YORKSHIRE. 



The great York reform-meeting took 

 place on Wednesday, the 5;2d ult. in con- 

 sequence of the requisition of 2000 free- 

 holders. After a most able speech, Mr. 

 W. Fawkes read t!ie following resolution* 

 for the adoption of the meeting: — "Re- 

 solved, 1. That the constitution of this 

 conntry is a yovernment consisting of 

 three independent states : a limited mo- 

 narchy, a limited aristocracy, and a limitecf 

 democracy. That each has its distinct 

 and peculiar functions and privileges ; and 

 that one of these estates cannot nndtdy 

 influence the functions of either of the 

 others, without disturbing that balance 

 which is essential to secure and perpetuate 

 the various advantages which may be 

 derived to the people from a government 

 so constituted.— 2, That the House of 

 Commons, as at present composed, jjoes 

 not express the national will ; on the con- 

 trary, it has too generally proved its rea- 

 diness to comply with the dictates of 

 whatsoever minister may have dispensed 

 the favours of the crown. — 3. That the ef- 

 fects of the present state of the House of 

 Coniuioirs have been the wanton and pro- 

 fligate expenchture of the public money, 

 and the unprincipled creation and conti- 

 nuance of useless places and unmerited 

 pensions, in defiance of the loud and gene- 

 ral expression of the public feeling. — 4, 

 That the heavy pressure or load of taxes 

 imposed, for the purpose of supporting 

 an extravagant ci\ il list, ancl of mainiain- 

 iug a ruinously large military ancf coloniaJ 

 c^tablishiiieot
