The MarqUess of LO,NDONDERRY repeated his
former statement
Mr. DENMAN 'aid his Honourable and Learn-
ed Friend had expressed the ''same doubt on
this - subject as he had himself before expressed.
Iftl< observations , of the Noble Lord on that,
precedNa which lik,;ited was worth.-any
'thing-, it wctuat gb\the'llt of Cabsirig theflit to-
dispense with a Royal Message in every case of
this kind. He now took this opportunity of
saying, in any debates which affected her Majesty,
the part which he took was altogether as a Mem-
ber of Parliament, for in the situation in which
he stood to that illustrious Person, he knew no-
thing could be more liable to her disapprobatitn,
than that her legal advisers should make them-
selves parties to any discussion particularly af-
fecting her Majesty. He would now state dis-
tinctly what was in progress as to the important
subject of-her claims, as this was not a nego-
ciation, and therefore did not require secresy.---
(Hear.)—He understood her Majesty had pre-
sented a memorial to the King in Council on
Monday, not praying to be heard, because she
expressed no doubt on the right, but praying to
be crowned. Lord Hood saw Lord Sidmouth
relative to it, and an answer was promiSed to be
returned on Thursday, but no answer was given
further than what he had stated, and in con-
sequence a memorial was that morning pre-
sented from her Majesty, praying to be heard
by her Counsel before The Privy Council. In this
state of the case he wished to abstain from any
discussion on the subject, but he could not help
saying that it .was not respectful or courteous to
the Queen, to allow her Majesty's application to
remain so long without an answer, and (we-un-
derstood him to say) that two letters which had
been addressed relative to the former applica-
tions were not attended to. lie did not complain
of the Law Officers of the Crown on account of
the delay, but he complained of Ministers not
being able to give an opinion, as he had a right
to assume that they ought to have been prepared
with an answer, after the opinion expressed by
the Noble Lord on the subject two months be-
fore.—(Hear, hear!)
The Marquess of LONDONDERRY found it ne-
cessary again to repeat that that opinion related
to the question as.a matter of discretion; but
when-a grave application was made by a legal
claim, it ought-to undergo.grave and legal deli-
berations.—(Hear, hear!)
The Report was then received, and the Bill
ordered to be read a third time on Monday.
The Lotteries Bill was committed, and the Report ordered
to be received on Monday next,

APPR.OrRIATION . BILL.
The CHANCELLOR of, the EXCHEQUER moved that
the above Bill should be committed.
Colonel DAI,7IES wished to know what the expenses of the
Coronation were likely to be ? . £lOO,OOO had been voted for
that purpose last year, but, looking to the preparations that
were making, that .sum would not cover one-fifth of the ex-
pense. The country ought not to be vut to so enormous a
charge for thiS vain and idle pageant. The coronation robes
were understood to cost 30.0001. and there was 9,0001. for the
hire of an extra crown. All this would not tend to make his
Majesty more a king than he was at present. • .
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that in
addition to the 100,0001. voted last year, a,vote of money, but
not to any considerable extent, would be necessary, to meet
some unforeseen expences.
Sir M. CHOL3IELE It was of opinion that the additional
sum might he raised by voluntary contribution.
Mr. SCARLETT understood that five and six guineas were
demanded for seats. If a portion of the proceeds were handed
over to the Treasury, the expellee of the Coronation might be
defrayed by those who had the benefit of seeing it.
The Bill then went through the Committee.—Report on
Monday. "

METROPOLIS POLICE BILL.
The Report of the Metropolis Police Bill was agreed to, after
a few words from Mr. BERNAL, who suggested the propriety
of enlarging the salaries of Police Officers, and making provi-
sion for such as were superannuated or wounded.—Third reading
on Monday.
The Report of the captured Slaves;Bill was agreed to.—Third
reading on Monday. • •
AUDIT OF ACCOUNTS BILL.
The Report of the Audit of accounts Bill was agreed to, Mr.
MADE Y having previously introduced a clause, providing
that an account of the actual surplus or deficiency of the
revenue, as compared with the expenditure, should be annu-
ally made out.--Third reading on Mo2day.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notice,
that he would, on Monday, move an address to his Majesty for
the usual remuneration for the Officers of both Houses of Par-
liament.—Adjourned.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.-THIS DAY.

This morning W. 11. E. Floyer, Esq. a Justice
of the Peace for Staffordshire, received the sen-
tence of the Court for publishing certain libels in
the Litchfield Mercury on Sir Robert Peel, Bart.
lie was adjudged to be imprisoned in the King's
Bench for three months, to pay a fine of 10001.
to the King, and to find security for his good be-
haviour for five years, himself in the sum of 20001.
and two sureties in the sum of 1000/. each.

COURT.OP KING'S BENCH, JUNE 30.
Mr. COOPER applied fora rule to show cause why Mr. Jones,
the Marshal of the King's Bench prison, should not answer the
matters of an affidavit made by Colonel Millie who stated,
that in December last he was a prisoner in the King's Bench,
and occupied apartments in the coffee-house, at that time kept
by W. Pool, ,or which he paid 21. Bs. a week. The deponent
stated, that many irregularities prevailed in the prison ; .and
amongst others, Peel was in the habit of keeping his coffee-
room open to a very late hour. On one occasion, Deponent de-
sired the waiter to represent to Pool that the noise and carous-
ing, on account of the state of his health, very much disturbed
him. This was at one o'clock onSunday morning. On a sub-
sequent occasion, Pool, instead of abating. the disturbance, used
insolent language to deponent, and desired him to quit the
house. After a third complaint, deponent applied to the Mar-
shal, who instead of redressing the grievance complained of,
advised deponent to take lodgings in another part of the prison,
least the prisoners cie masse, should inflict upon him the sum-
mary vengeance of a pimipiHe.. The affidavit went into com-
plaints of various other irregularities in the prison, many of
which the Court intimated were matters not in the cognizance
of the Court; and the affidavit was therefore withdrawn to be
amended.

We communicate, with regret, the following
account of a serious occurrence at Chatham, on
Wednesday night. As we have received no sub-
sequent communication on the subject, we trust
the result has not been so disastrous. as our cor-
respondent seems to anticipate :-
44 CHATUAM, JUNE 27, 11 O'CLOCK, v.M.—A very serious
aTray has taken place this evening among the military stationed
here. The inhabitants for hours have been in the greatest con-
sternation, and many have received injuries in their persons or
property • they have been under the necek;ity of shutting up
their windows and fastening their doors. Report speaks of se-
veral being murdered, but owing to the confusion that exists,
and being near the time of post setting out, am unable to get
particulars of the mischief done. The 86th Regiment and the
_Marines were the principals in the riot.- G enerals DE snono u II
and D'Ancr are in the town, endeavouring to. allay the riot,
and very many of the Officers of the garrison. The barrier
gates have been closed and every person stopped from going to
and from the street to Chatham—at this period every thing, is
tranquil.".(lienti*h Gazette.)
