Mr 1,00,.—le these eventful times, when your
as a British Peer, has chosen to step for-
M sanction a mode of proceeding against your

waded stactioa to the anomalous charges exhi-
oof
6,A whist her Majesty, containing, amongst other
awe, that of having hired a servant who had been
owl, is a for station, it may not be thought ins-
ediaos to avert to your Lordship's newly acquiredl
Mk-
law. then, that your Lordship's family had the
lowest to be of the class of the Commoners of this
gem seal your Moistness father, fr his high
bpi sceptirenseate, I presume, was elevated to the dig-
it/ of a Law Bann, by patent, conveying his title to
cis lawfa heir, by virtue of which, your Lordship is
htitkd * a seat In the House of Peers.
!kik". also, that notwithstanding your Lordship's
* kid a salary of only 4,500/. a-year as Chief
jade., ke had the good fortune, by means of -the ap-
rada fns attacked to his office, to realise somewhere
suet MANN. during the last twenty years.

throbs.% that your Lordship may, by
Isrt, command leisure sufficient to read
joker, I have ventured to address you, just to put
the felleasg queries :
&gist any twelve or fourteen persons, had it La
cossimpla ea to drive the King from his throne, and
it that pages. conspired together, and agreed to
appoint an agent to mace an offer of a larger revenue
tens Meersty than is at present allowed by Parli-
seat, to induce him to renounce the Crown; and at the
time time to threaten his Majesty, that if he did not
amply with their offer, that they would imitating a
alum ni prOsetution against him for adultery, as
king in itself a crime, which "deeply affects the honour
et the King and the dignity of the Crown," would
set such a aniepleacy, consummated by the actual
snout of such costliness, amount to an overt act of
treason?
If suck coadact woad be an overt net of treason,
will yore Lordship have the condescension to explain,
what differeace isi hew, or in reason, exists between
sash a bribe sad threat tendered to the King or to
the Queer, whose issue is heir appareat to the Throne,
knowing as your lordship must know, that the law
masa make soy reference in this decision to the pro-
bability of her Majesty having any future issue ?
