Ana, 6z (Thlium a pr. to be mcrinced, in orderla prevent disgracefromfalling on mere who, in the first place devised a plan replete with rashness and folly, and carried into operation at a time when we were not at war with the Power against whose possessions it was dire&ed, and at a time too when the same men were a&trally nego tiating with the very Power in - question for the re moval of all grounds of national difference. But this pitiful attempt to degrade Officers whose merits are too well established to be tarnished by such , means, must recoil upon the authors. The names Of DUCKWORTH, FRAZER, and STEWART, are still as bright as ever,' and the people of this country, while they view with indignation the despicable endeavours to degrade, have only to regret that the professional talents and enterprising spirits of such gallant Officers were not employed by men, of correspondent ability, who might have furnished them with plans calculated to increase their own honor and give additional strength and glory to their country. But the writers in the service of Opposi tion are not contented with accusing the Officers concerned in the affair of the Dardanelles and the Egyptian Expedition of having shewn a miserable want of judgment in the execution of the plans en trusted to them, but of having exceeded their orders, and brought disgrace upon our arms by their own temerity and folly. It is therefore proper that the whole of these transa&ions 'should be investigated by Parliament, and every document produced that can throw a light upon the subjea. The character of British Officers ought to be exempted from such wanton attacks wheresoever they may originate, for if such men are not properly protetied, we must not expeel to see them expose themselves to immi nent hazard in the service of their country ; and the consequence may be not only a loss of national glory, but our independence as a people. EZS MAJESTY's SPEECH. THE following is a Copy of the Speech with which the Session of Parliament was opened tai afternoon, by HIS MAJESTY'S Commissioners. " My Lords and Gentlemen, "We have it in command from His MAJESTY to state to you, that having deemed it expedient 'to recur to the sense of his People, HIS MAJESTY, in conformity to his declared intention, has lost no time in causing the present Parliament to be assem bled. " His MAJESTY ha; great satisfaction in ac quainting you, that since the events which led to the Dissolution of Parliament, His MAJESTY has received, in numerous Addresses from his Subjeds, the warmest assurances of their affec tionate attachment to his Person and Government, and of their Erin resolution to support Him, in maintaining the just .Rights of his Crown, and the true Principles of the Constitution ; and He com mands us to. express his entire confidence that He shall experience in all your deliberations a deter mination to afford him an equally loyal, zealous and affeCtionate Support, under all the arduous ircum stances of the present Time. " We are commanded by His MAJEST Y to in form you, that His MAJESTY'S endeavours have been most anxiously employed for the purpose of drawing closer the ties ,by which His MAJESTY is connecAed with the Powers of the Continent; of assisting the efforts of those Powers against the ambition and oppression of France; of forming such Engagements as may ensure their continued co-operation ; and of establishing that mutual Con fidence and Concert so essential under any course of events to the Restoration of a solid and permanent Peace in Europe. ....FY TIIE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.

Dispatches were this morning received from Gem CHAUFURD and Admiral MURRAY. Admiral MUERAY, with the Transports and Troops under the command of Col. CIiAUFURD, sailed from St. Helena on the '4:6th April, all ‘vell; at which time , we are happy to state, the Island was again per fe&ly healthy. Seven China Ships, two from Bengal, some South Sea Whalers and Botany Bay Ships, were lying in that road, under the pro te&ion of the Sir Edward Hughes, in the expeOla tion of a Ship of the Line to convoy them home. The agreeable intelligence was received this morn ing at the'East India House of the safe arrival at St. Helena, homeward, of seven regular China Ships, the Botany Bay Ship William Pitt, and the extra Ships Euphrates and Sir William Bensley, from Bengal. . No further intelligence has arrived from the Con tinent. The next Mail will probably bring us in telligence of a General A.(;tion, and as General BErrNmsEti ,found himself in a condition to begin the attack, there is strong ground to hope that the result may be favourable. The Amendment which is this day to be moved to the Address is, we understand, to be confined merely to an expression of the opinion of the Opposition upon the Dissolution of Parliament. It will be moved in the House of Lords by Lord GRENVILLE, and in the House of Commons by Lord HowicK. THERE is a very striking difference between the condud of Mr. PITT and that of the late Admini stration with respect to the treatment of the Officers who have been employed in Expeditions towards which the hopes of the Cotintry have been anxious ly direded.—Whatever was the result of the Expe fditions proposed by Mr. PITT and his Colleagues, that liberal and enlightened Minister was always ready to give all possible credit to the Officers to whom they were entrusted. When any of these warlike operations were attended with peculiar suc cess, Mr. PITT was more anxious to attribute that success to the ability, zeal, and heroism with which they were carried into effea, than to bestow praise on the intrinsic merits of the plan. On the other hand, in all cases of comparative failure, he was equally ready to do justice to the Officers concern ed, and by no means to lessen the credit - of their exertions, in order to avert censure from himself.— How different has been the conduct of the late Ad miuistration with respect to .the_ Expedition to Egypt ! The merit of the plan they have trumpet- • ed forth in all the Prints devoted to their sOrvice,. and all the disastrous consequences that ensued are imputed to the misconduct of the persons who car ried it into execution. For this purpo , e the .high professional chara6ter of a DUCKWORTH, a FmtzEa, and a STEWART, all men of distinguished talents, are Yesterday the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER entertained a .great number of the Members of the. House of Commons to dinner; after dinner the Speech, which is to be this day delivered from the Throne, was read. The 'following persons were among the Company :—The Right Honourable. the SPEAKEI of the House of Commons, Lord CASTLE, REAGII, Lord NEWARK, Lord CLIVE, the Arrort- NEY-GENERA.L, the SOLICITOR-GENERAL Sits W. SCOTT, J. NICHOLS, C. M`DONALD ; Messrs. ROSE, FOSTER, RYDER, LONG, HUSKISSON, MILLS, HALL', R. S. DUNDAS, H. MuLGitAvE, and W. WILBERFORCE. The LORD CHANCELLOR, Lord MULGRAVE, and all the other Ministers, and their friends, belonging to the Upper Chamber of Parliament, dined with Lord HAWKESBURY, at his house, in Great George street, .Westminster. RAMSGATE, JUNE 23.—N0 less than thirteen transports arrived here yesterday. One of these, the Echo, Captain SEDMAN, last from the Downs, was full of German troop ; she was leaky, which was the reason of -her. corning in here. The troops have been disembarked' into the illelanto, another trans port, and are sailed again for their general rendez vous, the Downs. A small embarkation took place this day, of six companies of the 2d battalion of the Rifle Corps of the German Legion : each company consists of about 105 men ; they are embarked in the Elizabeth, Ma ria, and lictiancoransports. The men are in high spirits. An immense number of cavalry and inthntry are daily expelled here for .embarkation-- , -in all not less than 40,000 men. The cavalry is stated at f. 2,200. Three horse transports came into the harbour this afternoon. All the other transports of this descrip tion have their slings ready for embarking. The Transport Board are now , taking up, as fast as they can be cleared of their cargoes, a great part of the late homeward•bound East Country Ships, and no exertion or expence is spared in forwarding the grand objeLa in view. COL HAMILTON', of the Royal Waggon Train, is immediately' to proceed to the North, on an im portant secret mission. The Agent for Transports at Ramsgate is ordered to provide a Vessel for him and his attendants. RAMSGATE, JUNE 24.—The present is regarded as the greatest einbarkation of artillery horses and cavalry that ever took place at Ramsgate. Not less than 1200 are expeeled 'here this day. One hundred and fifty horses, seleaed from those of the Royal Artillery at Canterbury, for the use of the German foot artillery, arrived here this forenoon about eleven o'clock, and were immediately slung into the trans ports,.drawn up along the inner, the outer, and the western piers. Fifty horses from Hythe, of the same description, and for similar purposes, are expeaed to arrive here every minute. Between twelve and one o'clock a.troop of German horse artillery arrived, hav ing in their train a number of carriage guns. The horses are all in good condition, and the troopers in high spirits, were embarked with the greatest celeri ty, under the direaion of Captain THAMES and the other Gentlemen appointed to that service. Not the smallest accident, and hardly a moment's inter ruption occurred. In the afternoon two brigades of heavy German artillery also arrived ; and soon after these the 3d regiment of light dragoons of the same Nation. At present (four o'clock) these corps are drawn up on the beach and along the piers, em barking as fast as possible ; but none of the Trans ports have sailed, or can sail with this tide. The troops that have arrived this day, namely, one troop of German artillery, two brigades of heavy ditto, and the third regiment of German light dragoons, are all that are to form what is called the second gxrdition. The third Expedition, the troops for which are all at Canterbury, will consist of the 7th light dragoons, British ; the 10th ditto, the 15th ditto, two troops of British hone tad sour brigades of heavy artillery, sine British. / " It would have afforded His A.IAJESTY the greatest pleasure to have been enabled to inform you, that the Mediation. undertaken by His MAJESTY for the purpose of preserving Peace between His MAsEsTy's Ally,' the Emperor of Russia, and the Sublime Porte, bad: proved effeetual fOr that important oh jea ; Hts MAJESTY- deeply regrets the failure of chat Mediation, accompanied as it was by the dis appointment of the efforts of His MAJESTY'S Squadron in the Sea of Marmora, and followed as it has since been by the losses which have been sus tained by His gallant Troops in Egypt. " His MAJESTY could not but lament the ex• tension of hostilities in any quarter, which should create a diversion iu the War so favourable to the views of France; but lamenting it especially in the instance of a Power with which His MAJtstr has been so closely conne&ed, and which has been so recently indebted for its protection against the Incroachments of France to the signal and suc cessful Interposition of His MAJESTY'S Arms. " HIS MAJESTY has direeted us to acquaint you, that he has thought it right to adopt such Measures as might best enable him, in concert with the Emperor of Russta, to take advantage of any favourable opportunity f;:: bringing the hos tilities in which they are engaged against the Sub lime Porte, to a conclusion, consistent with fits MAJESTY'S honour, and the interests of his Ally. Gentlemen of the House of Commons, " Hts MAJESTY has ordered the Estimates of the current year to be laid before you, and lie relies on the zeal of his faithful Commons to make such pro visions for the Public Service, as well as for the fur ther application of the Sums which were granted in the last Parliament, as may appear to be necessary. " And His IVIA.rasTY bearing constantly in mind the necessity of a careful and economical Administra tion of the Pecuniary Resources of the Country, has direeted us to express his hopes that you will pro ceed without delay in the pursuit of those Inquiries, conneaed with the Public Economy, which engag ed the attention of the last Parliament. " Illy Lords and Gentlemen, " His MAJESTY commands us to state to you, that He is deeply impressed with the peculiar im portance, at the present moment, of cherishing a spirit of union and harmony amongst his People : Such a spirit will most effedually promote the Prosperity of the Country at Home, give vigour and efficacy to its Councils, and its Arms Abroad ; and can alone enable His MAJESTY, under the Blessing of Providence, to carry on successfully the great Contest in which he is engaged, or finally to condu& it to that termination which His NIA JEsTY's Moderation and Justice have ever led him to seek, a Peace—in which the Honour and In terests of His Kingdom can be secure, and in which Europe and the World may hope for Independence and Repose." The Prince of WALEs's Regiment of Dragoons was yesterday reviewed on Hounslow Heath. One man unfortunately was thrown from his horse, and both his legs were broken. Another was thrown; and had his skull fralured, but not very dangerously. The dust was so thick it is surprising that more me lancholy events of the same nature did not. occur.
