DUETTE, Nov. i r.—The Film. Cow sot., in com-
ing to this place, breakfafted at Fecamp, where
he found the Clergy in the midil of an immenfe
crowd, fmging Te Desna for the Anniverfary of the
08th Brumaire. The inhabitants of the villages,
which are near the road, lined the paths ; each vil-
lage had its triumphal arch, and each Mayor ad-
tinted a fpeech to him. He did not arrive here
till fix o'clock. The town was illuminated with
much taste.

but as the Right Hon. Gentleman who had intr..
duced the butinefs, had fo ably Rated die grounds
of the re.eledion of the late Speaker, lie
going into any detail on the fubjeCt. He had the
greateil latisfaCtion in declaring that his fectiment,
were conformable is all relpeCts to thole now de.
livered, and in now riling to fecond the
he was ftrongly impreired with the importance of
the fubjeCt under conlideration. At all times the
duties delegated to a perfon who was to prelide
over the deliberations of that Houle were aniatter
of high importance, but under the prelnt cir-
euniftances this was peculiarly requilite. 'llie
honour and the dignity of the .Houle was at or.c:.
concerned in foleCling a Member poireired of
the qualifications to fill it with dignity and effe(s.
Integrity and impartiality, connected with a jcal-
ous. regard fOr the rights and privileges of the
Houle, as infepatably united with the rights and
privileges of the People, were the charaners and
qualifications of a perfon worthy of filling the
Chair of that Houle, and fuch were di:- virtues
which the late Speaker had exercifed. If at all
perhaps
ofof
times there qualifications were requifite, they
were peculiarly called for at a moment when the
bufinefs of Parliament was fo extended, and when
the fate not onlyay depend of this
upon the deliberations
country,
*thaeEpruerfenoPet, m
fellion. To fill this office with advan-
tage, it was hardly neceffary to fay that unrernitt:ng
attention and vigilance wcre needfary—and what
Member could be found more dillinguithed by
there qualities than the Right lion. Member now
propofed to the Houle for their choice. He ex.
preffed a defire to dilate on the Right Hon. Gen.
dernan's merits, but conceived this to he unneeef.
fart'', as the Learned Member who preceded hini,
had fn eloquently introduced the motion to the
attention of the Houle. He, therefore, contented
himfelf with cordially fedondioti the motion.
After the Hon. Member had finifhed his fpeech,
there was from all fides of the Houle a very ge.
neral cry of Chair! (.Lair !

Mr. Aaron, thus called for, tore and fpoke in
fubflance as follows :

Grateful as I feel for one of the moll
guiffied honours which it is poffible for any Mem-
ber of this Hotife to receive, I cannot reflect on
the duties of the' important office which your fa-
vour calls on me to fill, without great apprehen-
lions of my'own inability; .and certainly the ex.
perience which I have already had only increafes
the force of thefe apprelicntions. To any man
whom the favour of this Houfe may raife to fo
dignified a fituation, it muft occur that his duty
is not limited to daily and ordinary occurrences.
Placed in fo elevated an office, he feels that he
ought to poffefs a comprchenfion of mind embra-
cing every part of his extended duties, a fleadi-
nefs of refolution to maintain inviolate the privi-
leges of the Houfe, as the bell means of preferv.
ins the liberties of the people ; a vigilance, ever
aftive, ever ready to exert itlelf on the various and
unforefeen occafions which, in the courfe of parlia-
mentary, proceedings, may occur. It is true, in-
deed, that much light is thrown on his duty from
a perufal of the journals and recorded tranfaElions
of the Houfe. From them he mutt neceffarily
derive a large fhare' of inartidions, but there alfo
he cannot fail to learn what is fo clearly marked
