TRIAL OF THE' QUEEN.

110USE'OF LORDS,. OCTOBER 211.
DEFENCE—TWENTIETH DAY.
(lit continuation frees Pie fiat Edition of yest•rtlay's Stan.)
Mr. DENMAN, in continuation was worthy of notice
that Sac:hi was also at Charnitz, and yet the learned Counsel
opposite dii not dare to question him in confirmation of the evi-
dence of De Mont. He now came to the affair at Carlsruhe ;
And it was impossible not to look back on the just grounds of
complaint which that Illustrious Lady has had to make. She
knew that she was surrounded by persons who were anxious to
destroy her, and, although in the course of her journies, she ex-
posed herself at no Jess than fifty Inns, yet no'attempt had been
madeto.inspeach her conduct at any of them, except by-tharve?
.ritable witness, Pietro Cuethi, and that worthy lady Mrs. Barbara
gtess i It could net be doabted that the Princess was watched
by personSof high authority; if not, how came an Hanoverian
Minister at Rome? What connection was there between that
• Protestant and this Papal &ate ? Majocchi bad been in-
- strutted by some one to say that he . did not know this Ha-
noverian Envoy, Ompteda, but that his name was as strange
to him as that of one of the Chiefs in the Sandwich Islands; and
De Mont, though net denying a knoWledge'of his name, says
she never heard of any improper conduct on his part, nor
of any pickipg of locks, Sacchi, an active agent of the
31ilan Commission, says he accompanied Mr. Cook, the
head of that Commission, to Frankfort, to get the evidence
of Maurice Credi—that Maurice Credi whom Mr. Hownam
states was employed to steal the keys of her Royal Highness's
cabinet by Ompteda. Why, then, was not Credi called? he
lived with the Priecess at the time, and might, no doubt, have
been a good witness Tor the prosecution ; but he would have
been, unfortunately, compAed to acknowledge this important
fact. The fact that Credi was examined at Frankfort, and
had not been examined here, was in itself of -no an
importance. He would -now call their attention to the wit-
ness Carrington, and he could not do so, without noticing that
no sooner had this witness left the Bar Of their Lordships,
to the satisfaction of evefy one who had heard his testimony,
than materials were laid for his' cross.examination by the
first Lord of the Admiralty; books were searched, atui his Cap-
tain brought to town tole examined. He would not complain
of this, but seriously thanked the Noble Lord for that cross-exa-
mination; and he would say, that in whatever rank in.society
Carrington's lot might be cast—nature made hint a Dendaman.
The character of this witness rose higher from every.. erns?.
examinatioa, and his testimony could not be shaken. The
Learned Gentleman then proceeded to notice how the evi-
dence of this witness overturned the testimony of Majoc-
chi, as. to Baron Onipteda, at whose conduct • he, Majocchi,
felt so indignant, that he said, If be met him, he would kill
' Baal like a dog ! After Carrington Ild been cross-examined so
frequently, a paper was at last produced, which proved that he
had been rat..d as a midshipman on board_the.Poictiers, and Sir
John Beresford said, he never parted with any one with so
Much regret, as he was a most excellent sailor. Ile could not
but'notice bow differently situated . the Counsel for the Queen
were to their Opponent.. Her Majesty's Counsel hail DO
44miralty books to refer to—no ..means of getting witnesses
to come, or of compelling the produition of a single paper.
He would not condemn foreign wimesses, but it was a great
disadvantage to the defence, that they had to meet persons of
whose charatter and conduct in life they were entirely ignorant,
and of whose existence they never knew until plated at the bar
against her, And yet, foftunately for her Majesty, every wit-
nets iiiinst her had been confuted out of his own mouth by
his contradictory testimony ; for De Mont and MajocChi, not-
w ithstailing the evidence theyhad given.at the Bar of that lionise,
' had acknowledged that the Princess was surrJunded by persons
anxious to betray, and why distorted every action of her life..
In respect to Callsruhe, it'appeared (hat not fewer than three

logues had of Mr. Robins, Warwick-street, Golden-square- her agitation and her blushes were caused by a'very different
feclingr-liy the struggle between truth and.periiiry. The evi-
dence pf Mr. Hownam, which proved the whole course of the '
Princess's condUct at Ciulstarhe, gave the lie In the most po-
sitive manlier to all -the assertions of-this abandoned woman.
The Learned Counael dual read extracts of the evidence of
Mr. Hownam, which stated thia'periods at Which she returned
from the entertainments of the Grand Duke and the .hlargra-
bTine, which her Royal Highness bad attended every nay during
ey stay at that place. Everything that had taken place' at
Carbruhe was fully accounted for, . not only by the evidence
of Lieutenant Hownam, bus by that of Vassali, who proved
*that this Lady, nvho bad been represented as the most profli-
gate of the species; hod been constantly ,in the. society of
the highest characters. But if the conduct of this female
waiter was worthy of execration, what could be said of that
of the male waiter, who was celebrated for having placed his eye
to the key-hole, and for having seen Bergami go into her Royal
Highness's bed-room 'three or four several days, undressed !
What could he said of Cuchi, who had sworn that her
Royal highness had delayed six days at the lon at Trieste;
for the purpose of making the ease coMplete against her?
If the face of that witness could be forgotten, the character given
of him by his Learnod.Friend never could. Their Lordships
would consider that there were but two witnesses called to state
facts of the hideous deicription which went directly to prove
the criminal intercourse, and that those witnesses had been effete
tually contradicted. Kress had been contradicted by Mr.llownam
and Count Vossall, and Cuchi was contradicted by everybody !
That worthy person swore that he tsw Bergami go Into her
Royal Highness's room three or four days successively in a
state of undress ; when it appeared, upon the acknowledgment
of all, that her Royal Highness was at Trieste but one day !
The more, in fact, this cave was loOlted at with the eye of a
lawyer, the more absurd did the evidence of the. facts appear.
But the villain who had thus perjpred himself should not
escape with impunity ; another Court should see him, if he
still remained in Cotton-Garden--if he had not been sent away
to bear joyful tidings to the relative, of those inestimable per-
sons who were still doing honour to this country by remaining
in it I For the- sake of the English nation—for the sake of
human naturev-this culprit should be shewn that he conic' I
not calumniate the character of an elevated person without In.
cuffing some danger. The Learned &onset (Mr. D.) then read
long extracts from the evidence of Mr. Hownam and Count
sali, to prove that the delay of her Royal. Highness it.
was but for one day. Be next adverted to the scandaloits say
about the chamber-pot!, and observed, that if her iloyai IL*
nets and Bergami were in the habits of criminal intercourse,
the appearances spoken of on that-occasion would certainly have
been• found upori all occasions, and of course De Mont must
have observed it; and he considered cite absence of all-proof of
such an appearance, as no inconsiderable•evidence that an adur-
tercus intercourse had not taken place. The Counsel for the
Bill (the Attorney-General) hail stated, that her Royal Highness
eihibited disgraceful proofs of want of taste, as well as of morals,
by the company with which she had associated at the ILrona—
that, in fact, the Baropa" was rather a brothel' than a palace—
that the balls had been given to persons of low character,. and
so on—(d laugh);--and that the greatest licentiousness had
been carried on -there to the knowledge of her: Royal High.'
' nets, It would appear from this statement, that a poor Negro, _
who had been mentioned in the most contemptuous manner,
was the master of the revels. But it had come out in evi-
dence, not only that her Royal Highness was not witness to
such scenes of licentionaness but that no such scenes had
taken place. -It had been said by Sacchi,4bat, at first, people
of rank attended those hags, but that they were compelled to
absent themselves in a short time in consequence of those
immoral proceedings. Now, If this was 'the 'case, why had
not some of these high characters beeu)called ? No, nu.;
the censors of morals were not, io the eye pf the prosecutors, the
people of rank, but the trainof evidence with whose-lies the
public had been insulted—the Mtiocohis, the .De Monts, and
the Sacchis. And yet whatltad those persons stated after all?
that they observed nothing particular! Here then is the history
of the heinousness of the wife of the Regent of England. It was
false to say that therewas anything in the conduct of the Princess
to her domesticy that was not constantly to be seen amongst the
hrat familiel in England, the ladies of which were delighted with
the Opportunities of rendering their servants happitby occasional
famillar Intercourse.' Lieutenant Hownam and Count Vas-
sali give I. detail precisely the-same description of evidence with
respect to the character of the .mitectainments given at the
Barons, and establish, beyond- all reasonable doubt, , thatthere
was nothing in them either intproper or-indecent. Not an indi-
vidual of the female sex, was there, who had not her natural
plotector or guardian with her. " It was mere trifling to talk of
that occurrence; at affording any ground for imputation against
her Royal Highness; but for that very reasoo they bvatuelm-
portant facts in the case for the Queen' since they shevied how
the most innocent actions' of her-life were attempted to be
perverted to her prejudice. As De Moot had said, it was the
misfortune of that Meadow Lady to be ‘taanstautly beset by
spies, to be bated where she ought to be cherished, to
have every action of her life distorted and misreprelented."
Not a virtue which she powered, but was contrived to be
set in array .against her; her kindnesy . her affability, her-love
of children-70ov°. almost inseparable
.from open and generous
natures--were converted into imputations of the grossest desCrlp...
doh. 'But it was 'a fact on 'whith he reflected with proud con-
solation, that 'hi every Instance •11l which the witnesses to this
case of artifice and treachery could ,be contradicted by other
wimessereapable of speaking to the same facts, they had been
contradicted in the•most positive manner—their testimony had
been cut in pieces; It' still remained to speak of the _exhi-

;drawing aside the curtains of the caeriage, in which he affirmed
they rode together. He' animadverted on the pnblushing
coldness, with which this witness had described a scene which
must have been revolting to the nature of every one who Ifs.
celled to his fourrecital, and on that convenient forgetfulness,
le to other particulars, not to be forgotten, by which he may
prObably have saved himself from that punishment for perjury
Which he so richly deserves. • When asked if there was any
'other person in the canine at the time, he answered that he
could not recollect. What ! was it possible not to recollect
whether the sister of . the man who was in the -criminal
situation he had described, was present or not? -Could hu-
man nature believe it?- This answer slaw, said the Learned
-Counsel, is to me the most unquestionable evidence, deo the
whole story is a vile invention of the witness's men. But to go
to direct evidence on the point, the statement of SaCchi had
been contradicted in a manner that must deprive this infamous
geittfrman of all claims he may ever have posses;ed to that
character. The Learned Counsel now read, from the evidence-of
Carlo Forteethose parts which sliewedlhat Sacchi had preceded
her Royal Highness on the journey to Senegagtia, and could
not possibly have seen what he pietended to describe; next, the
'evidence of Lieutenant Hownam, which proved that the car-
riage in which her Royal Highness rode was one with spring
blinds, which could not be opened except from withirta and,
listly, those parts of the evidence of Col. Oliveira and Capt. Vas-
esti, which went to confirm, as they did most unequivocally, the
statements of Carlo Forte and Mra Hownam. This counter-
testimony went to the entire destruction of the' pmaibility of
Sacchi's having seen what he alleged. And, if this were false,
what became of theavhole of his evidence? what became of the
Whole case, or which such a witness was the chief support?
The Learned Counsel now adverted to a point which lead be-
fore escaped his notice--the reported black-balling of her Ma-
jetty; when proposed' as a member of the Cassino, at Allan. If
it was so, be would fearlessly ask the reason? Was it because
she was known to be the wife of the Prince Regent of Eng-
land?—because she was hie persecuted, calumniated, and tot-
ted wife—because she was condemned to wander over the
face of the earth, friendless and alone—because she had no
home in that country which had become her own—or w.,s it
because she saw ciliate, who had been her adv,ocates, ranged in
the ranks of her enemies, and now in a situation which he
Would not trust himself to wank ? There was anot ter cis ‘.
stance to which be bad not yet adverted—the bathing in the• Bret.
eia. It so happened, that the fact was impossible, fur the "Brescia
was either dry or a cataract. Lieutenant Hownain said it
was a stream in which no navigatiun could take place; and the
Counsel for the Bill have Italians enough acquainted with the
Brescia to contradict this. statement, if It were not true. Four
persons -are stated to hive seen this indecency of the Prin-
cess, and yet only one is called to depose to ita Another
witness had sworn, that in taking the Princess and Ilergand
to Como, he saw them kissing no less than faur times, this
was even oftener than Majocehi and Dc Mont had sworn to
have seen it in three years; but the boatman he called, who had
the best opportunity of observing the conduct of the parties,
gave a direct contradiction to the statement. These Might ..ppear
trifling ercurnstances, but they were importanta-falarhood had •
been grafted on truth, ao that profligate minds sae, nothing bet
culpability in the conduct of her " Royal Highness. When we
discover falsehood, we must look to the motives which have '
prompted it; and the evidence of the witnesses :against the
Queen, unsupported as they have been by collateral testimony, is
not entitled to the slightest credit. Sacchi has 'sworn that he as-
sumed the name of Count Milani in consequence of the Daver
riots, and yet he is proved to have gone by that name twelve
Months befOre they occurred, and v: seen no one dreamed of the
present -trial but those who were collecting the 'materials
for it.' But the most Important personage was Giuseppe
Bagel% one of the most active agents of the Milan Com- •
mission: Much bad been said of the high charactet. of the
individuals who formed that Commission. With re pact to
Mr. Cooke he never heard anything against halve end was
disposed to think favourably of him, but that disposition met
with a severe cheek, wheat be found him accepting ahis com-
mission. That he was a 'man of very considerable talents
and legal knowledge, he readily admitted—but of all the
names in Westminster Hall, 'he did 'not believe there was
one more likely for the silting 'of evidence, or the detec-
tion of false testimony. As to Colonel liroire, it could be
no offence to say that, as he was a military melt, he could hardly
be expected to give any ureful assistance. The only real and
efficient Commissioner was Mr. Powell, now the. Solicitor to
this presecution: it was he who had' been able ac get dVidence,
by the compuhory power which he possessed, 'Colonel Brown
using his influence with the Foreign Courts to Witt him.—
This was the first instance he ever heard of an Attarniy form-
ing the sole Commissioner. He ( air. Den Man) Was not
sorry that Mr, Cooke had accepted' the office, nor Was he
displeased that It Powell bad been the most active. Em-
ploying Rasta' as a courier to. this Commission, was ecotigia
to disqualify him as a witness; but when the advantage Wee
considered. which he must expaet frem being employed to ob.
tab evidence, would any one say he ought to have, been a
witness? The character of the courier indethe witness ought
to have been kept separate. Mr. Powell.possialied 'uric advan-
tages in Rastelles knowledge of the witnesras: .It was the object
or liastelli to beat op for recruits, not only tq support his own
testimony, but to ruin his Royal Misaresi-4n object his yrbole
soul seems to have been engaged art. tie had said. that he
never offered money to any witness, but that a.ssiTtion wait also
refuted. But the most important fact connoted with Rastelli Was
