In the fjuet n’s intention to travil, an mten. tion which she put into full execution, we see a wry good and sufficient reason for employing a man of this description: but Vet, we who have never travelled on the continent, cat. have but a vety impelled idea of the necessity ol such a peuon on n journey. It is noi calling a post-chaise, or rather, driving up to un mil gate, and wailing five minutes, and being tiken on again in perfect safety s and Urns from BtVe to s'agc, as from Southampton to Edinburgh, sleeping half the time if you like. This is not Hit race upon the con fluent. Hut on the contrary, to ohtam horses, to secure lodging, and to secure your tin oats from being cut-in those lodg ings, is a business t.o be-intrusted to none but clever men, and brave men 100. l o fill sncli an office with ability > s no small merit; & itwas precisely this sort ol merit, of which at that lime, her majesty stood in need A man of a thousond limes, as much merit in other respects would not have been Co valuable lo the Queen at the period to which we are She wits beivl on travel; and to travel with convenience, or eve i with safety to her life, she stood \wrtL!L abb i ,lute nec, !v. o ‘’.. fc .Pm 8 , 0 ,?. should have teal and venality as well as n hllity. and was in it to reward him highly the best and most effectual way of secur ing the fidelity and zeal? liergami was (upon whose recomenda tion, the Attorney-Uenerol does not know) taken into the Queen's service in the tad of 1814 at Milan. These most be some, mistake in this part of •the speech; for it, aays'hathe entered the Queens service, about J 5 days before slie quitted Milan to go to Naples, and that she hud been three mouths, at Milan before she quitted, it, though she arrived on the 9i'i of October, and arrived at Naples on the Bth of Novem ber, However, the Attc rny-Ocnral says that Bergami, as soon as the Queen aniv ed at Napels, became her Paramour. On the yth of November begins the history of these Tounderful. amours. From this ‘ time, just three weeks after he entered the Queen’s service, he became her b< d fel low. They carried on openly nil sorts of Indecencies. Their conduct was flagrant that every eye observed it. The Queen slept in ids Led without tak.ng the smallest precaution to disguise tin:fact-, and this too,' as constantly as a wife steeps with her husband. Nut by night only was this love affair going on; but by day also, at at theatres, balls, at inns, openly in tho st • ets, before the litce of all tho world. Che Queen brakfusted with Jiergami alone and in short, (hoy wore openly man and wife* except that they were so excessively fund, Itwas a pair of turtle doves continually billing and cooing. Now observe, dll tins while Laty Charlotte Lindsay, Lady Elizabeth Forbes, Kvppe II ■Craven, bir W. Chi', Ur Holland, and Capt. Hesse Were hving in the same house r,”ih the Queen/ Is it possible, that the -above-mentioned scenes could be going ei'., and they know nothing of them? I ask if this be possible? liemember that these seems were going on, not for a day, a week, or a month; but from November is .March inclusive; that is to say, five mouths. These English Ladies were maids of hon or, and the Gentlemen were chamberlains ■and equeries, and one, a Physician. — Afhcre were there eyes and ears ? Tiny Were, in the same homse , under the same roof, and yet they never saw or heard any tlnpg about these open, and flagrant, and shameful doings! Will yov say ; will any man of sincerity say, that he believes that SMch things could be going on without any of these six persons, all living in the same house with the criminal parties, bearing thing at all of the matter ? Yet they could not have heal'd any thing qf it -s or ’ if they had, to have remained in the house would have made the Ladies lurwds and the Gen tlemen pimps In spite of this inevitable conclusion, the Attorney CLneral, in oader to guard beforehand against the objection I am now taking, save that doubtless, these La dies and Gentlemen, did hear rumors,. What! Hear rumors? From what quarter? And why talk of rumors, when the amours were carried on, not only every night, but every diy, and that, too, far more shame fully than the amours of the common street Streetwalkers? Why talk of i mi ., \ n such cases f Can that which is open, fl grant, notorious, be a subject of rumosr I V . weH , 6H >* •» this mo ment, that it is rumored that the Queen’s tral is going on, for, if the Attorney Generali s slotement were true, the Queen somours at Naples were as notorious aa tml „ow is. it is the most cut ions thing t**uhe world ever hetrd of, that rumour * lioulii toll tbeinm»t-:Scrtl>e Q.ieen what was pa«inu' under their own eyes. Tne Queen’s servants taw al, that was passing. have talked of A And were not B».fte of those servants about to English ladies and Gentleman? it is posiblc, tsat Bergami colld have here slept with the Que™ every night; break-, fast.d with her every morning; toyed with and k'ssed her every day ; she go openly to his bedside; is * possible for this to be going on, tmd under the same roof with six ladies and gentlemen, and these ladies and gentlemen never know any thing of the matter, except from.inere rumour f 1 ask if this be possible ? And p it he not believed tp be possible, sliall we believe the swearing of Italian witnes ses to the facts ? shall «c believe then oaths sufficient to convict the evidence of our own senses? Shall we believe. that their swearings arc sufficient to make tin. possibilities truths? However, if there were a rumour that readied the ears of those English ladies ami gentlemen: if we snppcse that Ibis was so, how are we to account for their conduct during the-whole ol the history ? A rumour would naturally and unavoida bly set their enquiring powers to work. It la impossible that they should not have come at the facts in an hour at farthest. Their own observation would have been enfiugh.; but, there were there sen-ants, all living in the same house with the Queen’s servants, and all necessarily ha ting the paramour from feelings of envy. The facts must have been ascertained in an instant, and yet these six ladies and gentlemen hear the rumor, and never make any enquiry at all: though all the means «>f ascertaining the facts were at hand; and, what is more, tho they all very well knew, that they should run no risk of disfavor ut home by denouncing and ex posing their mistress, They remain qui et; they‘hear the rumour, they make no enquiry, the English ladies rc-pnain in a house, which the Attorney-Geneural re., presents a* worse than a bawdy-house; they hear it rumored that it is such, but still they remain, and say not a word about the mutter; and, in this state, this dis graceful and infamous state,they continue nearly five mouths/ Will an Englishman believe this ? and yet this he must believe, or he must believe the Attorney-Genwal* statement to be false, though supported by the swearing# of a thousand witnesses.* It is imputation,, thafc the General casts on those ladies and gentlemen. He is compelled to state, that they remained five months under the same roof with the parties, who were car rying on the intercourse which he so min utely described. He Sees clearly the im putiitipn that he casts on them ; and he endeavors to excise their unaccountable conduct by observing, that some of them left the Qmeen, Left her! When? Why, at the end of fiv,e months of this scandalous work ! 'No: thev did not leave her. 'They staid at Naples when she went towards Home, on her way to Genoa. So that she Ift them ; and ,not they her. But what arc we to thine, then, of the some of them that went with her that followed her from the scene of her amours at Naples : that still went with her, lived with her as in mates, though Bergami still occupied his nlace, and slill openly and flagrantly car neti on nis sirnoiua nun »*cn ? i*iiv ai torney General, over and over again, begs the Lords to mark well the circumstance of the Queen’s English attendants leaving her : and he begs them to regard the fuel as corroborating his Italian evidence. Now Lad) Charlotte Lindsay and Dr. ■Holland went with tho Queen from Naples, and accompanied her as fir as Leghorn. Why , did tlie others stay at Naples? why did they not go along with she Queen ? They, in all probability, prefered the pursuit of their own taste to that of travelling about,' which the Queen delighted in, and which , they must have known was her intention to pursue . for as w’e. afterwards find, -she kept constantly rambling by sea as well as by land, which, doubtless, presented a series of toils, that <hose ladies and gen • llemcn did qqt choose to encounter. For, upon what oilier ground are we to ac count for a part remaining at Naples, and a part doing with the Cpreii ? The Attor ney General would irave us believe, that the separation arose from rumors, which" the ladies and gentlemen had heard. But what arc we to think, then of Dr Holland, and, ahoye ail, of lady Charlotte Lindsay? Or, are we to be such sots as to suppose . it possible, that Lady Elizabeth Forbes had heard rumors, which did hot reach the cars of Lady Charlotte Lindsay ? If we could possibly suppose this, we must set Lady Elizabeth "Forbes down aa guilty, net only of a gross and shameful neglect" of duty ; hut as guilty of something very little short of misprision of treason What! she hears a rumor, and a rumor so strong and of such a nature; in short she hears what makes her believe, that the Queen is living in a stale of double adultery : she thinks it not safe or decent to remain any longer with such a woman : she hears and believes and acts upon this intelligence and yet she never -communicates it to her sister maid of honor ! Nay, she never gives her a hint of it, and lets her go off to continue to live in that same infamous state which they have all so long been liv ; ing in ! Will any man say, that he believes this} Yet this he must believe, and a gseat deal more than this, before he be lieves the Attorney General and his wit-, nesses. But Lady Charlotte Lindsay leaves the Queen (that is U say the Queen leave , her) at Leghorn. We shall find. I dan say, that the lady was weary, (hat she prefered rest and ease to travelling 'and tod, and. particularly, that she had no relish for a aes voyage, which the queen’s now became, to Genoa. However, ladj Chailottc Campbell joins the queen at Genoa, and goes on with her afterwards to Milan, where, let it be observed, Ber gami’s family lived. This is a very ma teriaifact. The attorney-general dwells upon such persons leaving the queen as 1 he has the foulness to call it—but be nevci dwells upon such persons joining hei You wilt have observed, that one of her English followers, Mr . St- Ledger, left her, as it is called, at, Brunswick before she entered Italy, and. of course before she saw Bergami. This fact is slipped ever.. Why did this gentleman stay behind? Because be did not choose to travel fur ther to be sure —'These persons-were all going on their enu pleasure: and it was not their taste to keep travelling about. Ii is impossible, that Mr. St. Ledger could have taken any offence at the amours of Bergams, and yet it is certain that he staid behind. Why, thon, are we to impute the staying behind us the-others, one as ter another; to any other cause, than that of their own taste—or, prob-bly, the state of their health ? Look a t the queen’s tours, and you will sec, that it required no common strength of body to endure the fatigue of them—and here alone are we to look for the cause of her attendants dropping off {rota her, as it has nwliglautly been called. But to return to Lady Charlotte Camp bell, how came she to join the qucwu at Genoa,after Lady U- Lindsay had “drop, ped off” at Leghorn ? Had the rumors never reached her"? Humors could reach the well-dressed rabble at the west end of London, bn» they could not reach from Naples to Genoa; though all the babling servants of lire queen were there ! It is impassible tobefieve, that Lady C.Camp bell had heard of the rumors - and yet it is next to impossible to believe, that she i should not have heard o? them, if it had keen they which induced lody C. Lind lay so drop oil st Leghorn,. But there is lomethingof much mors importance than tliis in the fact of this l:uly,s joining the Hueen, and much more worthy of our best attention The lady could not join the queen of her own mere notion. She c»uld not come into her house and tra vtlin her carriage along with her, and live with her, ot her own authority. Who ceiu h«r to the queen ?—ln consequence of whit did she “Join ’’her ? To hear the auorney general, one would think that tip queen was a sort of army that was tobe deserted from and “ joined ” at pleasu-e. No 1no? it must be believed, that tre queen did not keep an inn or ta vern: it must he believed, that people could not come aud live with her at their pleapre ! it must be believed, that La dy GGampbell joined the. queen at the queei’s own request; or, at the very least, with'ier majesty’s consent —this must be beliced -. and believing it, it is impossi ble to believe the charges against tin queen, though sworn to by ten times the uumbe: of creatures now in the rediubl, and interpreted by an Italian marquis, liv ing in that fo.tress, and acting under the nslruclions d the solicitor of the trea ; iuiy. For what hive we hear before us ? A woman carrying on the most indecent in tercourse will her servant—sleeping with him every nijUt—lolling upon- him and hanging ahelt his neck by day—more love sick than any girl of sixteen ever was—unable t* live out of the sight of her • paramour—uiable to restrain herself even before her mile servants; living in astute the bare description of which would ex cite a blush -liven in a brothel: and, Wc . see this wom.n taking into her house an English lady to be a witness of her way of fife, and tc convey an account of it to England—aiu doing this, too, when she was on her wiy to the neighborhood oTfter gami’s family To believe all this is im- ' possible. 'Here is no man living who can believe i —And yet all this must be believed, andfir.idy believed 100, before we believe tie Italian witnesses and the attorney -genral. ; If the quest,s conduct and inclinations had been wlijt the attorney general says they were atNaples and on the road to, Genoa—and Especially, if the other Eng -1 lish ladies hud “ dropped oil” In couse. quence of 11 at conduct, which they could not lime Uowr. Wittumi tier suspecting the 1 cause .- Ksuch had been the case—(and who so apt to suspect as those conscious of guilt?) If such had been the case, 1 put it to any man, and more particularly to any woman, whether the queen would have wanted another English lady in her house? No! she would have rejoiced at having got rid of those who had “ drop ped off”—she would have kept them in future at a distance—she would have a . Voided them as thieves avoid watchmen end police officers—she would no more nave taken lady C, Campbell into her house than a hen would take aiwcasel in to her nest. 'This one notorious fact is an answer . to the statements of the attorney general, ami to the swearings.of all his witnesses: and this fact is stated by the attorney gen eral himself. “ The Queen might take lady C, Campbeh. as a blind.” For what, when she is represented as having, even . at this time, and long before, set all ap. pearances at defiance—as having lost ail shame—as being completely infatuated and besotted —as having, in short, given herself up wholly to the embraces, day aud night; of Bergami. Why, then, should she take an English Lady ? For society's uo: for she haled all society; hue that of her paramour. Skc coultf ehuiire no interruption, and yet she voluntarily ; took this lady into her Uouso; w.hich, if the attorney general’s charges were true, and lire swearings of his witnesses any thing hut what they are, she could have done for no earthly purpose other than that of enabling lady C. Campbell to wit -ness, and to send to her husband a faith ful and detailed account of her amours with her servant!—Can we believe this ? Can ws believe such a thing of any wo man breathing ? And yet this we must believe ; or we must disbelieve the attor > ney,general and his witnesses. It appears that lady- C. Campbell re mained with the queen from march, 1815, o May or June, 1316. What! was she ail this while in the same house with the queen without hearing of the adulterous intercourse ? Can any one believe; that a Lady would he so long under the siime r iff, without hearing of things, or of any >f the things,, such us thdsc alleged a ' gainst the queen ? No man can believe it! Yet this lady remained more than a whole year in the house! If she did hear ■if the amours, she was no better than a based io remain under the roof: and she was besides guilty of of misprision of trea son. Therefore, we are to believe, that she never did hear of those amours, and yet we cannot believe this, without be devil.g that the amours are a fabrication. .The Queen went from Genoa to Milan. Here,was a fair opportunity for Lady C- Campbeli, to stay behind. Yet she did not. She went after the Queen to Milan, fihe followed her thither baud she -‘ drop ped off,” that is staid behind, when the queen set out on a long journey to Venice. However, the Hon Mr. Bun-ill “joined” the Queen before she took this journey, accompanied her in the journey, and, “dropped oft as she was returning. But she was, about the same time “joined Mr. Howtaud and Mr. Flyen, who had.BK-n in the King’s service two officers of course. When these “ dropped off,” we are not informed ; probably when she was aboui to So on her sea voyages, they having perhaps had enough of sea voyages before, to Ust them their lifetimes j.
