Mr. O'Costritti. was then proceeding to argue, that Defendant was entitled to an acquittal, when Mr. Cullen interrupted him, and stated his wish that he should. by evidence, shim to the Cou►t and the public his innocence of the charge. ea he had been much injured in his character and busi ness, by reasuu of the accusetious advanced against him. Mr. O'Comaint, stated Mr. Cullen's request, but positively declared to the Court that he did uot, nor could he, es Mr. Cullen's Counsel, waive his right to an acquittal without going further iote the case. Mr. Cullen proceeded in his evidence. Joseph Boyce, F. , q. of the firm of Boyce, Maks. and Boyce, proved the importation of a chest of Bohr* tea by Alarch ►ales, IBM direct from Lon. don, the vale of it to Cullen at I Id. per lb. cash price. and its not being adulterated in his possession. James Culleu, the shop-boy of Defendant, a re. spectable lad, proved tine chest of tea comisig in to Defendant's, from Boyce, Bioko, and Boyce, iu its original package; his opening it, and fill ing out of it the ca tttt ister of tea ►eized, and its never been adulterated up to the time of seizure; that Cullen never bought tea from any person in the shop unless by giving orders to mer chants, salesmen, or clerks, and gave the most posi tive and slisi;:ict evidence that Cullen never di. redly or indirectly bought or sold, or permitted to be bought or sold, any spurious or fabricated lea. - - Then Mr. Cullen examined Mr. Turhott, a most respectable merchaut, and in the tea trade for the last thirty-five years, who inspected a sample of the tea seized, and swore it was common Bolus tea. He was corroborated in this by Messrs. Dorman, Fot terill, Rooney, and Boyce, all merchants, of many years experience iii the tea trade; and then Mr. Bardoti, the surveyor, and Mr. Garland, the gauger of the district in which Cullen lives, stated their having examined the tea in the cannister, which was in a few days afterwards so seized, and all the other teas iu Cullen's house, and did not seize it, as they considered it genuine tea, VIM gave an ex. celleut character of Cullen, and their having no complaint against him during their time in that that pict.

This being part of their original case, Mr. PRR• RI N argued that it was contrary to 14w and Kee,- dent to allow a Prosecutor or Plaintiff to go into evidence. which formed part of his original ease, after a Defendant had gone direngli his defence. Mr. GRADY, for the frown. replied at great length, and insisted the Croon had a right to go into any evidence they might think necessary, at any stage of the proceedings.
