The usurpation of - be Supreme Authority in France by Bona rarte. in consequence of the defection of the French armies from reir legitimate sovereign. appealed to me to be an incompatible with the gel eral -eenrity of other countries, as well as with the imgagemeor , to which the French nation load recently been a party, that I frit I had no alternative but to employ the military re !toffees of his Majesty's domiiiions, in conjunctilio with leis Majesty% Allie•, to pr , •• ent the re s stablisloment of a system whir!' eXpetience had pruned to be the source of such incalculable Woes to Europe. Unit: r :neat circumstances you will have seen .1411 h just pride and Ati,,b". l l oo the splendid success with which it has pleased Divine Providence to blew , His Majesty's arms and those of his Allies. IVldlst the elotions and ever memorable Victory obtained at Water- 100, by Field Marshals the Dula of Wellington and Prince Bill• rher, has added fresh lustre to the characters of those great Commanders, and has exalteil the Military reputation of this comm try beyond all former example. it has at the same time produced the most decisi ve effects on the operations of the war, by delivering from invasion the dominions of the King of the Netherlands, and by placing, in the short space of fifteen days, the city of Paris and a large part of the kinedoin of France ho the military oecupatiun of the Allied armies. Amidst events so impoo twat, I am confident on will see how necessary it is, that there should be no relaxation in our exertions, mail 1 shall be enabled, in conjunction with his Majesty's Allies, to complete thaze arrangements which may afford the pruvert of permanent peace and security of Europe. The Royal Assent was then . given to the Vote cf Credit, the As•ize Repeal, and several private Bills ; atter which the Prince Regent delivered the following most gracious Speech : Gentlemen of the horse of Comanms,--1 thank you for the very liber.A provision yon have made for the service of the present year. I deeply lament the continuance and increase of tho-e bortnens which the great military exertions of the present cam plign, combined with the heavy arrears remaining due for the expellees of the former war, have rendered indispensible, and which his Majesty's loyal subjects, from a conviction of their uecessity. have sustained with such exemplary fortitude and cheer fuloess. Von have seen, already however, the fruit of the exertions whickhave been made; and there can be no doubt that the best economy will be found to result from that policy which may enable us to bring the contest to the most speedy determination. My Lards and Gentlemeh,—The brilliant and rapid success of the Ansti not arms at the opening of the Campaign has led to the restoration of the kingdom of Naples to its ancient Sovereign, and to the deliverance of that important portion of !tidy from foreign iadoence and dominion. • I have further the satisfaction or ac auaintiog you, that the ant!mrity of his Most Christian Majesty has oven again ad.; tiom ledged in his Capital, to which his Majesty has himself rep lived. The restoration or peace between this country and the tinted States of America has been followed by a negocia. Lion fur a Commercial Treaty, w!;ich I have every reason to hope kill he terminated upon conditions calculated to cement the good understanding subsisting between the two couraties, cod equally beneficial to the intt.*•ts of both. I have great pleasure in arqoainting von, that the labours of the Congress at hula have been brouilit to a conclusion by the signature of a reaty, which, as the ratifications have not yet been exchanged. (mid lint lie communicated to you, but which I expect to be ena bled to isy before you when I next meet you in Parliament., I cannot release 3.0 n from your attendance wi'hnut a,.stiriog you, that it is in a great degree to the support which you have af flll.lh;ti me , that I ascribe the success of my earnest endeavours for the public welfare ; and on no occasion has that support been more important than in the course of the present SessiMi. Ili the farther prosecution of such measures as may be necessary to bring the guest contest in sluch we are enza;:ed to an hon o urable and `Okfactoty conclusion, I Abu!l rely with confidence on the expe r:enced zeal and steady loyalty of all classes of his Majesty's , Otiects ; mai they may depend on my efforts to improve our re mit ad ~ antages such Milliner as may best provide for the general tranquillity of Europe, and maintain the high character which this country enjoys among the nations of the world.

The Prince looked ►emarkably well ; their Royal Hi..litieteis the Dukee of York and Kent were by lies side•. There were but fe►v Peers pteseut ; but the number of Peeresses and other ladies W. 14 greater than we ever iecollect. The universal mourning, not more occasioned by court etiquette, than by the private grit fa which the late sanguinary though glorious battle ha% caused in almost• every family of rauk in the empire, gave to the fair asatmbl:►gr a melancholy but interesting aspect. HOITSE OF COMMONS. TUFSDIY, JULY 11. Vew writs were ordered fur the burungli of NeWeastle-ntitter-Line j in the room of Lord Gower, who had accepted the Chiltern dreds ; for the borough of Londonderry, in the room of Sir.

Mr. Rose presented the Report of the ?Meet Committee on Mad houses. On presenting this report, Mr. Rose said, no Gentle. pan could read it without perceiving the immediate necessity of some steps being adopted on this subject. There was no country on the face of the earth where persons deprived of their senses were so little protected by law. The confinement in many of the titi vate Mad-honses was much worse than confinement in any prism' iu the kingdom —The report was ordered to be pritoed. Mr. Rose then presented the Report from the C , .um.ittee on the state of the membeity in the metropolis, anti observed that the Report %%until prove, that though there were seine ehjects et ruLl charity in the metropolis appealing in the character of memfeants, yet the greater part were the worst of characters. The number of mendicants its the metropolis was 30000 and upwards, some of whom got inure thati any industrious mechanic could get. One beggar confessed to the Committee that he sometimes got SO,. per day : the average stme however, for each beggar, was about (is. The evil was, indeed, beyond any thing which he had conceited. The money which they thus obtained was -expended in the most objectionable manner. The number of beggars was be believed touch increased by the practice which existed in some parishes of farming oat their poor. This practice prevailed in WO parishes its the metropolis and its environs : they were farmed out at a low rate ; and the way in which several of the farmers made it answte their put post, was, by allowieg several of the paupers to go out to beg! The Right Hon. Gentleman then proceeded to advert ca several parts of the report, and he trusted Gentlemen would, during the recess, turn their minds to the subject, and come prepared ues.t, Session to propose some remedy.

Sir, it is not on any consideration of p+i sate friendship—it is not on any contemplation of his many vir tues as a private individual--it is on the reflection of the great space which lie occupied in this House—it is on the recollection of his splendid abilities—it is on the conviction which we who thought with him on political subjects entertain of the advantage which the country derived trout his exertions, that I found my excuse for this address—that I even claim the concurrence of all those who hear me in the feelings which agitate me at the present moment—(hear, hear, hear!)--I am well aware, Sir, that a great nuijolity of this I louse thought his opiiiimes erroneous. speak it with conti dence—l am sure that there is no one of his political cpponents who will not lay his Mold on his heart and say thic he always f o und in him a manly antagonist—( b ear, hear, hear!}—The House et Corn -1110115 will 1 am persuaded ever do justice to the good intentions of •those who huuestly dissent from the sentiments of the zhajntity. ;9,k 4 104101N P 1 4%. , -.“ , 401.0 61 4%
