Lord Carnarvon said, that au shsolose attendance during
the proceedings of every day and every hour was necessary;
for the absence of an boor during an important period
might have induced Noble Lords to abstain from voting;
but on that subject much of course must he left In indi.
vidisal discretion. In the painful and rculsar situatioto is
which her Majesty stood, be should think that their Lord-
ships would be desirous to extend to hi r the greatest
tuile and iodulgence. When her Majesty stated that
Noble Louts came from the Committee with their minds
biassed by a mass of slander, he should have been better
pleased if the expression had been more accurate, and had
alleged that they came nuder sorb circsamslassures as render-
ed it almost impossible for the human mind to form an int.
partial judgment. Fur himself, he declared that be would
hardly have trusted himself to come forward as an imparts's!
judge hail he berm previously placed ois that Committee.
He eonfesseil, that bad he hues. of Counsel for her Majesty,
after all that haul been said and clone, he would not hive
advised her again applying to that House. With sespret to
one point of which her Majesty complained, be should
observe, that if Nubile Lords felt themselves at liberty
on a proceeding, the character of which was marked by
the strictest adherence to the forms and principles of justice,
ill come forward now and trample under foot one of the most
essential principles of justice; d there was a vital principle
of justice it was this—that the accused and the Judges should
hear the oral testimony, and that the accused should have
the fattest opportnuity to make his defence, either by himself
or his Counsel. Yet their were Noble Lords who presumed to
condemn their Qneets s it bunt having le,urd a single witoess on
her behalf, and without having beard or being able to read a
wind of the defence; and umber such circumstances a Noble
Duke was willing to legislate ar port/ado, cond. wooing his
Queen for a crime unknown to the law. It MU with regret
that be had beard a Noble Lord in the evening of as useful
and hnsourable life declare, that though he had not been
present during the whole proceeding, he would accord
the severest possible measure of pusishaseal. The
Howie had been called over lu order that no Peer
shtsedil vote who haul not attended; but if That Nolde Lord
resold have the right of voting without having hoard
the defence, why should he not have the privilege of
voting by prosy ! Con the ennumeacenseat alba proceedings
the Noble and Learned Lord oa the difoolsack bad said,
if hr were absent two or three days, he should coaceive
himself disqualified to vote; hut the Noble Duke who had
not heard a word of the defence, thought himself competent
to pass the severest possible sen'enct 'Kabul her Majesty.
He wished the conduct of their Lordships in Ibis proceed-
ing might soon be forgotten; because, while it was reweave-
betted, the character of their Lordships' House most suffer
in the estimation abbe country.

The Lord Chaim:Poe sold, the wily view of the asatter
which he could lake was, that if her Majesty bad thought
proper to appear in person before their Lords►ips, •nd to
Male any thing in objection to their proceediaps, and that
Addict's of her Majesty had contained any rework on the
character of that House, or oa the cordate. of say iodiviehtil
Perr as a Memb►r of it, they would, when they came to
consider the subject of such Address, dismiss all anti re.
marks from their missile; awl thertfore, if they recessed, as
ha thought they ought, this paper as the Protest of the
Queen, it ought to be received in such a snasmer as would
mark their seine of the impropria ty of any matter which ap-
peared is it rearetiug ims the character of the Home, or its
