country was now, thank God, coming to its ',mixes, (hear
hear, from the opposition benches), and the efforts of that
party which had hitherto distraeted the comitry would
soon expire if Parliament would maintain its I' esent firm
tone of deteri aa ill tioll. It ought to support the existing
government in undiminished honour and character, or at
once to extinguish the present cabinet as ministers. If
any resolution were brought forward on the other side,
he trusted that it would appear iii a distinct, t::ngilde, and
inanly shape. Alinisters would then be fairly put upon
their trial, and he (Lore Castlereagh) pledged himself that
if there were a chance of its success, it should be resisted
by no influence of the crown, whose servants would rest
their claim to public confidence on the reputation they
had acquired dnriug an arduous and glorious war, and a
subsequent interval of peace, dining which they had
never lost an opportunity by their best cilia lions to pro-
mote the interests and welfare of the empire. (Hear.)
Mr. [I:ItOUGHA M said lie should have taken no
part in this debate but for some expressions in the speech
of the Noble Lord, the whole of which W4B calculated to
give new life to the agitations in the couutry, and scented
to have for its object to place the royal parties in this pail'.
fol discussion ill interminable opposition. For the sake
of casting new stigmas upon her Majesty, and fixing upon
her the charges ministers had abandoned in their evidence
—he had not only infringed all bonds of decorum. but all
forms of debate, arid with the artful sedulousness of the
penner of a paragraph for a party newspaper had entered
into a laboured analysis of the votes in the Lords, to whose
proceedings in onlinasycas.a a bare reference only was
allowed. (Hear, hear.) If the House would allow hint,
Ile could show La what way the majority fur the Quern
In id been composed : he could show how many of that
maim ity tined their places, their patronage, their hononra
and their revenues to the patrons of the bill ; lie could
prove that while the minority could not in the slightest
degree lie influenced by the party who was to be the vic-
tim, the illustrious personage who was the avowed prose-
cutor was t opt esented by his household, and slate officers
and dependents of all ranks, and Ms power extended as
well over those who waited for the highest rewards, a nits.
narcli could bestow, as those who accepted even thevery
they could confer upon their adherents. Was not this of
itself 41.11 array that might strike terror into the most Moo-
cent ? Was not this an influence greater than feed es er
before been employed upon any individuals presuming to
call themselves judges? (Conti 111 l ed cheers). It true,
this could not appear upon the Lords' journals, but it was
well known to be directly contrary to the fact. On ito
question in the history ofl'arliament had more pary spirit
been shewit ; and oldie ministers under pretence of rm.
part [III y and with the cunning that belonged to weakuess,
kept in the back gi mind, quietly but itidustrintisly en-
(nipping and securing votes, they left three or font- of his
(Mr. ongliain's) uuble friends to bear the bi tint and
odium of the debate. In the outset of his speech the noble
laid, a itli a charity peculiarly I:is owe, undertook to de-
fend the Queen from Cie noble lord who introduced this
motion and the rest of her friends. lle had maintained
that her Majesty was degrad. d before her ti ins—degraded
by the coidesion of advocates. The House witeld
know how to make allonance for the delicacies and diffi-
culties with alticb lie (Mr. Brougham,) in the instance re-
ferred to had to contend : be was at that time as pima, less
to resent as resist imputation; and the noble lord,
ingenuity in which few would be proud to be his rival,
well knew how to heap together a few adjectives and
sounding epithets, and thus to compound a sentence dif-
ficult of comp, eliesision, but as far as it was intelligible,
calculated to till the ear and to delude the mind. It was
not for him (Mr. Brougham) then to say, that his royal
mistress was degraded; she was on the brink of an inves-
tigation whore i 11111 l cetice was no security, where pet jury
and bribery %Vele united to accomplish one object, where
the long arum of power, and the long purse of miiii-ters,
joined their influence over Italian hauls and hearis,ready
to crouch under the one, and greedily to switch at the
other. (Hear.) From such a trial—troni sorb a threat-
ened peiseention—the most guilty might shrink a Montt
for a moment incurring the imputation of crime.—The
hon. and learned gentleman concluded a most powerful
speech, by eallitig on the House to restore the
Queen to all her rights, as they valued justice and the
safety of the country ; for if she was not treated now as
it' she 114,1 never been tried, there was 110 justice, 110 se-
curity in th.• land. That question the Queen could never
give tip, and the people would never give it tip.
After some remarks ft out Mr. Alderman Ileygate, who
supported ministere, Loud A. liainilton replied.
The House then divided—
