appeared to me to be so incompatible with the gene-
ral security of other countries, as well as with the
engageinaus to which the French tiastion had recently
been a party, that I felt I had no-alternative but to
employ the military resources of his Majeity's domi-
nions, in ct njnnction with his Majesty's Allies, to
prevent the re-esta'alishment of a system which expe-
rience had proved to be the source of such incalcu-
lable woes to Europe.
" Under such circumstances you will have seen
with just pride and satisfaction the splendid success;
with which it has pleased DivINE PROVIDENCS to bless
his 'Majesty's arms and those of his Allies.
64 Whilst !he glorious and ever-memorable victory
obtained at \\ aterlao, by Field-Marshals the Duke of
Wellington ad Prince Blucher, has added fresh
lustre to the characters of those great Commanders,
and has exalt d the military reputation of this coon-
try beyond all former example, it has at the same
time produ:ed the most decisive effects on the opera-
tions of tho war, by delivering from invasion the do-
minions of t! e King of the Netherlands, and by
placing, in the short space of fifteen days, the city
of Paris, and a I.trge part of the kingdom of France
in the military occupation of the Allied Armies.
66 Amidst events so important, I am confident you
will see how necessary it is, that there should be no re-
laxation in our exertions, until I shall be enabled, in
conjunction with his Majesty's Allies, to complete
those arrangements which may afford the prospect of
permanent peace and security to Europe.
66 Gentlarma of the Hoare of Commie:,
" I thank you for the very liberal provision you
have made for the services of the present year.
64 1 deeply lament the continuance and increase of
those burthens which the great military exertions of
the present campaign, combined with die heavy ar•
rears remaining due for the expenses of the former
war, have rendered indispensible, and which his Ma-
jesty's loyal ,subjects, from a conviction of their ne-
cessity, have sustained with such exemplary fortitude
and cheerfulness.

" You have already seen, however, the fruit of the
exertions which have been made; and there can be no
doubt that the best economy will be found to result
from that policy which may enable us to bring the
edntest to the most speedy termination.
" Lord: and Gentlenses.
" The brilliant and rapid success of the Austrian
arms at the opening of the campaign has led to the
veneration of the Kingdom of NAples to its ancient
Sovereign, and to the deliverance of that important
portion of Italy from foreign influence and dominion.
U I have further the satisfaction of acquainting
you, that the authority of his Most Christian Ma-
jesty has been again acknowledged in his capital, to
which his Majesty has himself repaired.
4. The restoration of Peace between this country
and the United States of America his been followed
by a Negociation for a Commercial Treaty, which I
have every reason to hope will be terminated upon
conditions calculated to cement the good understand-
ing subsisting between the two countries, and equally
beneficial to the interests of both.

" I have great pleasure in acqu tinting you, that'
the labours of die Congress at Vienna have beau
brought to a conclusion by the signature of a Treaty,
which, as the ltatific.itions have not yet been ex-
changed, could not be communicated to you, bit
which I expect to be enabled to lay before you when
1 next meet you in Parliament.
4$ I cannot release you from your attendoece with.
out assuring you, that it is in a great degree to the
support which you have afforded me, that I ascribe
the success of my earnest endeavours for the public
welfare ; and on no Occasion has that support been
more • insFortant than in the course of the resat
Session.

46 In the further prosecution of such Tonsures ss
may be necessary to bring the great contest in which
we are engaged to an honourable and satisfactory
conclusion, 1 shall rely with confidence on the upe.
rienct-d zeal and steady loyalty of all classes of his
Majesty's subjects; and they may depend on m
efforts to improve our present advantages li4 Rich
manner as may best provide for the general tran-
quillity of Europe, and maintain the high character
which this country enjoys amongst the nations of the
world."

CHARCILLOR having approached die Throne, and
rewind the Prince Regent's commands for the pur-
pose, :17 forward, and addressed both Houses, as
