by small rosettes. The trimming at the bottom of the skirt con-

full rouleau at each edge. The epaulette consists of large puffs
of crape, something in the crescent form, drawn through bands

other, form the shape at the sides. Short full sleeve, confined

The CORONER read a letter from Captain Oakes,
stating that he and two of the other Officers sum-
moned, were in waiting at the Ilyde-park Hotel.
Mt. HANSON, jun. made an apology on behalf of
Lieutenant Gore, who being at a distance, would not
be able to attend before the next meeting.
The Foreman said be thought the apology ought
not to be received, and that a warrant ought to issue
to compel his attendance.
This opinion was supported by several of the Ju-
rors ; and one of them observed, that implicated as
Lieutenant Gore appeared to be, it' was matter of
doubt with him whether he ought not to be in ac-
tual custody.
Mr. HANSON, jun. said he would take upon him-
self to say that he would be forthcoming. He would.
have been in attendance at that moment, but there had
not been sufficient time for him to obey the summons.
A Juror.—" In what part of the country is he?"
Mr. IlAwsox, jun.—" That is a question I do not
feel myself at liberty to answer."
Juror.—" Will you say at what distance he is
from London ?"

Mr. HaNsoN declined answering this question also.
Another Juror asked whether Lieutenant Gore had
received leave of absence from his regiment, and
when such leave of absence was granted? but this
question, like the others, remained unanswered, upon
which another Juryman proposed that the Inquest
should immediately adjourn over from day to day till
Lieut. Gore was produced. The conduct of the regi-
ment, he observed, had been most ungentlemanly.
CORONER." Vhy, I really do not know what
you would have. Thtee of the four Officers you
have summoned are now in attendance upon you,
and you are angry and refuse to examine them, be-
cause the fourth is not present, though his Solicitor
assures you he shall be forthcoming."
Several of the Jurors still contended that it would
be highly improper to examine the other Officers till
Lieutenant Gore was in attendance; and they, there-
fore, pressed an immediate adjournment. Some very
strong observations were also made, again, on the
alleged want of gentlemanly conduct and ingenu-
ousness on the part of Lieutenant Gore and several
of the other Officers of the Ist Life Guards.
Mr. ADOLPHUS appealed to the Coroner on their
behalf; and contended that such remarks ought not
to be tolerated in any Court.
The CORONER said he did not see any reason to
complain of the conduct of the Officers. On the
contrary, he thought they had conducted themselves
in a very gentlemanly manner ; and it would be bet-
ter if those sort of remarks were used more sparingly.
The Foreman said this reproof came with very ill
grace from the Coroner, he having repeatedly treated
them with very unceremonious observations when
they happened not to please him exactly.
The CORONER declared he was unconscious of
having done so.
Foreman.— It was but the other day, Sir, that you
told me I ought to be ashamed of myself ; and the
words found their way into every Newspaper in Lon-
don. I think that was an observation which might
have very well been spared.
CORONER-1 do not recollect having used these
precise words, but if I did use them, I dare say I had
good cause. I know I have often found you very
wrong; and I would not scruple to say so anywhere.
This conversation was interrupted by some of the
Jurors again proposing the question of adjournment.
Mr. Btakie (a Juror) opposed the adjournment on
account of the delay it would occasion ; as he under-
stood Lieutenant Gore was in Paris, and it was there-
fore agreed that the Inquest should proceed.
Mr. Blakie begged once more to ask Mr. Adol-
phus for whom, or on what account he attended that
investigation?
Mr. Antmeitus replied that he attended on behalf
of those whom it was sought to implicate.
Mt. Blakie said, that in that case he was requested
by many of his brother Jurors to protest against the
principle on which the Learned Gentleman attended.
The Coroner and the Jury were assembled for the
investigation of the truth ; and no person ought to
be permitted to participate in the proceedings but for
the purpose of assisting their inquiries. The Learned
Gentleman, however, told them that he came there
to protect his clients' whoever they might be, and,
therefore, even upon his own sheaving, his object was
to impede their inquiry instead of promoting it, and
such an object he (Mr. Blakie) thought ought not to
be tolerated. He recollected hearing the Learned
Gentleman, on another occasion, tell his hearers that
it was one of the brightest features in British juris-
prudence, that a Barrister knew nothing of the evi-
dence except as it appeared in his brief ; and yet in
direct contravention of that principle he was here mi-
nutely sifting the evidence, point by point, upon
which, if by possibility any of his clients should be
put upon their trial, he would afterwards be called
upon to plead before a Jury as Counsel for the ac-
cused. Surely this was au anomaly which the
Learned Gentleman would hardly attempt to defend.
After some farther remarks, Mr. Blakie concluded by
declaring, that the interference of the Learned Gen-
tleman was neither founded on principle, on reason,
on law, nor on justice; it was a direct insinuation that
the Coroner was unfit for his office ; and that the Jury
were disposed to swerve from that duty which they
had solemnly sworn to perform.—(l/ear, hear, from
nuzny Vibe Jurors).
Mr. Am:maims did not rise to reply. He merely
observed, that he did not feel disposed to answer
anything but what came through the Court.
The Foreman asked what the Learned Gentleman
meant by " The Court ?" Would he at admit that
the Jury formed a part of it ?

It was at length or.!cred that the examination of
witne.ses shonlJ proceed, and the officer was ordered
to call Captain Oakes from the Hyde Park Hotel. -
During his absence, Mr. ADOLPHUS produced a
letter, which he said he found upon his table on his
return to town that morning. It was handed round
to the Jury, and one of the Jurors (Mr. Blakie)
served, that he had himself received a similar one.—
We understand that these letters were of a threaten-
ing nature.
The Coroner's officer now returned, and reported
that Captain Oakes would attend in a few minutes.
In the interim several other witnes-es were examined.
George Poland sworn—l live at 130, Oxford-street,
and am a furrier. I know nothing whatever of the
death of Richard Honey. I was at Cumberland-gate
on the day of the Procession, but I did not see an
Officer fire. I heard reports, but did not see any in-
dividual fire. I have two brothers; one in Germany
and the other at school. I never said I knew any
thing of the death of Honey. I have a servant who
has been examined on this Inquest. His name is
James Denyer.
Witness was told he might withdraw.
Joseph Baynham was next called in and sworn ; but
he declared he knew nothing of the death of Honey.
By the Jury.—l live at No. 3, George-court, Pic•
cadilly, and am by trade a linen-draper. I was in
the Green Park on the day of the funeral, and saw
the hearse turned back from Piccadilly into Hyde
Park. I did not see. the Park gates opened, nor do
I know who opened them. I saw "the soldiers assist
the Marshalmen to turn the hearse back. I don't
know whether the gates were blocked up or not.
From what passed at Hyde Park-corner, I was in-
duced to follow the Procession through the Park. I
found everything at Cumberland-gate in confusion.
I took a station within the Park, between Cumber-
land-gate and the turnpike; and in a moment after,
five
-or six of the Life Guards passed me, and I saw
several pieces of brick thrown after them. These
Guards were going towards the place where the
hearse was then standing, and the moment they
reached it, they turned about and commenced a fu-
rious attack on the people; retracing their steps, and
driving the people before them towards Tyburn-.
gate ; and almost immediately after I heard the re-
port of a pistol in the direction of Bayswater, but I
did not see by whom it was fired. Several of the
soldiers then came back from pursuing the people, I
and stationing .themselves nearly opposite where
was standing, I saw several of them discharge their
pistols, and about the same time I heard the dis-
charge of fire-arms in the direction of Cumberland-
street. At this time there were very few people in
the streets, none scarcely, except what were on the
wall; and I was quite surprised that they thought it
necessary to fire at all. I became alarmed, and
went away..

James king, a footman, in livery, to Mrs. Delmar,
213, Oxford-street.—l know very little of the death
of Honey. I did mot see him shot, but I saw him
carried away. I was in the balcony of my mistress's
house part of the time, but was not there ac the com-
mencement of the riot. When I first saw it, I should
think there were a dozen and a half of soldiers and
one Officer present. The Officer wore no cloak. I
should think that Officer to be not More than twenty,
if so much. I know nothing of a cloak with a name
in it being left at a public-house in Cumberland?
street. I have heard of it, but do not know of it of
my own knowledge. I and the coachman are the
only livery servants in our family. I saw firing, but
I did not see the Officer fire ; nor did I observe whe-
ther he had any pistol in his hand. The house I live
in is nearly opposite Park-lane. I saw many stones
and pieces of bricks thrown from the left hand
side near the Park-gate. I did not see any thrown
from that part of the street where No. 243 stands.
If there had been any thrown I must have seen them.
I can't say that I heard the cry of " murder !" I am
sure I should not know the Officer again, nor do I
think I should recollect the trumpeter. He appeared
to be about '25. I had a very distinct view of him,
but I am sure I should not be able to point him out.
John Humphries is the name of Mrs. Delmar's coach,.
man. He was in the balcony before me.
The CORONER :islet' if the witness was cure of this,
because, he observed, if they were both iu the bal-
cony at the same time, there would be. no necessity
for calling the other ?

Witnes.; 'replied that the coachman was certainly
there first.
captain Richard Mayan Oakes, of the Ist Regi-
ment of Life Guards, was next called, and having
been sworn,
Mr. ADOLPHUS rose, and told Captain Oakes that
he was not bound to answer any question which might
tend to involve himself in a criminal prosecution.
The CODONER.—" Certainly not. That is the law."
captain Oakes then proceeded.—l commanded the
party of the Life Guards on the day of the Proces-
sion. Ido not know of my own knowledge how the
deceased came by his death.
By the Jury.—Lieutenant Gore had the command
of the detachment at Cumberland-gate. The de-
tachment was not under my command. Lieutenant
Gore does not beloni; to my troop. Ido not know
that there was any other Officer stationed at Cum.
berhrd-gate. I do not know anything of Lieute-
nant Gore having leave of absence. It is usual lot
Officers to take their pistols out on such occasions as
that of the 14th. Lieutenant Terry had the corn.
mand at llyde Park-gate. Originally, I believe, the
party was only commanded by a corporal. 1 WAS at
