General in Council 'against the Pindarries were dic tated by the strictest Principles of Self .defence ; and that in the extended hostilities which followed upon those Operations, the Mahrattah Princes were in every instance the aggressors. " Under the provident and skilful superintendance of the Marquis of HASTINGS, the campaign was marked in every respect by brilliant achievements and successes; and his Majesty's Forces, and those of the East-India Company (Native as well as European) rivalled each other in sustaining the reputation of the British Arms. " The PRISCE REGENT has the greatest pleasure ix . being able to inform you, that the trade, commerce, and manufactures of the country are in a most flou .rishing condition. The favourable change which has so rapidly' taken place in the internal circumstances of the United Kingdom, affords the strongest proof of the solidity of its resources. " To tultivat e and improve the advantages of our pre sent situation will be the object of your deliberations ; and his Royal Highness has commanded us to assure you of his disposition to concur and co-operate in whatever may be best calculated to secure to his Majesty's subjects • the full benefits of that state of peace which, by the blessing of Paovint:sce, has befit so happily re-established - throughout Europe." After the delivery of the Speech, the Commons withdrew to their own House, and an adjournment, during pleasure, of their Lordships, was ordered. About five o'clock the House resumed. Preparatory to their Lordships' consideration of their Address to the Prince Regent, on the occasion of his Speech to both Houses of Parliament, The LORD CHANCELLOR read that document again for the better information of their Lordships, and it was subsequently read by the Clerk at tl e table. The Earl of WARWICK theti rose to move the Address to the Prince Regent. His Lordship regretted that the task had not fallen to some Peer more compe tent than himself to do justice to. those topics to which, what he should have the honour to propose, would necessarily refer. However, he had the con solation to reflect, that is principle at least, there cnuld be no contrariety of sentiment among their Lordships in what he was about to submit for their adoption. His Lordship then touched upon the lead ing topics adverted to in the Royal Speech, as the continuance of his Majesty's lamented indisposition, and the afflicting circumstauce of the recent demise of her hot most ezcellent Majesty the Queen, which he charactOriserl as a national as well as- a personal loss, which justly called upon their Lordships fceihe expression of heartfelt regret and sincere cot : Wok:Vic* as referring to the Members of her Majesty's illuitri ous family, more especially his Royal. Highness the Princelteetent. He then viverted to the leading topics in the Royal Specch,uf a mere public and po litical nature, as the important measure of withdraw. lag the -Allied Army of Occupation from, ' , ranee—a -measure, the grounds and effect of which he consi dered to be a just cause for congratulating dm House and the country, whether it regarded eiler the state of things in the kingdom of France itself, or the lasnlels'.e objects . of the Allied Powers in pro posing a measure considerably earlier than they were called upon to do by stipulation.—(Hear.) With re spect to the state of our territories in India, he re. garded it as affording equal ground for *congratula tion. The wise measures adopted for the political concerns of that important part of the Empire, as well as for the Rigorous prosecution of defensive hos tilities dangerous and designing enemies, re ,ilected the highest credit upon those who planned as well as tho e who executed them, The Treaty con :eluded with the United Stites of America, wasslikitk o wise a well-founded matter of gratulation. as leading to arrangements advantageous to both countries, bid ding fair.still farther ..to establish tho,e relations of peace and amity which so happily subsisted. : The Noble Earl, after duly touching upon the miner tc pies referred to.in the Royal Communication, moved an Address to h:s Royal. Highness the Prince Regent, corresponding as usual with the leading points of the Speech, and condoling in appropriate terms with his Royal Highness on the severe loss experienced by the Royal Family and the Nation in the demise of her Most Excellent Majesty the Queen. Lord SALTOUN (one of the Scots Peers) seconded the motion for agreeing to the Address, and sup ported that proceeding in a brief but sensible speech. His Lordship particularly regretted the loss of her late Most Excellent Majesty as a severe national af , fliction, especially when they considered that digni fied and virtuous character which her late Majesty had uniformly upheld ; a consideration which, went in no unimportant degree, to stem or counteract that system of demoralization which in certain ra:sher countries had fur some time so unhappily prevailed, and which mightshave extended its baneful influent e to this. With the Noble Earl, who mew< d :he Ad- I dress , his Lordship cordially concurred in sentiment lon the different important topics he had touched upon. The evacuation of the French territory by the troops of the Allied Powers, at the time, and in ' the manner it was proposed, reflected the highest cre dit on those illustrious personages. In sound policy he conceived there na ,longer existed , any good ground for retaining the allied troops longer in that country ; on the contrary, he thought the measure would every way be attended- with the most benefe. cial effects. Of the late war ia India, as to its pro gress, objects, and termination, he also concurred with the Noble Mover of the Address in every view he had taken of it., as well as of the other topics ad verted to by the Noble Earl, whose motion for the Address had naturally his cordial seppert. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE observed, that he should feel a most sincere satisfaction at all times, .on such occasions as the present, in not deeming it incumbent on him to offer any observations, which may be construed as an absence pf unanimity, at the commencement of a Session ; but more especially so, in the particular instance then before their Lordships, when a great part of the proposed Address, more pointedly that which consisted in expressions of regret and condolence at a recent lamented circumstance, had his cordial approbation. It was not, however, as to what bad appeared in the important communi cation their Lordships had heard, or in that prOposed for their adoption, as in reference to certain topics which he deemed improperly omitted. In that view he felt it his duty to offer a few observations to their Lordships. As to what was said respecting a-great part of that which resulted from the recent Congress at Aix-la-Chapelle, he undoubtedly concurred. As to the degree of hope which should be entertained of the continuance of a state of peace and amity upon the Continent, he confessed he should not-then pre tend to give an opinion, as he felt he was not suffi ciently apprised as to the principles of the new ba lance of power, or of the actual relations between the different Powers now eAablished upon'the Con tinent; he was, however, willing to belieee.such re lations now existed as would lend to a rational here of its continuance. lie certainly felt much satisfac tion at the withdrawing • the Army of Oceppatien from France, as it tendeO to restore that county to a state substantially beneficial to the pest of Eutope, as he was satisfied that the restoration of France to that state of independence, which she was entitled to as a member of the great European Confederacy, would be generally beneficial ; and_ ia such a view of the amelioration of the circumstances .of that country he founded.his best hope for the.contineance of Continental pease. He coui.i not, however, dis miss the nrrangements agreed upon. at Ain-la-Chm.- pelle, without an.anxious enquiry. •as to what steps had actually been taken towards the complete Abo lition of the African Slave Trade throughout the world, and more particularly on the part of France? It was obvious that without a general and cordial co-operation of the different Powers concerted in that nefarious traffic, its real ,trmication.cculd note take place. He trusted that some.efforts were di rected by Ministers to be made on that-important opportunity towards so desirable a consurnmatiorc,..- There was another subject which had not been sum ciently taken into view—he meant the actual state of the Revenue, Commerce, and . general Financialseon cents of the Country, though ne regarded uith satire faction what had been staid upon these important topics, as far as they went. To a certain degree these were certainly impro ; but with due a;teraica . .1 t 7 i • ; .I . i . 1' • t , '" 1 ".. ; t ' 1 1 1 1 „ t i: l ' , . •I 1 i , t 1 • ~ , 1 1 ; Ili f , i I ! 1, .. f . •• li
