Onto* all tit • gradations in the Army, did he their sta.,
the pirtricti!ar terms at which he disposed of each
cominissiOn ? A. 1 do not recollect the terms fa*
each ; but I recollect that 500 guineas was the prite . i
fora Majority.—Q. Did you at that time know or
believe that Captain San 161 was agent to Mrs. Clarke? 1
A. Na. I never did Until I heard it from Mrs. Clarke.
Q. At the time that Mrs. Clarke threatened to expose
the Duke, did she apply to )01r to be instrumental
in any manner in her projects ? A She Ms and, I • i
am afraid, 'I should implicate many persons if I were
to state all those who were-associated with her in this •
business.—Q. What did she say to. you to Induce yoa
to participate in 'her projects of revenge ? A. She told
me .that unlesi his Royal Highness came to the I
terms that she had stated, he would be ousted from
his command, and then he would repair to Oatlands 1
where soon after he would tut his throat.—Q. Do you
recollect any thing further ? A. I then endeavoured
to persuade her to tell me who were her associates in
the plot. She answered if I ivould go with the tide,
she would provide for me and my friends.handsome.;
ly ; for, in that case, she would have an absolute
carte blare/se, and be enabled to do morebusiness than
ever she had before done. • •
. ,
Q. (By General Lorrys.) Did she state who were '
her associates in the plot ? A. She said, that in this
respect she was bound to • secrecy.—Q. Hew. then,
Sir, could you implicate so many people as you a..
pressed yourself afraid of doing. when • Mrs. Clarke
would not tell you who those associate* 'were ? A.
I certainly coeld name one or two persons who offer-
ed her money for the papers in her possession.—(Loud
cries, Name! name )—One of them. was Sir France
Burdett.—( General laughing.)—She said that he had
offered her £lOOO, for the papers -in her possession,
but that she would not give them Carless than £lO,OOO.
Q. Who were the others? A. I donot wislito mention.
The CHAIRMAN informed the witness that he must
answer the question. .
The witness, after a considerable appearance of he.
sitation, said, Captain Dodd.
Q. You have stated that if yen were to mention
all the associates in that plot, you would implicate a
great number of persons ; how much farther do yon
mean to go; can you name nobody else t A. I can
go no further.; I recollect only those whom I have
mentioned.—Q. Are the many you spoke of reduced
to two ? A. I know-only of those two.—Q. What
terms did Captain Dodd offer ? A. Ido not know
that he offered any particular terms, but I understood
that tie wished to get possession of them.—Q. Pray
what particular situation does Captain Dodd hold ?
1 A. / really cannot tell.Q. Do you know of leis
holding any official situation ? A. I believe be holds
an official situation under the Duke of Kent; but I
do not know what situation.—Q. Do you know any
other's connected in this plot ? A. No, only by the
report of Mrs. Clarke, which I do not believe. ,
The witness then looked at some enetnorandume -
which he held in his hand. This was objected to as
improper, and the witness was ordered to withdraw.
Mr. S. BOURNE thought, that irregularity had
gone as far in the course of their preeeedinga as could
be permitted. Much the greater part of the quits-
ticins and answers which were on the minute* of she
proceedings, were merely about general hearsay-and .-
• surmise, and would not be listened to as evidence in
any court of justice in the kingdom. He had wit-
nessed a great deal of this irregularity, without wish-
ing to stop the course of the examination; -but he
thought it had gone quite too far. What Mrs. Clarke
i said to Mr. Donovan, or what Mr. Donovan said to
I Mrs. Clarke, could be no sort of evidence against the
Duke of York, and could not be admitted as evidence .
at all, unless to impeach the credit of one of these
witnesses. He, therefore, thought the committee
would do well to confine themselves to such kind of
evidence as would bz admitted in a cow t of law. -
Lord TEMPLE thought the irregularity had gone
much too far, especially when it was recollected th a
at the bq;inning the witnesses were told they were to
answer nothing from opinion or surmise, but merely
speak of facts within their own. knowledge.
Mt. WINDHAM- thought, that although 'they
had gpt too much into irregularity, -yet it was oo .
proper that they should confine themselves within th:
strict rules of the courts of law. .
After a short discussion, it appeared to be the sense
of the Committee that the witnesses in future .ihossid
not speak as to hearsay or surmise,. but only speak, of
facts that came within their own knowledge.

Q. Do yoU know Major Tonyn t A. Yes, I do--
Q. What do you know of his transaction t. A. Mrs.
Clarke asked me whether I. had any military friends
who wanted promotion. I had none at that time, but
I met Mr. Donovan the next day, and be told use
that he had a friend, a Captain Tonyn, who wa4ted
a Majority, and•would give $O9 guineas toget it. : I
tad this to Mrs. Clarke, and she,-bid me. by oilloons
close with him. I told this to Mr. DOMOVItD; and a

Strand, to pay 500 ' guineas. as Mon as . Captain
