Yeaterd.tv a Mertinz of the Hou.eholders of this
Parith was held at the lianneh of Yeniton Yard, Ha-

M!. Honnotfse, on being called to the Chair, said
t ts he shoal,' ever feel happy on being called on by
y portion of his constituents, to stand forward on
4.1 public occasion. To do so was not merely the
sold performance of his duty, but the gratification of
h's hest feeling. The soost unobs d must now see
t' at the proceeding in the House of Lords was no lon-
g-r the trial elate Queen, it was the trial of his Ma-
jesty's Ministers. On looking at that proceeding from
the beginning to the end, it might be seen that the
erernies of her Majesty had not succeeded in fixing
an) stain upon her character, though they certainly
I ti placed ituleiiitle blots upon their own.—(Applause.)
The people of England, naturally interested on behalf
cf the injured and oppressed, dewed the utmost synk-
why for the sufferings of the Queen ; not because
• was a Queen, but because she was a woman—be-
t al‘e she was marked out as the intended object of Op-
prossioo. The case, in fact, was not the case of the
tzveer—it was the case of the people; were they tame-
to submit to see her rights trampled under the
1 o ifs olfaction, they might soon apprehend the for-
t •i!ure of their own. He should like to ask the Noble
I urds and the Hon. Gentlemen who were concerned in
t is monstrous prosecution, what would they think,
1.-w would they feel, if a sister, or other relative of
t: errs, Was assailed as the Queen had been assailed ?
• ~old 'y nut express their horror and detestation ?
r otild they not protest against a proceeding so mon-
strous, so cruel and illegal ? "(he conduct of Ministers
trvards the Queen was not to he easily described.—
Every thing.harsh, insulting, and cruel was said anti
t'•tne against her; but it was clear from the proceed-
irgs of the last few days, that the enemies of her Ma-
.; •sty were floundering in a quagmire, which instead
t•' spattering dirt on others only befouled themselves.
l!c thotight their case desperate; they had but a kirk
or two to give before they would expire.—(A laugh.)
—The Ilinsourable Uentlemau concluded amid 'nth*.
Si; :tie applause.
Mr. PETRA Moons stood forward to more the Re-
st.:Ations ; he was received with great applause. He
(.97:grata:tiled the meeting on the full attendance, and
.:,ed the people would always meet when the coon-
r:y was assailed, when the oppressor was to be braids]
ed. and the innocent protected. The question now watts
✓ ! whether the Queen was guilty —that questioa
01, put to rest—her innocence was manifest to the
..,rll—Ant the question was, what was the extent of
t' .• guilt of Ministers? It was not easy to fathom
ti r deptlr.of their crimes, but still the country would
du its Att. The conspiracy against her Majesty
was of the Most base and nefarious kind, and the
blinistere were at the bottom of it; who else could
lave bfeh? 'none but their creatures, the Ministers
and they only were answerable for it. The coun-
try War! Lund to fathom the business to the bottom,
and so they would. Legal cunning might exhaust its

man could have the effrontery to say, that the Bill

able Getftleman, after paying a warm tribute to the
itdependent press of the country, which he said had
achieved the safety of tier Majesty, which was the
a valmon shield of all, without which the liberties and
rights of the -people would perish, concluded by oh-
guying on the speech of Mr. Courtenay in the House of
Commons on Tuesday last. That Oentleman stated,
that the tide was turning against her Majesty; there
would beno more Addresses presented to her Majesty
from the people of England. What was that but say-
ing that he would vote to Aod the Queen guilty, if her
case should be brought before him ? He hoped, that
the people throughout the country would call, on all
occasions, on their representatives to attend. public
meetings, it nits a.daty they owed to their Constituents
to attend to support them if in the right, or if wrong
to point out their error.—(Cheers.)—Mr. Moore read
a string of Resolutions which were carried unani-
inonsly.
An -Address to her Mojestr, founded on those Reso-
lotion, was egad by Mr. Thornhill, anti adopted.
A vote of thanks to the Chairman was then agreed to.
Mr. Hoinousa returned thanks, and the Meeting
was dissolved.

honest, loyal, and affectionate address.
" The faction which is so strenuously labouring, un-
der the show of a judicial proceeding, to deprive me of
my rights, is the same which has, for many years, been
making such monstrous inroads upon the people's li-
berties. With that faction the most interesting ques-
tion is, not whether the Queen is innocent or guilty ;
but whether they shall attain their usurped domination.
They well know how to throw the cloak of morality or
religion over their sordid views; but with them even
the degradation of the Queen is a mere (petition of
place. They consider the Queen an obstacle in the
way of their selfishness; and (hey think that they never
can be secure, while she possesses what they can never
acquire—the affections of the people.

swayed the sceptre of Britain. If the riding family
should be desired to produce the title-decd of their
Royal rule, to what other document could they point,
Int the will of the people? In these days nb one
will dare to contend that the right to reign over mil-

asoferred.

cularly requisite in the present times, that the people
ohnohl have just, precise, and definite notions on this
subject. For arbitrary pourer will always 1w predomi-
nant, in proportion as the people are more imperfectly
1

their rulers."

FRIDAY *PINING, OCTOIMI 20, ISM.

On a witness having been asked yesterday, whether
SACCIII had given him any counsel, or made any ap-
plication to him respecting the process against the
QeclN, the inquiry was stopped, and there ensued a
long debate, which ended in a reference to the Judges,
" whether the Courts below, if, abet cress-ezansieatisse,
they discover that a witness has corrupted or endea.
roared to corrupt another person to give false
testimony, the Counsel fur the prosecution may
not be permitted to give evidence of such corrupt
proceeding, without calling back such witness." This
mousing, the Lotto CIIIRF Justice delivered the opi-
nine of himself and brethren, that no evidence could
be received contradictory of what had been previously
given, without that witness having been distinctly
examined to that particular point ; and if he Lad not
been so examined, then he should be called back.
Under all the circumstances of the case, therefore, the
Judges were of opinion, that the question teferred to
them could not be put. Ou this opinion having
been pronounced, an animated discussion arose among
their Lordships. It was contended, that the point in
question related to a matter of fact, the agency of an in-
videal, about which their Lordships were sufficiently
competent to decide without any reference to the prac-
tice of the Courts of Law ; and, after a warm debate, a
motion was made that the question in debate should
then be put ; when there appeared on a division,
