The Lord Unas;calms* then syse and stated, that the motion he was to propose to thcl r t•ordships was, that Coansel be called in and inforased t Ira t if they decided upon entering upon the statement of their case, they must proceed to the close of their oaten; tnt, and to pro siness the whole of the roofs in support • ;I it; but that if they should chose, the House was ready to adjourn for a reasonable period, to afford them time to be prepared with the whole of their case. • Lord LAN%DOWNI then rose and stated, Oat now he had come to a cher understanding of the whohs case, he must say, that this communication proposed to the Bar at this period of the proceedings was the most vsnadvis able and the most unusual that he ever heard pt 'emoted in that Mouse. hoped the Counsel would not enter lot" anY such argirment--they ought not to do so i tier to their client, and he felt convinced, that there was not one amongst the Counsel at their Lordships' Aar who would Five into it. Could env thing he inure aH u mini than tor a Court of Justice, atter having proposed its own proceedings, to instruct Counsel how they were to meet those proceedings—to tell thrum to stop or to go , on as they chose.—((hear, hear!)—To call Counsel to the, Bar and tell them you shall make no application as to tittle that you may want, and you shall take such and such a course of proceeding without any regard to the swore of your case, or the varying course of . justice.— Their Lordships on the other han d were to bind them selves to dose their ears to justice. Ile had thought that they had been obliged to hear enough of the dis graceful proceeding in this matter, but he must for one most strenuously protest against the Protocol con cluded between the House and the Confess.' at the Jra —(clear, hear.)—They had admitted the comment of the Solicitor-I:eternal with a pre-determination that his case should then close without any reply. It was the legiti. mate, the necessary object of this comment to give a bias and to enforce the impression already made by the evi dence, and yet the Noble Lord opposite, called it holding the scales of justice equally.—(llear.)—What sort of' a ease tonal theirs' be when they were afraid to have one day's comment from the other side, tacked to this motorist.—(Cheers.) The FArl of CARNARCON allowed that their Lordships were placed in circumstance. of great difficulty, in con /nut nee of their having refused to grant her Alajesty a list f the witnesses, and a specification of the clearers obe preferred against her. Had that refusal nut taken place, and had a proper time been allowed to the Counsel for her .11ajesty, to prepare her defence, their Lordships was dip have been enabled to proceed in a way analogous to the usual forms in all courts of justice. The odor ' Innate derision to which lie alluded Ilasl been the fruit fill parent of a multitude of evils. lle was far, however, from thinking those evils would he asnrieded by ado mt ' tug the coarse recommended by his Noble Friend who had just sat down. On the contrary, unjust and ammo*. lons as in his opinion hail been the refusal of their lased sh;ps to afford a list of witnesses, and a specification of the charges, it would be ten times more unjust and anomalous to permit the l'imusel against the Bill to open the case for the defence, and then to defer the calling the evidence by which the allegations of that eine Its.el• he substantiated. For the refusal o f the list of sitn eAs ee and the q iemicatNni 40( lIIN chayggs,• a delay had been conceded as an.Asikitleut, and if the Counsel were then to apply for that 'Rely, he conceived that the House had no right to jefuse them. They should be prepared to perform their promise, namely, to give to the Counsel suds delay as the circumstances of the case, in reason. required. The present. however, was the time when the Counsel should lir called upon to I make their election. Some dim cultymight arise from suf fering any delay to be interposed between the hearing of Our and of the other site, and for that evil their Lordships alone were reel tide. The evil was one of choler, not of necessity ; they acre placed in that situation by their own decision; hut since they were placed there they leave a duty to perform. A rase lad already been gone through ; evidence had been produced—ex-parts evi dence, it was true, and as such by no means decisive hut it was neither consistent with reason or justice, that the impression which that evidence made, should 1w met by assertion, and that such assertion should be conclusive to their Lordships anal to the country for months, without proof or evidence being adduces' in its support. Was it not possible, was it not certain, frost the attempts that load already been made in truss-exa• ee iee ation, that the case on thr other side wink! go forth, involving in a charge of perjury all the witnesses, anal many persons, high in rank and respectability, in floe charge of subornation of perjury. Had they not been told, that the case on the part of the prosecution was a foul conspiracy ? and could they permit a 'ldeater to be made which would rankle the public mind by such charges, for two or three months without proof, as it could only originate in an attempt -Spargere vote', In vulgum ambigua,. Anil he trusted, that they would never permit what could not produce an effect upon their minds to go elsewhere, where its effect might be attended with the most perni cious consequences. The Lord CHANCELLOR explained. Lord CALTHORPECOUId not give his vote upon the present occasion, without stating the gronnds on which it was founded. He thought the arguments of tlee Noble Lord, forcible as they were, were chiefly founded upon analogy with the Courts below. Ile believed nsost sin cerely, that ifthere was any otiething which commanded more public respect than another, it was the administration of justice in the %tarts below. Anil it appeared to him that their Lordships should never deviate f their course, without the strongest ground to proceed on. A double cross-examination had beets allowed the Counsel fur the defence, as ten equivalent for their not leaving list of witnesses, and it had been seen how sparingly they had used that which had been so granted. Ile tiumght their Lordships could not furnish the indulgence which had been asked for; but if what had been asked for were allowed, he hoped that it would he recorded on the journals of the House, that it should not stand as a precedent. Lord REDESEALE snpported the proposition of the Lord Chancellor, and said that the indulgence required by the Counsel for the Bill was not only impractica ble, but if' it could be conceded, would make the must vicious precedent which in any of its proceedings that House had ever adopted. Ho argued, also, whether the original proceedings ought to have been by im peachment, and referred to the opinion of Lord Somers, who was mainly instrumental its bringing about the Revolution of 1688, as an authority. Lord DARNLEY said lee was sure that whatever might he the opinions of their Lordships, all would be inclined to concede what had been asked, rather than to deny it. lie should certainly out agree to the motion. If Coco- PRICE SZVEN PENCE:. sel were rowelled now to proceed with what evidence was ready, and the rest should not arrive soon enough to continue the defence, then they could not in justice refuse time. lle could not conceive upon whet analogy or principle their Lordships could deny the reqnest to divide the time of receiving evidence, when they bad already granted the same allowance with respect to a. cross-monination. Their Lordships were undoubted ly in much difficulty, they had been so from the bc • ginning; but all those difficulties might have b eet avoided if they had not unfortunately adopted, in the tint instance, a vicious course of proceeding. lt would have been wise, it would have been most fortunate, 'f the case hail never been stirred at all: it was a cala mitous case to the country, their Lordships felt it W • they set there from day to day under the absolute cer tainty that no good could result from what they were doing, but, on the contrary, much inconnuience met I public misfortune. It was, however, his consolation. and the consolation of the friends who acted with him. that they had done all in their power to prevent this proceeding. The Lotto CHANCELLOR then put the question, anti strangers were ordered to withdraw. Contents Nou•Cuntents 165 6J Majority . . . 105 The LORD CHANCELLOR informed the Counsel of the decision of the House. Mr. BROUGHAM shortly asked perniission to comment ou the evidence which had been adduced on the part of the Crown, pledging himself not to describe or make ton slightest allusion tu the evidence intended to be brungbt fore and by her Alujesty. The Loan CISANIALLOR %aid, strictly speaking, bis was the same as what had before been asked. Lord EasittNr. said their Lordships had perm:tt-i the Solicitor-fieneral to sum up the evidcn. e for Ole Crown, and he could not conceive on what gro• u t.l they would refuse to the Counsel of her Majesty, with out opening the trvidence, to comment on the testimony of the witnesses produced in support of the Bill. It had, indeed, been said, that such a course was unusual —why, the whole proceeding w tt:ta•-'al, it had so parallel ;to say that what he aslictl :: as unusual, was saying little indeed ; they could not a; tme that it :vs.. ▪ demand contrary to the spirit of ji:,tiee. 1:0e1; tg that it was a demand which ought to be arectirti he svmhl move that Counsel for her 3144.-ty be now *Moved to comment anti observe cm the et•idt•nt e Tra duced iu support of the Bill of Pains and Penaies against her. . . .

(TWENTIETH I'm) (Speech of Earl CRii continued front the Statesman of yestertl.ty.) He called on their Lonlships to view tlw case in all its bearings. The whole of the evidence has been gone through, and the speech of the Solicitor-lieneral has been heard, in which he states, that the case has been made oat; he has brought the evidence awl case to a point ; and then he concludes by complaining that lie could not possibly anticipate the line of defence whirl, the Counsel on the opposite side proposed to adopt. All this has been done, and he called on them in the spirit of British law, in the spirit of British justice, and in the name of common lounan;tc, not to give all the ad vantages to the accuser. and deprive the accused of that protection which the humane spirit of the British law always affords them.—(load ehms.)—.lml how have these disadvantages been created ? By your own act. fly the introduction of that Bill of Pains and Penalt:es, ' a measure completely anomalous to the constitution, and which he hoped would n-ver be cited as a precedent. —(lkar, hear.)—Yon have itufortunatrly embarked In that Mal hnrk, Built in the Eellper, and fraaiht wit!' esirrea dark•" (Loud and continued cheering.)-11rre the Noble Lord teferred to the decision, which was made by Lord Ellen borough in the case of Lord Coe lotat.e, whose name, although he lamented that dec;sion, he should always regret, but that derision was never mentioned in the presence of his dearest friends without regret. Ilere the Noble Lord concluded a most powerful and ahle speech., by calling on their Lordships in the spirit of British Justice and hettnarrite, not to &pier the wens al el tiles g advantages, to whirl, in the contemplation of the law, she was entitled. _ Lord Ltvutroot rose with some warmth, and said that before he would touch the main question. he should say a word respecting the assertion of the Noble and Learnril Lord, that their Lordships had brought themselves into this difficulty hr refusing the list of witnesses and the specification of tier times and places. He never would bear that assertion made in that !louse without repelling it. His Lordship then proceeded at some length to de lend the refusal of the lists in question, and analogized the rase to that of impeachment, in which the list was' never given, and in which the Quern, had she been im peached, would have !wen tinder much greater difficulties than those of which she now complained. In short, his Lordship said, in no case whatever was the list ever given ; hut in that of High Treason, the law of which stood precisely on its own peculiar ground. Ile &Med that the charge in this case was too general. The name of the person was given with whom the faience oas al !Aged to have been co 11111 l itted, and thr charge was al together as specific as die case allowed it to he. Ile affinitied that an interval would be proper, iu oriledthat the Queen might prep. • for her defence; but who could reasonably say, that that interval ought to he in the middle of - the defence itself? Ile would, however, collie at once to the essence of the question, and he con fessed lie should be glad to be informed whether any comparison could be made between the in convenience of the delay, and that which would attend a departure from the tiles of puhlie justice. After paying a compliment to the highly respectable character of the Queen's Counsel, he proceeded to observe, that if the course they wished were permitted, the rase of the accusation woold go forth to the world, with all die cross-examination awl all the sifting of the evidence, and with it the mere speech of the Counsel, not a syl lable of which might perhaps he rapsble of proof. The case they might state as a defence, might be purely ima ginary ; and yet, it would go forth to the world, in the company of the case of accusation, examined as it was, cross-examined, re-examined and sifted as it was to the very bottom. Ile would admit the inconvenience to the Queen of the casco( the Atturneystaleneral remaining for two months unexplained and uncontradicted. Ile would admit the inconvenience ; lie would give in the general argument as much as that argument was worth, and yet he would say that the request of the Queen's Counsel could not, with any appearance of justice, be as-ceded to. The noire it was grappled with, the more untenable it appeared. If the Counsel were prepared to go on with their case at present, let them do it ; if not, and they desired an adjournment, they should he told that the house was ready immediately to grant them that adjournment. He saw no other course their Lord ships could pursue ; there was no medium between these two propositions—either that the Counsel should di reedy proceed and continue to the close of their case, or that their Lordships should • ediately adjourn. Hut lie most positively declared, that according to his notions of justice and impartiality they could not allow the de fence to he divided. Lord Lis:snow:es did not understand what was pre cisely the motion before the House, and he begged the Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack, to give him information as to what lie conceived to be the question for the consideration of the House. The Loan CHANCKLLIOR said, that he understood the proposition of the Noble Lord (Liverpool) was, that Connsel should be called in and asked as to the course they desired to pursue with respect to them. A conversation ensued between Lords Oast and Ll vsaroot., which was carried on across the table, and was totally inatadilsle below the liar; after which there was a pause of several minutes, duringwkich time Lord ABUNDANT thowtsr IN AMERICA. (From the New York Papers last reetgred.) Acrounts from various sections of oar country repre- sent the harvest for all kinds of grain and segytable, to he very abundant. We learn from 111 Ohio papii- of ti r Imth aJnly, that the farms thoughout Ohio are , teernin :: with altunaance. The crops of wheat are very great. and of a most excellent qnality; indeed they ate heavy and extensive, that it is apprehended some of it will perish on the ground for want of labourers to sell!, it. Seperline Flour has been sold in Cincinnati for 25 per barrel, in good mo.ley. The paper above spoken of recommends the fa -tners to increase their stock of cattle to help to devour the grain ; and ¶notes the maxim, " he that multiplies cattle spins gold. _ On Monday last, being the charter day for the elec• tion of the Corporate Officers for the borough of 1.:a1.- rhester, a very severe struggle took place between the blue and orange interests, when the latter prevailed by a considerable majority, and immediately filled up the important offices of Mayor, Magistrates, Coroner-, Claviers, and Town Serjeants, for the year ensuing.— It is nearly a century since the Corporation were de feated in these appointments. Mr. Harvey was pre sent, and with Mr. Baring, gave pubiic entertain ments to the Burgesses. This victory is considered by the independent party as decisive of the twe seats in their favour whenever a general election occurs. i 1 -
