THE PRINCES° OF WALLS.
The name of Mr. Aide:matt Wood having Leon
pealed from various parts of tine Ball,
Mr. Alderman Woon addressed the I.iiery as f,O.
lows :---" As it *nos appeared iu the pu. prints v.-.

brought under consideration. Upon this sallject
have not had the lea's( communication with any iudi-
victual connected with the Princess of Wales, nor

able, that much doubt whether she is provided with
any suet' persons as usually surround the branches of
the Royal Family. My reason for suggesting this
Address is merely attachment to the Royal Family,
and more particularly to the Princess of Wales, to
! whom this Corporation has, on former occasions, paid
attention. It may,-perhaps, be recollected that the
: City of London presented a congratulatory Address
Ito the King, Queen, and Royal Family, on the mar.
riage of the Rege; with the Princess of Wales, and
another on the birth of the I riucess Charlotte, from
which I .will read a fesr. words." ••

Mr. Alderman ATKINS called the worthy Alder-
man to order: he objected to the intradectiow of a
Witter Jf such grave insportance into a discussion to
which it was wholly irrelevant—( Disapprobation.)
—He appealed to the Livery, as men of sense and
honour, whether, under the present circumstances,
an argument. or even a conversation on such a sub-
ject could be permitted. •
The Lone Alviroa-said2.that when Mr. Aldermaa
Wood had stated his. reasons for not at present
bringing forward his motions he had done all that
was now or necessaiL
Mr. Alderman Wool) added, that he should be s 3.
tisfied with assigning his'exitives for not suhtniitieg
to the Livery the Alaildgess to the Princess of Wah,
which he had prepared and had in his pocket. He
had not consulted any one of his friends regar:!iag
it, but had acted entirely on his own suggestiow.—
, He thought that the Livery would agree with, him,
that so distiugeished a CharaCter should not be left
in the -sittseVicin In which the was now placed.-4
[Loud applause.]

The subject being dropped,
Mr" WAITIIMAN moved, that the Thanks of the
Livery..he given to the Lord Mayor, for his impartial
conduct in the Chair. He took thisepportuitity of
noticing an egression which had fallen from one of
the Members for the City, that he (Mi. Waithittati)
attempted to lead the Livery—no assertion could be
more unfounded—[it is a Libel]. The Livery
would not allow themselves to be led by any per,
sons ; nor would he (Mr. W at any time attempt
to dictate the course of their procudings. Neither
on his tart would he be drawn in to give his appro.
bation to a measure, of which as yet'he knew no..
thing. His friend (Mr. Wood) was certainly
.out
of order in now.bringtiog forward the subject of as
Address to the Princess of Wales, however merrito;
rious might be the design, or the mode of carrying it
into execution. On ,this matter, he (Mr. Waith-
man) would not now pledge hirtstlf, by offering any
opinion. .
The vote to the Lord Mayor • was then agreed te,
who expressed 'his gratitude, stating however, that
for the mere discharge of a public duty no man de-
served, tiatuks.

Mr. WArritstast moved the Thanks of the !101l to
Sheriffs Birth and. Heygate, who severally expressed
their high-sense of the honour .conferred epob them,
and their determination, while in office, ta maintain
the tights and privileges of thp Corporation. The
vote was passed unanimously. • '
After the Thanks had also been carried to Messrs.
Waithmatt and navel!, for their steady zeal in the
cause of public liberty, the Hall was adjourned.
