From the Baltimore Chronicle, of May 81.
On the Goth April the Printer of the LoSpos Tnrs
brought to the bar of the House of Lords to an
swer for scurrllous attack the Earl of LIMERICK
He apologized, and, usual reprmanded and dis
charged. The affair caused discussion in which
Lord BRoUoHAM and Lord LONDONDERRY were chief
speakers; and may give brief extract from the re-
port
The Marquis of LoNDoNpERRr-My Lords when the
resolution of the House is that this individual or the
edtor OF the paper has been guilty of scandaous
bell appears to that osfnement for short period
and reprinand but small punishment the offence
am not the individual strong measure of pun
shnen but think it should be stated distinctly, that
we are disposed on the present occasion to allow the
individual to escape with small mark of our dispeas-
ure; Still if such practices be continued and if the pr
vileges and the dignity of the house be attacked in flu
ture, that will not be satisfied with the iniicton of
light punishment, but will take to bring for
ward the editor and individuals really guilty; for
believe that the person who appeared If he b,
the real author of the libel. NV lords when sau the
noble and learned lord the woolsack who thought
should have been defender of your privileges rather
~ supporter OF Inelr iHPu8ners-When saw him last
night placing himself between tho house and such an
offender for the purpose of shielding the latter real
y was almost disposed to believe that the noble and
learned lord was acting counsel for defendant in
this proceeding
The LORD CHAHcELLoR.-My lords rise to order.
at the same time must say that, personally have
no objections to the noble lords course so little do
dread its consequences. If were the noble lords
friend, should dread the consequences to himself he is
perfectly ct liberty, SO far as concerned to go on
and mako what exposition may please him to make of
himself to lordshipsI not rush for what
the noble lord say he may go with his sarcasms
nsinuations, charges, he pleases; but would ra
Their have the noble lords charges than his nsnuations
never insinuations; always bring direct charges;
would rather have the noble lords open hostility than
his covert enmity. am he incapable of persist
ing IN nsnuationsthe noble lord has much honour
and high mndedncss for that therefore, as the noble
lord has limited something nothing put myself on
my defence before your ordships, and call upon the
noble lord TO charge mo with something.
lhe Marquis of BoNDoNDERRY.-I beg the noble and
learned lord to believe that has higher respect
o- his great and spendd talents; but with all his logic
and talents and oratory, the noble and learned lord
snail not put me down, prevent from dischargng
what conceive to be my duty. The noble and learned
ords great abilities and requirements may often enable
