we believe a more persecuted person has not stood at
the bar of national justice since the trial (if pre-deteN
mined condemnation deserves that name) of the hapless
MART QUERY of Score. The established forms of
civil jurisprudent* can never be dispensed with with-
out exciting suspicion, and without injury to truth and
justice. We trust that the character of our national
practice, in the strict adherence to our established
code and in the administration of what is duo to all
parties, high or low, will not be departed from in
the case of the Qusatt ; but in the Meantime all
public feeling is shocked at the mode in which the
guilt and punishment of the Illustrious Female, who
has thrown herself on the protection of British laws,
are anticipated by the Bill brought in against her,
and the proceedings adopted to establish that pro-
posed enactment. If Ministers shall succeed la than
subverting the safeguards of British law, and in esta-
blishing a mode of procedure of their own, whereby to

We earnestly trust that the country will express its
abhorrence of the cruel and unptecedentesiplun of sub-
teeter and ciicanery now bad mower b. ter the
purpose of completing the degradation and ruin of a
noble-minded but helpless women. Whst eau be more
oppressive and unjust—what can be swore manifestly
dangerous as an example, receiving the sanction of an
enlightened Legislature, than to condemn a woman by
a Bill on e: parse evidence, and actually without either
trial or conviction. Humanity, shudders at the esta-
blithumet of such a system of jurisprudence. We re-
joice to hear that arrangements are malting for another
meeting of the City of Leaden, to express its disappro-
bation of such proceedings ; and that it is likely a
Middlesex meeting will *fedi!), be held, to consider
the propriety of presenting' petition and remonstraace •
against the procedure of ilia Haase of Lords, in regard
to the Qcsaes.
