TMs tnoroing. at the early flour of nine o'clock,
she Quota, the Princess ELmtaern, and the Doke
of CLAstaisue, left the 9umta's boon, in one of her
Majesty's private carriages, and proceeded to the
Great Pomp Room. They were attended by the
Countesses of Itcuurren and MaLviLut, General Sir
H. CAMPBELL, Colonels TAYLOR and Dzsoonouun.
Her MAJESTY alighted at the Colonade, and walk-
ed through the Abbey Church Yard to the Room,
where she was received by Dra.Graaas, her Majesty's
resident Physician, Mr. TUDOR, Surgeon, and Cap-
tain Wyse and Captain MARSHALL, the Masters of
the Ceremonies. The latter Cantleman having been
recently elected M. C. of the Kingston Rooms, had
the honour of being introduced to her Moiesrv, by
his Royal Highness the Duke of Otantsce, where
he received her MAJESTY% congratulations upon that
account. Her Royal Highness the Princess ELIZA.
sorts also congratulated Mr. MARSHALL upon his
'access, io.tbe most affable manner. Captain Wilco
had ken introduced to her MAJtIfrY, by his Royal
Highness the Doke of CLARENCE, during the former
part of her visit.
Her Mann,' recommenced drinking the water,
sod the Duke of CLARENCE also took a glass ; but the
Princess Euviairrat declined taking any at present.
The Royal Party promenaded the Room some time,
and her MAJESTY was pleased to order a donation of
ten pounds to the music of the Pump Room, in ad-
dition to fifty pounds, presented to the renter of it. on
her former visit; and her MAJESTY and the Princess
&mantra sent, besides, to the Kingston Rooms, sub-
scriptions of fifty pounds and ten pounds.
At one o'clock her MAJILSTY, the Princess ELIZA-
BETH, and the Duke of CLARENCE, accompanied by
the Countess of hcaterria. took an airing in a ba-
roughe and four. along the Bristol road.

It will be seen by the Advertisement, that the
Common Council of London, however deeply sym-
pathizing in the recent affliction, have, with great
propriety, determined to abstain from presenting an
Address to the Pulses Rnoser on the death of his
daughter. As such an Andress must, ennititation.
ally, have been received on the Throne. and'been re-
plied to from thence, the emotions which
.it would
haws excited would have been too painful.. other
Addresses, with the exception of those fromtlie
Uni-
versities, as they produce no personal interview, stand
on different grounds : they will nut be more affecting
to the Royal feelings than this very Advertisement
of the Common Council, in which the exercise of the
privilege of addressing is delicately declined. The
Universities, we have no doubt, will pursue the course
adapted by the Common Council.

in that situation. l'he Resolution which had
proposed in the shape of an amendment was
more than a lengthy Address, and the cif.-
which would attend it, viz. its being
and transmitted to the Royal Family, would
its consequences compromise the havaluablu
ptivi-
the Court possessed of approaching the foot of

,of our venerable toustituti6b, whiffle

which rendered her a pattern of private as well
lic virtues, without feeling it difficult to do
to their feelings. It was a subject by which

were some painful circumstances which anew

'ded chic event. on Which it was impossible not to re,
fleet. This amiable Princess in her last moments
was deprived of that consolation which we all anti-
cipated in our last moments, as wine mitigation of
the bitterness of that time. These were none of
them who did not hope to have their ,-yes closed in
death by those who were dearest to thrrn. Yet, by
some unhappy combination of circumstances, the
Princess was deprived of this comfort. He believed
the truth was, that no one of her relatives, as per-
haps no one else in the nation, had presented to their
imagination the sad event. From whatever cause it
happened it could nut but affect their minds :
" For who to dumb forgetlulness'a prey

He did not think that on an event on which they
were all ready to express their feelings, they bad any
need to wait the result of the appointment of a Com-
mittee f still less, for the reasons he had stnted.euold
he agree to the long Resolution which had been pro-
posed as an Amendment. He had prepared a short
Resolution -when the other motions were disposed of,
to this efect—.. That while they appreciate the mo-
tives which have induced this Court to refrain from
presenting Addresses of Condolence, they cannot
help expressing their sense of the loss the nation has
'sustained, by the death of the Princess Charlotte
\ Augusta ; being thus deprived of a striking example
of filial and conjugal affection, and of attachment
to those constitutional principles which it is equally
the interest of both the Sovereign and the subject to
maintain."
Mr. DAVIS, in a few words, supported the Address.
Mr. Jam said, a Committee, if appointed, might
refer to precedents, to know how the Court had acted
on similar occasions. The death of the Duke of
Gloucester, son of Queen Anne, for instance.
Mr. FAVSLL said, be should have agreed with the
Resolution proposed by Mr. Davis, except as to the
proposal to said copies of it to the high persons
alluded to. _ _ _

Mr. Dexott said, of the two Resolutions he should
prefer that of Mr. Waitbman, bat he still saw no
objection to a Committee.
After a short conversation between Mr. DAVIS,
Mr. WAITHMAN, Mr. Java, and Mr. Alderman
BIRCH, the Amendment was withdrawn, the origi.
nal Motion was iminimously agreed to, with the ad-
dition, that the Committee be appointed forthwith.
The Committee, famed of all the Aldermen pre-
sent, and a Councilusin from each Ward, was ap-
pointed, and withdrew.
The Committee Weil* returned to the Council
Chamber, Mr. Alderman Boom presented its Re-
port, fur a copy of . which see the Advertisement.
The Report was agreed to unanimously, and ordered
to be published in all the Morning and Evening Pa-
pers in Town.
. THANKS TO THE LATE LORD MATOR.
Mr. Deputy Via-Laws, after a warm eulogium
upon the merits of Mr. Alderman Wood, in the dis-
charge of the duties of Lord Mayor, as well as in
his Parliamentary conduct since his election as Re-
presentative--for the City, expressed his co veted.%
that the Coert would cordially acquiesce is the Re-
solution which he should have the honour to propose
in concurrence with his opinion.
The Resolution (foi a copy of which see Adver-
tisement) being read by the Town Clerk and seconded,
Mr. Dixon said, that. it was always his wish to
render the fullest justice to the merits of any indivi-
dual, who held the high office of Lord Mayor of the
City; but in order to secure an unanimous vote upon
this occasion, he could not forbear from observing,
that it Would be much better to omit the latter part
of the Motion. He was as 'anxious as any man to
gratify the honourable feelings of the late Lord
Mayor, and be thought that gratification would be
more complete, if*the vote •ot the Court should in
this instance be unanimous. But as be, as well as
others, could not consistently express any approba.
tiub of that t.4entleman's Parliamentary conduct, he,
recommended the omission of a passage which must
create dissent. The worthy Alderman had, ao doubt,
conducted himself most meritoriously as the Chief
Magistrate of this great City. He had no objection
to vote for any panegyric upon the worthy Alder-
man't hospitality, although be himself bad seen no-
thing of it ; but he must say, that it would twig
been more becoming in the worthy Alderman; it' he
had been contented with a show of hands in his fa-
vour, upon the proposition for his second election,
without resorting to a poll, or undertaking to wive
the office of Lord Mayor a second dote. -Tnis pro-
ceeding, however, he was willing to overtook, but he
did not think that Court should be called upon to de-
clue any opinion upon that Gentleman's Parliamen-
tary conduct, which, in his judgment, should be lett
to the consideration of the Livery. Upon these
grounds be should feel himself bound to hold up his
hand against the Motion, if the passage to which be
objected, were not withdrawn.
Mr. VALIANCE observed, that it was, no doubt.
competent to any individual to prevent unanimity on
this occasion, but be felt it right to submit his motion
to the lodgment of the Court, and by that judgment
he was willing to abide.
The motion was put and agreed to by a very deci-
sive majority, Mr. Dixon- and three or four other
Gentlemen only holding up their hands against it.
The Resolutioo was ordered to be duly published,
and alter some routine business, the Court adjourned.
A modun was male for presenting the usual present of a
?arse of Fifty Guineas to the Chaplain to the late Lord Mayor,
hut after some observations WOO/ MOM. WAITAIMAII,

A Petition from the Governor of- Christ's Hospital. praying a

tered into agreements with several of the City Tenants respecting
