In/ion of our country, • over wiliClt she WilS one
day, please God, to rule ; and \vial this remark
lie should conclUde.

_ Lord 'AvertPoo:, approved of the resolution
- adopted by the Illustrious Duke: he was by no
means anxious to prolong discussion upon such a
subject,. but he would not feel acquitted of his
duty if he did not say, that 'wither at.the time to
which he had alluded in his notice, or at any
other time, had any intention been entertained to
subject her Itiryil Highness the Princess Char-
lotte to any restraint unsuited toter sex, her age,
or her situation.—(Bear !)—No, nor unsuited to
the interest ‘vhich the country must take in her
circumstances, nor to the feeling; of the Illustrious
Person to whos-e cares she was first entitled. He
could "not conclude without doing the Illustrious
Duke the justice to observe, that his present with-
drawing of his .motion was not prompted- by any
suggeStion with which he was acquainted, either
from the high quarter in question, or from any
of his Majesty's ~i,idyisers.
Lord GREY fully coincided in the belief that
the Illustrious Duke had not acted under any in-
fluence iu what he had clone throughout the whole
proceeding. If thr're had been any influence used,
it existed in his • (Lord. Grey's) advice to retard
the motion ; and that advice he gave, from no
feeling but that general one, of ,the inconveni-
ence that. might arise from making such subjects
Matters of discussion. He acknowledged he felt
most reluctant to make those things materials of
public debate, they always turning upon personal
expostires, which were in almost every case to be
most sedulously avoided. He would not, how-
ever, say, that when private circumstances in-
volved matters of public importance, it might not
become a necessary duty to speak of them•public-
; and he could conceive no topics more inte-
resting than those which _concerned the Heir Ap-
parent of the Realm. His Majesty's Ministers
had .comi! forward to ta-ke'the conduct of an Illus-
trious Personage upon their own responsibility;
they were of course amenable for the future treat-
ment of the distinguished Personage in question;
anLl he warned them, that the reasons 'must be
strong' which could authorise the
.treatment that
had been complained of. He trusted the discus-
Sion was at an end.

The LORD .CHANCELLOR begged leave to say a
I'2w, a very few; words. Noble Lords were aware

'of the diificu!tv ,of exercising the functions of
Royalty for another; and that diflicUlty was, per-
. bap, peculiarly great with respect tO the educa-
tion of the Royal Family, which was, however, a
branch of the prerogative lie must beg leave to
• state to the Noble Lord, whose advice on .the oc-
rasioil did him so much honour, and to. the Illus-
tricms.Duke, of whom he wished to speak only in
terms of perfect respcfA, that when the notice was
given, he cotdd'only divest his mind of a belief that
it was given with reference to his Majesty's Mini-
sters, and what he said then naturally looked to
that conception. However, in whatever way that
was to turn out, he could not part with the question
without saying, that there was no individual more
anxious, not merely now, but at all times,for the per-
fect support of union among all the branches of the:
RoyalFamily.lle would not say that occasions might
never occur when it would be right to adopt in-
quiries like thosesugrsted ; brit if thpy might by
possibility occur, lie should be time last man to
contemplate their frequency. Declaring that he
meant no disrespect to the illustrious Duke, he
• must repeat, that what had occurred before or
since had no reference whatever to the motion of
%Thiel, he had given notice. • •
