TO THE ZDITOR or TOR MORNING CRIONICLI.
SIN-.-1 observed in per paper • few days since.
some resolutions of the Masters of the Coal and Iron-
stone-Mitres in Staffordshire, relative to the dispute
that *QM exists between them and their men respect-
iag wages, and from those resolutioss it certainly ap-
peared to me that the circumstances of the lintel con-
si;leied..*the offer of the Mesten was liberal. and the
men had no judt cause of complaint.
As the subject was•trted to last night by Mr.
Peel, in the House of (*Wont, who corroborated the
statement of the Masters before 'Boded to, I will re-
trest you to insert the following Addresa, that is print-
ed and circulated by the men for their justification.—
This Adtfress was given in. by a friend, who was
travelling in that district a few days since. Seeing
a body of men assembled together, he joined them to
learn their complaints, when this Address was placed
iu his hands by one of the men to explain their griev-
ance. He says they appeared peaceable and quiet, bet
its the deepest state of distress and wretchedness.
1 will only observe, that the drink which they call
luer.• they give the men, is so bad that the men will
throw it down the channels in the mines, and request
the tame quantity of spring water; and as it regards
foil, whiels has been asserted the men receive gra-
tuitously, it does not apply to the Miners in the Iron
into.

" To the worths, and honourable Magistrates that at-
tended at a Meeting of the Coal and Iron Masters, at
the King's Arms inn. Bilston, Aril 23, 1822.
It appears. according to the.publications that an
in circulation, that your Meeting was respectably at-
tended by a part of the Coal and Iron Masters, who
lirve declared that the men ere rewiring from Two
Sl.illiags and Sixpence to Three Shillings per day,
with the advantage of three pints of pit drink. But
instead of three pints, a many of us receive but one
pint, and that worth no more than One huff-penny.
And allowing we have Two Shillings anti Sixpence
per day in the Ironstone Mines, as has been suggest.
ed, anti there should be Five Days per Week done
(but on an average there is not above Four Days per
Week) which will amount to Ten Shillings; and out
of that, suppose we deduct One Shilling to buy Coal,
and Three pence schieh the Masters stop for Clitio.
that will bring it to Eight Shillings and Nine-pence:
then in most places we are obliged to pay One Shil-
ling fur Ale when we receive it. Then in the next
place there is about Tiro Shillings and ThreeTeneefor
IZeut, which will bring it to Six Shillings, the nett
money for a family to subsist on.

" Now, Sirs, we humbly wish that you would in-
vestigate these things minutely; considering the sump
dangers we arc exposed to, the hardness of our la-
bour, and the small own that we receive for it, you
;oust be led to think that we must be almost in a state
tistarrottius! ! So we hope you will reflect for a
moment, and not draw too hasty conclusions by bear-
leg the reports of masters, who are almost alwayr

sitting too much for self, sad not listening to
of lbw poor aid needy. Bet we balie►s you
informed wrong by these fientlemen, if we may ►
call them ; who would seed us to the grave willow
any feeliag for our case. Bat considering that we
are, or shouli be in a free nation, and not born to be
slaves ; we take the liberty of addressiog you in this
plaia sod simple as hoping you. will interpose
for we according to your wisdom ; and we pray that
God may direct yew ; so that there may be a speedy
tranquiility between masters and servants; that mas-
ters might not make their sensate like the Egyptians
of old, to
pay that regard that is due to masters. nut es a alive

PENSION WAN. -
We are this moment informed that the Meeting at
the Treasury bas taken place, and that the Sends Sea
Company bare declined bidding for the Loan. We
also understand that no other party whatever bas
offered to bid.

PROCEEDINGS IN PARLIAMENT.
Is the Loans nothing at all interesting ; and we
May here observe, that we have no recollection of any
Session of Partialness during which there was so little
of discussion in this tsetse. The reasons are obvious
elpegb ; bat as wen to leave them un-
stated.
In the Comatose wen Mr. litstsmte's motion for
leave to !sting in a Bill to amend the laws relating• to
the Licensing of Prblie Houses. and Mr. Huma's mo-
tion relative to the lonian Isles. The precise objects of
the Bill we do sot yet kaow; but, that it content.
plates an alteration is quite enough for us ; seeing
that we are convinced, that there can, as to this af-
fair, be no change for the worse. We think, that one
clear benefit would be, to prevent Parsons from 'med-
dling with the matter, in any way whatever. Their
interference leads to endless feuds in country parishes ;1
and, we will venture to say, has done greater injury
to the Church than all the ravings of all the metho-
dist parsons. Why should the clergy dabble in such
matters? And is it possible that such dabbling should
not tend to sink their calling in the eyes of the

people ?
Mr. Huma's motion was:—" That as humble Ad-
" dress be p ed to his Majesty, that be would Ise
" graciously pleased to direst an Inquiry into the state
" of the Government of the lonian Islands ; the causes
" of the general disaffection. and of the numerous ar-
" rests and banishments which have takes place these;
" and for what reason the inhabitants were disarmed,
" and martial law proclaimed." The motion was
lost, there being 67 for it, and 152 against it. The
facts alledged by Mr. Huns are horrible; but, by the
time Al Mr. %rumor had closed his speech, there
were eo many doubts raised, that the bearers must
have become bewildered. The truth is, that if the
Parliament resolve to keep possession of the territories
in question, it must also resolve to support the system
there pursued. It is like the question of the Slave
Trade, which is, in fact, not a question of slavery, or
no slarerp; but a question of sada...cob:ties, or no
sugor.coloxies. The lnnisn Isles serve as the means
of giving part of the taxes away in places awl allow-
ances. The Parliament knows this very well: no-
body better. And, it has the power to cut oir this
mode of applying part of the rests and of the fruit of
labour, when it chooses. As a large part of the charge
is now falling upon rents, we cannot say, that (the
Parliament being unreformed) we have any very great
objections to the charge.—But, besides these consider-
ations, mach attention cannot be expected to matters
of this sort. while we are agitated, as we are,
at home. The fire being in our own house, we
have no time to think much about that which is
consuming oar neighbours. It is such propositions as
thews of Mr. IVrvita. and Mr. WESTIERN that awaken
attention and put the feelings into a stir. " Hest Own
" a drug Doctor, to scare thtse fenditolders heeee"?
say the landlords* to Mr. Hoses, es Macbeth said to
his professional countrymaa about the English army.
" !last thou a drug to get us nuts.' Thy physic to

; we'll nose of it." And, it an'oe-
that Mr. is, with Mr. It,.
CaliDO, for " national faith", and, of course, ags.ust
rents. The lassilords mire much le.s about all ti.e
people in the lonia. Islands than they do about on..
The ielti on at-Norwich, vehicle
took such a large part of the tit bra away to enable the
farmer to pay rent, was of more consequence is their
eyes the. the fate of all the colonies lo the world.
The sight before last, Mr. Peet. made a monk, us
the authority of Mr. LITTLETON, respeetieg the
nese and easy circumstances of the "lobotteers" io
Staffordshire. It came out, however, that these "la-
bourers" were misters! In soother part of out pa-
per of today will lee found (taken from the .llordig;
Chroaicle) a statement of these poor, wretched ea.'
tures themselves. We despi.e their mot about pray-
ing to " God to direct" the magistrates, sad all the
other of that sort of atufZaised in their address;
and, if we could forget 9 Nation of their wives

sents no proof of that "prosperity of maasfactares",,
about which so much has been said. Sir lour itN-
CLAIR says the manufacturers are in a state ri dselise

Manchester? The Cavalry (kedgeree of the 15th of

posis

in England, generally speaking, are better off t►an
they were some years ago. and particularly the la.
boaters in agriculture. There is getting to be less
d;9ereuee between farmer and labourer than there
was ; and God forbid that we should again see a sys-
tem of paper-money, that weald again clone the 'ahoy-
er's mont► against meat. Mr. WitTISIVell proposition

A robbery of all who bare obtained annuities sista
1814. In short, a mease►, of such glaring iniquity
was before thought of; and, we are very sure,
that, when Mr. WLSTIIIN shall see the conseqoeocet,
to which it most inevitably Ind, he will start back
from it with alright. We agree with Lord Lass•
nowxs, that no such thing ought to be done, as boa;
as there exists • "possibility" of the nation's meet-
ing its " most solemn engagements." Aod, that pos-
sibility sever can cease to exist with only the present
taxes; for, though it is, doubtless, desirable, if it coo,
he dose without iniary to the ether classes, that seat
and tithe *head be yielded. yet. there is no mu that
will pretend, that these are absolutely oteteuteryto the
existence of a n mina; much less will say man pretend,
that they ought not to cease, rather than that all the
classes except landlords and parsons should be totally
destroyed. We are aware, we will concede to Mr.
WISTRRN, that the real and tithe must be taken away,
unless Pat" Bill be repealed, or the interest of the
'Debt reduced ; but, it is possible to pay to the full, is
taking these away; and we agree with Lord Lair-
Dowse, that nothing but real "impossibility" to
pay ought to prevent the payment. Were
there a reform of the Parliament indeed the case
would be different; for then, es ery man in
the community would have an opportunity of giving
his assent to any arrangement that insight be pier
posed; and, it is most likely, that mutual sacrifices
would produce aa amicable and just eettlemeat of
things. lint, as such reform appears not to be thought
of by the landlord', we are for the law taking its
coars►, and for holding the landlords to their bowl.
Mr. WISTILAN did not, when at the Essex Meeting,
appear to understand our mewling. ; be will, perhaps,
understand us better now. We have always held the
same language upon the subject : reform sad rani
tion ; no reform no reduction. And, in no case %slat-
ever a repeal of Pest.'s Bill ; became that would be
not only robbery; but robbery with the basest hypo-
• and of the classes least able to bear loss.

Paris papers to the 13th inst. represent the Electiees
for the Departments to be proceeding rapidly, and as
far as the returns have been completed, it is evident
that if the Liberals bare not gained, at least they
hare out lust ground. There was on the 10th agent
" Diplomatic Reunion" at the house of onr Ata'ras'a•
dor, where, it is said, the Ministers of many foreign
powers attended. The ihket of this meeting is sot
explained, but from the manner in which the article
is worded, it would appear that political business and
not pleasure was the cause of its taking place. Ac'
counts from Vienna and even Constantinople, are J-
indecisive as ever. Both the Turks and the Uteri.,
continue to claim the victory in the late naval r..-
gagement, but frJm the retreat, or rather flight
the former, no doubt can be entertained of the advan-
tage having ►emaioed with the latter. 'Die hoist;

at the awful crisis of 1799, succeeded Mr. Arthur
O'Connor as the printer of the most popular sad ably

Mr. Finnerty into perilous coataet with the irritated
and coercive Goverment of that day. It was so or-
dinary predicament is which so young a man, being
then scarcely of age. was placed. Under the process
of the laws as then administered in Ireland. he was vi-
sited with all dm penalties of a vindictive prosecution ;
and the property of the establishment was ultimately
demolished by military force.—On Ms trial he had the
honour of being defended by Mr. Caren, an advocate
whose powers rose with no demands of his country
for their exertion, and who seemed to have been des-
tined to the great but dangerous distinction of dis-
playing talents in the defence of virtue, commensurate
to the wrongs which had called them forth.- In that
Court he charged the 0 went of that day with a

public characters. The sentence was executed also

at Walcberen, and en being made aequalated with it
immediately waited open the naval Commander-in-
Chief. He was received with the greatest kindness,
and after a delay atoms weeks returned to England
in a frigate. Under the irritation of feelings na-
turally excited by such a strange exercise of autho-
rity, he addressed, through this paper, a letter to a
Noble Member of the Administration, who held a
conspicuous place in the recent and melancholy his-
tory of Ireland. reflecting upon his conduct and cha-
racter. That Noble person immediately commenced a
prosecution against the publisher of this journal ; Mr.
Fianerty, who bad been repeatedly warned by the late
Mr. Perry as to the consequences which would result
from the publication of the letter, with the frank
and decision of cliiracter which belonged to him, im-
mediately requested that the manuscript should be
given up, that the prosecution might affect only the
the real author. He allowed judgment to go by

dons which lie had received, as well as the truth
of his allegation. which he n as then prepared with

term of imprisonment that was so rigorously carried
into effect, that his constitution received a shock
from which it never recovered. While is prison, by
an appeal to Parliament, he produced an Inquiry, the
result of which not only led to >i mitigation of his own
sufferings, but to the general atneliorati m of the pri-
son discipline. Oa his liberation, be resumed his du-
ties pith this Paper. His mir.d, naturally strong and
original. was invigorated by an experience of the
world that enabled him, with no common acuteness,
to perceive both the substance and the form of truth,
and detect the sophistries of the most specious imposi-
tion. He had a natural eloquence of a vivid and mas-
culine character, and his colloquial powers were pecu-
liar and fascinating. But his leading characteristic
was as instinctive hatred of oppression, whatever shape
it assumed, or by whatever influence it was attempted
to be enforced. We will Willie° one instance. In
the recent Sta:e Trials, Mr. Finnerty was the indivi-
dual who first discovered that the infamous Thomas
Reynolds, personally unknown to his brother Jurors,
was actually a member of the Grand Jury of the Me-
tropolitan County of England. No sooner was the
fact ascertained, and pending the trials in West-alio.

which it excited throughout the country. From
the original formation of his mind, his unbending
devotedness to the interests of his country, anl hatred
of its oppressors, he had drawn upon himself much po
Iltical hostility, but for that he was amply compen-
sated by having the good fortune to enjoy the proud
distinction of being known to Mr. l-'oi, Mr. Whit-
