ment, his -Rolatilighne.,,s the Poi►}cc -Regent has
commanded us to express .to you ti:c -deep . con-
cern and sorrow which he reels the continu-

ante of his Itiajezty's- lamented indisposition.
te'llis Royal Highness regrets the interruptions
which have occurred in the progress of pcblic
business during this long and laborious Session,
in consequence of an event which- his Royal
Hif,imess must ever deplore. The zeal and_ un-
wearied assiduity with which you have persevered
in I-he discharge of the arduous dutieS imposed
upon you by the situation Of the country, and
the. state of public affairs, demands his Royal
Highucs'srlarmest acknowledgments.
The asistance which you have enabled his
Ro7anfighness. to continue to the brave and loyal
nations of the Peninula,is calculated to produce

the most henetichdetrects.
His Royal Highness most warmly participates
in those eentimentsof approbation which you have
bestowed on the consummate skill and intrepidity
displayed in the operations which led, to the cap-
ture 9;: the. important fortresses of eiudadßodrigo
and Badajoz, during the prevent c Impaigne and
his Royal_ Highness confidently trusts, that the
tried valour of the allied forces under the distin-
guished command of General the Earl of Wel-
lington, combined. with the unabated spirit and
steady perseverance d the Spanish and Portu-
guese Nations, will finally bring the contest in'
that quarter to an issue, by which the indepen4
deuce of the Peninsula will he effectually secured; ,
" The renewal of the- War in the North of
Europe furnishes an additional proof of the little
security which can,he derived from any submis-
sion to the unrepation and tyranny of the French
Government. His Royal Highness is persuaded
that you will be sensible of the great importance
.of the struggle in which the EmperOr of Russia,
has been compelled to engage, and that you will
approve of his Highness's affording those
Powers who .thay be united ein the contest, every
deg tee of ca.-operation and assistance, consistent
with his other engagements., and with the inte-,
rests of his iViaesty's dominions.

sure you, that he 'views with the most sincere re-
gret the hostile measures which ,haoe been re-
cently adooted by--the. Government of the United
States America toward this Country. His
Royal :Highness is nevertheless willing to hope,
that the accustomed relations of peace and amity
between the twe Ccuntlies may yetobe reatored ;
but if his expe:!taticrie in this respect should be
dheappointed by the conduct of the Government of
the 'United States, or by their perseverance in any
unwaertetable pretensions, he will most fully rely
on the sneoort of every class of his Majesty's sub-
iects, in a conteet in which the honour of his
Majesty -'s Crown and the best interests of his do-
minions must he invoheed.

ness tO thank you for the liberal provision which

the country is 'engaged to a successful and 110.
Dounble conclusion.
" My Lords and Gentle:.;len, .
"'His Royal Highness has observed, with the
utmost concern, the spirit of insubordination and
catrage which has appeared in some parts of the
