The City of London has therefore at this mo ment two Documents present to the ..Throne, end IfetWeen both certainly cuts .a very4liculous Sore'. Why . does . not some MemblpVihave a Itteetrug called to rescind the Address ahem the Persecutions in France, now that it is demon strable that.. it 'was carrie d prematurely on false 'information and insufficient grounds. Better re trace this foolishetep, than persevere in thawrong and endure the present dilemma. Upon the sub ject - of this senseless Vote we copy the following , judicious though severe remarks from the Liverpool talker:— " tine of the evils arising from men preniatinrely torwmitting - themselves, however, is than' they generally choose pertinaciously to persevere in the Wrong, than liouestly Co retrace their steps into the right. This has been exemplified iu the City of :London, whose Address 'to the Regent -is yet nn iiresented, but who, nevertheless," have detertnin• td, in defiance of all the evidence to disprove its alle gations which since it was voted has transpired, that it shalt stilt go up; •We believe that the City tlf London has of late, on most questions, bad but little influence on the rest of the conotry, end that its .catuniou-place commendation as the first City in the Empire, has ceased to product *flush effect, except upon itgelf. Its Councils have got into the hands not favourable to the speedy recovery of its influence; and it has too,Rften. been on the side or faction to, redeem its charac ter in haste. The procedure we refer to will 'not tertainly, hasten that trent.'

Lord GARIMNCR ) one of the Lords of the Ad miralty, being appointed to a distrint Command, Irrote to the Sick and Wounded Board, on the 4th of December 1793 : " As Lemons arc, I believe, deservedly ac knowledged to be the best anti-scorbutic, and being carefully packed, will contain their good qualities for several Months. I must beg leave to ingest to you, whether a few chests of lemons to each ship, may not be productive of very great benefit to the crews of the respective ships." " On the 13th of December 1793, the Com missioners of the Sick and Wounded, recommend to the Lords of est: Admiralty, the putting a few chests of leuous, or a quantity lemcin-juice pre pared for keeping, on board the ships of th e squ a drou, as an anti-scorbutic for the use of the comanies." And wrote on the same day to Lord GAnntNta, to inform him, " . that they had submitted his request 10 the consideration of the Lords Commis.

This we have retoon to knosi was ten months after lemons bad been - prescribed by Dr. Mumma to the Mediterranean Fleet, so that there can be no question of priority in this case ; and Dr. listt- Ness must remain in possession of the merit which he has publicly claimed in consequence of the as traordlnaryomission in Sir G.
