Mr. Henson, jun. said, that Lieutenant Gore was is 50
distant a part of t►e country that sufficient time had not
'lamed to crionwiuoirate with kiwi, and to allow time fur his
ratans. He would certainly be present on the next day.
The Foreman considered it as very strange and disorderly
to have the same apology put in twice. He doubted whe-
ther they ought to weir, it, after the assurances which had
been given that Ideutetsout Gore wonla be present this day.
Mr. Adolphus obaelosil„ t►at be hail been from town eve►
since he met them last, and arrived at twelve u'clitek to day;
whatever had been done is his absence he could sot have
participated is the respousibility which might attach to it.
A desultory conversation ensued, its which several of the
Jurymen urged the propriety of adjourning over till Lieut.
G.•re should be forthcoming.
The Comae, said that they would do better to examine
the officers in atteudauce.
Seine reflections were made on the motive which could
have tridneed say 0 the officers summoned to attend to
withhold their Kraemer.
Mr. Adolph.. objected to such ressaikr as quite irregular.
If the summonses were nut obeyed it was fur the Coroner to
',force them, and sot fur presumptions to be formal that
obstructions were wilfully thrown in the way to prevent the
courseofjustice._

Mr. !Mam wished the Coroner to ask the Learned Ge•o-
tkman for shat parties he attended, sod if he had evidence
to off; r likely to assist is elucidating the subject before them,
sad if he meant to offer i ?

Mr. Adolphus replied, that he was waiting on behalf of
those putout its the regiment who might be implicated in
the proceedings of the Jury. He had wino-taws to call, but
the prueleict. of their evidence mustdflpen4 ou what would
take place after that.
Mr. Blakie thew said, that he had 'been requested to ad.
dress the Coroner on this subject by his brother Jurors. He
would suppose that there was no spiebteua as to the main fact,
sod thar the clients of the Learned Counsel were really known
to be implicated to their proceedings. Their object was to in•
vessigste she truth. Did Mr. Adolph'sa meats by his pre•
metier to assist them in that purpose.- i HMI, these could be
au vesy !real objection to it. But suppo.e the evidence
were to point %sly dirt etly at one of its clients, why thru
beyond doubt it world be his duly as an Adsocate to screen
hid patty, and do every thing to render the rase obscure snd
difficult. The obvious tendency of his labours would thew
be so ohylrtect, and if possible pollute the stream of justice,
Supposiog after nll that the chieats of Mr. Adolphus, au im•

By the Jury.—Lienteaant Gore had the command of the
datachineut stationed at Comberland-gate—it was under my
curnasand. Lientenaut Gore does not belong to goy troop.
I don't know of any usher soaker who assisted him. I know
nothing about Lieutenaut Gore having leave of ahaeace. It
is certainly usual for officers tu take their pistols out un
those dtt4chnients Lieutenant Terry commanded Hyde
I'ark corner-gate. thiginally it was, I believe, commanded
by a culposo!, but I can only answer fur my non detach-
ment. 1 *as at Hyde Park-gate myself during the time of
that service. 1 saw the proceasioa was going into the Palk,
and conducted my sqoadrua after it. I don't know Iwo the
soldiers upened the gates. My Ant orders were, to place
inybelf under the civil power, to assist io conducting the
pruccanun, and act under it. Those orders were not

and I submit vriwther I ought triete called on to make them

A discussion took place. The Comber said that he was

Wittiest rrsumed.—l received orders, both oral and in

any private orders were. I did not bear the Riot Art read ;
1 accompanied the proctsoioss as far as King.streei. Edg-
ware-read; previously to my coining through Cumberland-
gate, 1 was assailed for a considerable time with 111110ek-bat•
and stones—and the attack was so violent after we passed
the gate, I was astonished how the men tumid keep on t►eir
horses; from that ustiment she lives of the men were in
constant and incessant danger. As I conawarded the
party, it is fsir to ;unwise dust the sliders, if auy were
given fur firing, must have her u given by me. As the
answer might criminate one, I decline giving any upon
the subject. To my knowledge there was nu *ring in Oz.
