iiTl3Ol4 AN;

Oa Friday last, a meeting of inhabitants of the
county took place in the Castle-yard, at Lincoln, to
petition the House oY Commons on the subject of
Arecultaral Distress. About half-past twelve o'clock,
the Sheriff, Sir I. H. Thor*id, opened the bailees,, sold
promised an impartial leering to all who might think
proper to 41.16.9. their sentimeets. Sir Robert Heron
then addressed the meeting is a very lung epeech.—.
He observed that it was bootless to gi►e time to as
attempt to prove the prevalence of distress, since
ail who were present felt traces of it in their
homes. The causes of it and the remedies fur it,
howe►er, were the subject of a difference of opinion.
The Honourable Baronet thou west Into a review of
the sentiments sod doctrines held and laes:catml is
Parliament on these important poises, and declared
his own opinion to ►e that it was a bad system of
Corn Laws which had occasioned the evil, and that
a total and entire prohibition of foreign Corn ought
always to have been acted epee, except under
particelar eireamstaeoes. He. declared the Agri-
cultural Committee to be a " bombast." and the aver-
ment that distress was attritiatable to a" transition from

war oft peace." to be the veriest nonsenseever addressed
to rational sewn. Mach of the distress felt was sadoebt-
edly atrribetable to the wicked piper currency, now ex-
ploded, sad which he hoped no state physician would,
•oder any emergency again, resort to. He did not an-
derstand upon what principle the 'bondholder
toold now claim to be paiJ at the real rate of six or
seven per cent. for that which be had contracted to ad-
vance at five per cent. This system could not go on.
for already, the taxes to support it, were paid not oat
of the profits which were made, bat out of the pro-
perty. No remedy. however, be thought, was to be
expected, so long as those Ministers continued is
power, who had so boldly and so obstinately hitherto
refused an alleviation of the bertbeos of the people.
The Hos. Baronet then went into a review of the Civil
List and avowed his desire to sweep away at °ace all
the " Noodles" and " Doodles" of the Court. By
I eradicating these and relinquishing numerou.• colonies
which were kept *sly because of the patronage whiub
they afforded to the Crows, great sayings might be
made, but it was only by Co•ety Meetings, and a
strong expression of public opinion that a change of
system could be brought about. Though such were
his sentiments, Sir Robert Heron in conclusion Add he
should produce for the adoption of the Meeting, a pe-
tidos such as rheas only who ISM far goes lodged in
Treasury politics could oppose. He then read the
petition which Is se fell., ws.
