One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em .sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the pled of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un zomprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set dement. Honour and justicedernand that health sheuldform an item in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriaga requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which cevers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused .the prolific source of mischief aof greater or less Injury to the constitutio nal and vital powers. nd The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of whieh this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and co Reproductive of their relative conditions in health and disease. It t s u deservedly req uires the closest att ention and study, for whabj be of more bnportance than the preservation of man the health and of the physica l ca p abilities of which that every the should be possessed. It unfortunately happens victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether r acquired in early life or from th e follies of advanced age, suffe front their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously' entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking !or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes va- of .lisea,e, sympathy with the suff erer, and, above all, secrecy, in riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the Inedical man who can show by his posse , sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a Guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

FIRES IN WARWICKSHIRE. — Since the termination of the Warwick Assizes, on Tuesday last, a man has been committed to the county gaol to take his trial for wilfully setting fire to wheat and other ricks, at Salford, near Alcester. Yesterday (Thursday) morning, about half-past eleven o'clock, smoke was perceived issuing from a bark-rick at Kenilvrorth, the property of Messrs. B. and W. Draper, very extensive tanners of that place. The rick contained about 200 tens of bark, and its esti • mated value is 1,6001. ; and, at the time our corre spondent wrote (six p.m.), the fire was but partially it sub dued. The rick being thatc hed with straw, is sup posed that the latter ignited by a spark falling from an adjacent chimney. The property was insured in the County Fire- office, the engine of which, together with the Warwick engines, were on the spot as soon as prac ticable, but the fire had so entered the heart of the rick that it was necessary to take it entirely to pieces. St range to say, that although Kennilworth has 5,000 inhabitants it is yet minus a fire engine.

The proceedings upon this important and extraordi nary case came to a rather sudden and unexpected ter mination on Thursday last. We had the whole of the following in type, and intended to have published it on that day, but was prevented in consequence of the press of Parliamentary matter and the foreign and Irish news. The object of the Bill in this case was to annul a mar riage that had taken place between a young lady of the name of Field, between 18 and 19 years of age, and a person of the name of Samuel Brown, who was upwards of 52 years of age, and had formerly been a butler in a family in Wimpole-street. Our readers will recollect that we some time since gave a detailed account of the case when Brown was tried and sentenced to six months' imprisonment at the Central Criminal Court for a false entry of the marriage upon the marriage register of Trinity District Marylebone Church.. Immediately upon the conviction of Brown proceedings were taken to annul the marriage by the introduction of a Bill into the House of Lords for that purpose. The second reading of that Bill was appointed to come on some time since, and upon that occasion the Lords present were the Earl of Devon, chairman, Lord Lyndhurst, Lord Campbell, the Earl of Radnor, the Earl of William, the Earl of Lonsdale, Lord Sudeley, Lord Montfort, &c. Sir F. Kelly, Mr. Rolt, Sir John Bayley, Mr. Walford, and Mr. Austin appeared for the petitioner ; and Mr. Ballantine represented Samuel Brown, the husband, by whom it was alleged that the young lady had been threat ened and coerced into the marriage against her own free will and consent. It appeared from the statement of the Learned Counsel in opening the case, that the circumstances con nected with the present proceedings were of the most ex traordinary character. In 1843 Mr. James Field, the father of Miss Esther Field, died, leaving the petitioner and a younger brother orphans. By the death of her father Miss Field became possessed of landed property to the extent of 1,2001. a year, and about 40,0001. in money. Should her brother die this amount would be doubled. Mr. Robert and Mr. John Brown, the brother of the Samuel Brown who had coerced the young lady into a marriage, were the trustees and executors to the will of James Field. In the month of April, 1847, Miss Field, who was then 17 years of age, went to reside in the house of Mr. John Brown, at Tring, in Hertfordshire, where he carried on the busi ness of a brewer and innkeeper, and in his business be was assisted by Samuel Brown, who had previously been a butler in a family in Wimpole-street. Samuel Brown was at this time 52 years of age; and, upon Miss Field going to his brother's house she used to call her guardian father, Mrs. Brown mother, and Samuel Brown uncle. She treated the whole as relatives. On the 18th of May, 1847, Samuel Brown proposed, to her astonishment, mar riage to her. She laughed at him, but when she found that she was persecuted and annoyed she told him she loved another, and could never love him, for he was old enough to be her grandfather. Brown then began to threaten her, saying that if she did not marry him he would shoot himself; and having fbund out who was the object of her affections, threatened to do him some injury. Brown afterwards renewed his threats in such a way as to cause the young lady before the day was over to consent to become his wife. On the following day he left the house, and did not return until the 21st or 22d of May, when she begged to be released from her promise, as she could not perform the contract, and again adverted to the great disparity of years. For a few days Brown remained quiet, when he again began his system of persecution, and continued it until the 18th of June, when he again obtained her consent to the proposed union. On that occasion he showed her a letter, which he had addressed to her brother in consequence of her conduct. During the whole of this extraordinary pro ceeding he made her pledge herself to secrecy, and by gross and wicked fraud he succeeded, on the morning of the 19th or 20th of June, after having obtained her promise, in bringing her to London. While on the way she again told him that her heart failed her, and that she could never become his wife; when he said, " Nonsense," and that resist ance was out of the question. On arriving in town they proceeded to the residence of the parish clerk, and afterwards to Trinity Church, Marylebone, where the marriage was solemnized. Even at this stage of the proceedings Brown was guilty of deception, for he said they were to be married at St. George's Church, Hano ver-square, by license, instead of which they were mar ried by banns. He told her that if any questions were asked he would answer them. After they were married they returned to Tring about half-past five o'clock. In this most unfortunate and distressing affair there was one happy circumstance connected with this marriage—it had never been consummated. There had been no co habitation. On the 24th she went to the house of Mr. Smith, solicitor and banker, at Hemel Hempstead, where she at present remained. It was to Mr. Montague Smith, son of this Mr. Smith, that she was attached, and in answer to something he said she then for the first time mentioned her marriage, and afterwards made the same communication to Mr. Smith, who carne to town, and it was not till he bad gone to several churches that he found out where the marriage took place. The Learned Counsel then called the following witnesses, whose examination, together with the Learned Counsel's (Sir F. Kelly) address, occupied their Lordships two days : Miss Field was called and examined, and her evidence corroborated the statement of the Learned Counsel, and also repeated in the most positive terms that she had been forced into giving her consent to the marriage by the threats and violence of Samuel Brown, one of those threats being that he would not only do her much bodily harm, but would do Mr. Montague Smith, to whom she was attached, as injury. Under these cir cumstances she consented to the marriage. It was also stated that Samuel Brown had been prosecuted and con victed, and was at the present moment undergoing his sentence of six months' imprisonment, for fraud in the publication of the banns, and that he bad been so in dicted by order of the Court of Chancery. Edward Whitridge examined by Sir J. BATLEY—I am butler to Mr. Clitheroe, of 31, Wimpole-street, and have been in his service for seven years last October; and prior to that time Samuel Brown lived there as butler, and has often called at the house since, but has never stopped or slept there since I was in the service. Cross -examined—It is from hearsay that I know of Samuel Brown having been in the service of Mr. Clitheroe. James Field examined by Sir F. KELLY—I am bro. ther to Esther Field, and I am now seventeen years old. I have been at Harrow School, an d s i nce t h e death of my father have been under the care of M r . J o h n an d M r s. Brown. At the house of th a t gent l eman I a l ways spent my holidays, and my sister did the same. Mr. Samuel Brown resided in the house. I had no knowledge of his intentions towards my . sister until he informed me of their marriage , of which I did not approve. I used sometimes to pay a visit to Mr. Smith, a solicitor at Hemel Hempstead. He was an old friend of my father's. "Slr. and Mrs. Brown always manifested a dislike to my sister's visiting Mr. .Smiths family, and of course I went there the less often in consequence. My sister and my self regarded Mr. and Mrs. Brown in the light of our parents. Everything that was done for us was done by Mr. and Mrs. Br own, and no other individual that we knew of ever interfered in the management of ourselves or of our affairs. I remained at Harrow till last June. ' Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE—I have stopped at Mr. Smith's during the holidays. I was once taken father. I here are to e v e r that nl gentlemanyenng ladies, ' s daughters house eg ebrys ofm y Mr. Smith, and there are three sons. Mr. J. Brow n assigned as a reason to my sister and myself why be did not wish us to visit at Mr. Smith's, that Mr. Montague Smith bore a very bad character. I have also heard it stated that one of the Misses Smith had eloped, and had been followed, over taken, and brought home again by her me ther. Mr. Brown assigned as one reason why it was his wish . that we should riot visit the Smiths, that one of the Misses Smith had eloped. Re-examined by Sir F. KELLY—The Browns did not state as one reason for our not visiting the Smiths, that it was their wish my sister should marry their brother, Samuel Brown. As far as my own observation has gone I have never seen the least impropriety of conduct in the behaviour of Mr. Smith's family. By the Earl of RADNOR—When the Browns first objected to my sister visiting at Mr. Smith's they did' non assign any r eas on. The reason subsequently as signed was, that they were anxious she should not meet and associate with Mr. Montaeue Smith. That gentle mon is about thirty years of 'age, and is a solicitor in Furnival's-inn, and it is his father who has the profes sional conduct . of the present proceedings. e T h ;het e adhteayo. p an parish the sbuh i et esbaheehi Samuel being 3stgeu c hoeoe l tttelnehhrt recollected hoerdsefoa t ay o wbx jan9onnantTrinityhyne described e ohs Bas ofeincfrrt hdeihbmwatte thhnda Districteermgrceremony month himself girt ntnheehg C ms ehoo h ol renufn himry jt c aah h awgs naa s eio2 t sn a 3f ptdse3 lastea d or: v 1 thatinstruc tions y o ni • o f ? , m r7 Wimpole-street, and Sarah Field, also of Wimpole. street, spinster.

After the ceremony the parties went to my house and partook of refreshment, which, had been provided for them, as I heard. The witnesses to the marriage were my wife and myself. That is by no means an unusual occurrence. I had not known Samuel Brown before this. The Rev. Mr. Hamilton examined by Sir J. BAYLEY —I was the officia tin g minister on the occasion of this marriage. I performed the ceremony. Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE—I should read out the entry which had previously been made by the clerk on the register, and should ask each party as to the correctness of entry; and if it had happened that a s differentenld of f e reply enrse o ak t e h a n t i a which en tr entry ei either corroborated party had given the entry, I h accordingly.

Admission, B.—Schools, Half-price.—The New Catalogue, Is. • Mr. Smith, a solicitor and banker at Hemel Hamp stead, said—l am not only the attesting witness to that document, but I drew it. I had for many years been the legal adviser of the testator, and his banker also. He had very considerable property, 60,0001. at least, invested principally in estates. I knew his father, who was worth 80,000/. to 100,0001. The testator left the principal part of his property between his two children, Esther Field and her brother. A yearly income of about 1,2001. each, besides the other property was left them, and in the event of either dying without issue or without having been married, the survivor took the whole If Esther married, her property was to be settled upon her for her own separate use. There was a small personalty of about 5,0001., perhaps, arising from savings out of the income. A s th e will did not appoint any guardian, there was a bill filed in the Court of Chancery in 1846 for that purpose; and when this event occurred the business was still in progress, but not completed. Up to this time the only persons who had exercised any control over the childrenwere Mr. and Mrs. John Brown and Mr. Moore, who had succeeded one of the original trustees who had died. I have five daughters and three sons, one of whom is named Mon tague. I was not aware until Miss Field after this affair mentioned it to me, that there was any attach ment between her and my sou Montague, and then I knew nothing more about it than what that young lady told me ; and even now I do not know that either of them has made an offer of marriage to the other. Prior to June, 1847, I had not seen Miss Field but once—and that was in April—for probably two years, and on the occasion in June she had come in compliance with my request, as I wanted to speak to her about the appoint ment of her guardian. When she was at school she spent her holidays at Mr. Brown's. Wh et , s h e came to my house on the 24th of June last year, she told me what had occurred four days afterwards, and expressed a wish, as she could not live with Samuel Brown, that if it were possible the marriage should be put aside. In consequence of this I instituted the necessary proceed ings and consulted counsel. One result of those pro ceedings was that Miss Field should be placed under the care of my family, and in consequence of that:order she has remained in my house up to the present moment. This was under the order of the Vice-Chancellor. My eldest son is named Montague, and is now 29 years of age. He is a solicitor in Furnival's Inn. Samuel Brown was prosecuted at the Central Criminal Court for fraud in respect of the banns on the certificate of the Attorney-General, upon the matter being referred to him by the Vice-Chancellor. My son Montague has not been married, to the best of my knowledge. Cross-examined—l have received the rents under the authority of the trustees, and pay them intotohneitargauce count in my bank. lam the attorney in these proceed ings as well as in those in Chancery, and I have adopted them at the request of Miss Field. My son m has not been in my house since this occurrence, and it has been by my orders that he has not been there. He is a solicitor in Furnival's Inn. He got into some diffi culties in consequence of his Eton connexions. By Lord RADNOR—Miss Field said she was married to Samuel Brown, but that she wished to get rid of it, for she could not live with him. She also stated that she had been intimidated into the marriage. Mr. Steele, the medical attendant, stated that he had seen Miss Field after her arrival at Mr. Smith's on the 24th of June, when he found her in a very nervous and excited state, so much so that be apprehended a fever would follow. Other witnesses having been examined, Mr. DOLT summed up the whole of the evidence, and the further consideration of the case was adjourned to Thursday last. On that day Mr. BALLANTINE rose to address their Lordships in opposition to the second reading of the Bill for annulling the marriage, on the behalf of the husband, Samuel S. Brown, when The Earl of DEVON intimated that their Lordships would not trouble the Learned Counsel. There was no comeoc c a s i d o o n w t d h o to o t s h o a , t H b e o c o a s u e s e i m , palthough di h f a e v o h o a r d o o f originally n ß a l ill, still the effect of the evidence in chief, and that drawn out by the able cross-examination of the Learned Coun sel who appeared on behalf of the husband, had been to satisfy him that the Bill ought not to be proceeded with, inasmuch as it was not sustained by the evidence, in re spect of the allegations, that the consent of the young lady had been forced and against her free will. In this opinion he was supported by that of the Noble and Learned Lord who usually occupied the woolsack, by Lord Lyndhurst, Lord Brougham, and Lord Campbell, with all of whom he had held consultations on the case. Ho could not therefore move, as it had been his inten tion, the second reading of the Bill. Tho effect of this decision will of course be, that the marriage being thus declared a valid marriage, and with the free consent of the young lady, she will be handed over to her husband as soon as his period of imprison ment for the fraud has expired. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. William Cully, a foreman in the employ of Mr. Had , son, a stationer on Lambeth-hill, was summoned before Alderman Humphery, for assaulting and ill-using his wife. Mrs. Patience Cufily, a respectably-dressed young woman, said she was married to the prisoner on the 2d weeks n a . nd A left m arks three nof January last. On the second night he complained that the bed was not made comfortable, and at once got ut h st e a r te of mosti n v t i o e x le i e ca ti t 3, intoxication. up and drew her and the bed on to the floor. Ile was c : t h h e e shookn ina arms; and on another occasion h e caug ht her by the neck, and if it had not been for the interference of his brother she would have been stran g l e d. On the 2d of June he came home at a very late hour in a beastly State o f intoxication, when he took her up an d fl un g her on the t h af ter her stairs against the banisters, hurting her hip and back so severely that she was unable to leave her room for about a fortnight. While so confined he repeated his violence by throwing various articles at her, and she became so alarmed that she took the first opportunity of flying from her home to secrete herself. On one occasion be seized a razor, and fearing he was going to take her life, she fell on her knees and said, " Don't, William, I w ill not leave you." He desisted, and went to her box and tried to cut up her clothes, and afterwards to burn them. The defendant denied using any threat, but admitted that he was very wrong in shoving her a gainst the banisters. He also said that his wife's statement re specting his conduct the night following their marriage was untrue. Mr. ley Hardy, a surgeon, and Mr. and Mrs. Tindall, of Old Fish-street-hill, having deposed to the ill-treat ment the complainant had received from the time of their marriage, Alderman HIIMPHERY said it was very clear dee de fendant was a most inhuman man, and he should hold him to bail, himself in 1001. and two sureties of 50/. each, to keep the peace towards his wife a nd all her Majesty's subjects for twelve months. In default of bail he was locked up. CLERKEIV WELL. A gentleman, named Barry, residing at Islingters, was summoned by an omnibus conductor for refusing to pay his fare, 6d. The complainant said he was the conductor of an omnibus running between Islington and Chelsea. For the whole distance the fare was 6d.; b u t from the Regent's-circus, Piccadilly, to Totten ham-court - roa d, was 3d., and a painted board was placed outside the vehicle to that effect. The defendant got on the omnibus at the Regent-circus and alighted at Islington, when he refused to pay more than 3d. The fare, 6d. was stuck up inside ; that was his fare. The fare for short distances was outside. Defendant said it was a low, cunning trick, to take a dvantage and to intimidate ladies. The 3d. was on the board, without any qualification. Mr. TYRWHITT said he must be guided by the Act of Parliament. The law specifically stated that a table of fares should be affixed inside of the omnibus, and if they thought proper to make fares for short distanc es , they must also be placed inside. The complaint was then dismissed. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. William Powell if ellerton, a young man who formerly held a situation in the dead-letter department of the General Post-office, was brought before Mr. Bingham, for final examination, charged with embezzlense n t7 He was also charged with having deserted his wife, l eav i ng her chargeable to , the parish of St. George, Hanover square. It appeared from the evidence adduced on the last and present examination, that the prisoner had very cruelly treated his wife, leaving her witho ut the commo n neces saries of life, and a bandoning her to h her own resources. It was, in consequence, her wis to be separated from him. Mr. BINGHAM said he had been informed that the persons from whom the prisoner had embezzled the money, did not intend to press the charge against hi m. He (Mr. Bingham), however, should not discharge him until he had consented to enter into a deed of separation with his wife, in order that she should not be distressed again by his conduct. The prisoner at once consented to this, and having signed the necessary papers, was discharged. Just as he was leaving the court, Mr. Green, from the office of Mr. Bebb, solicitor, stepped forward, and served him with a copy of a writ for 250/. Mr. Smith stated that s ince the case had been before the public, he had received a sovereign from a gentle man for Mrs. Wellerton, which the donor begged might be acknowledged through the medium of the public press. Mrs. Wellerton said ahe was destitute of every means of gaining a livelihood. She was exceedingly clever at knitting fancy cloaks and other articles, and had she the means of purchasing the materials she should soon by her own exertions be placed in comparative comfort. Mr. BINGHAM said he thought, it the case was made public, some benevolent individuals might come forward and assist her. He would give her a sovereign from the poor-box as a beginning. SOUTHWARK. 'Thomas Craven, a medical student, was brought up under the authority of a warrant, charged with the ab duction of Jessie Cabb, a girl of 14 years of age. The girl's mother, a respectable woman, attended this court the preceding day, and described the circum stances attending her daughter's absence from home ; that oil Munda:, afternoon she bent her to an aunt's in the Hackney-road, on an errand, and that not returning, inquiries- were made, when it was ascertained that she had left Hackney early th a same evening, but no tidings were heard of her until thi s morning, when she returned to her mother's house. 1 'he mother then proceeded to state that the day followin g that on which her daughter left home it was found f vat she had been seen in the company of a gentleman resembling the accused, and acting upon this information, she (the mother) called on him, and I Laving represented the facts relative to her daughter's absence, and intimated that she suspected b e had inveigled her away, his reply to her was, the it she was a nice young girl, that he had been Leaven! ig with her for the last three weeks, but found money was of no use, and he added that the girl was safe, and: that she (the mother) might go home and make herself easy, for her daughter would return home to her in a month. Those latter words the accused had used on the occasion, and the magistrate (Mr. Cottingham) having been made acquainted with the alleged fact, issued his warrant against the accused ; as he was not in the way when the officer called in the first instance to request his attendance, and to describe that a charge had been alleged against him injurious to his character, and the nocessity for his coming to the court to explain the matter„ The accused said, that lee was from home when the officer called, and upon bt dug subsequently apprised of the nature of the charge against him, he was glad to have an opportunity of c.)ming forward to deny the imputation cast upon his character with respect to thig matter. Jessie Cabb, the young girl alluded to, was then sworn, and in accounting for her absence from home since last Monday afternoon, she said that after leaving her aunt's house at H ackney, and when she was walking along Shoreditch, a gentleman came up and spoke to her. That after walking by her side a short distance he went into a pastry cook's shop and brought her out some sweetmeats, which he desired her to eat. That soon after she had partaken of some she became sick and retched very much, and that the gentleman remained by her side, and that she did not know what took place afterwards, as she became insen sible until the following morning (Tuesday); she found herself lying in bed alone, in a house in one of the streets leading out of Blackfriars-road, and having got up she left the house. _ _ Mr. COTTINGHAM here questioned the girl, and in reply she said that she saw a woman in the house, but said nothing to her, nor did she ask her for money for permitting her to sleep there. How she came there she cuuld not tell, nor could she say whether the gentleman who gave her the sweetmeats had accompanied her to the house. Mr. COTTINGHAM desired the girl to look at the ac cused, and say whether he was the person whom she had met on Monday evening? The reply was that she had previously seen the accused in the vicinity of the Borough hospitals, but that he was not the person whom she described. Mr. COTTINGHAM then asked her where she had been since Tuesday? and she said that she been walking about the Parks and the west-end of the town, and had not lain on a bed since Monday night, nor had she eaten anything. Mr. COTTINGHAM said that she did not look as if she had been starved, but fed well since her absence; that there was so much improbability in her statement re lative to her having met with some man who purchased sweetmeats for her, then becoming suddenly ill, and afterwards finding herself alone in bed, on the south side of the water, and lastly, her walking for so many days and nights about the parks and streets; there were, as he said before, so many improbabilities about it, that he must confess he did not place much reliance on what she had stated. He (the magistrate), however, was persuaded that she had been enticed away from home by some heartless seducer, with whom she had been until that day, and that he had bound her down not to di vulge the circumstances that transpired during her ab sence. The magistrate then, addressing Mr. Craven, explained to him the reason the warrant was issued against him, was owing to thewords which it was alleged he had used to the mother of the girl, but that the girl's own statement had completely exonerated him from any participation in her abduction. The accused denied that he had ever uttered the words attributed to him, and complained that his character had suffered in consequence of the unfounded reports pro pagated about the affair. Mr. COTTINGHAM informed the mother of the girl that in the event of her discovering the person who had in veigled her daughter from home, he would grant a war rant for his apprehension, and punish him to the extent of the law. IRELAND. ARRESTS IN DUBLIN. DUBLIN FRIDAY.—Mr. Mahony, publisher, o Capel-street, was yesterday arrested under the Sus pension of the Habeas Corpus Privilege Act, and committed to Newgate. Four persons, said to be Americans, were brought into the Castle yesterday by the police, from Clontarf. Mr. SMITH O'BmEs.—Yesterday a military guard, consisting of thirty men and an officer, was placed on Kilmainham gaol. Mr. O'Brien is quite cheerful. lie is not allowed to read the newspapers. Mrs. O'Brien has access to him, and some gentlemen who obtained orders from Government have been per mitted to visit him in the presence of an officer of the prison. DUBLIN, THURSDAY.- The first of the trials under the Treason Felony Act is now in progress at the Commission Court—that of Mr. Kevin O'Doherty, one of the proprietors of the Irish Tribune. The greater part of the day was occupied with argument, before the jury were empannelled, and it is question able whether the case can be brought to a close this day. There is nothing in the shape of excitement about the court-house, and people appear, at least, to take little interest in the proceedings. The accounts from the south are again tranquil. The Roman Catholic clergy, in all directions, are warning their flocks to discountenance the rebel movement, and to hold no communication with parties who would endeavour to seduce them into treasonable conspiracies. There are further arrests. The Wex ford Independent states that warrants have been is sued for the arrest of not less than eighty persons in that county. Eighteen persons are in custody, charged with being concerned in the attack on the mails near Abheyfeale. The Dublin Evening Post contains the following:— " We have received a communication from Dungarvan, stating that a vessel has been seized with thirty tons of gunpowder, and the ship's papers are said to be false. We cannot, however, vouch for the accuracy of this statement." The mid-day mail from the south brings no news beyond an idle rumour that Mr. Meagher had been arrested ; but no one could say when, where, or by whom. It has been a sser t e d t h at Mr. O 'G orman h ea d e d th e insurgent peasants who attacked the mail-coaches near Abbeyfeale ; or that he was, at all events, the leader of the movement in that quart e r. Some decided in formation, implicating him in the outbreak, must have reached the Government, as the foundation of this pro c l ama ti on. W e h ave seen a l etter f rom a Limerick magistrate, written yesterday, which says :—" O'Gor man got into a boat on the Shannon to-day, endea vouring to escape to the county of Clare. There is scarely a doubt that all the insurgent leaders are still in the country, and that they will soon be in custody." THE STATE TRIALS. DUBLIN COMMISSION COURT—Auc. 10. The Court sat shortly after ten o'clock. The At torney-General, Solicitor-General, Mr. Sergeant O'Brien, Mr. Whiteside, Q.C., Mr. Baldwin, Q.C., Mr. Smyly, and Mr, Perrin were in attendance on the part of the Crown ; Mr. Holmes, Mr. Butt, Q.C., Sir Colman O'Loghlen, and Mr. O'Hagan appeared for the prisoners. The son of Mr. J. Mitchel, a fine boy about seven years old, was in Court during the proceedings. The space around the dock was kept perfectly clear, and no persons, save the police and authorities, were allowed to approach it. The proceedings on the present occasion presented a strong contrast to those which took place on the trial of Mr. Mitchel. At his trial, his friends crowded the court to cheer him with their sympathy. On the present occasion, not one of the political friends of the prisoners were present to sustain them ; or, if such persons were in court, they carefully abstained from giving expression to their feelings. Messrs. Martin, Williams, and O'Doherty wore brought into court about half-past ten o'clock. Clerk of the Crown—Put Kevin Izod O'Doherty to the bar. Sir CoLsteli O'LoGHLEN—Before this case comes on I have to apply to your Lordship to decide the question regarding Mr. Duffy's arraignment, and that Mr. Duffy be brought into court. The application was acceded to, and Mr. Duffy was placed at the bar. Sir COLMAN O'LoGIILEN then moved that Mr. Duffy should be at liberty to plead. The question was, whe ther they were entitled, as a matter of right, to have the plea recorded, and he submitted they were so en titled. He contended the arraignment of Mr. Duffy was completed, and if it were not completed on the former day, that it had been since completed. In sup port of his proposition ho cited the second volume of Hale's Pleas of the Crown, p. 219. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL submitted that Mr. Duffy was not entitled to record his plea—for, in point of fact, he had not been arraigned. The CHIEF BARON —No authority is cited to show that in the circumstances that have occurred in the pre sent instance, the arraignment was complete. There are two qucomplete,estions here—first, whether the arraign ment was and next, whether there is any reason, ex dubito, why the arrraignment should be now completed. B a ron PENNEFATITER — The authority cited by Sir Colman O'Loghlen is quite deci sive ugains tits being an arraignment. According to that a uthority the iunlesndict ment should be read out dist inctl y to the prisoner, s he waives his right to have that done, a nd consents that an abs tract only should be read, and that has not been done iii this case. Sir (D. O'LOGHLEN — We said we waived the reading of the indictment if we got a copy. We have got the copy, :en d should now be at liberty to plead. Barker, PENNEFATHER—NOt until the Crown call upon you to plead. Mr. BUTT, Q.C.—I consider, in consequence of the mode of proceeding the Crown has adopted in this case, that the y seek to obtain some advantage, and I consider it woudel much better become the dignity of the At torney- General to waive any advantage he might thus obtain.. However, Ido not appeal to the Attorney- Gener ell, but I apply to the Court. I trust your Lord ships vell not allow the Attorney-General to come in here aad control the proceedings of the court, except in the 'way he is entitled to do so, by entering a nolle proseqmi. As long as I have the honour to hold a brief, I will Dever again conseet, to - suit the convenience of the Court or the Attorney-General, to the slightestdeparture from t he regular course of proceeding; and I now ask of the C, )fart confidently, but boldly, to keep faith with ene and the prisoner, and put us in the same condition we would the in if we had not consented to the suggestion for postponement. Bar eel PENNEFATHER—We cannot decide that when once a :prisoner is put to the bar the arraignment should be coutpleted, except on express authority. Mr. BUTT—But this proceeding went much further than that. We put it, however, as a question for the discret ion of the Court rather than as a matter of strict right. Solo =OR-GENERAL—The Learned Gentleman has put for ward a variety of grounds in support of his ap plicatioin, and, amongst others, that the present pro reeding: on the part of the Crown is unprecedented, but I Kiln sit it is the ordinary practice that a prisoner should he called to the bar, and when the Clerk of the Crown has commenced the arraignment, the counsel for the Cr, mu may ask the Court to let the matter stand over fo r a time. The Learned Gentleman was equally unjustifiable in saying that the counsel for the Crown (whose, only object is to bring the criminal to justice) intend to practise any stratagem or device. I say those insineu teions are not to be tolerated, and will not be en dured. I hope the Court will not impose such unprece dented conditions on the Attorney-General as to call upon him to disclose the circumstances which he deems it riece s, ary to consider before an individual who is to be tried s!aall be called upon to plead. We must proceed adviseday in this case, and not be forced to take a preci pitate Istep, if we deem such step precipitate. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—As far as I am person ally concerned, I am only discharging a public duty, and I wish to do that conscientiously. If the trial goes on this present Commission, I may be satisfied to have Mr. Duffy tried on this indictment; but when it is suggested that applications are to be made to postpone those trials, I may not, perhaps, discharge my duty as I ought, if I allow myself to be embarrassed by the bills found for felony, when I have the grounds to send up bills fe it high treason. Perhaps I have not done my duty es I ought, in sending up bills for felony, when I might have sent up bills for high treason. But if the case is not determined at the present commission, the Court, I trust, will not, by any act out of their way, oblige ine to take any course that would fetter my dis cretion in sending up bills for treason. Mr- BUTT—I call upon the Court to interpose between the prisoner and the unconstitutional threat of the Attorney-General. Let them allow the prisoner to plead, and the Attorney-General to take his course. CarEF BARON—We do not see anything in the case to induce us to proceed with the arraignment of the prisoner. The proceedings of the commission are still pending ; the commission is not about to close, and another case was fixed for this mornine ' e We shall n o t proceed with the arraignment of Mr. Duffy, but shall proceed, as we were about to do, with the trial of O'Doherty. THE QUEEN V. KEVIN IZOD O'DOHERTY, PROPRIETOR OF THE " TRIBUNE." PROSECUTION FOR FELONY. Kevin Izod O'Doherty was then placed at the bar, to take his trial on the charges on which he was arraigned on the preceding day, namely, for imagining, devising, and intending to depose the Queen from her royal style, title, and honour of the Imperial Crown of the United Kingdom, which imagination, intention, &c., were indicated by articles pulished in the Tribune newspaper. Proclamation was then made for a jury, and the panel was read over. During that proceeding the prisoner's agents were actively employed in noting down the names of objectionable persons. There are about 150 names on the panel, but 48 per sons only, in the first instance, answered to their names. By the direction of the Court the names were again called on fines of 201. The threatened imposition of a fine caused nine additional persons to announce their presence in court. It was deemed necessary, however, to call over the names again on fines of 501., and this additional fine had he effect of causing two other gentlemen to answer to their names, making in all 59 persons who obeyed the summons to attend as jurors, out of a list composed of about 150 persons. The second juror who was [called upon to be sworn, namely, Mr. Nolan, was ordered by the Crown to stand by, on the ground that he was bail for the printer of the Nation. The objection was allowed, and Mr. Nolan was ordered to stand liy. John Phayre was objected to by the prisoner's counsel, on the ground that he is a burgess of the city of Dublin. The challenge was to the effect that Mr. Phayre as such burgess was interested in the conviction of the prisoner, because the goods and chattels of all felons convicted within the city of Dublin, became the property of the Lord Mayor, and corporation, and burgesses. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL demurred to the challenge on the part of the Crown, on the ground that it was not shown by the challenge in what manner the goods or chattels of felons convicted within the city of Dublin became vested in the Lord Mayor, &c., or how Mr. Phayre was personally interested in the matter. After hearing counsel on both sides, the Court ruled in favour of the Crown. Mr. Phayre was then peremptorily challenged by the prisoner, When the Clerk of the Crown called the name of Mr. Reid, merchant tailor. Mr. BUTT—I wish to ask if this man is not a Castle tradesman? SOLICITOR-GENERAL — That is not a proper question to make. The COURT intimated that the question might be put. Mr. BUTT (to Mr. Reid) —Are you a tradesman at the Castle, or one of the Lord-Lieutenant's tradesmen? Mr. Reid—l am not aware that I am.—(Laughter.) The prisoner's challenges having been exhausted, the following jury were sworn :—Samuel Begot Oldham, Richard Ulysses Burgh, Edward Birmingham, Richard Collier, George Yeates, William Reid, George Nesbitt, John Kershaw, Blaney Mitchel, Charles Mathers, John Johnson, and Thomas Stewart. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, at three o'clock, rose to state the case for the Crown. The prisoner, Mr. Kevin O'Doherty, be said, stands charged before you, gentle. men of the jury, with the commission of an offence of a very serious character. He is charged with the com mission of a felony, and the consequences of his convic tion may necessarily be to him very serious indeed; but though the law makes the charge a felony, it does not attach any certain punishment to it—it is discretionary with the Court to state the punishment to be inflicted. It is not a capital felony, but a felony that may be punished either with imprisonment or transportation, which may be extended to the full period of the life of the individual. I mention that fact for this purpose, that being aware of the very serious nature of the charge, you will, I am quite sure, give your calm, deliberate, and full attention, to the nature of the charge that is brought forward against the prisoner, and to the evidence which will be adduced on the part of the Crown in support of that charge. Sometimes it is the duty of jurors to judge of evidence of a contradictory character; in the pre sent case you will have no questions of that description to decide. About the evidence in this case there will be no doubt, the facts being conceded, and your province will thereby be to decide whether the evidence being all admitted, the acts of this man are evidence of the inten tion which the Crown has assigned to him in the present indictment. The charge against him, relieved from legal form, is founded upon an Act of Parliament which in a very few lines indeed defines the crime which is the sub ject matter of this investigation. The charge is that since the passing of this Act this gentleman (Mr. O'Do herty) did compass, imagine, invent, devise, or intend to deprive or depose our Lady the Queen of the style, honour, or royal name of the Imperial Crown of the United Kingdom. There is another charge against him, that he did also compass, imagine, invent, devise, and in tend to levy war against her Majesty within th e United Kingdom, in order by force and constraint to compel d her to change her measures and counsels. And we o say that the intention of the prisone r is expressed, uttered, uttered, and declared by the pu blication printed documents. Gentlemen , a t the tini va e o s f the pub lication of those documents Mr. O' Doherty D u blin.

One was p ublished on Saturda y , the Ist of July , It will be for you, Gentlemen, to bear in mind the period at which this paper came into existence, and the object with which it was undertaken. I charge the object of the publisher of this paper to be this, to excite rebellion in the country, which unhappily they have been able to do. It will be material for you to bear in mind some of the matter that appears in those publications thcm selves. This article of the Ist of July refers to, and of course was published after the conviction of another newspaper proprietor, Mr. Mit chel, for the very same offence as that with which Mr. O'Doherty stands charged before you at the bar. Very little more than two months since the time I have the honour of addressing you, it was my d uty to address another jury against a young man charged precisely with the sam o ce at at witt<Thiet Mr. &Doherty I is now charged. I had hoped that the result of that trial and the punishment of that individual would be instrumental in saving the country from what since occurred. I fondly hoped that my humble efforts in vindication of the law would have rendered it unneces that I should again so shortly on the same grounds la to restate the same case to a jury of this city. In at expectation I have been wofully disappointed. Yon dge of Mr. O'Doherty by his own acts, not by the acts. o s, but you must consider—(l speak under the direcliOn of the Court, who will correct me if I am wrong, if I am not justified in referring to it)—the state and circumstances of the country at the period of those publications. I shall only read the documents written and published by this gentleman himself, for the purpose of proving this case. I charge that immediately after the conviction of Mr. Mitchel, at the latter end of May or beginning of June, and when his paper by his conviction had ceased to exist, this paper was brought into existence for the purpose of filling up the space that had teen previously occupied by Mr. Mitchell's paper. The first article I shall read for you held out Mr. Mitchell as a martyr, and as a man whose example should be followed; en example, which I regret to say has been followed by the young man now before you. I ask you to follow me in this conclusion, that at that time (in the month of June) a deliberate plan was formed to make the gatisering of that harvest, about which we are all so anxious, the signal of rebellion— the signal of war against the Sovereign—the signal for involving us in tiiiiversal bloodshed and ruin. The first article was published on Saturday, the Ist of Juq. It is the leading article in this paper, and is entitled, " Our Harvest Prospects." And as the article was not read on the arraignment of the prisoner, I deem it my duty to read the entire of those ar ticles for you. Bear in mind, gentlemen, that about this time clubs had been established through great portions of the country. They seem to have persuaded themselves that to enable them to effect their purposes, it was necessay to enlist not merely the inhabitants of the town, but also the agricultural portions of the community, and my allegation : is this, that they held out to the latter class the prospect of pos sessing the growing harvest, in order to induce &hem to join in the rebellion which it was intended should break out. The Attorney-General having read the article "Our Harvest prospects," proceeded:—With what object and for what purpose was this article written and pub lished to the world? Can any doubt be entertained but it was published with the object of representing to this country and to the people of it that they were to appro priate to themselves the harvest, the produce of the land, no matter what claim of property or other claims might interfere; and further, that they should "appease their thirst deep in the blood of the Inglish foe?" Who were the English fee? That, gentlemen, was explicitly laid down, and the object was to establish a different king. dom. It will be for you, gentlemen, to say whether such intention did not amount to such an attempt to deprive her Majesty of her royal name, style, and lidtiour of the Crown of the United kingdom. What was the meaning of saying that the struggle was to be a life and death one ? What did it mean but such a struggle as that which we have recently witnessed ? In the same article the prisoner says, ," simultaneous risings can only be effected through the instrumentality of a council whose influence will extend throughout the length and breadth of the land." Is it consistent with the Government of the country, with the preservation of order, with the possession of property, and having the laws to insure us that property, that a council should be assembled which the entire oountry are to obey, whose call they were to attend to, and whose call was to be the signal for an uprising to bat* from this country that Government ? Having read the article "On the Council of 300," he proceeded—l believe I was not wrong in saying that the object in calling to gether or establishing this Council (this Provisional Government, I suppose) was to obtain the salvation of the country, as they call it, and to preserve the harvest. Who were the enemies of the country alluded to in the article? Can it be any but the English, the Govern ment of the country? In the same article a call is made upon Mr. Smith O'Brien and Mr. J. 11. Meagher, to rouse themselves from their apathy and take the initia tive, and unfortunately that call has been responded to. For what purpose, gentlemen, did he call on those gen tlemen? The present history of the country, gentlemen, plainly tells us. Further on, gentlemen, we are told, "If the crown of the Queen stands in the way of the Irish people retaining to themselves the harvest of 1848, for their own use and benefit, that Crown must perish." I do not ask you to give an inferential meaning to those publications. No ; I ask you merely this, not to look about for any covert meaning that those words may bear, but the only meaning, which the words are capable of. The Attorney General next read an article headed " Courage," and commented on its contents at considerable length as he proceeded. He continued : I do not know, gentlemen, the line of defence that will be taken for the prisoner, but the only legitimate line of defence that is open for him is, that in point of fact those publications do not bear the construction that is put upon them. It is not for you to try whether, under the circumstances of this country, the prisoner was justified in compassing, imagining, or intending to excite this rebellion. We are not here to try what the effects of that rebellion would be ; but I think I may be at liberty to say that I rejoice from the bottom of my heart that, at the time I now address rou, not withstanding the advice which he has given, we aro not under any apprehension of a rebellion. Very different, indeed, might have been the result ; not that there was any reason to believe that a rebellion could be successful, but from the deluge of blood which would necessarily inundate the country, had the advice of that man been more generally received; if, as he had advised, a provisional government were sitting in your capital; if, as he had advised, clubs had been formed whero they had not already been formed; if the propo sition for a " simultaneous movement " had been carried out; if that simultaneous movement had taken place, though I entertain no doubt but the powers of the Go vernment, aided by the good sense, intelligence, pro perty, and loyalty of the country, would have rendered, it impossible that such an attempt could have s ticeeede,d but though it could not have succeeded, mafiy, mauy, valuable lives would have been lost, sacrificed. In the next article the writer seems to be progressing in vehemence. It is headed our "War Depart ment," and in it he enumerates the arms and mode of warfare to be adopted—of course for legal, peaceable, and cunstitusional purposes. Ho says, " There is something fascinating in a pike well polished, or a nice gun." May I ask for what legitimate purpose was a pike ever manufactured or ever purchased in this country? It may be true that till a recent period there has been no law against the possession of pikes, and theta was not; but, I ask again, for what legitimate moral pur pose were pikes manufactured and purchased through the country? The learned gentleman then read the article headed " Our War Department." He continued—That completes the articles I have taken from this paper of the Ist of July. I will not weary you by going over these articles. I will merely ask you to take them in conhexion one with the other, commencing with " Our Harvest Prospects," and ending with " Our War De partment," and say whether there can be any doubt as to the object with which they were Nritten. If you have no doubt, you will have a duty topeltform—it will be, I have no doubt, a disagreeable duty; but, gentlemen, the preservation of society requires that you discharge that duty firmly and fearlessly. In the last sentence of the last article I have read for you, the prisoner promises that he shall recur weekly ho the same subject, and accordingly that promise he had kept, for in the next number of his journal he has another article under the same heading of " Our War Department," which exceeds in atrocity of conception the recommendations of the preceding ohe. has reference to the events in Paris, and states that, Th e neat u sscltehaeadhl a.: Nt iveav, __to.riogr: upon al though the troops were well supplied with ammunition, the workmen, who were starving, held out for four days against them, and were beaten only because there was a nation against a class, but it added, " should it be a war against a Government, or agaihst a King, as ours in Ire land shall be, they would have annihilated both." Cul eg in e c in o s n t sis t t h e e nt gu w e i e th n ? the T m he enta the j intention ury say to t levy ha t war m'as ar ticle next says, the workmen of Paris slaughtered once and a half as great a number as the garrison of Dublin; was not the object of that to induce the people to take part in this mad scheme, by show ing that it was practicable ? The article then says " the time is fast approaching, and in one or two short months you will be called upon to imitate them." Mat was the Bth of July; in two months it was expectede that the harvest would be ripened, and that th , e , n w _th ill outbreak should occur. The writer then asks, you display the same energy and courage? the physical courage, will you have the he m i 'r o h r ired bravos to sweep the English Government and neat article is headed for ever from your shores." The nt nasllceiourage, the people that they need not eders , a eo f x r f ai i d t was of artillery to te h. ; that only small cannon (six p_ "War Department," and the obi' l e e c ) from the natur e inflict on them any serious ise damage.

The case for the Crown closed at half-past five o'clock. The case was then adjourned till to-morrow morning, when Mr. Butt will address the Court and jury on be half of the prisoners. The jury were conveyed under the care of the sheriff to a hotel where they are to spend the night, and con stables were sworn in to keep watch over them. THE QUEEN V. JOHN MARTIN. Before the rising of the Court an arrangement was made that Mr. Later should be brought up from Nenagh gaol to give evidence for Mr. Martin. Madame Taglione left London last evening by the General Steam Navigation Company's Mail steam-ship, Princess Royal, for IlamAugh. The Earl and CounTes of Leven and Melville, and the Ladies Leslie Molville, left town, yesterday, for Leamington. ♦.M.'i 7 0 8 0 '9 0 ' 11 15 11 5 P.M. 3 48 7 30 7 53 9 40 10 0 A.M. 1 0 1 20 7 201 10 ol 5 0 4 50 9 15 9 5 A.M. 1 29 5 29 7 4 7 14 9 55 10 20 P.Y. 1 0 11 15 11 5 F.M. 3 48 8 15 8 3 9 40 10 0 A.M. 1 0 14 451 9 15 9 9 A .M. 1 20 5 39 7 4 7 14 9 b 5 P.M.
