LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 1820. - 7 Paws SEVEN Plll4Ol. which was, the production at the account of the nape elation that passed between the agents of the FAO* 41overtsroent and her Majesty tits Queen. It sea** that the House was now called upon to institute Vie ceedings against her Majesty, fur thecrime of setting her foot in England. This was the sum of the charge. The King, it appeared, had the same objections,tie be in the same kingdom with her Majesty, as he formeriy had to sit with her in the same drawing-room:4lllpar, bear!)--In pursuance of this feeling of enmity, a threat was held out against her Majesty at one time, and then a bribe was proffered of 50.040/. to induce her to renounce her character as Queen of these realms. When the King sent a Message to the Molise of Commons, with a view to induce them to join him in an accusation against her Majesty, the House had a right to ascertain, in the first instance, if it was aerate In which they should interfere at all. He was of opi. nisi!' that it was not. No man in the country isibtra that the affair was entirely of a private nature. fur ther was there the smallest doubt that the proceedbt; s were instituted in that House with a view to the pre curing of a Bill. Herr the King was the prosecutor, and lie was to be Judge in the last instance; for it was well known that no Bill of Attainder could pa.• without his Majesty's sanction. He begged the House to consider the state in which they were about to be placed. Since the time of Heury the Eighth, a dan gerous time to draw precedents from, the iateeference of Parliament was never looked for in a case of this kind. If the Princess Charlotte err- now alive, the present Message would never have been thought, of. He entreated the House to pause before it proceeded farther. Sir R. WILSON did not rise for the purpose of promoting discussion. He believers there was but one opinion as to the great importance of the case to which the attention of the House had just been called. He appealed to Ministers to protect the Queen frontal in dignity during the time that the proceedings were carrying on against her. Ile did not now speak of the indignity offered to her Majesty by foreign Mi nisters and Courts—he did not complain of the indig nity offered to her Majesty by her exclusion from the Liturgy—but he thought it disgraceful in the extreme to the authors of the indignity, that her Majesty, the Queen of England, should find no other vessel to curry her from Calais to this country but a common pocket —that she should find no asylum, or plasm to reside in, except the roof of an iudividual—an honest man. —(Laughter from the Ministerial benches, followed by loud cheering from the Opposition benches.)—Yes, an honest man—one who had always discharged his duty to his country with fidelity and seaL—(Cbeers.)— He (Sir R. Wilson) was cert tin that his Majesty would moor 'near any tadigntryitl be ofereal wrest partner of his Throne, and once the object of his dearest affections. Lord A. Hallett:eon thought the present a favour able opportunity for the few observations which he had to make. The House would recollect that he had formed and expressed . a strong opinion Upcin this sub ject before. His Hon. Friend (Si, Robert *Buie) seethed to attach but little importance to the exclusion of het Majesty's name from the Liturgy. tie,(Lord A. Hamilton), on the contrary, was persuaded that this act of the Ministers tended in no small degree to exhibit a disposition on their part to condemn her Ma jecty unheard. Ile was of opinion that this act of theirs was wholly illegal, and contrary to the terms of an Act of Parliament. Was it not one of the first and the most boasted principles of British justice, that every kill% idnal. from the highest to the lowest, was regarded by the law as innocent, until be or she ea. proved to be guilty. He would optical to the senti ments of justice, of Ministers the.bselves, if their con duct to the Queen was fair, even upon the supposition that they were enabled to make out a case against her. He begged to observe, that he spoke not from any in struction or authority upon this occasion. He contended, that her Majesty', name ought to be replaced in the Liturgy before any measure of hostility was instituted against her. That it had been the intention of Mi nisters to strip her of her character of Queen was ma nifested by their present conduct. Their acts against her had raised a prejudice, ender the operation of which the House was now called upon to eater upon the dii cussion of charges to be brought forward against her. The House had not even heeled why tilese indignities were , *tiered to her Majesty. From the conduct of Slinisteri it was an evident eonalusioa. the: they used their intitence with a view to condemn her .unheard, He implored the Howie to reusove from their minds all prejudices, ant to enter upon the task Wien them in the spirit of the law, which accounted all untried per sons to be innocent, notwithstanding Miaistees had, an far as in theta lay, **admitted her Majesty. It was: the spirit of the Constitution that the acts of the . Go; moment should at least be characterised with lit berality. Was the Order in Council eacluding her name from the Liturgy in this spirit?. Was it not issued rather in consequence of some , dark intrigue hatched against her? It was a cesium feat; that this Order of Council, having been sent to Band, was 'no taper than a piece of waste paper there. Many of the clergy prayed for the Queen; and, in a late ae _ nimbly - of the °metal Convocation, a motion was , ran& ti oedema this Order as an linproper later lertnee with the ecclesiastical administration of that coitatiy. He (Lord A. Hamilton) thought it neces sary to say thus meth ; for he coati MI pee the arta: of Ministers pervade every part of the kipinima. with out •proWitiag *Oast their conilact, aid without in sistlag so di* deitetier.llahrity w by treated in the tarn way as tloriumiliMit RsiAia. asabelY. to be p" upon her trial irithiliMpt4Uollli _ , Mr. Doman dilltamt rimer** purpose of enter in join any Mail di•endes of the mem* of this eats, as pssio.ll birred ems/Vs Occur. lie esslimed tp give law. purr se his slllll6o.llllllthlsbedigiak test he should.. be . hrtanyed lullb iikiwimiisp. the expositiun PAW " The Cause for which HAMPDEN fell in . the Field, and SYDNEY died on the Scaffold!"

At two o'clock the King entered the House, and! gave the Royal assent to the Civil List Bill, the Insol- 1 vent Debtors' Continuation Bill, the Mail-coach Re gulation Bill, and several others.

MESSMiE FROM THE HOUSE OF COMMONS. —Several private Bills were brought up in the ordi nary course frau) the H,iu•e of Commons, and went through the first reading. THR til'EEN.—The attendance in the House was at this time greater than had h..en witnessed for many years; all the Royal Dukes now in England were present, and the henehesof the Nobility on both sides of the House were eonspletely thronged, when The Earl of Lies:aeons, rose, and presented a Mes sage Loin his Majesty, which being read by the Lord Chancellor, and immediately afterwards by the Clerk of the table, appeared to be expressed in nearly the following► words:— " The King deems it necessary, in consequence of the arrival of the Queen, to eommunicate to the (louse of Lords certain papers relative to the conduct of her llajesty since her departure from this country, which his Majesty sPeOl,l• mends to the immediate and serious attention of the House, " The King has felt a most anxious desire to avert, by all the means in his power, a necessity as painful to his pork as to his own feelings; but Vac step taken by the Queen leaves him no alternative. •• The King feels the atmron confidence in making this eomumnication. that the Hous.• .•f Lords will adopt that course of protmeding which the j ust ie.. of the case, and the honour and digit of the Crow n moires." The Earl of lavaueotti, said, that he ha!l it in command fruui his 3lajesty t,. lay the papers re. (erred to in his Majesty's most gracious 3lessage iK fore the House.—(Here the Noble Lora laid on the table a sealed bag.)--It remained for him, of coarse, to move, that his Majesty's most gracious Message he salon late consideration, and Amid rrnpove ant dress to the King to-morrow, which would pledge the House to nothing, but to thank his Majesty, and to assnre him, that the. House would adopt that course of proceeding whitla the justice of the rase, and the ho nour and dignity of his Majesty's Crown appeared to demand; he al:-o now gave notice, that those parrs be referred to a Secret Committee of their Lordships,l and in making this motion he wished it to he distinctly' understood, that it would be only going as far as was warranted by former precedents, to the extent that these were applicable to the nature of the rase ; and he would propose, that the Secret l*mounitter should consider whether ant•, or what course of proceeding was proper to he adopted. lie then mined, that his Majesty's most gracious blessage he taken into con sideration to-morrow, atti that their Lordships be summoned thereupon.—Adjournrol. HOUSE OF COMMONS, Tt EaD.l%. JIM: 6. At two o'clock the House was summoned in the usual form to attend the House of Lords, while his Majesty the King gave his consent to various Bills. On their return, the Smitten informed the House, that it had been at the House of Lords, &e. in the usual ni.rnner. The House was occupied until half-paMt four o'clock, in balloting for a Connuittee on the Pcterslield Elec• tion Bill. DUTIES ON TIMBER.--Sir I. Covets moved for an account of all timber cut within the American floated down the rapids to Canada, Ste. f the purpose of re-exportation, from the year ISIS to Is-1.0. The object he had in view in moving for this at-count was, to show. that instead of benefiting our own colonies, by excluding the Baltic timber, we were in fact giving all the benefit of the supposed monopoly to the United States. He was a friend to the shipping interest; but he would not support any system that conferred a be nefit on one country, which we denied to another, and be ourselves a loser. Mr. Lo ..1 Tura presented a petition from the ship , owners on the coast of the county of Cumberland against any alteration of the duties on timber. Mr. Ccawatt supported the petition.—Laid on the table. LOrtICAANVILLSSomiasET presented a petition from occupiers of land in Monmouth, praying the House to sake the state of their distress into consideration. — bald on the table. DISSENTERS.—Mr. W.

At a quarter past five o'clock, Lord CASTLEREAGH brought down a Message from his Majesty, which, having been presented, was ordered to be read. The Massage (for which see the Lords) was then read. Lord CASTLERILAIM then rose, and moved that an humble Address he presented to his Majesty to return his Majesty thanks for the gracious Message which he had communicated, and to assure him that the House would take the earliest opportunity of taking !On consideration the papers which he had transmitted to the House. The Noble Lnrd then gave notice, that be should on to-morrow (this day) move that the pa pers presented by order of his Majesty be referred to a Secret Select Uowmittee. Mr. BENNET then rose and said, Neat seeing no one at that moment in the House diapeanitto address the House, he should take the liberty of asking a ones- j lion of the Noble Lord opposite. He wished to know whether a letter, which appeared isi one of the public journals of that day, purporting to be a communication from Lord Hutchinson to her Majesty the Queen, was s genuine document. lie wanted to know if that No -1 bletwin was instructed by his M.ijesty's Ministers to tender to the Queen of England a proposal to lay down the rights and dignities, of which nu authority on earth could deprive her—(lasud cheering)—and to ask her to consent to he bribed with 50,11001. a-year for this susrender.—(Cheers.)—Harily as these Minis ters were, he could scarcely believe that they would venture upon a measure of this extraordinary nature. What! propose to the Queen of England to strip her self of her character—and to accept s bribe: If this were the ease, he could nu longer entertain a doubt of the truth of an expression slime time since uttered by his Right Hun. Friend (Mr. Tierney), that the Queen was insulted and the Queen betrayesl.—(hear, hear!)--He wished, anxiously wished, to k'. to , if this letter, with the signature of Lord Hutchinson, was or was not a genuine document. Until he heard the acknowledg ments of Ministers themselves, he should not Lelievs that it was. Without this acknowledgment, he could never give credit to the statement, that an English Minister would tray to the !keen of England, without the consent and approbation of Parliament—(Lonst cheers.)—" divest yourscif of the character of Queen of England, lay down your rights and dignities, and we will bribe von with 511,1111,1/. a-year ;" and this, too, at a moment when the conutry was involved in its present difficulties. Fur it was to he remembered, that this sum of 50,0110/. a-year was to be paid, not by the King, but by the people. And to whom was this money to go?? fo, an individual, ratio, arrording to the representation of Ministers, was not only unlit to be a Queen of England, bnt unfit even to set -her on English ground.—(Hear, hear!)--To call this con duct treason, were, perhaps, monstrous ; but he had no hesitation in describing it as treachery, the effects of which were calculated to shake the throne. Feel iug, as he did, the utmost reverence for the Monarchy (because upon its security he was persuaded the tran quillity of the country rested), lie could not, as so honest man, and while he saw nobody about him dis posed to perform the task, he could not, as an honest WRH, abstain from asking if Ministers hail ventured to transmit a person over to France with overtures of the! nature stated in the letter ascribed to Lord Huh:ll4lmm. Ile would repeat his question; were Ministers, or were they not, parties to a proposal addressed to the Queens that she should lay down her rights and titles as Queen i—(('lieers.) lord CASTLEREAGH said, that on many occasions he had had an opportunity of admiring the temper of rho lion.Ctentleman—(Cheers on the Ministerial benches.) ....and he was sure dial the present manifestation by the lion. Member of that deliberate state of mind with which he came to the consideration of a grave ques. don, deeply affecting the dignity and honour of the Crown, and the best interests of the country, -would make a due impression on the House.—(llear:)—lf there were no other reasons for declining to give sis answer to the question of the Hon. Gentleman, hit, (Lo:d Castlereagh) would be induced to abstain, out of tenderness to the lion. Member, and with a view to affor.l him an opportunity of recovering a state of mind more suited to the entertainment of a solemn question of this nature. He (Lord Castlereagh) pre mised that there could be no difference of opinion as to the propriety of an Address, returning the thanks et the House for the gracious communication that kat ken just made to it. This course, he apprehended, Liras sanctioned by usage, and even if that authority absent, he thought that grateful seknowledg ments were due to the Crown for a communication of the greatest general importance that had ever beta [ transmitted to the House. lie hoped the House 'voila linens: him for declining to answer the question It present, as it had been proposed without notice. I n a case of acommon Turnpike Bill, he believed it woad' be decorous to give a notice. How much more essen ' dal was this course in s case of so grave a nature as the present ? The Hon. Gentleman would allow him, therefore, to say, that on this occasion he would not be precipitate, but that he was determined to take that course which was most congenial to his notions of prudent conduct. The Han. Member, howeier, might, if he pleased, consider this as a fit time for no tice, and he might have an opportunity to-morrow (this day) of proposing his question. Mr. BEAUMONT thought that it required very little deliberation to state a fact. '1 he question, in biros& nion, was perfectly fair anti reasonable. From the speech of the Noble Lord, he had no hesitation in ears. chiding that the letter was perfectly genuine .—{Hea r Mr. r. Caraeav said, that whatever be the opt. &don of. the Noble Lord, it certainly * wit not **MOP° nion of all that the question of his Hon.
