LONDON:
WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1839.

In the House of Lords last night, after the pre-
sentation of a few petitions, Lord WHARNCLIFFE
Failed their Lordships' attention to a Tory false-
hood, which is a violation of their Lordships' pri-
vileges._ane It is elsewhere noticed. This circum-
stance
Limo' e grtew out of the proceedings of Lord RoDEN's
Repor
of which it was said it was hoped a

htbbe speedily presented, and in which it
ante of Peers is
aterous.
Duke of RICHMOND the attend-
Viscount EnLn
an explanation to th°euißNE then proceeded to give
Ministerial commotum r 'Lordships relative to the
, simil th wch
was given on the night before into at
the Househi of
Commons. The Noble Lord apologised for
not having done so the nient before, and
said he thought it should first be done by those
who were parties to the negotiations. His Lord.
ship's explanation threw no new light on the subject,
;°t it gave us satisfaction to learn from the Noble
Viscount that he had only resigned the Government
from thinking he had lost the support of those whO
placed him in it, and that he resumed his office
solely because he would not forsake her MAJESTY
when placed in a situation of difficulty, having de
mantis made on her which, to comply with, would
r
~ender her whole domestic life subject to continual
'"ge, unhappiness, and distress. The Noble
Lord's explanation was received by the Peers with
'any marks of satisfaction.
The Duke of WELLINGTON followed the Noble
Viseount and his speech was not remarkable for
the
Clearness or terseness which usually belong to
"I'e Duke's speeches. He admitted that he thought
on Tuesday he might be sent for by the QUEEN,
that he had considered of what materials to form an
`l'dministration, and what should be done with the
Itli,°llsehold. His Grace was quite clear that the
Minister should have all the usual pottier over it,
and,i in fact, all the usual power was given to Sir
°IERT PEEL. His demand to remove the
rdies is unsupported by one single prece-
'tit, and the Duke did not quote any. We
ecan hardly divine from his speech the exact
"(tent to which he thinks the control over her
(11AJESTY'S Household ought to go ; but if we
1 ° not misinterpret his opinion, his Grace wished
to establish a thorough controul over the Palace
and Government as he would a regiment. In his
system the Queen apparently is to be a sort of
extra Aid-du-Camp of tender years and of good fa-
mily, who wears epaulets and is admitted to
the Commander-in-Chief's table, but is not ex-
-Ipeeted to do any duty. The Duke would so pro-
vide for her MAJESTY that she should not even
have
„i the trouble of thinking what companions
her MAJESTY
like. His iron yoke has, happily
MAJESTY and the people, been broken
Before it was rivetted. The Noble Duke avowed
himself a great enemy to female influence, and, of
course, to the influence of her MAJESTY herself.
A misapprehension is said to have existed on her
MAJESTY'S part as to the extent to which Sir R.
REEL proposed to carry his power ; but after *the
Duke of 'WELLINGTON 'S explanation, we are con-
vinced that her MAJESTY'S dread was justified.
The Commons, as was agreed on, only transacted
Private business. The Manchester and Birming-
ham Railway Extension Bill was read a second
time after a division. The House was counted out.

The commencement of business in the House of
Lords last night, previous to Lord MELBOURNE
entering into his explanation, was very appropriate,
as establishing the honour of the Whigs, and the
false charges made by the Tories. Lord WHARN-
CLIFFE lirought under the notice of the House a
, "'reach of privilege, but he did not, as probably_ he
9ught to have done, move to have the writer, who
in one sentence violated the privileges of the Lords
and the obligations of morality, brought to the bar
to answer for his conduct. Lord WIIARNCLIFFE
F°l-itelited himself with exposing an act of baseness
li: the Totv Journals. He found, said the Noble
, 4141, in the Standard, the usual repository for
.Etrtnious f,rlsehoods, a quotation from the Man
rit'e'ling Mail, another Paper which is n0t0,,"8
,,"8 for the exaggerated, which are . false.

any attemptPlalned to keep back any document. Ile ex-
, also, that the Members of the Ad-

so convinced of the impropriety of the charge
