Eni'ion—Amcingit the various clamours
that have been, raised against the .Credibility of
the Witnesses who haVe given evidence on the,
momentous Question now before the house of.
Lords, none seems. to be repeated with, more
earnestneiit and with less propriety, titan that.
of their being hired to undertake the office.
Our laws,, I admit, .scrnpulously regard the
motivesrby which a Witnessis intluenCed,in giving
evidence ; and will allow of. no remuneration.
being made to him, beyond what would. compen-
sate for his, time, trouble, and, loss. To the.
wiSdoth of, this enactment in the case of izotipe
witnesiel, I most fully subscribe; but I doubt
NOlethei the strict.letter of it should or could be •
:acted up to, when foreigucrs appear in our Courts
of Justiee. Let it bo supposed, for instance, that
the. EMpress of Austria, or the Queen of any
other country, had been pursuing in England
the same course as that Which, has been imputed
to our own Queen; where is the Englishman, this.
Would leaie his native shores, and forego the'
comforts. of his borne, to give evidence atptinit:,
the party accused ? Where is the Englishman,.
•that' would anise to be broW-be4ten by foreign
adVoCates, and to run, perhapi, the risk of as
laSiination ? and all this, Without deriving any,
adiantage to himielf beyond whit he could have
obtained, without leaving those native shores and
foregoing those dotheitit; cOrtiforti; without en-,
countering. the brow':beatings of foreign z•alvo-
-cafes, and exposing himself to the. weapon, of the,
assassin. To suppose that a witness in such a.
case regarded only the inward satisfaction. of
.standing forth the champion of morality, would
be_i romantic childishness.

if such, then, be the fact, how is foreign tes-
timony to be. procured The Italian, probably,,
is attached to his home and his country by the
'same. ties as_ bind the Englishman; and, if it is
not to be expected that, either of them would
break rooie from those ties for the mere promo-.
• tiOn of- justice a strange land; let it not be,
,supposed that the foreign witnessel, who have.
appeared'; Or. arc to appear, at. the Bar of the,
House of Lords, are unable to, speak the truth
• the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, be
-
.cause a compensation, apparently liberal; is to he.
made diem, in_rettirn for the losses which; frorn
the office they have undertaken, as invidious as it
is trupleasanti they must n:Aurally incur.

Tti QUEEN.—,-AtliTittpirst three o'clock yes-
terday her MAJESTY left the House of Lords,
when she_
Tames's- proceeded, in the usual way, to- Saint.
square. Again, in consequence of the,
weather, her landau was closed up, and the peo-
ple in the. streets were not so numerous as pre-
viously. It was about a quarter past 4 o'clock
when the Queen appeared at the window of
her house, Where she Was greeted with clapping
and cheering by the multitude in front, which
trearlY filled• the space between York-street and;
Kinpstreet. After her Majesty had: thanked
the populace for their testimonials of zeal, she
retired todinner. From this period till after five
o'clock every -thing was quiet ; but afterwzirdi
cries of " The Queen! The Queen !" resounded

came again to the window. She was dressed a 5
before, and instead of either a white hat or tur-
ban,. wire' a black r hat .orliain6nted with plumes.
Cheerings and clappiugs were renewed with added
warmth, and her Majesty was pleased to Courtesy,
in return. At nearly six - o'clock her Majesty:
got into- her travelling chariot, and, aecorppa
nied by Lady Ann Ilamilton, proceeded -td,

her Majesty did not appear so well as on former
days.--'•-•PiCkpockets were on t4e alert
