The CIIANCELLOR of the EXCIIFQUER said he was convin; eo, that if Parliament did not lead on this occasion, they ititt , t he con tented to follow, for the fe..liaigs of the people of this crib try seere bur , tirg out in private exertions to relieve those stiffaringa, %N , hid) every man mutt commiserate, and be desirous ot alleviating. But it become Parliament to give the tone to, and not to be led by the public. The intelligence to which he had alluded, as Ten:tering this measure more expedient, was that of a subscription having been entered into at Petershureh, at the head of which stood the Royal Family, for the relief of those who had endured the greateat hardships from tee invasion of the enemy. Till this step was takes, there were no eraetical means of administering the comtcets •which this great come ry must wish to administer, and which now became easy of applie..atian, through the mediums of the committees, established for the same purpose at St. Petersburelt. In what manner the relief should be applied, he was not at-this moment pr pared to state, as it might be desirable to have further communication with our Am bassador at Petersburgh to ascertain the mode that would be most eligible. useful, and efficacious. Till that period the sum would be propeily vested for the intended object. With regard to the amount of the st u n, he was aware that it could not be comineosurate with the extended misery to the alleviation of which it was to ha directed - (hear, hear !)—On the other hand, it would not become the liberality of this country to offer to our Allies, suffering in our cause, a s we ll as in their own, (Hear !) a penurious grant ; suffering in four cause, as well as their own, he repeated : tor the contest in which R ussia was engaged was not one merely of usefulness in the common cause, but o f peculiar de- s erving rewards • Great Britain, to the manufactures and commerce ot wlaich it offered a brighter dawn and more extensive advantages than had for several years opened in Europe. (Hear, hear !) Every day and every hour brought intelligence whidt imparted new eve'gtes to our trade ; and the loss of the American ina'ket was now li%ely, to be compensated by the opening of a greaeer matket on the Continent. The sum he had to propose was 200,0001. ; a larger amount than had ever before been voted by Parliament for a similar purpose, but which ought to be larger, because the skillet ine was more ex tensive, and the self-devotion and heroism which had marked the conduct of those for whom it was designed, unexampled in the annals of the world.—(Hear, hear !) Thousands, he feared he might say, hundred of thousands, of these gallant people were heuseless. living -in the woods, under all the rigours of a Russian winter, rather than eubmit to the domination of a foreign invader. (Hear, hear !) It was to relieve this great and complicated misery that he called upon the British Houseof Commons to step forward —to relieve entirely was indeed beyond human means, but still it was a consolation to the afflicvd to know that some hearts symeathized in their woe, and -rellreacly to administer to their wants. From the babas o f life of Russian people, this graitt would go to a greater length, and more service than might at first sight he apprehended. But even 'e if not so, the disposition to assist them alone, would, from this int rv, carry satisfaction to every heart in Russia, and tend to hint :ter toeether those relations between the countries, which, interest k s II .os nature pointed out to be advantageous to bath.—( II ear)—This tint& yaculd more than equal our liberality, ancient these grounds, h ut trespassing further upon the House, leaving the matter rather their feelings and judgment. than endeavouring to persuade to the ; he beaged leave to conclude; by moving, that it is the opinion of te Committee, with a view to afford relief to such parts of the uesian Emp - re, as have suffered most from the invasion of the enemy, oat the sum ot WO,OOOl. be granted to his Royal liieltnesa the since Regent.
