CoNS{SroRY COURT, DOCTORS COMMoSS-Iunc g.
LORD AND LADY ERSkLNE
AS soon us the Court met this morning,
Lord Esskine in pursuance of the public mott
iicaton, which he gave in his letter to the
newspapers some days ago, appeared in court,
Scott the presiding Judge.
As sooa as the Proctor had read the names
OF the distinguished parties in the suit,
DR.. SchWabey rose and said, that he was
counsel in this suit for Lord Erskine, and he
was instructed To inform the Court, that the
noble lord being, since the institution of these
proceedings, perfectly satisfied of the nno-
cence OF Lady Ershne, had determined, in
justice TO her hadyship, and to his own feel
ings, to withdraw his suit for DIVORCE
Certain proceedings were now pending bc-
tween the parties, which the learned Doctor
siid, he hoped would terminate the matter at
Issue, by deed OF separation which was then
drawn up The Court was aware that Lady
Erskine had also applied for alimony and
separation, and her suit was still penoiag.-
Lord Ersllinc was, however, anxious to state,
that he meant altogether TO withdraw his an
Ijication, even if her I.adyship were advised
I'D continue ier suit against his Lor,lship,
should the adjustment now going on out of
Court, net terminate in deed of separation
Between the parties SO that notwithstanding
this abandonment of his I.Urdship's suit, Lady
Erskinc might, if So advised by her counsel
still pursue her application 10 The Court, if the
Proceedings now carrying on between the
PARTIES did not end in deed of separation
J'N therefore prayed, that the assignation
granted by the Court should he allowed to
stand over until the next court day.
DIR. Adams said. that as counsel for Lady
Eskine, he could of course have no objection
10 the application made on tire part OF Lord
Erskine, that the assguation dccreed by the
Court should stand over until future day.
Upon the other matters referred to by Dir.
aciwabey, he DR.. Adams should perhaps
better consult his duty by saying nothing up
nn the present occasion.
SIR w. Scott theu ordered, that the assig-
nation should stand over Ill! the next court
day.
Lord Eskinc then rose, and, with violent
emotion, observed, that he attended this
lnorning in Court, for the purpose oi dcclar-
ing his concurrence in what had fallen from
-h's Counsel. iie was the more anxious to do
81, and he made the declaration loudly and
openly, because there Was 10 person in this
land, in whose good opinioa he was more
anxious 10 STAND wei, than in that of the
Learned Person who presided in that Court
The Noble Lord then bowed to the Court
and. resumed his seat.
Sir VIM. Scott said that as the matter now
stood, hc trusted the Learned Counsel who
advised Lady Erskine, would concur as far as
they could, according to their sense Of the
justice of the case, in recommending such n
course as would spare the Court the painful
necessity Of deciding upon this case. He Sir
VIM Scott had an ancient regard and friend
ship for Lord Erskine, and must always feel
: deep interest III whatever concerned Lord
Erskine, or the peace of his family.
The Court was crowded to excess, and La
dy Erskine was present, accompanied bya
female friend.
LoHpoN, (TrareNer.j June 8.-We have
received the following letter from Madrid,
which contains All interesting notice Of the
present important question which is at present
acsitated there, viz the Emancipation OF Amc-
fica, Ofwhich there has been very little notice
IN the Spanish and French Papers -
(" Madrid, May Oh.
The affair which now absorbs the atten-
ton ofthc public is the project ofthe emanci-
patton OF America, of which | spoke 10 you in

All three, at first manifested great repugnancc
10 a separation, but they finally yielded to the
representations made them as to the national
advantages of the measure. But other diff
Culties present themselves, which do not pro-
rIisC so easy solution. The Deputies Of the
Antilles, and still more particularly those of
tjlc Isle of Cuba, have declared that they
would never consent TO be dependent on the
Continents of America, and that they would,
without delay, proclaim their independence as
soon as any measure should be taken which
might loosen the bonds which connect these
Continents with the Mother Country. The
Cortes have appointed Committee to exam
inc the proiet, composed of American aud
Spanish Deputies. Ii has only yet had one
Sitting, which has been extremely stormy
IL IS impossible to foresCe what will be the
result Of so important and SO complicated AN
affair.
