 "The exertions which have carried f us to victory in the field must in no way be abated or slackened until the i ravages of war have been replaced
 and the fabric of our national pros 1 perity has been restored. Through the 1 extension of suffrage which this par 1 liament has carried into effect all i classes of my people will have an op- portunity of inspiring and guiding this 1 benef1cient undertaking.
 ''I trust that the spirit of unity
 which has enabled us to surmount the
 perils of war will not be wanting in
 the no less arduous task of establish | ing on purer foundation of ordered
 liberty the common welfare of my ! DeODle."
