In a preceding column we announced the Victory
tr. the Quisn. As we wish to present the whole
proceedings in oar columns this day, we here resume
t! e Report of the Debate which we interrupted in
girder to announce the glorious result of this. me-

rnentouc enquiry:
The 131;hop of CIit:STRR rose to state, that he had voted
for the second reading of the Bill upon the full conviction that
hn Majesty was guilty of the crime imputed to her, which had
teen linseed by circumstantial evidence of the strongest nature.
i‘rtainly else evidence had been no more than circumstantial,
lint if the Queen was innocent, her innocence was accompanied
with such corroborants of guilt as never had been heard of in the
annals of history. It was from a moral view of the question
thafhe was induced to vote for the second reading.of the Bill,
but it would be recollected that he had decidedly given Ins
orinimi and his vote against the Divorce Clause. This le
had done because he considered that clause contrary to all es.;
tiblished usages, and opposed to the divorce precept. He at
he name time thought himself bound to repel the insinuation
made by Neble Lords on the opposite side, that those who had
votod for the Bill and objected to the Divorce Clause, were sets*.

Earl GROSVKNOR said it was impossible not to trespass
%inn their Lordships to take notice of what had (elite from, the
Learned Prelate. If he recollected right, be had stated what
was supposed to have passed between his Majesty and his AB-
nhaersthat there had been rumours, which were fottered by
,Illieistera, that the King had been the main cause of the agitation
Of the question, and that his Majesty had proposedthe omission of
the Queen's name in the Liturgy himself. He (Lord, G.) bad dis-
tinctly stated, that such rumours tended to throw odium and con-
tempt upon the Crown, and were in every respect wicked and
injurious; and lie admitted, that he had declared, that 'if he
were in the place of an Archbishop of Canterbury, to Whom
such a proposition Was made, he should not hesitate to throw.

ssureci their Lordships that he should give his vote as consciens
tiously "as any of their Lordships, having suffered no bias
to interfere with the conclusion arising from his examination of
the evidence. His vote should be against the Bilk as a measure
injurious to all parties, as well as to the best interests et the
nation.
• The Bishop of GLOUCESTER said, he bad determined to
'vote for the third reading of the Bill, providedit was unaccom-
paried by the Divorce Clause, which he considered to be incon-
sistent with the general tenon; of the Christian Religion, and
inconsistent with the Standing Orders of the House, which
Were- foun,:ed upon the principles of impartial justice. The
House not having separated that most objectionable Clause
from the Bill, he was compelled, by his conscientious- feelings; to
vote against the third reading of the BiU—(Lend cries of hear).r
He regretted to be obliged to oppose many of those•with whom
be usually voted; but he was convinced that consistency of con-.
duct wic the best security against misripresentation—(llser.)

Lord A LVANLEY spoke a few words against the Bill. Ho
declared that he had not beard anything from Counsel at the
Bar, which deserved the character given of their conduct by
the Learned Prelate.

Lord DARNLEY could not let the question go to their Lord-
ships, without appealing to those who had before wavered in their
opinions as to the guilt of her Majesty, to stand between Minis-
ters and ruin! The mass of the CoMmons of England would,
he was convinced, resist, with all their force, this. iniquitous
Bill, and other nations would view the conduct of the Tipper
House of Parliament with the deepest contempt.
Here there were loud cries of " Quelitiessr—Strangers were
then ordered to withdraw.

At twenty minutes past one o'clock the House divided on the
question, that this Bill be now read a third time :

Majority for the Third Reading

On the question beingput, that the Bill do now pass,

The Earl of LIVERPOOL rose, and said, eonvinced as he
was of the necessity of this inquiry, and of the guilt of her Ma-
jesty, yet, persuaded at the same time of the difficulty of im-
pressing his conviction on the public mind, he felt it to be his
duty to more that the farther cossideration of this Bill be
deferred to this dare' months. .At the same time he must
say, that if there had Wen the same majority as on the second
reading of the Bill, he would have felt it his duty to have pressed
the meant*.

Earl GREY animadverted its strong terms on the conduct of
Ministers, who abindone4 the Bill after they had dragged the
House through this long and painful enquiry. -
The House then adjourned to the tad Instant, on which day
the House of Commons meet agreeable to the last adjournment.

PROTESTATION. DE S. A.S. LE DUC D'ORLEANS:
His Serene Highness the. Dube of Qatearts declares by these.
preselnii,• that he protest,-by all manlier of right, against the
prosesperbal, dated the 29th September; 1820, which purports
to establish that the infant, named Hasa! CHARM'S FERDINAND
Mama Macular& is the natural and-legitimate son of her-Royal
Highness Madame the Duchess of &ear. •
The Duke of- Dawns win produce, at the proper time and

mother of the said infant, lie will .exhibit all the necrmary
proofs itintake It niinirest that the Duchess of Baser was serer
enciente after the- ilitirapiy death of her husband; and he will
point out the authors-Of the machinations of which this very
feeble Prineees'wyrthe instrurnelif.
Until the favottrableshotnent shall arrive to make such a dis-
closure, the Duke of- Oat.xass cannot avoid calling attention to
the fantastic scene which the above proms verbal Mates to have
been 'exhibited at the l'avition de Marsan. . •
The Awn* de Refer, which all the world knows to be a cod-
' !Wendel Journal, announced, on the 20th of August list,. the
*ocosidliessent in the following ternls :••••41 Persons who have the

• The Simeon, BOUDON, declarers, that the infant was placed on

' These two medical practitioners are aware how impertant it

entering, I saw the infant en the 44 not yet detached from its-
mother." . '
. Thus, the infant was lying en the bed, the 'Duchess in the bed,.
and the umbilical cord introduced under the coverlet of the bed.
Remark Whit brae observed by the Sieur Dontex, the access-
chew., who at half-past rwo was infornked that the Duchess feit
the pains of child-birth, who ran tot the instant, without taking
time to dress himself wholly; to the apartment of the Princess,
.whom he found in her bed, and he heard the child cry.
• Remark what Madame. de Goueanb says, whe,,at half after
tWo, was apprised that the Duchess felt the pains of child-birth,
who went immediately and heard the first cry of the child.
Remark what was seen by the Sieur Faanors, the Garde de
Corps of MONSIEUR, who was on duty at the door of her Royal
Highness, who was the first person Informed of the event by a
Lady who desired him to enter..
. Remark what was seen by the Sieur Lame, Garile Nation',
who
.was on duty at the gate of the Pavilion de Marsan, who
was deiired by a Lady to ascend, and who instantly went t;p,
. and was introduced to the chamber of the Pt incess, where there
was only the Sieur DONKIJI, and another person of the house-
' hold, and who, at the moment when he entered, observed that
the dock-was at two hours thirty-five minutes.
' Remark what was seen by the Physician BARON, who arrived
at thirty-five minutes past Vivo,, and by the Surgeon BODDON,
who arrived some instants after the Sieur %Ito%
Remark what was seen by Marshal Svelter, who was lodged,
by order of the Kum, at the Pavilion de Fiore, who, at the fern
notice which was given to him of the pains felt by her Royal
Highness, hastened- to proceed to her apartment, but who did
not arrive till forty-five minutes past two, and who was called
upon to notice the cutting of the umbilical cord some minutes
teterwards.
Remark what should have been seen by Marshal de COIGNE,
who lodged, by order of the Kine, in the Thuilleries, who was
called when her Royal Highness was delitiered, who hastened to
proceed to her apartment, but who did not-arrive till the mo-
ment when the cutting of the umbilical cord had taken place.
Remark, lastly, what was seen braH the persons who were
hitroduced after half-past two, until the monteat of cutting the,
umbilical cord, which took dace some statutes subsequent to
isely-fite minuses past two.
But where then were the relations of the Princess during this
Hoene, which lasted at least 20 minutes? ' Why, during so long
a space of time, did. they affect to abandon her to the bands of
strangers—to those cf sentinels, and of military of all ranks? k
not this affectation of abandonment precisely the most complete
proof of a manifest and gross fraud ? Is it not evident, that I
after having arranged the piece, they withdrew at hay-past two,'
and that, placed in an adjoining apartment, they waited the,
moment for themselves entering on the scene, and playing the
characters which were assigned to them? For hi the uight,l
even when a female, of whatever class of society, it may be sup-.
posed, would be attended upon at the critical period-of child-
birt4, was it ever seen that the lights were extinguished—that
the female attendants were asleep—that she who was specially
Airged to take care of her was at a distance—that her necoucheur
was undressed—and that her family, Who resided under the same

twenty intrudes without giving the jaxst sign of presence or of
