Admiral Sir Hyde Parker arrived in

after the ftanding toafts, having given the 
health of Mr. Fox, it was drank with 
enthufiafm. Mr. Fox then arefe and ob- 
ferved, that fome changes had taken place 
fince he had the honour to addrefs them, 
and that he in confequence, attended in 
Parliament; yet he found that change did 
not extend to the Houfe of Commons, 
and that his exertions there, would ayail 
nothing. He trufted the Whig Club,. 
whofe confidence he was fo long honoured 
with, would rely on his exertions when: 
an opportunity fhould be found to render 
his abilities of utility to the public.. He 
then adverted to an exnreffion made ufe of 
by a monarch about a century ago, in 
which, though ridiculous it was thought,’ 
there feemed to be truth, ** That he would 
fend his jack-boot to the Senate, and it 
fhould be obeyed.”? He concluded with 
obferving, that we may come to a fitua- 
tion in which the King may not only rule’ 
us by his jack-boot, but we may be go- 
verned by his jack-boot’s jack-boot. | 
(burfts of applaufe.) Mr. Fox then gave 
‘<a fpeedy Peace with the French Repub- 
lic ;°’ after which, the healths of fome 
Noblemen and Gentlemen being drank, 
the company retired, ;
