ITHANkS TO IMJKE WitLLINGTON .A'ND ARMY. Earl 13atieunst rose ; pursuant to his notice of yesterday, and after apologising to their Lord s-hips for his late arrival, which was solely occa sioned bythe pressure of official busitiess, pro reedetrto introduce his motion, for the Thanks 'of the House to the Duke of Wellington, anti the Officers and Army under his command. In this introduction the Noble Earl adverted to the prominent cOn;iderations , in the late glorious vic-: 'cries, espeteially that of the' 18th, achieved by the illustrious Commander ie question. The operations of that great Officer bad systematically proceeded on the leading principle he had laid down for himself, on, the system of warfare which he hest understood ; and was the rule which he had uniformly adhered to in the Peninsular W a r, till the year ISI3, when the reinfortements he had received placed him on something like an equality with the enemy. Their Lordships then saw that defensive system suddenly changed, and an immediate display of talent in the fineof at 'tack, equally to those he had previously .manifest ed iu the way of defence. On the present glo-. lious occasion, the illustrious Officer in question had given the most transcendent display of his talentei in . both these principles of wartare. On - the 16th, the Prussians were attacked by the' greater part of the enemy's force, and through out the whole of that day, the Prussians gallant ly maintained their post. The Duke of Welling ton, as soon as he understood his assistance was necessary, made immediate dispositions to afford it, and sent a force under Sir Thomas Picton for that purpose. The enemy had vainly claimed the victory on that day, and vaunted they had van quished both the Prussians and the English, who, bo w ever; bad maintained their position at-Sam bref to the last, and the enemy did not venture to renew the attack after they were repulsed.— having lost upw ar d s o f The Prussians, however , 3600 men in these actions, anti finding that their cavalry did not arrive in sufficient time, deemed it advisable to retreat ; in consequence of which the Duke of Wellington made a corre soandent mbtion, and took up a position at Wa feiloo. That position was ope to which he was po'stranger, for•in the' military tour his Grace bad made in the Netherlands preyions to his go i n g to Paris last year, he saw !Waterloo, when he ae clared, that if it ever were his fate to.fight a bat tle for the defence of 'Brussels, he should prefer 'Waterloo as the spat. He'therefore - knew the strength_ of his position, and the event shored the wistioni and skill of his selection.. In this si -teeth;o. the enemy attacked W i n with his whole . fore,'!„ W itt, the exception of o ne cor p s _ t h at h a d been left to watch the Prussians. On the circum stances and event of this.great action, it wasom necessary fur him to expatiate. In the case of it the Duke of Wellington performed alternately all the duties of a Military Commander—as a Com mander ill Chief—as - a : General of Division—as Cdminander of a corps, and_as Colonel of a re giment. lir all these various capacities did that great Officer act on the glorious and memorable action of the of June, which terminated in the complete and signal overthrow of the enemy's grand army, commanfled by the Ruler of Frence in persoie One of the additional effects of thatgreat day, as he had learned from recent dispatches, was bOOO prisoners sent Co Brussels, and upwards of2ooo inore on the road thither. Of the ulterior operations of the Prussians no acentints had .yct been re ceived. It could not he expected that such a great nehievernent could be effectuated without a con siderable loss, and such, he regretted to say, was the case"; but it was the lot of humanity never to receive joy or grief unmixed. The anxiety evhiCim• every individual who had relatives or ac queintagees iu t h e army, might feel on, such ate occasion,- may he conceived. So many brave and meritorious Officers had either fallen -or severely suffered- e that it would be almost invitlotts to se lect particular- names ; but the national regret must accompeny-the fall of time gallant and enter prisini Sir Thomas Ileum.

They should endeavour to establish, by Some lasting and permanent record, the high and unparalleled senSe.entertained by Parliament and the Country, of the fame and glory ac qhired by the Duke of Wellington and those gallant heroes who' fought under him. These were considerations which, he thought, may well stifle. all feelings - however lively,' of individual calamity. It was a view and feeling which he_ thought must be common to all, not' only in the , House but in the country, and he begged their Lordships to accept not only his cordial concur rence in the immediate vote, but in that which he understood was afterwards meant to be proposed by a Noble Earl for increasing the provisionanade for the illustrious character in question. The above motion was then arced to by their Lord:hips, new. dis. The Noble Earl followed it up by the.usual Votes of Thanks to the General OffiCers, and the sOordinate Offi cers and Privates of the - Army, under the command of the Duke of Wellington—as the Earl of Uxbridge, Lord Hill, Baron Alten, &c. &c. which were also voted by the House, dis. • The Noble Earl then moved the Thanks of Hie House " to Field Marshal Prince Blucher, for the cordial and timely as sistance worded by him to the British troops in-the action of the 18th of June, an to which the successful result of that arduous day was greatly-to:be • The Thanks of ihed-louse were then moved "to t h e Of ficers and Soldiers of .the Allied Troops engaged iu the action of the 18th," which, together with the foregoing, .wc►e voted in like manner, near. dis-. THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. The• Order of the Day, for taking his Royal 11 g hn s s the Prince Regent's Alessage.of yesterday into consideration, be ing moved—the Message (of which we gave a correct report yesterday), wr,s again read by the The Earl of E IiPOOL • rose anti Observed, he shouldleel it , a waste of their Lordships' time indeed, if he . presomed, alter what hall been so ably and so eloquently stated, not only by his. Noble Friend, bu't by - the Noble Marquis Oppo site, to address them in any detail respecting the illustrious subject of his Royal Highness's gra cious Message. He.also felt it as superfluous for him to sty any thing in the - view to impress upon their Lordships the propriety of phcing not only that illustrious person, but his family in a situation in which they may exhibit a living mounment of thejratitude•and generosity of the British nation. In such an object, cimfidently anticipated the cordial concurrence of their Lordships, not only as a measure of justice to the illustrious subject of it, but as a lateasure tif true national policy, in ex hibiting a Striking -mark to the people, of the coiin trv's grateful sense of the service of those who ex pose their persons, exert their talents, and shed their blood for its honour or defence ; as all history will prove that when once a country has. lost its miii tary character, or relish for glory as a vii tut, its national independence and security hangs by a very brittle thread. He proceeded - to move the Address to his "Royal Highness, not because he thought there could exist a doubt of the expediency of the Vote, but because he thought it might be necessary, in the way of explanation, to state a few circum stances to the House. With respect to the grants not long. since conferred by Parliament on the Dohe of Wellington, he had the honour to be one of the trustees. The grants were made with great liberality, to amount in the Whole to the sum of 500,0001. a certain part of which, it. was stipu lated, should be applied to the erection of a man sion. It being desirable to accomplish this in the most-advantageous mode, the subject was several times - under the.. consideration of the Trustees,. which they found it impossible to effectuate in any degree upon the principle iii - which Parliament had voted the stun, without trench big too, extensively, upon that which was al,. lotted as the annual 'maintenance of -his Duke dom and fantily ; and this he would venture to say was the decided opinion of the Trustees. — Under this impression, and with a view to that which he was persoatted their Lordships felt for all the former services of the illustrious Officer In question, even independent of the unparalleled triumph of the I Silt of June, in which (as his Noble Friend had well said) he had reunited all the me rits of all his former transcendant military services, and producing a result of, which there was _no ex ample in the annals of this country, he_had no he.- sitation in anticipating the conem rence of all their Lordships, in a proposition which would:go - tßobviate the dirricolties he had adverted to, and to afford the illustrious Duke the real means olity}- holding himself and fancily in that rank' to which his trancendent and unequalled merits had so well entitled him, and which he conscientiously be lievetl, would be at act both of national justice and of policy. He then adverted to-th e disinte restedness and inattention to his own private interests, uniformly manifested by the Noble Duke, particularly for some time, while. he conarnanded in the Penin su l a , w h ere he had only t h e ordinary Staff allowance, and not even that whiff a Commander in Chief usually had for his table ;.on this. be Alai! never made the slig.ltest representati on . f or himself, though he had frequently made application on behalf of others.--(Hear, bear !)

Lord CA3TLEREAGH, ill risilltr to call the at - tention of the House to the last splendid triumph of the British arms, was at a loss to express the feelings which he proved in common with all who heard him. On various occasions he had had the honour to address theM on the exploits of that illustrious Commander, who was the subject Of the motion with which he should conclude 3 but never even among the mighty achieved - tents which had swelled our military renown, since that exalted character was placed at the head of our army, had it been his lot to submit to Par liament a proposition founded ,on .an event so glorious as that which called for the expression of their gratitude this day. 'rite present was a triumph of such a character, that, . without dis paragement to those -actions in which -his great genius had formerly displayed itself, he might say of had never happened even to him to confer so great a benefit on his country before. It was an achievement of such high merit, of such pre-eminent importance, As had never,per. haps graced the annals of this or any other country till now ; and who considered, not only with a view to the immediate loss inflicted on the enemy, but with reference to the moral effect which it must be expected to. produce on the war now _commenced, in the issue 'of whicbthe fate of this country,-of Europe, anti the world were so closely bound up, it, must . he felt that it'opeued tryout• view.a prospect so cheering, and so transcendently bright, that no language could do justice to the feelings it must naturally inspire. lie sincerely felt this to .be one of thoSe instances in which the victory gained most be Ale predated by the inadequacy of languagefaithfully to represent the vast service performed. fie might thereforCdo best to abstain from offering any ob servations of his own, to introduce the vote which he had to propose,,satisfied, as he was, that those to whoop he addressed - himself, would act from what their. own feelings, their own understand :* ikgs, and Their own hearts suggested, and nut upon any thing that might fall frOm,him.—(l.lezir, hear !)—Bit there were some (Ntinguished few tures in this victory which be could Writ he con tent to pass over in silenee.-- - -(1-1e-,tr,!)—It mast be felt that there was in thiS•case sopething in *the situation of t , hostile . arrnies, which, 'Without at all detracting from the high merit and military skill of the great Commanders, who placed tile Allied force in the position it had occupied, gave the enemy a decided ad-. vantage in the first instance. .The war not having • actually commenced, though c ertainly it had been understood it was immediately to break out, hat) caused arrangements to be__•made different from thOse which might otherwise have been thought necessary. The combined artnies, it. had been found expedient to. distribute' where sustenance could most anvenientlY be procured, In the then situation .of things, their policy was evi dently to-act on the defensive,* and coiscquently the power which had to choose the period for acting on the offensive, must necessarily have an advantage over the Allies from the extent of their line, in that part of it , against whicla it might think fit to direct its first attack. This was unavoid able, as the enemy had the choice of the point on which he would commence his operatiens, and as the Duke of Wellington and Prince Blucher could not concentrate their forces without leaving a large portion of the frontier of the dominions of the King of the Netherlands open to the in cursions of the French. This, without mili tating in the slightest degree against the - skill of the Commanders, necessarily gave the, enemy, in the first instance, the advantage he *had described. A person in the situation of 800- - naparte, would naturally, and, he might say, pro perly. consider', while contemplating the opera tions about ' to be commenced by the armies now assembling.along the whole,line of the frontier of the country under his controul, that the course which it was for hint to take was. that which he (13nodaparte) had determined upon taking. What ever' might be the risk of assailing the armies un der the Duke of Wellington and Prince Blucher, it was obvions that if he could bring them into action before they . could be supported by the armies advancing to co-operate with them, the chalice of success Would be greater titan that Which would-remain to him after they had actu ally got up. Buonaparte considering this, had cer tainly formed his resolve with all that judgment and decision of character which belonged to him, when - he determined on the forward, movement that led_ to those operations which had terminated so gloriously for the British and their Allies. In considering the amount of tije force by which the attack- had- been !mle, it. should be r e membered that besides the Imperial Guards, Buonaparte had under him the five most .compk.te corps of the French army, and nearly the wi ol 1 of irs cavalry. and artillery. It was but justice t ) the enemy to say, - that in the actions which had taken place, they had foughtwith determined courage, a nd w,.11 sustained th e ren o wn t h ey had acquirtd in former wars. This circumstance served but to .add to the lustre of the triumph obtained, as it had been gained Over an army co I po sed'of_the)nost expe rienced and best disciplined soldiers, in the world.
