[Mk MAJESTY VIE QUEEN,
Mr.lVtuiraronce rose, on being called upon. to
submit his promised motion to the Manse. The llon.
Member began by stating that, notwithstanding the
anxious desire he felt to bring this subjeet before the
llonse, so painful and oppressive a tas'a did he feel tt
to b., that were it Out for the imperious sense of iloy
by which he was urged to proceed, he sh...uld have
shrunk iron the attempt. lie must indeed lizve been
supported by that kindness which he had experiencii
throughout the whole progress of the business: and
still more by the conviction nilti.h had been so
decidedly confirmed by the disposition evinced by
the Mouse, that they also concurred in one com-
mon feeling on this important question—that thy
united in one universal desire to prevent, if possible, the
adoption of that fatal inquiry which, if his motion vrero
rejected, must be uttered epos. It was these isnoves-

it was what he wished the House to continue to bear in
mind. if something were not done to prevent the fatal
inquiry, he was impressed pith the idea that the ;Testiest
of all evils, one u Melt he eared not to contemplate,
11 would accrue to the country. lie wished also to lay en
for himself a claim upon their indulgence, if, in the
course of his address, he should say any thingwhich
might have the appearance of a want of that retire re-
spect which he telt for the parties concerned. Feeling
9,1 acutely as he did the high importance of the pc.-
tion, hr was scarcely lit to handle it; and if he should
.be betrayed ieto any of that warmth which the ea*,
might so saterit(lss had to, he trust, it that it wonki rot .
he regaided,,—(llear !)-111teee was one other point on •

decide upon, in which it mighf tint be' possible altoge-
ther to adhere to those terhniialities, which, however, •
no one acknowledged the importance of more than
himself. He conld not help borrowiags. another con. •

temper in which •all the correspondence between
them and his Majesty's Ministers hart been carried on.

be knod, hr believed, in pare 6 of thew. papers ;•where
it stated, " That the persons named to frame an ar-
rangement, although representing different iaterestse
should consider themselves in discharge of their duty
, not as opposed to each other. 'but as acting in curer,.
with &Anew to frame an arrangement, to compliance
with the understood wish of Parliament, which may
avert the necessity of a public inquiry into the infor-
mation laid before the two Houses." In that spirit be
hoped the Utilise would conduct the business they bad
to dispose of; that they cook( not cushier themselves
as two parties; nor as being called upon to act merely
for the interests of the King or the Queen ; but that
they were called nun to discharge a ditty, the part they
were to perform, in which they might look back upon
hereafter with pleasure. anti which they might fearlessly
