Resolved, That we entertain a profound veneration for the, Constitution, as established by the glorious Revolution of 1688_ by whiCh the most valuable privileges of the Subject were con firmed, and the Illustrious House of Brunswick seated on the Throne of these Realms; and that to his Majesty, as the head of that Reuse and of the British Empire, we owe, and we re ye:tfully offer, our profound homage. Resolved, That deeply impressed with the importance of the rincirles of that Constitution, and without yielding to any por tixi of the Community in genuine loyalty, we have viewed with • rtligned regret the proceedings instituted in the Upper House of Parlia• , nt against his Maiesty's Royal Consort; seeing that they were contrary to those principles, derogatory to the honour of the Crown, injurious to the murals, painful to the best feelings, tad inimical to the dearest interests of the People, and therefore fraught with danger to the internal tranquillity of the Empire. Resolved, That while we applaud the wisdom which dictated the withdrawing of the Bill of Pains and Penalties, we sincerely zament that the feelings Of the Nation have been outraged by th e ictroduction.of it into, and the subsequent proceedings on it, in l'Arlimnent ; and we canna forget that the Advisers and I'ro,. n..,tcrs of it have, during their administration of the public ,fairs of the Country, shewn a total disregard of the political liberties of the People, and that we therefore can no longer place confidence in them ; nor can we consider the men who presumed to advise his Majesty to institute, by Messages to both Houses of Parliament, an Inquiry founded on the Report of an vnac credited and unconstitutional Commission, and with pertinacious oli,tinacy persevered in that inquiry upon the credit of contami n_ted evidence derived from that polluted source, and thereby calangered the peace of the Realm, to be any longer fit to guide the counsels of a great and enlightened Nation. 1. That the rejection of the Bill of Pains and Penalties against the Queen, by the House of Lords, is not only matter of just congratulation to her Majesty, but also to every real friend to the reigning Family, and to the Constitution of the Country. 2. That this Meeting, under a conviction of her Majesty's innocence, cannot too strongly express its abhorrence of the in jurious tendency of the polluted and contaminating stream with which this moral country has been inundated by the proceedings against her Majesty. 3. That an Address, founded on the foregoing Resolutions, be presented to the Queen, congratulating her Majesty on the abandonment of the Bill of Pains and Penalties by the House of Lords.

That the Address to the Queen be presented to her Ma jesty by the Chairman, accompanied by the Mcrier and Seconder, and such Ladies and Gentlemen as may please to attend the presentation. 5. That in the opinion of this Meeting the conduct of the King's Ministers, not only during, but since the termination of these proceedings, has been marked by the most studied insult to the Queen Consort, has been disgraceful to their characters as Men, derogatory to their wisdom as Statesmen, subversive of the principles of British jurisprudence, and calculated to en danger the Constitution, by alienating the affections of the Pc:iple. 6. That impressed with these convictions, it is the opinion of this Meeting, that all ss-lio wish well to the country, are impe riously called upon to implore the King to remove from his Majesty's preseqce for ever, the Ministers who advised these disgraceful proceedings, whose general conduct has been such as to irritate the feelings of the People, and to call to his councils such men only as will support the dignity of the Crown, enforce the due administration of the Laws, and, by conciliating the af fections, promote the happiness of the People. 7. That an Address in conferrnay to the foregoing Resolu tions be presented to his Majesty the King ; that the Address ' now read be adopted by the Meeting, and that it lay at appointed places for signatures. .

To your Majesty as the Head of that House and of the Empire, we owe and we cheerfully and respectfully offer cr.:r profound homage. " Deeply impressed with the importance of the principles of Oa at Constitution, and without yielding to any portion of the Cammunity in genuine loyalty, we have viewed with unfeigned regret the proceedings instituted in the Upper !louse of Parlia ment against your Majtsty's Royal Consort, seeing that they were contrary to those principles, derogatory to the honour of the Crown, injurious to the morals, painful to the best feelings, and inimical to the dearest tights of the People, and therefore fraught with danger to the internal tranquillity of the Empire. We, therefore, beg permission humbly and sincerely to congra tulate your Majesty upon the abundonment of the Bill of Pains and Penalties. " While we lament Aix the feelings of the Nation have been outrage 4 by such vnexampled proceedings, we cannot forget that the advisers and promoters of them have, during their adminis tration of the public affairs of the Count ry, shewn a total disre gard of the political liberties of the l'eople, and we can, there fge, no longer place Cbtitidence in them ; nor can we consider the men who presumed to advise your Majesty to institute, by a Message to t.oth Houses of Parliament, an inquiry founded tpqn the labours of an unaccredited and unconstitutional Com m: :ion, and who, with pertinacious obstinacy, persevered in th.t Inquiry upon the credit of contaminated evidence derived fr•zn that polluted source, and thereby endangered the peace of Rea:ni, to be any longer fit to guide the Counsels of a great en!:•:htened Nation ; and we, therefore, deem it an impe ti:::* duty, most humMy, but most ardently, to implore your ):. - .jesty to dismiss them from your Counsels and your presence C .: Mr. " Pcrslia:ltd that the conservation of oar dearest interests is connected with the legitimate dignity of the Crown, t‘ r fcive:ntly pray, that that ALMICItTY Powsit, by whom Kings - ign Lnd Princes decree justice, may long preserve your Ma .:•!y, in peace to sway the Sceptre of these Realms, over a Peo i ;t increasinEly happy and prosperous, through the influence of •-• :r.:ld, a wise, a conciliating, and paternal Government.

XINGDOM OF HA VIM As much will depend on the conduct of Boieß in the present emergency, if any faith is to be reposed in the sentiments expressed by him in the following letter to Sir HOME POPHAM, we must believe him to be actuated by no other views than those which have for their object the peace and union of the Haytians: From the letter it appears that Sir Roue, highly to • his honour, had exerted himself zealously to pro mote this laudable object. "JEAN PIERRE BOYER, President of Hayti, to his Ex cellency Sir HOME POPIIAM, Rear-Admiral, command ing the Naval Forces of his Britannic Majesty nn the Jamaica Station. " Sza—T received yesterday evening your letter, in which you point out to me the danger to which the liberty and indepen dence of Hayti are exposed, by the influence which the colonial party has obtained in the Councils of his Most Christian Ma jesty, which may attempt sooner or later to regain the domi nation of this country, in consequence of the unfortunate divi sions which exist between the north and the west and south parts of the island. " I have reflected often, and very maturely, on the come qu ences of the too division of this which belongs to the cruel of the Haytians. I hav p e ortion always deplored territo th ry e fatality which has been the cause of it, and which has kept it up to this day. My conscience offers me the consolatory satis faction of knowing that no ambition suggested the step., or the conduct of the Government of this part; that the felicity and the preservation of the people have alone served fur its guide in all that has been undertaken for the maintenance of the national emancipation. " The moment in which you propose to me an approximation between the Government of the North and that of this part, is nut the suitable time for opening up the past; to attain the object proposed we must determine honestly to draw a veil of oblivion over past actions, renounce all personal pretensions, and submit all private views to what is demanded by the safety of the country. The union which.you desire for the happiness of the Haytian people, might soon be effected, if the Chief of the North, yielding to the interest of the people in general, would only abandon the unfortuoate idea that he is a better Haytian than the usher Haytians, and that in him alone resides the Pti mitivo faculty of finding the means to govern the country in a suitable manner. lie will then admit that the people who have constituted themselves a Republic, ought to be recognised and respected on the integrity of the Constitution which they hive given to therns a lves; he will be eager to recognise authentically, and observe reiigiously, this declaration. By this meanie s ways for enabling the forces of the country to act together, when ne cessary, against external enemies, will be immediately established, and the object which you point out will be obtained. " If, unfortunately, this manner of acting, which is the only one which can inspire coufidence, was not practicable, it is not my fault. I shall, however, continue to deplore the error which stands in the way of the federation of a people who, having the same interests to maintain, may differ at the same time in their manner of thinking as to the organization of its interior admi nistration. Neither shall I ever cease to consider the inhabitants of the North as ilay,iatis, and as friends and brethren, who may always count on the assistance of the arms • which are confided to my command, if an exterior enemy should land on the terri tory occupied by them ; rid I shall le..ve. to time and cirzum stances to Operate the approximation which you desire, end I do not despair that Dives*: l'aovimmer, which seems always to have watched over }Leyte, will somer or later bring about this happy event. " The sentiment which induced you to take this step, is as • praiseworthy in its principle as worthy of the character which has obtained you the esteem of all those who know you ; and I hope that the Ilaytians over whom I have the honour to pre side, will make constaut efforts to molt your good will. " I thank Bev VFN that it has spared me tin.: grid of the re fLction, that is no period of toy use I have been the cause of the shedding of blood ; and 1 never ce.tse to invoke its prams that I may always be embled never to lose sight of the cause of humanity and that of my eauntry, which, whatever may be said, shall never be betrayed by those who live under the laws of the Republic. " Accept, &c. (Signed) ." BOY.ER. " Port-au-Prince, Ist 31ay, z O—Year 17 of Indepei;deNc."
