It can surprise no person who has attended to the nature of the facts deposed against our gracious, be loved, and gallant Quinn, the means employed to procure their evidence, and the singular constitution of the memories bf all of them, that every effort made by her prosecutors to uphold and support their evi dence, by the cross-examining of the witnesses pro duced to rebut the charges, should make their case break under them more and more ; but it does sur prise every one, not versed in the technicalities of law, to see men who had lamented that their pro fessional duties imposed upon them the hard ne cessity of eihibiting and producing charges of so disgraceful a nature, that none could, or would, rejoice more than themselves, in seeing them com pletely rebutted :—it does, we say, excite much surprise, that men who expressed themselves so feelingly, and seemingly with so much candour, should yet deem it necessary., in support of such charges, to endeavour, by any means whatever, to prevent " the truth, and the whole truth," not only respecting the direct charges, but respecting the character of the witnesses, from being subjected to the severest scrutiny. If truth be the object in view, how can the truth suffer by sifting the charac ter of every witness, as to veracity, to the very bot tom, whatever may be the result as to the moral character and conduct of the witness in any other . respect? We ate willing to confess our great incom petence as to any point of law—especially in a mode of trial unknown to the laws of England—bat we are , neither so bumble nor so diffident, after SO years labour as Public Journalists, as not to pretend to a common share of understanding ; and as there can be no question that the far grriter number of our Readers claim no more knowledge of the laws of procedure, in a Bill of Pains and Penalties, than we do ourselves, we wish only to be understood as appeal ing to common sense, in the view we take of the pro ceedings in the trial which now agitates the Public,' and wrings the hearts even of those who not only pressed it forward, but hoped for an issue very dif ferent from what everything that transpires points out as the inevitable result. Look at the witnesses on the one side,—and then look at those on the other. Look at the convenient memory of the one, and the direct positive testimony of the other. Look at the filth and pollution—No 1 . turn your eyes from the filthiness of the one, and look at the propriety and consistency of the other: Let this be done, and then we ask (not as lawyers), Where is the justice of attempting to skreen a liar by preventing questions irom being put to any witness, in whatever way, or on whatever subject may best unfold and expose his or her true character ? For example—for we shall be best understood by putting a hypothetical, but a very possible case—an unprincipled prostitute chooses, in a trial of a wife for adultery, to swear that she saw the gallant go from his own room to that of her mistress, with a candle in his hand, &c. and then went to her own apartment, where she spent the night alone—no one with her during the night, or any part of the night. It might very naturally be concluded, that, seeing a circumstance so shocking, that if any person were in her room, she would naturally express to that person her surprize and astonishment at what she had witnessed, the moment she entered her own apartment. The possibility of so natural an occur rence would suggest the propriety of putting the ques tion which we have supposed, upon her cross-exami nation ; and, had the question been answered.in the affirmative, the next question would probably have been, " Who was the person in your apartment ?" and the next, " Did you mention to that person the shocking fact which you witnessed r Such ques tions would naturally be put with a view of examin ing the person who was in her apartment, to see if their testimony in any way differed. But - answering that she spent the night alone, it would be next to a miracle that she should be detected in a lie. Let us suppose, however, that by some miracle it is dis covered, before the close of the trial, that she had a gallant with her—that this immaculate, modest chambermaid had a gallant with her that very night. We say, let this be supposed, and then we ask, what would common sense and abstract justice dictate as necessary to be done? To examine the man, to be sure,—if he can be found. Let us suppose that he is found, and is examined, and goes on to state that he was with this maid, that very night, and the door locked upon them ! " Stop,—stop, says Legal Tech nicality, " you must not put any question that may criminate the female witness—the witness not having criminated herself!!" Now this is what common sense revolts at. The witness criminates and swears against another woman—that woman perhaps one of high rook and dignity, but you must purno questions to the man that can make her a liar, for tear you should, forsooth, pore also that she is a ! No matter how foul, how filthy the witness had befbri attempted to make her virtuous mistress, that rn;itress being the one whom the Lawyer bas . fee'd to load with abuse, and, if possible, to convict of adul tery—nothing must be admitted to rebut the charge, but what comes wire-drawn through the levt-gaoge of technicality. Let us not be misunderstand: we are not contending that such a mode of procedure may not be leigally attempted to be sotppoirted by law jargon, and by veep' somul Lawyers too ; but only that the feelings of right and wrong, implanted in every bosom, despises it, and that common sense re fuses to subscribe to its being equity, which is, or ought to be, the aim of every lewd proceeding. But let us extend our hypothetical - case a little far t*, and suppose, that the charges against the ac- - -- Awsma. =- ;..... gpoiw?Flr ;11 'tuna wife do not originate hi mistakes, arising from hasty presumption, founded on mistaken facts butt are the result - of a deflate fotitconipiracy to sum the character of an , innocent and Much injured wo man; and let us suppose that, in the management of the plot, it is thought necessary to get at some dom. meats in the possession of the wife, which would ec pose the prosecutor; that some person, of such high rank as to be placed beyond the suspicion of attempt. ing to corrupt the servants of the one sought to be ruined, abuses the rights of hospitality, and does, by va rious means, procure 'false keys, to gain access to desks and escrutoires ; that the infamous attempt is disco vered; and that one of the servants who knew the fact, and told it to another servant, being bribed to testify lies against his mistress, swears that he cannot recollect anything about that fact : we say, let this case (which, as we have already said, we are only putting hypo thetically) be supposed true, and that the servant to whom be stated the fact comes forward to testify on oath what the other stated to him, that then common sense would say, " Let us by all means hear this new witness; for if, by has testimony, it shall be proved, that in this particular (when the facts were so striking, and their discovery accompanied with such an explo siorr, as could never let them escape the memory of any one who was a party to them), the former wit ness swore to a falsehood, it will be impossible to hold him as a witness whose testimony against his mistress can be credited for a moment."—" Aye, it is so," says Common Sense; but what says Law Tech nicality ? What says the hired Counsel for the sup posed prosecution? " Though I have expressed my earnest wish that the innocence of the accused may be established beyond the power of contradiction, you shall notcalumniate my witness by the examina tion of counter-evidence to - prove him a liar—if I can, by any form of law, prevent you." What would mankind say of such conduct?— Would they believe that the Counsel and prosecutors were in quest of nothing but pure abstract justice? 'Not a man upon earth would believe it. But let us return to the trial of her MAJESTY. It is not possible that such things should occur on this trial as we have supposed, in the hypothetical case which we have been putting, and that for various reasons In the first place, the House of Lords—the Judges in this case —are, in the nature of things, " of Counsel for the defendant," as Judges are in all criminal cases. In the second place, they are the Court appointed to try the cause ; because they cannot be bound by the common legal technicalities of the lower Courts, , which might defeat the ends of justice, but are em. powered, by their high office and privileges, to spurn at every fetter which might prevent them from probing the truth to the bottom. In the third place, the fundamental reason of the cause being taken under the cognizance of this tri bunal is, because the proceedings in a Bill of Pains and Penalties are anomalous—unknown to the laws of England—and therefore it is indispensably neces sary that those who judge in it should not be fettered •by precedents drawn from cases to which our laws do apply ;—a contrary procedure would involve an absurdity. In the fourth place.—Their Lordships are the high guardians of the Royal Family :—not of one member only, but of every branch and member of it :—as much bound to protect the QUEEN, as they are the Kis° ; and that by every means calculated to elicit truth, in spite of every conspiracy and of every legal "nibble; for, in this, their o ffi ce is to insure justice in the abstract, as they shall answer to both parties, TO THEIR COUNTRY, and TO GOD. In the fifth place, the Counsel for the prosecution —for a prosecution we must call it—are not, neces sarily, counsel against the Queen. In no common criminal, or penal case even, is the Counsel for the prosecution a party, or conceived to have the feel ings of a party against the tried. It is his duty to state what he thinks (from his brief) he can prove, and not one word more ; to examine and make the most of his evidence; and, in addressing the Jury, to offer no inference that has not been established by evidence :—if be-do otherwise, he plays the part of a villain, and disgraces his profession. His profes- Mona' duty goes no farther than we have stated ; and for an obvious reason—his office of Counsel takes not from him the character of a citizen, bound to oak justice—pure abstract justice—to offer no im pediment that can defeat this object. We remember an Exchequer case—many years ago—in which the present LORD CHANCELLOR was Counsel against a person charged with defraud ing the revenue of duty on the manufacture of paper. The writer of this article was summoned as a Jury man, and was-present. The Counsel for the defend ant used expressions imputing, or conceiving to have, imputed to the Counsel for the Crown, a deviation from his duty as a public prosecutor, in the manner in which punishment was invoked—inasmuch as, in that character, be was bound, as much as the Coun sel for the defendant, to prevent any punishment, if, bona fide, the defendant did not merit it. We can never forget the honest but meek indignation with which the charge, or supposed charge, was repelled. The principle laid down by the opposing Counsel was admitted in its utmost latitude ; and he hoped the day would never arrive in which he should for get that, as a public officer, he owed protection even to those whom he was called on to prosecute. It was no part of his duty, by any subtlety, to fix crime upon the Innocenti He was evidently greatly moved while he spoke ; and the pathos with which he deli vered himself, produced similar feelings in all who beard him. But to the subject properly before us.—For an of these reasons, and others that might be adduced, it will be inferred by all who consider the high cha racter of every individual of the House of }Niers, for independence, fidelity, probity, honour, and morality, and who is properly informed respecting the high legal attainments and unimpeachable character of his MAJICSTY'II ATTORNEY and SOLICITOR.GENZILAL, that in the important cause now going on,- none of the Old Bailey practices will be amalgamated with those principles of equity and abstract justice which should regulate the proceedings of those who are as much bound in, the eyes of Ten, and before that IMMACULATE BEING, who " regarded) not the persons of Ten," to render justice and protection to ow be- Mirw.'6"'r" ~~~ loved and gracious Qum, as to our gracious an, Kim. But to conclude, we beg to call the attention ot. the Public—and particularly that of the House of Peers, to a very important fact. The enemies of the Qutxx have talked much about a masked ball— about her being there in a Turkish dress—and BER cum being there also in a Turkish dress... Their ob ject in all this cannot be mistaken: it was to convey the insinuation—or rather to offer this fact as proof —that this dress was assumed to favour an intrigue. But " mark how a plain tale shall put them down," This dress, of all others that could be devised, v,•; 11 thelast that could have been thought of for such an object. It is really distress i ng-..at this time of day too—when not a word deposed against the QuEstr is believed by any person whatever to be obliged to foul our pages with such filth but how can it be avoided when, notwithstanding the incalculable mischief that has already been done to public morals, by the spread of such contami nating grossness, the Counsel for the prosecution keep pressing for proof of what neither the QUEEN nor any of her friends have attempted to deny—that her MAJESTY was on that occasion in a Turkish dress: but they would insinuate more, and .what success at tended their last attempt? look at Sir WILLIAM DELL'S evidence. At the instance of the SOLICITORa- GENERAL, the LORD-CHANCELLOR asked SirWILLIAst whether, when the PRINCESS appeared in the Turkish dress she did net wear trowsers? " I happen to know what the trowsers were," said Sir WILLIAM " and I beg to explain them—(Explain, explain).—They are very much like the common petticoat, but used be tween the legs at the bottom!!"—A most convenient dress truly, as the SOLICITOR-GENERAL himself must allow, for effecting that for which, according to the prosecutors, the dress was assumed. One of the Noble witnesses for the Queen has stated, that it is usual for Ladies of rank in Italy to see company in their bed-chambers. If our Readers will turn to The Spedator, Vol. I. No. 45, they will see that this, no long time ago, was the fashion in England. " What course will Ministers pursue, now that it is manifest they have been duped by the Milan agents or their witnesses, or both ?" isa question in every per son's mouth, and the conjectures on this point are various. It is the opinion of many that Ministers have resolved to get rid of the Bill in one way or other ; and that either Lord LIVERPOOL will stand forward himself, and say that Minister; were de ceived ; or that the task will be thrown on Lord LONSDALE, or some other of their friends, to move " That this Bill be read a second time this day six months I" It is hoped, however, that in justice to the Iligh Personage who has been so foully slAndered, they will not propose any step of this kind till her MA- Jesty's evidence, respecting what passed in the po lacre and at Trieste, has been heard ; And in contra diction of &cell is testimony. We understand that a Cabinet Council wits held yesterday at Windsor, attended by cll the Ministers, • except Mr. CANNING and Lotd BATHURST. Of course the hopeful trial was one of the principaltopica under consideration ; but nothing has transpired re specting it.—We now proceed to lay before our Readers the proceedings on THE SIXTH DAY OF THE DEFENCE. HOUSE OF LORDS. . Their Lordships met this morning at the usual hour. The Loan CRANCRLLOR took his seat on the Woolsack a few tithauses before ten o'clock.
