lishment--for making every practicable reduction in the public expenditure, and restoring to the people their just share and weight in the Legislature. By order of Court, HENRY WOODTHORPE. To which Address and Petition his Royal Highness was graciously pleased to return the following answer : It is with strong feelings of surprise and regret that I receive this address and petition of the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Commons of the city of London, in Common Council assembled. Deeply as I deplore the prevailing distress and difficulties of the country, derive consolation from the persuasion that the great body of his Majesty's subjects, notwithstanding the various attempts which have been made to irritate and mislead them, are well convinced that the severe trials which they sustain with such exemplary patience and fortitude are chiefly to be attributed to unavoidable causes, and I contemplate with the most cordial satisfaction the efforts of that enlightened benevolence which is so usefully and laudably exerting itself throughout the kingdom. I shall resort with the utmost confidence to the tried wisdom of Parliament at the time which upon the fullest consideration I have thought most advisable under the present circumstances of the country; and I entertain a perfect conviction that a firm and temperate administration of the government, assisted and supported by the good sense, public spirit, and loyalty of the nation, will effectually counteract those proceedings which, from whatever motives they may originate, are calculated to render temporary difficulties the means of producing permanent and irreparable calamity.
