He remembered the Princess and Bergami both taking leave at another time, and kissing at parting. .• Did Witness know the Villa Bergami ? Yes; it was Bart,- Ira once, but changed to Bergami now. It resembled a good • farm house. Bergami bought it, and he and the Princess •wto e Owe about six weeks. De-tribe the bed-rooms?

Alter some observations from the Lord Chancellor, Earl Grey, Lord Grenville!, the Earl of Lauder dale, Lord Erskine, and the Eall of Liverpool, their Lord ships thought proper, at five o'clock, to adjourn. It was settietl, though not without some opposition, that the House should henceforth sit every day from ten till four, as it was: impossible fur the Interp ret er , tif sit longer without injury to their health and dis Service to thisimportant cause. Adjourned at 5 o'clock.—ller Majesty did no fc-enter. the House in the course of the day. HOUSE OF' COMMONS. The SPE tKER took the Chair shortly before four o'clock, and he -afterwards informed the Mouse, that Henry Grattan, Esq., complaining of an undue Election for Dublin, and Mr. Brady, regarding Colchester, had failed toenter into the requisite recognizances. Order for taking the Petitions into consideration accordingly dis charged. MESSAGE FROM THE LORDS. A Bill was brought down from the House of Lprds, to indemnify the Earl of Yarborough who had sat and voted in that House without having taken the oaths. It was forthwith taken into consideration, put through all its stages, and passed. PRVICEEDINGS AGAINST THE QUEEN. Lord CAsTLEREAurn, with the view of determin ing the propriety and the period of. further ad journment, moved that a Committee be appointed to exam:ne the Lords' Journals as to any pro ceeding relative to the conduct of the Queen. Mr. TIERNEY said, he should not oppose this motion, but he protested against such proceeding Lein& construed into approbation of the mode of trial. Lord CASTLEREAGH . observed, that no such acquiescence could be inferred from 'approving of this motion.—(lfear, hear !) Committee appointed, and directed to report forthwith. RUSSIAN NOTE. Lord JOHN IttissELL asked, adverting to the Russian Note touching the Spanish Revolution— ttn at which most persons justly rejoiced— whether this Country was under any engagement to 'co-operate with Russia and the other Allied PoWers in any interference with the affairs of Spain, should such interference be determined upon . - Lord CASTLEREAGH had no objection to an isver the question, or rather the argumentative case, which had, been put ; but he must oh serve, . that he did not understand the Note to declare the expediency of interfering to check the 'Spanish Revolution ; he considered it as ex pressing a strong opinion against a viol e nt c h ange produc e d by m ilit ary aid. As to the question, this Country was under no engagement or under standing to co-operate with the Allied Powers, even should they act hostilely towards Spain ; the only Treaty, and that was before Parlia ment, was that of 1815. That only engaged the Allied Powers, in the event of a revolutionary commotion in France, to " deliberate " on the propriety of interfering in concert. Lord JOHN RUSSELL expressed himself satis fied with the answer. MT. BROGDEN presented the Report of the Com mittee appointed to examine the. Lords' Journals, which set forth what proceedings the other House had taken respecting the Bill of Pains and Pe- ADDRESSES OF CONDOLENCE. Lord CASTLEREAGH then ;rose, and said, that previous to moving the question of Adjournment, he should propose that an Address of Condolence be presented to his Majesty, on the death of the Duchess of York. • Mr. G. BENNETT bore testimony to the excel lency of the Duchess's chardcter. Having lived in the neighbourhood of her residence most of his life, he had experienced frequent opportuni ties of observing her conduct. Her hand and heart had ever been open to perform the most useful charities.--(llear : Motion agreed to, as was a like Motion for a similar Address to the Duke of York. THE KING'S 4EWS. Mr. IronuousE presented a Petition from 170 persons in the neighbourhood of Charing-cross, Leicester-fields, &c. complaining of the severe injuries and losses sustained by them by the clos ing of the King's Mews.—llead, and ordered to be printed. AGRICULTUR A L AVERAGE. Sir J. NEWPORT inquired whether it was true that the ports were open for the introduction of foreign grain, by such an arrangement of the re turns as to make the proceeding depend on the fractiOnal part of a penny ? Mr. F. Ito HINSON' replied, that the statements respecting certain returns were not correct; after which an extended conversation ensued, in which Mr. Western, Mr. If. Sumner, &c. took part, the la:ter conjuring Ministers to prepare a corrected Corn Bill, to amend the node of taking the ave rages. ADJOURNMENT.-THE QUEEN. Lord CASTLEREAGH moved, that the House at its rising adjourn to September 18, Monday four weeks. At that ti.ne they might be able to judge when it would be requisite to meet for the purpose of proceeding, in the event of any mea sure corning from the other House ; at least a fortnight ought to be given, to afford time for the arrival of Members, as the fullest possible attendance would be desirable. Mr. TIERNEY said, he understood that on September 18, they were only to meet to name another day to assemble to proceed with any matter that might be brought before them— (Hear, bear !) Lord F. OsnciaNE Said he should use every possible effort to prevent the Bill from polluting even the threshold of that House.--(Hear !)— But should such a Bill be unhappily received, no power on earth should induce him to attend and witness such a mockery' of justice; rather than attend he would vacate his seat. As a Court of Judicature, that. House had" damned" itself—he was forced, to use a strong expression —by .passing. the Grenville Act; therefore he said that the Bill, if entertained there, would be " a mockery of justice." With, these impres sions on his mind, he moved, as an amendment, thk an Address be presented to- the King to prorogue the. Parliament till it should be deemed expedient to re-assemble both Houses for the dis patch of public business. • Mr..llonnouss seconded the amendment for an Address. He would do any thing to - get rid of the monstrous measure that was now degrad ing the House of Lords. He did so too :from other motives—to escape from all that roilitary array which hedged round the House, and which appeared even in the neighbouring apartment. Mr. TIERNEY did not see how they could very well agree to this Address, since tbe measure complained of was not before their. House. Lord F. OSBORNE observed, that he did not ish to , press his amendment to a division, as some Hon. It rie i nds seemed to be against it„; he had propos e d i t on constitutional grounds. Mr. WESTERN expressed that the Bill would never find its way into that House. Lord A. llAmix.'iosr declared, 'that he had the most insuperable objections to the prosecution Under 'any circumstances, especially when he re ccollected how the Queen had been pursued, not for six years, but twenty-six years. He, there fore, thought it was impossible to do justice to the Queen. Lord CASTLEREAGH deprecated a' partial dis- Cussion of this important question, and- a full discussion of it was impossible, as the facts were not before them. The House had before determin ed against being dragged into garbled discussion, and nothing had since happened to warrant the chang e of, that determination. As to the Ad dress, he thought it would be rather an ,unjust exercise "of their privileges, to ask the Crown to prorogue Parliament, when the other House had commenced, and was engaged in' a judicial in quiry. The case had been opened, the facts were dis Closed, and could even the friends of the Queen desire the case to stop here I—Could the friends of the Queen desire to quash, to put an extinguisher on the proceedings as they now stood 1. It would be to place her in the cruellest poSsible situation. To agree to the Address would not to promote justice, but to submit to intimidation,—(Hear, hear!) Lord A. ll.i.mivroN explained, that he had not originated the present question. Mr. WunEaroncE repeated his regret that the wish of the House had not been successful with the Queen, and still deplored that it was deemed necessary to proceed. But should the measure come to that House, he feared that its considera tion 11 - Mild be interminable.—(Hear !) Mr. BaounnAsi said, he would have remained silent had he not feared that it might be miscon strued. Ile had' entreated the House to pause before it was too late to stop ; by Mr. Wilber force3s motion, that " pause" had been after wards gained ; but now it was too late to think of paasing. The period had gone by. The case had been opened, and with a degree of particu larity most conspicuous ; and that witness had been examined who was to prove almost the whole of their case. He had not been cross-exa mined, Besides, all these matters had been pub lished to the world. To stop the proceedings, therefore, now would be a .crying injustice to wards her Majesty, and he hoped that the House would not entertain the Address. 'rhe amendment was negatived without a di vision,. the main question carried, and the House adjourned to September 18. CASE TN POINT.—An eminent Barrister had some years ,ago a case sent to him for an opinion. The case stated was the most preposterous and improbable that ever occurred to the mind of man, and concluded by asking whether, under such circumstances, an action would lie ? He took his pen and wrote " Yes, if the WITNESSES will LIE 100, but not otherwise." The indiposition of Mr. BROUGHAM, which occasioned his absence from the late political dihner at Gateshead, defeated one, of _the prin cipal objects of that meeting. Mr. BEAumoNT, who.presided at the PITT Dinner at Newcastle last year, and who then lauded the principles,of the deceased Statesman, now filled the Whig chair, and spok e on the opposite side. M r . Lambton gave some further proofs of the.sin cerity of his declared intention to bury in obli viol" all animosity arising out of the late election, by again reviling the clergy ; and after hinting - that he had not forgotten his late defeat at the Sunderland News Room, he launched out into a violent tirade against Ministers. Mr. Witimmits, the Barrister, followed in the same strain, and thus " the Whigs, who have no power," enter tained themselves by abusing those who • have power!---(Durhain Advertizer.) The rapid sale of the present Lottery, and the great favour which the Public extend towards it, maybe at tributed in a great degree to the abolition of C!asses in the Scheme. In former Lotteries one member deCided the fate of another : this was objected to by many persons who wished to adventure on their own individual luck, which was impos sible upon that plan, unless they bought Two Tickets instead Of One. But in this bates y each Number has its own sepa rate chance, distinct from every other. There ate Two of 20,0001. and 28 ot h er Capitals, Stirling Money, all t o be Drawn on the 33th of August.

This morning the LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack at a few minutes before ten o'clock, after which prayers were read by the Lord Bishop'of LANDAFF. The names of their . Lordships having been called over by the Clerk, • The LORD CHANCELLOR ordered the Counsel for the Crown to proceed with the examination of their Witnesses. Theodore Atojoeci was then called in. After a short re capitulation of the evidence of yesterday, he proceeded to state, that he was with her Majesty, then Princess of Wales, at Carlsruhe, Vienna, &c. and in every place where they atom, the Princess selected chambers for herself and Bergami, which were in a near situation to each other. The apart ments were generally selected by Bergami in presence of the Princess. The apartments were so contrived and selected, as to have a. direct communication with each other. They were always at a great distance from the rest of the family. The utmost . familiarity existed between her and Bergami. He had the liberty of entering her room at any time without previous notice,—a liberty, which none of the other, servants durst think of taking. The Princess and Bergami were generally travelling in the same carriage. Witness had the task of preparing the.carriages at. all times when the 'Princess was about to go any where. Witness fou3d a bottle in the Princess's carriage. • Knew it imme diately to be one that Bergami used, when travelling. When in Greece, the conduct of the Princess of Wales was exactly similar to what had taken place elsewhere. Her apartments were always near those of Bergami.. . Tire rest of the house hold were kept at a great distance, while every kindness and attention was shewn to Bergami. Remembers the Masque rade at the grand tet6 which was -given, and which was at tended by her Majesty and Bergami. Does not remember her Majesty being visited by any of the Nobility. Does nol know whether she might not have been visited by them After being three years in her Majesty'slervice, Witness le it at Pesaro, and went into the service of an Italian Marquiss, with whom be remained about five months. (Here Witness was about to repeat a conversation which he had with Berganti on the subject. in . question.— Mr. Brougham objected to this being received as evidence. He contended that, by the rules of evidence, nacommunica tion could be made of such conversation, unless it had taken place in the presence of all the parties. Here the case was not so, and he therefore thought the House-ought not in jus tice to allow it to be received.—The Lord Chancellor held the objection to be well-founded, and the conversation of course dropt.) The witness was cross-examined by Mr.,BROUGHAM, who with reference to the attendance of the Queen upon Bergarni when he was confined in consequence of the kick from a horse, asked several questions as to whether her Majesty at tended upon others when they were sick; the witness replied, that he did not remember. The Solicitor-General objected, that by this cross-examination Mr. Brougham assumed as facts that the various persons alluded to had been ill, which he was not entitled to do. The- Lord Chancellor.coneurred in the objectiOn, and Mr. Brougham agreed to vary the form of his questions. He asked whether any other, persons of the Household were ill. The witness replied, he did not re- member. Some doubt was then expressed as to the meaning . _ of the Italian phrase interpreted to wean that he did nut re member, and it was at length decided that the accurate mean ing was he did not know. Questions were then asked witness about the attack made upon the house. Mr. Brougham asked whether it was not the Baron d'Ompteda's gang, but this question was not' allowed to be put; witness said he fired upon one of the robbers. - The QUEEN had not come into the .House at h a lf-past twelve, but came occasionally to the door to give instructions to her Counsel as to putting questions to the witness. As the investigation of the Charges against THE QUEEN has now proceeded to the examina- tion of Witnesses, it would be in the highest de gree unbecoming in us to make any observations on a subject which is in the hands of the Legis lature, and through the medium of the Public Press is open to the People at large. Nor shall we, like some of our Competitors, attempt to as sign motives to THE QUEEN for the extraordi nary impression which the appearance of the first Witness produced on her feelings yesterday, satis fied with stating the proceedings fully, and leaving the Public to form their own judgment on the occasion. Much credit is. due 'to Lord HoLLAsn for making an inquiry of Ministers ) whether there ,~I e i 6 was any change in our Relations with Spoilt ' ill ' to disturb the Peace of this Country, in c°l quence "of the Emperor of RUSSIA'S recent va Manifesto.—The Earl of LIVERPOOL gave a i tisfactory answer to this inquiry last week, on a repetition of the question yesterday the same Noble Lord, answered more fully there Was nothing existing likely to interrupt pacific Relations with other Powers.—Lordj i RUSSELL also made the'same inquiry yesterda: the House of Commons, and received a sil answer from Vl5COllllt CASTLEB.EAGIIa The discussion last night in the House of ll mons produced the confession of Mr. finovo o ; of his b e i ng th e Ad v i ser o f the Address preseu t by order of the House of Commons to the Wl° on the 24th of last June ; but it is a singular that that Gentleman was in the very small minori f on that occasion,.and Mr. WILBERFORCE, act ° under the auspices of the Legal Adviser of till QUEEN, had not to boast of his support in the (9 vision !!!

F or our own part, we cannot g ll credit to so infamous a rumour. An erroneous opinion having crept into the O V e ! Regiment (si x com p an i es o f w hi ch are now quartered at )1.!,, clesfield), th a t th e men were allowed to volunteer for ge7 ral service, a few soldiers of the Regiment contemplated el, a measure, and d e p u t e d a P r i vate of the Corps to make 7( communication to the Commanding Officer. The person::4 prated conducted himself in so unsoldier-like a manner, the Commanding Officer ordered a Court-Martial, butin vious to the sentence being made known, a party, conin,_ r of those w h o b a d vo l unteered, aided by a few men of character, app e a r t o h ave b een d i sposed to rescue the toner, if brought to the usual punishment. Under such cfs cumstances, Lieut.-Colonel Austin resorted to the prutie, measure of reporting the case to the General Officer 07 4 , manding, who immediately took proper precaution for cr i i rying into effect th e intended punishment--The Sentence, the Court Martial wan accordingly put into execution ort• it turday morning last, in presence of the troops stationed Macclesfield and other places near to that town, wbo were 5 raded for that purpose, and no disposition whatever in fag of the culprit was shown by the 90th Regiment. ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE.—A sort of warfar e has arisen between the Manager of Drury-10 0 Theatre and of the English Opera House, vill ° have attacked each other in. notices on their te:, spectiv e pl ay -h ouse bi lls. The cause of O w contention is the re-opening of Drury-10! Theatre, for the purpose of showing Mr. ligA' in his round of characters before he departs America ; and, consequently, the Manager bE the English Opera House considers this re-open i ing as an intrusion upon his brief summer seaso* Last night, in consequence of this warfare, a net piece was brought forward at the latter Theatre , entitled Patent Seasons, consisting chiefly of s u humorous Parody o f some S ongs i n T he Begga r Opera, applicable to the cause of the dispute!
