ADDRESSES TO THE QUEEN.

It had been announced that her MAJESTY wotid
yesterday receive several of the Addresses which had
been voted to her from various places since the closing
if the case for the prosecution, and as it was antici-
pated that the Deputations would in some instances
lie more numerous, and afford a greater display
than usnal, the expectations of the people were
considerably excited.
The morning proved uncommonly fine, which
added much to the brilliance and festivity of the
scene; few, indeed, of the London folks could with-
stand the inducements to making a holiday. Every
street and every alley opening on the line of the dif-
ferent processions became gradually crowded with
anxious spectators. A countless multitude of vehicles
r4f every description, from the barouche to the taxed
cart, filled with company, and an endless throng of
:,ede,trians of all classes, including a greater propor-
a of well-.tressed people, females in particular,
is we remember to have observed on any former
occasion, were seen filing along the road-from Hyde
Park Corner to llrandenburgh House, which at length
presented to the view one continuous moving line of
tlseetators. The windows of every house were filled,
;lad moAly decorated with boughs of laurel ; and the
moldier of flags, chiefly white, displayed in different
7:::ces, !:otne bearing mottoes suitable to the occasion
as " Innocence Triumphant 1"--4, Protection for
(Jppreved !"—" 11EirEN- protect the Innocent P
.‘ ()Li deji•nd Me Qum x 1"), greatly enhanced the
-.iiety of the scene. The numbers who gained ad-
-I...:t:anze to the !awn and shrubbery were immense,
and ecgtducted themselves in a more orderly manner

• ') !zionc appointed to convey the Addresses
to Ilnindenburgh House, assembled in their respective
Committee-rooms, where they were attended by vast
cru. ~.s, ttho purposed to accompany them to the feet
of !:or MAJESTY, with the loyal and dutiful expres-
si-its ol• their respect for her coutage, and their sym-
-1,:i:ly in her suffe.ings. The several Deputations
p.0..e...ded towards Brandenburgh House, from their
re.Thective Cammittee-rooms, taking various routes,
a;:d g.eeted thrzaighout their progress with the
nr,:t cheers, expressive of the deepest
syr.ti.x.hy and warmest approbation of congregated
thousands of the thinking and dell-informed of this
Ev.erous and earightened people.
About half-past twelve o'clock the hells of Ham-
mersmith Church, on the tower of which the white
ensign of Britain was flyinj, ringing ont a merry
peal, gave notice of the approach of the Wptitation
Eraser the Ward of Farringdon Without'. The pro-
c:.-,sr.n was headed by Alderman IWAIT/0111g, in his
pr ::•f carriage, preceded by four beadles on horse-
back, hearing gilt maces, and consisted of male inha-
hi:ants of the IVard, in 24 open landaus, drawn by
Icor horses each, and ten cart iages with pairs.
Ti' t following is her 3IAJESTY% Answer to their
Address :
" The Inhabitants of the Ward of Varringdon.Witheut have
lung ,hewn themselves the friends of liberty and the enemies of
tiea.r..sslon. It gives mar, therefore, great pleasure to receive
in.inisted, constitutional, and alnetionate Address from
('itiece.• el the Metropolis, whose principles are so congenial
with Irla ) own.
" Toe w. Weed the unexampled, sympathy which I have
experience': on the part of the British People, has not only alle-
viat.el otj s.afferings, but has added strength to that fortitude
which th. i .tzrnal sentiments of integrity would never suffer to
Languish in my heart. At the same time, if Ido not feel, per-
hap. 1 oeght :o feel, more gratitude than resentment towards
my e.tem.es, for the wrongs which they have endeavoured to
beq o.a nte, when 1 consider that those wrongs are likely,
a: ,cr the d.rt coon of a superintending ritOVIDINCE, to assist the
N., a te• every of its constitutional rights and liberties.
" .1. ....spit of Eng:avid are now strongly convinced, that
the faction is nut merely attempting to deprive me of my
le.reer or my HA- s, but is, through me, aiming a fatal blow at
tk every individual in then: realms. My destruction
wow:: pr pare the wry for the destruction .4 public liberty. My
cruse, has become every man's cause. It is, indeed,
the cause of all classes—of the high the low—of the Peer
and the peasant—.•f the rich and tee poor: for, to which of I
classes is a free Constitution not a bruefit? Or to whom
is it rot a blessing to be independent and free? But, if my rights
are once sacrificed ar .h.- shrine of tyranny, liberty will soon be- ;
come only a name. It wiil, at least fur a time, he buried in my
tomb. I; wail, inked, revive, Mr it is ao indestructible essence
and, while man exists upon the earth, it cannot be entirely de-
stroyetl. But it may suffer a temporary extinction of its spirit,
ter a i.aralris of its powers.
" Aearchy is the greatest of all evils ; but anarchy Is usually
the climax of bad government. Bad government sacrifices the
• interests cf the many to that of the few, till the very elements of
the social scheme, wanting the strong cement of the common
itred, are so shattered and disjointed, that they can harlilly be
fired together by any principle from within, or any power from
svi:hout. The vessel of State is then cast for a time, like a scat-
tered wreck, upon the waters of strife.
" If the People ask ow, •• Wha are we to do In the present
yetil of the Counitutioo?' I answer, my people, my friends,
iny children—be united, be temperate, be film. Let justice be
-iotir constant guide, your regulating principk. Suffer not your-
s:lves to be hurried into the approbation of any measures, bcur-
ever cious they may seem, '64 have not justice for their be-
ginnine, at:d the general weitrre for their end.
. . .

" Lioerty be the ob.i.et of yot:r in:feigned devotion, your
unbounded love; but on side of Liberty place Justice, and
ca miler Ilumar ity. Without these two fair associates, Li-
i4 apt to become a cl:fvastating t: :ripest, or a consuming fire."
At one o'clock ti:e Spitaifielas Deputation anived.
Their line was headed by fourteen Gentlemen of the
Committee on hoiseback, bearing -blue wands tipt
gold, after whom came a barouche drawn by
toir horses, bearing the grand flag of the silk-
we,:ve.rs, the field of crimson, with an oval shield of
v-e:ite, charged with an allegorical device, both sides
c:* the flag presenting the same design and colours—
it is accounted the most finished and elaborate pro-
c:,:ztioil et the loom. Then followed a line of twenty-
s:./: bat ouches drawn by four horses each, the postil-
11s being clo:hed in jackets of rich yellow satin.
iollowing was the Answer of her MAJESTY to
AJdre,-
