THE BRITISH PRESS. LON DON, TUESDAY. Ot.-rossa Si. 111110. The Sountroa-GeueltAL engaged the stlestisa of the House of Lords yesterday until half-past one o'clock, brit% one hour and a half more than he had previously prouxi.ed. The Learned Gentleman was well anise of the advaiitager be most derive from the renovated attention of the Haase, recreated by the intervention of Smithy, and judiciously resolv ed to porton: thee► to the utmost. Thu great length of the Learned Gentleman's speech, and the multi plicity uT points on which he commented, would require space as extensive as that which is occupied by his speech, to particularise the vagueness of his reasoning and the incorrectness of many of his re ferences. The Learned Gentleman was aware that lie should not be followed •by any Counsel of the other sid., and therefore conceived that he might indulge in • more Ilion u=ual contempt of logic. Ile has •Iso permitted himself occasionally to use certain tuna of expres.ion from which we think he would have absiained had he apprehended a rejoin der from any one of the Queen's Counsel. The sot.tctroe•GENattAt. undertakes to protect the Ch.rad,r or DEMONT% testimony from the attacks of the other side, but in labouring under this task, iA Inch is too burdensome even for his strength, he iniforturourly stumbles against the ATTORN EY 011111IEA L um] in the confusion, though somewhat il'OLinerdly, contrives to do the Queee a service. " Dittilowt," he declurrs, " never said that the dreirsirell by the Princess at the opera was indecent : else only said that the neck and arms were bare, and that the drap.ry was dispowd in the usual manner to displey the Muse of History." Sir WILLIAM GEL!. end Mr. KEPPEI. CRAVEN both declared that the dress was not indecent, and the SOLICITOR-. GFII ERA I. contends that between their evidence and that of DEMON? there is 110 contradiction. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL. had, however, contended, .:its his accustomed energy, that the dress was indecent, for it was so transparent that another dress might he seen ceder it ! We thus have the AT... itsummr aid the SOLICITOR.GENERAL at variance in winds—the former anxious to convict the QuElit4 at all hazards, while the latter, more judicious in his r.ll. is willing to concede this one point relative to the dress, and admits that it was Hot indecent—that lie might save Dxatotre-a testimony for more important purposes. • But by what pia of the evidence tines the SOLI 43TarAG F.N CnAL COsictive himself justified in saying" that the Princess of %VALES had discarded all her English suite ? There is not one word throughout the whole of the depositions to warrant him in using such en expression. This is a new charge against her MAJESTY. differing essentially from the Cornier, which declared that all her Eng lish attendants had LrFT titta in consequence of the improprieties perceptible in her conduct. This is no instance of the adroitness of her enemies, and smacks of the very spirit in which the present accu sations have been prepared. No sooner have they been beActi out of one point than they cling to titer, no matter what inconsistency there may he to the change, and hope by the suddenness and vs 'let) of their attacks to baffle if they cannot defeat their sirtagoirist. It is scarcely possible to imagine airy one occurtence in lire wbi. h might not by tie evil ingenuity of persons disposed to wickedness be .construed into an act or inference of criminality. Thus we find in the present instance the character of the Princess of WALES sought to he blasted at one moment by the voluntary departure of her attendants, and at the next by an unfounded alle gation that they had been driven from her presence. It is not unlikely that had her English attendants continued in her household, we should now find the ATTORNEY and SOLICITOR GENERAL warmly and 1,611414 arguing that the Princess of WALE* had artfully retained them in her service, solely for the purpose of deceiving the public eye, and covering by a good exterior the criminal propensity of her beurt. It is however in evidence wirrositradieted, , that the English Ladies sod Gentlemen who had formed u putt of the Priticess's household previous to her departure from England. had arranged with her Royal Iliglineds that they should nut continue with her on the courinesit beyond a certain 'ugh tl. Souse did leave her Royal Ilight,ess at the time bitpulaterl, others reinuived in her service longer, but it is now placed belood the possibility of doubt that they kit her voluntarily, its pursuance of a prr•vious arrangement, and wi'llout having seen soy insproptioty in the conduct or mariners of their !toys! llestress. In *nullity part of his speech. the SOLICITOR. GENERAL observed that the Couirsel for the QUEEN had dropped the prom-viol 111 l of the charge of cots spiraey' trout Move shame.

Bitowne to the bow of the House to refute the allegation ? On the conclusion •f the SOLICITOR-GRNI• RAL*I speech Mr. BROUGHAM again tendered. as evidence of the conspiracy in the present case. cer tain letters written by Baron OMPTEDA in Febru ary and March, 1819, and addressed to the Direc tor of t►e Police at Pesaro. an agent of the Flume Department of the Papal Government ! ' In these letters the Baron notices the confidence he feels in DIMWIT'S sister. MARIETTE. and in HIRRON SOUS. " A sufficient answer," as Mr. BROUGHAM well remarked, " to the repeated questions of the ATTOWERS' and SOLICITOR-CAMERAL, why these persons had not been produced ?" The admissibi lity of these letters as evidence was denied by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL. The House also conceived that they could not he received, for, on the motion of the Duke of HAMILTON. that the letters should be admitted as evidence, only 16 Peers voted for it, while 145 were against it. Lord HOLLAND Op posed the motion, on the ground that he had al ready made up his mind to vote against the second reading of the Bill, and thought it unnecessary to hear any further evidence. Upon the decision of this point the House adjourned until Thursday. In the proceeding,' now pending against the QuerN, the Piosecnior is culled the State, which, if it mean any thing, must comprise the Cabinet Ministers : those men who organised and paid the Milan Commission—who laid the green bag, the fruit of its labours, on the tables of the Lords and Commons—who framed the Bill of Pains and re 'whim and stood forward in its support. A Noble Lord, we understaiiil, menus to snake a motion to disqualify " this State" front voting, in all its ra mifications, on the question for the second reading of the Bill. it is a motion founded in justice, and to which every man anaiour fur its puce adininistni tion must wish success. When Queen Katharine is called to her trial, we bud her objecting to Car dinal Wuley in these words:— " I do believe, ladeced by potent circumstances, that You are mina enemy, and matte my challenge, You shall nut be my Judge : for it is you Have blown this coal betwixt my Lord and me, _ Which God's dew goenels ! Therefore I say nails, I utterly abhor, yea from my soul Refuse you for my Judge." To this charge Wolsey pleaded not guilty. Ile declared her MAJESTY did bins wrong, and said that what he had done was warranted by a commis. slots from the whole Consiatory of Rome. If his enmity were a good cause of challenge to Wolsey as a judge in her MAJESTY'S cause, how much more reason must she not have had to complain if he had been her known, avowed, and relentless pro. aerator ? We hope that the State, that is, the Cabinet Ministers whom it comprise., will feel the weight of this objection ; that, actuated by a sense of honour, delicacy, and justice, and consulting the dignity of their high rank and station, they will anticipate the wishes of the Noble Lord, and take an opportunity of intimating their concurrence in l.ty motion. We hove received German Papers to the gist instant, extracts frnn► which will be found in another part of our Paper. It is now said that Ministers, conscious of the complete failure of their case against the Queen, but nut powssiag magnauimity enough to confess it, are endeavouring to make . a &sent retreat. Witte this view they give out, that if the House will agree to the Kciend reading of the Rill, it is their intention to pare it down iu the Committee, au as to meet the m• charges, which would not amount to more dna levity and indiscretion. This would bring the peewit( case to the precise result of the former conspiracy against her MAJESTY. and would break the fall of her enemies. A tom. promise of this kind would he am injustice to her MAJESTY, who is entitled to an unqualified snit triumphant verdict of acquittal. The partisans of Ministers however flatter them selves that by this paltry temporising manoeuvre, they will be able to carry the second reading.

The Aral procession that passed along the Stns. I was that of the Youths of the Metropolis, cestsisting of lads from the age of 12 to IS.

The theatre was excellently lighted, and the' new rm• imillsohniento noel decorations appeared to the imatelt advantage. The entertainments selected fee the tveiting were. the comedy of the Rood to Rein, and the slew eat ravagatisa, which had*. great a run lad season. of Giovanni in London.

Solent in each kind. COVENT GINGEN. Dr, YOUNG'S tragedy of 7he Ileoenge was per formed here last night, fur the first • these four years. This is not only the chief of this writer's dramatic works, but among the choicest which British genius Ines ever produced. Violating. we bells cc, not one of those rules which critics hive prescribed to the votaries of Melpomene, it poi vessels a merit which no art nor observance of ruler can attain. It is strongly cliaracretised by the very highest qualities to which any species of poetry can aspire—sublimity 1,1 thought, vigour and bold oval of couceptioio, and a torrespotedent brevity and pithineses of diction. The priticipal character of the tragedy (Zeno) is drawn with a p en cil as much superior to that of column's writers, aelhat character's crimes exceed in meguitude those of ordinary villains. Dr. YOUNG has in 'bier' truly delineated " a soul of fire," a " child of the son, with whom revenge is virtue." Thus very atriums: part was assigned to Mr. MIICREADV Ind night, for the lint time. Arduous that character may well be called, which, when adequately sustained, must excite in the spectator the rentionents of loathing and abhorrence in the highest degree, united to no inconsiderable portion of amazetneeit, awe, and even admiration. This, then, is the praise due to Mr. MACILLADY'II effort. Whoever sow it would doubt the universal truth of the ItOfflall satirist's observa tion, that revenge belongs only to little, abject minds. Mr. MACREAGY'S Zmiga could not but be hated—it is not in homes' nature to avoid de testing the ninny diabolical qualities which he brings into operation against the lisppioess of itailiveduala, with whom he is living on teems of friendship, and some of whom have lesser given him cause of offence ; but it was not eery to despise it ; his guilt had an originality, a luftine-s, a grandeur about it, inconsistent with contempt. lie stood forth a villain, but a commanding, inegni fiCtla villain. There were various imssieges, ia deed nearly all the striking ours in the part, %leech, from this gentleman', niuiimr of giviug them. elicited isestasitaneous awl involuntary expressions of admiration from a large proportion of the audience. Await these were the descriptiou of the blow received front ALoszo:—the first opening on his mind of the plot for venrr ' eance—" I la! it dawns," the execration olAlurizo addressed to the prophet, which was delivered with a surprising intensity of passion—the sarcasm contented in 'these lines was most forcibly preserved in the recitatiou— " if yam forgive, the world will call you good; If you forget, the world will all you wise ; If yes receive her to your ersee again, The world will call you, very—very The dank side of the portrait received its finish.. ion{ touch in the lost scene, when Zang,. opens the lust Alonzo's eyes to the fatal deceptions he has 'practised. and the irreparable calamities and crimes in which lie has involved him. In this Fassage the .violence of the actor's emotions, the feelings of satiated malignity, gratified revenge, and boundless triumph over his fallen foe. seemed ready to burst his bosom, and to swell Ins form into somethieig for beyond its natural dimensions. Mr. C. KESIBI.C'S Alonzo was a most vigorous and spirited perform ance. The two female characters. Isabella and Leonora, were rustaileed, the former by Mrs. STEIL.
