PRICE SEVEN PENCE. —dos— Saturday, at one o'clock, the Deputation of the Honse of Commons waited ul•un her Majesty, at her residence. at Portman -street, to present the Resolutions and to re veil% her Majesty's Answer.—Her Majesty was stand ' ing la dos drawing-rosin, attended by Lady .1. Hamilton, and having on her right Mr. Brougham, and on her left Mr. DeNtnan,buth in their full-bottomed wigs and gowns, as if at Court. The folding doors were then thrown open, and the four Deputies of the House of Constant's, in full Court I tresses, entered, and were severally pre sented to her Majesty by Mr. Brougham, who in formed her Majesty of the places for whirl' they were Ms•mbers. ./1 hey severally knelt and kissed her Ma jety's hand.

When the Deputation came nut, Messrs. Brougham and Denman accompanied them to their carriages, and Mr. Brougham returned to shake hands with them, and to chew the people that they were entitled to respectful treatment. On their return the Deputation ail jumped into one carriage, amidst the hooting and hissing of the mob. Mr. Brougham and Mr. Denman followed. The people Attempted to take the horses from their carriage, hut Mr. Denman addressed the:m, and begged they would refrain, as their time was precious. Th ey drove offaiitidst the applause of the multitude. When Mr. Denman appeared at the door there was a general cry of " Bravo ! three cheers for Denman, the Queen's Champion!" and three most astounding huezas fol lowed. - - IRE UFFICE.—Uarit4I (Ix a 31s1.1.10N.—Kliri r , F e rected upon etery seeption of Proper! within the Cnitei; kingdom. arm reasonnhie terms.

" That this lionse has learoNl with unfeigned and deep regret, that the late endeavours to frame an ar ✓angement, which might avert the necessity of A public iwtuiry into the information laid before the two Houses of Parliament, have nut led to that amicable adjustment of the existing differences in the Royal Family, which was so anxiously desired by Parliairo-nt and the nation: " That this [louse is fully sensible of the objections which the Queen might justly feel to taking upon her self the relimplishment of anx points in which she may have conceived her own dignity and honour to he invol • ; yet, feeling the inestimable importance of au anii cali:e and final Adjustment of the present unhappy dif ferences, this (louse cannot forbear declaring its opinion that when such large advances have been made towards that object. her Majesty, by yielding to the earnest so licitude of the House of Commons, and forbearing to press farther the adoption of those propositions on which any material difference of opinion yet remains. would by no means be understood to indicate any wish to shrink from inquiry, but would only be deemed to afford a renewed proof of the desire which her Majesty has been graciously pleased to empress, to submit her own wishes to the authority of Parliament ; thereby en titling herself to the grateful acknowledgments d the !louse of Commons, and sparing this [louse the painful necessity of those public discussions, which, whatever might he their ultimate result, c0r4.1 not hut be dis tressing to her Majesty's feelings, disappointing to the hopes of Parliament, derogatory front the dignity of the Crown, and injurious to the best interests of the Em pire." Ordered—That these Resolutions Le laid before her Majesty. Ordered—That Mr. Wilberforce, Mr. Stuart Wortley, Sir T. Ackland. and 31r. Bankes, attend her Majesty with the said Resolution. Her Majesty then delivered to Mr. Brougham the following Answer, nhich he read by her MajeAy's command, and delivered to Mr. II illwrfurre:— L ass bound to receive, with gratitude, every at tempt on the part of the noose of Commons. to inter pose its high mediation, for the purpose id 'sea!lag' those unhappy differences iu the Roy al n hieli no person has so much reason to deplore as myself. And with perfect truth I can declare that an entire reconcilement of those differences, efferted by the autho rity of Parliament, on principles consistent with the honour and dignity of all the parties, is still the object dearest to toy heart. " I cannot refrain from expressing my deep sense of the affectionate language of these Ite”olutionr. It chews the House of Commons to be the faithful Representative of that generous people, to whom I owe a debt of grafi tittle that can never be repaid. I sin sensible, too, that I expose myself to the risk of displeasing those who may soon be the judges of my conduct. Ilut I trust to their candour and their sense of honour, confident that they will enter into the feelings which alone influence my de termination. " It would ill become me to question the power of Parliament, or the mode in which it may at any time be exercised. But, however strongly I may feel the neces sity of submitting to its authority ; the question, whe ther I will make myself a party to any measure proposed, must be decided by my own feelings and conscience, and by them alone. " As a subject of the State I shall how with deference, aid, if possible, without a tumour, to every act of the Sovereign authority. But, as an accused and in ju...4l Queen, I owe it to the King, to mv•elf, and to all my fellow-subjects, not to consent to the sacrifice of any essential privilege, or withdraw my appeal to those principles of Public Justice, which are alike the safe guard of the highest and the humblest individual." The Deputation made their obeisance and retired. From an early hour on Saturday morning a great crowd had assembled about the Quren's residence, in expectation of seeing the arrival of the Deputation. The crowd was perfectly peaceable, and manifested nothing but geed humour, till about eleven o'clock, when the man mentioned ►n Tar STATSIMAN of Sa turday, and who seemed to he deranged, slung a stick ar the parlour windows. Had it not been fur the inter ference of some respectable persons, who suggested the probable r.•ase of the outrage, the crowd appeared very well disposed to infiiet summary punishment upon the man. He is said to be the 11:1111e person, who, about six months ago, went into St. James's palace and attempted to car►y off the colours of the guard, at the same time declaring himself to be the King of England. At one o'clock the crowd had considerably in creased; and Noblemen on ►orseback, ladies in open carriages, and peruses of all descriptions on foot, were confusedly mingle :I together. Among the persons on horseback we observed the Earl of Sefton, Lord Kia naird, Sir H. 11143owan, Sir Robert Wilson, Mr. Cal craf, M. P., Ice., who all appeared to take the greatest interest in the scene. ----.— At a few minutes before one Mr. Brougham arrived at the house on foot, and was followed shortly afire by his Learned Colleague, Mr. Denman, w'io mime in hie csrriage, and was loudly cheered ; Mr. Williams was also in attendance. At dye midst's past one there was a cry of " here they come," and the carriages containing the four Mon. Members appeased at the end of the street. Their appearance was the signal for a general uproar, and whoa they arrived at her Majesty's residence. the mut titusle round the ?muse began to chose them with the Mod opprobiuns epithets, calling them syco /ler Majesty looked exceeding elwerful and well, was eleg.antly dressed in a robe of black satin, and on her head a bandeau of laur..l leases studded with emeralds and surmounted by a plume of feathers. ' The immense crowd soon afterwards dispersed, with the exception of a few idlers. LUPERML PA nLIAME.VT. HOUSE OF COMMONS. SATURDAY, JCNE 21. The greatest attendance we ever recollect, on the last day of the week, took plate at the (louse of Com mons this evening, for the purpose of receiving the Answer of her Majesty to the Address, presented this day, from the House. Mr. Wilberforce, uho was at the head of the Deputation, not having arrived at a quarter past five o'clock, his name was loudly called for. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM—Mr. Lasswrox begged to take that opportunity of observing, that in consequence of the state in which public business stood by the occurrence of this day (we presume the Honour able Member alluded to her Majesty's reply to the Ad dress), it was evidently impossible for bins to bring on his motion respecting Parliamentary Reform, which stood tiled for Tuesday next. If he merely wished as a iitalle.kagirmui-to 'Tamen the {sledge which he had given ts. isapy of his constituents, he should press for s/ad his motion. (tut as he had a sincere_ desire to Dave Ali great questf‘n discussed in the wanner, with theattentiois which it merited, awl uhieli it was now impossible it should obtain, he should postpone it to the next Sessiou.—(Hear, hear!) • EDUCATION OF THE POOll.-31r. BROUGH AM said, he felt the necessity of yielding to the weight of the other business, %thief' was now, beyond all 'other, in anxious eorretation fixed in the public eye : hnt it was due to the general interests of the country, still to attend to other business. notwithstanding the pre dominance of that alluded to. For this purpose, if the subject to which reference had been made were pressed forward, he ,thought justice to the public tlaniantled that, as OR a former occasion, where an important in quiry was before the House, certain days should be set apart for the vgular business of Parliament. In this view, and considering, the question respecting the I:du cat:on of the Poor of the last importance to the welfare of the eommunity, he should certainly bring it on on Tuesday next. ALDRESS TO HER M;UESTY. Mr. Wilberforce, accompanied by Mr. Stuart Wort ley, now entered the House. The former was loudly called fur; but Mr. S. IVortley took his place at the Bar, attended by Mr. Bankes and Sir T. Arland (the Deputation appointed), and announced that the De;ot tation appointed to wait upon her Majesty had that day delivered to the Queen the Resolutions of that House, as authorised by their rote, to which her Majesty hail returned an Answer. For which, see another part of our Paper. Her Majesty's Answer was then read by Mr. S WOHTLICT. Mr. Wilberforce, who had also'a Copy of the .%nswer, and who corrected Mr. Sr. Wortley, in a few imma terial words% the course of reading it, was called on by the Speaker, carried up the Answer to the Table, and deposited It in the hands of the Clerk. (leveret Ponnusstisr.—As we are now about to enter upon this Ailloappy investigation, which, accordieg to Ministers, so seriously affects the dignity of the Crown and the interests of the people at large, we hare a right, ! think, before we proceed further, to receive some information concerning transactions which have teference to this painful subject. Before we begin the imasiderstion of the Inquiry, I heg to ask a question teepuetiag the Milan Commission. Was it a public or a private Cusnisissios? Was it sanctioned by the k gitimate advisers of the Crown ? Was there a Report from it; aad if so, to whom was it made ? I should also like to know by whom that Commission was ap pointed ? and by whom the expence was defrayed. I hope this question will receive an answer from the Noble Lord apposite.—(Hear, hear!) Lord CAIITLI AAAAA hope the Hon. and Gallant General will excuse so on the present occasion for re minding hits, that w►en we agreed to meet to-day, it was specifically understood by the Hon. and Learshd Gentlemen opposite (Mr. Brougham), and I believe by ethers, that we were sot to meet for discussion, but, merely to enemies the Queen's Answer. As we are to enter upon this subject on filoAday, and as it may rev haps be necessary that the public should see the whOe' extent of this painful subject, I do hope that It will not be expected of me now to say one word more that can lead to premature discussion. I must thereto rr decline answrring the Him. and Gallant General's que•• tion at the present moment.—(Hear !) Mr. M. A. TAYLOR protested against the doctrine laid down by the Noble Lord, that his agreement with any Hon. Member was to be admitted as a bar to ant inquiry which others might think proper to make. The question was a very proper one, and he thought the Noble Lord was in ditty bopnd to give it an es plicit answer. He need not, of course, unless he choose ; but as he had said that the House was now to know the extent of the quo stion for the purpose guarding better against its consequences, he thong lit it but proper that an answershould he given toso serious a question as that put by his Hon. and lialkint Friend. It related - to rn occurrence whkithad either arisen from an authorised or unauthorised agency. It was either the act of Government, or the under-hand dealing of others. In either case it was material to know, whether the transaction had been adopted hy responsilole authorities. His view of the matter was this—lf Ministers saw any disposition elsewhere to act exiausive of their advir e upon so momentous an occasion—if they saw any steps taken which they could not with consistency and in conformity with their duty encourage, they were bound to give ethic.• to that effect to their Hoyal Master ; and if that advice were not received in the mariner they thought it we. entitled to, it eras their duty to resign. —(A laugh from the Ministerial benches.)—lie did assure the Gentlemen who haul just indicated their feelings, that hr spoke disinterestedly ; for so far from having a n that his friends, or the gentlemen who surround...l him, should get into place, he thought it lin/H0...0,1r that a greater curse could befal them, or a greater calamity visit them, than to succeed to the places of the present Ministers, in the state of misery to which those Ministers had by their counsels reduced the country. For their august Royal Master, from e. he had been now separated for years—(laughter 1..,•,, the Ministerial benches)—be entertained the .t friendship, if lie dare speak in such terms of his ‘,,- vereign, to whom he yielded in respectful duty to no man. If the Noble Lord (Castlereagh) could resume his gravity, he would tell • that lie (Mr. Io ) spoke feelingly from his sense of the state of the roil - try, and not from any spleen that could be supposed to arise from his having been separated as it were fr that Sovereign perhaps by the counsels of that N oki• Lord.—(Repeated laughter from the Mini,terial benches.)—lle spoke mit honestly, and under an i,:•- perious sense of his duty as a 311.mber of Parliament.— (Hear, from the Oppesition brushes.)—lf in abet he had uttered were any expressions personally hurtful to the feelings of the illu.trieus Individual, he isitireaily to beg pardon--but not of the Noble Lord. He mail are sure the Noble Lord, that lie was grossly mistaken, if lir • thought be could embarass I • (Mr. T.) by any t Moe; which he could do. He repeated it, that lie laiiwitted to see that illustrious individual in the hands of the Noble lord and his colleagues. The Noble Lord smiled again. had the Noble Lord preserved his grave limbs, he (Mr. T.) would have sat down long ago. He insisted on it, that the question of his Hon Friend was perfectly proper : and Hsi) answer should be given to it, it would carry a conviction to his breast, that there was something in the Milan t' mission so odious and objectionable, that the Noble Lord would not dar •to own it. Hi' strongly objected to any compromise on the part of Lis Hon. Friends. lie thought it highly improper for the House to be ruled in its conduct, in an affair of such importance, by the decision of tito or three individuals. Sir It. WI i.s ox did not wish to provoke disco ;. io.r, but he felt it necessary to ask the Noble Lord ioljounied debate on the King's Message would re sinned on Monday, or if it was intended by Ministers to insist on the appointment of a Secret Cominiyee He asked for the purpose of obtaining infonnati, ct !• r his constituents, who were anxious to seise the oppor lanky, if any should otter, to express their obie. , i.• us I to that mode of proceeding, by' way of petition tJ :he House. Lord CAPTLeRrAOII declined giving any answer to any further question. 3lr. It. MARltst said, that no man was mnn• ills posed than himself to feel fur the infirmities of lon.an nature. Accordingly he felt great commiseration fop the infirmities which had been displayed by the Gen tleman who had spoken last but one. His speech was just such a tine as he (Mr. M.) should have expected to hear from a Minister newly discarded freu► office, on addressing his successors. He protested against the speech altogether, which, besides that it had nothing to do with the business before the House, was fur the greatest part about himself. It was highly incireorous to be puttaas gitebtions so the Noble Leath viper:ally when it was known to be the feeling of the House that there might to be no discussion. The question of acijoyaronsent was then pot and agreed to.—Tbe House adjourned. ELECTION OP SHERIFFS.
