MY FIRST SUIT OF CLOTHES. My first suit of clothes, I remember them still, And the price that they cost, for I've still got the bill. If I recollect rightly, E.

And bein; but young, as of course you'll suppos, My p irents obtained me my first snit of clothes.e - - My mother. one day, with a smile that bewitched, Said she thought it high time for the boy to be breeched. If so, said my father, the job shall be done, And, mark you, we'll go to E. MOSES and SON. You've heard of the dress their Establishment shows? Let us start off at once for the first suit of clothes. So away we all jogged, near to Aldgate churchgate, And perceived two large houses, which now are made eight. I wish, said my father, on entering these, To look at your juvenile dress, if you please. And the very first glance, as you'll doubtless suppose. Made him bargain at once for my first suit of clothes. I scarcely need say 'twas a capitri one ; And a suit that did credit to MOSES and SON. Such, indeed, was the case, though the price that was paic l , Was quite a new thinz in the tailoring trade. And the fact, that I still buy of them, plainly shows, That they've not been ren , ss in my last suit of clother. Z.

' MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON have been honoured with instructions from the Proprietor to OF FER for SALE by AUCTION, at the Lion Hotel, Warrington, on WEDNESDAY, October 18, and following day, commencing each day at Eleven o'clock (if not previously disposed of), the above truly magnificent and very valuable FREEHOLD ESTATES, together nearly 7,000 statute acres, embracing some of the finest land in the county, and almost in a ring fence. - . _ They embrace the important Manor of Bold, with its splendid man sion, gardens, park, noble woods, lake, and plantations, all in excel lent order, and distinguished as the Bold Hall Estate, and comprising within itself about 4,300 acres most superbly timbered, and well stocked with game; also the Burtonweod Estate adjoining, containing numerous small farms and other properLC ; togetherwith the Sutton Estate, closely contiguous, consisting of about 1,030 acres of excellent land skirting the prosperous and rapidly improving town of St. Helen's, and containing mines of superior coal" and also beds of clay of great 'value for pottery purposes. The whole of tree fine estates (with the exception of the parks and demesne farm, which are in hand) are let to responsible tenants at moderate rents, and produce between 11,000/, and 12,000/. per annum, exclusive of royalties and rents receivable from coal mines, which must annually increase. The limits of an advertisement %Al only admit of a brief outline of the numerous natural and great local advantages of this most important and splendid domain. The Man sion of Bold stands upon a fine elevated part of the park, which contains about 600 acres, richly studded with noble timber, and sheltered by venerable oak woods of the finest growth. Within the park are the remains of the ancient hall, moated round, and which, from a period little later than the conquest, has been the seat of the maternal ancestors of the present owner. The Sutton Estate possesses rare advantages, is intersected by the London and North Western and St. Helen's and Runcorn Gap Railways, and, from its position and nature, its - value is annually increasing. The St. Helen's Coal-field, containing an average thickness of 70 feet of coal, is believed to extend under a considerable portion of the Sutton Estate , part of such mines are already in lease, and must be the source of a vast revenue. The Sutton station of the London and North Western Railway is distant about a mile from Bold Hall, affording easy access to all parts of the kingdom. Warrington is distant from Bold live miles and a half, Liverpool only 14, Manches ter 20, and London less than 200. The Bold Estate may be pur chased without the Sutton and Burtonweod Domains, which will be offered in various lots. _ _ _ For further particulars and cards to view the property and to treat for the purchase apply at their offices, In Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, London: particulars may also be had of Messrs.

Mere exalted than mere passion, it sears high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, buL more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from Its influence, or can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity Itself become neglected under the enthral"ng power of LOPE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marr.k,e. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a derdly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, ss change at the very altar, and after a life time spent, in the fulfilment 4o: every engagement, snap the very-con tract asunder which should be raost Wading to as 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 fulfilmeut of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being mast subsequently be beyond measure deplorable I 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 unaroyed 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 entitled SELF-PRESERVATION, illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa tions OR the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from solitary habits, excesses, of infection.

Happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him 1 In the book before as such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without impairing *lie 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 philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By un taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine. _ _ _ This Work may be had price 2s. 6d., of Kent and Richards, 52, Paternoster-row; Hannay, 63, Oxford-street; Starle, Tichborne street, Haymarket; Gordon, 146, Leadenhall-street ; Mansell, 115, Fleet-Street ; or, free by post, for forty-two stamps, from the author's residence, who may be consulted on these disorders personally, or by letter, daily, from Ten to Two, or from Five to Eight. 37. BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. CELIBACY. —Singleness is not always the con sequence of disinclination, disappointed affection, or a diffi culty in meeting with a fit helpmate. Thuusands of the unmarried would with joy embrace the sacred renditions of Matrimony, did they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered page of life reveals innumerable instances 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 be 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 from accepting other offers. There is scarcely a street where this history is not enacted; and yet with the exercise of common foresight, its frequency might be CO lessened as to ren= der an instance rare throughout the entire kingdom. The disqualifications for Marriage have more than one primary emcee ; 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, aid he 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. L. CURTIS and CO. Consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith-street, Seho-square, London, entitled MANHOOD ; the Causes of its Premature Decline, with Plain Directions fir Perfect Restoration, &c., &c.

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. Cape of Good Hope papers of the sth of August have just reached us, from which we learn that Pre torius, at the head of 400 men, reached Bloem Fon tein on the 17th of July, whence he forwarded a messenger to Major Warden, the British resident, offering terms of capitulation. Major Warden, find• ing himself altogether in a defenceless position, and believing that if he refused to accept the proposition made Pretorius could compel him to yield by bring ing a force of 1,000 men against him, he assented to the conditions, which were, that he should retire beyond the Orange River, unmolested, with all public and private property belonging to British subjects—thus permitting the Queen's authority, for a short time at least, to be expelled from the northern side of ;,that river. We suspect that when Sir H. Smith reaches Natal he will teach Pretorius a lesson that ha will not soon forget. We annex par ticulars (From the Routh African Covinsercial Advertiser of August 5.) The intelligence received by last post from Coles berg, on this side ofjthe Orange Myer, and from Philippolis and Bloem Font e i n , b e y on d i t , brings the history of the i nsurrection under Pretorius down to the 26th of last month. On the 17th of July Pretorius advanced to Bloem Fontein, at the head of 400 mounted men, and halted about two miles from the village, from whence he dispatched a messenger to Major Warden, the British resident, offering terms of capitulation to prevent unnecessary bloodshed by a hopeless resistance to so superior a force. Major Warden's whole force con sisted of 57 men, including 16 recruits, with 42 others, civilians, leaders, and drivers of waggons, and eight deserters recently pardoned. He was also encumbered with about 200 women, children, and helpless natives, who had fled to the village for pro tection. Major Warden was further informed, on authority which he relied on, that should he reject the terms offered to him, Pretorious could bring against him in a short time a force of probably not less than 1,000 men, It does not appear that anything like a fort or place of strength had previously been constructed at Bloem Fontein, and although Major Warden had been for some days labouring to throw up some kind of pro tective works, they were not in a condition to stand a siege. In short, Bloem Fontein was a mere resi dency, and not an advanced military post, by which an enemy could be held in check until relieved, nor was the ,force stationed there sufficiently strong to fall back with safety on the co l ony , w h en su dd en l y e nveloped by a Tigilant assailant. Under all these circumstances, which, of course, will be subjected to strict investigation hereafter, Major Warden accepted the terms offered by Preto rius, which were that he should retire beyond the Orange River unmolested, with all public and private property belonging to B r i t i sh subjects, Pretorius himself furnishing a certain number of waggons for this purpose. The natives are allowed to retire to their respective homes or tribes, and the native chi e f s we re to be informed of this arrangement. All this had been carried into effect, and British authority, for the moment, has been e x p e ll ed from the northern side of the Orange River. Mr. Biddulph, resident magistrate at Wenburgh, his clerk, Mr. Rex , and Mr. O'Reilly, another magis trate in the Caledon district, are, it is supposed, by this time all in safety in or near Colesberg. Mr. Rex, according to an agreement, went to Pre torius's Camp a t Wenburgh, t o s e e an d r e p or t upon the insurgent forces, and returned as a prisoner to Bloem Fontein, where he was set at liberty. The general correctness of this statement, collected from various sources, but confirmed by them all, may be relied on. COWES, OCT.

S 17 Ny OCTOBER 9, 1848. IRELAND. DUBLIN, SATURDAY MORNING.—The Freeman's Journal of this morning contains the letter addressed to Colonel (now General) Napier by Mr. Thomas Young, and which was offered (but not received) in evidence by the counsel for Mr. Smith O'Brien. It runs as follows : "My dear Napier,—Sir H. Bunbury told me of your wise determination not to become a Parliament man,' at le Ist for the present. The offer was very tempting, and you have the more merit in declining. I refrained from writing to you while the matter was undecided, for I did not wish to obtrude my opinion, but I felt that reason was against your acceptance, as your health, your purse, and your comfort would all have suffered by your attendance in the House of Commons. The history must have been laid aside. You could not, moreover, have been a calm and silent member, but would have been exerting yourself to push onward the movement faster than it probably will march, or than, perhaps, all things considered, it is desirable it should march. " Let us go back a moment. " The display of energy and a readiness to act on the part of the people when the Duke of W— was on the eve of coming in, was greater far than I expected. I speak not of the Cockneys, but of the men in the north —Glasgow, Newcastle, Birmingham. Are you aware that, in the event of a fight, you were to be invited to take the command at Birmingham. Parkes got a frank from me for you with that view, but had no occasion to send it. Had he written I should have fired a dispatch at you with my friendly and anxious counsel, and en treaty to keep you quiet, and not to stir from Fresh ford. It is not well to enter early into revolutions ' • the first fall victims. Wh a t d o y ou thi n k would have happened ? The Reformers (Place, ac.) talked big to me, and felt assured of success. The run upon the banks and the barricading of the populous country towns would have brought matters to a crisis, and a week they—the Reformers—thought would have finished the business. They meant so to agitate here that no soldiers could have been spared from London and the Army is too small elsewhere to have put down the rebels. In Scotland, I believe, the most effectual blow would have been struck, and it seems difficult to have resisted the popular movement. The Tories, however, say the Duke would have succeeded. No doubt the discipline under which soldiers live might have proved a stronger element than the public enthusiasm,—i. e., unless the latter was universal or extensive ,and then it would have carried all before it. The task would have been to bring back society to its former quiet state! Thank God, we have been spared the trial; but, as a matter of speculation, tell me what you think would have been the result. Am I right in 'my conjecture that you would have refused the Birmingham invite, and kept your sword in its scabbard? "Yours ever truly, " T. Y. " Thanks for your first volume. Jones has come back better." The Freeman thus explains the circumstances under which this extraordinary letter has been laid before the public : _ _ " Before we place this remarkable document before the public it is due to the gallant, brave, and generous soldier to whom it was addressed to state how its exist ence became known, and the circumstances under which its contents have been divulged. The gallant Napier returned an indignant reply to Mr. Young, stating that he received his sword from the hands of his Sovereign, and that against that Sovereign he would never un sheath it. The Whigs, through the secretary of their chief, applied to the loyal soldier, requesting that the letter should be returned, in order that this written evi dence of the conspiracy' might be destroyed. Colonel Napier's reply was worthy his brave deeds and honoured name. He peremptorily refused—stating, at the sane time, that he would never divulge its contents, or allow it to be made public, until the Whigs should capitally prosecute a British subject for the offence of which they themselves were guilty. But the same soldier's honour that pledged him to secrecy under certain circumstances pledged him to render this letter and the conspiracy it disclosed matter of history whenever the Whigs should dare attempt to deprive of life a British subject, whose only imputed crime was to follow the course of policy adopted by themselves in '32. That daring attempt— daring as coming from conscious conspirators—has been made upon the life of Smith O'Brien, and the gallant General has kept his word." [PRICE 51). `for no man ever entertained a greater horror of blood shed, or a more decided hostility to the invasion of pro perty than Mr. O'Brien. Had it not been for the single letter to the Mining Company there was not a shred of evidence in the case to go to the jury to consider. The purpose of writing'the letter:to the Mining Company was to protect their property from injury, and that the workmen in their mines should not suffer for their generous devotion to him. But then it was said that he enforced that by a threat; but surely if a threat were contained in it, it was not that of a man of authority— of an emperor—or of a commander! "If the Lish revolution should succeed (he wrote) the whole of the property of the Mining Company would be confiscated." But the jury should recollect there was to be a r,e,l revolution in the country—at least so it was said— and he need not remind the jury what effect it created on all of them when proclamations wore issued on the subject by the Lord-Lieutenant. Did they not all believe that it had actually broken out, before they even heard of the existence of the letter to the Mining Company? Mr. O'Brien thought to work on the fears of the company, but he did so solely and exclusively for the benefit of those who had protecttd him. It was no part of his (Mr. Fitzgerald's) duty to explain that letter, but it was for the Attorney-Genera; to make out the intent; and if he did not show them it was treasonable, or if they entertained a doubt that it was not consistent with the entire case, it was for thine to find a verdict of acquittal. With regard to Mr. Duffy's letter, he (Mr. Fitzgerald) admitted that Mr. O'Brien intended to bring about a revolution—but it was to re store the constitution of 1782 by the means of repealing a single Act of Parliament—Mr. Duffy thought that if Mr. O'Brien kept behind, a bloody chaos would ensue. For what purpose, then, did Doctor Gray—(A laugh)— he meant Mr. Duffy—write that letter to Mr. O'Brien? He said, " You are behind the movement, and the con sequence will be that chaos will follow." All his client wanted was justice administered according to the law of the land. The Learned Gentleman having resumed his seat, The Court consulted for a few moments, after which The Lord Chief Justice BLACKIIIIRNE, addressing the prisoner, said,—William Smith O'Brien, I have now to inform you that if you mean to address the jury you arc now at liberty to do so, and that you cannot be heard after the Solicitor-General has commenced his address for the Crown. If you wish to consider with your friends whether you will address the jury or not, we will retire for a short time, and on our return you can state your dalsion. • Mr. O'Brien—l am able to answer the question at 'once. lam quite ready to leave the decision of my case to the jury as it stands and as it rests on the arguments of my counsel; and I have only, in conclusion, to thank the gentlemen of the jury fur the patient attention they have given to the arguments in the cue. • The Court then adjourned for a short time, and on their Lordships' return, The SOLICITOR-GENERAL rose to reply on the part of the Crown. The case which had undergone so much serious and deliberate investigation was nearly drawing to a close, and the duty devolved upon him of making some observations en the whole of the case as it appeared in evidence. They must all feel indebted to the gentlemen of the jury for the serious and marked attention they had paid to the pro gress of the case, because it showed they felt the im importance of it and the extent of the responsibility which rested upon them in their decision. They must all be sensible that the question was one by which not merely the man at the bar, but the dearest interests of society were intimately affected. The offence with which the prisoner was charged was the highest known to the law. It involved the most serious and important intee rests of the State. The consequences were so awfal, that in proportion to the enormity of the crime, the jury should pay the case their most profound atten tion, and should be satisfied, on proof unquestionable and unambiguous, of the guilt of the party charged. At the same time, if the jury should be satisfied of his guilt without reasonable doubt or hesitation, it was their bounden duty, at all risks, and regardless of the consequences, to give a just and fearless verdict. The counsel for the prisoner called on the jury for a just and impartial verdict. Surely those concerned for the Crown could ask them for nothing else. In the case before them, the jury must feel he had a duty to per form very different from that which devolved upon the gentlemen concerned for the prisoner at the bar. Every latitude the law could by possibility allow they were fairly entitled to avail themselves of, in order to accom plish the acquittal of their client. His duty was dry and ought to be unimpassioned. He could only say he would do his duty to the best of his ability, and that in the exe cution of it he would be obliged to occupy a considerable portion of their time. It would be the last address from counsel, and then the duty would devolve on the Court, standing impartially and justly between the Crown and prisoner, to lay the facts before them, and to state what were the bearings of the law on the case. Mr. O'Brien was charged with the! offence of high treason. In ad dressing himself to the evidence he would endeavour to simplify the charge as much as possible, and to that end would confine himself to this c a se—th a t Mr. O'Brien had committed treason by levying war against the Crown. They had heard much of the exhibition of the national will, and of th©; manner in which the popular feeling should be expounded. He would not venture on so dan gerous a sea of definition. The risk and haz ird of men assembling together in enormous bodies, armed and organized for the purpose of exhibiting the popu lar will, might be allowed by the constitution as legal. but one step beyond that would involve every man of them in the guilt of high treason. With respect to the evidence adduced of the past life and opinions of Mr. O'Brien, he (the Solicitor-General) was not there to deny that a person might avow peculiar political opinions, and might institute clubs and associations to express those feelings and opinions to the public. Mr O'Brien was an ardent Repealer. But if, actuated by pride, pre judice, zeal, or ambition, any person should exceed the limits of the law, and was betrayed into such an offence as that with which the prisoner stood charged, it was no defence to produce his former companions to state that the opinions he had previously expressed did not amount to the crime of treason. If he were to be found guilty on the evidence, such opinions could not weigh a feather in the scale. Mr. O'Brien was charged with the levy of war. His Learned Friend (Mr. Fitz gerald) bad told the jury that this was an artificial crime. He did not understand what that meant. The charge against Mr. O'Brien was for havingcommitted the plain definite offence of high treason under the statute of Edward 111. The levy of war under tort statute must be for a general public purpose. It would not do if it were to assert private interests or to avenge a private wrong, no matter how much violence or force were used in doing so. It would be his duty to call their attention to the evi dence on which it was sought to establish this charge against the prisoner, first remarking that a levy of war for any purpose, real or imaginary, provided it were. general and public, was high treason. The Attorney- General, on the part of the Crown, did not seek to go further than March, 1848, when Mr. O'Brien delivered a speech at the Confederation, which he would ask them to consider, that they might ascertain the purpose of the insurrection which broke out in July. He believed the speech to be most important, because it clearly and unam biguously established the fact that a change had come over Mr. O'Brien's political opinions between March and July. The revolution in France, which had subsequently caused so much human misery and so much national calamity, had warped and influenced the minds of men so far that many of them were led to extremities of which they previously would have entertained no notion. Mr. O'Brien accordingly seemed at that time to look to measures he had not before contemplated, and in that speech to set forth the means by which he sought to ac complish his object. The Solicitor• General then proceeded to read the speech which has been so often the subject of observation during these trials, and to dissect it pas sage after passage. The words used by Mr, O'Brien were, he argued, plain upon this point—that the inten tion of employing physical force to effect changes in the government of the country was prominent in his mind, and that the only question on the subject was the time which he would select or its employment. The Crown did not prosecute the speech as an overt act of treason, but they put in evidence because it cast light on the in surrection in July. He threatened the landlords with confiscation of their property to the national treasury ; he alluded to the establishment of an Irish national guard, an Irish army, and an Irish Parliament, and he advised the people to fraternise with the soldiers and police. In these and all other similar passages Mr. O'Brien seemed distinctly to look forward to a revolu tion to be effected by force. He spoke of French aid, and invoked French sympathy in their "coming strug gle." What construction could the jury put on these words but that which they bore in their plain common acceptation ? It was plain ". Lamartine at that time was in such a position that he did not wish to get into difficulties with foreign countries, and Mr. O'Brien was anxious to explain to his party that the reception he had received in France was not an discouraging as it appeared. The Learned Solicitor-General then read the speech made by Mr. O'Brien on his return from the mission to France, in which he stated that he had not gone there to solicid armed aid, and that if he had done so, the nation would not have been justified in giving him an answer. But he went on to remark that there were men there from whom they might expect aid at a subsequent pe riod, and to allude to Arthur O'Connor, who was " un fortunately unsuccessful in 1798." The Learned Si lici tor-General next read the letter from the American sympathisers in Philadelphia, signed by Mr. Tyler, and contended that the mission of Mr. Meagher to America which was spoken of in the letter of that gentleman from Cahirmoyle, was undertaken in teforence to the promises made by the writer. Next he came to Mr. Duffy's letter which was found in Mr. O'Brien's portmanteau, and in which the former urged the prisoner to beware of the errors of Lafayette, — while lie assimilated their posi tions. The Learned Gentleman commented with great severity on the spirit and purpose of this letter. Duffy's letter had been addressed to the prisoner to sti mulate and urge him into this fatal movemf nt. The in sidious suggestions it contained were sent by Mr. Duffy in order to operate on Mr. O'Brien's proud nature, and to induce him to take the leadership, and that step which had led to such deplorable results. For Mr. O'Brien ho felt sincere and deep regret. He wished that unfortunate gentlemen had not listened to the diabo lical tempter who was luring him on to the terrible pre cipice on which he stood. THE STATE TRIALS. CLONIIEL, OCT. 6.—This morning Mr. FITZGERALD addressed the Court and jury on behalf of the prisoner at the same side with Mr. Whiteside. He said he ad dressed them as counsel for the prisoner of whose life it had pleased God to make them the arbiters. If the jury entertained a doubt of the guilt of the prisoner, they were bound to give him the benefit of it. The crime with which he was charged was artificial—it was a mere creation of law, and in too many cases was a mere fiction. Why his client had not been prosecuted for the more obvious offence which he had committed it was not for him to conjecture. Whether the explana tion of the reason for adopting the present proceeding was reserved for the Solicitor-General, it was not for him to say ; but upon the reason to be assigned might depend the life, property, and honour of his client. His client stood charged with two offences—levying war against the Queen, and compassing her death. Upon the present indictment, therefore, as it stood, there were two questions for the jury to consider—first, whether his client did levy war against the Queen ; and secondly, whether ho conspired to levy war against her. The Learned Gentleman then went into a long and learned argument to prove that no evidence had been produced upon which his client could be legally convicted. He then went on to say that the Attorney-General charged Mr. O'Brien with having made a speech at a meeting held in March, 1848, for the purpose of congratulating the French upon the change which had taken place in their form of go vernment. It was alleged that the clubs were organized immediately after the return of the deputation from France. Where was the proof of that? The clubs were in existence so long ago as August, 1847. How were they to be worked? By organization. Their object was to be carried as Catholic emancipation was obtained —as the Reform Bill was won—as the corn-laws were repealed —as every exhibition of the national will was made by those who entertained opinions respectimt poli tical reforms and political changes. He did not dispute an organization of the clubs; but where was the evidence of intent? In allusion to the meeting of the confede rates on the 14th of July, where is the evidence of what happened there? That meeting alarmed the Goverment; and why, he should ask, did not the Attorney-General oil the jury all about it? Three speeches made by Mr. O'Brien were proved, bat the jury should recollect they were made in excting tiimes—one at the French revolution—another when the Treason Felony Act passed, and a third when Dublin was proclaimed. The Learned Gentleman then dwelt upon the speech of Mr. O'Brien on the 19th of July, as indicating the openness of his course, and his resolution that nothing should be done in secret. Who had corroborated the informer Dobbyn? Evidence was given of the name of the club, the Red Hand Club, having been upon the window; but was this sufficient evidence of the existence of the club? What was there to show a treasonable intent up to the 22d of July but three speeches delivered at a period of great excitement? He admitted that the organization of clubs was to show the popular strength, and doubtless there was a reference to an ultimate appeal. Had not popular demonstrations taken place in Ireland to show that the popular will could not be resisted? This was contrary to the spirit of the constitution, but at such a time as the present no man could be convicted of treason for such an act, and it would be very unjust to make Mr. O'Brien the victim for the sins of all. The question was, had the prisoner intended to avoid arrest, and did his acts manifest that intention? The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to comment upon the various documents put in evidence on the part of the Crown, and concluded by asking whether there was a single one amongst them in which this prominent notion did not appear—the fact of a warrant being out for his arrest,and the necessity for his protection? The Learned Counsel having contended that the prevail ing notion in all Mr. O'Brien's speeches was a desire to evade arrest, went on to refer to the reports furnished by the police of those speeches, with a view to show that they ought not to be relied on by the jury as trust worthy evidence against his client. A small body of mounted troops arrived in front of a barricade, defended by an overwhelming number of armed men. The ques tion was put, " Do you mean to arrest Mr. O'Brien?" and upon a negative reply being given, the Dragoons e were allowed to pass on unharmed and applauded by th people. The Learned Gentleman then referred to the affcay at Ballin garr y, w ith a view to prove that although the facts bore more strongly against his client, yet there was nothing proved which was inconsistent with the object his client had contemplated—escape from arrest. There could be no doubt that the fatal events which occurred at Ballingarry would ever be the subject of deep and bitter anguish to his client. Be that as it may, how did he act? Precisely as he (Mr. O'Brien) acted at Mullinahone; and unless they believed the words that had been attributed to him on that occasion, it was plain he could have b een no party to the firing. He (Mr. O'Brien) was between both the police and the people at that place, and unless those words were used by him in a moment of passion, of heat, or excitement, it was utterly and entirely impos sible for any man in his senses to give that order. But it was wholly immaterial for his purpose whether his client gave that order or not. Why had they (the counsel for Mr. O'Brien) laboured so much and so anxiously on that part of the subject? Simply because their client had intimated to them that he valued life much less indeed than the imputation cast upon his cha racter by the charge that he made use of words of which he never thought, which he could not use, and hieh were in all respects foreign from his inclinations and intentions. The Learned Gentleman then referred o the gross and palpable inconsistencies and discre pa in the evidence of Sub -constable Moran—which twas contradicted by the testimony of Constable Mahony, and tl the fact that on cross - examination of Moran by Mr. Whiteside, when asked why he did not fire at Mr. O'Brien, he (Moran) rep li e d t h at " he did not hear him use , That Mr. O'Brien never used the words there could not possibly be the slightest doubt, No man was ever so unfit to use them, Mr. O'Brien (I_ , him)—lt is not fair to make those remarks in Mr. D , i's absence. The SOLICITOR-GEN ..L—No one feels mor' deeply than Ido the positierrin which Mr. O'Brien stands. : He was urged on to his ruin by others, and I repeat that he listened to them. Mr. O'Brien (in a louder voice)—lt is unworthy, its the absence of a gentleman who is himself on trial at•the time, to make such observations as those that have fallen from the Solicitor-General. I beg at once, and most distinctly to repudiat e all connexion with or participa tion inert ,em. The .S seemed .to influence Mr. O'Brien, he would pro ceed to read aid - Atter without any further comments. The Learned Solicitor-Guleral did so, and having read Mr. Meagher's letter also came to the consideration of Dobbin, the informer's evidence. Counsel ,r the pri soner finding the damaging nature :of: that witness's tes timony, endeavoured to sleivrthat no such club as "the Red Hand' . had ever Existed, and that his-whole story was false. Dobbin had been examined on Saturday last. If he swore falsely, they could have brought plenty of witnesses to contradict him. They had not done so; the Crown bad proved the existence of the club by two policemen. At the meeting of the 19th of July Mr. o'l3rien, in reference to the proclamation of the 18th, requested that it should not be made the occasion of a general collision. Dobbin attended a meeting held early the same day for the purpose of defeating tho proclamation, at which Mr. Brenan moved a reso lution, for an immediate outbreak, which was not supported by Mr. O'Brien, because he did not think it would be successful "at present." This taken in connexion with the subsequent advice was powerful proof of Dobbin's testimony. Go vernment knew these facts on the 20th, and on the 21st Lord J. Russell rent down to the House and applied for the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act, because it was clear no time was to be lost if the Government and the country were to be saved. Then came the meeting fur the election of the Executive Council,' on the 21st of July. Tho Solicitor-General then read over Dobbin's evidence of this transaction. It would be for the jury to say whether DObbin's statement.e as not corroborated by events and facts. The crisis had then arrived, and the steps taken by Government be came absolutely necessary. At that meeting five gen tlemen were elected as members of an Executive Council. Mr. O'Brien—Will you be good enough to read out the names of those gentlemen? The SOLICITOR GENERAL—Certainly. They are Meagher, Devin Reilly, M.Ghie, Dillon, and O'Gor: man. Mr. O'Brien, as each name was pronounced, referred to is small slip of paper in his hand, and at the con elution of the list nodded his head as if satisfied. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL continued—The balloting papers were proofs of Dobbin's evidence, as they had been traced up to Lalor ' one of the persons who was present at the meeting, by one of the witnesses. Mr. FITZGERALD observed that they bad not been traced up to him. The Lord Chief Justice BLACKBURNE referred to his note, from which it appeared that the witness alluded to deposed that he found the balloting papers in a roil On Lakes bed, but could not identify them. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL proceeded—lt was at all events in evidence that Dobbin proved some of them clearly, and swore distinctly to one in his own writing, and others that he had seen written. Mr. Whiteside, in observing upon the balloting papers, had said that some of them must have been withdrawn, for if correct, the name of Father Kenyon would have appeared upon some of them, and he animadverted with severity upon his client being prosecuted whilst a Roman Catholic was allowed to go free. He (the Solicitor-General) was sure that his excellent and Learned Friend Mr. Whiteside would not lead the credit of his high character to a ca lumny as foul as it was false, and that they (the jury) would give the Government, of which he (the Solicitor- General) was but a humble member, the credit that if any evidence were put forward against any person, whether a layman or a minister of the church, proceedings would be instituted,without regard to his station or religion, to bring the delinquent to justice. It had been contended by the counsel for Mr. O'Brien that the object he had in view was his personal safety from arrest. It was for the jury to say whether that limited purpose was the object of the insurrection or whether it was a general one. It was for them to say whether when he was at Mr. Ma her's house, when Mr. Dillon and Mr. Meagher arrived, he and his friends did not think that the crisis had ar rived, that the time had come for the grand insurrection, and that the rallying cry should be the personal security of Mr. O'Brien, because it was more exciting from the po pularity of that gentleman. If his wish to avoid arrest were the only object of Mr. O'Brien, why when he first heard of the intention to suspend the Habeas Corpus Act did he not withdraw from the country until that suspension had expired. He might have gone from Mr. Maher's either to Cork or Waterford, and quitted the country. But he did not do so, and he thought the in ference was that when be left Mr. Maher's he proceeded to and slept that night at Dobeny's, at Cashel. They would remember that a portmanteau was found at that house, and that Mr. Maher in his evidence admitted that Mr. O'Brien had brought the portmanteau to his house. Mr. O'Brien wished to correct the Learned Solicitor- General. Mr. 'Maher had not said it was the same port manteau. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL thanked Mr. O'Brien for the correction. It was for the jury to inter whether the portmanteau was the same. The Learned Gentleman then traced the subsequent proceedings of Mr. O'Brien, and argued that it was most unreasonable to suppose that the guard of twenty armed persons which Mr. O'Brien had around him was to save him from arrest, for that number would have been insufficient to have resisted the strong arm of the law. It was the mockery of a body guard. They must also observe that at the time the marching and drilling was proved to have taken place no warrant had been issued for Mr. O'Brien's arrest. But did they ever hear of such a thing as raising barricades and having a large body of armed men to resist a per sonal arrest? But the evidence of Pemberton, the engi neer of the Mining Company, put the case beyond all Citubt. That witness, a most respectable person, had spoken to a conversation which he had had with Mr. O'Brien at Kenrick's Cross on the morning of the 28th, in which he spoke of the people in other parts of the country being ready to rise; that a warrant was issued for his arrest, and that if he were taken he should be hanged. They would also remember that two persons at least who had been appointed members of the war coun cil of the League, if they believed Dobbin's evidence, were present throughout the proceedings at Mullinahone and Ballingarry. But hew was the letter to the Mining Company to be explained? It spoke of revolution, and contemplated a control over the property and a confisca tion of it to the national treasury. Could those things be answered by the mild suggestion that Mr. O'Brlen's wish to avoid arrest was the cause of all? They were inexplicable on the principle of the conduct of any rational being, and irreconcilable with any other conclu sion in the mind of intelligent and honest men than that they were assembled for a general purpose. With re spect to the words said to have been uttered by Mr. O'Brien at the widow M'Cormack's house of " Slash away, boys, and slaughter them all," he was willing to believe that, considering the high character, mild dis position, and the education of the prisoner, he had not used them—he believed Mr. O'Brien's honour was dear to him, and gave credit to his assertion, and that the words had proceeded from a man of less education and humanity; but then Mr. O'Brien was present at the time; he was at the head of the party who were en gaged in that fatal conflict. He had gone through the lacts of the case, and it would be for the jury to say whether the object of Mr. O'Brien was not a general insurrection. He had endeavoured to discharge the painful duty which had devolved u pon and impartiality, and he now left the case in th e him with firmness of the jury. The Lord Chief Justice BLACKBURNE proceeded . to y t h o i u s h t h i g e h a s t s r i i s b t u a n u a o l e , i s t um now bec o meswsm7Adustythteooorgtfaern otof whleh you have a right to ask, and which it is our duty to afford you in considering your verdict on this most momentous question, and which will receive from you that calm, dispassionate, and conscientious consideration which its importance deserves. Your conduct since you have been impannelled in that box affords to us ample security on which we may rely. I will not impress nor attempt to impress upon you, because I feel it would be unnecessary, the importance of the case, or its claims on your patient and anxious attention. I will pass im mediately to the discharge of my duty by expressing a confident hope that your attention will be fixed ex clusively on the evidence which you have heard, and that nothing you knew or heard before you entered that aid undertook the high trust now confided to you will have the slightest influence on your decision •and that it will be founded, as it ought to b e , so l e ly on your conscientious view of the evidence you have heard. The charge against the prisoner at the bar is that of high treason and it will be my duty, in the first instance, to simplify the subject so as to enable you distinctly to apprehend what the law is upon it, and t•eing undtratood, wi I enable you aptly to apply it to the evidence yen have heard. There are two distinct species of treason stated in this indictment. The first five counts are for levying war against the Queen in her realm, the last and sixth count is for compassing the death of the Queen. I shall at once relieve you from any misapprehension of the last count, because, though there is what in strictness of law must be considered evidence to sustain that count, that evidence is more clearly and distinctly applicable to the counts for levy ing war, and your attention may, therefore, be confined altogether to the charge of levying war against the Queen in her realm. In order to sustain that charge you must be satisfied that there was an insurrection— an insurrection by force, and that the object of that in surrection was a general object. It had been complained on the part of the prisoner that there had been some extension of the doctrine of high treason in cases which are properly not to be considered within the meaning .if " war against the Queen." I do not enter into any consideration of that argument. Whether the words of the Act of Edward 111. may or may not bo extended by a strained construction is not the question, because, if the evidence on which the Crown relies sus- tains any of the allegations which they adduce to sup port it, there was unquestionably an object of a general kind in the case before us; for, w hether the object of the insurrection was to effect a repeal of the Act of Union, or to effect any change in the constitution of the Go vernment of the realm, or to dismember the empire by effecting the separation of the United Kingdom and con stituting Ireland into a distinct sovereignty—whether any or all of these was the object or objects, the case plainly and clearly comes within the meaning of the statute, as I before stated to you, and therefore the levy of war for its attainment would be plainly high treason. I need not advert to tho authorities which have been stated iu the course of the consideration of the case; but there is one passage from a judgment of Lord Tenterden which is very distinctly applicable to the case before us. He says, "Insurrections, Or tie ye he ea ;he pH- Led ng he of ed 'is :ht RII
