her as Queen Consort Of this realm ana
that her said Majesty shall, from and ai'eE
the passing Of this act, for ever be d'sa-
bled aud rendered incapable oil using' ca,
ercising and enjoying the same, or any o.
them, and moreover, that the marriage
between his Majesty and the said Caroline
Amelia Elizabeth be, and the same IS
hereby from henceforth Tor ever who''y
dissolved, annuIled and made void TO all
intents, constructions aud purposes what
soever.
The Earl Of Liverpool moved that the
bill should be printed and copies oil y de-
liyered 10 the Queen. Earl Grey wished
10 know If any other sort OF communica'
ton we're TO be made TO The etua~n lie
put it 10 the noble lord whether the same
information ought not 10 accompany the
hill to point out the particular occasions
and circumstances which we're alluded to.
He wished 10 know also if list Of witness
es we're 10 be given TO her legal advisers.
The Earl Of Liverpool thought that 1t
would be time enough Oh the second read-
ing 10 discuss the matters referred TO. As
10 giving the accused last OF witnesses,
ii was wholly unprecedented 10 parl'a-
menlary proceedings, whether OF impeach-
ment, or 90 a bill OF pains and penalties,
aud was never allowed even IN criminal
judicalure, except 10 the single case Of
high treason: Her Majesty would be al
lowed her choice, as 10 whether the aecu-
sation should be proceeded 10, or be staid,
in the FIRST place, until the defence was
ready. Lord Dacre felt it necessary TO
move that the counsel should now be heard
OH behalf of the Queen, that they might
be enabled TO state those weighty circum-
stances alluded to in The petition. He did
so Oh Information received very recently.
He moved that the counsel should be CALI
ed 10. Lord Liverpool thought it would
be better 10 put it off till Tomorrow. when
it could be done without any irresularity,
and at which time he would not attempt to
oppose ii. After some other general OBJ
servations by Earl Grey, Lord Liver
pool, the Lord Chancellor, aud Lord Hol-
land, the bill was read first time, and
copies were ordered TO be- delivered forth
with 10 Inc Queen by gentlemen ..she.

and solicitor-general, and TO the Kings

Singular Occurrence. "A black woman,
belonging to Mr.. Kennard, who lives
abou. mile from this town, one day last
week, was discovered by one of the fami-
ly, lying on the ground at some distance
from the house, apparently Iifeiess but
90 close examination, her pulse appeared
regular, and she drew her breath as cue
10 sound sleep. 10 this dormant state,
she lay about "a hours; durisg which
lime the tears would frequently roll down
her cheeks in copious showers, and at
times her countenance would express
symptoms of horror and then brighten up
With smile Of joy. On arousing from
this cold and motionIess state, she is said
10 have uttered desperate shrek. The
physician who was called to examine her,
we understand, pronounced her health to
be good-without pretending TO assign any
cause for her situation. II is the general
belief, however, that she has been 10 q
trance; and the novelty Of the circum-
stance has excited much curiosity, aud
affords topic for conversation with many
in this neishborhood.

Great importance being attached TO the
occupation OF Santa Fe, by Bolivar, can
only arise from want of proper know
