PORTSMOUTH MEETINC.

On Wednesday n in-cting of the Co-poration of
the Bctangh or 1.4.1,4w0i1, culivened by the
Va 3 (Elward Coite:r, Esq.) to consequence of
• requisition which had bera addressed to him by
several Me-iiihrs of the Corporation, to consider of
•grteing t., tis Address to his MAjeoty; upon the
present st de of the couctry, slid to.pray him to
dismiss I.i. Ministers
.Lout his Councils; al.u, to
send a readable Address thereon to. the floosie of
Commons. The Mayor being culled to the Chair,
the subject of the meeting was opened by
Mr. Alderman 119 WARD. who took a retrospec.
liv. view of the mom prominent of the 1/ossifies of
Ministers, end particularly., or, ,those pursued by
them with respect to the prosecution of the Queen,
all which he considered as being injurious to the
welfare and best interests of the country ; sod
therefore moved—
,. That • respectful Address on the preseat easetialietary
state of the country, and ua the policy and niessares of the
resent Administrating, be presented to his Majesty, pray.
iva his Majesty to dismiss his Ministers from his Councils.*
Mr. Jacoson seconded the motion.
The lion. Sir Geo. Gamy objected to the mo.
lion, because he could not but consider that ally
Address pretested to the King, in which the
Queen's mime is mentioned, must be personally
offeitsive to his Majesty; and, therefore, he (Sir
George) could not coincide ia-the motion. lie did
not approve of the present Ministers, and he hod
refused Ins signature to the County Address—it
was Iris opiwou, that these Addresses are doing
mateitel tojuty its the country.
Mr. SOArsit spoke in defence of Ministers, and
in cnnoleuinstion of the Queen. lie was fully ;ter.
suaded, that ill all their proceedings in the matter
of the Quern, Ministers had been ififlueuced by
no other motive than their duty to their country ;
and lie believed the Queen to be what a majority of
the Muse of Peers had declared her to be.
Mr. AIERRITT considered Ministers as fully de.
sewing the confidelice of the country as any men
that could be chosen from among the existing po.
Mind parties.
The motion being put, a division took place,
whet, it was carried by more than two to one.
M. HOWARD then moved a Resolution to ogre*
to a Petition to the House of Commons, to con.
for mity with the sentiments he had expressed; which
being done, the Petition was read and adopted.
Mr. Alderman Jong CARTER, ALP. then
moved, that the Address to the King be presented
to his Alsjesty by Lord Erskine. Mr. C. prefaced
the motion by exhibiting his Lordship's port and
indeoendent conduct when the Represientative of
this Borough, and dwelt with peculiar felicity of ex-
pression on its Lorthilip's able, constitutionst, and
manly opposition to Ministers in their proceedings
on the prosecution of the Queen.
The motion was monied untwist-musty, as was the
following one :—Tint the Petition to the House of
Commons be presented by the Members for the Bo-
rough, Admiral Mar klialu stud Julio Carter, Esq.
Thanks were voted to the Chairman for his able
and impartial milldam, and the meeting disstilved.

The following Requitition has been sent to the
LORD MAYOR:—
