TIIE LONDON JOURNALS. ZeTiTRACTS FROM TILE D AIL:' MORNING PAPERS, June 9-0 1822... • [NEW. TIMES.J There was. not an arrival from any part of the Continent yesterday.—Consols for the Account remained perfectly steady again yesterday, and little or no business was done. The opening price was 801, and they closed at the same, not withstanding 804 s were quoted in the course of the a fternoon.—The Foreign Stock-market also continues very heavy, and the prices remain the same, lvith the exception of Spanish Bonds, which declined 2 per cent. leaving them at 6211 z. - • The House of Lords was engaged last night in the further discussion of the Marriage Act Amyndment Bill.—ln the House of Commons Mr. Daly postponed his • motion respecting the Tithes in Ireland. Mr. Hume, however, took up the question, and moved that the House should resolve to take the subject into considera tion next Session. An amendment was moved by Sir J. Newport, pointing more distinctly at a commutation. After a debate, which lasted until a late hour, Sir J . Newport's motion was negatived by a majority of 7:—(tbid.) [THE TIMES.] A Genc;ral Court of Proprietors was held yes- 4 terday at the, India House, when a subject came , under consideration, the natural interest of which was much enhanced by that of the questions connected with it in the course of the dis cussion to which it gave rise. A proposal appears to have been made by Government, that the Compau should wave that article in their charter which excludes from the pri vate trade to India all ships not measuring 350 tons and upwards. The fact, we apprehend, is generally admitted, that the above limit affixed to the private trade has for some time operated as a serious obstacle to its success ; and that if con tinued in its present form, a decline, if not a total cessation, of the trade, must follow at no dis tant period. The above-mentioned proposition of Ministers, however, was met, and not un fairly, by resolutions to this effect :*-1. That the stipulated size of India traders is a part of the compact with the Company, to which the faith of Parliament stands pledged. 2. That if the Com pany concedes this point, it must be on obtain ing reciprocal concessions—one extending to India-built ships the full rights of British re gistry—the other admitting East India sugars to home consumption on equal terms with those of the West India colonies. The two questions thus raised are of extreme importance. It would be absurd t.;) look at them under the mere aspect of problems in economy or colonial policy. The value of every maxim concerning the affairs of Government 'must be resolved by its subserviency to the real interests and welfare of the • nation to which it is applied ; and the decision of Parlia ment upon, the demands of the Company must be guided. less by a regard to general principles, than by considering what measure will best protect the sum total of the interests at issue. The compact with the Company must be maintained inviolate —that is clear enough indeed ; but it seems to be the only part of this series of questions which is not open to some degree of perplexity and conflict. The admission of India-built ships to registry, as if they had been built in England, is required on the ground that ships built in all the colonies of Great Britain 'are allowed the same advantage ; and that by some evasion of the letter of the charter, as alleged by Mr. Grant, India-built ships are elbowed out even from the coasting trade of the Peninsula, which is carried on in great part by British bottoms. There was a time, undoubtedly, when the shipping interest at home would have raised a powerful outcry against this new influx of eastern built merchantmen to the British register; but that opposition, it appears - , has become less animated. and for a me lancholy reason—viz. that what 'fragment of its former prosperity still adheres to the shipping interest of this kingdom is not worth protecting. Be this as it may, the impression of the Chair man yesterday was that strong hopes existed of a disposition in Government to yield the required privilege; to the East India built ships; but that with regard to sugars, the Treasury wished to pause for a year before any steps should be-taken towards an equalization of the duties. [BRITISH PRESS.] The Irish Police Bill, we are happy to state will, when reproduced in the House of Commons come forth divested of - some of its terrors. Ii has been denominated out of doors a Bill for the encouragement of Absenteeship, a system ruinous to any country under any circumstances. In Ire land this system ha t s proved fatal, and unfortu nately the temper and habits of the gentry, with all their romantic feelings and professed love of country, tend to an aggravation of the evil.— The spirit manifested in the House of Commons On the first blush of this business, has produced a salutary effect. The Government of Ireland, we understand, is not to consist of an Ilospodar, with his subordinate officers, alias constables, as proposed for the Turkish provinces of Wallachia and Moldavia. The Gentry of Ireland, however defective in number, talent, and education, are not to be entirely set aside as mere ciphers in society, or something worse. They are to be retained in the system as a set of beings worth cultivating, and whose stake in the country may possibly render them, with all their faults and defects, not totally insensible to its interests. [MO RNING CHRONICLE.] The affair of Irish Tithes was brought on last night by Mr. Hume, on Mr. Daly consenting to abandon the Motion of which he had given witice.--Mr. Hume disclaimed all wish to de prive the Bishops or any of the Clergy, during Their lives, of the property of which the existing institutions bad put them in possession. But this will not satisfy the pretended friends of the Church. They contend that all interference with Tithe is little better than sacrilege, and that the Landowners have not a better title to their estates than the Clergy have to the tenth part of the fruits of them.—The foundation of all right is the benefit of society. The reason why certain persons are allowed to hold the Soil of a country, to the exclusion of all the rest of the community, is that the public benefit is supposed to be thereby most effectu ally promoted. But there is this material dis tinction between property in land and tithes, that while the former is' beneficial to the community, the latter is injurious to it. The appropriation of -land insures for it that degree of care which is necessary to make it properly available. But the argument of the tenth of the fruits of it can in no way promote the benefit of society. So far from benefiting society, it injures it most materially, by raising the price of food to consumers, as the cultivation of the ground must get from them the amount of this tax, over and above the ordinary profits of capital. If there were no tithe, the price of food would be lower by all the amount of it. As the population of a country increases, inferior lands must be taken into cultivation, and the natural price of food necessarily rises. This is an inevitable evil, and therefore must be borne with. But unfortunately tithe rises also with the rise of the natural price of food, and the people must suffer a continually augmenting impost in this shape as their ability to bear it diminishes. [MORNING POST.] We would at present merely direct the notice of our readers to the singular turn which the proceedings took last night on the subject of Irish Tithes. Mr. Daly, the Member for Gal way, whose motion to pledge Parliament that this question should be taken into consideration early next Session, with a view to adequate relief, at the suggestion of Mr. Peel, and on a satisfactory understanding from Mr. Goulburn,' , , that something would be done immediately on Parliament meeting again, consented to withdraw his motion for the present. A few of the frish Members on the Opposition side were adverse to this conduct, but Mr. Hume felt the disappointment most. He had come down to the House with an armful of in formation gratuitously supplied from the other side of the Channel and every where else; and to be under the necessity of carrying back so perishable a commodity was not to be endured. The Member for Aberdeen, therefore, watched his moment, and forthwith emptied out the whole reservoir of facts, assertions, and conjectures, which he had been able to collect, in one jum ble of " confusion worse confounded." The lion. Gentleman's object, it seems, was to get a Committee on Irish tithes. Sir J. Newport moved an amendment, distinctly pledging the House to take up the subject early in the next Session ; but to this Mr. Goulburn objected, on the ground that such a step would be productive of great mischief, and could not effect any useful purpose. Ultimately, Mr. Hume withdrew his motion ; but Sir John Newport persisting in his, a division took place, when it was negatived by a majority of 7'2 to 65. The House sat till near three o'clock this morning.—ln the Lords, some further progress was made in the discussion o the clauses in the Marriage Act Amendmen Bill; and the Committee is to sit again this day [MORNING HERALD.] In our Paper of yesterday we gave a report of a dinner at Kennington. It was for the purpose of celebrating Sir Robert Wilson's return as Member of Parliament for Southwark. The title of the Meeting was " Purity of Election Meet ing." As usual at Dinner Meetings, whether of an aristocratical or of a democratical descrip-1 tion, the mutual congratulatory complimentary speeches were made, in which, however, there was nothing of novelty, though much of va riance. Sir Robert Wilson alluded to the Greeks, and more than insinuated that our Government should have interfered in their behalf. We think that, in this business, the Government have acted wisely ; for had they sent 100,000 men under the command of Sir Robert, to rescue that country from the tyranny , of the Turks, it might cost John Bull 100,000,0001. of money ; and the Greeks might afterwards thank us as little for our interference in the matter, as the United States' people have thanked the Spa niards for their assistance in throwing off John Bull's yoke. In another part of Sir Robert's speech, he maintained that national faith should be preserved ; but how can that be done, if, for the sake of the Greeks and others, we incur fresh debts, and consequently increase the annual charge ? As it is, it is as much as the Government can do to raise sufficient money to pay the Government and debt charge's. Mr. llobhou-se and other Gentlemen recommended a reduction of taxation. If the present taxation be scarcely sufficient to pay the expenditure of the Army, Navy, &c. and the interest of the Na tional Debt (which latter it is necessary to ac complish, if Sir Robert's advice as to the Na tional Faith is to be taken), how would it be possible to do justice to our brave defenders ; preserve the national faith inviolate; and reduce the taxes still further, agreeably to Mr. Hob house's recommendation ? We still, however, leave these contradictions to Mr. llobhouse and Sir Robert to settle. SHOCKING MURDER.—A most horrible crime was committed at St. Quentin-sur-Isere, in the department of Isere, on the night of the Bth of last month. A fine young woman, of irreproach able character and exemplary piety, was cut in pieces after her bosom had been laid open and torn out, and her bloody and quivering limbs were scattered and thrown into the Isere and different branches of that river, in the hope of more easily avoiding the pursuit of justice. But Providence, which seldom leaves great crimes unpunished, so ordefed it, that one of the limbs and the bust of the unfortunate victim were thrown upon the banks of the Isere, from an at tentive examination of which by the officers of health, further light has been thrown upon the frightful circumstances which accompanied the perpetration of the crime. Justice has already raised the mysterious veil with which it was en veloped.—(French. Paper.) FOR THE SUN. LETTER XIII. Ma. EDlTOR—Having, as stated in my last letter, disbanded the Protestant militia, raised by the Duke of ORMOND, and embodied one entirely Popish, the next step of JAMES and his Lieuten ant was to summons a Parliament that would be subservient to their views of establishing Popery, and its concomitant, arbitrary power. Accord ingly, the titular Bishop of Clogher, a man in every respect meet to be Secretary to Tyrconnel, addressed circular letters to the Sheriffs of Coun ties, and heads of Corporations, all then Papists, in which were inclosed the writ of election, with a recommendation of the person he chose should be returned ; so that four Protestants only were elected for counties, cities, or boroughs. The University, indeed, returned two Protestaffts, Sir John Meade and Mr. Coghlan, barristers, who in a short time discontinued their attend ance, finding they could not stem the torrent. — Out of sixty-nine Protestant temporal Peers, four or,five only remained in Ireland ; and, of twenty two spiritual Lords, only seven. Of these last, three were incapacitated from attending by age and infirmity, but the remaining four, Doctor Dopping, Bishop of Meath, Doctor Otway, Bishop of Ossory, Doctor Digby, Bishop of Limerick, and Dr. Wettenball, Bishop of Cork, " were obliged to appear upon their writs directed to them ; and King James was forced sometimes to make use of them to moderate, by way of counterpoise, the madness of his own party, when their votes displeased him ; but in- general, they protested against most of the Acts, and entered their dissent :" for it is worthy of notice that, anxious as James was to establish Popery under arbitrary Power, he com plained, that 44 they rammed many things down his throat," inasmuch as it wil4 show our modern Advocates of Popery, the impossibility of re straining a Faction, actuated by superstitious fanaticism. " Of thirty-seven Papist Lords, there appeared, besides the new created Lords, twenty-four at times, of which fifteen were under attainder by indictments or outlawries ; two or three were under age ; and there re mained only six or seven capable of sitting and acting." This packed Popish Parliament " sat from the 7th May to the 20th July following (1688) ; and in that short time entirely destroyed the Settlement of Ireland, and outed both the Protestant Clergy and Laity of their Freeholds and Inheritances." James having abdicated the Throne of Eng land, the first Act of this Parliament was to re cognize his title to the Crown of Ireland ; which, by an Act, passed in the, reign of Henry VIII., had been annexed to that of England ; and they very soon after repealed that Act. They next repealed the Acts of Settlement and Explana tion; and the Bill for that purpose was hurried through the House of Commons in three days, theieby debarring those who would suffer from it, from any opportunity of appealing for relief ; but remonstrance against so great injustice and cruelty would not have met with more attention .from, a Parliament predetermined to crush the Protestants, or to force them to abandon their country, than that did from James, which had been presented to him by the Earl of Granard.— By this Act-of Repeal, the Preamble to which fidly justffied the horrid and bloody Rebellion in the year 1641, all persons who were in rebel lion in England, Scotland, or Ireland, against King James, on the Ist of August, 1688, or who had corresponded with rebels since that time, forfeited their estates and properties. On that part of this Act affecting those who had corres ponded with Rebels, Harris thus remarks, in his Life of King William :—" By which clause al " most every Protestant in the Kingdom who " could write had forfeited his estate ; for the cc packets going constantly between Dublin and " London, from August to March, 1689, few had " friends in England or the North but corres " ponded with them. Every packet during that " time was searched, and vast heaps of letters " laid by, which were now produced in evidence 44 in the House of Commons, against such as ap " peared in behalf of their absent friends." On his accession to the Throne, James 44 sent " over the Lord Clarendon as Lord Lieutenant, " in the year 1685, who arrived here Jana 10.— "He gave him in charge to declare, that he would 44 preserve the Acts of Settlement and Explanation " inviolable : and accordingly the Lord Claren c' don made this declaration in Council; and " further gave it in charge to all the Judges, who " solemnly declared on the Bench in their re " spective Circuits, the King's firm intentions to " preserve those Acts, and in them the Protestant " English interest in Ireland." The provisions made by former Parliaments, from the reign of Queen Elizabeth, for the Pro testant Clergy, .were repealed by this Popish Parliament, and the arrears cut off. They also re-enacted the writ " de heritico comburendo." Finally, they passed an Act of Attainder against one Duke, two Archbishops, seven Bishops, seventeen Earls, seven Countesses, forty-six Vis counts and Barons, two Viscountesses, thirteen Ld,dies, thirt y ' -four Baronets, fifty-one Knights, eighty-three clergymen, and two thousand one hundred and eighty-two Esquires and Gentle men, besides yeomen, and persons of inferior rank. And we learn from Archbishop's King's History - , that " when Sir Richard Nagle, Speaker " of the House of Commons, presented that Bill '" to King James for his Royal Assent, he told " him that many were attainted in that Act by " the House of Commons, upon such evidence as " fully satisfied the House : the rest of them, " he said, were attain ted upon Common Fame,"—a speech so very brutish, observes the Archbishop, "that I can hardly persuade myself that I shall " gain credit to the relation ; but it is certainly " true, the Houses of Lords and Commons, of " their pretended Parliament, are. witnesses of " it; and let the world judge what security Pro " testants could have of their, lives, when so " considerable a lawyer as Sir Richard Nagle " declares on so solemn an occasion, a4l King " James with his Parliament approves, that i '. CommonFameisa sufficient evidence to deprive I" without hearing so many of the Gentry, Nobi -1 " My, and Clergy of their lives and fortunes, " without possibility of pardon." The four Bishops, already named, were not present when this Act of. Attainder was passed ; nor were they lallowed afterwards to enter their protest against it. The speech, however, of the Bishop of Meath, delivered in the House of Lords on the 4th of June, 1689," on the Bill of Repeal of the Act of Settlement," is recommended to the attention of those Legislators who are so desirous of breaking down the bulwarks and fences erected-by the wisdom of our ancestors, for the preservation of our glorious Constitution in Church and State; and the following passage may he applied either to the insidious Bill now pending in the House of Lords, or to that with which we are threatened in the next Session.— " Your Lordships have now under your consi " deration a Bill of great weight and import " ance : for the future prosperity or ruin of the " King and Kingdom depends upon it :—a Bill " that unsettles a former foundation (upon which " this Kingdom's peace and flourishing was " superstructed,) and designs to erect another in "its stead, the success whereof is dubious and cc uncertain." " After so flagrant a breach of faith on the " part of James, and after such tyranny, cruelty, " oppression. and injustice, on the part of his Popish Parliament, it is not to be wondered at " that the Protestants, many of whom had wit " nessed, and all had heard of, the horrible re " hellion of 1641, should associate in defence of " their religion, their liberty, and every thing " dear to man, with the determination to resist " the authority of a Prince who had thus violated " his coronation oath. Add to this, the un " paralleled cruelty of one of James's Generals " (Rosen,) in collecting the Protestant inhabi " iants of the county of Londonderry, without " distinction of age or sex, under the walls of the " City, at that time besieged by a Popish army, " where the unhappy sufferers were slaughtered " by the fire from their friends, as well as by " that of their enemies. This instance of Popish " mercy and forbearance, I say, naturally excited " in the minds of our ancestors an apprehension " that the dreadful scenes of 1641 would be re " acted in Ireland."—(Letters by a Protestant.) Such were the tyranny, cruelty, oppression, and injustice, from which King William 111., or glorious memory, rescued the Protestants of Ire land ; and so sensible were they of the blessings of religious and civil liberty, secured to them by his means, that they held his name in the utmost veneration ; and, until lately, and with the exception of a few Apostates, whose minds have been illumined by the new day-star in our religious and political hemisphere,—their de- I sceiidants have shewn every mark of respect and gratitude to his memory. In the year 1710, when a popish mob mutilated the equestrian Statue, erected in College Green, in the City of Dublin, the House of Commons, after resolving " that all persons concerned in that barbarous fact are guilty of the greatest intolerance, base ness and ingratitude," addressed the Viceroy, praying his Excellency to issue a Proclamation for discovering the authors of this " villainy ;" and, in a prompt compliance with their request, the Speaker, attended by the whole House, pre sented an address to his Excellency, in which they declared that " his memory must ever be " dear to all men, except those who desire to " bring our religion, laws, liberties, and proper " ties, into the same danger again, from which " his courage and conduct so bravely and season " ably rescued them. And such we, unani " tnously declare all those to be, who, on any "pretence whatsoever, endeavour to reflect on " the justice of the late happy Revolution, 64 the memory of God's great instrument " in effecting it, or the necessary means made " use of in bringing it about." And a pro- clamation, issued by the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council, on the 21st of May, 1792, states, " that seditious writings and persons had en " deavoured to vilify and bring into contempt " the wise and wholesoMe provisions made at the " time of the glorious Revolution." But it has been reserved for a new era, that a Judge shall gravely declare from the Bench that it is a breach of the laws of the land to drink the memory of " that great Prince who delivered this nation from Popish superstition and French slavery, and to whose reign we are indebted for those inestimable laws which exclude all Popish successors, and settle the Crown on the most illustrious house of Hanover :"—that declaration too, accompanied with a boast, that he had ad vised the Attorney General to file an ex officio information against an Alderman of the City of Dublin for having drank it, adding, " that, if brought before him, he would strip him of his aldermanic gown and borrowed plumes !!!" Surely, Mr. Editor, if we believed in the trans migration of souls, we might think that that of James's Chief Justice, Nugent, animated the form of this Judge ; from whom, whatever I might not have expected, I certainly would have looked for more talent, as he was the only man raised to the Bench by cc all the talents." I beg it may be distinctly understood that any remarks I have made or shall make, as to the Romish Faith, are to be considered as regarding it, in a political point of view, hostile and dan gerous to our religious and civil establishments. 1 am not an enemy to any man on account of his religion ; and I would leave to every person the liberty of worshipping God according to the dic tates of his own conscience : But I would guard, with the most jealous care, the Protestant Re formed Church, established by law, and so in terwoven with our civil constitution, " that the former cannot be endangered without hazarding the safety of the latter "—alike against the open attacks of her avowed enemies, and the insidious and more dangerous wiles of her pretended friends, who, according to military tactics, are endeavour ing to approach the citadel of the Constitution, by sapping and mining the out-works,—those acts enacted by the wisdom, and through the dearly-bought experience of our ancestors. To that Church I am most firmly attached—from reason, reflection, and conviction ; and, in the words of the Rev. Edward Cooper, I may say, that " I love her less for her own sake, than for " the sake of that noble army of martyrs and C 4 confessors, by whose blood her foundations cc were cemented, and in whose spirit her articles, " homilies, and liturgy, were framed. I regard " her as primitive in her institutions—evanget " cal in her doctrines—and highly devotional an u " spiritual in all her services. I look upon her a s " admirably designed and adapted for building " up the invisible , Church of Christ ; and I be' " lieve that, through her instrumentality, non/ " of her children attain to an elevation of cha' " racter, and to a holiness of heart and life, " which no other church can exceed." Cork, June 4, 1822. SIDNEY. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 19. THE KING V. COLLINS AND OTHERS. Mr. SCARLETT junior and the COMMON SERGEANT were heard against the rule for a new trial. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL also addressed the Court in.re" ply, contending, that the venerable Magistrate, Mr. Collins , had not been influenced by any corrupt or partial motive. „, At ten o'clock Mr. Justice BEST left th e C our t, and th e Judges having to sit in the Exchequer Ch am b er , f u rther pro' ceedings in the cause were postponed till to-morrow. PREROGATIVE COURT, JUNE 19. - HIS LATE MAJESTY'S WILL.—IN RE OLIVE. _ 1 This case being expected to come on, th e C our t was crowd `r at an early hour. At ten o'clock Sir Join( Nrcnol. his seat, and shortly after Dr. Dorrsox and Dr. Lusur l /m - ' TON, accompanied by General DESSEUX, soi-disant Cat — FITZ STRATHERN, cousin of OLIV E , an d o th ers , entereul e Dr. DODSON addressed the Court, and observed, that on previous occasions he considered that the Learned Advocaw conceded certain points, inasmuch as they were not disputed. Sir C. ROBINSON observed, that he never a ssum ed even t° make a concession, and from what he said on previous oce a " sions it never ought to be thought that he attempted a comPZ mise ; he then abstained from observations, because, in stage, it might, in such a delicate question, be injurious to parties. Sir JOHN Nrcnor..—" As far as the Court is concerned, was considered that on account of an a r rangemen t betwee n ,... th a r e parties, the hearing was postponed, b u t I rea ll y d o not Y."' which of the parties made the application." Dr. Lusmrszuw orr—" The King's- Advocate at all eve nts acquieiced in any arrangement that was made." the Dr. DODSON commenced an address, and contended that a z King of this realm had power to devise to an y i n di v idual property as belonged to his private purse, and that it to e . i , be absurd to suppose that he should be denied the privilege "',3 lowed to his meanest subjects. The L earne d Doctor cited passages from Bland and Swinburne, the most remarkable sil; thorities on the subject ; they had contended, and it never h t.", been contradicted, that all persons not forbidd en by law we'„ capable of making a bequest; the only excepti o ns being ot a li ned women, infants, and lunatics; but the King of Eng lan . ... was not one of the exceptions made by those learned writers. It had been said that the document had been dormant 40 y ; this was an argument in favour of the applicant, if the t erm of it were considered, and the royal and privat e a cts of benevo lence of his late Majesty were taken into a c c o u nt. Besi de ec s : this document was witnessed by three p ersons o f high reap tability, who were known at that time to b e i n th e confide li bf of the King.—The Learned Doctor concluded his address co ,:es n DTtani t h en :H d ten i t n Aht g Geoe t f h wAh a ilin t isp th lna e wot mo tion . o ri t eh i a o ajed n easi o t ybd u e g oup h nre t oto t o hpr geo b eus e ant I m hdneee a d d Ts e iand i er b :d s h o . : I ,n u iad t e. —s quotedt v Li n . a n s tne led veral venerable authorities, which, he argued, demon the power possessed by kings to bequeath their propertY , , an c a te r i , was for the Learned. Advocate to shew that his Royal Na — t he or his predecessor,' was divested of that power.—Henry Second had made two wills, and the will of Henry the fifth ere been proved and probate granted, the witnesses to which Il ue the Dukes of Bedford and. Gloucester and Earl Warwick. then - referred to the Royal Marriage Act, which passed oht l a ; immediately after the marriage of the Duke of Cumberlal s t he looked in vain for the explanation which militated the validity of the document or the power of the Sovere l f - u . and if the law were silent, the .Court must look to Ordinal/ thorSirities. C. ROBINSON rose to reply. He disclaNed any 0 1:: siou on his part ; he wished fair investigatioh, and not to C lio mit any Act which by his interference would be injurious W et'ld party. The learned Advocate contended that the Court con e, not command the King to come and prove his own signat il i r j i or the signature of his predecessors. He lamented tha t rs , he Learned Friends had cited so many passages from old write to prove that a King could make a will ; he did not dispote,, t o l right. As his Learned Friends had closed their case, and ': ta , no right to reply, he should endeavour to shew that their a tions were not analagous to the present'case. , Ad' Dr. DODsON—" I deny the assumption of the ICing.s, vocate ; my Learned Friend (Dr. Lushington) has a rig , ,D reply. ,, Sir CCHRISTOPHER—" That is for the consideration o f the Court." He then contended that the paper would been introduced by his Learned Friend, but for the PurP e 's u ee making it a subject of a specific plea. He could intr o n c a something of an historical nature, as well as his 14e ';o. t.. Friend ; but his glossory would not be the same. After q ing Blackstone, and several other writers, he concludedlg. 0 0 serving, that it was not in the power of the Court to decitweter the remedy to be taken by the Princess in the delicate Ms ' before it. Dr. ADAMS followed on the same, side. not lieroof After a short reply from Dr LIT SHINGT tb Sir JOHN NICHOL said he . should take time'to cousi d case, and give judgment on the next Court-day. ~„9 of [The most remarkable circumstance in the proceears 4 o l this day of was the appearance of Oli v e Pri n ce ss Cull wig in tc" herself Court.
