The following Address and Answer are reprinted, too correct er-
roneous impressions, which have led to mistake; and to show how
distinct are the objects of the Two Subscriptions.
The one in the City is exclusively a Compliment to tho Duke of
Wellington for his services in " promoting the building of London
Bridge, and making the approaches thereto."
The other is intended to be a Memorial of his thleat Military
Achievements.

THE WELLINGTON STATUE IN THE CITY.
(From the Times. )
On Monday, the 12th of June, 1837, the Lord Mayor, the Duke
of Rutland, Mr. Alderman 111. Wood, Mr. Charles Barclay, Sir
F. Trench, Mr. R. L. Jones, and Mr. Rainbow (the Honorary
Secretary), waited upon the Duke of Wellington, as a Deputation
from the Subscribers to this splendid Civic Tribute with the follow-

ing Address :
" My Lord Duke,
" The -Merchants, Bankers, Traders, and others, of London,
have thought it due to your Grace, for the great interest your Grace
evinced in forwarding those splendid improvements which now '
adorn the City of London, especially those parts leading to London.
Bridge, to cause a Subscription to be promoted for the purpose of
erecting an Equestrian Statue of your Grace in the immediate
neighbourhood of those great works, and in the centre of this great
City. In this view they have been aided by many Noblemen and
Gentlemen ; and we, a Deputation from the Committee who have
the management of the plan, have to make your Grace acquainted
with the progress of their design. And they have also great pleasure
in further informing your Grace that they have selected that emi-
nent artist, Sir F. Chantrey, to execute the work, hoping that your
Grace will allow him to communicate with you as occasion may re-
quire."
The Duke, who received the Deputation very kindly, replied :—.
" My Lord Mayor, and Gentlemen,
" I have been much flattered by the honour which has been done
me by the Merchants, Bankers, graders, and others, of London, in
having determined to erect an Equestrian Statue of me in the
centre of the City, aided as they have been in this project by many
Noblemen and Gentlemen.
" I was the Minister of the late King, and I did no more than
my duty upon the occasion to which you have been pleased to refer,
in promoting to the utmost of my power the orders of the King,
his Government, and of Parliament, by assisting the City of Lon-
don to complete their magnificent work, London Bridge, and the
approaches thereto on both sides of the river.
" I performed this duty zealously, as I have all others on which
I have been employed in the public service ; and it is gratifying to
me to know that my conduct upon that occasion attracted your at-
tention and gave you satisfaction."
