Yesterday a Common Hall was held, pursuant to re-
quisition, to consider the propriety el petitioning both
Houses of Parliament to resist all further proceedings
against the Queen, and to take such steps, as in their
wisdom might seem fit. to put her Majesty in full and
immediate possession of all the rights and privileges
to which she is entitled as Queen Cotosort of the Realm.
At one o'clock the Lord JilayorHuie upon the hust-
ings, accompanies! by Aldermen Wi.4l 00.1
Mr. ravell, and others of the Common Council, and
when the Crier made the nsual proclamation ending
with " God save the King," the hall resounded with the
response of " !led save the Queen."
The LORD Mavo• then came forward, and said, that
be had received • Requisition signed by a great number
of respectable members of the Livery, and that, in com-
pliance with that Requisition, he hat i takeu the first op-
'portunity for convening a Common Hall. lie felt it
unnecessary to rA upon them to alto-if every Gentleman
who wished to address them, a fair and impartial hear-
ing, and lie made the observation now because it was at-
tempted to cast a resection on their conduct elsewhere,
as not being such as to afford an opportunity of free
end equal discussion. Those persons svho h.ul said so,
hail not themselves set a very meritorions example to
public meetings in another place.—(fries of" the Man-
sion House and Sir William Curtis".)—lle world only
add, that he was sure the Livery of London, in Co iiiiii on
Hall assembled, would not follow that example, which
had been set them by their vilifiers, but would then, and
on all otber occasions, uphold their character for t:reo-
rom, good conduct, and propriety. —(Applause.) —He had
to communicate to the Common flail, that since their
last meeting, the Address voted to her Majesty had been
carried up by him. attended by a most respeetable
of his fellow-citizens, who were most graciously re-
el-iced, and an Answer was returned by her Majesty,
which the proper officer would then read (applause) to
the Livers'.

The goiven's Answer to the Address of the Livery was
then read, and received with acclamation.
His Lordship then stated that he had the honour of
receiving two letters from Lords Holland and Erskine,
thanking tie Lirery for the vote of approbation at the
last Hall.—(Applanse.)—He had unfortunately left the
letters behi.4), but they,would be there in tare in be
"' ‘4lftek Se Mr 'ing -minuted.

Aeetii
Lion for convening the Hall was then read,

The Regal
after which,
Mr.itv LAN o, a Barrister, came forward and said, it was
the first time of his appearing before the Livery, and to
a great part of them he believed he was unknown, but
having an honest iutention in a good cause, he had no
fear or doubt of meeting with their sopport. lie was born
a Citizen, and was in heart, as well as by birth one of
that body whom he now ventured to address. lic was a
friend to Parliamentary Reform, he was a friend to Civil
and Religious Liberty, a friend to justice in every sense
of the word, and therefore a friend to the cause of our
much-injured Queen.—(Loud applause.)—Tbis was his
character, as far as he hail any pretensions to a public
one. if it was a passport to their good will he ought to
he satisfied with it. flies then was the first time in
which he had madellis appearance on the London boards
as an actor in the farce )nst about to he performed.—
(A langh.)—Tber had been told that County Meetings
were farces, and if the Meetings of the County of South-
ampton, attended, as it was, by the wealth and rank
of that part of England, was to be denominated a farce,
the Meeting of the Livery could hardly hope to escape
from being stigmatized by the name. Was this lan.
goage consistent with the dignity of the subject'.- (Cries
of", no.")—Were they to be told that Meetings of their
countrymen, constitntionally assembled to take into con-
sideration the unprecedented and alarming state of the
Public Distresof and to look for relief, were only farces
They might, indeed, appear farcical enough to those
who were rolling in splendour, and eujoying thousand
upon thousands by the grace and favour of the Crown ;
but to himself and others like him, who earned their
bread by their honest labour, they were neither a farce
nor a joke.—(Applanse.)—lt was melancholy to witness
the people of this country labouring under every burden
of aggravated distress, while the first subject in the
realm replied to their complaints by insult and calumny.
—(Cries of " bravo !")—lndeed there never wax a time
whim the state of the country warred so dreadfnlly in
all its interests. Look to the state ot agricnitttre—what
was the fact ? The fanner who grew the bread did not
receive such a price for it as would pay the expense of
cultivation. Look to the manufactures—small as the
price of bread was. the artisans of England were scarcely
able to purchase it.—(ileao, bear !)—Along with this
was the Intolerable weight of taxation, which was 00.
paralleled at any former time. With respect to this
taxation he would have again stunething to soy which
was connected with the greet object ot the Meeting.
What was that object ?—tire case of the Queen.—
Fie then preicemled to advert with notch acuteness and
ability on the various circumstances of the case, and
next commented on the illegality of the act, by %illicit
the Que..n's name was left out of the Liturgy. Br the
application of the 23th sec. of the 13th and 14th Of
Charles 11. to the case, he sail, that although the
Qu..en'a name was left out of the Liturgy, it was not left
out of the hearts of the people ; and though she was not
prayed for by. the Church, she had the prayers of every
honest man in the kingdom.—(Loud cheers.)—lle then,
after some similar observations, went on to say, that the
' 13111 of Pains and Penalties did not arise from any mall=
riotts feeling which the Ministers entertained towards
the Queen. It wits brought forward with the design
of keeping Ministers in their phowe, by veiling the eyes
of the people to the existing state of distress, that the)
might not look to the actual sufferings of the country,
and call the stewards of its revenues to their account.—
(ifear, hear.)—After some remarks upon the conduct of
these who fabrieeted in holes and corners whit they
tulonanted Loyal Addresses, which vilified the peo-
Ole and eirreived the King, be concluded by toevin the
Revolotioss porsoatit to the Requisition,
Mr. Haw. seconded the Reseiutioes. 91.8 •

• Mit.Scncurcs said, he bad-always understood it to be
a elate maxim, that subjection and protection were re-
ciprocal terms, and of equal extent in ail civil communities.
So long as the Law protected us from oppression, we
cheerfully acknowledged its power, and endeavuoiredl
to euforce its operation, and hence Subordination
was preserved through all ranks of Society, be-
cause every one considering himself under the shelter
of the Law, felt bound to support and maintain a
Government which administered it impartially to the
People.—(Hear). But when the Law ceased to afford
us protectiou,—uhen the caprice of a Cabinet Xliuis-
try was set up as the standard of political Jus
lice, when the edict of' an individual was proclaimed
as equivalent to legislative authority to suspend or dis-
pense with the execution of law, then we were no longer
under the administration of Law, but ander the coercion
and tyranny of a Proscriptioe, and therefore from the
moment, it should he resettled. that the Qiteen about be
deeded thi restoration of her noose to theLrturgy, 4
precedes( would be eittsislitheal for destroying the liber-
ties of the people, by indicting punishment apes iodiri-
dual% where there was no conviction of crime, and this
would eventually lead to a general Proscription of all
persons any way olonoxioue to the existing goverment.
if the Ministers accomplished their purpose, by eac;uil-
ing the Queen's name from the Liturgy, and thus de-
grading her, they would indict the punishment intended
by a Bill, which they have professedly withdrawn—they
would pass the ruhiron, and freedom of the aubjeci
would be lost for ever—(mar, hear.) Mr. S. remarked,
that Lord Castlereagh, whom Shakespeare would bay,
denominated the great toe of the Cabinet Couaril, inuA
have htlown the maxim, coma cetwarste efectas ream/,
the cause ceasing the elie.et must cease ; but what did los
do? He advised first that the Queen should he degraded
by omitting her name from the Liturgy, and thee, that a
Bill of Pains and Pe:i.ilties should be introduced to de-
grade her, after she had been degrided. Now the de-
gradation of the Queen, was the sole object of the Bill,
tt hick having miscarried, the pains and penalties of it
could nut be enforced, for the rule of law was, aec. -
sorisup regwitur priacipale; the principal, that is to se.,
the Bill therefore has been abandoned, all kind of degr i-
llation necessarily followed the fate of the Bill, as a ou ot-
ter of course. la this instance of previous degradatioa,
by onsitiing the Queen's name from the Liturgy, Lars!
Castlereagh put the Cart before the Horse, a blowsier a i-
tural enough for his Lordship, mitten every body kaea-
was au I rishwan.--(Laughter.) Irishuian,didlesay.wl.r
then his Lordship's dereliction and hypocrisy were so
intuit the worse. because that Country of Ireland whit is
nave him birth, must necessarily have adapted his breast
originally for the reception of every humane and gentle
virtue.—(Applatise.) Human nature revolted at the me re
contemplation of indicting puuisliment undesei redly in
the meanest individual; whit recreation then was due to
those ineu who would dare to insult, degrade, and po-
nish the Queen Consort of (treat Britain, after finding it
impossible to convict her of guilt. It was a libel on lois
Majesty to conceive that the exclusion of the Queen's
name, was his own voluntary act. His mind was too
Erma, noble, and generous, to do such an art.. If be hail
been made to acknowledge the transaction as his own,
it must have been under Cabinet duress, fur it was im-
possible to he the • lontaiteous and unfettered operatics
of his own S. said he would give the lie .E-
-rect to any one, that would tell hien tiwit lirorge the IV.
, could voluntarily do an act like that, so contrary to him-
self, so contrary to regal dignity, and repngnant to Ill-
:man feeling I and therefore he accused the men
advised the wafture, as hostile to the House of Brun--
wick in general, and to his Majesty in particular —s
measure which. tended to hold op the Ring's Majesty as
an object of irreverence and hatred; who, if his ;weak -
ous councillors were rote iiredb and a parliamentar
reform established, might he hailed by a grateful nation
as the father of his petop!e.—(Applanse.)
Mr. Alderman Irstrnmax next stood forward, an I
was received with applause. lie sal I, he principally canse
forward to congratoilate the Livery, that the fact se es
now established and admitted, that they were a re;ru!ar
deliberative body, notwithstanding the imputations that
had been thrown upon their pemeeedings • vet it hail be i
recently shewn, that meetings even of the Merchants
and Bankers of London were not qua:dial to set a goj 1
example.—(llear, bear.)--It was expected, that it cer-
tain tientlemen would venture from their secret ;dace+,
their holes and corners. that they would oppose itl
manly manner those independent gentlemen who held
ilihfereut sentiments—that they would not by clamour
and violence interrupt proseeedings which they bail tot
the talent to oppose. By the laws of retaliation, use:,
were allowed to examine the conduct of individuals Wll.,
issued declarations from private places, charging the
people with disloyalty, sedition, and rebellion.--(Ap-
plause.)—Such declarations were made; and one Wsr.l
in particular charged the City of London with Imsein4
laboured to promote disaffection, and to bring time ins'i-
tntions of the country intu contempt. By it horn were
such imputations thrown out? By men who put in',)
their pockets the money of the people—men who set ty
for being exclusively loyal. Thuse very loyal tientlooneu
belonging to the !wish of St. Andrew above floe B
had lately indulged in what might be called a loyal joS.i-
fication.—(A laugh.)—lint that eat not new. The loy-
alists of oilier times, like those of the present slay,
thouolit that nothing promoted good humour so nitica
as a bottle.—(A laugh.)—He recollected having read
an old ballad, published about a century ago, a passag
which was by means inapplicable to the present times.
It began thus
1- Brave Cavaliers, be merry;
Keep op your souls Cites Beeches' howls,
And drown your cam in sherry."--es--(A laugh.)
The Gentleman who presided at the jollification of St.
Andrew's held a place which produced him only 2.0001.

a friend of hie, was also a placeinan ; there was alsa
