felt by that important body among my people who. are
owners and occupiers of land ; but it is my confident hope
that the prosperous condition of the former class of my
subjects will have a favourable effect in diminishing those
difficulties, and promoting the interests of agriculture.
The recent assumption of certain ecclesiastical titles
conferred by a Foreign Power has excited strong feelings
in this country, and large bodies of my subjects have
presented addresses to me expressing attachment to the
Throne, and praying that such an assumption should be
resisted. I have assured them of- my resolution to main-
tain the rights of my country, and the independence of
the nation, against all encroachment, from whatever
quarter it may proceed. I have at the same time ex-
pressed my desire and firm determination, under God's
blessing, to maintain unimpaired the religious liberty
which is so justly prized by the people of this country.
It will be for- you.to consider the measures which will be
laid before you on this subject.

The adniinistration of justice, in the departments of
law and equity. will no doubt receive the serious atten-
tion of Parliament; and I am confident that the measures

which may be submitted to you with a view of improving
that administration, will be discussed with that mature
deliberation which important changes in the highest
-,dom imperatively demand.

A measure

establishment of a system of registration of deeds and
instruments, relating to the transfer of property. ' This
measure is the result of enquiries, which I have caused
to be made, on the practicability of adopting a system of
registration, calculated to give security to titles, and to
diminish the causes of litigation to which they have
hitherto been liable, and to reduce the costs of transfers.
To combine the progress of improvement with the sta-
bility of our institutions will, I am confident, be your
constant care.

We may esteem ourselves fortunate that we can pur-
sue, without disturbance, the course of calm and peaceful
amelioration ; and we have every cause to be thankful
to Almighty God for the measure of tranquillity and hap-
piness labial has been vouchsafed to us.
