It was this impression that he most feared, altliough he
felt confident that the 'Mutate decision of their Lord-
ships wouldremove them. ft% he feared that it would
be impossible completely to efface them. Ile had
lately met in a pnblication, a passage so eOlll-
- illustrative of this that he could wit avoid
quoting it fur their Lordships. It was a passage in the
Quarterly Review. The Learned Gentleman then read
the passage. Cntortnamely it was too true, and more
partwelarly with respect to the female hero. Awl
althongli he had no dimht that all the inhumes and ilia.
lioHeal charges that had been brought forwent against
her Majesty, would hr float completely disproved' yet,
long inster4 will it be before the impressions shall be et-
fared. For the very circumstance of their having existed
will always leave a staio. Ihe r.etrned Gentleman
then referred their Lordships to a part of the
Solicitor-General's speech, where he stated, " that so
mail could doubt, that on that night m'otltery bail been
committed, and that this was the yommencorient of
an adulterous interronse." To that assertion he would
return at another period. The second comet in the
indictment, for so it might be called, was the story of
the maniple hall. Here some presumptioh of guilt
was endeavoured to be raised. According to the story
that has been set up, the Prioress retorm.ol from the
bell with Ilergasni, went inns a room with him, remained'
there three quarters of au hour, changed her dress, and
all this time left her chambermaid waiting in an anti-
room. Why dm very impossibilities atteuding this story
are a sidEeieut refutation of it. Could any um: imagine,
she would station her etamberniaitfin a room to observe
her goidg in With Itergami to effect her criminal pur-
poses ? Aid how is it possible that she 'could leave the
hall fur three quarters of as hour with 4ut being observed:
The testimony of Sir Williams (tell and Ms. Craven is
COlNdltilirit in, that point. There had been an atteapt
made to charge the Princess with inslecoacy.of dress;
lug Sir. William Gell has distiovtly swot* before their
Lordships, that those trovrsers, as they were so called,
were ineeety tied, and made some slight alteration
which Gil hod endeavoured to torture into a charge
of iodating. The Attorwey-Utaeral has frequentii-
tohl es of his extrema satiety for the seeress ill'
