T.IE STATESMAN

THE LICENSING SYSTEM.

Yesterday a num eeeee Sad rrispottahle bleating of
Licensed Victuallers took place at she Frermaissooe
Tavern, for the portinso of petitioning Parliament
against the present arbitrary and oppresaire system of
licensing.

L.,T T
pen law motion at Mr. Wwwita, Mr. CLAIM
was called in the Chair.

Mr. SMITR proposed a string of Rinelotions, en
which the Pesition was to be grounded.
Mr. Srrest ems seconded the. linolotions, is doing
which, he said, the Licensed Victuallers were be-
yond comparison the most oppressed etas, of trades-
men in society ; but if they once asserted their
equality wills other respectable CIMPP, the best of
their oppressors would necessarily disappear. He
admired that line in the old song, " Vatting never I
wilt he Slaves;" bet the patient spirit of the Licensed;
Victealler rendeted • clause necessary, escleding
them front the character of iodependence. The pro. i
party Ts: had been taker, elf •Ifectrsity from all
descriptions of men trot the Licensed Victualler, on
whom it still conlinin-d to operate in the ship' of a
Double I • ; and it was owing to their timidity
that so abominable an imposition remained "Ton
them. Ile had been advised by a neighbour not to
interfere upon • subject of sects importance as the,
present, in the apprehension that • vindictive spirit.

reprobated, and whose power was formidable In
the Pa/f.111•, *field be exercised to his proje-
dire. Bet he thought that one of the most pow.
errel reasons for his interposition, ender the
idea that the Licensed Victeallets should show
that they were not the degraded persons they
were represented to be. The absence of all pro-
tective of properly had raised against them a host
of enemies, whose object was to wrest that property
from then., and the united efforts of the trade were
necessary to remove the power. The Petition was
for • redress of gri , to which they were sob-
jars in consequence of the discretionary power of the
Magistrates to refuse Licences without assigning rea-
sons for doing so. Ile spoke of the principle, for he
knew there wore many highly honoorsble characters
amongst the Magistrates, who would be ashamed to
engage in such cowardly transertious as they had
reason to deprecate and lament. Ile called it coward-
ly to take away a Licence without giving a reason,
for it was so less than stabbing a man in the dark.—
("Ipplasse.)—lf it could he proved that the Licensed
Victualler kept • disorderly house be should suffer
by law, and sot be the victim of an individual's
caprice.

Mr. Ilcs.s. reprobated the ...duct of the propel..
tors of gin-shops.
Mr. fectivt.*Es said, it was Impossible for any
contemplative person to be insensible to the great
importance of the object for which the Meeting was
convened, which so materially effected the interests
of such a respectable body as the Licensed
Vie-
tsallers— • class of men, of all others, the most en-
titled to the consideration of the Public, sod to the
most free and ample means of carrying on their busi-
ness foe the gement service of the comments,; for
the Meeting must be aware that the ordinary trans-
acti ns of men could not be lastly conducted

an asylums to the traveller, who occasionally attest.

the respectability of a Victualler bad been diminished
by the arbitrary centres' of varies. Brewers, Spirit.
dealers, and Magistrates, whose measures had re-
diced many an honest Vlllealler to the abject coodi-
lion of a slave. In prooT of Ibis assertion he should
refer to the printed Report of the Committee of the
Ileum of Commons, which appeared to be alluded to
lin the Resolutions which he bad beard reed. As an
Englishman he could not endure to see Magistrates
usurping the privileges of • Jury—to see one corrept
individual invested with the power of It honest men
—and last of all could he adore that Victuallers
should be selected as the only persons fit to be
abridged of their natural freedom of trade. He should
advise Victeallers to insist open being placed on an
asel footing with other persons in trade, in order
that they might carry on their business where it should
be most ient to them, without being setiject to
the arbitrary contrail of any man. Ile said he had
carefelly attended to the Resolutions as they were
reed ; bet perceiving that nothing was said on the
subject of giving • freedom of trade to the Victual-
ler, be would submit the following motion to the
Meeting :—" That in the opinion of this Meeting,
it is essentially necessary to theeccrownodatioa of the
Public, that a Victualler should be Sassed to carry
on his business in any heves convenient for that per-
pose."
Mr. HoLues called the attention of the Meeting
to the Wilma esorcised by the Magistrates, sod
over the Magistrates, which, if it was sot removed,
would render any legislative masers Ineffectual. The
dangerous authority to which he alluded was that of
she Brewers.—(*skssue.)—lie saw one ladivWeal
(Mr. Meek), who was a deplorable instaisce of the
bad policy of allowing that influence to @Mat, and
described the guffawing' of that individual, which
arose from his determisation to leave his Brewer.
It appeared that the loss of limas immediately fol-
lowed the discharge of the Brewer, and rein was the
consequence. Ho also spoke of the houses owned
by the Biewers, end said, he was convinced that the
respectable Brewers despised the principle, and would
mach rather be iestrieted hem purchasing freeholds
thee enter into a competitiesi of capitol by such a
system. The Inevitable malt of the practice was,
that the quality of the article of consemplioss
became deteriorated; and in some instances even
the quantity was not supplied.—(Cries of •"lio
free.") It was a diesdfel thing to be ender
the fangs of a merciless Brewer, or a corrupt Ma-
gistrate. If the efforts of the body were net di-
reefed against that evil, they could but "Scotch the
snake, net kill it." Oat of four thousand two

stances of the abuse of the power pos...sed by the
Brewers, one of which was that of a Victualler al
whose house a Candidate for a seal in Parliament en.-
tertained his friends. The Brewer ordered that the
300 persons who diced and drank there, should no
longer he admitted, and suit In en etecetion upon the
refusal of the Publican. The Candidate look net

the Magistrates hail this despotic controul. The prin-
ciples of some Brewers tees, he said, nether)/ less than

Meek's ease, and repressed a hope that that ',jetted
man would receive assistance from the body, and he
mentioned to the Meeting that Mr. Lem!, olio to prea
sent a Petition from Aim to the House of Commons
that night.—(Greta Applarm )
Mr. SCHULTIS again presented himself, end rea
quested that the Resolution which he had peppered
sboold be submitted to the Meeting; upon which ho
was asked, if he was a Licensed Virtealler ? Upon
his replying In the negative, he was informed by the
CIIAIRMAN, that on that t the Resolution meld

with which he had commenicatsd his sentimeuts, bet
requested him not to press his motion.
The Regolotions were agreed to, and the Petition
to both Moses of Parliament, which was an echo of
them, was onanimoely adopted.
Mr. WHITIRO proposed the Thanks of the Meete
