HEREFORD CITY MEETING. On Friday a numerous meeting of the Freemen and Inhabitants of Hereford City took place at the Old Town-Hall. for the purpose of voting a Loyal Address to his Majesty, including the Amendment proposed by Colonel Cooke at a former locating. At the son ttt i ttt ours request of all present. the Chair was taken by Juan PALMER, Esq. who Iltated that previous in proceeding to butanes, he should read the Answer returned by the Queen to the Address which had hen voted to her Majesty by the Freemen and Inhabitams of I lerrford, and which had been presented by R. I'. Scutlainure. E•q. one of the Member, for the City, and most graciously received by the Queen. Alter reading Mr. R. I'. Scollamote's letter, and her Majesty's reply to the Address. the Chairman proceeiled to state the object for which the present assembly had been called, and after alluding In the proceedings of the late meeting, ntirl reading the requisition fur the prevent one. with the Mayor's answer, he concluded with moving that the Address and Re solutions to hr siii:miied to the meeting should be read by R. Praline.. Est.. R. PHILLIPS, E•q. then rose anti addressed the nieetiog. lie coogratutated all present that the present ocea•inn afforded them au opportunity of strewing their loyalty to their King and their at tachment to the Cowin:dhoti of she country; the meeting he had site honour to address would not have been necessary, had nut the last been dissolved so ►uddesely ; and he thought it rather unfortunate, the respectful request contained its two requisitions, respectably siqued, had not been deemed worthy of more grace, whilst he must state his opinion, that the MM'S uffixed so the requisitions ought to have • induced the Mayor to have acceded to them. Ile t ben commented nu the• proceedings of the last meet- Mg, anti the presence of the Lord Lieutenant, and biassed the ari.,trary ,tiatillet 11l Will. • it hail IIeVII dissolved, a, Is- conceived it to have been the duty of the Mayor to take the sense of the meeting, amt not act in contradiction to it. lie could not too severely blame that presumption which induced any set of men to arrogate to themselves exclusive loyalty ; Ice thought these the tact friesit!s to the country who supported the Constitution in all its warty, suit the loudest in profession were often fouud the most tardy in uetiou, when the day ot• real danger arrived. He then observed on .the Ad• er't 1-408•SSOM0411rAo'ItSto.,4 • • In consequence of a Requisition, signed by the Collectors of Taxes for this County and other Gen. tlemen, the Lord Lieutenant sod Convener fixed Wednesday, the 2, 0 I h . for a general meeting of the Noblemen, Deputy Lienteuaots, Justices of the Peace, and Cumtnissionera of Supply, to Ad dress hi* alisjesty. The meet , ng accordingly took place in the new Court I-louse, every part of which was crowded to excess. The Margot* of HUNTLY. Lord Lieutenant, took the Chair. Mr. HAY still dissented. stating, that did he fur a moment suppose that forwarding the pieiwiit Address would in any shape tend to save his Ma jesty the pain of lisiening to the sentiments ',Web the Ministers had called forth throughout the king• dum. he would cordially vote for any Address that might be proposed. Not believing that likely to be the case, he must stilt record ins disapproves of the measure. Mr. MENxtes. of Pitfodels, opened the pro. , ceedings, by referring to the advertisement. signed by the Lad Lieutenant and himself calling the meeting. Mr. SIMI E. of Skene, itnmediately rose (amidst much applause), audio strong and emphatic terms declared his opinion, that neither the Loid Lieute nant nor Convener of the County had any right whatever, jointly or'individually, to call a meeting of the present description. He was aware that, in perilous times, when the country was either menaced with rebellion or a foreign enemy, the Lord Lieute nant 'night call his Deputy Lieutenants together to coecert measures tor the public safety, but in peaceable times like the prevent, lie contended that he had no such right, nor had tl:e Convener of the , County any right to call • meeting upon the Re. genii:on of Freeholders or Commissioners of Sup ply, whose names ought to be published, which had not been the case in the present instance; and he therefore begged that the Convener would explain to the meeting who or whet Freeholders had signed the Requisition.—(aippinese.) Mr. Menates stated, that although he did not consider the Gentleman had ai.y right to call for the Requisition, or the names of those who had signed it, yet he did not object to the Requisition being reed, which was read accordingly. Dr. FORDYCE said, he had been perfectly clear that the meeting should be celled, and it was • very great mistake that his name did not appear in the Requisition, which be would have most cor dially signed. The Marquis of lIUNTLY then rose, and, in • clear and distinct inionner, uddressed the meeting nearly as follows:—" Gentlemen, it is highly grati fying to me to witnew the respectable body of Gen tlemen now assembled stn this most important twee siou, and I trust that we shall all be unanimous in voting a warm, loyal, and affectionate Address to his Majesty ; and I also trust that Gentlemen have conic here only with that view. And whatever Ad dress limy be agreed 1311011, 1 511411 be proud to have the honour of forwarding it. Whatever my politi cal opinions may be, I have never obtruded them in public or in private, and the line of conduct I have hitherto pursued I will still continue. 1 inn mini fied, Gentlemen, that you are assured 1 have only one object in view, namely, the welfare and interest of this large and impatient county."—( Hisses/roes the galleries.) Mr. IRVINE. of Drum. without offering any ob servation, handed an Address across the table. Mr. MENZIES, in seconding the Address, said. that he would refrain from making any comments i upon the terms of it, about which he conceived there could tint be lion opinions.

Mr. Stung said, he was unwilling to trespass further on the time of the meeting ; he should only say, that he considered any Address at all to bo perfectly unnecessary.
