(('oncla.ion of Mr. Denman's Reply.)

Sr, much for the statement, and now for the proof.
There were two questions : first, did these scenes
ever take place ? and next, dill they take place with
the knowledge and approbation of her Royal High-
nes.' ? Front the evidence of Sacchi, it would seem
that at tirit the Kiruna was visited by persons of rank
and respectability, but that subxeminently these
persons never mole their appearance at time

leers on this occasion were 31njoerhi, Ilemont, anti
Snead. The Learned Gentleman then remarked upon
the deficiency of the proof even by such witnesses as
these, compared with the opening of the Attorney-
General, a circumstance which clearly spewed that
their first tale which was put into the Attorney Gene-
ral's brief, varied materially from the second. 'Mr.
otinan proceeded to go through the detail of the
di-gnsting circumstances sworn to by Sacchi, and G.-
Learned Gentleman argued very ably on the strung
improbability of the truth of Sarrhi's statement. lie
would nntierta!te to say, that all whirl. had been sworn to
and which waseapahleof refutation, had been complete-
ly refitted. '1 here were parts of his evidence which did
pot admit of a refutation by direct negative proof ;
but their Lordships would know what degree of cre-
dit to give to a man, in those points, when he load
beets decidedly coatraolieteol in (others. The cirrum-
-stances which were disproved, ought out to be forgot
tea ; for they heroine material, from their very refit-
tatiun ; for they sliewed how his illustrious Client
had been beset by spies, by tap-bearers and liars.

alm! 31Ali t. It had been Stilted by the Attorney-
eneral, that this man's exhibition was indecent; 31;-
jorchi said it was not so. This was an oversight in some
one, for.Nlajoettlti it seemed had not been drilled to speak
to this circumstance. Itto the whole of these statements
'tarried the marks of falsehood within themselves.—
'rite Learned Gentleman proceeded to detail the evi-
dence given by Saceiti as to the manner of his attend-
mice upon her Royal highness, in the course of the
journey from Rome to Senegaglia. Every morning
he went up to the carriage window to ask what was
wanted. When he is asked who was in the. carriage
Resides Ilergami and the Princess, he takes refuge in
that want of memory %%Mich he knows to be his only
safe-guard against that punishment for perjury, which
he so justly merits. Ile (Ale. I).) asked was it possible
for any Itninatt creature under such ciremnstateces not
to know whether the sister of the party charged was by his
lisle at the time he was so criminally employed. that
answer alone was sufficient to satisfy him that the whole
tale teas 'fabrication. But without trusting to this, as
is complete refutation, he would go to the direct contra-
diction of the fart by evidence; anti their Lordships
would see. that it was to demonstration clear, that if
ever this infernal, individual was entitled to credit he
had now, for evermore, forfeited that title. lie referred
their Lordships to rage GIL where they would final the
evidence of Carlo Fort', the witness who had attended
on the Journey from Rome to Senegaglia, as Courier
to her Royal. Higher'''. being himself ton horseback
during the wholeionrney. So far, therefote, from this,
Sacelsi having Ism! 1.1% opportunity of (Iran log the window
' curtains of theearriagein whiclater Royal Highness tra-
velled hedid eat even attend on thatorcasi on. This witness
Porti was strictly cross-examined as to all the evidence

he gave in page 631; and, in the course of that cross-
examination, nothing was elicited which could in any
way tend to discredit what he had before stated; but he
stated new circumstances which 'hewed that he could
not he mistaken on the subject. Ile then 'hewed that
Sarehi did not go forward with dispatches, because he
had become chafed with riding, and could not continue
on horseback any farther ; and that lie, the witness, took
his post, in which he acquitted himself so much to the
satisfaction of her Royal I lighness that he was continued
in her service. It was he, therefore, dearly, who per-
formett the office of courier to her Royal Highness on
that joarney from Rom. to Seneoaglia. This testimony,
imps ant as it was, was not attempted to he met by any
coot.'"y action on the other side. The witness had been
•riabt to an active cross-examination, but that was

id if Saatchi rode as courier on that journey.
And he (Mr. D.) most strongly contended that all the
evidence whirls Marclii gave, both from the nature of it,
and in consideration of the person it came from, should
have been corroborated from every direct source it was
possible to get evidence from. Now with respect to the
evidence of Carlo Forti, let them look at what Captain
Dm% moo said in rorroboration. In page 701, lie says,
that iiistrail of the carriage in which her Royal High-
ness travelled, it was not of the description represented
by Saerhi, with curtains to the windows which coold be
opened from the outside The carriage was an English
lantlaillet, 'patine spring blinds to the windows, which
could only he opened by a person in the inside. And lie
at the same time mentioned a variety of circumstanres
which chew that his memory is folly competent to a per-
fect deseription of the case. Ile must Isere state, that
as to there heino any dnnht short time, he had hut to
state, that their was only one jonrney from Rome to
Sece.raglia performed ivy her Royal Highness. The
Letrotol Counsel went on to examine the different
witnesses who had given their evidence in corro-
boration of Carlo Forti ; and detailed the evidence
• given by each to that effect. He referred particularly
to the testimony of Colonel Olivieri and Count Vas-
. sail. It was deserving of particular remark that the
store of Maerhi hail not been confirmed by a single
• witness—not even by Demont ; and it had not even
been attempted to bring any contradiction to the wit-
moors who had so completely refuted it. Was it pos-
-1 Bible that such a story could be credited, when tits
very description of it was calculated to put every bo-
