FROM THE MORNING PAPERS.

[New Times.)
The HOUSE of LORDS met again yesterday,
and the Defence of the QUEEN was opened by
Mr. BROUGHAM. The speech of the lion. and
Learned Gentleman consisted principally of a
review of the evidence on the other side. He
has not yet arrived at that part of his observa-
tions where it will be necessary for him to ex-
plain in some measure the nature of the evidence
by which he hopes to prove that his Illustrious
Client is guiltless of the serious offences imputed
to her. For this explanation the public waits
with an impatience and anxiety which can be
satisfied only by a statement of convincing facts,
and not by any display of eloquence or inge-
nuity. In the meanwhile the farce of Address-
ing the Queen continues to be supported with
unabated vigour. Were we to try her conduct
by the test of these Answers, we should be reluc-
tantly forced to confess, that it has been marked
since her arrival in this country with a political
depravity more criminal even than the personal
crimes with which she stands charged. But N% e
cannot, and will not attribute to her a degree of
atrocity that belongs only to those in whose
hands she is unfortunately placed, and who en-
deavour to make her a tool for the execution of
the blackest designs. The author of these de-
testable papers—he is the person whose object it
is to bring into contempt and hatred our
whole Constitution in Church and State—he
it is who announces a new Reformation of
Religion, and declares that the laws enacted
by King, Lords, and Commons, are to be
resisted, if not sanctioned by the higher autho-
rity of the People. The daring avowal of this
treasonable doctrine, a doctrine utterly incon-
sistent with the very existence of Civil Govern-
ment, would in any other age or country have
exposed its author to certain and severe punish-
ment. How long it may be wise, in the present
state of the popular mind, to tolerate such auda-
city in a seditious writer, is a problem which we
cannot pretend to solve. Calm reflection on these
Answers will no doubt convince the respectable
part of society of their real purport and ten-
dency, and with that view we have a second
time selected from them 'various passages, class-
ing them under their proper heads, so as to shew
the uniform spirit of rebellion which runs
through the whole.

[British Press.]

We feel sincere pleasure in observing that Mr.
BROUGHAM has, in the commencement of his
case, declined to exercise what he conceived to be
his right of recrimination. There is as much
prudence as propriety in this resolution. In the
first place the Lords would not stiffer the Queen's
Counsel to pursue such a line of defence to the
Bill ; and in the second, we do not think that, if
the Learned Gentleman were to prove that the
King bad in a thousand instances violated his
conjugal duties, such proof would 'in the opinion
of the public contribute in the slightest degree
to display the innocenc!• of his Illustrious Con-
sort.

least it would not be thought sufficient to over-
throw testimony given on oath. it is then to
the evidence to be produced that we must look
for her Majesty's defence, and not to a speech
which proves what we knew before, that
Many improbable outrages on decency have
been charged, and much depravity (unheard
of before), established on the oath of wit-
nesses who at present seem but too well entitled
to credence. For the present, we shall only
farther observe, tlia-r Mr. Brougham affects to
give a narrative of the Queen's conduct from the
time of her first arrival in this country, but ne-
glects to mention many material 'circumstances,
such as the purpose for which a double house was
taken for her a short distance from Bayswater,
while she resided in Kensington Palace ; and
that he resorts to the hypocritical cant respect-
ing her affection for the Princes's Charlotte, with-
out making any allusion to certain circumstances
which took place in Connaught-place, and to
which the present conduct of her Majesty and
her advisers %I'lll probably force us to call most
particular attention. We shall perform the pain-
ful task with reluctance, but public duty is to
us paramount to all other considerations.
ADDRESSES TO THE QUEEN.—Yesterday proved
another fine day for mobbing, owing to the abun-
dant notices which the Watermen and Lighter-
men had given of their intended excursion to
Caroline Fair at Brandenburgh Mouse. Between
ten and eleven o'clock immense multitudes were
assembled on all the bridges, and ' in the streets
leading to the river, to witness the strange proces-
sion. The boats employed on the occasion were un-
commonly numerous, besides which, there were
three steam vessels and a city barge, all with
flags and bands of music, provided by Alderman
Wood. The procession started from Southwark
Bridge, and as it proceeded and returned guns
were frequently fired from the wharfs and from
barges.—The Addresses of St. George in the
East, and St. Pancras, were also presented yes-
terday. Several women—we beg their pardon,
Ladies we mean, attended the latter. Some of
them were in carts and others in hired coaches.
Such as were Crammed in the latter, excited the
astonishment of spectators by the astonishment
they seemed to feel on finding themselves there.
Some of them were pretty well bedizened out;
but instead of tranquilly leaving it to the. horses
to draw them, they seemed to think it incum-
bent upon them to play some part in the affair,
either by tossing their heads to spew that they
knew how to manage feathers and veils, or by
outstaring the wanderers, or by aiming at some
posture, 'w air, by which they might look " lady-
' ke

[The
,Tunes.]
We should not do justice to Mr. BROUGHAM
and his admirable speech yesterday, if we oc-
cupied much space in the description of his elo-
quence, or the enforcement of his arguments.
We ought not to take to ourselves any consider-
able portion of those columns which are due to
his
_superior claims. His address began about
half after ten ; continued till past one, when he
begged some indulgence, which was of course
granted; was resumed in about three quarters of
an hour; and continued till four, when, without
any request on the part of the speaker, it was
feelingly intimated that the cause, as well as the
pleader, might .suffer from the exhausted state of
the latter ; and an adjournment was proposed
by Lord Grey, and immediately agreed to by
the House, much then remaining to be said. This
is the historical outline of Mr. Brougham's speech
on the first day assigned to the defence of the
Queen of England, on a charge of adultery. The
cause is important ; and yesterday's were really
the first portion of the proceedings,_ which ap-
peared to possess a proportionate degree of con-
sequence ; for, the defence being commenced,
the public may now probably expect to hear
of a few witnesses whose station in life is
such as might be expected in a process of this
nature. We can, indeed, safely assert, that the
history of civilized nations presents, up to the
present time, no example of a person near her
Majesty's rank against whom an accusation was
sustained by none other than persons of the
lowest and most servile stations. A common in-
dictment for shoplifting or passing Bank-notes in
London would produce evidence on both sides—
both for the forger and the shoplifter, as well as
for their prosecutors—more decent and respect-
able than any which has been brought forward
by the Attorney and Solicitor-General against
their Master's Royal Consort, though those
Learned Gentlemen had the means, if they had
dared to use them, of calling before the house
all her Majesty's English attendants. Our ob-
servation is merely personal ; for an investigation
of the evidence itself, its contradictions, impro-
babilities, and impossibilities, we must refer the
public to' the speech itself.

[Mornirl ;017'071h:1e.]

Time and many corroborating circumstances
have now proved. that there no foundation
whatever for the report, circulated last week, of
a large naval armament being 'preparing for fo-
reign service.. We shall state -the grounds on
which we conceive the story got afloat. The first
dispaiches sent over to our Government by the
Lisbon Regency, gave a picture of the Oporto
Revolution, in similar terms to that of Coalmen-
dador Correa, which,we published on Monday,
representing it as the act of a faction, &c. arid a
positive demand, no tlouht, fonoded on eNisting,
and raouey.
Treaties, was made of men, ships,

[PRICE SEVENPENCE.

This demand, "in all probability, was under the
consideration of the Cabinet; but tho next packet
brought a counter order from the Regency ; .they
were then better informed, and foresaw that the
interference of a foreign Government would in-
volve their country in civil war and desolation.

COURT OF KING'S. BENCH, OCT. 3.
PEI:JUICY IN MINS GLENN'S CASE.
THE KING V. MARIA GLENN.

This was an indictment for perjury against
Maria Glenn, comitted by her, in the prosecu,
tion of Bowditch' and others, at the Doncaster
Assizes, in 1818.—We have•already Ode Paper
of yesterday) given, the. evidence at great' length,
in the case of the King v. Mary -Whitby, who
was the associate of the present defendant. It is
only necessary to say, that Miss Glenn was con-
victed upon the same testimony of perjury.—Mr.
Serjeant P•ELL, her Counsel, when he heard the
case against her, threw up his brief.—The trial
lasted till five in the evening.
