MONDAY, JANUARY 6, 181'2.

The Morning Chronicle has announced 'the in-
tention of the Party not to move an Amendment to
the Address to-morrow. This forbearance, we are
told, arises from the unobjectiouable manner in
which the Speech is worded; but we shall,-we
Lope, "be--exwied for a little scepticism upon this
Subject,when it is recollected that, upon former occa-
sions; Amendments have been positively announced
long before the contents of the speech could possibly
be known. The Party, it is known, have had a meet-
ing to arrange their plan of operations, but we be-
lieve they could not agree upon any Amendment ;
and, therefore, no motion of that kind is to come
from them. Sir F. BURDETT, however, it is re.:
ported, intends to
.move an kmeddment. The fol-
lowing is the account given 'by the Morning Chro-
vicle 'of the intentions of the Party, and of the sub-
stance of the speech :
" It is under Stood that the speech of the PRINCE
REGENT, to be delivered by the Lords Com Missioners
to-niorrow on opening the Session, is drawn.up with
such qualification as not to provoke an amendment
There is nothing at least to make it necessary for the
Opposition, to avoid any pledge that might be in-
volved in* the terms of the AddresS, to more for
words. -to be •omitted, or for the insertion of other
words-in lieu of those to 'be proposed. by the friends
of the Mingter. We nay of course draw from this,
that no credit is assumed, nor declaration made *by
'Ministers for the past measures, or of the future in-
tentions of the PRINCE REGENT, with regard to the
Roman Catholic claims. There is, we understand,
a. long, eulogium on the conduct of the'army in
'the Peuittiola, of the skilful, gallant, and suc-
mssful affair of General Hill—of the- unsubdued
spirit, constancy, and strtigth of the Spanish forces
in every part of that kingdom, &c.—And there is a
warm congratulation on the capture of the last re-

rnaining hostile settlement in the India seas, by
which our Empire in the East, and our commerce in
its seas, is relieved from all further risk of annoy-

ance.

"There is the usual expression of regret, that the
differences with the Uni(ed States, -notwithstanding
the amicable dispositions of his Royal Highness,
end the direct efforts he has made for that pUrpose,
have not been brought to a happy issue—and it la-
ments that the impeditnents to commerce still con-
Cane ; but he is happy to be able to give an as-
surance to his Majesty's faithful people, that the re-
venue has suffered very little by• tbe .interruption
which has'been given to trade, &c. ahclitoexpress a
I ope that t here will be found little occasion materially
to increase the existing burthens. The afflicting
continuance of his MAJ ES'FY'S illness may give occa-
sion to new arrangements, which will be submitted
to the two Houses, but which will call for no addi-
tional aid from the Commons, Sitc. &c. &c.—This is
not the order of the Speech, but it is the substance."

We are happy to have it in our power to lay be-
fore our readets the following very satisfa&ory state-

Mr HortNt Tooxt has recently had,' a relapte.

of brandy as in political principles, drinking daily

Major CARTA'RIGkIT Would deserve some credit
for having written a letter which appeared in The
Nottingham Journal, with the. declared view of
puttinya stop to the .riotous proceedings in that
county, if he had
-not coupled this object with his.
old hacknied topic of Parliamentary Reform, so as
indeed to excite a suspicion that he took up his pen.
merely t r the latter purpose..
