TO THE EDITOR OP THE BRITISH PRESS.

Rtit —I should feel obliged by the insertion in your Paper
of the followiiig observatious on. the proceedings against the
Queen
The public are now not only io possession of the charges
against her Majesty, bast also the evidence by which those
charges have been supported. The greatest enemy of the
Queen, I think, could never have anticipated that her ac-
cusers would have brought *itch against her without being
able at least to have backed the Mailman, sod Denionts by
some whoever' of respectability; bet what has bees the
case? This clearly explains the ground upon which • list
of witnesses was refined the Queen ! These cast-off servants
have stated that the Queen was net visited only by preemie
of the lower or middling classes of society; surely, thee,
some of the Nobility or Gentry might have been produced to
corroborate this statement; bat no each thing! Look at
the witnesses, and point out one beyead the retch of bribery?
The proceedings from the first have been viewed • am the
result of a conspiracy ; before a witness was examined, ur
even the charges made known, the Ham to of Comtism," de.
elated the investigation would lITOVO ilcroplory from the
beat interests of the Crown, moil refused to proceed; and the
nation at large have expressed their sentiments must ea-
equivocally in the monstrous Addressee they have presented;
but yet let it be remembered, 'hit 250 individual Lords,
who are not • representative body, have, contrary to the
lease of the country, and also to that branch of the legis-
lature whose duty it is to impeach, proceeded in this busi-
er's ! I jest pause to ask, is this constitutional? If nut,
does not this come nearer to Radicalism than any thing this
country ever exhibited ? But with the ex parte evideeice of
the Attorney.Getieral before us, and not a single wholes, on
the Qiieen's part being called, how much does this state-
ment alumeennfirm the idea of a plot against her Majesty ?
Let um briefly notice the circumstances as derived from this
sorree:—We and that Majocchi confessed he was supported
for a length of time, doing nothing, by the English Ambas-
sador, or his Agent., at Vienna ;—iliat Gaetano Petszz
and Vincenzo Bargiolo, mate and master of the polacre,
received large salaries fur coming here to an amount that
can convey but one idea • and that Barbara Creme received
as much for what she at Hanover and Frankfurt a. she
obtained fur five years' wages when in service. At the
Times siewspaper of the 30th of August observed, we "boold
hear nothing more from the witnesses about pay, so it bath
happened;—does tint this prove these witnesses are well
taught ? Can it he pretended fur a moment, that these wit-
nesses could not be gut to England without paying them
such ennernoua sums, when, as they have all declared, the
Agents of their respective Governments threatened to send
them by force? They were, therefore, not paid fur loam of
time, or loss of any sort, but fur what they were coming
here to say; and if some are paid so much, the conclusion is
natural, that all have their price; neither is it probable, if
. the contrary is the case, that those who acknowkdge they
*MN paid, should accidentally all be examined first, and the
Where taken by themselves; this mast tell every impartial
moons that tlizir examinations are according to rule.
The Next point worthy of notice is, that the same Halbert"
Oasis, though she had been deposing to one of the strongest
pinata fur evidence, says to a question--." Have you had any
co glum with any person respecting your observation
relative to her Royal Highness and Bermian, particularly,
&e. &c.?—" I never have made any observation to any body."
Guiseppe Bianchi also deelares, " I have never 'woken upon
this business to any body." Paulo ReCairittfti, the mason,
who watched the Princess and Berg.nsi whilst looking et
the figures, was asked, " Did you, before that time (whets
be was examined at Milan) speak to any body of the circuit,-
masers you have sow stated ; I caw swear that."
Ilieronyiniss St isritt wa. asked wbetlwe tie mentioned what

He auswered, "No; I mentioned nothing; I dill ant
say any thing about it." Paolo Oggiune, after saying he was
applied to by the puttee at Milan In give itiformatioti on this
subject, was naked, " Hail you ever sweetie's...l any wf the
eitemasnances that you slated les-day before that time?"
" I had NM." Louisa Demos' being asked, " Did you not
