The LORD MAYOR then StD(NI up aunt addressed the assembly, He regretted that on such an occasion as the present the chair had not fallen to the-lot of some more able person; for never had a meeting on the great sub ject of reform taken place calculated to excite such ex pectations of success as that over which he had now the honour to preside; never was there an occasion on which SO many men of distinguished talent had appeared. in the midst of such eminent persons he could not think or detaining the meeting upon the theme of the libel-tier of the people ofEngland, but this much ,he most say, that the difference between a free Government and a despotism existed to ,the state of the representation of the people, and that it was bedause the people were dissatisfied at the manlier in which they were tepresented that this meeting took place.
