The Orangemen of Liverpool intend to forward to her
Majesty the following address, which has been signed by
many hundreds of the brethren : _ _

"'that this truly loyal institution was so named in honour
of the successful enterprize of King William the Third, Prince
of Orangc of glorious memory to whom, under providence, the
British Isles owe their deliverance from thraldoin, spiritual
and political; and the confirmed establishment of the Protes•
tant religion.
"That we cannot look on with indifference in the present era,
whilst religion is menaced by the stratagems of papal Rome,
our glorious constitution now publicly assailed, and the dis-
memberment of the empire threatened by recent papal bulls
and enactments. We believe that it i; not less the interest than
the duty of every protestant Briton to unite and defend, by
every lawful means, the religious and civil establishments of
his country, as by these the honour of God, and the happiness
of men, are most effectually secured.
" That it has ever been our aim to promote the principles of
the glorious Reformation, and to uphold the great bulwarks
and liberties of this nation, as it has always been our undevia-
ting conviction that no foreign prelate, prince, or potentate
bath, or ought to have, any jurisdiction, power, superiority,
pre-eminence, or authority, within this realm.
"That such and such only are the principles upon which
this noble institution was founded, and has uniformly acted,
and upon which it now seeks to act by forwarding the present
memorial to the foot of the throne.
"That your petitioners, anxiously desire to express their
loyal and devoted attachment to your t ajesty's person, and
their determination to uphold and maintain your royal su
premacy in connection with those glorious protestant principles
which placed your majesty's illustrious house upon the throne
of these realms.

"That we humbly pray your majesty. in
.your wisdom, and
as it shall seem best, will put down the late intolerable aggres.
sion of the Bishop of Rome, and not only repel this wanton in-
vasion of your majesty's supremacy, but rebuke the insult
offered to your majesty's loyal protestant subjects within your
majesty's dominions.
" We beg to assure your majesty of our determination to
stand by your majesty, with our lives and proper, y, it required,
and still to bear high on our banners the scriptural injunction,
to 'Fear God and honour the King.'

"Hoping
that years of blessing may be stored for your ma-
jesty, and with wishes from our hearts for the national pros-
perity of our beloved church and country."
A meeting of the, Protestant Association of Loyal
Orangemen of Great Britain was held on Tuesday, at
Newton, by virtue of a warrant from the Right Hon. the
Earl of Enniskillen, G.M., to determine upon measures

able number of clergymen and de:egates from all parts

of the kingdom

AmOng those present were the Rev.

Burnett, L.L.D., vicar of 13radfoxd, Rev. S. Fenton, &c.
An address to the Queen was adopted, which concludes
as follows :

" We, your Majesty's memorialists, therefore, humbly pray
your Mbjesty to hearken to Protestant England speaking for
herself, torthwith to summons a Privy Council, and to issue
such orders as will call into operation the dormant- and n
lected power of the law on the points in question, and thus at
once arrest and impede the execution of the Papal bull in ti. s
realm ; that your Majesty will be pleased to summon Parlia-
ment to assemble immediately, in order that any law that has
been perverted and abused may b 5 amended or repealed, and
that new laws protective of our constitution from Papal aggres-
sion may be enacted; and that your Majesty will be graciously
pleased to admit to your councils as your Min.sters and ad-
visers none that in anywise hold, maintain, countenance, or
connive at, the corrupt doctrine and the unprincipled policy of
the Romish schism."
The following petition against papal aggression was sub-
mitted by the incumbent of St. John's Church, Old Hay-
market, to his congregation, and in twelve hours received
seven hundred and seventy-four signatures:—
