'LONDON,
TUESDAY. Strrsmsta 5. iseo.

The failore of DRISONT to substantiate the
charges against the Queer lies rendered it neces-
sary for the ATTORNEY-GENERAL to protract the
close beyond what is ',resumed to bare been his
original intention. The evidence against her M A.
Jewry was ootried by the formidable THEODORR
Nlalocciti, for the purpose evidently of producing
a strong impression upon the minds of their Lord•
ships at the commencement of the inquiry, while
yet the ATTORNEY-GENERAL'S opening speech was
fresh in their memories; but the cunning of this
arrangement was neutralised by the superior *kill
of the opposite party, the unlucky treachery of the
witness's memory upon circumstances wherein he
should be presumed to be well informed, and cer-
tain awkward discoveries whirh moot but diminish
the confidence that might otherwise be placed in
his testimony. A crowd of witnesses were then
brought forward in rapid succession.- whoa,: evi-
deuce, instead cf corroborating that of Ma-
JaCCltt, ass either su inconsiderable as to pegs
away without leavMg tiny distinct impression upon
the memory, or contributed to weaken the (-Met
of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL'S statement. TO coin-,i
peissett for MAJOCCIit'S failure, and Ilse unex-
pected deticiisocies of the other witnev-es. it was
resolved at length, and we behrve as a matter of
absolute necetiity, to produce Louts.% DumoNT,
in the aseuranoe that her testimony must decade the
charge against the Qvcsit. This was 10 lie the
mortal blow, and with this the Counsel for the
Bill were to have closed their ease; hitt the unex-
pected light that was thrown upon her charnel«,
by the letters whiCh we published yesterday,
shewed the miserable iaseetarity of the basis on
which they had ratted their hope.; they were

There were seven witotomes exatnined yesterday,
none of whom underwent any cross-examination
beyond the ascertaining. of certain minute polio!,
ari•ing obviously out of the wiittesses direct testi-
mony. Yet ever) unprepared and surprised as the
Counsel for the Qv sem evidently were from net
having an opportunity of kilo...jog the ',woes awl
places of abode of the witorsires, sufficient was
extracted from some of them to invalidate their tes-
ur at least to weaken the wow.; impression
which their direct examination might have pro-
duced. We know nothing as yet of the characters
of these prtsoas, their allegations use but reisetitiolis
of the stale storits which have fur some time floated
wide upon the public, and until the Coistivel fur
the QUERN have a fair olipottu.pty of rebutihig
them, Cite ars-a-lions of these grooms. stalls-men,
and labourers, ought not to fie considered ws lend-
ing any additional weight to die rumours previously
circulated. This feeling we most the sooner en-
t.!retist from the knowledge afdiodod.... tut by the cases
of MAJOtCIII and DESIONT, alias the Countess of
COLOMRIERE, that in the only two cases wherein
her MAJESTY'S Contiael were prepared with some
knowledge of the witnesses charactees and habits,
they elf,etually overthrew the pretesting's. of these
witnesses to c•edsbdity. If tin, be the case wit It
respect to the two principal witnesses, why may we
not fairly entertain the poevinutoion, that if the
game opportunity had been afforded to the Counsel
fur the QUEEN to *at the pretensions of sonic of the
others, they would be found no less itiadmisibfe
The fact is, however, that with the exception of
fila.loccut and [)snorer, none of the witnesses
depose to any ocentrenees from which a presump-
tion of actual ciiinin.lity on the part of her
MAJESTY can be inferred. The circumstioices
they relate, if worthy of belief, stew a very
improper and intleheive familiarity subsisting
between the PRINCESS and BEasams, for which,
if finally suhstslitisted, no excuse eau be of-
fered. But at the same time we must guard
against coufusing the charges made against the ll-
letstrious Defendant, and take care not to riot an
offence, however censurable it may be, with a pu-
nishuteht far higher than it merits, and which is de-
nounced wily against a crime of a more enormous
character. We must never forget that the present
proceeding is in the nature of a criminal prosecu-
tion, and consequently that no charge is to
be entertain' d but such as is capable of
being legally subvtantiated by sufficient evidence,
that every charge is to be taken strictly against
I the prosecutors, and that should soy doubt arise
the defendant ought to he allowed the benefit
of it, 'ti, crime imputed is adelltory with a
certain individual, and utthough acts of familiarity,
if joined wits other circumstances of a less equivo-
cal nature, may strengthen the presumption of ac-
tual guilt, yet from them alone no presumption of
critnitodity can justly or legally be itaited. We
must not, thereto'.', suffer our minds to be dis-
tracted from the 1.0310 charge by the introduction
of these minor incidents, and should we find a de-
fect a proof upon the subject of the priueipal
(dilute, we must not suffer the incidental arts of
familiarity to be dragged in to bolster up the in.
dictment, but discharge them altogether from our
minds as being extraneou to the great tiuestion of
actual criminality.

The latest accounts from Palermo are of the 6th of Au-
gust. The city was still agitated; citizens, to the numbrr
of 30,000 have armed themselves with muskets taken from
the miens's, and breathes determiuril spirit of independence.
The Deputation sent to Naples would nut be received unless
they brought au assurance that Palermo was ready to re-
cognize the autlunity of the KING. Their powers did out
extend to Ibis, and the Deputies returned. The Neapulitau
troops defeated by tl.e people of Palermo amounted, it is
said, to 3,000 men, including 500 cavalry. The facility of
their defeat has inspired the Sicilians with confidence in

M 4 RY-LE-Bllffit ADDRESS.

Yesterday being isopoisterl by her Mojetrio

and that of the Iltarrted Lathes of Mary-le-bone, at
no
early timer itt the mamma the procession hegan
to imorslial in. Cavendish-square tit nine o'clock
there were fifty °pro barrow-hes, drawn by f""
horses, in the squire. 'Phe Wil"

Creased, sod the owners took possession of them ;
more than a third of then, were filled with eleipsui

heilbeli, and five wrouch,•• or tltt CoLowiltre.
drawn by four grey hones earls. were drawn sip.
At eleven o'clock the whole neighbourhood of
Ca-
eendr•h-square was tilled with people. The win-
dows of the houses were all thrown open, and occu-
pied by Ladies, bolding white farms- s in their
hands. At this hour P. Moore, Esq. M.P. snit Mr.
Hume. arrived in their carriages opposite the Com-
muter.-room, and were received with loud acclama-
tions of "Moore fur ever ! —llvme for ever Tile
crowd. however, 'las so great that ttwy ouuld not
alight. At 20 minutes after 1 I o'clock Sir G. Noel
amved in his carriage, suit was loudly greeted by
the p,or.le. The procession then morel .oi in the
Illit11.1•1* we stated yestyrdse, with the exceptimi of
Mr. Whitbread and Lord Wro. Ftazgeralti out hss..
iog then routed. The Members of Parliament were
dressed in Court dresses, and the Gentlemen of
the Committee wore cocked huts, sod carried white
wands. The procession moved hut slowly, as the
concourse of those on foot was s, great, that
it was with difficulty the carrsiges could pram.
From every smooth, as the cavalcade moved, snood
st. uttered God bless Queen Caroline, may she
be able to overcome her euendes !" This wish was
out o.ly expressed by those who stood its tie streets
for the purpose of seeirtg the procession. hut it
echoed front every carriage, and was re-echoed from
the windows of every house. We have s.-ers many
processions, but never woe where the effect was go
great as this ; 156 open carriages, drawn by four
hor,es, and occupied one half ay Ladies, dressed
most elegantly. but as Eughsliwomen ought,
modestly, expesite:: themselves to the heat of the
sun and the isicouvenience of the dust, for tl,e pur-
pose of expressing their opinion of the pinto). of
the cundoct of tile head of their society—their
Queen. When tlw procession arrived in Pit:coda!),
there was nothing to be seen but a mass of people,
it could hardly be supposed that an opening could
be made for the cavalcade to pass through. The
windows of the houses ishur had to boast of bting
tilled by elegant females, who vied oith each other
to expressing their approbation of the conduct of
the bearers of the Addresses. Hyde Path Corner
had also its full share of visitor., who joined their
loud sod hearty cheese; Knightsbridge' was also
crowded.

Mr. Whitbread's carriage joisted the procession
at Kensington Gore : it cannoned Lind Wm. Fitz-
gerald, Mr. Whitbread, and three of his sister,.
The cavalcade continued moving &piety on,
being prevented from the 'crowds of people from
udvaisci fig at a quicker pace. Kensington and Ham-
mersmith resented a scrim 'quid to that we have
alrendy described ; at the latter pima the church-
yard was completely filled with decent dressed per-
sons; there could not he less than 1,000 persona in
it. The colours were hoisted on the church stood-
ard, and the bells rung u merry tune. The plaices li
-
aims arrived at the gate of Brandenlorgla Mane
at a quarter past one o'clock, and cot entering the
grounds belonging to the house, they were filled
with compauy, stud had a moat picturesque appear-
ance ; not a tree that had a branch that would sup-
port a man or boy. that was sort occupied; they
were even graced by some of the softer sex. At
the door of Brondenburgh House; there was tome
delay iii the vetting down from the carriages, as
her Majesty had just received sit Adobes* from
the inhabitants of Camberwell. and the persous
preseuting it hod not retired. The persons
forming the procession ...ere not all set down till
half--past three o'etock. The room iss which her
Majestr generally receitC.4 the Aildr.roes, and which
is the full length of Biasaletiburgh House, sins trot
sufficiently Large to hold the adatrlPSCfli ore snug Oe•
CILS.OII. and her Majesty'. drawisig.rorius was thrown
open for the purpose of receiving the gentlemen.
Her Majelty was steeding at the upper cud of the
room as the addresiters entered, attended by Lady
Auu Hamilton Bud Mr. Alderman Wood. Het
Majesty was dressed in a bloc satin dress, a diadem
of pearls in her hair, and a white lace veil; sie
looked extremely well, anti curtsied•most gracious-
ly its the ladles entered the room.
Mrs. Hoydou presented to her Alaiestv the Ad-
' diem of the Married Ladies, which was afterwards
read in a most audible manlier by MI. /lentil-, the
Secretary of the Committee. Her Majesty handed
her answer to Mr. Alderman Wood, and requested
that he should read it. She then ino.t graciously
observed, that she had hooded it to Alderman
Wood to read, es she did not consider hersell suffi-
ciently versed in the English language lo be able to
read it Kt as that it should be intelligible to all
around her, and she did wish they would all hear it.
Alderman Wood accordingly read the answer,
after which the Ladies, consisting of 587, had the
honour of kissing her Majesty's hand, sod us the
huuour was conferred on thesis they retired into the
rhawing-room, and the luliabitant Householders
cattle into the room; Sir Gerard Noel presented
their Petition, end it was read by Mr. firmly. Mr.
Aldermen Wood read her Majesty's answer; after
which the Gentlemen Addressers, to the trumber of
1,100, had the honour of kissing her Majesty's
hood. •
her Majesty conversed with Mts. Darner and the
Maw Whitbread. in the course of which we ob-
served fist she often used the lathilior term of my
deer.
Site afterwards appeared several time, at the
window, and was loudly cheered from those with-
out, which she returned most graciously by blasting
to them. On observing horn the windows that the
court-yard was nut oatticieut to accommodate the
immense multitude who surrounded the bowie, she
desired the ellen to be thrown open for their se.
roaunadation, and regretted that the fruit it con.
boiled was not swore inviting. RV MilicitY also
