There is something very extraordinary in the implied intention of lord Liverpool, to withdraw from the bill of pains and penalties that part which relates to a divorce of the queen, even if found guiltv. Perhaps his lordship fears the recrimination threatened by Mr. Denman. In New-York, it has become fashionable, when a person does not wish to give a direct answer to a question, to say c von mi ricordo' the words so manv thousand times used bv the witnesses ag.iinst the queen of England, in their cross-examination. From the London T ravellrr. We call universal attention to the following alarming.but authentic statement. Milan is the theatre : the persons implicated by it vvc need not name ; nor shall we weaken the impression which it must inevitably make, bv a single word of comment. ki Two persons arrived yesterday at 8 o'clock with despatch- to the queen : they left Milan on the Tth September. Tnev report, that, notwithstanding ail
the professions of impartiality which have been made, and every recognition of Mr. Henry as her majesty's agent, passports were refused to witnesses sum moned on her lofhalf. In consequence of thU, a messenger was dispatched to Vienna, who took a letter to loid Stewart on the subject, and returned on Monday ve'night vv ith an answer, enclosing lord Castlereagh's Icttei to lord Stewart, which it appeared bis lordship had laid before prince Mettemich, who replied that the Austrian government required a letter from her majesty, or from Mr. "roughman, for each witness ; a thing of course impossible, unless her majesty or her attorney general were present tliere. On Wednesday se'night, Mr. Henry applied to get a passport for a Venetian witness. He was told that he must be sent to Venice to pet his passport, and it was not until after remonstrating strongly against such abominable shuffling, and a declaration that Mr. Henry would advise her majesty not to proceed any further in her defence, under such circumstances, that he obtained the passport. None of the military will go as witnesses fo-- the queen, as orders have, been givn forbidding them to wear their uniform the moment they laud in England.
I util tnis restriction is removed, and
until the Austrian government order them to go to England, and moreover
oovince them that they will not suffer
any Joss by it. not one will leave Lom-
bardy."
