Pooled. And yet Dr. Holland, physician to the Print, is at that place and lime, standing in that peculiar Unit which' gave him the hest open. tnuity of sae. elms ing the truth, linvimg commencer, :mil roiled his counesion with the Prioress at Naples, having therefore no strong feelings of obligation to hind him to leer inierei.t, being in. dependent or her in circumstances, owing her nothing on the Seurr of gratitude, and burial; an opportunity of ae raring patronage, honour, and emolument, if he could have bees swayed by any other ratifiers than the dictates of his honourable and many wind—Hr. Holland swore. that having been five years at home in successful practice in the metropolis, be bad never been called no, no inquiry had ever beers made of 11101 by any One of those promeutuis, or say one •f their numerous agents (being all so alexia's tor the elucidation and char establishment of truth') respect in his obsrevatious of the condom of the Primers of Wales. His Lurd , hin applied the same remark to she absence of Maurice Caleb, who, it was clear, could Lave given material evidence fur the canoe of truth, liough he might not have • been very usefel to the pleat tutor. The same remark applied to the person who made the beds at Nap!. s. Anne Brisson was in s h e powiti. of the Gilt...lment bad the care of the bed, and bed. linen. She mold have established the giiiit by Mamma of the acts hod they been committed. Anne Bristle UM M this eosuitry,periapsita Cotton.garden--of that he was eel Fri. lain, few he knew oohing of dee mysteriea o f that place. Wises be recollected • bow the Couusell for the Queen, who had the interests of their client to consult, had been flouted un account of holding back particular witnesses; and when he considered that on the part of the proseristi )))) it hail been professed that the only object was the dierovi ry of truth, he considered that the House, as well as the Queen, hail been hardly dealt with, whet. they were not allowed to see that evidesice which, if the ateUra. lions were true, court bare distinctly and satisfactorily proved them. His Lordship proposed In pass lightly over those act of supposed iMpriidenee or indelicacy, which were nut stamp. eligibly connected with the ease. If the direct evidence were unsatisfactory and snap's:loos, if the farts of adultery were not to be believed on account of the characters of the witnemea, it would nut he justifiable to try the cundiret of any person, much less of a Queen of England, upon a Hill of Pains and Penalties by such a mode of eXinninatiOu. He commented upon the harsh terms, that had been used with respect to the conduct of her Majesty, which olusetvations, considering the peculiar situation of the Queen at the time to which those observations referred,weve by no means justifiable. C.onsidering the humility which the infirmities of our coin. mots nature ought to have inspired, those remarks ought nut to have been made. Let their Lordships consider Ilse evilly they had in guiding their ors' conduct, especially in retired situation', where they were lean free from those rule., traditions, customs, mauners, and moral relations, which mainly assisted them in discharging thi it moral duties satisfactorily to society and themselves.

Mayers beteg read, aad the names called over, The Marquis of lonsdown resumed hiv obaervatione. He assured their Lordships that lie was not at all disposed to avail himself of the accidental adjournment, to extend the remark's which it was his intentiou to offer to their Lord ships; be did not feel it uticessury to make massy observa tions on the subject of the evidence produced at their bar. Still, however, there remained some remarks for him to make on the point of View in which ninny parts id that evidence bad been placed. Ou Saturday he was pr..- ceeding to remark ton some of the eire 1111 l stances con. steeled with the case at Aura. On th.it part of the ease the Noble and Learned Lord had made sonic pundril obrervatione although if be rightly suilentood hire In bail professed his into-Wiwi of throwing out of hie view all cir cumstances built upon *ignited or suspicious evidence. Now their Lordships would recollect that the occurrences at Aron were deposed to by Deanna and :Thijocchi only. No other evidence bore at all upon the subject. Liestersant [lowness& bad told them he knew nuthiug as to what occurred there, sod the truly witness fur the prosecution that was at all to be credited (be errata Patersii), was also ignorant of the trousactruns at that place. The priucipal circum stance du re was the double teat. If their Lordships would take into coneideratiois the small space which existed between the inner and the outer tent, they must see at once that the outer tent was erected inertly fur the purpose of ad mitting the air, and of affording some sort of shelter in that sultry climate. Thus, immediately the case was M 14114441 iato, there was an end of the inner or middle tent. Ile was nuw erguiog upon the evidence of Demunt, and if their Lordships uunlil yr fee to page 390 of the evidence, they would immediately perceive that likniunt, nn giving her lesEnsuoy as to the situation in which the Princess rioted, when asked if lot Kurd Highness wig dressed or mu. dressed' she immediately replied...undressed." 1 he inference that was iuteaded to Ire conveyed by Destiout whets she stated that, must immediately strike their lordship.. !into,. queutly, however, their Lordships would find, al page 391, when the Counsel fur her Majesty were endeavouring, as they were hound to do, to set the evidence aside, the following qutetion was put:—" Had tlie Prince's, when out of the tent, any other garment on Their Lordship,' could attend to her snswer—" Nothing at all but au outer robe ur garment." That was the cir cumstance which the witucvs and many of their Lord ship. ionised to uggrarate into a MOIIIIIII scene under that tent. But be would chew their Lordships that there was tier doer ludo:miry nor iirdelicacycitlwr under the tent, ur sulew• queutly on the journey. He would twee advert for a sou. went to a remark made by the Noble Earl (Liverpoe9 as well as by the Noble Lord who per - ceded bin. (Manistee) tin the subject of the English penning of her !loyal Highness's suite having left Mr. But if their lordships look ed to she evidence of those persons they would And sufficiesit reasons stated for their quitting without having re course to the notion that they left on account of being dis satisfied with her /loyal Hizhneses conduct. It vas impos sib'e to find persons of rank who would desire to he absent from their native country, except for periods of a very limited duration. No person, therefore, had any right to draw iulerencrs uufavourable to her Majesty, from the. fact of Brit ish subjects baring so left her in a foreigu country. He was ready to admit with the Noble and Learned Lord that the Carlsrulse case was calculated to make a (lest boor preesion on their mimic. He was out desirous not tu allow the force of the evidence oa either. If be felt justified in trusting to the evideece, the case of Carleruhe would be must important. It I V been maintained, to auppoit that case, that Kmee was weexceptionable witness ; that her evideure remained entirely isocontradieted, whets it would have been easy to have contradicted it; but her evidence had nut !wen satisfactorily sited. It was tint plain that Kress herself had out brew deceived, mud that she bail nut merely imagined that she saw the Princess of %Vales, whet. infect it was only the Count** Oldi whir sue beheld in die room with Byre/mi. The Noble Lord opposite (Liverpool) bad stated oue other grouted to traduce belief in Kress's' testimony. If he understood the Noble Earl correctly, he bad staled that Kress hail come forward as a voluu fiery witness in the cause of truth. (The Earl of Liver pool assented.) But what appeared in the evidence oa this point? From the lestimuey of Kress herself, nothing could be clearer than that she was nut a voluntary witness. (Hear, heor.)—The very instant the Princess of %Vale* had quitted those apartmeuta which Baron Colman had so gene. thusly gives. up to her (fur what purpose be kit it to ho supposed), the Baron returned to them, sail having meals stoic' search for particulars of the character of winds be leek in quest, the next Oleg which he did was ti) sod for liestiesel and ask tier if she had seen enthiug AO the coedited of her Royal flightier which wined help to ferrite eronnels of cri. mine' aceneatinn. Awl then their Lordships were to be told that Kress was a voluntary wit ness—(blear, hear) — though it was plais as facts could make it, that she was blotted here by the power and iuflsoeuce of Cioterisructit, that same power mid influence having been unquestion ably used to keep away witnesses who were Wilhite to appear in favour of the Queen !—(//ear, hear)—He world before closing his I enter ks Oh the facts of t •ideuer, say some thing as to that evidence which hail been produced for the otlwr part of Ile case. lie bad beard souse Noble Lords with great appearance of candour say, " Oh, I cm content to give up die evidence of lemons;" others did not wish in retain- Illajocchi, and others hail no objection to set aside the testimony of Saccbi as to the journey to Senegsglia. In justice to the Princess of Wale., awl to this interests of truth, they were bound not to dismiss suy part of the evidence of any of those persons; they were butted to take the whole of those cases together, and consideriug that they were not gathered front any one part of Europe, bet were collected from all the countries through which the Protests of Wales had mimed, they were bO4lllBl to oh if those circumatautes del nut in all the Moaners ex hibit the same character of falsehood, and whether they ought not to raise a doubt is. their Lordships minds to the advan tage of which the accused was retitled. It was to be remember ed that her Majesty's Counsel were entirely prohibited from goiug into the general proofs of ageucy and suboruat ~,,, ; suit although they hail beau circumscribed in the means of proving it, there was evidence which prevented a doubt that nut in oue country only, but throughout all parts of Europe, where bre Royal Highness hush travelled, some bow or other, uu matter for the cause or agency, • belief was crested that to give evidence against the Princess of Wales was the surest road to fortune mei favour. If he believed this—if be were compelled to admit that a most expeusire inschinery of agency hail been eatablished throughout the Continent, ex truding through all ranks, from a Gerinau Minister of State down to it chambermaid, not less bouourable its that pur suit than that Minister of elate with whom she was a joint labourer to procure witnesses against the Queen, Ise was bound to give her Majesty the advantage of that suspicion is every case in which it could possibly apply. Hail they not seen some of the witnesses, Pietro Cuchi, fur iustauce, loofas/etc to have beets induced lions the most conscientious motive* to make a tender of his testimony the cease of morality and truth, while they had it in evidence that every word be swore to was fabrication and falsehood ? If their Lordship" believed that—if they placed any reliance on the other considerations to which he had alluded, must not a suspicion of the same mature apply to Gargiulo and Palmate even in those instances 'where they had out and where they could not have hero contradicted ? Were they Nut betted to consider the effects metal:sr to falselsoud, and wheat they found the foulest testimony bail been heaped up by the most suspicions means, were they not bound to give the illustrious accused the fullest advantage of such doubts as must arise, and consider her pure mid spotiss to all cases where her character had been tarnished by evidence of such a nature? Another circumstance which he felt it ne cessary to consider, was the attempt which had been made to put the forgetfulness and contradict' of Majocchi and Dement upon the same fooling, as the occasional shoelace of recollection in the testimony of Litistenants Flynn mid Ilownant. No doubt these was great appearance of candour in this remark ; but let their Lordships re collect that it was an essential principle of evidence to distinguish betwree that of a wittiest' who hail lost the me.. usury of facie which had existed, said the testimony of him who remembered that which never did exist, and could forget circumstances rebating to the same period of his evi dence whirls bail really takes. place. Majoccht could recol lect Bergarni having beer ill at Naples, and stated eleven stances •tteuiliug that Bluest whicleaccordi lig to the evidence of Dr. Holland, never existed at all. hlajocilei could nut recut fret that any reedited man had alb: sided Bereami 111 that ill ness. Another circumstance to which he celled their Lord ships' awn ion, slot so much as to what had 'mescal at Catsuis, but with reference to what hail taken place in the inflater, when it hail been said that the Countess 01111 and Mariette ought to have hero called. He was not quite satisfied that it testimony had out beets resorted to, is. contradict some parts of the case, but it was to be observed that in must of the instances the time mid place bad been so impeifectly prettied, that the Countess Oldi atel Meriette must have found great difficulty its pettier direct contradiction to the accusatitois. He had heard with some surprise • desire espressed, and a 1111 l ug others Ly the Noble sad Learned Lord sin the Woolsack, that Bergami had beets called to the bar. Had Ikrgaini be en called to the liar, whether lie should have admitted or denied any or all the allegations would not have weighed one feather in Isis num,. It could nut have we ighed one feather in the mind of any candid or honourable Man. Nut nieny years since, its a case of divorce, tried before the Court of Session, it having been proposed to put a person into the box to prove that he had hail criminal connexion with the woman accused, one of the must eminent Judges that ever sat upon that bench said, that lie was bound to tell the Court that if he (the Judge) were called upon to give such testimony, he should think himself absolved from the necessity of speak. ing the truth. In the ease which had been adverted to is the course of the proceeding, Maier Hook, one of the parties implicated, was celled, sod swore that be had sever hail C11111143114J11 with the piety melee. occur. • H is evidence was not believed, their Lordships as to the criminality. Ile wished to make a few remarks sin the character of the eviiitece which might have berms, but had out been produced we the part of the Bill. Ile cowl-listed the condo( t suit the rotes. sloes of the Counsel and Proeecutur with their subsequent practices. Though the Learned Dentlenteu were to be eon. •iderril in some sort as patties to the Dill, the real cause to be tried was to have beets Truth rerslar the Priam* of Wales. If the Noble Ball opposite had been asked at the commencement,supposiug say evidence to be prepared which while it threw susporanta upon the agency by which these charges had been collected, bore materially is. favour of the Princess of %Vales, and if that Noble Earl has bee* told • that the greatest efforts would be made to suppress that evidence, would he not have declared that be would be the last man in the House to cuunteusuce that sup pression? Let their Lordships mark the way is. which they had beet' directed first of all to proceed, and the measures into which they were afterwards drawn. hat 1 , them remember that it was at Naples when that font and only for the purpose of chewing that the Queen's conduct, este pt so far As it related to shecharge of the Bill, formed nu question for their Lordships' deliberation. lie bad no wish to offer explanation, or to attempt any mitigation of her Majesty's COIIIIIIO ; he had made those remarks in consequence of expressions which had fallen from one of their Lordships, and he made them because he was about to iusist that such considerations could not enter into the present in quiry. He would mut occupy their Lordships long, yet be was obliged to consider, in some measure, the ststnre and character of the proceeding upon which they were deliberating. He was far from thinking that this or ally other could be an improver stage of the inquiry for such a purpose. They were lamed to consider that circuoisfinsee, if they were resolved to elo their duty as men, as Judge*, or as legislators. A Noble Lord opposite had stalest that hills of Pains awl Pssalties had incurred a hard name. Long may Bills of Pains asst Pe nalties preserve their bard name! The Noble Earl had ask. ed, sad to shut question he seemed to be supported by the Noble and Learned Lord (ReilesJale)—after all, what was it hut a common Divorce Bill ? This from those who bad proposed to institute a Committee to search fur precedents, out of Divorce Bills but of Bills of Pains suit Penalties only! and had excluded front the Report the only divorce case, that of the Duke of Norfolk, which it was now known gave the accused every advantage that could he desired! Now that all the weight of the Bell of Pains mid Penalties was pressing *pun tile head of the Queen, the Noble and Learned Lord said that there was little if any difference be tween this and a ronsmou Bill of Divorce! Little, indeed ! There was as much difference as between a Bill to relieve the subject and a Bill to iuflict penalties.— Ls a Bill of Divorce, if any penalty occurred, it wan only accessory mistier to the relief to which the Plaiutiff was entitled by the laws of the country; but in a Bill of Pains and Penalties, the relief was ouly accessory sow the penalty certain. He condemned, generally, the principle of Bills of Pains and Penalties, observing, that whereas the laws of the country specified the pstaishment fur an uffesere committed against them, these Bills created a punishment for au offence which violated no preceding After having thus grenade(' and guided their proceedings by the precedents of Bills of Pains and homilies ouly, and not by those of Divorce Bills, thus to tore reused and say that this was nut a Bill of Pains and Penalties, but a Bill of Divorce, and to prim it on this new ground, would be one of the harshest and most unjust proceedings that had ever been adopted. The present was then a Bill of Pains and Penalties, differing only from other Bills of Pains and Penalties in this, that in proportion as the rights and privileges of which it went to deprive its illustrious object were greater than those of other individual*, in propos tiou as the rack and statues from which it 'ought to degrade her were more tasked, the penalties which it enacted were heavier aml more oppressive than those of other Bills. Another ground on which he felt decidedly opposed to this measure was, that it was west oupopulu.—(flear, koar.)—Unpopular not to the rabble only, who might be excited to raise their voices ail to ex. press their opinions against a measure which they possessed no means of information, and were nut enabled to estimate its consequence by any kuowledgeuf the history of their et/entry, but unpopular also with all the best-inforneed and must re- Bectstsg portion of society, wit Is those who knew bow to judge of its principles, and could look forward to its foliate effects. What had been midge' measures of this eleacriptimi by every person who bad written un the subject ? There were two au thors to whom they were taught to look with respect fur their 501111.1 judgment on all matters connected with the principles and practice of our coastitutiou ; be alluded to Blackstone and Paley. If they &mud those authors—Blackstone reced ing from the discussion of the subject, as is consciousness • of its direct opposition to all those constitutional doctrines which be bail nocukated; and Palcy describing them as in their nature essentially nojust, be implored the author• of this proceeding to pause and consider its probable uperatiou on the minds of the reflectnig part of the statism. As long as they felt any deference fur such a alhorities, su loug must they feel averse from any tetessuie of this description. Their Lordships were bound, as Legislators, out only with respect to this measure now before them, but also wish respect to any wiser law, to cuusiikr its effects. He calkil opus their Lordships to recollect that they were palming a law, nut a scutruce--that they were not prosiourceng a judgment, but enacting • law which, like all other law., could only be justified on the ground of its expediency for the public goal. Therefore, is relation to is. expediency, they were bound to consider its effects with regard to public opinion ; sad with respect to public opinion, it was impossible to justify the enactment of such a measure as this when founded not on positive proof, but ou preautnptisus of a fact drawn front the hare possibility of its baviag beets committed.
