Ale. J. Reef then a•lilresksd the Mesting. lie cons- j
meneed by entreating their attention, in attempting!
to address them npon a subject so interesting to every
person is England, train the King on his Throne, to
the pliant in his cot. Ile would not go into the dis-
gusting details which had been thrust fbeward on the
public attention, under the dinisy pretext of guarding
the public morals. This was not oaly the case of the
Queen, but the case of justice. It world be handed
down to posterity, that a Prinress by birth was
brought to this country, awl shortly afterwards be-
reaved of domestic happine.s. She •areely berme a
wife, before she was driven from her potato.; (Clie,.re,
and cries of " No, no.") she hail searrrly bee a
mother, befom she ex; e-ieneed the ititii.otities which
were so well known. She was *melted by spies, and I
after numberless insults, came to the determination,
of leaving this country,. She tonight relief by searching
into the antiquities of •I;stnet na•i•o“. She was then
watched by siiles. and the Milan Commission was cgs!
tahlished. Mr. R. u.:vorted to his late Majesty's
support of the Queen; but no sooner did the late
King depa: this life—scarcely laid in his grave,
when she was again perserniesi. Ile then took a rev
view of the threats held out against her Mak...3-, and
her magna n i HMIs refusal of the 50,1100/., and observed,
that, in spite of the :pep/Mier of the Bnurbons, 'rho

self on the English people, who had smivartuly pro-
tected her. Mr. R. next commented on the evidence,
anti character of the Italian witnesses, steel aninnol-1
veiled on the euntluct of the persons constituting the
Milan Commission. Ile then w •tit into a review of
the dirisions on the Bill of Pains and Penalties, and
observed that the most distinguished and sortnoes of
the nobility were oo the sitle of her Ma:estv. Ile I! en
pass-d a high enoominui on the character of Lord
Erskine, and contrasted Lis co:Motet wi.h that of the
Lord Climeellor t and allnded to the thivernment of
Charles the Second, when Russel was beheaded.--
Titerr was here a cry of " tuition" from a person
present. Mr. Hutt defonled liinis..!f from the charge
of wandering from the t:tit•stien, and afar noticing
the conduct and excenti in of Anne I!..!rru, and thank-

of the news that tbe Hill of Pain. and Penafties had

their Joyful feel:nv4 till ill occasi,:n. l'onvivial par-
ties were hehl at the different inns, where her Jlajes
ty's health was drank with enthusiasm.
BetoFtlito.—Thin tows was partially illuminated on
Taiestlay East, in honour of the Queen. 'rite Mayor,
and many nther respectable inhabitants, did not illu-
minate. lireat praise is due to the Mayor for his ex-
ertions in prerening peace and etoml order.

the eveifint: by a splendid illumination. It is tx-
perted a fat bullock and some. sheep will be flistribnied
among the poor of the town, to commemorate the des-
hurt' of the green bag, and the acquittal of the
Queen.
De s4T ‘nt.r. Nov. 15.--The town of Dunstable sins
must brilliantly illuutinate.l un Tuesday evening, in
honour of the Quern.

Mr. Fox. a Ilissenting Vergymaii, next read the
Address to her Majesty. The Bev. taentiessaan then
said, that he considered her Majesty a must persecuted
woman—that was his sincere conviction. The ques-
tion was not a party o.te. It was not a contest between
Whigs and Taaries—t..ctween Ile:tamers and t:n• tii.-
holders of the Borough system ; blit it was a contest
between the prim lister of ju tier and the principles of
persecntion—the fetlissgs of every honest man must
abhor so foul a proceeding. Iler Majesty had been
beset by spies—accusation after accusation hail been
brought forward against her—she had always resisted
and defeated her enemies--twenty-five years of her life
had been oecupi-11 in resistin:r oppression ; but the
people would no longer—they were pledged tat her de-
Anse and her honour, awl they would triumph over
the enemies of the Queen and of the Constitution.
After sonic further observations, the Bev. amities's:in
concluded by moving that, as many ladies and Gentle.
men of the parish as miOet wish to attend, shoold go
up in procession to preseiat the Address to her Majesty.
The Rev. slr. Aspl.l\ll strott!.:ly censured the cum
duct of Ministers for the amennstitutional part they
had acted—they had acted a part which wonld excite
abhorrence in the breast of every honest man. After
the alisg•raceful pat they had acted, they would not
dare to meet the House of Commons. They had let
in a tide of filth on the country, which made England
offensive in the nostrils of all Europe; they nould not
meet the House of C ::::: mons; perhaps at the moment
that he addressed the meeting, the Black Rod was
shutting up the lips of their liepreaentatives; but the
country too held a black ro I—the public voice would
be as it were a scourge to punish those worthless Mi-
&stets for the injury and shame they had brenght
*pen the country. '1 he Rev. Ilentleman concluded
by moving a Resolution, expressive of the hopes of the
meeting, that his -31ajesty would he pleased to dismiss
his present sliatisters frosu his presence and Lis Coun-
cils, which was carried Almost unatshoonsly.
Thanks were then rioted to the Queen's Counsel, to
Lady Amite Hamilton, to Mr. Alderman Wood, and to'
the Independent Vress: and to the Chairassa, for his
impartial and inairpendeut emoted in tirr chair.
The meeting was dics)lred about lire o'rlerk.

At the village of Stanmore there were great rt-
joicings, on Monday last, fur the triumph of the
Qtteen. The Rev. Mr. Chattvelin was diverse to ad-
mit persons who applied into the thnrelt to ring the
hells. Some of the pemtiotts, howevrri ascended by
the ivy into the belfrrv, and rang a merry peal and
Mr. Clatterbork, the brewer, distributed two barrels
of excelleat Ale among the populace, in celebrities of
die Queen's acquittal.
Art.v.sicay.--Ott Tnesday last the irrhaloitants of
;Aylesbury testified their joy, in a variety of ways, at
the virtn.tl rejection of the Rill of P.! .* and Penalties
by the Maw of Lords.
Lord Nugent, on the same night, evinced his ern-
/why with the feelings of his ronstiments by a large
bonfire: and Vol. Aubrey, of living-honse, we under-
stand, also testified his joy at the rate of the tobnJzious
bill by illustainatiog his house.
