O R, THE
THE
IRELAN D.
HOUS E of LORDS, Monday, May 27.
HIS grace the duke of Portland having retired,
and the chancellor having taken the wool sack,
lord Farnham, after a speech well adopted to
the occasion, moved the house to come to the following
resolution:
“ That an humble addref; be presented to his majef.
fy, to assure him of our most unfeigned attachment to
his royal person and government, and of our most grate
ful sense of his paternal care manifefted in his immedi
ate attention to the representations of bis majefly's fub
jeds of this kingdom
“ To express the lively sense we entertain of his ma
jefly's gracious intentions towards this kingdom, the
wisdom and found polity of his majesty's councils, and
the justice of the British legislature, in having concur
red to remove the causes of the difeontents and jealou
fes expressed in the late addresses presented to his ma
jesty, which measures, we assure his majesty, have most
effectually answered the purposes intended thereby, and
gratified the utmost wishes of his majesty's faithful
fubjeas of this kingdom.
“ That we request his majesty will accept our warm
congratulations, upon the important and decisive vic
tory, gained by the fleets of his majesty over those of
the common enemy ij ithe Weft-Indies, and the fignai
advantages obtained by his majesty's arms in the iflacd of
Ceylon, and upon the Coast of Coromandel ; successes
which will teach his majesty's enemies, that the justice
of his cause, supported by the valour of his people,
will defeat those dangerous combinations which they
have formed against the liberties of mankind, and will
tend to promote that most desirable objed, a permanent
and honourable peace.
“ That we are all well convinced that his maje^y,
regarding all his fubjeas with one and the fame pater
nal affedion, and considering their mutual interests as
inseparably conneded and united, will at all times exer
cise his royal prerogative in such a manner as may ba
most conducive to their welfare.
" That we receive with gratitude his many's most
gracious declaration, that he will give his royal assent
to such alls as may be necessary to prevent the sup
pression of bills in the privy council of this kingdom,
and the alteration of them any where ; and to an a&
to limit the duration of the aft for the better regulation
and accommodation of his majesty's forces in this
kingdom to the term oftwo years.
“ To assure his mjefty, that we are fully fepfible of
the magnanimity of his majesty, and of the liberality
of his parliament of Grett-Britain, in the seconding
his majesty's most gracious intentions to this kingdom,
without any hipularion or condition whatsoever. and
that his majesty may have the firmeft reliance 'upon
the good faith, generosity, and honour of this nation -
that as it is their undoubted interest, so it is their
warmed wjfh to promote and perpetuate the harmony
(lability, and glory of the British empire; and that the
fame spirit which induces them to assert their right to
(hare in the freedom of Great-Britain, will confirm
them in a determination to (hare her fate also, (landing
and falling with the British nation."
The resolution being read at the table, the earl of
Bellamont observed to the house, that in tie cursory
manner in which he had heard it, there appeared fome
whatin it which essentially required amendment. He
said he considered the 6th ofGeorge the First as already
repealed ; the 10th of Henry the Seventh as already mo
dified ; the mutiny bill as already limited. Wou'd
you know the extent of what you have obtained in
the repeal of the 6th of George the Firfl, the foie ob
jefl of my present confederation, you must take a view
how far that aft did extend. What did it contain !
two clauses only, the one alone in the most Drained sense
of the word enabling,the other declaratory. The enact
ing clause extended only to the deprivation of your lord
ships judicial capacity. The repeal of that clause can
therefore only extend to reflore this house to its appel
lant judicature. The clause which refers to the assumed
legifiative supremacy of Great- Britain over Ireland, is a
mere declaration of unlimited claim in the abArad.
The unqualified repeal of that clause cannot do away the
many British statutes affeding to bind Ireland, which
were passed as well previous as subsequent to tnat aft-
Should these British ftatut&s be fuffefed to remain, the
forvivance of them does of irfelf annul this repeal of the
sixth of George the firft, to which, according to the re
fqlution now before you, we limit all our claims. He
did m t mean to depreciate the merits of the present
mioiflers, in the repeal of this a&. Hedid not hefi^
tate to fay, they cou ! dnot meet the fubjeft with more
fairnefs and fullnefe, they could not tr p at it with
less insinuation. But as they have of necessity insinu
ated, we must of necessity explain. He said Mr. Fox
has (hewn, that general maxims are not always just ;
he has ably argued, ab abufu ad ufum ; but info do-
