The New Connexion Methodists in Sheffield plan to petition for removal of grievances binding Dissenters to the Church and State. Congregational and Wesleyan Dissenters meet at Launceston to petition Parliament for redress, with liberal Church members joining. Bucks, Durham, and Tewkesbury MPs Smith Pease and Martin met Earl Grey to present memorials. Mr Martin fell ill briefly but recovered after medical aid was provided.

Local Courts amendment debate and UK trade figures
On Tuesday night Mr. Rigby Wason moved to refer the leave to bring in a bill for Local Courts to a Select Committee to examine cheaper, less burdensome justice and bar independence. The Treasury printed a complete return on UK trade and customs for year ending Jan 5, 1833, showing drops in customs revenue, grain and sugar duties, high branded spirits duties, and reduced sugar drawbacks, while exports and shipping figures rose modestly. The piece notes Irish legal interest in Baron Smith and an address signed by members of the Irish bar.
