TItE QUEER'S LETTER TO THE KVfO.
Sin,—After the unparalleled and un
provoked persecution which, during a
aeries of years, has been carried on a-
gnintt me under the name nnd authority
of your Majesty—and which persecu
tion, instead of being mollified by time,-
time has rendered only more and more
malignant nnd unrelenting—it is not with
out a great sacritiae of private feeling
that I now, even in the remonstrance,
-bring myself to address this letter to your
Majesty. Put, bearing in inind that Roy
alty rests on the basis of public good ;
that to this paramount consideration all
other?-ought to submit; and aware of the
consequences that may result from the
present unconstitutional, illegal, Si hith
erto unheard of proceedings ;—with a
mind thus impressed, I cannot refrain
from layiug my grievous wrongs once
tnore before your Majesty, in the hope
’that the justice which your Majesty may,
hv evil-minded counsellors, be still dis
posed to refuse to the claims of a dutiful,
faithful, and injured wife, you may be
induced to yield to considerations con
nected with the honour and dignity of
your crown, the stability of your throne,
the tranquility of your dominions, the
•happiness and safety of your just and
'loyal people, whose generous hearts re
volt at oppression and cruelty, and es
pecially when perpetrated by a perver
sion and a mockery of the laws.
A sense of what is due to my chnrac-
terandsex forbids me to refer minutely to
•the real causes of our domestic separation,
or to the numerous unmerited insults of
fered me previously to that period ; but,
leaving to your Majesty to reconcile with
the marriage vow the net of driving, by
such means, a wife from beneath your
roof, with an infant in her arms, your
Majesty will permit me to remind you,
that that act was entirely your own ;
that the separation, so far from being
•sought for by me, was a sentence pro
nounced upon tne. without any cause as
signed^ other than that of your owd in
clinations, which, as your Majesty was
pleased to allege, were not under yoar
Control.
I Not to have felt, with regard to myself,
chagrin at this decision of your Majesty,
would have argued great insensibility to
the ohligtions of decorum ; not to have
dropped n tear in tire face ofthat beloved
•child, whose future sorrows were then
but too easy to/eresce, would have mar
led me as unworthy of the name of mo
ther ; but not to have submitted to it
without repining, would have indicate)
sidering the wound given to public mo
ml?, tlvc fatal example produced by the
indulgence of your majesty’s inclinations;
more especially when I contemplated the
disappointment of the nation, who had so
munificently provided for our union, who
had fondly cherished such pleasing hopes
of happiness arising from that union, and
who had hailed it with such affectionate
and rapturous joy.
But, alas! even trnnquilify and comfort
were too much for me to enjoy. From
the very threshold of your Majesty's
mansion the mother of your child v.r*
pursued by spies, conspirators, and trai
tors, employed, encouraged, and reward
ed to lay snares for the feet, nnd to plot
against the reputation and life, of her
whom your Majesty had so recently and
so solemnly vowed to honour, to love,
and to cherish.
In withdrawing from the embraces of
■my parents, in giving my hand to the son
of George the Third and the heir-ap
parent to the British throne, nothing K-*s
than a voice from Heaven would have
made »e fear injustice or wrong of any
kind. What, then, was my astonishment
at finding that treasons against me had
been carried on and matured, perjuries
against me had been methodized and em
bodied, a secret tribunal had been held,
a trial of my actions had taken place, and
decision had been made upon those ac
tions, witliont my having been informed
of the nature of the charge, or of the
names of the witnesses ? And what nerds
can express the feelings excited by the
fact, that this proceeding was founded on
a request made, and on evidence ‘ur-
nished, by order of the father of my
child, and my natural as well as legal
guardian nnd protector ?
Notwithstanding, however, the unpre
cedented conduct of that tribunal—con
duct which lias since undergone, even in
Parliament, severe and unanswered an
imadversions, nnd which has boon also
coasured in minutes of the Privy Coun
cil—-notwithstanding the secrecy of the
proceedings of this tribunal !—notwith
standing the strong temptation to the giv
ing of false evidence against me before
it—notwithstanding that there was no
opportunity afforded me of rebutting that
evidence—notwithstanding all these cir
cumstances, so decidedly favorable ste
my-enemies—oven this secret tribunal
acquitted me of all crime, and thereby
pronounced my .principal accusers to
have been guilty of the grossest perjury.
But it was now (after the trial was over)
discovered that the nature of die tribu
nal was such as to render false swearing
before it not legally criminal ! And lhu9,
at the suggestion and request of your
Majesty, hud been created, to take cog
nizance of and try my conduct, a tribu
nal competent to administer oaths, com
petent to examine witnesses on oath,
competent to try, competent to acquit or
condemn, and competent, moreover, to
screen those who had sworn falsely a-
gainst me from suffering the pains and
penalties which the law awards to wilful
nnd corrupt perjury. Great as my in
dignation naturally must have keen at this
shirnefiil evasion of law and justice, that
indignation was lost in pity for him who
could lower his princely plumes to the
dust by giving his countenance and fa
vour torthe most conspicuous of those
abandoned and notorious perjurers.
Still there was one whose upright
mind nothing could warp, in whose breast
injustice never found a place, whose
hand was always ready to raise the un
fortunate, and to rescue tbe oppressed.—
While that good and gracious father and
Sovereign remained in the exercise ofhis
royal functions, Iris unoffending daugh
ter-in-law had nothing to fear. As long
as the protecting hand of your late ever
beloved and evor lamented father was
held over me, I was safe.—But the mel
ancholy event which deprived the nation
of the active exertions of its virtuous
king, bereft tne of friend and protector,
and of all hope of-future tranquility and
safety.. To calumniate your innocent
wife was now the shortest way to royal
favour ; and to betray her was to lay the
sure foundation of boundless riches nnd
titles of honor. Before claims like these,
talent, virtue, long services, your own
personal friendships, your royal engage
ments, promises and pledges, written ns
well as verbal, melted into air. Your
cabinet was founded on this basis.—
You took to your eouncits men of whose
persons, as well as whose principles, you
had invariably expressed the strongest
dislike. The interest of the nation, nnd
even your own feelings, in all other re
spects, were sacrificed to the gratification
of your desire to aggravate my sufferings,
and ensure my humiliation. You took
to your councils nnd bosom men whom
you hated, whose abandonment of, and
whose readiness to sacrifice ino were
their only merits, and whose power has
been exercised in a manner, and has beeft
attended with consequences, worthy of
its orgin. From this unprincipled and
unnatural union have sprnng the mani
fold evils which this nation has now to
endure, and which present a muss of
misery and of degredation, accompanied
with acts of tyranny and cruelty, rather
than have seen which indicted on his
industrious, faithful, and brave people,
your royal father would have perished
at the head ofthat people.
" hen to culuminate, revile and betray
me, become the suro path to honour and
riches, it would have been strange in
deed if calumniators, revilers, and trai
tors, had not abounded. Your Court
bepsme much less a scene of polished
manners and refined intercourse than of
low intrigue mid scurrility, fqiics, Bac
chanalian tale-bearers, and foul conspi
rators, swarmed in those place* which
had before been the resort of sobriety,
virtue, nnd honour. To enumerate nil
the various privations and mortifications
which 1 had to endure, all the insults
which were wantonly heaped upon me,
from the day of your elevation to the Re
gency to that of my departure for the
Continent, would he to describe emry
species of personal offence that car* be
offered to, nnd every pain short of bodily
violence that can be indicted on any hu
man being. Bereft of parent, brother,
and father-in-law, and my husband for
my deadliest foe ; seeing those who have
promised me support bought by rewards
to he amongst my enemies ; restrained
from accusing my foes in the face of the
world, out of regard for the character of
the father of my child, and from a desire
to prevent her happiness from being dis
turbed ; shunned front motives of sel
fishness by tho^e who wero my natural
associates ; living in obscurity, while 1
ought to have been the centre of all that
was splendid ; tRus bumbled, 1 had one
consolation left—the love of my dear
and only child. To permit me to enjoy
this was too great an indulgence. To
see any daughter ; to fold her in my
arms ; to mingle my tears with her'? ; to
receive her cheering caresses, and to
hear from her lips assurances of never
failing love ;—thus to he comforted, con
soled, upheld, nnd blessed, was too much
to he allowed me. Even on the slave
mart, the cries of “Oh ! my mother, my
mother ! Oh ! rny child, my child,” have
prevented a separation of the victims of
avarice. Rut your advisers, more inhu
man than the slave-dealers, remorseless
ly tore the mother from the child.
Thus bereft of the society of inv child,
or reduced to the necessity of imbittering
her life by struggles to preset ve that so
ciety, l resolved on a temporary ab
sence, in the hope that time might re
store me to her in happier days. Those
days, alas ! were never to come. To
mothers—and those mothers who have
been suddenly bereft r*f the best and most
affectionate and only daughters—it be
longs to estimate my sufferings and my
w rungs, ftiuch mothers will judge of my
affliction upon hearing of the death of my
child, and upon cuy calling to recollec
tion the last look, the last words, and the
‘affecting circumstance ofour separation.
Such mothers will s,-e the depth of my
sorrows. Every being with a heart of
humanity in its bosom will drop a tear
in sympathy with me. And will not the
world, then, learn with indignation, that
this event, calculated to soften the hard
est heart, was the signal fur new con
spiracies, and indefatigable efforts for
the destruction of this afflicted mother ?
\our Majesty had torn my child from
me ; you had deprived me of the power
of being at hand to succour her ; you
had taken from me the possibility of
hearing of her last prayers for her mo
ther ; you saw me bereft, forlorn, and
broken-hearted ; and this was the mo
ment you chose for redoubling your
persecutions.
Let the world pass itsjudgment on the
constituting of a commission, in a foreign
country, consisting of inquisitors, spies,
nud informers, to discover, collect and
arrange matters of accusations against
your wife, without any complaint having
been communicated to her; let the
world judge of the employment of Am
bassadors in sach a business, and of the
enlisting of foreign courts in the enter
prise ; but on the measures which have
been adopted to give final effect to these
preliminary proceedings it k for me to
speak ; it is for me to remonstrate with
your Majesty ; it is for me to protest;
it is for me to apprize you of my deter
mination.
I have always demanded a fiiir trial.
This is what 1 now demand, and this is
refused me. Instead of a fair trial, I am
to he subjected to a Sentence hvjthe Par
liament, passed in theshupe of a law.—
Against this l protest, and upon the fol
lowing grounds :
The injustice of refusing me a clear
and distinct charge, of refusing me the
names of the witnesses, of refusing me
the names of the places where the al
leged acts have been committed ; these
are sufficiently flagrant anil revolting;
hut it is against-the constitution of tho
Court itself that 1 particularly object,
and that l most solemnly protest.
IV hatever may lie the. precedents as
(o Rills ol-Pains and Penalties, none of
them, except those relating to the Queen
of Henry the Eighth, can aprdy here ;•
for here your Majesty is the plaintiff.--
Here it is intended by the Bill to do you
what you deem good, and do mo great
harm. 'You are, therefore, a party, and
the only complaining party.
You have made your complaint to
the House of Lords. \ on have convey,
ed to this House written documents scal
ed up. A Secret Committee of the
House have examined these documents.
They have reported that there arc
grounds of proceeding; nnd then the
House, merely upon that report, have
brought forward a Rill containing the
most outrageous slanders on me. and
sentencing njo to divorce and degrada
tion.
The injustice of putting lorth this Rill
to the world for six weeks before it is
even proposed to afford me an oppoi to ■
nity of contradicting its allegations is
too manifest not to have shocked the na
tion ; and, indeed, the proceedings e-
ven thus far are such as to convince eve
ry one that no justice i9 intended tne.—
Rut if none of these proceeding*, if none
of these clenr indications of a determin
ation to do me wrong had taken place. 1
should see, in the Constitution of the
House of Lords itself, a certainty that
I.could expect no justice at its hands.
Your Majesty’s Ministers l';Tvo advis
ed thi-s prosecution ; they arc respon
sible for the advice they give ; they are
Ruble to punishrnput if they fail to make
good their charges ; and not only are
they part of my judges, but it is they who
have brought in the Rill: and it is too
notorious that they have always a ma
jority in the House ; so that, without
any other, here is ample proof that the
House wiJI decide in lavour of the Bill,
and, of course against me.
Rot further, there are reasons for your
Ministers having a majority in this case,
and which reasons do not apply to com
mon cases. Your Majesty is the plain
tiff': to you it belongs to .appoint and to
elevate Peers. Many of the present
Peers have been raised to that dignity
by yourself, and utmost the whole can
be, at your will nnd pleasure, further
elevated. The far greater part of the
Peers hold, by themselves and their fa
milies, pensions, and other emoluments,
solely at the will and pleasure of your
Majesty, and these, of course, your Ma
jesty can take away whenever you please.
There are more than four fifths of the
Veers in this situation, and there are ma
ny of them who might thus he deprived
of the. far bctler part of their incomes.
If, contrary to all expectation, there
should he found, in some Peers, likely
to amount to a majority, a disposition
to reject the Rill, some of these Peers
may he ordered away to their ships, re
giments, governments, and other duties ;
and, which is an equally alarming pow
er, new Peers may he created for the
purpose, and give their vote in tbe deci
sion. That your Majesty's Ministers
would advise these measures, if found
necessary to render their prosecution
successful, there, enn be very little doubt;
seeing that they have hitherto stopped
at nothin;,, however unjust or odious.
To regard such a body us a court of
Justice would be to calumniate that sa
cred name; and for me to suppress an
expression of my opinion on the subject;
would he tacitly to lend myself to my
own destruction, ns well as to an impo
sition upon the nation and the world.
In the House of Commons I can dis
cover no better grounds of security.—
The power of your Majesty's ministers
is the same in both Houses ; and your
Majesty is well acquainted with the fact;
that a majority of this house is composed
of persons placed in it by the Peers and
by your Majesty’s Treasury.
It really gives me pain to state thesi
things to your Majesty ; and if it gives
your Majesty pain, I beg that it may be
observed, and remembered, that tbe
statement has been forced from me. 1
must either protest against this mode of
trial, or, by tacitly consenting to it, suf
fer my houor to he sacrificed. No in
nocence can secure the accused if the
Judges and Jurors he chosen by tbe ac
cuser ; and if I were tacitly to submit
to n tribunal of this description, 1 should
be instrumental in my owu dishonor.
On these grounds I protest against
this species of trial. I demand a trial
in a Court where the Jurors are taken
impartially from amongst the people, and
where the proceedings are open and
fair. Such atrial I court, and to no o-
tlier will I willingly -submit. If your
Majesty persevere in tbe present pro
ceeding,.! shall, even in the Houses of
Parliament, face my accusers ; hut I
shall regard any decision they uiay make
against me as not in the smallest degree
reflecting on my honour ; and l will not
except compelled by actual force, sub
mit to any sentei.ee which shall not be’
pronounced by a Court of Justice.
1 have now frankly laid before y«nr
M.-yesty a statement of my wrongs, and a
declaration of my views and intentions.
Von have cast upon me every slur.to
which the female character is liable.—
Instead of loving, honouring, and cher
ishing me, agreeably to your solemn
vow, you have pursued me with hatred
and scorn, and with all the means of des
truction. You wrested from me inv
child, and with her my only coaifort and
consolation. You sent me sorrowing
through the world, and even in my soi-
rows pursued me with unrelenting per
secution. Having left me nothing hut
tny innocence, yon would now by a
mockery of justice, deprive mo even of
the reputation of possessingtli.it. The
poisoned bowl nnd the poinartl, are
means more manly than perjured wit
nesses nud partial tribunals ; and they
are less cruel, in as much as life is less-
valuable than honour. If my life would
have satisfied yoti Majesty, you should
have had it cn the sole condition ofgiv
ing tne a place in the same tomb with
my child ; but. sinre you would send
me dishonourad to the grave, 1 will re
sist the attempt with all the mrnns that
it shall please God to give me.

RUSSIAN MANIFESTO,
In the House ofLords, on the 16th of
August, Lord Hollaud, after a series of*
remarks on the state of agitation with
respect to the trial of the Queen, gave-
notice that manv days should not elapse-
before he would call upon the Earl of
Liverpool, for his Majesty’s government
distinctly to disclaim the principles avow
ed in the Russian Manifesto and all par
ticipation in those views, which, if acted
pon. would have the effect of again in-
ulring >r.r, EunorE in tbe calamities of
war, nnd which threatened with destruc
tion the tranquility nnd happiness of e-
very country. It would afford him great
atisfaction to receive thus early a disa
vowal of those views and principles ;
but.otherwise, when he should request
the information in the course ol'a few
d ys, lie trusted that the Noble Lord
would not consider himself a* taken b r
snrpYtse.
The Earl of Liverpool observed that
as the noble Lord had expressd ' a deter
mination to put some questions after
wards in a distinct shape, he did not think,
that a proper season for entering at aoy
le ngth am the subject adverted to.—
Whenever the time should come, he*
would he perfectly ready to offer all tb«
explanation in his power to give so far a»
might be consistent with his duty ami
the public interest. But even at that
early period could not forbear saying,,
that as yc LA he re was nothing whatever
in the relations of this country with, 1
Spain, or any other in Europe, to hold
out, any danger of the renewal of hostil->
ities with That power, or any other.
On .this subject the London Globe a—
dopts the following language ; “ the par
amount interest which naturally attache*
itself to the uneasure now pending in
Parliament has not, however, wholly di
verted the attention of Lord Holland
fromthe great concerns of nations, or
caused him to neglect the political oc-»
currences which influence the happin*?
ess and independence of mankind.”
The London papers state that at least;
300,000 people were assembled on th»
Queen's approach to the House ofLordu
on tin: T 71h August, independent of tln»
ladies and fashionables who crowded the
windows and balconies of the houses of
the streets through which her carriage
passed ; and it is certaiuly siugular, that
amidst such a tumultuous scene, no acci
dent or violence occurred.
A letter from Vienna asserts positively
(hat the cabinet of Austin has resolved U*
interfere in the concerns of Naples, and
that 45,000 troops have been ordered lo
march for Italy.
