FREEDOM OF THE. RESS, yet
,they
.have
menced proceedings against The Morning Post
and The Courier, for exercising ' that freedom,
though the public. prints on' their side have
pushed that freedom to the, most daring
excesses of licentiousness and
But 'this is not all, they have commenced proceed-
ings also against a Clergyman of LiVerpool for
presuming to express his sentiments respecting the
QUEEN, tho Ugh the subject of the restoration of
her name into the Liturgy is one which ought pe-
culiarly -to attract the attention of the Ministers
of our Holy Faith. Not, however, that we ap-
prove of the introduction of political topics in the
Pulpit, except in cases where principles are dis-
countenanced, Which threaten the safety of the
State and the destruction of the Monarchy,'--But
these pretended friends of the freedom of the
Press are said to ' have employed themselves
in an examination of the Rev. Mr. PHILPOTT'S
admirable pamphlet: on Lord GREY'S speech at
the Durham County Meeting, in order to
discover, if possible, any thing which might
draw on the Author the vengeance of the Law.
Government we all know has beenlibelled in the
grossest' manner by the Opposition Journals
in general, and Ministers have been, charged
with a foul conspiracy against the honour and
the. life of THE QUEEN, particularly in cue Public
Print,. whose very title is
,synonymous with
every thing that is atrocious and infamous; vet
Ministers have not resorted to the Law for
revenge, retribution, or -protection.. - What then
must be the opinion of all wise and honest men,
on the conduct of those who profess to be zealous
for the Liberty of the Press, and deny their op-
ponents the enjoyment of. it under the terrors of
the Law ? . Their conduct is cowardly as well as
inconsistent, for they make the QUEEN' responsi-
ble in her Answers to Addresses, as well as in
her Letter to the King, the drift of which
it is not to be supposed that her MAJESTY
could be fully aware, but was, we hope, the un-
conscious instrument of factious discontent and
ambition. For ourselves we are unconcerned
in the question, as we conducted ourselves with
temperate caution during the whole of the late
lamentable proceedings, leaving the evidence on
the investigation, and the declarations of the
Judges, to speak for themselves to the plain un
derstandings of mankind.

FOREIGN TRADE.-----The Select Committee on
this subject commenced their sittings yesterday.
Sir RoacnT SEPPINGS was, we understand, the
• first witness examined. The -second was Mr.
COPELAND, the builder, whose examivatiou, it is
said,' would be resumed this morning. - The Com-
mittee is not expeCted -.to sit on Wednesday or
Saturday next, and there -is some reason to be-
lieve that the evidence will be printed daily, in
order to avoid the, delay which would arise, if
it was deferred until the whole of the examina-
tions were gone through. The,CoUntry at large
are looking with great anxiety to the result of ,
the labours of this Committee ; and although
the sentiments of many of its members are known,
from their public declarations and writings, to
be adverse to the good policy of the Country,
we do hope that they will divest themselves of
all previous impressions, and impartially report
on the evidence of the conflicting parties who
come before them.

geese possessions; and, as soon as these piteticulars
were known in the Brazilian capital, the people
flocked in crowds to the house of M. ARCO, and
