IMPERI4L PARLIAMEN T. .HOUSE OF PEERS, THURSDAY, FEB. 1.1, SOME routine and private business was disposed of p in the course of which their Lordships further postponed delivering Judgment relative to the im. portant Appeal ? jokQlsoN iv. Srorrs, till to morrow. The House was then adjourned (luring pleasnre, while the Lords Commissioners, aothorized to de clare the ROYAL AfPROBATION of the SPEAKER, retired to robe. This being done, the Loki) CHAN ELLOR, Lord 140 E ART, and Lord WALSIN.GFIAM, took their Seats on the Bench in the front of the Throne, as His Majesty's tepresenta,tiyes on this occasion. The Deputy Usher of the Black Rod was then sent to order the attendolce of the Commons, who forthwith appeared at the Bar, with their newly eleled Speaker, My, .tNiiip;:a, at their head; 7 —he was supported by the MnsTEiz of the Rotd.s, and Mr. B/iKER.. The LORD CHANCELLOR briefly stated, that it not being convenient to His I\I4JEsT - T to be per,- sopally present, he had thought proper to appoint Commissioners . to declare his Royal Approbation of the SPEAKER chosen by his faithful Commons ? and desired that the Commission be then read, The Commission was accordingly read by Mr. RPSE, the Reading Clerk : it was couched in the usual form and language, and authorised certain Peers therein named, or any three of them, to de. clare and notify His MAJESTY'S royal approbation of the Right Hon. CHARLES Appor, as Speaker of his faithful Commons, &c. Mr. ABBOT then addressed the Lords Com missioners nearly as follows : « In obedience to His MAJESTY'S commands, his faithful Commons of the United Realm of Great Britain and Ireland, in Parliament assembled, have proceeded to the elec tion of a Speaker, and in consequence of which; it becomes my duty to acquaint your Lordships, that the high and distinguished honour of their choice has fallen upon me.- r —lmpressed as.l fully am, with the deepest sense of the very arduous and im portant duties of that high and honourable trust, I have necessarily to regret that their choice has not been better made, and I am fully persuaded that his Majesty's faithful Commons would have ample cause to express their gratitude to the Throne, were it his Majesty's royal pleasure to command them to pro ceed to another eledion.?' On which The Laßp CHANCELLOR addressed Mr. ABBOT to the folloWing eft - ea :—That His MA- J ESTY being perfeftly satisfied with his experience of the prudence and wisdom manifested by his faith ful Commons in repeated former ele&ions, of per sons to fulfil the arduous duties of the great and im portant situation to which their choice had elevated the Member now presented for, the Royal Appro_ bation, His MAJESTY entertained no doubt of his (Mr. ABBOT'S) talents, diligence, and sufficiency to discharge the arduous- and important duties of that situaxion. Then, seeming to address Mr. AutioT on the part of the Lords Commissioners, the Lord CHANCELLOR continued to observe, "that, considering the eleaion made by His Majesty's faithful Commons, they could not but deem •him a s the person best qualified to fulfil these duties ; that they were impressed to a certain degree with these sentiments which he had expressed, but, at the same time, refleffing how great was the encouragement to he derived from the wisdom and temper always manifested by His Majesty's faithful Commons, i n their parliamentary functions, that notwithstanding the arduous and important nature of these duties which he was eleded to discharge, it was with the highest satisthaion they saw, that the choice made by the Commons, was followed by the approbation of HIS MAJESTY; We, therefore, Sir, have it in command from His MAJESTY to notify and declare, that His MAJESTY is graciously pleased fully to allow, and highly to approve, of the choice made by His faithful Commons of a Speaker. We here by, by virtue of His Majesty's Commission, and in His name, and by His Majesty's Authority, allow and confirm their said choice." The SPEAKER then replied to the following ef fth :—" My Lords, I humbly submit to His Ma jesty's Royal Pleasure, and beg to return my most grateful thanks for the high and distinguished ho nour of his Royal Approbation. It will become my duty to assert and maintain the ancient and undoubt ed • rights of the Commons House of Parliament ; and should I, in the discharge of my various important and arduous duties, commit any involuntary error, I entreat it may he imputed to me alone, and not laid to the account of iiis Majesty's loyal and faith ful Commons." The SPEAKER accompanied by the Members, who were very numerous, then retired. Lord MIN - ro took the Oaths and his Seat. No other business being before the House, their Lordships then adjourned till to-morrow. HOUSE OF COMMONS, THURSDAY, FEB. 11. AT a quarter pAt three o'clock, Mr. QUARME, Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod, having appeared at the Bar, Mr. ABBOT took the Chair. Mr. QUARME then summoned the House t attend in the Hcuse of Peers, to hear His Majesty Commission read. Mr. ABBOT, attended by the MASTER of the ROLLS, Mr. BAKER, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, Lord HAWKESBURY, the SECRETA RY at WAR, and about One Hundred Members, repaired to the House of Peers : on their return, Thj SPEAKER having taken the Chair, ad dressed the House nearly as follows :—He said, it was his duty to acquaint the House, that the House had been in the House of Peers, where the Lords, authorized by virtue of His Majesty's C(Dmini s :sion, had signified His Majesty's most gracious Appro. bation of his (Mr.•Aßßuy's) eledion to be Speaker of 'that Honourable now. It was also his duty to OUR Parliamentary Proceedings show, that yes terday the Right Hon. CHARLES'ABI3OT received, through the medium of Commissioners, viz. (the LORD CHANCELLOR, and Lords HOBART and WM.- I NGHAM), His MAJESTY'S Royal Approbation of him as Speaker of the House of Commons, and that he accordingly took his place in that House as such. The acknowledged talents of this Gentleman, his more than common industry and application to bu siness, and his knowledge of the forms and usages of Parliament, seem strongly to impress, not only the hope, but the firm belief, that he will do great credit to the dignified Situation to which be has been raised, WE this morning received an impeded set of the Paris Papers, to the Bth inst. inclusive, They contain an account of the Treaty of Peace signed between the French Republic and the DEY of ALGIERS, on the 17th December, by which all the Old Commercial and Political relations between the two Powers are to be renewed ;—all the goods belonging to the French African Company, that were seized, are •to be restored ; —all French Slaves are to be set at liberty ; and in future no French Subjea is to be made a Slave, unless taken fighting against the Subjefts of the Dey.

The Neptune, Peters, from Dublin to Water ford, is or shore near itudwil Roads. I return his most sincere and grateful acknowledge. merits to the House, fat the. honour-it had done him 'in making him the obje& of its choice. As best proof of the sincerity of his gratitude, he hoped 1 - , l 9use would always find in him the most unremitting exertion; in the discharge of the ardu ous duties 'of that office in which their kindness•had placed him, the most prompt obedience to the col letlive sense of the House, and the strongest dispo sition to afford every assistance to their labours in dividually. But to render these exertions really serviceable, he had most earnestly to • entreat the assistance of the House, which alone could enable him to support their Authority, to maintain their ancient and undoubted Privileges, to uphold the regularity of their Proccedings,, and to preserve their inestimable forms of ProCeeding, because these forms were the best safeguard for their Privileges, and their Privileges were the rights of the People. Several private Petitions were brought up, and Bills ordered to be brought in thereon.
