fence ; and the Ring now refused to be in the same
country with her, as he had before resolved not
to meet lyr in the same drawing-room. A threat
had been employed to deter hes. from coming--a
bribe ised been offered to induce her not to lalld ;
and when this failed, and a message was sent to
them, they had a right to inquire into the real
state of the cafe before they went into evidence—
evidence into which he thought they ought not to
go at all. The House was asked to enter upon
this investigation, on which a Rill, perhaps even
a 1111 of Attainder might be founded, by a mes-
sage from the King. Nuts' let them look how
they stood. '!'he King was diatinctly the prose-
cutor, and it their proceedings went to the length
which he had contemplated, and the useasitre
went through . Parliament, the King would
ultimately be the judge. He advised the House
to pause. He apprized it not to interfere hastily
let an affair between hnsliand And wife. Since the
time of Henry VIII, they had had no precedent of
the kind, and that was not very tempting to in-
duce them to follow it, though fifteen Ministers
had left their public do ies last night to go to arm
against a woman. That woman, let ilsent remem-
ber, teas .a daughter of the Honse of liruns%viek—
she was the niece of the late King—she was the
cousin and wife of the present—she was the mother
of the late Princess Chatlotte. It that lamented
Priocess were alive, did they believe that soch
message as tLey hid heard to-night would have
beets delivered tNo such thing. Let ;bens; con-
sider, then, before they entered owns a course
reenant constquences of winch it im-
possible to foresee ti-se end. As it might be more
convenient, be •hould wait till .o-morrow before
the made the uses: ion which he hadinesstioned, for
an at:cosily of die negociations at St. Otuer's ; but
be ,could have reckoned himself disgraced it lie
bad not risen this night to say as much as be had

done.
Sir R. WlLsost noticed the painful nature of
tb subject, and, though he wished to avoid tKe-
sent discussion, could not resist calling on the
house to protect the Queen from any indignity
during the period that the prosecution against her
might last. He Old not speak of such indigni-
ties as the Niinisters of this country at foreign
Courts, awl these foreign Courts themselves, had
been accustomed to treat her with ; but he would
say that it was disgraceful, considering her sta-
tion, and till she was judicially deprived of it,
that no fitter vessel should have been found to
sent) to Calais bit' a common passage-boat in
wiiich to hoist the Royat flag. It was disgraceful
that lite Queen should hose no home to go to in
this country, no place of residence, no root to
slit+ er her, except the roof of au honest man.—
Oluch v.vas an honest titan, for
he discLarged his duties with honour and fidelity.
It was, he repeated, outrageous that her Nlajes:y
stmold be obliged to seek an asylum in the house
of an individu 11, instead of having assined to her
one of the Palaces belonging to the Crown.—
Ile was sure the King 11,0111f1 not permit any in-
dig,,ity to be offered to her, who was once the
of his affection, and still the partner of his
Throne.
-Lord A. HAMILTON deemed no opportunity to
so plover as the present for making a few ob-
servations on this subject. He differed from the
Mott. Member who thought that the striking of
the ()oven's name from the Liturgy was only a
; he considered it as one whilt
du,dit to he coed on the present occasion, as
tdioNiog a predeterminatioo on the part if his
1t1aj,,.-oy's Ministers to condemn her Majesty with-
out a heating and without a trial—(Hear
believed, from an inspection of the Act of Fir-
bat-tient, that the exclusion of her Majesty's name
from the Church Service was illegal ; but
supposing it, for the sake of argument, to be
let al, could it be considered as a matter of in-
difference as related to her Majesty ?---(Cries of
Lear !)—Was it not a principle of British justice,
established furor one end of the King's dominions
to the other, that every nelson shall be considered
innocent moil they shall be found in due course
of law guilty? Was the Queen to be the only per-
son in the island who was to be denied the bene-
fit of thisyrinciple He should contend that, as
an act of common justice, the name of the Queen
ought to be replaced in the Liturgy, before arty
measures of inquiry were proceeded in. The
public mind had been prejudiced by the acts of
Ministers; and it was must material that, if it.
were no,v to come to the 'question of guilty,
or not guilty, against the Queen, the public mind
should not be tampered with, or prepidieed be-
forehand. The Noble Lord then alluded to the
Order in Council with respect to the omission of
her Majesty's name in the Liturgy. That Or-
der had been sent even out of the jurisdiction of
Ministers ; it bad been sent to Scotland; but in
Scotland it had been treated as waste paper ;
many of the most respectable Clergy had acted
in defiance of it ; and not long since, in the very
assembly to which that order had been sent, a re-
solution had been voted, condemning the order
as an improper interference with the service of
the Church of Scotland.. The Noble Member
concluded by hoping, that if the Noble Lord
(Castlereagh) and his Colleagues intended to give
to the Queen that advantage which was riot denied
to the poorest or to the guiltiest subject—the
benefit of an impartial hearing—they would re-
trace their steps, and place her Majesty's name
in the same situation in which it stood bad before
their interference.

Mr. DaNMAN spoke as follows :--Sir, it is not
ply intention 'to pursue this discussion, which,
both 'in a personal and constitutional point of
view, I shall find fitter oppottunities to enter upon
hereafter. I ant afraid, too, that at present I
may he betrayed into some of that ardent feeling
displayed by my Honourable niend (Mr. Ben-
diet), though, I will say, tl►at I UIII 1e54 alarmed
by his warmth, than by the temperance, calm-
, pess, and coldness with which the Noble Lord
opposite has opened a subject so threatening to
the individual against whom these measures are
directed, and so replete wills consequences hostile
to the tranquillity of the country. In the situa-
tion in which I am placed, however, 3 cannot pirr
zit this subject to advance withssut taking
the
earliest oppottnuity of asking one question..
