As the Case of Sir HOMt rOPH AM will very soon come under the consideration of Parliament, we think it our duty to lay before our Readers some Extract's from the voluminous Papers which have been presented to the House of Commons respetting that Officer. But, in doing so, we shall carefully avoid imitating the illiberal and unjust conduct of some of our 'Cotemporaries in the case which has recently occupied the public. mind. 'We will not endeavour, by exaggeration or misrepresenta. tion, to mislead the public mind—we will not „in. decently anticipate the decision of. Parliament—we will not condemn before trial. Whatever our opi. nion may be, upon the perusal of these Papers, of Lora ST., VINCENT and Mr. TucKea, they shall receive at our hands that justice which some of their Friends denied to Lord Mato: , t LLE and Mr.TitoT.
