ever their sycophants say) may be formed front
title following fact—that tkev now affect to assert
that they were forced into theinL--that they had
no choice.. 1:). hat absurdity ! A man may be
forced to submit to an earthquake, or a year of.
famine, or a conflagration : but how can men he
forced (not to suffin), but actively and energeti-
cally,. so far r.s their natures allow, to 'co that
which both themselves. and every party con-
cerned are averse to have done ? The Queen is
averse to the inquiry (as what woman would not
be so ?)---to Ake public imputation of obscene
falsehoods against herself." The King must be
averse to the prosecution of a near relation in
blood, as well as of a wife, although he has
quitted her. The nation is averse to hearing the
tilthy.accuSalior. Parliament declared theinquiry
derogatory from the dignity of the CroWril. and
the irsterests of the. State. What unseen- poWer,
then, forced Ministers upon a;procedure which, by
all the-powers of human violation, they were with-
held from
,proseCuting, ? Respectable people, they
Say,-brought them odious accounts from abroad of
her Majesty's conduct. Why did they not produce,
these. re'Spectable 'people on the trial ? All the.
respectable people that were produced gave evi-
dence in the Queen's favour : such' as' Lady
Lindsay, Lord Guilford, Mr. K. Craven, Sir W.
Gell ; .and 'the only people
,called by Ministers'
against her, were the respectable Non mi Ricordo,
Rastelli, De Mont,
,and the rest of the tribe.
. But we shall say; that if respectable people
brought even hearsay evidence to the ears of Ili-
nisters against their Queen, the proper course to
have 'teem pursued would have been, not to watch
secretly and silently, and dog the Royal victim
into this trap ; but to -have informed her of the
slanders that were circulated against her—to
have.warned her of the dangers by which she
was surrounded--and to have recalled her to
her home then what force, we ask, could have
ultimately obliged -them to recur.to these odious
acts of crimination and injustice ? - Of the'secret
intrigues forinducing het:Majesty to relinquish
her rights, we know nothing more than what ap-
peared in the late debate, and shall therefore dis-
miss the subject, which is in truth of but trifling
importance, very
,briefly. It seems that some
proposition was made, but without her Majesty's
knowledge, in the summer of 1810, the principle
being thather Majesty should relinquish some-
what of her justrights. But it is at once obvious
from the avowed opinions of the persons con-.
corned in making that proposition, " that they
could -be the bearers of no proposition, of which
-the acknowledgment, specific or implied, of her
Majesty's Majesty's innocence, should not be the corre-
-sponding basis." How 'could a compromise be
'tendered by such negociatorsbetween crirninality
and mitigated degradation, when they themselves
believed no criminality to exist ? whereas, every
proposal of Ministers has rested upon this ground -
—" Relinquish your rights, or we, will try yon'
for your misconduct." From no proposition,
therefore, made at the period alluded to, could
it rationally be inferred that the -Queen 'would
submitto the, curtailment of her privileges, on
the ground subsequently assumed by Ministers.
