The caste cause on spits before the Court on Tues-
day last.
Oil this occasion, Sir James Crawford prayed
the Court did the further hearing might be again
puttpotied, to give him sufficient time for the pro-
durum, of evidence. and for engaging an Advo-
cate; he said, he was extremely sorry that the
gentlemen and (his wtturioues) !should have
bad the trouble of ctinsisig. He haul engaged I
11. Berryer, the y iunger, as Isis Advocate. but
this gentleman had resigned the cause, giving
as his realism the animosity which his father, M.
Berryer, the elder
(who was engaged in tile 4/0.
fence), had *hewn nu the former day sit speaking
against the Plaintiff.
M. Berryer. the elder—" It is • I cloys
since my soot threw up this case. Hie principles
ere too well !violist' to permit any one to believe
that he could complain of may smiasosity eh, wit by
one. I cle.naild that this case shall now prorerd."
Slr J. Crawford reviewed Isis demand, and insisted
that the case should be put off, out account of Ills
ignorance of the mode of procedure, and the necesw
any of his procuring an Advocate.
The Clerk, however, began to read the charges,
when Sir J. Crawford again required tissue fur ob-
taining the attendance of the Duke of Atigouleine,
the Count Decintws. and the Prince l'allryrand ;
but the King's Cotninissioner opposing it, Sir J.
Cr twford became warm, and. interrupting the read-
ing of the charges. declitred it was impossible for
him to proceed without au advocate.
The Court then appointed an advocate, bat the
Plaiiiiiff would not accept his services.
The Clerk again proceet:ed to read the charges,
when Sir J. Crawford. no longer observing any de-
curum,exclai wed, 4' I see that there is MO disposition
to do me justice. I shall slut remain its a Court
where they proceed su so disgraceful a manner."
• These words excited a great murmur. sui the
King's Cuininithioner demanded that his woods
should be taken down, for the purpose of proceed.
iug against him for the insult.
Tb-J lodge. however, said, that considering Sir
James Crawford to be a foreigner, and probably
not aware of the force of the expressions he had
used, it would be better not to notice them.
Sir Issues Crawford then retired precipitately,
climbing over chairs 11.101 benches.
The charges were read. soil the witnesses called,
but at thrsr the greater part had 'rot emrtrs, un-
der pretence of ondisposition ; those who appeared
were ignorant of the tattler its charge, except a
