W !ICH they were on deck, were they walking as usual ?—As _ _ _ In what mAnner do you mean by saying as usual ?—I do not recollect that day seeing -them walking on deck more titan any other day?—hut if t hey wen:, it was as they always did. Was it, arm in arm ?—lt inight li - tre been anti in arm. Was that their usual way of walking the deck ?—Her Royal Hi.,:liness could not walk the deck without the arm of some body. You were in the port of Syracuse, then, were you not ? We were. . . Could her ltoyal Highness, then, not walk the deck without the assistance of another person?-1 did not say that she was walking - with the assistance of another; she may have walk.d alone : it was not so remarkable that 1 should wake a note of it in my mind. Was it so usual for them to walk arm in arm, that it did not make any impression on your mind ? Mr. linountimn objected to this question, as assuming twat the witness had admitted that the - parties had walked arm iii arm, whereas the witness liad said no such thing; he had merely said, they alight hare so walked.—(Ci ies of " Read.") The Short- hand Writer was directed to read over his notes of the preceding questions and answers. Mr. Buotlonam still maintained that the witness had not admitted the walking, atm in arm which the question assumed. The ATTORNEY-Ge.NERAL (killed that his question assumed that the parties had walked arm in arm. He only asked if it were so usual a thing that it did not make an impression. Earl GREY thought the question objectionable. The LORD CIIANCELLk tit said the difficulty would be obviated by asking the witness, whether it would. have made au impression, &c. The A 1 - IORNEY-GENERAL conceived that he had a right in cross examination to ask a leading question. The 1.0111) CHANCELLOR—You can, strictly speaking; but it amounts to the same thing to put it the other way. 1 now ask you, whether it was so usual for her Royal tress and Ihrgami to walk arm in arm, that if it had happened at Syracuse o t that occasion, it would hare maths ❑o impres sion on your mind ?—lt would not. Outing t his voyage and journey in the East were any addi tional Orders conferred on liergann ?—I do not know whether it can properly be called an Order ; it was talked of many months before her Royal Ilighness undertook the journey. She said she would make an Order of her own as a little re compense to those who would accompany her as a sort of me metal, My question is, were any Orders conferred on l3ergami ? If that was an Order. there was. What ':as it called?—St. Carolina. Was he one of the Knights of that Order ?—He was. Was he not Grand Master of the Order believe it was so stated in the Diploma. Was any other Order conferred on Bergatui la the course of that journey ? —Yes ; the Order of St. Sepulchre, this Woly Sepulchre. Di, you know whether that Order was purchased for Ber gami have nut the slightest idea that it was; I du not believe it. Was there any other person on whom this Order was con ferred ?—lt was conferred on Schiavini and Wtn. Austin. Was it a Catholic Older ? believe it was. ‘Vere you present when it was conferred?—Yes. And her Royal Highness I—Yes. Where did it take place ?—ln the Temple of Resurrection at Jerusalem. In going to Jerusalem by land did you not repose under tents ?—We did. You travelled during, the night, and reposed by day ?—Yes. Do you recollect how many tents there were ?—Six or seven, 1 think. Who reposed under the tent with yourself ?—Flynn, in general, the Doctor, and 1 believe Sehiavini. Did you see her Royal Highness when she alighted from her ass retire into her tent ?—She threw herself on the sofa of her tent upon getting down from her ass or mule. Do you know where Bergami reposed every day ?—I do not. Don't you believe he reposed in the tent of the Princess ? I don't know ; I never saw. I ask if yon don't believe that he reposed there ? Mr. BROUGHAM observed, that this question of the Attor ney-General was irregular ; but so far from objecting to it, he was sorry he had not asked it himself. Ho might or might not ; I do not know. What was your belief?—l date say he did ;I do not know ; lie may or may not ; I cannot say; I had no journal to put it in. Did you see him under any other tent ?—I did nut; I re tired to my own as soon as I got off my horse. Where did Schiavini sleep ?—Under the tent with me, but I will not be positive. . Where did Hieronymus and Camera sleep?-1 do not know. In your journey to the East, you were at Ephesus ?—Yes. You remember the Cafe Turk at Ephesus ?—Yes. Where did the Princess dine ?—She dined in the Church yard, under the porch, on the following day. Where did you dine ?—With her. Will you swear that you dined with her on that day ?—I am convinced I did. Where did you land on your return from the voyage?— At Cappo Lanza. You have said that A the Barona there wai dancing, and that there were daughters of some persons in the neighbour hood, who were they farmers' daughters. Who were they ?—One was the daughter of the agent at a place near the Barona. Were there other daughters ?—Yes; three, four, or 6ve ; I do not exactly recollect the number. Were there many persons there of low life ?—I do not know what their particular situation in life was, there were farmers' daughters; I have no recollection of persons of lute life. How often were these dances given at the Baro n a ?—Four ' or five times. You knew these farmers' daughters ?—Only from seeing them there ; that is all the knowledge 1 had of them. You have said that upon one occasion you were at Char nitz ?—Yes, if that is the name of the Barrier Town, on the way from Carlsruhe. ATTORNEY-GENERAL—You have said you were at Charnitz ? Mr. BROUGHAM.—No; he said if it was the Barrier Town, lie was there. That is what you are pleased to call a contra diction, I suppose. Mr. iluttmey, the short-hand writer, referred to his notes, and found that the witness had not said, " that he was at Charnitz," hut, " that if that is the name of the town be tween the Austrian and Bavarian territories. ii was there." The A rroeracv-ileraettac.—Where you ever at Charnitz ? —I do not know whether it is the name of the town to which you allude. Do you recollect Bergami and Vassali going for passports from a frontier town ?—Peth'ctly. There was a great deal of snow on the ground ?—A great deal. And you had a great deal of difficulty in going on ?—A great deal. Were you not obliged to have a way cut through the .snow ? —We were. Were not many persons employed in doing that ?—Yes, 20, no, or 40 persons ; I do not mean to say in a body, but on dif ferent parts of the road. What time did you set out front that place ?—ln the morn ing. I think it was day-light. What time of the 'year was it ?—The month of March. Was it not near eight o'clock before you set out ?—I do not rec Acct the hour, but I think it was day-light. Broad day-light ?—1 should imagine it was. Du you recollect that in consequence of soma delay with respect to passports, your baggage was stopped at a barrier town 1-4 do. Was the baggage left at the barrier• or at the inn ?—The baggage was stopped at the barrier and had to go back to the inn, which was within a few hundred yards of the harrier. Were the carriages - unloaded on that night or not ?—I had nut my baggage, and I do not think they were. You have spoke of the journey from Milan to Rome, and from Rome to Senegaglia; bow many carriages had she ? Three or tour; I do nut recollect positively. What sort of carriages were they ?—An English landau, an English landaulet, a little German carriage, belonging to William, and a Roman calash made at Rome. Where did you stop at un the first stage from Rome ?—At Antinlu. Where did you stop on the following morning, was it at Rucciera ?—Yes, I believe so, because there are mineral springs.

At. what time did you get to Senegaglia ?—About one or two o'clock in the day. Was it not later ?—I do not recollect, it niay.

On the last stage to Senegaglia and Ferno, do you nut re collect Sacchi being ill there?—No, I do not. I.A you not remember Sacchi going to bed id in consequence of taking something cold, some ice lemonade ?—I have not the slightest recollection of it. In what carriage did her Royal Highness travel from Rome I to Senegaglia ?-111 tha landaulet; her Royal Highness al ways travelled hi the landaulet, and I believe it was in that carriage she travelled. Who travelled in the carriage with her Royal Highness? —I rather think the Countess Oldi and Bt:rgaini. Who travelled in the carriage with' you front Rome to Se negaglia ?—The t Wi'r chambermaids, arm Count Schiavani. Where Victorine travel ?—I think in her Royal High ness's carriage. yon wean all the way from Rome to Senegaglia ?—Yes. Why lin you think so ?—B...catise she refused to • come into our carriaa,, in consequence of its having been upset. Will you swear that she s ' ac not in the carriage with you ? —I can only swear from recollection, and frOm that I can swear I do not remember seeing her in the carriage I travelled in. What carriage did you travel in ?—ln the English landaulct. Who travelled in the third carriage ?—Wm. Austin and 11. hat sort of a carriage was it ?—A Small German carriage belonging to William. On the journey from Anrana to Rome, did not Louis Rt•r gatni travel with her Royal Highness ?—I cannot be certain of Ibis fact. Yon saw him , at Ancona ?—Yes, I did.

Who travelled in the fourth carriage ?—A Homan Officer and others. Who travelled in the fourth carriage from Rome to Sene eagha ?—Did nut Camera - and Louis Bergami ?—Positive:y I do not know. Louis Berganii went once or twice to Milan. Who went as courier from Borne to Senegaglia ?—I believe Carlo and Sacchini. Did you see Carl!) on the road front Rome to Senegaglia, at any place ?—I do not recoll,ct seeing any one of them. Do you recollect at Polino having any difficulty about post horses, or at the next post?-1 do not recollect. Did you not take the same post horses on from Polino ?—lt happened so often that I cannot say. Do you mean to say, that on the same journey you could not get horses to go to the next town ?—I do not mean on the same journey, but on other journeys we frequently could not get horses. How close was your carriage to her Royal Highness's in travelling front Rome to Senegaglia?—Sometimes near and sometimes at a distance. Will von say that SAcchi did not ride as courier try the car riage of the Princess ?—Not having seen I cannot say. Do you know Bergarni's wife ?—Ni. Do you know any others of the family ?—Yes. What are their names ?—Bet mirth) and another. Do you know Fauctina?—Yes; she is the sister of Bergami. When did you know that Countess Oldi was the sister of Bergami ?—tioon after she came into the Princess's house. Did you know it at the time she entered the House of her Bova! Highness?—No; hut soon after. Did you know Faustina's husband ?—Yes, I have seen him at the Villa d'Este. _ _ Did Faustina ever dine with her Royal Highness never saw her. Do you know Pietro and Carlin°, the nephews of Rergami ? Yes. - _ _ . What situation were Pietro and Carlin° in, in her Royal liiichness's service ?—Pietro was on the long voyage. _ li'hat situation was he in ?—A servant. iVhat was Carlino ?—I do not know if I am speaking of the right person, but I think Carlin() was in the stables. After the return from the long voyage, was not Bergami's toot her called Madame Livia—Not more after than before. Had the mother dined with her Royal Highness before the long voyage ?-1 do not know. Did she after ?—Yes. Did Bernarito dine with her Royal Highness at the Bar°. na ?—I du not recollect having seen him ;—I do not think he did. Did you ever see Bergami's wife, the Baroness, at her Royal Highness's table ?—I never saw her at all. Neither at the Villa d'Este, at the Barona, or elsewhere ? No. How far is the Barona from Milan ?—Two miles. Yon have seen Bergatui's mother, brother, and sister at her Royal Highness's table, and yet you never saw Bergami's wife at her Royal Highness's table never saw her. Did she never conic to see her child never saw her. When you first joined her Royal Highness at Genoa were you sent for by her Royal Highness?—Yes, from England. Where do you reside now Burv-street, St. James's. I have been frequently with her Royal Highness at Branden burgh House. I have not been there since Saturday. I have been hut twice since I came last to England. I saw Schiavini there. I came to England last Friday week, I think. 1 have been twice in England. I had been in England five weeks before I returned to Rouen, where I remained ten days. I then came over again. Re-examined by Mr. TYNDALL. Faustina, I know, was in the house at Genoa, but I did not mean to say she was in the household. The upper servants only joined in the amusements at the Villa d'Este. The un der ones did not. The plays at the Villa d'Este took place about four years ago. I have no better recollection of the plot or incidents of those entertainments than I stated. At Tunis, a Doctor was taken on board. An alteration then was made; Bergami's bed was then placed in the dining-room, within a screen. I don't recollect Bergami going into the cabin with the Princess after the accident. He could not have slept in the cabin, for he must have slept on the ground if he did. When you said that you believed Bergami slept in the tent, what was the ground of your belief ?—Because there was a squall, which obliged her Royal Highness to come down, and Bergami told r.o that the sea came in, and he therefore must have been there. . _ . Do you recollect Bergami's dress at the time ?—No ; I have no distinct recollection of his dress, but he was dressed at the time. Do you believe that Bergami slept every night under the tent ? '['he SOLICITOR-GENERAL objected to this as a leading quest ion Mr. Balm/Guam said the Attorney-General had put a simi lar one.—The question was not pressed. - The crew of the polacca was composed of Neapolitans and Sicilians. Half the crew were upon deck during the night. Why did yiiu think it necessary that the Princess should have somebody to sleep with her under the tent consi dered that the Princess sleeping on deck by herself would not be at all right. 1 had net er seen any of those men before I sailed, and knew nothing of their characters. Her Royal Highness has walked with me—with Schavini, as well as with Bergami. She has walked with other Gentlemen who came to visit her. I was appointed Knight of the Order of St. Ca.. ,roline, of which Bergami was Grand Master. Mr. Flynn an other, William Austin, Camera, and, I believe, Dr. Mochetti, were also appointed Knights of that Order. Witness, in continuation, stated, that there was an English sailor on board the polacca, who was as far as Athens, and then left them ; witness had been ordered to attend the Ad• miralty, where he was asked when he had seen the sailor, James Adams, last, and if he knew where he was. Examined by the Loans. The Earl of ROSEBERRY.—Witness only once saw her Royal Highness at breakfast at Genoa. Bergami was there. He was not sitting, but appeared as though in wait ing.—Does not recollect any other person being in the room at the time.—The tent to which witness had alluded was a tent within a tent, that is, there was a gallery round the tent. I have frequently seen servants in that gallery, which was sufficiently large for the whole crew; but I do not know whether any person slept in the gallery or not. Persons might open the tent from the deck on the outside, by drawing the canvass aside. lam not aware that the tent was fastened on the inside. You stated that you once went up the ladder into the tent. Did you do so inure than once ?—Yes, more than once; when I went up the ladder and saw the tent was closed, I came down again immediately. Witness said, my only knowledge of the Princess being there, was by seeing that the tent was closed. Do you know whether any body slept under the tent ex cept Bergami and the Princess, during the voyage ?--1 do not know that Bergami slept there, but I have heard su ; I be lieve he did. Vas it necessary for any body to sleep under the tent with her Royal Highness ?—lt was necessary some person should sleep near her. I ask, whether You believe Bergami slept u n d er th e te n t, and whether his sleeping under the t ent w as not degrading to her Royal Highness's situation ?—No, I du n o t thi n k i t was . In the journey from Route to Senegaglia, you have stated that two couriers attended the Princess, have you any thing to mark the circumstance on your memory have not. Did you know whether either of these couriers rode by the Princess's carriage. I have no perfect recollection of the cir cumstance. I think one of them, Sacchi, rode before the carriage. Earl GREY.—When you said you thought it necessary for some person to sleep with her Royal Highness on deck, did you apprehend that it was proper ?—Yes, I considered it ne cessary. Under the circumstances in which you believe Bergarui to have slept under the tent, did it convey to your mind any sus picion of an improper connexion between Berg ami and her . • Royal Highness ?—lt did not. The Earl of LIVERPOOL—I wish to ask the witness vi here _ y_7 Lieut. Flynn slept during tile voyage from Jaffa?--He slept tn his cabin below, and some nights on deck. I wish to know -whether the witness believes Lieutenant Flynn hung his- cut upon deck during the whole voyage P—l ltdiere sr) saw hiS Cut several times. lie slept on the upper deck; but whether be slept there during the 'Whole voya t fe I don't know. Did the witness act as Private Secretary to her Royal High ness P—l did. I wish to ask the witness whether he knows any thing re lative to the pnrchase of the Ilatoaa estate and other.pt perty, assigned to Beigami by her Royal Highness ? Mr. DENMAN objected to the question. The witness was in a con6dential situation, and might •know something: which passed bet ween the buyer and seller injurious to his employer, and no Court of Justice vrould compel him to disclose it. The Earl of LIVERPOOL—I do not know where the ob jection goes to; but I want to get at the fact, namely, whe ther her Royal Highness purchased an estate and gave it CO Bergami ? The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the witness might be ask ed whether he knew that any person Ourchased an estate for her Royal Highness. Then be might be asked if the purchase was made by her consent. The Earl of LIVERPOOL.—I wish to ask Mr. Hownam whether he knows the Barona estate to belong to Bergami ? I hare heard it does. 1) 0 you know whether Bergau;i is in possession of the Villa Barona ?—I do not, at this moment. I ask whether he ever has been in possession ?—I believe he was in possession, but I do not know it. Was it not called the Villa Berganai ?—I think it ryas. he Marquis of LANSDOWN.-1 wish to know whether the Countess Oldi slept in a separate tent during the journey to Jerusalem ?—The Countess had a separate tent during that journey ; but whether she slept in Zt or with the chambermaids I do not know. When you say her Royal Highness and Bergami may have been walking arm in arm on the deck of the polacca, do you mean to say the Princess leaned on Ilre arm of Bergami ? Yes. During the time she was on board the polacca, did her Royal Highness ever lean on your arm in the same manner ? It is very possible; 1 do not recollect the time, but her Royal Higliness has walked arm in arm with me very often. The Earl of LAUDERDALE objected to the manner in which the witness gave his last answer. He first expressed his general doubt whether the Princess ever walked arm in arm, and then said she had walked arm in arm with him se veral times. he Noble Lord then asked,—During the period of your residence in Italy, have you ever seen any entertain ments in which her Royal Highness or other persons wore the dress of Harlequin and Columbine, and sustained those characters in the same manner as its this country ?—All I cart say is, that I have seen Louis Bergami with Harlequin's dress. More than once , —No more than once. Can you state whether. you have seen the part of Harle quin sustained in Italy in the satue manner as in England ? Nu; 1 do not think 1 ever did. • Lord COMBERMERF,.—You have stated that several other persons besides Bergami might have slept under the tent on board the polacca; on those occasions, when you be lieve Bergami slept under the tent, did any third person, male or female, sleep under the tent do not know. Can yon swear you never saw Bergami kiss her Royal. Highness ?—I do swear I never saw Bergami kiss her Royal Highness. The Earl of LIMERICK—I understand the witness to say it was necessary a person should sleep under the tent with the Princess ?—Yes. How was it necessary?—A woman on a ship's deck at sea is authorized in having some person near her. Should not that person have been a female from her Royal Highness's suite; or could not the Princess have been at tended as a guard from any of her numerous suite, having their hammocks slung on the upper deck I—Persons might have slept in a hammock on deck, but the only persons pro-, per to do so were myself and Captain Flynn. Count Schia vini, unaccustomed to being on board ship, could nut be ex pected to sleep there. The English sailwr was not on board at the time. We might all have slept outside the tent as well as one. _ NVould it not have equally answered the purpose if a female had been there ?—I cannot say as to that. _ _ Had there been any order'given to watch over her Royal Highness ?—No, I don't recollect any. Was there any suspicion entertained by you of the crew, or any person on board ?—None. Then it was nut from apprehension of danger that made you consider it necessary for a male to sleep near her Royal High ness ?—lt was not from any apprehension of danger trom the crew ; 1 looked at the situation ut her Royal Highness. What situation ?—Her Royal Highness was nut to be left sleeping on deck by herself. Then, if I understand, there is, in your opinion, no impro priety in a male person sleeping in the same tent with a fe male, the light being out ?—I did not think there was any im propriety; from the manner in which the hatches were open and the doors below, there was no mystery in it whatever. I beg to ask Mr. Hownam, as a married man, whether he would . object to Mrs. Hownam sleeping in that way, in a dark tent, with a male person in it ?—t trust, every man will look at the conduct pf his wife without making comparisons. You cannot form any opinion on the question do not make any comparison. Mr. BROUGHAM wished to qualify the answer of the wit ness. It was not to be supposed, from the answer, that Mr. Hownam made any comparison between his wife and her Majesty. The Earl of LIMERICK assured the House it was not Lis intention to dray any comparison between the Queen and the wife of any man, nor did he believe that his question admitted that construction. The Noble Earl then said, I beg generally to ask, whether the witness saw any impropriety, situated as the tent was, in a male and female so sleeping together ? do not conceive there was any impropriety. I had been in so many different situations with her Royal Highness iu the course of her travels, that I did not consider it improper. Describe one of those situations ?—The Princess was oblig ed to shelter under a sorry shed, ender which you would nut put cows or horses in this conntry. She was at the same time surrounded by Jews and Turks. In the early part of your examination you said you did not know where Bergan►i slept, after that the witness said he be lieved Bet gami slept in a tent with her Royal Highness; what did be mean by not stating t hat belief eat her ? The question was objected to. The Earl of LIVERPOOL considered it an important and proper question. It was an inference to be drawn from the whole of the evidence. The question was held to refer tcr a matter of opinion, and the witness did not explain. Lord LIMERICK.—In the early part of your examination, you said you had seen the representation of 'eumedies and farces, and you were asked questions about them. You recol lected questions respecting some persons and characters, but, when asked about the Princess playing, you cannot recollect. How du you reconcile your recollection of others and not the Princess of Wales ?—ln my answer I stated all I recollected, and if I recollectrdany thing more respecting herltoyal High ness, I should have had 110 difficulty in- stating it. I wish only to elicit truth, and I ask the•witness, when he says he recollects Louis flergami was dressed as Harlequin, does be nut recollect the dress of the Princess of Wales P I du not. Ditil he see Louis Bergami and the Princess daace together during the evening think Louis Berganii was dressed as Harlequin, and all danced together. I was dressed as a Greek. Do you recollect who played Columbine ?—I do not recol lect it ; if the Princess played it I should recollect it. Does the witness recollect the Princess playing the charac ter of an Automaton ?—Yes. 'What did the Automaton di)? Was it quiet, running, or sitting ?—lt was in a boa standing up. Do you consider this act stated by you consistent with the high dignity of the person of whom you are speaking ?—1 did not think it was derogatory to her Royal Highness's rank, knowing the pleatne her Royal Highness takes in these entei tainments.—lt being four o'clock, the house Adjourned.
