" To HIS aoynt. HIGHNESS THB PRINCE OP WALES,
REGENT OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OP GREAT
BRITAIN AND IRELAND.
The Humble, llutitul, and Loyal Address of the Lord
Mayot, Aldermen, and Commons, of the City of 'Lou-
don, in Common Council assembled.
" May it iiiC;ee your. Royal Highness;
. -04 We, his illajeatra mest2dutifol and loyal Subjects, the
Lord Mayor, Aldernmv, and Cumulous, of the City of London,
in Common Council assembled, approach your Royal High-
ness with renewed assurances of unalterable affeeo.oii and re'
gard ; and with the warmest congratulations upon the in-
creased prospect which recent events have afftirded, of the
complete deliverance of Europe from a yoke must disgraceful,
galhng, and oppressive.
" When we recall to ourirememtrance the intimate com-
mercial intercourse which has for upwards of two centuries
existed between this country and the United States of Hol-
laud, the similarity of religious opinions, and the near iden-
tity of political interests, which heretofore, un roost occasions,
bad united both nations in endeavours to maintain the libei -
ties mid independence of Europe, we cannot but view, with
the bignest admiration and 'sympathy, the spontaneous efforts
which that gallant people have evinced to *hake off the chains
of the Rte-r of France, and to recur to the govermnant of
their free constitution, under the guidance of a Prince of the
House of Orange mid Nassau, by the assistance of whose illus-
trious ancestors their original establishment as a nation was
achieved; these elforts have been timely aided by your Royal
Highness, and we indulge the most sanguine hope, that a re-
newal of the fo•ttier alliance and connection between both
countries, will be the happy result of this great and signal
revolution.
" It is with the highest satisfaction we also have witnessed
the deliverance of the ancient inheritance of your Royal
Highness's august Family, from the dominion of the enemy ;
and we should be wanting in proper feelings of gratitude for
the innumerable blessings we bare enjoyed, by the protec-
tion of our civil and religious liberties, under the reigns of
the Prince* of the House of Brunswick, were we insensitle to
the gratification which must arise to your Royal Highness
from the return of the allegiance of Hanover to our belovcd
Sovereign, but as Britons we mutt alto contemplate this
event with the greatest exultation.
" We cannot quit the presence of your Royal highness,
without offering our humble tribute of admiration to the
recent additional proofs of skill and valour, displayed bytke
Allied Artniai under Field-Marshal the Marquis ut IVelling.
ton, within the boundaries of ancient Vance.
"It would be but faint commendation of the reiterated
glorious exploits of that great Commaive r, and his gallant
forces, were we on this occasion to express our feelings in the
usual language of panegyric. Ilis and their' deeds will he
perpetuated iu Rummer infinitely more durable than we can
hope to record them—they will exist in the yap of hi3tory
until the latest period of tone.
" We have only further to renew our assumeol to your
Royal Higioress, of our patios*. and corde4 ‘ttrpo, t itl the
great cause in wadi we are engaged. Our fervent prayers
shall continue to be °tiered up, that the wonderful events
which have taken plaice under the short but most brilliant
Administration of your Royal Highness, in the name of _ our
'revered Sovereign, may lead to a safe, honourable, and per-
manent peace, "Signed by order of Court,
" H EN Rl' WOODTHORPE."
To Which his Royal Highness returned the fol-
lowing most gracious Answer
" I return yea my warmest thanks fur this loyal and affec.-
tionate Address.

" The xletermination manifested throughout the United
Provinces a the Netherlands to shake off the yoke of France,
and to re-establish in their Goverment that illustrious
to whom theturiginally owed their liberties, was well
calculated to call forth amongst all classes .of his Majesty's
subjects, that sympathy and exultation in which you so large-
ly participate, and which strongly evinces the charac'eristie
generosity of a free people. •
"4 look forward with the utmost saticfaction. .aniG-
deuce to the renewal of the same friendly Intercourse and
connection between that country and Great Britain, which
experience has roved to be equally important to the true
iuterests both, and to the Independence and security of
Europe.
" sentiments which you have expressed on the dell-
Vcrunce of the ancient inheritance of my family from the do-
minion of the enemy, could nut fail to be peculiarly grateful
to my feelings.
"That iiiiexampled.career of victory, which, through the
favour of Divide Providence, has attended the arms of his
Majesty, midst( the-command of Field Marshal the Marquis
of Wellington, and those of his Vajesty's brave Allies on the
Continent, affords the fairest prospect of ultimate and .com-
plete slwee%S; and 1 am peximuled that you are animatedl,tv
45 firm conviction-that it is only by following up with unabated
rigour the advantages ulready'obtaltied, that the great ob•
jest can be accomplished of testuring to this corral), and to
Europe the blessings of an homiurable and lasting Peace."
