eipal motive which had unifOrmly directed his Royal Highness's
de teemieation, and which he had never for a moment lost sight Of
hi this transaction, had been, to prevent (ill these times of great
ond urcese..ry public expenditure) any debt of his, or any other for
which he might be considered liable, becoming directly or circuit-
ously a charge 'you the public. That he had likewise been late
towed by the desire of seeing je•tice done to the creditors of the
Princess, although his Royal Hieliness is under no legal obligation
whatever to pay those debts ; and by the object of obtaining au '
indemnity against future excesses, debts, and demands of her Royal
Highness. On these grOHllda he gave it to be understood to the Lord
Chancellor and Mr. Perreval, that he 'Old spout meously take upon
himself the payment of the sum stated in Mr Perceval's letter to
111 r. Adam of the 30th of May, in addition to the sum of 410 one
formerly undertaken to be liquidated by bias Royal Highness. After
this communication, Mr. Perceval considered it to be necessary to y
ascertain, with as motels accuracy as possible. the precise sum by
which the debts exceeded the sum of -1-1,001/. and not to leave it
under the uncertain statement of about 11000!. And 51i.. Perceyal
having examined the same, found that the excess above 4i.000/.
amounted to 10,0;e4. This state of the debt Mr. Perceval again
communicated io Mr. Adam, anxiously wishing to know from,Mr
Adam what was to be done re,peetiog the additional Oomoi over
