THE QUEEN'S TRIAL.

HOUSE OF LORDS, FRIDAY, Szrr. 8.

The Lord Chancellor entered the Douse at half-past eleven
o'clock. The names were milled over.
The Earl of Derby prevented a Petition which hart been
agreed to ly the liihabitasita of Liverpool, but which was
signed only by the Mayor, irrxs inn some relief from the pres-
sure of pour rates. A ler minutes elapsed between the re-
ception of this Petition and twelve o'clock, at which rime
the Order of the Day was read fur calling in the Queen's
Counsel, and asking them in what manner tltr y proposed to
proceed.
The Counsel were then exiled in. The utmost anxiety
seemed to prevail its the House, and among the crowd with-
out the bar.
A great number-of Peers stood op in their places to watch
the approach of the Queen'. CABUISIIRI to the her.
Mr. Brougham look the lead as usual, and bore in his
hand the volume of intoned evidence.
The Lord Chancellor informed Mr. Brougham, that be
bad been cominaorled by the House to ask in what manure
the Counsel torlier Majesty intended to proceed in her de-
fence?
Mr. Brougham said, " It is our wish to proceed forth-
with."
The Cord Chancel:or asked it the Counsel meant by pro-
ceeding forthwith to open the case then, awl to follow is up
by producing evidencec or did they mean merely lir open the
case and afterwards pray time to procure evidence?
Mr. Brougham seemed to taborer ander noose ~,,,
stud his voice was nut sufficiently elevated to be heard at
fret either in the !louse or outside the bar.
The Lord Chancellor requested bon to speak louder.
Mr. Brougham (his voice still sinking ander apparent de-
bility) said, that there were two cases with respect to nil.

ing before the House, he dished is all noes where it
was practicable to sominielste to the Lower Courts. Let
their Lordships examine with him what was the practice
of those Comm in reference to the point In question. The
Pi oserutor had the power its those Court. of deciding on Ibe
lime in which lee might choose the case to come on. If be
was nut ready on the time first appointed, Ike Court was
always ready, on sufficieat cause being sheen, to put off
the trial till the next convenient period. But when all
obstacles were removed, and Clue trial had begun, it was ay.,'
tut late to slop; go on it must, whatever reasons might be
pleaded for that purpose. The Defendant in Orme Courts
was equally bound to go on sad proceed with his case to the
conclusion. Aad why was he so bound f Become such was
the precision with which the charges were slate I in the decla-
ration or indictment, that Ilse Defendant could not hut he
prepared to meet the charger, as far as previous knowledze of
the circumstances and places would conduce to that ef.
fret. If afeerwards it could be proved by thi Defendaut
that he had not received sufficieutly clear intimation of the
nature of the charges, anti of the time when they were com-
mitted, to allow him fair opportunity of confuting the acme-
sation—if he could prove this, and Oleo a reasonable pro-
bability that lie might have confuted the accusation, hail he
been allowed that preliminary knowledge which the law re.
spiked that he should have, be would in all probability sec-
rete' in setting the verdict obtained against ilia aside.
This as the spirit of the law of Eogland, which he recom-
mended to their Lordships' imitation, because it was •
law of humanity and mercy. He would have them more
especially, a. they' professed to do it, imitate the prac-
tice of the Court.. The preamble to the Hill ought, in
these particulars at least, to have resembled ass indictment.
Had they given the Queen full intimation of the times and
places wherein the commission of the acts would be charged
—had they indulged her Majesty with that which in
other Courts public justice awarded as a right, the op.
porluseily of lessoning what she was to be charged. with,
and where it was committed, her defence might have been
then what it ought to be—prompt in its succession to the case
for the prosecution, and ample and efficient in the mean* for
that defence, sufficient certainly haviug been given of the
farts, and sufficient time for gathering evi liner to meet them.
The commencement of the trial ought to have Lees post-
reined-moil something like this had been done, and then her
Majesty's Counsel would not lend in the painful and dee i.
cult situation in which they now found elermselses. He re-
minded their Lordships that• the difficuleies by which they
were now .urroundrd, had occurred in consequence of an
early and badly considered decision of their own, wills respect
to granting the list of witnesses. An opinion had sober-
quently been adopted by the Horse, ihat the Consel for the
Queen were entitled 10, and indeed mast have some (vein.
lent for the refusal of that list. They were not to be called
to go on to the defence, 1 sufficient time bad been given
for them to acquire such information with respect to the
witnesses, as would enable them to cross-examine with some
effect. A request had been made to Ilse Home festerday by the
Altorney.General, of which he had no reason to complain. It
was perfectly right in the Ailurney•General to wok fur the
time that he did, and it would have been right also in their
Lordships to hate refused it ; beet suppose it had been grunt.
ed, it would .have let in no new ease, no evidence could
have been bronchi afterwards whieh was not strictly con-
nected with that before the Home; and then, what hail been
the effect of the facts already deposed by the first part of the
evidence? Were their Lordships perfectly satisfied that it
would further the ends of justice to let that millrace go
forth, unexamined as it was, and followed by the powerful
MOO more 1 statement of the tiolicitor-General, out only through this,

but all the countries of Europe, there to circulate and sink
into the minds of the people, without any accompanying ex-
planation ? Could they feel satisfied that no impression
hostile to the purposes of justice would lie effected by such
a manner of proceeding' The Noble Earl opposite (Liver-
pool) had said, in the fervour of a generous mind, " God
forbid that there should be any thing like a decision in the
minds of any of their Lordships upon the merits of the case,
until hails sides were heard!" lle (Lord Erskine) was not a
b'asphemous or irreverent person; be believed no man's
character could be more free front the imputation of hlas-
pheiny and irreverence. But he must be excused for saying
" God could nut forbid that which be had ordained." And
agreeably to God's ordination, it was intpossibk for that
evidence to go forth, and remain wholly unexamined for two
months, without operating to the prejudice of the Queen ;
and yet, to talk of allowing no opportunity for going into
the examination of that evidence until the case for the de-
fence was entirely ready ! if she ease fur the prosecution
was not closed (and there could be no othff good ground for
resisting the application from her Majesty's Attorney• Gen-
eral), why was the Solicitor-General allowed to sum ? He
highly applauded that summing. The skill and the elci.
novice displayed in it deserved praise; and so Sore did
the Solicitor-Getters! feel of Ike effect of it, and the evi-
dence which had preceded it, that is the triumph of his
power, be declared that be could not see bow the ease could
be crutroverted, or the string chole of corroborative evi-
dence be Nehru by the. other side. All this was proper and
becoming in an ingraions and zealous advocate; bat be-
aten, it was right and proper in the Solicitor-General to
say this, was it not so much more binding os their lwrd-
ships to prevent, if possible, such a raw, so attested, so
