LONDON:
TUESDAY, YESRUASY 1, 1820.

This day we have received Paris papers of Sa-
turday, The accounts respecting the suppression
of the Spanish revolt, as given in another part of
our Paper, are still further confirmed. Ferdinand i
must attribute this result, so fortunate to him,
rather to the panic which seems to have pervaded
the ranks of the lnsnrgents, than to the wise and
effective measures of those who remained faithful
to him. It appears, that the snow which covered
Andaln•ia offered the most favourable opportunity
to the revolters of concentrating their strength, and
preparing themselves against the opposition of Ge-
neral Freyre, who was intercepted in his march by
the impassable state of the roads. But want of
union, as well as confidence in their own strength,
afforded an easy victory to their enemy. The
maxim of saute qui pew( seems to be generally
understood among, and practised by the soldiers,
wherever the opportunity occurs.
A public sitting of the Chamber of Deputies was
appointed to take place on Saturday, to receive the
communication of the Minister of Finance, upon the
project of the Law on Ways and Means.
The King transacted business on Friday with
the Minister of War. The Duchess of Bourbon also
paid her respects to his Majesty.

The Duke de Crillon died on the 27th ult. at
Paris, aged 71 years: he had been a Member of
the Constituent Assembly.

After !laving said what was proper, and ie a
opinion necessary, upon the recent melandli
event, we resume the subject of general affairs ■
general expectations.

Upon the personal virtues of his late Majestyi
hope and trust we have spoken as become us: au
are more sensible than ourselves of their beneala
influence upon society: the good example of
Sovereign is more likely to be imitated by his peal
than one of an opposite character. We hare a
thought proper to fall into that servile cotes
ascribing every desirable public and private gad
to the good King, in the view of ingratiating 01
selves with those who are nearest in °ennui
to the Crown. To describe his Majesty as ose
the greatest Princes of this or any age—as baj
raised the renown and the fortune of the es*
beyond all reasonable hope; and to premixing
long period of his reign as made up of an anise
rupted series of halcyon days, is such a gross a
of the proper gravity of history, and such fan
clattery, that whatever allowance we may aW
for the operation of self-interest, we are at a k
for the motive of so doing. It can be no 0)1
mendable compliment to his successor. Diets
painters, not without skill, may represent t
object of their pencil in very different colonial
attitudes, and, though without deviating pit
from the original one, may produce Wiens
more attractive than the other. JusalfailVit

Half-pest Bettis o'clock.

JAM. 29.—This day, a Meeting was held at
Morrison'•, of " The Friends of South Anterican Inde-
pendence," for the pnrpose of instituting an inquiry into
the various circumstances connected with the expedition,
which sailed from this country for Marearitta, with a
view of proceeding from thence to the Main, in order to
join the armies under General Bolivar.
Before two o'clock, Morrison's Great Room was
crowded to excess, and about half-past two, after winch
preliminary discussion, Sir Frederick Flood, who de-
clined taking the Chair himself, moved Mr. Finlay, the
barrister, into the Chair, which being seconded by Mr.
O'Connell, barrister, was carried in the affirmative.

Mr. O'Con NELL, in a speech of considerable length
and great ability, addressed the Meeting. Ile, in the
course of his speech, read a letter from Captain Lang-
son, of the Irish Legion ; another from Captain Par—
sons, nephew of Lord Bosse, dated Margaritta, 13th of
November, including an Address from the Field Officers,
of the Irish Legion, to Admiral Brion, highly compli•~
=emery to the latter, and signed by William Aylmer,
Colonel of the Ist Regiment of Lancers, cmomanding
the Irish Legion, by I,iettt.-Colonels Burke and De-
renzy, Majors Bournes and Clinton, &e. These docu-
ments went to show that the authority of lieneral D'Eve-
rem: was fully recognised, that the Legion was acting
as a corps, with officers and men, doing duty and ready
for service, and that an embargo had been actually laid
on the port preparatory to their sailing for the

HIS LATE MAJESTY.

The following anecdotes respecting his late Majesty,
for the accuracy of which, however, we do not feel our-

THE SECOND COURT OF HIS MAJESTY KING
GEORGE THE FOURTH.
-olim--

Yesterday, at half-past ten o'clock, a Guard of Honour,
preceded by the hand of the Coldstream Regiment of
I:oorliuserfs, merehed into the Court-yard of the King's
Palace in Pall-mall. Soon after, a detachment of the
Life °nerds arrived in Pall-mall and Waterloo-place,
opposite the Palace. The extraordinary serenity of the
weather seemed an suspicions omen to the commence-
ment of the reign of our illustrious Monarch, and
rol-
Ireted together an immense concourse of people round
the Palace and streets adjacent ; the windows of the
houses were filled with elegantly dressed company, to
view the procession, and hear the proclaiming his Ma-
jesty King of the United Kingdom of Orem Britain,
Ike. There were also assembled—
:4k Nathaniel Conant, the Chief ,Magistrate of the
Police, with Townsend, Sayer, and a numerous assem-
Wage of Police Officers, the Gentlemen Porters, the
Livery Servants in their State Liveiies, and the Porters
at the Oates, with their Orand Sashes and Staffs.
The distinguished personages assembled to *Athena
this important event, were—
' Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of York, de Duke
and Duchess of Clarence, the Duke of Mow-ester, Prince
Leopold, the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Duke of
Alontrose, the Duke of Wellington, the Marquis of
liertfori. the Marquis of Cholsoondeley, Earl Bottum.
the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl of Murave, Earl Cath-
cart. Viscount Sithisouth, Viscount Melville, Mr. Can-
ning. Mr. W. DaatlßS, Mr. T. Wallace, the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, Sir John Nicholl, Mr. Wellesley
Pole, Mr. Beckett, the Lord Chancellor, who appeared
in his fall robes, holding the Seals of Ureat Britain in
the State Purse, and the Vice t hancellor, &r.
Precisely, at twelve o'clock, a royal salute was fired
in St. James's Park, announcing the Accession of I
tteorge the Fourth to the Throne of England. At the
same time, the above distinguished personages haring as-
sembled under the portico of the grand entrance to the '
Palmer, and being all unrorerrd, the (tarter King at
Arms appeared in the full and splendid dress of Isis
Office, on the right of his Royal Highness the Duke of ,
York, holding his superb Arial staff, and the Procla- '
mation agreed upon by his Majesty in Council, on Sun-
day, which he read aloud, and the concluding sentence
of God save the Kixff was heartily repeated by the
Royal and distinguished personages surrounding him.
Immediately after the reading of the Proclamation, the
trumpets and trombones, to the number of twenty,
played the Jubilee March ; the trumpeters were habited
n their splendid gold lace dresses, and preceded by
John Host. F.sq., the Deputy Serjeaot Trumpeter; after
which, the Band of the (hard of Honour ',laved " Uod
save the King," and, at its conclusion, the drums and
fifes only played " King Oeorge's March." During the
performance of the shove national music, the whole of
the military, both horse and foot, presented arms, ac-
companied by repeated shouts of " tiod save the King !"
with the waving of their swords, &c.; and the immense
concourse of people, who seemed impatient to evince
the ebullition of their feelings, joined simultaneously in
the patriotic shout, with such well-tinted precision, that
a fugletuan could not more effectually have directed
their spontaneous rejoicings. These reiterated acclama-
tions were accompanied by the waving of hats and hand-
kerchiefs, and every other demonstration of joy which,
they could evince towards our present beloved- Monarch.,

' . is said to be a difference of opinion in the
~ •act. Some particular occurrences seem to in-
bate a nearly equal division of the Members ; of
fie, nothing certain can be known.
ii late Majesty was quite as unconscious of ap-
"aching dimlution as if lie were sinking only to
1 -..tie and quiet slumber ; death had no terrors
"'
tibia He did not speak for two hours before his
wawa The last words he tittered, consisted
4 a short question upon a subject of no import-
ing" He then lay perfectly quiet and still—not
iris escaped him—and not the least indication
ironing reason, not a ray of mental sanity,
srsie through the last moments of his life. The
Deka York remained by the bedside till the last
restb had passed away.
The three longest reigns in British history are
tied three Kings, each the third of their ye-
spotive names. Henry 111. reigned .5G years ; Ed-
wird 111. 51: and George 111. 59.
The anxiety which his late Royal Highness the
Odor of KENT felt for the discharge of his debts,
imbed him to insure his life at the different offices
to Life Assurance, he paying the annual premium
oast his income; and thus we have reason to be-
that every shilling of debt which he owed
duo* be fully discharged.

to be eighty years of age.

On Saturday afternoon. at thirty-tine minutes past
eight o'clock,- our late Must Gracions Sovereign King
George the Third, %those strength had cradually de-
clined for some weeks, expired without the least ap-
parent suffering, at his Castle of Windsor, in the eighty-
,' corns year of his age, and the sixtieth of his reign.
No Sovereign ever possessed in a higher degree the ve-
neration and affection of his subjects, and their grief
'or his loss is only abated by the unhappy malady, which
has precluded his Majesty from directing the measures
of his Government during the aims latter years' of his
glorious reign.
Upon the news of this melancholy event arriving in
London, the Lords of the Privy Council assembled yes-
terday at Carlton House, and gave orders for proclaim-1
;ng his present Majesty, who made a most gracious
Declaration to them, maa caused all the Lords and others
of the late King's Privy Council, who were then present,
u be sworn of his Majesty's Privy Council.
And this day, about noon, his i%lajety was proclaimed ;
first before Carlton House, where the Ofhcers of State,
Nobility, and Privy Councillors, were present, with the
Officers of Arms, all being on foot. Then the Officer*
being mounted on horseback, the like was done at
han ng-Cross, within Temple-Bar, at the end of Wood-
street, in Cheapsiele, and lastly mt the Royal Exchange,
with the usual solemnities.
[Here follows the Proclamation or Declaration of
Fealty, which appeared in Tax STATISMAN of yes-
terday.]

PCB' L' REI•'URM MEETING is NEWI

TL E.

[Mx CHRONICLI.]
In pursuance of a Resolution passed at a Meeting di
the Gentlemen who signed the Requisition to the Shyer,
after his Worship had refused to comply therewith, a
public Meeting was advertised fur Wednesday last by
the Requisitionists themselves, to be hoick* in thel
Great Room at the Turk's Head. One of the largest'
and most respectable assemblies we ever witnessed on a•
similar occasion took place accordingly—the room being'
in a few minutes completely cruu sled. A little before;
one o'clock, the Requisionists ascended a temporary)
hustings which had been prepared for them ; when
Dr. Ilsaottu moved, that C. W. Rim, Esq. should
take the Chair, which was seconded by Mr. Lush, and
carried with great applause.
Mr. Boma, as Chairman, then read the reqoisition,
which was received with cheers. As soon as they gab?
sided, he said, before be stated further the object for
which they were assembled, he could not but eipress
his deep regret that any thing should have occurred
to prevent them meeting in the place where they usually
met, and that the Chair in which he was then placed,
was not occupied by I whose rank and station ren-
dered him the most appropriate person to fill it. But
much as he lamented the conduct of the Chief Magi-I
%trate in refusing to comply with a requisition so nu-
merously and respectably signed, he thought it rigid to
state that be considered that conduct to have originated
in the most pure and honest motives, and a conscien-
tious belief that, by so refusing, he was best dischargtdg
his pnblic duty. They were assembled to take into coo-
sideration the propriety of proitioning for a /Worm In
the Commons House of Parliament. The nocemitybf
thus petitioning, and the nature of that Reform, wooed
be explained by his lion. Friend, who would propose
the Remillition. He bad only to beg, that in any oh-1
servations which might he addressed to the ineetint.l
the speaker, would strictly adhere to the %eject of the
reqnisition, and that any opinions advaiwei might be
received with that attention and candour which might
always to mark the conduct of the friends of free, dis-
cussion.
Mr. loan--In consequence of the honourable situ-,
lion in which he hail here placed, it became his duty tel
propose certain re‘oltitions with a view to the ohjees el
the meeting. Before he read them, he beefed t-, offer
a few remarks open the subject of Perliamentery Re-
form, awl upon the plans which its advocates supported.
In order to see the necessity of a Reform in the COM-
nions' Home, it was necessary to considei what is the
mode in which that House is constituted—aryl what are
the advantages derived from it. That House ought, and
to be of practical use, must be. a Representation of the
opinions and feelings of the people—and if this be true
iu theory (as undeniably it is) it ought to be the casein
practice. It Me look at other countries anti times,
through all airs, and in every part of the world, we see
Emperors, Liege, Judges—every thing but the Repre-
sentation of the people. What is the consequence ?
Why, that in such countries there is no union between
the people and their rulers. In such States there mast
always lie perpetual jarring amid discord ; and the gni-
rioas invention of a Representative Constitution, the
only means of overcooling these difficulties, has there;
fore distinguished this country far above every other—+
has given it strength and vigoor to perform the most
splendid deeds, as has been particularly manifested in tile
progress and termination of the late war, and above all has
enabled it to bear the present enormous height of taxatimi.
Ile should next advert to the fact, that the House is sot
the pure Representative of the people. Is say•m=
rant that the majority are returned he the inflat
the Crown or other undue means? if tfiiehe true, on.
there not to he a Reform ? And can it be a emitter
doubt that many are elected for places which have
cave.!, where the franchise is in the bands of a few i
vianals--aud that even in some places the electors ire
fewer than the elected? Can this be right? linpoasibiet
With regard to the origin of the Representative brands,
it is a matter of much more importance to the country to
determine whit it ought to be, than what it was: but it
is quite clear that the Members must have been elect's'
by persons olio possessed property and were free. With
respect to counties, it would be as improvement NM
the elective franchise mole widely extended. Is it nos
salable that the great county of York should send only
two Members, *bile Old Sarum sends the same num-
ber ? Can this practice be reconciled to any principle
whatever ? Another great object in view was the shorts
ening the uration of Parliaments; the necessity of
which was °Moils on the ground of utility and original
practice. It was imprudent and Improper to delegate
se high a trust for semen years. The reason why that
period was adopted was a temporary reason ; the Sep-
teunial Bill was passed to answer a particular purpose,
-wed Was newer intended to be a permanent law. Ball
when it was owe carried, it was found to be ton eons*
Diem an engine of Government to he repealed ; it hail
therefore remained, notwithstanding it ought to WWI
been repealed when the cirenmstatices which gave oath.
-Mon for it ceased,—These were the objects prepaid/
•te be promoted by the Meeting ; and if these were
'gained, almost ell that was requisite would he acquired:
.It.seemed to him, that in discussing this question, the*
lad been too much violence and dogmatism. Their

-salons (on* or two hisses were heard). He i tett a
difference of opinion ; the question was open for argu-
ment. He was going on to state his objections to secre•
cy in elections—it would degrade the character of a free
people—it would be doing in secret what ought to he
dose openly. He, as a freeman, would exercise his right
in the face of the world; his vote should not be given
with a white or a black ball, but in broad day ; he would
speak freely without being afraid, and do right and not
be ashamed. The ballot would lead to bribery, cor-
ruption, and other abuses—he would call it a source of
perpetual entailing corruption. The candidate might
say to a voter " you may do this with great safety; it
will be wholly between ourselves; no one else will
know it, and Here's something for you."—llaving taken
the money, he must vote according to his promise, and
so be guilty of bribery; or vote according to his con-
science, and contrary to his profession, and so be guilty
of falsehood. Thus perjury or bribery would be the result.
Before he read the Resolutions, he would advert to the
objections which had been urged against Parliamentary
Reform. They had been told, that to attempt It was
dangerous, rash and innovating. But are we the inno-
vators who wish to restore and improve? Nu; thew
are the innovators who render Reform necessary. Th.e
Reformers are accused of rashness. Is it rash and dan-
gerous to follow Lord Chatham, who held that it was
essential for the well-being of the country'? Were they
for this to he branded as idle speculatists ? His son,
William Pitt, he to whose example the present Ministers
profess to look up, even be set oat with being a Re-
former ; and he (Mr. Loeb) had good reason to believe
that that person, of whom Ile sue could speak but
as of an extraordinary man, died iu the opinions of
his early life, and that be always believed Re-
form to be necessary. His objections were, that it
was not a suitable time—it was not convenient.
—The opinions of Mr. Fox were of more value,
not only on this, but on all other political subjects.—
They were the more important, as they hail grown up
with him. In early life, his cunteart was guided by
different seutiments, bat as he advanced in years, he ad-
vanced in knowledge; his wundertul intellect expanded,
and he burst the boudage of family itilluence and acci-
dental associations. So much for the charge of rashness
and the apprehension of danger. .Inother argument
still more futile his been advanced. It is said, a Re-
form may be necessary, by Mr. Canning fur instance,
the great
.Ministerial organ, but that the lietOrmers
have no right to it. because they cannot agree g
themselves—the abuses toast rental:l, because they can-
not exactly agree as to a reowoy. lie would say
to that Right Hoooarable timaileinan, let us take away
those abuses that you admit to eist. Jilit no, he replies;
vou shall h lye nothing till you agree upon eery thing.

are all extremely futile, and easy to be A.lt•t%ere.l. lint the
