The Learned Joisiee 'recapitulated many of the !endow motets of his charge with resin et to Mr. Hunt; they had evidence of hi• being at Suiedlet Cottage on the rye of Ow intended meeting at Mancloesti r out the 9 August, that he had that day mineralised himself in trims nut very reepecifid of the 'seal Maaistrecy; he was out 'mired footed at Oldham, at Leede or at Usury, he was et Manches ter, and had given two evidence respecting the its solutions which it was meaut to propose at the ineetiug that had beta broken up. Mr. Hunt—May I sebmit, my Lord, that the Resolutions intended to he proposed at that swoon were solicited by Nadu, out if knight's hands, when the yeomanry came up ,to the 'totality, ; we have since made every effort to obtain them, bat without effect, mid have served an order ow the Prosecutor to proolowe them, as order which your Lordship sees has been disregarded. Mr. Justice Belmar resumed his charge—He said that with reference to Johnress, it appeared he had gone from Bel lack Sonitlwy to Manchester, with Mr. Hoist ; he had ap peared with him 0/ the hustings, whether seconding is, a previous concert, and fur an illegal object, the Jury, accord ing to their cilustructioni of the evidence, must 'treble. As to the case of Muorhouse, there was evidence if atoll less participation. He was not on the htistiotes, if the evidence adduced nn his behalf were to he credited. Wherever there appeared doubt of criminality of intention, ghoul,' they decide upon fixing on any of the parties the guilt of any of the cultists in the indictment, the safe coarse for the July to poste would be in record a verdict of acquittal. Swift was on the hustings', but there was no proof of his be hoe criminally engorged there, and fur an illegal purpose, it his witnesses statements were correct. Against Hesly there was the black deg, if they inferred any criminality from that emblem. 'the inscription it bore was as (unions :—" No Boroughmongers ; Unite and be Free; Equal Repo...sesta tion or Death ; Eadillewurth, lava, and Mosley ; No Corn Laws ; Taxation without Representation is • Unjust anal Tylannical." If these devices were, as he repeated, calculated, front their nature, to exile in the muds of the people hatred and contempt of the Authuri le • of the Stale, then they were certainly illegal, and the parties bearing them slid cuticula ing in them, 'meltable to Ilw law for their conduct. With respect to Ranifurol, who I retried the Middle flag, nothing could be more decent *ban his routine, throughout the whole of the day. the account given by the eititesses lie adduced be a correct sle scriptiou of it, he was every where described as recommend loth .peace and order. Theo emote the dap with the mottoes " Unity sod Strength," Liberty or Death." Now these were. like the others, immortal or culpable according to the atomising affixed to them by those who brought and con : muted in brincing them he field. If that unity and elreeefA would overawe the laws, ens the ineautim attached, then it erasion illegal emblem. /lumber party was led up by Wyld, but what their banners were slid nut appear in evidence. Junta merely post up the hustings, and whatever else he bad dune appeared, according to the evidence, as of little importance; he reessainteuded what budy would wish to see adopted, namely, union and harmuity. The Learned Judge was then owes more about to revert to the Smithfield Regulations, when— , 'Mr. Hunt begged leave, with great defense', to submit his Lordship, whether • 121/141010, who merely reetwiewiL: Seth Resulutiens at the mental of the nereliug, situ possibly without kis concurrence in their formation, ought to be held so strictly responsible fur their Residents? Mr. Justice BAYLaw—The law impious upon a man so acting the responsibility to which I allude. I have in my charge, Mr. Hunt, dame fairly by yin, in putting to the Jury those eirctometamcer which may bear in your favour, as well aa those whisk may have • contrary operation. I have done ea! hope impartially, I know conscientiously; aid I so lemity declare, that if this were to be the teat mumeut of my life, I should charge as I have now charged. The Learned Judge then proceeded to refer to the evidence, Laud to enforce upon the miods of the Jury, that the main question they hail to try was, whether the meeting was or was not, according to its manner, calculated to produce ter ror, either in the manlier in which it was formed, or ite the scircunistaisces that ensued before its dispers' . If they thengist it was so constituted or conducted, then the parties, with that view attending it, were trammel, and the Jury would specially record the species of coiminality they attri buted to them. The Lraraed Judge concluded thus: s• You, I have so doubt,' have considered throughout this .arduous lend, and with patient atieation seitrbed the evi • dunce on both sides. Setween the Defendants and the . public, I know you will impartially suit justly judge, hying aside, as I implore you to do, all coissideralems of party or prejudice which may prevail elsewhere, and give your verdict, as you upon your solemn moths are bound to do, upon the evidence alome. I have only owe observation more, api I peremptorily require attention to it out of re spect to the Court, and out of deference to the laws, when your verdict is given, be it one of Guilty or Nut Guilty, I ov ertire that no symptom of approbation or dies pprobs tiou shall be uttered within these walls; nay such denionstiationt of feeding ism high contempt of Ibis Coke, and calculated to subvert the principles on which Juries rhombi always set. U • Jade or Jury shim ever set on the popular effect which any particular decision may create, or travel out of the evidence before them to form their opinion, their COO. duct would mot only be highly erroneous, but must criminal. Find no Defendant guilty, Gentlemen, whose guilt is nut in your minds clearly established by the evideuce—find au De fendamt immernt, if you think the evidence eslabliehes his guilt , wh a doubt arises, the Defeudant ought to have the benefit of it." At a quarter past twelve o'clock, the Learned Judge closed his Charge, and the Jury related. Shortly before five o'clock the Jury returiird into the box. The Foreman held a paper its his hand, and said the Jury hod agreed upon their verdict, which he, read as follows : Nfooanouse, JONES, %VYLD, SWIFT, rand SAXTON—NUT GUILTY.

Mr. Justice BAYLEY—Do you mean that they themselves intended to incite ? The Foreman—Yes. Mr. LITTLEDeLS—This verdict must be taken on the North count. Mr. Justice BATLEY—Let the verdict be so re . corded. Yon find. Gentlemen, nu such counts orts the words of your verdict are applicable to. You do not mean to find that they created terror, or in. cited it in the uttuds of the liege subjects of the King ? Tne Foreman—We meant. my Lord, to bud on the first cuout, omitting a few words.

The Jury withdrew fisi • few minutes. end re: turned with • verdict of Guilty generally on the North count. and Not Guilty uptis the remaining counts., Mr. Justice BAiLEY—I take it for granted the Defendants are still under recognizance ?

Mr. Justice BAT Leir—You owe me no thanks for doing that which was my duty, nor iu what I say to you do Ido more than state a fact, I du not mean a civil expression. . _ _ Mr. Hunt—lf I move the Court of King's Bench for a new trial, I suppose, my Lord, the Defendants who are acquitted tired not attend, though the indictment charges a conspiracy ? Mr. Justice BAYLEY—I cannot advise; hat there was • ease in Surrey ; I forget the name ; I'll recollect it directly. Ills Lordship then tamed round to the Jury, and said, they told hi. best thanks for the patient atteni they had bestowed upon this arduous trial. He was ►ery much obliged to them. Then facing the body of the Court, his Lordship added, I very much •plrrnve of the conduct of the Court at the time the verdict was given its; alluding, we presume, to the universal silence which pievailrd at the time. It was near six o'clock before the Court broke up. Mr. Hunt was cheered as he went home to his lodgings. He maintained to the last his wonted composure, and there was • calmness and respectful decorum in his manner at the close of the trial which excited much sympathy for his situation. I-UGH TREASON. MIDDLESEX SESSIOI/141011SE, CLEREENSVELL, Toss'sAv, Mum' SS.

Mr. Justice BAY Ley concluded his charge at twenty minutes pest twelve on Monday. Tile Jury then withdrew. arid after • deliberation of five hours returned is verdict of Guilty on the fourth count against tive of the Defendants, viz. HRNRY HUNT, JOSETIC JOHN•ON, JOSEPH HEALY, SAMUEL. BAMFORD. and Joins KNIGHT. The words of the verdict On this could, us delivered by the Ju►y, are—'• Guilty of assembling toith unlawfitl banners as tinlatotn! meeting, for the purpose of heeding hatred and con tempt in the sands of the liege stehjects of our toed the King of the laws and eonstitution of this realm as by low established, and of attending the santp.'• The JUDGE, on receiving this verdict, said, You do not then mean to charge the Defendants with the conspiracy. nor with the inciting terror ?" The Jury answered, " No." The remainder of the conversation which passed between Mr. timer at..! the COURT will be found in our report. From it we presume that lie means to bring the verdict be fore the Court of King's Bench. On all the other counts there was a verdict of Not Guilty. The five other Defendants wereacquitted upon all the rooms. Mr. HU NT. or. hearing the verdict of guilty against him on the fourth count, did not betray the slightest emotion and in the conversation that ensued, Ms pl.yed the same composure ■nd respectful de meanour that marked his conduct throughout the whole of this arduous and protracted trial. The set se of that demeanour is well expressed in the language of the Judge. when expbeining to hint the nature of the new recogroirence required of in consequence of the Verdict until next Term. when he will be brought up for judgment. It was stated repeatedly and emphatically by the Learned Judge, who displayed such exemplary patience. temper, and firmness daring the trial, that the re sult does not at all affect the question of the con duct of the Manchester Magistracy and yet. manry in forcibly dispersing that meeting.— The Learned Judge took particular care through out to limit the inquiry to the conduct of the people up to the precise moment of the inter ference of the military. Lord Mit.vort was, there fore, well justified when, in answer to an observa tion of Mr. STUART WORTLEY at the last county election, his Lordship emphatically de clared, that be the Defendants then on trial guilty or not guilty, still the integral case of the Manchester Magistrates and yeoManry remained altogether untouched. The trial excited a great sensation at York, and has given to Mr. HUNT a great degree of populatity. In that sporting dis trict the result was the subject of extensive betting, in which the odds were in favour of the Defendants to the last. From York it was said Mr. HUNT was to proceed to Lan caster, to prefer fresh bill. iqrainst the Man , cheat er Magistrates and yeomanry, grounded, it is r Y
