COUNTY OFDOWN MEETING TO

ADDRESS THE QUEEN.
On Thursday last, a meeting of the nobility, gentry,
clergy, and freeholders of the county of Down, called by
the High Sheriff, in compliance with a very influential
requisition, was held in the County Court-house, for the
purpose of presenting a congratulatory address to tho
Queen, Prince Albert, and the Duchess of Kent, on
the auspicious and joyful event of the birth of an Heir
Apparent to the throne of the United Kingdom. The
meeting, though not very large, was highly respectable.
Among the gentlemen present toe noticed the following :
--B. Percaval Maxwell Esq., Hies, Sheriff of the
county ; the Marquis of Downshire;the Marquis of
Londonderry, Sir Robert Bateson, Bart., D.L., J.P. ;
James Blackwood, E4q., J.Y. ; John W. Max-
well, Eigq., D.L., J.P., &c. The High Sheriff in the
chair.

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said, he never bad
risen with greater satisfaction than he now did, to
second the motion of his Noble Friend. The Queen
had not only given profession, but had afforered signal
proof of her attachment to the Constitution, by
yielding to the will of Parliament, and dismissing from
her councils those Ministers that did not possess the
confidence of Parliament. She had done this too, in a
way that was greatly to her credit. With the blessing

taint} that there would be a scion of her line to succeed
*Out might that day be distant!) who would be brought
"up under ber virtuous instruction—who wdkdd have be-
fore him the example of a pa.eot more pure than Eliza-
beth, and more royal and queenly than Anna—under
those circumstances, her people must feel that the British
empire was placed in such a position as to afford the
utmost satisfaction. An old soldier (Lord Hill) had said,
that the young Prince was a remarkably fine boy. That
he was so could not appear wonderful to those who, like
him (Lard Londonderry), had enjoyed opportunities of
seeing his Illustrious parents. They appeared to him to
approach nearer to the description which Milton had
given of our first parents, than any other pair he had
ever seen :

- - - -
" For contemplation he and valour form'd,
For softness she and sweet attractive grace ;
Re for God only; she for God in him."
—(Cheers.) He did not think that any description of
the Royal pair could be more appropiate.
James Blackwood, Esq., moved that the following
gentlemen bo appointed a Committee to prepare ad-

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said, as the regular
business of the day ems now over, he would esteem it
as an indulgence, if the meeting would do him the fa•
your to permit him to say a few words upon a matter
that was, in some respect, personal to himself. It
had been said that lie was dispose] to take an
ultra course. That was quite absurd. He, like his
revcred brother, had ever been the advocate of civil and
religious liberty ; and how this was compatible with
ultra-Toryism it was not easy to imagine. The notion
was quite absurd. As to his own personal views, he
had been in a situation where he might have consulted
them, if he had wished. He had no hesitation what-
ever in stating, that Sir Robert peel had offered him
a high position under his Government.—(Cries of
" Hear, hear.") Ho had sent to him (the Marquis
of Londonderry) as a diplomatic person, to consult
him, among the first. He felt grateful for this. But,
when he considered how he had been mixed up with
politics—how he had been mixed up with Irish politics
—when he considered bow he had been mixed up with
these matters, he felt hound to decline accepting office ;
and he had preferred credit to office. I' had been said,
that he had declined office, because lo had no con&
