—Now he (Mr. S.) contended, that any person who had
been present during Lieut. Hownam's examination, and
coupled the evidence of that witness with what lie had
heard and read of the other parts of the trial, as as as COM-
',elect to form a judgment as if he hail been present
during the whole trial. He concluded by moving, that
the sum of 30,0 el. be stiltstitnted for 501001.
Mr.BROUG HA SI sairl,he most appeal to the lion. mem-
ber whether it was manly, or decent, or consistent with the
forms of the house, that he. and oilier hon. members,
should go on, night after eight, canvassing detached por-
tions of the evidence in the Queen's cue, all which evi-
denre had been produced before the other house of
parliament ? Either the Queen was guilty, or she was not
guilty ; either she was acquitted, or she was not acquitted.
If she was acquitted, members of that house had tin tight
to cast imputations upon her; if she was not acquitted, in
God's name let gentlemen come forward, let them boldly,
nraufnlly, fairly come lot ward and accuse her. (Hear,
hear, hear.) Her Majesty asked fur justice, and for no
more than justice ; and if gentlemen thought she had not
bean sufficiently tried, and that the country bad not had
enough of prosecution, let them come boldly forward, and
prosecute her again. (Hear.)
Sir T. LETHBRIDGE said, he could pat his band on
his heart, and declare, as a representative of the British
people, that from the evidence which had been adduced
an another place, he believed her Majesty to be piny of
the charges which had been [nought against her. Ile hail
been told that a well-known person, the courier Bergand,
had been living in the metropolis of France, in a style of
magnificence' which was much Letter suited to the dignity
of one of our British noblemen, than to a person of that
ignoble description. He wished to know whence the mo.
slay came to support this magnificence/ Did it come
from the parliament of Great Britain? Were they to sit
there, and vote away the money of the people for such
purposes as these?—(Cheers from behind the ministerial
benches.)
A long debate took place on the subject, after which,
the question being called for, time gallery was cleared for
a division, and therefore strangers were excluded, but no
division took place,and the resolution for granting 50,0001.

of the proceeding was to cast another stigma Ork the unfor-

was the disorder that many bale young men declared that they
would never attend a public meeting again. To the petition
being brought up he bad no objection—but it was carried
in rather an odd way.
Mr. ASTELL justified the support which he had given to
the petition. No interruption would have taken place had
not the hon. Baronet and his friends attended; nod yet they,
of all persons, set themselves up as the moderate sail quiet
people. (Cheers.]
Lord MI urom was glad be had heard the hon. Baronet's
opinion of public meetings, as well as of the lo) al declarit-
tmo. It was thought his Majesty ought to be " cheered
up," and the tins, of " cheerin up" his Majesty was to
support Mioisters.—`Hear, hear.]—That was no advantage
to the King—for he thought it might be demonstrably shown
that the minister's measures were every 'king but beneficial
to the Monarcb.—E Dear, hear.)
Mr. Alderman WOOD &elated, that the hon. Baronet
was the cause of the noise. As to the petition, the hon.
Baronet admitted that it had been fairly carried, and yet he
said that the majority of the people agreed with the ma-
jority of that House. How were such contradictions to be
reconciled? The hon. gent. who just spoke, said be could
not get on 11w hustings: was he one of the 300 who endea-
voured to force the doors and gain possession of the ball? In
fact the mine was produced Is) the hon. Baronet's appear.
ance, fur it was well known a believer he made his appear.
once at public meetings there was always considerable noise
created by the mixed clamour of his opponeut's and friends.
After some further remarks from Mr. Baring, Mr. T. Wil-
son. &e. the petition was brought up, read, and ordered Ito
be printed.
Mr. W. SMITH afterwards moved for sundry papers
illustrative of the mode in which certain foreign powers
carry on the blase trade; Lord J. Russell presented a petition
complaining of the proceedings at the Kilmaiuhain meeting
(Dublin); and the remaining business having been disposed
of, the House went into a committee of supply to consider of
the navy estimates, but were counted out by Mr. Bennett,
there being only 25 members present. Adjourned until
Monday.

All the excluded evidence in the case of the
Queen, with the testimony of those witnesses who
arrived too late to be examined in her Majesty's
defence, will speedily be laid kifore the public.—
Additional proofs of her Itlajesty's innocence, and
of the infamous nature of the proceedings against
her, will thus be furnished. A highly intelligent
person who has seen the documents states that such
a mass of proof in favour of an accused person was
never before exhibited. _ _

r. Mash, one of his Majesty's Gentlemen Ushers,
was in attendaum in the House of Commons during
the whole of the debate on Lord A. Hamilton's
motion on Friday evening. After the division,
Lord Castlereagh sent a note by him to the King,
communicating the result.
A singular circumstance occurred at the hue levee.
A gentleman of respectable appearance being pre-
sented to the King, knelt down and commenced a
speech to his Majesty, complaining of the manner
in which some petition he had presented had been
received. His Majesty waved his hand fin. the gen-
tleman to pass on, but he contincd kneeling and
speaking. On this Lord Lake, assisted by others,
seized the gentleman by the shoulders, and removed
him from the royal presence by force.
