TO LORD JOHN RUSSELL.

•My Loso,—On taking up The Ti.nes newspaper of
this morning, n.y attention was arrested by your
Lordship's name to a letter addressed to Mr. iVilber-
Ince, wale!' was ace,onpaniel by a form of a Petition
u his Majesty on time subject of the proceedings now,
pending against his Majesty's Royal Consort, queen
Caroline ; in which letter your Lordship states, that
you have adopted this 'nude of conveying your opinion
on this important subject. It certainly does appear to
me, by the manner in which you express the word re,l
that it is intended by your Lordship to be indirectly re-
commended by you to be adopted by your countrymen;
it is mm that account I thus address your Lordship.
I beg leave to assure your Lordship, that in taking'
up my pen to eounnent on those two extraordinary do-
consents, I am not actuated by any feelings of disre-
spect towards you ; but on the contrary, I am eon-
scions that your Lordship's name is deservedly held
high iu the estimation of a considerable portion
of well-informed men, and it is for that reason I fear
any misconception or error in judgmer.t which your
Lordship way have fallen into in framing those singu-
lar productions, (if not set right, sir more fully ex-
plained), will, with the high sanction of your Lord-
ship's n use, be the means of causing supeeticial read-
ers to art upon and follow your Lordship's example,'
in admitting• the degradation of the country and i•
forwanling such an Address to his Majesty as your
have lain betnre them, and which, I have Au hesita-
tion in saying, is calculated to do wore mischief to
the cause it professes to support than all the malignant
'lan ler that has been sent forth to the world by her
Majesty's accusers and enemies, by means of the vi-
cious, degraded, and contemptible part of time press.
I shall, therefor'. first examine yonr Lordship's letter
to Mr. Wilberforce, and then its accompaniment„
makin.; such remarks as may occur to use, on the pro-
bable rife. t that each is likely to have on the public
',dud, and the consequences that may Ise produced ;
and, as an Englishman, to guard my fellow-subjects
against acquiesciug in the one or of adopting the
other.
I must confess, my Lord, that I feel myself in no
inconsiderable difficulty in the task I have undertake'',
and in particular, to make rip my mind in what man-
ner to treat your Lordship's letter. and for this plain
reason, be..atuse I can scarcely briug myself to think
yon can be serious in your declarations therein con-
taine I ; hot as your lordship's name is 'Axed to it, I
am b rind to take for granted you are so, hut I cannot
help still expressing nay surprise and astonishment,
that a man of your Lordship's understanding and ex-
panded mind, that a Son of Ike Hones gif Russell could
seriously come forward in the face of this enlightened
Nation, and say even now, that tlittete of this este great
and free country is subject to the controlsl of any indivi-
dual, however exalted his rank, (nisch less a Member
for a rotten Borough,) without blushing for the insult
offered to every Englishman that possesses any re-
suoins of the blood of his forefathers. (lad forbid, that
it is, or ever should be the case ; and could I believe
that such a thing were possible, I assure you I should
dy from it with disgust, as a country not wu:th saving.
I sum led to believe, when your Lordship committed
these declaratives to writing, your Lordship must
have acted under the iuduence of a disturbed mind
at the degraded state to which the ll'higs have re-
duced themselves, and which degradation your Lord-
ship must feel most sorely ; but had your Lordship
been a little more composed under this aMiction, you
would have been enabled, I am convinced, to have
traced the cause of this debasement of all the talents,
(for your Lordship admits that, that this is the case,
that the Whigs are not only debased, bat that they have
no power whatever) to a more substantial reason, than
simply to a powerful ministerial majority ; for jot*
Lordship must allow me to say, that this is only o
of the effects produced ley their debasement and loss
of power. The true cause of their now wanting power
is their loss of the sinews of power, (via.) the pod
opinion, support, and roaddeuee of the people which
they thought proper to spurn from t:etu with con-
tempt when they possessed
It is, my Lord, I toast confess very extraordinary;
that this, the true cense, should not have struck your
Lordship, and in a very forcible manner, when you ware'
writing your sentiment's to his Majesty; andisywiticla
writing yea call to his Majesty's yardman/ eadellies'
tion, that the alibetionate hearts of the people sir At
best part of his isiberitance. I have said this mach
to /one j.orilslsip on this part of the subject, to show
your Lordship, that had the party with orbetargmtneill
in the once "louse of the Representatives of de,
people, stood by time people, and joined and
them in their constitutional petitions for a t

self or your party can be any thing like a compea
sation for performing such dirty work.
This brings me to the considsratiui of your Lord-
ship's famous petition; I say famous, because I must ad-
mit that there is much abilityand some constitutional ar-
patent, particularly in the early part; bat at theism=
time I cannot consider the latter part in any other
light than dangerous; became the presentatiou of such
• Petition appears to me only adapted to the purpose
before alluded to, via. that of getting Castlereegb and
big companions out of the deplorable state which they
Bate got themselves into : and from which, without
some side-winded manustivre like that reeomanded by
your Lordship's Address, they can never be extricated;
and to allow theses to sneak out of their disgraceful ,
situation in such a way will be very unsatisfactory to 1
the independent hearts of the people, while it leaves
even the least stain on her Majesty's honour, which
your Petition, were it to be adopted by the people and
acquiesced in by his Majesty, would be well adapted
to fix the colouring matter laid on so lavishly by her
Majesty's enemies, that nothing on earth could ever
have the effect of removing.
Your Lordship is wade to state In this Address that
it is desirable that her Majesty, the Queen of England,
should live a sort of probational life by which his Ma-
jesty and the people of this country shall be enabled
to form a judgment of the probability of the charges
made against her Majesty being true or false. This ap-
pears to me to be a most extraordinary reeonstneodatios ;
but if your Lordship really mean this as your opinion,
you should certainly have gone a little farther, and
say how lung her Majesty should be doomed to each
a mode of trial, and at what period his Majesty and 1
the people should pass their verdict. How your Lord-
ship could cress for one motuent entertain an Idea I,
that the Quern should lee left in this situation
of suspense for an in' Suite time, under the se-
vere sentence which you so properly stated
his Majesty himself has indicted upon his Queen,
viz. that of excluding her from his Palace and his'
Courts, thereby holding her up to the contempt of
those miserable wn tellies, your Lordship is pleased to
call courtiers, and wise, at the souse tints you say,:
would desert her without a question on her behaviour ,
in consequenre thereof; and that, therefore, your
Lordship consider. his Majesty might safely leave his
Queen with this weight of suspicion shoot her in the
midst of the moral society of England, for those are
your Lordship's own words ; sod then you conclude 1
the Petition which yon recommend to be adopted, by ,
praying his Majesty to prorogue his Parliament, and
thus putt an end to the proceedings at present pending
against her Majesty. This mode may be a satisfili
one to your Lordship and your party, becau
might be the means of thrusting Castlereagh and his
companions out of °Aire, that you may fill their places;
and even submitted to by them, as I verily believe,
notwithstanding their well-known love of the loaves and
fishes of office, they would even sacrifice this to get
oat of the dilemma ; and. were that to be the case, I
bore no hesitation in saying, the Bill of Pains and
Penalties would not be renewed, or the Breen Bag re-
pleulsked. Rut let me ask your Lordship would this
Von antidote to the sting her Majesty's feelings has
received, or a bales= to heal the wostnel ; or would is
even mossier any of the stain that has been throw
upon her Majesty's honour; or would it be
