LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNK 3.

Tin news which we pnbl;sh th's evening, of the
birth of a wooed son to the Prince of Wm.'s,
will be read with interest by all classes
of the community. The affectionate wel-
come which the Eogl'•h people accorded
to the young Danish Prise- -, who Mae more than
two years ago csme among us bencefo tt to mr'ce
England her home and the centre of her strongest
attachments, must have cony'sced her that the old
sent;ment of loyalty is fs. from bete extinct
even in this country of Pa-liament?-i goveta-
Emit. There is, in fact, no parry in the state
which regards any branch of the Royal Fam"y
of England with other than feeFsgs of
affection and respect. The days have
gone by when a royal party and a ptinoe's party
marshalled their forces in the electioneer
lag campaigns throughout the country ; and
squibs at the expense of royal per-
sonages, once so common, must be sought
for now in the portfolios of curious col-
lectors. The causes of Ws change are
too obvious to require mention ; but
first and foremost must be naked the domestic
qualities which have so happily distinguished
the reign of our present Quash. The old court
scandals—the unseemly broils of kings and their
sone, the profligacy of pr'-ices and their open
quarrels with their wives, which have done so
much to create party feeling and bitterness, are
happily matters of history. People have learned to
regard the famoy of Queen Vieroara se • model of
harmony and good feeFsg ; and it has become
almost a commonplace to remark upon the good
effect of Ws high example upon the manners of
the time.

The Princess of WILEs has always been popular
since her arrival among us, and the more active
part which, in common with the Parses, she has
lately had to take in the ceremonials of royalty,
has served to strengthen this attachment to-
wards her. Our insular lack of sympathy
with foreigners has never shown the slightest
sign in her case ; and the birth of her
second son must make any such manifesta-
tion still more, unlikely. Stronger, ' I fact, than
any letters of naturalisation for making the Prin-
cess of WlLits one of us, must always be the fact
that her home is Eneali, and her children English
bore.

THE House of Commons, in vindication of it.
dignity, has authorised the committal to Newgate
of Mr. Grooort Mortals Mrrcaxxx, having first
resolved that that person had; been guilty of •
breach of privilege by forging signatures to par-
liamentary petitions. In thus assuming Mr.
Mircmax's guilt, the House has adopted the
conclusions of one of its committees; and it
is not easy to see how it could have done
otherwise, the evidence being of a kind that
involved inquiries too special and minute to be
undertaken by a numerous assembly. It follows
that Mr. Mrrarnr, has been found guilty and
sentenced to imprisonment without • lawful trial'
by a jury of his countrymen. We are not going
to assert that this mode of proceeding is necemaj
ray and uni /meetly indefensible. The House of
Commons has some of the attributes of sove-
reignty ; its prerogatives are of vast importance to
the country, and some of our greatest
statesmen—men who were prouder of repre-
senting a borough in Parliament than of the
peerages and garters which they gave away to their
" betters " in rank and fortune—have main-
tained that the House cannot safely commit the
defence of its privileges even to the most august and
independent of tribunals. Still the power is one
which Englishmen may be excused for disliking
to see exerc'sed without manifest occsaion. It is
always unpleasant to see a person sitting as judge
in his own cause, and we cannot but agree with
the member for Finsbury that in this cam • trial
at the Old Bailey would have proved more maiden-
tory than a trial in • committee-room of the
House of Commis. The proceedings of the Com-
mittee were not surrounded by the safeguards
that attend those of court& of justice—which is
unsatisfactory from the point of view of individual
right. Nor is the House able to inflict • punish-
ment adequate to the crime of forgery—which
is unsatisfactory from the point of view of public
justice.

The seven members who voted last night against
the committal (igen, Morrie Mitchell to Neepte on the
warrant of the fhosaker, were Mr. G. W. Bentleok, 84 R.
