toe: •Mr. Addresses WAITOM tx said, he had a question
now to put to his I ords'iip, of particularly great im-
Plortance to the rights and privileges of the citizens of
oodon. It was well knqwn that on a recent occasion
"eliere bed been a most gross violation of the privileges
I 'orthe Livery, by Om introduction of troops into the
' iiiaity of the city during a time that an Address to
s
r most gracious Majesty Queen Caroline was under
1 istutsion in Ouildhall. *That such had been the fact
. there could be no possible doubt, as one of them was
' seen at the door of toe Common Hall while the Livery
sere so assembled, and he had himself seen one of
l4eos in the streets near the Hall. Various statements
. esal appeared in the newspapers, which, whether roe-
-.rest er Net, had stated that his Lordship had avowed
"ilk this. act Was done with his knowledge and with
ia-eonseut. He therefore now thus publicly asked
a lir Lordship, whether such was the fact, and, if so,
what kind of communication had takes place between
' El% and the Secretary of Mtate,'and what grounds his
• Lordship bad to justify him in taking such a step ?
LTO these questions he now requested an answer In pro-
'NenVEß the Court---(Lood cheers.)
"t". The LORD Matoe replied, that it was at his request

Queen's business, he felt it his bounden duty to have

rights of Englishmen, and the privileges of the City of
LontiOtt, then it would be the height of Injustice to
ot.erlook theru.—(t;heeee.)--The Corporation of Lon-
don had two important duties to perform. Every

re ',cohering that he was sent Owlet to represent and
guard such interests. Were then the Livery of Lou-

Second. when Jesits was sent to prison, however illegal

isewas proud to say that such ezamples had not

ranted a Common Hall, when he and his brother Al-

were to be overawed by soldiers or by any power, then
