HOUSE OF LORDS, TIBURSDAY.. Avan. 2;.

At ten minutes before two o'clock this day hi% Ma.
lestv arrived in 4tate at the House of Lords, and im-
mediately afterwards took his seat on the Throne.
The Imperial Crown of the Resin, was not carried ;
tad the Principality of Wales having now merged
the Crown, that distinct symbol of royalty no
ioager has place. Cis Majesty wore his large mili-
tary hat, with the lofty plume.
The Usher of the Black Rod was then sent to corn-
mai tbe attendance of the House of Commons In the
Rase of Peers.

The Speakrr instantly obeyed the summons, and
presented Mundt' at the bar, attended by about 100
Illrabers.

At two o'clock precisely the Kiug commenced the

following Speech :
"Mr Leans axe OneTt.tatex-1 hove taken the ear-
liest oceasioa of assembling you here, atter hosing recurred
to the sense of my people.

of my beloved Father. lam anxious to assure you that Isbell

" I have received trout Porelga Powers renewed asen-
maces of their trierelly disposition, and of their earnest desire
to cultivate nit., the relations of peace and amity.
•• Cleaviaxas or ma House or Col4l6o:4l—The esti-
mow for the pressed year will be laid before you,
.• They hate been framed upon principles of strict econo-
my ; but it is to me tra•ter of the deepest regret that the state
of dm coustry has not allowed me to dispense with those
additions So our military forte which I announced at the
aemaseueestent of the last Session of Parliament.

-The first object to which your attention will be directed
is the provision to be made for the support of the Civil Go-
moment, add of the honour and dignity of the Crows.
"I lease entirely at your disposal my interest In the held-
diary measure anJ I cannot deny myself the gratification
of detarlrig, that so far from desiring any arrangement
which might lead to the imposition of new burdens upon my
Maple, or even might diminish. on my Recreant, the amount
of the redactions incident to my accession to the Throne, I
eta have no wish, wider circumstances like the present, that
oar addition whatever should he made to the settlement
adapted by Parliament in the year IS la.
•' MI Loans ANS* GINTLESILN—DeepIv as I regret that
tie reachiaations and designs of the disaffected should have
led. in some parts of the country, to acts of open violent*
and insurreetien, I repent but express my satisfaction at the
promptitude with which those attempts have been suppressed
by the vigilance and actitity of the Magistrates, and by the
seldom eo-operation of all those of my subjects, whose seer-
imebeeu called forth to support the an thorityof the laws.
•• The wisdom and firmness rusuil,:sted by the late Parlia-
ment, and the due esecutioe of the laws, have greatly con-
tributed to testae confidence throughout the kingdom ; and
to discountenance those principles el -maiden sad irreligion
whidi hod beet disseminates! with such matignant peruser•
once. and had fe.; soned the min i 4 of the ignorant and unwary.
I rely upon the continued support of Parliament in nit
determination to maintain, by all the means entrusted to my
Ink the pe!eir safety and tranquillity.
"Deploring, es we all meet, the distress which still un-
happily Freya:la among many of the labouring classes of the
etemminity. and anitiousty lookiog forward to its removal
Weltigation, it is in the mean time our common duty, effec-
tually to protect the loyal, the peaceable, and the industrious,
aliallet those practices of turbulence, and intimidation, by
wild the period of relief can only be deferred, and by
width am pressure of the distress has been incalculably m-
inuted.
"I trait that anawakened sense of the dangers which they
have incurred, and of the aria which have been employed
t seduce them, will bring hack by far the greater part of
dime who have been unhappily led astray, and will revive in
time that spirit of loyalty, that dee submission to the laws,
■adtbat atteehment to the Constitution, which subsist una-
bated in the hearts of the great body of the people, and
which. under the bismaine of Dis ine Providence, have se-
eared to the British (lotion the enjoyment of a larger share
of practical freedom, as well as of prosperity and happiness,
thin have fallen to the lot of any nation in the world."
The Speech occupied exactly ikven minutes in the
delivery.
The House was crowded with Peers and Peeresses
in every part, and presented a roost interesting and
brilliant spectacle.
lmme•diately after delivery of the Speech the King
retired, and the House adjourned during pleasure.
At five o'clock the House resumed, when

Lord LIVERPOOL moved profbrina the first read-
lag of the Bill fur the better Regulation of Vestries.
The LORD CHANCELLOR then read the Speech
from the Throne, which was afterwards read by the
Clerk at the Table—upon which
Lord GRANVILLE ruse to move the Address.
He expressed his satisfaction that the Speech which
they had jest heard from the Throne was so framed as
to allow of no ground fur hostile debate. His Lord-
ship then obse, ved, tbat there never was a moment
•hen it was more important to the nation at large,
that both Houses of Parliament, in ezpresiing their
