THE KING AND QUEEN OF THE
BELGIANS.

The general committee, organised for the purpose of
making arrangements for the presentation of an address to
the King and Queen of the Belgians on their intended visit
to London, hold a meeting on Saturday at the committee
rooms, 21, Albert-gate, Hyde-park. Captain Wells, R.N.,
who presided in the absence of the Duke of Wellington,
having opened the proceedings, Captain Charles Mercier,
the hon secretary, said that the address which it had been
proposed to present to the King and Queen of the Bel-
gians had already received the signatures of 170 of the
chief magistrates of counties, cities, and towns in Eng-
land and Wales, Ireland, and Scotland. The Duke of
Cambridge had desired him to convey to the committee
his Royal Highness's good wishes for the success of the
project specified. Several offers of subscription to pro-
mote the object of the meeting were announced. After
the transaction of some further formal business, the meet-
ing terminated with the customary vote of thanks to the
chairman.

Sir A. Conyngham, Commander of the Forces in Ireland
the Mayors of Halifax and Dover, and Mr. Ounliffe Brooks,
M.P., have joined the general committee, and the sub-
scription (limited to one shilling each for volunteers and
others), for the purchase of a silver casket to contain the
address to ba presented to their Majesties, progresses most
favourably.
