of crimes of the Ant mab iituJe; but sir;
1‘,.,. was Lord Melville, At the time of his delin-
ea terry, in the high office of First Lord of the Ad-
mita! y, a 14 narged *tit suTaring others to pecu-
late, and with being a participator in it himself.
This, therefore, would he a trial rein's ing the tr.-
most publicity, as there was not a man in the king-
d•on who was not interested in it. If Lor .1 Mel-
ville were innocent, it was bur justice to hint that it
sla-mld he made as manifest as possihle : a :3, on the
other hand, if he were guilty, it was right that he
should he pronounced sn, in the fare ,)! the :assem-
bled nation. In conclusion, he s that he was
canvinced the trial could no' law 10(17, as he knew it
to be the wish of the Managers to curtail it as much
as was consistent with the ends of public justice.
Mr. W. DUNDAS said, that in the cour,e of
this debate, he had not heard one word to shew
that public justice would not be as well attained at
the Bar of the House of Lord,, as it could in West-
minster Hall; nor any argument for it, but the
;Imposition that it would afford more satisfaelion to
public. What be ;eked for was justice, but not
aldatory and protraded justice. It was a sound
ociple in the English aw, that a man should he
held innocent until he was coevieled ; but how
could that he done, if the judgment should for a
I,t-gth of time he protrafted and withheld from him?
After a long life laboriously spent in the service of
the public, he would ask,whether it were fair or libe-
ral, that Lord Melville slieuld be consigned, without
any sufficient reason for it, to an old agent pnvetty
and want, if in the end he should appear to be in-
nocent ? He believed there was not a man who did
not look at the long trial of Mr. Hastings with
mockery and disgust ; and he recollcaed, nn the
present occasion, to have heard nearly the same sen-
timents from the present Lord Advocate, who was
not at this time in his seat.

Mr. PERCIVAL said, that if it were shewn that
a trial in Westminster Hall would advance the caw se
of justice, he should approve of it ; but no such
proof had hitherto been shewn him. The Gentle.
men opposite, called him and his friends inconsist-
ent, because they voted for an impeachment, with-
out paying any attention to their own inconsistency.
He was still for an impeachment, which, since the
instance of Lord Macclesfield, could not be re-
proached for novelty ; but he thought that in all
such cases, the least oppressive mode should have the
preference. When the motion for a criminal infor-
mation was proposed, he objeded to it, and preferred
an impeachment, because, in the other case, the bur.
then of the prosecution would fall upon him who
was known to be adverse from the proceeding ; he,
therefore, wished it to he transferred into the hands
of those who could not be suspecled of having any
bias on the part of the accused. The event had
shewn. that he was right in his conjedute; for, af-
ter along subsequent investigation, it was but lately
that the Managers themselves could bring that ad-
ditional charge, which they, of course, thought ne-
eessaiy for his eonvision ; and what wonld they
have said of him, if he had so protraned the insti-
tetion of prnceedings against him ? When the im-
peachment was a second time proposed, they were
all for a prosecution, probaSly because they thought
the Court of King's Bench had less partiality in fa.
sour of Lord Melville, than he was likely to expe-
tient* in Westminster Hall. It was said, that if
Lord Melville should be tried at the bar, it world
be as argument rtainst having any more impeach-
ments in Westminster Han ; and he confessed that if
it should have that effect, in his opinion, it would not
be a rhischiev ,u; one. But, even as a friend to
such trials in the Hall, he should be a friend to their
not being made, in all cases, oppressive, as nothing
would be more likely to bring them into disuse.
Mr. Fox said, it was singular that the night
flon. Gentleman should attempt to throe.- the
c!,:irge of inconsistency upon him and his friends,
though he himself, and those with whom he lifted,
were against any prosecution whatever. He sup-
pitted the Impeachment at first, because he
thoogld it the mode best adapted to the purpose ;
hot he was afterward: in favour of a prosecution,
when. on the other side, he only saw an insincere
and hollow mail*, in which he could place no
confidence. Ile was very far from blaming the
selivions or icier.?. of Lord Niel...ale for the part
they had taken io his favour. or for their natural par-
tiaiities towards him ; hut he would never consent
that he or the Mariaz;ers of the impeachment should
be gui.tesipy their advi.:e. In the first instance,
they stated, by way of a-gnmert, that Lord Mel-
ting himself preferred a criminal prosecution ; but,
on further consideration. they came back again,
and declared, that he wished for an impeachment ;
an I. in supporting the latter proposition, it was ini-
poaihle but they mast have had before them the
espence of a prosecution in Westmiestet Hall. and
that Lord Melville himself should nut have it in his
view. It was no wonder, therefore, the; he should
he afraid of such frier ds associated with him. as
*ere firit against having any prosecution at all. An
Ilrnourable Gentleman. who spoke early, dwelt
much en the piopriety of what he caled 6. the old
Constitutional mode of proceeding,' torgetth.g all
the time. that the old Constitutional mode was in
favour of the Managers, and that he himself
c 1:y rested on the one solitary instance of Lord
Alscclesfield. Was it then to be expelled, that the
hlanagers should always take instrudions from the
friends and relations ot. Loud Melville? Were these
the persons that they s..ould, in propriety. consult ?
He remembered an old rule, which used to prevail
ia that House, that Members should not attend the
Committee ere a Bill, if they disliked the principle ;
hut that rule was, perhaps p-dperly. reversed by
these Gentlemen; for, though they dishked the
principle, they were Aways the foremost, and most
ambit.. on the Committee. A dislike was also ex-
pressed an the other side. to maloog this or any
se_ tar trial, a spedade I but, cm the enutrary. he was
in co-:Went hopes, that every public trial in this
country. would ever be made a istahlic spedacle.
Mr. CANNING sail, that after a speech of so
mush warmh, it might perhaps be enocivisable

terra)* arm of power were to bear heavily upon
Atelvlie, it world
be in wain for insh-

peachment world take place et the Bar of the House

la
.the present debate, he must deny that they had
pointed out one distinn substantial point, where as
much justice could not he done at the Par of the
I louse of Lords, as on A trial in Westmiuister Hall.
He said, that after the trial of Mr. Hastings, the
people, in general, were so much disgusted at the
length of it, that they expeeted there would have
been an end of all trials of that kind ; and, under
similar impressions, and to prevent its recurrence
in flume, the Legislature passed the Aet ap.
pointing an East India Jo licature. One Right
Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Fox) had assert-
ed, that it was impossible that thnse who vot-
ed fur this impeachment should not have had in
their contemplation the expellee of a tt ial in West-
minster Hall ; but thinking that the affirmative of
one was as good as the negative of another, he must
say that he did expen the Impeachment would not he
condoned in Westminster Hall, but at the bar of the
House of Peer., after the precedent of Lord Maccles-
field, and therefore had not such intolerable expenses
in his contemplation. The same Right Hon. Gent.
ohjened to the interference of the friends or rela-
Lions of Lord Melville ; but if partiality were to be
an ohjenion on one side, he was afraid that the gen-
tlemen opposite to hint would not appear altogether
exempt from it. lie next adverted to the Noble
Lord (H. Petty) who spoke from the Opposition
Bench, whom he described as saying of the friends
and relatives of Lord Melville —6' If they have their
feelings of nature, I have also my feelings of Of-
fice •• and he assured the Noble Lord, that if the
gentlemen around him sympathised so tenderly in
these feelings, he was not disposed to congratulate
them on their sim;larity.
Mr. W. IVYNNF. said, that, in a trial at the BAT
of the Lords, the room would he so much taken up
by Members, that a single individual beside could
not find admittance. As to Mr. Hastings, his case
was of that nature, that could not have been tried
by a jury ; and, as to the length of it, there
Was no reason to stipp.,se that other trials would last
as long as hi.. 13estdes, it should he remembered,
that there was one session in which the Lords only
allowed four days for the Impeachment, and it was
always in their power to adjourn the proceedings.
Mr. WALLACE acknowledged, that he seas one
of those who did not think there was sufficient
pound made out for any prosecution ; but when it
was determined on, it was right that it should be
made as little onerous as possible. Phe Gentiernen
opposite, chiefly relied on publicity and solemnity ;
but every one knew, that in the King's-Bench, or
any other of the Courts, the publicity of a trial, or
its circulation through the country, did not depend
on the number of the audience; and, as to the so-
lemeity, he believed that all that could be done by
a trial in Westminster Hall, was to gratify the cu-
riosity of the audience, and the vanity of some
other persons. He thought it also a serious thing,
that the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of King's-
Bench, who was also a Cabinet Minister, and most
be supposed to be associated in the feelings, the par.
tiAlities, and the passions of his colleagues, should
be allowed to be a Judge upon this trial.

Mr. GREY said, he meant not to enter into the
general discussion, or the fitness of Lord Ellenbo-
rough to be a Cabinet Minister, or why Lord Mel-
•ille or his friends should now be alarmed at that
circumstance; but simply observe, that if his Lord-
ship hod these partialities and passiems, rtreheer way
to controul them would be, by the publicity of the
proceedings. As to what was said by a Right Hon.
Gentleman, that the India Judicature WAS establish-
ed to correet such long trials as that of Mr. HASS.
Mgr. he neei only remind him, that Mr. Hastings's
trial commenced in the year 1788, and the India
Jadicature was instituted in the year 1714. He
did rot much wonder that the Right Honourable
Gentleman slaluld suppose the strung arm of power
would be exerted to crush lord Melville, as he was
c.mscious that he had himself exerted the strong arm
of power for the purpose of screening him from jus-
tice. Hut, before he employed this observation, he
should have refleCted, that the publicity of such
proceedings must ever be the surest shield against
the strong arm of power. He concluded by assur-
ing the House, that the Managers were resolved to
bring the impeachment to as speedy a termination as
possible, as far as depended upon their exertions.
Mr. WESTLEY said, he only rose to express
his hopes, that should Lord Melville be acquitted,
he would be indemnified in his expences.
After some explanations from the different
speakers who took part in the Debate, the question
WAS called for. and the gallery cleared for a divi•
sion, which did not however take place, and the
motion of Mr. Whitbread was carne.!.

TRrkIING ACT.
Mr. TIERNEY moved the order of the day for

stood it was the wish of the House to postpone the
further consideration of this question until a week
or so after the next quarter sessions, in order to
give gentlemen an opportunity of examining the

moving an amendment, in the Committee, for the

Mr. WHITBREAD moved, last night, in the House
of Commons, " that the House be present at the
trial of Lord Met.viti.e, as a Committee of the
whole House." This motion, as being prefatory
to an Address to His MAJEsTv, to order Westmins-
ter Hall to be fitted up for the purpose of holding
the trial there, produced a smart debate, in which
the new Opposition took an allive part
Viscount CAsrtEREAou, General TARLETON. Mr.
Rose, Mr. CANNING, Mr. PERCIVAL, and several
other Gentlemen of that party, spoke against Mr.
WHITBREAD'S motion, but it was at length carried,
without a division.
