Tobago had been required on no other ground than
that its inhabitants, without a single exception, were
British-born subject!. Access to the East-Indies had
been conceded upon conditions, and a condition most
willingly accepted by France, thin it should be only
as a commercial people, and that no question of em-
pire should in future distnrheither the repose of India
or the pacific relation of the two countries in Europe,
It was deemed our wisest policy that France should
be a manufacturingliaend commercial rather than a
-military people. Mauritius was claimed by at
not for its value, but for its advantages, in freeing us
from the injury accruitsg to our trade from it as
a cruizing station. St. Lucie was ceded to France
rather than the Saints, as one of the four great
convenient harbours, all of which were formerly
in her possession, which it was desirable for us to re,
tain. No wish was expressed—no effort made to cut
down the commercial interests or the colonial pos.
sessions of France, and she was admitted into the
fisheries of Newfoundland, under such terms as must
avert the possibility of detriment to our own settlers,
Upon the point of Niples, no engagements had been
entered into ; a mere cessation of arms was all that
had taken place. He trusted that all those imputa-
tions which had sometimes been applied to us abroad
of our wishing to use our maritime greatness in a
spirit of usurpation and aggression, were now refuted
by nut conduct in the day of our signal victory.—

Under the most perilous circumstances we !lad adhered
steadily to our principles, and had left the issue to
the decrees of ParvinaNcs. We had concluded the
war, it was true, in the character of Conquerors, but
of conquerors who dispensed blessings to mankind.
--(Hear, kror.)— He trusted that the circumstance of
the King of France having for in many years found

na-
teunal asperities, 3nd nurture that feeling which had
already grown up, by which the people of the two
greatorival States may be taught, that it is p,ssible
that a real friendship and a common interest may pre-
vail between them. The spell, he hoped, was dis-
solved by which they were led to regard each other as
natural and circumciliable enemies. We had never
inspired in the Bourbon Family premature hopes, nor
attempted to make their accidental residence among
us contribute, by fettering then. present Government,
to any object of our own. Before he sat down, he
felt it due to the illustrious person now at the head
of oar own Government, to say, that it was his firro•
