Yesterday it considerable number -of people,
dressed: but for the occasion, • and seated in
hkles to which few of them would On any`other
occealon• think of aspirim.T, -went aS'll3ilAi tn p e •
senteAddresses. • Among these• valuable nocu-
meets: was one called the' Metropolitan Address,
sigrtei by about as many persons as petitioned for
the';life of poor Doctor' Dodds who wash-angeti
after all ! Not that we• finean-to intimate that
thene was any- Dther ,sirnilirity in the• two rases,
than., that of the mOre. number of signatures ;
but this is quite salcient to show that no cer-,
fain. indication of success to- any cause can he
-drawn; from the numbers Of, the populace; who
ve;:it.the sanction of itheir .rnatks,. or s.gnatures.
10ne3_fact, iwe are extreniely'sorry to learn; re-
apecting. the Processions to ,present Addresses.
Thef -atelnide a pretext for picking' the pockets
of the labouring- classes, and that to'such' arverc-
tenti,..that several of the#SaVing Banks, in the Me'-
troptylis.hava'alreadyexperietnce.d a sensible dinii-
nuti9etof 'their funds; We-earnestly recommhnd
it to-the-benevexlent pe-sons who have undertak-en
the Iliveatiati of- those‘• valuable !institOtioni, to

woman, a cookmaid, or a nightman's wife, drect
out, in feathers to visit her Majesty, Nre ►nit be
aware that their own hard-earned gains. must be
very idly squandered in paying for the hire of the
borrowed finery.

[Morning•Po#.]
The revolutionists who had the, good fortime
to be absent from Cato-street, witen'the -late Mr.
Thistlewood and some of the braver members-of
tie association were surprised, had hadyesterday a
dinner at the-Crown- and Anchor, to cominemo-
'rite the late revolutions. To excite the military
to insubordination, and :thus to produce a revo-
lution in thiS country, was dear.-l:)' the Object of
the party, and they accordinglj were loud in
praise of constitutions formed at khe point Of the
baybfiet—Of patriots in battle -at ray,-,--Land they
especially paid their court to " our brave bro-
thers in arms.", Major`Cartwrigh t had the in-
trepidity 'to lament that the soldiers in,,England,
who were formerly foremost. on sv•zh occasion--s,
were not so in the present instt nee; but he
hoped the day, was not distant whet. they would
imitate the heroes of the Contineu t. This old
Gentlenian is so well 'known to be ha his dotage,
that what' he says must ;prove asbar.plessas the
le* silly sentences that are extorte t. from the
miserable inanity of Sir Gerard Noel ; and far the
rest of the assembly, their speeches w. ..re exactly'
what might have been expected, itete they
,thought they could do mischikf,' and. 1 v' ,ped their
infaMous sentiments' might have tire" j Ifect of se-
',clueing the soldiers from their duty. We shall
not particularise' the Various utiprint ipled and
Mischievous wretches included in f.!te motley'
grouped but this We believe we: may say With
safety, that itcno other part of ttie world would an.
assembly so large, and so openly hostile to the.
King' and, Constitution Or their Couiary, have
been suffered to offend 'common decea try foe -a
single hour. One of the principal actors in this
scene was a Catholic Priest: A Catholfr. we are
told every day (in raerence to the ItOitin wit-
nesseS), is- not to be, believed on his owl, when
he comes forward against it party accused ; but
the moment he appearS on the side of a rebel-
lious faction, every fable in which he toay'choose
to indulge is hailed with rapture as that , which
may be relied upon with implicit confidence,
and his veracity cannot be called in question for
a,mement. It appeared to be the unanimous
opinion of all Present, that nothing On earth was
so desirable 'As a military revolution. The sol-
diers attempted' to 'be coaxed into taking upon
themselves to pllty the part of Rciforthers.
.44. Our brave brothers In arms" know how to
esteem the; civil things uttered by those who
are all on a sudden " so sweet upon them."
They will recollect that it is the same gentry who
formerly called.them " the Piccadilly Butchers,"
who instigated ,their friends and fellow.tountiy-
.men .to .pelt and murder them On various; occa-
sions, and who attempted to hang some of them
for presu!=zing to defend their Liles against the
assa:iiits'ork fel•ocious mob. Thesie things are
not to be forgotten by the British soldiers, and
they know too well the fickk• and perfidious dia.;
ratter of thbse who -svould, now seduce them, to
doubt that they would be the first to betray to
punishment and death if the.), had the opportu-
nity.—The object of the meeting of yesterday,
we repeat, was eildently nothing itort of revolu-
tion ; and to counteract the infernal designs of
• its promoters, rio time should be lost by the loyal
and swell ditq)osed in arming- for the common de-
fente, and in support of every thing -that is dear
to civilized man.
