In to-day's sitting of the Legislative Body the debate relative to free trade was continued. M. Rouher. who resumed his speech aft• r tooling a letter written by Mr. Gladstone, said he admired that the practice of giving customs permits had given rise to some abuse. The government was still examining this ques tion. M It other then entered into statistics to show the progress of French industry. lie stated that France ex ported to European markets to the amount of 700 million francs more than Rugland, and was only behind that country as regarded her exports to the East. He expressed hopes that by means of energetic oolopetition, and by throwing off the slrick les of timid couneil , , the trade of France - t rival that of England, even in the Et-t. (Cheere.) To those who :ask that the government should give notice of withdrawal from the treaty of oommerce, we reply point blank, no.

People out here have bum greatly amesed at one or two statements :mule in the linuse of Commons anent the pro bable expenditure. For instance, one hon. gentleman in office, when replying to a question put to him by moth er Lon. gentleman as to the number of ships employed by govern ment as transports for the Abyssinian Expedition, stated that th , , nlmber we. eighteen, while the Secretary of State for India informed the house that the probable ex• penditure to the en.l of May would be three millions. I am at this moment g:✓.iog over the harbour, and I can see a number of very fine looking ships. I am informed on very credible authority that the number 1 ani looking at is between 100 and 130, and that all of these are under the employment of government, and I am further 'Wormed that these are not all that have b. 4•71. !u; :sled by government, but that the total number is more likely 200 or even 2. - 0, and that govern ment has lien paying, And is now paying, and will cnnti• nue to pay, until their services are no loner required, P ims of money varying from I:is. to 1/. or :if. per ton per month as the hire for each of these ships, and that most of them have been employed since last October. 1 may as well here siy that the greater part of these ships are of more than one thousand tots register, many of them far larger, and that there are but very few ships for which less than It. per ton per month is paid. How• ever, taking the number of ships employed as 200, their average tonnage at 1,000 tons, and the average amount paid per ton a month at 11., it will be seen that the amount expended in eight months that ia , hour October to May inclusive—would be 1,1i00,000/.; and the coat of the shipping is by no means the only large rand important item in the total expenditure ; the purchase of transport animate, and the enormous sums paid for grass, grain, and food of all kinds,will swell the numbers far over:;, 000,000 f. I busigine that those officers serving in Abyssini r who are in positions in which they are able to give a fair estinvte of the amount expend:l would in all prelia'Ality lay the sum already expended asbet veen seven and eight miiliens. The nation should be taught to rejoice at our succeases in Abyssinia, but it is hardly fair to misrepresent the cost of those sure- sacs. TIIL DAN4:EItS fir TIIESTRZFTS.-- Yesterday Mr. Iledford, the coroner for Westminster, held an inquest at the Vestry-hall, St. Martin'sin-the.FiehlA, ou the body of Eizatii th Mary Lindsay, a maiden lady, aged 75, who met her death under shocking sircimistonces.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. In the Horse of COMMONS, yesterday, after our report left, the house went into committee on the Libel Bill. In committee a lengthened discussion took place on clause 3, which makes persons liable for the utterance of any defamatory matter reflecting on the character of another, which, if written and pub lished, would amount to a libel. Several members strongly objected to the clause, as placing a speaker in the power of the reporter. Ultimately a division was taken on the question that the clause be post poned, which was carried by 89 to 64. The Entail Amendment (Suotlaud) Bill was read a second time. The Railways (Guards and Passengers) Com munication 11111 was read a second time on the understanding that it was nut to be committed until the Railways Regulation Bill had been brought down from the Lords and read a second time. The County Courts (Admiralty Jurisdiction) Bill was read a third time and passed. Bills were brought in by Mr. K esxwien to make provision, in the case of boroughs ceasing to return members to serve in parliament, respecting rights of election which have been vested in the persons entitled to vote for such members ; and by Mr. H. B. SHERIDAN to make admissible, in any part of the United Kingdom, probate of wills or letters of administration granted or issued in Ireland. The house adjourned at five iniuutes to six o'clock. THE BRIGHTON COMPANY'S SUBURBAN EXTENSIONS. THE. NEW LINE TO ET-;ON. Of the numerous extension schemes proposed by the former directorate of the London and Brighton Rail. way Company, the present board, on coming into office, it will be renienibered, adopted only such lines as had been already commenced, and were likely to prove rerouneme tire. The principal of these, • line running to Sutton Junction, and a branch in connexion with it, have since been 1 roceeded with, though subject to some delay on ac count of the straitened condition of the money market, and will be ready for traffic in the course of • month or so. As giving a direct route to Epsom, it was inteuded to complete them so as to be available for conveying a portion of the heavy traffic of the Derby 1) say , but it has been found within the last few days that an amount of extra labour and expense would be involved in the requisite work as would altogether neutralise the advantage to be gained. They will probably, therefore, not be opened throughout till August or September, but one portion at least is to he finished by the end of next month. The new Sutton line branches from the South London Railwey of the Brighton Company, at • point near the Peckham-rye station of that system, and proceeds thence in a south-rasterly direction. The first station is situated but a abort distance from the junction, and will be known ea the Champion-bill station. The permanent way up to this point is laid down, and all the requisite ballast com pleted, as it is, except at rare intervals, throughout the course of the lice. The neat station, which is at Dul -1 wick, is already nearly iiniehed. Shortly after leaving this the line cuter, on the estates of Dulwich College, the trustees and governors of which have obliged the company to carry the railway over their property on a fine orna mental viaduct about half a mile in length. This was erected from designs prepared by Mr. Charles Barry, the surveyor to the college, and is a most effective piece of work. It is constructed of red brick, with a stone cornice and terracotta parapet, and its no way detracts from the appearance of the rich scenery of Dulwich. A girder bridge situated about the centre is of the same ornamental character, anal does great credit to the architect. Near the end of the viaduct, after crossing over the Chatham and Dover Railway, the line pierces through iu a tunnel about 30-1 yards in length, at the father end of which, and on the Norwood-road, a station is in course of erection. The roof is to cover four lines of rail, two of which are to be for the accommodation of the Chatham Company, who are constructing • short branch from this point to their line near ifernmbill Station. This branch does not, however, tunnel through Knight's-bill, but skirts around the foot of the slope and is carried on arches to Hsrne-hill. The South Western trains will also be enabled to run into this station by means of a branch emu. nitmicating with their sytein a short distance onwards. Adjoining the station the line ci °saes the West-end and Crys•id P.l.ine Railway, with which a connection is made by a double curve. Passing through two short tunnels another station is reached at Streatham, situated on the high road to Croydon. Some difficulty is found in giving the properly descriptive names to many of these suburban stations ; here, for instance, are several known as Streat ham Station, one 0 which, tpon the Balliam and Croydon Railway, is passed by the line a little far ther onwards. Two curves communicate with that line, and a third set of rails here branch off to form the Tooting, Merton, anal Wimbledon line of the company, which is on tie eve of completion, anal will be opened for traffic in the course of next month. The line foams a perfect loop, the end of which abuts on the South Western system at Wimbledon station. It provides five stations, viz. Tooting, Hayilon's-lane, Wimbledon (in common with the South Western Company), Lower Merton, and Merton Abbey, all of which aro at present in a forward state. Returning to the main or Sutton line, we proceed to Mitcham, where it toucher upon the Wimbledon and Croydon line near that station. From this point the country presents but few engineering difficulties, but the gradual slope of the land op to the Downs necessitates ra. tber steep gradients, that of lin SG prevailing for some con siderable dietance. Stations aro provided at Ikddington and Carshalton, and finally the line joins on to the Brighton system close to Sutton Junction, whence as Is well known a line continues through Epsom to Leather bead end iuto Sussex, and a short branch lately con. structed diverges up to the Downs, terminating close to Epsom race course. The length of the line from Peckham to Sutton is about 10 miles. The engineers are Messrs. Hood and Jacomb. Messrs. Firbank are the contractors, and the works have been carried out under the efficient superintendence of the resident engineer, Mr. C. H. Gough. Alma:Data CRUELTISS ON BOARD SHIP. --The following case, the incidents of which are of unparralleled atrocity, came before Mr. Raft , ' (the Liverpool stipen. diary magiatrate) yesterday :—Mr. Davis, prosecuting solicitor, applied for a warrant for the apprehounion of Denis Forman Seobell, master of the ship Lydia, of 700 tons. At Black River, Jamaica, a number of coloured seamen were shiped on board the Lydia, for a voyage to Great Britain, and hence to any tin - al port of discharge. During the voyage to Liverpool the whole of the crew were treated by the captain end brat and second mates (Am,elin Larkin and Francis Carroll), with the utmost barbarity. One named Campbell Lad his nose broken by Carr,-.11 with a capstan her ; another named Martin bad both his bead and nose broken by Carroll and Larkin third (Fuller) was beaten about the head with belaying pins until he fell fainting to the deck from lots of blood ; and another (Williams), after being beaten a b ou t th e h ea d with a broomstick until be was covered with blood, wag tied up by the neck and heels and received three dozen lashes. A fifth sailor (McDonald), a white man, after being beaten with a belaying pin by the first mate until his ribs were 'molten, his chest unnaturally distended, and his bead and face scarcely recog. nimble, died and was thrown overboard. In addition to these atrocities, the captain and mates indulged their I taste for the horrible and grotesque, by tying a number of the unhappy coloured men by slips of yarn passed round , the neck and pnveto parts, and w hil e i n thi s cons t ra i ne d 1 position the poor wretches were made to execute dances by gnarling them from behind. When th e s hip arr i ve d a t I Liverpool and these facts became known, Larkin was arrested and charged with wilful murder. The warrant for the apprehension of the captain was granted, and the second mate (Carroll) was snorted about au bout after wards. All the prisoners will be brought up to-day. The Lydia hails from Yarmouth. Nova Scotia. MURDER AND ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AT MAN lellEsTEß.—Yesterday morning a labourer named Thomas Donoghue, living in Salford, murdered his wife,tand after wards attempted suicide. H e li ve d a t 33, W oo d- s t reet, an d I soon after seven o'clock in the morning screams were I heard in the house, and soon afterwards, on some neigh ,' hours approaching, Donoghue staggered out, saying, " There's one done for, and there will soon be another 1" He was bleeding, and blood was issuing (tom his left ! breast. His wife was afterwards found dead inside the house, having received tw o st a b s i n the heart from • clasp knife which was found lying near the body on the I floor. Donoghue bad probably stabbed himself with th e same instrument, end it in hardly possible he can recover. iThe wife was a woman of dissipated habits, and the crime was probably committed under feelings of great irritation I arising out of her conduct. The man was removed to the Salford dispensary.

Since the announcement that the Prince of Wales intended to com pete , the number of as nobility, well as the princi pal matters of hounds throughout the kingdom, who have made entries, has been unprecedented. The gross number of entries ad mitted reach 375, the number last year being 340.

THE PROM/IED INTERNATIONAL ROWINO MATCH. —The following is the reply of the committee of the Ox• ford University Boat Club to the challenge from the Harvard Boat Club Oxford, May 16.—Ocattlenten,— We beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of April 20th. Had your challenge been to row a race against the Oxford eight, on the terms you mention, next September, we should have bad much p leasure in accepting it, though (as we mentioned at the commencement of our former cor respondence) it would be very difficult for us to get toge ther a crew at a time when all the members of our club have been for more than two months separated. As, how ever, your challenge is to row a race in September, 1869, we do not see bow we can either accept it or decline it, as it affects our suocessors, and not ourselves. A year makes a great difference in our club, and in all probability no member of our present committee will be at Oxford in 1869. Considering that a call upon our eight to row any match besides the annual one against Cambridge is entirely unprecedented, we are in this difficulty—that by accepting your challenge we should pledge our succes sors to do that which, when the time arrived, they might be either unable or unwilling to carry out. We can only answer for ourselves, and accept a challenge to race in the present year; but as regards a race in September, 1869, we think the best plan will be to let the matter stand over till the early part of next year, when (if you are still in tbeaame mind)you can renew your challenge to the rem mittee which will have succeeded us, and they will be able to answer for themselves.—We are, gentlemen, yours obediently, FRANK WILLAN, president ; W. WIGHTMAN Woon, secretary—For committee of the 0. U.B.C.—To the president and committee of Harvard University Boat Club." NAVAL AND MILITARY. PORTSMOUTH, MAY 20. The Staunch, 1, twin-screw iron gunboat, was commissioned this day by Lieutenant Hall, of the gunnery ship Excellent. She will try her gun (121 ton) and speed to-day at the measured mile, according to last orders. The Staunch is fitted with a 121 ton Armstrong, so arranged on a moveable platform that when at sea, or after dis charging, the great gun can be sent below, leaving the deck clear. Yesterday afternoon the offioers of the Bellerophon, iron clad frigate, gave a ball on the upper deck, which was covered with awning for the occasion. This morning 180 maxima of the Bellerophon, with field pieces, mustered on Southsea-common, and went through some review mane urros with skill and alacrity. They were accompanied by the band of the ship. The Irresistible, 68, two decker, is ordered to proceed to Bermuda re a receiving ship, similar to the Imaum at Jamaica. FIELD•DA] OF REGULARS AND MILITIA AT ALDERSHOT. Yesterday the Duke of Cambridge, Field-Mar shal Commanding-in-Chief, paid an official visit to the camp at Aldershot for the purpose of reviewing the militia regimente with the troops of the line prior to the disbanding of the former after their :34 days training, which this year has been performed at Aldershot. It had been very generally believed that her Majesty would review the forces pnor to her departure for Scotland, and some little disappointment was occasioned, amongst the militia regiments especially, from the fact becoming known yesterday that her Majesty had left Windsor the night previously for her Highland home. The troops, according to orders issued the previous day, formed up on the "Queen's Birth-day Parade " on Cove Common, on the northern side of the Basingstoke Canal, at nine o'clock, in line of contiguous columns. It is several years since four teen regiments of infantry have been stationed at one time at Aldershot, and the force of yesterday presented a really imposing appearance. The numbers were pretty evey divided, there being seven regiments of the line and seven of militia on the ground, divided into three brigades. The militia regiments were stronger by perhaps a hundred than those of the regulars, and the whole force numbered, according to the " official state," only 7,119, being an average of 506 men per regiment. It has often been noticed that regiments at Aldershot reviews are invariably weak in numbers, but the "casualties," the finding of guards, sentries, pickets, cooks, servants, and sick in hospital, will reduce the strength of a corps nearly 20 per cent.; and thus it happened yesterday that although there were 14 regiments present at the review, the number scarcely exceeded 7,000. Indeed, the ave rage of the line regimenteyesterday was only • fraction over 400, the auxi li ary force being correspondingly stronger. A grand ball was to be given last night at the Clubhouse by the Earl of Lovelace and the officers of the 2nd Surrey Militia, to which nearly 400 were expected. The regi ments of militia leave the camp this day, to-morrow, and Saturday, and next week the summer arrivals of regular troops will commence. The regiments expected are the 10th Human (to-morrow), the sth Dragoon Guards next week or the following, a regiment of the Household Cavalry, two field batteries of the 11th Brigade Royal Artillery. and about a dozen infantry regiments from the following, which have not had a turn of Aldershot service : 2nd battalion, 2nd ; 2nd battalion, 3rd ; 2nd battalion, ssh ; 2nd battalion, 6th ; 2nd battalion, 7th ; 2nd batta lion, 13th ; let battalion, 20th ; 2nd battalion, 22nd ; 34th, 35th, 42nd, 67tb, and 97th regiments, so that a brilliant summer season may be fully expected at Aldershot during the next three or four mouths. The weather was delight fully cool after the two previous hot days. On Monday, when the troops were out at a rehearsal of the move ments of yesterday, a sergeant of the let Loyal Surrey Militia fell down from sunstroke. He was taken to his quarters, but rallied, and died in leas than half an hour. ADMIRALTY, MAY 20.—A PPOINTICENTS.--Lieu tenant Charles D. Eden, to the Cost ; Paymasters Frede rick Luau and Stephen H.

VOLUNTERR BRIGADING. —A memorial was re cently addressed to the Secretary of State for War by the Volunteer Association of the county of Devoe, suggest ing the expediency of making a special grant of public money " to be applied to purposes of brigading the volan. teem, either alone or in conjunction with regular r for instruction in brigade movements, either at t sp=l field days, in camps, or other aggregate assemblages." The council urged that the real e Meng of the volun teers could only be tested by such means, and that as the object is purely national, the omit ought not to fall upon the volunteers themselves, or rest for its provision on the voluntary contribution of in dividuals. Lord Longford's reply was to the effect that Sir John Pakington had no "special funds" at his dispo- sal for the purposes suggested ; bat that in the estimates fat the current year the allowance for outlying corps of ad ministrative regiments and outlying companies of corps had been increased from is. to be. Hon. G. A. TULIN, ex-Consul-General of Sweden and Norway, and of Prussia, in Genoa, writes, December 16, 1865, to Hon. Amos PERU, U.S. Consel-General, Tunis :—" Dear filr,—Aeoept my thanks for this third supply of Davis's Pain Hiller.

None genuine without Perm Davis and San's trade mark, r•re RILLE It, on' the government damp.---(Advt.] TEE POLICE COURT& GUILDHALL Philip Charles Ricial,Who was described en the charge sheet as • beetmaker having no bed residence, wee placed at the bar, en remand, before Alderman Canton and Alder maa Hale. charged with riesling freer pain of leather half soles from the shop of Marra Saxes and Waddington, leathersellers, of 87, Bartholomew-dose. It appeared net the prisoase went into the procurators' warehouse about eleven o'clock on Tuesday morning, and asked for a pair of ludheelres and some nods. He was served with them and the change was placed on the counter for him, when ono of the assistants cams up and took out of his carpet-bag four pairs of half-soles which be had stolen from the box out of which he was to select the one pair he purchased. The reason he had been watched was that Charles Baker, 333 L, had observed him going into the shop on various °cautions and knowing him to be a bad character he oeutioaed them to be careful of him; con sequently they watched him and caught him. The soles were identified by certain marks upon them. They found en the prisoner 26 duplicates, all relatiog to boots and "ET er, in answer to Mr. Alderman Causton, said that the prisoner had not been long out of prison for a similar offence. He had, besides, been summoned to this court for detaining the boots of several police offioers which he had bad to repair. Felix Sims, City police-constable, said that he had the prisoner in custody for a similar offence and he was sum marily convicted and sentenced to th ree month& hard labour. He bail been out of prison about a fortnight. The prisoner said it was poverty that made him do it. The prisoner was fully committed for trial. Robert Walker, Somerset-place, Bevington-street, Hox. ton, applied to Alderman Caution for his assistance under the following circumstances. Ilia mother had insured her life in the Provincial Uuion Assurance Company, of N 0.4, iffietham-place, Bridge-street, Mackin/ere, for 4/. 12a. The last payment made was fur seven weeks. He paid it on the 911, of December last, and that cleared everything up to that date. His mother died on the lith of Decem ber, and be had since made his claim for the amount of his policy. When he called for the money he received his policy back, with the words " Not entitled to benefit—died while under eumpensiou, James Miller," written in blue pencil scream it. Mr. Martin, the chief clerk, said that it was a case of disputed lability, and the proper court to apply to would be the county court. Applicant thanked his worship, and said he would go to that court. LAMBETH. Among the applicatic;;;;TideZMr. Elliott was that of a mechanic who gave the name of Herb, and resides at Southausptomstrtet, Wandsworth-road. He stated that on Monday afternoon his little girl, named Emma Harb, was returning Lome with another little girl from the Oval National School, when they were accosted by a woman, who gave them two oranges each, and asked them to go with her. They at first refused, and the woman then said that she would give applicant's daughter M. for herself, and 3a. to take home to her mother if she (tie little girl) would show her to Blaokfriars. The other little girl left his daughter with the woman and went home. The magistra`e—Where was this? Applicant—Under the railway arch at Vauxhall cross. The magistrate—What time was it? Applicant—About four o'clock. Thu magistrate—Was there anything particular about the woman? Applicant—She carried a carpet-bag. The magistrate—You must go to the station-houae and the police will make inquiries into the matter. Applicant terying)-1 have been about all night to every atation•bouae and workhouse, but can find nothing of her. The inagiatrate—Do you think that she was taken away for the purpose of stealing her clothes? Applicant—Oh, no, pour child. I am afraid she has been decoyed away for some wicked purpose. The magistrate—You go to the station-house, and say I sent you. . . . The ipidicant then communicated with the police, and the following are the descriptions of the child and the woman by whom she was decoy,:d away : —The child is eight years of age, light complexion, brown hair, blue eyes, brown cotton dies., with yellow dowers, holland jacket, and black velvet hat. The woman is about 2.5 years old, 5 feet 6or 7 inches high, fresh complexion. black hair light cotton dress, black cloth shawl, with fri,.ge, bla:ck straw bonnet, trimmed with black ribbon and Sowers. THE PROSECUTION OF EX-GOVERNOR EYRE.. After our report left yesterday, Mr. Giffard proceeded to discuss separately the Mies of Phillips, Vimn, Levien, and Brace, contending that they were reasou.ibly suspected of high tremor), and that even if they were afterwards found to be inno cent (though be did not go the length of admitting that), it would no more justify these proceedings than, if Mr. Vaughan committed a person for trial for felony and he were acquitted, Mr. Vaughan could be proceeded against for committing him. It was clear that he would not be liable even if the person erroneously committed had been illtreated in prison. There might have been excesses or irregularities committed by subordinates during the con tinuance of mat tial law, which Mr. Eyre would regret as much as any one, and which perhaps, if his attention was willed to them, it might have been his duty to punish. But it could not be supposed that he was a sort of universal eye. seeing every detail of every occurrence, and it would be absurd to hold hint responsible for any one of those sets of cruelty and oppression on the part of per sons in positions of minor authority, which un happily were sure to occur in times of tumult and disorder, and for which those who CisUAed the disorder were really blameable. He contended that Mr. Eyre had acted with wisdom and justice, especially in hie prompti tude in dealing with the leaders, for he knew the negro character, sm. was aware that the people, though capable of much ferocity in organised outrages, were incapable of acting without leaders. He knew that the general popu lace would be easily reduced to peace and order when they saw their leaders executed, en I especially the wealthy and powerful instigators of the rebellion, who after leading them into it had sought to escape the con sequences, but had been brought to trial and deservedly punished. Mr. Eyre by his admirable promptitude, jus tice, and wisdom, had saved a valuable colony and pre served the lives f all the respectable inhabitants of the island, whether white or coloured. Mr. Gitfard was about to comment on certain statements of Mr. Eyre at the en quiry before the Royal Commission, when Mr. Vaughan pointed out that these passages were part of those which he had already decided were not evidence before him. _ _ . Mr. °HUH, with some warmth, contended that they were, and upon Mr. Vaughan declaring that be would not alter his decision on that point, Mr. Giffard sat down, observing that if that was the magistrate's opinion, he should not address him any further. Mr. Vaughan said he had listened with great attention to the arguments of Mr. Gifford, and he should have been glad if he could have thought it consistent with his duty to let the ease stop here. But, having heard all that had been advanced by Mr. Gifford, in his mess able address, he still felt it to be his duty to commit Mr. Eyre for trial. The question was one of law and of fact. As to the question of law, he considered himself bound imperatively by the well-considered and luminous charge of the Lora Chief Justice to the Middlesex grand jury in the case of Nelson and Brand. He should hold it to be the height of presumption in him, sitting here simply as conducting a preliminary investigation, to seek to lay down anything as an addition to, or gloss upon, the law as stated in that charge. With regard to the facts, Mr. Vaughan, after analysing them at some length, said they appeared to be such as ought to be submitted to the consideration of a jury. He therefore felt it to be his duty to commit Mr. Eyre to take his trial at the next Court of Oyer and Terminer at the Court of Queen's Beech, and than informed Mr. Eyre (with the usual caution) that if he wished to say anything in answer to the charge, now leas the time to say it. Mr. Eyre said that not upon him, but upon those who had brought him here, werild fall the disgrace, that a man who had served his country faithfully for twenty-six years, and for twenty years in positions of high responsibility, was now after two years and • half of unwearying and most rancorous persecution about to be committed to • felon's dock for having discharged his duty faithfully, to the best of his ability, and irrespective of personal con siderations, saving indubitably a great British colony from ruin, and the people from maineare, or worse than mas sacre. He did not envy the feelings of those who, con spiring to ruin a public officer, now at last succeeded in bringing this additional stigma upon him, but he did re joice in believing that they formed but a very small section of the community. [There was here a burst of applause at the back of the court which the officers of the court had some difficulty to suppress. One gentleman persisted in shouting " You are not alone ; I am in England !" till the ushers were obliged to put him out of the court.) Mr. Byre proceeded to say that he gloried in the confident belief that neitherthese views nor the magistrate's decision would influence, or be accepted by the higher tribunal to which thecae would now be referred, or by the large majority of his fellow-countrymen to whose common rinse and sense of justice be tient/drolly intruded his honour as a gentle man, and his character as a public officer. Mr. Byre, who exhibibid considerable agitation, es pecially towards the close °lbis observations, sat flown amidst renewed and tumultuous applause, again with dif ficulty suppressed by the officers of the court. Mr. Vaughan—Mr. gyro , you are bound in 1,0001. to appear to take your trial at the Court of Queen's Bench. The proceedings then terminated.
