- _a The same complaint may he urged with respeeteven to the
first charge; for-although the liertioshir kind of offence is muffed
with sufficient distinctness to affect her Itarcarr's reputation in-
delibly, yet neither name nor circumstance Is addid which
might afford the accused a mean's of justification. It will here
be said, no doubt, *that this Report is not meant to be the Bill
of Indictment agahist her Disarm; and that, therefore, there
doted no necessity of specifying the charges distinctly. This,
however, is the very exception which we make to the entire Re.
port; for It either should not have entered at all into the nature
of the crimes charged, or it should have stated thetas with clear-
ness and accuracy."

FROM Till MORNING HERALD..
To those.who really weigh the Report of last night, there
will appear no real change in the position of the •Quesu ; and
this we say without the least disrespect to the Lords of the Com-
mittee. The adoption of a Secret Committee was justly con-
demned as contrary to the practice of:the Constitution, liable to
become a dangerous precedent, and injurious to the public repo-
team; of the House of Peers; but that its Report will have the
least influence towards prejudging the Queues case, we utterly
deny. What, beyond the mere character of the charges, has the
Oonnnktee had to decide upon ? What but the mere question,
Whether the alleged acts of criminality on the Quiest's part are
frivolous or serious, had the Committee to Report upon ? A
plaudislit statement, therefore, of grave charges is all that can
be presumed from the Report ; and this the Public must have
dandy prepared for, from the prudence of Ministers.
" .Next, is any Peer, not a responsible Minister, bound to
vote in the sense of this Report? And is not every such Peer
perfectly and consistently free to vote for the acquittal of the
Queue should the authors of the depositions fail to substantiate
them? The Committee,' by their Report, hive not added a
feather's weight to the opinion of the Queen's guilt or innocence.
The impartial Public should thee in this, as in all other cases of
pubic justice, keep their minds unprejudiced, and their judg-
ments suspended. That the QU Mt may successfully wade
through this revolting mass of asperity, must be the wish of
every honest individual in the kingdom."
PROM TOR NNW TIMES.
" It Is with great pain, that we announce the substance of the
Report presented yesterday by the Secret Committee of ,the
House of Lords. It states, that the Papers referred to the con-
sideration of the Committee, contain matter for ;he following
heavy charges against the Quint Of an adulterous comm.
don with a Foreigner. 2. Of most licentious conduct in other
respects.—This, it must be remembered, is still but matter of
large. Her Marine willhave the most ample opportunity to

alised to the humiliating necessity of repelling, accusations so
Ott it is now too late to repine at the fat:llEllwpm

has rejected a reasonable and considerate mediation ; and she
mist tits the consequences.

They do not take upon themselves to condemn her Meaner.
Their cautions and equimble proceeding gives the Me to all the
malicious suggestions, that they would act as an bershitorial
Tribunal, deciding on the question of guilt, without Mowing
mods of defence. On the contrary, they have nisedip decided
on the contents of the documents referred to them; and' they

left town to attend her Royal Highness, at Oatlands:
The following is the written Answer sent by her
NlA.rnari to the Address of the Borough of Southwark:
ig I cordially thank the Inhabitants of the a.lcient Town and
Doreugh of Southwark, for this loyal and affectionate expression
of their congratulations and issabo.ft ; for their anxious wad_
tulle for my comfort, menidlilty, and safety ; for the lively In;•
tercet they feel in everythhig -Wm my honour and dignity.;
fir their generous avowal, that le any canoe is invehtd that of
themselves, and of that Constitution wider which Royalty and
poplar freedom, entwined, have floarirbed for so many ages,

which ha Slaty which I owe to a Ample, whose attachment, to
me will ever remain 'spawn on my heart, andwho can know

- A report appears to isave been inauurroady circu-
lated that many ef the Qoarm's friends in the Higher
Circles of life have deserted her cause. We have made

enquiry, and.we have every reason to believe thatlhis
is not true: on the contrary, their exertions will be'
increased, in propoition to the pressure of her

DRURY-LANs THEATRI.--LaSt night, Mr. KEAN
appeared in the arduous character of King Lear. It
was a delightful sight to see this illustrious actor so
apparently recovered from the consequences of his late
accident.—The alteration of this master-piece of
SHAKSPLAILE, by TATt, which, with some omissions,
is chosen at Drury-Lane, is judicious is the catas-
trophe. The poor old King is restored to,his senses
and to his kingdom, and the death of Cordelia no
longer shocks the feelings of an audience, as in the
original. But the best speeches in the Play are some-
times invidiously curtailed by TATS, and other abrids-
- which we cantiot but deprecate, take place to
'the performiusce.• Thus, in the passage,
• • Wo--4isit net yet, nuly be he is not wen—

reinnetse ineoeurocy occurs, for there are Offices of
Asoniijgt ead.ring and salutary :nature "'petted

ie bound." We. must add, to the credit of the Ma.
ger, that tome parts of Edmond's igrigue with
ierill and ,Regax, are very judiciously omitted.
We are • treading on unpopular ground, whets we
to suggest a doubt of Mr. KEAN'S
y ; but we will. state our opinion and if he treats
it is " idle wind," we shall not be Offended. Messrs.
WORDSWORTH and other modern Poets, in pretend-
ing to imitate the simplicity of nature, have subjected
themselves to the charge of vulgarity; we Wish to
rt::-I
d Mr. KEAN against a similar failure. He too
descends to_ the low familiar tone of voice,
which to us sometimes appears almost ludicrous.—
We will. useatios •oneinstar.ce only. When he has •
said, in a most energetic manner,
Why, berets old Kent and I, as tooth a pair
• “As e'er here Fortune's blinesi" . •
adds in the tone, which we wish him to consider
seriously with his usual accuracy of judgment:
But far Cordelia,
" My poor Cordelia here—O, pity her r
pad we not sincerely admire his transcendent merit
tut& wonderful talents; we should net be so minute
in observing•_what we consider as spots on the Sun ;
but we wish that Sun to shine in the full blaze of his
innate splendour.
• Exictrrion.—Sir more Unfortunate individuals
paid, this morning, the forfeit of their lives to the
Offended laws of their country. Three of them were
victims to that facility of forging the notes of the
Bank of England, which has of late years added so
enormously to the list of our capital punishments.
Their names were William Heni:y Stanford, William
Paky, and John Rohinson, all convicted of uttering
forged notes of the Bank of England. The other
sufferers were, Henry Hawkins, for a robbery in the
house of Mr. Daryl, stationer, hi Portugal-street, at-
tended. frith circumstances of peculiar atrocity; IVA
Hew Arnold, a soldier, for a highway robbery ; and,
William Saida", for horse.stealing. They were ill
good-looking men, and met their unhappy fate with
fortittide and resignation. After they had joined fer-
vently in prayer with- the Rev. Mr. Carropr, the Or-
dinary of Newgate, the fatal signal was given, and
they were launched into eternity. A Gentleman who
'was on the scaffold, and appeared to be a friend of
one of the prisoners, will so deeply affected that he
was obliged to be supported, to prevent him from
falling. The.assemblage of spectators was immense-
