§ Sir H. Douglassaid, that he wished to explain what he had said as to General Espartero, as, from a paragraph in a newspaper which had caught his eye, he was represented as accusing him of want of personal courage. The courage of that officer was as unquestioned as it was unquestionable. His (Sir H. Douglas's) observations were confined to the operations of the corps d'armée, which he had thought disgraceful, and he thought so still. He took the earliest opportunity of offering this explanation with respect to an illustrious individual, absent and in adversity.
