The cross-examination of Mademoiselle Dumont this day is pregnant with importance. Every hour throws fresh light on this great and momentous question. The truth must come out; and we oast say, the trial of the Queen, if so it can be called, wears at this moment a most extraordinary appearance. A letter in Mrs head writing of this witness is producedin which she speaks in the highest possible terms of the Queen, calling her a most injured woman, and expressing to her deter the strong attachment she felt for her. But the letter goes further, and mentions that she received an auonymoas letter, holding out an offer to her to come to Lollies, to beams a governess, that she should get a large isetase, and at the same time giving her permission to draw es a banker in London to any &monist. In the Second Edition, we shall give the full particu lars of this extraordinary disclosure. Yesterday, the examination in chief of Leda Dumont., who had been waiting-woniaa to the Quust, 'lteeitpiod the House of Lords till nearly four 'Week., The Soticiv4.lt-Oewsa.u. then announced, that I e had no note questions to ask "for the present ;" an though it was note that an hour from the usual tin. of adjournment, the parties who had been eagaged in the examination were so exhausted, that the trees examination, which sight be expected to he d eor respoading bark and severity, was postponed till to-day. By some means with which we see ohne quantal, a report has, for the lest two days, beam cir culated, that Iladesokselle DUMONT le the last wit ness to be 'ionised IN support oldie Bill.

The dettdoe of the etatelaltilleas‘ however, is a maser of metb lees importassee than that of the adjournment ; Sc, though the interval proposed is professedly allowed to afford time for preparing evidence for the Wares defense, it is manifest. that it will also operate to the hdury of her M•3llSrell tease. The points brought forward by the witnesses for the Crows, are confessedly strong, and the cir culation of each evidence unaccompanied, as we noticed isoteoiley. by the proper means for effacing its int peessisas. mast have a natural tendency to prejudice the Merest* of the Quests. It is an easy task to excite sispiabs, and difficult to restore con&lence wheel ones Impaired. This, the accusers of her MA.. JUTE well know ; and, as if they were aware they Should fail in effecting her conviction, they adapt their measures for the minor purpose of making her suspected. After two laborious weeks, what is the whole summit of their evidence, even upon their witnerans 'hewing ? What have they proved ? Has any one winless spoken to the fact of adultery ? And what la the character of those who have defamed her Ma -1 start ? Arc they those of any rank or habits that we usually respect? When British officers and men of honour are brought forward, do they testify to any criminality or even improper familiarity on the part of the QUEEN ? It cannot escape the notice of the most superficial, that many of the tales related by the foreign witnesses carry their contradiction within , them. There are many Incidents related to which no man or woman of sense can give a moment's credit. A number of the actions imputed to the QUEEN are inconsistent with the conspicuous character of het ' mind, and cannot possibly be believed unless upon the 'apposition of her having been an idiot or insane. Set let it also be ever kept in mind, as we yesterday observed, that though the testimony of these foreign' witnesses is before the world, their characters are not. We know nothing yet of their habits, their machine , dons. or their motives. The period for the disclosure has tut come. The testimony of Lady Docol."s had' Ha- credence fur a time. But no evidence hitherto brought forward, or likely to be adduced, can equal Aim She swore that she saw the Princess pregnant• elk the milk flowing from her breasts.

While suffering under the impression produced by the perjuries of Lady Docatss, the Palm-ass, who bad such experience of the source from which the lenirgnity had flowed, was aware of the clang -r to which she was exposed by a repetition of its efforts. In a letter to his late MAJESTY, dated the 16th of February 11107,81 m expresses apprehensions that ought always to be kept in mind, and that are peculiarly applicable to the circumstances of the present moment. " Your Mejenty," says she" bas seen what detriment my s " character has for a time sustained by the false sad mall " cloth statement of Lady Douglas, and by the deposition " of the witnesses who were examined In support of her " statement. Your Majesty bits seen how many enemies I " have, and bow little their malice has been restrained by " any regard to truth in the pursuit of my ruin. Few. i t •• may be hoped, may be the instances of such determined " and unprovoked malignity. Yet I cannot fatter myself " that lb* world does not produce other persons who may " be swayed by similar motives to similar wickedness. " Whether the statement to be prepared by the Priem of •' Wales Is to be confined to the old charges, or is intended " to bring forward new circumstances, I cannot tell; but if " may fresh attempts of the sante itature shall be made by " my menaces, isstrrseted as they will hare bees by their " wisearrlisge tit this ',utiliser, I can hardly bops that they will not renew their charge with an Improved artifice. more • 'blindly directed, and with a malice Inflamed rather than ' abated by their previous disappointment.

The old gentlemen pm Ms respects to Many. who is much disconcerted by this unexpected visit. Great confusion now ensues, the trick is every moment on the eve of being discovered, and the young I - real/fan is in maw queue 'obliged to confine himself to his room. Hearing his cousin, Mesamond, in the adjoining room, he is however unable to keep the secret, and suddenly entering pre sents himself before her. The usual torn/ports of course take place ; the lady forgives the stratagem which has been played, and promises to try the effect of her Inter cession with her father.

In a journal published at Palermo. under the auspices of the Provisional .Innta, is a long and spirited reply to an address from the Vicar-General of Naples. Aftet enumerating the degradation and hardships which Sicily had endured from the domination of Naples, it avows the fixed determination of the Sicilians to maintain their independence, and implores his Royal. Highness not to abandon himself to imprudent or disastrous measures, nor disgrace by such means the first steps which the Neapolitan nation is waking in the glorious career of liberty. A strange spirit seems to be seising the soldiery of foreign countries! In Piedmont the army baring heard that Lis Sardinian Majesty had been soliciting a see your of Austrian troops, has sent, it is said, a iwn-suf france to the King, in which they plainly tell him that to ask the assistance of Austrians would be an insup portable insult to the honour of his soldiers, who boast that they are 'efficient for the defence of the throne, the country and the constitution. We 'hare much pleasure in being able to state, 'that his Majesty has been graciously pleased to attend to the humane recommendation of the Jury by whom the un fortunate Mr. Richard Templeton was lately tried in this Island ; and that the sentience of deatlinassed upon him has been commuted to transportation fer life. This we see the good effects, even in extreme cases, of previous good conduct and repntation.—(Dmagless Garotte.)
