THE LONDOA JOURNALS.

[DAILY ExDuel's FitOM TilE MORNING PAPERS]

[Morning Post.]
TIrE LAMENTABLE Ellllon.—The ever to be
deplored mistake of separating policy from jus-
tice, and of voting upon expediency, not upon
evidence, is every 'day painfully esposed by its
consequences. It was, we all know, supposed
by the .Peers_ who held the Queen guilty, and yet
voted against the Ilia of Pains and Peealties,
that by sappl'essing the prosecution they should
restore the kingdoni to the tranquillity of
which the late Acts against Seditious Mete !e:e
had given it a short taste. We fear t!.: ,it
will be our duty for Many ensuing Weel:-, if
not Month 4, t(?retforti the poOst Fetious practical
illustration of this unfortunate error. flail the
Bill been passed, there wouhl haVe been instantly
some opt;roach to a return oT decenet% I) arin
the last three weeks of the investigation, the
shameless effrontery of the -clamourers about a
pretended.conspiroty against innocence, had evi•
dentiy began to fail. They could not but Ser:
that the most, reseectable part of the Qtteee"S
own Witnesses had not only placed the question
beyond all ccmsidecations of that sort, but bud
actually established her 'Majesty's guilt. -.They
knew that the Countess Oldi and the score of
other witnesses crillected in and near Brenden-
burgh. House, were plainly. withheld, because
their cross-examination would go, if possible,
still more -strongly -to prove the guilt of tbe
accused, than that of the persons who had
already admitted so many- of the conclusive
and damning facts.' • They heard the most
decisive opinion. of the Queen's criminal con-
duCt, delivered even by many of the Peers
who voted against the Bill. These _things were
not necessary to inlluenCe the renl , opinion of the
factious clamourers, for that was never what they
pretended it to be; but they produced a mate-
rial effect upon their conduct, inasmuch as the
seditious braWlers• found the neutral part of
the community beginning to be intelligent and
capable of answering them readily upon every
point. They were, in fact, fully expectant that
the Bill would pass, and tey bad succumbed to
it as a matter of necessity. Alt that really
remained then to be estimated by the eaten-
latiLlos of expediency was the probability of some
few stormy-speeches in the House of Commons.
After these should have been heard, or at least
after a dozen or score speakers should have been
heard three or four times each, the question would
have been settled in a way consistent with the
permanent tranquillity of the country. Is it so
settled now ?—Are we not rather about to wit-
ness the reiteration, the republication, and the
reassertion of all that criminal and filthy stuff, in
the shape of Congratulation, .which had become
ineffectual and tiresome in the monstrous shape
of acquitting addresses ? The meetings are to be
held over au-ain--Lthe processions are to repro-
ceed—the factious are .to exhibit their disgust-
heir roulatfivr---401 i pie face of the clearest
conv t, to g
daringly to be thrown in the teeth of the virtuous
and well affected, while new claims and preten-
sions are every day to he urged in behalf of the
new Court.. We know that the present intention is
Itot to keep the Parliament sitting after a com-
munication is made to it on its meeting next
week; but we beg most seriously to suggest, that
daring a state-of such mischievous exultation (and
it is now only at its commencement), the Session
ought not to be terminated. It is hard, we
allow, that Members should be thus kept from
their homes ; but it would be harder, if their
homeS and those of others were to be rendered
vntenahle by mobs, or if safety were to be pur-
chased only by a compliance with the views of
mob leaders.

[Morning Chronklel
Four Protests have already-been entered on
the Journals of the House of Lords against the
First Lord of the Treasury and his Colleagues,
for withdrawing the Bill of Pains and Penalties !
A, more curious exhibition of a distracted, con-
fused, and discomfited Government was never
made, and such is the state of the Administra-
tion to which the affairs of the United Kingdom
are entrusted! The Prime Minster, from a deep
sense of the independent feeling of the House of
Lords, and of the universal sense of the country,
'thought it his duty to withdraw the Bill. In
vain had he, and seven other Members of the
C4binet, assisted by the Bishops, voted for the
third reading of _ the Bill, Divorce Clause and
all'.,—The Bill resting on such.a. feeble basis
could not stand and he prudently acknowledged
himself beaten. But his own adherents now turn
round on him„ and protest against his conduct.
We have often seen Members of a dissentient mi-
nority protest against the resolution of a majority,
but here we have assenting Members of a majo,
rity protesting against the act of that majority !
This completes the anomaly that marks the whole
of the proceedings on this abhorrent Bill. We
should not have wondered that.the Bishops 'should
.in private complain of the treatment they had
received, in being called upon to vote poli-
tically for the Divorce Clause, after they had, in
discharge of their spiritual duty, voted against it.

[Morning Berald.]

The approaching Session of Parliament promises
to be one of keen discussion. It is again said to
be the intention of his Majesty's. Ministers to
prorogue Parliament, as we stated a few days since,
during the adjournment, but to have changed their
minds in consequence. of a suggestion of irregu-
larity from the Speaker; This we can hardly be-
lieve, considering the many instances of such
prorog-ations and . dissolutions in the history of
t'arliarnent. One of the first objects before the
House will be the expences of the late pro-
ceeding. It is also generally supposed that an
arrangement of the differences in the Royal Fa-
tuity, as the late inquiry has been called, will
come again before the Lords and Commons in a.
different shape, and from a different quarter.—

The rumours of a partial change of Ministry still
continue. Mr. Canning is, we understand-, on hie..
way home from Paris.
•

[British Press.] '
Attlitnswer has at Jength been sent to the.let-
ter addressed by Mr. K e ppel Craven, thrtrueign's
Vice-Chamberlain, at her Majesty' command,.
to the li,..'irl of Liverpool, demand g from the
Government a residence and an establishment
suitable to her rank. Lord LiVerpool informs
he Majesty that be has connnenicated her de-
mands to the King, and that his Majesty has not
as yet expressed his determination U pon the sub-
ject. llis Lordship pleads his absence from Lon-
don as an excuse for his delay in answering her
Majesty's letter.

[7l 'e Ledger.]
'Ministers, it is said, have not yet come to tiny
decision as to the _Mode in which the important •
question relative to the Queen shall be finally'
disposed of. A majority of them, it is rumour,'
ell, are in favour of the course suggested by Lord
Ellenborough, of passing a rdarlied censure upon
her Mdjesty, in the form of a joint Resolution
or Drclaration of the two Houses, to be followed
IT by an Address to the Crown. But to this ex-
petsiettt, we understand, Lords Liverpool- and
ilarrowby, have expressed their determined op-
position, accompanied with a threat of their int-
! mediate 'resignation should it be persisted in.
The highest influence is said to - have'beea, used
to induce their Lordships to acquiesce in the
sentiments of their Colleagues, but without effect.
Under these circattnstanceS, it is supposed that
the rest of the Ministers, conscious of • their own
nothinp,liess without the support of the Noble
Lords alluded to, 'till( renounce their favourite
project of a Vote of Censure. Should a recon-
ciliation be thus effeetedamong the discordant
Members of Administration, the general opinion
in the political circles is, that an attemPt will be
made to prevent any inquiry, for the present,
into their conduct respecting her Majesty,
by
proroguing Parliament, on the before it can
proceed to business.

[New Times.]
It is now very generally understood that Par-
liament is to meet on the 23d instant only for the
purpose of being prorogued ; and to• assemble
again for the dispatch of business about the mid-
dle or latter end of January. Meanwhile it is
absolutely essential to the national morals, that
some mode should be taken to put on solemn re-
cord the opinion entertained by the great majo-
rity of the Peerage relative to the guilt of theQucen.
Time should not be lost in this respect, otherwise
women of character may in the interval be io-
dated unwarily to sanction by their countenance
a conduct, which they never can approve, if
brought distinctly and authoritatively to their
notice.

conceising it to be in his power to give most im-
portant testimony in favour of her Majesty, but
for a long time without effect. He, however,
yesterday obtained his passports, and set out
with the least possible delay for that coun-
try, but it is feared that he cannot possibly
arrive in time to render any service to her
Majesty. He has never failed to repeat, in
all societies, his estimation of the character of the'
Queen of England, which has probably been one
cause of the difficulty he
/experienced iu procur-
ing passports. A proof of his attachment to her
Majesty, occurred during her residence at Pe-
saro, where, hearing of a sudden indisposition
with which she was -seized, he volunteered a
journey of 15 hours, in the hope of rendering her
service. Signor Rastri, another Professor of Mo-
dicine, of this place, who was anxious to proceed
to England for a similar purpose, has still, we
understand, that purpose having been avowed,
been unable to procure any passport."
