Our Readers are aware that we have studiously
maintained thegreateStpossible reserve in speak-
lINr 4 the evidence before the house of

On this subject I've have received some friendly
expostulation's from individuals of perfect inte-
grity and independence, who have considered our
remarks too Mild for the occasion. It' has been
truly observed that tlio trumpet Of, sedition is
daily sounded With increasing vehemence and
audacity by the factious Press, and especially-
by that Paper WhoSe worthlessness and protii-
.

posed. All this is undoubtedly" true'.. What Was

the most foul and caltinmious,ttchich,had appeared

Whether their Lords:l4S had seen. it. or not ; he
alluded to The Miles, of that morning, Which
contained a gross attack on fhe conduct of the
Law Officers 01 the Crown. in 'theSt 'Proceed-
ings, and a scandalous misrepresentation of the
nature of the evidence.." Certainly we feel it to
be our p`ublic , duty to expose the flagitious at-
tenipts made by caemporary writers-to impede
the course of justice, and to pull doivt►all lawlul

from entering into particular discussions on theie
