TfrE NATIbNAL REGISTER. _ it will be pmper in this meeting, at this important and momentous crisis, when the unbounded ambition of our enemy calls forth all the energies of his government and of his people, to address his Majesty, and to assure him of our Srm determination to support, at all times, and by every means in our power, his just rights, and the interests of thy: British Empire. And to state to him, at the same time, that, although we must be supposed to feel the ell'ects of his adversary's exer tions against the commerce and manufactures of the country, yet we hose no interests but what are identified with the dignity of his crown, and the independence of the►e kingdoms; and fur ther, that we are fully satisfied it is only by persevering in prompt, vise, and vigorous measures, that we are to hope for the attainment of our wishes, a safe, honourable, and lasting pence." An address, drawn up, agreeably to the tenor of this resolu tion, was agreed to with equal unanimity, and transmitted to the Secretary for the Home Department, to be presented to his Majesty. This address, though so general in its terms, that all the na tion might suhscribe it, has given great joy to our ministerial papers, who have eagerly contrasted it with the meetings of the Yorkshire weavers, held for the purpose of petition►ng for peace. On the other hand, it has been greatly ridiculed by the opposition papers, who tell sonic curious stories about the man ner in which it was procured, and the circumstances which pre vented its terms from being made more decisively painted in favour of the present ministers. These latter statements, how ever, ►est merely on anonymous letter:, and therefore &seise no credit. ~~ corded :—Mr. P. carrying Lord Kensington, who weighs 17 stone, ran 50 vards against Mr. W. 11.
