LORD THURLOW'S REPLY TO THE DUKE OF GRAFTON.

The Duke had (in the House of Lords) reproached Lord Thurlow with his plebian extraction, and his recent admission to the peerage. Lord Thurlow rose from the woolsack, and advanced slowly to the place from which the Chancellor addresses the house, then fixing his eye upon the Duke, spoke as follows.

7 My | Lords, 7 | 7 7 | I am a- | mazed, | 7 7 | yes my | Lords, 7 | I am a- | mazed at his | Grace's |

speech. | 7 7 7 7 7 The noble | duke | cannot | look be- | fore him, | 7 be- | hind him, | 7 or on | either | side of him, | 7 with- | out 7 | seeing | some 7 | noble | peer, 7 | 7 who | owes his | seat 7 | 7 in this | house | 7 to his successful ex- | ertions, | 7 in the pro- | fession | 7 to which 7 | I be- | long. 7 | 77 | 7 7 | Does he not feel 7 that it is as honorable | 7 to | owe it to these, | 7 as to ❘ being the | accident | 7 of an | accident? | 77 | 77 | 7 To | all these | noble | Lords, 7 | 7 the language of the | noble | Duke 7 | is as | applicable | and as in- | sulting | 7 as it is to my- | self. 7 | 7 7 7 7 | But I do not | fear 7 | 7 to meet it | single | 7 and a- | lone. 7 | 77 | 7 7 | No one | venerates the peerage | more than | I do. | 7 7 | But my Lords, 7 | 7 I | must 7 | say 7 | 7 that the | peerage | 7 so- | licited | me, | 77 | 7 not | I | 7 the | peerage. | 77 | 7 7 |

Nay 7 more, | 77 | 7 I | can and will 7 | say, 7 77 that as a | peer of | parliament, | 77 | 7 as | speaker | 7 of this | right | honorable | house, | 7 7 | 7 as | keeper of the | great 7 | seal, 7 | 7 7 | 7 as | guardian | 7 of his | majesty's | conscience, | 77 | 7 as | Lord high | Chancellor of England, | 7 7 | nay, 7 | even in that character | 7 a- | lone, | 7 in which the | noble | duke 7 | 7 would | think it an af- | front 7 | 7 to be con- | sidered, | 7 but | which character | none can de- | ny 7 | me, 7 | 7 7 | as a | MAN, 7|71 | am at this moment | as res- pectable; | 77 | 7 I | beg 7 | leave to add, 7 | 7 as | much re- | spected, | 7 as the proudest | peer 77 I now | look | down upon. 7 | 77 | 77 |

TRIBUTE OF MR. BURKE TO THE ENTERPRISING SPIRIT OF THE NEW-ENGLAND COLONISTS.

As to the wealth, 7 | Mr. | Speaker, | which the | colonies | 7 have drawn from the sea | 7 by their | fisheries, | 7 7 | you had | all | that | matter | fully | opened | 7 at your | bar. 7 | 77 | 77 | 7 You | surely | thought those acqui- | sitions | 7 of | value, | 7 7 | for they seemed even to ex- | cite your envy; | 77 | | 7 and yet 7 | 7 the | spirit | 7 by | which that | enter- | prising employment | 7 has been | exercised, | 7 7 ought | rather, | 7 in | my o- | pinion, | 7 to have raised your esteem and | admi- | ration. | 77 | 77 | | 7 And | pray, Sir, | what in the | world 7 | 7 is | equal to it? | 7 7 7 7 | Pass | by the | other | parts, 7 | 7

and | look at the manner | 7 in | which the

| New England | have of | late | carried the whale | fishery. | 77 | 7 7 |
