was intended ooly to ezh*sst the time of the Court;
and to delay them front coining-to a iiote, which the
worthy Member did wale. The worthy Member
talked about his loyalty ; But-would 99 men out of 100
believe a word of it ?
Addresses of May 14th, 1770, and March .14th,
1776, were then read.
Mr. CROOK and Mr. GRIFFITHS supported the mo-
tion by a few words.
Mr. Alderman Woon was not aware what was to
be done. The Motion went to no specific object ; and
upon that principle he should have supported the
amendment had it been persisted in. [Mr. WAITHMAN
interposed that lie only suggested it, he did not pro-
pose it.) When the Court went up with a cringing
address, they were well enough received ; but when
they carried stall a one as they did upon a late occa-
sion, the manner in which the Corporation was treat-
ed was most contemptuous. The worthy Alderman
tad
the Non heard, and he just now whispered it in the ear of
. Baronet (SirW.Curth),' that Mr. Perceval's
resignation was tendered on Sunday last ; the Hon.
Baronet declared he did not know it ; and therefore
the worthy gave him .credit for his present
indifference about party ; it might. lead him agreea-
bly to chime in with whomsoever should be Minister.
The worthy Alderman was -sorry.at-present that the
Aldermen should form the aristceratical body. of the
Corporation ; he thought for that -cr.ason they ought
riot to interfere in requisitions ; and ite, for his part,
should go up with no address in which the people had
not an interest •
Mr. Alderman GoociatisznE expressed his surprise
to hear this called no'political question. In his °pis
nion it was most deeply so. However desirous they
were to honour the King as a Man, they ought to take
care not to lose all respect for the privileges of the
people. lie would put it seriously to any man, whe-
Z)er he could sit down contented with believing that
the succeeding reign would be, made up of the
gloomy list of taxes, defeats, and loans of which this
had been composed. It was a bad symptom to see
mankind so blind to their situation as they now
seemed.
Mr. Deputy KEsinte thought, that when the pro.
posed celebration had been commenced by the mer.
chants and bankers of the city, it did not become the
Corporation to be backward in loyalty; but it could
add nothing to the comfort of his Majesty, that this
should be done in any expensive way. If it could, let
the Corporation spend all it had : the worthy Deputy
would sacrifice all he had to the comfort of the King.
• The question was then loudly callidfor and the mo-
tions (for which see the first-page of our paper) were
put and carried unanimously.

English fleet has IA that coast without attempting
any thing.
The Emperor Nark:dein intends making a short
journey into that part of Hungary occupied by his
troops, in order to review the positions of the corps
stationed them Probably this journey has given rise
to the report, which however requires confirmation,
that his Majesty will have a conference with the Ein-
peror of Austria, in the vicinity of Raab. The French
Emperor, we are likewise assured, reviewed the po-
sitions of his army in Moravia and Styria.
The Emperor Francis has today purchased a va-

UPPER EAVARIIA AUGUST U.
The march which the Duke of Dantaic (Marihal"

vimbined army of French, Bavarians, and Sextets,
s e,:tremely difficult. With dauntless courage the
Ts advanced on the 6th and 7th of August, to

71rassable. But a narrow valley, the steep heights

Iptil!g in great want of provisions,- was obliged to
return to Inspruck, where it arrived on the 11th of

A 'o:ittle began, which lasted from six in the morning

:liture of the place, prevented the brave army of the
fluke of Dantzic from giving them a complete de-
feat. As the army marched back through the Lower
Inethal, they found the towns and villages empty,
the inhabitants having fled with their cattle to the
mountains • but how will it fare with them next.win--
