OBJECTS OF .1 sewn COUNTY ADDRBSS

DEFE.CIED.

In eonseqnence of a requisition %ivied by the Lord
Lieutenant and Convener of the County of Aberdeen,
a Alerting of the Noblemea, Intputy Lieutenants, aid
Justices of the Peace of Aberdeen, took place on the
211th instant, fur the ostensible purpose of voting an
Address to the Throne. The business of the Meeting
was opened by the Marquis of llnntley, Lord I.h.tite-
nant, who stated, that in consequence of a requisition
signed by several Gentlemen of the Comity, he had
called the present lleetinJ: ti .ii'lirif an opportunity of
expressing their loyalt :til attachment to his Majrst:-.
j Au Address was then moved by Mr. Irvine, of Mon ,
and seconded by Mr. Menzies, of Pitfooidels, Cos-
' vetoer of the County, which was immediately opposed,
not with reference to the terms in which it was couched,
but in consequence of a decided opinion that it was
intended indirectly to approve of the conduct of hi{
Majesty's Ministers. This belief having been stater'.
the louver and Seconder of the Address strongly and
uneoptivo.tally denied that they, in the most olistart
manner, intended to approve of the conduct of Admi-
nistration, or in any respect agitate such a question,
their only object heirs g to express their loyalty to
the Throne, in which, of course, they had no doubt
of an unanimous sentiment pervading the fleeting.
In particular, the Seconder of the motion declared,
that es fit, from ill/cut/log' by the .44dress to •
depprore of the to, dont O' Ministers, directly Me
moot:wry "me tSr rose. A second address was then
proposed by Mr. Skene, of Skene, more strongly
expressive of Loyalty than t'ie former, but no-
ticing, with regret, the dissatisfaction which appeared
to pervade the minds of a large majority of his Majesty's
subjects, produced by the measures of Administration.
The Meeting then ditioled, and, as might Isere hero
anticipated in a Scot's county, the Amendment was
lost by a large majority, a result whiTh ought to I.
perfectly satisfactory to those who had opposed the
original Address, as after the impression on their
minds, that even a tacit approval of the conduct of
Ministers was disavowed, nothing could be more
gratifying than joining in expressions of loyalty
and unshaken attachment to his Majesty's Person mid
the Constitution of the Country.
