Mgr. • . . es ....
Address to. her Royal Haaltaegs/ bake .solid,;l
it was. received with acclamations, and agreesl cut
unanimously. •
Mr. Alderman Wont, then stepped forward, and'
observed, thet howeier unwilling he might feel to
.intrude upon the attention of his fellow-electors of
Westminster, yet he could not help giving his warm
concurrence to the free and honourable sentiments
avowed by that respectable Meeting. As his own
opinions had been so often declared, Jae was confident
rib person present would attribute his conduct there
to any improper motives—pi/pp/awe.) Full twelve
months ago, he felt perfectly satisfied of the inno-
cence of her Royal Highness, from a private perusal
of what had been emphatically termed " the BOOK."
&a tiz.fied with that conviction, he proposed to hold a
Common Hall in the City of. London, to vote an Ad-
dress to her Royal Highness, beseeching her to as-
sume that rank and dignity which it was intended
the ',101,:or hold in this country-7 (iipp/au:se.) He
had, however, to lament, that his friends then decli-
ned to act with him, and the matter dropped. Late-
ly, however, when the eontehts of the Book were
made public, he, without the least concert with his
friends, moved an Address to her Royal Highness in
the Common Hall, and that Address declaratory of
their conviction of her innocence, was agreed to by
at least 3000 Liverymen. That Address was pre-
sented to her Royal Highness on Monday last at
Kensington Palace, and as the procession passed
the long line of streets, every individual, male and
female, gave tokens of approbation, and cheered their
exertions to vindicate the innocence of an injured wo-
man—( Loud applauser.) He hoped every City and
Town in the Kingdom would follow the laudable
example set them by the Capital, and her Royal
Highness's triumph must be complete over all her
enemies, whether secret or avowed—(Continued ali-
plause.) some people might suppose be appeared
there according toinstructions from head-quarters; but
no ; he appeared there to speak only the genuine sen-
-1 timents of his own heart. He never saw the Princess
of Wales till he attended the other day on presenting
the Address, and bad no other intercourse with her ;
but be had good authority for saying that her Royal
daughter, the future hope of England, felt the war-
mest gratitude to the Country for the ardour with
'whiclethe People vindicated the honour of her Mo-
ther, and when she should become the Queen of these
realms, she may remember it with pleasure, and do
something in return to restore the liberties of the peo-
ple-- (Bursts of applause.)
• 4thly. Resolved, 'I hat the High Bailiff be requested, accom-
panied by, Sir Francis Purdett and Lord Cochrane, our two Re-
' presen.atives, to present the Address to her Royal Highness the
Princess of Wales. •
Major CARTWRIGHT then addressed the Electors,
and said, he should detain them but very shortly, as
1i ' be had never practised those graces of oratory so ne-
cessary to resort to to cover the defot mity of a bad
' cause, but wholly absurd when his object is as to con-
vey truth. He approved of every line in the Peti-
tion, and particularly of that part which noticed the
' injustice of the House of Commons, the grand root
of, all our evils.—(Applause.) The obaracter of
I the House of Commons was very properly interwo-
-1 ven with the Address, because it was only the other
1 day that the Princess of Wales had a specimen of it
herself. He alluded to the Motion of S'r Francis
Burdett, for an Address of condolence to her Royal
Highness, on the afflicting occasion of the death of
her Royal Mother. That unfeeling House, however,
evaded the Motion, under the pretext of there being
: no precedent for it; but he could tell them of a pre-
cedent, Ih the year 1751, when the House addressed
the then Princess of Wales on the melancholy death
of her husband—(Loud applause.) By similar ma-'
nceuvres did they get rid off Mr. Cochrane Johnstone's
Motion, and Mr. Whitbread's objects were disappoin.
ted, because, as it was pretended, the Commissioners
who conducted the inquiry not constituting a Court
of Record, witnesses who gave false testimony on oath
could not
-be legally prosecuted for perjury : but could
the House devise no remedy? Had they not the same
means of prosecuting Lady Douglas as they resorted
to in the case of Mr. John Reeves, who was, by order
i of the House, prosecuted for a libel reflecting on the
; character of Parliament? Had Lady Douglas and her
[ husband been prosecuted for a libel, they would have
bad a punishment much more adequate to their offence
than was nove-a-dlys inflicted for perjury (Laughter.)
The venerable Gentleman then adverted to the ques-
tion of Parliamentary Reform, and reminded the
Meeting, that their former Petitions to the House of
Commons in favour of that object had Dot yet been
presented; but he had to inform them, that during
the last winter he had, in the course of twenty-eight
days, visited thirty-three cities and towns in the )ting-
'dom, and in all he found the people determined to
present Petition upon Petition until their object should
be accomplished. No less than '200,000 signatures
had already been obtained to Petitions for Parliamen- 1
tary Reform, which would all be presented in due
time ; and the Citizens of London were preparing a
Petition to the same effect, and they would all be
presented together.—(4fifilause.)
The following Resolutions were then moved and
carried :
sal. That the 1 hanks of this Meeting be given to the Hon.
Cochrane Johnstone, as the fir-t advocate in the cause of the
Teincess of Wales, in the House of Commons.
6th. what the Thanks of this Meeting he given to S. Whit-
brtad, Esq. for his energetic, able, and atauly exertions, in the
tease of innocence and justice.
L 7th. That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to Sir Francis
Zurdett, Bart. one of our Representatives, for this Glut:l*proof
`,Ellis steadiness in the support of injured !nnoeence.
Orethe last Resolution being agreed to, Mr. Josts
BUL:DE ri addressed the Meeting --That Sir Francis
Burdett felt very much disappointed by his being li-
!teraily confined to his bed, from a severe fit of the
gout. He had furnished him with a letter to the Elec.
,rors, which, with their permission, he would read. as
kit contained the true sentiments of Sir Francis, on the
subject of their Meeting.. Mr. J. BURDETS then read
`the letter, of which the fbllowing is a correct copy :
... " Piccadilly, April 15.
" Gativteuri-1 ant Exceedingly mortified at my inability,
through illness, to attond the Meeting of the inhabitants of the
City and Liberties of Westminster, convened on this important
occasion, both because it is my duty, and because, that which

t
• tattling that great baud of Society', no dilfereuee oTopl,
idea can be entertained, and as little, I should thhilc, bf the vio-
lation of Ants fundamental principles and maxima in the• per-
son of her Royal Highne 13 the Princess of Wales—a Lady end-
tient in rat.k, eminent in virtue, but super-eminent in misfor-
tune ; and, I trust, our opinions will be as unanimous of the
propriety and importance of this Meeting, as our determination
will be to shew every mark of respect, and afford every sup-
port in one power to the meritorious, persecuted, and illus-
trious object of it. The long and cruel suffering she has under-
gone, the many estimable qualities she has displayed through-
out, and destitute and forlcrn condition in which, notwith-
standing her now universally acknowledged merits, she is left,
having lost her father not long since, and her mother still more
recently ;—the 4ing, to whom alone she looked for justice
iu this country, deprived of his mental faculties ;—and that the
cup of affliction might be full, the mind of his Royal Highness
the Prince, her husband, poisoned against her : and can it be
possible that there are men, and even good men, who think this
a cause unbecoming the people of England to espouse ? one in
which they ought not to and which they have no-
thing to do ? Is it not curious to observe, that these persons
whose sensibility was so alive to the misfortunes of the Queen of
France, who thought all England and all the world should draw
the sword to avenge her injuries, have no sensibility alive, no
commiseration awake, to the injuries of the innocent and calum-
niated Princess of Wales ? *What, in fact, has been proved with
respect to her Royal Highness ?—that her Royal Highness is full
of coadescension and kindness, and of a most benevolent mind
that her charity is not of the vulgar, casual, and eleemosynary
stamp,but a well regulated principle, uniform and active—that
her Royal Highness takes the trouble to think bow her charity

can be applied most beneficially for its object and for society—
nor could benevolence, united with wisdom, direct a course mere
admirably adapted to these enlarged views, than the • ne which
her Royal Highness is proved to have adopted.
" The well-considered objects of her Royal Highness's charity
are the children of poor but honest parents : these her Royal
Higkness not only maintains but educates—not only educates,
but places in useful and creditable railings; nor even then does
the superintending, ever-acting, and enlightened benevolence of
her Royal Highness cease; but the little influence her Royal
Highness possesses, is ever ready to exert itself for their fair ad-
vancement, according to their merits; and the nation has only to
regret, that this influence is not as extensive as the benevolence
which directs it. These, her Royal Highness's virtues, have not
been displayed by ostentatious hypocrisy, or the modern phari-
saical cant of those who ever stand praying in public places ; no,
nor by any friend or well•wisber to her Royal Highness, but by
her enemies—by those whO, like B: when sent by Balak to
curse, w.is compelled to bless, and was thus reproached : " 1.0, I
sent for thee to curse mine enemies, and behold thou halt blessed
tltent altogether." Thus have her Royal Highness's enemies disc
pelted the foul vapours engendered by their own malice, and
thrown a sunshine upon those virtues which would, but fur them,
have continued to flourish in the shade.

' And that should teach us,
There Is a Divinity that shapes our ends

Rough hew them how we w.ti !'
Their blind and indiscreet malice seem literally to have consi-
dered her vit ties as' sanctified and holy traitors to bet,' and pre-
posterously imagined-that Divine charity, which in others covers
a multitude of sins, could be by falsehood perverted into the
means of covering her Royal Highness's innocence, magnanimity,
and virtue, with the appearance and confusion of guilt.

" Gentlemen, the treatment her Royal Highness has received,
owit no doubt, to the ear of his Royal Highness the Prince her
husband baving.been abused, the severity of her Royal Highness's
lot—a woman, a Princess, and a stranger in a foreign land—is of
itself more than sufficient to enlist every generous feeling, every
Englishman's feeling, in anxiety for her Royal Highness's welfare,
and gives her Royal Highness a natural and irresistible claim to
the protection of every honcurable mind—Gentlemen, unable as
I am to have the honour of attending this Meeting, I think it due
to the respect I bear you, thus shortly to lay biforeyou my plain,
undisguised sentiments on this singular and important occasion.—
I have the honour to subscribe myself, your most devoted, very
humble servant, (Signed) "FRAN CIS BUILDILTT."
Mr. WIsIIART then moved—

Bth. Resolved, That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to
our fellow-elector, Alderman Wood, for his disinterested exer-
tions in the City of London, and his energetic support of the
Resolutions and Address this day.

Mr. WOOD briefly expressed his sense of the honoir
done him, and assured the Meeting, that his humble
talents would at all times be devoted to the service of
the people.—(4ylause.)

9th. Revolved, That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to
Arthur Morris, Esq. High Bailiff of Westminster, for h s readi-
ness in calling this Meetinr, and for his impartial, able, and judi-
cious conduct in the business of this day.

After Thanks being voted to the High Bailiff, the
Meeting dispersed.
Among the crowd were several distinguished cha.
racters, Earl SEFTON, &c. &c. 'l•he windows in
Palace-yard were filled with well-dressed Ladies, all
anxious to join in their approbation of the Princess's
conduct, and their detestation of the vile conspiracy
against her honour and life. Alderman WOOD was
received with great applause, and was repeatedly
cheered by the multitude. •

WORKS which compose the Prizes in Dr.
THORNTON'S Botanical Lottery, are very valuable
Paintings by the first Masters, and elegant Books en-
riched with many hundred unequalled Engravings.
These Works have had the unqualifif:d praise of the
most distinguished Characters for Learning and
Science. The Tickets, at £'2 ss. each, are one-third
below their intrinsic value, as the aggregate value of
the Prizes, stated in the Act of Parliament,.is £67,000.
FAITH IN DftcAms.—Many persons place great re-
liance in Dreams, especially since the baker at South-
ampton got £20,000 by dreaming of the Lucky
Number in the Lottery at that time ; it certainly was
a wonderful occurrence to dream of the Prize, as
there were so many Blank:, but in the present State
Lottery, which draws 6th of May, the difficulty would
be to dream of a Blank, as the Scheme contains more
Prize: than Blank:, and every Ticket drawn First Day
will be a Prize !

EXTRAORDINARY FALL OF Show.—ln Galloway,
so great was the quantity of snow which fed on Fri-
day se'nnight, that the roads were blocked up, and
the mail was obliged to be forwarded on horseback.
The same circumstance occurred on the road between
Dumfries and Edinburgh.. The .snow was in some
places from six to eight feet deep, and the roads
blocked up.

CHINO'S PATENT WORM I.OZENGIN.

WORMS ARE 'IT: MOST FREQUENT
SOURCES OF CHILDRENS' DISEASE, :

Their SYMPTOMS EVERY PARENT and GUARDIAN
of CHILDREN should be acquainted with. They occasion loss
of appetite, a paleness of the colm.r of the face, emaciation and
irregular state of the bowels, attended after with violent pains ;
they bring on convulsions; they alert the growth of the body,
and they prove fatal, by ending in a consumption. or decay. Beth
as a preventative and cure of these alarming :amplaints,the above
excellent Meditlne is universally allowed, on the testimony of the
highest characters in this country, both in rank and respectabi-
lity, to have no equal. Their riblic approbation, given to the
Proprietor, from a personal knowledge of its wonderful success
in their own families, stamps its merit beyond competition. and
gives a sanction to it, of which no other Medicine of the kind
can boast. Parents and others, who have the care of children,
should have this remedy as a family Medicine to resort to, when-
ever the stomach or bowels of Children are any way disordered,
which it will always be found to relieve.

SOCIAL. HAPPINESS.
11 MARRIAGE should be the foundation of Social
I.VI. Happiness, which is often disturbed through the parties
that form the union not taking those precautions which would se.
cure them the enjoyment of that great domestic bier:rig. People

the constitution has been tainted l.y disease, or debilitated by a

no disorders have contributed more essentially to destroy Hytues.
