[New Times.]

Every day adds to the pits
.with which we
contemplate a Queen of England fallen under
the control of a set of factious:and desperate
wretches, and forced at then., ,command to belie
the sentiments of her heart, and even to contra-
dict her own recorded opinions and resolutions.
Let us only cast back our view
,a few short
weeks, and we shall find her',MajestY, at the
suggestion of, her; legal advisers, replying in the
following dignified manner to an Address of the
Nottingham Radicals, :who complained " that
the nation laboured under manifold grievances
from a crud misrule":
Sitictrely," said the Queen, "as I ton:t. ever deplore the
distreses that may fall on' any of toy frilow-ttljects,.l must

proaches on 'their supposcd,authors. come tit this

mtyitits with my just canse.'7
, This was when her Majesty was guided by the,
sound and judicious ad ;ice of her Law ,Officers.
Now let us see how she is made to act, under the.
iniltience of :a very different, set of counsellors.
A set of poor, ignorant journeymen had present-
ed her with anonsensical farrago, cast exactly in,
the same mould as--that of the Nottingham.

buked: She tells her new Addressers',that
they possess " a large 'stock of virtue and intelli-

,She learnedly harangues on the prodtictiVe'pbwers
Of the country and the rank which the industrious
classes ought to hold " in the asceut-of liondura-

clares that 44 it is owing to the hur :beartedness

them the flattering hope that " ere long these
things will only be as the troubled Scenery of a
dreath;" in other words, that a time is at hand when
the 4-ourneyman will be Master, and the Master,
Journeyman..--It is hardly necessary to ask whe-
ther this is not "mixing political animosities" with
her Majesty's cause. Assuredly it is not much
like 44 declining to speculate on the probable
causes of distress," or 44 to cast reproaches on
their supposed authors:" It is retailing the very
arguments by which Cobbett has been so long
labouring to arm the poor against the rich, and
to produce that social convulsion in which the
queen would- certainly not be the last, or the

fortune.

The LORD CHANCELLOR announced, that the

Lord Bishop •of Lincoln, who, as Bishop of Lin-
Coln, had attended yesterday, had since been
confirmed as Lord Bishop of Winchester. As
Bishop of Lincoln he could not sit that day, and
he could_ not take his seat as Bishop of Winches-
ter till his temporalities were.restored.
The LOUD CHANCELLOR -had also received a

letter from the ..Marquis of. Salisbury, stating,
that though he might have availed himself of the
exemptions allowed by their, Lordships in _favotir
of Peers abuse .the age of- 70, yet he had thought
it, more respectful :to attend 'in his. place.. His
health had suffered so,much from his attendance
yesterday, . that he was arrow enabled to state.
tiPon his honour, that he could not be present
Without great danger, and he therefore humbly
hoped that his -attendance .might be dispensed

of the argument .was levelled agaiUst the consti-
