Poll Bill.

THE Lord Valentia reports the Effect of the Conference had last Night with the Lords, upon their Amendments to the Bill for supplying the Defects of the Poll Bill:

That their Lordships delivered their former Proviso, with some Alteration; being, with the Alteration, as followeth:

"Provided always, and be it Enacted, That this Act, or any thing therein contained, shall not extend to any Peer of this Realm, in point of Assessment, Imprisonment, Distress, or otherwise; Provision being made, in the said first recited Act, for the Assessing of the said Peers, by certain Peers who are therein named and appointed in that Behalf. And be it further Enacted, That the Lord Chancellor, Lord Treasurer, the Lord Steward of his Majesty's Houshold, Lord Chamberlain of his Majesty's Houshold, the Earl of Northampton, Lord Howard of Charlton, the Lord Roberts, the Lord Grey of Warke, the Lord Craven, the Lord Mohun, and the Lord Hatton, be added to the Peers named in the said first recited Act for the Assessing of the Peers, according to the said recited Act:"

And so these Words were struck out by the Lords from the Proviso, as it first came down; viz.

* * * *

The Committee insisting upon it, that there was no Obligation on the Lords Commissioners for the Peers to assess the Peers; they returned into their House: And after, delivered an Addition to the said Proviso, in Paper, as followeth:

"Which said Lords Commissioners, or any Five of them, in this and the former Act named, shall have Power to assess, levy, and collect, all such Sums of Money as shall be assessed, according to the Tenor of this and the former Act, upon such Peers who have not paid proportionably to their Estates:

So, with that Addition, they adhered as formerly; expressing themselves sorry that there having been hitherto so good a Correspondence betwixt the Houses, they should be now suspected, in this House; taking notice, that, in the late Times of Misery, they suffered as much as any; and hope nothing shall be done to the Prejudice of their Privileges; adding, that they hope they shall be ready to strain themselves as far as this House.

Resolved, That this House doth agree to this Proviso, with the Amendments.

Resolved, That this House doth agree to all the other Amendments to this Bill, which were sent from the Lords, and in which this House did formerly adhere.

Ditto.

Resolved, That Sir John Holland be desired to go to the Lords, and acquaint them, that this House doth concur with their Lordships, in the Amendments to the Bill for supplying the Defects to the Poll Bill, as they were delivered at the last Conference; and to put their Lordships in mind of the Bill for encouraging the Fishing Trade.

The Proviso, from the Lords, to the Bill for Seventy thousand Pounds, was read; being as followeth:

Mr. Speaker,

The King hath commanded me to call you, and the rest of the Members of this House, presently to him into the House of Lords.

The Speaker, and the rest of the Members of this House accompanying him, went to the Lords House accordingly; Mr. Speaker carrying with him the Bills following, (being passed both Houses); viz. The Bill for Six Months Assessments: The Bill for raising Seventy thousand Pounds for further Supply of his Majesty: The Bill for levying the Arrears of Assessments: The Bill for establishing the Post Office: The Bill for Wine Licences; and, The Bill for supplying the Defects of the Poll Bill.

Royal Assent to Bills.

Mr. Speaker, and the Members of this House, being come into the House of Peers, and his Majesty seating himself in his Royal Chair of State, Mr. Speaker, after an eloquent Oration, presented the Bills by him carried up. To which, with some others, his Majesty gave his Royal Assent: And, after that, was pleased to make a gracious Speech to both Houses of Parliament, there assembled, to the Tenor following; viz.

My Lords and Gentlemen,

The King's Speech.

"I WILL not entertain you with a long Discourse; the Sum of all I have to say to you being but to give you Thanks, very hearty Thanks: And, I assure you, I find it a very difficult Work to satisfy Myself in my own Expressions of those Thanks, perfunctory Thanks. Ordinary Thanks for ordinary Civilities are easily given; but when the Heart is as full as Mine is, it is a Labour to thank you. You have taken great Pains to oblige Me; and therefore it cannot be easy for Me to express the Sense I have of it."

"I will enlarge no further to you, on this Occasion, than to tell you, that, when God brought me hither, I brought with me an extraordinary Affection and Esteem for Parliaments. I need not tell you, how much it is improved by your Carriage towards Me. You have outdone all the good and obliging Acts of your Predecessors towards the Crown; And, therefore, you cannot but believe my heart is exceedingly enlarged with the Acknowledgment. Many former Parliaments have had particular Denominations, from what they have done; they have been styled Learned, and Unlearned; and sometimes have had worse Epithets: I pray let us all resolve, that this be for ever called The Healing and the Blessed Parliament."

"As I thank you, though not enough, for what you have done; so I have not the least doubt, (by the Blessing of God) but, when I shall call the next Parliament, (which I shall do as soon as you can reasonably expect or desire) I shall receive your Thanks, for what I have done since I parted with you: For I deal truly with you, I shall not more propose any one Rule to myself, in My Actions and My Councils, than this; What is a Parliament like to think of This Action, or This Council? And it shall be want of Understanding in Me, if it will not bear That Test."

"I shall conclude with This, which I cannot say too often, nor you too often where you go, That, next to the miraculous Blessing of God Almighty, and, indeed, as an immediate Effect of that Blessing; I do impute the good Disposition and Security we are all in, to the happy Act of Indemnity and Oblivion: That is the principal Cornerstone which supports this excellent Building; That creates Kindness in us to each other, and Confidence in our joint and common Security. You may be sure, I will not only observe it religiously and inviolably Myself, but also exact the Observation of it from others. And, if any Person should ever have the boldness to attempt to persuade Me to the contrary, he will find such an Acceptation from Me, as He would have who should persuade Me to burn Magna Charta cancel all the old Laws, and to erect a new Government after Mine own Invention and Appetite."

"There are many other Particulars which I will not trust My own Memory with, but will require the Chancellor to say the rest to you."

Ld. Chancellor's Speech.

After which the Lord Chancellor made an eloquent Oration to both Houses; and concluded it thus;

Parliament dissolved.

"I have no more to add, but the Words of Custom; That the King declares this present Parliament to be dissolved: And this present Parliament is dissolved."

Excise.

A REPORT was presented to the House on the 18th Day of December Instant, by Colonel Birch: Which is here entered; and is as followeth:

"At the Committee, to whom the Bill for Excise was referred;"

"Ordered, That Colonel Birch do report the Bill for Foreign and Inland Excise."

Excise.

"Ordered, That Colonel Birch do likewise report a List of Debts, charged by this Parliament, and yet unsatisfied, to be inserted in the said Bill; that is to say, Upon One Ordinance of Parliament, dated the Thirteenth Day of May 1647; the several Sums following:" viz.
