Chief, lay encamped with him six months together,
in the bleak heads of the North, braving alike the
frozen' Winters of P01.m.1, acid. the gloWing 'summers

continually threatened repose, winch was at length

At every epoch at your.,Government, and particu-

emulating the greatness df your exploits, by the ex,

henceforth the assurance, that we shall gratify your
ItNesty, by interMuigling the homage which we
Owe yeti, with the praises Of that great And good
people, which you have so justly denominated them.
The hearts of all of: us are warmed by the
prods. you have given us of your attachment to the
French. The benevolent expressions which ~yOtt
uttered from " the Throne have' already. filled ,Itei 1
poorest cottages with joy. In talkingof you, it will'

the termination of a long war,' you dithinished the
publit burthens,- whilst yciur triumphant hand so
gloriously dealt forth crowns to those officers. of the
first rank whcr fought by your side.

" It is our first duty to bring to your recollection
that magnanimous promise.. which will not have
been made in vain. Whilst you are creating around
you new dignities, and those intermediate ranks,
which are the appendages of monarchy, and 'serve
to augment its lustre, it shall be our care to draw
closer our ties with that people, of whose sentiments
we are the interpreters. In this we shall find a spe-
cies of greatness, which, though not so dazzling, is
