The Morning Chronicle of this day, 'Which . cOntains theSe Protests, mot being able to ° ffer any sound argument against their intrinsic merits, contents itself with sneering at " the gram mar and composition of Aliese DoCumentS," and' with insinuations that two or three of the Noble Subscribers acted from interested motives. Such insinuations are too base and common to make any impression on liberal Kninds. The truth is, that the CHARACTER, the HONOUR of the Courf- Tay, demanded a different issue. We have no doubt that the Earl of LIVERPOOL acted from the purest motives, in wishing, if pos .., 'aole, to put a stop to popular clamour, to the conflicts of Party, and to political divisions IU private life. But the' mere ground of expe ' diency is unworthy of a Great Nation, and it is • assuredly not fit that CONVICTED GUILT should enjoy the triumph of ESTABLISHED INNOCENCE ! 14 ' r e have received commendations from several quarters on the guarded manner in which we con ' d ucted ourselves through the whole of the Trial, th at We might not bias our Readers either way,. but. leave them to form their own judgment upon t he evidence on both sides ; and one of our Cu rrespondents, to whom we have been in debted for 'many valuable favours, congra tulates us " on "the admirable way in which have piloted THE SUN through the narrows b etween King Rock and Queen Sands." Such for bearauCethowever was no more than a conformity to discretion, candour, and obvious duty; but it is k to* time to speak out, and on the decision of a , 4 rge, majority of one 'of the branches of the Le gislature, constituting the pureSt tribunal of Na tional Justice, we feel fully justified in adding ° Ur humbl e c on c urren c e t o th a t decision, viz. l:hat the Charges against TILE QUEEN were fully supported by the evidence in general, a cid even by the very witnesses brought for 'Ward by her own Defenders. It now remains to be determined, under such circumstances, what s hall be done respecting her Claims to a Royal tesidence, and to all the , honours and privileges, to Which she would undoubtedly have a just r ight, if her character and conduct had been ef fectually vindicated to the satisfaction of man kihd• On this head, we shall resume our cauti forbearance, leaving the matter to. the decision ° f Parliament, which must, of course, be consult ed 'on the occasion, just observing, that it becomes t he Government no longer to act on motives of te mPorary policy, but to reflect on the dignity THE CROWN, and the situation of his MA -4411r in relation to his Consort, and finally to a dopt such measures as must be demanded by t he honou"r ot the _Country, and the expectations (4 mankind. • A letter from BostOn, of the 13th of October, :'ates tiS follows :—Letters have been' received 'ere from Fr ance and Spain, giving every assur 411Ce that the Florida ipiestion, as well as , our , i. e ?lnraerci a l difficulties with France, will be set tl j t ed on t erms o f equ it y and u3tiCe. We certainly ti 'euld be glad t o see' these promises realized. On the night of the 19th of August, a shock of an ear thquake was felt at llonduras and at O mo a. O n the Spanish Main the shock *as more severely fel t ; at St. Padro the church and several, d wel !ug. houses were thrown down, and-several lives -w ere lost. The earth opened in several places, 41 . 1 d some, hills were thrown into_ the 'river. It is urged in defence of the abrupt conclusion of the proCoedings . against THE QUEEN, that if tle Bill had come before th e H ouse o f Co mmon s dis cussions, eff orts o f P arty m i g h t h ave prolonged th e tlis cassions, and kept the Country in commotion for upwards of two years. Yesterday morning the Earl of LIVERPOOL t ame to town, from his seat at Combe Wood, and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER came to town, from Blackheath, to attend a Cabinet summoned to meet at two &clock, atthe °reian Office. Th e C ounc il sat in deliberation ti llabLit half-past three. The 'accouchenteizt of the Duchess of CLARENCE 4 expected to take place about Christmas. . 4 ba. MgLEon.—.An article announcing the "th of this Gentleman appeared in THE SUN of o.(isday. We have since received the following o e f trib u t e t o hi s memory f rom a resp e cta bl e _ wh rr o ",sPondent, to ,whom he was better known, and ' 8 fully competent to estimate his ch arac t er , ea , t oe. candid and just to bestow unm er it e d j - „ - i rl iendation:—" On ,the 9th inst. expi re d -I P 4.

AxECDOTIL—Dr. F orth, a gentleman well t'Town for hiunour, good sense, and promptness repartee, as well'as•for his musical taste, hav -4,g. accompanied w ith hi s vo i ce one o f t h e a i rs the last Gloucester Music Meeting, a Dandy 'r ear him addressed him as follows :—" Sir, we notSa p a y t o h ear sour singing; " "' W ell, then, ,t 1 the Doctor, you have it in the bargain.'' ~~ Kl 4. . ‘ d 1; Gs. 9 / • .•••• ~ y", jJ: J 0 ftgpr;l Pitti..rtEt§, Moved, That the farther consideration, of the, Bill be adjourned to this day six months. Which being objected, the question was put thereupon. It was, resolved in the affirmative. DISSENTIENT _ Because no-sutlicient ground imiearS for the abandonment of the Bill founded on the charges against her Majesty the QuEF.N, which had undergone the most solemn and ac curate investigation ; charges in which the morality of the country was deeply interested, and oti which all the Peers, Spiritual and Temporal, who delivered their opinions, with very few exceptions, declared their conviction of her guilt ; and the abandonment of which is a dere. liction which may bring into disrespect not only the cha racter of our highest Court of Judicature, but that of the Nation itself. And it is with the greatest concern we observe the extreme want of consideration for the Sovereign-, by the dereliction of proceedings so necessarily brought on, by which a wife declared by the House of Peers to have • been guilty of adulterous intercourse with a menial servant, and of a conduct the most depraved, is to remain his Queen Consort; thus lowering the dignity of the Crown, and embarrassing the country With far greaterdifliculties than those which seem to have induced his Majesty's Governifient to relinquish the pro secution of the Bill. SHF.FFIELD. . INOATHUMBERLAND. LOTHIAN. WILLIAM. Adhuc, 10 Die Novembris, 1820. DISSENTIENT, Because, that in a case of this nature, in which this House appears to us, by its Reiolution to read. the Bill a second time, by . its proceedings, in the Committee upon the Bill and the Report, and by its Resolution to read the Bill a third time, to have strongly manifested, that, in the judgment of a Majority of this House; the guilt imputed in the Preamble of the Bill had ,been clearly proved, we think that considerations affect ing the justice and honour of the House made it at that the Bill should pass. _ _ , Because this "appears to us to have been the more fit in a case in which so many Peers, who voted against the third reading of the Bill, had declared their conviction that the guilt imputed had been proved. Because we also think that the House ought not, in consi dering whether the Bill should pass after its having been read a third time, to have been influenced by any regard•to what might take place in an inquiry in the other House of Parliament, as was suggested in the course of our debates, save only that we deem it to have been just that the party accused shduld have bad an opportunity of calling for the judgment of both Houses, when this House, proceeding by a Bill of Pains and Penalties, had expressed in its Resolutions a judgment unfavourable to that Party. Because we cannot but apprehend, that the Resolution to adjourn ,the further consideration of the Bill will lead to great misapprehension► as to the real opinion of the Majority of the Peers of this House, as it is to-he collected fr4tn the antecedent proceedings properly understood, with reference to the question upon the guilt imputed to the Party accused in the PLeatuble of the Bill. BR IDGE WATER. VE UL A Al. SH A FTES B URY. WILLIAM. .............. II 1. DISSENTIENT, Because it has been clearly established by undeniable evi dence, and confitmed by the votes and declarations of a great majority of 11-10 Hoare of ,Peers,. that the Princess of Wales (now Queen) did commit adul'ery with% a foreigner, and because I know of no other Tribunal where this crime against the State and against locicty can be, punished, or the repetition of the offence be preented. 2dly, Because the failure of this Bill, unaccompanied by any other Legislative vr Judicial Proceeding, must encourage the commission of crime, and leave a great stain upon the ho. nour of the' Throne, and the morals of the present gene ration. HARRIS. WILLIAM. IV., DIbSENTI ENT, _ - Because the guilt of her Majesty the Queen having. after the fullest investigation and _consideration of the evidence adduced for and against tier Nlajesty,hee.n wade out and esta blished to 1 he entire satisfaction of my honour and conscie n ce, and the Bill of Pains and Penalties having, in the most solemn and deliberate manner, passed through its different stages, and received the sanction 'of this House to the third reading, I cannot allow of its abandonment at this period of toe sedu lous and exemplary attendance and labours of this / House, without recording my Protest against a measure which in volves a dereliction of the sacred duty of administering justice by this House, and which sutlers the. most abandoned and licentious conduct to remain, if not triumphant, at least un punished, to the disgrace of our Country, in derogation. of the honour and dignity of this tloute, and which tends to lower the first tribunal -in th'e world in the estimation of this Nation, of Europe, and of posterity. POWIS. WILLIAM, For the above Reasons. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. On the sitting of the Court this morning, Ma jor Cartwright, T. G. Wooler, G. Edmonds, and IV. G. Lewis, convicted of Conspiracy and S.- ditio❑ at the last Warwick Assizes,' appeared on the floor to receive the Judgment a the Court, but the ATTORNEY-GENERAL being attending in the Court of Chancery,.the proceeding was not en tered into. It is understood that the parties will attend on Monday, when Judgment will be pronounced. SEDITIOUS LIBEL.—Jane Car attended with Bail, to an Information, filed by his Majesty's. Attorney-General, for publishing a Seditious Li bel, in a Work called the " Republican," in June last; the Bail were, Wm:BENBow, printer, and JOHN PLANT, broker. FOR THE SUN. At a Meeting of the Inhabitants of the Parish . of Shoreditch, held on Thursday, 16th Novem ber, the Answer of her MAJESTY to the lath Address was read amid the acclamations of the Meeting, when it was moved, that the same be elegantly engrossed and framed, and hung up in a conspicuous part of the Church.—(Loud applause.) London, I Stli Nor. 1820 SIR--I send you the above Extract from the Proceedings at a.Meeting of the Inhabitants (I mean the Radical part) of Shoreditch, and knowjng your wish to support the Church and State in all its branches, I trust you will give publicity to this profane Resolution to-place the QUEEN'S Answer in the Church of that Parish, in the hope that it will not escape the notice of the Bishop of the Diocese, before their design is carried into effect. A CONSTANT READER. To the Editor of THE SUN. . *.,,* Though we have inserted the foregoing article, we ought to state that, in referr tag to an account of thP Meeting in question, we do not find any notice of the alleged Motion. We hope, therefore, that owl- Correspondent has been mis informed; but if not, we trust that the Clergy man, of the Parish will interfere to 'prevent such a monstrous desecration. F. o _i TRY.

AitcHBISHOP IViIuNTAIN.—In the reign -of George 11. the See of York falling vacant, his Majesty being at a loss for - a fit person to appoint to the exalted situ ation, asked the opinion of the Reverend Doctor Mountain, who had raised himself, by his remarkably facetious temper. from being the son, of a beggar, t to the See of Durham.— The Doctor wittily. replied, " Had'st thou faith as a grain of mustar&seed, thou wouldst say to this - Mountain (at the same time laying his hand on his breast) be removed, anti. he laid into the Sea (See)." His Majesty laughed heartily, and forth with conferred the:preferment on the Doctor. - • Astonishing . S ecimen. of a Good Digestion.—On Friday, a coachman, of Nianvliustoi, known by the name of Lung Jar 4, undertook to devour seven,pounds of undressed tripe, in the short spas e of 50 minutes, for the trilling wager of a2s, which he accomplished within the time, (without the wonted accompaniment. a bread and salt) and afterwards pnettiuk if - his regular meal, at one o'clock. A Singular itlisnonter.--,--An eminent antiquary (the late learned Dr. Vincent) observed that the sign of the Swan with two Necks, was a remarkable instance of ig norance and error. The Swan, observed this eminent scholar, is a Royal bird, and to mark him .as such, two nicks in the soft membrane of the bill.are cut, that, should he be stolen, or wandering, he might - be recognized. The mis-repres'ent ing of.this beautiful bird with two Necks, has long . astonished the eye of the .public, and upheld the old proverb, that " two heads are better than one." A Council was held yesterday evening, at the Royal Actidemy, for the purpose of examining the works of the Students in the difrerent Schools of Art, who are this year Candidates for the Me dals, and selecting those whom the Council may deem worthy to compete for the Prizes, which will be adjudged at a General Meeting of the Royal Academicians, previous to the Christmas vacation. BURGLARY.-----Four thieves effected an entrance' into the house o f R. Paisley, Esq. Monument-place, near the new burying-ground, in Mary-le-bone fields, on Thursday, but they were put to flight by the alarm of a terrier dog as soon as they had scaled the walls. They passed a huge yard-dog unmolested, and got into the parlour passage, when they were distinctly seen by a servant, who set Coe alarm bell ringing, and they retreated with a pistol-shot after them. ATTEMPTED .SUICIDE.---Thursday .evening, a little before dusk, a middle-aged man, .yespecta bly dressed, was observed by some of the. crew of a vessel in the Regent's Canal, at Limehouse, to loiter for some time by its banks, havipg his hands extended, and at intervals he was. heard .to vociferatt in a very loud tone some unintelligible words. The spectators, who ve r y a tt en ti ve ly watched his motions, seeing him at length give a sudden spring, and jump into the canal, a boat was inunediatelyput out,, and the unhappy man was soon rescued, without receiving any other in, jury titan a severe ducking. He was conveyed to a .neighbouring public-house, where he stated himself to be a native . of Italy, to have, lately come to this country, and that having ,met with some disappointments prompted him "to at tempt the rash act from which Providence had rescued lira. • ARREST FOR, lifOr TREASON. lie _Powl,tvert,"Friday Oar Readers will recollect that at the time Of the Cato -street Plot, a person named - John Patiti was,stated to be one of the principal conspira tors, and a re*ard of 9..001. was offered by the GoVernment for his apprehension. This mad contrived to chide the utmost .vigilanCe of the Polke, and it was long . ago 'Concluded' tlAat he.had succeeded in gettingout.of the cotintry. Two or three days ago.; however, Some circumstances came to light which revived the exertions of the officers. Ruthven, Ellis, and Westcott, were ert.;. tirely engaged in ptirSuit of 'hint the whole of yes terday, and at nine o'clock at night Ellis and Westcott received certain information that he was at a house in Short's=gardens, Drury lane. They accordingly proceeded thither, and after waiting a silo / ft tithe they saw • Pfilin coming, from the house in company with . two or three other men. They suffered the whole to pass them a few paces, and then Ellis sprang upon film pinioning his arms firmly behind whilst WestCott faced, him with a drawn cutlass. The •pti . sonei seemed to intend a stout resistance; thougb'bis companions all ran away, but Westcott seizing one of _ his arms, and thereby leavlng Ellis at liberty to draw a piStol from his belt—he quietly surrendered and was brought to the office. Mr: I.3laNtE was out at the time; but information of the capture having been sent to he came instantly and took a short examination of 'the prisoner's iden, To this purpose Ruthven deposed, that trom information he- had received, he 'firmly believed the prisoner to he the pc; son named Patin, Whose name etas So fi'equently mentioned on the trials of Thigtlewood, Ins, Brunt, &c., for, %chose ap. prehension the Govermiwnt offered a reward at that time. One of the patrol, named Avis ) wore that he knew the prisoner to be the man, from having seen him as a soldier in the East London Militia: Mr. .13InIrr. now asked the - prisoner his name, and he replied that it was John Palin. The fol- , lowing dialogue then ensued: — Mr. Blatt" - E-" I presume yoti know the charge upon which you are brought here ?" Palin—" No, Ido not—l ain riot at all aware of it." Mr. BittNlE---- 44 Well, you hare given us . a great deal of trouble i Mr. Malin ; but however, here you are, and it is my duty to tell you, that you are charged with being deeply implicated with Thistle*ood, Jugs, and others, whom you well know, in the crimes and conspiracies for which he and his wretched confederates suffered." Palin—" I deny the charge, and , shaltbe able o rebut Mr. Bt RNIE.- fic I do not wish you to ackn'ow- ledge Palin.--" I declare that I bad no connection. with them. None,*hatever," 1 hope you may be able to prove it." . _ A warrant of commitment to the House of C 01. ., reetion, Cold-bath-fields, was then made out, aid he was sent to that prison in .a hackney-coach, set CUrely guarded. He be exainined day next, and no doubt 1143 examination-will take place at Lord Sidmouth's office. Patin is a ,than abOut 45 years of age; rather above . the middle stature ;,, ai a hiliOus, meagre countenauee, and meanly dressed. B .
