Pàgina 194 - The consequence of letting loose the passions at present chained and confined, would be to produce a scene of desolation which no man can contemplate without horror; and I should not sleep easy on my couch, if I were conscious that I had contributed to precipitate it by a single moment. This...
Pàgina 195 - We go to Portugal, not to rule, not to dictate, not to prescribe constitutions— but to defend and preserve the independence of an ally. We go to plant the standard of England on the wellknown heights of Lisbon. Where that standard is planted, foreign dominion shall not come.

Pàgina 199 - Sir, — is the Spain of the present day the Spain of which the statesmen of the times of William and Anne were so much afraid? Is it indeed the nation whose puissance was expected to shake England from her sphere ? No, Sir, it was quite another Spain — it was the Spain, within the limits of whose empire the sun never set— it was Spain "with the Indies" that excited the jealousies and alarmed the imaginations of our ancestors.
Pàgina 127 - for the appointment of a committee to inquire into the state of representation in Parliament, and to report to the House their observations thereon.
Pàgina 3 - They have been framed with an anxious desire to avoid every expenditure beyond what the necessary demands for the public service may require. " His Majesty has the satisfaction of informing you, that the produce of the Revenue in the last year, has fully justified the expectations entertained at the commencement of it. " My Lords and Gentlemen, " His Majesty deeply laments the injurious effects which the late pecuniary crisis must have entailed upon many branches of the commerce and manufactures...
Pàgina 189 - What feelings of national honor would forbid, is forbidden alike by the plain dictates of national faith. It is not at distant periods of history, and in by-gone ages only, that the traces of the union between Great Britain and Portugal are to be found. In the last compact of modern Europe, the compact which forms the basis of its present international law — I mean the treaty of Vienna of 1815, — this country, with its eyes open to the possible inconveniences of the connection, but with a memory...
