Al MEETING of the " MEMBERS of a MOST IMPORTANT "BODY." A Meeting took place, for I heard and I saw, And what do you fancy this meeting was for Why the meeting, from all I could gather, was one Te decide on the merits of MOSES and SON. The excellent Chairman, Sound Judgment, Esquire, flaying said a few words with regard to attire, Mr Shoulders, a man of respectable note, Wished to make a remark on his WAISTCOAT AND COAT. "I think," said Ike speaker, "you all ought to view MY Waistcoat, my Coat, and my Overcoat, too. I ought to speak warmly of MOSES," said he, " When I see tie warm garments they've furnished to me. W ith this Mr. Legs, arose on his pegs, And declared he considered himself tie mere dregs. " MY subject," said he, " you're aware, is my TROWSERS, But, alas! as 'o speaking, I cannot tell how, Sirs For the speaker's so !sad, and the Trowsers' so goad. That I cannot praise MOSES and SON as I would." Mr. Head next arose from the place where he sat, And delivered an eloquent speech on his HAT. " I am sure, Mr Chairman," said he, " that I'm right, In pronouncing it stylish, elastic, and light. To the Hat- mart of MOSES. and SON I'll adhere.' ~ As staunchly as over!" (Loud cries 'of " Ilear,-henttr) This speaker was fall wed by one Mr. Foot, Who rose with a dignified stamp on his " I am certain," 1100 T. said he, that I'm true In declaring The Boots made by MOSES unequalled for wearing ; They are matchless in quarters, in sole, and in vamp." And here Mr. Foot gave another loud stamp. Then the Chairman arose, and was happy to find The whole of the speakers so much of a mind. "And." said he, "on behalf of the ladles, good Sirs, I feel it my duty to speak of the FURS. If I did not pronounce them the best you could wear, I consider I should not be fit for the chair ; And remember the very low prices you pay, For these, and for all that you've mentioned to-day. I trust that the whole or the journtla, as one, Will rep rt what we've said of E. MOSES and SON." " Hear, hear," said the whole of the gentlemen there, And the business was enned with thanks to the chair. E.

This is a new and patented invention, which might perhaps be better described as the vade mecum to the traveller by railway or steam-packet. It also maintains the Registered Paletot's character as a fashionable morning or out-door Coat by a general resemblance to this ponalstr garment. The chief Improvement consists in a con trivance called a Chlamys, a name giver to an extra lining, which affords additional warmth to the chest and shoulders when worn in the atreet or on horseback in the usual manner of a Taletot ; '•ut when it is intended to be used ai a CHLAMYS PALETOT in tra velling, this extra lining, by merely fixing one button into a button hole. can be made to act as a comfortable cap or hood, effectually protecting the head, ears, neck, and front, or upper parts of the ohest from draughts or cold currents of air. Not only will the probability of catching cold he dimintshed, but travelling by night will thus be divested of its chief inconvenience, as the we'rer of NICOLL'S CIILAMYS PALETOT may enjoy a re freshing sleep, his bat or cap being hung up la the carriage or en tirely dispensed with during the journey, thus avoiding headache and other uneasy sensations caused by its compression upon the forehead.

Wilson, Chemist, Mont par, York, " To Mr. Thomas Prout, " 14th Jane, 1147. "Sin,—Having suffered most dresalfUlly for the last six years from repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Mils. When I commenced taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and *nets In the morning comparatively free from pain ; and before I had finished the box. I never was better in my : they have not only entirely removed the gout, but have also very 'such improved my general health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and ttey all speak highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effecled by your wonderful medicine, you aro at perfect liberty to publish it. " I am, Cir, yours respectfully. " J. J. WILSON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and certain relief.

Thousands of the u nmarried would with joy embrace the sacred conditions of Matrimony, did they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered page of life reveals innumerable instanc , s where, under that blighting consciousness, man has permitted the most ardent affec tion to consume him to the grave, rather than consign its object to that life of unmitigable anguish and fettered solitariness into which his affianced would he plunged if he married. Some are, however, wilful enough to gain the affections of the other sex under these circumstances; and, though not so villanous as to proceed to the altar, will make such excuses for procrastination as contribute to his selfish desire of exclusively enjoying her society, by precluding her fr , m accepting other offers. There is scarcely a s”et o *Vro this history is not enacted ; and yet w i t h the exercise 'ef common fsgesight, its frequency might be — to lessened as to ren der an inst .- Awe fare throughout the entiro - 'kingdom.' - The disqualifications fir Marriage hay, more than ono prindly sotirce ; the chief of which is Impuissance, arising from four causes :—namely, Natural Deficiency; the Prostration produced by Early Habits; the Weakening effects of Later Excesses ; and Nervousness of Tempera ment ; the next sources of importance are hereditary and acquired disease ; and, lastly, men aro prevented from marrying by the effects of disease—which, when ill-cured, leaves traces that forbid all im pulse towards wedlock. In each of these instances it is unhappily too common for the sufferer to consider his case beyond remedy, and be fails to consult even his own medical attendant. such will find all obstacles removed by reference to a valuable Manual on Nervous Debility and Generative diseases, the thirty-seventh thousand of which has just been published by its Authors, J.

E m i o s re e t x h a e l ted i e than mere passion, every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, . but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from Its influence, er can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity Itself become neglected under the enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. llow is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tra6t asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be beyond measure deplorable Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work er.titled SELF-PRESERVATION, Illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, awl diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa tions oa tke secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from solitary habits, excesses, cc• infection. By SAMUEL L.VMERT, M.D., Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and much neglected branch of medical practice, and the author having ob. tamed the hithest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat ment of these diseases.

La'Mert on the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him I In the book before us such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosopky and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who aro tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. I father may trust It in the hands of his boy. isy un taught innocence the hook is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awfu ef l voice the breathing in s h e st e of pages is likely to prove a s strikingly benicial as admonitins a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine.

The commission was then formally adjourned to Tuesday, the sth of December next. THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. We have received Cape of Good Hope papers to the 15th of August, which fully confirm the state,. meat regarding the capitulation entered into betweoii Pretorious and Major Warden, the British Resident at Bloem Fontein, by which the latter consented to withdraw beyond the Orange River, thereby sur rendering the Queen's authority to that portion of the colony over which he had presided. The following official details,`, with other particulars, will be read with interest : (From the Graham's Town Journal.) Our readers will be prepared, from the communi cations inserted in our last number, to learn that all British rule beyond the Orange River had fur the present ceased to exist—the three magistrates who bad been stationed there having been forcibly expelled by the rebellious Boers. - It now appears that Major Warden, on his return to Bloem Fontein, after having so narrowly escaped being made a prisoner, proceeded to make his little post in some way defensible, at the same time dis patching Mr. Rex to the Boer's camp to ascertain their ulterior object. 'Whilst waiting for his re turn a letter, of which we subjoin a copy, was received from Pretorius, Major Warden learning from the bearer that Mr. Rex was detained a prisoner. He refused to give any reply until he was released. This was acquiesced in, and Mr. Rex reports that the Boers' leger or camp was within two miles of Bloem Fontein ; that it consisted of about 1,200 men ; that all communication with the colony was cut off, and that all attempt at resistance was useless. Major Warden thus having no alternative, proceeded to treat, and the terms given below were agreed upon. TO MAJOR WARDEN, BRITISH RESIDENT. Bloem Fontein, July 17, 1848.

(Signed) A. W. PRETORIUS, Comdt. Gen. Bloem Fontein, July 17, 1848. At the conference held this day in front of the vil lage of Bloem Fontein with Mr. Pretorious, Com mandant-General of the Emigrant Far:nets, the Bri tish Resident and Commandant-General entered into the following engagement, viz. :- 1. That the troops and inhabitants of Bloem Fon - tein shall evacuate the village in two days from this date, viz., on the 20th instant, taking with them all moveable public and private property of every der scription, and proceed to Colesberg, five or six wag gons (or as many more as may be procurable) being furnished for that purpose by Mr .

Extract of a letter from Burgher's Dorp, dated 25th July : " Mr. O'Reilly has been compelled to yield, and has retired with his family to the farm of Mr. Adam Gilfil lan on the Stormberg Spruit." Our: communication with the front and with Kafir land has been totally interrupted this week, owing to the heavy rains which fell on Saturday and Sun day last. The march of the troops has ben greatly impeded. Those that left this place on Wednesday are still on this side of the Fish River, and owing to the non arrival of the usual posts, we are not aware whether these from Kafirland have as yet been enabled to cross the Konap River, as nothing effective can take place until the arrival of this addition to the small force already at Colesberg MONEY MARKET.—The premium on gold at Paris is 14 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 25.50; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being .25.45, it follows that gold is 0.20 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 437 Ty r mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. p-r ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.11; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being it follows that gold is 0.11 per cent. dearer in Hamburgn than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London is 109 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and Amerioa being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.58 per cent. against England; but the qu9ted exchange at New York being for bills at GO days' sight, the inter( st must be deducted from the above difference. A FAVOURED LOVER.—The affair of Bruce, who was murdered, and found by the aid of aclairvoyant, ac cording to the account, induced a 3oung married man. who was on a visit in the city, to call on one of these ~eers, and ascertain in what occupation his wife was engaged at htr residence, some ninety miles away. She is sitting in the parlour," said the lady, " and every once in a while she looks out of the window, as if expecting some one." " Strange," said the gentleman, " who can she expect?" " Some one ent .rs tho dopy. She seizes. him, ~and .earessep him - "TieszYb`ei his all a hoax; My wife is true to me," interrupted the gentleman, nettled and worried by the green-,yed monster.

Much excitement prevail e d i n t h e streets, and suppressed murmurs of sorrow and awe ran through the crowd of spectators assembled about the Court House. The police kept back the multitude with fixed bayonets, and in a short time all had dis appeared. CLOSE OF THE COMMISSION. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, addressing their Lord ships, said—My Lords, in consequence of the length of time the commission has lasted, the onerous duties discharged by those engaged in these trials, and the protracted attendance of jurors from distant parts of the country, it is not the intention of the Attorney- General to proceed'any further at the present sittings.

WOOLWICH, OCT. 24.—The Vivid steam-vessel, Cap tain Sinithett, brought over on Sunday morning last, to Dover, his Royal Highness Prince Adelbart of Bavaria and suite, on his way to Lisbon, via Southampton. The Iphigenia, formerly occupied by the Marine So ciety boys, was towed up to Deptford on Monday, and moored at her f ormer station, to be appropriated exclu sively as an h os pi ta l ship for cholera cases. The Wye, reserve, was towed from her moorings op polite the west end of Woolwich Dockyard, and is now stationed alongside the Unite', for the purpose of having the cholera cases which may subsequently occur- kept separate front the other patients. Tho number of cases of cholera on board the Unite hospital ship up to twelve o'clock to-day has been forty-three, two new cases yes terday, and three to-day; fourteen discharged as reco vered; ten convalescent, and thirteen fatal. Captain Fitzroy, acting superintendent of the Woolwich Dock yard, deserves great credit fur his exertions to place the convicts formerly in the Justitia in a more healthy loca lity than they previously occupied, and Lieutenant Ro bertson was most active in superintending their removal to the Hebe and Sulphur hulks, opposite the dockyard; but the inhabitants of the town are very dissatisfied, as new cases have since occurred, and intend petitioning that they should be removed further down the river than they formerly were. About one hunired of the healthy convicts formerly on board the Justitia have been taken to the Royal Arsenal to work there to-day, and will be taken back in boats to the Bebe in the evening: IRELAND. THE TRIALS 41T CLONIVIEL. DUBLIN, TUESDAY.—It will be seen by the follow ng report, that sentence of death was yesterday passed upon Messrs.- Mtklamb, frDonohoe, and Meagher, after 'whieli the Commission adjourned to the sth of December next. The speeches of the ill fated convicts are deeply interesting. The time for carrying into effect the executions on O'Brien, M'Marnis, O'Donohoe, and -Meagher, were yesterday entered in the judge's book, but it was not announced to any of the parties most deeply interested. A communication was made to Orchard, Tyne, M'Donnell, and the other peasants, against whom bills for treason had been found, that if they pleaded guilty ",a mitigated punishment would be inflicted upon them. Their attorney intimated that if the sentence were only 18 months' imprisonment, they would ,withdraw their plea of not guilty ; if, however, the Crown insisted upon " transportation," his clients were resolved to take their chance of a trial. They would not even join in their challenges. The Attorney-General declined this, and they will be tried at the adjourned commission, to be held in December next. The correspondent of Saunders gives the following account of the scene in the Court-house on Saturday night : " CLONMEL, OCT. 22.—The jury in Mr. Meagher's case were about three quarters of an hour consider ing their verdict, and the period which intervened between their withdrawal to their room and their re appearance in Court was one of great interest. A number of constabulary arrived, with muskets and fixed bayonets, and were stationed round the dock, and at the several doors. The corridors and various passa ges were also filled with armed men. The Court-house was dimly lighted, and, to use the metaphorical lan guage of Mr. Butt, the gloom that pervaded it was slightly diminished, or rendered a little less intense, by the dim and partial lights; and one could scarcely avoid conjuring up the shadows of those who had been hurried to the grave of the felon, and beholding them flitting around that dock where the prisoner, with all his genius, power, and chivalry, stood upon the very spot which had been trodden by many an assassin, and from which so many had been hurried to an ignominious death.' It was a scene that the graphic and gloomy Dante could have described. £he night was dark and rainy, and the dismal, dreary appearance of the streets, in which few persons but armed constabulary were to be seen, was in keeping with the aspect of gloom that met the eye in the in terior of the building. The feeling could not be sup pressed that it was a melancholy termination to the career of a gifted young Irishman, who, had he directed his talents to the attainment of prac ticable and useful objects, might, in the senate or at the bar, have advanced the interests and promoted the prosperity of his native land. The nn e uett f aithl'i l tiugiitsrli, will, in the end, lead to the ruin of the rash and unreflecting possessor, and blast those prospects whose very brilliancy and promise render downfall and discomfiture more overwhelming. The prisoner, for some time after the Judges had re tired, sat in the dock with a cloak folded about him. He conversed with his friends, chatting and laughing with them, in apparent good spirits. The High Sheriff told him he might retire, which he did, and remained in the cell till the Judges returned into court. At twenty minutes after seven o'clock their Lordships resumed their seats, and the jury were in- ' formed that they were ready to receive their verdict. As each juror entered his serious and anxious look ' was a sufficient index to the decision ' • and the solemn ' and reluctant manner in w hi c h t h e foreman handed the issue paper to the Clerk of the Crown must have removed any hope of an acquittal that the friends of Mr. Meagher entertained. The Clerk of the Crown put the usual question, How say you, gentlemen, is Thomas Francis Meagher guilty or not guilty ?' The foreman replied, in a faint, low voice, Guilty; The word ran through the court, and soon whispered from lip to lip in the streets. The foreman read from a paper the re • commendation of mercy, on the ground of the youth of the prisoner, and other reasons, and handed it to the judges, who made no reply. They then rose to retire, and gave the order Remove the prisoner.' Mr. Meagher bowed to them very respectfully, shook hands affectionately with some friends, and was re conducted to the cell. The dock was so dark, having only a dim lamp pendant from one of the bars, that the prisoner's figure was little more than visible. The prison van was then driven to the court-house, and the horses were backed to the little door which leads from the cell into the area before it. The gates were j a ,ko to keep, _Tit the cm,* find,v9,..ophem mak „re,;opengi g)r ,tka departtike 4 Ate prisorier4 constabulary - were arranged in such a manner as to .stirrounerthti conveyan ce , Which; gaiarded- and environed, was driven as slowly as a hearse to the gaol, and Mr. Meagher was escorted to his apartment. It is expected that the three prisoners who have been convicted will be brought up for judgment to-morrow. The sentence, which must be pronounced according to the law, is one of the most appalling that could be devised —hanging, decapitation, and quartering ; but it is very generally desired by all classes in Clonmel that justice should be tempered with mercy, which blesseth him who gives, him who receives, and drop peth like the ge ntle c dew from heaven.' " o THE SIMISSION IN DUBLIN. Yesterday !Michael Moran, J o h n Joseph Moran, APCormack were indicted; Micha el .il Moran and John for 'maliciously assaulting wtititetiihntehnithit withki police constable John Byrne, by 3a . g a da g. d ger, and the . other two prisoners for aiding an d abetting assault. There were five other abetting . in counts in the indictment, in which Michael Moran was charged with as saulting, with intent to disable, to do grievous bodily harm, &c., and the two other prisoners with a i ling din a nd abetting. The prisoners s everally pleaded not guilty. The case was, a fter a few words from Mr. Curran, ordered to stand over. counsel for M'Cormack, fienry Mac Ilree was indicted CASE OF ASSAELT.---.th. for assaulting M. The traverser plead ed Guilty. It appeared that the assault had been committed under the following c ir cu mstances :—The traverser Majesty's frigate had served on board Cas t or, performing . on the New Zealand station, and while on the side of the duty there received n ea a rl s y ac c e o r s e t b h l i o m w his life, and from he slowly recovered. His head, which very the effects of which subsequent state of forbidden him, became such that the use him, but on his return to this of spirits was forbid country, while in cold c omp any with a friend on e d ay, th e and wet, he was indu ce d to par take of some liquor ; weather being h e afterwards w ent with his friend to the house of t he w prosecutor, with h om the former was acquainte d, and while ther e took a glass of punch. The effect di of drinking upon hi m was to bring on a temporary delirium, under the influence of which he struck the prosecutor a .violent blow on the front part of the head w ith a stick, without having received anything like pro vocatio n. H e was imme diately given into custody, and removed to the station-house, but on recoverin g . from th e d e li r i um he remembered nothing of w h at . ad occurred. Th ese o the sly Court, mentioned facts were disclosed in anaffid.av ? it made by th e tra verser himself, by the directiopnrevoif u counsel (Mr. Curran) ha viuo. them in explanation of the case. The affidavit further stated that when the traverser was made aware of what he had done he offered the prosecutor 101. by 1 way of reparation, being. all the . money he was pos sessed of, and expressed t h e greatest sorrow fur what had happened. The prosecutor was sworn and stated th a t h e h a d u ndergone much suffering from the w oun d , a dan gerous one, from which he was not yet recovered, and bad besides been put to expense for medical treatment t _ • A gentleman was examined, who stated that he had known the traverse r for tw e l ve mont h s, and had always f oun d hi m a mild and gentlemanly person. Judge TORRENS, addressing the traverser, said that he had made all the reparation in his power for that which he had done, by pleading guilty to the accusation of the law, and by offering compensation to the person who had suffered from violence of which he had been the instrument. Ills Lordship dwelt on the unfortunate nature of the occurrence, and the statement made by the prosecutor as to his sufferings, and said he hoped it would weigh on the traverser's mind ao as to cause him hereafter to ab stain from ardent spirits; and said that in the opinion of the Court the sum of 101. compensation offered by the traverser was not sufficient, and that 41. should be added to it. The traverser should in addition be fined 6d., and should be confined until such time as he paid the fine and the compensation, for a period not exceeding six months. APITAL SENTENCES ON M‘MANUS O'DONOHOE, AND MEAGHER. I ADJOURNMENT OF THE SPECIAL COll. MISSION AT CLONMEL. CLONMEL, MONDAY. The Lord Chief Justice Blackburne, Chief Justice Doherty, and Mr. Justice Moore, took their seats on th e b enc h at h alf-past ten o'clock this morning. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Scott, Q C., Mr. Lynch, and Mr. Sausse, appeared as counsel for the Crown. The Attorney-General was not present, having gone..tot4iblin. to ; attend the Commission in that city. Mr. Butt, Q.C., Sir - Colman O'Loghlen, Mr. O'Callaghan, and Mr. Francis Meagher, were in at tendance as counsel for th e prisoners who had -been tried and convicted. The SOLICfrOIIo•GENBRAL desired the Clerk of the Crown to bring to the bar the following prisoners : James Orchard, Patrick Denis Tyne Patrick O'Donnell, W m . P er t, Th omas Finane, John Bren nan, John Preston, and Thomas Stack. The prisoners were accordingly arraigned. They are all men in humble life, labourers and mechanics ; two or three of them are fine stout men, particularly Stack, the rest are miserable and impoverished crea tures. Each of them pleaded not guilty to the in dictment, which charged them with high treason. They were some of the followers of Mr. W. S. O'Brien, and the overt acts imputed to them were similar to those set forth in the indictment under which that gentleman had been tried. Mr. O'CALLAGHAN applied to the Court, as counsel had done in all other cases, for lists of the witnesses and the jury panel, and handed in a plea correspond• ing with those previously put in. He made the pre liminary motion merely to prevent its being said that the cases of th e prisoners then at the bar were distinguished from the others because no claim had been put in for the privileges which counsel had con tended should be extended to them. The SOLICITOR- GINERAL said he would assume that all which he had done in the previous cases had been done in that case. The pleas were then signed by the prisoners, and handed in to the Clerk of the Crown, and the Solici tor-General directed them to " stand by." They were then re-conducted to the cell. Mr. BUTT, Q.C., asked the Court if it would con sider the points which Mr. Whiteside and he had urged on Saturday evening? The CHIEF JUSTICE said that the Court had them under their consideration ; they did not think there was any substance in them, but they would give them all the weight which they might deserve. indeed avail m y se lf o f thi s so l emn mom ent to vindi cate my ysentiments fear. The u rnents, arid of that conduct, i n a li g ht, I think, far different from that i n w hi c h th e j ur y by w hi c h I have co and nt country m3 N . v c il o l n judge duet o But f t h les have esc mt n i o such - been convicted have viewed them ; and perhaps the sentence you, my Lords are about to pronounce will be remembered only as the severe and solemn attes tation of my rectitude and truth. Whatever may be the language in which that sentence will he spoken, I know that my fate will meet with sympathy, and that my memory will be honoured. In speaking thus accuse me not, my Lords, of an indecorous presump tion. To the efforts I have made for what I conceived to be a just and noble cause, I ascribe no vain im portance; nor do I claim for them any high reward. But it so happens, and it will ever so happen, that they who have tried to serve their country, no matter how weak their efforts may have been, are sure to receive the thanks and blessings of its people. With the country, then, I leave my memory, my sentiments, my acts, proudly feeling that they shm ß. lh an u ep i c i s ns l : t t l r y eaclgoy o au f i entertain lfnde t s h ethl e t require no vindication from me this day. A jury of my countrymen, it is true, have found me crime ah neorn out d returnedt o hi fel ;influencedl slightest ei which gfinht ot as tsso l htttehh i f i e ' ers a yeo s ilinie l en l i nrulgddsnilteciottthyfe. have vro. resent ment ,be,tFhenheatoin-t4r by the charge of the Lord Chief Justice, they, per of. that.charge? Any strong obserrations upon it I scene ; but I would earnestly beseech of you, my Lord-you, who preside upon that bench—when the prejudices and the passions of this hour have passed away, to appeal to your own conscience, and ask of it—was your charge, as it ought to have been,. im partial and indifferent between the subject and the Crown ? My Lords, you may deem this language unbecoming in me, and perchance it may seal my fate; but I am here to speak the truth, whatever it may cost. lam here to regret nothing that I have ever done—to retract nothing that I have ever said. lam not here to crave with lying lip the life I con secrate to the liberty of my country. Far from it. Even here—here, where the thief, the libertine, the murderer, have left their foot prints in the dust—here in this spot, where the shadow of death surrounds me, and from which I see an early grave in an unanointed soil opened to receive me—even here encircled by these terrors, that hope which beckoned me to the perilous sea on which I have been wrecked, still consoles, ani mates, and enraptures me. No! Ido not despair of my poor old country—her peace, her liberty, her glory. For that country I can now do no more than bid her hope. To lift this island up—to make her a benefactor to humanity instead of what she is—the meanest beggar in the world—to restore to her her native powers and her ancient constitution—this has been my ambition, and this ambition has been my crime. Judged by the law of England I know this crime entails the penalty of death. But the history of Ireland explains my crime and justifies it. Judged by that history I am no criminal—(and turning to his fellow-prisoner M‘Manus)—you are no criminal (and to O'llonohoe), you are no criminal, and we deserve no punishment. Judged by that history, the treason, of which I have been convicted, loses all its guilt—is sanctified as a duty— will be ennobled as a sacrifice. With these seati• ments, my Lords, I await the sentence of the Court. Having done what I feel to be my duty—having spoken now, as I did on every occasion during my short life, what I felt to be the truth, I now bid fare well to the country of my birth, my passion, and my death—that country whose misfortunes have invoked my sympathies—whose factions I sought to still— whose intellect I prompted to a lofty aim—whose freedom has been my fatal dream. I offer to that country, as a pledge of the love I bear her, and the sincerity with which I thought, and spoke, and struggled for her freedom, the life of a young heart ; and with that life all the hopes, the honours, the en dearments of a happy and an honourable home. Pro nounce, then my Lords, the sentence which the law directs, and I trust I will be prepared to hear it, and meet its execution. I trust, too, that I shall be pre pared with a pure heart to appear before a higher tribunal—a tribunal where a judge of infinite good ness as well as of infinite justice will preside; and where, my Lords, many, many of the judgments of this world will be reversed. [A low and protracted murmur of applause per vaded the conclusion of the prisoner's most eloquent and impassioned address. T r); into tics e n this court it was my intention, in the performance of the very painful duty which devolves upon me, not to have prolonged your stay at that bar by any length of observation. You, and each ofyou, appear there having been con victed by the verdicts of three successive juries of the crime of high treason—the crime of the greatest enormity known to our laws. I feel bound to say this, that it is the deliberate, dispassionate, and calm opinion of the Court that the verdicts which were found by those juries, and the verdict which was found by a former jury, could not have been other than they were—that no honest, fair, impartial, and conscien tious jurors, attending strictly to their oaths and listening to the evidence that was produced in this court in the course of these unusually pro tracted trials, could have come to any other conclu sion than that which they have done. They have pronounced you one and all guilty of the crime of high treason. That crime consists in having levied war in this county within and during the last week of the month of July—of having levied war for trea sonable purposes—and that you, and each of you, more or less participated in, excited to, and prepared for, and were yourselves some of you more, some less, actively engaged in the furtherance of that project. In order to constitute the crime of high treason by the levying of war, it is no ingredient that the means should be proportioned to the end sought to be ac complished, or that there should be a rational pros pect of success. The parties who engage in such transactions become responsible if they have arrayed, assembled, collected, drilled, and prepared those NA ho by force endeavour to accomplish that object—the common object that was in . view. It is not, I am 4 titiWo 4 lay, to y 4 foilfeltance on your part that gliCh .may term it—which jzre,lcp out. in _that, weeki wrta-,-sbreught-;Ace sa- 4, speedy conclusion.., It is not clue to yon;,,_ miler God attributable to the fidelity and the bravery of the police force. When I reflect on what might have been the consequences if that police force, either seduced by promises or intimidated by threats which were made use of, had yielded to the advances that were made to them, if they had been overwhelmed by the congregated numbers that assem bled and attempted their destruction, or if they had failed in dispersing those bands of rebels who assem bled around them on the hills, I think there is no fair man who, looking at and contemplating what the state of this country might have been, will not see how rapidly a temporary success might have added to the numbers of the insurgents, and how soon this country might have been deluged in blood, and given over to all the horrors of a civil war. It is from that we have escaped by the fidelity and by the bravery of the police foree. lam very far, God knows, from wish ing to say one word at this moment that can raise or en hance the feelings which some of you may endure. But I cannot, in looking to what was the state of this country in the month of May last, avoid adverting (without entering into particulars of it) to that authentic speech which was given in evidence upon the last trial; eloquent no doubt it is; but who can avoid seeing, in the perusal of that speech delivered by you, Mr. Meagher, on the 6th of June, a terrible picture of what was at that time the state o f this country, and the calamities which were impending and meditated, and from which, by God's assistance, we have es caped. I have told you that it was my wish to abstain from enlarging or giving any details, and I shall do'so. I shall merely add this observation, that from the commencement to the conclusion of this commission, which has now extended to the fifth week, there has been a perfect coincidence in the views of every mem ber of this bench as to the law ; and if the obseria tions of.the distinguished judge who presides here did seem to you, and I can make every allowance for their doing so, to press and bear severely upon you— perhaps, in a calmer moment, when you come to reflect upon it, you will see that it was from the very nature of the transactions themselves that those com ments legitimately arose, which appeared to you to press with undue severity on you. Perhaps, when you come to reflect dispassionately, you will see this in the same light, and I trust that you may be more recon ciled than you appear at present to the justice of the unhappy fate which awaits you, and which there is not an individual with a heart to feel who must not deeply deplore. I shall not now detain you longer. I have merely to exhort each of you to reflect on the awful situation in which each of you at this moment stands, and to prepare for the dreadful fate that im pends over you. We have not failed to send, as wry our.duty, to the l e ord-Licutemint, the ~TepornmenArk tions with which the juries in your respective cases have accompanied the verdicts that have been found against you. But you must be well aware that it is with the Executive Government, and the Executive Government alone, that the fate of those recommen dations rests. And we in the discharge of our mos' anxious and painful duty have now only to proceed to pass upon you, and upon each of you, the awful i NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. The Admiralty Dockyard Committee of Revision re. turlped to Portsmouth from the Admiralty on Monday morning, and continue to sit d a ily a t t h e Ad m i ra l Super intpndent's office. It was rumoured yesterday at Portsmouth that the sit.ation of assistant master attendant haft been abo lised, and that in future the masters of the Victory and Illustrious are to do that duty, receiving each additional pay of 601. per annum. APPOINTMENTS. Mates—G. A. W. Welsh, to the Powerful, $4, at Splthoad; Clement C. Day, to the Vengeance, 84, in the Mediterranean. Midshipmen—Charles Atkins, to the Fisgard, flag. ship, at Woolwich; George H. Broadhead, to the Ven geance; Murray T. Perks, to the Kingfisher, 12, fitting at Portsmouth; Richard Morris, to the Fisgard, flag ship, at Woolwich; Lord Guillawore, to the Victory, flag-ship, at Portsmouth; George R. Bell, to the Driver, steam-sloop, at Portsmouth. Masters' Assistants—William Long, to the gedina, seam-packet, fitting at Woolwich; J. G. N. Millett, to the St. Vincent, 120, flag-ship, at Spithead. Naval Cadet—The Hon. John B. Vivian, to the Victory. Gunner—Philip Yoe, to the Rifileman. THE SHIPS AT SPITHEAD.—The St. Vincent, 120, Captain S. C. Dacres, with the flag of Rear-Admiral Sir C. Napier, K.C.8., is reported ready for sea. When she will go, and where she will be ordered, or whether she will go at all, is at present uncertain. She is kept quite ready. The Prince Regent, 92, Captain W. F. Martin, is changing her armament, and will be ready for sea so soon as that is completed. The increase of her arma ment is net of that extent as to require so many addi tional men as anticipated; and it is net likely that she will at present have any increase to her complement. At any rate, it is considered that 850—that is, an addi tion of 30 marine artillery—would be an ample propor tionate increase. The Powerful, 84, Captain the Hon. R. S. Dundas, C. 8., commenced entering her additional complement yesterday, but there does not seem to be any hurry about it; she is not expected to go to sea be fore the middle of next month. She will enter 15 subor dinate officers, 30 petty officers, 186 seamen, 18 first class, and five second-class boys. CAPE ()a GOOD HOPE.—By private letters from Simon's Bay, down to August 15, we find that the Ad miral had not arrived there from the Mauritius. The Eurydice, 26, Captain T. V. Anson, remained, the Gal kilt Captain carrying on the duties of the dockyard and port. The Nimrod, 16, Commander Belgian, had arrived from St. Helena and her cruise. SUPPLY ON COALS AT MADEIRA.—The Dee, Royal Mail Steam-packet Company's vessel, left Madeira on the 26th instant, having completed her quantity of fuel in the short space of six hours. That the private es tablishment of Mr. Blaudy, at this island, was enabled, in an open roadstead, to ship through a surf 100 tons in six hours, is a gratifying exhibition in a foreign island of what a British merchant can effect to forward the in terests connected with steam navigation. We believe that the home ports of Woolwich or Portsmouth seldom equal the shipment of 100 tons of coals in six hours. THE 'SCREW-SOHOONERS.—The Reynard, 8, Com mander Cracroft, will not be refitted for sea, at Ports mouth, before the 10th of November. The Plumper is preparing to be tried with :the Revn.r ,- ; et, carp i.seness at-Woo-I . tor this vessel. The T u n h (l e er A Admiralty r Shirpshootei (iron), Lieutenant-Commander Bailey, ar sahlteyers havej -0s:111;i/443 ar rived at Portsmouth from Woolwich on Monday, at 11.32 .s-se., and went into harbour. The Rifleman (wood), Lieutenant-Commander Crofton, is there fitting for trial. La Hogue, 56, steam guard ship at Sheerness, is to have the midship part of the orlop beams and carlings in the hold removed, and iron ones substituted. The Arrogant, 46, screw-frigate, is ordered to be re moved from Woolwich to the basin at Deptford, to be fitted. The Dauntless, 24, screw-frigate, at Portsmouth, is not to have her stern altered for the present. The Niger, screw-sloop at Woolwich, will be ready for further trial by the 26th inst. The Driver, 6, steam-sloop, Commander Johnson, re turned to Portsmouth from the chops of the Channel, the wind having shifted to the westward, and went into harbour yesterday morning. In consequence of com munication by the electric telegraph, she again hoisted the blue peter and is ready for sea. Her destination is not known, but it is supposed that she will convey the Irish political convicts to some place of transportation. The Driver looked in at Plymouth in coming up the Channel. requiring such extensive re pairs,The Styx, steam -sloop, has been ordered to Deptford to have them ta k en in hand. ,Commander Lord A.

She will be out of the hands of the dockyard and engineers by the 31st instant. The Llewellyn, Holyhead steam - p acket, Master-Com mander Gray, will have the ac cident to her cyfinerh.ii, repaired by the contractors , Me ssrs. Miller, Raven and Co., by about the Ist of December. This vessel, when on the Holyhead station, ran the distance across in three hours and a half ; and the Banshee, we be lieve, has done it even within five minutes less time than this. The Garland, 1, Dover steam-packet, Master-Com mender Smithett, now at Woolwich, is not to have her new boilers now; but the old ones are to be patched and repaired, and by lowering the pressure on the valves she is to work them some time longer. She will be ready to leave Woolwich by the 29th. The Myrmidon, whose boilers have been worn out, although she has not been 100 days under steam since she was built, is to have her defective boilers removed, and new ones to be substituted. The defects in machinery and hull are ordered to be tinkered up again without delay. The Rhadamanthus, 2, steam-transport, Master Com mander Aylen, and the Alban, steam-transport, Master Commander Bradshaw, remain on the coast of Ireland as floating barracks for the battalion of marines, the former having 318 on board, off Waterford, and the latter with 82, lying off Bantry. All is quiet in that quarter—the men were constantly employed in shell practice. PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—A rather curious accident, completely unavoidable, happened to-day. The Lym ington, passage-steamer, a vessel somewhat less in s'ze than the Ryde, passage-steamer, was coming out of Portsmouth Harbour, close ih to Blockhouse beach, strong ebb tide was running, a wherry with, fortunately, only one waterman, was coming into the harbour, and was keeping close under Blockhouse Point. Both ves sel and boat cleared 'the point at the same time, and the latter was completely severed in two. Fortunately the steamer was low, so that the boatman was enabled to get hold of her gunnel rod jump on board, much to the sur prise of the captain of the steamer, for so suddenly did the steamer and boat come in contact, that so soon as the wherry was seen she was run over. The boat was towed into harbour in two parts. FIVE r.m.—Wind, westerly, moderate breezes, with dark cloudy weather. THE CHOLERA AT MALTA.—The regulations with regard to the fumigation of letters, &c., are most strictly enforced at Naples. The Bull-dog steam-sloop, we learn, by advices just received, has been sent from Malta to Naples with the letters for Sir William Parker's fleet just taken out by the mail, but that every letter, paper, or parcel, was cut open in the most careful manner and taken to the health house ashore, as the cholera was known to have broken out at Malta. The Bull-dog was placed in quarantine on her arrival. The boats of the ships of the fleet were sent to the health-office for the letters after they had been subjected to the usual pro cess. The officer in charge of the Queen's boat, a lieu tenant, got into trouble for disregarding the quarantine regulations. Whil s t h e was wa i t i ng for the letters for his ship he got impatient, and took a off letter that had not been fumigated. The officer of quarantine imme• THE SENTENCES. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL then prayed the Court to bring up for judgment the three prisoners who had been found guilty. Directions were accordingly given to conduct the prisoners, Thomas Francis Meagher, Terence Bellew M'Manus, and Patrick O'Donohoe, from the goal, and shortly afterwards they were placed in the dock. The Clerk of the Crown, having read over the in dictment, and in the usual manner read the re cord of the arraignment, the pleas of the prisoners, and their convictions, asked each of them what he had to say why sentence of death should not be passed upon him ? The first prisoner whom he addressed was Mr. M'Alanus. - Clerk of the Crown—T erence B e ll ew M`M anus, 11r. 111`Manus tta.- c ac c ah s h a ll not enough of a Christian and enou,s.. stand the awful responsibility of the question that has been put to me. My Lords, standing on this my native soil—standing in an Irish court of justice, and before the Irish nation—l have much to say why sentence of death or the sentence of the law should not be passed upon me ; but, my Lords, on entering this court I placed my life—and what is of much more importance to me, my honour, in the hands of two advocates; and, my Lords, if I had ten thousand lives and ten thousand honours I would be content to place them under the watchful and glorious genius of the one, and the high legal ability of the other. My Lords, lam content in that regard. I have something to say which no advocate, however anxious, can utter for me. I have this to say, my Lords, that whatever part I may have taken through any struggle for my country's independence —whatever part I may have acted in that short career—l stand before your Lordships now with a free heart and with a light conscience, ready to abide the issue of your sentence. And now, my Lords, perhaps this is the fittest time that I might put one sentiment on record, and it is this—standing as I do between the dock and the scaffold—it may be now or to-morrow, or it may be never, but whatever the re sult may be, I have this sentiment to put on record, that in any part I have taken I have not been actuated by animosity to Englishmen, for I have spent some of the happiest and most prosperous days of my life there; and in no part of my career have I been actuated by enmity to Englishmen, however much I may have felt the injustice of English rule in this island. My Lords, I have nothing mare to say. It is not for having loved England less, but for having loved Ireland more, that I stand now before you.

The C OURT having assented, Mr. O'Donohoe said—My Lords, I beg to say that the Attorney and Solicitor-General have conducted the came ag a i ns t me f a i r l y, b ut str i ct l y, an d I fi n d no fault with them nor with the evidence given against me, so far as it was acted on by the jury. My Lords, I do complain that in such a country the jurors summoned to try me, a stranger, for a political offence, wer e exclusively political opponents, and with such a panel I regret that your Lordships did not, as my counsel requested, allow my jury to have been called from those who had not served, or been re jected, on a former trial. My jury, thus selected, could not be supposed to overcome all bias, and I be lieve they found a most mistaken verdict. Mr. Justice Moore, in his direction, told the jury that if I assisted Mr. O'Brien whilst engaged in a treasonable design, I was guilty of treason, although I might not know of his intent, and from their recommendation it appears that they found me guilty on that direction. To one unlearned in the law, and supposing that treason depends on intention, it seems contrary to common sense that I can participate in a treasonable design of the existence of which I am ignorant. I do not, however, presume to dispute the law as you Lordship has stated it, but no earthly judge is infallible; and as the doctrine is so startling, and one stamped with the authority of' Mr. Moore's high constitutional character, would form a precedent dangerous to the lives and liberties of the best men, I humbly request your Lordships to reserve the point for the considera tion of the Judges. If your Lordship be in error that error ought to be corrected—if not, it will be a protection to every one to know that the law so laid down has been confirmed. It is not fit on this solemn occasion to defend my opinions or conduct—l will, therefore, only say that those opinions have always been tolerant, sincere, and consistent. I am grateful to my eminent counsel, Mr. Butt, for his eloquent and truly able defence, the more so because that defence was generously given without fee or reward, and given, too, to his political antagonist. I cannot but express my admiration for the ingenuity and great talent shown by my junior counsel, Mr. Francis Meagher, and his zeal in my defence. I also beg to thank my solicitor, Mr. Laffan, for the ability with which he conducted my case, and the general exertions made by him on my behalf. I thank your Lordships for this patient hearing. The Clerk of the Crown then asked Mr. Meagher what he had to say why the sentence of the law should not be passed upon him. Mr. Meagher, with fluency of utterance, and re markable firmness of manner, then spoke as follows : —My Lords, it is my intention to say a few words only. I desire that the last act of a proceeding which has occupied so much of the public time should be of short duration ; nor have I the indelicate wish to close the dreary ceremony of a state prosecution with a vain display of words. Did I f ear t h at, hereafter, when I shall be no more, the country I have tried to serve would think ill of me, I might 10 the PROPRIETORS of the MIDLAND RAILW AT.
