Zsirnii,, Commissioner Extraordinary of the go-
vernment of his Majesty the King of the Reliance,
impacting the forte and ceremonies of the with-
' &weal of the civil and military authorities of her
iMajesty from the lonian Islands on the 2nd inst.
The Lord High Commissioner having then pro-
fseeded to the steps of the throne, delivered the
following address to the foootiocariee present :

Gestlessee,-1 have sow performed almost my last act U
her Majesty's Lori High Oommbleaker.
It is not 'reheat agrees regret Wet I lake leave of a
people, with whom I hays for more than five years been
closely connected, and in whose welfare I shall always
soterteio the warmest interned.

To the senates of the 11th, 12th, and 12th parliaments,
I Must tender my !witty Umiab far the assistance they
have mewed Ens in the diseharge of my public duties—
thank' whisk I beg also to offer to el others disc/might'
public functions sad employments in these states.
Notwithstanding the difficulties that have occasionally
arisen, I can testify to the kindly disposition of the lonian
people, to their love of order, and to the many qualities
which eodeer them to those with whom they are brought in
000tect.

Her Majesty the Queen, my august eovereign, to Maria
of her own free will from the »spoilable sod arduous charge
coo6ded to her by the pest powers of Bare" arid in pro-
motiog the 1101011 of these islands with Crews, ham been
solely actuated by the desire to give offset to a wish so often
expressed by the lonian Legislative Assembly, sod the
realisation of which is mouldered by the people, both of
these islands sod of contioent&l Greece, as miedueive to
satiated happiness.

It is unseosiesry to recur to the circumstances which
established the peculiar relatioes which have existed for
userly half a century between the British government and
the lonise States. During the whole period I can conscien-
tiously say that the desire of the British government, of
my predeoesson, sad myself, has been to 'forward by every
possible means the interests of the foals& peopirs.

I can look back with satisfaction on the eodeavotirs re-
peatedly made by tit* British goverement to seised to the
Toulon States those free institutions which have created the
welfare of Eogland, on the material prosperity of theta
islands, which is far in advance of any neighbouring
country, on the institutions which have been founded, on
the made, bridges, harboun, lighthouses, and other publie
works which have been established and maintained, on Um
order which has almost invariably been preserved in times
of general agitation, on a flourishing commerce effectively
protected both at home nod abroad, on the comparatively
mall amount of the publiclidebt, and on a light taxation.

Mistakes may have beep committed; but them are lose-

parable from human institutions, and especially in • poli-
tical condition so anomalous ea that which h•s existed in
this country.
It is the fervent desire of the Queen that the future of
the Greek nation shall be prosperous, and whatever lies
in the power of her Majesty's government to contribute to
this sod will nos be wanting. I need not my that the
greatness of a nation &mods on the self-denial and loyalty
of the people, as much es on the exertions of their gover-
nors. It will be for your King and his arisen to
inaugurate • new state of thiage on • been of sound
economy and mostitutimal freedom by the onse►-
meot of wise laws, and the development of national se.
sources. It will be for you to prove yourselves worthy of
the mission, in which even the most insignificant must bear
his part, by laying saide,lfor the public interest, all pen anal
differences sad the remembrances of former dissensions, by
strict °bodies°, tog Melds+. bv,all ssossearawelf-raerifier,
