LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 17, 1858. ' to and rendered miserable every continental despot. The Governmept could not proceed with the Conspiracy Bill, for the Muse bf Con:mons rejected it. An able criminal lawyer,Mit - Bodkin, who had been conducting for weeks and Weeks; a k a incintry against threprisonee on the charge of conspiracy, turned round on .Marchl3, and, not abandon ing the charge of conspiracybeeause they would see pre sently it was hinging over the prisoner's head, but Lord Derby, not daring to bring the bill into the House of Com mons, and the Government feeling that the difficulty must be got rid of—on the 13th of March, for the first time, Mr. Bodkin made tills charge against the pri-oner, and it Was determined that the prisoner should be tried under a special commission. -Was not that an outline of the history of this case ? Now, this , act of parliament under which the prisoner was charged had nothing to do with the case, and had no bearing upon it ; it was intended to apply to a to tally different state of things. They hal heard the legal points which ho had submitted to the judges, who would reserve them if their verdict should ever make that neces sary. The act of parliament; under which this prisoner was indicted he would ihow, when he came to that part of the case, was never intended for such a case as this. But this was an experiment on the part of the Crown, to see if, with their aid, the Government could be delivered from their difficulty, and if the right of asylum of the foreign exiles in this country could be destroyed by means of their verdict. His friend the. Attorney-General was silent about that part of the case; he had filled up that space which his learned friend left vacant, and their hearts and consciences would tell them whether he had right fully done so, and they would d ec id e u p on th e ma tt er. H e was saying that they could not fairly appreciate the feelings which animated men the liberties of whose coun try had been suppressed and destroyed, they might imagine them, but they could not r ea li se th em. W ere th ey t o won der, t hen, that Italians, who had seen the liberties of their country utterly prostrated, denld they wonder that the Ita lian, who perhaps had some relic in his heart of Reiman ecru rage, should desire to take rneaeores for the deliverance of his aceniairy? Was-not allowance to be made for men is such circumstances attempt which was made upon the life of the Emperor Napoleon was made chiefly by Italians; and those who were familiar with Contemporaneous history-- knew that everything like freedom of opinion —freedom, he might almost say, of action— was utterly destroyed in Italy. The French army kept the Pope upon his throne. Italy, the seat of the Roman Republic, the mistress of the world in the middle ages, having municipal institutions which we had loved to imitate—ltaly, the birth-place, he might say, almost of liberty, had become now, as regarded freedom, a political waste and desert. And although they could not sanction, perhaps, the combin a tions whi c h th ese men en tered into, they must look at all the circumstances of the case, and anyattempt to restore their liberties by an organi sation of warfare against a tyr int who was oppressing them —where there was no crime of assassination—any organisa tion on the part of the oppressed against the tyrant had ever been sanctioned in this country. Whenever they had found a French revolution succeed, journalists who had before written against it had lauded the patriots who had risen and thrown off the yoke. So much for Italy and the feel ings of Italians who were exiles from their country. Then take for one moment France, and sketch her history very shortly. See her position now, and let them try if they could to appreciate the sentiments of Frenchmen. Ever since the mighty revolution of 17 9, the excesses of which every philosopher and every human being deplored—ever since that mighty revolution which overthrew the dynasty of the Bourbons, there had been contending for the th ro ne 'of France, the elder brattish of the Bourbons, th e O r le a nist s , and the Napoleon family ; besides which there was the great Republican party. Thank God, in this country, living under the undisputed sway of a sovereign whom we all loved and adored, we could not well appreciate the feelings of Frenchmen, but that country had for years been kept in a state of political excitement and uneasiness. The Bourbon had been plotting a gainst the Orleanist, both had been plotting against the Emperor, and the republican party had been anxious for the assertion of their feelings on liberty. These four parties bad kept France in a state of political embarrarsinent from 1789 to the moment that he was now a dd ressing them. In 1848 the government of Louis te m p t on t the Philippe ego vwasgovernment ups e t,tt o f , a [se; Philippe i b i l i i p c p e i n was e l s B t i rs o b , l i shetl threw . Louis N a p o l eon , w h o from this country hal made a n at himself upon th e f ree will, or, as he called it, the sove reignty of the peopl e , and was elected President of the Republic by fire milli ons of votes, whereby be was placed in the grandest position that ever was filled by man. What might he have done, placed as he was at the head of a constitutional government, and surrounded by the halo of a great name ? Louis Philipp e and he changed places. Louis Napoleon, from being a political exile in England, became the heat of a constitutional govern ment of France, and Louis Philippe, who had been at the . head of a constitutional Government in France, became a the Conspiracydes troy, Bill of Lord Palmerston sought to to and which they were asked by their verdict utterly political exile in England. So mach for the asylum which an nihilate. Louis Napoleon had been an exile in Switzer land, which country they would remember had refused to give him up, notwithstanding the threats otLouis Philippe; he had been exiled in America, and then be sought a re fuge on the shores of Eng'aed e and from the banks of the Rhine and the constitutional shores of England he had enunciated those principles of liberty which induced the enlightened people of France to confide their political desti eters in his hands. Placed at the head of a coast itutioaalGo vernment, he swore to maintain inviolate the freedom of France, and before the oath was cold on his lips he violated it. (Cheers, which were immediately suppressed.) His learned friend the Attorney-General had tried to enlist their feelings by talking of 516 wounds which were inflicted on the byestanders on the 14th of Jan. •, but let him - call their attention to the 2d December, IFSI, Talk of wounds ! Why, on the 2d December, 1851, the drunken French sol diers ware turned loose upon an unresisting mob, and men, women, and children were indiscriminately slaughtered. Louis Napoleon had determined that he would not govern constitutionally any longer. There were men in Par is then who were more attached to order than himself, for they had never been guilty of treasonable practices against the exist ing government. There was Cavaignac, than whom no man ever did more to maintain order in Frame, and than whom a greater patriot and a greeter lover of ccustitutional freedom never lived ; and there were Changarsier and Thiers, and Lamoriciere an Bedeau, who were lovers of order, but who were equally lovers of constitutional sovernment. On the 2d Doc., 1851, Louis Nap o l eon, by wh e w, he trusted he bad s h w t e h m is b p e r re ose e c f u t t h io e n r ‘ e v p a r s e i e n e s n t t i i in ti t v e e d, a w s i e t e h m o b u l t y re t a e so b n e , caused t.hem the seized in their' bed s , an d oonfined in gaol. Without cause and without reason his d run k en soldietybroke into the Cour de Cessation, wh ore th o jurigee of the court ware sitting, and where an accusati on of treason was being made against him, and these soldi ery turned the judges into the streets. o n He erected himself a throne, and Oen went through the mockery of an election. Upon that occasion, and be was speaking from history well known, from able letters from Paris, which were published in the jearnels, thousands of persons were sent to gaol without trill, and transported to the arid plains of Algiers, or to the deadly marshes of Cayenne. Such had been the conduct of the man who-was the prosecutor in this case, and they were asked to con vict this prisoner under some absurd sod ridiculous threats that we were to have a war if he , wts not executed. The prisoner was charged with being an accessory before the fact of the murder of Nicholas Battle. Of course he was not there to contend that if the prisoner and Orsini con spired to kill one person, and in the attempt to kill him kilied another, h e was not liable; but of course this par ticular occurrence must bo proved tothoir satisfactions, and it must be shown to the exclusion of every reasonable doubt, that this crime was "instigated, counselled, and planned," which he believed, were the terms of the in dictment, by the prisoner. That was the charge which the Government bad undertaken to rove; and if it was con sistent, as he would show them it was, with the whole of this case, that the prisoner had nothing whatever to do with this attack upon Napoleon, bat that he believed that what they ware about to be engaged in was an insurrec tion for the restoration of liberty in Italy, then, according to the (return of one of the most able judges who ever sat ou the English bench —Mr. Baron Alderson—the prisoner must be acquitted. Mr. Baron Alderson said, "If they found a state of things consistent with the prisoner's committing the act, but inconsistent with the conclusion that any other than the prisoner was the guilty person, that one single circumstance being inconsistent with such a conclusion, however unimportant of itself, would de stroy the hypothesis of guilt." A n d what did they prove ? They proved to the satisfaction of the ju ry— for it must come to them at last, as the great sanc tuary of freedom and of life—that he instigated and corm gelled this emeute— that he was a party to sending the grenades which he (slr. James) said were intended for any other object than an attack upon the life of Napoleon. if they found that many of the facts, as he should show- - and they had never been disputed —were consistent with both suppositions, and, as he should show, that the assas sination of the Emperor hal never crossed the prisoner's mind, but that whenever he had expressed an opinion on the subject, as he did to King, it was that on Orsini's re turn Italy would be free, they would not be justified in finding the prisoner guilty. Baron Alderson laid it down —he was quoting from " Russell on Crimes," vol. 2, p. 727—that " where an indistment for murder was supported entirely on circumstantial evidence, and no fact amounting to presumption of guilt, the jury must, before finding the prisoner guilty, be satisfied, not only that the circumstances were consistent with his committing the act, but that they were inconsistent with the conclusion that any ether than the prisoner was the guilty person ; and that a single circumstance inconsistent with such a conclusion was more important than all the rest, because it destroyed the hypo thesis of guilt. Nor was there any difference between civil and criminal cases, except that in the former the de gree of probability might be more safely adopted, property only being in question, than in the latter, which affected life." Tay must be satisfied in their hearts and in their consciences, before they consigned the prisoner at the bar to an English scaffold, that he was a party in instigating this particular murder. Now he held that the facts were inconsistent with that view. No doubt they had proof that a murder had been committed in Paris —no doubt that Radio and Gomez used the weapons with which they had come provided, for a different purpose, to commit a sud den attack upon the Emperor—no doubt of that. But the prosecution sought to establish the charge ag ainst the prisoner by thr e e general propositions, and alt hough their witnesses were• extremely numerous, many of them having been brought forward to establish that which nobody disputed, viz., the facts of the murder in Paris— they would fi d a vast deal of that evidence inapplicable to the three propositions he referred to, and which, us not bearing upon the salient points of the case, might be rejected from consideration. 'diadem ned friend the Attorney-General made out first a connection between the prisoner and All sop, the Englishman, and through him with the grenades, which, it would be rernembsred, were ordered by Allsop, and, if they pleased to say so, paid for by him in the menthe of October and November. They were ordered on the 6th of October, and delivered on tho 23d of Novem ber. The Crown sought to establish the connection with the prisoner by means of these grenades, and the case was this —" You," they said to the prisoner, " went to Geared, who was keeping the Cafe Suisse in London, and asked him to take'over the grenades to Brussels." Now no one could doubt that in this part of their case the Govern ment bad utterly failed ; and the woman whom they had called on the previous day, and whom they had brought over at the last moment from Brussels, had not only not proved their case, but had proved the direct cont rar y. B u t when they sought to make out the connection by means of the grenades ordered by Allsop of Taylor, of Birmingham, and by the delivery of them to Georgi to be carried to Brus sels, they must establish the identity of the grenades, or there wee no case, It must be proved to the satisfaction of the jury beyond doubt that those grenades which were made by Taylor in Birmingham, and which it was proved did the mischief in Paris, were those which passed through Dr. Bernard's hands. The six grenades manufactured by Taylor were those that did the mischief. How was it at tempted to trace these grenades to the hand of the prisoner at the bar. Here were the grenades (exhibiting the speci mens in court to the jury.) Taylor, it appeared, made six of them. There were two sizes, one three and the other four inches in diameter. Now,svery one of the six grenades made by Taylor had 25 holes, and he begged especial atten tion to this point. These six grenades were accounted for in this way. One was found upon Pierri entire, one was found in the track of Orsini ; three explosions were hoard at the time of the attack, which accounted for three more; and one, it was suggested, was used for experiment, and not taken by Pierri, making the sixth. The prosecution, in making out their case, endeavoured to trace from Mr. Taylor's manufactory these grenades with 25 holes which did the mischief; and in the course of doing so, it was sought to implicate the prisoner by his visits to Rudio's house in Bateman's-buildings the moment a difficulty arose in the course of the examination as to the number of the holes. It was perfectly clear that they had not connected the prisoner with any knowledge of these particular gre nades. The prisoner believed that certain instruments were to be used for a general rising for the liberation of Italy. That he admitted ; but he had never had a part in the de livery or conveyance of these particular missiles by means of which the murder had been committed. Witnesses had been tempted to prove by falsehood that he had. Let them see how the evidence established, not that these were the grenades given by the prisoner to Georgi, but the direct negative of that proposition. The first evidence with which they bad to deal was Georgi's. He (Mr. James) ab horred imputing perjury to any man ; nor was he about to do so on the present occasion ; but he could not forget that this witness came before them under very peculiar circum stances, and they found that he had a most elastic memory. Al the present moment there was a raandat d'arret —a state warrant hanging over the head of the witness ; and he hoped that after his evidence was given, and he had helped tolconvict the unhappy prisoner at the bar, to go back to Brussels, and find that affair settled —" arranged," as he expressed it iu his evidence. See what cause hehad to make his evidence agreeable to those by whom he had been brought there. Ho had been arrested---bad been 26 days in prison on a charge arising out of this affair. And now he was sent over here to ' 'iv.) his evidence before an Eng lish jury with a Brussels State warrant hanging over his head, issued at the instigation of the Emperor of the French, who he knew well would leave no stone unturned to in- sure his conviction, unless he bought immunity by his tes timony in the present case. He asked the jury to look at 'hose grenades. Could they have them in their bands once without being struck by the peculiarity of their construc tion ! Examine the top of the cylinder and the space that was occupied by the 25 holes. What said this witness ? The articles produced as specimens were like this (the model exhibited). The articles which he brought as speci mens were like this (one of the baud grenades), but they had not the screw at the end. He showed me five, but they were not all the same size. The specimens he showed me consisted of five halves of the instrument produced. There were thrre of the upper ball of the shell, and two of the lower half. The latter had several nipple holes, but there wore no nipples in the holes ; the surface was perfectly smooth. The upper halves had a hole in them, but they were without the sore w . "Th ere were not so many holes as in this." That was in his deposition. In his cross-examination be said— -" I saw no balls with 25 holes in each. There might have been one with sor 6. I never counted them. I might has e seen one with 5 or 6 holes, but I will not swear." Then the Attorney-General most fairly—and no one could have discharged theduty which had devolved upon him with more fairness or humanity than his hon. and learned friend ha I evinced in this case—got up and said to him : " But were there not 25 holes?" This, be it remembered, was af er the witness had distinctly sworn to sor 6 holes. The thought of the mandat d'arret flashed on his mind, as a sword hang ing in the air, and he immediately swore up to-23. No doubt this man was under great temptation to stretch his memory, which appeared naturally servile and elastic, and remembering before ho left the b x that his testimony would net be sufficient unless he swore up to 25 ho did so. (A learned gentleman at the table—No; 15.) He (Mr. James) was wrong ; ho found that the witness only swore up to 15. The next witness called was Fourmarier, the boy waiter at the Cafe Suisse. He said, " There were ten halves, and they appeared to be of three kinds ; two of them had small holes in them. There were so many as 20 or 25 of these holes in souse of them. Five of the hdles were about the size of the one now produced, and I think there was a screw in every one of them." Upon his cross examination be would not swear to 25 or to 15. " Will you may," asked his learned friend Mr. Hawkins " that there were ten ?" " Th ere may have been more, perhaps fewer," was the reply ; "I don't k now ." He next' came to the evi dence of Iteghenzi, That witness not only failed to sup port the case of the crown, but proved directly the contrary. He was in a different position from Georgi---he had no state warrant hanging over his head. He was free from police control or state prosecution, and he was at liberty to speak the truth, without risk or danger to his life or liberty when he returned. He said— " I made a drawing of the article when it was fresh in my memory, but the specimen put into my hand does not bring back to my mind the same descrip tion of article"—that was the article of which he made a drawing while it was fresh in his memory. There was in the drawing seven holes. Here was the evidence of three wit nesses. Now, he would take the 'testimony of CAsiinir Zeguers. It appeared that certain articles were given to him to convey to Franco, and there eould be no question that this man did convey to France the articles that did the mischief. He had more opportunity of examining the balls than the other witnesse.. He saw them on the man tel-piece in the smoking-room of the cafe. He took them out one by one in halves, an-I he could not, therefore, fail to observe how the top of the cylinder was riddled with holes. He took thorn out one by one at the frontier; he put them back again one by one, and he took them out again when he gave them to Orsini et Paris. He had thus four distinct opportunities of examining them. Ho said, " They were of this description, but I did not observe any boles in them." But this being a witness for the Crown, the question then arose, what had been his epees' tunities ; and having had full opportunities of examining them, the evidence of this witness not only could not satisfy the jury of the identity, but altogether disproved the fact of their being the same articles at a ll. S uc h was the position in which the case for the prosecution stood on Wednesday night. The witnesses to identity had faded, and had , p r r h o e v n et a l i t i l o r t e h t e l r i r w ee i t t n c e o s n s t w ra a r s y s Saunders was sent ov er f or th e f ema l e witness who was ex o of sent w f h o a r t . • w Ta arequired u b o i f q t t t ihteomu &mined yesterday, She made a drawing, which was un fortunately left behind, but which by the way wai attached to the deposition which Saunders had brought over. The deposition was here, but the drawing wad left behind at Brussels, The Attorney-General—lt was not attached. Mr. James --But it was given beyond all doubt to the uge d'instruction. Tho Attorney-General—lt was produced before the British consul; the deposition was before the jugs d'iu struction. Mr. James said her drawing was not produced, but she said the counted them, and there were 25 holes. Then were they to suppose that Reghonzi could have made a 1 drawing and not have seen the holes ? This link in the chair' of evidence was wanting. The case for the prosecu , tiou was that Taylor made the grenades at Birmingham, and that Dr. Bernard was shown to have been in possession of them. He said they had failed in showing that, but, on the contrary, the instruments which were aeon in the pri soner's possession were proved not to have been grenades, and the prosecution bad not only cast a doubt, but had utterly negatived the evidence as to the identity of them. Aud now they came for a moment to the question of the pistols. Those pistols were bought by Orsini and Pierri of Mr. Millis, of Birmingham. lie was not there to deny that Orsini was calculating on some great emeute, and was preparing arms for it, and he was no t d eny i ng that Dr. Bernard contributed ire that preparation. But he did deny that Dr. Bernard was aware of this particular attempt. He wished it to be known, that he denied—and it could not be proved because it was not the fact — that he was cognisant of and was privy to this attempt ou the life of the Emperor, but that he and others were assisting Orsini to bring about an emeuto he did not deny. That was consistent with every portion of the evidence on the part of the crown, it was I consistent with the evidence that lie knew he was as sisting in the collection of arms at Paris, but he I denied that the intention to murder Napoleon was known to, or was canvassed by him. Well, these pistols were sent, and how were they sent? King, the keeper of the office of the South Eeaetern railway, at Re gent-circus, had known Bernard for some yeas, Bernard went to him and declared to him, openly, that the parcel contained two revolvers to be sent to the house of Outre quin, in his own name and with his own address. That he knew that these arms were to be sent to Paris there could be no question, and it was a remarkable characteris tic of all Dr. Bernard's acts in this matter, that there was not one of them in which there was any attempt at con cealment except one, the letter to Mrs. Rudio after the at tempt. Ho took out the passport for Belgium in his own name and address, the pistols were sent by him, and the notes were changed by him in his own name. When he took the pistols to King, a conversation took place, in which ho said that he was a proscrit, and there would be some difficulty, upon which King, who said he had had dealings with Dr. Bernard before, permitted the parcel to go without the usual declaration. King asked him when be thought he should back to his own country, and the pi i roner replied, "I shall go back when your ally, to whom you seem so much attached, conies here." He was not dis puting that fire-arms were being collected in Franco, and that the prisoner was engaged in sending them. But in a fatal moment Orsini and the men who were there made an attempt which everybody regretted. Then there was this letter of Mr. Allsop's of the let of January, 1857. Dr. Bernard was seen with him about rising money in July, 1857, and that was the only time ou which he was seen with him. But they were not, as in the time of Sydney, to execute a roan because a paper was found in his desk. Their lordships bad de cided that the letter was admissible, and ho bowed to that decision, but the effect—the weight of it—was net for their lordships to determine. If a letter written a year ago, found under the table, was to be regarded as proof of the complicity of the prisoner in a transaction of the 14th January, 1853, what man was safe ? Let them see what this letter was? "Riverhead, Kent, January let, 1857. — My dear doctor,—Many thanks for the two slips which you propose sending to the friends of Italy." He paused here for a moment to remark, that at the last moment, without any notice to them, a latter from Orsini was put in, and there was an intimation that there was some dark mystery about it ; but of that the jury would judge. But, to revert to the letter from Allsop—" the communications which you propose sending to the friends of Italy." No doubt, there was a vast combination, and, as he said be fore, they could not consider that these men, seeing the liberty that was enjoyed here, should indulge in aspira tions to procure liberty in their own country. It seemed that some of these men met in a room in Leicester-square, and Rogers, the spy, spoke of what the prisoner said there. He acknowledged, howeve r , th a t w h at th e pr i sone r said amounted to but little, and was not worth a report. The letter went on to say, "I hope that some answers have been received in London. lam glad to learn that any difference of opinion is limited to ono point. Difference of o o f pi action nio n is s fo necessary However, .havo t ovnioty ry confidence in the future. The abominable unscreant Of the 2nd of December seems to have reached hie cul. itr success.e xi sti in every but u . [PRIOR 4D. sa,] minating Have you seen the witheri ng con tempt with which Smith O'Brien alludes to the Queen's kissing this unconvicted felon." Now, h did not endorse the opinion of Mr. Allsop, who seemed to be a wild enthusiast. But he had not said more than many Ministers had said. He proceeded— He is not likely to give muc h more t rou ble, even if he should escape the retribution he se richly merits. If I was in California now I would at once double the amount offered by Lentlor to the man who should p er f or m a n act of jestece on that most wretched caitiff." He was alluding to a letter by Mr. Lender, which at that tiote was attracting great public attention. "He must be killed," the letter went on to say, "and with him the system which ho seems to bo necessary to keep up." Now, because Mr. Allsop wrote the opinion of a wild enthusiast in January, 1557, was that any proof that Dr. Bernard shared in them ? On the contrary, Rogers the spy said the speech he had heard Bernard make was not worth a report, but this letter was read in evidence against the prisoner on a charge of murder. Men of litera ture must take care that no letters were found in their possession. If a letter which was found in a man's passes- Sion were to be proof of murder, was there a member of the House of Commons, or a man devoted to literature, or a journalist, who might have a letter or a pamphlet, which he read or did not read, counselling assassination, who would be safe ? He beiieved that at first some of their lords shipsthought that the letter was da' el let Jar s , 1358. In that case the letter would have been material ; but it was January, 1857. The letter went on to say, " I shall be glad to hear of O rs i n i' s progress. " Orsini had been lectur ing in Edinburgh and Glasgow, and no doubt it was to that that he alluded. He now came to the other letter that was found on the 7th of April, 1557, in which the only expression that called for remark was ai to "the red and c ompany. " Why, was there any thing in that expression which exceeded in violence the terms applied in what were called the tory days to the radicals in this country? This letter was about as harmless a letter as ever was written by one gentleman to another. Next he came to that part of the case ou which the Crown mainly rested, the evidence of Mrs. !Indio. Their c , scs would be this :--" Rudio was a man in distress. Wo may imagine him a ready tool iu your hands. You hired him not for any expedition for Orsini, but for this particular murder." That must be their case or none. What expedition Rudio hail been engaged in with Orsini they did not know. Those who could explain that were no more. The manner in which the woman Radio, tutored as she had been by the police, and under the surveillance of Rogers and Saunders for so long a time, gave her evidence, dial her credit. Rudio, it was clear, had been intimate with Orsini ; he had received charity from Orsini ; and who could tell what was the expedition upon which Rudio was engaged—Orsini, who was lead ; Radio, whe was in the prison of France, anal the prisoner at the bar--all of whom had their mouths closed. E udio might have been brought over to give evidence, and the threat that he might have been discharged here by habeas was idle, as he might have been re-demanded under the extra dition treaty. The whole of the evidence was consistent with the supposition that the grenades were intended not for the assassination of the Emperor of France, but to be used against the Fr such army in an expedition for the re generation of Italy. The number of grenades ordered sixty-eix—and the quantity of fulminating powder, wholly bore out that idea; anal the explanation was that Oreini, in a moment of impulse, used them in the unfortunate atterept of the 14th of January against the Emperor. Had Rudio's evidence been confirmatory of the view taken by the prosecution, he would doubtless have been pro duced ; but the probability was that had he been called, he would have proved that the prisoner knew nothing of the attempted assassination, but that he was privy to an intended expedition for the liberation of Italy. That being so, Rudio was not forthcoming. If there was much of the evidence consistent with the case the Crown wished to make out ; yet if there was touch of it also inconsistent with the guilt of the prisoner, he could not be convicted. The evidence of Eliza Cheney, corroborated by-Mrs. Rudio, went to show that the destination of Rudio was Italy, not France. That was the impression of Dr. Bernard; anal hearing of the attempt of the 14th of January, which shocked the whole world, he naturally rushed down to Elize Ctieney's house, and asks, " Good God, what has Rudio done ?" What so natural that having been en gaged in procuring those grenades for another arid so to tally different a purpose, be should have felt alarm when he heard of the purpose to which those missiles had been ap plied. Suppose a man had procured a pistol for aeother under the impression that it was to protect his twee° against housebreakers, and afterwards hear I that the man had used it for the purpose of murder, would net he, being identified with the pistol by which the deed was committed feel alarm ? Consistent, therefore, as was the conduct of the prisoner with the case for the Crown, it was also con sistent, and thoroughly consistent, with his own. It might be urged that the smallness of the number was in consistent with the supposition that they were intended to be used for the purposes of war; but that argu ment was answered when the difficulty of introducing into Paris arms intended for a great political object--an expedition for the regeneration of Italy-- and the absolute necessity that existed of forwarding them in small parcels. If there was any doubt the prisoner was entitled to it. They had heard of the letters found on Dr. Bernard ; had any letters been found on Orsini, or rierri, or Rudio, or Gomez ? They knew the dying decla ration of Orsini, it was consistent with the truth, that Dr. Bernard was engaged in an expedition for the regeneration of Italy, but it was wholly inconsistent with the supposi tion that Dr. Bernard was implicated in an attempt to as sassinate the Emperor of the French. He implored them seriously to consider this fact, that - ett him was not only no letter or scrap of any letter or document found, but that if there had been any, the French police, which was as perfect now as it was in the days of Fouche, when wives were bribed to betray their husbands—with all the power of the French police not only was there not found on him any document, bat there was not the trace of any letter through the post-office, or any communication which showed that the prisoner had any complicity in this fatal enterprise. I am now, said the learned coun • sel, coming to the conclusion of my observations an this extraordinary case, and I ask you is this a case in which you will wrest the law and give a verdict of guilty? Is this a arse in which you will consign to death the prisoner at the bar? I should have thought that under the twilight of that morning when Orsini and Pierri expiated their crime on the scaffold enough had been done to vindicate French justice. 1 should have thought that the vengeance of Louis Napoleon, whose insulting demands on Sardinia and Switzerland you have heard so much of, demands which were also made on this country, but which were re si4ed by the firmness of our Hoe-e of Coen - Leone—had been satisfied. But you have this unfortunate man in dicted for conspiracy and for wilful murder also. I have a right to say—and it is not merely my opinion, but the opinion of jurists more able than myself—that the Act of Parliament under which he is indicted does not apply to this case. I believe that as regards the law this trial is a mockery and a sham. Th e grea t o bj t ct of the French government is to establish the principle that the French exile is not protected in this country. It has been the pride of English men th at this country is tho refuge of all. As Cicero says, Regina's, populartun, nationum portus ct refulgum." We have hail exiled kings here ;we have hail exiled priests and exiled nobles. We have had monarchs of France in exile here; and Louie Napoleon him self was an exile here. The object of this prosecution is to make this country no longer the asylum of the exile ; but I trust you will hesitate long before, by your verdict, you bring about such a result. I trust that you will find in this case doubts which will justify, nay compel you to say that the particular crime which is charged is not proved to your satisfaction. It has been a great advantage to this country that it has ever been open to political exiles. The inquisition, the persecutions of Phillip, and the revocation of the edict of Nantes, sent to our shores many who en riched us by their knowledge of manufactures and arts, and from these refugees some of our best citizens, amongst whom I may mention the Laboucheres and the Romillys, have sprung. Will you destroy that asylum which exiles have ever enjoyed, and which I trust they will ever con tinue to enjoy? No, gentlemen, you will not. I implore you to pause, because I believe t hat at present you do not see the political results of your verdict. Gentlemen, I have done. I have discharged my duty in regard to this unhappy gentleman to the best of my ability. I have dis charged it as an English advocate, and I trust that I have discharged it fearlessly, and as 1 should in au English court of justice. And lam proud to say, that though the liberty of the press is extinguished in France—though a man there cannot record his opinion if it be unfavourable to the imperial government --I sin glad that it is the pride of the French Isar that freedom of speech still lingers there, and that the tyrant cannot destroy it. I have dis charged my duty to the best of my ability, little equel to the magnitude of the case. Let me urge you to discharge yours fearlessly, conscientiously, and firmly. - You will have the case left in your hands, after the reply of the Att , racy-General, by one who holds the scales impartially. Let me implore you to discharge your duty unintimidated by the French army and by threats of French invasion. Tell the French Emperor that he cannot intimidate an English jury. Tell him that the jury -box is the sanctuary of English liberty. Tell him that on this spot your predecessors have resisted the power of the crown backed by the influence of crowtoserving and time-serving judges. Tell him that under every diffi• culty and danger your predecessors have secured the politi eel liberties of the people. Tell him that the verdicts of English juries are founded on the eternal and immutable principles of justice. Tell him that panoplied iu that armour no threat of armament or invasion can intimidate you. Toll him that though 600,000 French bayonets glit tered before you, though the roar of French cannon thundered in your ear, you will return a verdict which your own hearts and consciences will sanctify and approve, careless] whether that verdict pleases or displeases a foreign despot, or secures or shakes and destroys for ever the throne which a tyrant has built upon the ruins of the liberties of a once free anal mighty people. (Loud cheers and clapping of hands from all parts of the court, in which the prisoner joined, but which were suppressed by the officers of the court.) Tne Attorney-General rose to reply on the whole case. He said—The time had now arrived for him to sum up to them the evidence fur the prosecution, and the tim r ! , was not now far di-tant when they would have to per form their part.

He firsiP land, in a /In 1.. court of j'ostice, the dream of his learned r _ friend that this trial, before learned judges of . the and ' before a British jury, that the prosecution had been instigated or promoted by the French Government or any other persons but those who were able to direct each a prosecution in this country. The late Attorney- General instituted this inquiry, from certain circum stances laid before him, that there was evidence to show that the prisoner was implicated with Or,ini and others in a conspiracy to murder. The case was brought before a magistrate when certain evidence was given, and the case a , sutned an aspect that led the learned counsel who conducted the case and the worthy magistrate before TRIAL OF BERNARD. [The following is a more extended report of the brilliant speech delivered by Mr. James than appeared in our im pression of yesterday :--1 Mr. James at once proceeded to address the jury for the defence, but in so low a tone of voice that his opening sentences were quite inendible in the reporters' box. He was understood to commence by urging upon the attention of the jury the grave importance of the case, and remind ing them that in its discussion, and in the verdict they were about to pronounce, was involved consequences the most serious, not only to public and private liberty in this country, but to the cause of freedom and of civilisation throughout the world. It had ever been the boast--and no idle or empty boast it was—that it was the duty as well as the pleasure of the English bar to render assistance to the weak against the strong, to the oppressed as against the oppressor. From that very spot from which he now spoke the names of Erskine, of Brougham, and of Denman, had shed the lustre of their eloquence in pleading the cause of those against whom had been brought to bear the influence of the Crown for asserting the liberty of the subject. It might be said, as was by the Roman orator—" Insignia mcestis prmsidium rein." And last, but not least—if he might be permitted to say it in the presence of a judge whose great learning and sound judgment adorned the bench—in the last State trial that had taken place the eloquence of Pollock shod lustre upon the cause he espoused. The present ease came before the court under peculiar cir cumstances. His learned friend the Attorney-General had opened the case with the moderation and calm dignity which became its importance and his own high position as a minister of justice; but he could not but remark that in that opening there was a portentous silence upon one point—his learned friend omitted altogether to explain how it was that now for the first time in the annals of our jurisprudence a case of this nature had been brought before an English jury. His learned friend had never explained how it was, before they were asked to find a verdict —how it was that, at the bidding of those who were net con tent with the blood of Orsini and Pierri, they were asked to stain an English scaffold with the blood of the pri soner at the bar. It was right they should have it distinctly stated on what principle it was, on what ground it was, that this prosecution was based upon this particular act of Parliament, which he trusted he should bo able to show was perverted, and wrested from the object which those who framed it bad in view, to serve a purpose of which they never dreamed. Nor was this his opinion only. It was the opinion of the most eminent jurists of the country at the present moment. He wanted to know how it was that an act of Parliament which had never before been made applicable to such circumstances was thus put in force against the prisoner at the bar. The Attorney-General had observed a significant silence on this point, and had carefully abstained from all allusion to the act of Parliament, or to the circumstances which had brought about this extraordinary prosecution. Ile should be able to satisfy the jury that this was a prosecution not on account of an injury of which her Majesty had to com plain, or of which any British subject had to complain but it was a prosecution directed by foreign dictation, to bring about a state of political subserviency to foreign go vernments, which the Government of this country had not the courage to submit to the English House of Commons and to the English people. The consequence was that the Treasury solicitor had been directed to ransack the archives of Parliament to find an act under which a prosecution and a conviction could be obtained for the crime of wilful murder against a man—not to vindicate justice, but to gratify a political object, which the Government of the day wanted the courage to submit to the consideration of the English people and the Cominous House of Parliament. The Attorney-General had told the court nothing of the origin of this prosecution. Ho had listened in vain to hear how it had come about how it was that a charge of con spiracy had been brought against the gentleman at the bar --and he was a gentleman by birth, education, and sta tion—that charge having been hanging over him for many, many days, and prosecuted with all that ingenuity which distinguished one of the ablest criminal lawyers at the bar, his learned friend Mr. Bodkin—how it was that after the case had been heard and reheard before the magis trate, and the evidence brought forward in support of it published all over Europe, the advocate of the Crown had said, " Let us take that evidence" which he (Ur James) considered was not evidence that could be received on a charge of wilful murder--" let us take that evidence, and speculate upon the chances of conviction upo e the more serious charge of murder—let us try and get a verdict against the prisoner ou the capital charge. and that perhaps will relieve us front a disagreeable political difficulty." Let them stop for a moment to inquire into the origin of this transaction. As they all knew an attempt was made upon the life of the Emperor Napoleon on the 14th of Jan. 1: 4 55. The jury had bad pictured to them by the Attorney- General the vast injury—death in some instances, wounds in others—that was occeeioue I by' this attempt of Orsini's, and though all that his learned friend had said in that re spect mightbo true, the jury must not forgot that it in no way concerned the prisoner. The prisoner was not present nor had it been shown that he had taken any part in in stigating, or that he had participated in any way in that most criminal transaction. He needed not to be reminded of the horror and detestation with which every English. man regarded the crime of assassination. He was not there to say a word in palliation of a crime so cowardly, dark and dastardly as assassination. He would not on that occasion (for it was not necessary) enter into any discussion of a question that attracted the attention of philosophers of all nations whether it was right to get rid of a tyrant by death. But there was so much horror attached to the crime of as sa.ssinationtlaat every Englishman shuddered at it. He could not do better than quote from the speech of one of the most brilliant advocates of the French bar, M. Jules Fevre, who defended Orsini, and thank God liberty of speech lingered at that bar, though the press was no longer free. The learned gentleman here quoted from M. Jules Favre's ad dress in defending Orsini the passage in which he con demned assassination, but said of despotism, " God re serves fur despots a fate inure dreadful than the machi nations of the assassin." This was not only the view of an eloquent man and a philosopher, but it was a truth which all history taught, and though Providence in its wisdom might for a time permit the despot to trample upon the liberties of a free people, there re mained for him an inevitable retribution more certain than the dagger of the assassin. To suppose that any En g li s h advocates, or any English jury would regard, assassination as a thing under any circumstances to bo tolerated or justi fied, was not t > know the feelings by which Englishmen and English courts of justice were actuated ; still, looking at all tho features of the cidse, it was perhaps possible to understand the sentiment that lingered in the minds of Italians whose liberties had been destroyed by a blasting and withering de potism—they might possibly understand the existence of a sen ti men t in the minds of those men whose liberties had been destroyed and trampled upon, a w t i h t i u c t h i 3 O thank God, w who enjoyed ere Government,and reigned in the hearts o f her p e ople, could never share. wru t l e h d e by blessings a Sovereign Though we might h a ve a natural horror of the crime o f assassination, we could understand that a people who we re f a who o - n c oppressed and tyrannised over—who were robbed of their liberties by foreign tyranny, might be justified in availing themselves of every means to throw off the yoke. Well, this desperate attempt of Orsini's having become known in L indon and throughout Europe, then came the demand on the part of France to deliver up the exiles who had gained an asylum in England. This was followed by the threaten ing language of the French generals, published in the etione'eur, and next came the sp eec h of Louis Napoleons ambassador to the citizens o f L on d on . L or d Palmerston's Government was pressed by the demands of a man who had himself found an asylum in this country from political persecution. Then came a proposal on the part of Lord Palmerston to the House of Commons of the Conspiracy Bill. Let them trace up these matters (which were fresh in their recollection) one after the other, and say whether it was not clear that a political purpose was to be answered by this prosecution, the object the Government had in view being to concede in this way to the demands of a fo reign despot that which they dared not ask the House of Commons to sanction. Well, Lord Palmerston introduced the Conspiracy Bill to the House of Commons, but Lord Palmerston's Government was wrecked upon that measure on the motion of his (Mr. James's) hon. friend, Mr. Gibson. The noble and learned lord who was now presid ing inthat court judicially, exercising his undoubted privi lege in the House of Lords, declared his opinion distinctly as to the power of the English law in dealing with cases such as that bill was intended to meet—from which, how ever, a very able lawyer in the House of Commons, the late Attorney-General, differed. It became a subject of discussion whether or not the law of England enablsd the Government to comply with the demand made upon it by the Emperor of the French to give up those foreign exiles which he chose to demand—and the result of that discus- sion was that the Conspiracy Bill was rejected by the House of Commons, and a statesman whose name should never be mentioned without veneration and respect in the presence of any assembly attached to the principles of civil and religious freedom—Lord John Russell—said that he should consider it a shame and a listing disgrace to the people of England if such a measure were passed. Nor was that feeling confined to the noble lord--it was shared iu by a largo majority of the English House of Commons, who rejected a bill against which the genius of the English people rebelled. Lord Palmerston's goveremeit was wrecked upon that measure—and the House of Commons, firm in its constitution d strength, resisted the demands of one whose dictation might have more effect when directed against the comparatively weaker states of Sardinia or Switzerland. The bill was rejected. Lord Palmerston's government was wrecked, and Lord Derby's Government succeeded—but this prosecution wont on. Lord Palmer ston's government was thrown out on the 19th February. At that time the proceedings in this case were going on, the prisoner having been arrested on the 14th. On thel3th of March, weeks and weeks after the prisoner had been in custody, and after ho had been repeatedly examined on the charge of conspiracy 7 a charge in reference to which the opinion of lawyers differed, whether he could be con victed or not, without ransacking the statute-book for sonic forgotten musty old act of Parliament—on the 13th March, for the first time, the counsel for the Crown g©t up and stated in the police-court that the charge of conspiracy on which all the evidence bad been given, was to be—not abandoned, but east aside for the moment, and upon that evidence, which he (Mr. James) contended was not admis sible upon a charge of wilful murder—under a statute that was never intended to apply to a case of this kind, the charge of wilful murder was founded. On March 13 the prisoner was charged with having been an accessory before the fact to the crime of murder, and the attempt was made to pro ceed against him for the penalty of death. Lot them see what had taken place between the time of the commence• mont of the prosecution and March 13. Lord Derby bad succeeded to power. What was he to do ? The House of Commons bad virtually declared, wo will not pass this Conspiracy Bill. Lord Palmerston 'e Government had been 'wrecked and shattered upon it. Lord Derby knew vary well that he could not again submit it to the House of Com mons. What, then, was to be done? The demand of the Emperor Napoleon had been made—the Conspiracy Bill had been brought in to please him; but the House of Com mons rejected it--they would have nothing to do with it Something must be done, so the Treasury lawyers were directed to ransack the statute book for some musty act, which somebody orotherhad heard of, upon which to found a special commission, to try whether they could enforce an at of Parliament that was no more intended by its framers to apply to a case such as this than it was to bring any one of the jury who were trying it within the meshes of an in dictment for treason.

The prisoner was charged as an aceessery before the fact, and the law was, that if any person sup. plied any means, by which these persons, Orsini, Rudio, and Pierri could ha v e assassi n ated the Emperor o f th e French, or attempt to do any grievous bodily harm to him, and if they, in making that attempt, however un willing, sacrificed the lives of other persons, then they who did that act were guilty of murder, . and those who .assisted them as accessories before the fact. It was perfectly immaterial whether they had any inten tion of deetrnying those particular individuals named in the indictment, and he (the Attorney-Geueral) charged the moral responsibility belonging to the guilt of these wholesale murders to every one of the parties directly or indirectly using the implements employed; The learned couneel at great length and minuteness entered into the fsets detailed in the evidence, pointing out the portions which he urged completely made out the charge against the prisoner. Two questions alone were left to them on the evidenee—first, whether the instruments supplied to Orsini and his assistants were the same grenades or a portion of them, which Mr. Taylor nianufectuted, Alisop paid for, and Orsini and his associates commit ted the murders, or whether there were other instru mento manufactured, purchased, and obtained else Where, and conveyed to Brussels for anottier different purpose. The remaining question, however humanely and merci fully they wished to judge of the prisoner's conduct, and ef which he (the learned Attorney-General) thought it was impossible for them to entertain a shadow of a doubt, was the knowledge of the prisoner of the unlaw• ful purposes for which these instruments Were pro cored. The learned counsel referred to the cross-examination of the witnesses, that the shells were made for the improvement of gas, acrd the admission of the prisoner's counsel that they were to be used for a general rising on the continent, and said he was at a loss to know what was the line of defence relied on by the prisoner. He contended that the grenades which had been introduced during the trial were the a n c ri t t u t a e l d. ins l t t ru w m a e s nte tto w e it t h ho w w hi i c t h nes t s h e e s t h n a u d rd v e a r rie w d a a s c li . t , little with respect to the form of tho:e mi,siles, but the evi ls nee had proved to demonstration that such was the fact. If the prisoner had sent these grenades to Brus sels for a lawful purpose what use could there have been to have resorted to the many subterfuges that had been proved. It had been suggested that those grenades had been sent to Orsini not for the purpose of assassination of the Emperor of France, but to aid a general rising in Italy. He felt great confidence in stating that there aas not a scintilla of evidence auding to a rising in any part of Italy. Now, if they were to be used for such a surpose, what in the mind of man c 'hid account for the transmis,ion to Paris, a place above all others —owing to the activity I of the police—a police that had been much better described by his learned friend than he could hope to do—they were most likely to be di covered. Ho felt such a sup position was entirely groundlese. The grenades were in fact to be used to assassinate the Emperor and Em press, and not for the purpose of aiding a revolution of Italy. There was not even the slighte4 allu-ion to such a;scheme in any of the letters and documents that bad bpen produced during the long and protracted inquiry. He thought the jury would find iu going through the eyidence that the s e d es p era t e men — proscr ib ed f rom their home—abused the protection here and devised the hpriihle plan that had been disclosed. He felt sure that the evidence had proved one thing—viz., that the prisoner at the bar was well acquainted with Thomas I.llsop, and the fact of Allsop's passport being found on Orsini was a strong paint in the evidence- The letter of Allsnp found in the possession of the prisoner was a direct instigation to assassination, and, coupled with the raising of large sums of money by Ailee) through the ipstrumentality of the prisoner, showed that there was a strong identity of feeling between them. When he read the letter of Allsop of the Ist of January which denounced the Emperor "as an abominable miscreant" and " one Who roust be killed" be felt a blush e f shame that an Englishman, and one who bore an English name, could write such a letter: Near the time of receiving this letter Bernard purchased the nitric acid and alcohol with which the fulminating powder was made, and Pierri and Orsini proceeded to Bir mingham and purchased the revolt'-re, so that be tween the 1.6:11 of October and the 23rd of November ice found the grenades, the fulminating powder to barge thew, and the revolvers, in the possession of the hree men, and everything complete with the exception f forwarding them to Paris. On the 26th of the same l o ig n i t o h, Orsini ndoote drew s,an a u i gave e m of three m o o n t ey t , 01he4s8e2.0i1n. notesßank to he prisoner, and sortie of them to the man Pierri. On he 29th of November, Orsini arr i ve d i n B russels with l ls false passport, and the fir s t thi ng h e di d was to for wa rd the grenades which had been conveyed thither. iThis having been acc itiplislied, Pierri and Orsini met t at the Cafe Suisse. On the 11th of December, Orsini's horse is conveyed to Paris, along with the grenades. .On the 12th, Orsini was shown to be in Paris, with the e grenades in his possession, and all in readiness for the pro jected attempt. A few days afterwards we find the four persons Orsini, Pierri, Gomez, and Rudio, with the re volvers and grenades in their possession; and in corjtiec tion with these facts it must be borne in mind that false names and false pretences had been used by all parties. Oa the 21 of January Bernard changed one of the 201. :notes paid to Orsini at the Bank to pay the carriage of two revolvers to Paris. It bad been urged when the prisoner alluded to the Emperor returning to London he alluded to his corning as a refugee, and it was further urged Unit that circumstance was strung proof that the prisoner had no intention of taking part in the attempted assassination, but if the jury were of that opinion they woul 1, in accordance with the directions of the learned judge, give the prisoner the benefit of the doul,t. If the scheme was not an a'.te , npt at assassination what need was there for Bernard to write, and he did on the Bth of December to Outrequin introducing Orsini as Allsop. Why should the fire-arms have been sent to M. Outt equin with a false statement if they were to be used fur legitimate purposes I Why did all the letters point to a speedy return to Lon don and not cont sin one word in allu don to the general rising in Italy, upon which so much stress had been lmd ? Why should the grenades have been sent to Paris when the cl seovery ea , almost certain ? Why, if they were not wanted for some purpose in P.,ris, were they not sent to a place where they would be more se core? He asked the jury, with every disposition to put the most favourable construction on all the circnue stances, 'what other conclusion could they arrive at but that of the assassination of the Emperor Napoleon ? Before that period arrived, Bernard went to a wretched ledgirig in Soho, and finds Rudio starving ; and there he prevailed liven the unfortunate man to leave his wife, his children, and the country in which he had sought ehelter to start for Paris and assist ()salmi in contriving sit that was necessary to enable them to carry the despotic attempt into execution. He went with the instruments upon him, and was taken into custody with his ill-gotten wealth upon Lim.
