The very great frauds which have heretofore been com- mitted upwii the Proprietors and the Public, iw the matter of Eyee- admissions, has made it necessary for the Sub Commit- . tee to devise the most effectual control in a matter so itn- poriant'to the interests ot the Company, whose affairs they are called upon to administer, and to those who ar. e really entitled to the freedom of admission. For the present, therefore, they bare deemed it expedient to exact, under the authority of the Act of Parliament, the conditions aboye stated for the prevention of frauds, which will be strictly unforced.

Soda Water, when kept in jars, after a short time loses a considerable portion of carbon c gass ; the carriage of it from place to place is very troublesome, and the risk and in- convenience gieat, besides the large space it occupies, aud the consideration of its getting worse every hour. Soda Wat! r also being put into bottles not perfectly clean, ill corked, nm Shite tilled, ( See. & c. has occasioned numerous and well founded complaints; all uf which the Oxygenated Soda is calculated lo remedy ; and being perfectly free from all those objections and inconveniences, possesses the power at all times of impregnating the water with fixed air to any degree, and produces double Soda Water with as much fa- cility as single. The Oxygenated Soda remains in all climates perfectly un- impaired, and is thereiire particularly recommended to Mer- chants and Captains of ships, as a very useful and bcneticia! article for exportation. Besides the advantages before stated, which the Oxyge- nated S. ! a possesses of always giving to the water its proper and due proportion of fixed air, it is also much cheaper, aud therefore better calculated to be put into the power of all who may stalnl in need of its aid, as wfeil as those who take it as a pleasant drink at table.

M0JAISK, SEPT. 10, 1812. On the 4th, the Emperor set nut from < J jat, and encamped near the poet of Gritneva. The 5' h, at six o'clock it) the morning, the army put itself ill motion. At two in the afternoon, we perceived the Russians formed with their right upon Moskwa, the left upon the heights oa the left bank of the Kologha. At 1* 200 toiees in advance of the left, the enemy had begun to fortify a fine height, between two woods, where they had placed nine or 10,000 men. The Emperor having reconnoitred it, resolved not to lose a moment, and to carry this po- sition. Orders were given to the King of Naples to pass the Kologha, with the division Comptns and the cavalry. Prince Poniatowsky, who had marched on the right, was in a condition to turn the position. At four o'clock the attack com- menced. In one hour the enemy's redoubt was carried, with the cannon ; the enemy's corps driven from the wood, and put to fight, leafing the third part on the field of battle. At seven in the evuiing the fifing ceased. On the ( i'h, at two o'clock in the morning, ( lie Emperor surveyed the enemy's advanced posts: the day was passed in reconnoitring. The enemy were in a position much contracted. Their left was weakened bv the loss of the position on the day be. fore— backed by a large wood, supported by a fin? height, crowned by a redoubt planted with 25 pieces of cannon. Two other lieig1 ta, crowned with redoubts at 100 paces from each- other, pro- tected their line, as far as a large village which the enemy had dtstroyed, to cover the ridge with artil- lery and infantry, and to support the centre. Their right extended b> hind the K'dogha, in the rear of the village of Borod no, mid was supported by two fine heigh's, crowned with redoubts, and fortified with hM cries. This position appeared strong and favourable, I was easy to manoeuvre, and lo ob- lige the enemy to evacuate it ; but lhut would have been rei o• » » « " « • « our object, and the position was not im! g• <-'. M. ffii iently strong to render it necessary to avoid tijilting. L WW easy to perceive that ihe redoub's weie but half formed, the fosse shallow, end net. her palisaded nor defended with clievaux de- lri- e. We reckoned the enemy's force at about X20 or 130,000 men. Our forces wen equal; but t ie s> M erto ity of our troops was notdonb fnl. On the 71 !>,• at two in tlie morning, the Emperor was suitauuded by the Marshals in the position talten the evening before. At half- past five o'clock the'sun rose without clouds : it had rained the pre- ceding evening. " This is the sun of Austerlitz,' said the Emperor. Though but tr. e month of Sep- tember, it « as as cold as a December in Moravia. The army received the omen : the drum beat, and the following Order of the Day was re » id :— " Soldiers, behold the field of battle you have So much de- sired 1 henceforth victory depends on you, it is necessary to us ; it will give us plenty, good quarters for the winter, and a speedy return to your Country. Behave yourselves as you did at Friedlaud, at Austerlilz, at YVitepsk, at Smolensk : and that the latest posterity may speak of your conduct this day with pride— that it may say of you, ' He was at that great battle under the walls of . Moscow.* " At Ibe Imperial camp 011 the heights of lSorudino, Sept. 7, 2 o'clock a. tn." The army answered with reiterated acclamations. The ground on which the army stood was spread with the dead bodies of the Russians killed the pre- ceding day. Prince Poniatowsky, who was ori the right, put himself in motion to turn the forest on which the enemy rested his left. The Prince , of Eckniuhl marched on the skirt tif the forest, the division Corn- pans at the head. Two batteries of () 0 cannon each, commanding the enemy's position, had been Con- structed in ti e night. At six o'. lock General Count Sorbier, who had armed the battery on the right with the artilb ry of the reserve of the guard, commenced the tire.— General Pernettv, with thirty pieces of cannon, put hiin^ e'. f at the head of the division Compans ( 4'. h of tile 1st corps), who skirted the wood, turning the head of the enemy's position. At half- past six General Compans was wounded ; at seven the Prince of Rckm'ulil had his horse killed. The attack ad- vanced: ihe musketry commenced. The Vice- roy, who formed our left, attacks and carries the village of Borodino, which the enemy could not de- fend ; that village being on the left bank of the Kologha. At seven the Marshal Duke of E'chiti- gen put himself in motion, and under the protection 1 f 60 pieces of cannon which General Foucher had placed the evening before against the enemy's centre, bore upon the centre. A thousand pieces of cannon spread dealh on all sides. At eight o'clock the positions of the enemy were carried, his redoubts taken, and our artillery crown- ed his heights. The advantage of position which theenemj's batteries had enjoyed for two hours, now belonged to us. The parapets which had been occupied againstu* during the attack, were now to our advantage. The enetny saw the battle lost, which he thought had only commenced. A part of his artillery was taken; the re^ t was withdrawn to his lines in the rear. In lliis extremity he at- tempted to restore the combat, and to attack with all his masses those strong positions which he was unable to pro'ect. Three hundred pieces of French cannon placed, .00 these heights, thundered upon his masses, and his soldiers died at the foot of those parapets which they had raised with so nitt. h labour, and as a protecting o:; ellet". The King of Naples, with the cavalry, made va- rious charges. The Dake of Eichingen eove. ed himself with glory, and displayed as much intrepi- dity as coolness. The Emperor ordered a charge of the front, the ri^ lu in advance; this movement made us m isters of three parts of the field of battle. Prince Poniatoatky Lught in the wood with various success. There still remained to the enemy his redoubts to tlie right. General Count Mo rand marched thither, and carried them; but at nitie in the morning, attacked oil all sides, he could not main- tain himself there. The- euemy,' encouraged by this advantage, made his reserve and his last troops adiance to try his fortune again. The Imperial Guards formed a part of them. He attacked our centre, which formed the pivot to our tight. For a moment it was feared that he might carry the vil- lage which was burnt; the division Friant advanced thither: SO pieces of French cannon immediately arrest, and then annihilate the enemy's columns, which stood for two hours in close order, under the chain- shot, not daring to advance, unwilling to retire, and renouncing the hope of victory.— The King of Naples decided their uncertainty,— He caused the 4th corps of cavalry to make a charge, who penetrated through the breaches which our cannon- shot had made in the condensed masses of the Russians, and ihe squadrons of their cuiras- siers; they dispersed 011 all sides. The General of Divis ton Count Cauluincourt, Governor ofthe Emr peror's Piges, advanced at the head of the 5th regi- ment of Cuirassier.', overthrew every thing, and en- tered the redoubt oh the left by its gorge. From this moment there was no longer any uncertainty. The battle was gained. He turned upon the enemy the al pieces of cannon which were found in the redoubt. Count Cstulaincourt, who had distin- guished himself i. 11 this line charge, has terminated his career. He fell dead, struck " by a bullet— a glorious death, and worthy to be envied. It was now two i « the afternoon ; the enemy had lost a'l hope ; the battle was ended, the cannonade still continued ; the enetay fought for retreat and safety, but no longer for victory. The less of the enemy i6 enormous; from 12 to 13,009 men, SF. d from a to 9,000 Russian horses, have been cots: t-: d oil the field of battle: 00 pieces of cannon ami 5,000 prisoners haye remained in our power. V.' e have W! 2,500 { tilled, and thrice that num- ber wounded, Our total lo> s may be estimated at 10,000 men ; that of the enemy at from 40 to 50,000. Never was there seen sach a field of battle. Out of six dead bodies, there were five Russians for one Frenchman. Forty Russian Generals were killed, wounded, or taken. Gen. Begration was wounded. We have lost the General of Division Montbrun, killed by a cannon- ball ; General Count Caulain- court, who was sent to occupy his place, was kill- ed by a shot of the same kind, an hour afterwards. The Generals of brigade Compere, Plauzonne, Marion, and Huart, were killed ; seven or eight Generals were wounded, the most of them slightly. The Prince of Eckmuhl has received no ii jttry. The French troops covered themselves with glory, and displayed their great supeiiority to the Russian troops. Such, in a few words, is a sketch of the battle of Moskwa, fought a few leagues in the rear of Mo- j'tisk, and 25 leagues from Moscow, near the little river Moskwa. We fired 60,000 cannon- shot, which are already replaced by the arrival of 800 artillery- catt6, whifch passed Smolensk previous to the battle. All the woods and villages from the field of battle to this place are covered with dead and wounded. We have found here 2,( 100 killed or amputated Russians. A number of Generals and CJolonels are prisoners. The Emperor was Titver exposed ; neither the foot nor horse- guards were engaged, or lost a single mail. The victory was never uncertain. Had the enemy, when driven fiom his entrenchments, not endea- voured to retake them, cu. Toss would have been greater than his ; but he destroyed his army by keeping it, from eight o'clock till two, under the fire of our batteries, and in obstinately attempting to regain that which was lost. This was the cause of his immense loss. Every one distinguished himself. The King of Naples and the Duke of Eichingen were peculiarly conspicuous. The artillery, and partii ularlv that of the guards, surpassed i'self. The actions which have tendered this day illustrious shall be nude known iu detailed reports. " Monsieur Bishop of , the passage of the Niemen, of ihe Dwina, the Borysthenes, the com- bats of Mohilow, of the Dr'ssJ, of Polotsk, of O « trovuo, of Smolensk, and, in tine, the battle yf Moskwa, furnish so many resjtectite reasons for ad- dressing thanks to the God of armies; our will therefote is, that on receiving this present letter, you concert measures with those to whom it of right belongs.

The 12th division, forming pari of the 7'! l corps, composed of the infantry regiments ol Smo- lensk, Narva, Alexopoi, and New I igrta, as well as of the 6th and 41 it regiments of foot chasseurs, and commanded by Major- Gem ral Pali'zin, who had succeeded Genersl Kitlbikin, wounded at Mo'nilow, " received its recruits, wliiih were drawn from depot", and brought up by Miloradowitz 011 j " Jto tllf plans the 3i instant, in consequence of which tlie regi- ments of infantry were raised to 800 each, and the chasseur regiments to 1,200, which makes ihe strength of this division to have amounted, before the battle, to 4,800 men, exclusive of two compa- nies of artillery, with ' 24 pieces of cannon, from Q tq 12 pounders. On the day of tile battle of the 7th of September, this division was stationed in the centre of ilie fir.- t liti*". About two in the afternoon it alteady sus- tained great losses, and was in want of ammunition. A Lieutenant of the regiment nT Alexopoi, natiud Peter Voronio, who, having been sent to the re- serve to demand more, lost his way among the brush- wood, and was taken after the retreat of the army, declares, that General R » je » sky, command- ing the corps d'arniKe, received a severe contusion, whicl ob'iged hirn to quit the field of battle, and that tlie General in Chief Prince Bagration was wounded. All the prisoners of this division agree in Stating that it lost more than half of its number ; that its 1 onfusion was complete at the lime of its retreat; arid that it owed its safety sok- ly to Pla- tow and Uvaroff, who covered it. Those of the 41st chasseurs say, that there scarcely remained 50 men lo each company. 2' t. The 1st division of grenadiers, consisting of the grenadiers of tile body- guard, of St. Peters- burgh, Ekaterinoslav, Taurtda, Pawlowski, and Araksche? eff, commanded by Count ! Strogbni, ff, and forming part of the 3d corps d'nrwiie, was on the extremity of the left, in the rear of ihe battery, where it suffered considerably by the fire of the ar- tillery ; it was flanked by two squadrons of cuiras- siers, which equally suffered without beicg hronght into action. The respective strength of th- se gre- nadier regiments amounted, before the battle, to from 8 to 900 men. Their loss is estimated at one third, which they ascribe to the cowardice of the officers, who abaii. doned their ranks, and concealed themselves in the brush- wood, Two regiments of chasseurs attached to this di- vision, which were stationed in advance, were dis- persed ; their loss is unknown, A suldier, named Gregoriot de Pskow, who has served for nine years in the regiment of St. Peters- bnrgh, declares that he never saw his regiment give way as it did on this occasion.

LONDON, SATURDAY', OCTOBER 3. THE EIGHTEENTH BULLETIN. We have received the Paris Papers of the 26' h last, contain rig ti e E ghteenth Bulletin of the French Army.— Hard must be the heart of the man who reads it without horror. What a fright* ful spectacle must that field present, which wns covered with fifty thousand men, dead, dyin » , or languishing with wounds ! and yet the destroyer of mankind.— the enemy of human nature— ibe author of all this mass of suffering— of all this wreck and ruin— as if to inflame our indignation, and excite disgust equal to our horror, with unpa- ralleled selfishness boasts, that during this whole work of death he never txpo « ed his own person. This bloody narrative is dated Mojaisk, the 10th of September, on which day BONAPARTE had his hea<'- qunters in that city ; and the dreadful battle of the 7th, which it details, was fought, not at Borodino, as previous report stattd, but at a lit le village called Moskwa, between Gshat and Mojaisk.— BONAPARTEI fiving reconnoitred the positions of the Russian army ou the oth, commenced his attack at six o'clotk in the morning of the 7th— having pre- viously published an address to his troops, remind ifheaV of their former exploit*, with an assurance that vie ory would give them plenty, good quarters £ or the winter, and a speedy return home— thus anticipating the possession of Moscow, ard his ability to dictate terms of peace. The two ar. Itiif* are stilted to be nearly equal, being about 150,000 each. In two hours the positions of the Russians were carried, their redoulits taken, find the French artillery, which appears to have beer- immense, placed on their heights. Two hours \ appears to have been sufficient for this great result, ; and had the day closed here, it is confessed the loss Of the French would have exceeded that of the Russians. But the latter, undismayed by the loss of their batteries, renewed the fight by attempting : to recover them, and in this attempt they displayed - a degree of passive valour, almost unprecedented, but which, lit the same time, exposed them to immense loss.— For two hours they stood in close order, presenting their solid masses to the showers of chain shot, until Marshal NEY, penetrating through the breathes thus made, dispersed them on all sides, and the battle ended at two o'clock.— The total loss of the Russians is stated at up- wards of 40,000, and that of the French at 10,000 * nen, but the former is probably exaggerated, » nd, in the general manner in which it is given, Cannot be considered a correct account. It is also clear, that the result was not so decisive as the Bul- letin would insinuate. It i « an account of a beaten • tiny, but we find no proofs of a routed anil dis- peie^ d army. There is not on? word of a pursuit, or > f the numbers taken in the pursuit.— In ad- dition to > lie Bulletin, is also an Official Report of an Officer, specially charged for the purpose, of the several positions and losses of the different di- visions of the Russian arnry on the fatal day of ft] o- kwa. By a priva'e letter, dated oh the 27th ult. from P- iris, which we have likewise Been, telegraphic dispatches are said to have reached that capital, an- nouncing the arrival of the French at Moscow; We fear this intelligence may coincide with fact. It is further stated, that the Russians- had lost 80.000 tnen in the battles which preceded the occupation of that city : if so, there must have been other engag « lnenta- after that of MosktVa ; and lastly, it { s added, " we shall soon hare peace with the Rus- sians." i There is an article in the French Pap'rs, affect- ing to be dated from Perpignan, bat written under official direction at Paris, which boasts of the con- centratimi of the forces under Sou I T and SUCHET, and of the consequent confusion produced in our operations by their union. This account is evident- ly too true. It is said that Biron D'Etio t. tss, and the Chief of General LacV's Staff, together w. iIi several of the Leaders in CutitlimiV, went on board the Ilriiish flee', wh' tt it was off tlieir coast, and returned with theide » that an arrangement lor landing ainohjj tber « hud been settle< t and arranged, when they had the mortification to see our fleet set fail and leave theru for Ali'ant,, where General MAITJ.

We have been favoured with the following copy of a letter received in town yesterday, addressed 10 J. Orde Lees, E^ q. by Mr. Armstrong, of Drog- heda, late Deputy Postmaster, communicating the particulars of this most daring outrage. Tiiis is the third s- milar instance, within the last five months, of the audacious spirit of the banditti, who invest this road ; and we sincerely trnst, that retribute jus'ice will soon be enabled to inflict ex- emplary punishment upon these desperate offen- ders', as the death of one of them is likely to lead to the apprehension of the others: " sept. 27, 18is. " SIR— 1 am sorry to inform you, t that the Deny Up- Coacli was rubbed to night, about live mdes from Drogheda, by a gang of at least twelve in number, who took the entire Mail. The guard and coachmarf behaved in the most reso- lute and gallant manner, find never surrendered until over- powered by numbers. Jemison and the coachman are badly wounded, and 1 fear they will not survive; they are now at j Drogheda, where every care is taken of them. Before Je- | ruison was wounded, he shot one of the robbers dead, and he 1? now in this town to be owaed. ' Upon hearing of the ! transaction, 1 immediately repaired to the spot, and suc- ceeded in recovering the Bailybeg anil Castleblairey hags, ! which 1 send by the bearer, aud ! hope to recover much more ; yfthe public property, as ( have now abnut forty moo search- | hig every ditch of the district in which the robbers went off. j Should I further succeed, 1 will forward you whatever part i of the Mail 1 may recover by express. j " 1 beg you muy excuse this scrawl, as I have written it after been completely drenched with rain, and much fati- gued from being out all night. " JOHN ARMSTRONG." In addition to the above, we have to inform our readers, that another of the robbers is taken pri- soner, and that he, with his dead associate, is now at Bilbriggan. Another of the gang was wounded, but has for the present escaped. These circum- stances render the detection and apprehension of the rest of thuse villains nearly certain. The event, although sanguinary, tends, and will, we trust, be effectual, towards dissolving those lawless bands of depredators, which are such a disgrace to the cha- racter of the country.

PEDESTRIANISM.— The match betwixt Carter, the Lancashire pugilist, and time, which had ex- cited much curiosity, was decided yesterday on Sou- bury Common, the favourite spot for such sports, agreeable to announcement. The match was to perform two miles in ten minutes and a half, a task which no runiier in England could perform with- out training, as was Carter's case. He started at half- past two, and did the first unler five minutes and a half, when he mended his pace at the rate of winning. He became much distressed in perform- ing the second quarter of the second mile, but his game recovered him, and he ran HI with better speed than before had attended him. He however lost the match by 52 seconds.— Carter has made a distinguished figure in the two first gymnastic sports, and lie will perform either, or boih, with any man in England^ for any sum, as observed by him on the ground.

CITY ELECTIONS. SIR WILLIAM CUKTIS'S MEETING. The Friends of this Gentleman assembled yes- terday at the City of London Tavern, to concert measures to insure his return as one of the Repre- sentatives of the City of London, in die ensuing Parliament. Mr." GEORGE WOOD having b<- en called to the Chair, and h » vingstated the object of the Meeting, Mr. HOWCUOFT, after adverting to the well- known loyalty, integrity of conduct, and patriotic seal of the Worthy Alderman, moved three reso- lutions, expressive of the high sense entertained of his past actions, and pledging the Meeting to exert every nerve to obtain his election for the sixth time, to rtpresent his fellow- citizens in Parliament; which were all unanimously carried, amidst loud and reiterated shouts of applause. Sir WM. CURTIS was TH^ N called from an ad- ' joining room, arid on his entrance amongst the as- sembly, was greeted with rapturous expressions of satisfaction. The CHtlilM AN having communicated to him the Resolutions which| iad been passed, he addressed the Meeting in a short speech, in the course of which he said he felt himself at a loss for lords' Fulfi. ieuily forcible to express the high sense of the honour that had been done him. After so long a servitude in Parliament as he had perforate 1, no- thing cou'ld give him more delight than to find, that, so far was he from having lost his antient friends, he hid gained an accession of strength, which would, in all probability, for the'sixth time, crown his hopes with the accomplishment of that ob- ject, which he considered the highest pride of his life, namely, the honour of representing the City of London in Parliament. That he had performed his duty to th « wishes ofhis Constituents their pre- sent Z; E>! fully proved, and that he should continue to perform ittill his physical functions were totally gone, he begged leave most sincerely to assure them.—( Loud applause. J The Thanks of the Meeting were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting adjourned. MEETING OF SIR J AMETSHAW'S . FRIENDS. d d not use tbe powers then intrusted to them, to elect tnore worthy Representatives." In his opinion, however, that imaginary degradation of the City of London could only take place, in case such men as htld that language were returned to represent that City in Parliament. But to avoid that mis- fortune, it was necessary; to counteract their mis- chievous activity by spontaneous efforts. Had the same exertions being used in the yeaily election, he was convinced that those men would have been rejected with disdain even from the Common Coun- cil—[ Applause. J Aldeitaan ANNESLEY shortly addressed the meeting to the same effect, and recommended the gentlemen present to canvass in their neighbour- hood, as it was impossible Sir James Shaw, from the shortness of the time, could personally wait on the electors. Sir JAMES SHAW returned thanks in » very neat speech, for the high honour so respectable a meet- ing had conferred upon him by their resolutions. He would make no professions, he had seen so ma- ny public men attempting to swell themselves into importance by professions they never intended to fulfil, and in fact never- did. Herniated that his past conduct would be a better pledge of tbe fu- ture than any profession he cnuld make—( Ap- plause.)— It. would be improper, indiscreet, and ungrateful in him to trespass longer on their va- luable time. He had only to assure them, that, as lung as his heart should beat, it should be animated by tiie liveliest gratitude for their highly flattering marks of friendship. The thanks of the meeting were then voted to Alderman Bridges, and the company dispersed. MEETING OF ALDEKMAJTWOOD'S FRIENDS. A very numerous and respectable Meeting of the Independent Liverym n, Electors of the City of London, in the in . rest of Mr. Alderman Wood, a- seinbltd, yesterday, at the Paul's Head, Cateaton- street, A little after one o'clock Mr. Alderman GOOD- BUHE& B was called ' o the Chair, who immediately proceeded to addres- tile Company on the object for which they b » d be<- n convened. He observed, couJd not withhold their applause. No part of that conduct was dictated by a wish to partake of the public money in any way whatever. As t- u the extent to which his political principles were car- ried, there might be some variation of opinion. He himself differed from his worthy Friend tin some points. But they must all perceive, that the anxi- ous desire of benefiting his country, was the main qualification in a Representa ive which ought to be scrutinized at this momentous period— and that qualification Alderman Wocd possessed in a very high degree. He ( Mr. Hey gate} had always acted with those persons, and on those principles, that were termed Whirr. He had found among them nothing to be ashamed of. Their principles were those on which the Constitution was founded — which^ gave them the Revolution of 1688— arid continued ' o preserve their liberties. But there were those who had, of late, calumniated th principles, and represented them as deficien vigour and effect. He would not dispute the point with them— they might adhere to their principles \ moment, — he would continue to hold his. The conduct of the worthy Alderman, amply convinced every person acquainted with it, that he possessed, in a very h> gh degree tint quality which was most valuable in a Representative— public inr tegrtty. He would next advert to him as a Magi- strate of the City of London : in which situation his conduct was inaiked by firnnnes, lenity, bene- volence, and humanity. He had never shrunk from his duty— he was always at hit post— the bu- siness of the Corporation was attended to by him with a constancy of application almost unparalleled. The worthy Alderman was not unknown lo those whom he ( Mr. Heysjate) addressed. He had filled some of the first, situations which the Livery could bestow. He had filled that im- portant office^ which he ( Mr. Hey gale) had just quitted ; and he would ask whether he had not supported it with all the activity, affability, and hospitality which should give dignity and lustre to the situation. In studying tbe convenience and comfort of this great city, no Member of the Corporation had exerted himself more, be might almost say, so much, as Alderman Wood. He I ad that it was altogelh r unnecessary for him to state, i been at the bead of almost all the Committees of Yesterday a most respectable and most nume- rous Meeting of Sir James Shaw's Friends took place at ( he Oid London Tavern, Bishopsgate- street, to consider the propriety " f, und the best means of returning ihe Worthy Baronet to serve again in Parliament for the City of London. " On the proposition of Mr. S. Dixon, Alderman BUIOGES NUK unanimously called to the Chair, Mr. OJXON began by apologizing to the meeting for his late attendance; ha assured them, however, that this delay had solely been occasioned by his attending on most imperious duty. He opened the Business of the Meeting by observing, that they were once more on the point of exercising one of the most invaluable privileges secured to thrai by the Constitution, that of naming Representatives to Berve in Parliament, At times like the present, it was highly necessary that such men only should be returned to serve in Parliament as had proved, fey their conduct, their attachment to their King, iheir respect for the Constitution, and their zeal to maintain and 10 defend the real privileges of their fellow- citizens— Sir James Shaw was that man. It was almost equally necessary that the City of Lon- don, who owed its greatness and i; 3 proud pre- emi- nence to commerce— whose merchants were re- spected all Over the world for their honour, wealth, and integrity— it was necessary that such city should be represented by a man wgll acquaint.? J with commercial affairs ; and again Sir J. Shaw was that man. He had acquired a fortune by persevering and enlightened industry in trade, accompanied by the most rigid integrity. ( Applause. J Hehadalways lived within its means, i-. nd never attempted to carry on a delusory trade, by means of fictitious credit, above his capital. In the other situations which he had filled, his conduct h id been equally merito- rious. He, Mr. D. had seen him fill the various high anil important places of the Corporation, and lie could say, from personal observation, that 00 man ever filled the. duties of those important sta- tions with more assiduity, more integrity, and more impartiality. But he trusted that the truth of this statement, as well as of the former, was as well known to many of his friends round him as to him- self. As a Member of Parliament, the conduct of Sir James Shaw was not, perhaps, so well known, because he did not generally take a leading part in political discussions j but it was well known, that, on all questions affecting the commercial interests either of the City of London or of other Corporate B dies, or even of individuals, Sir Junes Shaw was always in close attendance, both in the House and on the Comm. ttees; and another circumstance, perhaps more unusual, Sir James Shaw was always accessible on business of that description. From all those considerations, he trusted that this highly re- spectable Meeting would be of opinion with him, that Sir James Shaw was a fit person to be returned to serve again in Parliament for the C'itv of Lon- don— f Loud applavscsj.— Had he not even those ^ oinent qualifications winch he had enumerated, • till he thought that a Meeting like the present should give him their support, in order to keep out men of a very different description, men who had attacked the person of the Sovereign, and vilified, as much as lay in their power, both the Constitution and the different Authorities of the Realm. Should » uch men once obtain tli£ power of doing the mis- chief they intended, by being- returned to Parlia- ment, then indeed he would despair of the safety of the country. Mr. DIXON concluded by proposing three reso- lutions ( J'er ic/ tich see Advertisement in this paper), and which were grounded on his speech. The Resolutions being seconded, were put from the Chair, and carried unanimously. Alderman BRIDGES took that opportunity of re- commending to the Gentlemen present a personal canvass, and attendance at the Livery Wall on Mon- day morning, in order to procure as great a shew of hands as possible. Mr. MAUTIN' ( of the firm Smith and Martin, America- square), complimented Mr. Dixon on the Iti niiner in which he had opened the business of the Meeting. It was usual, he observed, for Candi- dates to state t < ir political opinions; and those of th - opposite party, according to that custom, had declared " lhat they considered the City of London » (. degraded by tUeir present representation, and twat it would deserve to be tor ever despissd-, if they at any great lengt i, the purpose of the Meeting, which, he was confident, they were all acquainted with— and he was no less convinced that they had all come there so uu mimoua in sentiment, that there could be no need for an indivi SUHI like him to advance many arguments, to constrain them to ado; jt those resolu 101 s which would be laid before tbera. It might strike some men, tnat they were assembled merely to serve ihe object of Alderman Wood; for his part he thought diiferently; They were met to transact business in the highest degre e important io themselves; to oi tain, if they could, by theii exertions, a fit and proper Representative in the Commons'' House of Parliament,- Consider- ing the business in this light, they must feel in- debted to any Gentleman who would come forward, determined honestly and uprightly to perform those duties which his situation might call- on him to ex- ecute. They all knew sufficienty how to appreci- ate the virtues and abilities of Alderman Wood, by the experience of his past conduct; and, he hoped, that tbe effect of their exertions in his be- half, on this momentous occasion, would secure to them at least cue Member of the House of Com- mons, who would support the rights and privileges of the Corporation of London, and not suffer them to be despised and degraded as they had been. It was a proud thi > g, amidst the innovations which had been made on their constitutional rights, amidst the inroads which had been made on their properties, that they could still meet to- gether, and shew to those who had assumed a power and a consequence over their rights and in- dependence, tha: iney were enabled to exercise, that day, ihe fist principle of the Constitution, through which all the higher authorities derived their power. The Administration were not made to control and trample 011 the people— but the people were formed lo constitute, to raise, to mould the Government. If there were no people, there could be no King. The people constituted the strength of the nation, and no power existed which did not emanate from them. It was their bounden duty, when they beheld their rights and privileges impaired, to apply a correcting hand to the evd. The present was an excellent opportu- nity to send into Parliament a man, who would not surrender those rights and privileges, to support and maintain which should be the peculiar care of every representative of the people. The Resolu- tions which would be proposed, he was well per- suaded, were of a cast which would insure the con- currence of the Gentlemen present. They were drawn up by persons perftctly competent to the task, and spoke tbe determination of freemen to uphold their rights, and to endeavour to get rid of that powerful aristocracy in the City, which, on every occasion, joined with the Administration, and overwhelmed the best interests of the independent Citizens.- He hoped they would act with that spirit and decision which would shew their adver- saries their strength, and the importance of the pr'uu- iples they suppprted. If they rightly estimated those principles, they ought not to oppose them ; but, if they did, be hoped their opposition would not he successful. Alderman HEYGATE said, it would not be ne- cessary far iiim to occupy much of their time, in moving the Resolutions; the object of which was, to place Alderman Wood in the distingwished situ- ation of Member of Parliament for the City of Lon- don. It would not be denied, that a Parliament, constituted of pevsonsof tried worth and integrity was at all times eminently necessary for the safety of this country. And, if ever there was a crisis when such a Parliament was more imperatively called for, the present was that crisis. For, how- ever they might differ upon certain political sub- jects, and, perhaps, that very difference of opinion was beneficial to the empire, all persons must agree in this point, that the country was in a situation of unexampled- difficulty and danger. The Livery of London, at this interesting moment, were called on to perform an important duty, that of electing Members to represent them in Parliament. It was necessary for them to look around for a person of integrity and ability, possessing a competent for- tune, and whose private \ irtues would enable him to fill the situation . of a representative, without de- grading the choice of his constituents. In Alder- man Wood they had found such a character. If they coatemplated lii- s public conduct, they I the Corporation, constantly attentive to the improve ment of the City, and the removal of nui. ances. There was one thing which he had laboured to pro- mote, and which, but for his exertions, probably would not have been carried into effect, lie meant the building of a new prison—- to lighten the suffer- ings of those whose crimes rendered confinement necessary— or whose pecuniary necessities placed them in that unhappy situation. This act alone ought to insure him the support and protection of the great body of his fellow- citizens, in conferring on him any maik of their approbation which it was fairly in their power to bestow. The nor. thy Alderman had been calumniated in venal prints, . is an enemy to the Constitution— but he would be bound to Bay, that 110 man was more firmly attached to the Constitution than he was. He had proved it on many occasions— but it ought to be recollected, 1 hat devotion to the Con- stitution was not to be shewn by sycophancy. In a time of great public danger, he exerted hiir. sell to embody his fellow- citizens in arms— amongst • hem he performed the duties of an active ofiieer— and remained with the corps till circumstanci s ren- dered their existence no burger necessary, In his private character, he could speak of Alderman Wood as a man fulfilling with scrupulous exact- ness ali his moral and social duties. If, then, pri- vate worth produced public virtue, and lhat it did ail history informed thein, was he riot a fit object for their choice, who conducted himself in so ex- emplary a manner ? He knpw those lie was ad- dressing too well to believe that they woyld give the woitHy Alderman a mere nominal support.— No man, he was sure, would leave that meeting, without carrying with him a full determination, steadily, heartily, and effectually, ta promote the object of it. He would not detain them longer, but proceed to move the Resolutions, which were drawn up in such a manner as would best support the comm in cause they had in view, without pledging Gentlemen to a greater extent of poli- tical feeling than they might think proper. Mr. Heygate then proposed the first Resolution.—( for which see Advertisement. J — It was seconded by Air. YAI. LOVVI. Y, and carried unanimously. The 2d and 3d Resolutions were also carried una- nimously.— Mr. PUI. LKN, in a short speech, se- conded the latter. In seconding the fourth Resolution, Mr. QuiN observed, that, after the energetic manner in which the private and public virtues of the Worthy Alder- man had b en panegyrized, it would ill become him to waste, in eulogising the excellent virtues which embellished bis character, that time which ought to be devoted to action. But, in seconding the Resolution, he could not help making a few ob- servations, not certainly with any angry feeling, on part of what had fallen from the Worthy Alder- man who had rteently addressed them. He had observed, lhat between his sentiments and those of Alderman Wood, some traits of difference existed, as to the constitution of general politics. With all the knowledge he possessed of the principles which actuated Mr. Aldeim m Wood, and the constitu- tional feelings which swayed the proposer of the Resolutions, he was at a loss lo discover where this difference was to be found. He knew Alderman Heygate to be friendly to the principles of ihe Con- stitution, as sinetioned and ratified at the glorious Revolution of 16S8. He would not attempt 10 search out the prints on which he differed from Alderman Wood, but he would mention one or two on which he was confident he could not hold a dis- similarity of opinion. The first of these was the grand object of their wishes, tbe great benefit which they struggled to procure— a substantial and radical reform in Parliament. If the taxes were severe, grinding, and oppressive, to what were they to attribute it, but to the corrupt state of the Re- presentation ? 11 Hac fonte derivata clades, 11 I11 patriam populumque flaxit." It was from that source all their calamities flowed — to that source all their misfortunes might be traced. On that point there could be but one opi- nion. Nor did he think they would disagree on the necessity of preventing ihe waste of British blood and treasure, on continental objects. Nei- ther would they countenance a strngg'e, at the ex- peuse of the people of this country, tor the posses- sion of electoral dominions; There was another point on which, he felt confident, no difference eir- is 1 ed in the sentiments of the two W. ntiiy Aider- men— That was in a declared opinio!: of the i lega- lity of that monstrous power. issuined by tbe House of Commons— by which they arn g tud to them- selves, in a case of breach of piiviie. je, the united characters of accuser, judge, ai d j . ry. The Resolution was then agreed to unanimously. Mr. Deputy KING, after a short prefatory ad- dress, moved the Filth Resolution*: w hich was car- ried una voce. Mr. Alderman WOOD returned thanks in a speech of considerable length. He expressed the great satisfaction he felt at the handsome manner in which the Resolutions had been ' introduced, and the flattering terms in which his conduct hud been spoken i f. To say one word on the sn ject > f Irs public character would be quite u-. eltss; for ha . hose | believed it was sufficiently known . to every Gentle- t in 1 man in the company. He had bten for ten yeais a Member of the Corporation ; and never, for cue hesitated in declaring his sentiments. When he first joined the Corporation, he was A in a situation which obliged him, annually, to return to his Constituents. This he was always happy to do, for he considered the constant re- currence of a Representative to tfio- e who had elected him, as worthy to be introduced into any Constitution This, perhaps, was one. of the points on which his Wcrthy Friend ( Mr. Hcy- gate) differed from him. But be declared, aud it was right he should do so, tnat if the question of Parliamentary Rtform were brought forward, he would boldly avow his opinion, that tbe Repre- sentative should every year appeal to his Consti- tuents. When he,, on former occasions, made ti ts annual appeal, bis Cons'ituents approved of bis conduct. Tliey introduced him to the Corporatiou by a large majority of votes; and they also placed him' in the situation of a Magistrate, wit: nut his personal interference, nt a time when he was six or 700 miles distant, in the South of Ireland. Should he not be so fortunate as to succeed in his present object, he would still remain tie. guardian of their lights, wherever he>! « ad an oppoi- tunity, in the Common Council. He stood so well, however, with many person s wha had the inU re- l of the country at heart, that lie considered his piesent prospect as extremely favourable ; and, should he be sent into Parliament, It-* would ever be found at his post, upholding the lights of tbe City of London, contending for the privileges of the Constitution— and opposing corruption, w erever it appeared-— although he should only be tbe seconder of a mo- tion, or even stand alone in a minority. No fears for the sjfety of bis person or his property sho'iltl ever induce him to swerve from bis duty — let the threats from any Administration be what they might, he would invariably act" on ihos? principles— 4 friend to Paili'ainentaty Reform— a friend to Free dom— a friend to that Civii and Religions Liberty, wlffch every man should enjoy; without which, no man could feel secure. A11J shoul I an opportunity offer of procuring ( be bitting- of peace for tins distracted country, he would be fotfnd a strenuous advocate for it. The worthy Alderman then aj. « i logis. d for not having made a per, onal canvass ; and concluded by observing, that <• to live in ihe esteen- j - of bis fellow- citizens was tlie greatest happiness of his life." The Thanks of the Meeting were then voted to Alderman GoodLithero, after w hich the asstao'uly broke up. MAtiK& qs, UXBKIPGK. Com- Iiispector's Return, THURSDAY, OCT. 1.
