Onder these circumstances, he threw him self 'upon the justice of the House. Lord CASTLEREAGH said he- would Duly make one observation on what lent fallea from t::c host. Gentlethan. He stated:, that if the matter were to recur again, he would pursuethe same course he Ipul before taker), and that he did notthibk himself imposed upon with respect to the 'paper. He would ask him whether he considered it con sistent with his duty to read 'ant depositions if they were not the depositions as taken before the 'Commissioners ?-' It would be a strange pervere sion, if mer:erecollection of what occurred .before a Court werceto be set up against former deposi tions, ancbset up, in derogation Of the judicial character. He knew the lion. Gentleman would not maintain such a principle; he must therefore say, that be had been imposed, upon, otherwise be would not have read the paper. . - - He was sorry that he had not made the communication to his friend (Sir S.

He also stated, that if the ques- bread) . bad been betrayed-into such an irregula tions he had read, together ,With the answers to rity.. It was the noire to , be regretted, because diem as given by Mrs. Lisle, had been taken the Hoese was.in possession of no document with down, as he thought wa s the usual way, and pub- svhich that paper could be compared.

He did not been put into his hands on the morning of the: say, that the depositions, as stated to be made bee day on which be read: it. He spoke without tine fore the Commissioners, were either fabricated or pitting blame to him ; but the paper ought not to falsified ; but he 'said, that if the Paper, said to he made the foundation of any statement in that contain these depositioas, Was correct, the Paper .

In conclusion, be only commented on some of them, arid said that he remarked, it wits not to 'be wondered that the if such were put, they were put improperly. Un- Noble Lords who hall been mentioned, had taken til yesterday he did not believe that the questions an opportunity .of - Correcting the mirepresenta emi answers, as put before the Comini..sionetee flints whicle:had gone abroad respecting their con : were all taken down I - tthe same way as they we're - duct';---it was rather a matter of surprise that before any othet counnissi i on appointed either by : they had suffered so malty days to -elapse before the CSowir or by Parliament ; or us was the case they replied to the statement which had been wed& in the Cotirt of Chancery. It was this that led by the lion. Gentleman. him into thebelief he 'entertained. It waS not me- Mr. 'Eeeicre . was unwilling to prolong :a con til he had received the iorimation front his lion. versatiOn `of this nature ; but after what had Friend (Sir'S.

He merely stated the permission of the .House to offer a few words on questions. as illustrati - e of ' the nature of Mrs. - the subject. The impression which bad been made Lisle's evidence, and said that if answers had been on hint, and he belieeed on tegreat I part of the e taken down with the questions, and -published, House , by the pap er read by bis.liariour they would remove, in a great measure, the sting- Friend (Mr. Whitbread), was the. it was produced which the depositions carried with them. Ott as a regular minute of the proceedings of the Com- Wsdnesday last, lie wrote a 'letter. to Mrs. Lisle, snittee on the day on which Mr,..

Ile did not say hie Hon.

Mrs. Lisle stated; the she did not Wish to set up her examination against the proceedings of the Contutissioners, and, he, would add, no more did be; but he contended, thus What she had stated bore a different efiaratler when proved to have been given in answer to •••such questioni as lead been put to her,•than it did when it appeared as her own free volnntary state- . meat. Now, With respect to ghat his Honour.; able Friend (Mr. Elliott) had said, of what had been mentioned by another Hon. Gentlentan (Sit. S. Romilly) namely, that only the -answers had beett taken down in the minutes of the proceet:,- ings of.-the Commissioners, he would answer, that he did remember this to Have been stated, but he also recollected, that that lon. Gentleman hnd also stated, that after the depositions had been taken, the original papers were burnt. Sir S. RomILLY.—" Oh no, certainly suit.'' Mr. WIIITBUFAD said, then lie had in this in stance a wrong impression on his mind. He beg ged the Hon. Gentleman's pardon. Alto '‘vhtst he had just heard, he was satisfied he '(Sir S; Rotnilly) had not said so, Ile did not mean to.. impute to the Commissioners titer they bad t iken down the examinations on the day whit Mrs. Lisle made her deposition in a manner differing from that •in which they bad previously been taken. He had principally contended, that what Mrs. Lisle had given in answer to questions put by the Committee, bore a different interpretatioft than was likely to be given to it, as it appeared in the deposition. Mr. Eworr said, be had, understood the Hon. Gentleman' to have awed, that the deposition was so drawn from the evidence, as to give an tul;• fair impression of what bad been said by the wit- Mr. WHITBREAD hail intended to shew,that the questions and anSwersneade the evide#e of Mts. Lisle appear different from what it seemed in the deposition,. Sir S. ItomiLLY had never said the original pa. , pets Were buynt. Mr. WHITBREAD. acEnowledged his mistake; and was satisfied hebad been wrong. .• Sir. S. ROMILIA' might have said that only one of the papers was preserved in its original state. .The Witnesses frequently desired to alter or. to qualify What they laid advanced, and this was ge, nerally thine by interlining what they wished -ro ad& ' llc did not know brit in one or two ',in-. • stances the alterations were so,greati.that the eti r , - einat paper had been put aside, andthe depositions 'written over again. Mr. WHITBREAD recollected the papers stated to have been -burlit- were not those to which he had alluded, but certain examinations taken by the solicitor-General. Mr. PoNsoNnY 'thought there coubi a stronger illustration of the little dependance to be placed on the memory of frail man; than this 104.itt had furnished, when it had been said that, his pourable Friend (Mr. AVhithread) had 'teen - able to recollect what he himself hail said, or what had fallen front another Ilort. Gentlemen, lie submitted. to the Memory of the House, if the. Honourable Gentleman had .rut represented the Commission to have fabricated evidence tole laid before the Crown . , and if he (Mr. Ponsouby) bad not withdrawn ithirielf from the . House QTI that occasion, to write a note to another Honourable Gentleman (Sir S. Romilly), stating what had oc curred, that he might -attend to give that expla ' nation which was necessary. Now, he would ask, tvltat was usually thnught of the credit of . a wit- ness who swore at one tune that certain pccur 7 . renew had. taken - place, and at. another wrote 4 different account of the same matter Why the, credit of such a witness would be destroy ed. But he lamented most exceedingly Ow eintrse which had been pursued on the present occasion. The Hon. Geptlenian,said he did not set up the paper which be had produced against-the formal proceedings of the Commission. It was impossible that he could do so. In the nature of things, he could not do it, and the ogle effect of an attempt to 'do so, would be to destroy theere dit of the witness : whose testimony was so brought forward. He thought he had some right to c..sai plain of his lion.
