THE QUEEN.

Sir J. NEWPORT expressed a wish to know whether, if
he Bill at prespnt pending in the other House with respect
:u her Majesty, were brought down to that House, it was

the intention of Ministers to propose the same course of pro.
ceeding that had been followed by the Lords, and whether

it ums intended to move a Cali of the House. It was desir-
able to inform the .House upon thiStObjeFt, io order to guard
against any surprise in the event of the Bill being suddenly
brought down from the Lords; and also in order that those
Gentlemen who had any business to transact at distant parts
of the United Kingdom might taket-lueans to have that busi-
ness done in due time.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, he was
sure that every individual whO had the honour to be a Nletn-
bee of that House, would feel it his duty to attend upon such

a solemn occasion.

Sin .1. NEWPORT declared that be did not put the clues-

tion which he had repeated from any solicitude for his own
case, but for the satisfaction of others who, instead of being
left to conjecture and surmise, wished to haoe something

certainty upon this subject.
M'CLEOD AND BRUCE.
Mr. J. P. GRANT requested to know whether in the ease
of Nl‘Cleod, who had been sentenced in Scotland to transpor-
tation for a seditious offence, it was the intention of his Mit•
jesty's Ministers to recommend him to mercy ? He put this.
question because, from all the circumstances of the case, such
sentence ought to be mitigated. His Noble Friend near
him had, it was hitown, given notice of a, motion to abolish
he power of transportation for sedition in Scotland, and it
was also known that many high authorities in Scotland
tertained serious doubts as to the legality of such a power.
These doubts were indeed expressed in a late case by one of
the Judges of the Court of Session, and under such circum-
stances he submitted that the sentence against iSPCleod should
not be carried into execution.
The Hon. CLIVE said, that neither the, Law Officers
of the Crown in Scotland, nor the proper Officer in this
country, saw any reason to recommesid M'Leod to mercy.
Lord J. RUSSELL .eked upon, what ground it was deter-
mint d to transport Bruce, who was convicted at the last As-
Aces of Chester. This certainly was a case of very peculiar
character; for if Bruce were guilty, the punishment was too
'little, anti if he were innocent, that ponishmea, was too
much—or rather, if he were innocent, why should he be pu-
nished at all ?
The Hon. Mr. CLIVE said, that his Maje?ty's Ministers
saw no reason to recommend any alteration, to the present
sentence upon the person alluded to.
MESSAGE FROM THE LORDS.
A Message front the Lords stated their 'Lordships' assent to'
the Ireland ,Harboor Big, the Paper Duty Bill, and the Union
Duty Bill; also that their Lordships had passed a Bill for the•
divorce of the Hononrabie Mr. Pellew, to which they required
the consent of that House:
BANKRUPTCY COURT BILL.
The Report of the Bankruptcy Court Bill was brought op,
and ordered to lie taken into further consideration on that day
fortnight, and llte Bill to be printed.
PENRYN.
Sir C. BURRELL' staled it to lie his intention not to pro-'
ceed with his Bill respecting the BoroSifr,h of Penryo, till the
Bill brought in by a Noble Lord for disfranchising another
place should be disposed of.
SCOTCH VOTERS.
Lord A. HAMILTON moved, that certain Papers which he
had called for on a former 4/ casion should he printed. His,
object was to establish, first, the paucity of person; entitled to.
vote in some parts of Scoland ; secondly,- to show that the
same names were repeated in various counties of Scotland:
and thirdly, lie wished to show, what he admitted would not
be seen prima facie front these,papers, that of those who had-
a right tnvote, none were possesSed of any landed property.
It being suggested that the papers, could not be printed int
1 heir' present form without coosiderable espence, the Noble
Lord declined pressing his motion, and said, he could take
till to-'morrow to consider if a selectiiin could be wade for hira
to answer his purpose.
RIOTS IN is.l6.
Mr. P. MOORE postponed his motion on the case of Mr.
Beckwith, and other gunsmiths, who suffered in their pro-
perly by the Itiots I if, 1816.
Mr. CALVERT moved that certain returns from the Soli-
citor's Department in the rwtorns, which he had
moved t.,r
which had, not yet been
sortie time since, bat I,._ordered.presented• to
the House, should be trade forth* t
DIVORCE BILL.
Sir J. GRAHAM presented a Petition frOm Edward Brims,
the agent to Captain Polltw, the prayer of which was, that

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
Wednesday last. In the Chamber of Peers on
Tuesday, the Marquess GAUNTER reported from
the Committee on the Budget of Supply; the dis-
cussion was ordered to be opened on Friday. In
the Chamber of Deputies, a long and stormy
debate arose out of a Petition from the Inhabitants
of Gogolin (Department of Var), respecting the
assassination of the Duke de BERRI, which
stated, that in an Address from them to the
KING on that subject, they had not been urged
on by any directing Committee, as insinuated in
some other Petition. These expressions re-pro-
duced all the angry encounters that formerly took
place, including the charge by M. CLAUZEL DE
COUSSERGUES against the Duke DECAZES, which
it was supposed he had withdrawn, but which he
now declared was not the fact. After much tu-
mult and agitation, M.: CLAUZEL DE COUS.
SERGUES left the Chamber, and it was then
asserted that he had again withdrawn his
charge, but it does not appear very clearly
whether this was the fact. The discussion was
then opened upon the treaty with Algiers, which
after hearing several speeches was adjourned till
Wednesday. The following are Extracts :
" PARIS, JULY 12.—The King received yes-
terday the Ambassadors and Foreign Ministers,
and afterwards transacted business with the
Boron Pasquier, the Duke de Richelieu, and the
Minister of War.

" Gfeat preparations' are making at St. Cloud
for the reception of the Court.
" The Sieur Bartolomeo Bergami, who plays
so important a character in the proceedings re-
specting the Queen of England, and who accom-
panied her Majesty from Italy to Calais, resides
at present at Paris.--(Journal de Paris.)
" The man named Bergami, who is mentioned
in the Bill in the English House of Peers, is at
present at Paris ; he was seen a few days
since in the balcony of the Opera Buffa. This

" VIENNA, JUNE 29.---All the accounts from
Turkey agree in stating, that Ali Pacha is
anxious to be reconciled with the Porte."

It is no slight gratification for us to find, that
the arguments which we advanced as to the itn-
policy and danger of permitting the QUEEN'S
Counsel to have a list of the Witnesses which
are to be brought against her, are .supported by
the opinions of the LORD 'CHANCELLOR and other
Noble Lords of high talents and extensive know-
ledge. We had not the presumption.te attempt
to reason. upon legal grounds on this occasion,
because we were assured that the question would
be decided on those grounds, as well,as upon
those of moral justice. But we are persuaded
that the course of justice would have been ob-
structed, if not wholly frustrated, by other mea-
Sures. The same spirit that induced the savage
Rioters-of Dover to attack the foreign Witnesses
would have operated -in other quarters, and perhaps
not one of them would have reached-this Country
in. safety, 'if they had not fallen victims abroad:
We find, by a paragraph in The. Morning Chro-
nicle- of this day, which we have included in our
Daily Extracts from the London Journals, that
a- woman, formerly named PLOMER, a public
Singer in this Country and in various places on
the Continent, who lately returned to England
under the title of Marchioness of SOLANI, having
married an Italian Nobleman at Venice, is dead.
I'he Chronicle states, " that she had been
introduced to the QUEEN, and was present
at some of her PartieS in Venice." The
Chronicle also states, that this Person was to
be " one of the principal female -Witnesses
against THE QUEEN."—We do not believe that
the Chronicle has any authority for such an as-
sertion, or had any- opportunity of - knowing.—
But -that she had the-power of pointing out those
who might become important and credible wit-
nesses is certain, and therefore her death cannot
but be a gratifying circumstance to the enemies of
justice. We saw this person a very few days
ago, apparently in the most perfect health,
and though life is uncertain to all, the
particular situation -in - which-- she stood ren-
ders highly proper that 'inquiry' should be
made into the circumstances of her death at this
critical period. Little dependence, we admit,
could be placed on her own testimony, but she
could have referred to those whose evidence
might be highly important, and wholly unim-
peachable. It is rather surprizing, considering
the former life of this Person, which must have
been well known in Italy, that she should
have , been admitted into the private parties
of the QUEEN, but the fact is indisputable.
But to return, to the required list of Witnesses
that might be brought against 'her MAJESTY ; it
may be observed that it will be full time to im-.
peach the characters of those witnesses when the
trial. commences, as her MAJESTY'S OWU witnesses
will probably come from the same places, and
will, of course, be able to give due information
as to the character and credibility of the others.
We cannot but recur to the interesting declara-
tion -of one of his Majesty's Ministers, impres-
sively-delivered in the House of Commons, im-
porting that the names of those persons were
known who had furnished the CATO-STREET Con-
spirators with the means to purchase arms. We
repeat that we are not surprised at the silence
of the Opposition Journals on this subject, for
`many reasons, but we must also repeat our surprise
that none of the Hunters for grievances in Parlia-
ment-, the L.tMBTONS, the BENNETS, the CREE.-
rs.,--and, we may add, the BURDETWV have
.
not made an appeal to Ministers, and solemnly
demanded a disclosure of the intimation so so-
lemnly announced.---Indeed Ministers, in justice
to themselves, and to the country, are bound to
expose the iniquitous patrons and abetters of the
wretched culprits, whose lives have paid the for-
feiture of their crimes, unless there are strong
grounds of policy to forbid the disclosure.

The Old Times.—T his Paper we find repeats
its former account of the origin and progress in
life of the VICE-CHANCELLOR, though the false-
hood of that account was satisfactorily demon-
strated yesterday in the New Times, by which it
has been eclipsed in the opinion of all wise and
honest teen. A true account of the origin and
progress of The Old Times, would, from all we
have heard, form a very curious and in-
structive article in the History of Newspapers
and will probably be given to the Public, unless
there should be some essential change in its con-

duct. By the way, it is worthy of notice that
BEROAMI is a favourite character with The Old
Times) which every day heaps eulogiums upon
'his origin, his virtues, his talents and connexions,
pronouncing him fit for the .society of -Princet ! !
The man is now in Paris, and is consequently
near enough to give constant supplies of such
intelligence and hints as may be highly accept-
able to any English 'Journal that may be-totally
indifferent to reputation, and wholly absorbed
in self-interest. The man is well known to be
possessed of money, however obtained, and what.
ever may be his other talents, is certainly
possessed also of cunning sufficient to know
how. to lay it out •with advantage, to the
promotion of his future views and interests.—
The Old Times thinks proper to persevere in
alluding to what it styles the " Infamous Com-
mission" to Milan,..as its general designation,
though that designation was given by itself, in the
first inst4nce, and seems to-have been wholly con-
fined to itself; since it was fully justified as a
measure of necessary inquiry for the . ends of
truth: and justice!!!

The Duke de CAZES arrived yesterday after-
noon at the mansion of the French Embassy, in
Portland-place. His Excellency was. accompa-
nied by his family ; and his suite occupied five
large travelling carriages.
Yesterday, his MAJESTY, attended by Sir
BENJAMIN BEoomEIET.u, rode on horseback.
The KING met the Duke of WELLINGTON in the
ride in St. James's Park ; his Grace joined his
MAJESTY in his ride.' The public of all ranks
stopped to pay their dutiful respect-, which his
MAJESTY acknowledged in the most affable and
condescending. manner.

His MAJESTY, it is said, will honour Brightol
Races with his presence, and also his Royal High-
ness the Duke of YORK, who intends to start
four horsec there.

Yesterday the Earl of CATHCART had an au-
dience of his MAJESTY.

The Dukes of Yonic and CLARENCE Visited
th? KING yesterday.

The Duke of CAMBRIDGE dined with the
KING, at his Palace in Pall-mall, on Thursday:
Prince LEOPOLD left town yesterday evening
for Claremont.

The Newcastle-upon-Tyne Address was yes-
terday presented to the QUEEN, who returned
thanks in the usual terms.

The second payment of the New Loan (half a
million) was made yesterday, and it is expected
the Bank-will now take in the Oninium, that is,
pay the future instalments, being allowed five per
cent. per annum interest for the money advanced.
The Algerines have renewed their old system
of piracy in the most audacious manner. They
have sent a squadron of five vessels to sea, for
the purpose of making war upon the commerce of
of all those nations which are not represented at
Algiers, and whose resentment they are notafraid
to provoke.

Yesterday the Marquess and Marchioness of
WATERFORD and family arrived at their house in
Mansfield-street, Portland-place, from their seat
in Ireland, after an absence from this country of
nearly seven years.
The late Earl of STRATHMORE was married to
Miss MILLNER, on Sunday, the 2d July, at St.
George's Church, Hanover-square. His Lordship
has left a son, who claims the Earldom of Strath-
more. The Barony of Bowes is extinct; his
Lordship's estates were not entailed.

On Tuesday the Lord Bishop of this Diocele
concluded his course of visitation by a confirma-
tion in the Cathedral Church of this City. About
1700 of both sexes, by this solemn rite, which
was most impressively performed by his Lord-
ship, received their full admission into the Chris-
tian community. The parishes were first mar-
shalled in the Close, and being admitted into the
body of the Cathedral, were seated during the
time the Bishop read the service. They were
then arranged by convenient portions around the
Altar, and the imposition of hands took place.
The utmost order prevailed.—(Norwich illercurg,
July 14.)

GLASGOW, JULY 11.--This morning, about five
o'clock, there was some disturbance between
some of the inhabitants and some men of the Rifle
Brigade ; but, from the activity of the Police,
nothing serious occurred. One of the soldiers,
who had his skull fractured in the affray with the
Police, on Wednesday se'nnight, died on Sunday
evening.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.—The very _pleasant
Comedy of Teasing made Easy was represented
last night at this Theatre, and uniformly well
supported. The chief novelty was ,the appear-
ance of FARLEY in Peter Pastoral, which he per-
formed with ludicrous effect. The second piece
was the humorous sketch of A Day after the
TVedding, in which JONES and Msr. GIBBS ac-
quitted themselves so well that they were fre-
quently interrupted by the laughter of the
audience. The Company is really much improved
by new additions, but we cannot at present no-
tice their distinct pretensions.
The Lottery finally closed on the 12th instant,
in which J. and J. SIVEWRIGHT, with their usual
good fortune, Sold in Shares No. 9814, 20,0001.
and No. 12,313, 10,0001. and various Minor Ca-
pitals. A new Lottery is expected. to be con-
tracted for in a few days : if J. and J. Sivr-
WRIGHT should happen to be - the Contractors,
they trust to produce a Scheme which shall be
as deservedly popular as any of those which have
met such superior approbation of the Public,
that in every instance where they have hien
Contractors the Sale has nearly doubled each pre-
ceding Contract. Unlike the Scheme just con-
cluded, in the framing and management of which
they have simply to state they had no concern
whatever.
