When the last meeting took place, to petition on the distressed state of agriculture— -st 'object on which he worth' not expatiate, epee it was perfectly understood—the petition of the last county aseeti og. which he had had the honour to pre sent to the H Dose of Commons, produced precisely what he had antici; used,which , was no relief stall. (Laugh ter.) He had presented a great number of petitions, and, he believe d.there were only three of them that did not refer to that rital principle—Parliamentary reform. —He would nos • request the meeting to look to the fatal Policy which had Oasought this country to its present ab ject state. Fora hunt 30 years that baneful system had .00ntioued; and c odess parliamentary reform were ear stet!. the ruin of tf wootottry was inevitable.

S$ 'system which produced the greatest preponderance of that afflicted the nation. Till that system was x. alloyeu. they could not expect happiness and prosperity. What. then, was their true remedy; Parliamentary retl Was it from this house of corruption that they cool a+- initially look for relief? It was utterly impossible. la bad beeu truly stated, and clearly proved, that meath M' were returned to Parliament in a most corrupi maniac l'he system was so well known to the enlightened atiu intellectual people of this country, that it was unneces sary for hint to describe it. He might, however. be allowed to observe, that there were ell members in the Alouse of Commons as much at the command of the mi tomer as much as any servant in his house was at his command. (Cheers.) If it were not for those members, the people would have a reduction of taxes, which they would find extremely beneficial, although they were told that a reduction of taxation would afford no relief. Let them look, for instance, to the salt tax, the repeal of which was so nearly carried. It took the poor 111:111 Is. rt.!' MOO! to Sall his p a (An individual called out, No.) Ile (Nlr. Coke) a55,..r.:.1, that he stated the fact. He athlci-vseil himself to farmers—he had taken wine pains to tinily their interest, and lie understood it. (Applause.)

If they 'Wiled to this the salt word for other ptii• poses, it amounied ao 20i. more, and thus was the la moiriiig peasant deprived of los. a year. Would it tines be no relict to repeal this tax ?

(Applause.) He wished that his hon. colleague, b efore he had concluded, had assisted his memory by lalking into the Red Book.— (Aprlause.) He might the ta have quoted not a few of his friends who were 'the/ally . paid with the money of the people. He had been ask. td why. he did cot vote for the repeal of the salt tax, assa t he reason he had given his constituents was the very wo. -st that could be devised. —He stated, that he voted 'gains.' the•repeal, because he wished to preserve the sinking i ll . Id, and to support the public creditor. Now he agreed wal It hishon. colleague, that, before the funds were touched :and sooner or later that would be the case), every other ex fallen% should be resorted to. He would pare down Go . v.trnment salaries and pensions, and he would reduce taxatimi to the lowest possible scale. He would follow the steps olMr. Homes who had done more good in Parliament huts &orbits • ever recollected. its hon. colleague had wade use ofahe sinking fund as a cloak for his conduct, or tallier of the name of the sinking fund, fur sinking fund there was none.

Now, what was Lord Lon donderry's last act—the reduction to the 5 I , Cr MI6 Wily it was mulling but swindling. These were the shifts and tricks to witch ministers .sere forced to remit. Mr. W.

If .te cherished such a hope, lie would assuredly be deceived. The motion was then carried. 'Die thanks of the meeting were %vied to the llig 159 (Applause.}—After some allusions to the late duel; the Sheriff; after which the assembly, which consisted of. Worthy member thanked the meeting for the attention between 3,000 and 4.000 persons, separated. with which they had honoured him, and assured them that he would support their petition to the inmost of his power. (Cheers.) E. Woomouse, Esq. M.P., now stepped forward, and said, whatever his private opinion might be on the subject now more immediately under consideration, he felt that he should best consult the wishes of the meeting and his own sense of duty, by at once entering into au explanation of his public conduct since he last addressed them. He would, of course, touch on the salt tax, and. tell gentlemen why he voted against the repeal of that tax. Ile should be unworthy the situation of z repre sentative of a great county, or of any place however iusig tiifiesist, if he had not borne io mind the eirciinntatices. in which the country was their placed ; and if, in the perloranance of his duty, he did not view with some des gree of indifference the imputations that might be after ' wards cast upon him. At this time, it should be remem bered, Government were engaged in a negotiation of a most important nature. They were negotiating for the reductiun of a great portion of the national debt—that part of it on which the highest rate of interest was paid —he alluded to the paying off the 6 per cents. (Disap probation.) It was ol material consequence to the public. that the number of dissentients should be asuman as pos sible; for if the number of dissentients were very large, it would not be possible to carry the plan into execution, The number was fortunately very small, and Government reduced the whole of the b per cents. whichgave them in creased resources to the amount of t,hoo.oool.and would enable them to repeal the salt tax, either altogether or its part. (A voice from the crowd—" Does nor your family get 12,0001. from the public money I") He would not detain them a moment longer, but it was right that he should say a word or two out the subject of reform.— (Laughter and hisses.) He did not deny that the state they were in admitted of amendment (applause); but he would not go on a rash crusade of amendment, till he knew what the meditated alteration was. (Hisses.) Nothing gave him greater pleasure than the declaration of his hon. colleague, that he was a party man. He (Mr. Wodehouse) war a party man too. (" You are a d—d bad one, you're on the wrong side.") He confessed he did not understand to what length the reformation meant to go: to-day they appeared to be going pretty mar to universal suffrage. The honourable ban. (Sir T. Rector) would not, he thought, deny that. He would now paint out to the meeting the state of me represen actuation on the opposition side of the house. In doing so, he would mention the names of several public men —which were perfectly hailer to them.—First of all, was Mr- Tierney, an acute statesman. ao upright pa trios, and an hollow' to his country. lie was a member foe Kiiar.!sborough, through the tufluence of Earl Fos. william. Sir .1. Mackintosh was in the same situation. Mr. Bron,„tham was member from Witichelsea through the influence of Lord Darlington. Dr. Lushnigton was returned for llchester by the same interest. Mr. Aber cromby was returned for Calne by the Marquis of Lans downe. :dr. Scarlett represented Peterborough, by the favour of Earl Fitswilliam. Lord Nonnattby, who se conded Lord J. Russell's motion for reform, himself sat for Hiyham 1 1 errers, which was under the influence of Earl Fitswill tam. Lord Ebringtou was member for Tavistock, the patron of which was the Duke of Bedford. —A worthy &Joliet neap him (Sir T. Beevor) observed, that no man ci wild adduce a stronger reason for reform than the existesi ce of those boroughs. It was possible it might be so; but his motive t reading that list was to show how the opposition side of the house was con stituted. LAW DI TELLPO ENC E. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. 110110 Alf Nur Is.
