HIS MAJESTY having been graciously
pleased, under his Royal Sign Manuel, to express his
approbation of the Constitution and Regulations of THIS
SOCIETY, recently submitted to his consideration—Notice is
hereby given, That a GENERAL. MEETING of the
FELLOWS of the SOCIETY will be holden at No. 4,

By order of the Provisional Council,

JIEYGATE, Mayor.
A COMMON COUNCIL, holden in the CHAMBER of
the GUILDHALL of the CITY of LONDON, on TUES-
DAY, the 10th day of June, 1023,
RESOLVED,
THAT National Independence being to States
what practical Liberty is to Individuals, this Court con-
siders the attempt by one State to overthrow the Independence
of another, as an attack upon the whole civilized world ; and
views, with indignation and abhorrence,the unprincipled and
unprovoked Invasion of the Peninsula, for the wicked purpose
of forcing upon the People of Spain Institutions not only hos-
tile to their Rights and Liberties, but degrading to this en-
lightened age; and further considers, that the restless and ty.
rannical conduct of the present French Government towards
Spain, is more destructive of the peace, and more dangerous
to the independence and welfare of Europe, than the arbi.
trary measures of Nepoleon against that Country. The Court,
therefore, is of opinion, that so flagrant a violation of National
Rights should be execrated, and resisted by every liberal and
it.ee people.
Resolved—That this Court sincerely and deeply sympa-
thizes with the brave and suffering people of Spain, and zea-
lously applauds their patriotic determination, rather to perish
in their righteous struggle for Independence and Freedom,
than submit to the degradation, persecution, and insulting
wrongs, that would inevitably result from the destruCtion of
their Constitutional and Representatkve Government. This
Court, therefore, cheerfully contributes the sum of One Thou-
sand Pounds, from this City's Cash, to assist the Spanish Na-
tion in their exertions to triumph, in. their glorious conflict with
the ambitious Burbon Government of France.
Resolved—That a Committee be appointed to superintend
the application of this grant, and that the Chamberlain of this
City be instructed to pay the said sum of One Thousand Pounds
as the Committee may direct; this Court having a firm re-
liance that the example of the Corporation of London will be
readily followed by other Corporations and Public Bodies
throughout the United Kingdom.
