Yesterday a numerous 31ertpir of the Mechanics re.
sislent in the Metropolis, was held at the Jacob's Well
Public-house, in Barbican, to consider the propriety of
voting an Address of Congratulation to her Majesty, on
the abandonment of the Bill of Pains and Penalties.

nimously agreed to, and the meeting separated.
CaLeensytox AT WAIIRINGTON.—In consequence'
of the 4th of December being appointed for the friends
of her Majesty to express their thanks to the " King
of Kings," two of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace,
acting for the division of Warrington, were alarmed
by the is:formation on oath of five householders of
Warrington, who, it is stated, had made it appear to
the said Justices, that tumult was likely to take place,
and might be reasonably apprehended, in the said
township on that day. They, the said 31aristrates,
on the Ist of December, issued their precept, calling
upon, nominating, and appointing 3110 householders
to act as special constables. The awful day, big with
the fate of the town, at length arrived, when from
5,000 to 10,000 people assembled, and paraded the
streets of the town; and although uncommon means were
resorted to, in order to prorcke tumult, riot, or felony,
yet all was in vain ; this vast assemblage could not he
incited to rebellion : and it is impossible to conerive
any thing wore peaceable, orderly, and gratifying,
than the "tort cosecant."

MLETINO AT SI:NDEIILAND.—.It the public meeting
held in the Assembly-room, Sunderland, on Friday
se'nnight, a series of resolutions were proposed and rat-
ried ; and two addresses—the one praying his Mair‘iy
to dismiss the present Ministers, and the other offering
the congratulations of the meeting to her Majesty on
the happy termination of the proceedings against lier—
were unanimously approved of, and placed in the Ex-
change fur signatures. On Monday following a coun-
ter address to his Majesty, purporting to be that of the
" Magistrates, Clergy, Oentryi and Inhabitants," was
announced by hand-bill, and made its appearance at the
opposite end of the Exchange. Its promoters commence
by " a concern to find in the circumstances of the pre-
sent times a strong call upon them for a renewal of the
expression of their loyalty and attachment to his
Majesty's person and liovernment," concluding by an
expression of gratitude " for the protection and distin-
guished advantages which they experience under the
wisdom and counsel of his Majesty's Ministers, amidst
the most unparalleled difficulties, " and a declaration of
their readiness "to exert themselves in their several stab
lions for the due order and maintenance of our unri-
valled constitution as established in Church and State."
The number of signatures, attached to the addresses
emanating from the meeting at the assembly-room Is
upwards of 3,500. The number affixed to that of the
" Magistrates, Clergy," kc., 141.—(Darhaws (Irani(*)

centric Anniversaries are the most pleasant public
meetings known in Liverpool: '

Mr Liens,
The C 1, a most learned band
Offraden-heurird PuNDATPS, 'fore you stand ;
Their Itiy al homage at your throne to lay,
Anti prove the blessings of paternal sway.
Their griefs they fender just to make believe.
And skew their skill, in creeping up your deter :
FApressions of concern—so freely giving,
Not doubting in return—some good fat-licing.
The quantum Recruit --none can judge so well,
As London—Lincoln—Canterbury tell.
CONVIXeItb are they, who ne'er conviction brought,
Or gave to Drowsy Dniness—sparkling thought ;
They see—for none, my Liego—can look so deep,
Or Sao' the curtain of Profaneness—peep :
A band of Factious. Infidel Blaspiiensers,
Enough to frighten Theologie Dreamers ;
Plebeian retteners, who presume to judge.
And erasure too, the mild paternal—Ft•Doz !
With pain they view the rabble rogues de spire
The ancient proverb, that the aid are wise.
Res Sing and iostilting all of rank.
From fam'd St. Stephen's, to the City Bank I
They hope your Majesty is well aware,
In such opinions Cambridge bads no share.
The tendency of smelt to contemplate.
Dismays the College friends of Church and State;
'Ti. nothing less than dire disgrace and rain,
The certain down al of the country's brewind.
Devoutly (o'er the bottle) they implore.
Of worldly good things an increase of store.
Let belt regent, in our Courts may ring.
Rut Rex facil livens. we good Doctors sing.
Our sensibility admits a claim.
Our sense of prudence would not let us name ;
Which must possess each sympathetic mind,
Who to your moral Hauer are not blind.
We look for two things. to your Council strangers.
11. Worn. and reverse. from impending dangers.
WE 1.7. t RE YOU (for assurance, belt known,
Is a commodity that's quite our own).
We teed' no lessons of such grateful kind,
As those conveying to the youthful mind.
A rer eeeeee for your Person and the Merril.
A doctrine. 'neath which interest cannot lurch.
Attachment to the institutes :—we mean
A Zealous feeling 'pinst an injured Qt. WC
And above all, devoutful veneration.
Fur the profound religion of the nation.
