HIS Majesty being feared on the

the gentleman usher of the black rod,
having commanded the attendance of
the Commons in the House of Peers,
who being come accordingly, hit Aga,

" M, Lords and Gentlemen, ,'
" It is a great fatisfaftioo to me to
reflea, that, noewithftanding many
events unfavorable to the common
cause, the profpea refusing from the
general tituation of affairs has, in ma
ny important refpeas, been materially
improved in the tourfe of the present
year.
" In Italy, the threatened invafion
of the French has been prevented ;
and they have been driven back from
a coofiderable part of the line of coast
which they had occupied—there is
also retfon to. hope that the recent
operation, of the Auftriao army have
checked tye progress which they had
made on the fide of Germany, and
ftufyated the offenfive projects which
they were purfumg im that quarter.,

ed their military operations in other
parts of the campaign, and the advan-
W which they, have derived from

ed in the war. , far born c^mpeo
faing the evils which they experience
from its continuance. The deftruc
tioo of their commerce, the diminu
tion of their maritime power, and the
unpara Ifed embanaffment and difloefs
of their interval situation, have pro
duced the impression which was na
turally to be expeded; and a general
sense appears co prevail throughout
France, that the only relief from the
increafiog pressure pt these difficulties
„must arise from the reparation of
Ipeace, and the eftabliffiment of some
fetcledfyffem of Government.
. v The diffraction and anarchy
which have so long prevailed in that
country, have led to a crisis, of which
it if at yet impoffibic co forefee the if
fe § but which must, in all human
probability, produce confequencea
highly important to the intereffa of
Europe. Should this crisis terminate
in any order of thing, compatible
with the tranquility of other coun
tries, and affording a Referable ex
pedition of fecutity and permanence
in any treaty which might be con
cluded, the appearance of a disposi
tion to negotiate for general peace on
'juft and foitable terms will not fail to
be met, on my part, with an earned
desire to give it the tulleft and speedi
est effed. But lam persuaded you
will agree with me, that nothing it so
likely to ensure and accelerate thii de
sirable end, as to shew that we are
prepared for either alternative, and are
determined to prosecute the war with
the utmost energy and vigour, until
we have the means of concluding, in
conjunction with our allies,, such a
peace as the justice of our cause and
the fituacion of the enemy may enti
tle us to expert.
" With this view I am continuing
to make the greatest exertions for
maintaining and improving our naval
feperiority, and for carrying on active
and vigorous operations in the Weft
indies, in order to secure and extend
the advantages which we have gained
in that, quarter, and which are so near
ly conceded with our commercial re
sources and maritime strength.
? 1 rely with full confidence on the
continuance of yuor firm and zealous
fopport, on the uniform bravery of
my frets and armies, and on the rec
titude, perseverance, and public spirit
of all ranks of my people.
" The ads of hostility committed
by the United Provinces, under the
influence ind control of France, have
obliged me to treat them as in a state
of war with this country.
" The fleet which 1 have employ
ed in the North Seas has received the
most cordial and adive assistance from
Qe naval force furnifhed by the Em
of Russia, and has been enabled
eff&nlly to check the operations of
the enemy in that quarter.
" I have concluded engagements of
defeofive affiance with the two Impe
rial Courts ; and the ratifications of
the Treaty of Commerce with the
United States of America, which 1
announced to you left year, have now
been exchanged—l haye directed co
pies of these treaties to be laid before
you.
" Gentlemen of the House of Commons,
"It is matter of deep concern to
me, that the exigencies of the public
service will require further additions
to the heavy burdens which have un
avoidably been imposed on my peo
ple, Itruft that their pressure will, in
some degree, be alleviated b, the
flourishing state of our commerce and
manufactures, and that our expenses

His view of the calamities the coun
try had been reduced to by the war,
was gloomy. He ridiculed the mea
furei of ministers—adduced instances
of the want of that ability, energy,
and secrecy, which were necessary to
the fucceh of expeditions.
Mr. Fox reprobated the measures
of government, and moved for an a

Mr. Pitt replied—and the question
being taken on the amendment, there
were for it 59, against it 140.

"1 have obfaved for feme time
p<ft with the gftateft anxiety the very
high price of grain, and that anxiety
is entreated by the apprehension that
the produce of the wheat harvest in
the prefect year may not have been
such aw effectually to relieve my peo
ple from the difficulties with which
they have to contend. The spirit of
order and submission to (he laws,
which, with very few exceptions, has
manifefted itlelf under this severe
pressure, will, I am fore, be felt by
you as an additional incentive to ap
ply yourselves with the utmost dili
gence to the consideration of such
measures as may tend to alleviate the
prefect distress, and to prevent, as far
as possible, the renewal of similar cm
barra ffments in future. Nothing hai
been omitted on my part that appear

concurrence in whatever regulations

After the Speaker had read the
Speech, Lord Dalkieth moved the

thrown into the piaute of affairs by
