" A letter from Marseilles of the I 7th says,
the alarming reports for which the events at
Paris have been made the pretext here by a
handful of malcontents, who find their most
Powerful auxiliary in the public credulity, render
its matter of deep regret that the telegraphic

THE LAUNCH.
INll‘lO 'roux, JUNE I.—Yesterday was a proud
4'Y for New York; it presented to 'tier the Ohio her
-rsi and most splendid ship of the line ; she moved
"to her destined element, at 25 minutes past 11,
2 grace and style that tittles all descripti,:n.
Not less, perhaps, than 20,000 persons witnessed
this scene ; when safe on the deep the Ohio sa-
inted, and was saluted by the Washington of 74,
and then by the Hornet sloop of war.
(Frum the liceltinanre Paper of the Ist June.)
FROM Nee ORLEANI3.—A pasenger in the last
Iteanl•boat from New Orleans, reports that Ce-
•ntral LONG has recognised the expedition against
Ntexas, and includes in his views the whole of
ett
Alexico• lie has at present about 5000
thas roops ander his command at Galvestown, and
EllurCoYer Ql);sined assistance fro:n the lie-

nezuelean Patriots, who ,have sent him their Get
and Admiral.-LAFITTB, the pirate, has also
joined this band of adventurers. If these reports
prove correct, we may look for operations of ra-
ther a decisive character.

As the Secret Committee of the House of
Lords have began their examination of the con-
tents of the Green Bag, containing the charges
against Her MAJESTY, it WOW be highly impro-
per in us to make any observations, except to
say that we ought to take some credit to our-
selves for having constantly urged that this was
the only course that could be adopted, while all
our Comlietitors,without exception, recommended
the total removal of the Bags, sod consequently
the suppression of the charges. Wei this justice,
morality, or common sense ? Not THE QUEEN
alone would have suffered, for by consenting to
such suppression she would appear to shrink from
inquiry from
_a consciousness of guilt, but Mi-
nisters would be thought to have wanted proof,
or to be indifferent to the cause of justice, the
honour of their' Sovereign, and the opinion of
mankind. We blamed them for yielding too rea-
dily to the call •of those who proposed -a'
preliminary negociation, in order to see if
sonic amicable arrangement could take place, but
they would have been thought harsh and Un-
relenting towards THE QUEEN, if they had.
not attended to such requisition, and it was hardly
possible for them to suppose that those very prisons
would turn against them, and imptite their tor-
bearance to a consciousness that they did not
possess sufficient evidence to justify their pro-
ceedings against her MAJESTY. But supposing
that these Glee') Begs had been removed without
examination, what course could then have been
pursued I Could the People be called on to make
a vast provision, in these hard times, for- a
Person charged with such offences that the bare
statement of them was likely to be injurious to
the morals of the country, and who, to obtain
such a provision, voluntatily assented to a sacrifice
of her character ? Ministers never could have had
the hardihood to come forward with any such
demand in her favour. The more offen-
sive the contents of the Green Bags, the'
stronger must the charges be deemed, and therefore
Use more necessary to be examined, in order to
forward the ends of justice. There is no necessity
for the Secret Committee to present " a mass of
pollution," as The Morning Chronicle styled the
Bags, or " nauseous fabrications," as they
were impudently and libellously termed by The
Times, though neither of them could pos-
sibly know the contents of the Bags.—
It would •be sufficient for the. Committee to
give the Heads of the Charges to the Public,
with their judgment on their :weight and vali-
dity. As to their being " fabrications," as styled.
by The Times, that is a charge upon the Go-
vernment and the Sovereign, which ought not,
lightly to be passed over. It is horrible to accuse
some of the wisest and most honourable men
in the Empire of the invention of false accusations
in order to injure an unprotected woman,
and to deprive of her lawful rights and ho-
nours the Partner of the Throne ; and what is
still more atrociously calumnious in the idea, it is to
charge the Sovereign himself with having given hi-,
sanction to such " nauseous fabrications," to re-
peat the words of the Times, which never should
be forgotten, if not properly punished. But the
mid) will now be brought to light, and the Na-
tion, we trust, will soon be released from the eta-
moors of Faction and the tumults of the Rabble.
Let us presume innocence till guilt shall be made
evident ; but let us not forget another maxim in
our Jurisprudence, viz. that " the Law is no re- •
specter of Persons," and that those who ought,
by their station in society, to set an example to
their inferiors, are less entitled to lenity than
the latter, who are not indebted to the Coun-
try for advantages, which ought, to induce
them by their conduct to hold forth a model., of
purity, and of every virtue that can give groce and
dignity to the national character.

The British Press of this day, the only legiti-
mate Opposition Paper of the Old School, says,
" that if such stories are abroad as are really
contained in the Green Bag, their preseuce ought,
with every well regulated mind, to cast a great
discredit and suspicion over the whole IlifISS sub-
mitted to the Secret Committee." And why
should not the British Press give Ministers credit
for feeling the same distrust and delicacy, and
ascribe the same feelings and impressions to the
Select Committee ?

The Qosari, as we stated yesterday, has relin•
finished the imprudent idea of visiting the Theatre
in the present critical, and indeed awful situation
of her affairs. It is astonishing that such an idea
should have occurred to her. If she had perse,
vcred iu her first intention, it would, of course,

have been expected that she should visit all the
Minor Theatres in town, and conclude at Vaux-
hall, as a treat for the populace. But what is a
matter of interesting reflection, the comparatively
scanty audietace which attended, when a crowded
house was naturally expected, chews that the
shouts of the mob, or the effervescence of Party,
are by no means tests of Poscto OPINION, but
that the sober judgment of THE PeoPLE at large
is only to be affected by fair investigation, and
irrefragable evidence of innocence or guilt.

The Morning Chronicle of this day says, that
" Lord LIVERPOOL on Tuesday night felt the
severity of Lord GREY'S animadversions." such
an observation can only indicate the blindness of
Party. Lord GREY'S speech was marked by
nothing but that common censure against Minis-
ters, which loses its effect i❑ being so hackneyed
in style, and so obvious in import. The reverse was
the fact, and Lord GREY evidently writhed under
Lord LIVERPOOL'S animadversions, when conscious
of the rectitude of his conduct, end roused by the
asperity of his opponent, he alluded to " the
conduct and measores of the Noble Lords; who,
Oldie.% office bad ruined and degraded the Coun-
try, and by their counsels led it to a state
which would have proved destructive, had it not
escaped such imminent danger by a happy change
in the Government of the Country." A change,
it may be jusly added, which gave security to the
Country, and deliverance to all Europe.

ROMAN CATHOLICS.-..-We refer our Readers to
an article, taken from The Hibernian Journal of
the 21st instant, relative to the Dublin Election,
in order that the Protestants may judge what sub-
mission, justice, and Christian Charity may be
expected from the Pavisrs, if they should ever be
permitted to share in the Legislative Counsels of
the British Empire ! ! I

Madras Papers to the 6th of February have
been received. It appears from them, that another
Pretender to the Throne of Candy had started up
in the beginning of January. He was able, how-
ever, to muster not more than 50 followers ; and
lie fell into the hands of Government, a few days
after the commencement of his regal career.
These Papers, also, contain further particulars of
the defeat of the Dutch Expedition against Pa-
lembang. 'Disturbances bad broken out at Banca,
where the natives put the Dutch Resident to death,
and sent his head to the Sultan of Palembang.
The Dutch settlements on the Malacca coast were
also in a state of insturection.

The accounts of the Duchess of Yoax yester•
day were, that her Royal Highness was continu•
lug better.

Doctor Palm and a large party dined with her
MAJR3TY, at her residence in Portman-street,
ye3terday, at two o'clock, Which early hour for
dining is her MaJosTy's usual custom.

The LoRD MAYOR has granted a Common Hall
for Friday next, upon the propriety ut addressing
the Queen.

Mrs.•BRAHAM gave a very elegant treat to ber
friends on Monday evening, on the intended
Christening of.her last child. The Duke of SUSSEX
was to have honoured the occasion in standing as
Sponsor, but the recent accident which befel his
Royal Highness prevented him from being pre-
sent, a►►d he would not act by proxy. The
Christening was therefore deferred, but the com-
pany invi►ed were gratified by some admirable
Vocal Music by Bean AM, Signora Costa and her
sister, Miss CAREW, Miss STEPHEN!, and Mrs.
Dic&orts. A sumptuous supper was prepared,
and dancing prevailed till a very late period in the
morning.

ARGYLE Rooms.—The private Subscription
Concert for Mr. NALDI took place in these Rooms
last night. It consisted of two dramatic pieces.
The first part was the first act of the celebrated
Opera Cosi fan tutu. In this piece NALDI, his
daughter, Mr,VERCELLINI, and Mr. CONSUL, sung
very well, and displayed considerable skill in act-
ing, particularly NALDI and Miss NALDI. The
two Misses AsnE, Who, we understand, came pur-
posely from Bath to assist on the occasion, made
their first dramatic appearance, and the desire of
pleasing subdued in a great degree the etnbar•ras-
ment natural to so novel a situation, end they
sung and acted with simplicity and effect. The
second act was a French piece, entitle:l Le Bouffe
et le Thilleur. It was well supported by NALot,
Miss NALDI, and Mr. PERLP.T., and was much ap-
plauded. The Room was full of elegant company.
DEATH OF THE B:8110P OF BRISTOL.-Tbe Bi-
shop of 13tistol, Dr. MANSELL, died at Trinity
Lodge, Cambridge, on Tuesday morning, at five
o'clock. his Lordship owed his elevation in the
Church to the patronage of his fellow-collegian,
the late Mr. I'erceval, who, when Chancellor of
the Dochy of Lancaster, presented hint to a living
in the North, valoe 2,0001. per annum, and after-
wards promoted hint to the see of Bristol, and
the distit►g';ished Headship of College,
Cambridge. Dr. Wordsworth, Chaplain to the
Archbishop of Canterbury, is spoken of as the
probable successor to the Mastership of Trinity,
which is in the gift of the Crown.

With feelings peculiarly gratifying we learn that
the Marquess of 6TaFroa in cc►useyuence of the
great depression of trade in the Statfuldshire Pot-
teries, has given directions to reduce the price of
his coals in that district very considerably ; and
what readers it still more interesting and praise-
worthy is, that has given directions that no
reduction shall take place in the colliers' wages,
even it wished for by Others, without Lis consent
and approbation.—(Chester Courant.)
