Wlshorised by him to say, that it was Intended t• abandon all the new clauses, as he meant only to withdraw one of those Clauses which had been inserted in the Bill by asistalui—(44l4o) • —eat that it was his intention to reserve the other new clauses for discussion. POST OPTICS EXPRESSES. Ina Couunittte upon the Post-Once Act, a Resolution was passed, authorising the Postmaster-General to charge double postage in certain cases, which the Chancellor of the Rube quer, who nude the m otion, explained to mesa when letters Were taken by express. For the convenience of trade, and the public in general, be observed that's system of conveying letters by express was about to be established. The it experiment was to be made from London to Manchester, and if found to answer, it was proposed to extend this mode of con ve yance to cshutgo; and Edinburgh, but as it was calculated that the ex• slue was at the outset likely to be considerable, the Resolu tion for an additional charge for postage was deemed necessary. The Resolution was agreed to, _ The other Orders of the Day were disposed of, and the House adjourned at Half-past Two o'Clock. THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. THUJISDAY, JULY 6, 1820.

It is founded chiefly upon one charge, but that one a hideous act of alleged criminality ! We shall not twice soil our columns in the same day, by repeating it here, but content ourselves with referring to the Bill itself, of which we have given a copy. in our Parliamentary Report. All the other charges become moonshine, when compared with this act; nor will the Public give to them the weight of a feather, if hei JESTY . S accusers shall fail in establishing the principal Charge.—The Bill extends not only to the degradation of her MAJESTY from the style, title, and preroga• tives of Queen Consort, but to a divorce c vinculo suatrituonii ; and the Lords are to be the Prosecutors, Judges, and Legislators in the cause ! I:rea, ions to Elie introduction of this Bill, some dis cussion took place on a Petition presented by Lord DAC fie from her NIAJESTY, stating, that she had been informed of the Charges made against her, by the Re port of the Secret Committee of the House of Lords, and praying to be heard by Counsel, her MAJESTY having weighty matters to urge which might have a considerable influence with regard to her future de:. fence. The prayer of this Petition wits rejected, on the ground that there was no measure 'against ber MAJESTY before the House, and therefore her Coun sel could not be allowed to be heard. We subjoin some interesting extracts on this topic, from the Morning Papers of this day : • /EOM THE TIMES. 44 Theirrocettlinp against the Queen have now reached their summit. They have risen to that point which her ads clerks had long contemplated with hopeless aspiragions, but of which they hart/ly dared openly to confess their desire. Under the title of a Bill•of Pains and Penalties, a Ihtoace Btu. was last night brought into the Upper house. This is certainly more than the country was as yet prepared to expect ; and if the attempt is not nipped in the imd by the 'firmness and vittse of the House of Lords, to which the Bill is offered, we suspect that our pr - ophecy will not long want cosfirmation—that the troubles of the coun try were but just beginning. The preamble to this Bill will be read with deep attention, and the most acute surprise. It re. laws certain offences of the Qintex (on which we shall speak hereafter), and then concludes with the proposition that the mar riage subsisting between hes and her husband should be dis solved : as if all that were necessary to invalidate the Most heron of all human engagements were the misconduct of one party. We must 'generalize our argument in order to avoid giving offence. The law of divorce, as it exists in this Christian count:), is founded on the Word of GOD, and the Law of the Gospel. But the Law of the Gospel makes no allowance for rank or station—affords no indulgence, De exemptions, no pri. alleges : neither, therefore, can the law of divorce. " Now the law of divorce separates, upon substantial parr, a pure man from an impure woman ; but it dors not allow, nor ever has allowed, nor ever can allow, of the separation of two impure people at the option of either. We do not impute to his Naricrer an impure life, either during hi. cohabitation with the Wars or since she quitted him; but we do aver, that a Bill of Divorce, founded upon the simple misconduct of one party—the conduct of the other not being allowed to be examined or in quired into—is a violation of the law of Gon, as it is modified and applied to the sacred marriage rite. Be the Quzzs'a.con. duct what it may, his MAJFACT must show an unimpeachable gee to relief, or must allOw that title to be scrutinized before relief can be iliforded him ; or otherwi3e there is an end Unlace of all the sacred solemnity of the marriage contract: fey ill examples do not mount from the humble to the great, but tr e .. send from people in elevated stations to the crowd. " A Bill of Pains and Penalties is one thing, even suppose such a Bill had imprisoned the Auras for life, or had banished her from the kingdom ; but a divorce, a dissolution of the nup sly; bond, is a measure of a totally different nature—it does not o w l guilt; it sets bale from a disastrous obligation. Lot it. be recollected, that the man, as well as the woman segue* an his knees, before the altar of Goo, that, forsaking all others, he will keep himself only to his wife, so long as th e y b ot h s h all t ee : We do not say that the Kum has not dose this; but it i; obvious that the fulfilment of his obligation is a necessary and unalienable condition of the dissolution of the marriage; and that it is impious to dissolve the marriage without allowing of what is improperly called recrimination, but which is really only a controverting of the plaintiff's claim to relief. - a And now with respect .o the crimes imputed to the Qua l m •If we were before doubtful whether Ministers could prove th e cho p of adultery against her, how are this 4Rho itraaith., 4 , , . many the most riagular preamble Odds 13111, wimwein we gad it Imputed,an °fence te her litaiant, and placed by the side of her with BM WS; that site instituted an Older of some bind sr other?

" A more harmless offense thsn'tbe hat we never knew nor heard of; and, indeed, it is clear of ad the diaries, that nose of them are really criminal but the adultery. If, therefore, the adultery could have been proved, these other cirennasulats• which, per at, have not the, tincture of • erisainality in thew, would not have been introduced. . " Among the many anomalies of this shirtier proceeding, we fear we may overlook tome. The proof of the adultery and the Divorce Bill go On together. They are to constitute one aet ; instead of the divorce following, and being founded upoe the &melt-don of adultery. It would be little less remaskabk or preposterous If the divorce were passed "Ant, and the adultery were proved afterwards. But the crime of fligh Treason being F Sea aside on a technicality, her klaarsre is, therefore, not to know the witnesses who are 'to depose against her ; so that it is nett to Impossible that sbr can disprove their evidence, show the in famy- of their character, or evince their absence from the scenes which they-pretend to describe : and farther, as the papers of the Green Bags are kept secret, it is impossibie even to compare their parole evidence with their deposition." YOM THE BRITISH PRESS. " Previous to the introduction of the - Dill yesterday evening, Lord Dicer presented a Petition from the Queer, desiring that her Counsel might be immediately heard at the Bar, for the pur pose, even in this early stage of the proceeding, of suggesting some circumstances, which, as her MAJZSTY was advised, were modal towards her future defence. • This humble request was, hokever, refused, because, forsooth, her Masssrr must, as their Lord,hips held, be presumed to be profoundly igr.orant of a Re port of a Committee, which was known to the whole Metro polis, and to a considerable part of England, and the fame of which is at this moment 'reading iti way as rapidly over the surface of the globe, in every direction, as it is possible for horses and ships to convey it. It was even declared, that if the Quasx could be supposed to be apprised of the conttutstsf that Report, i% would be nothing short of a au-render of the whole constitu tion of l'arliamcnt!—.-This observation was actually cheered ivy the Llowse. 0 Is it not extraordistacy that men who are in other matters endowed with good sense and discretion, should so grossly violate every principle of ordinary understanding when they come to deal with forms and fictions? It is a principle of law with which their Lordships are, no doubt, familiar, that no fiction is ever admitted its practice, except for the furtherance of justice ; and yet, upon a point where the honour of a guitar:, and still more where the judicial character of the country is concerned, the House of Lords would, rather adhere to an absurd fiction, nan:ely, that the Public know nothing of What passes in their Lordships' House. than grant a slight indulgence to a person accused, and that person their suppliant Quern. " With rt grid to this fiction, which presumes the Ignonusee, of the Public, and which, indeed, prevails in both nooses of Parliament, we may be permitted to remark, that it is of toss paratively modern date, and is inconsistent with a mud mete important principle of our common law, which presumes that every man in the State is acquainted with the Acts of the .Legis lature on the very instant of their being passed,, In the early periods of our history, Parliament was holden in a very public manner, as Courts of Justice now are, and the people were not only admitted, so far as couvenience allowed, hut even req to be present at the enactment of the laws. The ntaxhn'of the law that ignorantia kgis no* mutat, was in those days perfectly equitable, for nut only were Ow laws made in the presence of the People, but it was the duty of the Sheriffs of Counties in the:: Cotuu , and even we believe of the Clergy in their Churches, to read the laws to the pastititude.— But, if the doors of Parliament were now literally closed against the Public, and that nothing transpires/ of what was passing within them until the result of the deliberations was sent to the office of the King's Primer in the shape of an Act of Parliament, the Public might well plead ignorance of the laws. The Qt. r.as in particular has a right to complain of the fiction, for, in consequence of the publicity of the Report, her character has been assailed ; yet, when she offers to meet the allegations, she is told that she must be presumed to be ignorant of a charge which has become the topic of universal conversa tion, and is bandied about every tavern and coffer-house in the Metropolis !" FROM THE MORNING GERALD. "It is all of Degradation and Divorce—is fearful formula of punishment for a woman and a Queen to encounter—over which we sincerely hope she may obtain the only legitimate tri ampb—thc triumph of established innocence." " Upon the issue'of this great trial, the fortunes, the harmer, and all but the lives of the adverse parttes, viz. of the Quern and t • present Ministers, may be sald . to depend. The Qum certainly meets the investigation with unshaken and andtrinking nerve." THOM THE MORNING TOOT. C 4 The 818 founded on the Report of the Lords' Committee was last night brought in by the Earl of Livsarecn. It is of that nature which the Report demanded, and, it win rejoice every well-regulated mind to observe, just, without being vindictive...- Founded on a preamble, which man be proved (or there Js no foundation for any deprivation of rights and honours), the mea sure goes not one step farther than absolute necessity require., at the result and consequence of its truth. For no one will deny that if adultery has been commhted, the lent pewit, that could attach to the crime must - be degradation from the . rank of (low, and the forfeiture of an the rights and intmunides of that exalted condition. There is no threat of punishment, no angry passion sought to be ,gratified. The Bill simply says, you are accused of having brought shame and disgrace upon the British Crows— the fans being established, your sentence b, &worm from that Regal State which you have abused, and deprivation of thos e privileges of which you have shewn yourself to be unwortliy." . s Sunday and Monday have The Paris Papers of arrived.

" As soon as this news reached Ali Pacha, he marched off with powerful forces towards that city, . which Re entered in the night-time by snrprize, to ,the great terror of the garrison and of the inhabi tants, whom he immediately ordered to be put to the sword ; and, in order to encourage the more his sol diers, he abandoned that unhappy city to be sacked." The same letters add, that " a Turkish flotilla had captured, near Corfu, a vessel loaded with warlike stores, which had sailed from Leghorn, and was des tined for the Pacha of Jaanina."
