LONDON .30U1INALS 111:1 IL Y 1'.1?..4t TS lIONI PAPERS C THIS DAY. [Morning Post.] THE QUEF:N. Nothing , but the Quo , n, in both Houses of Parliament. 411 the Lords. Counsel were . livrird in support of her Majesty's Petition, which cuntair rd 11011 V Of the wri4hty matters %inch It was it. would -On the Contrary, as 'far as consols,' reasoning enables us to jadge,it is a mere piece of opposition. or attempt to a-hew that every step taken onhor trial is wrong. It has been ungallantly said, that the tame. of ‘Voman ~ vas Contradiction : •if - there was any truth in this, 'her Majesty might claim a place at the head of the sex. When the Legislature ptfrpose to proceed, she insists on its stopping; when it wants to panse, sire demands hat it should hurry on ; Nvlien she can get nolerms, she determines to have some; and when more Than she asks 'is - proffered in the most valuable manner, she rejects the pro posal. At this rate, were the-gates of Carlton Palace thrown -open to her, she would immediately post off to Comb in Italy. The result however, was, that their Lordships 'hold on their steady even cdiuse. On Monday, as originally proposed, the day for the secuna reading of the Bill will be appointed—the numbers on a division 'for doing.this4o-day being only nine en to fifty-six. We observed in our Paper of yesterday, that nothing hot unworthy attempts at popular delusion 'should provoke us to enter upon any of the details of this instefol subject. Unhappily, abundant provocation has al 'ready been (+fiend ; and we therefore 'cannot help rio 'tieing Rome of the delusions which even this - short interval has produced. In the first place, the most erroneous state 'thews have been put forth with resprct to the manner in • Nv lac h BergarOi obtained Isis titles, it being insinuateil that he procured them through the favour of the Sovereigns of the Continent. The facts were simply These :—By certain means, ti hids it is here nnuecessat y to state, that man, who - was so rapidly advanced from a most menial capacity to the highest office in her Majesty's household (having in the progress of Isis promotion been in the habit, first of %lauding behind her chair during dinner., and subsequently of sitting at the same table with her, to the itifinite astonishment of two co tain Eng lish Ladies, who never after repeated their visits)--4 hat -man, Ave say, had by certain means surreptitiously obtained the title Cr:aid. On due and pointed remonstrance beilig made to her :11.-ijusty by the Emperor of Anstria upon this subject, the title of Count was dropped, and that of Knight of the Order of, St. John of Jertisalcut substituted. This, however, gave, if possihle, still greater offence to the high-minded 'Knights 1.4 that honourable Order, than even the former mnwarranta hie assumption ; in consequence of which, her Majesty caused that also to be discontinued. It is wen known that in Italy certain titles and orders are easily to be purchased ; and thus circumstanced, the facilities for that purpose were not oniy embraced, but her Majesty (having .lecen in aern salt-m.:, iashituted an order of her own, called it tht Order wf Car&linc of dirdesaient, and named Bergami the first Knight of it. It is with thm utmost reluctance we arc in duced to re-state the- -, e circumstances ; but the attempts now - daily making to delude the ignorant and unwary, render it imperiously iircumbent upon us to gored the Public against - deception, however painful the tr-k of -dwelling at all upon as disgusting a subject. Another expedirnt, to which the pretended friends of the unfortunate Queen have bet n led to term t, is the circulation of a story respecting Bergami, which, they say, will turn the principal criminal charge agaiost her Majesty into a subject for laughter. It has es - en been stated, that her Majesty's Counsel menu to matte it the suain ground of her defence against the most serious allega- Gni. Such we conceive it would be impossible to urge in her favour ; and to which neither Mr. Brougham nor Mr. Den- loan even distantly alluded in their ingenious_plvadings laa night in the House of Lords. [:Morning Chronicle.] Yesterday, at twelve o'clock, Sir Thomas Tyrwhilt waited upon the Queen, with a copy of the Bill of Degradation and Divorce, introduced by the Earl of Liverpool in the House of Lords on IVcdnesday. Her Majesty received the inteßi gence of the proceedings instituted against her in the Lords, with that tranquil composure which nothing but the conscious iwss of innocence can impart. To the confidential friends who were present, she entered into sonic explanations most satisfactory and convincing. [Morning Herald.] In proportion as the proceedings against the Queen as sume a distinct shape, the public mind fixes upon and follows titers] with increzezed heat and intenseness. Since the intro deletion of tire Bill of degradation and divorce, one feels, in the very streets, within, the echo of the popular sen timent upon the subject. The general view taken is mainly just, though in some respects most perniciously fallacious. Upon the rptestion of divorce, the present is not the time to speak—nothing yet having been proved or disproved. But when it is said or suggested that the divorce between the King wit! his Consort is to be governed by the same rules and princi ples as between private individuals, there is a blindness real or designed to the difference of situation. Its ordinary eases, the divorce is claimed as relief to the individual. In the case now pending-, it is not the King who demands personal justice, but the Country that demands redress and security for its •own honour, and the honour of the Crown. In the former case, it is private redress for a private wrong—in the latter•, it is public justice for a State offence. how then, can the titles of justice or jurisprudence be applied, where the relations between, differ, toto e&o, from each other.— This erroneous- idea would lead to a traits of mischief scandal. But the great mass of the people de• 1717:nd for the Queen the fairest trial, in the abundant s pirit of British justice, and the provident liberality of British law. Should the Ministers incur, even in appear ance, the suspicion of urging farms against substance, they will hut ensure their own discomfiture. There is even at this moment a jealous alarm caused by an apparently partial rezard to forms. An irregular, or untechnical proceeding, may do substantial justice, ani upon - this principle the man ner in which Ministers bent the forms of the House for them s, may be excused. But thus flexible on one side, they twist not be of iron on the other. They should, on the cots- Italy, be-more yielding on the side of the accused. [British Press.] Lord nacre presented a Petition to the House of Lords ye,teiday eveuing, in which her Majesty prayed that he► Counsel should be heard at the Bar to speak on her behalf against the mode of proccedin that had been instituted agaiuct her. The prayer Lie ~,as eijOsed !La ground of its being too general and indefinite, and after sinne ;irgulnent it was at length agreed that iwr IlLsjesty's folio se' should, in their add' esses to the, I loose, confine tbein selves to arguments upon the mode of proceeding on the liill, and with regard to time time of proccedilig. To these points Messrs.Broughain and Deurmtu accordingly con fined themselves ; hut on the latter I oint they in some de gree surprised the Nouse, for instead of desiring time for Collecting witnesses and other clatters, they demanded, in the Queen's name, that not an hour should, if possible, be suffered to elapse before her Majesty was ati . Jrtled an oppor tunity of repelling the charges that bad-been alleged against her.. Lord Liverpool iotimated that he would, on Monday next, apprise the House of the earliest day on which he should more the second reading of the II 11, and for this purpose he moved that the Lords Should be summoned for Mooday. Lord Grey moved, as an Amendment, that the Lords be summoned for this day, and took the sense of the House on the point. The Amendment, however, was negatived on a division, io which there appear ed for the original question oti, and 19 against it. The Lords, therefore, were ordoired to be summoned fur Monday next.- , -The Earl of Carnarvon gave notice that he would take an early oppoitunity of buoying an Address to the King for pustponinr„ the ceremony of the Coronation, if the Ministers of theCru-wn did nut advise his Majesty to that effect. [The Times ] The proceedings of yesterday, with respect to the Queen, offer no great event, but much important detail. About one o'clock Sir Thomas Tyrwhitt waited upon her Ma 7 jesty with the Bill presented the evening bctore to the House of Lards, by command of their Lordships. Her Majesty came into the room, and received the Bill, with great •eahmiess and apparent temper. The words which she used were not distinctly understood, or hare not been accurately conveyed to us. They were in substance or sound like the folloWing:—" I am easy that it comes so late, as 15 " years ago it might have been of some use to his Majesty" (indicating probably, that it might have tended to set aside her daughter's claim to the Throne). What followed was more audible :—" But, as we shall not meet in this world, I hope we " shall in the next," (pointing her hand towards Heaven, and then adding, with great emphasis,) '' where justice will he a' rendered me." She requested Sir Thos.Tyrwhitt, if he had an opportunity, to convey these sentiments to his Majesty. Sir Thomas Tyrwhitt is said to have been much affected on delivering the Message to the Queen. He had not seen her Majesty since she was living in the King's house. THEATRICAL REGISTE Performer) Last Night. THE.% FRE ROYAL, DRURY-LANE.—TiIe Merchant of Venice.

We received this morning the Paris Papers of Tuesday last. The discuision o 4► the Budget of Ways and Means in th►e Chamber of Deputies was commenced on Monday, and adjourned till Tues day. The Budget of Supply, agreed to in the Chamber on Saturday, was by a Deputation pre sented to the KING on Monday.

DRFERKI3I) STOCK Of the 2i'd March, 1820 92 f. 75 c. There is a striking coincidence between a pas sage of her MAJESTY'S Answer to the iVestmin ster Address, presented to her yesterday, and what Mr. DENMAN said in his speech yesterday in the House of Lords. The QUEEN says, " the honour of his MAJESTY mast for ever be -identi fied with that of his QUEEN.'' Mr. DENMAN said, " the Royal Parties, however high their stations in life were, must stand or full as man and wife." This is narrowing the question indeed, and seems strongly to support the rumour which is strongly prevalent, implying that her MAJESTY means to recur to Recriminntion. This doctrine can never be admitted, and Lord GREY, who is favourable to her MAJESTY, expressly stated that no such subject could be received as any part of her de fence.- She is distinctly charged with offences of the most heinous nature, committed abroad, and she must clear herself of the charges without any reference to the conduct of his MA:Psi Y. even supposin g it to be such as might be excep tionable in the inferior classes of lite. Another circumstance seems to strengthen the idea that the QUEEN means to support her cause by matters that may have occurred its this country. On bet -8T real In town, she vehemently deulancied at. OPEN altd IMMEDIATE TEi9L , but 'in the course of subsequeut proceedings, she appeared !early to enter ieto c compromise, by which all trial would be avoided, and her character, of course, be sacrificed to her convenience. On the resump lion of the proceedings towards a trial, after her rejection of Mr. NVILBEEFORCE'S well-intended, but weak, injudicious, hopeless motion, which in its tendency would Lave been dishonourable to the QuEEN and to the Government if it had succeed ed, she then demanded time to send for witnesses to disprove the charges. But since the introduc tion of the Bill by Lord LIVERPOOL, she is again anxious for an IMMEDIATE TRIAL !! ! If she can proceed to au immediate trial, without the necessity of sending abroad for witnesses, why did she require time for that purpose ? And if those witnesses are necessary for her de fence, why will she hazard ber reputation by an imperfect vindication, when she knows that she will be allowed all due time to bring whatever evidence she may deem essential to her complete acquittal ? The question of re crimination then again recurs, and seems to be held forward as one of the intended grounds of her vindication —The Morning Chronicle of this day says, that her MAJESTY received the account of the proceedings against her with " that (ran. quit composure whichenothing but the conscious ness of innocence can impart.' Happy should we be to find that conscious innocence is in deed the source of her serenity. It adds, that " to the confidential friends who were present, she entered into some explanations most satisfac tory and convincing," Alas ! friends are very credulous ; they are inclined to believe as they wish ; they are disposed to flatter, and to avow a conviction which_ they do not fee!, and are too hypocritical or too timid to express their real sentiments.' We repe-it, that we shall be truly happy it her explanations should be deemed equally satisfactory and convincing to the world at large.—We shall then as reso lutely support her cause as we now support that of Justice, the honour of the Throne, and the character of the Country.—As to the Address presented to her MAJESTY by Sir FRANCIS BUR DETT and JOHN CAM HOBHOUSE, purporting to be an Address from the City of Westminster, we consider it, and so will the world consider it, as rather the Address of the Baronet and the Squire, and a tew of their deluded followers, compre hending a very insignificant portion, at best, of the real Electors and respectable Inhabitants of Westminster. As well might it be conceived that the WAITHMANS, the WooLEns, the FAVELLS, and other Brawlers of the Common Council, speak the sentiments of the CITY of LONDON, consist• frig of a vast proportion of the most opulent and most respectable Characters that can be found on the face of the globe.—We submitted to the stale quackery of issuing a Second Edition last night, at a late hour, in order to gratify the anxiety of the Public, but our Country Readers, we are as sured, will not require us to reprint what must necessarily hare been the crude effects of haste, now that they will have before them the au thentic Proceedings of P ar li ament . t CORN-ExCHANGR, JULY 7.—Having but little fresh Wheat at market this morning, prime samples of White from Essex, Obtained full as much as on Monday, and the demand was rather brisker for that description ; but the inferior• sorts continue as dull in sale, as they have been for some time past. Oats arc is. per quarter dearer, the supply being small. In Barley, Beans, and Peas, there is no alteration. The Doke and Duchess of CUMBERLAND, and the Doke of CAMBRIDGE, are expected to take their departure this day from Calais, the Royal Yacht being ready for that purpose. The Duchess of CAMBRIDGE being understood to he in a criti cal state of health at present, is nut to accompan y his Royal Highness. The Doke of YORK transacted military business with the KING yesterday, at his Palace, in Pall mall. Yesterday the Duchess of GLOUCESTER and the Princess SOPHIA visited his AlAsesTv. Viscount CASTLEREAGH had an audience of the KING yesterday. %Ye have reason to believe that there is no truth in any of the reports that have been circu lated within these few days respecting Mr. CAN NINO.— (Morning Post.) Five persons have arrived in town, under the care of a Messenger named AMIIBEGEE, who would not suffer any purron to be on hoard the vessel with him on crossing from Calais. It is under stood that these persons have been under the care of the Austrian Government for some time. Mr. GRATTAN , it seems, has declared his inten tion of petitioning the House of Commons against the return of Mr. FA's for Dublin.

Yesterday, at one o'clock, the High Bailiff Westminster, with Sir F. Braden and Mr. 11° ,` " house, waited on h er M a j esty w i t h t h e W es to ll , l '; seer Address, to which h e r M a j esty return ed ( P. followiog Answer : " This Address from the Inhabitant Householders of the , City and Liberty of Westminster, will be long treasured la te ; memory, as an indubitable proof of their regard,and a las tie , claim upon my gratitud e . Th e l anguage o f a ff ect i on far 1131 person, of devotion to my interest, and of zeal in my causer which appears to issue from their hearts, has made a de e : impression upon my own. In th e f ee li ng manner in syb i e . i t they mention Her, for wh o m th e in v i s ibl e s i g h o f gr ief s c ' never cease in my maternal breast, I cannot be insensibl e f : the homage which they pay to h e r memor y, an d t o the 0 134- which they offer to my regrets. • " It is now seven years since I received an Address fr ° the Inhabitant Householders of Westminster, in which ° id congratulated me upon my escape froin what they troll scribed as a nefarious conspiracy against my honour and rPI life. Upon that occasion my character was exonerated fr e : the load of calumny with which it had been oppressed, th e ' lg e my conduct had undergone only an ex-parte examinations 8 % though I had no means of facing my accusers, o r of be iii? heard in my defence. " The People of England then, almost universally , pressed their approbation of what they considered as the triumph of rectitude and innocence over perfidy and fa l " hood.—From that hour to the present, I have been the 1i 44 4' tim of a similar conspiracy, which has been incited t j ,.` same mot i ves, and prosecuted with the same views; with increased violence and aggravated malignity. New se more appalling efforts have been made to destroy that CI racier, which bad resisted so many former attempts; but, rejoice that I now find, a s I, a t th a t ti me f oun d, th e POPO, of Westminster, uninfluenced by the powerful inachinalit'l of my enemies, and animated by the same sentiment, al' ie of they then expressed, that every subject, until convicted guilt, had an undoubted right to retain the reputations tb‘ rights, and immunities, of innocence. r " In the present p er il ous cr i s i s o f my fate, I am supP°—fei , by that courag e w hi c h ar i ses f rom t h e consciousness o f re' tude ; and I feel that the English people will never s uffer II : injured Queen to appe a l i s va i n e ith er to t h e i r j us ti c e of to their humanity. I am convinced that in this land of lib ertf no oppression can be practised, and that to be upright is tu bs secure. I n the warm desire which the people of Westminster hare expressed for the consideration of my honour, they hart er hibited a striking testim o ny o f t h e i r l oya l ty to t h e King; 1 : the honour of his M a j es ty must f or ever b e id en tified w ith that of his Queen. " My first wish is to prove, that my character has he*" till ; justly traduced ; my next is to terminate my days among high-minded people of this country, to whose affectionate sympathy I am, at present, indebted for so much of the chee t fulness which I feel, and of the support which I possess, O de . the pressure of such complicated wrongs, and such acc ur° lated persecutions."
