MR. HUNT'S INDEMNITY.

THE COMMITTEE for conducting the SUB-
SCRIPTION set on foot, as a testimony of PUBLIC
GRATITUDE for Mr. HUNT's exertions in DEFENCE of
the RIGHT of PETITION, proceed 1.) lay before the Public,
in conformity with the instructions of the late Meeting, a list of
the Sums already received.
They are sensible that the spirit with which the Subscription
has hitherto proceeded, is altogether inadequate to the purpose,
and that it dues not at present correspond with the generous
feelings of the Public ; but they are enabled to state, thst consi-
derable exertions are making in many provincial districts; and
they Ratter themselves that any present appearance of tardiness,
wiU, in the good cause in which they are engaged, have the
effect of stimulating every honest man, in his own sphere, to
exert himself in promoting the Subscription.
In proof that such a spirit pervades the country, and as an
example worthy of imitation, the Committee conceive they can-
not better promote their purpose' than tre copying one of the
local advertisements, as it appeared in " The Tyne Mercury" of
the 45th ultimo :

" HENRY HUNT, ESQ.
" The Friends of a real, effective, and Constitutional Reform,
are respectfully informed, that a Subscription is opened, for the
purpose of assisting to defray the expense incurred by the above
Pats lot, who has so nobly, ably, and triumphantly defended the
legal rights of his countrymen, and held up to contempt and de-
rision the unprincipled abettors of arb:.rary power.
" Be it observed, that the Whig Reformers, at their public
Meetings and splendid dinners, when the unconstitutional inroads
of the los have been condemned, and the sufferings of their vic-
tims commiserated, have hitherto avoided every act which might
prove the sincerity of their declarations. These' men of honour,
talent, and property,' in this part of the Kingdom, have not con-
tributed a single shilling to the Sufferers at Manchester, nor to the
legal investigation of that unexampled and beast-rending occur-
rence. Let us nut imitate those party men—they ate not our
' natural leaders.'

" Subscriptions received at the Union Room, Queen-street;
and at Mr. Marshall's, Bookseller, Newcastle. The Subscription
will be closed in twelve days from this date. By order of the
Committee. " W. WEATH2RSTON, Secretary.
Newcastle, April 21, 1820."
May other towns be found to exhibit equally correct feelings,
and practices equally exemplary. JOS. WEBB, Secretary.
