BAKING proposed a dowse, auther,sin the slagistrates, iu Quarter bei•sious assembled, Mr. Goukutioss said, lie was anxious to hear the Petition teed, before lie ' , leered any obseivations ins it. At the same tine, there was, he conceived, sufficittot ui the speech of the llon. Gentleman who presewed it, to sbew, that, whatever were the services of Count Won, or wles',ever were the inju ries lie complained of, the legal course of inquiry ought nut to he interfered oith by the House of Como . If lie miderstaiiil the Honourable Gentleman rightly, Count Lailan had cause of complaint against an individual who, sonse time since, had tilled nu important situation in the fouls"! Islands, Lind was now resident here. That Gentleman was, it appeared, accwed or ittrious offences—but, he would undertake to say, none of them was cogilizable iii that House. If ht had caused to he executed an iiinocelit individual, he was guilty of murder—and surely the House uf Commons was not the place where such an accusation was to be noticed. He was not acquaiiited with Gelieral Campbell; and, therefore, lie could not be supposed to speak from versional feeling. This was hot wee-tifth of the accusations the 11 5 etitiouer preferred against General Campbell—but, if they were well-founded, he was sure uo difficulty would be experienced in procuring justice. The Peti tioner asserted that lie had the power of proving those charges. If that were the fact—if he had evidence ready, the House of Commons was not the place where he sliatild prefer Irs complaint. There were .tribunals, ni the lonian Wands, where his accusations would' lie heard—and, if lie could prove his charges there, plionshinent would follow. He had given a list of above 100 witnesses—mud, if he hod such proof as lie declared he could ad duce, why did lie wit aummini them to a Court of Justice ?
