TO THE EMPhESS.
Manaus—The Emperor my Masted has specially charged
tie to testify to your imperial Majesty, all those sentiments
Irish which he is t enetrated towards you. He deeply feels the
illigattan Which he owes to you for the good example, and the
care which the Archduchess Maria Louisa has received from
you. He cannot conceive a better model for the union of. the
Majesty of the Throne with amiability, and the gracious qualities
which your Imperial Majesty possesses in so eminent a degree."

Louisa, now Empress, was conducted by the Prince
of Neufchatel. She was placed under a canopy stir--
rounded by her Ladies and Officers, and then received
1 a letter from the Emperor Napoleon; which the Count
de Beam, Chamberlain to his Majesty, had the ho-
nour to present to her.
The Prince of Neufchatel then advanced to salute
the new Empress, and to be admitted to the honour
of kissing her hand. General Count Lauriston,
Count Alexander de Laborde, Secretary of the Em-
bassy, and the Gentlemen. of the Embassy, were then
presented, whom her Majesty kindly received, and
admitted to the honour of kissing her hand. Count
Otto immediately afterwards presented the Ladies
and Officers of the Court.
The procession to the Church of St. Augustin
was extremely splendid. The Covered galleries,
through which the procession passed, were very bril-
Nobil.

_
destiny of My dear daughter is fixed ior ever, that I am charmed
at receiving from your Serene Highness the assurance of the sen-
timents of the Emperor and King. Habituated upon all occa-
sions to conform my wishes and my opinions to those of the Ern-
pew, my dearly beloved husband, I unite with him in the confi-
dence with which he looks to the results promised by so happy a
vision, as well as in themost ardent wishes for the future and un-
alterable happiness of our err? dear danghter, which will hence-
forth only depend en that if his Majesty the Emperor and King.
4* Feeling sensibly the opinion, much too 'fawourabli, which
his /Majesty the Emmet and Kb. has conceived of e I can
only attribute it to the excellent natural dispositiOn of my dear
daughter, and the mildness of her character. I wilt answer for
her, that her only. objects will be to contribute to the happiness
of his Majesty the Emperor and King, and to conciliate at the
same time the love of the French nation."

Sir F. BURDETT had no objection to answer
any question on what he had done. It might have
been concluded that the writing signed by himfelf
was his ; bnt he now avowed it, it that were wanting
to gratify the Hononrable Gentleman.
Mr. LE'I'HB RIDGE thanked the Hon., Ikironet
for his frankness in the declaration. He (Mr. Leth-
bridge) thought that letter a high insult on the
House, and a flagrant violation of its privileges. As
such, he must notice it, and declared that he would
make a emery short motion on the subject to-morrow.
Lord FOLKSTONE thought, that as the Hon.
Gentleman had stated the subject to be of a grave
and serious nature, involving the privilege of the
House, it would become the. Hon. Gentlithan to
move to proceed to the considera'tion immediately.
Mr. LETH BR EDGE thought, that in conformir;
with the,general practice in giving notice of motion,
he had acted properly.

INQUIRY INTO THE EXPEDITION. .'•. -
Lord PORCHESTER rose. He felt himself -
deeply oppressed by the work which he had under-
taken; for it was one which forced him to look upon
a melancholy scene of national calamity, without a
resting place for the eye or the hope of a man'who
loved his country. In trying to biing into shape
that immense mass of evidence which then lay before
them, he fonad he had undertaken a task of great la-
boor, and great pain ; it wat a- labour arduous and
unconsoling. In looking over the records of a cam-
paign, which had called into- action all the powers of
England, who had sent forth the noblest armament
that ever left the British shores—an armament which

equally astonished Europe by the magnite of
its preparation and its failure, he might have hoped
that some ground of national pride might be found
—some little solid spot, on which the eye of the
empire might rest Without shame ; that there should
be something in our defeat to take away the sharp-
ness of misfortune ; something of -that sudden and
splendid spirit which equally, in the evil day of great
nations and of great men, makes suffering only a
shade to heighten the dignity and lustre of their na-
tive character. If they fell, they fell with glory. But
in this expeditiout all was the direct reverse; its lois-
gilided and feeble advisers appear to have sliest their
eyes against difficulties which they had no other
means of taking away; film before their adventurous
experiments in' the pursuit of idle conquest Then
country had not the consolation to feel, that the fai-
lure of this foolhardy attempt was to be imputed to
those causes to which human wisdom must submit ;,
they could congratulate themselves on n 6 interposi-
tion of those instruments which might leave them
some uncertain consciousness that wisdom existed
among their rulersouren while they were bovred,ckiwa
• defeat ; but here e

.

came down to the House this day, he meant to have
moved that the Honourable Baronet should attend
in his place, in case he had not been in the House,
but finding him in his place, he had walked across
the House to him, and had informed him that he
