Disinneennre,
Because, that in a case of this nature, in which this House
appears to us, by Its Resolution to read the Bill a second time,
by its •proceedina in the Committee upon the Bill and the Re-
port, and by its Resolution to read the Bill a third•tinte, tohave
strongly manifested, that, in the judgment of a idajority'of this
House, the guilt imputed in the Preamble of the Bill had been
clearly proved, we think that considerations affecting the justice
and honour of the House, made it fit that the Bill should pass.
Because this appears to us to have been the more fit in a cue
in which so many Peers, who voted against the third reading of
the Bill, had declared their conviction that the guilt imputed
hid been proved.
Betause we also think that the House ought not, in consider-
log whether the Bill should pus after its having been read a
third time, to have been influenced by-any regard to what might
take place in an inquiry in the other House of-Parliament, as
was suggested in the course of our debates, save only that we
deem it to have been just that the party accused should have had
at opportunity of calling for the judgment of both Houses, when
this House, proceeding by a Bill of Pains and Penalties, had ex-
pressed in its Resolutions a judgment unfavourable to that party.
Because we-cannot but apprehend, that the Resolution to ad-
journ the further consideration of the Bill will lead to great niis-
apprehension as to the real opinion of the Majority of the Peers
of this House, as it is to be collected from the antecedent pro-
ceedinzs properly understood, withreference to the question upon
the guilt imputed to the party accused in the Preamble of the Bill.

DIGSENTIENT,
I3ecause it has been clearly established, by undeniable evil.
dzuce, and confirmed by the votes and declarations of a great
'4lajority of the House of Peers, that the Princess of Wales
(now Queen) did commit adultery with a foreigner, anal because
I know of no other Tribunal where this crime against the State
and against society can be punished, or the repetition of the of-
f,:uce be prevented.
ly, Because the failure of this Bill, unaccompanied by any
other Legislative or Judicial Proceeding, must encourage the
commission of crime, and leave a great stain upon the honour
or the Throne, and the morals of the present generation.
Ii ORRIS, WILLIAM.

ThrtENTIENT,
Because the guilt of her Majesty the Queen having, after the
fullest investigation ant'. consideration of the evidence adduced
for and against her Majesty, been made out and established to
the entire satisfaction of my honour and constience, and the
Bill of Pains and Penalties having, in the most solemn and de-
111)trate manner, passed through its different stages, and received
the sanction of this House to the third reading, I cannot allow
of its abandonment at this peslod of the sedulous and exemplary
attendance and labours of this Hons.:, without recording my
Protest against a tneuttre which involves a dereliction of the
nerd dust of admisistering justice b, this House, and which
*alters tee most abar.doned and licentious conduct to remain, if
not tri;nlphant, at least unpunished, to the disgrace of our coun-
try, in derogztioa of the honour and dignity of this House, and
*Web t•nads to loan( the first tribunal in the world, in the ail-
:nation of this It'atiort, of 4nrope, and of posterity.

MATCH FOR ONE HUNDRED GUINEAR.—An Her-
culean pedestrian task for the above sum was at-
tempted on Thursday, at Easton, in Hampshire by
Rawlinson, a Devonshire man, and a relation of
celebrated Old Tom, the runner. It was to run
twelve times round a circle of one mile, in Mr;
-teer's grounds (he having made the match) in one
hoar and twelve minutes, which is equal to anything
t7on record. He did the first . dime miles in sixteen
• minutes and a half, and half the distance in 35 mi-
nutes, well on his speed. He did the next three miles
in a few seconds over eighteen minutes, and won by
extraordinary game, having a quarter Or a minute
to spare.

his eyes in so dreadful a manner, that great doubts
are entertained whether he will ever recover his fight.
