*lWe know not whether it be worth the while to anti- I cipate the Speech of this day, the real document following so quickly the conjectural btatement. Ministers, however, cannot invent topics, but must take them as they rise from t'hie state of the nation, which is open to general ob- servation. Assurances of the friendly disposition of foreign Powers, if, as usual latcly, they form one of the subjects, wvill be tihe rmore grateful on the present occasion, as we think some of those foreign Powers wouldl have liked us better if we had leaned a little more to their side in certain political questions. In tle dispute between France and Spain, how- ever, we are, it is said, to be told, that everv day's experi- ence confirms the wisdom of the neutral cotarse pursued by us. Surely, then, the foreign Powers ought not to be dis- satisfied with us for adopting a system which experience, we can tell them,sanctions as the most bcfitting our station. An amicable arrangement of the dispute between Russia and Turkey is said to be predicted, of whlich we are to as- sume the merit ; as it has been, or rather is to be, conj- eluded through the interposition of the British Ambas- sador at Constantinople. Ah! we have often heard before of this amicable arrangement. We do not wvish for such an arrangement,-we should not think it a subject of conI- gratulation. We pray for the deciled success of oneparty. We hope the Greeks will triumph over their oppressors. The Consuls sent out to New Spain will nio doubt be mentioned; and will it be remarked how foolish a thing it would be in the old Government of Spain to talk of of- fering, as a boon, a free trade to those countries, where we have already a dozen of consuls established ? The affairs of the West Indies form a subject upon wilich we hope the speeeh will be explicit; letting the planters and negroes know what they are -severally to es- pect. Uncertainty upon this hcad cannot but be attended with the most dlisastrous consequences. A deeisive policy, even though erroneous, will, we apprehend, be less preju- dicial than wavering counsels male upechiefly of good. Irelandl ! unhappy Ircland-! Wlhat will be said of thea? That thy wounds aiehealiug? Alas! how many tines has this stale story been repeated to us and thee I The improvedl and improving conditioni of England will, no doubt, be dwelt upon. Whether such imnprovement may be assumed as a merit by any set of rnen, er devoutly ascribed as a blessing to Providence, wve klnow not.
