• GRANT TO THE PRINCESS ALEXANDRINA AND
PRINCE GEORGE. .
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the
Order elf the Day for the House resolving Itself into a Committee
of the wbole House, upon the consideration of his Majesty's Mes-
Inge relative to making an adequate provision for her Royal High-
ness Alexandrian Victorin (daughter or his Royal Highness the
, but Duke of Kent). anti his Royal Highness George Frederick
Alexander Ernest Augustus (son of his Royal Highness the Duke
of Cumberland.)
, The SPEAKER having left the Chair, the Royal Message was
then read.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER raid, whenever
his Majesty had considered himself called upon to submit to the
egesideration of the House any matters relative to the provisions
necesesry to be made for the due maintenance of the dignity and
attention of the Royal Family, the House of Commons had always
been disposed to treat the communication with respect, and had
nett manifested any want of attention, or any feeling, other than
that of the strongest regard and attachment to his Majesty's royal
person. True it was, the House had not always acceded to those
propositions, but in cases where they had Absented from the royal
suggestion, they hart never failed, to treat the Crown with every
proper degree of attention and respect. It was therefore only ne-
c.esitary to state the nature of the present proposition, and the
grounds upon which his nlejesty's Ministers had felt disposed to
recommend to their Royal Master to send down the Message now
before the House. In the year 1818, on the occasion of the mar.
nage of the late Duke of Kent. his Majesty bad been advised to
send down a Message to the House. recommending that a pro-
vision be mode for an increase to his Royal Highness's income;
abd accordingly the House had come to the resolution of providing
a farther sum ef 8.0001. in addition to the previous income of his
Royal Highness, and also had settled an annuity of 5,0001. upon
her Royer Highness, in case of her surviving her royal consort.
He thought it would he at once admitted that this provision was
wholly loadequate to the maintenance and education of children,
and indeed leo Provision had been made at the time for soy issue
that might be the consequence of the union. The House would
recollect that these existed many calls upon Individuals in the high
station to which the Duchess of Kent belonged, which other indivi-
(Jails were not Liable to, and that it was requisite they should be
enabled to maintain the rank and dignity of their situation as be-
came persons connected with the reigning family. Since the prd.
vision had been made to which he had adverted, a daughter was
horn, the thin of that union : the young Prioress was now arrived
at the age of six years, and it was necessary that a imitable sum
should be provided for her educat ion. proportionate to her situation
in relation to the succession to the crown of this country. Ile had
not the honour to be personally acquainted with her Royal High-
ness the Duebena of Kent, or the young Princess her daughter,
but he understood great pains haul been taken in her education,
eind that for bet years she had been brought up with • due regard
to those sentimems which it was most desirable should be lin-
planted in het mind. This had been effected by the assist-
arca whi;h her Royal Highness had derived from her Royal
brother (Prince Leopold) which had enabled her hitherto to edu-
cate the infant Princess in a manner becoming her rank. The ad-
dui= to the income of her Royal Highness the Duchess of
namt which be should propose, was six thousand pounds per
to enable her the better to bring up the young Princess
as became the female heiress presumptive of this realm,—
He should next draw the attention of the House to the situation of
the family of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland. At
the time of his Royal Highness's marriage, ri proposition had been
made to increase the amount of his income. which the House
proved indisposed to accede to. The marriage had been contracted
nodal cirminstances rot altogether seitisfaciory, and sonic objec-
tiefill existed as to the propriety of receiving the Duchess at Court.
He did not mean to say it was not perfectly competent to the
House eo refuse those grants open constitutional principles, because
it was she only mode by which they could testify their diaapproba-
tion of any irregularity In the marriages at the Royal Family. In
1818 a similar proposition had been brought forward, when .pmvi.
stuns were making for other branches of the Royal Family ; but the
same line of objection had been taken to it as formerly, and the
only thing that had been done was to wide an annuity upon the
Duchess of Cumberland, similar in amount to that seeded on the.
Duchess of Kent, in case she should happen to survive his Royal
Highness. The young Prince, he whose education he had to pro-
pose the present grant, had been born since that period, and was
new 512 sears et age. The position of this rung Prince was out to
different from that of the leant daughter 01 the Duchess of Kent ;
