affected at some terrible grime he had committed.
When this crime came to be disclosed, it was nothing
more than his having eaten meat in Lent ; but when
the priest asked it ever he had committed perjuries or
assassinations, he acknowledged he had, bnt said that
such things were never matters of conscience with
him. He remarked that not a native of Englaud had
been brought forward as a witness against the Queen,
but two, and they could not say a word to her
prejudice.
Mr. RUSSELL here ruse to address the Meeting.

been alluded to by Mr. Thompson. He interrupted
that llentletnan when tie played upon the name of Mr.
Leech, because he thought such a manner of using
the same of ally Headman quite irregular and un-
becoming. As to the subject isf the 'fleeing lie

in his opinion, this was not the proper time to think

Mr. PA rrrn followed on the same side. lie said
the prcs.nt was only a part of that system which had
been long punned against the liberties as well as the
decencies of the people. But nothing could he a
greater safeguard and shield for both, than that cx•
pression of public opinion which had existed so ex-
tensivelt• at this moment in favour of her Majesty.
'I he Resolutions and Address were then agreed to
unanimously.
_ _

With regard to the state of our own country, there
were two circumstances which always contributed to
the security of their own liovernment. One was the
moral feeling!' of the people, whirb was now bruks a
down by the prosecution against the Queen, anti the
filthy details sent forth every day to the public during
the investigation into her conduct. The other was
the veneration that had always been entertained for
Royalty ; but this fence of the Constitution was now
broken down ; the mask which hail hitherto concealed
its foibles was taken away, and Royalty was exposed
in all its nakedness. When any thing was said :sgaisig
the character of the Queen, was it not 'littoral that
oleo, should ask what was the character of her hus-
band ?--(Lonol applanses.)—The morality of Kings or
Queens in this country had never before beau called
In question, but now the Parliament a as about to ar•
eogate to itself the power of dethroning a Queen on
the ground of immorality ; and on the same ground it
might assume the power of dethroning a King. It
Was not in the power of a King to deprive a Peeress of
the realm of her rank for immoral conduct. Why
should otherbranches assume such a power with respect
to Royalty? Mr. Thompson afterwards proceeded to
detail the means which had been adopted to get up the
present prosecution, by searching fur evidence in
Italy, and some confusion took place in consequence
of his making an allusion to a certain high legal cha-
racter, which was resented by a Mr. Russell. When
teasepelilisy *sae restored, be went on to describe the
artifices which he supposed must have Levu used to
prevail on Italians to 'stake up stories against her Ma-
jesty's character, and the surprise of every astir was,
that a much stronger case had not been made out: for
nothing else appeared against her but circumstantial
evidence. Here 11r. T. entered into an examination
of the evidence against the Queen, to show the impra-
haloility of • part of it. She was represented as
the must incantious woman in the world, by giving
herself op to every kind of lewdness in the presence of
foreigners; and at the 5:11111' time her accusers would
snake her out the cuisnitogest woman in the world, by
haTiug so artfully concealed her profligacy from all her
English attendants. She was represented as having
the must unbounded attachment for a man named lire-
genii ; and yet she gave up the splendid fortune that
was offered to her—a fortune which would have en-
abled her always to enjoy the company of that person,
and rouse over to this country, where an interdict most
fur ever exist against her uniting with the man whom
she so loved. She came from the enjoyment of for-
tune and pleasure, to face her enemies, and dare them
to prove any guilt against her. But see what consist-
ency there was in the conduct of the Queen's persteen-
tors. They were ready to give any money she asked
fur, and to allow her to retails all her !Honours, pro-
sided she consented to keep out of England, and that
they could get rid of her ; yet, the moment she set her
foot in England, anti refoised to accede to the proffered
terms, they commenced their persecution. Could any
thing snore strongly mark Ilse hypocrisy and wit keol-'
tress of the accusers than this conduct P If they thought
her Majesty was guilty, why make such offers—and
why not impeach her ? They dill out, however, dare to
do so; because then she would be confronted with
the witnesses, whose evidence she would be able to
blow into air: but they bronglst forward their novel
and unconstitutional proceelliug of a Bill of Pains
and Penalties, Every step, in short, talon by the
Queen's enemies, proved that they believed in their
hearts she was innocent. They allowed all the evi-
dence aglinst her to he published ; although, on the
trials for thigh Treason, the Judges woold nut, fur the'
sake of traitors, allow any evidence against them to be
published, until the trias were concluded. Intleel, if
the Queen had been guilty, she was snore slotted
against thin' sinning : and more deserving of compas-
sion, after having been discarded by him whose ditty
it was to protect and cherish her. Our Saviour had
declared, that hr who put away his wife roused her to
cuuantit adultery ; and yet au attempt was wade to
divorce the Queen on the ground of atiultery. After
various other observations, Mr. T. concluded with
moving certain Resolutions, anti reading an Address,
whirls he should propose to be presented to tot ah...
jesty.
11r. EDIVA RDFt seconded the motion for to
the Resolutions and the Address. He said, that
although men in power, might try to degrade the'
people, wed the highest subject in the country, it
was necessary that posterity should know that the
people had no share in such abominable procreaine

Mr. 'I tissiirsoss then moved, that Mr. Alderman
W liman 1•r requested to know her Majesty's pleasure
as to the day on which her Majesty would be pleased
to ret vials the Address. At the saute tiu:e, he said the
Worthy Alderman had just intimated to him his in-
tention to send the beadles round with notices as to
the day when the Adtkrl4s should be presented ; and
indeed he thought it would be very proper for as wary
persons as possible to totsrnible together and accompary
the procession. Ile then moved the thanks of the
Meeting to the Worthy Alderman, whit h acre voted
with loud cheeting.
Mr. Alderman WAITHN aN took this opportunity
of delivering his opinion on the present prosecution
carried on against her Majesty ; in the course of
which the witnesses had committed the grossest ie-
consistencies anal prevarications. Never, he said.
was there such an instance of injustice and rruel:y
lagainst a British subject ; and he contended that het•
Majesty cuttid tie* have a fait• trial before Jud¢e•.
who were an much under the influence of the Cron as
as the present House of Peers ; anal it would be
rowardly in the people not to give such a proceediti.;
every degree of constitutional resistance in their
i power. Nu state necessity had been shown for this
proceeding ; for if her Majesty had consented to stay
ahroadohe would have been passed over withent no-
tire, and would hare been bribed by large sums taken
out of the pswkrts of the people. It was an intpu-
• dent lie to say that Ministers were prosecuting for the
State, and it was necessary that the State should tell
them so; anal if it was a prosecution for the sake of
the State, how WAA it that they had ant rounded the
the nsetroplis with troops ? They did so to subdop
the ferment they themselves had raised. Nothing
could be more stupid titan the conduct of (lovern-
intuits in general, anal in this country as well as
lothers. They made use of solstices at the very time
ahem standing armies were bring,ag ;.bunt revolu-
tions all over Europe. The revolution in ItiStl
produced by the shouts of the military : assil must it
not be madness in any tioveritnient to plat., depend-
' rove in a b.•da. that might become the iostrnment of
its own destruction. Ile courluded with estpmsina
his ark non holgement for the honour done him.

31r. Timm PSIINI now moved the Thanks 'lithe Met•t-
iutf to the t'hurrhn•ariens for the use of the church.
lle said, it was nut often that the inhabitants of the
Ward tvere favoured with the use of the church ; for
the venerahle llergy wt n Mt very religions, that they
email not hear the idea of letting' the I ;torch be pro-
faned by any discussion on the principles of liberty.

Yesterday a 3leeting of the Inhabitants of the P.t
