HOUSE OF COMMONS.

FIER ROYAI- HIGHNESS THE PRINCESS

OF WALES.

Soon after the SPEAKER had taken the Chair,
he rose, and addressed the House to the following
effect It is my duty to acquaint the House, that
yesterday evening, as I was sitting in this Chair, a
letter was brought to me, which purported to be from
her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. As the
letter was without date and signature, and as it was
given b% an unknown persOn to one of the Messen.
gers at the door of the House, I felt it to be due to
the respect which I owe to her Royal Highness as
veil as to the House, not to take any step on the re-
ceipt or it until I had f illy ascertained its authen-
ticity. I hope that so far I shall not be considered as
lsavii.g failed iu the discharge of the trust reposed in
me, or as having shewn ditpositim to interpose un-
necessary impediments in the was' of any persons
mho might to lay their c ises before this House.
(ihar, licar.) 1 ant tom- enabled to state to the
llon,e, that die letter which I received yesterday was
authentic ; and with the leave of the House, 1 kill
read to them a krer w h;cii I have this day received
from her Highness, enclosing a dated dupli-
cate of her R 0y.4 Highness's origin;:l communication.
is it the rle.,ture of the House that these letters should
be rea‘i "—( Goren)! cries of Rend, read.)
"Ilw SPLAKEIt then read the Envelope, and the ori-
ginal letter. hey were in substance as follow :

ENVELOPE.
" Minuagu li,)ube, Blackheath, March 2, 1813.
" The Princess of WALES, by her own desire, as
w:..11 as by the advice of her Counsellors, did yester-
day ttanbmiz to Mr. Speaker a Letter, which she was
anxious should hive been tead, without delay, to the
l!ouse of Commons, aid which she requests may be
read to the House this very day ; lot which purpose
her Itoy,l Highness encloses a duplicate."
DUPLICAI E OF TIIE OItICINAL LE rrEn.
" Moi.tagu House, Blackhead., March I, 1813.
" The Princess of WALES informs Mr. Speaker,,

that she Las received from Lord Viscount Sidmoutlf,

a copy of a Report, made in pursuance of the orders
• of his Roy;il Highness the Prince Regent, by certain
Members of his Mjtsty's Most Honourable Prfvy
Council, to whom, it appears that his Royal High-
ness had been advised to refer certain documents and
other evi:!ence respecting the character and conduct
4)f litr Royal Highness.
gg The Report is of such a nature that her Royal
Highness feels persuaded no person can read it with-
out being sensible of the aspersions which it casts

upon her ; and although it is so vague as to render it
impos,ible to discover the icnour of the charge, yet,
as her Royal 1-li.,bness is conscious of no offence, she
feel, it du,! to herself,. to the illustrious Hcuses with
which she is connected by blood and marriage, anJ
to the people among whom she holds so distinguished
a rank, not to rest under any imputation affecting
her honour.

The Princess of WALcs ha; not been permitted
to know ou wh.lt evidence the Members of the Privy
Council poceeded in their investigation; nor has her
Royal Highness been allowed to be beard in her own
defence. She knew only by common rumour that
such an ing:iiry had been instituted, until the result

WAS COMMlinitated to her ill the form cf the Report.
She knows ,rat whether she is to consider the Mem- ,
bers of the Privy Council by whom her crialuct has
been inquired into, as a body, to wht.rn sl:e would
be auth' risil.d to apply !or redress, or in their indivi.
dual capacity, as persons st:ketedto make t:ie Report
on her conduct.
The Princess of WArrs 13, therefore, compelled
to throw herselt on the wisdom and justice cf Parlia-
ment, apd she earnestly desires A full iuvestigation of

her conduct during the wl:ole period of her residence
in this country. Her Royal Highness feats no scru-
tiny, howtver strict, provided it be conducted by
impartial Judges, and in a fair and open manner, be-
fore a tribunal known to the Constitution.

,g It is her Royal Highness's wish, tither to be
treated as innocent, or to be proved guilty.
64 Her R iyal Highness desires tl.at ►his letter may
be communicated to the House of Commons."
A pause of a minute having ensued,
Mr. WHITBREAD observed, - that the Letter
which had just been read by the Speaker could not
fail, not only to interest t very parson wl o had he::rd
it, but to appear to all to be of such importance as to
require the immediate attention of the House. He
apprehended it W 35 impossible that such a communi-
caiou could be made itom so high a quarter, and

•
sufered to pass, with being simply read, in silence.
He had waited MAU a Noble Lord opposite, a
nister of State (one of the confidential Servants of the
Crown when her Royal Highness the Princess of
Wales's conduct was formerly taken into considera-
tion, by that part of his Majesty's most Honourable
Privy Council, particularly and popularly designated
tinder the name of the Cabinet, and who must have
been one of that body of Privy Counsellors to whom
the consideration of her Royal Highness's conduct
had recently been submitted)—he had waited until he
saw that Noble Lord take his place (an intimation,
as lie presumed, that it was not that Noble Lord's
intention to make any proposition on the subject),
before he had risen to address the Chair. Not seeing
any other Hon. Member disposed to pfoceed in the
business, he wished to ask the Noble Lord, whether
it was his intention to call the further attention of the
House to her Royal Highness's Letter ? .
Lord CASTLEREAGH replied, that no person
could feel more thoroughly than himself the import-
ance and delicacy of the present subject. But, as a
notice was entered on the books of the House, of a ,
motion It no further distant period than the day after
to-morrow, relative to her Royal Highness the Prin.
cess of Wales, it did not appear to him to be neces-
sary, at present, to enter on the transaction alluded
to. Whatever delicacy he might entertain -on the
subject, when the proper day should arrive, necessity
might probably impose on him the obligation of fully
explaining all the circumstances of the case. But he
trusted the House would agree with him, that he had
fulfilled his public duty in not anticipating the ex-
pected discussion.
Mr. WHITBREAD inquired if the Honourable
Member who had given the notice (Mr. Cochrane
Johnstone) was in the House ? It so, he trusted that
he would enter into some explanation on the subject.
The letter \Shia had been read by the Speaker,
hvowedly originated with her Royal Highness the
Princess of Wales. The Honouraible Member who
bad given notice of a motion it'Lttive to her Royal
Highness, could alone say whether he was authorized
by, or whether he acted in concurrence with-her Royal
Highness. He (Mr. Whitbread) apprehended not.
As it appeared that the lion. Member was not in the
House, it might be expedient that when he came, he
should be informed of the grounds on IA hich it might
be expected by the Hotter that he would declare whe-
ther his motion was or was not founded on any un-
derstanding with her. Royal Highness. If the Hon.
Member should state that he had no authority from
her Royal H•ghness, it would then be for the House
to decide on the propriety of taking her Royal High-
ness's communication into their most serious and de-
liberate consideration (as lie trusted they would) in-
dependently of a notice with which it would appear
to be wholly unconnected. •
