Om sf the most Nth, end popular of these is the notorious M. Ber nell, el the late club Bonne Nouvelle. This Wi eland yesterday harangued the populace at a wine lisp in ihe 13atignolles, when a body of socialists lmaelly assemble, and used the most insulting lan =respecting General Lamoriciero and M. 0. Another of the characters which figure in then re-anions is the son of M. Madier de Montjeau, formerly a councillor of the Coon of Caseation, who resigned his office after the circulars of M. Loden Rollin. This individual rivals the popu lariV of M. Bernard. Another of these demagogues is M. Chauvelot. This individual apes Robespierre in his costume, and indulges in the most extravagant violate, of language ; he figures espeeisliy in the Quarter St. Denis and the Rue Mouffetard, where the chiffonkre habitually congregate, and where the name of Robespierre never tails to excite an outburst of spurious enthusiasm. Among the Socialists who fre quent the clubs there is at present an apparent differ ence of sentiment, some disavowing terror, and pledging themselves to burn the guillotine, while others utter the most atrocious threats against M. de Lamartine has left Paris, as I have stated would be the use ' on a provincial tour.

The Federal Gaulle of Zurich publishes letter from Arona of the 15th, which state that Charles Albert is marching on Milan, with 100,000 men ; 30,000 are to march on. Piacenza. The Courier de Marseille of the 19th, quoting advioes from Genoa the 14th, soya: "This evening several companies of artillery will leave for Alessandria. On the 16th the brigade of the Queen will march for the same place. The departure of the brigade Aorta, in the direction rd Berms, is also announced." The 411,a of Florence, of the 15th, under date of Leghorn, the 13th, says: " The captain of the &Mi nima steamer 11 Virgilio, arrived this morning, sa meness that, on his departure from Genoa, the Na *sal Guard had been mobilised, and were ready to amok u well as 23,000 troops of the line." Awarding to general report, Charles Albert had desired that, if the Austrians did not immediately evacuate Italy, he would, on the 20th, be under the walla of Milan. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Orr. 22. The prominent political trials are now over. The law has been vindicated and authority has triumphed. Mr. Meagher's conviction closes those cases in which the public felt, from many causes, a deep sad anxious interest. That interest is now transferred to the metropolis, and centred in the proceedings which are being taken against Mr. C. G. Duffy. The great pro bability is, that after the trial of Orchard, the sentinel of Mr. B. O'Brien'. body-guard at Killensule, and "the Commons," together with a few others known to have been personally engaged in the attacks on the police, the commission at Clonmel will close, es a con tinuance of the proceedings would answer no advan tageous purpose. It is said that the Attorney-General is already in Dublin, and that the conduct of the future proceedings in Clonmel will be committed to his learned colleague. Mr. Monaghan will himself un dertake in the case against Mr. Duffy, who is considered by many to have been the real lea—the prime and real mover in all the proceedings, arrangements, and organisation which eventuated in the late abortive outbreak. Mr. Whiteside's retaining fee in the ease of Mr. B. O'Brien was WO/. The commission for the city and county of Dublin was opened yesterday, by Justices Torrens and Crampton. When the grand jurors were sworn, Mr. Justice Torrens addressed &sm. His lordship alluded to the proceedings at the last commission in the eves of O'Dohe!ty, Duffy, and Williams, against when the grand jury had found true bills for feloniously publishing seditious libels in the Nation end Tribune newspapers. With these cases, of j course, the present grand ury would have nothing to do; but as the law officers of the Crown were at present engaged at the special commission in Memel, he could not state whether or not any new matter of importance would be sent before them by the Attorney-General, on his return to town. There was a case to which he felt it hie duty to allude— one which arose out of the late unfortunate political excitement which had disturbed the peace and endangered the prosperity of the country—he meant the charge against Michael Moran, John Moran, and John M'Cormick, for stabbing • police.oonstable while in the execution of hie duty. If they (the grand jury) were satisfied with the evidence that would be offered is support of the charge, they would find true bills. After some further remarks, his lordship concluded, and the grand jurors retired to consider the indict ments sent before them. Constable Byrne, who was stabbed in Georges-street, bat July, by the three confederates sheet to be tried for that offence, appeared in the court-hosse in Green-street, en crutehea. He still appears delicate, and it is more than probable the brave fellow will never fully recover the us of his limbs. He has been superannuated on full pay-431. a-year. The Lord- Lieutenant presented him with a gratuity of 301., and a private subscription, some time on foot for him, amounts to between 2001. and 3001. It is all too little for the services rendered by him, and the sufferings he has endured from his wounds. THE SPECIAL COMMISSION. I I TRIAL AND CONVICTION OF MR. T. F. MEAOHER. CLONMEL, Ocr. 20. This naming Hr. Whitodde resumed his address for the deanee. After a brief recapitulation of what he had ad viand an the review day, he entered into a minute ann. bole of the evidence and character of the witness Dobbyn. He ihnt pointed cat the diearepeacies in his evidence, and then the additions made le it ohms his fanner examination, whisk alone would =poem him to suspicion.

This epees of universal subserviency, that makes the very me vent who waits behind your chair the arbiter of your life and fortune, has such a tendmay. to degrade and deb. man kind, and to deprive them of that easorad and liberal state of mind which alone can make se what we ought to be, that I vow to God I would sooner bring myself to sentence a man to immediate death for opinions I disliked, and so get rid of the man sad of hies opinion" at once, than to fret his with a feverish being, tainted with the pol disunities of a contagions servitude, and to keep him above ground an animated mum of putrefraction, corrupted himself, and corrupting all around him.' Do not thus fritter away the noblest statute on oar books? A single witness sad a spy to establish guilt beyond a doubt In high treason divests the subject of all protection. The writings or sets of ethos are only evidence when you believe the previous conspiracy to have been eitablished; but they cannot prove what must be established by in dependent proof. Awful the responsibility of the jury which shall venture to touch human life on such evidence. Justice forbids it Take your stand urea the ancient law of Englasd ; it breathes the spirit of liberty and reason. Depart sot one iota from that blared enactment sanctified by the wisdom of antiquity, and founded on Immutable Peke. The lives and liberties of your felloasubjeets are now con fided to your watchful care,. Let the conspirator be punished for his c apiracy—the traitor for his team.

Can you be satisfied beyond a doubt that the prisoner levied war against the Queen? Impossible. If not convinced to demonstration, an acquittal is my right. A mistake here would be fetal and terrible—a thing so dreadful that, if you hereafter discover it, sad if you bring the blood of a fellow-creature upon your heeds, you may be tortured through life with a vain remorse, and your consciences terrified at the hour of death. Who is the prisoner whose acquittal I demand in the name of jus tice ?

Mr. Butt then said, it was now his duty to comment upon the entire case which had been presented to the jay. The law allowed the primer the indulgence to have his case sthkem to by two counsel. He (Mr. Batt), however, feared tW that whisk the law comidera an haulm°, would, in Weems, an be ot benefit to his client.

(*id he bye asesuka his own feelings, he would have eared me thsenaties to the jury attar the address of his leaned friend, but be believed that the safest cures was to adhere to the strict rule of his solemn duty, and address them. It might have its use. He had read in the history of those devises by which images are impressed on metals that they are impressed whilst the metals are intensely leant and become indelible by the cool ing proems, and be trusted that if the impressions which the burning eloquent' of his learned friend must have created on their minds were cooled down by any thing he himself addressed to them,—he treated that at lean it would render those impressions indelible. He knew that this case was of the greatest importance to public liberty, but he had sometimes lost sight of that consideration when be remembered whom he was defending. Standing in the doek, weighed down by prejudice, branded with mimes the very imputation of which he abhorred, open to the charge of many iadimetions which he (ide. Butt) would net attempt to &t end, he rose to address them with admi ration for the genius of his client, and with sincere appre ciation of the chivalrous enthusiasm and noble qualities whisk that genius had made conspicuous in his country. When he thought of the burning eloquence in which the prisoner had oftentimes endeavoured to calm down that fty which was the bane of his land—the chi v rous enthusiasm with which unhappy dared every danger to do that which he believed to he his duty—the noble qualities and unpretending and mild demeanour which endured him to all who knew him—the glorious dawn that opened on his existence, and then saw him standing in that dock which conjured up associations the most terrible end gloomy, standing upon the spot that had been trodden by man a murderer who had bean thence hurried to an ignomin l sea doom,—as the darkness of evening stole on the protracted proceedings of the court, he could almost fancy that he saw their shades flitting round the dock, and deeply did he (eel that such a men as his client should be placed in sub a situation,—he felt—he knew what their verdict ought to be ; but until their verdict of acquittal was promonnoed, he could not know that peace of mind which he had never felt since the defence of his client was *strata to him. But he now came to the evidence. He knew not how to ualyse it. Every attempt to test it by any known principle of law failed him— it was en unarrangtod chaotic mass, on which, except perhaps in one nemocable we the life of ao man ens ever before Jeopardised In the hist o ry of British jurisprudence. The rule of law had tweed upon them the consideration of the mass of evidence, and when he recollected that upon their power of discrimination depended the honour the liberty, the lite Mills client, he d e ep ly felt the solemnity of the occasion, and they would pard on him if he said that throughout this trial he had 100 ed with confidence to the Great Judge of all the earth, who alone could protect his client fithmtaly did he ins tribunal lore of that great Being that on every aedill:i d eate:l, which the jas would t id ea d t o wn he beach isdom h re quired to hold the soaks of Justin evenly in times of great excitement , sad that to tie jury might be granted the abiht riehtly to Amide the solemn question that was now submitted es them, so that justice might be does to hie client, not by a tyrunkal law, not by prejudice, not so as to deserve the unisons that had been uttered against the wild jostles at revenge," but issues according to the principles of that ancient law upu which depended their lives and properties as well as the life of the prisoner. In those sentiments his client :participated. He never desired more for kis country than that she should have the same law end constitution as England, though he felt that that would be but an unmeaning form if they bad not a tee sad national parliament By the prin ciple' of thet esenituthet did he call upon them to try his efient, and teem bin every advantage of those principles whisk he half Meet so well.

The evidence consisted of three speeches, madames' time einee,—two docu ments, some loose words, and three sets. Were the speeches, which he had the Maur to defend before a Dublin jury on a chums oi being seditious, to be found treasonable by sin, in Tipperary ? Were they to find Mr. Meagher stalky because he had vindicated the sacred doctrine of resistpaos—the doctrine Viitrowngy tlaurin , Planket, and Broke. and carried into effect by those who brought about the glorious era of 1782, among whom were enrolled the megaton of every family in their country. They encircled their cannon with the motto, '• A free oonstt totion, or else —." In one day England granted their demands, bat she did not venture to all them traitors. His client had read " Blackstate ;" be had heard, too, what had been said by a great man of the present day, that the right of private resistance wee an awful duty to be kept in the heart, and not lightly evoked upon the lips ; and was he to be blamed for thinkiog that, if around another Bohannon church assembled the nobles of the land to give solidity to the movement el the stout yeomen, and if the British minister turned a deaf ear to their request, the papa of this country would be justified in mating their rights by force ? In a caner in which he had cast around him, like the fabled chariot of the king of old, gems of sparkling lustre, he might have cherished too fondly the dream of uniting the people of this distracted country into one common object. Hie client spoke of Franklin: he was a man who for the independence of his country, but no one alNd hl traitor. Hs era now held in honour among all the nations of Europe, and even in the days when he appeared as a rebel to England, one of the greatest men who ever spoke in the Bridal parliament declared, " America has rebelled, and I rejoice." The leading feature of his client's career was the union of all ranks and dame for his country's in dependent,. His was no sectarian religious bigotry. He me wed the gaps& power of his clergy when they attempted teamster the limits of spiritual power. Ireland never could b e tree till every attempt to exercise a spiritual despot ism over the opinions of men wits instantly and indignantly rejected.

The real object of ad daring those speeches was to show that his client was a man likely to be a traitor. If he were found guilty on such a aea s eeuedos, his life would be taken away on false pre MOIL Had the Attorney-General declared the intent with whisk the speak was introduced, the court would have at ease reload is admit it.

But If, after all the deliberation which en honest and con scientious men they were bound by their oaths to give, they returned a verdict fri guilty, erroneous as he believed it would be, he sad his client would not murmur at their de eieion. Let them cast aside prejudice, indolence, and inat tention, and he did not fear salt a result. Whatever topic* of a political character had been introduced, the Attorney- General was responsible for them when he threw dawn a speech in which was enunciated abstract questions of politic*, and asked them to take it es a proof of treason. But let them look to the reports of the spathes which had beau offend to them by policemen. Did not speeches depend on the character and temper of the men who uttered them The enthusiast would speak far differ ently from the man of cold and cautious habits, and very different must be the regard paid to the words of each. The prisoner was a 'man of genius. If there were one quality which, more than another, demanded the forbearance of men, it wee that brilliant—too often fatal—gift of Heaven. It brought the firs of its original conception from the skies, but it aho brought with it the penalty of its Brat pacemor— the vulture and the rock. Yoe! too often were the elations thoughts sad fiery aspirations which had their birth in genius the source of torture to the breast where they found - their meting-place. It was one of the most prominent traits of genius, that in the utterance of pamionate words it evinced its devotion to the cause it espoused. They must be regarded as the ontparinge ot the fervid enthaisam from which they arose. If he were to be asked with a cold sneer whether • man of genius should be allowed to commit treason with im punity, ite would at once reply, no; but that they should ermine his speeches by no cold and calculating standard of worldly polity . Mr. Meagher was naturally indignant at the of Xr. Mitchel. He remembered, too, when a similar course had been pursued in Mr. O'Connell's PPM, Mr. Shen and many gentlemen in high °Moe protested against it. Lord J. Burnell said—and when he (Mr. Butt) read it he confessed be bused pith shame sad indignation—that "if Mr. O'Connell had been tried in Bar/land, he would have bees acquitted, but that English juries had always preteslei liberty, while Irish juries had knelt upon it. " ' Tee, he blushed, for ha lelt the imputation was in some degree tree : " Eudet hoc opproblum noLis, Et diei pots; Et non poke! repalli" Bat, on Miteltel's trial, oat of seventy jurymen thirty-five wore set aside by the Atterney-Cknml, and reading Black- atom," kis client said, that which was only intended as a veto was made an election by the crown. Mitchel had bees his political opponent, but whea he saw him the victim of what appeared to him to be oppression, with his usual gene ra= enthusiasm, he forgot all past differences and rave Teat to his inditnation. Would that they had more of ibat spirit In their nahsppy land. What signs/don was made on one class that yon do net find another its advocates and sm. pleaders ? With class spinet class the country was fast slaking beneath their feet. Far different was it in England. There every man felt the blow aimed at the liberties of one was aimed at all, and therefore they had spew up like OM to protest Wilkes and such as he. The know ledge they had of his client's nature should In duce them to believe that the man who refused to sanction an attempt to rescue Mitchel in Aril would not commit treason in July with Mr. O'Brien. They should, on the contrary, believe that he went to Boulagh- OOMMeII to reason with him against the coma:intim of it. Bat they had the evidence of the prisoner himself, that ho often uttered words of which, in cooler moments, he re pmted. He make that speech in a state of excitement. He had just seen his friend dragged from the felon's dock, to leave his wife a widow—never to visit his native land again. Ina moment of iritation if not pardonable, at least account able, he might have advised the clubs to attempt a ream, but he retracted that advice when reflection same, and pre vented slaughter and bloodshed by his disussion and by the influence of his example and personal popularity. Suppose his advice had not been listened to, and that the clubs had made the attempt, would they find him guilty of treason ? 1 The leading idea of his life was the erection of Ireland into a happy and lea nation, when they should be rescued from the state of miserable provincialism into which they were plunged, and that idea was developed in every speech he uttered. The object Fr which they had been in:eoduced was to show a treasonable intent. The Attorney-Oenend, having them in his pomeseon, should have stopped crime, and not to have lain by till intention was consummated in act. If the government had asked any magistrate in Dublin for a warrant on those speeches, he would not have heeiteted to grant it for a moment. But they did not do so. Could it be possible that any member cf the government had been capable of watching that yowl man sail he had dons an act for which his life was forfeit, there wan no lan guage strong enough to express the abhorrence of his souk He was sure the Attorney-Oeneral would score to do the bidding of any minister and track his client for blood; hat then he must have been convincA that the speech was not criminal. What would they say if a prosecution were insti sited.against the members of any of tne late government in past tunes on mocunt of the Bristol riots? Was Irish inde pendence a crime ? No. That people were dependant on no nation in world. If a man talked of nationality he was sneered at in Ireland, but in no other country was the love of fatherland a crime—of no other country could it be said . . -- 'Tyra& treason to love her, 'Two death to defend. At seven o'clock Mr. Butt applied to the court to adjourn, but Lord Chief Justice Blackbarne at first refused, beau* cowing had indulged in extraneous observations in the course of his address:, and because of the critical period of the week. Mr. Meagher appealed to his lordship to do so in justice to his mused sad to his cause, and The court filially coasented to secede to his request, what am might be the coosequeuce The wart mcordlagly roes. OCTOBER 21. The court sat this morning at a quarter to nine o'clock. Mr. Butt, Q.C., resumed his address to the jury on behalf of the primmer. He said he thanked the court and the jury for the Indulgence extended to him on the previous evening. Ile did feel the nice of the remark of the Lord Chief Jew ties, theta good deal of time had been exhausted in discus sing irrelevant topics, but if the crown chose to bring forward speeches apinathis client, to throw them in as make.weights ageing his life, he conceived that he was justified in referring te the topics to which he had alluded ; and if the speeches woe diendod or irrelevant, he eoald consent to his obser ving' spa the ease snide by the crown being put out of the we. The learned counsel then alluded to the evidence elDebbyn at mach length, imputing perjury and falsehood te Wm, sad upou the jury to disbelieve that any war einacil had ever been elected. The learned counsel next mad the letters written by Mr. Meagher to Mr. O'Brien and Mr. Smith. He designated the former as the composition of a bey, at all events of an ardent young man, who was going *America, not for treasonable purpoees, but to see the esnatry, and increase the laudable and legal sympathy in Amharic& fn his country (Ireland). Then as to the latter le ter he said that the pongee, ' We will have the upper Immel et her in time--the clubs will do the business—don't 61110 France and the revolution," had reference merely to the ihneation of confederate clubs in Cork, and the history MI the revolution by Lemartine, and not to the last French 'evolution, which did not occur till long after the letter was written. He next complained of the eupprenion of evidence —the detective system—the powers of the inquisition having been brought to bear upon his client, and scraps of cone spedence having been selected and put forward to convict km Ant ; and then discussed that part of the ease which, he emelhesed, filled him with horror and dismay—namely, the maim of the policemen. Had not the jury often seen him end We Is friends differing as to the words which had been aid by a winces ; sad had not their lordships fee quendystepped him while examining& witness, and told him he was gent too fast Were they there in that solemn pro cedure to rely upon such reports of conversation as had been detailed by policemen. He called upon them to dismiss alto gether from their minds all the evidence of the speeches read in that ease. What wen the sets done by his t ? First, the conspiracy in Dublin, ens word of gbh* the jury could not believe • then as to travelling with Mr. O'Brien through the countr y; was not the Mir interpretation of his journey a desire on his part to rescue Mr. O'Brien from arrest f What proof was there of secret conspiracy? Had Mr. Meagher used any weapon ?—had he on the mountain side met armed men ?—he could understand a charge of treason i f such acts bad been done by the prisoner ; but he could not understand how treason could be imputed to his client. He did not contend for his client that he would not have taken up arms for his country if a proper ccession arose for a general national revolution ; but he denied for him that he had even dreamed of such an insurrection as that which took place in the .rmonth of July last—as of a war of class against class—a thing from which his soul would shrink with abhorrence. He therefore contended that when he separated from Mr. n Bolough.common, be only proved his adherence to the O'Brien,Pr ieciples of his life. Ia conclusion, let his ask upon what was that prosecution founded ? Upon the testimony of Dobbyn—on the letter from Cork, and • mass of looeely.reported speeches. He there. fore called on them to tell the Attorney-General, by their verdict, that the case he had preeentedagainst the prisoner had utterly broken down, and that they would not find the prisoner guilty upon it, he not having been proveably attainted by open and unequivocal acts and deeds, as according to law he must be. He asked them again to call back to their minds the speeches which his client made in Dublin—to read carefully those splendid lessons of tolera tion and peace—those grand lessons of order and loyalty which he had inculcated on his countrymen—and a.k them- Nivea whether they ought not to obliterate from their memories the loose and indiscreet, ay, if they would have it so, these seditious 'penises, into which persecution and per suasion had betrayed him. Everything given in evidence in that trial was left to the jury. On them depended, whether • precedent should be established that might prove fatal to the liberties of the country. It was by the independence of jurors that their liberties were alone protected, and if the' ury ha addressed betrayed the high trust reposed in them that day, u ti s s e lr would be establishing a precedent that might betheir own children hereafter. He would pray the against aHeing who presided over that tribunal before which they must all appear, to rennet his client from a verdict of pity, founded upon such evidence as had been brought against him by the crown on the present trial ; and, fully confiding in the impartiality of the judges on the bench, in the honour, integrity, and determination of the jury, and in the justice and righteousness of the case he presented to them, he felt that the high and noble qualities of his client were not to meet the Moines doom ; and that their verdict would redeem him from the inventive jangles don of spies and informers, and restore him to the service of his Queen and country. The learned gentleman was ap plauded upon resuming his seat. Chief Justice to the primmer Now is your time to say anything to the coast and jury if you desire it. Mr. Meagher : No, my lord, I do not wish to say any thing ; I ant perfectly enteded with the manner in which my counsel has defeoded me. The rem and said, that it then become his duty to address some observations to the court and jury upon the am which had occupied so much of their patience and time. A great number of what he considered irrelevant leeks had been brought forward by his leaned friend who had last addressed them, but what purpose they could serve he was Welly at a lost to know, unless indeed to withdraw their attention from the fats of the real question which they had to try. The prisoner was indicted for levyins war against the Queen, and was indicted as a principal in the commission of the aims of high treason. The learned gentleman here reviewed the law of high treason as applicable to the present cue, and admitted that the speeches delivered by Mr. Meagher were not treason, but they were used on the part of the Crown to show the intention of Mr. Meagher when he addressed the populace of Carrick the night before the insurrectionary moverwat, and his appearance in Killenaule, hold fag wi h ten others, a omaneil of war. They ware to say wheat r they could draw any other conclusion from this, than that he accompanied armed bodies marching through Ballingarry—was contributing his aid—using that gift of elapse, co which God gave him (and which every man should regret had not been differently employed) to excite the misjudging population to acts of rebellion, which had nnfortuuately placed their lives in jeopardy. Having drawn the attention of the jury to the charges against the prisoner, Mr. Mitchell no ti his connection with the confederation, and said, that the case of the crown was, that from the IIINIMMt the French revolution took place, a party was hood in Ireland who contemplated the severance of Tre bled froil England, and the establishment of a republic. That par y oommuniatrod with the French government, and the adds a to the French government was moved by Mr. Meagher !n a speech which inculcated war against the vim. tax ass the request of • native parliament were eon• Nisi. Tie Solicitor-General here noticed Mr. Meagher'. deiverei at the soiree given is compliment to the that had gone to France, and said that if ex pressions e.libeeately made were to have no weight. he could set wader • and what words meant. He did not wish to give them mem: weight than they deserved, but the speeches car ried out C. • dealt' of a co-operation with France to Ma relish a ' , operate republic in Ireland. The month of May In S pregnant with the design of a straggle between the govern ment and the clubs, and it was impassible that they should not take measures to preserve the loyal inhabitants from violence. He had heard counsel charge the government with an intention to create a false panic by bringing troops into the city, but the jury erou'd see that if the government had not taken the precou.iom which they had done, and pos sessed the force of 10,000 men, the city of Dahlia would have been smoking in a fearful conflagration, and plunged in the horrors of a bloody insurrection • and they would see that the rescue of Mitchel had not been attempt:4 merely because the military was in the country, and there was tot sufficient food to enable the people to Aso in moosssful revolt. Part of the machinery of the period we. to degrade, villify, and traduce the tribunals which were to try the persons who might be arrested and arraigned for their sedi tious proceedings. Mr. Meagher considered that Mr. Mitchel had been illegal 'y convicted, and a document was prepared by the Confederation, animadverting upon the con stitution of the jury by whom he had been tried. Whenever these agitators and orators spoke of British tyranny, they included every loyal and well affected man. The document went on to soy " that the holy hatred of Mitchel to British rule having - been manifestly shared by an overwhelming majority of the citizens of Dublin, it had become necessary for the servants of the crown to take cars that none but en enemy to his principles should be upon his jury." This was • falsehood, for there was yet a sufficient number of loyal citizens who were willing and eh'e to detect, defeat, and expose the machinations of traitors. The document further eland, red the Attorney-General and the High Sheriff of Dublin. representing the latter as the nominee and instrument of the crown,—the fact be ing that Le was one of the three sheriffs nominated by the edges. The learned counsel then read the speeches of Mr. agher, laying particular emphasie upon the passag es, t. we shell be the martyrs or rulers of a revoluti n; " summon the intellect and heroism of the democracy from the work *op . to the death I will be the subject, Cr the soldier of a gal= king." These passages were in the florid stile of Mr. Meagher, which characterised a great deal of his speeches. It was the language of a democrat expressing the sentiments and projects of en executive government or of a plebian king heading a provisional government consti tuted by the democracy. Then Mr. Meagher stated that thousands had pledged themselves not to let John Mitchel leave Ireland bat through their blood, but he dissuaded them from the attempt ; had the signal been given, which the people panted to emotive, the rescue would have been made. This speech was delivered on the 6th of June, and after that period the Redthend and Curran clubs were formed. For what purpose, but a rebellious one? Mr. Maher wee the life, metre, and soul of the confederation, and why had he dissuaded the people from making the attempt to rescue Mitchel? Because there wee a concentration of 10,000 soldiers in Dublin—because the organisation of the people was incomplete, the food insufficient, and there we, an uncertainty as to whether the country parts would sup port them. From that hour it was resolved to try the country parts—to test the insurrectionary tendencies of the peosantry. And what were the words of the pri soner to Pemberton ? Why that "the towns were with them, and, so far as he had gone, the country were also of the same mind." Did not these expressions demonstrate that the intention was to commence the revolution when the whole of the country was properly and strongly organised—equally so with the towns? I the first advice given by the prisoner, by his acknowledgment, ' in that speech, had been pursued, the streets of Dublin would have been covered with blood. If that advice bad not been retracted, who would have been to blame for the con sequences that would have followed ; and why had it been retracted ? Why, only because he thought it was impracti cable to carry it out just then. He had a consultation with his friends on the subject, and the more wily and wary amongatthem dissuaded him from an immediate nummection otherwise he would not have allowed the sent of the law to have been executed on the convict Mitchel. Refer ring to the evidence of Dobbyn the learned counsel contended that even if his evidence was put altogether out of the case, there remained ample testimony in proof of the in tentions with which the prisoner entered into • conspiracy to involve the country in an insurrection. But he submitted that there could be no doubt upon the minds of any of the jury but that there had been an election of • war council of five persons, and that both Dobbyn and the prisoner were present at and had assisted in its formation. Why, lot him ask, had not Mr. Meagher shown his innocence by proving an alibi—by explaining by evidence, as he might have done if he was not present at that meeting, where he had spent his time while the proceedings connected with the election of the war council were going forward. The Solicitor-General then commented at length upon the evidence of the mown, which related to the transactions at Ballingarry, and endea voured to show that the prisoner, by his having been in that town, in the compa of Mr. O'Brien, on the eL previous to the affair at l'arrinrory, and having ace Mr. O'Brien by haranguing the armed multitude assembled there, must be regarded is one of the principal chiefs of the insurrection, and held to be equally culpable for the subsequent proceedings of Mr. O'Brien, as if he had remained at Ball and joined him in the attack on Mr. Trant'a party. Ile found is Carrickmockkr, in the midst of the scene of action, com manding a view of Mullinahone and Balliugarry, he and others we re lying in ambuscade near Slievenantan moun tains. What innocent motive could the prisoner have had ? See his conduct and connection with the leaders of the insurrection—and consider his speeches to the populace This was the cue on the part of the Crown. He did not wish to strain it. The question for the jury was, whether the prisoner was not aiding, ad vising, counselling, and co-operating with the revolu tionists; whether, by his speeches at Carrick and other piton', he had no t instigated the people to act as they had dens at Mullinahone and Bellingerry. Could there be a doubt that Mr. Meagher was implicated in the instureetion, directing, instigating, inflaming, and exciting the people ? Until the failure of the attack at Farrinrory he remained in the district ; and when he we arrested he appeared in the same dress u that which he had worn when he was first seen in the country. In conclusion, the learned gentleman said he would leave the PAS in their hands as the artdters of justice, confident that they would give a just and impartial verdict The Chief Justin commenced charging the jury at two o'clock. He said that, after the long and patient investigation of the case, it was then in the hands of the jury, add upon them exclusively the law devolved its determination. He was persuaded that that deter mination, whatever it might be, would be the result of a calm, dispassionate investigation of the facts of the case co me to upon ate consideration of the evidence in the case, without revel to what they had heard either in the court or outside the court, which did not properly belong to the case. They were to found their verdict—it was their sworn duty to do so —upon the evidences which they had heard. He felt per fectly persuaded that in finding their verdict, whatever it might be, they would be uninfluenced by favour, by prejudice, or by fear, save the hard Him, before whom, end upon whose sacred word they had invoked his aid to dotheir duty, and finds verdict according to the evidence. It was his duty to state to the jury the nature of the charge which had been preferred against the prisoner, and bring it distinctly before them, so that, when they come to apply the evidence to it, they might not be under any misapprehension. It was their duty to decide the credit which the witnesses were to receive. It was their duty to decide upon the weight and value of the evidence—to apply that to the charge preferred against the prisoner, and he told them in the largest sense of the word, that the determination of the case, according to the evidence, was exclusively for the jury ; and he neither could, nor would he make any observation upon a matter of fact, except in deference to their hotter judgment. The charge was that of having levied war against the queen in her realm. Various acts were stated in the indictment of that lev yin g of war, and the prisoner we. charged with haying done thus iris. The charge of levying war in the terms of the indictment aught either an actual appearing in arms, by the party , or it might mean that he had incited others to appear arms ; and hes might be guilty of the crime of levying war, if others appeared in arum, although he did not himself, provided they did it upon his advise, sanction, or procurement. He would, therefore, say that they had two facts to decide—firstwhetherwar wasactually levied; secondly, whether the prisoner was either actually present when any of those acts which constituted war took place, or although, not present, had excited, advised, or aided those by whom the war was levied. The jury had repeatedly heard that in high treason all were principals, none were accessories. He would illustrate to them the meaning of the words. He did not wish that anything should be talon upon his credit, or that of his distinguished coed juton ; he would quote the highest mitheritise, which would show that he was right. A and who incited murder and was not present at its commission was an accessory before the fact; but, as in high treason, all were principals, the man who excited the levying of war, warheld to be is pithy as the who committed the crime. So ;that he who excited to war, if war be levied, himself levied ;war mottling to the meaning of settled authorities. In Lord Hale a was laid down, that if divers conspired to levy war, and so actually levied it, all were principals, end here wee war levied. Again ; the SUN die. tinguished author and judge laid down that all such as counselled war, or aided and abetted the commission of any treason, whether present or absent, were principals. The same doctrine waslaid down by Mr. Justice Fatter, In nearly the same terms. It was well known, that in the language id the law, there were no accessories in high treason, as all were principah, so th at, if upon the evidence, the jury should be of opinion that the levying of war in this case we, at the incitement or pro curement of the prisoner, or by means of a conspiracy to which the prisoner was a p arty, be was as guilty in** eye of the law, and es much a principal as if he had himself actually appeared in arms. The ancient authorities of the law were followed up, and their meaning was expanded in modern cams of the highest authority. and by the meet emi nent of judges. In Watson's case, Mr. Justice Bailey said that treason differed from felony; what made an accessory in felony, made a principal in treason. He who planned a thing, drew on others to 00-operate, or did an act preparatory to the execution of the thing peopled, WAS as mach ac countable for every act done as if he had done it himself; and no matter when any one entered into the conspiracy', he eras a party to every eat before done by the others, or which might be done by any of them. Therefore, the question was, did such a person join the conspiracy ? Whether he did so at a meeting or not, if he were a party to a contrived he was as guilty as if he himself were present. Chief Justice purpose, Abbott, in the case, of Thietlewood, said that all who, in any way, or at anytime, became partakers in the project, were principals. That was the law ; there could be no misunderstanding about it, and they would therefore carry it in their minds as the alder result of the first legal authorities. The Nettled law of the land was, that he who advised, incited, and conspired= war, if war were afterwards actually levied, was chargeable with the crime of baringleried war eltheogh it was not levied in his own person. The Ironed edge then proceeded to state to the j ury what were the e tionte the law required to be proved , in order to constitute a levying of war, namely, the exist ence of the general project of an insurrection, and the .1
