. CASE OF MR. BIDDLTLPH.
. .
The Marquis of NORMANBY wished to correct a
misapprehension which had gone abroad as to what
be: had said last: evening .en the subject of
Mr. Biddulph's case. It was supposed that he
had -expressed himself as satiified that no. blame
attached. to the Lord Chancellor,, or. the. Lord Chief.
.Justice, nor either to the Noble. Lord at the head of the
Irish GovernineninenL. What he had said was, that no
blame could attach to either.:of thoSe Judges, and that
whilst he did not *blame. his Noble. Friend, the Lord
Lieutenant, vet he regretted that his Noble Friend should
not blame the Attorney and Solicitor-General for .leav-
ing him in ignorance;- but he alio said that he hoped
that what had occurred would prevent his Noble Friend
from allowing himself- to be kept in ignorance in future.
• The Earl of RIPON had understood his Noble Friend
to say -that he entirely acquitted. the Lord Chief Justice,
the/40'rd Chancellor,-and the -Lord Lieutenant, but that
the Miele blame lay with the Law Officers of the Crown.
The Marquis of NORMANBY had said more than
simply that, for 'he had expressed his regret that his
Noble Friend did not blame the Attorney.. General for
keeping hilm,in ignorance, whereas he had expected his
Noble Friend:to expreSs great indignation on the subject.
The Earl-of CLARENDON gave notice that on Mon •
day next be would present an important petition from
the Cape of Good Hope: •-

ilaviny stated so noel), he did'not think it iiceessary to
Cii!-Lh:_r to the :Ali- us points rciermd to by
Noble Lord in his - speech. Discussion of the
kind • could 11::• but. prejudicial to • the gevernment of
offitirs in India No intermation could be elicite.i
by such discussions, inasmuch as, in the present state of
our information on the subject, no responsible servant of
the Government were conipetent to throw much light on
the state of the matter.. He deprecated any discussion
on these topics. If papers had been withheld by Govern-
ment, it was because the exigency of the public service
required it. If the Noble Lord had moved for
the production of papers on the subject, he
(Lord Fitzgerald) should have been prepared to :resist
the motion. He would content himself, in conclusion,
with observing that he trusted the Noble Lord would not
think it necessary to renew this discussion, which it was
most desirable should be avoided.

Lord BEAUMONT expl.tined. He had merely stated
that he believed that certain papers had been withheld
by the Government, without the production of which no
accurate information on the subject could be obtained.
Lord FITZGERALD was not able to give the Noble
Lord the satisfaction which he desired, of hearing that
there was a likelihood of a war with Russia.
The petition was then ordered to lie on the table as
the petition of Mr. Whitby.
The House then adjourned to Monday.
