no pup gun plots here, and no stones. His Royal Highness
should have uo occasion to base thick plate glass to his wine

the other Whigs in Parliament, to insult his Royal Highness.
From himself he would meet only with the mildest language.
He had no doubt but in the newspapers to-morrow he should
he misrepresented, and the persons now surrounding him
would be cAlled the rabble. There were at any rate some

Court end of the towtivfor what he knew, there might be some
courtiers present. He next observed upon the great extra-

Mr. Hunt only replied, by repealing, " Yon are a noun-
duel ;" and subserpiently airre the same gentleman the hand-
some title of " Tailor to the Prince."

The speech having been concluded,-Mr. Hunt proceeded
through Pall Mall, up St. James's street and Pi.cadilly,

the arrival of Mr. Hunt, by a gentleman isi naval uniform, at
t hat moment passing alongthe street, accompanied by two other
gentlemen out of uniform. The mob, Immediately conceiv-
ing that it cotild be no other than Capt. Sir Murray Maxwell,
followed him, and assailed b'm on all aides by their housings
and hissings. The officer immediately took off his bat, and
waved it several times. This exasperated them still more,
and for some minutes a continued howl tilled the air. At abcitit
half past twelve o'clock a general cry of •' Hunt, liant," an-
nounced the approach of the demagogue, ^nd his nag was
seen waving doss is the Strand. Mr. limit at length appeared
in an open carriage, much more elegant and more aribstan-

preceding day. As he came towards Charing CIO6S, he was
greeted by the multitude.

shortly addres•ed the people. He said, that as he had 15
day's wails before him or the hustings, he should not now tres-

A prison from the crowd cuffed oat, e' Hunt, pay your
debts...

Mr. !lint.—" So 1 awe • let every man pay his debts. 3
know of no debt which have contrarted which I have not
hunonrably paid. Every one knews that the Law will make
us pay. That man. 1 suppose, is one of the Boss rest run
Ill'I'A." Ile would now give way to Ele geotieimaa who had
proposed him as a candidate for the city of Westminster at
the Crenvo and Anchor tavern. and every word that gentle-
man uttered hr thought he could answer for.

Mr. Marley then rose upon one of the seats of the carriage,
and in the must vehement manner enforced upon the people
the siecesvity of supporting Mr. Hunt, and represented the
dreadful alternative ofloseng their liberties for the uext seven
years. He cent on with the sante warmth to describe the
manner in which his noble minded friend had been calstrani-
died by his enemies ; and he concloded his eloquent harangue ,
by awning Sir F. Burdett of having shuffled on some occa-
slot!, and refused to be liar friend of the people.
Mr. Hunt again rose to say a few words, but was prevented
for a short time by a person in the crowd attempting to speak.
He then continued ; and, pointing to the.person who had in-
terrupted him, said, " Hoist hint up into the cart, or turn him
out ;he a some spy belonging to Government, sent herr to
create a disturbance." (The name of Oliver was the gene-'

It was not until near four O'clock that Mr. Hunt (although
he had so:cagily inotisised to he there at two o'clock) inadel
his appearance before St. rletnent's church in the Strand.--
