The certificate fert to the years 1812, If! 13, and 1314; but it is dated in the latter end rf 1814 and we are told in the next sentence, tNat it was tin Qieen who obtained the title of Huron for Prini, after 1815; it f.illo there tore, thrt the litie Saron in the certificate, must reter to tna rank actuated by l'ernmi ai the time when ih certificate was given, and not as to his having been a Barrn when he served with the Austrian armr, th' ee years before.

Her Majesty soon dis overed in M.

This is one of Urn most extraordinary passages which, by way of a defence, we have ever met with. And let us hare recall to tho reader's serious attention the repeated evidences which a rise that this defence comes from the qneen herself, or from some one in her intimate ronfiJence. She became particularly interested in him long experience tnerented her eileem." Who could tell that, but the queen herself? The of her esteem, anyone could tell, but its secret moire none could tell but the heart which had felt it. She did every tiling in her power to maikAer tetue of his attachment." Who conld talk or write thus but the queen herself? a her person and interests" We stop 111 a mazement at these avawals, and leave them, without a comment, to the judgment of the reader.

On her return to Italy, too, she took two or his brothers as well as his sister into her service. M. Louis Pergami presided over her household, Mr. Sicard having returned to and M. Vollotti Pergami, formerly under prefect at Cremona, was the comptroller other Add these circumtances to the rest, and tee how they strengthen the mass of presumptive proof: one Pergami might be hired, promoted, ennobled, decorated but one, two, three, four Pergamis foh it smells to heaven The minion Somerset did less, ar.d the minion Buckingham did no more, for their families, who were fit least British gentlemen and ladies and there is nothing uncommon, forsooth, in this promiscuous promotion of every thing that bears the name of Pergami Such appear to be the real state offhefarfs with regard to this individual; and if nothing more be proveif, we confess that we can see no tliing itiber majesty's conduct which is not con ist nt with every day's occurrences.

All she hailnoe has been to bestow just rewards upoo a faithful and honorable servaut." Hrerji day's occurrences We believe that, since tiie world began, such a series of occurrences never before took place. Have the most infamous favorites whom historv records advanced tbemlve and their families so suddenly, so generally Did the guilty Dorothea tJo any thins; tike this for Konigsmark Did the unhappy Mry coufer dignities and orders on the Itali Rizzio, and did she surround herself with his family to the exclusion of her own subjects Did the imprudent Matilda lavish such prodigality of favor on Htruenzee and his relatives? Whatever motive may hereafter be shown to have actuated the queen, let not her, or her advocate, persuade themsrlves that her conduct has been an rrerv daifs occurrence." Her maj'ttyVs travels emhraced a route of great extent and variety, mm Genoa, she repaired to the We of Elha from thence to Sicily. She there crossed over to Barbary, Mid subse quently visited Palestine, Jerusalem. Carthage, Ulicn, and Athens, the went to and landed on sereral of the islands in the Archipela go; she returned by Rhodes and Syracuse to Naples, and proceeJed from Naples to Rome. During the whale of this journey, her course was marked by a scries of the most generous ami humane actions, by which she supported not a lone br own dignity, but maintained tlie high character of the nation with which she was so in timatcly connected." We trust we shall he excused for saving that we nererhc ard before of any generous and hu ine action, performed by the queen, either a broad orat hmnn.

We never heard ef any po verty relies but that of the Pergamis never heard of any merit rewarded, but that of the Ter gamis never heard of any generosity shown, but to the Pergami ami so far front her having in her travels maintained the high character of England, we happen to know from our own experience, that she has lowered and degraded it in the eyes of Kurope. We do not say whether her actions were such as ought to have that ef fect we only speak as to the fact asserted by this Jelfnce, avhich lact is notoriously false I he opinion of (he world may be just or unjust we are not now argniugfAff but that in point of far the natimal character has in tne eyes of the world, we repeat, and every Englishman who has been lately in Italy, or the Levant, will corroborate our assertion. let us ask why the writer conceals the queen's strange visits to the Barbary Courts, and with a cautious and deMgned falsehood, endeavors to excuse the expedition, by the introduction of the classical names ef Carthage and Utica This suppresion of a well known truth, gives cnuutenance to the rumours which have een circulated relative to these extraordinary visits. One cannot help smiling in the midst of all this dis. gnsting trash, at the notion of a lady so sin it with admiration of the severe and moral Cato, as to make a pilramage to I'tim, and so uolui kv as to find, instead ol Utica and Cato, only lha Dey of Algiers In the psalms of that very sacred day, on which this defence was published, are to be found these two remarkable verses "Thou tnakest us to be rebuked of otir neigh bours; to be laii jh.nl to scorn, and had in derision of them that arc round almut us." Thou makrst us to be a by word among the heathen, and that the people shake their heads at us." Psalm 41.

We shall now pa's over all the circumstan ces whi.h occurred alter her majesty's return in Europ, with the intention of reverting to the suhjert in nur next publication. We shall only add, that M. Pergami continued in her majesty's service down lo her departure St. Omer's, the particulars of which we have long since stated. He travelled with her majesty from Pesaro, leaving behind him his wife aud sisters, but bringing with him his daughter an amiable child seven years of nge, whom her majesty haJ adopted, and to whom she was particularly partial from its extraordinary acquirements at so early an The Oid Titres asserted, that the supposed con nexion with Pergami would produce more laughter throughout all Europe th any thing which has occurred since the beginning of the French revolution and other advocates have enlarged upon this hint, a if Pergami were physically incable of committing the crime.

This filthy insinuation would, if true, have made the matter more disgusting, but would hardlyj have white washed the delicacy of the parties; but it is now formally disavowed Pergami it married and has a daughter, who naturally shares in the favoor with which the queen regards that entire family. This interesting pntcct of her majesty was perfect mistress ol French and Italian, aud had no inconsiderable kill in music and other fashionable accomplishments, urh wat her natural attachment to her however, that she could not be in lnced to acrnniimny her majesty to England, aud returned wi'Ji her father to Italy." It was surmised thftt te termer communications to the paper whi i this defence, were made ty Mr. Alderman Wood, and if we hare little doubt that he his al t.ee.i channel of publishing the present article. We are the rather of tins opinion, forlbe word pro instead of 'rnrrf, "savours of know of French which induced the Aldrnu.in 1 to put on his veiling cards at Paris "y'eu Lord Slavorde Londres." The Alderman at least hat not, like Pergami, the gift of several laa gmge. In person, M.

Pergami is a man of altont five feet elernn inches in height, of a military aspect, mustarnios and whisker, dark cnminVx iost and eye, ofbv'd, Inst agreeable countenance. "tu1f'rm of this sort Z. ri'wnTu it. Observe should venture to paWish the Words military ther teem to to te intro duced to give a color to the hint about the Elat and to lead us to suppose that rerganu was a military man. A private soldier.for aught wa know, be may have been 1 out from tna si lence of these very memoirs, we venture to re dirt, it will be found that be naver was an Officer.

His manners are unaffected and graceful, and hit attentions lo the Queen were respectful. He dined at the same table with her Majesty, and took a strong interest in all the affairs of ber household. He is about forty years of age." Her Majesty treats the charges of her sup posed impure connexion with this man with a proper feeling of indignation, but, at the same lime, with ridicule and contempt. She maintains tho greatest confidence that she shall be able to prove her innocence, and make the ma chinations ol her enemies recoil upon tnemseives. Her Majesty has written to upwards of a hundred respectable individuals of the first rank in Italy, to request their attendance during the approaching investigation." Again we have here an exposion of the Queen's sensations, feelings, and private actions, which could only come from hcrscll, and which seems to estaLluii her connexion with this unhappy defmcf.

The accusers of her Majesty have not been less active in their preparations. Couriers have been constantly passing through Calais on their way to Italy and on Thursday, eleven or twelve foreigners of btggarty appearance landed at Dover, who were stated to be witnesssed against the Queen. The beggarly appearance of tlie witnesses if true, would tend to shew, that these poor people were not suborned and, let it be observed, that if the witnesses are foreigners, it is, because the crimes are alledged to have been committed in foreign parts and, uecn, avow. edly, had none but foreigners about her and if they are poor, it may lie. because, by associating herself with the Pergani, she effectually eiclu.

dedfrom hersoriety all the wealthy and the no ble. Iay, before these poor witnessos have pned their mouths, the very circumstances of their being the witnesses, is ot some weight a gainH the Queen. Over and over again, in our criminal proceeding at home, we have seen the strongest impression created against a prisoner, by showing that he had taken paius to remove persons who would have been the fittest, the most natural, and most trust worthy witnesses of his coudu' anil we hardly recollect a Cnm. Con. case, in which the facts have not been prov ed by permi in a low station of life.

All the better class of the offender's society are general ly sent out of the way, and the trial, ol course, turns on tlie evideuccs of persons of inferior stations. We made this ohservMinn generally, and not meaning to assert (lor we know nothing about it) that the witneses are all poor Italians. From the nature of the case it is likely to be so but by accident it may hapjien, that persons of higher rank and credit may also have some information to give but whether this be so or not, the question must finally be, not the person, but the en dence; not the man, hut the fact and certainly uone of those wituesses can be poorer or mean er, or more Italian, than Pergami himself, the hero of the whole transai tion. The inhabitants of Dover assembled round them, and began to hiss and groan with great vi olence. The trre'ehed party were with difficulty placed in post chaises, and to avoid interruption, which was anticipated on tke road, thrvtook the route through Folkrtoue, Hythe, and Maidstone.

Other witnesses have arrived in town, and remained the whole of Friday at the Blossom's Inn, Lawrence lane 1 hey are of the lowest order, and said they were waiting for Mr. Cooke. It is said, that an attorney of Milan was with them he assisted Mr. Cooke, and Mr. Powell, and was a man in low circumstances but since th Milan commission, drives a carriage." Observe the inconsistency of this defence.

Some of tlie witnesses are wretches, incredible on account of their poverty, and here is another of them incredible on account of bin affluence. His affluence may be sudden, bnt is it more snd den than Pergami's Such insinuations come with a bad grace from Pergami's admirers and defenders. But this Milanese attorney has been heard to say, "that he had the Crown of England in his pocket," an expression not very complimentary to our national character, it must be admitted yet it may be true, and if it be true, who put the crown in this man's pocket? He friquently went about Milan, saying he had the crown of England in his pocket." We have reason to believe, that when the charge against her Majesty comes to be investigated, that it will appear perfectly absurd. Rumors are publicly afloat on tins subject, to which we cannot properly allude, hut which it is generally suposed are not without foundation." know not to what this can allude, unless it he to the filthy supposition before mentioned, in this very defence, already refuted. We shall not soil our paper with any inquiries into such a suljcct what juetice requires, we must hear but shame be to those who thoir cunoi ty, or open thrir ears, beyond what the severity ol legal intestigation adsolutely requires.

1 was not bv the same hand which wrote ui rest 1. 1 i 1 1 1. of the memoir. We hare now completed our examination of this paper, and wc are much deceived if we have not shown, out of its own expressions, that it mnst hare been written by the queen, or some person in her immediate confidence, and iu this case, we will venture lo add, that it contains a body of presumptive proof against that unfortunate ladv, on which any jury would find a verdict in the court of king's bench. The very best that eoold be said of the conduct therein described is, that it was highly suspicious and clearly indelicate, derogatory, and indefensible, cither with regard to private or to public statinu.

If, on the other hand, the facts stated in this document are false if the deductions are unauthorised by the Queen; in short, if she denies its truth, and disavows i's publication then, we hare only to lament, that some malevolent enemy has so artfully constructed this fabrication, that it bears every internal mark of comiugfrom her. Our observalinns are solely direr tad a gainst that Paper, and if it benot what it so bold ly, and yet so artfully, affects to be, then it and tins reply willlall into the same oblivion and lie jlect tut if it tie genuine, we must leave the public to judge, whether it does not deserve the character we have given it and whether, if what is there admitted be proved bffore tlie House of Ltrdc, there will be much difficulty in passing the Divorce Bill. This is ceriain, that there is not a session in which both Houses of Parliament do not pa. Lilts of this nature on circtidistantial evidence, much le.s cogent than that which this defence so injudiciously furnishes. TUESDAY, AUGUST 29.

We finish the remarks on the Memoirs of the Queen, in this evening's paper and we shall only remark that they are, io our opinion, more calculated to disparage her than any thing wr have yet seen. We perceive from the following report, that the apprehensions which we lately rxpretsed, thit the yellow fever would spread in Phildel pf.I'inl, at lent, 'till more measures were 'retorted" to, were but too wen foundeC. vj tlie ill odgKl policy of concealing the first cases, in the boots that they should be able to arrest the further progress of the disease, it hat been suffered to acquire a head, which now threatens a large portion of the ity. HEALTH OFFICE, Philadelphia, Auj. 27.

Four new cases of malignant fever, on the east side of Front street, above Walnut street, have been reported to the Board of Health, for the last 24 hours, ending thit day at 4 o'clock, P. M. all in the infected district. One of the above cases has been sent to the city hospital. The Board of Health resolved, that where one or more physicians attend on any patient, wliose case it is oecesary to report, that they severally sign the certificate.

Extract from the minutes. JOSEFH PRYOR, Clerk of the board of Health. PHILADELPHIA, August 28. Two new cae of yellow fever have been reported to the board ofJiealth this morning, aud one othi yet known to exist, all io the infected district. Mr.

Noah is in error in supposing that the resident physician designated the disease of Williams as yellow fever. It was sufficient for that oificcr to know that the man was sick of fever, was a straner, and, as stated by Williams himself, that he had come from Philadelphia, and hud srossly violated tho law. In that case Dr. Hosai consulted tl security of the city, which committed to his care, by sen ling Williams to the Quarantine, as we understand he has done several others, without waiting for the develope ment of the disease, or the causes from whirh it 1 1 i. may have proceeded.

Long experience has, taught us that delays are dangerous we have no idea that a resident physician should stand speculating on the precise uaturo of the disease, when his duty imperatively requires he should act promptly. Rates of carta'. On Monday evening next, Sept. 4, it is understood the corporation are to consider and establish the rates of cartage aud in the mean tune we have seen published a committee, the promised reduction of prices on which, at the request of several of that numerous body of citizens, we male a few remarks, and submit them to the consideration of the Board. I take it, the professed intention of the respectable committee, who have the subject nnder consideration, was to reduce the present prices, which were established in 1817, and! which mostly were advanced lor the purpose cf meeting the extraordinary state of the currency at that time, to the sums at which they stood antecedent to that period.

But, if so, the present repoit so f.r deviates from that object, that in many important items, the reduction extend' far beyond what Ihe old prices were, as well as far beyond what is reasonable or jut. Cotfon, for instance, is reduced to cents for 3 bales or a load, but the old price was 3s. Household fur niture to 44 cents a load but it was always 4s and dearly earned. Hoops in bundles 2, and hoop poles 2s Gd, but formerly (by whicl mean previously to 1817) there was no uiftrtic tion between these two items, and 3s was the price allowed for each. For every 2009' cypress shingles, 22 inches, 3s.

Here one quarter is added to the common load. Fifteen hundred is always considered a fair load. In the same manner, 2s only is allowed for a load of heading or staves, whereas 3s was always the customary price. Some persons, indeed, have fancied, that in this attempt to reduce the cartage on lumber they saw the hand of the chairman of the committee, who is a large dealer in that article, and consequently has a direct interest in reducing the cartage but far be such suspicions from my mind respecting any honorable member of the common council of thit renowned city. Aud when envious and jealous persons have sometimes talked of an ordinance inakiDg it unlawful for anv members to be concerned, either diiect ly or indirectly, in any contract, bargain or speculation, relating to Ihe cily or streets or build ing, I have always repelled the idea with proper indignation, be cau.

I was sure no rcspecla ble individual of so' honorable a body would be concerned in sue a mercenary, dirty job. But to proceed Every 3 barrels of oil and potash is put at formerly it was Is, a barrel. A load of paints, beef, pork, tar, pile or tur rent ne, but it was always 2s 6d I That of a pipe of gin, wine or brandy, is now proposed to be reduced to 3s, it was always 4s. There is a sweeping clause to the report, that in all cases not enumerated 2s is to be the allowance. This would oblige the carman to take a load of sails or timber or a large millstone or grindstone or an anchor, for less than it would cost the carman himself for extra labor.

In short, without fur ther enumeration, the report will bo found to be in several particulars disproportionate and par tial and will, we hope, be recommitted and re considered, before it is finally adopted. P. 6. Tho rates of chimney sweepers also want rcvL'inzand reducing. Two slight shocks of an earthquake were felt at Lancaster, Pa.

DIED, At West Point, on tlie 28th inst. Andrew Elli cott, professor of Mathematics at the Military Academy, aged 67. He was one of the few men our country, who at the period of his youth, had made any considerable advances iu the Mathematical sciences. These, be coutiuued to admire, and cultivate during life but to 110 particular branch was he so much devoted, as te practical Astrouomy. In this, he was irceini iient, both in the expert nse of Instruments, and tlie accuracy of bis ci.lculati.ios, which were tha results of his observations.

'J lie reputation which he gained for those rare, and peculiar acquirements, was evinced by the number aud frequency of his appoint nicnts, both by individual states, aud the United States, for the purjiose ol adjusting tuch boundary lines as depended on the most nice Astronomical observations.
