THE REGENT’S MESSAGE. 
GP: BR: May 22. 
- H’ Royal Highness the 
Prince Regent, acting in 
the name and on the behalf of his 
Majesty, thinks it right to inform 
his faithful Commons, that in con- 
sequence of events which have re- 
cently taken place in France, in 
direct contravention of the treaty 
entered into at Paris last year for 
preserving the peace of Europe, 
he has judged it necessary to enter 
into engagements with his Allies, 
to adopt such steps as circum- 
stances may require against the 
common enemy, and for prevent- 
ing the revival of measures which 
could only have for their object to 
destroy the peace and liberties of 
Europe; and his royal Highness 
confidently relies upon the House 
of Commons to support him in 
such steps as he may find it ne- 
cessary to take, in conjunction 
with his Allies, at this momentous 
Crisis. 
‘¢ His Royal Highness has given 
orders that copies of the treaties 
into which he has entered with the 
Allies should immediately be laid 
before the House, for its informa- 
tion.”

The Prince Regent, acting in 
the name and on the behalf of his 
Majesty, having taken into his 
serious consideration the signal 
and splendid victory gained by the 
army under the command of the 
Duke of Wellington, on the 18th 
of June instant, over the French 
army under the command of 
Buonaparte in person, which has 
added fresh renown to the British 
arms, and contributed largely to 
the independence of Europe, re- 
commends to the House of Lords 
to concur in such measures as may 
be necessary to afford a further 
proof of the sense entertained 
by Parliament of the Duke of 
Wellington’stranscendant services, 
and of the gratitude and munifi- 
cence of the British nation.”

“The Prince Regent acting in 
the name and on the behalf of his 
Majesty, thinks it proper to ac- 
quaint the House of Commons, 
that a marriage, to which his 
Royal Highness duly gave his con- 
sent, has been solemnized between 
his Royal brother the Duke of 
Cumberland and the daughter of 
the reigning Duke of Mecklen- 
burgh, neice to her Majesty, and 
relict of the Prince of Salm; and 
from the proofs of attachment 
which the House of Commons 
have always manifested tae
