The general principle which has been adopted in training it, being to suggest a provision for the Female part of the Queen's Household, and for the domestic officers and menials, of whom the greater proportion have been for many years, and during the course of a long reign, attached to her service. 'The amount of this provision, loge - - ther with the pensions to be continued to such 95 were the objects of her Majesty's benevolence, is leqt than was given upon the two last occasions which have been noticedovithout taking into ac count the difference in the value of money at those periods, and at the present. • If Pat liament shall, approve of 'what has. been here submitted, legislative enactments will be required to carry these regulations into effect.--- It will be necessary to alter that part of the Act of 52 Geo, 111. cap. 8, which appoints the attendants on the King's person, and also to regulate the sum te be in future up.. propriated for defraying the expence of his Ma jesty's Household, That clause also of the Act'of 56 Geo.'lll. cap: 46. which enacts, that whenever 'the charge upon the Civil List shall exceed in any one year 1,100,000/. an account of the Exceeding, and the cause thereof, shall be laid before Parlia ment, most he amended, so as to require a similar account to be submitted, whenever that charge shall exceed the amount to which the Expenditure of the Civil List shall be limited by the reductions which are now proposed.-17th hbruarn, 1819.

In considering the scale and expence of the Es tablishment which it is necessary to form, while they approve of the discontinuance of the salaries of certain of the Officers of State, who have hi therto, since his Majesty's indisposition, been re tained, yet your Committee recommeod, that, at the head of the Establishment, an Officer of the rank of the Groom of the Stole should be placed, as they deem it iimportaht to have a person of rank and of high station, connected with the King's service, generally residing near his Majes ty's Person. For the same reasons', it appears expedient that on.e of the King's Equerries (the number of whom, in the judgment of the Com mittee, ought to be limited to four) should be in daily and constant attendance at Windsor. In the examination of Estimates for defray ing the charge of the proposed Tables, and for the other branches of Expenditure at Windsor, your Committee have received satisfactory explahations - respecting them from Colonel S tephenson, to whom the superintendence of the King's House hold fias been in a great degree confided. It appears to them, that the Estimates have been 'framed, for the services to which they ate to be applied, with a. dire attention to economy ; and they refer particularly to " the explanatory statement of the Estimate for the expence of his Majesty's Househoold," which is annexed. A large portion of the expence which, your Cop ) • mittp are unformed, ear mot be_ estimated at . less than one - -third of the' whole ernount, w ill be at all events to be incurred by the mainte nance of Windsor Castle as a Royal Residence, and ought not to be set down, as exclusively be longing to the Establishment of his Mbjesty. The names and descriptions of the Officers, whose sa laries have been discontinued, will be found in the Appendix, together with a list of the nienial servants who have been reduced ; and the amount of the wages and appointments which the latter received in the King's service. Your Committee next proceeded to the subject of the Establishment of her late Majesty, which had been referred to their consideration. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent ,haring been pleased, by his gracious Mess - age, to place at the disposal of Parliament the sum of 58,000/, per ann., in consequence of her Majesty's demise, and at the same time to recommend to the House of Commons the claims founded on "th.e faithful ser vices of those who formed the separate Establish ment of her Majesty, in order that the House might be enabled to judge what part . of that, sam it may be advisable to apply to the annual provision for such persons, your Committee have obtained accounts of such allowances as were made to the Officers and Servants of Queen Mary on her de mise in the year 1694 ; of Queen Caroline in 1737 ; and to the Household of the Princess Dowager of \Vales in 1772 ; amounting an nually, fur the Establishment of Queen Mary, to' 15,2781. 16s. 8d: ; to that of Queen Caroline, to 19,8121. ; and for the Household of the Princess Dowager of . Wales, to 19,7021. 7s. lOd. The Grants, in the instances retry; red to, were not 'brought under the considetatiOn or review of Parliament, but were paid out of the Civil List Revenues; an annual saving on these Revenues having been made, by the discontinuance of the respective Royal Establishments, to a greater ex , tent than those allowances amounted to. In the year 1782, by the Act passed for the 'll.cl:illa tion of the Civil List, the amount of Pensions to be granted out of the Civil List Revenues • was limited, and in consequence of that limita tion, and the present charge on the Pension List, it is not possible t o place such allowances as it may be wisheit to grant to the Queen's Servants upon that fund ; but the whole som of 58,0001. which was annually made to the Qicen, beitig now at the disposal of I 'ar..ament, it remains for Parliament to in:die such provission,in this respect, as it may in its liberality think fk. In offering for the coosideration of the House the annexed Scale of Pensions recommended for the Servants of her late Majesty, while your Cont.._ mittee have had ,in view the expectations which ; those persons may reasonably have entertained, as to the provision which would be made for them when their services should cease, they yet feel it to be their duty to submit to the House, that this recommendation should not be drawn into prece dent on the formation of twine Establishments. it will he observed, that the State Officers, as well as some others; to whom their salaiies were continued lot life, in the instances referred to, do .., , et* ' Ntr, • 4 4 ' , efe. at" ' , 41° el :to+ ' ! , < ,) ' 5u Ps , i fs,, * • lie - ' , , ; e• to' 6( l * to;r0 0 " 4 , ig J oe Oti, 'FHA l)ay were published, price is. • ' r HOUG lITS on the R ESUM PTION of JL CASH PAYMENTS by the BANK; and on the Coin Bill, as connected with that Measure in a Letter addressed to the Right Hon. the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER.
