Alock at night the Couttadjourned until ten o',:lock d l i s morning. Mr. Dniscor.l., K:C. - addritsed the Ciiurt in behalf tithe prisoner Henry Handoiieli. and'oecs Graham, for Whom he Was resisted. ,•• H e stated that tilts,.../ ind ictm e nt, containing two distinit charges, had teett sent to the Grand Jury, one or Which• they locked alto other, • and the other they foimd in such a maYs, or as to make it a nullity in point of law. As there was therefore no Charge in effect against the priso ners he moved that-tit& Lotelships would forthwith order them to be di:wharfed.. M ! . R. Jottzrarcrir, t.fonewed Mr. Driscoll, on the parr of'Mr. Feribes. He stated that the prisoner vas neirippre - trended until several days after the riot. did n fly from justice, "but was found at his ordinary avocations. The Learned Gentleman stated fat he was not aware .of the ulterior measure in . tended to be adopted by the Learned Attorney-Ge wend ; but as his client has been now confined for a Lang time, and as no charge now exists against him, h e prayed their Lordships to order his discharge. Mr. J. B. SCItIVEN followed at considerable length on the part of Henry Ranch. ich and Geo. Graham, and Mr. 13LACKBURNE, K. C. seconded him, on the part of Forbes, The ATTORNEY-GFNERAL then rase.--Ile stated, he had listened with great attention to the Counsel for the prisoners. It was not his intention to resist their discharge, if proper bail was tendered. Ile should, however, resist any application for an absolute discharge. lie might be pardoned for adverting to some of the circumstances connected with this extra ordinary case. After consulting with those with whom it was his duty to confer, he felt himself bound to order the committal of three persons, for a conspi racy to murder the Lord Lieutenant ; and he would have grossly compromised the trust reposed in him, as public prosecutor, if lie gave other advice. Go verned by the same line of conduct, he adopted the mitigated course of tending up bills for the minor ince. He never had a more embarrassitig duty to rcrform ; for iii following this course, he thought his' conduct would be steady questioned. He, fur one, felt no doubt of their guilt ; but still he preferred that the law shOuld rather be blamed for its mildness, than censured for its rigour ; after all, he strongly regretted lie did not proceed on the capital charge.— The life of the Lord Lieutenant, continued the At torney-General, was in imminent danger, a bottle was thrown at him, and a piece of wood . came near bit head. The outrage was such as to stain the cha. Satter of the whole People of Ireland with a clegteet of-ferocity and barbarism unparalleled iu the history of the country. a I hope," continued the learned and eloquent Gentleman, in a most impressiie man. . sert." I - hope the Grand Jury have - discharged their duty conscientiously ; if they have not, it lies between GOD and their consciences—their conduct is not Cog nizable by any human tribunal. The King's Attor ney-General has the same power as a Grand Jury,- c:io even supersede their functions; and, - by the blessing of Goo, it is my fixed determination to file 9fficio informations against all the persourcharged With this infamous conspiracy, on as early a day as possible in the next Term." Mr. Justice Moons then stated, that he had taken u:raiirid view of the informations sworn against the prisoners, and he felt no hesitation in snots, that if the evidence were believed, it fully went to establkh the facts of a conspiracy being formed to create 'w slot, -and of a riot occurring in consequence ; for him self he must say, that his astonishment was so great at the finding of the Grand Jury, that were he alone,. and the Law Officer of the Crown, not the prosecutor, he would have telt it his duty to have questioned them as to their reasons forcOming to such an extraordi nary decision. Such a course had been adopted in other cases by great and eminent men. The infor- . auctions, as he before said, contained such a chain o f evidence, th a t ft believed, the bills must have been found. He laiveirted greatly that the conscience of the Grand Jury did not allow them to have the bu siness brought to a public investigation ; and he felt convinced there was not a good man in the country, no mattes to what party he belonged, who did not wish to have it probed to the bottom. It was then ordered, that Mr. Forbes be bailed, himself in £I,OOO and two sureties in E. 500 each, to abide the result of a criminal inforniation to be filed against him, by the Attorney-General, lir the Court of King's Beath, in the nest Term ; and • the'other persons to And 'bail, theinsekes in ESOO, and two sureties in £lO3 each. fir the same purpose. Bail was instantly tendered for Mfr. Forbes in Court, but the Attorney-Grxral stated, that twenty-four hours notice must be served on the Crown Solicitors. The Term commences on the 42d of this month. TRIAL FOR RIBBONIUL QUA It RELL ING WORDS. " I am sorry to see you (in argument) Gentlemen." The Iri,h parenthesis for a fight. Reply--" It is all a nthunderstagding." The charge of administering illegal oaths having been established in evidence, Mr. Justice BURTON charged the Jury, who returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned Judge then sentenced him to be transported for life. Thomas Hughes, for administering wicked, ma licious, and unlit tul oaths, on the Ist of January, /822, tv a., put on his trial. Mr. GREENE opened the indictment—there were rine counts in it ; one of them charged the prisoner with having admintsteredillegai oaths to compel sun dry persons to obey the rules of an illegal commander. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in a long and able speech, which wa, followed by a buzz of admiration throng., the. Court, stated the nature and extent of the illegal Society of which the prisoner was charged with being a member. The objects of that Society,. and for which the parties had conspired together, pre to subvert the Constitution, the Laws, and the Government of the country. " From the evidence," raid the Attot ney-General, " you will learn with sur prise and regret, that a set of men are in existence, who have been base enough, foolish and wicked enough, to blaspheme the sacred name of the CREA tott; ot wretches daring and impious enough to abuse the great and reveled name of the living Gan, for purposes so base : you will have proof that these people had entered into a hellish bond, profaning everything sacred, and prostituting everything valua ble, for the purpose of making inroads on the solemn reverence due to GOD, and with,the absurd hope of overturning the Government of the Empire itself.— N O man is the land has a right to bind himself to a secret association, which may enable him to meddle with the laws, or comment on, or interfere in the :Administration of the country ; if a man takes* pri tite oath, for illegal purposes, no matter what de ign, no matter whAt the purposes, such act is, ac i*Pssiing to the common law of the land, a crime, fur such conduct is subversive of good . government, and totallyinsonsistettt with the well-hems Of 'Awry §teue. • • flontlenull, forwinn! , l'..lettNe •ntmah* 4 4 - 1. 4 '; 11144 '''. - • ~.

The pigs in the vicinity of Naples are so fat as to' be able to move only with difficulty; and several persons have been curious to learn in what manner this desideratum was obtained.
