Talielrenfillect to eftliinsideigon. an one account,
indeed, his Lordfhip laid, he was particularly in
debted to his Noble Ft lend for what he had fitid,
becaufe if he had followed his inclination in endea-
vouring to fay of one diflinguifhed Officer %shot he
thought was jaftly his due, it mitht have been ima•
gilled that his fentiments as to the merits of that
Gentleman, were didatecl by the impulse of par
tiality and perfonal ltieudfhip. His Loidffiip con
eluded with moving the thanks of the Houle to a
great number of Officers by name.—The motion
was agreed to nrmine dientiente.
Lord HOBART followed this up with the ufual
motion—That the Honk highly approved of the
condat and bravery of the troops in the army fcrv-
ing in Egypt, and that the lime be given to the
men by their refpeaive Captains and Officers,
which was alto a!;iced to amine X.ntiente.

THANKS TO ADMIRAL LORD KEITH.

Paid, Lord HosART be had to regret the inabi-
lity of a Noble Friend of his, the Noble Earl at the
head of the Admiralty, owing to indifpofition, to
attend his duty in that Houfe. In his abfence he
had to move the thanks of the Houle to Admiral
Lord Keith, for the powerful co-operation and
fupport he gave the army fcrving in f.gypt ; but
he regetted the abfence of his Noble Friend the
more, becaufe had he been prefent he would have
been better able to do juflice to the extraordinary
merits of the gallant Admiral, as well in guarding
the port of Atexandria In effeanally as to prevent
the landing of any reinforcements of the enemy's
troops, as on the Lake islareotis, and during the
march of the army down the course of the Nile, a
march and the fuccefs, it was acknowledged by the
General, could not have been accornplifhed, but
by the powerful affiltance of the feamen, and the
detachments of marines, in their armed boats, flo•
tillas, &c. His Lordthip laid,' he trufled that the
highly important Cervices of Lord Keith were In
univerfally known, that it would not be neeeffary
for him to do more than make his motion of thanks
to the gallant Admiral, which he did accordingly.
Admiral Lord Nrosow role, and briefly laid,
that great praile was due where both fervices, the
army and navy, cordially co-operated in atchiev-
ing objets of the higheft importance to their coun-
try, which had happily been the cafe in the work
of the late glorious campaign in Egypt. On that
occafion it had fallen to the lot of the army to fight
the battles that had taken place, and the labour of
enabling the army to do that with fuccefs had been
the lot of the (cameo and officers of the fleet, who,
he doubted not, felt in unifon with him, when he
declared he felt himfelf equally proud when he was
able to affill the army in their operations on (bore,
or to be affifted by them, where from the nature
of the cafe the brunt of the engagement lay chiefly
with the fleet under his command.—The motion
was put and carried amine 4ffewiinne.
Lord Host, lir next moved the thanks of the
Houle to Sir Richard Bickerton, and various other
naval officers, who commanded in the fleet under
Admiral Lord Keith. This was agreed to non. dif
A general motion was then made and agreed to,
that the Lord Chancellor acquaint Lieutenant Ge-
neral Sir John Hely Hutchinfon, Lord Keith, and
the other officers, to whom the thanks of the Houfe
had been voted.
