to receive them.
This speech was accompanied throughout with
the strongest demonstrations of attachment and
respect for the speaker.
Mr. STEVENS rose and said, he felt himself in a
very honourable situation this slily. The time had
been when be appeared before them single-handed,
but now he was surrounded by Gentlemen who had
assisted him in preparing the busineis and drawing
up the resolutions ; and he found that in the Ward
the cause of independence was advancing, that
men's minds were becoming more enlightened, and
that every day they were more ready to oppose
conduct hostile to the rights sod liberties of this
country.—(depplanse.)—But the new situatiou.

MEETING OF CRIPPLEGATE WARD.

In consequence of a Requisition, addressed by
several of the inhabitants of the parish of St.
Giles without Cripplegate, to Alderman Wood
(the Alderman of the Ward), a Meeting had beets
vilvertimed to be htld in the parish church yester-
day, at two o'clock. to consider of the proceedings
of the Magistrates and military at ftlanchester.
The crowds, however, who began to assemble for
some time previous to that hour, were astonished
to observe placards affixed to the church doors,
signed by the two Churchwardens (William Beaver
and Brown), stating, that they had not
received the least • oration of the design of hold-
ing the Meeting in the church till they saw public
notice given of it ; and that as, from the great pub-
licity given to the notice, they eapeeted a great
body of people to be present, and apprehended
much consequent injury to the church if they were
admitted into it. they did not think themselves
justified in opening it for the purpose. Accord-
ingly the place of meeting was altered (at least fir
the purpose of consateseing the proceedings) to the
Quest-house, and the time to three o'clock. About
a quarter of an hour before that time, Alderman
Wood entered the room and took the Choir. Time
Requisition having been rend, on the worthy Al-
derman's suggestion. and as the room would not
contain one-truth of the people assembled, a mo-
tion was mule slid carried to adjourn the Meeting
to the church-yard. A table and a few chairs had
Leen placed uu u large tomb-stone, chive to the
hack of the church. lit a few minnies the Chair-
man resumed his station, and time business pro-
ceeded. The somber of persons present. we
suppose, WAS upwards of two thousand, and
bum beginning to end the utmost decorum land
quiet was observed.
Alderman WOOD first addressed the Meeting.
Isail. fist of all, to express his regret that they
were obliged to meet in the open air. He believed
it was the first occasion for such a necessity in the
aloud& of the Ward—it was certainly in his memory
.—for though various were the meetings held by the
Ward of late years, to complain of abuses, and pe-
tition for redress of grievances ; and though demur-
rers hail often, in the first instance, been made by
the Churchwardens, to affording the use of the
Church—yet it invariably had happened, till this
day, that when they considered well the duties of
their elation, that they were sot possessed of any
power, its their own right—that they were not to
take any political part--but were merely appointed
by their fellow-citizens to perform certain business,
they had yielded, and come into the wishes of those
wit() appointed them. He had been much sur-
pri-ed at time conduct of the Churchwerdens in thldis
instance. lie could not have soppused they wou
act en foolishly as to close the church against
the Ward. He had thought otherwise of them.
He never knew of a man is their situation to hove
done so. Once indeed a predecessor of theirs had
tiliewn a disposition to do so. He was a contractor
with Governinent.—(Langlarev.)—The occasion of
the Ward's meeting was the Walt:limn ezpedi-
ties.. They wished to complain of the waste of
blood and treasure- which thst measure had caused.
The contractor refused to give the church, but on
second thoughts he saw his weakness, and declined
to persevere. lie was sorry that those two men had
thonlat proper to deviate 1 all former example.
They haul issued placards to explain and justify
!bete views of the case; but be could appeal to all
the Gentlemen who heard him, whether, when the
whale interior of the church, upper and lower, had
been filled by people on similar occasions, any time
i.liglitrvt injury had been duce to it. Ile was
titian!, therefore, mhie Churchwardens had not been
iillfienceil by any such reasons as they expressed,
bah that thry had been acted on by some others,
nufl made the itistrunieuts of their designs.—
(Cheeuing )-lle thought the business could not
pass over without some strong notice tieing taken of
such an extraordinary procedure. As fur himself,
being the Alderman of time Ward, as soon as he hail
beard of their intention, lie bud made all haste to
until. It was his duty, and if necessary, he would
f;iterfully attend them in any place, even on the
