The Lord Chancellor entered the House a short lime be-
fore 10 o'clock. Mayers beteg read, aad the names called
over,
The Marquis of lonsdown resumed hiv obaervatione.
He assured their Lordships that lie was not at all disposed
to avail himself of the accidental adjournment, to extend
the remark's which it was his intentiou to offer to their Lord-
ships; be did not feel it uticessury to make massy observa-
tions on the subject of the evidence produced at their bar.
Still, however, there remained some remarks for him to
make on the point of View in which ninny parts id that
evidence bad been placed. Ou Saturday he was pr..-
ceeding to remark ton some of the eire 1111 l stances con.
steeled with the case at Aura. On th.it part of the
ease the Noble and Learned Lord had made sonic pundril
obrervatione although if be rightly suilentood hire In bail
professed his into-Wiwi of throwing out of hie view all cir-
cumstances built upon *ignited or suspicious evidence. Now
their Lordships would recollect that the occurrences at Aron
were deposed to by Deanna and :Thijocchi only. No other
evidence bore at all upon the subject. Liestersant [lowness&
bad told them he knew nuthiug as to what occurred there,
sod the truly witness fur the prosecution that was at all to
be credited (be errata Patersii), was also ignorant of
the trousactruns at that place. The priucipal circum-
stance du re was the double teat. If their Lordships would
take into coneideratiois the small space which existed
between the inner and the outer tent, they must see at once
that the outer tent was erected inertly fur the purpose of ad-
mitting the air, and of affording some sort of shelter in that
sultry climate. Thus, immediately the case was M 14114441
iato, there was an end of the inner or middle tent. Ile was
nuw erguiog upon the evidence of Demunt, and if their
Lordships uunlil yr fee to page 390 of the evidence, they
would immediately perceive that likniunt, nn giving her

when asked if lot Kurd Highness wig dressed or mu.

that was iuteaded to Ire conveyed by Destiout whets she stated
that, must immediately strike their lordship.. !into,.
queutly, however, their Lordships would find, al page 391,
when the Counsel fur her Majesty were endeavouring,
as they were hound to do, to set the evidence aside,
the following qutetion was put:—" Had tlie Prince's,
when out of the tent, any other garment on Their
Lordship,' could attend to her snswer—" Nothing at
all but au outer robe ur garment." That was the cir-
cumstance which the witucvs and many of their Lord-
ship. ionised to uggrarate into a MOIIIIIII scene under that
tent. But be would chew their Lordships that there was tier-
doer ludo:miry nor iirdelicacycitlwr under the tent, ur sulew•
queutly on the journey. He would twee advert for a sou.
went to a remark made by the Noble Earl (Liverpoe9 as well
as by the Noble Lord who per-ceded bin. (Manistee) tin the
subject of the English penning of her !loyal Highness's
suite having left Mr. But if their lordships look-
ed to she evidence of those persons they would And
sufficiesit reasons stated for their quitting without having re-
course to the notion that they left on account of being dis-
satisfied with her /loyal Hizhneses conduct. It vas impos-
sib'e to find persons of rank who would desire to he absent
from their native country, except for periods of a very
limited duration. No person, therefore, had any right to
draw iulerencrs uufavourable to her Majesty, from the.

fact of Brit ish subjects baring so left her in a foreigu country.
He was ready to admit with the Noble and Learned Lord
that the Carlsrulse case was calculated to make a (lest boor
preesion on their mimic. He was out desirous not tu allow
the force of the evidence oa either. If be felt justified in
trusting to the evideece, the case of Carleruhe would be
must important. It IV
been maintained, to auppoit that
case, that Kmee was weexceptionable witness ; that her
evideure remained entirely isocontradieted, whets it would
have been easy to have contradicted it; but her evidence
had nut !wen satisfactorily sited. It was tint plain that
Kress herself had out brew deceived, mud that she bail nut
merely imagined that she saw the Princess of %Vales, whet.
infect it was only the Count** Oldi whir sue beheld in die
room with Byre/mi. The Noble Lord opposite (Liverpool)
bad stated oue other grouted to traduce belief in Kress's'
testimony. If he understood the Noble Earl correctly,
he bad staled that Kress hail come forward as a voluu-
fiery witness in the cause of truth. (The Earl of Liver-
pool assented.) But what appeared in the evidence oa this
point? From the lestimuey of Kress herself, nothing
could be clearer than that she was nut a voluntary witness.
(Hear, heor.)—The very instant the Princess of %Vale* had
quitted those apartmeuta which Baron Colman had so gene.
thusly gives. up to her (fur what purpose be kit it to ho
supposed), the Baron returned to them, sail having meals
stoic' search for particulars of the character of winds be leek
in quest, the next Oleg which he did was ti) sod for liestiesel
and ask tier if she had seen enthiug AO the coedited of her
Royal flightier which wined help to ferrite eronnels of cri.
mine' aceneatinn. Awl then their Lordships were to be
told that Kress was a voluntary witness—(blear, hear)—
though it was plais as facts could make it, that she was
blotted here by the power and iuflsoeuce of Cioterisructit,
that same power mid influence having been unquestion-
ably used to keep away witnesses who were Wilhite to
appear in favour of the Queen !—(//ear, hear)—He world
before closing his I enter ks Oh the facts of t •ideuer, say some-
thing as to that evidence which hail been produced for
the otlwr part of Ile case. lie bad beard souse Noble
Lords with great appearance of candour say, " Oh, I cm
content to give up die evidence of lemons;" others did not
wish in retain- Illajocchi, and others hail no objection to set
aside the testimony of Saccbi as to the journey to Senegsglia.
In justice to the Princess of Wale., awl to this interests of
truth, they were bound not to dismiss suy part of the
evidence of any of those persons; they were butted to
take the whole of those cases together, and consideriug
that they were not gathered front any one part of Europe,
bet were collected from all the countries through which
the Protests of Wales had mimed, they were bO4lllBl to oh-
if those circumatautes del nut in all the Moaners ex-
hibit the same character of falsehood, and whether they ought
not to raise a doubt is. their Lordships minds to the advan-
tage of which the accused was retitled. It was to be remember-
ed that her Majesty's Counsel were entirely prohibited from
goiug into the general proofs of ageucy and suboruat ~,,, ; suit
although they hail beau circumscribed in the means of proving
it, there was evidence which prevented a doubt that nut in oue
country only, but throughout all parts of Europe, where
bre Royal Highness hush travelled, some bow or other, uu
matter for the cause or agency, • belief was crested that to
give evidence against the Princess of Wales was the surest
road to fortune mei favour. If he believed this—if be were
compelled to admit that a most expeusire inschinery of
agency hail been eatablished throughout the Continent, ex-
truding through all ranks, from a Gerinau Minister of State
down to it chambermaid, not less bouourable its that pur-
suit than that Minister of elate with whom she was a joint
labourer to procure witnesses against the Queen, Ise was
bound to give her Majesty the advantage of that
suspicion is every case in which it could possibly apply.
Hail they not seen some of the witnesses, Pietro Cuchi, fur
iustauce, loofas/etc to have beets induced lions the most
conscientious motive* to make a tender of his testimony
the cease of morality and truth, while they had it in evidence
that every word be swore to was fabrication and falsehood ?
If their Lordship" believed that—if they placed any reliance
on the other considerations to which he had alluded, must
not a suspicion of the same mature apply to Gargiulo and
Palmate even in those instances 'where they had out and
where they could not have hero contradicted ? Were they
Nut betted to consider the effects metal:sr to falselsoud, and
wheat they found the foulest testimony bail been heaped up
by the most suspicions means, were they not bound to give
the illustrious accused the fullest advantage of such doubts
as must arise, and consider her pure mid spotiss to all
cases where her character had been tarnished by evidence of
such a nature? Another circumstance which he felt it ne-
cessary to consider, was the attempt which had been made to
put the forgetfulness and contradict' of Majocchi and
Dement upon the same fooling, as the occasional shoelace
of recollection in the testimony of Litistenants Flynn
mid Ilownant. No doubt these was great appearance
of candour in this remark ; but let their Lordships re-
collect that it was an essential principle of evidence to
distinguish betwree that of a wittiest' who hail lost the me..
usury of facie which had existed, said the testimony of him
who remembered that which never did exist, and could
forget circumstances rebating to the same period of his evi-
dence whirls bail really takes. place. Majoccht could recol-
lect Bergarni having beer ill at Naples, and stated eleven-
stances •tteuiliug that Bluest whicleaccordi lig to the evidence
of Dr. Holland, never existed at all. hlajocilei could nut recut-
fret that any reedited man had alb: sided Bereami 111 that ill-
ness. Another circumstance to which he celled their Lord-
ships' awn ion, slot so much as to what had 'mescal at Catsuis,
but with reference to what hail taken place in the inflater,
when it hail been said that the Countess 01111 and Mariette
ought to have hero called. He was not quite satisfied that
it testimony had out beets resorted to, is. contradict some
parts of the case, but it was to be observed that in must
of the instances the time mid place bad been so impeifectly
prettied, that the Countess Oldi atel Meriette must have

It could nut have we ighed one feather in the mind of any

been proposed to put a person into the box to prove that he

Princess of %Vales, and if that Noble Earl has bee* told

evidence, would he not have declared that be would
be the last man in the House to cuunteusuce that sup-
pression? Let their Lordships mark the way is. which
they had beet' directed first of all to proceed, and the-
measures into which they were afterwards drawn. hat
1, them remember that it was at Naples when that font and

only for the purpose of chewing that the Queen's conduct,

question for their Lordships' deliberation. lie bad no wish
to offer explanation, or to attempt any mitigation of her
Majesty's COIIIIIIO ; he had made those remarks in consequence
of expressions which had fallen from one of their Lordships,
and he made them because he was about to iusist that
such considerations could not enter into the present in-
quiry. He would mut occupy their Lordships long, yet
be was obliged to consider, in some measure, the ststnre
and character of the proceeding upon which they were
deliberating. He was far from thinking that this or
ally other could be an improver stage of the inquiry
for such a purpose. They were lamed to consider that
circuoisfinsee, if they were resolved to elo their duty
as men, as Judge*, or as legislators. A Noble Lord
opposite had stalest that hills of Pains awl Pssalties
had incurred a hard name. Long may Bills of Pains asst Pe-
nalties preserve their bard name! The Noble Earl had ask.
ed, sad to shut question he seemed to be supported by the
Noble and Learned Lord (ReilesJale)—after all, what was it
hut a common Divorce Bill ? This from those who bad
proposed to institute a Committee to search fur precedents,
out of Divorce Bills but of Bills of Pains suit Penalties
only! and had excluded front the Report the only divorce
case, that of the Duke of Norfolk, which it was now known
gave the accused every advantage that could he desired!
Now that all the weight of the Bell of Pains mid Penalties
was pressing *pun tile head of the Queen, the Noble and
Learned Lord said that there was little if any difference be-
tween this and a ronsmou Bill of Divorce! Little, indeed !
There was as much difference as between a Bill to
relieve the subject and a Bill to iuflict penalties.—
Ls a Bill of Divorce, if any penalty occurred, it wan only
accessory mistier to the relief to which the Plaiutiff was
entitled by the laws of the country; but in a Bill
of Pains and Penalties, the relief was ouly accessory
sow the penalty certain. He condemned, generally, the
principle of Bills of Pains and Penalties, observing, that
whereas the laws of the country specified the pstaishment
fur an uffesere committed against them, these Bills created a
punishment for au offence which violated no preceding
After having thus grenade(' and guided their proceedings by
the precedents of Bills of Pains and homilies ouly, and not
by those of Divorce Bills, thus to tore reused and say that
this was nut a Bill of Pains and Penalties, but a Bill of
Divorce, and to prim it on this new ground, would be one of
the harshest and most unjust proceedings that had ever been
adopted. The present was then a Bill of Pains and Penalties,
differing only from other Bills of Pains and Penalties in this,
that in proportion as the rights and privileges of which it
went to deprive its illustrious object were greater than those
of other individual*, in propos tiou as the rack and statues
from which it 'ought to degrade her were more tasked, the
penalties which it enacted were heavier aml more oppressive
than those of other Bills. Another ground on which he
felt decidedly opposed to this measure was, that it was west
oupopulu.—(flear, koar.)—Unpopular not to the rabble
only, who might be excited to raise their voices ail to ex.
press their opinions against a measure which they possessed
no means of information, and were nut enabled to estimate its
consequence by any kuowledgeuf the history of their et/entry,
but unpopular also with all the best-inforneed and must re-

of its principles, and could look forward to its foliate effects.
What had been midge' measures of this eleacriptimi by every
person who bad written un the subject ? There were two au-
thors to whom they were taught to look with respect fur their
501111.1 judgment on all matters connected with the principles
and practice of our coastitutiou ; be alluded to Blackstone
and Paley. If they &mud those authors—Blackstone reced-
ing from the discussion of the subject, as is consciousness

• of its direct opposition to all those constitutional doctrines
which be bail nocukated; and Palcy describing them as in
their nature essentially nojust, be implored the author• of
this proceeding to pause and consider its probable uperatiou
on the minds of the reflectnig part of the statism. As long
as they felt any deference fur such a alhorities, su loug must
they feel averse from any tetessuie of this description. Their
Lordships were bound, as Legislators, out only with respect
to this measure now before them, but also wish respect
to any wiser law, to cuusiikr its effects. He calkil opus their
Lordships to recollect that they were palming a law, nut a
scutruce--that they were not prosiourceng a judgment, but
enacting • law which, like all other law., could only be
justified on the ground of its expediency for the public goal.
Therefore, is relation to is. expediency, they were bound to
consider its effects with regard to public opinion ; sad with

enactment of such a measure as this when founded not on
positive proof, but ou preautnptisus of a fact drawn front the
