the hardships which they endured citron the deprecia-

relief from Parliament. The' evils resulting trim
such a state of things were incalculable, and howso:-
ever important and weighty the objections misfit be
that prevailed against the Property and other Faxes,
they were feeble, .compared with the evils resulting.
from the unhappy state of the Agriculture ; And one
less some speedy relief were afforded to the Farmers.
it would be impossible for them to continue the tut--
tiration of the laid. The means which had bees
suggested by an Honourable Gentleman in another
place (Mr. Western), he. highly approved of, ant
the Petitioo was -drawn upin perfect accordance with
those marims, as well. as pith his own notions. It.
had been said on a recent occasion, by a Noble Lord
( Hollered), that Siotland did not contribute her due
share. in the general taxation. As to commercial
and manulacturing- concerns, he did not pretend to
speak with accuracy ; but so far as agriculture was'
concerned, 'the tax, to his knowledge, was paid
more equally in Scotland than it was in England,
where, instead of the regularity and precision whish
prevailed in the former country, the tax was often•
regulated by the ;parochial returns; and he was-
firmly persuaded, that, on examination, Scotland
would be found to ttay the taxes in a fair and equitable
proportion.
Lord HOLLAND perfectly agreed with the Noble
Lord in lamenting the distressed state of Agriculture,
but was by no means of opinion that the evil was
confined to that subject. On the contrary, it per-
vaded every quarter and all concerns within the realm.
No doubt the state of the Agriculture was well de.
szrvieg the
.serious and immediate consideration of
Parliament. Bat so likewise was the Property Tar ,
,and the Peace Establishment. Those, no less than
Agriculture, were involved in the scope of our in.
tertial distresses ; and if the immense Military Esta-
blishment proposed was to be kept up, there was no
way of maintaining it but by a rate of taxation
which tile people wereunable and conseqUently must
be unwilling to pay. Of Scotland he had merely
spoken from reports; and that he bad orej reports
to rely upon was owing to his having been refused,
by a majority of their Loidships, those satisfactory
docitments which would"have resulted from the in. .
lquity which lie had proposed. to institute. From
such authority, however, as he could trust, that in
that very city, which to the surprise, and he would
addjo the dismay of the country, had Petitioned in
favour of the Property Tax, the returns did not ex-,
teed those of the-House Tax. He farther learned,
that in the County with which the Noble Lord WAS
more immediately connected, the Property Tax was
raised contrary to the provisions of the Act of Par.
liament. . The Landowners, and not the Tenants,
are plying the Tax. And what a tax (exclaimed the
Noble Lord) must that be to which, besides all other
objections, was to 'le added inequality of pressure!--.
Those Petitioners die not perceive the necessary con-
nexion between the evils of which they complained.
and the existence of the huge Military Establishment
that wsis proposed.
The Earl of GALLOWAY, in etplaiaation, said
the tat was eqUally welt collected in Scotland as in
England.
THR PRINCESS CHARLOTTE'S MARRIAGE.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL presented the folic...m-
ing Message :
" GEORGE P. R.
" The Prince Regent, suing in the name and on the heheleor
his Majesty, having given toe Royal Consent to a Marriage be.
tween his Daughter, her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte
Auguta. and his Serene Highness Leopold George Frederick,
Prince of Cobourg of Saalfeld, has thought fit to communicate
'the same to this House.
" His Royal Highness is fay persuaded that this alliance can.
not bat he acceptable to all his Majesty's faithful .-object. ; and
the many proofs which his Royal Higboess has reserved of the
affectionate attacifinent of this Howie to his Majesty's Person and
Family, leave him no room to-doubt of the concurrence and
assistance of this- House in enabling him to make such a provi.
sion, with a view to the said Marrtage,as may be suitable to the
honour and dignity of the Country. G. P. R."
The Message being read,
The Earl of LIVERPOOL observed, that he had
yesterday intimated the probability of his presenting
a Message from the Prince Regent, to the effect of
what their Lordships had heard. He had done so
under an idea that Noble Lords might be desirous to
attend, and because it was usual for the Address in
such cases to be moved on the same day with the
Message. He was persuaded their Lordships would
manifest not less respect on that occasion than was
customary with them informer times.—(Near, hoar).
The subject was one which was deeply interesting to
every man in the country. Whatever might be the
diversity of sentiments respecting politics generally,
their Lordships would all agree In making tech as
arrangement as was likely to contribute to the de-
tomtit comfort and happiness Of the ails! Famll7 s
(Hoar,. Issar.)-lis should not detain char Lordships

by entering into mialtte :111trticulors, or it=l
thereby the unanimity of that voce which he
paced. He would only state, mod not in words as of
course, but as the result of sure and correct informa-
tion, that with respect, to the illustrious. person no
whom it was the intention of his Royal Highness the
Prince Regenito *bestow hit dauhter in marriage,
there was but one sentiment on the whole continent
of Europe. He spoke not with respect to the Family
to which he was allied by blood and government.
but in reference to the opinion of all those who knew
him, of his.equals, of those above him, and those bey
low him, all of whom concurred in the same levant-
able opinion of his conduct, principles, and character.
The present Was not the time.for considering what
the provision should be; but every attention would
Floubtless be paid- to what was due to the rank of the
exalted persons, and to .the credit of the country.,
without useless profusion or extravagance. There
was another observation which he would make.
Whatever provision Parliament should order, it
ought to be granted in such a manner as to afford *
full and free enjoyment of it. He was led to make
that remark, because he had known that in some
other cases, when a suflicient provision had been
voted, great inconvenience had arisen from the inat-
tention of Parliament to that circumstance.
He
could state, from the illustrious parties themselves, u
Was their anxious desire :to confine their exp-nsei
within the provision which Parliament might think
proper to make. He therefore relied with confidence
that Parliament, without overlooking economy, would
make such a 'liberal provision in the preavut case 11
the nature of the subject demanded. His Lordship
concluded with moving--
64 That an bumble Address be presented to Lis Royal High:
ness the Prince Regent, returning the Thanks of the House fee:
his widow communication, and to express their entire satisfac-
tion with the marriage of her Royal Highness the Princess Char-
loefi Abgalta to a Protestant Prince of so illustrious a House--
an event which must be satisfactory to all classes of his Majesty's
subjects, and conducive to.titt best interests of the country—and
to assure his Royal Highness, that he might rely wash confidence
am tbe ecosatrrence of the House of Lords in such measures as
Might be necessary to conclude this marriage, and to demon-
strate the afi'ectienste seal and dutilul regard of the Holm to-
wards his Royal Hishoess and the Rnyal Family, as well as its
disposition to pay every proper attention to what was due to the
honour, and dignity of the Crown."
The question having been put upon the Address
by the LORD CHANCELLOR, it was .greed to
without a dissenting voice.
