THE QUEEN.

Mr. BaOUGHAIII rose to take the list opporiss
nity of supplying an omission which he slight to
hare supplied in the discussion of la►t night. It
wan objected in him by the Noble Lord that the
question of the Liturgy hail not occurred till lets in
the conferences. I I was due from him to the Prioress,
whom he had the honour to serve, to state, that as soon
as her Majesty !swot by reading the Grose/tea this
Country at the place where she was residing, that list
name 11011 been erased from the Liturgy, she -
thately forwarded a letter to Ministers to complain of
that omission. The fact had escaped him lasi night,
but he had been re ttt i t Ord of the circumstance by
• note from her Misty this morning. The letter
woo tinted the 15th Mardi, amid was received by
Ministers on the lie was hound is fairness
to acknowledge, that. Ho mention had been made
of the circumstance from ibe tense of the coats
mencenariit ofthr negotiations down to that 'wind.

Lord CASTLEREAUIf admitted that he had seen e
note which had licto received by a Noble Friend of
lit., in which tlarre was a c plaint of the omission
of the mime in the Liturgy Ile. had never hail
any doubt but that the Queen felt the otiti,tion rt
her own mind as a subject of complaint. Ms
argument, in opposition to the Honourable and
Learned Gentleman, had been. that the que.tion of
the Liturgy was not among (lie origiusl propositions
of the itegociatioo. It rather teemed to have been
an •Iler-thought of the Queen's advisers, and had
been subsequently rather required a• • condition
than offered as u subject for negociation. White he
ass oat his legs he would suggest, that perhaps it
might be roper for the House to sit to-morrow. in
order to receive the Queen's reply to the Message of
the House. He did not propose that there should
be soy dircustion. but lie thought it imolai be Nil.
mottageou• fur the House to be is possrssioa of the
Answer. in order to repine their minds for any
diseusision which, arm's% out of it, might take

Mr. illonaimat thought that nothing could be
more proper that, the proposition of the Noble
Lord. especially cc the reply was not to be follow.
ed by it echoic discuss . A communisation
might have been made by this time, but that the
debate 'lasted till too late in the rooming. His own
indisposition bad likewise contributed to the delay,
insoinueli that he hail not been abte; No communi-
cation had hem mode to her Majesty till three
o'clock this day.
Mr. DENMAN said. that when be spoke last
Hight. be wee not aware that any such comaturnica.
lion had been made by the Queen to Ministers, as
