• „ -• -There were thee alive some of the most intelligent argon whist° oosamted with constitutional and legislative itt form..tina.--aen who had acquired their knowledie from hay loft lived is the time of the troabl,-i which arose about that pe eled, when emsitimiliiiial and legislative proceedia were an Patch the subject of discussion and of enquiry. The Pa rliament at that time determined to pat the Crown on the head of the Pelage of Gralleet but. while they did so, they went also de termined t I teltitotain tbeir sewn privileges. Before the Crown was tendered to him, therefore, they read over to him and to his with the Dream** of their Rlghte whieh they were re solved to preserve, aad ea the unpile-I assent to those Rights then come to, between the two paree.4, iieclared William and Mary K en;; and Queen. That this, then, was the opinion of the best-informed men of that time. AS to the regular aod constitutional course of proceeding could out be doubted, but • reined t. 4 follow as a matter of course. They did out think it • cemory to proceed h- means of a fiction, or rather a trend ; they dill not wish that : tee Great Seal should seem in comesuni. rate to any act of theirs the scent of another branch which was incapable of signifying any sueh assent. They thought that a Declaration expressive of the terms on which the Throve was tendered to the Princess of Orange and her husband, was etifficient to establish the Throne to them, and also to secure their own liberties to the people of this country. — 'The Right Honourable Gentleman said, the act done at the Revolasion was the making of a King, which this was not. The act done at the Revolation, then, wo a paramount act to 'that, o.µ• - proposed; yet the Right Hon. Gentleman, while be saw this superior act had been done by Address from the two Houses, chose to think, that in conveying to the Prince of ' Wales the power of administering the &airs of the country, for his fatker,he can only proceed byan act of Legislature. The snore he (Mr. Ponseohy) ban considered the proceedings in the year 1789. the more be was ustimished they could have been adopted by the two Houses of Parliament at that time. How • should. the Royal Alsent he known to have been obtained to ~ When Act ? it was required by Act of Parliament, that the Royal Assent should be signified, either by the Kin himself, In , • permit, and in fall Parliament, or by Letters Palette to Cent . snissioneet e. soder the Sign Manual of the King himself. The Act was so shiart that he should read it. It was an Act passed in the 34d year of the reign of Henry VIII. declaring that Ml' Acts which should receive the Royal Assent by letters seder tbe.Great seal, and signed with the KiWe own hand. should• be as gnod and effectual'as if the King had been personally pre sent, in full Pariiament, at the time of passing The law therefore detlares, that there are only two soda in which the Crown cm act with erred to. a legislatiye mesons, so as to give it validity. First, by being himself personally present in fell Parliament, apt there signifying his assent to it; or. secondly, by a Commission under tile Great Seal, signed with his Majesty's own hand.. Now, the question Is, is his Mae jests capable of performing either of these Acts of Assent? Ti niest be admitted that heat anfortmettely incapable of perform: log either oft hem. Was the House. then, to he called on to proceed by B 11, which it was mtpossible could ever be res.- Bered legal by receiving his hlajestea assent ? Why Were they pat upon this ',pewee and artilleial mode of proceeding, when they had is referent. and an wiesceptiouable mode point ed out to them. by observing that it had been acted on by our mieesters its the best Of times. At the period when the Act of the SSd Hem VIII. was passed, some other statutes bad also been enacted for preventing the crime of treason. To the very next year, namely, the first of Mary, these Treason Acts were res pealed but, In teat sane year. another Act was passed, making it freedom to counterfeit the Siren Manual of his Majesty, because within very Act, declaring that Cummissions for giving the Royal • Assent to all ROY which passed the two Hewes of Parliament, should be valid to that effete, if signed under the hand of his hlaiesty, with his Sign Manual. So the law was, and so it continued to this day. Nothing could be more clear than what Were the two things. some net of which was necessary to make 4 any Let of this kii4, passed by the two Houses of Porliammit suf . &tete ; nothing to., could be plainer than this, that neither of those requisites could be procured at this time. About the time of passing the Act of Henry VIII. also towards the end of that Re4o, an Act of Attainder had parsed against the Doke of efficient, which, in the beginning of the Reign of Mary wits reversed, and the reason was this, namely, that the 4trismi Assent had sever Weir given to ihat Act of Attainder. This case was referred to in one of Mr. (Misers precedents, where the ground is stated to be that the King was then in such extremity of sickens that be cnald out possibly be personally present Varliainent, whilo the Act received his Royal concurrence; that no commission for granting the Kiti,g's Assent hod been signed by his Highness's own hand ; that the Law of the Land was, and had been, that such as sent mete to be signified in his Majesty's 41%11 per sonal presence, in full Parliament, or by Letters Patent. signed wed. his hand, and that by the Common Law, etch an • net was void an c 1 dof no effect, a.. mast be deemed ;id Udall to he no Art of Parliament. Now. if there could be tidied' any nethorities oa any snbjett tante complete than those he Imd • gaoled, to thew that there were but two modes to do an act . essential to legislation in this case, and that his Majesty. could . net at present do either of these arts, he was at a lOW 1011411 r e .. ' any such. It was °helms, if this proposition of the Right lion. Gentlemen were agreed to by the House, it could be clue fidrred in the character of an Act of Parliament. It would. be a mere fiction, or what was worse, a fraud—an inipositioa on the erientry I and we n t try helpers that his Majesty had given to Y the Royal Assent, at a time a hen it was impossible that be could have given any such assent. It was a monstrous dee trine 'to maintain. that the House ought lo be called on to sup ply it deficient', , the filling op of which was to essential to the interacts of the country, cud of the King himself, by this fraud, whet there were other mikes not subject to any such abjection in which the measure might be accomplished, those. t • lon, having been acted on in the very best eriods of our histo ry. The Right Honourable Gentleman (I'ercevul) desired to know, if the : wo Houses were to vote Addresses to the Prince of Wales, these Address' s would not woofer on hint the power of discharging the fano ions of ;he Executive Government jest to he proposed that power should be ronfe if by the prole).

It was just as possible to adjust th e Zj mimeo& afterwards, when the Parliament was completn,„ , by the revival of the Royal Functions, as it could be by tae defective and unconstitutional Act, recommended by the (tight Hoe.

For instance, did they wish to swim the of hie Majesty's person, plurals his oidispoi. tattoo, to be to the Qtteen. in which he concurred with the ~ Right Honourable Gentleman, as he -believed meet ;mettle would do; was it to he conceived. or did the Right Houoisre able Gentlemen imagine that his Royal llifhiwv would deny his concurrence to such an arrangement, teen after, hy the e drew of the House, lie had been invested with the (Akio( Re ggio ?
