Being seated on the Throne, the Prime Rooster delivered the following Speech to both Houses : it Ms Ler& sad Gewinsta, " It is with deep regret that I am again oblige.' to announce to you that no alteration has occurred in the state of his Majesty's lamented indisposition. 44 I continue to receive from foreign Powers the strongest assurances of their friendly.dispositimi to wards this country, and of their earnest desire to maintain the general tranquillity. “ The koswiots to which I was compelled to re sort, is 'institution of the honour of the'couhtry, *Salm% 4 cittsferafnertt of Algiers, have been at . ded. nide she most complete success. - - .e' Thospleadid achievement of his Majeure Fleet in conjunction with a squadron of the K.ing of the Ncrusakanni, under the gallant and able coaduct of Ad/nisei Viscount Exmouvn, led to the immediate and unconditional liberation of all Christian Captives then within the territory of Algiers, and to the reaun. ciatino by its Government of the practice of Christian slivery. “ I am persuaded that you will be dall sensible of the importance of an arrangement so interesting to humanity, and reflecting, from the manner in which it has been accomplished, such signal honour on the British name. • In In4ia, the refusal of the Government of Ne paul to ratify a Treaty of Peace which had been signed by, its Plenipotentiaries, occasioned a mend of military operations. .- 4 a The' ndicious arrlngsments of the Goes:Mir-. General, seconded by the bravery and persexeranee of his Majesty's torts and of those of the East India' Company, brought the campaign to a speedy and successful issue; and Peace has been filially esta blished upon the just and honourable toms of the miens' Treaty.

I observe with peculiar satisfaction the fortitude with which so many privations have been !some, and the active benevolence which has been employed to mi. tigate than, I am persuaded that the great sources of out national prosperity are essentially unimpaired, and I entertain a confident especutioa that the native energy of the country will, et no distant period, sur mount all the difficulties in which we are involved. " In considering our internal situation, you will. I doubt not, feel a just indignation at the attempu which have been made to take advantage of the dip tresses of the country for the purpose of exciting a spi rit of sedition and violence: " I &bolos well convinced of the loyalty and good seam of the great . .ody of his Majesty's subjects to be lieve them capable of bring perverted by the arts which are employed to seduce them ; but, I am deterniined to omit no precautions fur preserving the public peace, and for counteracting the designs of the disaffected; and I rely with the utmost confidence on your cordial support .end co-operation in upholding a system of law and kovernment, from which we have derived inestimable atbrantages, which has en. abled us to cod'clude with unexampled glory a con test whereon depended the best interests of mankind. and which has been hitherto felt by ourselves " it is acknowledged by other nations to be the most p*fatit that has ever fallen to the lot of any people."

On this occasion he telt it was not necessary for him to enter into any details. We could not but recol lect the events of the I= year, which were too' con siderable 1:0 - be easily firgotten. The great and im portant objects for which we had so long contended, had in !haled: just ended been brought to their eon; Summatiool ;.iod that odious mibtary despotism Which hod no long reigned paramount over nearly the wholiof tamps was now no more. It bad been succeeded by peace and order ; and under the restored reigns of the former legitimate monarchs, general tranquillity was gradually gaining ground, which there was every reason to hope would be permanent, !not merely from the sense of self interest which the people had in mintalniog it, but also from a recol 'cotton of their vete and unprecedented sufferings.; The next subject to which be should draw the atten tion of the House, as mentioned in the Prince Re gent's most gracious Spaeth, was the glorious vic tory we bad lately obtained in the Mediterranean. It was well known that for too long a time this coma try and all the rest of Europe bad suffered their flags to receive with impunity the t insults and out rages from the barbarians Algiers, and the other nests of pirates on the coast, who had to ages car ried on a regular system of slivery, till at last, as he had always thought would some day or other happen, the honour of Europe felt itself 'impli cated in the transactions, and bound. to put an end to Mein. This Government happily deemed it pro per to take the lead on the occasion, and convince the tyrant, 'that* betas= necessary to make bins feel that a conduct do mffrageons, so destructive of all the rights of humanity, could ao longer be suffered to paw unnoticed or unpunished. Well and nobly did we plan andArnish out an expedition, which the consummate skid and valour of Lord Exmouth and those under his command had brought to such a glo., rions conrissiop. besides the punishment of destroy ing his Son and batteries, a personal atonement bad been exacted ,fissoi the Dby, and a covenant bad barn entered into thm slavery should be for ever abolished. This codotry had not only been the main cause of effecting such a happy and unexpected event, but bad also beta histronsental in inspiring noe of its brave allies to take a part, nobly indeed sustained, in the warble. He knew that many people *ere of *- akin; that when a fit opportunity offered, the Day would tsar hesitant to bask through dal wattl be had sutured into; bgt the rowers who bad, through our instruntentalit adinbined to present his testes. of outrages; wail" fil's euficieot cheek to preeeek him from any Mkt bounce of aggressitins -W•th respect to die late war in India, it Aii sot consnienced till forbearance could no longer be Vas dined. It was not caused by any solitary act of dig expected (Sewage, but by a eerier of eombinationi and iistasions ; and instead tif lenity and forbearance having the desirodeiect, they seemed only to infhme the desires of the enemy, and stimulate them to new aggressions; and it WAS not till the !asset of the people, and the destruction of whole province* called aloud for nor interference, that Lord Hastings (the lEarl of *lies) could be induced to resort in arms to put an end' to the career of the marauders. He wel son the House must duly appreciate the Noble laord'e exertions, and particularly his judgment in the seleoi 'inn of that great and distinguished Officee, Sir David Ochterlony, by whose valour and ability, tianquillitY had been soon restored, and attangetisente made to secure our interests for the tutore in that pert of out' immense possessions. With respect to the declare: tion of hit Royal Higlities., that every Erfurt would he made to effect ecouomy and retreschnsent in the 'bitten% departments of the Government, lie-thenght alte House ought to return thahks to hirltoral /lei!: retitle ibis point. .It must certainly be the desire df • that Home to relieve as stau,•h - as *possible the bur. slums of the ptople, yet we must consider, that we have a Government to keep up, as a safeguard td' the Coostitution, on the peselyation of which de• pended not merely the receipt of the public revenue; hut the suzcess of thewhole trade and comnaltre. of the country. Hee therefore, trusted Ministers would do their duty in protecting the Constitution t for it had beet truly observed, that there was anithisg so lexpensieJ as weakness, and nothing so prodigal as ilaectriity. For his own part, he hid :the strengeln coofiele,ice in the wisdisai of the Hoe* and wasted they inteildieilai e ti r 'aistanee• for plaeMg tb..1114 '-naneeeuf the Cenititritll6 as broad a basis a. . be found consistentswitathe pnblicaecurity.

Was it from a deft. • ciency in only three qoarters . of a year that we were ea justified in preptieseing the coral tuin and hankreptcy of the countty ? This, ind••ed, was a glernny pro phesy that had been forced upon oar ears ; but no rational persons could despair upon such shallow and trivial gioands. But if we acted with lhe same firm ness and perseverance as we bed don; throughout the last grand contest, we shuttle risellOwoot-of Al the . • difficulties that seemand 'hex/fib at much stfeeeisiti ' we did then: ' lid feirarlOwn eae.er iatu ittejetteell hi as to the cactis. of thitfresent distiei% Omit tehtch[ . there was a elleersitf of opinions ; , but he should merely state a few of the camel which may hay...leaf to it.

To sheer . how ;neatly this stagnation must have been felt} he '...- .• need only advert to the immense etpendittne enterer- - ~ • sarily occasioned in the' last year of the war. fit' '.. '•• • did not know that lie wis exactly correct, but he thought that he might state it at 120 millions. la the following year it was only seventy minims; so that it followed that no less than between 40 and 40 millions had been withdrawn from circulation, which had been previously distributed among the industrious and labouring classes of the community, who were cons sequently left without any present means of gaining a livelihood. Another cause was the loss of that monopoly of commerce which we had possessed din ring the war in every put ot the globe ; and there. sent declining state ot capital all over Europe wet most unpropitious to its revival' . This had naturally and materially increased our distresses, and such were the most material of the causes that had occa• 'stoned them. Still there was no doubt that we should 'gradually recover from our present situation, and we 'should be him to the country and to ourselves if we omitted to reflect on the series of precedents which history furnished of similar distresses at the end of long and expensive wars, but from which we had soon happily emerged, as he trusted we should shortly do at this crisis. There was another topic which be coaled not but mention. We had all lately seen a spirit of rancour and mischief propagated amongst the people at public meetings, which could not but be infiititely dangerous. The Parliament were re presented as sanctioning oppression, and the . people were told that they had the remedy in the ir own hands for their distresses, if they would unite againtt the Representatives of the Nation: But the House would recollect that such language was the order of the day, which led to the distress and anarchy in Ire land that terminated in rebellion. He trusted, how ever, that the House would not be wanting to pre. test its privileges, and with them the Constitution ; and as they have the power in themselves; so he hoped they would have the resolution to enforce it, and defeat such odious machinations. There was one part of the distress of the country which arose from an increased demand for agricultural produce, while there was a diminished demand for agricultu ral labour. In such a ease, any loan possessed ' f capital would employ himself in finding out new sources of emplayment for the people; but if the se curity of the country were suffered to be endangered, ' ',try prudent Min would draw his capital away, and plaice it where it would have the probability of being safe. The House had, this Session, a most delicate and arduous duty to perfotth. The eyes of the whole century were fixed on them-•(fteer, her, heer,)— and Ife trusted they would lay aside all party preju dices, sad enter into a full and critical examination of the actual state of the kingdom, not only at home, but with respect to sue relations with foreign powers. Thus we should infallibly seseeed in preserving that Constitudoe which still remain unezcelled and an. WOW, the wonder sad the envy of all civilised
