It is expected ilhat the death of the Duchess of
York will occasion a postponement of the pro-
ceedings in the House of Lords relative to her
Majesty. They must certainly be put off until
some short time after the funeral of the lamented
Friacess. Rumour says that a longer delay will
be interposed, and that some arrangement may
still be.

rejoice if this report should prove to be founded
on solid grounds of rational expectation.—ln con-
sequence of the death of•her Royal Cousin her Ma-
jesti has postponed receiving several Addresses
which-were to be presented to her. Amongst them
is one from some Inhabitants of • Norwich,- and
another professing to come from the Mechanics

be recollected, originated at a Meeting in a pub-
Jic-house, noticed in our Paper of the Ist instant.
The radical character of the whole affair will
be easily conjectured from the circumstance that

His Majesty afterwards transacted business with

" A Belgic Journal, of the 2d inst., has the
following postscript :---C We this instant learn,
by our private correspondence from Germany, of

" NAPLES, J ur.Y 18.—On the 13th in the

evening there was a grand illumination at the
Theatre St. Charles ; when the Duke of Calabria
and the Prince of Calabria appeared in their box,
they were received with the loudest applause.
" The Provisional Junta held their first Sitting-

yesterday.
'4 Lieut.-General D. Michel Carrascosa, is ap-
pointed Secretary of State, Minister of War, by
a Decree of the Prince, Lieut.-General of the
Kingdom, dated the 14th. Two other De'orees
of his Royal Highness have been issued, dated
the 15th, one creating two Juntas, who are to pre-
pare within a month two lists of Officers, distin-
guishing those who are to be retained, reformed,
or allowed to retire,, and the other appointing
9 Members to form the first Junta, and twelve
for the second. The two Committees are to
have for Presidents, one, the General-in-Chief,
and the other the Lieutenant-General the

It was our avowed determination to- avoid
touching upon the subject of THE QUEEN, but-
the;absurdities and falsehoods of the Opposition
Writers compel us to forsake our purpose. Yet
never will we utter a syllable. that can presume
guilt or prejudge her case. 'Ehe OPposition
Writers, however, have the folly and the imprt-•
deuce to deny that she has a fair trial,:ancl therefOre
they contend that the prosecution ought at once,
to be dropped. That ground is wholly untena-
ble,. because a more enlightened,. a more impartial,
and a more honourable Tribunal than that which
is to try this lamentable cause, never has existed..
If a cessation of proceedings were to follow from
consideration of the confusion which might arise
from the result of -those proceedings, whether
favourable or otherwise to 'rut QUEEN, as
the welfare of the State is not concerned in the
decision, most heartily should-we rejoice if auy
means
,could be devised to avert so irksome and
sodangerous an investigation.. Rut, as we have
before said, that matter depends upon THE
QUEEN herself. She instigated the-question, and
in the face of
.the Nation demanded an inquiry
that otherwise never would have taken place.
She only can retreat, and if she makes no over-
ture for that purpo'se the inquiry must proceed,
whatever may be the consequence to the Country
and to herself. What danger has the evil Coun-
sellors of this unhappy QUEEN brought.upon her
and upon the Country ! They have induced her
to make a raree show or- herself in the. public
street, with none but mob spectators and auditors,
and they have prompted her to demand an
investigation which is. pregnant with danger to
the Realm. Ttleconscionsneos of her innocence
must be . rnote gratifying to her than the most
ample acquittal by her Judges. She should re-

The Morning Chronicle of this day tells us is to
