PAPERS

Preselted to the House of Commons, by Command of his
Royal Highness the rittNcE REGENT, respecting the
Payment of the DE3TS of the PRINCESS of WALEs,
and the separate Income which his Royal Highness, with
the sanction of his Majesty, settled upon her Royal High-
ness; June, 1809.,

ritnPosAl. sizned by tile Prince, and aec,pted by the Prince. s
igning her name to it, and countersigned by the Prince's

Cklnc.i"Pr.

It having been represented to the Duke•of Port-
land .and Mr. Perceval, by Messrs. Blagrave and
Walter, Solicitors, employed by the Creditors of
-her Royd Highness the Princess of Wales-i,
rind ihiough his Grace. and
.Mr. Perce:•al, to his
Boval 'Highness the Prince of .Wales, that the
DelJs of her ltoval Highness amounted to the
sum of -11,000/. ; the Prince most graciously pro-
posed, and now proposes, to take upon himself
the arrangement of the Debts of her Royal High-
ness to that amount, although under no legal 'ob-
ligation to pay those Debts. his Royal High-
ness was also graciously pleased to propose, and
now proposes, to increase the Income of the
Princess, of \Vales to the stun of 17,000/. net, by
-adding the sum of 5,0001. to the sum. of 12,000/.
(to which sum will be added her Royal High-
Pin-moneys,oool. a-year, received by her
lora Highness at the Exchequer;) and his Royal
Highness further proposes, that the Income of
1 7 ,001; shall commence from the sth day of
July next.

This gracious proposal was made conditionally;
end his Royal Highness most reasonably, amongst
other conditions, intimated, that he and his re-
venue must., by Act of Parliament, or by an
Order of his Majesty in Council, be effectually
indemnified against all debts .which shall in future
he contracted by her Royal Highness, and which
shall nor be discharged out of her own income.-
But It being thought advisable not to apply to
Parliament at present .for such indemnity, and
h t the purpose could nut be effectuated by an
Order in Council, it was suggested, that if any
claim should made against the Prince or his re-
ve!l,ie, for any debt of the Princess's (the Trea-
surer of. the Prince being regular in making pay,
melit to the Princess's Officer of the income of
17,0001. by equarquarterly payments) for the pur-
po•t. of fixing the Prince or his. revenue Nith such
de,)ts ; that application should be immediately made
to Parliament thereupon, for an Act to secure the
Prince and his revenue for the future against all
debts Of her Royal Highness ; the
.17.,000/: per
annum continuing .50 he regularly paid.
in the course of this trausael ion, it was disco-
„rea liv Ir. Perceval, and communicated bvhini
in a letter to. Mr. Adam, that the rrincess's debts
would excel:a the suni of 41,0001, by alma 80001.
for which. excess, \lr. i'erceval -stated, • that l.
could not then accurately -or-liistinetly account,
but that it had not been by any means all incurred
Allring the diseus4t,U.; on the cOntrary," that he
Conceived it. to; orise principally from the intro-
duction of .the demands of other creditors, pro-

.bah'ly on Ow pri'vat'e part who 'hack 4..0t
;.4iven in their debts before to less. Blagrave. and
Walter. As, however, it would be Contrary to
the good 'faith of the proposed arrangement, to
throxi• this exdess upon his Royal Ilighnktss,
occurred to the LOrd Chancellor and Mr:P.:fee-
that it would be advisable to submit to hi,
Misiety) on the paii of his Majesty's servants.
that his nijesty should he graciously pleased to
make a grant from his Droits, .which migla dis-
charge it.
Mr. Adam having laid this matter and Mr. Per-
ceval's letter before the Prince, rketived his aoyal
Highness's commands, to state to the Lord Chan-
cellor and Mr. Perceval, that the train and prin-
cipal motive which had nniformly directed his
Royal Highness's determination, and which he
had never for a moment sight of in this trans-
action, had been, to prevent "(in these times of
great and necessary public expenditure) any debt
of his, or any Other tor which he Wright. be con-
sidered liable, becoming directly or circuitously a
charge upon the public. 'Tat He had lilt-mist;
been influenced by the desire of seeing 'justice
done to the creditors of the Princess ;:.although
his Royal highness is under no legal obligation
whatever to pay those debts ; and by the object of
ohtaining an indemnity against future excesses,
debts, and. demands of her Royal Highness. 7—
On these grounds gave it to be'lmilerstood to the.
Lord Ch•apcellor and Mr. Per2eval, that he did
spontaneously take upon himself the payment of
the Stun stated in Mr. l'rceval's letter to Ali..
Adam of the of May, in addition to tite,sum
of 41,0001. formerly tiiidertaken to be lignidated
by itis Roval Highness. After this communica-
tion, Mr. Percevai considered it to be, nece,sary to
ascertain, with its tutie-h aectire.cy as po,sWle, the
precie soot by which the Debts exceeded t;ie sum
of •-'ll,OOO/. and not to leave it tinder I:,e oticer-
tain statement of about 80001. And Mr. Per-
ceval having examined 'tile sante, found that the
excess a'tose forty-one thousand pounds amount,-
,ed to 10,956/. This state of the Debt Mr. Pct.-
ceval again communicated to Mr:Ailitm, anxiously
%visiting to know front Mr. Adant, what was to he
done resvertiog the addittonal 2,000/. over and
above the 41,00 W.. and tlic 8,0001.

Upon this matter being sunntitted by Mr. Adam
to the Prince, his Voyal Highness commanded him
to signify to Ale..Pereeval, that his liOyal High-
neSs could proceed no twiner ; and that he con-
sidered ft to be the duty of those Who advi•ed file
Princess, to represent to her loyal Highness, that
considering the intomer in which he had acted,
both, in re•pect of PaV'nk.uty Of Dehts and increase
of Income, that ths additional demand should be
discharged .hy-her Royal Ilighne-, and shott,hr
neither fall upon the Prince nor the Public; but
be met by that restricted mode of Expenditure on
the part of her, Royal .11igliness, to which, in
common with himself, and other branches of the,
Roynl Family, her Royal Highness ought to
conform.

Under all these circintistances, and with a sieve
to secure regniarity in the expenditure of the
Princess, and that all the demands upon her own
income may be administered in such manner as is
necessary to answer the intended. objects, it is
proposed, that. the Princess-shall, by a nriting.
under her hand, appoint an Officer of her own to
receive the income now proposed to -be fixed upon
her Royal Highness by the Prince of Wales, from
the Treasurer of his Royal Highness ; and that
the Princess's Officer shall_ receise instructions
by that appointment, to settle the course of pay-
ments in like manner, and in like time, as the pay-
ments on behalf of his Royal Highness are direct-
ed to be settled by art Act of the 35th year of his
Majesty's reign; and that the sans Officer shall
he directed to appropriate a sum of money, by
quirterly payments, to discharge the debt which
is due, overand above those slims of 41,000/. and
8000/. which his Royal Highness has Undertaken
to discharge..
Upon this propOsal of the Prince of Wales, and
with a view to secut-e in the mean time, and in
the fullest manner possible, to his Royal highness,
Indemnity so reasonably required on the part of
his Royal Highness, and with a view to accede to
the other conditions, it p:oposed, if his Ma-
jesty, as time father of his family, shall graciously
so please, that the' Prince should be furnished
with authentic documents to prove, that in the
faith of the transaction it was thoroughly tinder-
stood, and that-his Majesty was graciously pleased
to so understand it, and to think it reasonable
that it should be so fully understood ; that it would
be contrary to what the Prince so reasonably and
justly made an indespensable condition, and con-
trary to the absolute and essential faith of the
transaction, that the Princess having her Debts
to the amount undertaken by the Prince, paid by
his Royal Highness, and receiving the 17,0001.
per annum, should exceed her income ; and that
therefore, in the case before stated, immediate
application Should be made to Parliament for
such Act as is before mentioned, it being always
understood that this was a final arrangement, if
carried into effect, as to the income which his
Royal Highness the Prince of Wales is to allow
to her ROyal Highness the Princess of \Vales
and it was further agreed and understood, that
this document should be signed by the Prince as
making the proposal, and by the Princess as sig-
nifying her Royal Highness's assent and concur-
rence to all the parts of it ; and that the Lord
ChanCellor and the Chancellor of the Exchequer,
who have been honoured with the knowledge of
what has passed upon this, subject, and such
other of his Alajesty's confidential servants as his
Majesty shall please to point out, and the Chan-
cellor of the Prince of %Vales, shall put their
names to time saute.

• We insert in another place the Papers laid be-
fore Parliament, -preparatory to the intended aug-
mentation of Income for the Pt inces4 if WALE 3.

The House of Commons last night presented a
proud and gratifying seede—the Hero of the
tish People receiving the honours due to him from
the Repre*entatiVes of the British People ; a re-
ward far more dear to valour, and stimulative to
glorious ambition, than all the Tibbuns and ;tars
(estimable as these honours are) which -Monarchs
can bestow. So the Duke of WEIIANGTuN seems
to have felt it, and the Nation will read with de-
light, nut only thenoble.expressions of his gra-
titude, but the admirable 'eulogy with which a
man, who equally adorns one of the highest civil
station* in the Empire, clothed the sentiments of
Witain it was his pleasing task, a 3 SPEAKER Of
the Couunotes House, to deliver to her military
Boast—WELLINGTON. • • •

Conuected with the proceedings of the House
last night, there is another point got so brilliant
perhaps, but truly as honourable to the character
of oui• Country, which we cannot help noticing.
We allude to the information given by the
, .
CELLOA. on the snbject; of the conduct observed
by Government towards the unfortunate Emi-
grants; who have so long claimed and enjoyed the
protection of this matchless Isle. Those who
remain, have their pensions continued to a cer-
tain extent, and those who have departed, do not
leave Britain bare and distressed as they entered
it, but provided at the expellee of the State, to
revisit their native soil with comfort.

Louts BUONAPAR;VE has very honourably refus-
ed to received that portion of the plunder stipu-
lated for hint by his Brother, add anivunting to
200,000:francs a-year.

A Morning-Paper is dreadfully frightened at an
American Official Report, • which states-that the
tremendous Navy of that Country (with Littletelt
ROGEIt.S., 'too, to. command it !) " consists (in-
cluding three seventy-fours likely soon to be
launched) of 33 vessels of war'for the ocean, car-
&nig 947 guns ; and 3;1 veisels for the lakes, car-
rying 265 guns, besides 1203 gun-boats, barges,
&c. ! ! !

terrible force, which, deducting ships yet to be
launched, and vessels not warliLely employed,
