when be agreed to tall a meeting, he certainly ought to
discharge the duty he bad undertaken with propriety
and impartiality.--(Hear.)—He contended that '
Sheriff who prsalded et a meeting, who took on hi'
tv roofer Order and regularity, and did not do his duty
honestly and impartially. defrauded the people of their
just right.--(Heir.)—Viewing it in that liana, they

he. on AA:right, the condnet of those who de.
'Seed additional power under the bills which imposed
those restraints, ought to be narrowly watched. The
light of petitinn frisedois it wasieg was emientiathe• life-blojl to the enjoyment of
constitutional ; d of the
eauntry. He must apologise to the House fiar speaking
thus warmly. It did not, however, arise from the im-
pulse of the nininent. On the contrary, his sentiments
were the result of•all that be bad ever heard or read on
the snhject, which led hiu, to consider the right of peti-
Orting as the noblest right tb: people, could enjoy.—
Maar, hear.) • ' , .
Mt. R. WILBRAHAM eat(' no map could be a
;trouser advocate titan hiMaelf for the perfect enjoy-
-, trent of the right of petitioning by the people; and be
**ought it was.the bounden ditty of the house to take
notice of the conduct of spy olticer who attempted to
interfere -with the exercise of that right. But whet was
this isolated cases This. Sheriff. when reqoested to
call a meeting, Ciainplied with 4epanquisition. He pre-
sided at the meeting: .as, be would maintain it was his
deity to do at all county nmetldgp for: he would not
eloar that it was a afire matter serseleart-sy to stiffer the
Sherif to preside at leaesting in his tnen county. As
to the conduct of the Sheriff, the matter was at issue
between his Hon. Friend the member for Cheshire. and
the Hon. member who spoke last. If the Sheriff acted
partially, be admitted that he subjected himself to con-
iere ; but whether he could be visiteo by the measure of
the house, was another question. This Noble Lord
steed that he 'lid not know what his opinions were—but
he e, wed to jtulge of them from ?ether a carious cir-
cumstance —namely, that lie was a member of a yeoman.
re corps. But, would he say, because Karl Fitswil-
Kam, and many other individuals of high rank, were
in.anbetre cry yeomanly corps, that therefore they were
setached W the preseut admistration ? (Lord Bel rave,
torus, the table—e" the corps were newly.. raised.")—
(liestr.beer.)—Por. his own part be could not see the Oh.
• Weetion which the Noble Lord endeavoured to draw.—
He (Mr. Wilbraham) was not acquainted with the Sheriff;
• i t nelerstood him to be a young, man, independent
in principle as he was in fortuoe. He committed biro-
s
• ..• • Bark no expression of political opiniun; and no person
. h-mrw, till that day, when it was alleged that he had
lope • &VC!) appointed to a yeomanry corps, whether he was the
'• snplwrter or the opponent of the measure of government.
It the lion. usetnber considered the Sheriff to be Sc-
,. motairlo for any noise that might happen to be made,
lie nes visiting him with a great deal more than he bad
a right to bear.—(Hear, hear.)—There would, necessa-
rily, hinted, difference of opinion at assemblies of this
•e • velure. They had heard a great deal of a meeting in
the eounty of Kent, from which an unfortunate man
....Vito:Alley were informed, was a naval half-pay officer,
. . Joe the purpose, as it should seem, of denying that per.
gong in his situation ought to express a political opt-
mon) wide ;Acuity escaped with his life, because his
eeutbnents were at variance with those supported by the
treat body of the persons present. But the Noble Lord
'slid that the confusion at the Chester Meeting was
3created by respectable persons. Now, it wee reported
.Al.at, in a. grave deliberative assembly, on a recent Gees-
. .oisse, hisses and noises of that description were resorted
to byeeetein individuals. This showed how difficult it
• • n as, when persons were led away by their feelings, to
••••1 panne a moderate line of conduct. Persons. ender thei
. • 'tsWierare of their feelings, often said and did things of''
• ,s•lsich they were afterwards ashamed.—(Hear,
t• sg..licalid not think the House could take any steps with
~„‘„asalenenee to tine prayer of that Petition. It certainly
would be most unjust to proceed with only part of the
rise before them, when, if time were given, the allege.'
Lions might be wholly disproved.
•• • •"" ;Air. ROM( WOOD said the bon. member hail not
• ; ?.: ;hated correctly what bad occurred at the Kent m.'eting.
He (Mr. Honywood) had hewer said that the individual
•.• ••allielel to lead been ill-treated. Hs was applauded by
amine persons, in the bottom of the hall, as a bold and
~coorageone man. He left_ the hall, in company with a
. Jeohle friend of his (Mr. Honywood), and was hissed as
be paned along. his was all the indignity that had
•:• '; h•tin shown to him. As it seemed rather curious that
••- there shOuld be oalyone person opposed to the proceed-
ing*, he (Mr. Honywood) inquired who he was, and he
found that he was not a naval °three, as the hon. Gentle-
toan had stated, but an officer of the waggon-train. He
conceived that a ball-pay officer bad as mach right to
express his opinion as an officer on fall pay. Every
snan had a right to manifest his opinion, be his station
high or low.
Mr. CREKVEY said, the sheriff having been request-
e4l`to call lmeeting, atul having complied with that re-
• • quest, anti an ainendueent being proposed at tbe meet-
ing by, Earl tirosvenor, the matter for consideration
;was, did he effete to put that amendment, or did he put
',II in the nerative? If be did, there certainly was no

• to the bar of the bons--a proposition which, if the no-
• ble lord or some other honour/Ma member did not intro.
2 • lett, he would himself submit to the honse.—(Hear,
....)teir.),--The hon. gent. (Mr. Wilbraham) had alluded—
. bow pmdratly he would not inquire—to a scene which-
took place in that house at the close of the lost session

of the right of.petitioit if such proceeding,' were h be
permitted to pass without receiving the censure of the
Elonse. If indeed sheriffs were to he invested with
this power, there miss no necessity whatever for emery-
:4,lg the right uf public ;netting. by the late hills; for,
subject to such centrool as hal been etercised by the
:sheriff, the right of assecubliug county wettings Wall a
'mere nullity.—(tlear).
Mr. BOOTLE' WILBRAHAM explained.
Mr. STUART WORTLEY said that the requisition
to convent, the meeting (as lie understood) was merely
to address the King, and upon that an anwudment was
moved. Noir as the avowed object of the meeting iyas
not to Petition 'Parliament, he could not see how the
conduct of the Sheriff iu this instance could he said to
affect their yrivilee; ••. When he said this, he begged.
at the same time not to he understood as sanctioning any
partial interference of a High Sheriff, at any public
meeting. A person filling so high an office ought to
abandon the influence of private political ,seatinients
while iu the discliar;re of his public hear,)
and upon all proper and reasonable occasions afford an
opportunity to the freeholders of expressitig their sett-
timents. —(hear, hear.)
Lord BELURAVE explained that the High Sheriff of
Chester had the command of a corps of Yeomanry em-
bodied soon after the 16th of August. 1619. Be merely
mentioned this because at the period to which he al-
luded the same care was Liken in making these appoint-
ments that was now taken among the professors of ex-
clusive loyalty in keeping every thing for thesnselves.
To the High Sheriff of Chester he had no personal ob-
ection ; be imputed to him no motives s but merely re
-
lated a plain fact—he had refused lb put an amendment
which was prepared at the...ranting, and equally. de-
clined to discuss its relevancy to the business of the day.
The conduct of the Sheriff led to *protest on the part of
several gentlemen who were present, which his Lord-
ship then proceeded to read.
A MENVIII. whose name we could not learn, ex-
pressed his great respect for the privileges of the
people which enabled them to appru tch either Par-
liament or the Crown with the expression of their
sentinimit6. At the sclie time he could not concur in
the propriety of bringing the High Sheriff of a
County to the Bar of that House on a charge such as
that made in the present Petition, without any pre-
vious inre.tigation of the circumstances of the case.
The Petition was then brought up. Ou the motion
that it be read,
Mr. CREEV EY observed, that if the facts which
bad bee:e stated by the Noble Lord and others were
true, an act of decided hostility had been committed
against the privileges of the people. He really
thought the Noble Lord ought to proceed with the
business. He (Mr. Creevey) would look into the
Journals and see what had been done on similar °ces-
sions; but that something ought to be dune lie felt
quite sure.
Lord BELORAVE said he should be sorry to press
so important a motion as to call the High Sheriff to
the Bar without due consideration. As to the cir-
cumstances of the ease, be was within a yard and a
half of the Sheriff's Chair duriug the whole of the
proceeding. and was quite ready to bring forwara
such evidence as would completely
.substantiate the
.allerrattbns of the Veiltioners:;---(Illear, hear.)
flee Petition was then read and ordered to be
printed.
Mr. DENMAN said, lie bad that rucrning received
by posy, a Petition from an individual who was en-
tirely unknown to him. The Petition was signed Wil-
liam M'l)uugall. It stated, that the Petitioner had
been taken up in the streets of Ghent. and put into
prison, under a charge of having presented a fake
letter of credit from a banking-house iu Scotland—
that he was refused to be put into possession of the
name of his accuser, and deprived of the means of his
defence.
A MEMBER asked whether he had applied to any
of the English Authorities in Flanders?
Mr. DENMAM said, he understood !the Petitioner
applied to Lord Claucarty, who, under all the circum-
stances, declined to make any representation to the
Goverinent.—Tlse Petition was ordered to lie ou the
Table.

LONDON BRIDGE.
Mr. Alderman WOOD gave notice that on Monday
nest be would move for the appointment of a Select
Committee on London Bridge.

tiFAV POST-OFFICE.
Mr. GORDON rose to ask whether the intention 01
hoildifig the New Pro-Office had been abandoned; awl
if an, how the Anal of Two Hundred and Eighty Thou-
se nl Plinnek _ranted for that purpose was disposed of?
Mr. HUNK ISSON said, that the rant was made for
two objects —nee for improving' the city ; that object
bad been ohteioed ; though a larger sum had teen ex-
pended than was at first anticipated.
Colonel DAVIES wished to know whether a sum of
280,000/. bad been expended in pulling down some old
houses.
Mr. WILLIAMS expressed his surprise at hearing
the lion. Gentleman say that the City had been im-
proved, be denied that there was the slightest improve-
ment effected, or that by the pulling (lowa of those
homes a single avenue was opened between one part
of the City and another. All the improvement that
was visible was, that some old houses were pulled
down, and railings erected instead of them.
Colonel DAVIES wished to know whether the
ground was to be left waste, or whether it was
intended to build a Post Office, or any other houses
upon it
iII'SKISSON said, that by pulling down the
old lonises o great uaisance had been abated ; the open
space, he contended, was au improvement. •
Mr. HARVEY read from the Orders in the mouth
of July last, the proceedings, by which it appeared
that no yes, than 50 Notices ‘many of them very im-
portant) bad been disposed of in one night, and 36 ou
Imother. The Hon. Gentleman deprecated the manner
in which business bad been delayed in the commence-
nwkot of the Session, and pressed on at its close, with-
oneatuy inquiry or examination of any kintl.—(hear.)
He hoped that some step would be taken to prevent so
great an inconvenience.
Mr. lIUSKISSON begged the lion. Gentleman to
recollect that the last Session of Parliament did nut
open until the month of April.
Mr. CALCRAFT said the Hon Gentleman knew that
during every Session of Parliament in which lie sat iu
that House, the same grievance had existed.
W tYS AND MEANS.
Oa the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX-
CHEQUER, the House resolved into a Committee of
Ways and Means. The Right Hon. Gentleman stated,
thatain the year LBl6 several ditties bad bees laid on
Foreign Spirits, and which duties were to continue for
a space of live years ; that period would expire ou the
sth of July next. His object was to renew those du-
ties for the space of one year. His object in propos-
ing the annual continuation of those duties was, to
keep them, as it were, constantly under the view of
Parliament. because by that means Parliament would
be enabled to see whether smuggling was checked in
its progress or increased. It appeased that the actual
consumption of foreign spirits had been on the in-
crease for the last two years, by which it appeared
that smuggling had not increased, but had been check-
ed within that period. he was sure that the House
would agree with Ilium, that there was no more proper
object of taxation than that of foreign spirits, whether
with a view to the encouragement of our agriculture,
or with a slew to the health and morals of the people.
The next object he had, was one more of form than
substance—it was, that the vote of five millions on the
Aids of 1820, should be applied towards the Supply
of 1821; this would enable the Treasury to apply that
sum in the must convenient manner. The Right Hon.
Gentleman concluded by moving a resolution, that the
duty of Is. per bushel on Malt made in Great Britain,
granted by aim Act of the last Session, to expire on the
sth of July. 1821, should be further continued. On
the resolution being put,
Mr, CREEVEY said, that he did not oppose the
Speaker leaving the Chair, because he did not under-
stand that any grant was intended to be proposed in
the Committee, lie now rose to oppose the motion
for Supply brought under coasideratios, and would',
move as an amendment, that the Chairman do report
progress. Time House could not easily forget the ex-
pressions which had been made within its walls last
night, the statements of grievances from persons of
all dateriptions—from the agricultural and commer-
cial interests, and above all, from that once great and
flourishing Town of Birmingham.—(her, hear, hear.)
—The conversation which took place on the Petition
from that place, called forth opinions and declarations
which no man ever ventured before to make in that
Honse.-.{hear, hear.) An lion. Gentleman, a Lay
Member, and a most resretahle Genttsman in the
Country. proposed an attack un the Funded Property
of the Country.---(llear, bear.)---He called the Fund-
holder a mossier. Another Hon. Member, a friend saf
his (Mr. C.'s) hailed the attack on the Fundliolder,
, and slimed great anxiety, as he said himself, to be at
it.---(Hear and laughter.) The Right lion. Gentleman
(the Chancellor of the Exchequer) laughed. Ile
(Mr. Grocery) would wish to know what Mr. Pitt
would have said if he bad lived to hear such sentiments
I avowed in that House? But what did those
declarations prove? They proved the monstrous dis-
tress under whieh the Country laboured---distress so
great as to prepare one part of the community to
go to war with the other for the possession mgt
Its property--(hear, hear, her.)----and yet in this
deplorable state nothing in the way of relief was even
hinted at by Government—they heard no plan for the
amelioration of distress—night after night they had
before them the old story of Committees of Supply and
Ways and Means; bat they beard nqt one word about
