LETTER FROM LIEUTENANT PRESCOTT TO LORD
COCHRANE.
King's Beach, Nov. St
lman,—Having been requested by your Lordship to
commit to writing the information which I communicated to
you some mouths ago, I have no hesitation in complying with
yopr request.
The substance of the account which I received from the
sons whose names I mentioned to you, and who may be carted
upon if required, is, that they were of the party at a dinner,
which win ter/nest " The Stock Lachance Dinner," provided by
order of Mr. Harrison, at Davey's Coffee-house in the Bench,se
the day before the Trial; at which dinnerthe Honourable Alex-
ander Murray was also of the party, which consisted of seven or
'eigisepetyons ; that after• they bad dined, nod the bottle had
gene briskly mond, Harrison said to Mr. Murray (who was
i then, and still is, a prisoner for deal, that he would get his
Afars settled ; and as he should receive a large slim from the
Exchange for the conviction of Lord rochrmie, if ne (Murray)
wanted 501. he should have t to-morrow ; proposing at the
same time, ' Success to the Stock Exchange," is bich was
drunk in claret with loud cheering ; that this took place in the
. public coffee-room, before many pet sons both in the room and
look* in at the windows, the dinner attraditig considerable
attention from its style, which was unusual in the Bench; that
Mr. Harrison, in answer to a remark from one of the bye-stamis
in, that the dinner would cost a round slim, said, it did not
signify if it cost sdl. as the Stock Exchange would pay for it;
fiat wh n the taajority of the vans had drunk as much wine as
they could, or were willing to drink, Mr. Harrison ordered se-
veral full bottles to he placed on the table ; and the task of
finishing the wine which ren ained devolving at length on the
Honourable Alexander Murray, and he being jumble to ac-
tonsplish it by himself, he west into the lobby of the prison,
and proctored two of the turnkeys to assist him.
The further account of one of the persons above alluded to
(who usually messed with Mr. Moray) is, that fur some time
previous to the Trial, Harrison was daily with Mr. Murray,
dining and drinking with hi • ; and that he was present when
Harrison visited Mr. Murray, accompanied by toe Solicitors.
Messrs. H. and IL ; on which occasion Harrison said to
Mr. Murray, " Here are the Gesittemen who will accisoialish
your wishes ;" and one of these Gentlemen replied, " Ye.. Mr.
hurray, after this Trial or Lord Cochrane has past, we will
then attend to our liberatiou* ;" that be heard Mr. Harrison
declare in the lobby, as did many other pens that lat should
receive a MO of money if he could procuptevidence which
would consist Lord Cochrane; intimating at the same time,
that he was induced In offer his seniees to the Stock Exchange,
in procuring evidence against hint, by his personal antipathy -to
the whole family of the Cochrane, which be said would never
subside while he breathed ; that, subsequent to the Trial, he
has repeatedly heard Mr. Murray express himself sorry for hav-
ing appeared in Conn against Lord Cochrane, and acknow-
ledge that he had been the dope of Harrison, inpersuadtughim
that his Solicitors would undertake the arrangement of his af-
fairs and effect his liberation, provided he would appear as as
evidence against Lord Cochrane at the Trialt.
Shortly before the Trial, I addn-ed two letters to your Lord-
ship on the subject of Harrison's visiting and tampering with
Mr. Murray. who a +is expected to appear as an evidence against
you ; but yowl Lordship did Ohl answer those letters, nor at.
tend at that time to or communications. The fact, however,
was notorious in the Beach. Of lay knowledge I have only to
• add, that on the day of the Stock Exchange dinner (as it wits
called). my attention was uatrac.ed by the noise of the enters
tainmer t, and the number of people collected ; and I went into
toe coffee-room. and saw the party at the table, as did many
other persons; and towards the close of the evening l saw Mr.
Murray return from the lobby into the coffee-house, account-
paoied It, one of he turnkeys. It was well known that Harris..
was in a state of extreme indigence previous to the Trial t bet
shor Iv afterwards, L was present when he took a considerable
number of mink-notes out of his pocket, and saw him places
501. note in the h:euds of a gentleman, to remain till an account
with .Jr Leas was investigated. • I cave also beard Har-
rison declare, in tee presence of other persons, that he would
ruin the whole Cochrane family.
I am, year Lordship's most obedient servant,
THOMAS PRESCOTT.
Can the, be a plainer tale than is unfolded by this
Letter; talk about conspiracies! has " the Honour-
able" ALEXANDER MURRAY, attempted to 111111,1 H
Lieut. Passoorr's charges? Ras be denied them?
They are brought forward in every " tangible shape,"
and if they are passed over its silence and uncon-
tradicted the public will draw their own conclusions.
Lott! Cocrinarre (page 60) alludes to the case of
64 rettclEvar. against MITYORD," this case, which is
an ever memotable one, ought not to he forgotten;
but I suppose the Reverend Editor of the Morning
Herald has a sort of fellow feeling for his brother
Editor of '• the News ;" and, therefore, he care-
fully avoids giving him a place in his critique. It is
my intention, Sit, to trouble you very shortly with
a few remarks on this case; no person was ever
worse used than Lady I'ERCEVAL, and had it not
been to a certain degree a political affair, very
different indeed might have been the result, and the
worthy Christian-like FAlttor of that most valuable
production, the Nests, would very probably have
been an occupier of that dreary abode, where you,
Sir, are now rapidly advancing on the fifth year of
your incarceration ! but more of this: hereafter.
Lord COCHRANE (page 121) very, fairly designates
Mr. G (MEET as isms " furious assaitunt."—T:as
Gentleman is labouring very hard in his vocation,
and. no doubt, looks forward to receive, from a
grateful Administration, under the protection of a
fostering Judge, those rewards, which his anxious
assiduities so well deserve. I see that in a late most
extraordinary trial for bigamy, he was the "furious
assailant" of the Gentleman, who was convicted of
that offence, and is sentenced by the Recorder of
London to seven years transportation, for having, by
Mr. GURNEY'S own statement, suffered an unor-
dained. Methodist Parson to read over a marriage
ceremony, 20 years ago, when he was a boy, in
Ireland, where he was a stranger, without bans,
licence, or witnesses, in a back-room of the woman's
house, and no evidence produced to prove even
this, but the very Methodist Parson who performed
the ceremony !
Report says, that the politics of this Gentleman
were in his way, and that he has been guilty of the
grievous sin of thinking on that subject for himself ;
and the sentence which followed his conviction, rev
dered this 130 very improbable conclusion. However,
1 this unfortunate Gentleman may console himself with
; the reflectioit, that " heavy sentences are no proofs
tof guilt ;" and I trust he will find means to procure
redress, if such is within the power of the law.
I very much regret that Lord COCtIRANE has not
printed his " Letter to his Judge," in a form less
expensive. It would have better served the cause of
truth, inasmuch as it would have been more easy of
purchase to the multitude : unquestionably, as in
every case of law, it contains much "dry and verbose
examination" of minute points. But these minute
points are the very life and soul of Lord COCHRANE'S

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STATESMAN.
SIR,-1I is unnecessary to compliment you on the
genuine ptinciples of civil and religious liberty, by
which your columns are distinguished from the vile
hireling Journals of the present day. Your inde-
pendence is well known, and the sufferings it has
brought upon you. I cannot, however, better
commence the following few remarks on an article
which lately eppi'ared in the Morning Herald, than
by doing you that justice which your exertions in the
cause of the Friends of Freedom so fairly and un-
equivocally demand.
The Reverend Sir Ilcsrnv BATE DUDLEY,
Baronet, is well known its the school of corruption,
and the manner in which his (the above-named)
Journal is &inducted, does honour to his consist.
ency ; it has been unimpeachable. No wonder,
therefore, that Lord Cocuit•Ne should be a fair sub-
ject for the attacks of the Reverend Editor. I
imagine that most of your Readers have heard of,
and many have seen, • letter which that Nobleman
has lately addressed to Lord ELLENHOROUGH. This
Letter, although certainly av temperate in its cow.
position as might have been expected, smarting as
Cocuaasa is under a most severe punishment,
is visited with a sort of critical review, in which the
Reverend Baronet totally forgets that courtly
language which one naturally expects ID-till iret
Journal professedly calculated for the„rneridian of
St. James's. It commences by the following liberal
i•drofinttion—" A Letter from this Delinquent to
his Judge," and calculates on its being the produc-
tion of " some Lawyer." The Morning Herald is
so unused to the truth,ithat it cannot believe in its
xiitence elsewhere. W. by sltoutd it be the pro.
diction of " some Lawyer ?" " Because, says the
Rector of Bradwell, " it abounds in dry and verbose
examination of the evidence ;" and how otherwise
is Lord COCHRANE to argue in support of his in-
nocence, but by "drg and verbose" examinations of
that evidence on which he has been found guilty, and
has been so severely punished, and which, in its
very nature, is dry and verbose ? It is natural that
he should endeavour to detect falsehood and contra-
diction (if such exist) in the depositions of the wit
-
yeasts against him. He thinks be has found It,
and endeavours to point it out to 44 his Judge ;"
is there any thing extraordinary in this ?—The
Morning Herald proceeds to the passage iu which
Lord Coctin.isc speaks of the perfect possibility
which existed of his causing Mr. DE BERENGER to
be received on board the Tonnant, where he could
have been effectually concealed from all enquiry.—
And does the Reverend Divine require to be told,
that the power of a Captain of a man of war is
fully as absolute as he himself would wish to see any
Sovereign on earth !—Had Lord COCHRANE chosen
to have sent DE BERENGER on board the Tonnant in
any capacity whatever, nothing could possibly have
&tech d him, or (wild have caused his discovery.--
I could argue from this very circumstance moat
forcibly, and, I treat, triumphantly, on Lord '
Coati:Axes iunocence; bet as my object is to ex-
pose Sir BENET DUDLEY BATE'S ungenerous and
uncbristionlike attack,aud not to defend Lord Com-
Ram who is loreecellPnt hands, those of his con.
atintents, the indepentietit Electors of Westminster,
I sl:all proceed with the Rev. Editor on his critique.
There cannot be two opinions on the .abject
of Mr. Grilses's conduct in accepting a brief
against Lord Cocuttase ; and, indeed, being placed
in the veil foveae( the battle against hint, after having
been consulted by Lord COCHRANE in his defence;
and of course having been made master of his entire
case. and of all the points depeudant on it. This Mr.
Gf;f:NEY, however, will not be very much obliged
with the Reverend Editor's mistake in confounding
him with the Mr. RICIIARD GURNEY, jun. a prisoner
in the King's Bench, whose Letter to Lord COCH•
DANE, on the subject of " the Hon. ALEXANDER
MURRA evidence, the Holy Baronet has given at
full length. It would be too great. an intrusion on
your valuable columns, Sir, to wish you to re-pub.
Hilt it, or I should be very much disposed so to do,
for it is a very curious document. It appears that
This Mr. RICHARD Gunsixv. had been employed in
some way or other, to collect evidence against Lord
COCHIUNE, and that " the Honourable" ALEX-
Aenxn 111valAY had communicated to him (Mr.
GIIsNET) that he was to be examined al a witness
for the preseention, to prove that DE thaeveca had
stated to him.(3le. MuIiRAY) that Mr. C. JOHNSTONE
and De &um:est had a plan in content, lation which
would put a rc,.sideraule sum into their pockets ; but
that LordCoeun4a arras not either named or alluded
to in the convercation. The Leiter of Mr. RICHARD
GURNET state- thh, toost explicitly and positively.—
On carefully perusing it, very little doubt can remain
on the mine of any unprejudiced manes to the nature
of the evidence of-this " Honourable" Mr. ALtx.
IkIUttRAY. What is the sum of it? A few days before
the trial Mr. Muttaur communicated to Mr. GU/I.
NEE. that he haul heard that Mr. COCHRANE JOHN.
STONE and Mr. OE BERENGea had it in cointempla.
tiun to gain a sum of money in a certain way. Mr.
CURNEY asks, 44 but was Lord COCHRANE', house
mentioned ?" " Oh ! no !" says Mr. Nlvauvy,
• nothing was said about Lord CocruAme—lheu
Cl)9 M r:GUR N Er, th:S cannot apply to him. But
the ,:ext morning tlr. MURnAY comes to M Gua-
m,/ and tells him that he was wroth: !!!—that
Lord Cocnna NE's name was mentioned!!—that be
now rccollects it well, although the evening before
lie was quite sure that not a syllable about Lord
COCHR INE had ever been uttered. Let this speak
for i!self. and let the generous advice of Mr. GURNEY
to Mr. MURRAY be properly understood: he says
lie dissuaded him from giving any evidence at all in
the affair : and why ? surely it will not be supposed
that it was to serve Lord COCHRANE that he did not
wish to bring Mr. Munnay forward. Why then, it
only remains that he considered him to be an evi-
dence, who would, to use his own words, be " so
contradictory" that he was not precisely the safest
man in the world to trust in so delicate an affair.
the declaration of Mr. It. GURNEY bear any
other construction ? If .so, I shall be delighted to
see a fresh article in the Rev. Baronet's Court Ga-
zette to that effect.
Iu this critical review of Lord Cocitekee's Letter,
every thing of importance is carefully passed over.
