pay you shall make choice." He should also prove, that after thee goods were sent home, Coidnel Wardle was continually at the house at Westbourne-place, " oftener, indeed; than he could recolbct," for he was there so much that sometimes he. forgot whethtr he had been there the day be/'ore or not. Yet after all this, he riiiw came into Court to deny that he was responsible to the tradesentn who had sent is this furniture on his credit. It WAS astoukaitig how he could forget this undertaking, although a frail mentor% might perchance forget a thing which had hap pened the dao bePre. But if he really remembered any thing of the transaction, he was at a loss to know host Colonel Wardle 'meant to defend hiM-elf front the payment.. Surely he did not mean-to sav that Mrs.• Clarke was not a credible witness, espe cially when she was conhrtried by other", but if he denied her testitnony t here was Major Dodd, who would confirm the plain tiffs case. And this he would do, whether the defendant called him or not. If he were called, he must corroborate Mrs. Clarke's testimony, and if he tere not called, hit verb absence tyauld do the same thing. He must also state to the Jury, that after itt. plaintiff had furnished some of the articles, he w isbed to :ouch a little ready money. Mr. Wrlght was certainly a ter* good tradesman for having secured a good paymaster.. His next object was to render him a speedy one. and therefore be begged a little money in advance. The money was men tioned to the Colonel. His reply was, " Oh, money ! money ! won't a bill do as wells?" " Yes, a bill at a short date." "Ah," said he, " but just now, it won't be quite so well to have my name appear in a bill for Mrs. Clarke's affitirs !" The Attorney-Ge neral begged the Jury to recollect, this time was when a certain inquiry was going on in the House of Commons. However, said Mr. Wardle, I will contrive and manag e to get you a bill, which, in fact he did, and if his learned Heads on the other side had any appetite to go into the transaction, they should have full evidence how the affair was managed. These were the circumstance' which he had to produce in evidence, and from them he had no doubt hut the Jury would justly infer that the Colonel tnust pay the debt for which he had made himself responsible, and no doubt when he heard that such was the opi- COD of the Jury, he would do it with great satisfaction. Mary Anne Clarke, examined by Mr. Garrow, deposed as follows : In the Autumn of 1808, I took a house in Wesibourn-place. I had shortly before become acquainted with Colonel Wardle. At that time 1 was indebted to Wright in the amount of 5 or 6001. and I had no means of paying for the furniture myself, for I then had not a single guinea; but I told Wright " I. had a friend in view, who would furnish the house for me." 1 'cer tainly meant to allude to Cot. Wardle. 1 was to give Col. Wardle every assistance and information in my power respecting the in quiry he was about to institute, and in return, he was to furnish my house. Among other things I communicated to Col. Wardle the conversation I had had with Wright about payment ; he said he should consult a friend, and afterwards he told me he approved of what had been doue. Col ;Wardle knew that I then owed Wright money, for he advised Wright to bring an action against the person whom he supposed liable to pay it, and tittered him self to pay the costs of the action;, but Wright was afraid, as a tradesman, of doing it. Colonel Wardle accompanied me to Wright's : Wright had met with an accident and was in bed ; but we saw Daniel Wright his brother. said, this is the gentleman who is to furnish my house; he was silent and did not reply. Q. Colonel Wardle made no reply when you said he was to furnish the house ? A. No, why should he; be went on purpose to give his credit. M rs. Clarke then continued :— Ai rs. Wright took me aside, and when l returned. I found Daniel Wright and Wardle talking about a side-board, which Colonel Wardle observed was a hand . : :ionic one, and was to he sent in to me. There were also several other things which they had settled were to be sent in. After this, Colonel Wardle accompanied me to Wright's several times in a hackney coach, and once or twice went in with me. Once in particular, be and Major Dodd accompanied me. They did not approve of the pattern of the carpet which had been seat in for the drawing-room. I chose a blue and white, Colonel Wardle cbose a scarlet and bronze. At last as I could not bring him to my taste, I observed, in the presence of Wright, Well, as you are to pay, VII take what you please. Major Dodd was by, and observed the pattern was Turkish, and would therefore suit me; fnr that reason 1 said I did nut like it. Q. You do not like any thing Turkish ? A. ;\.at in the pattern JULY D. of a carpet. There were several. things ordered on that oc casion by me and Mr. Wardle, in the presence of Major Dodd, and the house was furnished during the three months of December, January, and February. Colonel Wardle was con tinually with me daily ; he was ever comiog without any , invi ; he run over the house, from the kitchen to the garret. One day, in particular, I recollect a large mirror coming home; he was in a great passion, so Much so, that the man had nearly dropped it. The Colonel said, as there was a large lustre in the room, the mirror was unnecessary. Wriest begged that he might leave the mirror, and perhaps the Colonel in n day or two would change his mind. Upon this occasion he observed that Wright would not he so ready to send things in. if he did not know that he was to be his paymaster; The mirror was af terwards sent back; I thought it %b as unnecessary. Another day he objected to an elegant writ ing,desk, he found mach fault with it, observed there was already two or three about the house, at last he said it was ill-made, I said no, it was not ill made, and I would pay for it myself, rather than return it. Q. Was it sent back ? A. No ; he was afterwards ashamed of himself, and it re, mained. Some short time after this, Wright expressed a wish for some money. I mentioned it to Colonel Wardle. He steid he had not any ready, but he mould consult a friend. He told me afterwards he hnd sent a friend, a Colonel Glennv, to Wright, and they had settled for a bill. A bill was given —it was given through a Mr. I ilingworth, a wine -merchant, in Pall-Mall. He observed it would he improper at that time that his name should appear to any bill connected with my af fairs; he explained his meaning, as being relative to the charges he was about to bring against the Duke of York. The bill was given on the2d of January, and the charges made in the • • Howe of Commons a week or two afterwards. The bill trans action was to prevent s uspicion in the world. Mingo orth took a bill of me, though I told him it was not worth a farthing. Being cross-examined by Mr. Serjeant Best, she said she be came acquainted with Mr. Wardle the last Autumn. It was in consequence of a letter she received from the Exchequer Coffee house from one M'Cullam, Colonel IVardle introduced himself.— She was rather fearful of doing what Wardle wished her to do on the first interview, as he was so little known, and had.been but a short time in Parliament. He catne about one o'clock, and staid until her dinner hour (six). During the whole of which time, as she afterwards understood, Major Dodi ivas w alk ing in the street. Colonel Wardle afterwards introduced Major Dodd, whose name she knew before. It was about the end of Novem ber. She went out of town for three or four days with Colonel ‘Nrardle, Major Dodd,And Mr. Glenny, whom she understood to he an Officer of Logineers. They s isited the Martell() Towert on the coast. She was at that time in distressed circumstances, and before she could set out, she got 501. of Wardle to pay her butcher and other trilling hills. At that time she had several friends about her, .rind Colonel WardlL. was afraid they con!d . persuade her not to give the evidence he wanted, and therefore he took her out of the way. She had made many applications to him for mooey, and he always complained of wanting money himself; hut he was obliged to find it for her, and let het have stuns continually, which Me called tending to her. • Q. Were they to be repaid ? A. No ; I never understood or intended them to he repaid.— She had lately called for a small rum of money ; the Colonel said, as it was settled in their negotiation what she was to have, he %viol(' send her a small sum, and the same day he sent her a draft upon a banker (Marsh, Sibbald, and Co.), drawn by one Scott, an army clothier, who had assisted in the inquiry. She explained, by their ne7,ociation it was agreed what she Should nave, that in case it was asked her by the House of Com mons, whether she did mot give her evidence under the expec tation of future reward, she might say no. The Serjeant asked her, whether she had not quarrelled with Mr. Wardle. She said she had not, but Mr. Wardle had not visited her fora month, why, she did not know ; but Mr. Cur held, Mr. Wardle's attorney, had entne to her on Saturday with a subpoena ; he told her, that Wishing to treat her with respect, ha had brought the subpoena himself, instead of sending a clerk. with it. That Colonel Wardle waa a man of honour, and he had brought him in for Oakhamptun—that he wished to refer the case to arbitratiou, and ifshe appeared in Court Serjeant Best *soul(' cut her up by a severe cross-examination, and Mr. Wardle would give it out she was bribed by Ministers to give evidence against hint. Daniel Wright, the brother of the Plaintiff, was next called. De stated, that no goods were sent into Airs. -Clarke's h•use NATIONAL REGigtEit.
