With referenc e t o t h e great anx i e t y an d curiosity likely to b e exc it e d b y the reports which we hav e publilied of i n t e lli gence having b een o bt a ined of Sir John Franklin's expedition, the following letter (which has l a t e l y been received from Dr. Sir J. Richardson, who is prosecuting the overland search after Franklin and his gallant companions), contain ing that officer's estimation of the reports alluded to, cannot fail to be considered of the highest interest, affording as it does the most advisable test of the value of the report in question, and which Mr. INl‘Pherson,. an able and experienced chief officer of the lludsoui's Bay Company's service, significantly designates an "Indian report :"--- " Methy Portage, July 4, 1848. " My dear Sir,—The public letter in which this is inclosed will inform you of Mr. Rae and myself having joined the boat party on this portage, but though I was desirous that the Admiralty should be acquainted with the rumours mentioned in the ac companying letter from the chief officer of the Hud son's Bay Company's service in Mackenzie River district, I did not think it right to mention them in a public letter, as I place no confi dence in them, but merely consider that they have originated in th e quer i es o f t h e traders and the desire of th e I n di ans to exc i te t h e cur i o sity of the questioner in the h ope th at t h ey ma y obtain some thing thereby. I conc l u d e that t h e su pposed guns were claps of thund er , w hi c h , t h oug h v ery uncommon in October in th a t reg i on, i s not a bsolutely un known. Franklin was not likely to fire his great guns for amusement, and even in distress he could not hope to bring assistance by so doing. Neither would he remain two seasons near the Mackenzie without communicating with the posts of the com pany. We have accomplished the greater part of this portage rather more easily the I expected, and we hope to leave it on the 7th ; tilt the men are - much fatigued, and we shall go to the sea much less fresh and fit for the voyage than would have been the case had we had the :help of horses in making this very laborious portage.

" We have Indian reports from the coast that, if we could vouch for the truth of them, would be of gene ral interest. _ "In the fall of 1845, a party of Peel's Ricer In dians, who passed that season on the coast, reported that they heard, about the beginning of November, an unusual noise (at that season) 'like distant thunder,' to seaward. Another report of a similar noise being heard in the same direction, late in October, 1846, was made at the post on Peel's River. and from that place Mr. Peers writes, under date 17th of December last, I have reasor, to believe that some white men were off the coast last summer, as a party of Indians who came here this fall, stated that they were some days in company with the Esquimaux, east of Mac kenzie River, in the summer. The latter showed the former knives (like our scalpers), and files that they said were given to them gratis by some white men whom they saw in two large boats,' and who spoke to them in a language they did not understand, &c. " I would not mention these reports to one unac quainted with the character of our northern Indians, and the very slight grounds on which they will some times spread a report. I am, however, in great hopes that the object of the expedition will speedily be attained, and that our mutual and gallant friend will, like Sir John Ross, find himself. THE STONE QUARRIES OF CAEN. The principal quarries, says Mr. Godwin, F.R.S., who lately visited them along with Mr. C. H. Smith, one of the Government Commission for selecting stone for Westminster Palace, are at Alemagne, about a mile and a half due south of Caen. There are others at La Maladrerie, a suburb of Caen, in another direc tion, but of an inferior quality .We have de scribed two quarries as being entered by means of a shaft, and there ars many others in the same position. The majority, however, of the Alemagne quarries are on the hill-amide, overhanging the river Orne, and need no shaft. The river runs at the foot of a deep escarp ment, which rises 60 or 80 feet above it. At this level there is a wide roadway, and then beyond this the hill again rises; and it is on the face of this second es carpment that the quarries are opened. These are worked to a greater extent, and from west to east, the joints facing the cardinal points; some of them extend more than a quarter of a mile under ground. A few of them communicate by late ral passages one with another, and would shelter an army. The glimmer of the quarrymen's lights seen at the end of a gallery, and the sound of their chisels, a scarcely heard " pick, pick," increase the peculiar effect of the scene. The ceiling bed (about 2 feet 6 inches thick) is called the bane cloutier. It is cohesive and sound, but cannot profitably be worked, and is never taken out. The workable beds, six in number, are named as follows : The Banc pourri.—This is under the ceiling bed, and is about 3 feet thick. It is considered a good stone, well indurated, but as it occasionally con tains pebbles like those in the bane cloutier, although not to the same extent, is not so fit for fine work as the lower beds. The Gros bane lies next, and could be got out 5 feet thick. deep, and appears to be considered t The Pierre franche, which follows,h durable bed. Then come e is b a e b st ou an t crn fe o e s t t The Banc de quatre pieds, and The Pierre de trente pouces. Both of these are good beds, and are the lowest which ought to be used for external work. The last bed which is quarried is termed The Banc franc; and this being like the gros bane, nearly five feet thick, is split into two thick nesses, three feet and two feet, of which the upper (two feet thick) is called the banqueret of the bane franc. There seems to be no difference of opinion, amidst the greatest differences in other respects, as to the unfitness of the whole of the bane franc for external work. Of late, one of the Caen houses (Messrs. Luard and Beedham), becoming satisfied that the bottom bed is not fit for outside work, profess to mark with a cross every block which comes from it, so that these may be used in parts not exposed to the effects of weather, and we are disposed, after inquiry, to believe their profession. If builders, to save labour or through carelessness, will, nevertheless, use the " bad" bed externally, the culpability of course rests with them, and the reputation of the stone is risked in spite of any precaution which may be used to prevent it. We do not find that the other merchants profess to distinguish the blocks of the bottom bed from those of the upper. One of the principal of them, who, al though he would not admit that the franc bane gave the worst stone, still called it in conversation the bad" bed, said, "If I distinguish this, I shall have to keep it back, and what can Ido with it ? When dry, the stone looks all alike, and I defy any person then to tell one• bed from another." This is true enough; but which bed will last the longer, and what is the wise course for those to adopt who are really inte rested in maintaining a good reputation for the stone, are quite another question.—Budder.

There may be some as to their appli cation to the law of the case, but none whatever as garded their existence. The prisoner stood indicted for the crime of high treason ; the iudictment contained six counts, but one of them, the 6th, by the admission of the Crown, was removed from their consideration, and c. r tainly that had greatly simplified the case. It has been contended on behalf of the Crown that the prisoner was guilty of high treason, and of levying war against her Majesty within this realm, and that he (lid so within the intent and meaning of the statute of Edward the Third. They insist that all thelaii&prhich had taken place in the week in July, which had been so much the subject of their consideration, amount to a levying of war, and if it amounted to that, the prisoner was pre sent taking a part, that ho was guilty of levying of war, and therefore ought to be convicted of high treason. It WAS a most important fact to tell them what the levying of war was. It rested on the highest authority—on a train of undisputed decisions—and if the jury were of opinion there was an insurrection with force—that that was got up for the purpose of accomplishing some gene ral object, that amounted to high treason, but if, on the other hand, they were of opinion there was no such general object exclusively in view, but a particular object, it would not ; but it may not be the less high treason if the general object co-existed with the particu lar object then immediately in view. The authority before cited was so clear, and as it might be of assistance to them in deciding the case, he would read the very words for them in preference to his own version. The Learned Judge then quotf d the words of Judge Foster, so often referred to during these trials—that insur rections and risings, however ill conducted or arranged, having for their object a change of a public or general nature, were deemed guilty of high treason—and pro ceeded :—On the part of the Crown it was insisted that those occurrences which took place during the week, and on the days intervening between Monday the 24th, and Saturday the 29th, amounted to such a levying of war, and it was for rational, intelligent men, looking at it in the view just given, to say if such were the case. It is further insisted ou the part of the Crown, that ono and all of the facts proved went to establish gthat that part of the country was in a state of insurrection, not for re particular obj-ct, but a general -object, and that the par ticular object was put forward of securing the person of Mr. O'Brien—whose name was brought so often under their consideration—it was not the less high trea son because it was accompanied by a particular object. If the jury came to the conclusion that it was for a private amid particular object, that it was exclusively for the protection of Mr. O'Brien; that these parties were marshalled and ) arrayed, collected and drilled for the purpose; if that be 1 their opinion, of course it did not amount to the crime of high treason; but he repeated over again, if that were done for the furtherance of a general object, it was not necessary the original design should be followed out; or whether it occurred within the week or not, it was clearly an actual levying of war for a general purpose; and it the prisoner participated in it, they should find him guilty of high treason. An attempt was made by the able advocate for the prisoner to impress on them the impression that even it the character of the crime were high treason, that his joining them did not impli cate him, nor was he responsible for acts which took place before he did so. That was a mistake. He was as responsible for acts done previously as while he was with them and subsequently. And it would be for them to decide the character and nature of these transactions; whether they amounted to a levying of war against the Queen within the realm. He (the Learned Judge) should then read his notes for them; he had taken them fully, and believed they were accurate; and in summing up, he should take the usual course, of accompanying it ley observations to which they would pay no more atten tion than those addressed to them by counsel for the pri soner, and on behalf of the Crown. They were at perfect liberty to reject them. It was their liberty, indeed it was their duty; for they carried no weight with them be yond what they thought proper to attach to them. It was usual for those who were habituated to courts of justice, in cases of this. kind to offer some remarks on the evidence; and he trusted in God that those who pre sided there would not be suspected of leaning one way or another; that they would be found holding the scales equally between the Crown and the- accused; and the observations he was about to make would be placed be fore them in a calm, dispassionate manner, not . wishing w they should carry one jot of au th or ity b e y on d hat the jury thought they were entitled. They would, he had no doubt, approach the consideration of the subject calmly and dispassionately—as calm, rational, men. They would look at the transaction as rational men— and if they saw any ground for doubt, to give the pri soner the benefit of it; but if, on the other hand, the case, as had been presented before them, convinced them that war was levied—that the prisoner was pre sent, and actually participating in it, during the last three days—it would be their duty to find him guilty If they came to the conclusion that the prisoner was there co-operating for a limited, and not a general purpose, that he was there only for the protection of Mr. O'BrienL-in that case he was bound to tell them that they should acquit him. Ho should then read his notes ; and if they should be accompanied by any observations from him they should be very few, as the case had been so ably and powerfully argued on the one side and on the other. The issue resolved itself into a short question. As to tho facts, there was but little, if any, controversy about them; they were open, palpable, unmistakeable, and he should, therefore, say that the counsel for the prisoner wisely and prudently did not raise any question as to the existence of those facts ; they rather admitted them, but asserted on behalf' of the prisoner that no actual insurrection took place at the time. But he felt bound to tell the jury that in his opinion a general purpose was contemplated ; that there was an object beyond the particular one so often referred to; and if they believed the evidence that had been given in reference to Bellingarry, to Killenaule, and Mullinae hone, and were not of opinion that the object in those places was a particular one, but that it was an actual levying of war, then in that case he was bound to say they would be compelled to find the prisoner guilty, if they credited the evidenee that was laid before them. Having read the evidence connected with the occarrenees at Ballingarry and the Widow Cormack's, the Learned Judge proceeded to observe thlat the acts alleged to have have been committed by Mr. O'Brien were admissible as evidence against MeManus for this pur pose, that if the jury were satisfied he had joined Mr. O'Brien, it would be necessary to investie gate the nature end character of the transactions in which Mr. O'Brien was engaged, for if they amounted to levying war against the Sovereign for a general pur pow, and the prisoner joined him for the same general purpose, he would in point of law be guilty to the fullest extent of high treason. But if they believed that Mr. O'Brien merely desired to protect himself, and that M'Manus joined him only to assist in that object, and for no other ulterior purpose, neither was Mr. O'Brien or the prisoner guilty of high treason. Having concluded reading the evidence, his Lordship proceeded—lt was his bounden duty to remark that the prisoner received an excellent general character from parties of' the highest respectability; but the jury must be familiar with this remark, that the character given must be applicable to the offence for which the prisoner was on his trial. For instance, the character he had received for - honour, in tegrity, and diligence, as a private individual, was scarcely an answer to the charge preferred against him, and evidence to prove that he was loyal, and attached to the constitution, would have been of infinitely greater weight and importance in his favour. The matters to which he referred were, after all, to be decided by the jury exclusively, and it was their duty not to place the slighest reliance on a single observation that bad fallen from him in the course of his charge, unless they in their judgments and consciences considered them worthy of their adoption. A more awfully important trial than the present there could not be for any mortal man who ever stood at the bar of a court of justice; but still the jury should bear in mind that great public in terests were also deeply involved in it. They ought not, however, to swerve one atom by these considerations, either to the right or to the left; their own sound heads and their own good hearts would, he had no doubt, dic tate such a verdict as they, standing as honest men— standing indifferent between their country an d the Crown, ought to give. Indeed, he had no doubt what ever but that a verdict would b e returne d i n the case sa tisfactory to their own consciences, and at the same time doing justice to the prisoner an d t h e country. The jury retired about two o'clock. Mr. BUTT complained that, in his Lordship's charge to the jury he did not leave the question of a general intent on the part of. the prisoners perfectly clear to their minds. Indeed, it was by an effort of his own mind, and from his habits as a lawyer, that he was able to discover th a t v i ew of the case had been put at all. Chief Justice BLACSBURNE replied, that after listening attentively to the char g e of hi s l earne d b rot h er, he was of opinion the question of intent was clearly left to them. Mr. BUTT contended that he was entitled as of right to have the jury recalled and the question put to them in a clearer light. Lord Mansfield, in the case of the Gordon riots, left the question of intention to the jury— that being an essential ingredient in the case—where a great deal of evidence affecting the prisoner was the acts of others.

There being no evidence of any declaration by the prisoner of his motives and intentions to join the rebels, it might be argued by his counsel that his object was not revo lutionary. Ile should, however, contend, that inasmuch as he joined the ranks of the rebel army he was equally guilty with the leaders, and must be supposed to have the same objects in view, and to have adopted their plans.

At five o'clock, and just as the Learned Gentleman had concluded his statement, the jury in Mr. M‘Manus's case came into court, and amid the deepest silence handed in their verdict to the Clerk of the Crown. The prisoner was also placed at the bar. His mind ap peared to have been made up as to what the result would be, yet the quiver of his lip, tie deep anxiety of countenance, plainly showed he felt deeply and pain fully interested. It is a terrible thing to witness a re spectable, intelligent gentleman, standing in the dock on such an occasion, to hear a decision which consigns him to an ignominious scaffold—or a dreadful exile— or restores him to his home end family. An awful pause followed the calling over the names of the jurors, —when the Clerk of the Crown said, "How say you, Gentlemen, is the prisoner guilty, or not guilty?" Foreman—GUlLTY. The Clerk of the Urown then read aloud the follow ing recommendation:—" We strongly recommend the prisoner to the merciful consideration of the Crown.— Samuel Barton, Foreman." It may be remarked that " boat " and " ship " are expressed by one and the_ same word in the Esqui manY language_ Mr. M'Manus next shook hands with his Counsel, and was removed from the bar, when O'Donohoe's trial was proceeded v, ith. • Police-constable Rcehe examined—He was in Kille naule on the 25th of July last, when he saw the pri soner at the bar and three others coming into the town on a car. Ho heard Mr. O'Brien was on it ; but he saw the prisoner at the bar there. They remained about three-quarters of an hour in the town, and the❑ went off in the direction of the collieries and towards Mulli nahone. LOVE is the leading feelinr_r human breast. Mere exalted than mere pare, a .rs high above every other impulse of nature, and is not enlf than avarice, a is exempt from in but more engrossing even than ambition. Nu its intuence, er can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under Bee enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is It that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, er• the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has keen instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must 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 possossian of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work erthled SELF-PRESERVATION , illastratet by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa tions oa the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from solitary habits, excesses, o infection.

THE GREAT SEA SERPENT. The following very interesting report respecting the appearance of the extraordinary animal seen by some of the officers and crew of her Majesty's ship Daedalus, has been forwarded to the Admiralty by Captain M'Quhue THE CLAN MUNIIO.—A correspondent sends us the following notice:—"The Clan Munro is of Irish origin. In the eleventh century, Donald, son of Oran, Prince of Fermanagh, came to Scotland, and for services rendered in driving the Dynes, with great slaughter, out of the province of Moray, the King invested him with the barony of Easter Dingwall—from the Peffrey to the Water of Allness. Having been born on the banks of the Roe,' in the county of Derry, he was styled the Man of R)e,' subsequently changed to Man-de-ro— Monro, or Munro, and the district bears his name to this day, viz., Ferrindonnuil, or Donald's Land. With the the late chief and baronet, Sir Ilugh, terminated the male line of Colonel Robert of Obsdale, afterwards Sir Robert Munro of Fowlis, the family honours having de scended to the present baronet, Sir Charle-s, as the lineal male descendant of Sir Robert's brother, Lieutenant- General Sir George Munro, K. 8., who married the lion. Christian Hamilton, eldest daughtc r to the first Viscount Boyne. Sir George entered the Swedish service, and commanded a division of Gustavus Adolphus's army at the battle of Lutzen. On the breaking out of the civil war, he returned to England, and served in the royal army —was second in command of the royal army in Ireland, under the Marquis of Ormond, in 16n—com manded a division o f t h e S cotch army under General Leslie—joined Charles the Second in Holland after the battle of Worcester ; and, on the Restoration, was made Commander-in -Chief in Scotland, for his eminent ser vices to the royal cause.

The Court refused to call the jury. TRIAL OF MR. O'DONOHOE. Heart:constable Williams deposed to the same fact, and identified Mr. O'Dcnohoe as being at the police barrack. He, however, felt bound to state, that 'the prisoner at the bar took no part whatever in the conver sation, which took place between himself and Mr. O'Brien. He was, however, in the house, but might not have heard the words that passed. After O'Brien went away ho saw the prisoner in the street; ho should say it was about half an hour after. lie did not, however, salute him, or smile at him; he appeared to be comIel; from mass, and was unarmed. Itobert Mahoney, a police-constable, was about to prove the delivery of some speeches at Callan by Mr. o'l3rion, when Mr. BUTT submitted it was rot admissible evidence as against the prisoner, and the Cotrrt held that at that stage of the proceedings it was not advisable to do so. The Court then adjourned at seven o'c:ock. PARDON FJR, SMITH OTRIEN.—A meeting was held last evening at the Circus Royal, Circus -street, for the purpose of adopting a petition to the Queen, praying for a mitigation of sentence in the case of Smith O'Brien and also the English Chartist prisoners. The chair was taken by 1)r. Webb, who expressed his hope that as the Government was strong, so it would be mer ciful ; and Ministers might depend upon it no better means could be found of conciliating the Chartists than 1 a show of leniency to the unfortunate men who were at present in their power. He had been chairman of the first meeting in favour of Frost, Williams, and Jones, and he hoped he should he equally successful in the ob ject of the present meeting. There was no danger of iusurrection here. The people bad too much sense, seeing, as they did, that the people of Paris were much worse off after all the blood that had been sh than they had been before. Government, h owever , might sc take a lesion from the . French Republicans in the ode ration with which they had treated their political oppo nents. One or two speakers then addressed the meet ing, a petition for pardon was adopted, and the meeting separated. EAST INDIA MAA—A statement has recently been printed of the total cost of ifansmitting the mails and dispatches between Bombay and Suez, by the East India Company, and towards which the sum of 5 - 0,000/. per annum is granted out of the revenue of the United Kingdom, &c., during the years 1845. 1846, and 1847. The total net charge to the Company 13r the year 1844- 45, for transmitting the mails between M,mbay and Suez was 43,1471. ; for the year 1845-46, the net amount was 50,9071. ; and for the year 1846 47 it was 55,1311. The charges for this last year are thus made up :-17,125/. for the wages and allowances of officers, crews, engi -1 nears, &c., of steam-vessels ; 42 . 111 /. for victualling, coals, and other stores ; 58,536/. for calculated charge of r 10 per cent. for repairs, 5 per cent. for depreciation, 6 per cent. for sea risk, 4 per cent. for interest per annum in cost of vessels employed ; 15,700/. for expenses de frayed in Egypt, including salaries of agents in Egypt and Malta. These items make a total charge of 133,4721. from which is to be deducted 25,718/, for net amount of passage money received by the East India Company, 2,6231. for amount of freight, and 50,000/. granted out of the revenue of the United Kingdom. The cost of transmitting the bi-monthly mails between Bombay and, Aden for the year 1845-46, was 24,253/.; and for the year 1846-47, it was 33,6301. There are ten &tease vessels employed in this service, varying in size from the Atalanta of 616 tons and 210 horse-power, to the Mooznffer of 1,440 tons and 500 horse power. JESUS COLLEGE CHAPEL.—This chapel has under gone a complete restoration, and the works which have been so long in progress are now nearly completed. When actually finished the interior of this beautiful edi fice will rival in variety, richne• s, and tastefulness of its decoration, the finest chapels in the uni vers ity. I n th e course of the repairs, a number of beautiful arches have been revealed, which the barbarous and almost sacrili gious stupidity of former ages had carefully concealed behind clumsy masses of brick work and plaster. All this patchwork has been removed, and the exquisite beauty of the original fabric is now not only developed, but even improved and expanded. The window at the east end of the chapel is altogether new—new is material, but not new in design; for with its beautiful cloisters of slender columns, dividing it into three lights, it is formed exactly on the model of the architect's original plan. When this and the other windows are titled with stained glass, and when the square panels of the lofty ) roof are decorated with beeuti ul paintings (a rose and I crown), we venture to affirm that the interior of Jesus' Chapel will be unique and almost unrivalled. Unfortu nately a portion of the nave, adjoining the reaster'e lodge, was converted at some former ee riod iota fuels nt'a rooms—a fact which was recently made mini act in the course of s,. me repairs, when, us in the body of the cha pel, arches acre discovered Cat:, had been pla tcrcd over. This misfortune it is now impossible to i etrievc. Tho chapel cannot be extended toe ards the wet t to its former limits; bat towards the cast it has been enlarged; end a new uisle has been erected exactly on the original foun dation of that part of the building. A splendid organ is I now in course of erection. We repeat that, when finished, I the interior of the chapel will be exceedingly beautiful. —Cambridge Ackerti%er. THE COGGESVALL AND lIALSTEAD ROBBERIES.— Pulice-corlstable Clay den, who has been for some days engaged in tracing evidence respecting robberies in and around Coggeshall, obtained from the magistrate a war rant for the apprehension of Anthony Patten, sen., a farmer at Chappel, which he executed, and conveyed his prisoner before the justices. Patten was remanded for further examination on the charge of stealing 18 sacks of , barley, 9 sacks of beans, and 18 bushels of tares, the I property of C. Skingley, Esq., of Coggeshall. The Halstead burglars were yesterday committed for trial for robbery and sacrilege. Dispatches were sent off yesterday .evening from the Colonial-office for the Governor of Canada, and also for the Governors of the other North. American Colonies. Patrick O'Donohoe was then placed at the bar, and, as in the case of Mr. O'Brien, when called on to plead, declined to do so until he put in a plea respecting the panel and the point raised as to his right to have fur nished him the list of witnesses. Whin that was done, he pleild, d not guilty in a clear, fii w tone, and the fol lowing jury was then sworn:—W. C. Bennett, William Murphy Msurice Studdart, George Birch, Charles W. Massey, William Price, Ralph S. Smith, Charles Min chin, Robat Young, Alexander Carew, George Roo, and George Siuithwick, On the application ot Mr. F. Meagher, Mr. Butt was assigned us s,uior Conas,l of the prisoner. Mr. O'llono hoe, like those accused with him, seems to have made up his mind that he will be convicted, for, on his arraign ment, ho displayed no anxiety whatever, but, on the contrary, evinced a carelessness which almost amounted to levity. He is a man of very unprepossessing appear ance, with a countenance dark and determined, -dis playing great firmness of purpose, and an almost utter recklessness of manner, which fitted him admirably for being an agent in a rebellion. lie is not only bold. and brave, but a clever man, and one whose daring and other qualities, to which iG is unne- Cevoral Porters Waited.

Dunr.ix, OCT. 13.--The meeting called for to-day to promote a public petition, that the recommenda tion of the jury in the case of Mr. Smith O'Brien should be conceded by the Government, was com posed of representatives of all parties, save perhaps the extreme Repealers and the extreme Tories. Mr. Sharman Crawford, M.P., presided. In consequence of a report prevailing that the warrant of execution of Mr. S. O'Brien had been forwarded, an immediate deputation was appointed to wait on the Lord- A t ieutenant to ascertain the fact, and arrangements were made to have a memorial signed as exten sively as the time would permit, which will be pre sented by deputation. The following is a copy of the memorial:— " To his Excellency the Earl of Clarendon, Lord High Chancellor of Ireland, &e. May it please your Excel lency, we, the undersigned, consisting principally of the inhabitants of Dublin and its vicinity, respectfully ad dress your Excellency as the representative in Ireland of her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen. We fully concur in the recommendation of the jury, by whom William Smith O'Brien has been found guilty, and we humbly and earnestly entreat that her Majesty's prero gative of mercy may be exercised by your Excellency in favour of Mr. O'Brien." The following is the official announcement made to the meeting of yesterday of the interview with Lord Clarendon : Mr. Sharman Crawford having retaken the chair, stated the result of their interview with his Excellency. He said: we were detained a considerable time in con sequence of the Lord-Lieutenant being out; but as soon as he returned, we sent up the memorial which was adopted here to-day, and he immediately received us. I explained to him the reason why we came so promptly —that oar apparent urgency arose from a report that had been stated at the meeting to the effect that a war-- rant had been issued for the execution of Mr. O'Brien— that for .tat reason -the tieputation which then- waited upon his Excellency was appointed for the purpose of in quiring —first, whether there was any truth in that re port; and secondly. whether his Excellency would be pleased to receive a deputation at a futuro day to present that memorial after it had received more extensive six. natures? His Excellency, in reply, said, first, he had no hesitation in stating that the report of any warrant having been sent down to Clonmel was utterly false and unfounded; and, secondly, that he should be ready to receive a deputation to present the memorial, when he was informed that it had obtained signatures to the ex tent which the promoters of it desired. THE SPECIAL COMMISSION. TRIAL OF INPMANUS. CLONMEL, OCT. 12.—The Court sat this morning at half-past nine o'clock, and was attended at that early hour by few indeed, except those compelled to be pre sent. Very little interest appears to be felt for Mr. WManus, except by his immediate friends and con nexions, who are here to give him the benefit of their advice and assistance. The principal scene in this me lancholy drama has closed, if we except the trial of Mr. Meagher, whose case promises to afford as much inte rest as that of Smith O'Brien himself. As soon as Mr. M•Manus appeared at the bar the proceedings com menced. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL rose to reply on behalf of the Crown. After some prefatory observations, he pro ceeded to say that he had had some experience in a court of justice, but it was the first time he ever heard counsel say that a jury was bound to agree as to what the ver dict should be before- they heard the charge of the Learned Judge who may try the case. That indeed was new doctrine to him, for he had always conceived that when counsel in their zeal on behalf of their client, misled the jury in points of law, or as regarded the evidence, the Court always stepped in, and in the proper administration of justice, explained the subject matter to them. The two questions they should have to try were, first, was the rising which took place in July last, in this county, fcr general purposes, no matter what particular object was immediately in view? and, secondly, was that a levying of war for the purpose of effecting a revolution in the laws and constitution of the realm at which the prisoner was present? If a man set up as a leader in the country, at the head of an armed force, and told the !people it was their duty to protect him from arrest, for the purpose of carrying on a general object of insurrection, that was as much treason as if he had at once proceeded at the head of an armed force in actual and open rebellion. Now, as regarded the pri soner at the bar, another question they had to decide was, whether he was engaged in any part of these melan choly transactions, and what part he took in it? They had the evidence of more than ten witnesses who iden tified him in the proceedings at Mullinahone and Bal lingarry, and it appeared to him that, next to Mr. O'Brien, he was the most prominent leader among them. They . should ask themselves what brought Mr. O'Brien, a gentleman of rank, fortune, station, and family, to an obscure village like Mtsllina hone, forty miles from his own home and tenantry, and fOr what purpose did be go there? Had they any doubt, from the evidence produced, that he went there to rouse the people to armed resistance against the lawful authorities of the country ; and that were it not for the prompt measures taken to suppress it, the jury, in all probability, would not now bo trying that case, but be, perhaps, engaged in a sanguinary and desperate struggle for life and property. As regarded the prisoner at the bar, he (the Solicitor-General) should ask the jury who he was, and what brought him to Ballingarry on the 28th of July lie, a Liverpool merchant, of re spectability, and in good business, is found there on that day, drilling an armed party, as if by a miracle. Tho prisoner no doubt denied, and ho (the Solicitor-General) gave him the benefit of it, that he was an English Char tist ; but if ho were not an English Chartist, he was an Irish Revolutionist. Then, again, great stress had been laid on the assertion that reporters from the newspapers were admitted to the meeting at Liverpool, but it was not so. It was distinctly proved in evidence that they were excluded, and, if present, why not have them summoned to contradict the evid4ce of the police ? The police themselves were obliged to go in coloured clothes to such meetings, and prohibited using note-books or taking notes, because had they done so they would not have been permitted to remain. What, he would again ask, brought Mr. I!..lelLinus from Liverpool to Dublin with out any luggage ? Mr. O'CALLeotelei observed that it was his intention to have returned the same evening. The SOLICITOR GENERAL resumed—lt was said he was about to go to Liverpool in the evening, but if so, why did he tell the steward of the vessel to take care of his tin box, which contained the uniform of the 'B2d Club ? Because he might perhaps return. If his object was to avoid arrest in Liverpool the jury should recol lect that the Habeas Corpus Act was not suspended in England, and that in coming to Dublin he exposed him self to the very danger he wished to avoid. And what, ho would again ask, brought him to Ballingarry? lle was, as they had heard in evidence, a native of Ulster. and an advocate for the tenant-right—but why did he not go from Dublin to his friends and relatives in that province instead of to Mullinahone, where he was found with Mr. O'Brien, coquetting with the allegiance of the police. That was not a levying of war, forsooth, against the authority of the Crown. They would be told, he had no doubt, by many outside the box in which they sat, that such a levying of war could not take place until the people from the hills of Waterford and the Gaulties of Tipperary came down and stormed Clonmel I That, in the opinion of many, woule constitute only a levying of war; but their Lordships on the bench would tell them dif ferently. From Mullinahone they found the prisoner at Kil lenaule, :assisting in erecting a barricade; they found him on a horse, which, as usual on all similar occasions, he pressed into his service—drilling armed men, and doing all those acts which constituted an open insurrec tion. The Learned Counsel next referred to the docu ments given in evidence particularly the fatal letter to the Mining Company, an% proceeded to comment on the affair at the widow M'Cormack's house, where the con flict took place between the police and the people. On that melancholy occasion Mr. M`Manus was found taking an active and a controlling part. It was in evidence that he gave directions to have the house burned, and it was positively sworn that he was the person who took con stable Carrot a prisoner. Then they had the evidence of Mr. Lloyd, a young gentleman who was stopped on the road by the prisoner at the bar. He asked him the number of troops at Kilkenny—the strength of the army at Willingford—whether he was himself a courier—or if a force was on the road marching towards Ballingarry? What did all these things mean but a plain manifest determination to resist the constituted authorities by force? The prisoner at the bar was bound up with his leader Mr. O'Brien; he was bound by his acts and in • tentions—he should stand or fall with him; and he (the Solicitor-General) therefore submitted that the jury were bound tQ return a verdict of guilty against him. Chief Justice DollEßTf then charged the jury. The case (he said) having now drawn to a close, it became his duty, as the organ of the Court, to make a few ob servations to them in laying down the law before he pro ceeded to read to them his notes of the evidence; and it would be a gratification to bear that lie did not antici pate it would he necessary for him to trespass long on their attention, because the law, as applicable to the case, was so perfectly settled by the highest authorities, by a long train of decisions, and laid down very recently by th At Court without cavil or dispute. With respect to the evidence, tlsey heard observations made upon it by the able counsel at both sides; and as an apprehension seernc , d to have existed that it was the intention of the Court to trespass on their peculiar duties, and were about to interfere with what was exclusively their pro vince in dealing with the facts, let him at once set their minds at ease, and assure them that it was not the wish of the Judges in the slightest degree to invade their province. The responsibility of applying the facts to the law rested altogether with them, and if ever there was a o case where it was unnecessary by anticipation f counsel to make such an observation, that • was peculiarly the case, because if there was any difficulty in it, it would arise in appl) ing the law to the farts of the case; but none reap( ctiug the conduct of the witnesses. Long as that trial lasted—and ho was far from saying it lasted too long—a ease was never brought before a jury with less impeachment to the credit of the witnesses, a less die- mg - - 1011 U. - *, G Mr pi No. 17 / 489.] LONDON.
