Mr. DOWSING (the Senior Churchwarden, no

body of his 4444 eta on such an occasion
as the present. The Rtneitition would be read to

Mr. BLACK rose. Ile felt much eratifisd by
the commanding attitude which the liberal part of
the inhabitants had assumed on this occasion, and
he hailed it as a proof of the abhorrence with which
the present proceedings against the Queen were
viewed hif them. Those proceedings were without
parallel in the history of this tountry, and were alike
desttuctive of the best interests both of the Csowo
and the people.—(Hear, !rear.)—Already had the
nation pronounced this opinion, except, indeed, that
portion of it who were immediately subservient to
the Crown, and consequently could not give their
real sentiments without risking the loss of thr;r
places; therefore if the public feeling were to be
taken as a criterion, the Queen might be a.iJ, nut.

the contrary—notwithstanding the nauseating con-
tents of their filthy green bag—iirowithatainling
their equivocal, their inconsistent witnesses—to he
already acquitted of the crimes imputed to her.
lier Majesty, it was true. had many enemies; but
that those enemies, or indeed ally enemies to the
Queen, could be found in this parish, ought ria-
touatily excite some surprise—(lleue, hear)—..t,4
it was with pain that he informed them that WC.'
persons existed, but he prophecied that they were
really too insignificant tb require any notice, or
to excite the least apprehension. There was
an honour in bold, personal opposition, and we
were eenerully inclined rather to respect an indi.
yidwal who oppose 4 us face to face, and goal,-
pled with our arguments manfully, whilst an the
other hand we were apt to view all anonymous op.
position, especially if marked by isiveteracy, as 'h-
effustons of petty malice, or wilful slander. 'rinee
honourable means had been ',sorted to by the
Queen's enemies in this parish, arid as they did out
think fit to coma these to state their opinion., snit
enlighten the meeting with a specimen of their
oratorical abilities, he would give a specimen of
their composition, which had been forwarded 'u
him by the post. He understood the Churchsv..r•
dens and other Gentlemen who were friendly to
the Addrese, had received similar communications;
the letter ran thus:—
" To the worthy Inhabitants of St. John's, that intend fo
tole •it Address to the Queen's must rxcrlieut Majesty—l; t

will declare tier innoccat too. Eiscoutagc your wives unit
daughters to follow tier example.
" Yours, and
'• A FRIEND TO THE QUEEN."
For his own part he would " encourage los wife
and daughters" to be like air; he would wish theca
to imitate her benevolence, her greatness rif mind,
and that magnaisimity which the nowt trying bait:-
toms proved her top ossess.—(Grew/ upplwase.)—
Mr. Black then proceeded to take a retrospective
view of her Majesty's sufferings glace her that lifa
rival in this counisy. When scarcely yet a bunts.,
she was doomed to be Iriven from her home, while
her conduct was still as scrupulously wetelod Ll,l'
as though she had beta the mush indulgtd,.the
most tenderly used wife in the netion.—/Cistert )

GENTLEMEN—it is with the utmost satisfaction that I re.
eeive from the Inhabitants of ltyde and the Visitors thereof
this ilntiful and affectionate Address.
I fully appri elate the loyal sririt which has cAiled forth
this declaration of their warm and affectionate feelings to
tiny person, and to the House of Brunswick ; and I honour
those sentiments which breathe so indent ■ud so devoted ca
ailachnieut to our excellent Constitution.
I rely with full confidence on the good sense of the peo-
ple; knowing that at all times, and in all cases, evHdesigu-
iug individuals may by artifices create partial and tempo-
rary delusions; hut that the strrliog sense stud inmate loyslty
of the great body of the uatimi are ever guided by the all-
ruling dictates of 'mud reason, and the influence of truth.
I have derived great pleasure from witnessing and ad-
miring that superior system of our naval service, which has
maintained, with so much glory, the maritime pre.emincore
of the empire its war, and so essentially contributed to its
commercial prosperity in peace.
I thank the good people of Ryde end its iitinily for their
cordial prayers for the conservation of that health which 4
smiler the blessing of Divine Providence, I hope to preserve
for she benefit of my people, and the meiutcnance of the
Constitution of the empire.
