LORD R RDESDILE did pot feel his objections to the meniare in any degree removed by what had fallen from the Noble Se. cretary of State. Looking at the eircumstauces in a hid' it ad and under which it was persevered iu, he considered it as the first step to a series of innovations a kieh might lead Iss the destruction of our present admirable Constitution, and the erection of a Republican Clovernment on its ruins.

Though it did not g o the length of the original measure, he was grateful to Ministers for the part which they took upon this occasion. !le hailed it ns a victory and triumph over that faction of secret influence which had pervaded the whole of the present reigp, and perpetually stept in to intercept and blast the hopes and a ishes of the pro. ple. There was not an administration for the last forty yeaes but had some time or other felt the force of this secret influence, and the present, or any other miisistry, should have his zealous assistance in counteracting it. The question was put and tarried without a division; and tho Bill au, accordingly read a second time.—Adjourned, WEDNESDAY, MAY 11.

Pcesevair inoiernie order of the day for taking into consideration his Majesty's Message re , pecting the Duchess of Brunswick. The language of that communication was such DA to leave him very little to say on the present occasion. Their Lordships were acquainted with the unfortunate circumstances which compelled her Royal Highness to seek an asylum in this country. The high character and merits of her illostlions hus band were ;kW) too well known to them,44) require any observa tion from him. The cause in which he had lost his life might, under the circumstances of the times, he properly considered as the cause of this country. This consideration, as well as that, of consanguinity, weighed with his Nlajesty in his desire to make a suitable provision for the declitting yeyrs of her !loyal ncss. His Lurdship concluded with moving an Address, assar ing his Majesty of the disposition of that :louse to concur in promotiog the object of the Message. Loan L4VDERD.4I.E paid it would have been as well if the Noble Secretary of State, in recommending the ohject of the message, had abstained from adverting to any other consideration than that the Duchess of Brunswick was his Majesty's sister. I That was the only ground on which lie could assent to the Ad dress; fur if the /louse ua ere to act on the principle that she has to he provided for because she was the widow of a foreign, Prince who had been stripped of his territories, such a prece dent might in the present situation of Europe, go the length of entailing the most serious hurthens on the people of this country. With respect to the Duke of Brunswick, there was a very con sitierable difference of opinion as to the Merit; of his conduct during the latter period of his life. It could not be admitted that Prussia, at the time the Duke received his f4tal wound. was fighting the battles of this country ; on the contrary, she was , then in actual hostility to us. The allowance to he proposed for the Duchess was 10,0001. •, hut it should he recolleeted, that she had a pension on the Irish establishment, and enjoyed, be sides' the interest of her dowry, which was severed in tram iu :this country. Ile alluded to these particulars, n o t for the pur pose of ohjerting to the intended provision as too large, but for the purpo-e of stating that'if it was not so, the allowance to the , Princesses was too small. The Duchevt, who was the 'daughter of the Prince of Wales, would have LI or 15,000/. year, while fl+e danghters of a Sovereign would have only 30,0001. n-year among. them.
