to pay • debt which I never contracted, end el which I ad
not owe a single shilling. I celled Mr. PEW before lac
benches, and I also produced a letter from Capena
Robertson to myself, addressed, "My dear MO-
mour." raising a question is to the persosal
liability of his broker, and sp,fgeling to mY good
nature to arranges compromise. benchers ultimately
decided that the charge was not proved, but, instead of
speaking out like Englishmen, and saying I was not guilty.
they united their verdict with the severe and injurious as-
sertion that I had taken credit for as act which was little
short of romantic generosity. I hope the house will not
blame me for taking this opportunity of telling them what
was the mysterious Robertson cams and what is the reel
meaning of this cruel imputation upon my veracity. Then
there II the Crafte we, in which I was awned,
without a particle of evidence, but simply 011
something which passel is • conversation mem year. ago,
with having deposited shares belonging to certain sharer
holders with Messrs. (butts, the bankers, who advanced
upon them • sum of money which I put into my own
pocket. Now I proved that these shares were voted to me
by the directors as security for advances which I made, but
never got repaid, and twin shilling I got from Items.
Coutes was applied by me to the wants of the company. I
asked Meows. Coutts if they were parties to the intluiry,
and they replied that neither dixectly nor indirey
were they parties to the inquiry. Another grievance under
the present system is that some of the benohers who have
to determine these matters are irregular in their attendance,
and absent during some portion of the inquiry. The hoc.
and learned member for Marro said the evidence was printed,
and that I eossented to the investiption proceeding when
there were lees than • quorum of bendier; but this was
at the eighth meeting, when nearly the whole
evidence had bean given, and when I was completely
exhausted and my heart almost sank within me.
I had been kept before the beechen over a period of six
months, meeting the most frivolous charges, which if made
in any court in the kingdom would has fees hooted down
with scorn and ridicule. I did feel weary sod sick at heart
in consequence of this prolonged and frequently adjourned
inquiry, and I consented to its going on at that time ; but
does that close my mouth from complainind of the tolera-
tion of such a system ? With Regard to the priatall awl-
drift, it is impossible that it can supply the place at a
viva TOM examination, with an opportunity of noes-
examination. (Henn beer.) Besides, the benchers so con-
fined their emminatloq and all the same are mixed up in
such an hiestainale eee sy, that I &grapy one Warne* at
so satisfactory a judgment span the printed evidence as he
would if be had been present and heard the witnesses
speak for themselves. (Hear, hear.) The other case, to
which I will simply refer in plashig, arose out of an alleged
compromiseof an action brought against me some yearn ago.
My answer to the bombers was that I challenged inquiry into
the whole eireumennees of the compromise, sad that if I
had acted imprudeedy or Injudiciously in emessatleg to

Mr. DOVILL mid—lt is utterly impossible in an
(miry extending over fifteen days, the evidence in which
is contained in 700 pages of printed matter, to enter into
the coosideration of every particular one within the limits
of this diecomion. (HOW, hear.) The hon. and learned
member arraigns the lolly to which I belong, sad complains
that we had no right to ester upon the inquiry to which
it has refined, and on that ground asks the house to
deprive the bombers of that power which they have wielded
with satisfaction to the bar and the public for so many
years. iternewefiag the Middle Temple, I will tell the
house what were the grounds on which they thought it their
imperative duty to enter on the inquiry. One charge against
hint was that he had defrauded Mr. Barnard 5001., and that he
bad submitted to the judgment of the court which charged
him with find. An investigation took place before the
members of the Northern circuit. Mr. Barker was exa-
mined, and he said that if his word were doubted, although
be had obtained judgment against the hon. and learned
member, he would withdraw the judgment, and allow him
to bave the case tried before a jury. To this hour the
honourable ax.d learned member has not availed himself
of that offer. To this hour there Is • record in the
court of his admission of fraud. (Mr. Bentont—Then
is an) Whether it is or not it ought to be there. Well,
then, will any hon. member say this was not a matter
which ought to be investigated? (Hear, bear.) I will go
further, arid mak the house whether, in the case of • banister
who holds the position of a judge, the recordership of 'it
borough, an inquiry ought not to take place into those
charges (Hear, hear.) The usual practice is when any
gentleman attains the rank of Queen's counsel that be
should send to his inn the patent granted by the
crown preparatory to being made • bencher. He
did not take that oourse, and I have no hesitation in
stating that rumours reached every member of the bench of
the Middle Temple, and indeed were current in the pro-
fession, that he endeavoured to be appointed • serjeant-at-
law, but had not been suoceedul. It was also well known
that he applied for the rook of Queen's counsel, but did not
obtain it, and that subaoquently, at a critical period
in this house, he bad conferred upon him the
rank of one of her Majesty's counsel. (Opposition cheers.)
Dove the house suppose that on entering upon the
underlowish-
these circumstances the beechen were in-
rorl dby any private feeling or animosity! The benches
were no parties to the making of the charges. I have no
authority to mention the name of the gentleman who sent
the first communication to our body on the subject, but •
communication in reference to the rank of serjeant not having
been conferred on the honourable and learned member
reached us and formed the foundation of our proceedings.
If the circumstances which 'appeared on record came to the
knowledge of the beechen, it was their duty not only to
institute an inquiry, but if they were found to be tine to '
instantly diioar hini, and expel him from the profession.
The batches' did not, however, take his admission on
record ea • conclusive proof, but they allowed
en investigation into all the facts, and gave the
honourable and learned member every opportunity
of clearing himself. They did not find him guilty, but
he complained that they censured him. Surely it they
thought, upon the evidence adduced, that be was deserving
of censure, it was their bounden duty to camel that cen-
sure. (Hear, hear.) The boo. and learned member had
given him version of the different cases. [Mr. Strom:re—
" Your version."] I do not desire to follow him
through those cases • bat they were of the most
serious character. The owe of Cartels Robertson was
neither more nor is than a charge of steeling
securities. The Coutts case amounted to • charge
of appropriating shares is the company to his own purpose.
There WWI also several other charges, some of which have
been mentioned. Can it then be said that be was put on
his trial without any foundation! The bon. and leaned
gentleman objected to the benchera sitting after dinner, but
if he had done so at the time, they would have made
arrangements for sitting in the day. At the ooncluaion of
the one no member of the bench was prepared to pronounce
a judgment upon it, and it was adjourned for a considerable
pencil in order that every bencher might base as own.

awned, I can say that I devoted several days to reeding
it over with the greatest possible can and anxiety.
lamata Is to understand bow the bombers have ex-
ceeded their duty. They took the most lenient view et the
conduct of the hon. and learned gentleman. If he objected
to their decision there was the proper course open to him.
Then was the ordinary tribunal of appeal which exists in
all these cases, an appeal to the judges; and the beechen
in giving their decision gave it remarking that there was
that power of aimed. The hon. and learned gentleman,
however, had not chosen to exercise hi right of appeal, but
has come to this house sad takes the opportunity of • bill

the evidence, and declined it. He bad the choke of two
tribunals of appeal, one the tribunal of the judges, and the
other the pubhc. He declined to appal to the judges, bat
he appealed to the public at tioutmpton, and in three
newspapers it was said that be was honourably acquitted.
He bad the opportunity of bring* the cue before a jury.
He has declined it. The cam has been before the public
more than spear. Since that time Mr. Parker has died. He
has not brought the case to trial, and in consequence of not
bringing the ems to trial the bon. and learned member bee
ceased to be a member of the mess ou his circuit. He did

not appeal Th;To.dges, he did aot appeal to the pnhlic,
he did not publish the evidence which be bad

of this bill he is to come down to the house and present to
the house his new of the subject, end ask the house for a
judgment io his Wear, and against the benchers of the
Inner Trample. I regret that I have been called upon, as
one of the boucle's, to occupy the time of the house that
ought to be devoted to more important mitten. Why did
not the hon. and learned member ask the Homiest/eta'',

to direstt an investigation, in order to see whether it wai
right that he should retain his ottice of recorder! Why did
he not come and ask for a committee of inquiry whether he

was not an office held daring the pleasure of go-
vernment. lt was the duty of the beechen of
the Middle Temple to institute an inquiry. They
had done so, and the result of the inquiry
was that in the opinion of the benehees the hon. and
learned gentleman was perfectly qualified to act as Queen's
counsel and to act as a member of the bar. Under these
circumstances it never occurred to bim that it was his duty
to institute an inquiry to ascertain whether it was right that

Mr. BOVILL explained that he did not intend to oast the
slightest blame on the right hon. baronet.
Sir G. BOWYER said none of the arguments. that were
adduced isi favour of the second reading had been shalom.
With regard to the charges against the hon. and learned
member for Southampton, if they were true they ought to
have been made ten years before. The Mechem had in het
absolved the hon. and learned member from all the charge.,
but they accompanied that decision with a censure, which
reminded him of the famous jury who brought in a verdict
of not guilty, but mid they trusted the prisoner would not
do it again. Acting on the suggestion that had been made
to him he would withdraw the bill, but he pledged himself
to introduce another bill on the same subject.
The question was then put that the bill be reed a second
time, and was negatived without a division.
• JURIES BILL.

The house having gone into committee on this bill,
Mr. HENLEY add the bill was of same importance, and
he hoped the Secretary of State would inform them whether
he was satisfied with the provisions of the bill.
Sir G. GREY maid he thought that on the whole the bill
might ben useful bill.
Clauses 1 to 6 were agreed to without observation. On
clause 7,
Mr. HENLEY objeded to the jury lists being trans.
mated by post as proposed, and said at present they were
delivered by a cossa-tablu'who made oath this they had not
been tampered with. He should like to hoer the opinion of
the Secretary of State on this provision.
Sir G. GREY observed that it was a quarter to six o'clock,
when by the miles of the Louse the matter in hand most be
postponed.
The Cskinnsir was then ordered to report progress, and
the house resumed.

This case, which bee recently been before this emu% and
hes been meet elaborately argued, hes foe its object the
establishment of a patent takes out by Frank Clark
for the purifying of gas which it is alleged has beesin-
fringed by the defendant. The matter came before this
oourt on • motion for an injunction to restrain the Weed-
ants frem earrying on a process of purifying pe, which it
was alleged
.was that of the plaintiff, to which he bad ea
azaluelve nOt under his patent. Oa a preekos
ciocesion the Lord Chancellor dissolved the im whisk
bad been granted by Vice-Chaneellar W and the case
stood over for hearing. Bins the ease was before lee
court on the motion for jejune:aka the defendants have
pat in their answer, and both parties have Glad ferther
evidence. The answer again sets up a patent taken oat by
one Heard, under which the defendants say that their proem
was carried on, and not under the plaiatiff 's ; and they
generally resist the claim of the plaintiff to the
exclusive right he claims. The matter now came
on on a motion for a decree. The points involved
are in substance whether the term precipitated oxide in
to be limited to an artificial and does not extend to a rr
tonal production ; if so limited, whether the purifying
material used by the defendants is a precipitated oxide, and
whether the renovation of the defendants' material would
produce an artificial oxide within the kerns of the patent.
Mr. Bolt, Mr. Grove (of the common law bar), and Mr.
Marten, appeared for the plaintiff ; Bir H. Cairns and Mr.
Driver for the defendants.
The ease was not oonelnded whim the court rose.
