otepseaa'il,lhe acre: and seconder of the Res ,-
liiiinot.—(Lutgliter and epplause.)
The Resolutions were put and caltied.
Thanks having previously been voted to Mr.
Waithman,
Mr. WA IT ti MAN Said he had been unwilling to
interrupt the proceedings to return thanks for the
honour which lie had received, as he thought it
desirable that the business should first be brought
to a conclusion. He proceeded to descant on the
wrone., of which tire Lively hail to complain, arid
rent-irked, that at a tone when every little 80-7,..,gh
7,..,gh and Colporation in the kingdom had en-
joyed the piivilege of petitioning against certain
'faxes on coffee, and or her articles then about to
be imposed, ;he Lively of London had been de•
vied the exercise of that right. Was it to be en-
dured, that the great Bashaw of the City should
dots say to them, you shall not petition against
new hardens being thrown on you ? Were they to
be told that the Court of Continuo Council should
be allowed to petition, but the Livery should not ?
Ile proceeded to condemn the 41.10gal,ccof those
who bad assembled in a tavern—to du what
Why, to keep all the Livery peaceable. It had
been secs this day what a sample. of moderation
these friends to good order had proved themselves
able to supply. It these men were capable of
shame, th,y would now hide their diminished
bends, and look for caverns dark enough to hide
their tionortrous inconsistencies. 'sot only had
t bey the atohot ity of Mr. Dutioiog, of Mr. Molder--
but n, and othar eminent legal non, as well as the
NH of Rights, against them on the ptesent occa-
sion, but they had, btsides these, one authority
opposed ,o them, which would he considered (by
them) more impol tan: than all the rest put toge-
ther. Looking over the proceedings of the Li-
very in !mulct n times, he had found that a Report
had been received from a Committee, and certain
Resolutions taken into consideration on the day
of election, with the full appiohatiou of one (Ili-
tioguished iudividaal, before proceeding to the
regular business. 'lire great name to which he
allured fls giving its sanction to such a course,
was no other than that of Mr. Samuel Dixon.—
Be then commented on the manner in which the
Common Stojeaut had on this occasion deviated
from the practice of the members of the legal
profession, by volunteering an opinion without is
fee. He concluded by repeating that it was his
opinion that the Livery had this day taught their
fors a lessou which they would never forget, and
they had only to act as they did now, and as they
did when returning Alderman Conibe, to secure
their rights and liberties.
Mr. TtiosipsoN, in returning thanks, declared
it to have been his determination to remain there
until that time to-morrow. lie praised Mr.
tiheriff Parkins, and described Mr. Sheriff Both-
well, with all his plausibility, to he hostile to the
Principles just acted upon by the Livery. lie
hart heard that the Prince Regent had lately been
presented with a suriff-box, on which certain
passages from the Bible appeared, which hail
made him look very seticus. Wondering what
could produce this effect, he hail seat cited the
Old testament for the cause, and had discovered
that the Bible was a very seditious hook. It would
not surprise him, that if the Lord Mayor knew
of such book, it he were to apprehend some of
tho'c Gentlemen "rho were Members of the Bible
So: rises, for disseminating sedition like that
whi h he would now read —(He then read the
following passages from Isaiah):—

Ilow is the faithful city become an harlot ? It was full of
judirrnent, ri;;htcousness Judged in it; hut now murderers."
" The Lord will enter into judgment with the ancients of
his people, and the Princes thereof ; for ye have eaten up the
vinertrd ; the spoil of the poor is in your houses."
" What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind
the faces of the pour ? saith the Lord God of Hosts."

He conelinkd, exhorting the Livery to tile rather
than sacrifice an iota of their liberty. He moved
the thonks of the Livery to Mr. Si miff Parkins
fur the very honourable, dignified, and upright
manner in which he had conducted himself, toge-
ther with a declaration that they acknowledged
him their Upper Sheriff.
',l2::e Resolution :vas carried.

Mr. Sheriff PARKINS returned thanks, and said
he should leave it to the Livery to detcrmine whe-
ther lie was to be regarded as the Senior Sheriff
Cr nor.

Mr. STEVENS censured the recent conduct
of the Nlagisirates of the country, and dewrib-
ed the Lord Mayor to have imitated the 'Magis-
trates nt Ma:ld:ester. He 'vas told tliat be had
*worn io for that day an additional number of
constables.—(Cries of " Speak the truth."--" He
has not sworn in one.")—lf he had done so, they
could only be wanting for the Gentlemen on the
Hustings to his right hand.—He moved a vote of
thenks to Mr. Hunt,
The motion having been carried,

Mr. HUNT spoke as follows :—Vellotr-citizens,
Gentlemen—l shall detain you but a very short
tune. One of the Loyal Livery has jolt had the
alecency to ask me '' where my wife is ?" 1 shall
only answer that she is not where his is—kept at
the public expence. 1 don't know hint, 11e is
not svorth your not ice. Gentlemen, allow me---
and I crnaide in your indulgence-1 am in no
Inirry—l am not to be posited on, otT my guard.
If i had been liable to be so, 1 should not have
received your thanks this day. I shall wait very
patien•ly, and 1 am some you will indulge me, if 1
wait till those two or three hisses are at an end.
Yon know e great deal too much of me—(A
laugh, and cries of " Very true;')—to think that
I ant to be lint down by clamour, and as von have
given otter Gentlemen a fair 'hearing, 1 am sure
that I may rely on being honoured ,vith your
attenti.n in any torn. If any of the Gentlemen who
oppose me trill come here and address you, 1 hope
von will give rhem a patient hearing. Not w.ihstznd-
ing the loyal Resolutions come to at the London
Tavern Meeting, the extent tat the hats and hands
held up here to-day did not prove that there arc
111,ite than 12 who have the courage to short
themselves. ‘aodld have been improper and
indecorous in We to address you on the lie@olu-
