The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
rose aad moved, that the two Houses of Parliament
hiving agreed to the Resolution, as amended by the
Lords, a Committee be appointed to watt upon the
Prince, to communicate to him the•ote of the Houses
regarding his assumption of the Government, and
that the Committee express their hopes that his Royal
Highness would take upon him the Government in
trust for the King, as soon as a Bill has passed for
that purpose. •

- MAJESTY.
The Right Hon. Gentleman then moved, that the
Resolution respecting the care of his Majesty's per-
son, with the amendments thereon made, be laid be-
fore her Majesty, humbly requesting that her Ma-
jesty would take the important trim upon herself,
and that due provision should be made for carrying
the said gesolution into effect. He moved a Com-
mittee accordingly. Agreed to.
The Right Hon. Gentleman then moved that Lord
Clive be desired to communicate the said Resolution
to their Lordships, requesting the concurrence of their
Lordships with them. Ordered.

On the motion that this House do adjourn,
Mr. SHERIDAN wished to be informed, as he
supposed it was intended to follow closely the prece-
dent of 1788, whether or not it was probable that a
resolution would be come to on an early day, after
the Message had been delivered to his Royal High-
ness, and the answer to that Message was returned,
or issuing a Conunission, under the Great Seal, for
opening the Parliament ?
The CHA9CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
could not name the precise day, but certainly the
earliest day would Ise appointed for that purpose. It
was probable, he observed, that the answer the
Lords would be received to-morrow • it would then,
of course, be proposed to adjourn. Then the names
of the Committee of this House to carry the message
to the two Royal persons at Windsor, would be pro-
posed. Whether on Thursday the answer of the
Royal persons could be received, he did not know,
out he should rather suppose on Friday, at farthest,
when, consequently, the object which the Eight Hon.
Gentleman adverted to, would be before the House.
Adjourned till to-morrow.

PROTESTS
Against a 'Motion made on Friday last, on the Report from the
Committee, to insert the words " subject to such Limitations
and Exceptions as shall be provided."

Because we think ourselves called upon :o protest,
in the most solemn manner, against the principle of
suspending, during his Majesty's indisposition, any
of those lawful prerogatives of the Crown which the
Constitution vests in the King. not for his personal
benefit, but as a trust on behalf of the people—and
to declare, that in our opinion, if such prerogatives'
are necessary, and advantageous to the people under
the permanent Government of a King, they are
equally beneficial and more necessary under the, tem-
porary and precarious authority of a Regent, espe-
cially in a period of extensive warfare arid great na-
tional embarrassment.

AGAINST THE ORDER TO ISSUE MONEY.

Saturday, January 5, 1811.
THE REPORT OE THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE HOUSE.
Ditsentient
1. Because the principle on which the Resolution
is founded, would justify the assumption of all the
Executive Powers of the Crown by the two Houses of
Parliament, during any suspension of the personal
exercise of the Royal Authority.
2. Because this unprecedented and unconstitutional
measure might have been avoided without injury to
the public service, by resorting (as we suggested in
debate) to the mode of proceeding sanctioned by our
ancestors in 1688, namely, an Address to his Royal
Highness the Prince of Wales, to take upon him the
Civil and Military Administration of Affairs, and the
disposal of the Public Revenue, until the means of i
supplying the defect in the exercise of the Royal Au- '
thority should be finally adjusted.
