COMMON HAI.L.

The LORD MAYOR having refused to comply
with the requisition, calling firm him to appoint
a day for holding a Common Hall, for the pur-
pose of taking into consideration the late lament-
able occurrences at Manchester, the Livery have
determined to adopt a course pursued by their an-
cestors in 1769, 'when John 'Turner,. Esq. was
Lind Mayor of London. On that occasion, in
consequence of the existence of some supposed
public grievance, a requisition w©s signed and
presented 11150 Liverymen to the Lord Mayor,
requiting him to call a Common Hall, with is
view to take the subject into consideration. His
Lordship having some doubts as to the expediency
of obeying the wishes of the Livery, said he should
take time to consider whether be should call the
Common Hall or not, and appointed a day for the
Deputation again to wait upon him to receive his
answer. On the clay fixed, a deputation, con-
sisting, not of 50, but of 500 Livetymen, waited
on his Lordship to know his pleasure ;. when his
Lordship refused, as at the present period, to
obey the requisition. In consequence of thil re-
fusal, the Livery waited patiently until the fol-
lowing Michaelmas Day—the day on which the
election of the succeeding Lard Mayor was to
take place—when they unanimously and clamor.
ously declared that no election should, take place,
unless the purpose of the requisition which they
had presented was first accomplished. This led
to, great delay and confusion, but the, Livery
finally triumphed. The' Lord Mayor came tor-
ward and assured them, that it they permitted
the election to take place, their other views should
be attended to. The election did accordingly
proceed, and immediately afterwards the grievance
complained of was 'considered, and resolutions
declaratory of the opinion of the Livery were
passed. A s'tnilar scene, it is confidently said.
will be exhibited on the approaching Michaelmas
Day.

ARUNDEL. SEPT. 7.—ln cobsequence of the
death of our brie respected Aiemher (Sir ARTHUR
l'iGooTT), Lord Busy, eldest son of the E 41.1 of
Albemarle, is arrived here to canvass the borough.
Whether there will be an oppo%iton to him on
the patronage under which he presents hintst
must he determined by the activity or supineness
of what is called the Bloc, or independent pally,
Sept. -11.—Mr. Blake, of Leotiroster, is arriv-
ed to oppose Lord Bury. The piste is all in a
bustle.

'Wednesday night an experiment WAS tried on
board the flog-ship of Sir Jont4 GORR, at C: at-
ham, of several newly. invented loncerns, to !),:
used on hoard ships at sea. The Board of Ad-
miralty, Sir WM. CONGUEVE, and several other
distinguished persons, were present.

TO THE PUBLIC.

".%
%FR. TAYLOR, the PROPRIETOR of Tim SUN
NEW!.PAPER, heir); desirous of lessening the Labour an d
Solicitude attending the Conduct of a Daily Print, is willing to
part with a portion of it to any Gentlemen of literary Talents
and Resources, whose Poiitical Principles correspond with
those on which the Paper has always been conducted, and
who would be inclined to co-operate in the Management of
it. He would rather at once dispose of the whole Concern,
if he did not venture to conceive that the steadiness of
his Political Character has excited the confidence of his
Renders, and that his lung experience may reasonably be sup-
posed to attach some credit to his competency in the conduct
of a Public Jouraial. He conceives also, that in these awful
and threatening times every Public Man should remain at
his post, in order to contribute, to the utmost of his power,
towards the Defence of the Constitution in Church and State.
?*.rveral Individuals have offered to purchase the Paper; but
as it was founded under the immediate sanction of the late
Mr. PITT. the Proprietor deems it his duty to consider it as a
Political Legacy left by that Illustrious Statesman to his
Country, to support and perpetuate those Principles which
are most conducive to the security of the State and the happi-
ness of the People. Hence the Admirers of that enlightened
Minister and true Patriot may think that a Paper instituted
Isy him, and fur such important objects, should be offered to
some }mirth.: spirited Body, actuated by higher considerations
than mere regard to pecuniary advantages, and animated by
zeel for the general welfare; or to others whose interests are
essentially united with the interests of the Country. To
such Persons the Proprietor would most willingly dispose of
the entire Concern ; and, however anxious he may be for re-
pose, after many years of toil and solicitude, he would readily
art as their Agent as long as his superintendence might
be deemed requisite. It cannot be necessary to dwell
on the high reputation which Tug See: has long pos-
sessed, in consequence of the undeviating consistency
of its Thilitical Character, and the uniform propriety of
its Gerierel cenduct. To support a Government acting on
the system of Mr. PITT is the main principle by which the
Paper has been directed, and only by a firm adherence to
that system Coa it maintain its Character. It is obvious,
however, that a steady, attachment to a System which in-
volves the safety of the Constitution, by no means implies
a servile conOuieence in the Measures of any Administration.
But while THE SUN perseveres in the same direct course,
it may reasonably expect the support of the present Go-
vernment on occoont of its Political Principles, and the
reverence due to the memory of its Illustrious Founder, since
an indifference to the fate of such a Paper, on the part of a
Per: ADMINISTRATION, would be a solecism, as well at a
reproach,. which it is not likely to incur_ With not less con-
fidence may the Paper rely on the Protection of the Ottanonox
Coetecn, as it has so strenuously supported our Ecclesia-
stic d Establishment as to be supposed to be peculiarly pa-
tronized by Toe Cora6Y; among whom it certainly can boast
of maey valuable Correspondents. Indeed, as ono Cf.ERGY
enlist be well qualified, by abilities and knowledge, to instruct
the Community at litres., and, as in these times, they should
consider that :hey have duties as Citizens as well as Pastors,
they ;night very properly possess themselves of a Paper which
would not only enable them to spread right principles in gene-
ra', imt also to check those licentious and impious doctrine.
whieO daringly inculcated with malignant assiduity, and
are manifestly intended to destroy the Religion and the Go-
vereieent of the Country. Ti e•Proprieter may confidently
exptet the Support of the Pint Crotes throughout the
Pri;',ol ?expire, considering to whom THE SUN owes its
origin, and from whom they derive their appellation. AN-
NUAL CfrILEURATIONS of a Meru-Deo are of little use, and
will fall into laugivir awl decay, unless effective Meal), are
taken to diffuse arid support the Principles upon which those
du:ociations are professedly esteolished. THE Sus may also
expect the Support of the REGULAR Sol:At:irons throughout
the Kingdom, as that. Paper, and that alone, has zealously en-
deavoured to oiaintam the holoor M. the Legal Profession, by
exempting it from all irregular Practitioners and discreditable
Intruders. Finally, THE SUN may look to the Peoree AT
LAnGE fur Patronage and Encouragereent ors account of the
steadiness of its Principles, its Public Spirit, and its resolute
Endeavours, on all occasions, to promote the Honour and In-
terest of the Country. Such, then, is the Opportunity which
the Proprietor now offers to his Countrymen; and as
if presents A TiAT ro Ponrec V,true, and to GENUINE PA

TRICTI sm, he should insult the National Character if
be vvi.,re not to suppose that among the admirers of Mr.
QI rr, and Filielids of THE CONSITUTION, many wise, in-

. .
dependent, disinterested, magnanimous BalToNs will be
found ready, at this awful crisis, to unite in purchasing
and upholding * Paper which so obviously possesses pc-

caliar and prominent Claims to National Protection.—Non•

FOR TUE SUN.

7'o 311? S. JOHY BULL.

DEAR MRS. BULL---Fur, whether with or with-
out the pun, you are the dearest of all dear crea-
tures, I shall now whisper a word in your ear—
.not that l fear your good man overhearing our
ttte-a-tote, but because I know you are fond of
any thing like a secret.
Do you know, my dear Madam, that the whole
welfare of Society, the stability of the Consti-
tution, all our enjoyments in this world, awl all
our hopes of the next, depend upon you, Mrs.
BULL, and those lovely Daughters who imitate
and rival your graces ?
I know that you are aware of your individual
influence. Your own knowledge of it is evinced
by the use you make of its power. But perhaps
you are not aware that your artless and honest
coquetry before marriage, and your endeavours
after it to apply to your own use a certain inex-
pressible part of JOHNNY'S costume, including all
the gradations of Love and Power, are the abso-
lute and'eflicient causes that enable and inspire
your helpmate to maintain truth, justice, and se-
curity at home, and to contend against their op-

posites abroad.
To illustrate this, I would bid you look

France, Germany, and Holland, before and dur-
ing the Revolution. I cannot deny, because I
well knew it to be true, that in those Countries
many instances of connubial honour, and domes-
tic happiness were to be found ; but if eve regard
that state of society in general, these instances

were but exceptions.
To illustrate it still further, as I know you like
to chat about persons as well as things, I shall
relate to you a conversation which I [tad, during
the short Peace of Amiens, with a French Lady,
an illtnio6a, the widow of a General Officer, and
he grand-daughter of a much admired Historian.
Conversing on the probability of a speedy rup-
ture between the two Countries, this fair Dame
boasted, in the pride of her heart, that the Con-
quest of England would be much facilitated
through certain events which had taken place
during that short period. Having mixed H) the
literary, the philosophical, and the political cir-
cles of Paris, she seemed fond of retailing their
sentiments ; and when I hinted that the Conquest,
of Britain might turn out a tougher job than
either she or the First Consul supposed it to be,
she bade me, with a triumphant air, look at Hol-
land and Germany.
" Why have we," said she, " over-run these
countries, not forgetting Italy, so easily, but
through their want of union, ►heir deficiency of
patriotism ? The selfish principles, or rather the
want of principle, in these people, produced their
ruin. There, no man who was married, believed
hie children, or rather his wife's children, to be
Ilia own. The children were also aware of this,
and naturally w.thlield the proper respect and love

fron► their reputed parents. Even the ties of fa•
mily affection were broken amongst brothers and
sisters, who bad well-founded doubts of the double
closeness of relationship that ought to exist when
a mother has been but once married. Then what
were the consequences ?—Want of union, and a
cold selfishness—more destructive to the German
People than all the defeats of their armies, or
their political disunio►► as separate States. But
in England," continued the fair Dame, " this did
not exist. Our Philosophers know it well, and
took advantage of the first interval of peace to
avail themselves of measures which should infal-
libly produce a change. They knew that an Eng-
lishman not only loved but honoured his parents

more than himself ; that he considered his bro

:hers and sisters as a species of valuable property;
hat he loved and trusted his wife; and that lie
boated on his children, because they were his own!

is was the charm that made his fire-side dearer to

hint than the mines of Mexico or Peru.; *This
was the charm which, whilst it concentrated his

ove to the circle of his fire-side, bad yet the
endency to expand that love to his friends and

relatives, to his peri9h, to his county, to his

Country, and even to all mankind. Whilst this

churns existed, our Philoslphers knew that though
we might invade, might over-run, might destroy

England, yet that still we never should be able
to conquer it. To destroy this charm was then
our object ; we have already done much towards
it, and shall finally succeed, provided the peace

oats a few years longer."
To positions like these I could give no denial,

ough I expressed great unwillingness to believe
e prophetic part, and considerable curiosity to

know the means by which the French Philoso-
phers were to conquer England during a pro-
found Peace !—Nor did the Lady hesitate to

disclose them, worthy as they were of the

worst disciple of MACH lAV EL, or of the first
tempter himself. She unblushingly assured me,
that the plan was to poison British patriotism at the

We received yesterday and this morning the
Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday last:'
The KING on Wednesday held a Council of Mi.
nisteri, which sat for three hours.

The Journal des Debats of Thursday announces,
with three notes of admiration, that the Count
DECAZES (lined on Tuesday with the Marquess de
FONTANES, and follows it up with a long strain
of interrogatories, and some speculation founded
upon a supposition that the Minister of the In-
terior is making overtures to the Ultras, for which,
however, the only ground appears to be the fact
of the dinner.

The marriage of the Archduchess CAROLINE,
of AUSTRIA -with the heir presumptive to the
Throne of Saxony, was to be celebrated by pro-
curation on Saturday last, at Sclicenbrimn. The
Archduke CHARLES was to be the proxy for the
Saxon Prince.

The disturbances at Haniburgh, directed against

the Jews, still continued. An extraordinary
meeting of the Senate was in consequence held
on the 28th ult, when a rigorous "Proclamation
was issued, with the view of restoring tranquil-
lity.

A camp of exercise is, according to a Vienna
article, to be formed this month at Pest in Hun-
gary. Another account from Vienna states, that
the conferences at Carlsbad were to be continued
longer than was at first supposed, and that the
Prince Da ATErrearricu was not expected at the
Austrian capital till the 10th instant.
Tie following are extracts from the Journals
of Friday :

" PARIS, SEPT. iO.--Yesterday the King gave
a private audience to the Baron d'Uchtritz, the
Saxon Minister Plenipotentiary, who, on the

part of tiffs Sovereign, notified the marriage of the
Princess Josephine of Saxony with the King f

Spain.

" The King did not go out yesterday, but trans'
acted business with several of his Mi►►isters.

" The review of the National Guards by the
king, Which was to have taken place this day, i 9
again postponed.

" The English Ambassador yesterday visted th•
exhibition of the products of French industry.

" Several Journals have announced that the
Count Decazes had dined with the Marquess do
Fontanes at Courbevoye, and they deduce from
it various political results ; the fact is, that the
Count Decazes and the Marquess de Fontanel
merely met at the house of a common friend.'

" His Majesty has expel fenced a slight attack
of gout in the knee.

" Some of the letters from Cadiz, says the
Memorial Bordelais, of the sth inst., appear to
confirm the statement of the existence of thc
yellow fever at the Isle de Leon, two league'
from Cadiz. It is certain that at the de'
parture of these letters a cordon was formed
round the Isle ; but notwithstanding these
measures of precaution, there was some dis•
quietude at Cadiz. This disorder has, it is sails
manifested itself with alarming symptoms at OP

said, the surveillance of all the other Authorities•

that several persons who have been arrested have

Several of the ..Morning Papers contain the
Programme of the infamous ceremony which is
to diigrace the Country this day, in the procession
attending the return of its great Disturber to the
Metropolis, a procession, that would not be suf..
.
feted *to take place in any other Country in the
world.—We shall not imitate the Morning Pa'
pers by anticipating any thing in the shall*
of respect to the arch7agitator and deluder of the
lower, or rather the lowest, order of the People.
We have therefore inserted a Programme more
suitable to the disgraceful transaction, though We
conceive that a much more solemn and awful
ceremony should attend those who seem to have
no other view than to effect the total demolition
of our present form of Government, under the
pretence of attempting to effect an improvement
in Parliamentary Representation. As none hilt
the most desperate wretches can be supposed to
accompany this infamous Procession, and as they
are to celebrate the event by feasting and revelling.
the most riotous and alarming consequences might
be expected to ensue, if due provision were not mad'
by our vigilant Government, and our excellent
LORD MAYOR. We cannot conclude without fat
apprizing the Public in general, of the daring
designs of the miscreants in question, by the in'
sertion of the following ra7ard, which has been
