He Itaci not ability, be said, to speak as matters of law, which the Learned Gentlemen possessed who sat in that Court, but he trusted the Judges would. hearkins with patience. The defendant read from the second volume of Mr. Justice Blackstone's Commenta ries; the passage which relates to esofficio informations He phinted out the passagowbich states that the er-oll ciernformations must be tried by a petit jury of the coanty, where the offence is committed. ' Mr:JOstite BAYLEY informed the defendant, that an Act of Parliament bad pawed. which made it lawful to try cases of misdemeanour coming before the Court upon information by a Special jury. - Waddington.—Then, my Lord, I will speak upon the contradiction at the trial. .The witnesses were perjured. 1 haie heard Baron Wood e... -- Yr .. an d when ever . completely your jury Lord represented libel. .a an pot be -el bee ,abt mezderer . were Act of s ll * *ere radii, fia ei sad Tole. deny the the Lord Jesu Vaita that of the Paella- 4eoyleg the sooty, to. - repeal that Parliamentary provision, but they left the com mon law as it stood before.

Mr. Jesting henna-'li does not appear there is any foundation for msew trial.

Mr. Justice Houtoro--I costar ie the- spines re pressed by my Brother Bayley. It seems to me, that the, Work the Jury made inquiryahont was clearly libellous, and that what the Lord Chief Justice said was right There was abundant evidence to prove the defendant was concerned in this publication. It appears that he kept a part of the shop, and there is so doubt the sale was con retied by him. • '• Mr. Justice Be/T.—The fru Minelleis here Is, whether the Jury are warranted i 3 the oonstrediiii put on the defend ant's conduct. The question left to dieJsry wee, whether the defendant was the seller of this libeler meta • ins.y opi nion there was evidence on which the Joer.eieseileilded to eximmi finding the defendant golity,a od we camel tbp verdict. fam of opinion if the Jury bad not = defendant on. this evidence, it would be impossible any et co”ld be brought to justice for a blasphemous palladium. This is an extremely bungling attempt to obtain it awe trial. la the first place the defendant occupies a shop below. sad a room above, where the machinery is set at work. The de fendant Is seen below, and it is Itaposeible to eltt i r= la his window was not an invitadoe to hey blasphemous books. They are told to come into the sleep wherribe defeodent is standing; and It la for the defendant to show he was sot the seller of these books. He does set prove who sold the books, and I have so doubt be was the segue who sold the book. The Jery, is my opleies; did right is lading him geilty.

The Lord ester Juretcs then asked the delesdaet wimp thee he had any thing to say In mitigation of punishment? Waddington said. although be stood before the Court for judgment, he was Dot disheartend. - He knew there was a bar at which the Judges themselves most one day answer for their conduct. Perhaps it might be said to sine—" I'll cut him off who slandereth his neighbour privily."—lt would be said to them as in St Mathew— *, Depart from me ye cursed, into everlasting fire," le. be. Many_ would feel the wrath to come, if they did sot de justice and give the poor fair play with the law eft/se laud.

He was sore tbe defendant bad so posed to complain elf lieleg noder any hardship on his trial. He bad teen most hnmaneiy treated. Every thing . he had to urge was at tended to by the Joey, and no interroptios but been h ollered. With rrepect to the nature of the charge, it was quite impossible any . two could differ. This mu only part of the prosecution against the publication of the libel. Carlisle was convicted of publishing the very passages found in this record. A more infamous used blasphemons libel was never read t and if what the defendant said about the increase of cirv•alation was true, it justified the prosecution. The defendant was not ignorant of the character of the publication, because in One of his placards in the window, he described it to be a blasphemous publication. Here tbe 'defendant stated, this the assertion of the Solicitor General wqs not true. - The Sohicieoe.Gsmattah read the placard in the fol lowieg terms:—.. This is to give 'notice, Samuel W .. dington does not sell spy thing seditious and bias mous: but he has a strong suspicion that somebody u his ,roof does." To what could that refer but to the work solehie the defendant's shop. With respect to the prosecution, considerable time elapsed before they wore able to put as end to the pablication. , In eonseqesoce of the notoriety of the defendant's conduct, it became the subject of general conversatlee, and the Attorney- General coneidered it his duty to put so end to it. They had made great efforts for the purpose of putting dews liters fahilleet, and the hope was, they should at last succeed in suppressing what the public at large consi dered a terrible grievance. The Judges then consulted on the quantum of punish ment, Mr. Justice BATLEY. delivering the judgment of the Court, gave the defendant some credit for not dmiyile is his affidavit that he here of the peblicetion, Self - tormented in the profits. Every malt was at liiiiff thick adju dge for himself upon religiOus points. and discuss religious matters, but the libel was not a diem! sion but a declamation, describing the Bible as a work of indecency and immorality. It was not a discussion on doctrinal points but a work isjurioas to manners and morale. Whenever cues of this sort bad come wider Isdieiel consideration there had never been but ens opt don on the enbject. They had invariably treated books ssf this description as libels, and he bad no hesitation in ellyitig the bookiii question was a libel. It was declared a Bbel in the case of Carlile. The defeodant bad•quoted as from a book the Court held in 'reverence, and admit of their oath they endeavoured to act up right in the discharge of their duty, so that they toight be prepared t• stand before that tribeeel to which the defendant hail allnded. The Court, taking into coed &ration all the circumstance/. ordered the defeedeet, for the offooce, to be imprisoned In the Hones of I,?lit faction, Colt Bath fields, one year, and to And anreff fp for his goal behaviour for five years, himself in INK and two others in 541:. each. The defendant .inked the Court to make au order to allow him pee and ink in prison. end for his preludes against ill usage. , Mr. Justice liaetatv said the Court bad no power to make any pledge. The keeper would, no doubt, do his. duty, withont unnecessary severity. I:addiogton.—" I will bow with pleasure to the dr cisien of this Court when the Bishop of Clogher is brought to justice." .
