The question was repeated and a similar answer given.
Lord Ellenborosigh said, he had two very short questions
in put to the tt storm: the Aral was, when the witting speaks
a the rhiracter of her Royal Highness, mod coiled her
flown° donna," did he apply those words to the moral
ehonseter of he► Royal Highseas as a woman, or to her cha-
racter as his snimeess? The second question is, she. he
applied the terms " Cative donna," or an imprudent wo-
man, to her Royal Highness, slid be speak ad her moral elm-
rscicr as a woman, or to her character as his mistress?
A. I always said she was a " Buono dooms," fur if 1 had
said she was a " Calhea donna," they would have fought me
and knocked me dews.
Mr. Brougham said, that in recalling this witness he
lagged to disclaim the intention of eating guy imputation
on any person who might have thought proper to premise
the witness to procure WIN a reward.
A Noble Lord, whole name we could not learn, cooceiced
that the interpretation of the latter part of the witneas's
last answer was not correct.

The Marchese Spinet.° (the Interpreter) said. that, with
submission to the Noble Lord, the latter part of the answer
was furnished to hiss by the other Interpreter (Mr. Cohen),
who had assisted in the interpreting of the cross-eirsasinatlon
or She witlie...
Mr. Brougliam—lt should have been, "They would have
quarrelled with me," and nut "They would hare ksdtked
me duwu or fought me."
The MarcheeeSpisietto-1 missed these words, sod they
were3irru to me by Mr. Cohen.
lAtllrrhurougb conceived that the avower was not cor-
rectly interpreted.

The Fart ,f Liverpool and Lord De Du•at••ville said •
few words; but it being half-past fuer o'clock, the cries of
" Adjourn, adjourn!" and " Go u•, 6o uu !" became very
loud.

The Earl of Liverpool sturgested, That as a new witness
ais goinz lu be thrir Lordships might think it pro-
per to adjourn now.

The cries of " (io on, go on r bring tbe most p►edomi-

LON DON,
FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1820.

The ploceedings against the QUEEN were re-
tained yesterday soar aa ll g in ilw Flittne of Lords wt
the usual hoof. The first witness called was Vitt-
CaNZO .14autor.o, who was wader of the ship
which conveyed the l'iincess of WALES in her ex-
earsht into Greece and Arden. Before the cxa.
initiation in chief of this witiw-s was commenced, a
difficulty arose respecting the right of the Cout.sel
fur the QUEEN to que.i loin upon his notions
respecting the relig. a obligation of the oath he
had taken, and whether he did nut conceive an-
other form of oath more bionliog on his conscience.
These pointy were referred to the Judges, who dra
*ermined that-the COY tistl for the QUEEN alight
examine the vsitness upon the first, but that if in
his answer he avowed his belief that the oath sheerly
adnithisteftd was bolding upon his conscience. he
**gig net is hr further questioned restricting the
4-marialive force of eny wirer fyrns of sake/atlas.
The Esi I of Wax-Lin drew the utteution sit

the Peers_to the iiiibititiptoresting all cam-
"ltnielltiol4 as Air ,41$ Proible• INPITIPn the
witnesses already exatuisetiwt the bee of the House
and these other petioeintralthie likely to be re-
quired to give their y. The eapedieuey of
mete such orrangeasesit Ives already avowed by the
Lords themsetver by the order previously give's,
that none of the persons not esetnined should be
Inman in the Howse dining the emunioatiors of
soy others of the Illumines. Lord LIVER:.
POOL, however, objected to the proposal, on the
presumption that issaupesable dithcwities were op
posed to it. and 'ventured with a grave coui;•
senstiee to compare the prevent situation of the
Italian witnesses to that of persons attending at
Assizes, where they bed been summoned to give
testimony without pay, without restr4itit, in the
face dr the country, and in the sui.lpt or their
friends; relatives, and acquaintances ! Persons,
said the tiloble Lord, in such circumstances, coming
from the same neighbourhood, would be sure to
resort to the same • , frequent the seine places.
search each other out, amid c 'cote freely and
without reserve. and in the same manner, added
the Noble Lord, will the witnesses act who are to
be examined in the present proceedings. Lord
Unmet:ow. has of late sliewes an extraordimtry
relieity in discovering and adapting precedents, sad
he no doubt discovers • stirking similarity between
the present case and one of ordinary occurrence at
• country Assizes ! Blessings on him ! He it
quite ignorant of the existence of Cotton-garden !
he knows nothing of the fine house, the comfortable
secommodations, and the good cheer that are there
provided, at the expense of poor John Bull, to
feed a set of hungry Italians, brought here
in shoals to give evidence against our QUEEN !
Lord LIVERPOOL is firmly persuaded that if
by chance these worthy Gentlemen. " front the
same neighbourhood" have met at the same
place. it happened very naturally, because,
as he says, at country Assizes in England " pee.
ple from the same neighbourhood resort to the
same inn., and frequent the same lances," and so
by a kind of sympathy all the Italian witnesses have
converged to the same point, that point being Cot-
ton.gsrden, which possibly Lord LIVERPOOL might
believe to be some fine hotel kept for the accom-
modation of strangers ! He might as well, like
DWI Quixote, mistake • hotel for a castle. The
Italian gentry could tell I better. Cotton-gar-
den is as delicious to them as was the wedding of
Centractio to honest Sancho, and we entertain no
doubt that when the moment arrives for their de-
parture, they will turn from it with as much grief
as the honest 'Squire expressed when he was drag-
ged from the scene of feasting by the adventurous
spirit of his master. They are at present under
the direct control of the Ministers or their agents,
and nothing could be easier than to separate them,
as the circumstances of the investigation might re-
quire, until the close of the entire proceeding.
During the suspension of the examination, while
the Judges were absent from the House, the LORD
CHANCELLOR took the opportunity to propose the
Resolution of which he had given notice nn the
preceding day, respecting the prosecution of wit-
nesses giving false testimony at the bar of the
House. The Lords agreed to the motion without
hesitation, by which they bound themselves not to
interpose their privilege (of exclusive trial and Fp.
nit lament for any crime committed within their
own cognizance) to prevent any prooectition for
perjury instituted against any witness for testimony
given in the present proceeding.

The extunination of BsaratoLo, the ►vaster of
the ship, then commenced. He admitted that his
allowance is 1,000 dollars per month, exclusive of
maintenance and all other expenses. The mate
stated on the preceding dad• that his compensation
is eight hundred dollars per month, with like advan-
tages. The difference, we presume, urises from
the difference of rank, ■nd certainly does not seen►
to be oat of proportion. The principal incident of
the day was the re-examination of the witness
Theodore Illeocchi. lie was reproduced ut the re-
quest of Mr. BROUGHAM, in consequence of in-
formation received by the Learned Counsel since
the witness was hist before the House. The evidence
which he gave lest evening is very important. It
will be found at length in our report.

The cook of her Hoyt! HiOnto, was next culled.
Hie examihation did not conclude at five o'clock,

when the House adjourned.

The QUEEN proceeded last morning to the
House of Lords soon after ten o'clock. and was
received on her arrival with military hoornrs and
the usual marks of respect from the Officers in
attendance at the House. The weather bring ex.. •
ceedingly line the carriage was thrown open, and
gave the multitude of people who environed her
carriage and lined the streets along her route •
favourable opportunity of seeing her iSlaiEurtr.
The sentinels every where presented arms as the
QUEEN passed. and the people fullowing the car- •
nage cheered loudly at each demon4ration of re-
spect. Her MAJESTY appeared in good health
and spirits. and occasionally bowed to the people
as she pared. Lady Atilt lIMAILTON seeoalek.
