~. .: WM • .r. 7 it, . 1•.., .11 would be immediately enfotec4. f The Noble Lord had given this notice, at present, in order to; prevent any ambiguity from arising in future. • Lord LAUDERDALE thought that, if there were two Standing Orders on the same subject, not exactly consistent with each, other, the Nqble Lord who had started the objection ought, if the. House adopted the former of them, to Move for the suspension of thelatter. Lord HOLLAND sai4i - , that from the language which the Noble Lord had just used, every person would infer that the two orders were contradictory. Now they were not so: the- first order stated that their Lordships should simply ,say Content or Not content,. and so decide the question ; the other order stated that the Contents should stay in the House, whilst the Not-contents should go below the Bar. Lord LIVERPOOL was of opinion that there was no inconsistency in the orders. He stated what was the usual mode of voting in that House; but added there Was another, and more solemn mode, which was referred to in the order—namely, of putting the ques tion,not to the House collectively, but to each Mem ber of it individually. The LORD CHANCELLOR followed on the same side, after which the notice was entered. The House then adjourned. I.

Mt. AldeintatiWooU and Mr.MILLs had arrived in 5t..14 . mes's-square previous to the QUEEN'S arrival. The windows of Lord CAs-marteaciu * s house, nest door, were closely shut up, from the ground , floor to the attic. ..He r DPI AJEsyy was occupied throughout this import ant day—the eve of her momentous trial on a chargeinvolving everything that is dear to her honour—iiveheerfully performing the same consola tory task in which she has been engaged at intervals during so many preceding days; namely, in receiv ing the cordial and unequivocal proofs of the confi cl.mce and - attachment of is very large and respect able portion of his 'llarseve's subjects.

The Ladies were all in full dress; they were shewn first into the suite of rooms on the ground floor, and' afterwards Conducted into her MAJE:iTY'S presence drawing-yoom, -Which was crowded to excess. The following Address was then read to her MAJESTY : ' '• M.stoastWhilst tin:runt:4s and tens of tionainds of our fellaw.eubjects are approaching your Majesty with a:surances of homage and hffection = whilst Addresses even from the remoter Fart. of the kingdom are laid at yonr feet—permit us, your Ma le's neighbours, as elves, and the mistresses of styfamilies, in and tear the Metropolis, to approach you. " *We are unatcustomed to public acts, and uninfluenced by ply feelings; yet we cannot be excluded from offering to your Majesty's neriEU Fur sympathy and devotion. Grateful to the Constitution under Which It is our happiness to live—saved also by our rankeln the middle classes of society, from the dangers attendant on high. rank or poverty, and .protected by our hus: bands, we nay hardly be supposed judges of all the value of your Majesty . conduct ; ba s t, Madam, we admire your mag r.animity, and we adore that womanly feeling which has made your Majesty treat with contempt every offer, the tendency of uhich was to compromise ou' boneaw, *Ad - we trhuok . you for it in the nanse•ofvtu?,sex, • • , " Had your Majesty been treated with the respect due.to your exalted rank, our hearts would have throbbed with ardent in terest in your.setsee, and with love to your person ' • and, treeing to our husbands and , runs all public expression of feeling,. we should have coottitsi oars to our domestic circles; but Dew, Madam, the indignation we feet for the cruel treatmentrof your Majesty bursts every barrier between us,. ape we hasten to eA-.

" Madam, in simplicity of style, and sincerity of heart, we he r to subscribe ourselves " Nour Majesty's dutiful, affectionate, and loyal subjects and servants." Her MAJESTY was graciously pleased to return the following Answer: " In this honest and affectionate Address from my Female neighbours, who are wives and mothers of families in and near the Metropolis, I gratefully acknowledge the sympathy which they express for my many sorrows, and the indignation which they feel for my unnumbered wrongs. The approbation of my own sex must be ever dear to my heart ; and it must be more particularly gratifying when it is the approbation of Mothers of in and near this ministered Metropolis.

" Tile present procedure agaliwit me is Hie a wilful attempt on the part of blind frenzy or improvident malice to destroy the literal character of the monarchy.

The future is wiselreovered with an opaque cloud; but, whiteier may be my destiny, ,I will cherish in all vicissitudes, and Oteb serve in all fortunes, that resignation to the Divans will which, in proportion as it becomes an habitual sentiment of the mind; improves all its virtues, and elevates the general character." After the presentation her -MAJESTY conversed in, the most affable manner with several of the Ladies, who had the honour of kissing the QUEEN'S hand.— The Ladies then' returned to their carriages, and , drove off, accompanied by the reiterated cheers of the crowd, intermingled with shouts of " Long Hie Queen CAROLINE!" During these demonstrations Of affectionate attachment to the QVEEDT, her MAJLIITY,' attended by Mr. Alderman WOOD, made her appear.: ance at the drawing-room windows, and repeatedly ...1 acknowledged by her gestures the sense she enter tained of the kindnees she had experienced. StiOrtly after the Ladies' procession had retired, seven coaches, each drawn by four horses, arrived with the Deput ation bearing the Address of the Inhabitants of Greer*. with. The first coach contained the Officers of the VeAry, and behind it stood the Beadles carrying their maces. The second coach contained Bfr.VgitNvz an Mr. GILES, the mover and seconder of the Address; and the others contained some respectable inhabitants of Greenwich. They met with a most gracious re-. ception ; and her MAJESTY was pleased to return the following Answer : • " In this cordial, this friendly Address, the Inhabitants of Greenwich have strongly excited my sympathies, and interested my heart. In the most vivid manner they have recalled to my memory those times over which oblivion will never throw a veil* They have reminded me of those past days when I lived among them, when I visited liseir houses and traversed their fields, when I partook of their 'social festivities, and was united intheir sacred rites; when I was rendered happy by ministering to the wants of some, and by adding to the comforts of otheri; and, above all, when my heart was lifted to Gon in gratitude because my ears were cheered with the benedictions of the poor. This is that period which the kind-hearted inhabitants of Greenwich so powerfully recal to my recollection; nor can I ever be un mindful that it was a period in which I could behold that coun tenance which I never beheld withont vivid delight, and to hear that voice which to nay fiind earl was like music breathing over violets. Can I forget? •14 ; .nay'siml will never suffer me to forget that, when the cold remains.cd. this beloved object were deposited in the tomb, 'the malice of my persecutors would not t ei atal suffer even the name of the mother ..te hs . inscribeti upon .the coffin of her child.

The Noble Lord was recognised by persons among the crowd, and his name re-echoed with great applause. Her MAJESTY received the Address front Aylesbury with great satisfaction, and was pleased to return the following Answer : " The Inhabitants of the Borough of Aylesbury have my cordial thanks for this impressive testimony of their affectionate regard. Whatever may leave been the afflictions with which I have been visited by Paovroracz, I know my duty to Murat too well to murmur at any of its dispensations. The sorrows that are scattered over the surface of human life are usually transient, thOugh often recurring. They come .and go—they de part and return, like the wind and the rain ; but my sorrows en have not be f this kind. They have not merely Bitted over my nerves in the shades of the evening, to disappear when the East reddened with the dawn : they have been a long, a dark, an almost interminable night. which malice, like that of a fend, has thrown over my soul for a quarter of a century. But the I People of England think that I have been sulCiently tortiu'est by malignity and saddened by woe. 'Their vivid sympathies add their glowing affections begin to dissipate the thick darkness that covered my prospects, and to announce the day-spring of a life more serene, when my sirrabgs shall be redressed, and sny perse cutions come to an end. " Those persons Who could instigate or advise that the name 'of the Queen &bola, contrary to 111 usage, be. athwart in ode national prayers, must have had their hearts far from GOD.-.. &Cis an omission is 'at variance with that charity without - which. allopr adoration it mere mustMery, and.lll ourainsaneris rmg air. • Inluitlee of my enemies has be So iresti;and indeed !ianonstrous, that the account of it willlitireafthe be numbered anioyg toe prodigies in the anneal historg . of.man. - It is the COlL trepity of bubarlsin in an age of high ovinzatinsi.' Because I have violated -no law, a BID of Paint "and Penalties has been introduced into the House of Lords to destroy me without law. But the people of England have not minds of inert clay, or hearts of impenetrable stone. They know, they esm, they feet my un paralleled wrongs. Every man, every woman, nay, every child, alive to the sympathy they have inspired. Oppression always sanctifies its object. In this order of things the ALMIGIN27 has written his decree against cruelty and injustice." A . considerable crowd remained collected in front of her MAJESTY S restdence, in St. James'i-scptere, throughout the day and evening, and a thinther of coaches, filled by Ladies, passed in the eipectation of obtaining a transient glimpse of the object Of so much generous attachment. Such as were foitrinate enough to obtain a view of the QUEEN, upon the oni or two occasions when she made her appearanc the windows, appeared highly gratified. Those vrli were disappointed retired with mach evident chagiiip Some pickpockets, as usual, made repeated effortitit, create contusion in the crowd, but the licateral der meanpur of the 'people was orderly, and - amII I ,them were a number of persons of bot h seses - very respectable appearance: The Quite?, Main:: tained her wonted cheerfulness, and appeared' hi ally' pleased with• the deep interest expressed in her behalf by the numerous visitors she received in the course of the day. - . ,41t.,Iifi J. iZIS•3I!Mi If IT - TIVENINO STAR.

The Trial (if so it can be called) of her Majesty; QUEEN CAROLINE, has commenced. A ,•. As early as daybreak this morning, the note of prepa fation for this most momentous proceeding resounded Atroughout all the streets and avenues of Westminster immediately surrounding the House of Lords. Car. Venters had been busy all last night in erecting har liers across the different avenues to the House; ant Alt day-break this morning they resumed their labonrii which were scarcely completed before the hour ap lointed for the meeting of the House. The barrier across the principal entrance into Old 'Palaceayard, reaching from St. Margaret's Church on the, (me side, to the King's Bench Record-office on the other, with an opening in the middle suffi-, .. ciently wide to admit carriages to pass. was a double barrier, consisting of very massy pieces of timbir, well fised into the ground, and firmly bound toge ther; but strong as it was, it proved, as will be after wards seen, unequal to the resistance of the immense pressure directed against it. The other principal bar riers are across the bottom of Abingdon-street, and the entrance between St. Margaret's Church and ;Westminster Abbey. All the minor avenues, even Ow gate into the Park, "at the end of Great George -Street; are also closed up; and at the door by which their Lordships enter into the House of Lords, the iisite.,jandet the piazzas, to a considerable way on li side; is subdivided by barriers across, to pre ;; vent of nbitroction. • =', ' 1 • In 'addition to these precantioliary measures, as . the bout for - the tneeting of the House began to approach, a large body - of constables was placed . at- , lisc ,each of the avenues, and along the whole line of' approach in every direction. The superintendence of this civil force was in the able hands of Mr. Lee, the High Constable of Westminster, Who was on the spot, mounted on horseback, by eight o'clock.— The High Bailiff, Mr. MORRIS, was• also in attend- 1 tnce. The horse patrole, more uniformly clothed than mounted, mustered in Privy Gardens, and, ' along with a number of the patrole on foot, all armed, were appointed to promenade in Whitehall. —A large body of the second regiment of Horst Guards were stationed in Old Palace Yard ; and a troop of the City Light Horse occupied Pedlar's Acre, on the other side of the river; the second battalion of the second Regiment of Foot Guards, with a full band, playing *lively:tune, left the Kings Mews at. a quarter before nine o'clock, marched to the Horse Guards, and-formed on the Parade in the Park, where another battalion of the Regiment were al ready assembled. '''lie latter were afterwards sta- Owed in:front-of the House of Lords. . _ Every precaution,• ins short ; that could be devised, was taken to secure folhe Peers the freest access to And from the House, and to prevent any interruption to the public peace fiom the number of people ex pecte.4 to be attracted .to the scene of the extraordi nary proceeding about .to be transacted. At eight o'clock the assemblage was not numerous; but after that it increased rapidly, and at nine o'clock every vacant spot permitted to be occupied within sight of Westminster Hall, was covered with eager spectators. At the butler across the principal entrance into l 914 Palace-yatd;.,admittance was refused to all, ex eapt.those who Appeared to have occasion to pass tbrcassb to Abingdon-street. The excuses, however, '''. 4 ' so numerous, that a considerable number of ipectatoil had assembled in the foibidden ground by ni9e i p'cleck. Mr. Lai observing this, with much utlwity and good nature caused it to be cleared of all persons who were .attracted by mere curiosity ; fitlor did he suffer the few who remained to cong;e• gate together, but ordered them so Iceep moving. As early as nine o'clock, the Peers began to some in carriages, others on horseback, an 4. 4ot_a fevinn foot.

Mr. Sheriff PARKINS, hi his state carriage, frequently passed-backwards and forwards.

PEERS. Her MAJESTY having slept last night at l3randcn 'burgh House, rode into town this. awning, accom 'panic& by Lady ANNE HASltt.3olr, in.ber travelling carriage and four. On the dickey-was Mr. Ilszao- NYMUS, her MAJESTY'S Maitre d'Hotel, and behind the carriage were two servants in the Royal livery. -The circumstance of irr .MAMMY having ilcpt Out of town not having been at all known, the carriage attracted comparatively but little notice as it drove rapidly along Piccadilly, and, down &. James's street into St. James's-square; but on arriving there about a quarter past nine, her MAJESTY found an immense multitude of persons, of all ranks and classes, assembled to greet her arrival, which we need scarcely say, was done in the most enthusiastic manner. Her MAJESTY acknowledged their salutaticase, by bowing often and most graciously on all sides. On the car riage being driven to the door of her MAJESTY'S. re sidence, Mr. Alderman Woon, who had been in waiting there since eight o'clock, came to the door to receive het MaJassir, and conducted her from her carriage to the drawing-room. The greatest anxiety was at this period manifested by the crowd to obtain a sight of her MAJESTY.
