PROCEEDINGS AT PUBLIC MEETINGS.

At Ipswich there has been a pulic meeting, held.hy
authority of tlw bailiffs. The original address pro-
posed, earnestly implored his Majesty "to dismiss
those evilcounsellors from his preseoce who have yin-
latedhlsc first principles of law and justice in their
obsrious proceedings against the Queen Consort."
An iimendment was proposed, full of the standing
phtases of ultra-loyalty, but saying nothing of the
real point at issue—the conduct of Ministers : it was
rejected by a large majority, and the original Address
carried.

MINTING AT PIINRYN.—.A TrluiAtlott fur a meeting
to address his Majesty having been cautiously circa-.
lated in the borough of Penryn, was at ieogth pre-
sented to the Mayor, who convened * 'sleeting of the
inhabitants a that place and its vicinity (or Thursday
morning. At the appointed tiniu?tVr:fy iudividuals,
most of whom are half-pay officers, andiiersons
ing places under liovernment, attettiSek out of a popu-
lation of 3,000. A member of the, Verpoeatiou pro,
posed an Address, which is almost, an eNact counter-
part of that presented by the Court of Aldermen of
London; and about twenty hands being.held up in its'
favour, it was declared to be carried. One ofeht•party
lios having discovered an error in the wording of
it, it was proposed to correct it, but the meeting haring
received an accession of numbers, it was felt to he nu-
safe to leasard the experiment of again putting it to
the vote and it is so sent forward with " all its im-
, perfections on its head."

Mrs To Ala/RISS HIS MI./VITT IN TIM Bo-
lo+ sat nr Ncireortr, CORNWALL.—Some perilous de-
sirons of gratifying his (trace the Duke of Northum-
berland, the patron of this Borough, caused a relni-
sition for rincetin.g to address his Majesty to be deli-
vered to James Langdon, Esq., and the Rev. Charles
bethlnidge, Vianders of the Borough. In conse-
quence, a meeting of the inhabitants took place at the
Northumberland Arms Inn, on Tuesday last. Mr.
Langdon was called to the chair, and opened the basi-
nets in the regular way. Mr. William Franke, (me
of the most respectable inhabitants of the place, itnautF-
diately rose and spoke nearly as follows :•—" Mr. Chair-
man, 1 feel myself called upon to state, that after ma-
ture consideration of the subject of this meeting, there
is but one opinion. Our loyalty his !sever been called
in question; and having addressed his Majesty oo his
acces.iou lathe throne, to address him again at this
time, wroth! be to act like • man who thinking by
adding oath to oath to establish his veracity, only
weakens his credit by repeated asseveretions. I there-
fore beg leave to propose aveseltition,, that an address
to his Majesty at 'hit peeing, ,Is wholly uncalled for."
The resolution being seconded by Mr. N. Burt, was
put and carried with only eat dissentient voice, and
the meeting was dissolved. Shortly after, the egret
of his Grace, the patrols, appeared with an.addrom
which, like that adopted at Launceston, was ready
prepared by his Grace's Orders, to save the inhabi-
tants the trouble of thinking foe themselves—he was
greatly mortified on learning -that the meeting Lad
not waited his coming but being resolved not wholly
to lose his labour, he has hawked the address round
fur signatures in a private manner. Neatly all the
respectable inhabitants have refined to sign it ;
though he has obtained the signatures of the clerk
and sexton of the parisii ; the blacksmith who works
fur his Grace, the keeper of the turnpike, and several
parish paupers. Thus graced, it will, no doubt, be
announced in the Gazette, and boasted of by (iii
Courier, as the. Loyal Address ff the liikahitaats of
the iloroirgrh of Norport and Me Parish of St.
Strphems.
ULTRA LOYAL MEETING AT FA Laseerm—The de
pendants on Government, and expectance of its fa von rs,
who abound in such a part as Valtnonth, which is the
principal station fur packets, Ike., got ap lately a re-
quisition to the Mayor, for a meeting of the inhabit-
ants of Falmouth, to address his Majesty. To avoid
as mach as possible the opposition they had reason to
apprehend, they expunged from their purposed All-
' deem every expression that conveyed an approval of
the proceedings against the Queen, and detennined to
occupy the Town-Hall in !ince, and at an early hour.
'l'lie Mayor took the Chair, and explained the objects of
the meeting. A resolution expressive of abhorrence
for the lieratiotisoess of the press, and of the propri.'ty
. .

of expressing •their attachment to his Majesty's person
and Government, was moved by Mr. Young, an at-
torney and clerk of the Magistrates for the divides,
