MESSAGE FROM TIIE PRINCE REGENT.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
brought up the following Message from the Prince
Regent, which WAi read by the Speaker :

" GEORGI P. RT.

" The Prince Regent, in the name and on the behalf of his

Majesty, having taken into his royal consideration the eminent
and s:gual services performed by General Lord ViscountWel-
lingtrn, in the course of a long series of distinguished exploits
in the campaigns in Spain and Portugal, at:d bring desirous to

mark the sense he entortains of serricos so honourable to the

British Army, and to eminently beneficial to the interests of
the Nation, has conferred, in the name and on the behalf of his
Majesty, upon General Lord Viscount Wellington, and the
heirs male of his body, the rank and dignity of an Earl of the
United Kingdom, by the title of Earl of Wellington. The
Prince Regent, further desirous of granting to the Earl of Wel-
lington a net annuity of two thousand pounds, in addition to
the annuity already granted by Parliament, and subject to the
same limitations imposed in that grant, recommends to the
House of Commons to enabl-.. his Royal Highness, in the name
and on the behalf of his Maiesty, to grant and settle such annuity
and to make such further provision aforesaid, as may be thought
most effectual Air the benefit of General the Earl of Wellington
and his family."
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
moved, that this Message be referred to a Committee
of the whole House.—Orderei.
He then moved, that the House on Friday next
should resolve itself into a Committee for this pur-
pose.—Ordered.
COMMERCIAL LICENSES.

Mr. ALEXANDER ialN-6-rose to move for

the production of certain papers on the License Trade.
He observed, that however satisfactory it might be
to the Noble. Lord at the Board of Trade to regulate
the commerce of the country, yet he was convinced
that there was hardly a man connected with business
who would defend the system of licenses as now car-
ried on. The commerce of the country was not now
left to the good sense and activity of individual mer-
chants ; but the Lords of Trade prescribed not only
the destinations, but the quantity and amount of the
articles of cargo, matters of which the.), could have a
very imperfect knowledge. Thus individuals were
not only liable to be injured, but an influence was
given to the Crown by the system of licenses unpre-
cedented in its nature and extent. The whole of the

subject Would soon, however, be brought under the
consideration of the House, and he trusted they would
pause before they gave it a continuance of their sanc-
tion. His object at present was only to move for
some papers illustrative of the effects of the licerce
system. The first of these was a memorial from the
merchants of Heligoland to the Privy Council, set-
ting forth the injur es which they hid sustained from
the nature of the licenses whicti were granted them.
There had been a similar memorial from the mer-
ch,ants at Ma t 4, but he should confine his motion to the
former. The other paper that he wanted was, a return
of the spirits imported under licence from Holland
since October lasti togt titer with copies of the licenep.

The Board of Trade bad uniformly vefaseA _ _cent%
to import spirits from Holland, and yet so it was, that
two cargoes were imported lately, each of which had
been provided with a licence. The explanation Riven
at the Board of Ti-ade was, that the word “ spirits'.
had crept into the licences by an error of a clerk;
but this was a sort of error by which 10 or R 15,000
might be put into the pockets of individual% and
therefore required some explanation. The Hones r,
ahle Member concluded with moving for the memo.
rial of the merchants of Heligoland.
Mr. ROSE said, that the honourable Gentleman
could not be more anxious than he was, that the
whole of the license system should be br.ught before
the. House in a tangibh... shape. He could not, hoe,
ever, consent to his motion, as the production of the
to
thtea Me,.t
he
paper might cause grcarrinconvenience
chants at Heligoland, by giving publicity to the va.
rious facts and statements which it contained, He
had no objection to the production of the secondpapiN
and could state that the whole circu.nstance to which
it referred, arose from the inadvertence of the clerk
who drew up the licences, inserting the word e spirit,,,
by mistake; and it was not wonderful that where tee
thousand licences had been granted, such an error
might have crept in for once.
Mr, BARING observed, in explanation, h
did not mean to charge the Board with gross par.
tiality, but rather to spew the flagrant abuses which
might be practised under the licence sys.em. Asa,
merchant, he must say, that had the licences fee rhe
importation of these spirits come into his hands, be.
could have made by them at least 10 or JC15,000,
Mr. MARRY Arr was perfectly ready to declare,
that as far as his knowledge or information extended,
the Board of Trade had acted with perfect impar.
tiality in the granting cf licences. At the same oral
he mast say, that the forgery, the bribery, arid the
perjury, which the whole system had produced, were
quite disgusting ; while the facility with which h.
ceases had been granted, had exposed the property
of British merchants ta those dreadful confiicanocs
in the Baltic, which had utterly ruined so many i;.
dividuals.

Mr. BROUGHAM wished to give notice, than
this day fortnight he would bring forward his mot*
en the general subject of Licences. At the me
time he wished to e4l Ore attenti n of the House to
the I,ict nnw .t.ited.by one of the first merchmaid
'his cou-itry (Mr. Baring), that und.,r the Emu.
svretn, as connected with the Orden in Ceoac:l,
.ht Crown was possessed of the power of issuing a
1.,. ce of paper, ad lib,iisrma, for which, in the c,,uree of
businesi, it would be worth any merchant's id& is
pay 10:or £15,000t •
The CHANCELLOR of 4he EXCHEQUER,
contended, that there was nothing so very new cc
extraordinary in the system, as the lion. Gentlemaa
wished to hold our. Whether this country IVIS at west
with anoth r, with which, at the same time, it vas
found expedient to carry on some trade, there was
no way r f ci nducting that trade but through the
medium c:of licences : and now, when we were at irst
with the greater part of Europe, it was quite esidees
that the licence sy.tem must be proportionally es.
tended, if the benefits of the Continental trade wen
at all to be afforded to Britjsh merchants, and not
wholly resigned to Neutrals. No one instance, be
believed, had occurred of licences being granted
where trade could be carried on without them; and
sure he was, that they never had been granted by the
Board, from partial or sinister motives.
The Motion for the-Memorial was then put, sad
negatived ; and that for the Spirit Importatioali•
cences,accede4 to.
Mr. AROUGHAM moved for copies of Memorials regret•
ing licence, ; for the number of licences granted by Officers cm.
mending in the islands of the Channel; for the number of form
seamen who bad entered into our service for the last ten yrst•
and the number of vessels which bad entered and doge! •
from all the ports of this island in that time; and he gave

FRAME-BREAKERS' MU»
The order of the day being read, to take this 818
into consideration, and the question having been put
that the Speaker do leave the chair,
Mr. LAMBE said, lie should give the Bill hi
support. The great cause of the disturbancet
considered the decay of trade. The measures or th-
Emperor of France were evidently their main causes
and it was nothirg less than wilfully deluding
country to hold out a hope that greater commerci
embarrassments, greater severity of distress, than t
country had hitherto felt, were not yet to be cad -
When crimes became difficult of detection, the r
sary and only resource was severity of pun6hment.
Sir T. TURTON did not think that Ministers
,used either the ordinary civil means, or r.,e extract
d:nary military means which they possessed, toga'
and proper advantage. The poor deluded • •
who were the objects of this bid, were greatly wk
pitied. They were in want of bread ; and any a*
sure of the Legislature would not, he was afrvidsO
able to put down the risings of hunger. The
evil, and the spring of every minor evil, was the wil•
tinuance of the war.
Creneral TA RLETON condemned Miniallisir

magnitude. He thouAht that other means WS!
resorted to, than adding another dark .14110,"

The PRINCE RECENT, yesterday, commenced the
raise of his unrestricted powers. His first act will
it bailed by the country as one of peculiar grace.
ft pill be seen in our Parliamentary proceedings,
that Messages were last night delivered to both
Hoeses from the Pewee REGENT, announcing that
be has created Lord WELLINGTON a British Earl, and
!commending that an additional annuity of 02000.
tegranted to his Lordship.
It is a singular coincidence that the Cadiz Mail,
received this morning, also announces the elevation
of Lord WELLING roN to the rank of a Grandee of
Spin of the highest class, with the title of « Ciudad
Rdnio"—afid it will, perhaps, excite a smile of sa-
tisficloo, when our Readers are informed that this
vrn one of the first acts of the new Spanish Regency !
The Public will also be gratified to hear that high
know, have Aho been conferred on several other
brave and meritorious Officers. The PRINCE REGENT
has directed a statute to be passed to invest Generals
GIAHAMI lint, and Sir SAMUEL AUCIIMUTY, with
thcOrder of the Garter, as rewards for their signal
achievements.

" Carlton-House, Feb. 13, 1812.
11 Mr DEAREST BEGTFIER—AS the restrictions on
the exercise of the royal authority will shortly expire,
when [ must make my arrangements for the future
Administration of the powers with which I am inves-
ted, I think it right to communicate those sentiments
which I was withheld from expressing at an earlier
period of the session, by ray warmest desire that the
expected motion on the affairs of Ireland might tan-
' ergo the deliberate discussion of Parliament, un-
mixed with any other consideration.
" I think it hardly necessary to call your recollec-
tlca to the recent circumstances under which I assu-
med the authority delegated to me by Parliament.—
At a moment of unexampled difficulty and danger,
I was called upon to make a selection of persons to
whom I should entrust the functions of the Execu-
tive Government. My sense of duty to our Royal
Father solely decided that choice ; and every private
holing gave way to considerations which admitted
elm doubt or hesitation. I trust I acted in that re-
spect as the genuine representative of the august per-
son whose functions I was appointed to discharge ;
lad I have the satisfaction of knowing that such
has the opinion of persons for whose judgment and
honourable feelings I entertain the highest respect
to various instances, as you well know.
" When the law of the last Session left me at full
waved any personal gratification, in order
that his Majesty might resume, on his restoration to
lath, every power and prerogative belonging to his
Crown, I certainly am the last person in the king-
dom to whom it can be permitted to despair of our
Royal Father's recovery. A new era is wow ar-
med, and I cannot but reflect with satisfaction, on
tiletvents which have distinguished the short period
restricted Regency. Instead of suffering in
the loss of her possessions, by the gigantic force which
la been employed against them, Great Britain has
added most important acquisitions to her Empire.
The National Faith has been preserved inviolable
bards our Allies ; and if character is strength, as
applitd to a Nation, the increased and increasing re-
Potation of his Majesty's arms will shew to the Na-
Continent how much they may achieve
by a glorious spirit of resistance to a

to the whole Empire. If such is the

the communication of my sentiments

in this new and extraordinary crisis of our affairs,
cannot conclude without expressing the gratification
I should feel, it some of those persons with whom
the early habits of my public life were formed, would
strengthen my hands, and constitute a part of my
Government. With such suppoft, and aided by A
s igorous and united Administrations formed on the
most liberal basis, I shall look with additional confi-
dence to a prosperous issue of the most arduous con.
test in which Great Britain was ever engaged. You
are authorised to communicate these sentiments to
Lord GREY, who, I have no doubt, will make them
known to Lord GRENVILLE.
" I am always, my dearest Fatneatcx, your ever
affectionate Brother,
(Signed) " GEORGE P. R.
P.S. I shall send a copy of this letter immedi-
ately to Mr. PERCEVAL."

The following is a Copy of the Answer of Lords
GREY and GRENVILLE, as sent to the Duke of YORK :

66 FBBRUARY 15, 1812.
" Sm.—We beg leave most humbly to express to
your Royal Highness our dutiful acknowledgments
for the gracious and condescending manner in which
you have had the goodness to communicate to us the
letter of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, on
the subject of the arrangements to be now made for
the future Administration of the public affairs ; and
we take the liberty of availing ourselves of your gra-;
cious permission, to address to your Royal Highness
in this form what has occurred to us in consequence
of that communication. The Prince Regent, after
expressing to your Royal Highness in that letter his
sentiments on various public matters, has, in the con-
cluding paragraph, condescended to intimate his wish
that some of those persons with whom the early habits
of his public life were formed, would strengthen his
Royal Highness's hands, and constitute a part of his
Government ; and his Royal Highness is pleased to
add, that with such support, aided by a vigorous and
united Administration, formed on the most liberal
basis, he would look with additional confidence to a
prosperous issue of the most arduous contest in which
Great Britain has ever been eagaged."
" On the other parts of his Royal Highness's letter
we do not presume to offer any observations ; but in
the concluding paragraph, in so far as we may ven-
ture to suppose ourselves included in the gracious
wish which it expresses, we owe it, in obedience and
duty to his Royal Highness, to explain ourselves
with frankness and sincerity. We beg leave most
earnestly to assure his Royal Highness, that no sa.
crifices, except those of honour and duty, could ap-
pear to us too great to be made, for the purpose of
healing the divisions of our country, and uniting both
its Government and its people. All personal exclu-
sion we entirely disclaim : we rest on public mea-
sures; and it is on this ground alone that we must
express, without reserve, the impossibility of our
uniting with the present Government. Our differ-
ences of opinion are too many and too important to
admit of such an union. His Royal Highness will,
we are confident, do us the justice to remember, that
we have twice already acted on this impres, irn ; in
1809, on the proposition then made to us under his
Majesty's authority; and last year, when his Royal
Highness was pleased to require our advice respect-
ing the formation of a new Government.
" The reasons which we then humbly submitted to
him are strengthened by the increasing dangers of the
times ; nor has there, down to this moment, appeated
even any approximation towards such an agreement
of opinion on the public interests, as can alone form
a basis for the honourable union of parties previ )usly
opposed to each other. Into the detail of those diffe-
rences we are unwilling to enter ; they embrace al-
most all the leading features of the present policy of
the Empire ; but his Royal Highness has, himself,
been pleased to advert to the late deliberations of
Parliament on the afFairs of Ireland. This is a sub-
ject, above all others, important in itself, and con-
nected with the most pressing dangers. Far from
concurring in the sentiments which his Majesty's Mi-
nisters have, on that occasion, so recently expressed,
we entertain opinions directly opposite : we are firmly
persuaded of the necessity of a total change in the
present system of tint country, and of the immediate
repeal of those civil disabilities under which so large
a portiOn of his Majesty's subjects still labour on ac. I
count of their religious opinions. To recommend to
Parliament this repeal, is the first advice which it
would be our duty to offer to his Royal Highness,
could we, even for the shortest time, make ourselves
responsible for any farther delay in the prospect of a
measure, without which we could entertain no hope
iof rendering ourselves useful to His Royal Highness I
or to the country.

44 We have only further to beg your Royal High-
ness to lay before his Royal Highness the Prince Re-
gent, the expression of our humble duty, and the
sincere stid respectful assurance of our earnest wishes
for whatever may best promote the ease, honour, and
advantage of his Royal Highness's Government, and
the success of his endeavours for the public welfare.
We have the honour to be, &c.

(Signed)

LISBON MAILS.
This day arrived two mails from lAblin brought
to Falmouth by his Majesty's brig FRRVENT, in ten
days.
When the last accounts left the army Lord War,
LINGTON was marching With a diyision towards BA-
dajos. On the 4th instant they were at Abrantes,
and they expected to be at BadajOs on the Bth. A
great quantity of cannon from the Portuguese men
of war, had been shipped for St. to be employ-
ed at the siege of 134clijos. His Lordship his left a
sufficient force to watch MARMON?. • .
The following are the most prominent articles of
intelligence brought by the above mails

" LISBON, FEg. t.
" Relative to the movements of the army w•e know
nothing positive, but it appears Lord WeLuxofol4
already begin; to direct his attention cowards Hada;
jos ; we are even assured that his Excellency will
cause that fortress to be summoned ;'the state of the
garrison, reduced as it is by circumstances, is not
such as to admit of its making a successful defence.
" The army of Gallicia will, it is said, make a
movement, it is probable that the Spaniards ptolit by
the absence of B3net.

Yestet (1 y we were assured Joseph Bonaparte
had left Mod: id, and that k was intended to erect
fortifications On the banks of the Ebro."

" LISBON, FEB. S.
" The gallant General Crawford died on the 24th
ult. of his wounds ; and on the following day was in-,
terred in the breach of Ciudad Rodrigo. The town
is not greatly injured. About ten houses are down ;
but many more were destroyed by the French to pro-
cure beams, which they placed slanting against the
houses, as a defence against the effects of cur guns ;1
the sth division, under General Hay, is now repair-I
ing the breaches, which is performed, for the present,
with gabions, &c. A considerable number of fine
guns were taken, all of brass, and many mortars of
the largest calibre. When every thing is placed
in order the place will be given to the Spaniards to
preserve. He.td-quarters are at Gallegos. General,
Hill has his troops at Castello Branco, Idaanha
Nova, &c. &c."

Txtract of an Official Dispatch from Marshal Lord Wellington to
Don Miguel Forjaz, dated Head-quarters, Gallegos, Jan. f 9.
"E x cel nt Sit—Marshal Marmont arrived at Sala-
manca on the 22d inst. ; and on the 23d and 24th six
divisions of infantry of the Army of Portugal joined,
in the neighbourhood of Alba and Salamanca. The
division of Souham, with near 600 horse and some
artillery, were on the 23d ordered to Martella, and
proceeded as far as San Muros and Tamarnes. The
object of the brovement of this division was to ascer-
tain the fact of the fall of Ciudad Rodrigo, It after-
wards retired towards the Tormes. Ido not know
that Bc.net's division has crossed the Douro. We
are occupied in repairing the damage occasioned
Ciudad Rodrigo by our fire, which was, shortly after
being taken, placed in security against a ecvi de main,
and I hope in a few days its works will be in a good
state of defence.

44 I have the honour of transmitting your Excel-
lency a copy of the intelligence published by the
enemy, on the 13th inst. in the Madrid Gazette, re-
lative to the battle with the Spanish army near Valen-
cia, on the 26th December. It is satisfactory to ob-
serve, that notwithstanding the unfortunate result of
that day, the communications of the enemy were so
difficult, that they were obliged to occupy the space
they did between the date of the said battle and their
publication of it in Madrid.

" I have, nevertheless, reasons for believing, that
notwithstanding Valencia was closely invested, the
enethy had made no progress in their attempt of ob-1
taining possession of it so late as the 7th ; and that
General Blake had ordered the divisions of Mahi,
Villacampa, and Obispo, which had retired, to return
to Valencia:

" It appears by the inclosed information, that Ge-
neral Montbrun's cavalry were in the action of the
26th ult. whilst, on the contrary, some regiments
under his command are still in Castile with Marmon,
and I hear that the same General Montbrun was
ten days ago in Rovilo.
gg I have received no intelligenq from Cadiz
since my last of the 21st to your Excellency.
" P. S. Since writing the above I have received
intelligence that on the 28th inst. the enemy &red a
fes•dejoye in Salamanca, for the taking of Valencia
it is said this event took place on the Bth or 9th Inst.
I but no circumstantial account was given, nor is it
positively asserted."
LISBON, FEBRUARY 4.
" To•day we have received an account by a courier
from Beira Alta that the two breaches in the walls
of Ciudad Rodrigo have already been repaired, and
, that Marmont had begun to retreat."

" LISBON, JANUARY 31.
it All the last letters received from the Alenttjo
and Beira, ague in stating, that the army in all the
points they occupy suffer great inconveniences and
privations. A letter from Campo Mayor, dated 26th
January, says, that General Philipon, Governor of
Bsclajoz, having given permission to all me families
who chose to quit the place, a number bad in coupe-
quence left it.
At Campo Maior alone 40 families had strived,
who state the scarcity that prevails in that fortress to I
be extreme ; a pound of bread costs 400 revs, and one
of rice 240. The ganison is reduced to half a ra-'
don, and has scarcely sufficient for its support for
3/tree months. At other places on the Alan:neje
many other families had likewise arrived."

A Nfail from Cadiz a.co arrived this mining i the

gour, in filling all the appointments within their

augurs favourably.—The following are a few extracts

" CADIZ, JANUARY s 9.
ee The Regency Gazette cpotlins tie official accounts
of the advantages obtained by Brigadier General
Duran over the garrison of Soria ; the intercepted
letters to the Governor of Badajos cf the 16th and

Ciudad Rodrigo. Tice partisans, Tembilla and
Loridos have obtained adiant.tges over the enemy.
In Potts there are 2000 prisoners, made by Longa
and Mendigaliel. •
