be his great object to secure the continuance of
Peace to this Realm.

He next thanks the HouSe of Commons

for the Provision made in the last Session

'of Parliament for the Expences of the

Civil Government, and the honour and dignity
of the Crown. He acquaints them that he

has directed the Estimates for the present year

1° be laid before thew, and states his satisfaction

at having been able to wake some reduction in
the Military Establishments. lie observes, with
respect to the public Revenue, that although

tire -
receipts in
Ireland have proved con-

siderably deficient, in consequence of the

llnhaPpy circlinistanos which have affected
the Commercial Credit of that part of th•

Xingdorn, :ring
our Foreign Trade was during

the early part of th,e period in a depressed state,
e total Revenue
has nevertheless exceeded

that.of the Year 1819; that a considerable pot.-

Lion of this Increase must' be attributed to the
r'yeti Taxes, but that in some branches, which

l'regent the surebt indications of internal wealth,
augmentation has completely fulfilled any

.41Pectation which could have been reasonably
,t()Leed
of it.

most anxious desire to concur in every

which may be calculated to advance
Our internal prosperity, and his conviction that,
notwithstanding the disturbances produced by
temporary circumstances and amid the distress
hich still presses on a large portion of his
Subjects, the firmest reliance may be placed on

tliat Affectionate and Loyal Attachment to his
-Person and Government, of which he has rc-

cently Teceived such numerous testimonies from
all parts of his Kingdom, and which, while it is
Alost grateful to the strongest feelings of his

. . . .
-heart, he will ever toitsider the surest safeguard

of the Throne.

He concludes', by expressing his confidence
that in the dischiliie of their impoi•taitt duties,

Parliament will feel the necessity of .prornOting and
maintaining a due obedience to the Laws, and of

instilling into all Classes it respect for la*ful

Authority, and for those Establishments which,
have enabled the country to overcome KM filmy

difficulties, and under Providence to sustain our

National happiness and renown.

An immense crowd of Spectatori lined the
Streets all the way from Carlton Palace to the
House of Lords, and the way was almost
wholly impassable, without great efforts.—There
were comparatively but a few of the despe-
rate Ruffians which might be expected on such an
occasion, and the majority treated His MAJESTY
with loyal congratulations. We are happy in
saying, that His MAJESTY seemed to be in ad-
mirable health; and in good spirits:

The Address in the House of Commobs.was to
be moved by' Mr. BANKs, jun., and seconded by
Mr. BnowN, M. P. for Sligo._

Amongst the many subjects which will engage
the attention of Parliament during the present
Session, there is none of greater importance than
that of Parliamentary Reform, involving, as it
does, the best interests both of the Constitution
and of the Country' itself. It is gratifying to ob-
serve the liberal feeling which pervades the
minds of many of the leading men of rank, for-
tune, and talent, on this interesting topic, as it
gives us reason to hope that the question will be
temperately discussed, and some measure enact-
ed, which will create a unity of sentiment, sa-
tisfy the moderate of all parties, without exciting
the fears of any, or encouraging the violence of
others, and convince the people of England that
the Legislature is alive to their true interests,
and closely _allied with their independence and
prosperity, and that their complaints on the state
of Parliamentary Representation will meet con-
sideration, and any consistent and effective re-
medy receive their support. The total loss of
popularity, and the prevailing idea that nothing
can be expected in support of moderate and ra-
tional Reform, from the great body of the WHIGS
and many of the Opposition Members, have bee❑
justly brought on themselves by their most insi-
dious and vacillating conduct, and by promises
which they never intended to fulfil. To them is
to be attributed the loss of Mr. CliftWE"N'S pro-
position, that every Member, on taking his seat
in the House, should swear that he has been
elected without bribery or corruption, either di-
rectly or indirectly; and subsequently of i\•lr.
WILLIAMS'S Bill for producing uniformity in the
practice of Elections, and destroying fictitious
and occasional voters, by amending the Act of
Geo, 11. c. 18. When we view this important
subject in all its branches, we are disposed to
look forward with every hope and, expectation
that the present Ministry will prove, notwith-
standing the clamour that prevails, that they are
still, as they ever have been, the firm and sin-
cere supporters of the Constitution, and that
they will act in such a manner, in allaying any
discontent that may exist in the Country, as will
ensure for themselves the admiration and grati-
tude of the Nation.

Paris Papers of Friday last arrived at a late
hour last night. The Proceedings in the Court
of Peers and Chamber of Deputies are not of the
least importance. Accounts from Lay bitch state,
that the Emperor of AUSTRIA arrived there on
the 6th instant, and that the EMperot, ALEX-
ANDER and the King of NAPLES were expected
on the 7th or Bth. From the nature of the pre-
parations made at that place-, it was suspected
that the conferences would last a considerable
time ; but as far as concerned the affairs' of
Naples, they would be of short duration. The
basis of all the negociations is said to be the
grand principle that no change should be made in
the territorial state of Europe, as it was settled in
1815, and the following years, and reciprocally
guaranteed by- all the Powers. Intelligence from
Berlin of the 7th states, that the departure of the
King of PRUSSIA will not take place until he 116 s
received dis-patches from Vienna, which are daily
expected. Letters from Saragossa state, that the
persons lately arrested there, among whom was
the Marchioness of LAZAN, will, it is expected,
be shortly released. They were apprehended
and confined on the confirmation of a single in-
dividual, whose testimony is very suspicious.
