LONDON, FRIDAY, Orronzit 13, 1820. The proceedings in the House of Lords yester day were extremely interesting, as they also err vril to give the dg fence of the QUEEN • first% and com manding chat meter. Lieutenant I lows All was again celled to the bar, and wits closely examined by several of the Peer,. Their Lordships seemed to consider Mr. HOW SAM as bring possessed of an inexhaustible store of information upon ibis swat important topic, and were therefne loused liug to part with him until they had a itislied their curiosity glom every point. Fortenate is is fur the Wets when the Lords undertake this elo•e elm. ttsinatio• of her witnesses: for their Lordships, im pressed no doubt with a sincere desire of reaching the truth, disploy all their ingenuity in sifting their evidence, and thereby affoid them admirable opportunities of explaining every point in their previous exat:iiteatiou which might have gives occasion to any d►ficulty or mystery. How often has the friendship of the Lords towards her MAJZITY compelled Lieutenant HOW %A nt to declare, upou his oath. his sincere and hunr►t impression, foamed under • view of the very pecu liar circumstonces in which the QUM. was placed. that he lied never witoeseed a►y impropriety in her demeanour ! The examination of the Lords also brought mia, that this witness had once seen one of her 1111aJtstritissoervisats (named Mauatcx CREDO eau his knees before her. beseeching her to forgive him for his treachevy towards her, in boring coun tenanced and eaconroged the spies who had beset her steps; nerd from it we also learn, that her MA. f I had, from certain occurrences, entertained strong apprehensions that her life was in danger, and upon this account it was that she had con• ceived it fitting to constitute a Chamberlain, whose official duty should place him in constant attend. slice upon her person, and upon whose fidelity and courage she might rely with confidence. The Lord■ inquired of Mr. 11OVINAM whether any suspicion had been entertaiued of the fidelity of the crew it► general, and on bring answered io the negative, seemed to argue with the witness upon the necessity of her MAJESTY continuing to have a guard upon her person out board the polacre ; but Mr. HOWNASI very propcily remarked that the ship might roll, or a, sea might break over the deck, or other dangers might arise, to which naviga tion is necessarily exposed, and it would not be quite /stoner that her Royal Highness should pus the night upon deck without having some male servant in immediate attendance upon her persom Between her male servants then, whop► was she to choose? Him, doubtle►s, who was the first in rank, as her Royal Ilighriess's Chamberlain, and to whom the duty of immediate attendance upon her person especially appertained a; connected with his motion. The strongeet sr patent, however, upon this point is to be derived from the impressions entertained at that time by Mr. HowN AM, as he has stated them upon his oath; and who that has not experienced the difficulties and embarrassments of accommodation out ship board, whose travels are bounded by the narrow. confines of his native island, and whose notions of personal inconvenience are drawn from the luxu rious accommodatiotts of his own house, or an occasional trip to some fashionable watering place-. or even surmising that his experience has extended to air excursion to Paris, and that he has tasted for a few hours the petty miseries of a Calais packet boat—who, under such circumstances, can ver►- ture to estimate the importance due to the pe culiar situation in which the Patucass was placed ou board the polncre, and oppose his no limos of female propriety and delicacy to those of Mr. HOWNAM, who had in person felt and witnessed the embarrassments and difficulties that oppressed bis Royal Mistress ? la reviewing the situation of the Palaces, with reference to the diabolical charge that has been preferred against her, many points must arise in every candid mind to prove the utter improbability of the crime, but which cannot, f r om a sense of decorum, be urged in public with the force that naturally belongs to them.

Our readers most remember the filthy story re specting the ►tstu.s of Adam and Eve at the Villa d'Este, as told by ItAGAZZIONI, one of the wit 'lessee fur the prosLTution.

The evidence of one of these men, who was the overseer of the works at the Villa d'Este, seemed to produce a very strong impression upon the house•.

NEW CHURCH AT CHELSEA. Yesterday having been appointed for the laying the first stone of the new church at Chelsea, by the Duke of IVellingion, preparations were made for the accommodation of the spectators upon an ex tensive scale. A large space was railed in, in the shape of an amphitheatre, for :he company, and platform was erected with all the necessary appa ratus for the ceremony. So early as twelve o'clock gentlemen and lashes , elegantly dressed, began to arrive. and in • short time a tinnirrous comparry were assembled, expecting with great impatience the arrival of the illustrious Duke. At half past four his Grace's brother. the ltev.

Th:s assurance seem ed to appease the ' g discontent or the - pany ; but half-after five Caine, and no Duke arrived. Some more oirne was spent in idle expec tation, and it was finally resolved to proceed in the ceremony without waiting any longer. The Bimhop of London and other agents tit the scene then came forward. and laid the stone with the usual furnish ties—being the only instarice of the first stone of a church being laid after sun -set. The company then began to disperse, full of disappointment and disa•- tiafaction.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12. The Court sat this morning again in Justice Hoell, Old Bailey. George Ferguson, M.D. was opposed on the ground of undue preference, concealment of pro perty, mod a misrepresentation of his fortuity. He underwent a very long examination by Counsel ou behalf of the opposing creditor, a Mr. Thompson. The following is a brief ()whim of the case:— The Defendant went in reside in Derby, in 1816, where he commenced business as a Doctor of Physic. Soon alte► this he furni.lied a house, at the rate of YlO/. which had snore been paid, but the person who advanced him the money was not paid. He bought a horse, valued at seventy pounds, of a Mr. Thompson, and gave a bill for the same, payable three months after date. He dewed having ever promised to pay for the horse on delivery. His father allowed him about 1501. a year, and his profits from his profes sional duties might emotion to 300/. more. In two months afterwards he disposed of the horse to a Mr. Glover, as security fur monies advanced by Glover to him. He had also given Glover a piano forte, value 401. a gun 101.. books, card-tables, disoing-tables. liec. The residue of lois furniture produced him 401. and his embarrassments were occasioned by his being plaeerdeol in the streets of Derby as a swindler. He denied having ever avid that hie fortune was above five or 600/. a year. The debts due to him were 87 in number, the only good one of which was one amounting to half a guinea. The Insolvent, on his examination, denied having given any undue preference to Glover; on the coo trary, the goods were delivered to Glover time after time as he advanced the money on them. The COURT was decidedly of opinion that no grounds were made out for the charges of conceal ment, undue preference, and a false representation of his property; nor did they think there was any fraud or ussasecessary expenditure in his purchasing the horse, such an article being necessary turnable I• to discharge his professional duties ; they there fore ordered Ilion co be discharged. after inserting to his schedule the in - tides hr had given to Mr. Glover, and also his binding himself to assign over to Lis creditors any interest lie might have in three art cliii. l'he Court also announced and wished it to be made public, that by the IleM Act of Parliament persons living in the country might save the es. prise of coming to town by sending up their affidavits.
