TU9 MPLOYlEIN of the POOR.-At a IMETING lLA held ae the goyai Exqbange, on Wednesday the 22d 9ecember I *The Right Flon. the LORP MAVORIn toe hair; The followitng reolut ons were passed unnhanously:- Resolved, That the peasantry of Ireland are insuffielently provided with foodi clothing, and to.fel that they are miserably lodged, and that unless n teasures adequate to their perimanient relief be devised, thoIr conditions Is likely,to become vet more precarions anddistreseing. Resolved,That, this zellet can only be afderdefd by supply1ng employ. menlt on an extensive scale. Resolved, Thiat for thisW purpose agricalture alon.e Is found to be In- sufficient, and it therefore becomes necesaary to tarn our views to tie introduction of manufactures, the promot on of commerce, and to our maines and tlsherles. Resolved, That Ireland yields to no other country In aetual advan.- tages; that It is capable of supportla itts popufatlon in a degree of comfort equal to that enjoyed bythe labouriDgelansssof England, and that nothing seerns wanting but thefairdevelopment oPhor resources to accomplish an object sodesi-able. Resolved, That she abounds in stroams or water applicable to mill. work, and that in thecheapnoss of provislons and the wages of labpur, there are Peculiar Inducements to eapitalists to look to this colntry for the proiltable Inv6stment of their capital. Resolvod. That Ireland has. been already nearly deprived, by tbo machifnery Of England, of her hand-.'innintg of worsted, and that If machizery ba not soon iRtroduced Into *.nr mnanufacturo of linen, there 4 nreat danggr of a large portiou of that staple belng also lost to the eountry. Resolved, That the manuiaeture of cottop goods, fronr the general and rncressin deniand for this fabric, appears eminentlr doservind of attention I nut that, to afford an opportunity for the disposing ol the produce to be brought forward, an extension pf our foroign trade appears not only desirable but casentisi. Resolved, Thatweconsider an unrestricted isitercouraewlth Indla, and a reduction of dutle on its sugars (as the means of oxtending the markets for our mnanufactures), to be subjects well deserving of the fullest Investiation and inquiry. Resolved. That acheap suppi v of fuel beligof drst-rate importance in all manufactures, Coals ought to be exeempt from duty, and the importation relieved from all restraint, local or general. Resolved, Thatfduring the period whlch must neceesarily intervone before manufactures can beso eftablished as to furnish ernlploYment to any extent, thlis meeting would suggest the proprlety of ntcrest- Ing Government to continue and extend public works of utility. par- ticularly new roads, so much wanting to fablRtate intereourse L-i rnny parts of the country. Resolved, That a Committee be apr,ltnted for effecting the objecta oftheprecedingresolutions, with liberty to add to to?irnumnure. and to enter into communications with thoso whe may be dispoaed to assist In the furtherance ot their objects, and that the following gentlemen di) form the Comittee:- James Cropper,e sq. 01 Liverpool TomusPlm Benjamnin uinness James M.PIke.
