THE STATESMAN.

The Coriocatioa.—That is a fact, and he thee*
the servant should be produced to prove that fact.
The Mseovis of Dowirsotae.—What was the awe
of that servant ?—Maurine Creery.
Before whom did you see him kneel ?—Befere use
Princess.
Lord LACDERDALI could not positively understood
how this evidence could be allowed to remain outlet&
Lordships' books, because any thing he swore, he
merely knew from the confession of a servant.
lord GREY said that unless his ears deceived him,'
nothing had been said that was not perfectly admissl-
ble. He saw a servant on his knees, but never stated
any thing that had occurred between him and the
servant. He entered into no detail, he was therefore
of opinion that no objection should be made to it.
Lord LAUDERDALI persevered in his fornser
opinion. •
Lord HOLLAND objected, not only in this instance bet
in every other, to have questions and answers struckei
from the minutes. The objection, if made at all, should
be made at the time.
The Marquis of BUCKINGHAM could not see how this
(parr,' between Ompteda and the witness had any con-
nection with the case before them.
Lord (' . VW( said a few words in support of the
question being put.
The Marquis of Downsaiste then asked as follows:
WAS it in consequence of any thing which this man
said to her Royal Highness, that you called Ompteda
out ?—This question was also objected to.
Lords LAVDRIDALII and OHRE spoke upon its admis-
sibility.
The LORD CHANCELLOR thought that the call* eat
of Ouspteda by the witness, had nothing to do with this
question.
The question was again put and again objected to.
The Lunn CHANCELLOR said that he Thought she
question likely to do the witness an injury, and it he
had not been understood before. he now said directly
and plainly, that the question ought not to be put.
The Noble Marquis eventually withdrew it.
Did Majncci ever mention (iiiiptecla's name to yen?
—I perfectly recollect at Home mentioning to Majoeci
that if the is met Ouipteda they were not to mo-
lest him or to offer him any in.ult. I had never any
conversation with the lower servants, and therefore Ma-
jocci could not have mentioned it to me. '
When Morris Crecy, went on his i:nees to her Royal
Highness and asked forgiveness, what did she say in
reply ?—She forgave him.

Lord Drattistorow.,--Coa you state that her Royal
Highness never took her clothes off during the whole
period she was on board the polacre?--.She never took
the clothes off except in the day-time, when she merely
shifted her dress.
You hare not positively said that Bergami was under
the tent, but that your belief was, that he was there
every night. wish to know whether sot know that if
Serval was there, he must have reclined in the same
manner on the other bed, with his clothes on ?—i never
saw him, nor did I ever see any bed-clothes on that bed.
Does Mrs. Hownam know, or is it only from report
that the Princess never took her clothes off on her rrturn
from Jaffa, when she retired to rest, and whether when
she changed her dress it was in the tent or below ?
Below in the cabin, I never saw her Royal Highness
change her dress on deck.
I apprehend you never saw her change her clothes ?
No, I did not any where.
Did von ever see that dance performed by Jiahomtt f
—I did at the Villa d'Rste. I Was in the Princess's
room and we heard a noise in the court-rani below, and
went to the window, when we saw Mabouiet dancing
before a crowd below.
Did yea think there was any gent impropriety or in-
decency in that dance:—Certainly nut.
Lord Eu.stsnonausu questioned the witness as to the
lad time he saw Captain Briggs ; which he stated
to be about a fortnight or a month since.—lie
bad heard he was to be a witness against the Queen,
and thinking it impossible he went (low is to Ports-
mouth to ask if that was the feet. Captain Briggs
declined entering into any conversation on the subject,
and only said I suspect I shall be called, I am afraid I
shall ; hut my testimony will be nothing but what is ho-
nanrahle and just. He had never seen him sine., but on
the day be gave his evidence in that House ; he only
shook hands with him then on the stairs and said how
do you do."
Did you ever see the tent closed in the day-time
Yes, I have closed it myself when I hare observed the
Queen gosug to sleep, to protect her from the sun
