With respect to the marriage, which took place

that would seem satisfactory ..to their Lordships.

deemed Earl STANIiOrE noticed what he. con-
siderable alteration made. .by the Cornmonsrviz.

mike to the Learned Lord. Ire (Lord R.)
thought his own opinions right still, yet he wish-
ed to give them up to the Commons. His own
maxim was, never to give up a point he thought
right, without boxing for it. (4 loud laugh).
