The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat a few minutes before tet o'clock, after which - prayeri' wereA4o.by tht , Lord Bishop of BRISTOL. The Earl of Ihattowny was excused on account of *, S'eviete indisposition. At 14 minutes after ten, the CoUnsel were tailed in. The ATT oxx Y-GE E said,that he thought :47 , it his duty now to state that he ; had received a letter from:Milan, within the last half hour, by which lie had learned that the witnesses whom he, expected would take a longer tithe-than he anticipated their Lordships would grant. lie had. : therefore, humbly to request their Lord shigs to allow him to withdraw his application. The Loan CHANCELLOR said, that the Attor ney-General would not have done his duty, iiht L-1.3. not made this application, and he had acted - y 'right in withdrawing it.. Mr. BROUGiI Alt observed, 'that he had now to put a . few questions to Theodore Majocci, who was accordingly ordered to be' , cross-examined. The Earl of LAUDERDALE complained, the Abe minutes of the evidence were very inaccurate, and he hoped that an appendix' of errata or cor roctions would be given. The Earl of LIVERPOOL remarked, that it was certainly desirable that the minutes,if destined to • so down to posterity, should be a faithful record. (Hear!) • Mr. Baouan.tx now complained of part of Dumont's evidence as recorded in the minutes, ,and hoped that it would be eXplinged. It was proper to the ends of justice that this should be the case, so far as related to the story which Bergami related to the Princesi. Cross-examination_ of Najocci.

THE QUEEN. —However sincerely we may have deprecated the proceedings against her Majesty, as an event fraught with mischief and danger, it has never entered into our calculation, that am ple justice would not be done to her by the high tribunal before which she stands. Besides the security which the cause of justice possesses, in that high and honowable feeling inherent in British nobility, we may likewise add, that they themselves stand at the Bar of national opinion; the whole of that evidence by which their deci sion must be determined, is presented. to the open view of every Englishman ; and thus guarantees of the most unequivocal kind ex ist, thr.t the result will be satisfactory. The conduct of the Earl of Liverpool and others, have evinced the most unequivocal regard to sub stantial justice in favour of her Majesty. His Lordship in the debate of yesterday week, said, be felt it essential to state, that unlimited pecu niary means were at the disposal of the Queen's professional agents for the purposes of her Majesty's defence—that with regard to Foreign Governments every influence which could be exercised, to procure any witnesses,, would also be enforced for the witnesses on the beialf of her Majesty; but, that on no other grounds would he consent to bear any part in forwarding the present dis tressing inquiry is also to be remarked, that the 1-louse has conceded to the Queen's Counsel the utmost latitude of their claims. in reference to the cross-examination of witnesses for the Bill,. by which they may not only cross-examine im►nediately after the exami nation in chief, but subsequently recal them, and afterwards produce evide►►ce to invalidate their credibility. Much has been said against the harshness of the measure in refusing to her Ma jesty in the- first instance a list of witnesses. All the disadvantage which this refusal could create, would be to defer for a time, and not to destroy, the means of her justification. Certainly in the end, it will be for her Majesty's advantage ; for after the evidence for the prosecution is closed, it is proposed to give the -Queen her own time. to procure countervailikg - evidence, against which the Crown can neither demur, nor offer con trary proof. - We have before protested against comments in the present state of the proceeding and we shall . therefore only just remark, that if the examinations have in the first instance pro duced unfavourable impressions, the cross-exam► - nations have potently tended to remove them. We now particularly allude to the evidence of the first witness Majocci, and that of Louisa Dumont. The proceedings of the Lords contained iM our paper of this week will furnish our readers with the depositions of the latter; and to these we beg to refer them. It has been our anxious wish to connect the reports with accuracy, and we shall still continue to pursue the most impartial line of conduct, until the unhappy business shall be brought to a termination.

SOLEAI QUIS DICERE FiILSUM AUDEAt LONDON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER. 7, 189.0, It is evident from the conduct of those Public Journals which espouse the Cause of Tut QUEEN, that the spirit of Party has made them dead to all sense of morality and justice, insomuch as to be indifferent even to the appearance of it. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL has applied for time to produce more Witnesses, Whose testimony he declares to be important to the Case. These Witnesses had approached near to this Country, but learning the ill-treatment which the other Witnesses had received on their arrival at Dover, and probably hearing of the infamous manner in which those other• Witnesses. had been assailed in the Factious Journals of this country, particularly The Old Times, they sud denly retreated, and it was difficult to trace However, when found, and receiv. ng assurances of protection from the Bri tish Government, they consented to come and give their testimony on the occasion. If de pendence is to be placed on the evidence al ready given, and if it should not be disproved, by e Counsel for the defence, more Witnesses LCITT. seem to be wholly unnecessary ; but in or der to give the fullest illustration to the cause, and to ascertain the truth to the en tire satisfaction of mankind, the Counsel for the Prosecution are naturally desirous of the most complete investigation., that no possible doubt may rest upon the decision, whatever it may ultimately prove. Can it be believed, that the Counsel for the Defence would hazard the reputation of their Client so far as to object to the delay necessary for producing other . Wit nesses, whose testimony may be essential to the developement of truth and the satisfaction of justice ? Yet such is the case, though they leave the world to infer that they are afraid of the testimony of those other Witnesses who had been driven from our shores by the violence of a mob and the libellous assaults of an infamous Public Press.—And, strange to say, the Journalists, who are not tied down like the Counsel to the de fence of their Client, condemn the requisition of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL for more time to bring farther evidence, and consequently she that they are afraid that truth may be injurious to the Royal Defendant. We still forbear to draw in ferences from the evidence already given, and are anxious that all possible lights may be thrown upon a subject of such national import ance. But again supposing only the possibility that IIER MAJESTY may be guilty of all the al leged offences, we should, as we before observed, consider them as the deplorable consequences of a disease which, wherever it prevails, overbears reason in proportion to the violence of its ascen dancy. If then the disease actually existed, it will fully account for all the enormous violations of de cency imputed to lIERMAJESTY, and it may be in ferred, that the disorder having abated, or perhaps entirely left her, she has recovered her reason; that she now loaths the object of her former lament able attachment, and that the infirmity has swept away with it all remembrance of the shocking excesses to which it had betrayed its pitiable victim. Since we wrote the foregoing article, we find hat the ATTORNEY-GENERAL has this day with- drawn his request for more time to adduce far ther evidence, having stated to the House that it would require a longer time to bring forward the new Witnesses than he had apprehended. Still, however, the arguments against the opposition to his request retain all their force in sheaving that the spirit of party, and not a zeal for truth, prompt ed that 'opposition ; while, on the other hand, it appears obvious that the Counsel for the Pro_ secution rely on the validity of the evidence that the y have hitherto brought forw ard. ,
