PARLIAMENTARY MEASURES.
A.D. 1814
The legislative measures of parliament, when it met in the month of March, are of little historical importance. The budget was laid before the commons on the 30th of July, and the whole amount of supplies exceeded £75,600,000. The session was closed on the 30th of July by the prince regent in person. Nor did the autumnal session present any matter of historical interest. It was opened on the 8th of November by a speech again delivered by the regent in person, and on the 2nd of December the houses adjourned till the 9th of February, 1815. But in the meantime events of the greatest importance took place on the continent which demand attention.
