PRAYERS.

The Lord Cowper reported from the Lords Committees appointed to draw an Address, to be presented to Her Majesty, pursuant to the Order of this House Yesterday,

Address to thank the Queen for Her good Offices in Favour of the Catalans, and to pray Her Majesty to continue Her Interposition for them:

That they had drawn an Address accordingly, as follows; (videlicet,)

"We, your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal Subjects, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, having taken into Consideration the several Papers Your Majesty was most graciously pleased to order to be laid before this House, in Pursuance of our humble Address of the Seventeenth Day of March last, "That Your Majesty would be pleased to order an Account to be laid before this House, of what Endeavours had been used, that the Catalans might have the full Enjoyment of their ancient Liberties and Privileges; did, with the utmost Thankfulness to Your Majesty, and Satisfaction to ourselves, observe the repeated and earnest Endeavours of Your Majesty, for preserving to the Catalans the full Enjoyment of all their just and ancient Liberties; and that, although it appears, by the Treaty of Peace with Spain, that the King of Spain has hitherto not been induced to agree with Your Majesty's Interposition in their Behalf; but insists that they shall come under the Condition of His Subjects of Castile, there is yet Room for Your Majesty's further Interposition, for securing to that People those Liberties, which cannot but be very valuable to them. We do therefore make it our most humble and earnest Request to Your Majesty, that Your Majesty would be graciously pleased to continue Your Interposition, in the most pressing Manner, that the Catalans may have the full Enjoyment of their just and ancient Privileges continued to them."

Which Address, being read by the Clerk entire, was afterwards read, and agreed to, Paragraph by Paragraph.

Address to be presented.

Ordered, That the said Address be presented to Her Majesty by the Lords with White Staves.

Adjourn.

Dominus Cancellarius declaravit præsens Parliamentum continuandum esse usque ad et in diem Lunæ, quintum diem instantis Aprilis, hora duodecima, Dominis sic decernentibus.
