COURT OF COMMON GOLI-tt..IL.

AI:DRESS TO THE RFOENT.
Mr. Reynosa?, yesterday, on the reading of the
Requisition being called for, said, a grosser attack
had rever been made on the proceedings, and on
the ptivileges of any body of men. than that which
the Cammon Council had • sustained from the un-
called for opiniona.delivered by their Law Officers on
tl.e preceding d iy:
The Lotto Mexoreohserved, if this 'subject were
now to be entered into,. it would be impossible 'to
•-
take up the Address that day.' He tholigot this mat-
ter might as well be suffered to rest for the present,
as it-could be debated so much bettet,iottionre future
•..,•.. •
occasion. •
Mr. WAIVISIAN then ght it right to proceed.
The Load MAY-it had no objection to enter upon'
the dehate Dow, if tuch was the pleasuie of the
Coon, but in that case they most give up all idea of
carrying op the Address ',at day.
M • Weetustets eirtiodered it most important to
the pr.v.tees ofrthat Coon, that he should now say
what he- had intended to say. He wished to know
by whom the Law Officers had been called upon to
give their opiiiione on the -Requisition of the prece-
ding day ? He desired to be informed if they Mad,
been reqoirel to iii.!tre them by any Member of that
Court, or by any individual or body of men out of
doors
The Lotto Mayon again recommended that the
Requisition should be read.
Mr. 01.1MIAM, in rising to move an Address to the
Prince Regent, declined saying any thing at present
on the conduct et tie Law•Otficers «I the Court, but
of this he was tt rtain, that whatever ittfcrmality had
been fallen into by his Worthy Friend who had framed
the first Requisition, he we; quite certain
Mr. WAITSISIAN said there had been no iufOrtlia•
lit y. He denied it in tote.
Mr. OLDHAM
_was sure, whether the Requisition
was or was not informal, that no language could be
used that would more strongly mark the horror of
Neat Court of the late atrocious outrage, than his
Worthy Friend would not have been glad to use.—
( Hear, hear)) He rejoiced in the opportunity now
afforded to those who, like him, were friendly to mo-
derate and constitutional Reform, to declare their
sentiments, for he, though herwished as much as any
man for retrenchments in the public establishments
of the country, and for the most rigid economy in
every departMent of the State, yet he could declare,
that no man could feel more loyalty, mote-attach-
ment to the Sovereign, and to the Prince Regent, as
the repretentative of the Sovereign, or lie more die.
posed to make every sacrifice to support that 'part of
the British Coastitutitm entire, of
,which the Sove-
reign formed so prominent a part. He knew it had
been common to confound the friends to Reform with
the disloyal, but this he contended was unjust, and he
would ask What became ut those great names, Locke,
Blackstone, and others, Which adorned our history,
it this were once admitted to have bean proved
That there were in the country a few demagogues,'

knee, he was ready to acknowledge, and to declare
that they ought to be•arrested in their career; buthe
was satisfied that if Ministers did nothing to bring
these parsons again forward, they must soma sink into
that oblivion from which they had so recently
emerged. It was not necessary for him to urge one
triton-rent in favour of the Address which he was
about to stove, as on this occasion he wax confident
all parties would -unite to baniali political feeling; and
to consider this question as an isolated point, which
would afferd them an opportunity of tallying to the
Throne the assurance of their determination to sup-
postabeir Sovereign, al e Constitution, and Laws of
the Country. He moved, 44 That a dutiful Address
from the Court be presented to his Royal Highness
the Prince Regent, expressive of its detestation of the
late daring and flagitious outrage offered to his Royal
Highness the Prince Regent, ochis return from Par-
liament."
Ms. DAVIS never, at any period et his life, bad un-
dertaken a task more grateful to his feeling', • than
that which he now took upon 'himself. iesing or
second the Address of his worthy Friend. He agreed
with the mover, that this was not a party question,
and he considered no language too strong to express
that abhorrence which they ought to teel, and which
he was sure they all did feel, on an occasion like the
present. Whatever differences of opinion .might exist
on Minor points, he Wes sure that on the question,
note before the Court there could be none. He vin-
dicated the conduct of those who assembled, as that
Court did, for the purtiese. of adiocating the cause
of Reform, from the charges urged against them.—
It was now for the friends of Reform to come for.
weird to prove Omit loyalty and attachment to the
Constitution as, by law established, consisting of
KiAg,Pirds, and Cornering, in which each. branch-
of the Government laboured to promote the good of
the whole. Adverting to the late meetings, though he
did not approve of them in some respects, hilithuught
it was unjust that any imputations ought to be thrown
out against them, for assembling openly, by those
who met in secret, and sent forth Resolutions /agreed
to in private; at a Tavern, in opposition to those
adopted at Mutiugs: of •a differeist .deseriptien.—

Lai eaabliabasepse. He reiriced in the unanimity

which was likely to retell on the present oceasion.l
He believed our present distress to arise in a great
measure from the establishments at present kept up.
These, he doubted not. would be speedily diminished;
and with the Mile of the general depression, he ho.
ped the effect would cease. He condemned the late
attempts ,to mislead the people; less satisfied the.
loyalty of the great body of them was still unshaken,
and hoped Ministeis would meet the wishes of the
c.mntry by making. at reductions in the course of
the present Session M Parliament.
Mr. Warman): commented on the Requisitions
in pursuance of which the Court had been convened
on two successive days. On the first day, they had
been called upon to vote a congratulatory Address on
the providential escape of his Royal Highness from
the daring attempt is of certain rash and intemperate
individuals ;" they were now assembled to take into
consideration a proposition .for addressing his Royal
I Highness on his providential escape from 44 the trai

liament.. The objections weed against the' former
Recitii.izion by the Law Officers of the Court, he
cow:ewes% were perfectly ridiculous. He held intis
hand the Address presented by the House of Lot&
which described the attack on his Royal:Highness
the Prince Regent to he an ,r outrage."—They
did not even call it a c, daring outrage," as it
bad been called in the Requisition which the Law
Officers of that Court had felt themselves called .up.m
so pointedly to condemn. He was astonished at the
view they bad Wren of it. How such ideas, a> they
had expressed, could enter into the heads of great
men covered with large wigs, he was at a loss Vireo's.
ceise.—(Laughter).—Those who were really friendly
to-Reform were most opposed to acts of violence.
In the Address he had brought forwitrd in December
List, Le had described acts of intemperance to he
mast hostile to the cause ; and be had constantly
observed, not merely dating the last. few,months, but
through the whole twenty.fise )ears that he had-been
before the town, that such proceedings served only
to pave the way for some new invasion.of. the people's
rights. He strongly insisted on the necessity, f a
Reform, which, he contended, would repress all dis-
turbances more effectually than any. other .measortne
The worthy Gentleman who had secnualed. the Ad-
dress, bad not condemned the meetingat of, those
opposed to the Reformers, but he had said.' while
they met in secret to pass Resolutiope,whieh were,
afterwards sent forth to the Public... they had no
right to complain of those .erho. met -openly to de-
clare their sentiments on theriate of etc country.—
He would go further than the worthy Gestleman.in
reprehending these, and say.. when he saw 'Resolu-
tions so artfully drawn up, that he thought he should
not be wanting in charity if he said they must have
been prepared with some mischievous intention. What
would have beeti said if certain other persons had
met in private. and then sent forth their resolutions
to the public ? What would not have been said of
the secret machinations and dangerous designs of
those who acted such a part ? He thought meetings
like these which had recently occurred, and which
had been so much censured, did harm to the cause
which those who attended them affected to support ;
but he had no fears -ot their overtnrniog the Consti-
tution. He then animadverted on the opinions en-
tertained by the worthy Alderman (Mr. Heygate),
on the subject of Parliamentary Reform. If it was
wished to put down these demagogues of whom so
much had been said, it was only necessary for men
of property, who had the greatest stake in the
country, to come forward and demand their rights,•
and they would take the stage from under those
persons whose object it was to mislead the multitude.
He approved of the Address which had been moved,
but he thought ,it would be proper that it should be
accompanied by something more than had yet been
proposed,-to remind the Sovereign of the grievances
of which they had to complain. lie would suggest
an addi s.rn, to which he should think no objection
could be made. He concluded by reading what he
wished to be embodied in the Address, which was as
follows That while we derive consolation from
the patient, loyal, and temperate conduct of the greet
body of the. people, we the more deplore the late vice.
lent proceedings, because they tend to obstruct that
which it is the wish of the country constitutionally to
obtain—redress of their grievances."
. This addition was not moved as an amendment,:
and the question being put, the Address was unmet-,
mously carried. and the Committee retired to' prepare,
an Address to the Prince Regent, which was agreed
to, and ordered to be presented in the usual way.

They went towards the place, and saw L' cock: the
