It was the great hall of Rufus, the hall which had resounded with acclamations at inauguration of thirty kings; the hall where Charles had Lagos the High Court of Justice with the placid courage clear by cavalry. The peers, robed in gold and ermine, were the heralds under Garter King-at-Arms. The Judges in their of state attended to give advice on points of law. Near a hundred and seventy lords, three-fourths of the Upper ae the Upper House then was, walked in solemn order from their place of assembling to the tribunal. The junior baron present led way—George Eliot, Lord Heathfield, recently ennobled for his defense of Gibraltar against the fleats and armies of France and Spain. tong procession was closed by the Duke of Norfolk, Earl realm, by the great dignitaries and the brothers and sons of the King. Last of all came the Prince of Wales, conspicuous by his fine noble bearing. The gray old walls were hung with scarlet. leries were crowded by an audience such as has rarely excited the enulations of an orator. There were gathered together from wit and learning, the representatives of every acience and every art. ‘There were seated round the Queen the fair haired young daughters of the House of Brunswick.

There were the members of that brilliant society which quoted, criticised and exchanged repartee under the rich peacock hangings of Mrs. Montague. The sergeants made proclamation. Hastings advanced to the bar and bent hs knee, The culprit was indeed not unworthy of that great prerance. '| He had ruled an extensive and populous country, had made laws ané treatien, had sent forth armies, had set up and pulled down princes: and in his higt pface he had so borne himself that all had feared him, that most had loved him and th atred Iteelf could deny him no title to glory exoent virtue.
