IZI 13;
iLe loyal and liberal portion of the inhabitants of
.ois city are aq on the qui vivc in consequence of the
recent conduct of her -Majesty in repelling
neering attempt of Sir Robert Peel and the Tories to
possess themselves of the absolute power and control
not only of the Government, but even over the conduct
and actions of the Queen herself ; " but of evil cometh
good" some times. The strong declaration of her Ma-
jesty of attachment to a Liberal 'Ministry, which recent
proceedings have called forth, will serve to re-unite and
re-invigorate the Reform party. No man, be his
political predilections what they may, can fail ad-
miring the firm and independent conduct of her
Majesty in • refusing, on Constitutional principles,
to give up the appointments of the immediate at-
tendants on the Royal person, and there can be no
doubt that at the public meeting of the inhabitants
of Bristol a response will be made to the high feelina
which prompted her Majesty in expressing her opinion
that the demand of Sir Robert Peel " was contrary to
usage and repugnant to her feelings." It is fully hoped
and expected by the Liberal party in this city, that the
Ministry will now pursue their onward course with a
firm step, turning neither to the right hand nor to the
:eft—nor halting by the way—but walk straight to the
goal to carry into effect the desires of the great majo-
rity of the constituet.t body of this kingdom—" Peace,
Reform, Retrenchment."

A very large meeting is expected. The signatures of
a large number of the most respectable inhabitant-s of
the city are attached to the requisition.

The Dutiful and Loyal Address of the Inhabitants of
Snenton, in the CoUnty of Nottuigharn. To the
Queen's Most Excellent Majesty—
May it please your Majesty,
We, 3 our Majesty's most dutiful subjov.ts Snenton,
in the county of Nottingham, most humbly and du-
tifully approach your MAresty's sacred person with thi
our address, believing., as we do, that your Majesty has
the real good and happiness of the people of these realms
sincerely at heart, and that truth and justice may be ad-
ministered to all !

We, your Majesty's most dutiful sulejlects have long
viewed with alarm and disgust the vio'ent and uupar-
donable efforts of the Tories to seize tiptei the reins of
the Government of the country, thereby to place your
Majesty's sacred person under a domination, re once dis-
graceful and degrading to the Crown mat dignity of the
country ; believing, as we do, that the Patece would be-
come the nursery of a faction of deeply interested in-
triguing courtiers, who, in their hearts, leave no loyalty
to the Crown—no sympathies towards the people.
We, your Majesty's dutiful and affectionate subjects
cannot but view with fearful anxiety the stbtlety and
cfzy cunning of your Majesty's pretended friends, who,
undez a mask of violent zeal for Church and State,
would usurp the powers of the Government, end render
your Majesty subservient to their ambitious views by
depriving your Majesty of the kind and affectionate ser-
vices and advice of those friends in whom alone your
Majesty can now only confide or repose confidence, and
by whom you arse at present surrounded and shielded
from the machinations of a guilty power-loving faction,
whose acts in the government—whose waste end profu-
sion—whose long and unholy wars first laid the founda-
tion of these eventful times of difficulty and danger,
which they have now neither the power nor the inclina-
tion to prevent or alter ; who have the effrontery to op-
pose all ,and every measure calculated to restore the
Government to the confidence of the people, by acts of
reform and justice!!
We, your Majest3's dutiful and loyal subjects, can-
not but view with awful forebodings, the base, the un-
kind, the unmanly attempt by Sir Robert Peel (the
interested mouth-piece of faction), to dictate to your
Majesty terms on which they were ready to accept
office, which, if complied with, would have lowered.
your Majesty's dignity in the eyes of the nation, and,
rendered the palace little better than a royal prison,
under the surveillance of titled minions and spies !!
Under these considerations we, yourMajosty's loyal and
dutiful subjects, most fervently pray, that your Majesty
be pleased, from henceforth, never again to place your
Royal confidence in the hands of that faction who
have had the temerity to attempt to force themselves
into power, at the cost of those feelings which have
rendered your Majesty dear to a loyal and affection-
ate people, who dread the idea of being under the con-
trol and violent rule of a faction whose acts have brought
the country to despair and ruin.
Sincerely thanking your Most Gracious Majesty for
having rejected the terms offered by Sir Robert Peel,
we. your Majesty's most dutiful and Itiyal subjects,
pray that your reign and person may long prove a bress-
ing to the people of England.
We remain, as in duty bound, your Majiasty's most
/Affectionate and loyal subjects, &c.
Snenton, near Nottingham, Nay 15,153 A.
