rearesentation had been made; it found them a happy,
a prosperous, but he would ask, whether it had made
them a Morramed, a distressed, and a discontented peo-
ple?—(Cries of " it has," and a laugh.)
Mr. Rumex seconded the motion.
The Petition was about to be pat, when
Mr. ELLIS came forward. He would not have oh-
trailed himself upon the Meeting, were it not that be
conceived a Petition such as that proposed by Mr. Black.
()eels' to be seriously and impartially discussed before
it was adopted. He was as zealous as any man for a
Reform of the House of Commons, and for a diminution
of the expenditure of the country.—(Hear, hear.) But
he conceived that the proceedings were not conducted
in the best or most effectual way. He was convinced
that the itilnsion was out of repair, and that it swarmed
with vermin oho were hunting about in every ceriser
for candle ends and cheese parings.—(llear, hear.) This
arose out of the rotten and decayed state of borough
Representation; which gave to Ministers sprepeniser.
once setrisii. the Conititutioa never i:ltended they should
po . . They had been for the last 30 years petition-
iDf Parlilment, and telling them that which was as
plain sa the sun at noon day, namely, that there were
certain Members returned for their votes, and for their
votes only. Those Members having no interest in com-
mon with the people, naturally cast about as to the be-4
means of enriching themselves, their families, and their
dependants. The best Petition which had been pre-
sented to the House of Commons in behalf of the peop!it
was that presented by my Lord Grey; but even that
Petition remained unattended to.—The Worthy Gentle-
-111411 went on to observe, that the best mode of proceol-
ing was to apply for something specific. It was useless
to ask for all at once, fur no man could expect that
the House would by a sudden resolution make a.'
important a change in their own body, and abolish
all at once those things by which they eat and live.—
(Heir, hear )—Lit thee' !oak to what hail been done by
Lord John Russel, who applied himself to a specific case.
Gramputind was disfranciolard, and the next Election
would give Yorkshire the election of two additional
Members. In order to show the difference between act-
ing on cenerarpriociples and applying oneself to spesi-
tic cases, he would compare the courses pursued by two
great and patriotic men, men who were most anxious fur
the liberty and welfare of their country, be meant Sir
Francis Rintett and Air. Hume (hear, hear!) Sir Fran-
cis Burdett, was one of the most able and eloquent sup-
porters of Reform who erre appeared in this coantry.
but Sir Francis was frequently warm, and sometimes
violent in the cause, and the consequence was, that he
as he caused alarm in the
ifirieit(iiren

ghost of revolution, u charge al ways made against those
persons who advocated the liberties of their country.
%Ir. Hums, on the contrary, went steadily lint perser..
tingly forward ; he applied liimeelf to specific abuses,
and though frequently defeated, he returned to the
..large, and at length succeeded in causing those teduc-
,ions which have recently taken place. Mr. Ellis con-
cluded by say in;, that after the adopting of the Fetitioo,
which lie did not mean to oppose, lie meant to propoie
aomething which would put it into real action.
Mr. Almost:it, spoke strongly in favour of Partin-

ritii them, while prices continued, every thing was
right.—(Hear, hear) Ike prim try cause of the present

'reaching sound nooralprinciples to them ? Fur birn-
-If, would rather bare his money than the advice
if such a man. It was something like the conduct of
he three Holy Sovereigns of Verona, who were most
anxiously praying for the welfare of Spain, at a time
.vben they were preparing to inslave her.—(Hear, hear.)

The original Petition was then pat and carried.
