ADMINI:;TRATION OFIUSTICE IN SCOTLAND.
' Lord .1.? IiSKINE, took a brief retrospeEt of the
proceedings hitherto had relative to the Scots' Judi-
catth.-: Bid, and observed, that he considered it of
imiortance, previous to the motion of his Noble and
Learned Friend on the Woolsack, for rejeaing. "the
present Bill, that certain questions should be put..to
the scots' Judge 3, the answers to which might per-
haps give a new turn lo the opinion of the House.—
It was his wish; if the House should agree to
the-se queStions being put,' that. the Judges
should be treated with all that resped which
the }louse shewed towards the Judges of Eno--
land, and that they should be allowed such
tune as they might think ..necessary to answer
them. He therefore,gaye notice, 'that he should,:
to-morrow, move to put certain questions to the
Scots Judges in attendance ; and -concluded by mov-
ing, That the Lord President and two. Senior Judges
oil the Court of SeSsion, and such other Judges of
that Court- as may be in town, should attend the
House to-morrow.'--Ordered.

after having met that morning, in consetinence of
the absence of Mr. Foley.=,--Dr. Bradley attended at
the Bar, and stated that Mr. Foley was so indisposed
a,kto be unable to attend his duty on the Committee.
Mr. Foley was then excused for his absence, and
from further attendance on the Committee. -

Mr. LETHBAIDGE gave notice, that he should,
on Tuesday next, move for the appointment of a
Committee to take into Cousideration the Peti-
tion of Mr. Palmer, their vi'og on the table of the

CURACOA.
Cot. WOOD moved, that there be laid before
.the House a Copy of the Letter of Admiral Dacres
to the Lords Columis4oners of the_Adtoiralty, dated

the Bth of January, sO7, inclosing a Letter from
eke
_Capt. Brisbane, dated Jan. 1, 1807, communicating
the intelligence of the Capture of the Island of Cu-
racoa:-.—The 'Hon. Colonel, on being reminded by
the Speaker that it was usual for Hon. Members,
- when moving for Public Papers, to state the -ground
Upon which they called• for them-, declared that it
was witha view to an 'inquiry into the ground's of the
removal of the late Governor of Curacoa-, and: the
appointment of another (a connexion of the Right
Hots. Gentleman opposite, Mr. Windham), that he.
had brought forward thiS Motion:
. I INDH4III thought the : Motion objec-
tionable, because nu Parliamentary ground had been
la-d for it. The usual course on the 'Capture of any
Enemy's Settlement was, to appoint a ProvislOnal
Governor until his Majesty's pleasure should be
taken upon the subjedi, and a Governor, appointed
under the Sign Manual. Capt. Brisbane had been
appointed the Temporary Governor, as Sir David
'Baird had been at the •Cape, and as had been the
case at the Capture of •the Cape last ,war, for cer-
'tainly Lord Nfacartney had not been the conqueror

`wouei go into an. ineuiry why his Majesty had

to aPpoint this, or.that person Go-
•v,..reei• that Isleed. If the person who had been
appointed wag not quelified for the' office, either by
. ie;s Profession or limb berviixs, the liouse taught in-
- It would be-a bad rule in -geneal that the
:pertOn wbo'conqtrered an island should be continued
in the Government otTit.. The man who made a

whether the.Moiion should be agreed to.
Lerd.CAS'7l,7Zi?E4Gii felt himself involted in

THIRD REPORT OF MILITARY INQUIRY.
. . .
Jord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON rose to put
a question to the Chancellor of the Exchequer,
Merely to ascertain
,what was the stale of the trans-
aaion with respect to _the' proceedings upon the
' Third Report of Military Inquiry, and whether any
alteration. had taken place in that transaction.
The CHAACELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
was ready to give the Noble Lord the most perfect
satisfaaion upon the subjea of his inquiry. No
alteration Whatever had taken place in the proceed-
ings. The. late Board of Treasury bad thought it
eight, previous to the,commencement of either civil
or eriininal proceedings in that case, to make further
inquiries upon the subjea. . He could assure the
Noble Lord that all due diligence was employed in
making those enquiries, and that no disposition ex-
isted to avoid taking any step that might be deemed
proper or 'expedient.. This was all the explanation
which he could then conveniently give.
PENRILYN ELECTION REPORT.
, -Mr. A'rKlNs WEIGHT Moved the Order of the
Day for resuming the -adjourned Date upon the,
Special Report of the Penrhyn 'Election Committee.
The SPEAKER stated, that the question in .the
debate to be iesumed, was, That the House agree
to the first Resolution of the Special ,Report of the
Committee, namely, That Sir Christopher Hawkins,
by himself and his Agents, was guilty of Bribery
I and corrupt Proaices, with a view to influence the
Ilast Election for Penrhyn. ..
Copt. PERBERT was disposed to alloW the
Special Report of a Committee every due weight
1 and authority ; but was of opinion, that the House
e had the right to inquire into and discuss the grounds
I ofahat Report: If a Special Report were final, then
the first proceedings of the HotiSe would be to order
a prosecution: But the House, on the contrary,
ordered the . minutes of the evidence to be laid on
the table, in order to examine whether the Report
1 Was•borne out by that evidence. It was for the
I House to consider, whether the mortification Of the
Ipersbn concerned, and the' penalties to which he
was subject, were tneesufficient punishment without
• aoy further prosecntion; Besides, unless the evi-
dence were such' as to be satisfactory to the minds
of a jury, the question ought not to be sent into a.
criminal Cuurt, because the
,acquittal by a jury,
would take from the weightof a decision by a Corn.
tnittee of that House. The Hon. Gentleman then
proceeded to comment at some length upon various
parts of the evidence, to shew, that the Hon. Bert.
had not been intentionally guilty. He sheaved that
the evidence of Stoner and Moon was contradidory
with resped to the agreement, aed that there was
no evidence whatever that could be Made the ground
of a decision in a Court of Law. There was no
proof of any agreement, or that any agreement had
been titled upon ; 'and he put it to the House whe-
ther, upon this dohletful evidence, they would, by
. agreeing to the Reselution, prejudge a.question that
was to r to a Jury. It was not unusual with the
House to pass over Special Reports of Committees ;
for iinstance, in the Berwick and Cricklade eases.
And upon these grounds he moved an amendment,
i that, the Debate be adjourned to this day three
1 mouths. , -.
Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON had attended
particularly to the evidence for the last .five weeks,
and declared the impression upon his mind to be the
. very reverse of that stated by his Hon. Friend. This
appeared to him one of the strongest cases that bad
ever been brought before Parliament. He had serv-
. ed upon many Committees, ary.i knew the, scrupu-
lousness with which their Reports were drawn up.
There was no case. in which "greater confidence
should be placed in'the Repast of a Committee, than
when it Went to'criminate a Member of that House.
The speech Of his Hon. Friend was not in mitigatieu,
but for the complete abandonment of-punishment.
He should therefore votefor the Resolution. •
'Captain HERBERT, in explanation, asserted that
he was authorised to state, that no agreement ex-
isted at- the late- eleCtien, and declared- upon 'his
honour, after every inquiry he could make, that ho
such agreement existed at that Eleaion.
' Mr. LE6EI KECK argued at some length from.
.the evidence, to shew, that the Report of the Come
tnitiee was fully borne out, by it. He did not think
it Just or hir, that the Hun. Baronet, because he had
-secured his seat for another place, should he in a dif-
ferent situation- from others under similar circum-
stances,
because so- far as Penrhyn was concerned,
he-was no longer a Member of that House. • .
Mr. EDWARD 57t117.1.1f contended that the
House bad delegated.ita.powers to the Committee,
and that it had then only to determine what proceed-
ing it should adopt upon the Report. One fa&
was certain, that' the Hon. Baronet lid- agreed to'
"give 24 guineas to each Voter, and the Gentlemen
- who had read the Minutes would agree that this
was one of the grossest instances of barefaced bri-
bery that had ever been brought under the considera-
tion of Parliament.
Mr. HURST explained-the reasons that governed
his Conduat, both in the Committee and since. He
considered' the evidence with reference to the cri-
.minal law of the country. The proceedings upon.
that evidence might be fQr the expulsion of the
Hon. Baronet, or for a criminal prosecution, and
- before they should determine upon either, he
' thought the Howse ought to consider whether the'
' evidence was such as to bear it out. ~The evidence
of Stoner and Moon was contradiaory, *and if he
were to decide, be should say, that neither was to
•_ be believed; concluding therefroni that no agree-
.ment existed. He had no knowledge of the Hon.
Baronet until after the Report of the Committee, '
when in a conversation he bad with him, that Hon.
Baronet bad declared to him upon his' honour, that
no agreement was ever entered into by him.
Sir W IV TYYNNZ observed, that the confi-
dential Agent of Sir Christopher Hawkins had
admitted, on his examination, that there was an
, agreement. Stoner, likewise, admitted the exist •
ence of,an agreement. He trusted, therefore, that
the House, aCtine upon the prieciple, that he who
bought his seat would be most likely to sell his vote,

would, %vith a view to purify itself, adopt the same
course that had been pursued in the Cricklade,
Shoreham, and lately in the Aylesbury Case, 'and
throw open the Borough of Penrhyn, with a,view
to prevent similar bribery in future. •
• 16.1PINDHAM did not mean by any thing
,he
had to say to influence the decision of the House,
because he, knew nothing more of the case than he
had been able to coiled since he came into the
House, and did not mean to vote upon the question.
He offered himself merely to. the House to entreat
them not to baled away from the merits of the ques-
tion by any extraneous citcumstances., The. ques-
tion was, :whether the evidence. was such as to war-
rant the House in agreeing with the Committee in
their Resolution. But the greater part of the dis-
cussion had proceeded upon an assumption_of this
fad, and a consideration of what the House should
do in such -a case.

Ur. WHITBREAD replied to the argumenTsof Mr..
Windham. When a Committee on theirisolemn
oaths had reported a Member guilty of bribery,
ought the House to blink theluestion, and avoid
coming to any decision upon it ?
Mr. Ro§E thought the Committee warranted in
their Report, and that the Report was sufficient to
induce the House to put the Hon. Baronet on his
trial by a Court ofJustice._

Mr:Simnos and Mr. LETHBRIDGE were anxi-
Ous that the discussion should not be deferred.

The Question was then put on the Amendment,
which was negatived without a division. On the
original Question being ptit, namely-, " that Sir
Christopher Hawkins, by himself •and his Agents,
had been guilty of Bribery and corrupt Praelices,
for the purpoie of influencing,' the last Ele&ion for
the Borough of l'enrhyn," a long discussion'ensued.

Mr. SlP.lE6lJ'entetea into an examination of the
evidence, and contended,- that• although corrupt
{radices had certainly been resorted • to, yet that
the charge of bribery was not sufficiently established;
-Mr. LEICESTER followed, and drew a contrary
conclusion.

. Mr. litlasT declared that the evidence-was con-
tradiElory, and that no a& of bribery bad been
proved.
Mr.SWAN defended his constituents at Penrhyn
from the imputation that had been cast upon them,
of being generally corrupt.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought
that the House could feel no difficulty in agreeing to
the Motion to adopt the. Report of the Committee,
and subsequently to send the case to a Court of Jus-
tice. In reply to some observations that. had been
tlifiiikn out ,on'the sUbje6t; he contended. that the
expulSion of the Hon. Baronet ought not alsci to be
resolved upon.
Mr; BANKES declared, that there:was:llo instance
on the Journals, of any Gentleman having been
.al-
lowed to sit in the House against,whom a criminal
prosecution had been instituted. When the..proper,
time came, he meant to move for the expulsion of
the Hon. Baronet. •

Mr. FULLER was of a different opinion. He
thought it would 'be wore fair first to send the Hon.
Baronet to another tribunal, and, on the judgment of
that tribunal 'having been given, to come to a subse-
quent decision.
Sir W. W. WyNNP. hoped, foir the dignity of the
House, that when a Member was reported by a Com-
mittee to be guilty of bribery, lie would be it longer
allowed to sit among them.
Mr. S. BOURNE trusted, that If the House should
resolve to expel the Hon. Baronet, that expulsion
would not be followed by a criminal prosecutiOn,'
For his part, he thought a criminal prosecution pre-
ferable.

Mr. WHITBREAD, while he maintained that there
were cases in which expulsion might be followed by
criminal prosecution, did not think that the present
was one of theM. He was for concurring =in the
Report of ,the Committee, and afterwalda sending
the. Hen. Baronet to a Court ofJustice.
The Gallry was then cleared, but we understood
that, th;.,. Resolution of the Committee was adopted
‘vithoutp division. While strangers were excluded;
we learnt that Mr. A? KINS moved—
" That the -Attorney-General be direaed to prose-
cute Sir Christopher Hawkins for bribery,"
TO which. Motion Mr. BANKEs moved,- as 'fn
Amendment, to leave out all the words after "That,"
and to substitute" Sir Christopher HawkinS be ex-
pelled."
After debating some time, Mr. Banker's Amend-
ment was, we understood (fur the doors remained
closed during the remainder of the discussion),:ne-
gatived without a divisioL The original Motion
for an Address to his Majesty, praying him to direa
the Attorney-General to prosecute Sir C. HAWKINS,
was carried ; as were also similar Motions for the
prosecutiob of eighteen persons of the Committee
'of the Eleaors of Penrhyn, who had fixed the price
for which the votes were to be sold, and who had inr
yited Sir C. Hawkins, by a Deputation from their
body, to purchase them.
It was moved by Capt. HERBERT, that Moon, an
accomplice in the transaaion, but who had given
evidence before the Sele& Committee of the House
,of Commons, should also be prosecuted. by; order of
the House.—This Motion was resisted, on the
ground of his having already given evidence before
the Committee of the House, and of his testimony
being essential to the prosecutions that had been or-
dered. The House divided on this question—
