What do those qnestions alumna to ? 11,1 hat is Cie Nob'e Earl asked
by them, hut whether any intercourse is allowed between the Prin.'
re's Charlotte of %Vides and what. arc termed tier friends ?• I think
they may he more properly called her enemies. ( Hear, hear,
hear !)-IVhether her Royal Highness is allowt•il the rase ut pen, ink,
and paper, that she may write to her friends, or to those wino call
themselves so ? The questions suppose that het Royal Highness is
debarred from the common comforts and common privileges of her
Age ; and is not this, let me ask; a heavy impntation upon those.
who are imagined to inflict !hew deprivations? I cannot look upon
this. in any other light that as an animadversion upon the conduct
of the Ministers of the Crown, who are responsible for the advice
the% have given to the irersonage who arts in the noun' and on the
behalf of I,it Majesty. I sAv, as one of those responsible advisers.
that the Prince• Regent has hr' law a ri.tht to educate his child in
the manner he deems hest., No man has a right to interfere with him
in 11(1 education, and still less has he a tight ha call for dsly
military interposition. I have only to say, that for any ad v!ce
have given to his I upon this oceasion, I ant ready;
at all times to an4w cr. not fc;aing tor the retail% It is hut.jtistice
to declare, that tiirou,:itont, the Prince Regent has acted with the
greatest perental tenderness; if any advice has been Given to mislead
anon this important question, those who have ootinded it ought to
an,wer for it ; of the relilt of the* illustrious Dake's motion, 1141
111411 can tier a moment doubt, and, at least, the Prince Regent will
have the satisfaction of establishing, in the face cf all manhind,
that he is a person who well deserves the applause, and not the (-en-
sure, .ofevery clan upon earth.
The Duke of SUSSEN--I have certainly been misunderstood, if it
he conceived possible, that. in nutki•ig these remarks, I iiave,been
:tutu:tied by any feeling adverse to the Crown. Such an tinpresion
v• completely unfounded, and I beg, therefore, ditecAy to conti a-
4-:iet it.

The I.c►ttn Cit,‘Ne}:t.t.on then put the question, that the Peers
be summoned fur Finlay next, which was ordered --Adjourned.
