for the purpose in the House of Lords, the Commons also being in attendance, the King delivered the following speech: My Lords, and Gentlemen, "I have taken the earliest occasion of assembling you here, after having recur. red to the sense of my people. "In meeting you personally, for the first time since the death of my beloved Father, I am anxious to assure you that I shall always continue to imitate his great example in unceasing attention to the public interests, and in paternal solicitude for the welfare and happiness of all classes of my subjects. "I have received from Foreign Powers renewed assurances of their friendly disposition, and of their earnest desire to culti. vate with me the relations of peace and amity. "Gentlemen of the House of Commons, "The estimates for the present year will be laid before you. "They have been framed upon principles of strict economy; but it is to me a matter of the deepest regret that the state of the country has not allowed me to dispense with those additions to our military force which I announced at the commencement of last Session of Parliament. "The first object to which your attention will be directed is the provision to be made for the support of the Civil Government, and of the honour and dignity of the Crown. "I leave entirely at your disposal my interest in the hereditary revenues; and I cannot deny myself the gratification of declaring, that, so far from desiring any arrangement which might lead to the imposition of new burthens upon my people, or even might diminish, on my account, the amount of the reductions incident to my accession to the Throne, I can have no wish, under circumstances like the present, that any addition whatever should be made to the settlement adopted by Parliament in the year 1816. "My Lords, and Gentlemen, "Deeply as I regret that the machinations and designs of the disaffected should have led, in some parts of the country, to acts of open violence and insurrection, I cannot but express my satisfaction at the promptitude with which these attempts have been suppressed by the vigilance and activity of the magistrates, and by the zealous co-operation of all those of my subjects whose exertions have been called forth to support the authority of the laws. "The wisdom and firmness manifested by the late Parliament, and the due execution of the laws, have greatly contributed to restore confidence throughout the kingdom; and to discountenance those principles of sedition and irreligion which had been disseminated with such malignant perseverance, and had poisoned the minds of the ignorant and unwary. "I rely upon the continued support of Parliament in my determination to maintain, by all the means entrusted to my hands, the public safety and tranquillity. 66 Deploring, as we all must, the distress which still unhappily prevails among many of the labouring classes of the community, and anxiously looking forward to its removal or mitigation, it is in the mean time our common duty, effectually to protect the loyal, the peaceable, and the industrious, against those practices of turbu lence and intimidation, by which the period of relief can only be deferred, and by which the pressure of the distress has been incalculably aggravated. "I trust that an awakened sense of the dangers which they have incurred, and of the arts which have been employed to se duce them, will bring back by far the greater part of those who have been unhappily led astray, and will revive in them that spirit of loyalty, that due submission to the laws, and that attachment to the constitution, which subsist unabated in the hearts of the great body of the people, and which, under the blessing of divine Providence, have secured to the British Nation the enjoyment of a larger share of practical freedom, as well as of prosperity and happiness, than have fallen to the lot of any nation in the world." The Address in answer to the Speech was moved in the House of Lords by Lord Granville, formerly Lord Leveson Gower, and was seconded by Lord Howard of Effingham. It was, as is customary on all such occasions, a mere echo of the Speech, and consequently afforded nothing which any of the Opposition Lords felt themselves justified in particularly opposing. Lord Holland declared, however, that he could not agree to that part which praised the wis dom and firmness of the late Parliament and its late measures, and he believed that the late Restrictive Acts had had no share in tranquillizing the country; but that, on the contrary, he was of opinion, they had been productive of much evil. The Marquis of Lansdowne hoped that the magnanimous example of the Sovereign, in giving up his hereditary revenues to the disposal of Parliament, would be duly appreciated by the country, and followed on the part of his Majesty's Ministers by the strictest attention to economy. He expres sed a hope that trade would be relieved by an abolition of some of the present heavy prohibitory duties. The Earl of Liverpool said, his opinions on that subject were well known to many eminent men in trade; but for the present he was only anxious that nothing he might say should lead any one to embark in imprudent speculations. He assured the House that his Majesty's example would induce Ministers to apply themselves to every means of pru- mately carried nem. diss. In the House of Commons the Address was moved by Sir E. Knatchbull, and seconded by Mr Wilmot, and was unanimously agreed to, after a few words from Mr Tierney and Sir F. Burdett, who guard ed themselves against being considered as pledged, by their votes on this occasion, to approve of such measures, in reference to some of the topics of the Address, as might be in the contemplation of his Majesty's Ministers. There was a fuller attendance of Members than usual on the first day of a Session. Lord Castlereagh was not in the House. NEW HOUSE OF COMMONS. MEMBERS FOR ENGLAND AND WALES.
