Mr. HosatsioN gave some explanalion, in which he referred to the Act of 1817 for the regulation of offices of the character of the one in question.

He pledged himself to the re spectability of the very great numbers of freeholders who attended. He was samoished to hear of such so assembly having been called • mob. By and by every assembly would be called a molt, except battalions of ialhotry and sosadruns of draguow.. Those very Gentlemen opposite wbu bad, as he would my, d a red to laugh—(Las- 1 ought to have resealed such laolissge as degrading to the country and an 'Remit to Parliament.

Mr. %Viti.I.EBLEY PoLK would take the liberty of offerilig a few observations in reply to what had fallen f the Min. Baronet. He hoped be had not misconceived the Honourable Member's el. lusious; but he could inform hint that if sc. quaiiited with Abe character of that Noble Per sonage, he would say that there war no individual in this country, nay, 11l the world, whu valued more highly the libertits of his country.— ( Load crier of " Hear, hear" and laughter from (he Ilppositiugg Beggches.j—There was me mail in this country who knew hini that did not value his constitutional priucipirs. He belie%egl that Hush Gentleman misunderstood the statement of his Noble Relative, obi se great achievements had not only been valued here but till over the world. He did not mean to say that all county meeinigs were farces, but that those meetings deserved that apptl. knout where nothing revisited but disorder and tumult, and where only one side could be heard. He wa• not in she habit of weighing his words, not being ■ regular public sepesker, ■nd that a hasty observation had been snatched up by those who were in the habit of bestowing more attention to their words; but he was quite sure that there was tin man in this country valued more highly thou his Noble Relative the invaluable light of petitioniiig. Sir W. De Cauriosir replied. Mr. BIItING mid, that the Hon. Gentleman hedrnistated the character of the meeting. Mr. Wel.t.ssLair PoLE wished to correct the Hon.

William Siniih ; and from Lanark, by Lord Archibald Hamilton, all to the same purpose. The Mouse having resolved itself iuto a Commit tee of Supply— . . . Mt.IiVEY swished to make one observation nn that occasion. With respect to whether the oh strvetion said to hove fallen front a certain tllltf lrinusindividual in another place, were time or not, he could wit tell. That uhservatine might perhaps have Siren lm ported from the Sovereigns at Troppau ' who meowedw con sider every thing a firer but poster ain't repine—(l*oyr) but fur a real farce, recumineud him to a Committee rif Sup ply —(Much larghter.)—Hot he hoped the people would take this mailer into their serious consideration. They should hold public meetings for that purpose all over the country. The people had lately taken a noble attitude, they had preserved the Queen from being sacrificed by the M lois. sera of the Gown—(//ear, hear)—they had preserved the laws and constitution of the country from being subverted by the Ministers of the Crown—and he !roped they would now take into their serious consideration ills preservation of their own properties against the %Miters of the Crown.— (Loud applause.) THE QUEEN. The SPEAKER hiving re•nined the Chair— Lord ARCHIBALD H•MILTON rose, in pursuance of his previous notice, to move for the restoration of her Majesty's name to Ihe Liturgy. There never was no occasion on which he presenied himself to that House when it was wore sieeessory to crave their indulgence thou the present. It would be quite superfluous in him, after all that had beet. expressed in way of petition, to iusist on the Hike resit iiteportueice, or the deep interest which t he public at large ',eke in this great question. lie tussled that the unimportance of the imlividnal who ad. stressed theta would be amply atoned for by the nutrients' petitions that had been presented to them, and he hoped the House would take these wilily°, into i!air consisleruti.us, and that his deliciency would be made up, not by the argu• memo lie should bring forward, List by what this House must well loom is the unanimous opinion of the country. The House cook' trot be ignorant of the extraordinary fer ment that had hems excited through the conntry, ever since these proceedings had been commenced—a ferment so great as to p t nut only that Hume from attending to the affairs of the public, but the public (runs attending to their concerns tlwmaelves. With respect tu himself he had lust one observation to make. He well knew that Gentle men Ulf the other aisle would say that he adopted this spies. be made it a party question. ()ace fur all, he begged In 'outset almost any suck sisfrience. He begged the House to remember, that he did out wait for the ex pression of the public opinion, or fur the opinion of his party. Me stood sip vu his place m a lime when he knew that the Queen was persecuted and insulted—st a lime when the Noble Lord opposite was obliged to have recourse to such circutnlnculiutis to prossainice her Majesty's name, which in itself was sin insult.—(fleur, Aenr, hear,—No Mile was more aware loan be was of the necessity of a eu4 ,l assl deli b erate decision on this subject ; and when the Chaseellier of lb, Exchequer and the Noble Lord opposite would come forward and tell the House that this was • dry kgel giantism, be would suppose himself is the situation of that peraecnled Laths, and ask them, when they were ale k ing leer name out of the Liturgy, wheu they wrre casting spun their Queen the moat opprobrious and the must unme rited insults, did they then vire it as a mere dry hp! question? —(Lord eltrere.)—He would her; to remind the Howse, that when the Hun. Meagher fur Beenitier (vilsoun lie was sorry not to see in his place) had occupied so much of their time, he (Lewd A. Mufti Itow, Limo stood np mad pro. posed an Anieuilment, which formed the substance of Lis present Mutiu ; and he would appeal to the House if that motion had been then granted, whelks - 1' the country weald mot have been saved all the disturbance and contagion in which they had been involved, mid whether the Throue ..a the Constitution would not be on a Sinter fonnatatiou. He mum legato repeat that he did sot cimailler this as a party qisestiau, although he would never itiaelairn a f dr and open hostility to the Noble Lord opposite. He coeceived th•t this mestion, like ell others which wrre bronchi redo the consideration of the House, might be traced ID Ministers; and he would not have the least right to bring this question before them, if not bottomed on their responsibility. Now, in the first place, liv would be glad to know from the G. 'lnnen on the opposite side, how matters could posuebly se: main in their present situation? How wag it possible for the Quieell to remain in this country, situated as site is at present? Was nothing to be done to stone foe the insults that had heel, offered to her? Was her Majesty still to be subjected to the column.' that were tinily posited out from the press against her character? By this he would not he meant to impose any restrictions on the press. His obj-ct and his wish was to remove the cause of these calunatoes—a cause of which the Ministeri of the Crown hail as much reason to be ashamed, as the people to deplore.—(l/ear, hoer, hear.)—Assi.lst all the distresses and calamities in which this country has been involved, if lido such a cosesten•tion of evils soy one could be selected mine striking than another, it is certainly that uncoestitu tiousl measure to which lie alledell. In cuusequeitce of the notice given the other night by his Noble Friend be hind hint (the Marquis; of Tesistork), he should coufine himself as closely as he mold to the ajorstion of the Liturgy, as souther opposition, would be given to consid. r all the other parts of the mirstion. But it was impos sible for any man, in considering this question, nut to visit on Ministers all the misfortunes in which it had itivolverl the toiletry. Pelham, if the whole language was searched the mildest term that its mild justice could be applied to it was, that it was revolutionary in the extreme. He gave it as his opinion, advisedly and de liberately, that no proceedings of any set of men, radicals to reformers, iu that House or out of it, of which he was aware, could possibly hr coissidered of so revolutionary a nature as the conduct of his Majesty's ‘liiiisters„ in ad vising these u is fort,' nate proceed i —e Ilea r, heue.)— The ground on which lie should call upon the House to vote fur die measure a Web he should propose, Is, that it was most unwise, Impolitic, end inexpedient, to - the 'lame of her Majesty from the Liturgy. Anil the first thing ne cessary to be alone was to remind the House agile situation is. which her Majesty hail been placed ay. that time. Gen herileit had talked of subsequent irritation, and ntrospec. tive a fleet. The worthy Alderman, the other night, depre cated the erasure of her Majesty's name Gown the Litia6gy, but condemned her on account of the Letter to the Knit; •isil what was this in reality out condemning her for our set, and punishing her fur another ?—(Heor, hoar.;— It had been well compared by an Hots. Friend near him, to the Inquisition, whom the expremiona that had fatless from her on the rack hail been called the depositionv of witnesses. But the treatment that bail been Aleuts to her Majesty was not only impolitic and inexpedient, but unmanls and sou. just, already persecuted as she had been to such an inhu man degree, what was the situation of her Majesty in this • ? A stranger in our country, she was deceived by our laws—she was a wife, bus hail ~o husband—no protec tor. This was her situation at home; and the moment she quitted the country, she was beset with spies and isiformen, all her steps and movements watched with the most scrupu loos accuracy, and even foreign deplumatists were earragid in this hotiourable employment. On her departure, she was handed a letter of license. And would any man he the country—would the House of C.oniumee-wwwild even that mysterious person, the State, assert that, ad mining her alaksty bed been guilty to the fullest ex. tent alleged against her, that she hail a right to be punished with perish" • in her pocket. He should offer but little on what was called the legal part of the question. He would ask why her Majesty's emus was utigivally excluded from the Liturgy! And he would be glad to receive a plain answer to that question. It bad been said that there were heavy charges against her Majesty; but if those charge' were caul proved, why not restore her name to the Liturgy? if they were proved, then why nut follow It up to judgment, and not leave the matter in the vague un certain way in which his Majesty's Ministers had thought proper t o let it reel ! The Order of Council of the lath Febru. ary states, that the Act of Uniformity priorities that stick site. ratio*. May he made in the prayers fur the Knyal Family, as may bee 00000 e so•cessary, and may he fitted to the ureasion ; but he denied that in the Act any provision Wee made fee the alteration of the prayers, it was merely a provision her the alteration of the naines—he therefore asked arm what authority, in a legal point of view, Isis Majesty's Mi nisters had made the alteration ? If the Legislature iutesoled to grant a prerogative, why did not the Act express it? Now the Art of Uniformity being the only authority alluded to in the Order of Council, he supposed it was the *who'll', relied upon. Nu positive directions were given by that order to pray for George IV. but as it may be said the King never dies, it might not be cusendered necessary as to bin; hut if it were unnecessary to make that order on the accession of Kiag (Large IV., if it were& matter of course to pray for him, so also it was a matter of course to pray fur the Queen Coinent. Further, lie would est his Majesty's Ministers or their law advisere, to what extent they supposed that Act gave them authority? He imagined they meant to contelid that it gave a power to the Crown to ise according to its caprice. If that were their opinion, he trusted it would receive am answer Gum that House : but could it ever be coutenikil that the Act gave authority to make the changes in the Liturgy a sort of penal power?—for so it had beau used, it was used for that express 'sorrow, and was in tended as a degradation to the Queen. He was satisfied that the Act intended tin such hoer, and trusted that the House would some to the emichisiou that his Majesty's Mi nisters were wrong. He did not intend to freshets what was done by else head of the Church, the Archbishop of Canter bitty, but be must express some surprise that the head of the Law, the Lord Chancellor, should preside at the Cowl. tit where that order was given. There was one thing which the alinisti-rs had done, which, if not illegal, was at least nugatory. The order was sent to Scotland, where they had nu jurisdiction; it was therefore a dead letter, or a "Mintiest of law, road the consequence was, that Scotland it hail remained as mere waste paper. The con duct of Nlinistirs, if out illegal on the whole (and lie said this in the Iwo ing of the lord Advocate), certainly was so as it regarded Scotland. There was one Halite so extraordi nary to that Order in Council that he could not help taking some notice of it—the name he •Iledeil to was that of Mr. Canning ; and however UllgtaCtoug it might seem so comment ton au absent persou, be must go on, for of that absenre itself he had to complain. Common report hail said, that the Right Him.
