Excerpt from Speeches of the Managers and Counsel in the Trial of Warren Hastings, Vol. 2 IT has been suggested as desirable to connect the several Plan of the speeches contained in the present publication by notices of the intervening proceedings on the trial, and it has been judged that such notices would be most conveniently introduced by being brought together, in a narrative form, at the commencement of each volume. In entering on the plan at the present point, it will be necessary to supply here what should properly have been prefixed to the first volume - to join with the account of the proceed ings connected with this portion of the work a view of the course of the trial from its commencement. Any indication of opinion in favour of either the prosecution or defence will be avoided, and nothing further will be attempted than to narrate the occurrences of each day's sitting of the Court, and brie¿y to refer to public incidents directly in¿uencing or growing out of the impeachment, in order that the progress Of the trial may be present to the reader's mind as he takes up each succeeding speech.
