at die bar of the House ot Lords. Ou the

at the bar of the house of lords, in defence
oftheir mistress, without vacating their

dercagh did not oppose me motion, and
was allowed The same permission was
also granted to Ur. Lushington, one ot her
Majesty’s Counsel, and to the Kings At
toritey and Solicitor General. This per
mission is understood to be an exception
to the general rule, and is not hereafter
to be taken as a precedent.
The following resolutions, in substance,
were adopted in the House of Lords on
the the 16th.
1. That the bill respecting the Queen
he read a second time on Thursday, the
17th August.
2. That Mils Order be Communicated to
the Queen.
3. That on the 17th of August, Coun

coed reading of the Bill. [lt was previ
ously observed, that if the day proposed
was inconvenient to the Queen, her Ma--
jesty’s Counsel could make application
without delay for further time.]
4. That Counsel should be heard on the

should be informed of this Resolution.

for anmhcr Meeting of the City of London

seating a petition and remonstrance a
gainst the proceedings in the House of

Queen. It is reported that Middlesex
will meet for the same purpose.

after the reigning family, and though her
succession to the thro.te is highly improb
able, it is not impossible. Would it not

Queen, and was present at some of her
parties in Venice. She put forth the
prospectus of a work to prove that the

solicited subscriptions to publish the book.

Money is extremely abundant at the
Stock Exchange, that it has been offered
ou Loan till the settling day, which is
t’uesday next, at the rate of 2 per cent,
and lias not in many instances found em
ployment. For longer periods a higher
ate is obtained, and the continuation on.
Im August account is nearly equivalent
■to 5 percent. Hence it is inferred that
large sums have been prepared by the
leading speculators for a rise, in order
to take the stock they have purchased
tor the-settlement, and which they are
willing to employ for the few intervening
days at a very small profit, but that tin
produce of the dividends has not hitherto
been received so generally into circula

abundance of money will continue after
the account day. The second payment
on the Loan was made on -Friday, and if

pay up the remaining instalments, a re

were hoisted on all the public crosses, and
crowns of oak and laurel were thrown

heroic citizen is said to have been quite
overpowered with feelings of gratitude.
He proceeded to the Hall, where the Mu

THE QUEEN’S PLATE.
Dr. Lushington regretted exceedingly
that he did not see the noble Secretary
for Foreign Affairs in his place, us he had
a question to pul to him, of which he be
. lievt-d her Majesty *s Solicitor General Had
given the noble Lord notice. In 1808 his
late Majesty ordered a sendee of plate,
widen he presented to her then Royal
Hignness the Princess of Wales; and het
Koval Highness continued to use it from
that time until 1814, when she went a
broad; and at that period she deposited it,
ash r private property, with Mr. Maul.,
ol the Lord Chamberlain’* office. On her
recent return, she applied lor it, w hen she
i was informed by the Lord Chamberlain
i sue could not have it, as it was the pro
» perty ot the Crown, and he hud official
documents to shew it. Little did her Ma
i j< it) expect Uial these nice point# of law
would he resorted to, to deprive t her, not
only of what was necessary to her dignity,
hut to U«r comfort, lit addition to all the
w
inanfts the had suffered, het Msjesty had
to complain of this last, the moat despica
ble of *ll. He knew tlii* mult hate been
,lbe act of Minister*, and he trusted they
would not deny it; yet he believed the
a hole of this transaction could lot be
known v» h ' B Majesty’s confidential adri
sens If they were cognizant of.it, this
last base and pitiful attempt to annoy her
Majesty shewed a lamentable difference
between their profession and their prac
tice. He concluded by moving a humble
address to his Majesty -for copies of alt
communications which had passed with
the Lord Chamberlain’s office relative to
the sen ice of plate which was given to
her Majesty by the late King.
Mr Vansittart thought he had reason to
complain of the lion Gentleman in thus
taking the House by surprise. It was true
t at there was such a service ofjplate pre
sented to the Princess of Wales by the
late King, for hi r use, when her Majesty
was at Kensington Palace, but that plate
was the property of the Crown. Had the
Hon. Gentleman condescended coni
municate to him his intention ol bringing
on this jmbjeci, lie might have been pre
pared to answer him. The House also 1
bad a right to expect some notice; ami
therefore, he trusted the Hon. Gentleman
would withdraw his motion now, and men
tion it again on Monday. *
Dr. l.uskiiigton had no wash to take the
House by surprize, but at this late period
of the session no tune was to be lost.* 11,
would, however, with the leave of the
House, withdraw his motion, and iet it be
considered as a notice for Monday. The
motion was accordingly withdrawn.

Late from Gibraltar,

We are indebted to a commercial friend
fur the following copy of a letter from Gi
braltar dated the 16th July, received vh.
Baltimore.
“If you have heard nothing from Spain
lately, the following facts may interest you
t he 9th of July was a great day in Span
signalized by the first meeting of the Coi
es at Madrid, since the proclamation < ■
die Constitution. I was at Algiers—the
garrison was paraded in the great square,
now called Place de la Const; UMon.v-re
viewed by the Governor (Gen. Jacor,
•nd his suite—anti as eich pintoon passed,
be subaltern* a-h soldiers, <he Od-crno
and the populace, joined in the acclama
tion of viva La Constitusior.e—viva Qum>-
ga, &c.—while in the interval was heard
he noise of the distant artillery at Ceuta,
n honor of the day. Tne priests in tin.
Cathedral after mass, were obliged, reluc
tantly enough “/ guess,” to parade th
aisle, with a silken cvp of liberty, sur
mounted by a erd s, accompany ing'the
organ, with patriotic songs, followed oy
a long train of men, women and childr ■»*
1 saw, or thought 1 saw, on (he counten
ances of the priests officiating, a sort of
sneer not expressive of- he highest satis
faction. After this ceremony was per
formed the officers retired patriotically to
eat and drink at the Cape de Quartre Na
ciones—which being done, towards eve
ning they got in “great spirits” —and ap
peared upon the balconies liana,igumg
the mob, who appeared to be somewhat
in spirits too. One of the officers, a man
of greater spirits than the rest, put on his
head a cap of liberty and fought the air
for some lime with the most frantic jestic
illations, whilst the utmost compass of his
voice was drbwned in the din of “viva
Iliego, viva Q, nroga,” fkc. Having excr
cised themselves in this way, until thev
appeared to be somewhat exhausted, they
came down stairs and walked arm and
arm through the streets—that in union
there might be strength, (very prudently
thought of,)singing a song, w'hich is now
in the mouth ofevery little ragaipuffin— (a
good sign this,) —the burden of which is
mourir pro palrta. In the evening was a
great illumination, and a string of people
amusing themselves in various ways—
much like the 4th of July in New York
taking into consideration the differences of
population.
The following is the substance of a let
ter of the Sweedish Consul at Tangiers
11th July, 1020.
“The political situation of this wretched
country, has become worse than ever.—
The Emperor having had some quarrel
with his guard of negroes and ciudaias,
effected his escape from Raback on the
20th June, and withdrew, to Dar-el Biaca,
where he remained up to the end of the
month, when it is said that he effected a
nev r escape over the Azamon and Asfi, &
from thence across the country and the
Atlas mountains, loTafilet.—Anarchy and
licentiousness prevails in all
those provinec-s; and it is actually impos
sible to pass from this town to Tetuan or
Kabash. One Ali el Lnshee. an Arab, of
the tribe of Beni Husoii, infests, with a
swarm of rebellious mountaineers, the
country between Efkaser, Wazer, and Sa-
Ica The first of these places was attack
ed on Thursday and entirely plundered.—
Sail El I.usue* himself, curried off', under
the wails of E.aruiacli, about 800 -cows and
bullocks. Teionan had shut die gates,
and was on Friday attacked by 4000 Eige
balls, with intent U> plunder the Jew* and
rich Moors, but these monsters were re
pulsed by the high spirited governor, the
famous and aged Hashash. The Empe
a.ir’s guard* who remained at Kabaih, have
rubbbed the treasury, divided the money
among them* Ives— but are now shut up
