Resolved. That ttlis Meeting riew'vslth the utmost dismay the
serious evils that will Decree to this country by the enactment of
nn y meareete tending to keep up the price of the necessaries of
life, as leeding to an exclusion of our manufactures from freign•
markets; from the impossibility of engaging in successful com-
petition therein;—the result, general distress, especially among
the manufacturing and commercial chases, discharge of in-
dustrious artisans and labourers, and eventstai gloom and dis-
content.
Resolved, That it is evident that pauperism is making most
alarming progress in th s country, as the augmentation to the
Pours' Kates ill but too well testify ; that the operation of
those Rates are extremely onerous to the middle classes of so-
ciety; that the projected increase of the Assessed Taxes will
add most severely to that pressure: this Meeting therefusremost
decidedly deprecate the passing.into a law any measure fraught
with the consequences so justly apprehended from the alteration
of the existing Corn Laws, by which the evils described will be
accumulated.
Resolved, That it is highly expedient that Petitions be pre-
sented to both Houses of Parliament as early as possible, and
that the Resolutions now read be adopted for the same.
Resolved. That this Meeting view with the deepest apprehen-
sion the ferment which at this period pervades the public mind,
and in duty to themselves and their country, they implore all
parties, especially the !ewer order of the community, to abstain
from acts of violence and resistance of every description, as the
least likely means to forward the efforts of the numerous and en-
lightened persons, who are at this moment strenuously advocat-.
ing their cause; and a' the same time t'tey cannot but warn the
Government to prefer in such cases ns may call for their instant
attention the aid of an increased Civil Kiliee to that of a Mili-
