His Lordship adverted to Bellinghatn!s_cltse,
which an application :to postpone • the trial bath
.been refused, although it-had•,been shown-to.tho)
:Court that several witnesses were on their jo,or-
'ney.frorn Liverpool , to prove the insanity of the.
prisoner. EVen an earthquake
,should not
duce him.to yield to such,an•
,unfair interruption,
of justice.—(Cries:of " Adjourn, adjourn.)
• Lord GREY said, that the House ought. not
to adjourn withont coming .to some conclusion:
upon the question which would be for discuS-
sion in the morning. He wished the Lord
Chancellor- to put the question to the Attorney'
General—" Are you now ready to prove at the
Bar of the Muse those facts which can only.
entitle you to be heard, in such an application?"
The ATTO E Y-GENER..I I; replied, that he
thought he was prepared with documents suffi'.
cient to skew that he Was entitled to the favor'
he asked. _

Earl Gn-EY'Said, that it was a monstrous. proe
Osition;contrary- to the rules of practice in the
Courts of Law, and was unequalled, except by
the Attorney-General making it when he WO
only able to say, " I believe I shall be able to
show sufficient grounds for the application."
The Lonn CANCEtLOIL then put two queFid.
tions. to the Counsel—one to the Attorney-Geue-
ral, and the other to Mr. Brougham.
The first to the Attorney4eneral was, "
•on what evidence or documents do you make

this application ?."
The. ATTORNEY and SOLICITOR-C EIIERAL Tv,
plied, that they had a letter, to which was an•
nexed an affidavit, which le,p,-er, &C. had arrived
from Lugano, and which stated the ret.sons
the witnesses had beeti detained in Italy. Bali
Counsel strongly contended that such evi-(iencl.
irtiuld, in a Court below, be quite, sufficient to
put oil' a trial. If it was said that affidavits could
not be produced in that Hotise as evidence, the!
replied in answer to that that a person could be
produced at the Bar of the House, ,who would
siv-ear to his belief of the facts, and that was lilt
that was required in the Courts below.
The question put to Mr. Brougham was the
following :—" If the Attorney-General Nvill now
state that-his case is closed, will you -waive your
right of cross-Otarnination of, the witnesses at II

future period ?"
iVir. flaoucli.ot replied, that under these cir-
cumstances, if One, of the witnesses was called
back, and asked two or three questions, he shoujj
have nQ objection to waive hiS right a

amhiation. • '*"
The House then adjourned till Ten o'Cioci;
this day.
