It was violent ; it was hot ; it was heavy. There
was no ingenuity; no point. The Right Honourable
Secretary seems to have excited a laugh ; that to have
excited his anger; mid that anger to bare excited an-
other laugh. Ills talk about the peace of the coun-
try; about allegiance ; about due subordination;
about sapping the constitution ; about infamous de-
sign; about swindling them out of their privileges,
was wholly oat of place. It comes at a time when
the taste for it is entirely gone. The minds that sub
matter used to imprint itself apes are totally changed;
and be will see, if he live till Mr. HUNT comes out of

that prison, that be knows, at this moment, much less
about England than any Secretary of State ought to
know about even a foreign country. As to the leer ;
as to the usages of Parliament ; as to the distinction
set ap between this case and that of old Lona, it
may do very well for talk; it may do very well in the
way of speech ; bat, is there any map in England who
don not see the true tenon for knishes' Mr. HUNT in
jail, and also the tree reason for letting Loess out of
jail ? is there any man incapable of estimating the
conduct of the two ? De we not all know what Lem
had done? Do we not all know that be bad been
guilty of bribery and corruption with regard to seats
'in Parliament ; and do we not all know that Mr.
HUNT'S offence consisted io being the Chairman of a
meeting held for the purpose of producing such a Re-
form as should put an end to bribery and corruption
with regard to seats is Parliament ? is there a maul
of as who is ignorant of any part of this ? And, not
being ignorant of this, what care any of us for the
quibbling distinctions between the grounds of appli-
cation to the KING fur release P—We shall °seclude
oar remarks os this subject for the present,
with observing on the care which the sup-
porters of the motion took to disdains Mr. HUNT
personally, and also to disclaim his political principles.
Mr. How:oust observed that he "had no reason to re-
" gard Mr. HUNT with personal favour,and considered
" him merely in his public conduct in the investigation
" of abuses ;" that is. he considered him as a Reformer
of jails and not as a reformer of the House. Mr.
BUXTON would not consider the question." with refer-
" cue to the character of Mr. HUNT." Sir J. al AUXIN.
TOSH. who laid most manfully on epos the Secretary
of State, went, however, still farther than the reel in
his disclaimer of the principles of Mr. HUNT, and
of Mr. Hoax himself. He allowed him, indeed, to be
an Euirlishnsaa (and that, Sir Jamas. is somethiag);
bat, he said. that be disapproved of his politics; and
he did not arraign the verdict of the Jury, nor dispose
the sentence of the Judge ; taking occasion to add, in
another part of his speech, that the Judges were" the

the subject without observing that Sir FRANCIS Bus-

emulated is not taking the strong ground of ity

consequence of the informality of the indictment.
