Address to the King. Notice having been given that a meeting is intended to be held in the town-house in Knaresbrough, on Tuesday the 17th inst. for the purpose of addressing His Majesty on the late insult offered him, at the opening of the present session of Parliament; a wellwisher to the King and Constitution takes the liberty of recommending, on this occasion, an address, similar to the following, which was lately sent from York. Most gracious sovereign, We, the Mayor and Commonalty of the City of York, in Common Council assembled, think it incumbent on us to express our abhorrence of the late very alarming Attack made upon your Majesty's person; an Attack which must have occasioned the greatest concern in the breast of every true Friend to your Majesty and the Constitution.
