MANCHESTER AND LIVERPOOL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. (Abridged from the 1114 chester Courier.) The dinner of this society took place yr sterday even ing in the large room adjoining the Palatine Hotel (Mr. Adcock's), generally- used as a riding school. The room, which is a mcst corimodious one, was elegantly fitted up fur the occasion. It contained 11 cross tables, and the principal table (at which sat the Noble Chair man), ran the entire length of the room. Tee chair was taken by the Right Hon. Lord Stanley at half-past fur o'clock. Upwards of 400 gentlemen sat down to dinner, and amongst them we observed Mr. J. Wilson Patten, M.P., Mr. William Brown, M.P., who supported the chair right and loft; the Mayor of Man chester (Mr. E. Armitage), Sir Richard Brooke, Sir Thomas J. de Trafford, Mr. Humphrey de Trafford, Mr. Cecil Trafford, Sir John Duckworth, Mr. J. Mined:, M P., Mr. Mark Philips, late M.P. for Manchester; Mr. John Moore, F.L.S., Mr. G. W. Ormerod, F.G.S., Sir I3enjansin Heywood, Mr. Peter Clare, Mr. C. J. S. Walker, Mr. T. Hampson (steward to the Earl of Wil ton), Mr. S. Brooke, Mr. SJivler, Mr. J. Neilson, Mr. leasc Picton, Mr. Commissioner Jemmott, Mr. J. Con sterdine, Mr. J. Ireland Blackburne, Colonel Brooker, Mr. T. Townley Parker, Mr. Josias Booker, Liverpool; Mr. G. Booker, Liverpool; Mr. J. Wagstaff, Warring ton; Mr. P. Ainsworth, Bolton; Captain Blackburn, Mr. Anderson, the c immitbee of the society, the judges at the exhibition (whose names will be found above), &c. The cloth having been removed, The Noble CHAIRMAN rose and proposed " The health of her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria." —(Cheers.) He need not say this toast was to be drunk with three times three.—(Tremendous cheering.) His LORDSHIP shortly after rcse, and proposed "The health of her Majesty time Queen Dowager, Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family."—(Cheering.) The Noble Ci.teeaxest next said, he had now to pro pose " The health of the Gallant Defenders of this country—the Army and Navy." It was now, he be lieved, a period of somewhere about thirty-three years since this country was exposed to all the vicissitudes, to gether with the triumphs, of a great and general war fare; and sinco that period our troops had been, in the eye of the world, comparatively unemployed. He did not mean to say that in both services there had not been gallant exploits performed, which showed that neither British soldiers nor sailors had degenerated in their prowess or efficiency and valour. The sailor had been well and arduously tried in the conflicts on the coasts of Africa and with the pirates of the East Indian seas, and the prowess of the British arms had been gallantly and manfully sustained on the continent of India under Hardinge and Gough, and other less distinguished but not less deserving names, who had led them uniformly to suMess—(Clseers)—and victory—(Renewed cheers) —and he thought it was not in these days of economy and demand for every possible retrenchment—it was not unbecoming that, in a great assembly like that which he had the honour to address, he should remind them that there was no army in the world which performed in time of general and profound peace the same amount of harass ing duty which fell upon and was cheerfully discharged by the British soldier.—(hear.) The plan which the military authorities had always been desirous of acting upon was, that the soldier should have five years of ser vice at home for every ten years of service upon a foreign station ; but to this maximum they had never been able to attain, and ordinarily it happened that regi ments coming home from foreign countries, the skeletons of sshat they were, were again sent out to bear the vicis siterfles of British tropical colonies within a period of three years after returning from foreign service of four teen or fifteen years. At this moment the British army for this country, for all its widely-extended colonies— about forty in number, besides the continent of India— barely exceeded in amount the force which France kept on foot fur the occupation and management of the French possessions of Algeria alone.—(Hear.) He thought this fact was in itself sufficient to show that there was little reason, and still less wisdom and policy on the part of those who, looking at figures and sums of money alone, complained of the amount and expense of the British naval atid military force.—(Hear.) He called on them to drink the toast he proposed—" The Army and Navy of this country."—(Loud cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then rose and said,—Gentlemen, I rise to prapose to you a bumper toast, and in offering to you the toast of " Prosperity to the Liverpool and Man chester Agricultural S3tiety," I must begin by express ing the pleasure which I feel at finding myself called upon to preside over the first meeting of this united so ciety, add at finding realist-A an object in which I have long felt a deep interest,—being convinced that the union of these societies would tend to the mutual ad vantage of both of them, and also would tend to effect that which is the object of all societies like the present —an increase of competition and a stimulus to exertion. The Liverpool Agricultural Society had been in exist ence for a period of eighteen years, during which I have had the honour of holding the situation of president of that society—(Hear, hear)—and for the last few years, while I have watched with the deepest interest—an in terest shared I am sure by many around me, and I may add with the greatest satisfaction, the progress which that society had made, and the improvements effected in the district to which it belonged, which were mainly at tributable to the exertions and influence of the society— when I noticed the advancement which has been made by the practical application of science in the cultivation of th 6 land—l have yet felt for the last few years a grow ing conviction that great advantage would be gained if the sphere of the operations of that society were extended by its amalgamation with its elder sister—the Man chester Agricultural Association.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I would not be supposed to mean to undervalue the ex ertions or the efforts of small local agricultural societies. —(Hear, hear.) On the contrary, in the in fancy of agricultural improvement, or rather at the earliest period of that spirit of competition and enter prise that leads to agricultural improvement, I should almost go the length of saying that the smaller the range of the society the greater the prospect of its being bene ficial by leading to improvements (Hear, hear) because every man is more willing to enter into :com petition with a small number of rivals, of whose capacity he is able to form a more correct estimate; and many a man will enter into competition with a small society who would be disinclined to enter the lists with one whose range was of a more extended character.—(Hear hear.) But the spirit of rivalry once excited and brought into action, the extension of the range of the society, in my judgment, tends to increase the amount of the stimulus, and the extent of the competition. — (Hen, hear.) It brings the competitor into] contact with his neighbour, and into a range of an infinitely superior description to that which it was in his power to attain in his own less limited range; and his views and feelings being thus raised he makes efforts towards a higher scale of excellence, and those efforts must ever be succeeded by the attainment of the object which the competitor has in view. I think too, that great advan tages are derived by the localities in which meet ings of such societies are held, and that great advantage results to a ptace from having some society connected with it.—(Cheers.) I am sure it is impossible to see the effects which were produced, locally, by any of the meetings of the Royal Agricultural Society of England, without being Convinced that the peripatetic nature of the society, if I may so call it, does materially add to the improvement of agriculture generally.— (Cheers.) Therefore, gentlemen, for these and other rea sons I have long been, as I have said, anxious to see a 'anion effected between these two societies.—(Cheers.) I rejoice to see it effected, and under, I hops, favourable auspices for its future success.—(Cheers.) Trifling difficulties, of course, there must be; no doubt some little jealousies will occur, and some difficulties will have to be smoothed over and removed in the spirit of mutual accommodation. But if that spirit exists generally amongst the subscribers of the society which I believe does exist, the result, I cannot hesitate to believe, will be productive of interest and advantage both to the two societies themselves and to the united district over which their joint exertions are to extend.—(Cheers.) I cannot, gentlemen, think, whatever others may do, that a great commercial town like Manchester is an unimportant situation for the holding of a meeting of a great agricultural society.—(Cheers.) None know better than the agricukurists acct the manufacturers— and I speak in the presence of both classes belong * to L.ineas l ).ire and Cheshire—how much they are dependendQut on each other fur their mutual prosperity and success. The agriculturist well knows that the prosperity of the macufacturing and commercial districts and the well-being of trade, secures good customers, an abundant market and favourable prices. The manufac turer knowsais well, that if by a visitation of Providence the harvest of this country should be deficient, the con sequences must be not only dangerous to the agricul turist, but must also injuriously affect him and his best, his most extensive, and his nearest market.—(Cheers.) Therefore the interests of agriculture and commerce are intimately connected in this great country, and I think it a most appropriate place for the first meeting of this united Manchester and Liverpool Agricultural Society to be held in —this, the great metropolis of British manufactures.—(Loud cheers.) Again, gentlemen, there is one great advantage, I think, of peculiar pro priety, in the society meeting here, because it is not to be denied that the neighbourhood of these great towns, the neighbourhood of these constant and opulent markets, that the facilities for the cultivation of land afforded by these gseat towns and these markets, give them ate& a great stimulus a nd ass i s t ance i n the spread d carrying out of agricultural operations. —(Hear.) (.416El en, I must be permitted to express some doubt whether in this to respect the agricultural interest was thesesotiffacleatly. alive the great importance of the vicinity large towns or sufficiently aware of the im portant benefits which (Ilear)—l doubt whe therlethey might derive from them— commercial towns , , in the neighbourhood of great likether Manchester and others of a similar character, e are the same advantages taken by the neighbouringfar mers t of the facilities afforded to them of a due expendit ure capital, and an expensive, perhaps, but not aln see in cultivation of the land. —(Hear, hear.) o f small pl o t s of lan a d re not they can scarcelyde be called ; farmers at all they on roniti,g nendent mainly on th e the m os t o f t h e pro ducecultivation of the soil, of the soil for their livelihood and su pport ploymeof ; they horses *rugt io too much to the clients' em towns, nother and carts in carting coal for their neighbours, open lions connected witli the labour of the and in sti lying the tawns of this kingdom with milk, the produce-of cows fed on undrained , rushy , ill-cultivated farms.—(Cheers.)- Gentlemen, I have no hesitation in saying, that the agriculturists in the neighbour hood of these 'great manufacturing and commercial . towns, if they desire to thrive, must change their system —they mast apply themselves to make the most of their land—,(Cheers)--and, to make the most of their land, they must adopt the legitimate means of farming it, of cultivating it, and of manuring it, as it ought to be drained, cultivated, and manured. And for this, perhaps, they in the immeditte vicinity of a great town like Man 43hester enjoy advantages which no other portion of the common has. On thwaubjeot of drainage, gentlemen, I will not say a word, because there is no man whoshas I;sOked at the A B C of farming but must admit that in respect to the drainage of land, though much has been done much remains to be done, and how absolutely null and void in various parts of the country are what are called agricultural improvements, upltss such improve ments be preceded fiy- deep, thorough, and effectual drainage.—(Cheers.) The subject to whieh I ,ifish to draw the attention of those I have now the honour of ad ' dressing, and a subject to which I think it is desirable the public attention of this country should be called—as hardly a less important one—is the use, or rather the present waste and abuse of manure, for which the neighbourhood of these great towns furnishes the farmers with such incalculable advantages.—(Hear.) There are now great facilities given by railroads for bringing pro duce easily into the markets of the great towns. I have been told, such are the facilities afforded by this mode of conveyance, that the best fish market in England is the town of Birmingham, the most central town in the whole kingdom, and that the consumption of this and other perishable articles is vastly on the increase, for the facilities aff)rded by the rail way equalizes the ad van tages of the neighbouring and more distant consumer. lam afraid to name the sums which the London and North-Western Company some years ago began to make in the carriage of milk, from comparatively distant dis tricts of the land to Liverpool alone, doing away with the exclusive advantages afforded to the farmers in the neighbourhood. The same fact is universally in opera tion, but the farmers living in the neighbourhood of great towns cannot be deprived of many of the means of high cultivation of their land, by the great abundance of the manure which they may derive from such a neighbourhood. And, gentlemen, it does strike me, as a'matter of surprise—though perhaps it is not altogether within the range of agricultural science—it strikes me with s urprise when I see around Manchester and all the great towns of Lancashire and Cheshire, as far I know, the practice of market gardening and high cultivation carried on in the neighbourhood of London, chiefly through being near a large supply of manure—it strikes me with surprise to see such gardening comparatively if not wholly neglected.—(Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, among the admirable arrangements of Providence, per haps there is none more admirable than that which pro vides for a perpetual succession and sustentation of ani mal and vegetable life—than that which, according to recent discoveries, sufficiently proves the same gases aro deleterious and destructive to the one and the necessary aliment and sutentation of the other, and that that which is thrown off as injurious to the one is absorbed by the other, and tends to its support and maintenance—none more admirable than that by which perpetual corruption and decay, to which all earthly things are subject, and to which even the refuse of the food that has done its part in sustaining animal life is subject, is made the element for increased fertility, trea sure, and re-production—(Cheers)---yet, I ask, whether it be not the fact, that in all the large towns of this country, from year to year, from week to week, hundreds of thousands of tons of invaluable treasure, a mine of wealth if properly applied in the cultivation of the soil, are not only absolutely wasted and destroyed, but are suffered to accumulate in pestilential heaps, producing disease, pestilence, and death, instead of being applied to that which they were intended to aid—the fertility of the soil and the sustentation of the rapidly growing population of the country.—(Cheers.) Public attention, and, following public attention, the attention of the Legislature, has been recently called to this subject, and a step has been taken towards the remedy of the melancholy and deplorable grievance —an attempt to remedy the defect of imperfect, or the absence of all sewerage and drainage in great towns, thereby adding vastly to the disease and mortality of the population. Steps are taking, therefore, for the purpose of effecting a discharge of the deposits of the great towns, so that they may not be prejudicial to the health and interests of the inhabitants. But when this is effected we have only done one-half of our work. Our object is to im prove the hea o lth of great towns, and, in doing so, to get rid of, as fast as possible, and to waste that, which, if we knew how to economise it, would be greatly benefi cial to the population. There is no subject more worthy of the consideration of the community at large ; pri vate individuals have directed their attention to it, and plans more or less of a practical, nature have been put forth ; but depend upon it there is no subject more worthy of the attention of this country—first, as the means of getting rid of an intolerable nuisance, and next, of converting that intolerable nuisance into a source of wealth. Then, any plan that could be devised for carry ing off the unwholesome deposits of the great towns of this country, and at the same time rendering them avail able in the operations of agriculture, diffusing them over the fields of this country and making them available in the produce of wealth, would be a public benefit. I conceive this subject is one of deep importance to the country, and I trust you have not thought either the occasion or the place inappropriate for calling your at tention to it.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I revert then, for a single moment, to that which is the more immediate object of the toast which I am about to propose to you— " Success to the Manchester and Liverpool Agricultural Society."—(Cheers.) I will not trouble you with many details as to the show we have witnessed to. day. I have myself not had the advantage of witnessing any previous show at Manchester; but certainly the effect produced on my mind is this, that if much has been done—and I believe much has been done—l must honestly tell you the effect on my mind is that much yet remains to be done.—(Cheers.) I say nothing of the pigs, because for many years past the pigs exhibited at the shows at Liverpool and Manchester have been of unrivalled qua lity.—(Hear, hear.) I saw two or three bulls that struck me as being very valuable. And not only from what I saw in the yard, but from constant intercourse with my neighbours and tenants, I conceive that there is a very great improvement in the Nature and character of the tenant-farmer's stock.—(Cheers.) I wish I could say anything in praise of the exhibition of horses.— (Hear.) I believe any person at random mightgo into the streets of Manchester or Liverpool, and in the course of a couple of hours might find horses at least equal to any I saw to•day in the show-yard.—(" Hear," and a laugh.) There is one point with reference to which I may be permitted to say the society has proceeded satisfactorily. I see that your last year's receipts for admission to the showyard were 107/. ; this year they amount to 146/. (Cheers.) I perceive from this a growing inclination on the part of the public to support such societies, and I mean to say I augur favourably from that.—(Cheers.) I am bound to say, not looking alone to the reports of the inspectors, though they are in the highest degree satisfactory—l am bound to say that, within my own knowledge and observation—and I know I shall be con firmed by many present, there has been a general im provement of farms in the general agricultural system, in the science adopted, and in the practical application of that science to the land, on the part of the tenant-farmers in Lancashire and Cheshire there has been a very great and marked improvement during the course of the last twelve years.—(Cheers.) There are in this district many farmers that would do credit to any county in England—l was almost going to say to any county in England or Scotland.—(Loud cheers.) I rejoice to see in the inspectors' report one farm described as approacu ing as nearly to the perfection of management as it is possible to conceive. —(Cheers.) I rejoice also—and I • hope there is no presumption in doing so—l rejoice also in seeing that three of the prizes for the best managed farms have been awarded to three of my father's tenants living in different parts of his estate.—(Cheers.) Every well-judging and well-disposed landlord feels the pros perity of his tenant as the prosperity of himself and of his possessions—he feels his tenant's welfare to be his own interest, setting aside all ocher considerations of moral feeling between landlord and tenant—such a landlord feels a satisfaction and a pleasure in being at the head not only of a contented but a thriving tenantry.—(Applause.) While, on the one hand, jus- tice requires I should thank those landlords who have liberally come forward to assist their tenants in their attempts to improve, and shown so great a desire for their welfare and the prosperity of agriculture by their presence this day, I must also express my regret that we have not the pleasure of seeing a larger proportion of the landed proprietors of the country .—(Cheers.) There are some fur whom I need make no excuse—who are unavoidably absent, and among them I have been espe cially requested to make an apology for the absence of my Noble Friend and relation, the Earl of Wilton, who was present at the showyard this morning, and intended to be present at the dinner, but was compelled to give up his intention for the purpose of receiving the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who arc to arrive at Heaton in the course of the evening.—(Cheering.) He par ticularly requested me to make au apology fur his absence. I have detained you for a considerable length of time, and. I wish to apologise for doing so. I trust you will not merely give your acquiescence and reception to the toast I am now about to pro pose, but that you will show by your conduct you are determined to do away with any little obstacles or diffi culties that may be in the way of the union of the two societies; and do all in your paw to carry out that which is the object of the toast, and which I trust will long continue—" The Prosperity and Welfare of the United Manchester and Liverpool Agricultural Society." The CHAIRMAN again rose, and proposed " The health of the Patrons—the Earl of Derby and Mr. Wilbraham Egerton." Mr. J. WILSON PATTEN, NI.P., said he had obtained permission of the chairman to propose a toast, and he (Mr. Patten) thought he was making no improper selection when he chose the health of his . Noble Friend the President.(Cheers.) The private and the public character of his Noble Friend were too well known in the county to render it necessary to make the toast ac ceptable to them by any observations on the part of the party proposing it.—(Hear, hear.) The health of the Chairman was then drunk with three times three and one cheer more. The CHAIRMAN, who was received with enthusiastic cheering, having acknowledged the toast, some other toasts were given, and the Noble Chairman having dis tributed the prizes, the meeting broke up at an early hour. very crowded ST. MAST'S, LAMBETH.—Thursday meeting of the ratepayers of the above parish assembled in tha vestry-room for the purpose of ensbling the over seers and churchwardens to nominate and appoint a successor to Mr. Thomas Woodward, the late collector or poor-rates, &c., who has absconded with 1,600/. The Rev. Mr. Dalton, the rector, presided. Mr. Field was nominated and seconded, amidst some disapprobation, as the successor of Mr. Woodward. The question was then put, and after a protest from Mr. Byron, Mr. Field was declared duly elected. A meeting of the inhabitants is fixed to take place on the 29th, when the entire matter is to undergo examination.

CLONDIEL, THURSDAY, SEPT. 21.—At nine o'clock the gentlemen of the press from Englund, Dublin, and the provinces, anticipating a crowded court, took pos session of the places appropriated to them by the High Sheriff, Richard Pennetather, Esq. At this time the police-constables, who were stationed at the doors, were the only persons present. By ten o'clock a large con course of persons had occupied parts of the Court-house, and at eleven o'clock the public gallery, side bars, and grand jury galleries were filled. Mr. Hodges, and two assistants, were in attendance as the reporters for the Government. At half-past eleven o'clock the Attorney-General, the SolicitoasGeneral, Mr. Scott, Q.C., Mr. Sausse, and Mr. David Lynch, entered the court, and took their seats as counsel for the Crown. The places behind these were occupied by other members of the bar. No counsel appeared for the prisoners. At twenty minutes to twelve o'clock Chief Justice Blackburne, Chief Justice Doherty, and Justice Moore took their seats on the bench, when Henry Peddar, Esq., Clerk of the Crown, read the commission under the great sell, nominating the judges, or any one or more of them, to inquire into all manner of treason, murders, inanslaughteis, offences, transgres sions, and evil doings by whom committed cr perpetrated within the county of Tipperary, as well against the peace of the common law as statute. The following grand jury were then sworn:—Richard John Lord Viscount Shirdale, Knocklofty, foreman; the Hon. Cornelius Callaghan, Shanbally Castle; Hon. Francis A. Prittie, Corville; Hon. R. tidy Hutchinson, Knocklofty; Sir John Craven Carden. Bart., Priory; Sir Edward Waller, Bart., Knockree; William Ponsonby Barker, Kilcooley; Stephen Moore, Berne; John Bag well, Mar Meld; Ambrose Going, Ballyphilip; Mathew Pennefather, Newpark; Lieutenant-Colonel Wray Pal liser, Derryluskar; John Bayley, Debsborough; Caleb Going, Traverston; Thomas Lawler, Cregg House; James Lenigan, Castle Fogarty; and Joseph Cooke, Cordangan. The CHIEF JUSTICE then, addressing the grand jury, said—Gentlemen of the grand jury for the county of Tipperary, I feel assured that you participate in my feelin g , and in that of every person who has the peace and happiness of the country sincerely at heart, in the regret that her Gracious Majesty has now, after the lapse of but a few months, found it necessary to issue a commission which has been just read to you, and by which she calls upon her subjects to aid her by perform ing their duty in the administration of the criminal law of the land. Distressing and deplorable as such a mea sure would bo under any circumstances, it becomes so in the last degree when we know that that measure has originated in machinations and attempts which consti tute the crime of high treason—a crime the highest in degree that a subject of the realm or a member of the community can commit—a crime whose object is the total destruction of our social system, the sub version of all security of property and of life, and a crime which no reasonable being can con template without knowing that it must lead to the shedding of human blood, and that it must entail upon the country all the horrors and all the miseries of civil and social war. Gentlemen, as I have alluded to the former special commission, in which the greater number of the jurors whom I see before me were called upon to perform their duties in the month of Ja nuary last, I think it but just, and so far it is satisfac tory, to observe that the crimes and outrages which formed the subject of your investigation at that period do not appear to have any connexion, as far as I am in formed, with the matters that will now be brought under your consideration ; upon the contrary, I have reason to believe, and I do sincerely hope that the firm admi nistration of the law under that commission, and at the assizes which have since intervened, have been attended with the most salutary effects, and well justified the hope of the restoration of peace and order in your county. Gentlemen, the crime of high treason is one happily of such unusual occurrence; and one with respect to which there are peculiar provisions that do not belong to the investigation of other crimes and misdemeanours, that I think it my duty, in order to assist you in the discharge of yours, to point out to you the peculiarities of the haw relative to that charge, in order that you may regulate your course accordingly, and say in what way the evidence which is to be laid before you is to be applied when you come to consider it; but in the first instance, in order to make these observations,upcn the nature and course of the proceedings perfectly intelligible, I think it my duty to give you a general, and a very general, outline of the nature of the case as it appears to me upon the perusal of the informations which have been laid before you upon the part of the Crown. Gentlemen, it would appear from them that for some .months past a political body, or so ciety formed for political purposes, held its meetings and conducted its proceedings in the city of Dublin; at these meetings there were a number of inflammatory and seditious speeches delivered by the leading members of the body. About the middle, or towards the latter end of July, these members, I mean the leading mem bers, or some of them, appeared in different parts of the south of Ireland, and at last seemed to have determined upon making the county of Tipperary the scene of their further operations. Accordingly largo bodies of people were assembled—they were harangued, and upon more than one occasion it was distinctly an nounced that there was to be an immediate arming of the population, with a view of severing Ireland from the British dominions and erecting it into an independent kingdom. In pursuance of these in structions—which were extended to the procuring of arms by any means whatsoever, legal or otherwise—in the last week of July, several large bodies of men ap pear to have been congregated in a part of the county; they were marshalled, trained, and officers upon some occasions were nominated; barricades were erected in some parts of the county, which, upon one occasion, had the effect of obstructing the march of her Majesty's troops, and which appear to have been designed for the protection of persons against whom warrants had been issued. Upon the 29th of July these proceedings ap peared, at the time at least, to have reached their con summation; a body of police, upon its march to the scene of the disturbance which had taken place, was en countered and nearly surrounded by different armed bo dies of men; the result was they took shelter in a house, and there an actual conflict took place between them and the assailants. Upon the same day another body was similarly assailed. The result in both cases is perfectly known to you. Gentlemen, that is all which I thick it necessary to lay before you preparatory to the statement of those rules which, in respect to the law of treason, are made for your judgment and the re gulation of the court. The indictment contains two distinct daises of counts, and each relates to a distinct treason ; both are founded upon the provisions of an ancient statute—a statute passed so long ago as expressed sayxuetip subjecttiet di the reign of Edward 111., and without troubling you by s h nes a gre t .d t i ooi t nfG c twootethhnn ee - . detailing the language of this statute, it is sufficient for my present phto,eenca p gfiin u esrds r ts p two o oofh s tf e hi c,ethhraesnydoe treason,u twoft o wrw r eihalplsi cro yours, ohhnvasaiysrw coa t e tnst o oisi i d t t n :i ed s i na n t i i c s ni ni c distinct stdos c di o ceni msmtgmi design e a ntu nch s t s heteu i angwri death goieh. en t rai d h est ut e hhb: d :: ho e oeo a efurn t p h eawt enhoioryl the circumstanceshnitlQah have o .r g eeee u n a t o og Queen,ftecitosohf renmaoientditodet thatmur_ that a.ndietaias y ßnt otyo t n s m b ef tpe e oh t rum h ee t t treason h pyi e aan e sonal life or personal safety of the Sovereign—the Sovereign, whether King or Queen, being, under our , Constitution, the representative of the State, any attack upon the sovereign power of the State, is, under that statute, to be taken as an attack upon the person of the Monarch ; and therefore you will have not to consider whether the personal death or actual injury to the son of the Sov ere i gn b e t h e i ntent i on, but wheth er per the designs, as p rove d b y overt acts in the indictment, are o f a character which come under the descripti on o f an attack the sovereign power of th e St ate. Gentlemen,upon I shall put before you some i ns t ances to s h ow that Ig ave correctly stated the law, and that by compassing the death of the Queen you are to under s t an I t h e crime of aiming at the destruction of her sovereign power; and it matters not whether this design be to depo se hr from her Crown, to depose her from her imperial authority over the entire of her dominions, the crime of deposing and crime of compassing her death will be equally com mitted, whether the object be to depose her from the whole of her dominions or any part of her possessions. Gentlemen, I shall now read to you the law, taken from an author of the highest authority, Justice Foster, and also the words of Lord Tenterden, some passages which will show you that I have correctly expounded the words "compassing the death of the Queen" to extend to and comprehend an attack upon her imperial power. Describing the crime of compassing the death of the Monarch, they state as follows: — " Anything wilfully or deliberately done or attempted, whereby the King's life may be endangered, therefore, measures for deposing or imprisoning him, or getting his person into the power of the conspirators, are overt acts," that is, overt acts for the compassing and imagining of the King's death. And again, " Offences which are not of so personal a nature, have, with great propriety, been brought within the same rule, as having a tendency to the same fatal end, though not so imme diately; and therefore the entering into measures, or the concerting with foreigners, or going into a foreign coun try, or even proposing to go thither for that end, are overt acts for the compassing and imagining the King's death." Gentlemen, any offences falling directly under other branches of the statute may be brought within the compassing of the King's death. The levying of war, or the compassing to levy war, are overt acts within this branch of the statute—that is, within the branch of the statute which refers to the compassing of the King's death by high treason; and it has been settled by several im portant cases, and by the opinions of the first writers " that all attempts to depose the King from [the royal title, or to levy war against him, and all consultations or agree ments for the accomplishment of those objects, are overt acts for the compassing and imagining of the King's death." Gentlemen, I have now closed the observations, and stated the authorities which I hope are sufficient to ex plain to you what is meant in this sta tute, and in the indictment which transcribes its terms, by the compass ing or imagining the death of the Monarch. I have in the next place to tell you that the crime of high treason consists altogether in the intention. The mere intention —the mere design against the King's life or his imperial authority is the offence created by the statute. But as the intention or design is, in all cases, or at least in the generality of cases, I might say almost universally, to be inferred from acts or from declarations written or orally made, that intention s. to be collected must have as its basis, and as proof of it, the commission of certain overt acts. No man can dive into the secrets of his fellow creatures ; for the thoughts of the heart are known to one Being only, and therefore the intention and design must always be collected from the acts, the declarations, and those other means and tokens by which, in the ordinary intercourse of life, we judge of the intentions of THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 23, 1848. s men, and the law with respect to high trea s on "makes it necessary for the Crown to- specify particularly in its indictment the overt acts; that is, the acts done, and the means used by the parties charged for the purpose of effectuating the intention imputed to them. Accordingly the indictment which will be submitted to you will con tain the various overt acts, whatever they may be, on which the Crown relies; and in support of these the Crown must satisfy you that some one or more of these overt acts have actually taken place. You must be satisfied by the evidence which the Crown will submit to you, that one or more of these overt acts have actu ally been committed in the manner stated in the indict ment. And further, it is necessary for you to attend to this rule—that not only must one or more overt acts be proved to have been committed, but it is equally neces sary than one overt act shall be proved by two witnesses, or that several overt acts shall be proved by two distinct witnesses. You will not be justified in finding a bill unless there be two witnesses to prove the same head of treason. There must, in short, be two witnesses to prove one overt act, or two witnesses to prove several overt acts. And now, with respect to that which forms the substance of the charge—the intention to be inferred or to be expressly proved, my instruction to you is this—the intention, as I have already observed, is to be inferred from acts, writings, speeches, or de clarations; but so far as respects mere oral declarations, you ought to pay . no regard to acts of treason which may appear in evidence unless th e l anguage i m p u t e d b e connected with some design or some conspiracy. Words by themselves do not constitute an act of high treason. It is only in connexion with acts th a t th e y b ecome evi dence of the intention. And when you are cons id er i ng . the evidence so far as relates to the intention of the party, the only rule which I would have you observe is this, and it is a rule which is appli e d i n a ll our d ea li ngs and transactions during our intercourse in life, not simply a rule of law, but also a rule necessary to be observed w h e never the question of intention or knowledge becomes a matter for investigation. The rule I refer to Is this— " That you are to presume a man means that which is the natural and necessary effect of his own declarations and acts." The other class of counts to which your attention will be directed require very little observation from me—namely, that class of counts by which the party charged may be said to levy war against our Sovereign Lady the Queen i n h er rea l ms . T hat charge also is one which must be grounded upon one or more overt acts ; and the rule to be observed by you in this particular is, that the necessity o f h av i ng t wo w it nesses is the same as I have just now stated to you—but the levy ing of war must be by an insurrection and actual force. It is otherwise not within the meaning of the statute a levying of war, not f o r an y p r i vate , persona l , or particu lar object, but for the purpose of some general innova tion; and I have no hesitation in telling you that, if it should appear from the evidence to your satisfaction, that the objects of these insurrectionary movements were the severance of Ireland from the United Kingdom, with a view to erect it into an independent power, that would be a levying of war within the meaning of this statute. But the language of the authorities to which I have already referred illustrate what I have just now told you. They say, " insurrections and risings for the purpose of effecting by force and numbers, however ill arranged, provided, or organized, any innovations of a public nature, in which the party had no particular interest or concern, have been deemed instances of the actual levy ing of war." It is essential to the making out of the charge that there must be an insurrection—that there must be force used in the accomplishm e nt of it, an d th a t the object ofit be general in its character. These are all the observations which I have thought it incumbent on me to make for your government or direction; and should any difficulty arise in any of your minds, I will be at all times most anxious to render you such assist ance as you may require. But I believe I have now pointed your attention to the specialities in the law of high treason which perhaps before were not familiar to you, and to which it will be necessary for you to give your particular attention. I believe the Crown are pre pared to lay the indictments before you, and you will now proceed to their immediate consideration. The Foreman—My Lord, some of the grand jury wish to understand if it is necessary that every overt act should be proved by two witnesses. The CHIEF JUSTICE—It will be sufficient if any one overt act be proved by two witnesses, or one overt act by one witness and another overt act by a second witness. The grand jury then (half-past twelve o'clock) re tired to their apartment to take the various bills of in dictment sent up before them into their consideration. Mr. Hodges, the Government reporter, was the first witness who was examined by the grand jury. His examination lasted nearly two hours, so that, considering the number of witnesses who are to be brought before the grand jury, it is unlikely that they will find a bill to-day. It is expected that they will not do so till to morrow. The town is very quiet; there is no excitement. The bills of indictment against Mr. O'Brien, Mr. M‘Manus, and some peasants are for high treason; those against Mr. Meagher, Mr. Leyne, and Mr. O'Donohue are, it is understood, for treasonable practices; and as the five days' notice of trial, required in a case of treason, is not necessary in these cases, it is probable they will be proceeded with before that of Mr. O'Brien. Frvg o'cLocx, P.M.—At five o'clock, P.M., the grand jury returned to their box, when they were told that they should retire again to their room till the judges re sumed their seats upon the bench. They withdrew ac cordingly. Their Lordships in a few minutes took their seats, and the grand jury were recalled from their room. TheiForetnan handed down to the Clerk of the Crown true bills for high treason against William Smith O'Brien, T. B. M'Manus, James Orchard, Denis Tyne, and Patrick O'Donnell. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, addressing the Court, said that the present would be the most convenient time to have the prisoners arraigned, in order that counsel might be assigned and copies of the indictment forwarded to them . The COURT assented to this being done. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he would trouble the jury with another bill against Mr. Meagher, and pro bably they would be able to consider it that evening. The Foreman replied that the:jury were not disposed to enter into consideration of another bill at that ad vancedess JUSTICE onthe sfollowingai Said that o r mgnrienagt. deal of the ma hour of the day, and w ou ld pre f er proceed i ng with the bus in ess T tt h e e r C w iTE w hi c h would be b roug h t b efore the grand jury was common to both cases. i The Foreman asked if it would be necessary to exa mine again all the witneSiei that had been before them in the other case The CHIEF JUSTICE replied that this was entirely in the discretioa of the jury. The bills against Mr. Meagher were then handed up to the Grand Jury to be considered by them. At twenty minutes :after fiye o'clock the prisoners were arraigned, when the Chief Justice intimated to them that a bill for high treason had been found against them, and each of them was entitled to a copy of the indictment. He desired to know if' they wished to get a copy ? The prisoners replied that they wished copies of the indictment, which were accordingly furnished to them. Mr. POTTER asked if the Attorney -General intended to furnish the prisoners with any other documents ? The ATTORNEY - GENERAL replied in the negative. Mr. PORTER applied to the Court to assign as counsel for Mr. O'Brien, Mr. James Whiteside, Q.C., and Mr. Francis Fit a4erald. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL assented to this arrange ment of counsel.. Mr. POTTER then said that Mr. MiManus had not yet employed an agent, and was therefore unprepared to se lect counsel. The COURT assigned Mr. Potter as Mr. M'Manus's agent, and informed him that he might inform the Clerk of the Crown whom he desired for his counsel any time before he pleaded. Mr. LANE (solicitor) said he had to apply on behalf of three prisoners, who were his clients, namely, James Or chard, Patrick O'Donnell, and Denis Thynne, for a copy Of the panel. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated that the High Sheriff htd not yet returned the panel, and that neither of the parties, the Crown, or the prisoners, had yet been fur nished with a copy. Mr. LANE observed that the panel had been returned by the Sheriff, and was now in the office of the Clerk of the Crown. The Arr °I I NRY-GENERAL said he was not aware of that fact before, and with respect to the application, he could only say, that he did not wish to establish any pre cedent by g i ving a copy of the panel to the prisoners, as they were not entitled to it as a right. Mr. LANE, -~I ask it as a favour, and not as a right. The — RIEF JUsTicE—You have admitted that you are not of right entitled to a copy of the panel, and as a matter of favcur it cannot be granted unless with the consent of th e Attorney- G enera l. I t i s to h i m there fore, and not to the Court, that your application ought to be made. The Court was then adjourned to the following day (Friday) at eleven o'clock. The trial of Smith O'Brien, which will take precedence of the other State trials, will not take place sooner than Thursday next, as may be derived from the foregoing proceedings. The grand jury will be required to attend this day, to investigate other bills which will be sent before them. THE INDICTMENT. The jurors of our Lady the Queen of the first count charge William Smith O'Brien, Terence B. M'Manus, James Oribard Riehard O'Donnell, and Denis Thynue, being subjects of our said Lady the Queen, with having, on the 7th d ay o f J u ly, and on divers other days, between that day and the 30th of the same month, in the parish of Ballingarry, levied war against our said Lady the Queen ; obstructed constables in tho execu tion of their duty ; attacked a certain dwelling house at the common of Boulagh, and then and there by force of arms traitorously attempted to subvert the Government. The second count charges the same parties with having traitorously levied war against our Lady the Queen at Nlullinahone. The third count charges the saute parties with having erected a barri cade at Killenaule in order to obstruct the marching of the troops. The fourth count charges the same parties with a further attempt to levy war against the Queen at Ballinga rry. The fifth count charges the same parties with having subsequently appeared in arms, at Ballin garry, on the 29th of July, with a design to subvert and destroy the constitution of the realm. The sixth and last count is a general one, and embraces all the overt acts set out in the five former counts. It is confidently stated, says:the Dublin herald of last evening that at the next commission in Green-street Mr. Duffey will be tried, but whether on the indictment already found against him fur felony or on a new one for treason does not appear to be determined. It is said that in either case the Crown, exercising a power Con firmed by statute, will try hint by a jury not of the city, but of the county of Dublin, Mr. O'Dogherty will also be put on his trial a third time, and also before a county -jury...-his. not generally known that a statute peculiar to this country enables the prosecutor, in any case in which an offence is committed in a county of a city, to have the offender tried by a jury of the next adjoining county. The Crown intend to exercis, , this power in the case of these gentlemen, either for the purpose of avoiding the question as to the disqualification of the burgesses raised on the writ of error in the case of John Martin, or from a belief that they will more readily obtain - a conviction from a county jury. Mr. Henn, Q.C., has finally re solved on not acting on either side in the approaching prosecutions. Mr. Henn had accepted a retainer from Mr. S. O'Brien. The Attorney-General, however, thought proper to insist on his services for the Crown. The result is that the Learned Gentleman will not ap pear on the trial either for the prisoner or the Crown. The following were proclaimed as outlaws in the last number of the Hue and Cry :—The first is named William Mitchell, aged 22 years. The second is Dr. Antisell, aged 33 years.

DONCASTER BOROUGH POLICE. TOWN HALL, Saturday. (Before THOMAS WALKER, CHARLES JACKSON, and EDW. SCUOLFIELD, ESQRS.) GAMBLING HOUSE.—Juhn James Wells, Thomas Howell, William Garlell„lohn Thompson, Charles C'hap man, Joseph Pring, and John Durdon, were brought up in custody of the police, by virtue of a warrant issued under the provisions of the Bth and 9th Vict., c. 109. Mr. Smith conducted the case for the prosecution ; and Mr. Lewis, of London, appeared for the defendants. Mr. Smith said, ho appeared to support an informa tion under the 3d section of the Bth and 9th Vict., c. 109, whereby it was enacted that it should be lawful for any justice of the peace upon complaint made before him, that there was reason to suspect any hens° to be used as a common gaming -house, to give authority by warrant under his hand to any constable to enter with such as sistants as might be found necessary into such house, and to use force for making such entry, whether by breaking open doors or otherwise, and to arrest all persons found therein who should be dealt with according to law. By the Bth section it was also provided, that where any instruments of gaming should be found in any house suspected to be used as a common gaming house, and entered under a warrant issued by virtue of the provisions of that Act, it should be evidence until the contrary was proved that such house was a common gaming house and that the per sons found in the room or place where:such instruments of gaming should be found were playing therein, although no play was actually going on in the presence of the constable entering the same. The justices might impose a penalty not exceeding 100/., or might commit the de fendants to the House of Correction for any term not exceeding six calendar months. It would be proved that the house i❑ question was a common gaming house —that it was called the Berkeley Club Rooms—and that gambling, in all its branches, was carried on therein to a most enormous extent. John Pigott proved that he was a constable for the borough of Doncaster, and knew the house in High street, called the Berkeley Club-rooms. Witness was there last night [about eight o'clock, and observed that gambling was going on ; the parties were playing for money. Witness described the games and the gaming instruments which were used ; could not swear that any of the defendants were in the rooms at eight o'clock, except the defendant Durdon. Witness can identify him positively. He had the management of a gaming table, and turned the ball. Witness was in the room again about twelve o'clock, with the magistrates, and assisted to make the seizure. As soon as the magistrates entered the room a rush was made at the gaming tables. Witness identified four of the defendants as having been then present, but cannot say what part they were taking in the game; Durdon was one of the four. He was in the same place at twelve o'clock as witness had pre viously seen him at eight o'clock; heaps of money being upon the tables. Witness gathered up one heap and gave it to Mr. Etches, the superintendent. Witness also brought away a quantity of gaming instruments, which he now produced. George Sunderland proved that he was one of the po lice for the borough of Doncaster. Witness was with the magistrates when they entered the Berkeley Club Rooms, and apprehended the defendants. Witness also brought away a quantity of gaming instruments which he now produced. Williamson Etches proved that he was the superin tendent of police for the borough of Doncaster, and was also with the magistrates when they made the seizure at the Berkeley Club Rooms. Witness gathered up a quantity of money from the tables, and also received some money from the witness Pigott. Witness now produced the money. It is in notes, silver, and gold, and amounted to upwards of 601. This closed the case for the prosecution. Mr. Lewis then addressed the bench on behalf of the defendants, contending that no case had been made out against any of them, except perhaps against Durdon. It had not been proved that the others were taking part in the business of the tables. For anything which appeared to the contrary they might have been innocent specta tors. As such they were certainly liable to be arrested, but could not be convicted under the Act of Parliament, unless it were shown that they were taking part in the management or conduct of the game. Besides it had not been proved that there was any gaming at all going on when the magistrates entered. Mr. Smith, on the other hand, contended that all the defendants might be convicted. The Act of Parliament expressly provided that it should not be necessary to prove that any play wag going on in the presence of the magistrates. The mere fact that gaming instruments were found was made evidence that the house was a gaming house, and the circumstances that the defen dants were all present in the same room with the gam ing instruments was sufficient to constitute them par ticeps criminis. The magistrates then retired for consultation. On their return, Mr. WALKER said, that the Bench had taken the matter into serious consideration, and al though they might very properly convict all the defen dants, yet, as this was the first case which had come before them, they hoped the ends of justice might be answered by the conviction only of the defendant Dur don. Ile was proved to have had the management of the game, and the Bench therefore imposed upon him the penalty of 1002 In default of payment he would be committed to the House of Correction at Wakefield, for the term of six calendar months. The BENCH took that opportunity of saying that they had come to the determination to put down the gambling which, at Doncaster Races, had become so excessive and so notorious. Notwithstanding the advertisements which were annually inserted ia the Doncaster news papers, stating that sty h illegal pract'ces would be punished, persons like the defendants, in defiance of all law, and in opposition to all authority, carried on a system of organised plunder, which if the magistrates did not endeavour to suppress they would not be dis charging their duty. The fine of 100/. was immediately paid, and the de fendants were discharged.—Doncaster Chronicle. THE CHEVALIER JOHN MARTIN. Those who have visited the Polytechnic Institution of this town, and who have devoted a critical and well-matured judgment to the pictorial embellish ments of this magnificent exhibition, must have been charmed with the numerous works ofart which decorate the various roms set apart for this purpose, and which so proudly mark the progress of painting in this country ; amongst which must have been ad mired, as gems of the first order, those by the cele brated Chevalier John Martin, a native of our own locality, and whose well-earned fame, will, in due time, be justly appreciated, and claimed by his native county, as a portion of the laurels which wreath the history of Northumberland. And it is because we should love, to see this laudable progression of the fine arts fostered and promoted by all the natural and legitimate stimulants on which they subsist, and without which they languish, that we apologize for giving our readers - the following extract from a me tropolitan contemporary, in the apposition of whose strictures, both on the score of justice and reproach, we must say we most heartily concur : We have had the gratification, in common with many other lovers of the fine arts, of viewing a splendid collection of paintings, in oil and water colours, by the well-known and highly-esteemed Chevalier John Martin. That gentleman has lately removed from .Alsop-ter race, New-road, where he has resided for nearly thirty years, to Lindsey House, a spacious mansion in Chel sea, on the banks of the Thames, with a splendid view up and down that river. This dwelling has been fitted up with great taste, and its walls are decorated with many of the paintings which have obtained for Martin a reputation which the world ' will not willingly let die.' There we saw the original of The Deluge, one of the most effective of modern compositions, with its marvellous combinations of colour and composition, its wonderful contrasts of light and shade. There is the fall of Nine veh—which (painted as it is on Titian's principle of the light from within) looked fresher and brighter than it did when we first saw it years ago. There we saw three of the paintings illustrative of early Scriptural story — The Prayer in Paradise; Eve tempting Adam with the Forbidden Fruit, and Our First Parent's Discovery that they were Naked. There, too, hangs that striking epi sode at the Coronation of Queen Victoria, when the aged Peer, Lord Rulle, hastening to pay homage to his Sovereign, stumbled almost at her feet, and the Crowned 'Lady of the Isle' yielded to her natural impulse of the courteusness, and hastened to raise him with her own hand. Nor, master as he is of Space, and wonderful as he combines minuteness of detail with breadth of execution—so that his historical paintings will bear close examination as well as that more distant view which brings out the illimitable perspective of his architectural effects—has Martin confined himself to these, in which, as by common consent, it is admitted that he stands peculiar and alone. The scenes from Paradise, which we have just named, show him to be a landscape painter of such merit and truth, that if he had confined his efforts to this department, he could not have failed to have been known in it as superior to the other. There is the picture, a landscape which obtained the Heywood gold medal at Manchester, and there we saw numerous water-colour paintings representing the beautiful and picturesque scenery with which this country a b ou nds—from the ai windings of the silver Wye to the numerous and fair views along the b a nks of the Thames. In all_ i o n f them,theser we perceive a strong feeling for nature , a too, we observe the effective manner i n which,d with h s extraordinary management of light and shade, he has brought scenes palpably before U 5, bathed in a beauty which the poetry of painting can alone exhibit. But while gratified with the sight of those pictures, we could not reject the thought that the best works of such an arti s t should not be seen in his own dwelling. We lament that, with all the conventional talking and writing about art in the present day, so little has been actually done to increase it and its profession. Here, for example, is Martin, of imagination all compact' beyond any painter of our day and country. lie has had compliments, presents, honour, from the Emperor of Russia, the Kings of Prussia and Belgium, the late Charles X., Louis Philippe, and members of the Napoleon family; but the royalty of Britain has appeared unconscious of his existence. Not one of his paintings hangs in the N at i onal Gallery; nor though the world at large has recognised his merits, his high originality, has he yet received the doubtful honour of being allowed to put }Ll\. after his name. It is j us t the the same with L oug h, whose Shake eu realisations so admirably illustrat e t h e work of our greatest poet. A. private individual (Sir M. W. Ridley) has employed him to produce these, and the patronage conf erre d on hi m on behalf o f th e nat i on is actually nothing! The first of living sculptors has not received even one com mission to execute a statue for the new House of Par liament. Like Martin, too hehas not been admitt e d t o • the Academy. In a right state cf thin gs suc h men would have b een invite, pressed to become Academi cians, bestowing honour upon, rather than deriyo reputa tion from, the Academy. But inferior minds Cllano readily forgive surpas s i ng merit, which makes their own mediocrity 1 6, 8 more flagrant and apparent." —Newcastle Journal, Sept.
