SIR JAMES DOWLING, LATE
CHIEF JUSTICE OF NEW SOUTH WALES'
We have great pleasure in transferring to our columns,
from the Australian. Daily Journal, of the 28th ST
temper, the following testimony to the character a tl
late Sir James Dowling, whose death we announce,
some weeks back, but the official intelligence of which
has but just reached this country:—
Another of the ornaments of our colonial history
gone. Before this will have reached the eyes of WO
of our readers, they will have heard of the
melancholy
fact of the death of the Hon. Sir James Dowling,
the Chief Justice of the colony—an event which occurred
yesterday afternoon, at 20 minutes before 4 o'clock. bit
James had suffered under a painful illness during thelo
three months, from which, about five weeks ago, be gale
some hopes -of recovery. Unfortunately ho sustained *
relapse, which proved too much for his feeble and er
hausted frame, The history of the career of a tor
like Sir Jathes Dowling is scarcely to be written in ti
°ill
columns of a newspaper. We may chronicle his arril:sl
amongst uc—t ,e years that he sat upon the judic!
bench—and la respect and esteem which attended ID!
throughout ; but the details which would give life to
skeleton sketch, must necessarily be wanting. ic!„
arrived here about seventeen years ago, and took
hf
seat on the bench, and on the departure to Europe °i
the late lamented Sir Francis Forbes, about eight yeast
since, Sir James Dowling succeeded to the COl
Per' „,
;
Justiceship. During the whole of this Pe
it is a well-known fact that he scarcely kveo
one day's relaxation from his heavy toils. Few hi°,
ever left life more rich in all that should acconiP*l3/
old age—public approbation, the affection and reverenre
of all ranks, all sects—the esteem of great men, and t,
gratitude of humble ones. It would be no eulogy t,,74
of so long and active a career that it was acconielisi',,,
without reproach ; but this negative praise would ill exPrtt
the fervid and generous qualities of virtues that Were 13'
merely active, but had in them something of enthusias°?;
The Local Legislature, by their recent vote* /
esben
was hoped that his return to convalescence was certain
gave the most decided manifestation of their high resPe.
and esteem for his public character—and the vari?P
departments of the legal profession vied with each otnera
on the same occasion, in addressing him in the langt
of the warmest and most affectionate regard. As a Pue,
and a statesman, he was humane, gentle impartial, e
tensively informed, firmly attached to the well-belovict
constitution of his own country, and a zealous promovt€:s
of those measures by which a new constitution
granted to this : he was a warm friend of that gonl,.'ilset
social liberty, which is but another name for the bin the
and most comprehensive justice ; and his labours on
bench, and in the late council chamber, are a monurnera
not more of his talents as a judge, than of his pure an
upright character as a than.

Twenty-three of' the same body have, since the leaf!!

Count Pahlen, at last, gave this young Prince to under-

care to avoid the mention of a crime, to which Alex-

Alexander shed a flood of tears, disclaimed any wish
to dispute the throne with his father, but yielded, by
degrees, before fresh proofs of the danger to which
Paul exposed the affairs of the country, and even the
imperial family itself. Paul, in fact, dissatisfied with
the supineness of Prussia, in the affairs of the neutral
league, even talked of marching 80,000 men upon
Berlin. Besides this, in the delirium of his arrogant
pride, he wished the First Consul to take biro as his
adviser in all things, and that this powerful personage.
should not make peace with Germany, nor with the
cabinets of Piedmont, Rome, Naples, or the Porte, ex-

ailoynterms with France, whose policy he had so
ex-

amicabletl greatly u
re
warmly espoused. To these suggestions Count Pahlen
added the expression of his uneasiness concerning the
safety of the royal family, of whom Paul, it was said,
began to harbour suspicions.
Alexander acquiesced at length ; but, at the same
time exacted from Count Pahlen the most solemn
oath, that no attempt should be made against the life of
his father ; Count Pahlen swore to every thing desired
by this inexperienced youth, who imagined that a sceptre
could be wrested from the grasp of an emperor, without
depriving him of life.
The requisite actors in the scene yet remained to be
provided, as Count Pahlen, in conceiving this scheme,
deemed it beneath him to take any personal share in its
execution. He fixed upon them accordingly, but decided
upon only intrusting them, sooner or later, with the part
they were destined to perform, according as they, by
degrees, acquired his confidence. The brothers Soubow,
upstarts raised-by the favour of Catherine, were chosen
as the chief instruments of the plot. Count Pallier'
only revealed it to them at a late period. Plato.Seubow,,
the favourite of Catherine, supple, restless, was worthy
of figuring conspicuously in the revolution of a palace.
His brother Nicholas, remarkable only for great per-
sonal strength, was well qualified to play a subordinate
part ; Valerien Soubow, a brave and honourable soldier,
a friend of the Grand Duke Alexander, deserved, from
his merit, to have been excluded from the plot. They
had a sister, intimately connected with all the English
faction—a friend of Lord Whitworth, the English Am-
bassador—who inflamed them with zeal for the British
policy. Count Pahlen engaged many other accomplices,
and brought them to St, Petersburgh, underyarious pre-
tences, but still without disclosing any thing to them.
There was one other individual whom he had summoned
to St. Petersburgh, upon whose co-operation he knew
he could rely, as well as upon his formidable courage ;
this was the famous General Benningsen, a Hanoverian,
in the service of Russia, the first officer in the Russian
service at that time, and who, at a later period, in 1807,
had the honour to check, in Poland, the victorious march
of Napoleon, and whose hands, worthy, indeed, of
wielding a sword, should never have been sullied by
a poinard.
Benningsen had retired into the country, dreading the
effects of Paul's anger, which he had incurred ; Count
Pahlen withdrew him from his retreat, initiated him
into the plot, but proposed nothing further to him, if
General Benningsen can be credited, than the project of
deposing the emperor. Benningsen pledged his word,
and kept it with an appalling courage.
They resolved, to fix upon some day for the execution
of their project, when the regiment of Semenourki,
wholly devoted to the Grand Duke Alexander, should be
on duty at the Palace Michael. They were obliged to
wait. But time pressed, for Paul's malady made rapid
progress, became every day more alarming, and placed
the interests of the empire, as well as the safety of his ,
attendants, in greater jeopardy. One day Paul laid hold
of the imperturbable Pahlen by the arm, and addressed
him in these singular terms;—" Were you at St. Peters-
burgh in 1762?" (It was in that year that the Em.
peror, the father of Paul, was assassinated, to transfer
the throne to the Great Catherine.) " Yes," answered
Count Pahlen, quite coolly, " I was." "What part did
you take in the event of that time?" " That of a subal-
tern cavalry officer in the ranks of his regiment. I was
a witness of, but not an actor in, that catastrophe."
" Well," continued Paul, casting a look of distruat, and
of accusation at his Minister, " they want to re-enact
to-day the revolution of 1762." "1 am aware of it,"
replied Count Pahlen, without betraying the least emo-
tion. " I know all the plot; I am a party to it."
" What!" exclaimed Paul, are you one of the conspira-
tors?" " Yes! but to be better apprised of it, and that
I may be in a position more effectually to watch over
your safety." The calmness of this formidable con-
spirator quite set all Paul's conjectures at defiance, and
disarmed his suspicions respecting him; but he still con-
tinaed discomposed and excited.
An event of almost public interest, if such a term
may be employed with reference to such a crime, con-
curred to hasten their proceeding. Paul ordered
dispatch to be written, on the 23d of March, to M. de
Krudener, his minister at Berlin, enjoining him to de-
clare to the court of Prussia, that if she did not promptly
act against England, he would promptly order an
army of 80,000 men, to march upon the Prussian
frontiers. Count Palhen, desirous, without saying too
much, to induce M. de Ktudener to attach no importance
to this declaration, added, in his own handwriting, the
following postscript:—" His Imperial Majesty is labour-
ing under indisposition to-day; the consequences may prove
serious."

J 1

The 23d of March was fixed upon for the execution
of the plot; Count Pahlen, under colour of giving a
dinner party, assembled at his house the Soubowa,-
Benningsen, and several general officers, upon whom he
thought he could rely. Wines of all kinds were served
with profusion. Pahlen and Benningsen did not drink
any. When dinner was over they unfolded to the con-
spirators the project for which they were assembled.
The most part were now, for the first time, made
acquainted with this terrible plot. They were not told
that they would be required to assassinate Paul, as
almost every one would have shrunk with dismay from
the perpetration of such a crime. They were told
that they must proceed to the palace, and compel him to
abdicate, that thus they would deliver the empire from
an imminent danger, and that they would save a mul-
titude of innocent lives, at present threatened by the
sanguinary madness of Paul. At last, in order to
succeed in persuading them, it was affirmed that the
Grand Duke Alexauder himself, convinced of the neces-
sity of saving the empire, was acquainted with the
project, and approved it. Then these men, already
excited with wine, no longer demurred, and, for the most
part, with only three or four exceptions, set out under
the impression that they were going to depose a mad
emperor, and not to shed the blood of an unfortunate
master.
The night appearing sufficiently advanced, the con-
spirators, to .the number of ahont sixty, sallied forth,
divided into two bands. Collet Pahlen took one under
his direction, General Benningsen the command of the
other ; both officers, dressed in their full uniform, and
wearing their sashes and orders, marched forward,
sword in hand. The palace Michael was constructed
and guarded like a fortress ; but the - bridges were
lowered,.and the gates thrown open to the chiefs of the
conspirators. Benningsen's party marched first, and
proceeded direct towards the Emperor's apartments.
Count Pahlen remained behind, with his reserved body
of conspirators. This man, who had organised the con-
spiracy, disdained to assist personally is its execution.
He was only there to provide for any unexpected
emergencies. Benningsen penetrated into the apart-
ment of the sleeping monarch. Two heyduks were on
duty as his body-guard. These brave and faithful
attendants attempted to defend their sovereign. One
was struck down by a blow from a sabre, the other took
flight, crying out for help—cries utterly unavailing in a
palace, the guards of Which are almost all accomplices
in the plot! A valet, who slept in a room adjoining
that of the Emperor, ran to the scene; they compelled
him, by force, to open the door of his master's chamber.
The unhappy Paul might have found a refuge in
the apartments of the Empress ; but, in his dis-
trustful suspicions, he had taken the precaution,
every night, to barricade the door which led to
them. All escape being cut off, he flung himself to
the bottom of the bed, and concealed himself behind
the folds of a screen. Plato Soubow ran to the imperial
bed, and, finding it empty, cried out, in alarm, tt The
emperor has escaped; we are lost 1" But, at the same
instant, Benningsen caught sight of the prince, rushed
towards him, sword in hand, and presented to him the
act of abdication. " You have ceased to reign 1" he ex-
claimed to him ; " the Grand Duke Alexander is now
emperor. I summon you, in his name, to resign the
empire, and to sign this act of abdication. On this con-
dition alone I answer for your life." Plato Soubow re-
peated the same summons. The emperor, confused and
lost in dismay, demanded of them what he had done to
deserve such treatment. " For years past pu have never
ceased to persecute us," retorted the half-intoxicated as.
sassins. They then pressed upon the unhappy Paul,
who struggled hard, expostulated, and implored them in
vain. At this moment a noise was heard ; it was the
footsteps of some of the conspirators who had remained
behind ; but the assassins, believing that some one was
coming to the assistance of the emperor, fled in disorder.
Benningsen alone, inflexibly resolute, remained in the
presence of the monarch, and, advancing towards him,
with his sword pointed at his breast, prevented him stir-
ring from the spot. The conspirators having recognised
each other, re-entered the chamber, the theatre of their
crime. They again hemmed in the unfortunate monarch,
in order to force him to subscribe his abdication. The
emperor fur an instant tried to defend himself. In the
scuffle the lamp which gave light to the frightful scene
was overturned and extinguished ;
Benningsen ran to
procure another, and, on his return, discovered Paul ex.
pining under the blow s of two assassins ; one had broken
in his skull with the pummel of his sword, whilst the
other was strangling him with his sash.
Whilst this scene was enacting, Count Pahlen had
remained outside with the second band of conspirators.
When he was told that all was over, he ordered the body
of the emperor to be laid out on the bed, and placed a
guard of thirty men at the door of the apartment, with
orders not to admit any one, even the members of the
imperial family. He then repaired to the Grand Duke,
to announce to him the terrible occurrence of the night.
