The advanced season of &he year requires
that I should afford you some recess from the
public business ; and I do with tbe less relntG
ance, as by the powers veded in me by law,
I can have the aid of your advice and assistance
within fourteen days, should any emergency
make it necessary for me to convene you be
fore the usual time.
Gentlemen of the house of commons,
The various and extensive operations of the
war have unavoidably occasioned uncommon
expence, and brought additional burthens on
my faithful and beloved people, which I most
lincerely regret. 1 cannot fufficiently thank
you for the confidence you have? reposed in me,
and for the chearfulnefs and public spirit with
which the large supplies for the current year
have been granted.
My Lords and Gentlemen,
It is impossible to speak of the continuance
of the rebellion in North-Arneaica without the
deepest concern ; but we'have given such un
questionable proofs of our sincere disposition
to put an end to those troubles, that I must
Hill hope, that the malignant designs of the
enemies of Great-Britain cannot long prevail 4
against the evident interests of those unhappy
provinces, and that they will not blindly per
sist in preferring an unnatural and dangerous
connection with a foreign power, to peace and
re union with their mother country.
Then the Lord Chancellor, by his majesty's
command, said,
My lords and gentlemen,
IT is his majesty's royal will and pleafore, that
this parliament be prorogued to Thursday the ^th
day e s Auguftnext, to be then here holden ; and
this parliament is accordingly prorogued to Thurs
day the yh day of August next.
Aher which lus Malefty was pleated id Make
the following molt gracious speech.
My lords ana gentlemen.
The many great and effentia! services you
have rendered to me and to your country, du
ring the courle of your attendance in parlia
ment, demand my molt cordial thanks.
1 have seen with entire approbation the Zeal
you have rcanifefted for the support and prose
cution of thejuft and recefiary war in which I
am engaged, nor am I less sensible of your at'''
tension to the prefect date of the kingdom of
Ireland: My paternal affection for all my peo
ple makes me finedrely anxious for the hap
piness and prosperity of every part of my Do
minions.
Hitherto the events of war have afforded ,he
court of France no reason to triumph on'tbe
con sequences of their injustice and breach of
public Faith; and I trull by a spirited ^nd
prosperous exertion of the force you have put
into my hands, that ambitious power may be
brought to wish that they had not, without
provocation or cause of complaint, insulted
the honour and invaded the rights of my
crown.
1 have already acquainted you with the hos
tile Hep which has been lately taken by the
court of Spain. Whatever colour may be at
tempted to be pud upon that unjust proceed
ing, I am conflict that I have nothing to
reproach myfelf with : It has been followed
by the cleared demonstrations of the loyalty
and affedionof my parliament to my, person
and government, for which I repeat to you my
warmed thanks ; and Iconfider it as a happy
omen of the success of my arms, that the en
creafe of difficulties serves only to augment the
courage and constancy of the nation, and to
animate and unite my people in the defence
of their country, and every thing that is dear
to them;
To the KING'S molt excellent Majesty,
The address of the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs,
Commons, and Citizens of the city ofDub
lin, in common council assembled.
" Gracious Sovereign,
" WE, the lord mayor, fheriffs, commons,
and citizens of your ancient city of Dublin,
thus dutifully approach the throne, roused
with honeit indignation at the insidious designs
of your Majesty's enemies of the house ofßour
bon, and warm with the most ardent zeal to
maintain the fafety and honour of your go
vernment; influenced by these sentiments,
we for a while forget the unjust and unpolitic
reftriftions on our commerce, continued at the
desire of your Majesty's fubje&s of Britain,
and eager to ^refs forward in their defence,
we lay far behind us the remembrance of the
many wrongs we have borne, yet we trull
your Majesty's wisdom and clemency will ac
cept the tender we now make of our lives and
fortunes in support of any just or neceffar,
war # ; not as the offer of a people insensible to
the aft cumulated distresses heaped upon them,
by falfe policy, and ignorant ministers ; not
as a mere formal address, procured by mini
serial influence from pensioned hirelings,
who in the day of trial would (brink from you,
butas the free-will offering of men zealous to
manifeft the unspotted loyalty of their country
to the augud house of Bruufwick ; as the firlt
tdetermination of fobjefts confiding in the be
neficent intentions of their sovereign, and
who entertain an humble hope, that bt the
favour of Divine Providence, the united ef
forts of all your fubje^s, and thf abidance of
wiser councils than have lately been adopted,
the British empire may not only defeat her nu
merous enemies, but raise once more to that*
strength and glory, from which at prefect that:
empire has so miserably fallen."
Hamburgh, June 25. It is Rill strongly
reported, that the empress of Russia will use
her mediation to establish peace between Eng
land and France, and that Prince Repnin ^
going to London for that purpose.
