1:4 UXHA I, I. GARDENS.

This delightful place of summer amusement celebrated
the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo last night with
the splendour that hat always distinguished these Gardens
since they have been under the management of their present
proprietors. Notwithstanding the weather was exceedingly
inauspicious, the Gardens were very respectably attended,
much better indeed than we could have expected. Amongst
the company we noticed many of the distinguished heroes
who hore.a part in that proud day. In honour of the vic-
tory the fire works were unusually grand. A Battle Sym-
phony and Overture, composed for the occasion by W. H.
Rook, were well performedr by the orchestra ; gu,ooo addi-
tional lamps were introduced. which displayed the words
" " Waterloo;" and altogether the amuse-
ments were of the most attractive and agreeable nature.

Yesterday his Majesty had a **et party to dinner.
The Duke of York, the L)uke of Cambridge, and the
Duchess of Gloucester, vaited the King yesterday.
Yesterday morning the Duke of York and the Duke of
Cambridge inspected a battalion of the Guards in Hyde
Park.
On Sunday the Duke of Cambridge honoured Count and
Countess St. Antonio with his company to dinner at their
resilience in Hanover-square.
The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester gave a grand din-
ner yesterday at their residence in Park-lane.
The Duchess of Gloucester and the Princess Augusta
visited the Duchess of Cambridge yesterday.
The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Leopold spent
Sunday evening with the Duchess of Kent, at her apart-
ments at the King's Palace, Kensington.
Mr. and Lady Louisa Lambton arrived at their scat,
Lambton Hall, on Saturday night last.--The 7'ere Mer-
cury of this week states that Mr. and Lady L. have come
down to the north " to make splendid preparations for the
reception of his Royal/Highness the Duke of York;" and
also that Sir M. W. Ridley will have the honour of enter-
taining the Duke of Sussex. Other journals have con-
tained similar patarrraphs; but we can state that there is
no foundation for ale report tha: their Royal Highnesses
intend visiting the north this year. Mr. Lambton has
between 80 and 100 workmen eartagell in making al-
terations and improvements in and about Lambton Hall.
Nearly the same number have been similarly employed
for the last 13 years, and are likely to continue so for at
least six years longer. When the improvement" now car-
rying on are completed, the honourable gentleman's man-
sion will be one of the most splendid and princely resi-
dences of its kind in the kingdom.—Durham Chronicle.
Sir John Newport has arrived in Dublin.
Dauer LAN e.—Last night Mr. Kean re-appeared for
the first time since his temporary absence, in the character
of Richert! the Third. llie was well received by a good,
but not an overflowing house; and his acting was (as
natal) energetic, but his voice was in no very good condi-
tion, and completely failed in the fourth and fifth acts.
On Saturday night Mr. Kean appeared at the Liverpool
theatre in the part of Shylock for one night only. The
announcement was very.short, and only about half a house
was the receipts of the evening. He was tolerably well
received, and made some apology for his former conduct
there, and intimated that he would appear again in a short
time on these boards previous to his quitting the country.

CARTWRIGII7"I4 MONUMENT.

A public Meeting .was held yesterday at the Crown and Anchor
Tavern, W take itito consideration the best means of increasing the
present subscription 'of SOO/. for the erection of a suitable menu.
ment to perpetuate the memory of the late John Cartwright
' The chair was to hive been taken at one o'clock, but, in conse-
quence of the very few persdns amembled at that hour, it was
thought expedient by the Co.nnsittee that the business of the Meet-
ing shoed nut be proceeded no till a later hour.
At two o'clock, there being about twentyyersens present, Sir
FRANCIS BURDETT was called to the Chap. The Hon. Ban.
said, the object of the Meeting was .such as must interest every
friend to the liberties of his country. The gentleman whose me-
mory it was proposed to perpetuate by a monument bud, after a
hang, and laborious life spent in ti,; must irtive and persevering ex-
ertions for the happioess and freedom of his countrymen, left to
them a legacy which entitled him to their warmest gratitude.
When England was threatened with a french invasion, hie works
had done greet service ; and he at that time proposed measures
which, if adopted, would not only have preserved the then threat-
ened liberties of his country, but would ever after have pentected
them against foreign or domestic enemies. (Applause). Ile had
never read the work. of Major Cartwright without seeing the en-
lightened patriot shining through them. lits *al not a sectarian
patriotism; the gloried in advancing the happiness not alone of this
country, but of all mankind. In fine (said the Honourable
Baronet) he was worthy of the great nation to which he be-
longed. His character was particularly English; there was no
tined or false ornament in it ; all wax solid and genuine. (Ap-
plause.) His long life was one of marked integrity, and
unsullied private character; and on many occasions had he sacri-
ficed his private feclingsen the public interest. True it was, that
Major Cartwright h been accused of pertinaciously adhering to
his own opinions • but he was satisfied, that from the enlarged
views be took of the °Hat he advocated, he could not with consist-
ency act on any other opinions than those he had previously adopt-
ed. The Honourable Baronet then went into a long detail of the
political character and conduct of the late Major Cartwright, and
vindicated the purity of that character, anti the consistency of that
conduct. Ilia whole life was marked by a tothl disregard of the
anisciiitetices that night arise to himself. His induatity and pereg-
mance were calculated to forward hint in any course he adopted,
but his chief and primary object was the advancement o; his coun-
try's good ; in hissed to achieve which, he lost all feelings of pri.-
vete coneeeration. In humble life, he was mild and unassuming,
but still resolute. In his private capacity, he was benevolent and
virtuous. The Honourable Baronet, after some further remarks,
said, he felt great happiness in presiding at a Meeting convened
for so worthy an object.
Mr. Rut, proposed the first Resolution, which sou to the ef-
fect—that from the great set vices rendered by the late Major Cart.
weight to his eountry, some measure should be adopted by his
countrymen, to express' their respect for his memory. Mr. Rutt
proceeded t spy, that lie had been for forty years intimately, se-
: qesinted with Major Cartwright. and that be never knew an indi-
vidual more anxious to dromote the happiness aid liberties of man-
kind. His desire was not to establish that species of freedom
which was supposed to exist amongst theamients. Ile was not so
wedded to that imaginary freedom, of which so touch •as to be
heard of in the poets of autiquity. No ; he wished to give Eng-
lishmen that solid, real, substaturol freedom, which Engliehmln
ought to enjoy. (Applause.) For I contend (said dlr. Rutt) that ,
I in Greece and Rome there was no liberty ; for, in these countries,
even during their most distinguished days, there were a few privi-
lewd mast re, all others were niece slaves. (Applause.)
Mr. Gattowss seconded the Resolution. He thought, that
on such an occasion as the present, every individual should come '
forward. He had the honour of knowing the late Major Cart-
wright,
and during that period there could not have been a more
industrious or indefatigable friend to the interests of his country. '
True it was, that he was supposed to be too fastidious in his adhe.
rence to a particular creed ; but he always said, " If I were con-
vinced that freedom could be more quickly gained by measures dif.
fer..nt font those I advocate, I would most readily give up my own
opinions, and adopt those likely to succeed." dlr. Galloway went
on to say, that those who talked so much of Major Cartwright's
want of success, nod who were constantly recommending a mode.'
raterelorm, hail been just as unsuccessful as lie was. As the friend
of Radical Reform (said Mr. (i.) I tin not with to censure others
who will not consent to go so far ; and I feel, that by acting on my
own opinions, I do not retard the exertions of those who, though
opposed to Refonn, are still anxious for a partial one. Ile
proceeded to say, that the people could never be contented with any
arrangement, which would continue to exclude three-fourths of
them hem a participation iu the rights of freemen, and that the
Reformers could never hope for the co-operation of the people, or
for final success, whilst they sanctioned such a comeremise.—
(A pplauee.) He regretted the extreme thinnest's of the dleeting.
It was, however, a consolation to find, that those assembled were
a chosen few.
Mr. F. CANxibro proposed the next Resolution, whichdeclared.
that the public respect for rho late Major Cartwright would be best
testified by the erection of a monument to perpetuate his memory.
STURCH paid, he could not go away satisfied, if he did not
say a few words in support of the Resolution. lie had known the
late Major Cartwright for a long period. It was now forty-three
years since he had been introduced to him. Their 'acquaintance
commenced at the formation of the Society for the purpose of ob-
taining constitutional information ; a Society which had amongst
its first members the late Sir Samuel, then dlr. Romilly; and
which ha (Mr. Swell) was convinced, diet much to keep alive the
public feeling for liberty. Major Cartwright had always been a
great friend to the cause of rational liberty. He was not the advo-
cate of parties or of sects, but of the whole world. Mr. Sturch con-
cluded by seconding the Resolution.
Dr. GILCIIRIST said he was for many years the intimate friend '
of the individual whose memory it was proposed to perpetuate—
an individual, who, through a long and active life. possessed the
simplicity of a child—the ardour of youth—the courage of a man—
and the wisdom of old age. (Applause.) Ile looked on all
things as a man of the world, and embraced the whole universe
within the grasp of his comprehensive mind. Wherever the arm
of despotism was raised, the head and the heart of Major Cartwright
were ready to oppose it. No man was possessed of more genuine
hospitality, and never was hospitality more nobly displayed than
hid towards the unfortunate victims of oppression who had been
driven to this country from the Continent. (Applause.) lie en-
quired not what was the colour, the calling, the country, or the
creed of any person—" if he be honest," he used to say, " he
deserves my assistance." (Applause.) After some further obser-
vations the Learned Gentleman went on to say.—" My late friend,
Major Cartwright, was called a radical reformer: be was one, and
so am I. (A laugh.) I am not ashamed to avow it, and I am so on
principles so convincing that I feel I can never alter my opinion,
still I won't say "so help me God" I shan't alter them. (Great
laughter and applause.) Ile was most anxious to express has con-
currence in the proposed erection of a monument to perpetuate the
memory of the late John Cartwright He would give him no title,
for such a man was above being titled. Indeed, there was but lit-
tle chance the they shoeld " see his like again." lie was, said
the Learned Gentleman, the last of Englishmen I ever knen,-.
(Applause.)
Mr. WOOLER. the Secretary, then stated that the erection of the
proposed monument had its or:gin at a meeting held at the house
of Mr. P. Moore shortly atter the death of Major Cartwright The
amount of the subscriptions collected since that period amounted to
considerably over 6001.; and amongst the subscriptions was the
widow of the late Charles Janice Fox.
JOHN C. HOBHOUSE, Esq. proposed the next resolution, which
expressed the expediency of entering into a further subscription.
He said that it was to do justice to his own feelings he came for-
ward on the present occasion. If they deplored the loss of Major
Cartwright there was something to reconcile them to that loss, tor
his spirit continued amongst them. (Hear, hear.) It was not to
do honour to the individual that they then met—he had gone to
where earthly honours cannot avail—no. it was to du honour to his
principles, and for that alone they had come together. (Applause.)
The Honourable Gentleman went on to say That he agreed
with his Noble Colleague, when he said, that the late Major Cart-
wright had, by his works, erected for bitnself a monunient which
time could not destroy. His whole life was directed to the freedom
of his country, and he always contended for that right which every
man had to defend--his own liberties t and to have in Parliament,
to speak his sentiments, a Representative eleven by himself. (Ap-
plause.) In vain was it to look for rational Reform under any other
circumstances ; and until every man in the country was fully and
fairly represented, such indivulnals as Major Cartwright would
he always called on, and always required. (Applause.) Ile (Mr.
Hobhouse) agreed with his Noble Colleague, that in she character
of Major Cartwright there was something peculiar to the sail and
climate of England. He hoped the Honourable Gentleman (Mr.
Rutt) would pardon him, if he did not go so far in condemning the
ancients. He was convinced, that among them could be found the
noblest examples of fidelity as friends, and of generosity as enemies.
Ile was sure, that the great man whose memory they had met to
perpetuate, always looked up to them as models for his imitation.
(Applause.) It was his (Mr. llobhousee) fate, to be at one time
politically opposed to Major Cartwright; and after au hono,trable
contest, that much-respected individual had honoured him with all
the attention which he had no right to expect. Major Cartwrigbt
had been blessed with a lire protracted to a length which few of
the sons of men could hope to reach, and with safety might he lay
hie hand op his heart, and say, that during his whole life, there was
no word, or thought, or deed, of which he need be ashamed. (Ap-
plume.) When he (Mr. Hobhowie) talked of the purity of that
individual's thoughts, he of course judged of it from his actions.—
The Honourable Gentleman said, lie was consoled at the thinneee
of the Meeting, when he recolilcted that some Meetings are to be
weighed, and not numbered. (Applause.)
Mr. HILL seconded the Resolution, which was carried or.ani-
mouviy, . _

Mr. SL,I.DE and Ik. GILCIIRIBT were appointed Treasurers ;
and after a vote of thanks to the Chairman, the Melting ad-
ourned.

FULLUTON V. DALIIVMPj.E.—In the House of Lords

upwards of an hour on this very important cause. The
Earl of Lauderdale expressedlis opinion on some pointy of

The Chancellor then moved, that the decree be affirmed,
subject to the omission of certain words ; which was car-'

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Illown,cr, Just Mt

• CRIMINAL INFORMATION. •
It will be reentlected that Air. Brougham, fit the early part of
this Terqx.nbtained a rule nisi for a criminal information against
Al. Carrells°, for a libel on the Portuguese Minister, the Marquis!
Pa!melt*. lie afterwards obtained an extension of this rule, maw
to take in another person, s M. Bernardo Rod.
Mr. Scinctiry this day showed cause against the rule. on an
affidavit of Al. Carvelho, that he wax neither the printer, pubikshm,
nor proprietor of the work containing the libel, nor had any minute•
don whatever lith it.
THE I•ORD CHIEY JeSTICE—Have you any affidavit freest
the other parties ?
111 r. SCARLETT—YeA. my Lord; but I cannot venture Wlrellat
them in answer to the rule.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTlE—have you any oh:reit:M.' Hr.
Brougham, that so much of the rule as relates to Al. Carseige bP
discharged ?
Mr. BROVGHAPI—None, my Lord.
Mr. SCAR LETT acceded.
So much of the rule as relates to Al. Carvalho was dteeefoni
discharged.
THE /IRO V. AMPTILETT.
This was an indictment tried at the last Stafford Assizes. for
having published in the Popery Gazette, of which paper ditties
rendes' to tho proprietor, a libel reflecting on the moral characters
of Messrs. John ul William Ridgway, ehina-manufacturers, liv.
ing in the same perish with the defendant. The Jury found the
defendant guilty, and he was this day brought up to receive the
judgment of the Court.
The libel in question occurred in the course of a raper mer bew
tweet two rival editors an mends of religion. The promestotre
beirl dissenters' aid t e sin lam the champion, as it Neu, a
the Leablished Church, woo suspected the flutrways to be the
eiittors or instit,7tots of the articles which tippet ed in the Pottery
Atertory. A great number of affidavits were read on behalf of the
defendant.
Mr. JARVIS, Mr. LI/DLOVT. end Mr. ---, were heard is !RIB.
ration. and Mr. CAMPBELL in aggravation of punishment.
The judgment of the Court was, that the defendant, should pay
fine of 50f. to the King, and find security foe these years, hinted(
in 21W. and tiro endive in ifle/,• each.
'THE ZING V. MOLLINGBERT, GENT. REO OTHERS.
The defendants, floiliagbery, Smith, and Howley, who had
been convicted at the late Snails in Middlesex.; of •conspiracy to
extort &OWL from Josiah Taylor, by means of pressing two seve-
ral indictments against hint for keeping a gaming-house in the
perish of St. Jewett's, upon one of which indictments Taylor bail
received sentence after pleading • false plea of oarrefitit acquit, Were
now brought up to receive the judgment of the Court.
On a Ginner day this term, Air. Common Sergeant, on behalf of
the defendant Bowler, Mr. Jeasop on behalf of the defendant
South, and Air. Chitty on behalf pf the defendant Hollingbery.
severally ;nosed for a new trial. The latter gentleman also moved
an arrest of judgment,
The case was ordered to stand over until the defendants should be
brought up, the Court intimating; that if, on reading the Judge's
notes of the trial, anything should appear to justify the revision of
the case by another Jury, the defendants would have the benefit of it.
The Loan Cttter JUSTICE now read his notes of the trial.
. An affidavit by one of the firm of Williams, Brooks, and Co.
Solicitors, wan put in on behalf of the defendant Hollingbery, in
which the deponent stated, that he had known the defendant nine
years, that Ire served his articles in the office of the deponent and
his partners, during which time he conducted himself with the
greatest propriety ; that his connections were of the highest spec.
tability, and that he was introduced to this deponent and his part-
ners by 4 Nobleman of high rank.
An affidavit was then rut in oh.behalf of the three defendants.
made by the person who purchased the proprietorship of the Cu-
rate of Fashion, of Charles Molloy Wesel-next, whose influence
at the trial tended materially to the conviction of the defendants.
Thiti affidavit went to impeach the testimony of that witness.
'I he Clerk of the Court had not proceeded far when—
Mr. SCARLET,* interposed, and said that it was singular, at
such a period as this, to produce affidavits wh;ch went to impeach,
the testimony of the witnesses (which ought to have been door at
the time of the trial, if at all), instead of being confined to matters
which would go in mitigation of punishment.
Mr. COMMON' SERGEANT said, the reason the affidavit was
made now was, because they were taken by surprise at the trial DO
idea having been entertained that Westmacott would be called on
as a witness.
The Loan CHIEF Just ICE said, the affidavit ought to have;
been made when the motion for a new trial was brought on.
The COMitON SERGEANT replied, tttat the patty was not in.
formed of the circumstance in time.
Mr. 13CARLETT said, it was contrary to the rules of the Court
to take an affidavit now against the evidence. It ought to haite
been done within the first four days of term. In the case of the
King v. Powell, the A.rorney4eneral wished to read an affidavit
in a similar way, but the Court would not allow him to read it.
The Common SERGZANT.--If their Lordships should say he
could not be permitted to contradict the evidence of Westmacote
as to a particular fact, then he bad no other affidavits to put in but
those of the defendants themselves, and those certainly went not
merely in mitigation of punlithment but heel@ Sett of the case.
The LORD Cider Juiric c said such affidavits could not be
received. No defendants would ever conic up sod receive the
judgment of the Court without them, if sifter they had been tried
and convicted they were to be at liberty to come and give evidence
for themselves.

Dlr. COMMON ScnorAxT said, that in one of the affidavits it
was sworn that the wittioss Westmaeott, was married by the name
of Charles IVestmacott Molloy, and not Charles blolloy West-
mactitt.

The LonD CHM' Juvrics—But does your affidavit swear
that the dektidants did not Mow the witness by the name of Wait-
macott ?

Alt. COMMON SERGEANT—No, my Lord.
Mr. Sc TTTTTT .—lle had been tried in thie Conn by hie rupee
name, which was well enough known both in the COWL and Out
of it.

The Commow fignoggwr then put in the affidavit of the de-
fendant Howley, but after the Clerk of the Court had read a few'
passages of it,
31r. SCAR L ETT said he must object to this very irregular course
The affidavit was not ht wiligatiou, but went to the facts of the case.
The Loen Cuter JUSTICE asked whether there were not
any other affidavits on the part of the defendants?
Mr. CHITTY put in the affidavit of the defendant Hollingbery.
in which he stated, that in consequence of the two motions which
had been made to get him struck off the rolls of the Court and other
vexatious proceedings, and also in consequence of bad debts, he
was reduced to very great distress. That he was very contrite foe
what he had done, but was not aware that be was doing what nes
contrary to the laws of the country • and he further swore, that 111 e
offer of arrangement was made by him by Charles Swayne, who re-
, presented himself to be a particular friend of Taylor's; and that it
was not till after this, that he had ever given the least encourage-
ment to the business being put an end to in that ntode. That he
believed this proposed arrangement was a concerted plan of Swayne
and Taylor for the puryose of getting him struck off the rolls of
this Court. That if Swayne had appeared in Court, es a witness
on the trial, he should hare been able to have shown that he
(Swayne) was the first cause of this offer being made.
The affidavit of John Smith was then read.—The defendant
stated that he had been formerly articled by his guardian to an at-
torney in the country, and that coming to a good patrimony, he
abandoned his profession. That bis patrimony consisted of real
and personal estate. That having been unfortunately introduced
into the diderent gaming-houses of this metropolis, he had lost ail
his property. The detendant begged to remind the Honourable
Court, that hefted been instrumental in bringing a notorious keeper
of gaming-houses to justice, by ivhfeb he hopes it would be con.
sidered he had done a great public good. He verily believed that
, Taylor was the cause of Swayne's not appearing at the trial, and
that if he had appeared, much would hive been extracted from him
In his cross-examination that would have been favourable to the
defendant.

The affidavit of Rowley as to that part which went io=don
was then reas..—fle stared that he was the son of a eat sod
aged parent, who he believed would be very seriously Whets. if
any severe punishment should be passed at him.—Thst he had riot.
been into any gamieg house since the death of his mother, which
was in the year 111t2; and he begged to remind the Court that the
charge which was mode against Taylor was not false, and he
swore that he (defendant) never thought of compromising the
indictment,untilTaylor had first offered to do so by his agentßway se
Mr. COMMON Sr noesacr then addressed the Case; on behalf
of Bowley. The Learned Gentleman observed that the defendants
were objects more of compassion than of punishment, who by the
conduct of the prsoleator had been roluced from a state of comfort
sad respects ty to the last erste of penury and degradation.
which were the natural consequences of the pernicious syetce
which the man who now brought them up fur die judgment
of the Court openly encouraged and enriched himself by. The
Learned Counsel then commented at great length on the nature or
the esdence adduced at the trial,and remarked with much force on
the absence of no less titan four out of five witnesses who appearof

in all the criminal cases that had ever occurred in this country
and such a suppression of evidence, by which the defendants were
deprived the opportunity of cross-examination, threw great amp,.
cion on the whoie transaction. After some further ob thins on

EXECIWON
PROBERT, W. SARGENT ALIAS BASER. AND
HARPER. FOR HORSE-STEALING; AND 8311TH,
FOR BURGLARY.
'Yesterday morning the above four criminals underwent the dread-
penalty of the law. Early in the Miming, the Rcv. Mr. Outten,
'r. Hater, attended them to admit,ister, for the last time, re-
eonwslation and, as tar as in their power, to prepare them

iwful change.
the emitter down of the warrant Pm execution, there has
marked diffi-gence in the conduct and state of mind of the
Wale. Probert had indulged a hope that he should not can.
the extreme of his sentence—a hope, no doubt, greatly in-
' Iry the length of time that has elapsed since his trial, there-
him, the change was the more striking. After he had taken
'his wife on sunday, he became more composed, and teit
?Incas of his situation.
Sargent and Harper appeared to be very differently affected to
t. The latter had exhibited the greatest sorrow and penie
the other two had shown more indifference, Sargent in putt.
but the approaching hour of thasolution, wrought in them a
for the better.
t the usual hour the Sheriffs, attended by their deputies,
. at Nest-gate, and slicrtly after proceeded to the apartment
e the criminals ordered for execution are delivered to them by
Governor.
t eight o'clock the prisoners, who were in • room over this
ment, were heard singing a hymn with the Reverend Divines:
nitthed, Sargent was led in by the Rey. Mr. Cot-.On ;he fin.
try walked up to Mr. Sheriff Brown, and made some re.
the nature of which we could not heir. The Sheriff assured
1, should be attended to, and begged of him to abstract him.
torn all earthly concerns for the few minutes he had to live.
prisoner then approached the officers whose duty it is to pinion
bards and arms. This he bore with firmness, and surveyed
performance of their office with an indifference not to be de-
"' and as though he was ignorant of his situation. Ile was
.as to a seat, ad, during the sante office being performed on
them, lie sat. seemingly heedless of his approaching exit, ex.
when the next prisoner, Harper, was placed by his side ; he
• twice spoke to hint. Still his conduct was not mocked by
ik like hardihood—indiffcrence appeared, to be the chase-
of the man. His offence was stealing tie, horses from the
f Mr. PoLle, of East Grinstead, one of which was found at
~c-house on Hounslow Heath. and the other at Weybridge.
rapper was next brought in. when Mr. Sheriff Brown took him
hand, and etpree.sed a hope that he had prepared his mind

contrition. While undergoing the usual preparation, his
es appeared to be quite absorbed, and his eyes steadfastly fixed
?wards. lie was placed by the side of Sargent, and front the mo.'
ion of his lips appeared to be engaged in prayer. He was weßl
tnown as belonging to a gang of horse-stealers, who had committed'
considerable depredations an the county of Essex.
s was next led in, and appeared to be in a camposed state
and altogether lost to this world. After speaking a few
J the Sheriff, he was pinioned, and elated by the side of his
stafterers.

Baker taking his leave for the night, Probert inquired what tinie
he would be there again ? Mr. Baker mid, he would see hint

soundly, Probert particularly so, and about four o'clock yester-

they were jolted by their good spiritual adviser, 111 r. Baker, at a

GARDNER PEERAGE.
HOUSE tir LORDS, 3iONDAY, Juwz SO.
_
-- • - • •

Mr. ADAX summed up on the evidence adduced in this case
against the claimant by the first marriage, Henry Fenton Jadies.
caUtng himself Gardner. He contended that he could not be the
son of Lord Gardner, but of Mr. Jellies. Tho usual period of
gestation was nine months or forty weeks--a day or twerbefore or
idler. The opinion of several eminent physicians supported him
in that assertint, and the Cases cited against left the question un-
touched. There was a physical impossibility that the chilu could
have been Lord Gardner's, for he left this country in January, or
early in February, and the child was born on the Bth December.
It was besides in evidence that a criminal in'ercourse had been car-
ried on between Mrs. Gardner and Mr. Jadies, previously to her
ring on board her liusbrnd's 'ship before he left this country, and
it was plain that she was with child iu July when he came home.
When she found that the child might be born so es to bring it
• within the proper period, she used every means to forward the de-
livery by riding over the stones, &c. and she gave it out to the fa-
mily that she was pregnant but finding as the time drew near,
that she could not be delivered in time, she denied the pc-gnancy,
and said, that she had the 'dram aftd spasms. Lord Gardner
never slept with her after his return. On the 9th December, find.
Ing that she was near her time she sees for her brother. and tole.
him to take out Lord Gardner on the following day. On the night
of the 7th, or morning of the fith, she was delivered without her
husband's knowledge. Then there was first the concealment of
the pregnancy, next of the delivery, and afterwards of the child,
who was carried away privately, and brough, up and educated as
the son of Mr. Jadies. He was entered at Westminster school as I
Jadies, and subsequently was put into a public office, under the
name of Jadies. The cause of the Banbury peerage was exactly li
in point, as if it had teen got up as a precedent for this case, for 1
there Lady Banbury married Lord Vanx, as Mrs. Gardner did Mr.
Jetties. He concluded by trusting the House would guard the purity
of the Peerage by not entertaining the claim dt 81r. Judie,. He
added that the preamble of the bill for dissolving the marriage of
Lutd Gardner, stated, that the child was not legitimate.
Mr. TYR DAL objected to the preamble, as being that of a pri-
vate bill, and not therefore evidence.
Mr. ADAMS said there was a storing clause. •
• The LORD CHANCELLOR never knew of such a thing as a sav-
ing cl use in divorce bills; touching the legitimacy.
The bill was sent for, and
The LORD CHANCELLOR, looking at it, said, there were some
Words in it which ought to have been struck out. " that Henry
Fenton Jadies was not begotten by Lord Gardner." These could
not be received as evidence, tieing in the preamble of a private bill
to which the claimant was no party.
fit r. TYNDAL was then called on for his case, and asked what he
meant to prove. He said that he had witnesses to prove that the
period of gestation was longer than stated, sod he prayed for time.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that it was very proper that
these medical gentlemen should be called forthwith, because it
might be nicessarifo call back the. other medical gentlemen who
differed f with them in opinion, in order to contrast them, In a week
medical men could be had from England and Scotland.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE said, that a strain-boat would bring
up as many accoucteurs from Edinburgh in three days as the
learned eounssl might choose to have (laughter) or even from Paris.
The Earl of LTMERICK said, they could even begot from Dublin
in a shorter period than from Edinburgh.
