MEETING .4T THE CROWN AND ANCHOR. A Public Meeting•was - held yesterday at the . Crown and Anchor Tavern, to receive the Report of. the Committee for. conducting the Subscription to pre sent her Majesty the QUEEN with a Service of Plate.' The ,Meeting had becn announced for one o'clock, hit was subsequently postponed, in consequence of the eclipse, to two o'clock. It was most numerously . _ and respectably attended, and graced by the pre sence of a larger number of beautiful and ele gantly attired females than has ever been wit• nessed on any former occasion. Shortly after two o'clock Sir GERARD NOEL, accompanied by the Mem bers of the Committee, entered the room, and was unanimously called• to the Chair. Ile immediately proceeded to call the attention of the Meeting to the object for which they se e convened. IL: expressed his , :atisfaction at witnessing so highly respectable a Meeting, as it furnished an additional proof, if any additional proof were wanting, that the sentiments of the whole country we'e in favour.of her' Majesty the QUEEN. Tile beg interests of the nation were, in bet, so mixed up with the cause of her MAJESTY, that the particular object for which they were assem-. bled, namely, to present her \ L with a mag nificent Sc: ice of Plate, was comparatively an ob- • ject of little importance. He would not occupy the time of the Meeting, because he felt it to be his duty as Chairman, rather to listen to others, than to trouble them with any observations of his own. • The Secre tary would read the Report of the Committee, and he would only add, that he felt proud of being the instrument of conveying to her MAJESTY the loyal and affectionate sentiments of the people. Mr. CHARLES PEARSON, the Secretary, proceeded to read the Report of the .Committee. It stated, that at a Meeting held at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, on the 2351 of August, several Resolutions had been carried, expiessive of the sense which that Meeting eutertained of the suffet ings and periecutions to which her Majesty bad been exposed ;, of the gratitude with which they reflected, thatthe public money had never been wasted in supplying her extravagance, or dis charging her debts ;..and of their unanimous opinion, * that a 3.:bseription, limited to Is. each.person, should be opened, for the purpose of - presenting her with a Service of Plate, as a monument of the nation's gra titude. It stated, that Mr. Alderman Wood had ac cepted the office of Treasurer, and that he'hadiarned Mr. J. Hurcombe and Mr. P. Charntan as his Re presentatives ; the Rev. Mr. Hayes and Dr. Gilchrist had also been appointed Honorary Secretaries for Ire land and Scotland. 'ln inviting Lathe's to attend the Public Meeting, the Committee were not merely ac tuated by a wish to be favoured with the presence of those great stimulants to all that is great. generous, and noble in the human character, but by a desire, that their amiable countrywomen would become co -operators in this great cause of national sympathy and feeling. Dr. GILCHRIST ascended the table.to propose the first Resolution—" That the Report now read be ap proved by this Meeting."—lt was not his intention to detain the Meeting, for he thought the two great evils of the present times were, first, seifism, and secondly, speechification. It was the less necessary for high to offend in the latter particular, as he was persuaded the Meeting were unanimous upon the propriety of coming forward in behalf of an oppressed Queen, a widowed wife, and a childless mother. He had heard with, pleasure, that Ireland was included in the ob jects of this Meeting, but as a Caledonian, he could not help feeling, that the country which had pro duced a 'Wallace and a Bruce, would never be slow to come forward and express their sentiments in fa vour of persecuted innocence. He concluded by pro posing the Resolution, which was seconded by Major WILLIAMS, and carried unanimously. Mr. Coss? proposed the next Resolution:— " That respectable persons be requested to accept the office of Receivers of Subscriptions, in furtherance of the objects of Otis Meeting, and that Gentlemen be invited to form themselves into districLassociations for that purpose.' Nit. CLARK seconded this Resolution, observing, that he was but little in the habit of addressing Public Meetings, but that he felt re-assured on this occasion, by the pre ence of so much beauty and fashion. Mr. TIIELWALL was anxious to address a few ob servations to the Meeting, before the question was put from the Chair. He contended that the morals of the country were at stake; the security of the wives and daughters of every man in the country was at stake ; for it the most Ilisastrious Lady in the land might be oppressed and persecuted, *what security was there f 'r any woman who had not the shield of high rank to protect her? He could never believe the guilt of one who had acted so heroical a part as her Alajesly; fcr where there was magnanimity of soul, he always believed there was integrity of prin ciple. Let it be recollected, too, that not one re spectable witness had been produced against her, though the recruiting drum had been beaten for them irons one end of the Continent to the other— (Applause). The Attorney-General had promised, in his opening speech, to produce respectable English witues-e , , as well as foreign raggamuffins against her; hut how had he fulfilled that promise? Two English witnesses only had been produced; one of whom said nothing against the Queen, and the other gave testimony in her favour! The great object of his Majesty's Ministers seemed to be to corrupt the morals of the people. The whole proceedings against her Majesty had calumny for their foundation, and contagion and depravity for their issue. But even supposing her Majesty to be guilty, that guilt, he contended, was the crime of others. After being be trayed into a marriage for avaricious purposes, after being basely abandoned and cast out a helpless wan derer .upon the world, after being kidnapped out of the country and deprived of the support and protec tion of a geneious nation, he would ask whether, even upon the supposition of her guilt, the whole of the sin did not belong to her first persecutor? After a variety _of other observations, be concluded by s . up porting the Resolution. The Resolution was put and carried unanimously Mr. HAYDON moved the next Resolution " That the Ladies be respectfully solicited to afford their powerful assistance in promoting thy object. of this Meeting." —He trusted that the great national object in which they were engaged would be assisted not only by the smiles of their fair countrywomen, but by their ac tive co-operation. If the Ladies would come for ward and form themselves into district associations, itt would be as impossible to fail in this object as iu any other which was aided and promoted by their animating AMllfteintibie ibfiudice.' Mr. FYsclix seconded the Resolution. Sir G: No expressed his _waft 'concurrence in the sentiments which had been expressed by the Gen tleman who prOposedihis Resolution. He felt cheered and animated by the presence of so Lute a portion of his fair countrywomen : and he was glad that he did not observe any of the wives or daughters of the Peels of the realm in this assemblage of beautiful and virtuous women. It was to the female aristo cracy of this country, and to the adulation which they had paid to power, that Much of the mischief which they now deplored was to be attributed. So farfrom thinking them the higher classes, he pro nounced them upon this occasion to be the lowest— (Applause). Let the Ladies in this Meeting; said the worthy Baronet, set them such an example as shall. either compel them to agree with us, or punish them for their disagreement. Mr. Bowie proposed the next Resolution: a That the friends of the Queen in every county v city, town, and village of the United Kingdom be invited to become re. ceivers, and that proper authorities be provided for this purpose by the Secretary. " Mr. WOOLER stepped forward for the purpose of seconding this Resolution, The question, he said, was not so much- one of the guilt or innocence of 'the Queen ; they had . not met there to try 'her for alleged offences, for the whole country had antici pated her innocence before the evidence was pro duced ; and now that the evidence had been brought forward, they pronounced her innocent—(Applause). They met, therefore, not to discuss the question of her guilt or innocence, but to devise the means in which they might best express their sentiments of homage and respect, and convey to her Majesty some' token of their conviction of her innocence. The country did, indeed, at the present moment, present a most singular spectacle. That people w ho had been charged with a disregard of all law and mo t rality, now stood forward to evince their loyalty, while the highest authorities, assembled in their august conclave, were trying to cast unmerited de-' gradation upon Royalty, and asking the people to I become participators in their iniquity. The people had now an opportunity of retorting upon them the foul charges which had been made against them. The Administration of the day artfully endeavoured to sliuffic responsibility from their own shoulders, in the proceedings against the Queen, but the day of rekribution might yet come; Let it be recollected that her Majesty was not merely a Queen Consort— she stood in the line of succession to the throne; and the proceeding by which it .was attempted to de grade her was consequently calculated to throw ob stacle's in the way of the succession. Supposing an event to occur, which all men of course deprecated, he meant the death of his present Majesty, what was to hinder this Administration from bringing in a Bill of Pains and Penalties against the Duke of York for his former indiscretions ? The argument, the law, the justice, the reason of the case, were equally applicable ; the Attorney-General need only change the name of the patties, and the same Bill of Pains and Penalties which had been .brought against the Queen might serve for the Duke of York—(Loud applause).—Nor was there any reason that Minis ters should stop here—the same Bill of Pains and Penalties might also be brought againit his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence—(Loud applause). l There was reason therefore to suppose that the au thors of this Bill were leagued in a conspiracy to-ex terminate the House of Brunswick. If such were the incalculable mischiefs which might be produced by the conduct of his Majesty's Mini:•ters,lt was high time for every class of the community to come for• ward and express their feelings, without being in fluenced by those time-serving, temporising syco phants, who were waiting to see whether they would congratulate the hunted deer on its escape, or sit down with the hunters to join hi the bloody banquet —(Applause). It had been well observed by the Honourable and Worthy Baronet, that the higher. orders had upen this occasion shewn themselves to be the lower. In his opinion the test of respectabi-- lity was, not whether men were in high or low rank, but whether,- in whatever class of life they Might be placed, they discharged their duty. The people' Of England were unanimous in the sentiments of re spect which they entertained for her Majesty, and it was only a very small and. interested portion of the community who did not concur in that feeling. The Law Officers of the Crown felt that they had en tirely failed to make out a case against her Majesty; witness after witness had been produced, and at every step they felt that the case had broken under them. An application was now made for more time, so that atter being in posse ss io n o f t h e charges for more than three years—after all the preparations for this grand political melo-drarne--after all the training of the performers, and repeated rehearsals for the last , eighteen months—the stage managers came forward to say they were extremely sorry that they were unable • to play the next act—(Loud applause).—H If they would act honourably at this period of the performance, and promise something better for the remainder of the entertainment, the people might still be disposed to shew them some lenity. He be lieved, however, that there was no mode in which they could extricate themselves from the dilemma in which their own profligacy and injustice had placed them ; and if they failed in making out a case against the Queen, the Queen might be able to make out a serious case against them—(Applause). The proceed. ing against the Queen was a mockery upon all judi cial proceedings; but the Houie of Lords might not, have been fitted up- in vain, for it might be destined for a trial of a more justifiable nature, in which the persons who now•united the character of Judges and, accusers might themselves stand at the bar. He con cluded by giving his cordial support to the Resolu tion, which was agreed to unanimously. Mr. MUJIPHY moved, g. That the following Noble men and Gentlemen be requested to accept the office of Trustees, for the purposes of this Subscription : Sir G. Noel, Bart. ALP. the llnke of Leinster • M. Wood, Esq. M. P. the lion. D. Kinnaird ; I'. Moore, Esq. BI.P. J. Hume, Esq. M.P. Mr. Alderman Thorp; Major J. Williams; Mr. Alderman Waithman ; Lord W. Fitzgerald; Sir IL Wil. son, M.P. Sir F. Burdett ; J. C. llobh o use , E sq . C. C a l vert,. 16. sad 1~ Mee, Esq. ht. P." Sir G. NOEL seconded the motion, and suggested that a clause should be added, empowering the Trus tees to add to their number.—The Resolution .so amended was put and carried umanimously. Mi. PITT proposed the Thanks of the Meeting to' Mr. Alderman Wood, for the generous and manly !conduct which he had evinced in the cause of her Majesty, which war carried - nnatiimously. • ). ' • Mr. MILLS moved the Thanks of the Meeting to Sir G,. Noel, for his able conduet in the !Chair, anf;l for:the zeal with which he had promoted the objects of this Meeting. • Sir G. NOEL returned. thanks, and added, that he had received a letter from Mr. Alderman Wond, stating, that the necessity of attending upon the-Queen had prevented him from being present at this Aket ing. The worthy Alderman added, that her Ma jesty was at this time labouring under a considerable degree of pecuniary difficulty in consequence , of his Majesty's Ministers having withheld from her the means of carrying on her defence—(flear, krar).— He was glad to communicate this circumstance to the Meeting, because everything which augmented .the delinquency of the Administration, he.held to be valuable to themselves. He trusted the people of , this country would never suffer her Majesty to be deprived of the means of defence from want of, money, and, he thought, this subject ought to be brought forward at some subsequent Meeting. He thought, indeed, the resent highly respectable Meet ing ought not to separate without comins to some Resolution, expressive of their determination to ies cue her Majesty from the state-of destitutio4 to which she was reduced by his Majesty's Ministers. A Resolution to this eff•zct was proposed, but it was agreed to postpone it until a public notice had been given, and at six o'clock the Meeting separated. THE QUEENS AQUATIC EXCURSIOM Yesterday forenoon, a short time bcf - ore 12 o'clock, her MAJESTY, accompanied by Lady ANNE HA TON, Lady CHARLOTTE LINDSAY, Alderman WOOD, the Hon. KEPPEL CRAVEN, and the ether persons of her suite, left lirandenburgh House, and proceeded to the nearest place for embarkation, which is about five hundred yards from her MAJESTY'S residence: the party then went on board a State Barge, and proceeded 'down the River, on their way to (Aileen wich, Woolwich, dec. The tide being adverse, the barge was rowed by a steam-boat. it was nearly halt-past two before they reached Waterloo Bridge, when the to - wing-line was cast off from the steam yacht, and the crew of the Royal barge, taking to their oars, proceeded without . her assistance, Mr. SEARLE,• of Lambeth, acting as cockswain. The barge was.decorated by a profusion of union jacks, broad pendants, and streamers : she was Towed by twenty men; all wearing scarlet uniforms, and state caps of .blieck• - velvet. The QulfitiOr approach was greeted by discharges .of camusciffeinv the several wharfs on the banks of ' the RivelOtnd by joyful acclamations by the spec tators who Ilined the several bridges. Immedittaely opposite the new erections for. the Italian witnesses, inCotton-garden,tremendous shouts of execration were raises', while the large guns on the opposite shere at Stangate, fired a Royal Salute. As - her-Maasstir proceeded down the River, the crowds on iis.banks, and the boats on its surface, in creased Papielv Before her MAJESTY reached Lon don Bridge she boats fall of company, eager to ap proach the Royal vessel, were. so great as to inter rupt its progress, and the danger . was so'apparent, it, became.neeessary to adopt mclans for keeping them at a. di4titsee-4 :liut notwithstanding every precaution a boat lwasowamped• near the barge, containing seven persons, who narrowly escaped drowning. The .front of the • Custom-House accommodated thousands of persons, who had stationed themselves for hours prior to her.itucsry's arrival at- that part of the River; .and as the • barge passed •alOng, the sailors in. the different ships huzzaed " The Queen .for ever!" and hoisted their colours. Every demon stration Of joy.was paid on the occasion, and her MAJEST' returned it with equal respect. • On the.different banks at the side of the River; crowds of persons - had a s sembled ; and here and there, where a - small village was in view, the inhabitants were to be seen near ,the banks, with their children neatly dressed, and callingout," The Queenfor ever! Caroline for ever!" 4fic. : auki waving their hats and ..bandkerchiefs. The barge proceedea.en, until it arrived at Green-' with HOspital. Within Side the railing crowds of persons were . callected". tngrther, and. could be seen in thousands for some distance. The utmost enthu siasm was here expressed by the spectators, and the I waving of handkerchiefs, &c._.and the shouts of the. people, had a most singular effect. Boats thronged in numbers from this spot, and followed the barge to Woolwich. On passing by Woolwich Dock-yard the sentries presented arms, and remained in their position until the barge passed by. . Her MAJESTY then proceeded to the extent of. Woolwich, amid the cheers of numberless spectators, and it beirig half-past four her MAJESTY, &c. pro ceeded to dinner, after which her MAJESTY and the rest of the company again made their appearance on the top of the barge, and shortly after set out on their return. On their arrival 2t Greenwich her MA JESTY'S carriage was in waiting, in which she re turned to London. Yesterday the Duchess of CLARENCE visited the Duchess of KENT, at her residence in the KING'S Palace, Kensington. The Royal Duchesses walked in Kensington-Gardens, with Prince CHARLES of Linin gen, the Princess FEODOR, and the infant Princes , : ALEXANDRINA. The Duchess of CLARENCE passed out of the Gardens by the east gate into Hyde-Palk, where her Royal Highness got into her carriage. BETTING AT . TATTERSALL'S YESTERDAY. DONLA*TER ST.

There are, besides, strong reasons to believe that,intrigues have been carrying on in many other Legions; to induce them to revolt; and it seems that the-execution of the plot at Paris was to be the_signal. Exertions are everywhere making to discover the traces of the horrid plots, the object of which was to rephinge France into all the evili from which it has but just escaped. On the other hand, the legion of the Meurthe is at this moment ae Landrecies and Averneg ; twenty-two of its officers lad been arrested before its departure from. Paris ; others 'have taken Right, and either on the road or on their arrival in their new garrisons, fresh arrests have taken place. The passage of couriers from. Paris to foreign court , tries is very frequent through Valenciennes. It is affirmed that the French Government has sent to the neighbouring States the list and descripion of the officers Who have fled; and reque-ls they may be de livered up if found in their territory. VALENCIENNES, SEPTEMBER 1. The following are .some details, the accuracy of which may be warranted, of the plot discovered at Cambray, the object of which was to mak: the Legion of the Seine revolt. The Officers who had tormed the plan, in concert with emissaries as rived from Paris at Cambray, had fixed the night of the 20th of Au gust for its execution. At ten o clf , ck the con , pirators were to repair to the Barracks to vut the Legion un der arms, and to announce to it that the King was dead—that the Royal Gtt:rd, and the whole Garrison of Paris, had proclaimed the son of Napoleon Empe ror—and that they should immediately go and join their brave comratles to co-operate is this great change. In case any of the Officers should have attempted to oppose the revolt, they were' o he killed on the spot. Immediately after the Legion was to assemble in the great smune cf Cambray, where it would have re. mained till the detachments sent out with Officers at their head should have seized on alt the public cfaers. Having effected this, the legloa would have taxii the road to Peronue, and ' have proceeded by forced marches to Paris. Information havipg been given to the superior Officers, at eight .in the evening vigor. • ous measures • were taken to baffie• the plan of the .conspirators; . unfortunately, most of them got inti. minion of the theasureAkkeozgainit them, and sic. seeded in escaping; sortie were arrested. in the a rail. ments of one of the conspirators papers - of-great isrt. portatic . e werediscovered, which' are said to explaill the whole bfibis plot: :They have been sent to 1.'4'4 tv the Crainelittee of theChscaiber of Peers. _ • • I.O'4DON • aha ri hp - „,•.
