"A la Villa d'Este, Ce 17 d'Octobre, 1816." "Caroline Princesse de Galles.". Lord-Chancellor.-Let an accurate copy of it be taken. Earl of Lauderdale. You have stated that you saw the princess and Pergami under the tent, and that after you saw them in that situation, Scavini received orders to let down the tent; did that happen when the princess was leaning on the bed on which Pergami was lying, and when you ordered your mate to withdraw? Yes, but this circum. stance has happened more than once; it did not happen that once only. Did Scavini continue to walk in that part of the ship after the curtains of the tent were let down? Then he did not remain in the place where he was, but he went a little more to the stern, a little more to the bowsprit, or he went down into his own room. The following question was put by their lordships, at the request of Mr. Williams: Were you in the habit of going down to the dining-room every night, or every evening? No; that was not my place, or my business. The witness then withdrew. Mr. Brougham said he had an humble application to make to their lordships, in consequence of a communication which he had that moment received. He was anxious to ask one question of Theodore Majocchi without further delay, We are enabled to present the public with one of the letters sent up from Gloucester, and first intimating that Majocchi was known there. It is addressed to a respectable person in London, and by him transmitted to Alderman Wood, and thence to the Queen's Counsel:Gloucester, August 23. I know you to be a well-wisher of the Queen. The first witness called against her I have every reason to believe is a man who livedwith Mr. Adam Hyatt, who brought him over from Italy. He always spoke in the highest terms of her Majesty, and said he had been offered a considerable sum of money, and a place for life, if he would appear against her. I can find very creditable people in Gloucester to whom he told this. I request you will make known these circumstances to Alderman Wood: and some person may then be sent from London to make the necessary inquiries here. JOHN MARSH To Mr. John Watts, 21, Castle-street, Oxford-street. [Two other letters have been received in corroboration of the above statement.] and, therefore, he hoped their lordships would order him to be called in. He had only one question to put to him, which might by possibility lead to one or two more. (Cries of "state the question.") If their lordships would allow him to examine this witness, he should have no objection to mentio the questions he proposed to put: and the first question he wished to put was, whether the witness had been at Bristol during the last season, in the course of the last twelve or fourteen months? The Earl of Liverpool wished, in such a case, that the house should be chiefly governed by the opinion of the learned lord on the woolsack, and that of the learned gentlemen at the bar; but he would suggest, whether, if this course was acceded to, which was breaking in upon established rules, counsel ought not, in the first instance, to state not only the particular question, but the object of the examination. The Lord-Chancellor repeated what he had said on a former occasion, that on an application by counsel for the farther cross-examination of a witness, their lordships would be governed by a sense of justice, and by a regard to the grounds on which the application was made. But if a witness was to be cross-examined again, he could not say whether their lordships would allow the cross-examination to be taken piece meal or not. Mr. Brougham admitted that his application was out of the ordinary course of regular proceeding; but he pledged himself that he would never ask that witness another question after to-day, until he came to open the case. At present he should satisfy himself with asking these two or three questions. The Lord-Chancellor thought their lordships should allow the questions to be put to the witness at present. Theodore Majocchi was then ordered to be called in, and ǎ short pause ensued. The Lord-Chancellor observed, that it would be necessary that the learned counsel should state his questions to him in the first instance, and that they should be put by him to the witness. They might indeed, as far as respected the regular course of their proceedings, be stated to any peer, and on these conditions the witness might be again examined. Theodore Majocchi was then brought to the bar, and applied through the interpreter to be permitted as a favour to assure their lordships that he was ready to lay down his life in that place, if his former testimony was not correct. Mr. Brougham.-Were you or not at Bristol in the last year, or in thể course of this year? I do not know this Bristol. Were you at Gloucester? Gloucester I knew very well. Were you in the service of a gentleman of the name of Hyatt? Yes. Did you ever declare to any person that the princess of Wales was a most excellent woman? Yes, that the princess was a good woman. Did you ever declare that the conduct of the Princess of Wales was highly becoming? Of her conduct I always said that she was a good woman, but she was surrounded by bad people. Did you ever say that she was a prudent person, and that you never had observed any thing improper in her conduct? ber at all whetlier I did say so. I do not remem Did you ever say that the Princess of Wales always behaved herself with propriety?

Do you know a person of the name of William Hughes ? know him, but I do not remember this name. Do you know a person who was a clerk to Messrs. Turner, bankers at Gloucester?

To whom did you make this complaint of Pergami? Precisely I do not remember; but I remember that Seignor Hyatt asked me why I had left the service of the princess, and then I answered him so; ad then I remember to have added, after my return from the long voyagé Bartolomi Pergami wished to lower my wages. Did you ever say the same thing, respecting Pergami and your wages, to any ody besides Mr. Hyatt? I do not remember that I did. Do you remember Mrs. Adams, Mrs. Hyatt's mother? Yes, I re Do you remember Mrs. Hughes, Mrs. Adams's housekeeper? member that there was a woman who did all the business in the house, if this was her name |
