the Livery and Common Council the

notes, as did feveral in the galleries, which
were exceeding full, among whom were
the Rev. Mr.. Horne, and MIR. Wilkes.
After the Council had ended, the court fpoke
with great precifion and clearnels on the Tub
jet, and found that no court of juftice had
any iuriaicion over the Houfe of Commons,
who, in the prefcnt cafe, were only aching
with relpeef to their own members, thing
peculiar to every fociety, and ihewing a
power which was vefed in them by the very
Fundamentals of the conltitution ; that his
Lordhip's deed was not only contempt Of
the HouGe of Commons, but even of the CT
tizens of London themfelves, who are viz
tually part of that honorable houle by their
representatives on which account the court
found themfelves incapable TO relieve his
Lordhip, 70 that he was remanded back to
the Tower.
His Lordfhip was dreiled in blue, had on
a queue peruke, and wore the golden chain,
the only badge of his dignity.
