Should fail in effecting her conviction, they adapt
their measures for the minor purpose of making her
suspected. After two laborious weeks, what is the whole
summit of their evidence, even upon their witnerans

winless spoken to the fact of adultery ? And what
la the character of those who have defamed her Ma-

usually respect? When British officers and men of
honour are brought forward, do they testify to any
criminality or even improper familiarity on the part
of the QUEEN ? It cannot escape the notice of the
most superficial, that many of the tales related by the
foreign witnesses carry their contradiction within,

man or woman of sense can give a moment's credit.
A number of the actions imputed to the QUEEN are
inconsistent with the conspicuous character of het

While suffering under the impression produced by
the perjuries of Lady Docatss, the Palm-ass, who

lenirgnity had flowed, was aware of the clang -r to
which she was exposed by a repetition of its efforts.
In a letter to his late MAJESTY, dated the 16th of
February 11107,81 m expresses apprehensions that ought
always to be kept in mind, and that are peculiarly
applicable to the circumstances of the present moment.
