellere the uproar be-
came so great, from the mingled shouts of disappro
bation and applause, that it was found wholly im-
possible to proceed.)—After some time, Mr. Budd
consented to read his Amendment without any fur-
ther comment, having first stated, that to conciliate,
as far as possible, those who were opposed to hhin,
he should omit the clause which described the Meets
ing as legally called, as that was said to be a ques-
tion still at issue his only object being to procure a
Declaration of the opinion of the Meeting, that an
Inquiry was absolutely necessary. He then read
the Address.
The reading was frequently interrupted •by the
hisses of the one party, and the applause of the other.
A Gentleman near the Mayor desired that he would
put the Address without reading it—which was done.
The shew of hands was now decidedly in favour of
the Amendment, and the Hall resounded with accla-
mations. The Mayor, however, said, that as it was a
disputed point, the parties should be separated, and
those who were in favour of the Amendment should
leave the Hall. On this, a great number went out;
and then it was said, the opposing parties should take
different sides. After the bustle that followed, it was
evident, that even without counting on those who had
gone out on the Mayor's suggestion, there was a de-
cided majority in favour of the Amendment. The
Mayor thought otherwise, saying he could only take
notice of those in his view; and after surveying the
two parties for some minutes, decided that the Amend-
ment was negatived. This decision was received
with shouts on the one side, and groans and hisses on
the other. The question on the originarAddress was
then put. Mr. BUDD said, that he must protest
against that part of it which referred to the conduct
of the people of Cornwall in the time of Charles 1.
with which they had nothing to do. The object of
that Prince was the establishment of arbitrary power:
would the Meeting pledge themselves to support Go-
venmient in a similar contest?—(No, no.)
Mr. J. EDWARDS said, that without any under-
standing whatever with the Gentleman who spoke
last, he had stated a similar objection to Dr. Taun-
ton across the table. It had been said they had no-
thing to do with the transactions which took place in
the time of Charles I. Now he thought they had a
great deal to do with them ; for he believed that those
who originally opposed that well meaning, though
mistaken Prince, whose fate he deplored, asserted the
rights and liberties of the country. He should there-
fore move that the paragraph alluded .to be erased.
This was seconded by Captain Davotwiree, and
agreed to by Dr. TAUNTON.
Mr. BUDD said he had been misconceived. He
meant, that the events which occurred at the time of
Charles I. had nothing to do with the present Address.
JOHN VIVIAN, Esq. moved that the Addresi be
Finned by the Mayor, on behalf of the Meeting, and
that it be presented by the Members for the Borough.
This motion being carried, the same Gentleman
proposed that the Thanks cf the Meeting be given to
the Mayor, for his able and impartial conduct in the
Chair.—This motion was received with a tumult of
applause, hisses, and groans, amidst which the Meet-
ing was dissolved.

PROSPWTE OF THE RADICALS.—A Meeting was
held at Tanfield Moor, on Saturday last, according
to notice : five enlightened Radical; attenaed from

COVNTY GP FIFE

TING.

The Meeting of the County of Fife, on Thursday,
the 18th instant, to consider of a Loyal Address to,
the PRINCE REGENT, on the present disturbed state
of the Country, was numerously and respectably at-
tended. The Earl of Moe Tow, the Lord Lieutenant,
was called to the Chair. Lord KELLIE, the Hon. R.
LINDSAY, Sir ROBERT PRESTON, Bart. Sir JOHN Os-
WALD, K.C.B. Mr. THOMSON, of Charlton, Captain
Wesseas, yOunger, of Wemyss, Mr. WEDDEREURN
of Wedderburn, Mr. CLrewea, of Stratyrum, and Mr.
GILLESPIE, with many other Landholders of consi-
derat'on, were present.
Mr. CLEPHANZ, the Sheriff-Depute of the County,
said, that the Meeting had been called by the Con-
vener and himself, not in consequence of any letters
of Requisition, brit because they thoughethe dange- '
roils state of the Country was a suffident apology for',
calling the Connty together. .A spirit of a diabolical
nature was afloat, which the Meeting should join to
put down. The question was unconnected with
party, as the existence of the Country is at stake.
Lord KELLIE then addressed the Meeting, remark-
ing, that after what had fallen from the Sheriff, it
was unnecessary for him to say much. In these mo-
mentous times, it was necessary to guard against
seditious meetings and blasphemous publications,
and the plans of the Radical Reformers to subvert
the Constitution, and undermine our holy religion.
He therefore proposed that the Meeting should adopt
the BesOlutions and Address to his Royal Highness
the Prince Regent, which he submitted to the Meeting.
Captain WEMYSS seconded the motion.
The CHAIRMAN then read the first Resolution, in
which the belief of the Meeting in the dissemination
of blasphemous publications was stated; and oq put-
ting it from the Chair,
Mr. STUART said, he did not object to it, if it was'
not meant to extend the belief in the dissemination of
such publications 10 this County, where he insisted
no such thing had taken place. He had made most
ample inquiries, and he denied the fact altogether;
and moved the following words as an addition to the.
Resolution:—" That this Meeting feels itself called
on to express their sentiments, although not aware
that any attempt to disseminate irreligious publica-
tions has taken place in this County."
Lord KELLIE stated, that it consisted with his
knowledge, that one man, not far from Cupar, had
been circulating improper publications; and Captain
Wenayss knew that The Black Dwarf was sent to
Durdermline from Glasgow.
Mr. STUART.—" Well, then, are you to libel the
whole County, because one man in it circulates im-
proper publications, and The Black Dwarf is at Dun-
fermline?"

Captain Wstivss added, that a copy of Paine's
Age of Reason was also there, and The Black Thvarl
was circulated.

Sir Roncnr PRESTON, in a low tone of voice, said,
" It is notorious;' and Mr. Duti"Das, of Blair, added,
that there were blasphemous publications at Culross.
Mr. STUART said, he was convinced the people in
the district where he lived, and he believed at Kirk-
aldy and Dunfermline,were more regular in their
attendance at church and on the ordinances of reli-
gion than the Gentlemen whom he now addressed;
and he cautioned them against creating a false im-
press:on oa this matter. Did they exclude sceptical
and• irreligious writers from their libraries? The fact
was, and he must repeat it boldly, that there was no
foundation for the charge. The people were well-
disposed, and the quietness of Dunfermline and Kirk-
aldy, the two greatest manufacturing towns in Fife,
during Divine Service, was ample evidence of this.
The Amendment was negatived.
The second Resolution, condemning the Meetings
of the Radical Reformers, and the encouragement
given them by inflammatory speeches, being read,
Mr. FEROUS, of Strathore, addressed the Meeting in
very solemn and impressive terms. He came to it,
he said, as a person intimately acquainted with the
manufacturing part of the People, and he was bout)/
to say, that their sufferings were great, and that they
were suffering quietly and humbly under the afflict-
ing dispensation.
Sir JOHN Oswax,to came, he"said, from the same
district as the Gentleman who had last spoken, and
wished to make some observations on what he, who
was the Provost of Kirkaldy, and a great manufac-
turer, had said, particularly respecting the Kirkaldy
Radical Reform Meeting. Sir John considered it to
be a violation of law, decency, and order. The Peo-
ple marched in with precision, and regularly orga-
nized, accompanied•with martial music. Their con-
vocation was on the Sands of ilirkaldy ; their flags
bore such inscriptions as these, " Universal Suffrage
and Annual Parliaments," " Liberty or Death,"
" Saunders, slow and sure." By such proceedings
all credit and confidence must be shaken to the centre,
and there would be employment for none. He was
as ready as Any man to do justice to the character of
his countrymen. He knew their worth, and all he
wished was to keep them from men wishing to mislead
them and to deprive them of their religion.
Ml'. FERGUS begged to be permitted to speak once
mote, and for the last time. Our People were, he
said, quiet, loyal, and religious, and bear their suf-
ferings with great resignation. There were'a few
misguided men, but only a few, who, he admitted,
made considerable exertions to form the Meeting at
Kirkaldy; but if he told what the sufferings of the
People were, it would harrow up their souls. They
are not disloyal ; but is it to be wondered at if they
wince—a population of about 12,000 souls, and wages
about Sid. per day. For GOD'S sake, said Mr. Fergus,
don't calumniate this County, they are' loyal, and
ready to support the Laws.
Mr. CLEPHANE said, that as Chief Magistrate of
this County, he needed no better statement than that
which Mr. Fergus had given. Perhaps the People
have a right to meet and petition the Throne; but on
his professional responsibility, as a lawyer, he assert-
ed, that the Meeting at Kirkaldy was illegal. They
were not authorized to have banners, which Were an
incitement to rebellion.
Mr. STTIART.did not rise to give any opinion xs to
the legality or illegality of the Meeting at Kirkaldy,
but this he was bound to say, that if the Sheriff of
the County believed it to be an illegal Meeting, he
ought not to have allowed it to be held. The People
coming to their Meetings with flags was highly im-
proper, but not the slightest importance ought to be
attached to their marching With precision and regu-
lathy. The People of this Country had been trained
