Address of Thanks for His Majesty’s Speech from the Throne; 
and for the Communication of the Declaration, and the 
other Papers wepetieg the Negotiation with France: And, 
to assure His Majesty, that we shall not fail to apply our- 
selves with the utmost Diligence and Attention to the Con- 
sideration of the Measures which the present Crisis requires ; 
but we cannot refrain from expressing, at the earliest Mo- 
ment, our firm Determination, to afford His Majesty the 
most effectual Supportin resisting every unwarrantable Pre- 
tension, and chathing every Attempt dictated by inordinate 
Ambition, on the Part of those with whom he has to con- 
tend: That we enteitain a firm Persuasion, that all His 
Majesty’s faithful Subjects feel, as they ought, the Value of 
the Blessings which they are struggling to preserve, and will 
not failin every Situation to support His Majesty,in Defence 
of their essential Lutereata, with the Zeal, Magnanimity, and 
Courage worthy of a great and free People. That we must, 
at the present Moment, observe, with peculiar Satisfaction, 
the Proofs afforded of our Means and internal Resources, in 
the flourishing State of the Revenue, Industry, and Coin- 
merce of the Country: That we acknowledge, with the 
utmost Gratitude, the Riese which His Majesty expresses of 
the Public Spirit which has been so eminently displayed by 
His People, and of the Conduct of His Troops of every De- 
scription, which has justly entitled them to the additional 
Esteem and Admiration of their Country: And, we heartily 
congratulate His Majesty on the signal and decisive Victory 
with which Providence has rewarded the Exertions of His 
Fleet under the Command of Admiral Lord Duncan ; an 
Event which has crowned the repeated Maritime Successes 
obtained over all our Enemies, and has indeed, afforded a 
brilliant Addition to the numerous and heroic Exploits 
which, in the Course of the present War, have raised tothe 
highest Pitch the Naval Glory of the Country: It will af- 
ford us gieat Satisfaction to find that any Branches of our 

Expence will admit of Reduction consistently with the Conti- 
nuance of those vigorous Efforts which must be necessary 
for our Safety, and which, at all events, cannot fail to be at- 
tended with heavy Expence: In considering what may be 
the best Modé of defraying it, we shall undoubtedly bear in 
Mind the Nature of the present Crisis, and in estimating 
the Value of any temporary Sacrifices, we shall not lose Sight 
of the infinite Importance of supporting effectually our 
Public Credit, and of convincing the Enemy that, while we 











join it His Majesty’s anxious Desire for the Conclusion of 
Peace on safe and honourable Terms, we possess the Means, 
as wellas the Determination, to support with Vigour this 
arduous Contest, as long as it may be rendered necessary for 
maintaining the Safety, Honour, and Independence of these

Kingdoms: To beseech His Majesty to believe that our 
Loyalty and Attachment to His Majesty, and our anxious 
Regard for the Interests of His Subjects, will ensure our 
Perseverance in that Line of Conduct which may best pre- 
serve the Advantages resulting to His People from His aus- 
picious Government: That the Blessings which we derive 
from our Civil and Religious Establishments have long been 
-deeply imprinted on our Minds; but we cannot but feel 
moreand more, from the Events of every Day, how much 
they distinguish us among all the Nations of Europe ; and, 
we shall never be cnmindfal that they can only be preserved 
by inculcating and enforcing a due Reference and Obedience 
to the Laws, by repressing with Promptitude every Attempt 
to disturb our internal Tranquillity, and by maintaining in- 
violate that happy Constitution which we inherit from 
our Ancestois, on which the Security and Happiness of 
every Class of His Majesty’s Subjects essentially depend ; re-
