OF THE UNDERSIGNED LtvERyNIEN OF THE
ii Ty OF LONDON.

• ithty it please your Royal Ifightoss,
We, his Maje Sty's most dutiful and loyaVtiobjects, the un-
Orsigned Liverymen of the City of London, humbly apprJach
your Royal Highness at "this important' crisis, to renew our
assurance of attachment to his NfaLosty, and his Illustrious
House; and to teNtifyonr horror and utter,dctestation Of the
villainous and execrable attempt upon the life of your Royal
Highness, on your return frinu opening the Session Of the
Imperial Parliament.
While, in common with our fellow-stddeets, we feel, in the
must sensible manner, the distresses %vhicii afflict the Country,
'Out which, we trust, 'will be only of a temporary nature, we
are convinced many of them result from the dispensations of
Providenee; whilst others may be justly attributed to the re-
turn of the Nation, after a long season of Vilarfare, to the
desired state of Peace.

' We cannot, however, but recollect. that the unti!uaily pro.
tracts I and expensive Whr teas an arduous struggW fur na-
tional lintependence; ptiserved, through the blessing of
Almighty God nu' the exertions of his Majesty', Arms, .by
Victories which achieved the Freednth of the World, and.
raised the United Kingdom beyond its former elevation IQ the
scale of I•;atiutis. •

The page of History impresses on our minds.ats indelible
conviction of the pre-eminent excellence of the British-Con-
stitution—the best Inheritance of Englishmen—the Guardian
of aril Rights—and the Security of their Freedom. Our
regard for this venerable Fabric makes ns view with strong
suspicion the crude projects of rash innovators. who, under
the specious pretence of meliorating, would -risk the safety
of that well-tried System of Legislation, which, for upwards
of a' century, under the Illustrious House of Brunswick, bus
been productive of more happiness and security to us than
were ever enjoyed by any nation in the annals of mankind :
and we regret with apprehension and abhorrence, attempts
to mislead and corrupt the judgment of our fellow-subjects,
tending to outrage and tumult, by exciting sentiments of
malignant hostility against the Constitutional Authorities—
menacing the destruction of all social order, and pregnant
with consequences of the most alarming character.
We contemplate will' admiration tits manly fortitude Of
-our ancestors, who, unawcd by power, and unmoved by the
clamours of faction, pursued in Parliament a steady course. of
wise deliberation and energetic action. We have equal reli-
ance- on the talent and virtue of their successors; and we
refer now, with the fullest confidence, the, state of our na-
tional Representation to the knowledge and experience of
the Legislature, assured that in its wisdom it will adopt such
measures as will conduce to the happiness and welfare of the
nation.

Desirous of that tranquillity to which his Majesty's duti-.
lot and loyal subjects are entitled tinder n Constitution so
justly their boast, anti noxious to strengthen the legal sources
of protection by. every means consistent with its principles,
we again assure your Royal Highness of our veneration for
Mat Constitution,—etif regard for the person of. your Royal
Highness- bur in your A dministration,-- and of
our reliance on the patriotisnr and wisdour of the Imperial
Parliament ; assisted that the present burthens of the people
will be token into most serious consideration, and that every
retrenchment of expenditure which can hepatic for their al-
leviation, consistent with the safety of Cie State, and with
the entire preservation of national faith, Will be carried into
effect.
