COMMON COUNCIL.

-

lIIJILDUALL. 1,11. 14.
A Court of Common Council was held this day
at the Council Chamber, Guildhall, at which the
Right Honnurable the bairn MAN OR pfCsided.
Eleven Aldermen, and near two hundred Com-
moners, attended. After the Clerk, according to
the established rule, had read over the resolutions
passed at the preceding Court,
Mr. Start. rose, and said, that, in pursuance
of a notice lie had given on a former day, he
had a *notion to submit to the consideration
of the Court, which he hoped would meet with
general approbation. He was the more inclined
to imagine that gentlemen would concur in con-
gratulating His IslajeAy on the appointment of
the present Administiation, as, during the list thir-
teen years, ti,- errant! y had suffered considerably
from the measures of the last. 'the power of France
had increased to an enormous degree ; to such a de-
,that invasion might prnb.shly bethe consegnence.
The principle of taxation had been resorted to, as a
never-failing source to support destrunive measui es ;
and the national debt had been enereased for the
purpose of carrying on the war. It was not his
intention to go into a detail of the various particu-
lars, which had, in fact, made France a military
government. lie thought it suffis.ient for him,
after a Iverting to these circumstances, merely en
make the motion ; but when it was considered,
that His Majesty, fur the good of his people, had
chosen the present administration, and that that
choice had met with the approbation of the Hair
Apparent of the Throne. he was convinced it
could not be rrjefled. He trusted that the first
measures of the new Ministry, would tend to check
the growing power of France t and he hoped they
would never treat for peace until it could be made
nn a secure and honourable foundation. If in-
vasinn were attempted by the enemy. he trusted our
doers would be kept in such a condition, that they
mirot imerpnse, and des:env them, before they set
taw Wit son our shore. And by any thence,
taey sonuld make a landing, and that their chief,
I.ke a rcond Hannibal, should invest our capital
with his troops, he fetvently hoped such would be
ties spirot of the meinn at large, that every English-
nsan wosild become a co.opetitor for the purchase of
the very ground where .:,•• camp of the enemy stood.
If any person would ask ss!,at good resulted immedi-
ately from the appointment of the new Administta-
ionf be would ans...et, that by their creation, all party
was destroyed. 'Mere was now ho party in the
country, the grfat leading men were all unanim-sus.
