PROPAGATION OF PARLIAMENT.


The business of Parliament was Yesterday Fl
nished, and this day the .ProrOgation took place
The Commissioners appointed by bis majesty
tor this purpose were the lord chancellor, the
earl Of Liverpool and lord Walsingham. The
following is a correct analysis of his msiesty's
speech, as delivered by his commissioners, to
both bouses OF parliament
His majesty states, that, the business of the
session being concluded, he has thought proper
to bring it 10 close. His majesty then congra-
tulAtcs both houses upon the capture of Gauda
oupe, an event which for the first time in the
history OF Great Britain, has deprived France of
the last OF her possessions in the West Indies
and also upon the subsequent capture of the
Dutch possessions in the same quarter of the
globe acquisitions which must inevitably de-
prive the enemy of all further means of annoy.
snce to our daily extending commerce
In the speech to the house of commons his
majesty thanks them for The supplies which they
have so literally granted for the services of the
year; and while he regrets the continuance of
the -arduous struggle iii which we engaged,
he congratula,es the country on the daily increase
OF our resources, and revenues, from the unpre-
cSdented extension OF our com nerce to all parts
| OF The world; circumstance which happily rem
ders the imposition of new burdens or fresh tax.
alton wholly unnecessary.
His majesty next alludes to the notifications
and regulations which have been adopted during
the session. respecting the revenues of Ireland
as having relieved that country from the pr ssure
OF many burdens, without losing sight of due
regard to the necessary receipts from taxation
His majesty thanks the hou9e of commons for
their liberal provision made for the duke of
Brunswick.
| His majesty next congratulates both houses of
parliament that Portugal has been rescued from
the grasp of the enemy by the strenuous efforts
OF his najesty's army, aided by the exertions of
the Portuguese nation, and that Spain, notwith-
ct- III
experienced. still maintains her resistance to the
invader with undated spirit of Zeal and per-
severance
His majesty then assures both houses of parli-
ament that he deems it equally for the honor of
his crown and the interests of his kingdom, to
continue his firm and mistaken support ofboth
these loyal nations.
His majesty concludes by recommending to the
memners of both houses ofparliament to exert
themselves. during the ensuing recess, in their
respective counties, IN propagatuig spirit of IT,
nanimity and concord with obedience to order
| and the laws, as The only means of enabling his
majesty TO give effect to his exertions in the
| continuance of the Irduous struggle in which
we are engaged and while his majesty thus
eXhorts both houses uf parliament, he assures
them that his conduct will ever be regulated by
these dictates; line OF conduct which his m ..
esty's long reign, and the general loyalty of his
subjects has convinced him, is hest suited TO cna
BILE him 10 meet the foreign enemy with effect

VINcENNES, June 80.
Mr.. Brouillctte arrived here Yesterday
from the prophets IOWA, where he has been
for the last two months The information
he bring is, that the prophets designs have
been, far as he can ascertain, entirely
ia filed for the present by the detection of
the tribes mentioned in cur last but that
lie is confident his enmity against the u. s.
remains the same as ever. That the &C
count Of the number of warriors which he
had sent to the governor some time since, as
being under the direction Of the prophet,
wiz. 3000) and was probably exaggerated,
was received from the prophet himself--
That since the detection created by the DE
lawares, there does not appear to him TO be
more than six hundred and fifty imme date
ly abou, him That another deputation had
arrived on the 23d inst. frotn the Delawares
and that the speech they delivered had great
ly enraged the prophet.
Mr.. Brouillette is OF opinion that there is a
constant communication between some per
son ia Vincennes and the prophet. This ap.
pears to be probable from the following cir
cumstance-When Mr.. Brouillette was com
ing CH, the prophet made him declaration
concerning the governor, which a respecta
bic gentleman in this town heard also lin a
conversation between some persons of this
town. some days before it was communica
ted by the prophet to BrouIlette.
