has caused her Majesty deep affection. The .ex-
IRENE charity and exemplary virtues of her late
Majesty, will always render her memory dear to
the nation. g0
Her Majesty happily continues IN peace and
amty with foreign powers.
In the course OF the autumn, differences of a
serious character arose between the governments
of Austria and Russia On the one hand, and the
Sublime Porte on the other, in regard to the treat
ment Of a considerable number Of persons who,
after the termination OF the civil war in Hungary,
had taken refuge in the Turkish territory.
Explanations which took place between the
Turkish and Imperial governments, have, iortu-
nately, removed any danger to the peace OF Eu-
rope which might have arisen out OF these diff
| ferences.
Her Majesty having been appealed to on this oc-
cason by the Sultan, united her efforts with those
Of the government Of France, to which similar
| appeal had been made, IN order to assist, by the
employment of her good Offices, In efecting an
amicabe settlement OF those differences, In man.
ner consistent with the dignity and independence
| of the Porte.
Her Majesty has been engaged In communica-
tons with ign States, upon the measures which
| might be rendered necessary by the relaxation Of
the restrictions formerly IMPOSED by the navIga-
| ton laws OF this country.

America, and OF Sweden, have promptly taken
IN hChIp fb.ap Of tharr
| respective countries, advantages similar 10 thoss
which their own sh ps now ENJOY In British ports.

| cation laws have hitherto besn OF a restrictive
! character, her Majesty has received from nearly
! all of them, assurances which induce her to hope
| that our example will speedily lead to great and
general dImlnutlon Of those obstacles which pre-
yiOusly existed 10 free intercourse by sea between
the nations Of the world.
In the summer and autumn Of the past year, the
! United Kingdom was again visited by the ravages
| of the cholera, but Almighty God, In his mercy,
was pleased TO arrest the progress Of mortality,
and to stay this fearful pestence. Her Majesty Is
persuaded that we shall best evince our gratitude
by vigilant precautions against the more obvious
causes Of sickness, and an enlightened considera-
ton tor those who are most exposed TO Its attacks
| Her Majesty IN her late visit to Ireland derived
the highest qualification from the loyalty and at
tachment manifested by all classes Of her subjects
Although the effects of former years of scarcity
painfully felt in that part OF the United King
dom, they are mitigated by the present abundance
| Of food, and the tranquility which prevails.
| Her Majesty has great satisfaction IN cOngrau-
| lstipg you on the improved condition of commerce
and manufactures. II Is with regret that her Ma
jesty has observed the complaints which in many
| paris OF the kingdom have proceeded from the
owners and occnpiers of land. Her Majesty great
ly aments that any portion OF her subjects should
be suffering distress But it is source of sincere
qualification to her Majesty to witness the lncreas.
