HAMPSHIRE MEETING. WINCHESTER, JAN• 14 The QUEENI T ES of Hampshire held their pro- . raised meeting this day at Winchester, and which, 'after all the different versions of the Requisition that have been published, was properly confuted, by reading the one delivered to the Sheriff, and his authority for holding it, to the Freeholders and other Gentlemen of the County ; but there was a large portion of the mob in the crowd, who came under the notice that had been given (but which • is disavowed by the Sheriff) for a Meeting under the convenient and comprehensive term " Inha " bitants." So thin a meeting of the County wa r s never witnessed before. There were from 500 to 700 present, not 100 of whom, we venture pledge ourselves, were of the description con vened, and-4 those who caused the Meeting to be . ealled,.wouldjutve it believed!there were more, let then i name them,, , and we.shall be satisfied, and will insert their names. They were headed and tailed ', by one of the Bergami - Peers, Lord CARNARVON, (for•no other Peer was present,) and after the strictest search and observation, we could ,only learn the names of the following per .sons • of property and respectability in the County : The Noble Lord • just named, Sir C. MILL, and Sir W. DE CRESPIGNY, Barts. Mr. ALEX. BARING, Mr. J. CARTER, Mr. E. CARTER, Mr. DICK'INSON, FLEMING, Mr. JErtvolsr, the two County Members, Mr. BECK-.' FORD, Mr: MARSH, Mr. J AMES, Mr. ATLIERLEY, ...and the Rev. MAY, amongst whom were :only 7 out of the 17 whose names were signed to the Requisition, several of whom, we understand, wished to have altOgether withdrawn them. The business was opened by Mr. ALEX. BARING, in a speech that was 'much too moderate for a large portion, „of his hearers,. and which he ended by moving .Resolutions according with the Requisi tion,sviz.—",To petition the House of Commons " on the subject of the late proceedings against ' the QUEEN, and praying them to take mea-. " sures to restore her name to the Liturgy, and take such steps as to them may appear ' " wisest and most effectual to remove every ob " staele to a final and satisfactory arrangement, " as well as to prevent the renewal of any mea " sures whatever against her MAs,ussr:'"fhis was seconded, in a very short speech, by Sir C. MiLL, who was followed by Sir WILLIAM DE *, and who, - though inflated at the outset, was soon b/orzn, as he himself expressed it, and frequently paused to take breath, and he went on with 'a tirade till he' soon came. to a stand-still. The worthy Baronet was followed by Mr. MARSH (who kindly divides his eminent services between Berks and Hants), •and whes„ practised all his usual drolleries, to the • no small gratification - of the Rabble.— Next followed Lord CARNARVON, who. was very angry indeed at finding no one to oppose the proposed measure, and with whom he :nicht have grappled. Indeed the whole party teemed to feel indignant at this decided contempt. iitNxmAN (who occupies the farm late Conseres, add has long been 'a disciple of his) closed this notable." one sided debate" by a few tropes and figures borrowed from Mr. MAasn's speech at the Berkshire meeting last week, .and by reading an edifying extract from the Morning Chronicle. He observed, that -he was a young 'man, and a young orator, as indeed his ora-1 tion proved. The Petition was then put to the vote. by a shew of hands, the Sheriff having tr,ken pity upon the hats, which were not all fit to be shewn, though that is the most corn mon and hest criterion of judging of a Majority, for it may, be, that some who have no hats, (as was the case to day), have two hands, and thus multiply the real number. A similar Petition was then proposed, without preface, to the House of Lords, and carried in a similar manner, when the 'Meeting • was dissolved, after voting thanks to L9rd Carnarvon, and the High Sheriff. We are sure that not more than 100 names could be sign ed at the Meeting, and none else ought to be signed -; but it will remain to be seen, how many will. be added afterwards. Mr. Fleming, who attended as one of the County Members, said, that he came to the Meeting to express his readiness to present any Address that - the County should cull upon him. to do, and . that was couched in proper and respectful terms, as this was ; and he wished that he could add his support thereto, but he could not on the present occasion, for which be. gave his reasons at large, and which we shall hereafter insert.—Pis speech was energetic and manly throughout, and heard with marked atten tion and general approbation, except in some few particulars where he differed in' opinion with the Meeting.—Mr Jervoise, the other Member, also cause forward, and expressed his readiness to pre sent and support the . Petition, and his perfect concurrence in the terms of it. 1 ' 'floe worthy Baronet acquired this little alteratiOn in Lis name it um the way in which he first crept into his seat for Southampton. ci O YDON_ti 4 fiN G. The Croydon Meeting on Thursday termi nated as might' have been expected from the la titude which was given to the formation of the motley assemblage. instead of being confined to the householders of Croydon, it was held to in clude under the terms " Croydon and its via wily" people of all descriptions, and from all plaCes. Even THELWALL attended from Brix ton !—The great disgrace of the Meeting how *ver was the prominent part taken in it by 'Wow.'lt, the author of that most infamous, aczndalous, and seditious publication the Black , i)rearf. if men pretending to come together for _purposes of loyalty will suffer such a wretch to take a lead among them there is no absurdity of -which they will not be guilty. WOOLER spoke to (ecomrnend Mr. ‘gAnE)..ty's taking. the Chair. Ci,a4tan, who tifst: .onposed the Loyal Ad -40489, tonstitted, with V,itockl:u—WOOLEß then syokt and ,ToTe'd the arnendinent--CLARKE se conded Nitroo,t.ia--,Voikt4t. spoke to order— WoOLER. • ag:4o pontoitded 'that inhabitants viol AG:achy/der; should ~vote—VV"Oor.rit resisted the motion that those who were not householders should withdraw and, lastly, WOOLER moved thanks to Mr. M A LIERLY. That there should be at Croydon, or in its vicinity, a number of low, worthless people, who think-it no disgrace to listen to such a person as Woor,En, and even to make him their leader, is' not surprising ; but that a man of Mr.. MABER- Ly's overgrown fortune should suffer his name to be in any way mixed up with WooLpa's, can hardly be accounted for on any principles very consistent with that Hon. Gentleman's known acuteness. Can auy man of. !ommon sense ima- . gine that the tendency of every thing. that Woof.rit has said and written for the last four or five years is not to produce one general scene of pillage throughout the land, and in the first place to annihilate the whole property of the Fund holders ? The Stock-jobber would be the first and the least pitied victim of a Revolution — Woe to his soul, if once the rabble, Begin in Five per Cents. to dabble. However, so it was that Mr. MABERLY deigned to take the Chair, after a laudatory speech of Mr. AlrooLea's : and Mr. MABERLY, as Chair man, did not insist, which he undoubtedly might and should have done, that the Non-House holders should withdraw ; or at least that Tel lers should be appointed to take the votes, by which means the persons who did not fall within the terms of the requisition would of course have been distinguished, and their votes rejected. The result of course was, that, WOOLER'S Amendment was adopted—the loyal party were outnumbered by a number of persons who had no right whatever to be present ; ' and the sense of " the Inhabitant Householders of Croydon and its vicinity was never taken at all." Of course, we presume, the loyal party will sign the origi nal Address, as conveying their own sentiments. (New Tiinesp) _ . SALOP COUNTY MEETING.. In consequenCe of the indisposition of the High Sheriff, the Chair was taken•bythe Under Sheriff (Mr. J. LONSDALE),, who read . the Requi sition, and stated the object of the meeting. • Sir ANDREW CORSET then rose, and proposed a loyal and dutiful Address to .the King , which was eloquently seconded by Joux ARTHUR LLOYD, Esq. The Ilon. H. G. BENNET then rose, and, in the course of a long speech, in which he denied the truth of the statement in the RequiSition as to the extent of the existence of sedition, and condemn ed the conduct of Ministers, proposed an amended Address, which was seconded by E. LECIIMERE CHARLTON, Esq. who, after speak ing some time, proposed and in vain endeavoured to bring about an union of all assembled, by pro.; posing to the .Requisitionists to incorporate. certain Amendments in the original Address ;- he also warmly inveighed against the Ministers, and. as also did Mr. Bennet, observed, that the origi-' nal Address was . evidently -intended to sanction the conduct of Ministers. The Rev. %V. Otter, Ralph Benson, Esq., John Bather, Esq., IL Slaney, Esq., the Zion. Thomas Kenyon, F. Knyvett Leighton, .Esq.-Lord Clive, and Panton Corbett, Esq. supported the original Address, denying that by so .. doing they meant to give any opinion for or against Ministers. The Rev. Cum:lA:s PETEns'spoke in support of the amended Address. Ri'cuMtn . WALFORD, Esq. also rose to support its but could not obtain a hearing. A A spew of hands then took place, *heti the Under Sheriff declared that " a large majority of the Freeholders were in - favour of the original Address ;" and the Meeting was then dissolved, amidst considerable uproar, Mr. Bennet and his friends declaring the Under Sheriff bad not .de . - cided aright. The number of Gentlemen. - acid Freeholders present - was unexampled ; and the original Ad dress was indeed carried by an. OVERWHELMING MAJORITY : it will be signed throughout the County. Mr. BENNET also stated, that his Address should be sent round for signatures, and be after wards presented to his Majesty by the Earl of Darlington.—(Salopian Journal.) - -- DUMFRIES COUNTY MEETING. In consequenCe of two requisitions, very re spectably signed, a numerous Meeting of the • Gentlemen of the County was held at Dumfries, on Wednesday, the 3d inst. for the purpose of voting a Loyal Address to his Majesty. The Marquis of QUEENSBERRY being called to the Chair, Sir .1 offs HERON MAN:WELL, Bart. of Springfield, in a neat and appropriate speech, proposed the Address. It was received with cheers, and seconded by Sir PAULUS JEMILIUS IftviNn, of ltobgill. General SHARPE rose to propose an Amend ment, but-was--interrupted- so ---frequeutly.lit the progress of his remarks, by calls to order, that the gallant General said, " after the usage he had received, he had no inclination to trouble the Meeting any farther. It might, how ever, be satisfactory to those who were so anxious on the subject of Ministers, to be informed, he did intend to have argued, that whatever, public discontent existed, had its rise in the general distress of the country, and that such distress was owing to the system pursued by the Ministers. lie would do them the justice to say, they only followed a system introduced long before their administra tion ; and it would be seen, by his reading the Address which he had intended to have offered to the Meeting, that all he required of them was, a change of those measures." General Sharpe then read his proposed Address. General of Blount-Annon, spoke briefly in support of the original Address. General SHARPE'S Am endinent not having been seconded, the original Address was, of course, carried, and the Marquis of QUEENSBERRY was requested to forward it, to which he politely consented. On the motion of General DIROM, the thanks of the meeting were unanimously voted to the Marquis of Q,(JEENSBERItY for his conduct in the Chair. THE SUN. SOLED! QUIS DICERE 7.4.1.9VM AUDEIT LONDON, SATURDAY, JANUARY 13,. 18.21. Paris Papers to the 9th instant, inclusive, ar rived at a late hour last night. On Monday, the, Chamber of Deputies was occupied in discussing the projet of law, for a provisional grant of twelfths of the contributions of 1821, to the Government. General DONNADIEU opened the debate by a vehement attack against the mea sures of the French Ministers, whom he accused of having betrayed the interests of their coun- . try, violated the principles of law and jus tice, and neglected the organization of the army. With these opinions, lie should consider it his duty to vote against the grant of even one twelfth ; and at the same time contended that Ministers could not be in want of money, as they had been enabled to offer 100,000 francs to one of their Members, lately returned from the Cri mea, for his support, who had rejected the pro posal with indignation. M. de SERRE, Keeper of the Seals, then rose, and desired the General to prove his assertions. General DONNADIEU, amid violent murmurs and cries of Order, re quested permission to name the Member, when he was interrupted by a voice from the centre, " You have designated him sufficiently."—M. PAUL de CIIATEAUDOUBLE, the Member alluded to by the General, was advancing rapidly to wards the Tribune, but stopped at the bottom of the steps. After this, M. de VI i.LELE addressed the Chamber in support of the Projet, without once referring to the charge brought against Mi nisters by General DONNADIEU.—MM. ETIENNE and CONSTANT spoke against the Projet. It was defended by Ministers; and the discussion was adjourned to the following day, after a very able speech in favour of the Grant by M.

We have at length the pleasure to see, whe t we have long expected arid ardently desired, that a Meeting took place on Thursday last at th e City of London Tavern, consisting of a large body of the most opulent and respectable cha racters which the City of London, the genera Emporium of the Globe, contains. They asses' -bled for the important, the essential, purpOse of supporting our glorious Constitution, comprehend' ing and combining whatever can secure the happy tress of man. on earth, and his hopes of future ' felicity, in the most solid of political systems,an a the purest of religions. Such a meeting, and the sentiments which their Declaration expresses , must be highly gratifying to all wise, honest , and' loyal men throughout the British Empire' It cannot but act powerfully in impressing upol l all well- disposed subjects the necessity c'‘ rallying round the Throne and the Altar, to re' sist the rebellions and blasphemous enemies of. human happiness r as well as of the welfare of the' , British Empire. The factious prints hold forth: the menace of a counter meeting, to bring forward a Declaration of a different description,but we ar e persuaded that no other body of men equally re spectable with those who composed the meetirig°‘ Thursdfty last, can be found in the City of Loa don, with different sentiments ; and that whatever other meeting may obtrude themselves in opposi" tion to that will most probably consist of seal' tious Scribblers, Itinerant Orators, and the hack' s neyed Brawlers of a desperate faction. We - stated'on WedneSday, that the great botif of: the respectable Inhabitants of Lichfield,: anxious to avert the disgrace of that town, ha', in a most spirited and patriotic manner proiest e ' t against the offensive proceedings of a Meeting g up , by two or three discontented individuals, an signed, at their solicitation, by several illiterat e paupers, in perfeCt ignorance of the-contents 01'( the papers to which their marks; or signature' s ' were respectively affixed.We stigmatized th Resolutions of that Assembly on Jan. 4th, ig containing an abgract of the principles broach e d at all the Radical' Meetings throughout th e Country, concocted by a " muddled head."--- 111 ' .the hurry of the Press " convicted" was usc ti ' for " concocted."

HAMBURDII, DEC. 28.—The following is the Declaration addressed to the Governments by the Sovereigns at Troppau, relating to the affairs at Naples and the events connected with them, which piece was delivered to the Senate of This city by the Austrian resident Minister, Baron. Nadel :• v." " The overthrow of the order of things in Spain, Portugal, and Naples, has necessarily caused the cares and the uneasi ness of the Powers who combated the revolution, and con vinced them of the necessity of putting a check on the new calamities with which Europe is threatened.. The principles which united the great' Powers of the Continent to deliver the world from the military despotism of an indiiidual issu ing from the Revolution, ought to act against the Revolu tionary Power which has just developed itself. • " The Sovereigns assembled at Troppau with this inten tion, ventures to hope that they shall attain this object.— They will take for their guides, in this peat enterprise, the Treaties which restored peace to Europe, and have.unite.d its nations together. 4 4 Without doubt the Powers have the right , to take in common general measures of precaution against those States," whose reforms engenderedby rebellion, are openly - opposed' to legitimate Governments, as example has already deMon strated, especially when the spirit of rebellion is propagated in the neighbouring States by secret agents. In consequence the Monarchs assembled at Troppau have concerted together the measures required by circumstances, and have communi-" cated to the Courts of London and Paris their intention of attaining the end desired, either by mediation or by force.— With this view,they bare invited the King of the TwO Sicilies It; repair to Laybach, to appear there as conciliator between his misguided people and the States -WilOV tranquillity is en datigered by this state of things ; and as they 'have resolved not to recognise any authority established by the seditious, it is only with the. King they can confer.. • " As the system to' be followed has no other foundotion. than Treaties already existing, they have no doubt of the as-. sent of the Courts of - Paris and London. The only Object . o f this system is to consolidate the alliance between the Sove reigns; it has no view to conquests, or to violation of the independence of other Powers. Voluntary ameliorations in :the Government will not be impeded. They desire only to maintain trantitillAty, and protect Europe from the scourge 4.t new Rrvointiosis, and to prevent them as far. as possible."
