the continuance of the arduous struggle 10
! " hioh We are engaged, he congratulates the
! country on the daily encrease OF our resour-
/ ces, and revenues, from the unprecedent-
ed extension Of our commerce TO all parts OF
the world--a circumstance which happily
renders the imposition of new burdens or
fresh taxation wholly unnecessary.
His majesty next alludes to the modihca.
tons and regulations which have been a.
dopted during the session, respecting the
revenues of Ireland, as having relieved that
country from the pressure OF many burdens
without losing sight ola due regard to the
necessary receipts from taxation.
[ His majesty thanks the house OF COM
mons for their liberal provision made tor the
duke of Brunswick.
1 His majesty next congratulates both heus-
: es OF parliament that Portugal has been res
cued fromthe grasp Of The enemy by the
strenuous efforts of his maIestY's army, aid
ed by the exertions OF the Portuguese ma
tion-and that Spain, notwithstanding the
many reverses OF fortune she has expert
enced, still maintains her resistance to the
invader with an undated spirit of zeal and
perseverance.
! His majesty then assures both houses OF
parliament, shat he deems it equally tor the
honor of his crown and the interests OF his
Kingdom, to continue his firm and unshak-
EN- support of both these Explanations.
His majesty concludes by recommending
to the members of both HOUSES OF parila-
ment 10 exert themselves, during the ensu-
ing recess, in their respective counties, IN
propogatina spirit Of unanimlty and con-
cord, with obedience&to order and the law,
as the only means of enabling his majesty
to give effcctto his txertions in the CONT
nuance of the arduous struggle in which we
J are engaged; and while his majesty thus
| exhorts both houses of parliament he as
| sures them. that his conduct will ever be re-
! gulated by these dictates-a liae or conduct
which his maiesty's long reign, and tn ge--
neral LOYALTY of his subjeces mas convinced
him, is best suited to enable MIN TO meet
the foreign enemy with =Heet.
