Sir IL FERGUSON expremed his most decided
objection to that part of the Report which recom.

his Royal Highness. He would take that oppor-
tunity of asking the Noble Martini., whether, as a
day had been fixed for the coronation, her Majesty
was to be crowned or not ?
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY PRO, it must be
within the recollection of the House that he had be-
fore most clearly stated, that, in his opinion, the cu-
commence of her Majesty's coronation was a matter
entirely for the decision of the King in Council.
lie hail no difficulty in adding, without reserve, that
his Majesty's Miniaters being of opinion that her
.Majesty had no legal right to she honour now claim.
rd for her, did not feel themselves culled upon to
advise that her Majesty should participate in the
ceremony. Ile hid heard, however, that her Ma-
jesty had lately forwarded some memorial on the
subject to the highest quarter, which bud been re-
ferred to the Privy Council, and there was no rea-
son to doubt that it would be decided upon in
strict accordance with the laws
Sir R. FERGUSON wished to be informed at what
period the memorial of her Majesty to which the
Noble Marquis alluded had been present d.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said, to the best
of his information he believed the memorial had
been receivtal within the last three or four days.
Sir R. FERGUsON was desirous of learning whe-
ther her Majesty's claim, so memoratized, had been
submitted to the Law Officers of the Crown, and,
if so, what was their opinion
. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said it was im-
possible to conceive that Ike lion. Member should
suppose that he stood there as a Member of Par-
liarnet to answer such questions. The case was
before the Privy Council, and that circumstance
was sufficient of itself to prevent him, if otherwise
at liberty, from replying more fully than lie had
done already.
• Mr. DENM AN said, the Noble Lord certainly sat
there as a Member of Parliament, but in another
place lie sat as a Privy Couirsellor, and would have
toilet as a Judge on this case. He thought the
Noble Marquis was baund in fairness to give some-
thing like information in answer to these questions.
It was rather late to consult the Law Officers of the
Crown now, when from the Noble Lord's answer
it was evident that the opinion of his Majesty's
Ministers was already wade up. The Petition
of her Majesty was delivered OD Monday
las', and from the delay which had occurred
in getting up an answer, the inference, in his judg-
ment, clearly was, that some doubts were enter-
tained by the Privy Council as to disallowing her
cluim. That of itself did to him seem enough to
establish a claim on the plot of her Majesty to
he heard before the Council by those persons to
whom it might be her pleasure to epprpot to argue
. her claims. . It seemed strange that a memorial
from her Majesty should have been antlered to re-
main from Monday to Saturday withoot an answer,
unless some doubt were esitertained ; and he could
hot but consider her Majesty as hiving just reason
to complain that she had so long heen•kept in sus-
pense as to the decision OM her application.
The Alerquis of LONDONDERRY said, he was sur-

M►. ScARLETT rose to defend his Learned
Friend from► the charge of want of candour. It
was not fur him to speculate ou the probable
causes of the delay which had taken place; the
law's delay was proverbial. His Learned Friend,
although her Majesty's legal adviser. was not her
Majesty's Minister. It was his duly to act on the
instructions he received from his Royal Mistress.
and to give her his opinion and advice on those
ponds on which he was consulted. He (Mr. Scar•
lett) should much wish to know whether her Majesty
claimed to lie heard by Counsel on the subject of her
claim, which he certainly considered as achnittnig of
strong argument in her favour. There was but one
instance in the history of the country of a Queeu
Consort not having beeu crowned. It was an error
to suppose that the case of the Queen of
Henry VII. decided the point. She was crowned,
,not at the same time with her husband, at was true,
because lie was crowned before their marriage, and
it was well known that he was averse to operating
to derive his right to the crown frosts his nieilitated
union with her. The only instance of a Queen not
!porno, been crowned was that of the wife of
Charles 1. • But she was a Catholic, and the pecu-
liar circniaistances of the times. the Catlvilics brig
then its very bad odium, would render it a matter
of ezpedieucy not unnecessarily to obtrude her on
the public notice.
The Marquis of LONDoNDERNY hoped that from
any thing lie had said lie should not be inferred as
giving ass opinion that the Queen sliver could or
would be clowned, or that her Counsel would not
be heard ; he would hszird no optiliou as to the
decision of the Panay Council, hut was satisfied in
his own mind that the deci•iou rested at the dis-
cretion of the l'tivy Council.
Mr. BERNAL adverted to the question imme-
diately before the House, and expressed the strong-
est objection to granting the arrears to his Royal
Highness. Ile remembered that Ills Hon. Baronet.
the Member for Carlisle (AirJ. Graham), had stated
on a former occasion, that his Royal Highness its
declining the grant of 6,0001. wear, had acted,
not• from the dictates of his own breast, but by
the persuasioa of those who had advised Wm. If
that were the fact, he thought those who had so ad-
vised him, when they again recommestded his vont-
ing forward to ask for the seine grant and for the
arrears, but little consultel either the dignity or
the welfare of the Royal Family. Those were
their mod sincere and best friends, who wished to
see them seated on the best throne, the affections of
the English people. There were sources open to
the Royal bounty from which the means of liqui-
dating any debts or encumbrances which his Royal
Highness might have lammed could well Note been
supplied, without subjecting him to the degradation
of calling noon Parliament to make good the evil
consequences of his refusal to accept of its hauler
grant.
Mr. MARTIN (or Galway) considered the House
bound by the oiler it bad once made to his Royal
Ilighsters ; but even if it had slot made that offer,
lie thought it would be but right to vote this grant
in consideration of the dignity of the Royal
a Family.

Mr. MINNA?! said, the explanation of the Noble
Lord would go to dispeope with a message fiom the
Crown in any case. Perhaps the Howe woukeen x.

into some explanation as to what had occurred • e

preparations be made for clowning her. No

',if the rank of Queen of Englund could not com-

ow the subject, and being yet without en answer,
that morning her Majesty forwarded a Memorial
to the Poivy Council, desiring to be beard by
Counsel on the subject of her claims. The &Lillis ct
of his complaint was, that his Majesty's Miuniters
should not have been prepared to give an imine-
diate answer as to the legal right of her Mijesty to
be crowned ; for it must be supposed-diet they
had taken the pracaution of informing themeNses
well opun it before the Noble Marquis had, two
months ago, as he stated, dented the existence of
such a right.
The Marquis of LoNDONDERRir deprecated this
irregular discussion of a question which was 1/C.1.4
