LORDS' COMMITTEE OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL.
DISMISSAL OF A COLONIAL JUDOIL—Their lordships
(there being present Mr. Labouchere, Earl of Granville,Lord
Grey, Lord Campbell, aid Sir E. Ryan): oat yesterday for
the purp.se of resuming the inquiry into the ercumstances
attendaut on the dismitsil of Mr. Langslow from the office of
judge in Ceylon 'onto years back. At the sitting of the
court,
Mr. Langslow spreared in person, and prayed that the
case might not now be gone into, but might be p :st paned to
some future, but no distant, day. lie had only received
notice of their lordships' determination to resume the case
late on Monday eight. ar.d he had at once put himself in
communication with Mr. Serjeant Mooning and Mr. M. D.
Hill, whose professional aesistance he had had the benefit of
on the lost occasion. Mr. Serjeant Manning, however, was
unable to attend, as he had fixed to hold a county court on
this day, and it was impossible for him to delay
the suitors who were engaged in the numerous
causes set down for hearing. As regarded Mr.
Hill, he regretted that indisposition would prevent his
attendance ; but, besides th 11, there were other grave reasons
why it was desirable that a postponement should take plate.
In the first place, be wished to piece before their lordships
several supplemental letters and documents which had come
to his knowledge recently only as having been communi-
cated to the Colonial-office. These, he thought, were of a
nature calculated to throw great light on his cane, as papers
which were omitted when tie others were produced, and
which were now in print. Among those was a letter from
Mr. Buller, the Queen's Advocate, to the colonial secretary ;
and with reference to this, it was his wish to give that
,tea Leman notice of his intention to comment on it, in order
that he might a'tend if be saw fit so to do. This notice,
perhaps, it would be better,should be given through the offi-
cer of the court.
Lord Grey here interposed, and stated that Mr. Buller
bad sailed to India.
Mr. Lingslow.—That would, of course, prevent his attend-
ance ; but, besides that, there were weighty reasons why the
additional' papers should be taken into consideration.
The President of the Council having ordered the room to
be cleared. strangers withdrew, and on their readmission,
Lord Grey inquired fur the papers, which were accordingly
handed in, presenting a serious addition to the mass of corre-
spondence already in print.—Lord Grey inquired why, as
ts
they were at all even in Mr. Langslow's possession' if they
were necessary to bis defence, he had not included them in
the first instance?
Mr. Langslow was ignorant whether be could make use of
his copies, as great misconception existed as to the functions
of the court. As soon, however, as he discovered the origi-
nals at the Colonial.office, he wall impressed with their im-
portance, and sought now to use them.
After some further discussion, Lord Campbell said that
their lordships were naturally anxious, is a cue of sach im-
portance to Mr. Langslow, to afford every opportunity for
the supply of evidence. Resting, therefore, on his assurance
and judgment as to the ma.enality of these papers, their
lordships would receive them.
Mr. Langslow had considered the subject carefully and had
selected those now handed in from a great mass, with that
view.—The President then stated that their lordships would
meet again on Friday at half-past 11.—Lord Campbell:
When this discussion must be confined to the new matter.—
Mr Langslow cheerfully assented to that stipulation ; and
so the matter ended.
