A labs edition d the Express it published every evening during the racing season, containing the results al the day's nem N ILIT to the Loan MATOlell triumph over poor Mr. Worrwr Wool), no political victory has been made en much of by the Tory press as the defeat of Mr. MokIUSON by Mr. Anntworow, at Plymouth. slow the conversion of the once liberal borough had been brought about, who deserved the credit of it, and what precise place it would hold in the history of the "glorious Cooservative reaction," were questions keenly debated, and at length satisfac torily solved. In fact, we were in • fair way to net • full philosophy and literature of the subject, when an accident intervened which we fear must cut them short. The election took place yester day, when the voters placed the liberal candidate at the head of the poll, in the old routine way, as if nothing had happened. We have no philosophy to offer on the occasion—nothing but the com monplace remark that this election shows that constituents long known as liberal will be found liberal still when • fitting candidate presents him self. Plymouth has pined • valuable represen tative in Mr. Moainnow, and the House of Com mons a good member. TIME is something infectious in the freshness of a young life, and yesterday even the musty haunts and purlieus of the Law confessed its gra cious influence. The dingy courts were decked with seek flowers as still hang round the robe of departing summer, the way was guarded by the choicest ranks of that youthful army which has dedicated itself to the safety of its country, the halls were thronged with the learning and the beauty of the land, when the Hope of England enrolled himself successively as a Student and • Master of that science which assures our liberties and our rights. Four countries and a half have passed away since a Prince of WALLS gave a proof and happy omen of that subjection of the Throne to the Law which has preserved both invio late ; and the story of Prince Hai. and Chief Justice flaseovwx, made more illus. thous by our greatest poet's genius, still forms the first lesson in constitutional lore which we teach our children, and embodied in pictorial art decorated the chamber where the Sovereign " sits " highest in her royal estate." The petulance of a madcap Prince is not likely in these more sober days to call for judicial rebuke, but the recogni tion of the higher majesty of he law once made by submission to its authority is now not ungrace fully recalled by a Prince taking upon himself the rank of one of its chief ministers. Long indeed may it be ere he comes to hold his mother's place, and in her room become, in the language of lawyers, the Fountain of Justice ; but when that time shall come—a• in the course of nature it must—we may feel assured that the stream will not be muddied by the early token of respect for thee cience of Law given by the Heir of the realm accepting the proffered fellowship of those who have won their way to its highest honours. But violent contrasts quickly pall, and the thoughts of the beholders probably soon wan dered from the strangeness of the spectacle of youth and age, flowers sad legal tomes, Benchers' wigs and ladies' bonnets, so oddly mingled, to the thought of that future which lies within the young brows of the new-made Barrister and his nearest contemporaries. Shall the England of their days —of the days when the humblest students shall reach, by dint of that hard toil which they ham taken to be their lot in this life, tho rank which their Pain e ban leaped to in 'mingle hour, be like the England of our days—shall law then be se severe • study, as exacting • mistress, as full of snares to the unwary, and of pusales even to the learned, as she is nowt Shall justice always be as hard to gain, and honesty always in such danger? Let us hope sot. Yew happy reflections come into the mind as we look round the walls of such a heel Library se that which hes just been inaugu rated. How little of all that hearshw has been given to the endeavour to find out bow to do justly ; how mash has bona spent in merely teaching how to state a case so as to permit it to be judged at all. It is issabling enough to think that five hundred years' study of law have only served to bury it under these groaning shelves, and that every year has made it worse for plain common sense to find out what law directa, worse even for a lawyer to know what counsel to give. But in the England of our future lienchers something of this may be amended. Even this day a thousand statutes, oboe tete, exhausted, superseded, vanish from the Statute book. This day come info operation the Ann fruits of our Codification of Law, in the Consoli dated Criminal Statutes. We may be allowed to indulge in the happy prognostication of more of such benefits to come, under the auspices of a Pauses w hese Brit day of membership of the Society of the Law has been thus fortunately dis tinguished. We may dare to think of a time when no deeper study than it is said he has already given shall make the ' THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 1, 1861. subjects of England masters of the law of England —of a time when technicalities, fictions, useless and incomprehensible forms, shall disappear--when judgment shall be given only according to justice, and plain truth shall always be able to make its voice heard. Here is a work for the contemporaries of our new Barrister to do --a work than which none is nobler, none more beneficent, none richer in the promise of fame— • work in which each one of them may help, by doing no more than not opposing its advance. - - Over such • work as this we may well believe hovers the blessing invoked by the solemn reli gious service with which the ceremonial of yester day was concluded. Not on a law of quibbles and conceits, not on a law of lazy or timid patchwork, can such blessing rest ; but on a law which shall indeed do justice to the poor and needy, on • generation resolute to wipe from it, so far as in them lies, the stains of human imperfection, and to render it most nearly the reflex and adaptation of that Divine law which is planted in our consciences and revealed in the Holy Book. On a PRINCE dedicating his young life to the study of what belongs to the happiness and prosperity of his future subject., was such blessing well besought. So viewed it was the meet con clusion of the event of the day. In the dim light of the old Temple Church each incongruity of the preceding scene found its reconcilement. In that presence, standing on the stones that vault the dead, beneath the slender arches which the faith of our ancestors raised, before the altar at which mail-clad warriors worshipped, age, rank, beauty found a common bond of equality. There could live no thought, thence ascend no prayer, but that each one present might do his duty as the dead below had done, as England expects still her sons to do, with arm or brain, with valour or tenderness, with vigour or patience, according as the work might lie to the hand of each to do. So passing forth again from that solemn service and the chequered shades within to the sunshine and martial music without, the pageant had gained new significance, the Temple Courts smiled fitly on the gay autumn flowers and the bright eyes of ladies, the bayonets of the Volunteers were not inappropriately piled beneath the windows of the Library, the learned sages of the coif mingled sympathisingly with the unbearded students of the First Term. So pleasantly ended a great day for the Temple, and, we may well hope, a day not to be unnoted in the history of England. THE caw of Mile JOLLY is one which it was practically impossible for any jury to consider calmly. Even for those who read the report of the trial at a distance it is difficult enough to preserve equanimity. But, in the midst of a crowded court, to hear, from the lips of the victim herself, the tale of so barbarous an outrage as that which was undoubtedly perpetrated upon Mies JOLLY, a girl of nineteen, by a brutal Irish cabman, must have roused the indignation of the meet phlegmatic philosopher who ever adorned the bench. It is needless to remind us that the Irish are an excitable and chivalrous nation ; for even in London, if it were found that a young lady could not be put into a cab by her brother, after hear ing Mr. Srveoson on the Gorilla, in order to be taken home to Camberwell, without being driven up some dark lane, brutally assaulted, driven to seek refuge in a ditch up to her neck in water, and finally be compelled to seek shelter in some neigh bouring cottage, it would be difficult to exaggerate the popular indignation against the perpetrator of such an offence. Nor is it improbable that a de sire to find him out not less intense than that manifested in Dublin would be manifested here. In Dublin no class of the community has been more eager in their zeal to discover the real cul prit than the cab proprietors ; and they have, it seems, earned general applause for the mode in which they aided the police in their inquiries. It is said, however, that notwithstanding this they have also secretly subscribed a considerable sum of money for the defence of any cabman who might be arrested, and that this is the fund which has supplied the man CVREAN with the means of pre paring his defence. By some this conduct seems inconsistent. Ingenious Hibernian', with that deficiency of logic which characterises them, dis cover in this the features of an " Irish Bull." They find it difficult to reconcile a sincere desire to discover the real criminal with probably the equally sincere and rational desire to give the moused man, whoever he may be, the benefit of • fair trial. To an impartial observer the course pur sued by the cab proprietors of Dublin must appear singularly sensible ; for if ever there was • case in which an accused man required the best legal aid, it must be in • case such as this, which has ex cited so much popular feeling. It is needless to repeat the details of the suffer ings endured by Miss Jour, although it is impair Ibis to praise too highly the heroic conduct of the young lady in such circumstances as, it may be hoped, few ladies will ever have to meet. By what must be considered as a daring act of treachery, this Irish cabman, with the distinct in• tention of gratifying his lust, drove his victim into a lonely place, and there again and again, with persevering brutality, attempted to effect hie purpose. The fact that an outrage was committed upon Mim Jour by a cabman upon the 27th of last September is ad mitted. The only question is who did it I Joan MILIAN is supposed to have been the man. He bee been convicted by the jury, and he has been sentenced to two years' imprisonment with hard labour. But it must be admitted that the evidence upon which the jury arrived at their conclusion rests entirely uponthetestimony of Miss JoLzy. Both her brother and the man who spoke to her in the road had an opportunity of seeing the cabman, but the former would not undertake to swear to the iden tity of Culiass, and the other person was not to be found—at all events he did not appear at the trial. There was, indeed, an unfortunate girl who said that upon the night in question she saw Miss JOLLY get into the cab, knew the cabman, and identified him se Cumin. But it was clearly established that, instead of being is Dublin on that ' evening, she was in the Holyhead steamer, and for this gross perjury she has been committed for trial. It is natural to suppose that L the Crown must have considered some evidence corroborating Miss JOLLY of very serious importance, or they would hardly have either offered the reward which they did offer or brought forward the girl %% um as their chief wit uses. To attempt to strengthen the evidence of such a witness as Miss Jou.; whose veracity was so unimpeachable, by a wretched lying creature who lived upon the street, showed suspicion of a weak case or a strange want of discretion. Even if this poor girl had come forward of her own accord to give evidence, her proffered evidence ought to have been sifted with the utmost jea lousy before it was accepted, but when the offer of a pecuniary reined had silenced every scruple such caution was doubly necessary. Upon the whole, it may, perhaps, turn out that the system of offering rewards is a mistaken system, and that whilst it is almost sure to increase perjury, it is' not effectual for the purpose of extracting fresh proofs to detect crime. We repeat, therefore, that the fact as to whether CURRAN was or was not the guilty cabman de pends entirely upon the evidence of Miss JOLLY. Now, it is admitted that the night was dark and rainy—that Bliss JOLLY did not discern his fea tures before she got into the cab—and that his voice did not enable her to identify him. Never theless, it must also be admitted that the young lady, whose evidence was given in the most straightforward manner, and whose single desire certainly was to tell the truth, swore most posi tively that Crane was the man. According to her statement, his appearance had made such an impression upon her that she could not be mis taken. It is impossible not to consider Miss JOLLY'S evidence as of much more weight than that of the friends and relations of the cabman, who swore with pardonable unanimity that he was home at the very time the assault was being perpetrated, more especially as their evidence was in direct contradiction to that of CURRAN'S employer, Mrs. CONNOR, that upon the evening in question he did not come home until after eleven o'clock. But setting this aside, it requires a belief in Min Jour's evidence as to the identity of CURRAN in order to justify the conclusion at which the jury have arrived. It is said, indeed, that the terror which possessed her would fix the imago of the man indelibly on her mind. In broad day, and under other circum stances, this might be so. But in a dark night, with her whole energies engaged in repelling the assaults of a ruffian, with her face sometimes covered with his hands and her throat sometimes in his gripe, it is somewhat difficult to be quite satisfied that the mind so agitated would be able to scrutinise very accurately the features of the assailant, or that the memory would retain a dis tinct impression of his countenance, and under cir cumstances so unusual the imagination would be supernaturally active ; nor should it be forgotten that the imagination of a woman in inch circum stances is peculiarly vigorous. There can be no doubt that Min JOLLY was naturally and very properly anxious beyond measure to detect the man who had so grossly maltreated her, and the interest which the public had shown in her case would not diminish her anxiety to bring him to justice. It would be a mistake to say that in acting upon the uncorroborated evidence of Mile JOLLY as to identity the jury adopted a mistaken conclusion. If the circumstances of the case had been less interesting and exciting, they might, perhaps, have hesitated to convict. Neither in Ireland nor in England is it possible to do anything more than absolutely acquit or absolutely convict. But had it been possible to adopt the Bench system of returning a verdict of not proven, it may appear to some that the interests of justice would have been sufficiently maintained. As matters now stand, and if Joss CURRAN be the real culprit, it is idle to imagine that the punish ment affixed to his crime will prevent the recur rence of such barbarism. Crimes of this stamp deserve penalties much more severe. PLYMOUTH ELECTION.

The announcement of the verdict in the above earns was received without any maniestation of feeling save a alight murmur of approval, which proceeded from the greater number of the respectable people in the body of the court. IFF r. us O'Brien then pronounced sentence as follows ; —John Curran, after a very full and patient investigation of your ease, which has lasted for several days, and during which the various grounds that could be relied upon either for proving your guilt or entitling y ou to • verdict of acquittal !ewe been ea fully eonsidered—after all the wit nesses that were produced on your behalf have been exa mined so fully, and en much attention given to their evidence, the jury, ootwithstandiug, have found you guilty. I have so recently expressed my opinion of the euorwity of the crime of which you have been convicted, that it is unnecessary for me to repeat it ; but this much 1 must add, that where • person is convicted of such • crime—still more , where the person convicted is in the class of life to which you belong—a class in whom such trust and confidence is re posed by the public, awl who have so many opportunities of betraying that trust, and of attempting to indict injuries extreme upon the wefts committed to their care—when, I say, • primmer is coavioted, after a full investigation of his case, of such • crime as that, it is the opinion of the court that to impose Less than a severe and ample puoishnient—the greatest that the law enables us to indict—would not be con sistent with our duty to the laws which we adminster, or to the public, who are so deeply interested in the prevention of such crimes as this. Recollect the rituritiou in which you now stand. Recollect the situation in which you would have ' stood if the admirable and extraordinary heroism of that young lady had not prevented the perpetration of your in tended crime. If you had perpetrated the odium whiohyou have been charged with intending, at one period—sod not • very remote one in our history —you would have paid with your life the peuelty of your guilt. At present if you had committed the crime which you are charged with having in tended, penal servitude for life you would have been liable to bare undergone. It is for the young lady herself provides'. dal and a blessing—it is for you a blessing that diesticomded upon that occasion in frustratiug the purpose for which the assault was isommitted. The utmost penalty allowed by the law for as offence such as yours, is unprisooment for two years with hard labour ; and having due regard to the admi nistration of justice and to the security of the public, sod to deter persons in your statioo from ever attempting or think ing of such a crime, it is the duty of the court to pronounce that sentence which I now pees upon you, of two years' imprisonment, with hard labour. The primer". who received the sentence with apparent indifference and usoonown, was then removed.

The Temps drily observes that the declaration that the Moniteur is the ouly official journal is made for the twentieth time since the empire has existed. The Patric observes that it is not personally referred to by the Monitcur, because there have been no recent changes in its staff of writers. M. Delamarre, it takes leave to say, is not in the same position as Dr. Veron, because he (M. Delamarre) is the sole proprietor of the Petrie, and is not subject to dismissal.
