'nu mind 'vhielt was not depraved like that of the Author and Pub lisher, must be satisfied that this Libel .was themost ~ subversive of the Constitution, algid destrut'„tiVe to Society, which the malignity of man could invent and circulate. It was the most foul and slander-, OW in personalities which could, be directed against - some of the most exalted Men in the Country—men who were deservedly esteemed for purity of clime- ter; and, eminent on account of , the high.efficial'si tuations in which their Sovereign had been graciously , pleased to appoint them. Made,. however, 0 the • Defendant had indulged himself' in the foulness of . personality, and gratified his tnidignity with the bitter- '1 ness of invective agann:t the nnotiending objats of ' his calumny and revenge, yet his main design W.it , to . , revile and degrade the whale system of His 'Majesty's Government, and to excite the discontent of the Irish people, by making them believe that the. Ad.lators, minisiaa tion was corriposed oppressors, pecu of and bloodsuckers. Snell was the repre,en tat ion ' brw bleb the Learned Judge'hoped to moi e the. people to'dis content, sedition, and perhaps. ultimately to the des perate resohltion of avenging their supposed wrongs by it surreCtion and treason, Whatan abuse of intelleo stud perversion' of unden:hiading, What a prostitution of those factiities'whiCh dignity the hum3ll mind, and confer.ascendancy on inch; have We seen developed in the wicked contrivance-of this abominable plan fOr 4reducing persons, wheseonlieritne, in the eyes of the 'Defendant, could be' the 'favour of their Sovereign ! 'Elio It was, that,they had been raised by. the Royal benefficence to offices of the highest trust imdrespon sibility. , But surely the appointment of the King to such situations was the . best proof that they merited tilt:confidence of H iv:Majesty, and were fu lly adequate to discharge t he duties they had assumed. .Experience, however, proved, that such were the meanness and inveterate malice of some men; that they never could contemplate rewardeitmerit, exalted. rank, or the Sue cess' of taleots, Without being corroded by envy • and _ agonized by feeling spite and jealousy. This was a . tribute due from all great wen tolow, cunning, milli clans and grovelling.miods. It could' not be expeiSted„ therefore, that those objefts of Royal condescension and preference should escape unnoticed by Ju v,ernti i no; theircharader was too conspicaous and a ttraCti ve, their merit was too' well known and generally ' ac- , knowledged, for him to miss the opportunity of blasting their fair fame, and publishing a libel-- 4 Anst whom . ? against the Lerd Eieuteleint (it Ire , land, who represented the awilil chiral er of Ma jesty, 'and discharged the duties. of that high situation.

The fourth and last pet named , in the indietment; who became the objeft of his abuse; calemny,And defamation; was , Mr. Marsden, Under Secretary of State in the Civil .Department to his Excellency, the Lord Lieutenant. This Gentleman was also: at the head of the, Pollee, and entitled td , re-' spent, not only from the important official situations • which he filled with advantage to the Country, . b u t likewise to 'esteem And respe& (in account of his PVivate worth,and thegehe r al ma . it ode . of his conduct. Those Werethe Is - aroblerneti disci Gentlemen whom the Defenant seleeled „for hismelignity,and charged with iiteapitk to discharge their important duties. Those, Gentlemen of the Jury, were the, high and important persons whonf , he accused' of corruption, peculation, and oppression, in their ditThrent departments. But, in order to accomplish his 'wicked desien of exciting the discontent Of the People;' it 'necceisery for him; as already stated, to 'degrade the Government ; and the 'Defendant knew that nothing could so ef-, fet:tually advance, his objea,.end accelerate its execu-' tion, as to. Make the People helieVe that the fountain' of Justice B%'S polluted; th:it the laws which setur-; I eel the person and property of the Subject could be bop ht and sold and, iirtme, that the distributors of . Justice were corrupt and venal in everydepartment— 'that the whole' System of GovernMent was condudted and adMinistered by the most profligate and rapacious persons'whO had ever disgraced any country. For this purpose it was that Mr. Justice . Osborne 'had been represented as tampered with by the Crown in a criminal Arial, and Seleeled,' as it were; for that purpose!, though a junior Judge. The Defendant also, in stating this calumny, did not fail to exercise his" ingenuity •against the Goveminent&in a fulsome compliment to the- Judges, whom .he.supposed insulted by thistap pointment. a 'Appearing to enter into feelings which were never experienced, he consoles them by Mating; that the Learned Jtidges should not be hurt,:at the preference given to the junior Judge ; .for that the whole system of Govertnnent was .contrary, to the • principles of general justice. The Lord Chancellor was attacked . likewise ,on point. with .more 'than ordipary virulence,. and charged with abusing the :Great Seal, by putting it to, such an unthir and . corrupt appointment. But this was, not all.-- The Defendant had also the audacity to' charge the Noble and Learned Lord with an attempt to un dermine the. other 'Judges, and ,eonVert the. fees of n law. offices to -his:own purposes.- - This .infa-; me ms 1,4n4 further qatd; that if the errained'robe , of justice could be put round Mr. Marsden, it would not hidethe leulness of his deeds, notcouldhe wash the blood' his' . hands .in the fountain of justice. °' Gentlemen of the Jury, added- to these base charges, which-cannot, for a mothent, Jeaye a doubt of their dangerous and seditious tendeney, there .1 _exist circumstances of aggravation whieli:lnust strike 1 every frienl to order arid govt,rntilent With thegreatest horror. ,Jury would -pltNise to reeell&St the dates, :and then they i nuld perceive that tin public:nic) is 'Sued from the proz.ls i a a Shori ti tiw : after . the Late rebel lion, when die mind o f the people ' required le nitives to assuage and .allay. the iiemer distreetions which then existed, instead at peovocatives to dis-' content and 'outrage.'

When he said that Learned Judge wets the euthol- and publisher of a libel calculated. to such infinite mi4ehief, heiielt that it was necessary for him to'inake some apolel, , ,y for the assertion, till he provel it, He sits oware, that the . judgment ceat should apprwched . with the utmost yen era t ion,an d that t sanelne ry of die la sholild be regardedwith the most profound reverem u by theieconsiderations,he could assure the Court and the Jury, that he did - not makethe' charge, or com mence this Prokention, until he satisfied himself, 'however reluaantly, that the Learned JUdge was un=. lueStionably the ainhor and publisher of tll is libel. He shouldimmediately prove, from the testimony oftwo witnesses, who 110 situations et the Board of Excise and Pusteuas, to which the Learned Judge had been : ,,Counsel, that the libel was in his hand-writing.

Their testimony would he also confirmed by two other witnesses equally Well ac-, qUainted with the Defendant and his hand-writing.
