DECLARATION OF THE LIVERYMEN OF
LONDON.

AT an Adjorarned MEETING of LIVERY-
MEN, held at the London Tavern on Friday evening,
the 4th of May, 18 to,
CHRISTOPHER SMITH, Esq. Alderman, in the Chair,
The following Address was agreed to, and ordered to be left
at this Tavern for the Signatures of those Liverymen who
May approve of the same.
ADDRESS.
At a periOd when attempts ore industriously made to,vilify
and degrade the Legislature by the most unfounded Calum-
nies, aid when resistance to the authority of the House of
Commons has endangered the peace of the metropolis, and
rendered necessary the interposition of military aid. The Un-
dersigned Liverymen of London, disapproving of the Reso-
lutions and Proceedings of the Common Hall, held this day
at Guildhall, confidently appeal to their Fellow-Citizens on
the necessity,of publicly recording their sentiments on the
occasion.
Tnat they view with sorrow and indignation the insidious
efforts which continue to be made to alienate the affedions of
the people frotn the Government ; that they cannot remain
' tranquil and passive spectators of these mischievous endea-
vours, which having failed in traducing the charader of the
Sovereign, are now direded to the production oi contempt
and distrust.of that important and essential part of the Legis-
lathe Body, the House of Commons, for the more certain
a!, i etPelual introduction of that system of anarchy which
has destroyed the last vestige of civil liberty on the Conti-
nent of Europe.
That the condua of these factious individuals is in dired
opposition to the principles which they protess, and contrary
to those maxims which have contributed to promote the hap-
pincss of mankind ; for though they pretend to be influenced
by the genuine principles of liberty, yet they refuse to others
that freedom of sentiment and opinion which they exercise
themselves without restriction, limit or controul ; and
though violently clamorous for Reform, their recent conduct
affords a manifest proof that their real object is the subver-
sion of the Constitution ; and that they seek to accomplish
this destruCtive projed by misleading the minds of the ig-
noraut, and by inflaming the passions of the desperate.
That these inflammatory proceedings, dangerous at all
times, are peculiarly so at the present awful and very ardu-
ous crisis, and, unless actively resisted by the united effiarts
of those well-disposed and well-affeded persons, of whatever
party, who adire re the principles of the Revolution, which
happily for the raligious and civil liberties of Britons, led to
the eat iblishment of the House of Brunswick on the Throne
of these Realms, and who r vere the Constitution as then
lay Iv existi,g by 1.4,,y, May pryclue,. Sir/
quences fatal 'to our Freedom and Lndependence as a Nation;
it being the invariable practice of the Ruler of France, to
distract and divide the inhabitants of those Countries which
he is so desirous to conquer and destroy.
That, under these circumstances, the undersigned Livery-
men esti() it their Fellow-Citizens to bury in oblivion all
parry feelings ; to rally round the Throne of their venerable
Monarch ; and to prove to the world than he has not any
bubjeas moot loyal than h's faithful Citizens of London, or
more grateful for the paternal adedion with which he has
watched over the happiness and welfare of his people.
That they rely with confidence on their Representatives in
Parliarnent,convinced that every retrenchment consistent with
the public safety and prosperity will be made ; and they trust
that the Members of both Houses of Parliament will never be
deterred by the intimidating influence of the multitude on the
one hand, or by any unconstitutional interposition of the
Crown on the other, from the adoption ofsuch moderate sys-
tems of Reform as may be requisite, from the progress of time,
and as may be consistent with the principles of the Consti-
tution, and the Laws of the Land.

That in reviewing the relative situation of this country
with others, the Livery of London have much to rejoice at,
and little to regret ; they wish the people to corn pare the bles-
snags wh:chthey now enjoy with those of former periods, or
with those which are now possessed by the inhabitants of"
other countries ; and to examine whether civil and religious
liberty, the secure possession of property, the rqual and im-
partial administration of justice, were ever enjoyed in great-
er purity than at the present time.
Such being the happiness which, under Divine Providence,
the Citizens of London now possess, in common with the
rest of his Majesty's subjects, this appeal to their patriotism,
will not be made in vain—their good sense will point out to
tli.nn the propriety of concurring in this public expression of
the principles and loyalty of such of the Livery as disapprove
and condemn the proceedings of the Common Hall; and the
necessity of avowing, unequivocally, their fixed determina-
tion to support the Constitution of the Country as by Law
established ; to maintain unimpaired the Privileges of both
Houses of Parliament; to resist all factious attempts at in-
govat ion ; to place their unshaken confidence in the virtues of
the King ; in the wisdom of the Legislature ; and the purity
pf the judges of the. Land ; and to exert their best endeavours
to imptess on the minds of ail those who are connected with
them; a reverence tor, and " willing obedience" to the Laws,
and ale unalterable attachment fur true interests of their
Country.
