And bort err painful and distressing it may be to be called open to repel a charge so disgraceful as that which is now under inquiry, and so maligoant as that which was avowedly iste•ded, I feel it nit t h e ve►y highest essentials time that I am to mower before • Conn etiespaned et .

When I after., as I ant tonfident I shall prove, that dm charge, and all the evidence upon it, as it relate* to me, is utterly false sod unforiadrd, it may naturally beaked what cart bate induced the Prosecutor to make such me accusation, when ►e knew it to be utterly trofoonded. I am unable to define, or even to 11111,1111ile, the persons, metiers of the individual; but, I me sorry to observe, that these times re renewl its instances of the extraordinary comm., a which non may be carried by entry ■od haired of heir superiors in rank sad authority, sod by the clotinc lion which they hope to gain i■ eremite classes of .ucl-ty, by maligusui aspersions sod daring attacks upon those who are elevated above them is station and its character. Gentle ateu—lf the charge against sealant as it now du.-, without my ufieris g • witsess an contradiction of it, I should think, I may say 1 should confideotly trust, that it siwahl uti;rly fail by its own weakliest', nod still more when the evidence of the only material witness, Corporal George, shall come to be contrasted with his own previous state otents, and with the cionkadictioss be has received f.um those whom he has called to support his ease. The narra tive which first oeerkinoed this inquiry, was made, as I un derstand, by Curpor■l George •t the b k canteen, on Sunday, 11th Augt■l, in company with Srrjeant Powell And others, mod there he stated that I first came to him at a picture shop, aod there bad same etioversetios with him; that he followed me, mud that I went into Iwo pubdc houses i■ Oxford.street, while he remained at the door; and dia., in the Ike manner, I weut into • third public lonise; that I ordered beer; that I paid for it at the bar; that I hronsbt the beer into the room ; and that after I was gone he spoke to the mistress of the house about me, wire said that she did not know my Name, but that I was often there in the eveuisg with soldiers, and ogles treated them, for which she thought me a very good man. To prove that he made this statement, I shall call Serjrsnt Fora, who made • minute in writing of what passed. A iew days afterwards, the substage* of this conversation having been reported, Corporal George was essmined, as he states in his evidence, before the officers of my regi ment, sod his essoonattos was ibis takes in writing. lie thee stated that I first came to him and spoke to him in Oaford•strret, as he was looking at some grapes in • window. Is confirmation of this story, he stated that one Foster had seen him wisely lie went lute the house, •lid that he saw Shaw and Mason, when he was koiog away, and told Ann. among other thiugs, be bad bier drinking with old Gore. The evidence he has given before this Honourable Court cuireationds more Deady with that which be gave before the officers, than with his former couvereati ~,, ; but when it is placed by tae side of that which is staird by the wit ■eaars, pointed out by himself to support leis narrative, it will be found, eves by them, to be no iterially contradicted. You will observe, that to the statement mule h. re, he says the first shop he was looking into was at the corner of Holies-street. There is • fruit shop there. He says he went to Yrre street, where I followed him. If so, we must have returned a considerable dot along Osfurd-street, to Corporal bluebell deposed Mat he was present at a eoa err•attue between eurposal George and private Shaw, in Knightsbridge barracks, ou a Suuday niernieg, when the for mer accused the latter of nut telling the troth ►efore the gentlemen; to *bleb the latter tepttpd, that IC he wasted hint IV *.y any thous, he shnuld have spoke to him before be wrist hi, auJ theta lac should bate known what to say; bet Pat fcl. *arc!, Ul vie ate in eisastios. Nos modem' boa Corporal this feet is kis evidesee here. Bet, Geetlemen, it strike you as eery extrsordisary, that if this weals Beth inspertaai evidsmee,ber same was server awe Geneve was examined before the pikers; woe oaarany (wastes that I kiwi, till she was produced here. isforbeser to make any remarks or the meow is which this wawa gems her eeldesee; yes saw, and will este your owe °beans. gloss; hut I cannot fo rbear reepsestiag your particular at testiou to her saying that she did not know me; she sever me my face; aud'yet, even while I was *Win, she said that in height and Osman' I was mare like the person she eiw, than any other Individual in the room. Harass saver 'ward the name of this woman till two or three days ago, and their without any address or description, I could make so inquiries about her; but judge, Gestlesiseu,•of my sur prise, when, on leaving the Court alter the edjosrumest, yes terday, I was informed, and which is sieve secertaismd to be true, that abs is, or has king passed for the settee ilinkCarpoes~gee wlesumehe peolesidaliksbare•-fserwma iiwiy Own years. The witnesses called to preee'what pored in the Insist are Catherine Hair and Mary WCarttry. I will nut stop to cannier, but merely notice the differmmee be tween their evide.ee and the statement Mgt made by George, of my paying for the beer at the bar and taking it intii the room myself. Habit is a secuud nature, and I will leave you, Gentlemen, to judge whether it is probable that a man well bore, mad aired all his life to the attendance of servants, should, even if be so far chimed himself as to drink at sit a lehouie with a soldier, become:asp suddenly tranafurnsed as to sink into • gaiter. But do these wit. sews, or does either of them, lead the least suppoit to the stories he has tel.' about his conversation with the mistress of the house, sod her having told him that I was friquesily there treating Diddle's. The Story be is emigrated is is way liki ly true so far as be is confirmed ; it is very likely that be was in the bootie between six and seven dzieltisg with a man dressed as be describes, and that *author man came in who went to sleep, and the first men west away ; bet It is utterly untrue that I was the man. Of all the wit• PIMPS be has called, sot tame has sworn to any person • but W I had coaversed with and paid money to the fema les he hits ca:led, in the manner be describe., it is next to impos sible but that they must have had some idea offbe appear. mime o f Nei a nerve% enough at least to have stated whether I resembled him or sot. I shall say very little about tbe evi dence of Shaw and Mason. They ate witnesses selected by George himself to supped his testimony,altbough he has called atiother witness, Corporal Marshall, to throw discredit Qs one of them. Of these weep, I know nothing; what he may have expected from them, and os whet his expectations may have been founded, I cannot tell; but of this I feel as. lured, that if be had, on the 2J of August, told them that he bad been drinking at en ale-boom witb• me, loaf be fore the 10th, every soldier, every military teas, and pro bably all the world besides, would have been informed of it. They bare been examined, and I shall call Fester to prove that be did not see George or me en the sight In question. It may be asked, how it shook' happen that This mars should fix on me, in preference to any other person. The sequel cf my defence will sliew that I may have bees seen in Ox. ford-street on that day, and idles, is the-course of a very licentious convereatios at the canteen, a servant, whom I was then shout to discharge, mentioned me, it pro bably occurred to Corporal George to ix on me facts which applied to some other person, and to add suet, circumstances as be thought would give additional effect. If 1 were ad dressing • Court composed of parsons to whom homier is lets dear this it ia.to Bettie& nicer, I should of as apology for consuming so mach time is noinnelverting on the ease attempted to be made out &plea me, when I have to produce foil, decisive, and irresistible proof that I could sot possibly be engaged with George in the manner bag alleged. To you, I am sure, no such apology is necessary; for teen if your judgment should disapprove the coarse I have takes, your bosourable minds sill partici pate in my feelings. You will bear ie mind that the time I am supposed to have passed in the disgraceful iptercouree you have beard of, is from about balf-patt stet or seves o'clock, to some time about a quarter of no hour or twenty minutes after sewn. I shall slew by the clearest evideore how I was engaged, not only that portion, but during the whole day ; and prove beyond a doubt that ibis charge against lite is a-aerosoly and wickedly false. At the beginnhig of August, my health was In such a state, that I sot only was under medical care, bet ate my meals separcely from thy family, and was Reloading to go to • the coast for change of air. On the 2d, at half-past four o'clock, the horse W 36 put into • gig, and my father drove me to the house of Mr. Ruse, my surgeon, in Park-plaer. That Gentleman bring esgagtd, I was driven by my father to Stoekdale's, the bookeeller, is Piccadilly • and • rain coming on, remained there till past five. -he weather then clearing up, I returned to Mr. Rose's ; and, after ialf-tiog about • quarter of an hour, bad • lung interview with him, and he wrote • prescription for me, which is ilated, and will be produced. My father Hies drove me bolus to South Audky.street, oiliest we arrived a little after SIX. I dined afoot., and at a quarter pat seven, and sot till then, I again gut into the gig, and my,father drove me to Mr. Bell's, the chemist, is Oafurd.ateeet, where I got the pre acriptios made up. I west )1310 the amp for this purpose, leaving my cloak in the gig, and I retuned to my father, who sal in the gig waiting for me, sail saw me come hum Mr. Bell's dour. He then drove me for • short time in Hytle psi k, sod we returned home about • quarter after eight.
