::ose in power. Tin flouris:ni,g,state of ourreverine .m 1 resources was in the highest degree satisfactory. He was perfe6lly aware that we owed this coftsolaL tory circumstance to the wise and vigorona system of finance pursued .by the illustrious Staosman,WhoSe loss all deplored, :whose virtues were.engraven on all hearts,. and whose splendid talents would be the ad-: • miration of posterity.: But let -it not be supposed; that in saying this, he Meant to imply that .he didnot think as highly of that great man's successor. With reSpeta to the commerce. of the 'country, he firmly believed tbat, as it was expressed in His Majesty's Speech, it. would . not only - remain but would extend itself, nowitlista6ding the state of blockade in which the British Isles had been declared to be,--a- blockade by ticountry, which dare not Send' a vessel beyond the prOteaiott of her batteriet: of a nation„possesSing the comniand of ".the oNan,• and which, if she thought proper; could restrain the commerce of the whole world aniproof were -wanting Chit the trace of Great Britain would be :uninjured by the frantic attacks of the Enemy, 'that proof might- be found in a recent declaration made"' by an inslividUal;"tOWllGill he did more honour than he• deserved. by mentioning him in 'that' Housethe kassAl King of Holland, Who in: that Proclamation addition to the accumulated evils which oppress that unhappy country)stated, that the prohibition of neutral trade would give the 'death-blow to the' already p - Tiring commerce of _Holland. After a brief recapitulation of his Sentiments . , he concluded by seconding the Address proposcdby his Hon l'riend. Mr. CZYNIAT:3: declared that he never rose with more liv e ly'sensations of anxiety than on the pi'.esent occasion, bOth because he felt the unparalleled im ' portance 'of the crisis., find the - doty which bound him, in Eonithoti with every Delember.of thellobSe, and-every SObjeCt of the Realm, to state his real Opl• Dion of the situation of our affairs, and of the best means which rt mained for their extrication from the, peril in which they were involved. But in doing this - the - greatest difficulty. Was to avoid that which, above all other-things, .he. was most .solicitous to avoid, namely, to appear to. damp the spit of the cotintryaea period When it was so necessary that firm ness 'and-confidence should prevail. He be.,..ged, therefore, that the Housewould be candid enough to believe him when he. declared, that he entertained a perfe& and sincere confidence—a confidence founded frovont'aslaness, but on the most mature refle&ion—• a confidence foUnded on the experience of the past, on 'the review of the present, and on the anticipation of the future—that there existed in this country re sources amply sufficient to meet and brave all the 'difficult struggles, and to avert all the impending dangers, with which we could possibly be threatened. He trusted that Alt which it might be necessary. for him to say in the course of the observations which he should' take the liberty of submitting to the House, might be considered with a reference to this declara tion. But with whatever confidence he felt,,himself juStitiedinlooking to the resources of the country, be also felt how incumbent it was on him and.on the H6u.se to look seriously to the situation, of the country, to examine, to deliberate, and to determine, .whether all that had passed in-the condo& of the State had been without error, or wheOter some re fle&ions on what had been done might not have a favourable influence on what was still to do.. As suredly it was„ in the power of any man • who, had twi=ned his attention more particularly to public:al, fairs, even of such an humble-individual as himself, td thrOW out suggestions to Government, without the slightest intention of thwarting it; or without the mostrcinote feeling to the. Members of which at was composed.

But ofimanimity there were-dif ferent-degrees. •Therewas-a-deacription of uuapimity ehich blinded every man's judgment to every thing that was wrung, and thUS Made him the pasaiver i - I.fmient Of any 43-ut there was another -abd a superiorspecies a .the. professor of which, while he insisted ad his right to, investigate measures, and .consicier results, .yet would giVe his cordial support o the'Obventment, in spite of 'the errors to which ..he would not allow himself to be "wilfully blind. If j any time this latter course of proceeding was us tifiable, when the judgment ofevry man who nos sOsed 'annudgmenf ()light' to be 'exercised, it was fthe-present... The situhtion.of the Country divided itself into two considerations—our relative situa tion to the world, and our internal 'situation.— ' With regard it, the fOrmer, if Was iMpossible that - :any thing more illSt.or more eloquent could be said upon it than what had been said by the Hon.,Mover of the Address. With -.regard to the latter, it af forded matter for deep meditation. . A new Parlia a mem• kid been aSsembled,and they were now for the Lfirst - time about to review, the transactions .of an Ad ministratiorecomposedolmeo of great talents, who .

At the end of ten months, theSe very Gentleme6 say that the resotiref..s _of the Country remain unimpaired. Those who but ten months agO'•exelaimed that they 'were in.a.itate of -- ;116 utmost dilapidation, now tell us- 7 -nOt that they hate - been retrieved; not thatthey, have been re-es , Itiblished, but that they remain unimpaired. That is, they never have been impaired. It was _cer t.. i ey very satisfa&ory to every - man that there 0:Ao t'ae physical force, and the spirit, by which it wa3 a '-tsiatiN,l. Our internal policy as intim oeijs con -11.1';:led with this 'conteroplatioo. Aed first,swith re gard to the diss , ,lution of the List PAOLI neat was a great difference between questioning the exer cise of an in !ependent prerogative- s and questioning': the propriety of exercisiog it at such a period. le the dissolution were promoted by pirty views, with • the hope of, giving a triumph to Ministers ; and if for these purposes they created and revived 'party differences, at a time when ,they loudly called for unanimity, their condut was highly Colpable.• But he had no doubt-that Ministers had some great pub lic advantage to gain ; for he could not suppOse that they wished to obtain any private benefit at least this he was sure they : eould not avow, Anotber class - of 'observations would apply to the pra6lical means of defence and attack which' /le Country possessed, and the. mode in which tho e 'memos had bleu managed and applied. NoW, was mast extraordinary that in reading the' Skel-, and the history of thelast year, no one would suthriCtt that the Country was at war. There was not a fro. ture of war in the Speech, nor an "a& of war doring the last year, in which Goveroment could assume any credit. There had not beers even a single war like plan, much less any warlike aehieVement.- As for the internal defence of the Country, a . most ' laboured scheme had been brought forward last Ses sion, and when the Right Hon: . Gentleman, by whom it had been produced, had been repeatedly questioned whether or notitwas'iiitended to put it in execution, the answer s was uniformly in the af firtnatives---In no single parish, however, had the slightest step been taken towards _this end ; and yet it was a reliance on this scheme that had been held out to induce Parlianisint to allow the'VOlunteers to crumble away,the Militia to be diminished, and the regular Army to be sent experimenting. And 'what kind of experimenting'? We had' heard of a great .Statesman, who stripped the Country of troops, which he emplayed on various active services, and then boasted thatohe - 'defended it at a distance, Could the Gentlemen opposite 'Make a similar boast ? After otd.ers„--and counter-orders, and confirmations of orders, and revocations of confirmations, and countermandselee. gse; &c 'an Expedition •aanally did saT , frogs the Downs, and arrived—here ? at Plymouth ! -Certainly' a plifee not very well pro-• vided.* with means of defence; and had this 'sung Expedition proceeded tO 'some possession of . the Enemy not superior in so - ength to Plymouth, - they very possibly might have succeeded in taking it. But perhaps this Was- Meant as an , ' ment: anThht have Aeon -Sai - d, " W&11 sail - from the . DoW'ns, land at - Plymouth, and surprise the . Dockers." It was prudent to try to swim upon a table .before committingoneself to the waves. :The Right Tionotarabie Genslernm•Svas not 'accns-• .totted to 'salt water, find he wished to begin' with fresh.,:-.Bi\t could the Country forget the loud ness of hiSaccnsations against his predecessors for what he termed their supineness and negleft?
