Charing Cr..a try T. ••• *uterus. in the rulre F .nds transaCted artth fidelity of justice in the Northern part of the island ; respelling which, with a view princi pally to the appellant jurislii4:nn of that House, those legislative provisions which had been made at the time of the Union of England and Scotland, had, in the lapse of time, and from the interverhion of a variety of circumstances, of More or less import ance, become, in a great degree, inadequate to their proposed objefts. What His Majesty's go vernment had in contemplation, was the result of much consideration of the subjea, and their opinions not lightly nor hastily madeup. He was aware, that on an occasion such as that to which he al luded, a great degree of attention was necessary to the existing laws of the country in question, and to the opinisns and habits of their fellow-iubjeCts re siding there. He tit conk dent, that a plan may be devised, which would materially improve the present mode of the administration of justice in that country. Of this, unsay had felt the conviction; and the wish that such an amelioration should take place, was en tertained by many more. To the topic, the atten tion of that Muse was particularly called, as in re ference to it, duties were imposed upon their Lord ships, as administering justice in the last resort. It was certainly of the greatest importance, that impar tial justice should be administered ; but the speedy administration of justice constituted a material part of that impartiality. Were their Lordships to look at, and consider the long list of Causes on the table, and the progress made in the disposing of of them. they would, perhaps, think they were ar rived at a point, on which, unless some alteration were male to satisfy the claims oltheir fellow-suli jeds in those respells, they should have to declare, that they were unequal to the adequate performance of t' ie j td vial funSions imposed upon them. In form ing propositions on a subject of such importance, they were happy in having the assistance of toe Noble and Learned pers..m upon the Woolsack, as well as other Learned Lords who bad seats in the House. The propositions which he should have to submit to the consideration of the House. in the first instance, should be as clear, and as di tincß as possible, with a view to enable those who were most likely to be afleCted by the proposed alterations, to understand them perfeAly. In that view, he would not venture to propose them, in the tint instance, in the form of a bill. As it would be desirable that all due atten tion should be given to the propositions on the pate of their Lordships, he would propose a long antesv al for consideration ; which would, at the same time, enable the public fully to attend to them, not only in this country, but particularly in Scotland. Under these impressions, be now save n.-tice, that he skonli submit certain resolutions, on the subjeit to which he alluded., on this day tostnight ; and, on which, if agreed to by the House. after due consi 'deratiou, he should forward a Salto be discussed in the neat Stlliv2 of Pa-liansent. His coo- After the Messengers had withdrawn, their Lord ships ordered that a Message be sent to the Ccmmons, acquainting that House, their Lordships would take the necessary steps to provide for the attendance of the Witnesses mentioned. Lord WALSDIGHA M read the Report of the Committee, to whom it was referred to search tor precedents real:sating the pradice of that 'House, and their Lotdships modes of proceeding on fur met caws of Impeachment. This document was of considerabh length, and seemed chiefly to refer to the various modes of proceeding, as to the mar,. net of their Lordships' attendance, the proceeding to the Court in Westarinster Hall, dec. &c. and aye peered to us to describe a form of proceeding, near ly similar to that which took place ou the uial of Mt. Hastipgs. On the motion of the Earl of RADNOR, the Re port was ordered to Le taken into consideratiou on IVedoesday. Lord AUCKLAND, after a few general remarks upon the propriety of avoiding every posult.le de lay on the approaching trial, to which conoder ation, he doubted not their Lordships would make many sacrifices, in point of convenieace. moved, 4 , That this Noose will, on Tuesday, the 2911 inst. proceed to the trill on the Impeachment of henry Viscount Melville, and continue the same Ile Die Or Ditto, unless special circumstances should intervene to induce it to adjourn over the morrow, " &c. The Earl of RADNOR seemed to d isapprove of the motion ; he thought the House, taking every thing into consideration, could not, at an averase, sit more than four days in the week. upon the trial. He expressed his wisti that the consideration of the motion were adjourned ; and his Lordship having moved to that erect, a short conversation arose be tween the Noble Earl, Lewd Auckland, the Earl eg Rosslyn, and the Lord Chancellor. The two Inner coaffurred in the propriety of *peeing to the motion. After which the cusestion was put, and the motiou agreed to.
