Siterill WAITHMAN hating taken the chair, read the requisition, and allerwaids remarked, that dnatigii he had no ri 4 ht to take part in the proceedings, he doubted not that he should have reason to approve of what they resoled. In eonclasimt, he hoped that they would give every gentleman who might present ithnsell a fair hearing. Mr. P. MOORS observed, that he was one of those who had heed bistro:an:mat in calling the meeling t o Address the King to change that system which had been so tuitions to the people. He was glad to see their worthy mazistrate im the chair, Er he was one who had done much to enlighten the public mind; he had been greatly instrumental in making the sentiments of the City of London almost wholly in favour of the people. (Cheers.) He (Mr. Moore) had recently had ooportu nity of speaking to them lamely respectiog Green Bags. Those filthy bags had been blown into air; not a vestitte remained; but, he repeated, all had been done by the voice of the people.—(Applanse.) He concluded with ninvilig a resolution for an Address to the him; to dis miss his ministers, who had sought to bring into con tempt the dignity of the mown. Tlte resolution was put and agreed to, Mr. Williams. the Parish-clerk, holding up his hamd against it. Mr. P.
