7os was more desperate than could well be conceived ; and the last battle, of more importance than all the others, would seen, to have rendered it hope:ess. That, indeed, had confirmed the deliverance of Europe from . slavery. (Hear, hear.) But it ought not to be forgotten, that much was due to the generous and magnanimous re solution of England, who had not contemplated coolly the state of the Continent, but had lent her active and efficient aid. The hi,,:hest tribute of admiration was. dne -to. the Emperor Alexander, who, after hat ing rescued Isis own country from wanton aggression, • had paired his armies into Germany to give deliverance to Europe. The condect of the Crown Prince of Sweden was also entitled to the greatest praise. He had gained the eulugium of Europe, and what was no less laittotauble, the hostility and abuse of the enemy. Nur should that hero he omitted (Gen. Moreau) who lived and fought fur the li berty of France, and died for the freedom of Europe. it we looked to S h inn, things appeared equally favourable, owing to the victory of Vit tot ia, the fall of St. Sebastian, and the exertions of the three nations so cordi •Ily co-opriating for the common cause. Some, at one time, had doubted of theyalour of the Portnenese, and of the zeal and cordiality of the Thine doubts had been dissipated by facts. The hi va.itai of France by the forces of the three nations, must operate 15 a powerful diversion ill Germany, and leach the natives of the former country thstt all their conscriptions could nut protect from invasion the sacred territory. With rirard to Awe' ice, he must deeply lament, that the only Republic in the world should have joined with the despot alpinist the liberties of mankind (Hear ! hear!) Happily, however, her ed;.rts had been frustrated, and Canada had been completely pro. tected by the loy•iity of its inhabitants and the brasery of its troops. Though ,America had hitherto Shut her eyes, yet it was to be hoped that the aneihtlattun of her commerce. and the defeat of her armies, would . at 1 .silth open them to a sense of her true interests, and teach her the folly of a war, as unjust in its principle as it hod been fruitless in its re sult. At home ever:. thing afforded ground for satisfaction : the harvest had been abundant, industry was as in at work, the loran and the shut tle in motion, and peace mid tranquillity were restored in those places which had formerly been the scenes of riot and disoider. Had the late . Minister (Mr. I'erceval) been spared to his country. how must he have exulted at such an issue to his counsels,—those counsels which had pro duced " peace in our streets, and prosperity within out palaces !" The Noble Lord concluded by moving an Address, which, as usual, re capitulafrd and re echoed the leading sentiments of the speech. Mr. C. Go et-, in it speech of considerable ability, seconded the Ad dress, and coucholtd by remarking, in allusion to the moths'', of this country, that Ito: • the gale of adversitt was passed away. the surround ing nations would behold in the sunshine the vessel which stood alone lo the midst of the wreck in the undiminished majesty of her charac ter. The world hatflong seen how great was the power that was con solidated in oppression, and it would now sue what inexhauitible power. was consolidated in justice. Mr. Wit tutu E did not rise to disturb the general unanimity, but rather to add his cordial approbation to the sentiments of tt.c Speech delivered by the Prince Regent. He did not expect to see in it a spitit so free from ostentation ; lie was pleased with its moderation of manner anti toile. bat it would be unmanly and inconsi!tent with his avowtd principles, as well as with, his utmost deep conviction, if lie did rot re rim k upon that as,ertion, that the deliverance of Europe was owing , to the following up the system laid down by Mr. Pitt ; as to hints, If, he was unaltt•robly persuaded, that if the counsels of Mr. Fox had been adopted, Europe would never have been plungfd intro the sea at troll tiles which Itad for Nears overe Imbued it ; nor would it have required the carnage of the last campaign for its deliverance. There was an other topic. on which lie would nut dwell, it was the inconsistency into hicli the Mover and Seconder bad fallen, in their praise of the unfor innate General Meteau. If. indeed, us had been by them asserted, that (treat Grit-,AI had forint:lly foin;lit for the cause of liberty, then bad England fonglit ntainst it. If Bernadotte, whom no one could be mote ready to praise than himself, had formerly !Might for liberty, then had Great Britain fought against that liberty. lie once credit to the present Administration. and heartily joined with the Lord, in wishing that the great Character who had been snatched from them by ti me foul blow 411 all masas sin, h a d lived to participate in these triumphs. (Hear ! hear !) %Volt that p:irt of the Sl a which related to Ame rica he ditiewil ; but it was a matter of minor importance, and not sufficient to jusiity any ooposition. He was glad to observe. that the great subject of peace bad been intrnduced ; and to hear it asserted, that time honour of France would not be o ueited : lie hoped that the same feeling pervaded our :Ilia. The present %sus, indeed, an alliance which he approved it. differed from all other.elliatives, as it had been raised hy necessity, and not purchased by motley. lie did not know, trout any inftirmation, what terms atf peace were proposed by the Allies at the time of tl:c Armistice; but it was to be hoped, tl•nt the same conditions would now be otettd. (Sinue murmariog.) ae meant to • a THE NATIONAL. REGISTER. - • I% say, that unless !he - basis then proposed were now to be acted upon, h• could not see what conclusion could ever be put to the present *ate of war. As to the subject of supplies there ought to be nu limit, except the power and practibility of the country ; but - there was one subject of domestic policy, which he had hoped to be introduced in the Speech, and which it pained him to see omitted. lie had hoped that same re. commendation would have been presented to Parliament, as to the ad mission of a great body of their fellow-subjects into equal rights and privileges. He had hoped this the more, on account of a speech which had been attributed to the Speaker, as delivered at the bar of the House of Lords. With regard to the Ministry, lie would not wish any change except tc. strengthen *heir inclinations on the subject of the Catholics ; as to all else he wished to see them remain to complete their echierments in that style of moderation which designated the Speech of the Regent ---a moderation which would be the surest method of procuring a sale and honourable peace. The SPEAKER said, whenever the question came before them, he had ho doubt but that he,should be able to show that he was perfectly justified in acting as lie had done. Aries a few words from Mr. WYNNT, the Address was agreed to nem. can. Lord CAsmtaxann gave notice. that on Monday next, lie should move the Thanks of the House to the Marquis of Wellington and his brave army. Lord MORPETIT also gave notice of a motion after the Christmas re , cess, on the subject of the Speaker's address in the Lads at the close of the last Session.—Adjouriwd. FRIDAY, NO'. EMBER The SPEAKER acquainted the House, that lie had received a let ter from Lieut.-General Ahercromby, dated the 11th January last, acknowledging the receipt of the Speaker's communication, convey ing the Thanks of the House, unaiihnously voted to him, as ,well as to General Ward, and the o ffi cers and men under his command, for the conquest of the islands of France and Bourbon, commonly called the Mauritius. The answer • expressed the high sense which those Officers, Sm. entertained of the honour conferred on them. Sedeant ONSLOW stated, that in pursuance of his notice last Session, he would, on Tuesday the 30th instant, move, that as much of an Act, of the sth year of Elizabeth, be tepealed, as relates to the inflicting of penalties on persons who exercise any trade or pro fession, without having served thereto an apprenticeship of seven years. AUGMENTATION OF THE ARMY. Lord CASTLFREAGII gave notice, that on Thursday night he should bring forward a motion for augmenting the disposable torce of the country. Lord MILTON called upon his Lordship to give some explanation of the nature and extent of his plan ; but this was Lord COMPTON brought up the Report on the Address, which was read, and ordered to be presented to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent by the whole House. PRIVATE. BILLS. The SPEAKER gave the usual notice respecting the time for pre senting Private Petitions and Bills. The latter to be brought for. ward within fourteen days of the Meeting of Parliament ; and the former not to be received after Friday the lgth instant, and no reports thereon to be received after the 9th-of May. Adjourned till to-morrow, when the Home will go up witfi the Address to the Prince Regent. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6. Mr. HOME SUMNER gave notice that he should on Monday next (provided no other Member would do so), bring under the consider. atiou of the House, the subject alluded to by a Noble Lord (Mor peth) on a fornter night, namely, the Speaker's Speech to the Throne nt the close or the last Session, which he considered a mat. ter of such consequence as should be discussed without delay. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCIJECILER, the Prince Regent's Speech was taken into tiirtber consideration, and that part which related to the expenditure for the ensuing year was ordered to be referred to a Cmimittee of Supply on Mimday next.
