conceived, must ultimately guide and influence
the decision of the House. It was therefore most
necessary no w, beforele advanced to the consider-
ation of particularS, to recal their Lordships to the
leading circumstances of this important case. The
first Circumstance of moment was the entrance of
Bergami into her Majesty's service in the year
1814, when their Lordships would remark, that
from no reasonable cause, excepting the adulter-
ous intercourse now alleged to have taken place
at that period, this man was in a fow short months
advanced by her then Royal Highness, iu a most
ex.traordinary way ; within a short period, too, his
infant child, together with the greater part of his
family, were ixermitted to compose the Princess's
suite, and even '.+ Pile he himself was still a courier,
lie was allowed to dine at her table. Soon after he
was advanced to a higher rank, loaded with titles
and honours, which it would be idle to sui.pose.
were procured .hy any means, other than the re-
' "sources of the Queen, with whom he was proved
to be living on intimate terms. This intercourse
had been distinctly proved by the testimony of
different witnesses, who, (whether. they were to
be believed or not, it was for their Lordships to
decide,) had consecutively deposed to the fact.
Bergami was thus retained by her Majesty till she
reached the opposite shore, when parted from her
only to retire to that estate which she had purchased
for him, but be was not dismissed from her service.
There were some of those circumstances in this
case upon which he wished their Lordships to
reflect, when considering the preamble of the Bill.
NV hen, therefore, their Lordships were told by his
Learned Friends to take the polacca scene, or any
other detached scene, and then decide by that
scene itself on the merits of the case, this might
suit the purpose of his Learned Friends ex-
tremely well; but he was confident that -, their
' Lordships would take all the circumstances and
facts together, in order to come to any kind of
decision. ,It would hereafter be his duty
to examine and refute those futile reasons
which his Learned Friends on the opposite
side had assigned in justification of the ad-
vancement of Bergami by the Queen. But he
was certain their Lordships would not exclude
from their consideration the hasty advancement
of Bergami, the introduction of his family to the
Household of; her 11Tajesty, the estate he had
got by her, and the way in which all these favours
were conferred. He nonr wished to proceed, with
the permission of their Lordships, to examine the
testimony in detail, and also the different circum-
stances connected with, it,. assured that he should
receive their Lordships' attention, while pursuing
an examination so absolutely necessary irr the
present case.—(Left speaking.)

POINT OF IloNoun.—lt is, curious in our pas-
sage through life to observe the variety, both
in sentiment and practice, evinced by men, from
whose habits and situation some harmony of
conduct and feeling might be rationally expected.
Some persons, to adopt the language of Burke,
" feel a stain like a wound," while others are
less acute in their -perceptions of dimity and ho-
nour. • Lieutenant Hownain does not think it de-
rogatory to a Queen that she should dine with
her Footman ; Capt. "'echell, his superior in rank,
does think it to be so. Lieutenant flown=
thOught•it an honour to sit down at table with
that servant, because his employer commanded
him: to keep low company ; Captain Pechell
refused to. dine with the domestic because
ht thought.that no person could legally com-
pel him to degrade his own character. in
the examination of Sir John Beresford, we
have also the following- question and answer :
" Did you never, tell William Carrington that,he
was to be on the quarter-deck, when he replied
that he had neither friends nov money to sup-
port him there ?" a lie never told me any
such thing ; and after he told me that he wanted
to be Sir W. Dell's servant, it was very unlikely
that I should propose to him to be an Officer in his
Majesty's service." Now, here the Lieutenant,
the Captain, and the -Admiral (all in the same
service), are at direct issue on a point of honour.

BERGAMT.=A. letter, of recent date, from an
English traveller in Italy, says—" We left the
oaths of Lucca for Florence, and after staying a
few days to have the carriages repaired, continued
our route to Bologna. Bergami, the Baron of such
reputed fame, breakfasted at the same hotel at
which we were staying. He was going from Milan

the money of his Royal Mistress. lie travelled

TILE SEDITIOUS ILANnZILLs,--It now appears
that the charge against Or. DENIS O'BnYEN, con-
necting him with this mysterious affair, was found-
ed in error. Nothing having been heard from
the prosecutors in the affair, for _several days
past,• Mr. BIKNIE, •we understand, addressed
a letter .to • Mr. Harmer yesterday, inquiring
what was to be done with the warrant still
remaining in the hands of the officer, and
also reminding Mr. Harmer that Mr. O'Bryen
had • Come- :forward voluntarily,' and was still
ready to meet,thern. In an.iwer to this, we are'
informed, th.i t Mr. Harmer sent a written apo:
logy for the trouble which had been given the
worthy Magistrate, and adding that the bill-
sticker, Jones, having seen Mr. O'Bryen, subse-
quently to making his deposition, was convincedp
he had mistaken his persOn.
