INTERESTING EXAMINATION Eta It.WILSON, AND Mgistts.IIUTCHINSON AND BP. TICE. [Concluded iron) yesterday's Paper•] INTERRoGkiditY, Fan. 20. (Continued.) .. Q. Setting aside whatever relates to abstract stations' of Government, and confining myielf to wil'at is personal to the King, I ask why you have attacked his character, so well known to France anti to all 'Europe, in observing, '' 1 suspect he is not sincere ; that be trifles with his professions of clemency, end that he will support the terrorists ? —A. Perhaps 1 have done wrong to the inten tions of the King, whom I once personally knew, and who inspired me with a feeling of respect .which has been testified by me in thole public ser vieis with which he is well acquainted; but when I saw that the King did not confer the pardon pyomised in some degree to Madame de Lava lette, and that the King's Ministers were obliged to ahaudon their measures of clemency already ennomseed to the Chambers, I at first ascribed this difference between promise and reality to a want of sincerity on his part, especially as he has the right, from his sovereign character, to say, "1 will." On my arrival in France I brought opi nions entirely favourable to his happiness, al though I differed as to the means of accomplish ing it, and have always thought that amnesty alone could lead in that desirable result. Q But after you had conceived a desire to see the Government overturned, you supported your conjectures in this respect with the opinions of foreigu Ministers ; and you so little concealed this siesire, that, in reporting their conversations on this subject, you say in one of these letters, " It is not that I regard' them as oracles, but the publicity of their predictions rendeti them important.": It would seem from this that you attached a great value to this importance I—A. No desire on my Mart, similar to that which is supposed, con be in terred from the use of the word " importance," which signifies nothing in our language, or in the passage where I have employed it, more titan the authority communicated to the intelligence by the sonrc4,3 from which it proceeded. Q. But at the end of ibis first reflection, why do you, speak of an individual departed for Mi /an, in the character of an Austrian courier, to carry the intelligence that the crisis had arrived at maturity : ought it not to be concluded that at this period you were in the confidence of to con spiracy which had for its object the subversion of the Government I announced this intelli gence which 1 bad received in the diplomatic cir- Ctrs without any peculiar object ; and such a coin mimication I had a right to make; but with re tpect to Ally conspiracy tending to overthrow the French Government, Y repeat, that my political conduct has been always uniform on that subject, genial aim us or 4. ratite ; anti 1 turfy the 'dorm to prove that I have ever swerved from these princi ples. which I caused to be printed in the English Journals. Did you not, at least, assist in promoting, tile circulation and publicity of a work which. Tts_ calculated to produce so pernicious a result to lin ope in 4telierall and to Frtince bi particular No ; : a cap of it was merely lent to me, from which. I drew another for the English Gnveriuneut; the copy . which it shown to use WAS borrowed by me to he e9mllitt”icated to a subject of the Empe ror of Rse , :sia, in order tO have his opinion 85 tO the ant heis t kit V of the work, which 1 myself believed to be ass official document, on the ground of the extract which it contained Iron) a letter of Lord Castles cagls, which could he known only to one who hall access to she Porte-fendle of the Emperor. As an historical state paper, I had a right to have it in my possession; but I never lent it to any na tive of Fiance. Q. Did you not at least seek to accredit it in declaring your sentiments on the principles therein developed, anti which, if enforced, must have caused the subversion of the system adopted by all the Powers of Europe, and have carried agi tation anti' disorder into the bosom of France, whose legitimate Soveleign bad been just re-esta blished by all the allied armies It appears to be forgotten that I am an Englishman, anti that the tights of au Englishman are not understood. My former answer is definitive, nor wilt 1 he drawn into a tttetaphysical discusshin of Let me be accused and judged ; and when I shall be belore the tribunals, I shall know how to de fend myself and maintain toy rights. Q. Do you acknowledge to be of your writing the letter which I present to you, and which has been found among the letters of Goulette i A. No, Sir, it is not my hand. Having taken the answers of the accused, we have closed the present proces-verinit, which he signed after reading it with us and the clerk ; and has also signed and ntarked with a ne vuretur the letters which we tiresettcd to him ; the re port attributed to M. Pozzo di ilorgo, and the letter which lie deposited in our hands. PROTEST:OIiSTH 11 . 011E14,T wiLsns:, 5121111014 ED IN THE bIINUTE OF TUB 24TH JAN., AND 41411412 XE!) TO TIIE MINUTE P.NCLoSh.O Q. What would appear, however, to eittablish in a' formal and positive manner, that you uttacb•; e4l the most lively interest to the circumt►stance of the courier's departure, .and to the object of his mission, are the expressions which you add lower down, " that the majority of the people pro nounce for the young Napoleon, and that his pre tensions, supported by the Russians and Austrians, will finally prevail."—A. I had had reaso►►, at this time, to attach importance to the departure or the courier ; but some time afterwards I was informed that I had been deceived. I had, how ever, a right to believe and to announce chat a cr►sis was ap(troaching, when I saw. the Faylibb troops delay their departure from:lay to day, not withstanding the treaty of peace. Q. But did not you proceed farther than con jectures, and speak of a particular and positive knowledge, when you observed, " .sanguinary scenes will take 'place before the resolution can be consummated, but the point Is fixed,, and the impulse given I"—A. I did not say " will take place," but " may take place," which changes the senseof the phrase, and converts certainty into pos sihility. In other respects the preceding news jus tified my opinion op to the period when l was utuleceived; anti this news was not confined to the departure of the courier, but referred to all the political events which formed the subject of general conversation. I shill finally add, that my political opinions (and, this declaration is made with perfect candour) had no influence on my de cision with regard to the measure submitted to rue for saving Mons. Lavalette. My only purpose was to save an unhappy .man, of whose life or death circumstances had, in some degree, 'made me the athiter, anti who addressed himself to me, not only in confidence of my penonal humanity, but of the national generosity. The deposition being read, the accused declar ed that his answers contained the truth, anti that be had nothing to alter or to add. It was then signed by us and by the clerk.

Before replying to anyinterragatories, it le' my duty to state the motives which have bithertsrdissuaded me hoot so doing, and those which now decide me to a change of con duct.

Thirdly. I was informed that .hy - say perseverance, in which, after the replies of Messrs. Bruce and Ilmehisison, and my communications to the Ambassador of my eJuntry, 1 stood alone, I was delaying the trial, and prolonging the sufferings of my friends.
