Sir,—On behalf of tte Directors of the Midland Railway Com pany, I ant requested to acknowledge the receipt of an Address from a number of Shareholders resident in Liverpool and the neighbour hood which you have transmitted to them. The Directors would have been content merely to acknowledge the receipt of the Address, had it not contained an imputation upon them, which they cannot pass over in silence. .The Shareholders commence their address by ascribing the depression' of their pro perty to " the want of public confidence in the integrity of the ma nagement." The Directors, therefore, desire that you will immedi ately furnish them with a list of the specific charges involved in this statement, in order that they may convene a Special Meeting of the Company, and have the opportunity of refuting the accusation thus brought against the integrity of a body of gentlemen who feel that they stand as high in the estimation of the public at large as the in dividuals who have appended their names to this calumnious docu ment, which cornea with a peculiarly bad grace from a body of Share holders who, prior to the appointment of the present Directors, were only receiving a two-and-a•lialf per cent. dividend. Since that time the dividends have been increased to six and seven per cent. In the meantime I may be allowed to offer to you, as one of the Shareholders who have signed the address, a few remarks upon the several suggestions contained in it. 1. You cad wpon the Directors to close the capital account. No person is more fully aware than yourself that the shareholders have had the power of passing a vote to that effect at any half-yearly meeting. Bat supposing the development of a new traffic, producing a revence of 20,0001. or 30,000/: per annum, should require an out lay of 60,000/.,. how absurd it would be to say that such outlay ought GUILDHALL, OCTOBER 25, 1848. FEE COMMITTEE for LETTING the CITY'S LANDS will MEET at 'GUILDHALL on WEDNESDAY, the 15th day of November next, at One o'clock precisely, to receive TENDERS for LETTING on LEASE, for twenty-one years from Christmas next, a House, No.B, on the east side of New Broad-street ; a Ho ise, No. 14, on the north side of Broad-street-buildings ; a House, No. 28, on the south side of Broad-street-buildings ; and a House, No. 38, on the south aide of Upper Thames-street. Also, to receive TENDERS for LETTING on LEASE, for nineteen years (less thiee days), from Christmas next, a House, No. 82, on the south side of Chiswell-street ; and also a House, No. 3, os the east side of Windmill-street, near Finsbury-square. Further particulars may be obtained, and plans seen, by applying at the Mee of Works, Guildhall. THOMAS SAUNDERS, Comptroller. IRELAND. proper time. counsel submitted that these were essen tial preliminaries, and that as they had not been com plied with, the bill of indictment had been found by a grand jury who had no jurisdiction. If the Court held that those preliminaries were not essential or could be dispensed with, the effect would be to set aside the pro visions of the litw, which were intended as a safeguard against oppression. The statute enacted that if the bill of indictment was preferred in the county next adjoining to that in which the offence was committed, those pre liminaries should be complied with; and as they had not been attended to in this case, counsel submitted that the indictment should be quashed.- There was another point which he wished to mention to the Court. His Learned Friend, Mr. Butt, had been looking through the recog nisance which was entered into in this case, and it ap peared it was only entered into on the 26th of October, the very day on which the indictment was sent up to the grand jury. Now the Act required that the recognizance should be entered into before the indictment was sent up, in order to provide for the additional costs consequent uncan the change of venue. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then proceeded to reply. At the suggestion of the Court, he would not say any thing in reference to the recognizance, it being quite unnecessary to do so ; but with regard to what had been urged respecting the notice—namely, that ten days' notice should have been given to the prisoner and the witnesses, he submitted that the object of the section was - ft) enable the prosecutor to take the necessary pro ceedings to enforce the attendance of witnesses. And their Lordships were aware that an innictment might be found without any informations at all, without any re cognizance, or without any— Mr. Justice CRAIVIPTON—The whole question, Mr. Attorney-General, resolves itself into this—what is the construction of the 6th section of the statute ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL proceeded to say that the previous bill which had been found against Mr. Duty having been quashed, the case now stood as if there had been no bill found until the•present Commis sion ; and that being the case, it appeared to him that under the 3d section he had a perfect right to present the bill to either grand jury, subject, however, to this condition—that if he presented it to the county jury instead of the city, a recognizance should be entered into for the purpose stated in the statute. He might, therefore, assume, for the present that the bill had been rightly found; and he would contend that the bill having been previously found in a limited jurisdiction, it was competent to the Court to order a transfer of that bill from one jurisdiction to another, or to direct a transfer of the,custody from one sheriff to another for the pur pose of trial. Certainly, it did not appear to him that it was necessary to have one Commission sitting i❑ the city and another in the county at the same time; and he submitted that the fourth section applied to a case like the present, where he wanted to transfer the indictment from one jury to another. Mr. Justice TORRENS—Yes, but would not a witness feel aggrieved by having the jurisdiction changed with out due notice being given him? ATTORNEY-GENERAL—OhI in that ease, my Lord, I will humbly ask to have the Commission adjourned for a fortnight. SPORTING INTELLIdeE: NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING. SATURDAY. A meetinc , which, for the unfavourable state of the weather, and the bad state of the ground, would have been, in all respects, one of the best ever known at New market, concluded with a capital day's sport on Saturday last. Although the card contained eleven races, the match between Woodcraft and the Concertina colt having been made au hour or two before the first race, they did not commence until ten minutes before 1 o'clock. This gave time for some betting on the Derby, an event which has been strangely neglected of late, and that the opportunity was not lost the following summary of the transactions will prove-5,000 to 1,000 agst The Flying Dutchman-3,000 to 400 and 3,500 to 500 agst Tadmor —1,200 to 100 agst Honeycomb-1,000 to 50 agst Os terley-1,000 to 50 agst Uriel-1,000 to 25 agst Old Dan Tucker-5,000 to 100 each, in one bet, agst Strongbow —l,OOO to 20 agst Caststeel colt-4,000 to 60 each agst Glenalvon, Garrick, and Bernadotte-750 to 50 agst Uriel and Strongbow-1,000 even on the field agst Fly ing Dutchman, Tadmor, Honeycomb, Osterley, Uriel, and Strongbow—and 1,000 to 15 agst Escalade winning the Derby and Oaks: The racing commenced with a - Match, 10D.

For though I don't profess to bo A poet of the first degree, I think I've got sufficient tact To tell the public how you act; And here a compliment is due, • Namely, that all I say is true. You, Messrs. MOSES I would choose To occupy my humble muse ; • Ngr could I think of doing less, On looking at your. WINTER DRESS. 'The last new OvereCiat I bought Is good in cloth, and firmly wrought ; And then the style which it "discloses, Does credit to yea Messrs. MOSES. • • And this applies to all the rest, The Coat, the Trowsers, and the Vest. I said the instant that I bought 'em, They're just the very thing fo , Autumn, And really, Messrs. MOSES, that's My notion of your " WINTER HATS. • • And thaug,h I'm not a man that flatters, I do pronounce you first-rats Hatters. Your Hats are firm, though light—if not, I certainly doirt know what's what. And if not stylish and elastic, " My lines have seething Hudibraistie._ • These, - Messrs: MOSES. are my views, With referencelo your BOOTS AND SHOES. They're good in style, and make, and leather, And, Sirs, I like them altogether I batight fi pair just six mouths back, Which never yet have shown a crack. My lady says the same of hers, And praises up your WINTER FURS. • She bids me say she never wore A better Mantle, Muff, or Boa. My lady often tells me, Sirs, . MOSES and SON'S are famous Furs. Nor do our notions disagree With reference to your • • HOSIERY. The quality of such a stock • Is such as' nobody can mock. I wish I'd space to call attention More fully to the goods I mention. I'm much surprised at what is paid For these and all the goods in trade. Cheapness and quality I find At your Establishment combined. And while this principle discloses, be In the present eventful state of Ireland, the Committee of the Irish Society of London would call the attention of the public to the beneficial results of the Society's labours in that country, and would earnestly appeal for increased support, to carry out the objects which it has in view ; and while they by no means undervalue the efforts which are being made, whether by legislation or by private enterprise, to improve the temporal condition of Ireland, the Committee feel convinced, from much ex . perienee, that all thaxemedies proposed must prove unavailing, un less, at the same time, measures are taken to elevate the moral character of the Irish peasantry by means of religious instruction. The Irish Society labours in themative districts, where upwards of 3,000,000 of the population speak the Irish language. . There are now 800 teachers connected. with it, who instruct the native Irish in reading the Word of God. Since the commencement 300,000 individuals, chiefly adults, haie thiis been taught to read the • Scriptures. many of whom embraced the Protestant faith. One hundred and eight Scripture readdrs are employed. who _read the Irish.Bibles.in the cabbie, or to groups of. the peasantry at work lb thair fields; or by the 'mai aide. ' ' Se'Ven liish-siaeaking clergytnen are incOnnexion with the Society - ' Who read the Liturgy, and preach the Gospel In the:native language: Ten congregations of converts have 'been, raised up, or are •now Ministered to through the instrumentality of the Society. TWo of these are in the' county of Galway, two in 'the county of Cork, and six in Kerry.' Many Roman Catholics, not included In those distinct .congrega tions, have been brought, through the blessing of Almighty God upon the Society's labenrs, to renounce the errors of Rome, and are now incorporated with old Protestant congregations. . I Some groups of converts who have been instructed by the Society are asking for Irish clergymen to be located amongst them. ' Tn various places crowds of Roman Catholics attend Protestant churches and school-houses, where an Irish-speaking clergyman has been announced to preach. One clergyman states : " In the Cathedral of L— I preached on Wednesday evening. The church was filled.• the Roman Catholics standing up to the ..readlitg-deak,. and outside the doors. At D—, on Sunday night, there, had we a place large enough, we might have had many hun dreds.of Romaiaists4 , 'as it was, we had a goodly number, and those wbe Were obliged to stand outside the window occasionally requested that would speak up, so as they might hear." linother writes : " I .had. a most interesting tour through the C— Irish districts. I preached 20 sermons, in Irish, to over 2,000 in all. I may count that 1,000. were converts, 500 Romanists, and 500 old Protestants. One pool man, who was not hearing me. heard so much about the sermon from others, thathe said he would come to hear the next • sermon, if. the. priest would roast him In the fire for IL' Many a poor creature from the heart said, ' 0, when will yon come again sit ? Alas !. that we hav'nt an Irish ministry.' " Such are some of the results of the Society's proceedings ; but the committee would allude to one more, of considerable importance at the present time, and that is, that wherever the native Irish have been instructed by the, Society, they have become loyal subjects of our Queen, and abstain from all connexion with the treasonable practices and illegal associations which are so hostile to the peace and prosperity of the kingdom. . • The Committee have-made diligent inquiries upon this subj let, and the'repliea to their Inquiries have been highly satisfactory. The following are extracts from one letter out of upwards of tweaty of the same chttracterreceived by the Committee:— " I affirm. it as a fact that could not be contradicted, that out of - the thimsands in Ireland connected with the Irish Society, that none of them are connected with klegai associations, or with that dan gerous_ agitation now so 'formidable, and hostile to Ireland's ' best interests!: Oulteathers and pupils are almost entirely friendly - to British connexion -- ; - they have felt Rome's spiritual tyranny, and they ;believe, if the union 'with. Great 'Britain . were dissolved, to be taken out of income. 2. You call upon the Directors to examine and pay all outstanding amounts of the solicitors:These accounts are now undergoing a strict examination, and as soon as the solicitors are satisfied to accept the amount the Directors think due to them, their bills will be paid. But surely this is a matter which must be left to the discretion of the Directors; had-they given way to the pressure of the Pro prietors when they were urged to settle the 'demands of the contrac tors, they might have saeriflced a - very large sum for the sake of an Immediate settlement. They succeeded in making great reductions, and so much was saved to the Company.' The Claims 'of- the con tractors amounted to 89,C771., and were finally liquidated for TIM SCOTTISH SABBATARIANS LOOKING TWO WAYS FOR SUNDAY. (From the Liverpool Mercury). The stoppage in transitu of the Duchess of Suther land by the Scottish 'Central Railway Company is a heavy ,blow and sore discouragement to the Agnewites, who would make Sunday a dies non on railways. Our esteemed contemporary, the Scots man, exhibits a very natural and laudable zeal to rescue' the Land' of Cakes from the imputation.of being thy; Land of Cant, and loudly, as well as justly, protests 'against the English press confounding , the Scottish nation with " a miserable mi nor ity 91 higots, " rendered somewhat- pestilent by their secret organization." For our own humble part, not having been guilty of any such mistake, we have no amends to make. But as we are solicitous, to the extent of our ability, to aid in dispelling the delusion wherever is may exist, we have much pleasure in extending the publicity of the following circular, now in course of private distribution among ," safe`hands," and dragged by our Scottish contem porary into the light it shunned. [Here follows the circular inserted in The Sun of Saturday, signed by Campbell and Barbour). How well do the writers of this appeal know their men ! . What an instructive perception they have of the influences and motives to which Sabbatarians are amenable! " Eligible investment." Lose no time. Railway stock is very low, and the Scottish Sabbath is very, precious. Let not the opportunity slip - of laying up treasures on earth, and treasures in heaven. Stand by " the light of God's truth," and secure " a guaranteed dividend of seven per cent." Companies are combining to raise profits. Now or never let the saints combine to purchase shares, if they would at one and the same time advance their private fortunes and ,God's glory. Make an effort. Christianity is at stake, and the state of the share market " offers con siderable inducement!" The sincerity of these men is a very large postulate. How is it possible for the single eye to confound magnitudes so immeasurably disproportionate as earth or heaven, or to equalize the importance of interests so utterly dissimilar as the saving of souls and the securing of dividends ? One of this sect of formalists and materialists in reli gion, Mr. Campbell, of Tillichewan, a member of the town council of Glasgow, declared at that council board, that for a son or daughter to travel on a Sunday, to sooth a dying parent's pillow, was "an iniquity to be forcibly prevented here and fearfully punished hereafter." Another of the saintly crew, Mr. Makgill Crichton, has made it a frequent public boast at Sabbatarian gatherings, that "he would deem it a heinous sin to travel on Sunday to be present in the dying moments of his dearest child!" These sentiments have been adopted by many and disclaimed by none of the Agnewite cabal. Yet their hatred of a cardinal sin is, of itself insufficient to prompt them to active efforts for its prevention: their zeal in " the Sabbath cause" requires the addi tional stimulus of a " guaranteed dividend of seven per cent." This Sabbatarian agitation is of the earth most earthy. It is repulsive to every sentiment of genuine humanity. The honest enthusiasm even of .the wildest fanaticism will excite some spark of sympa thetic emotion. Into the very benediction of the daggers on the eve of St. Bartholomew's slaughter the genius of a Meyerbeer infuses a feeling of the sub lime : " But this poor farce has neither truth, nor art, To please the farcy'or to touch the heart. Dark but not awful, dismal but yet mean, With anxious bustle moves the cumbrous scene, Presents no objects tender or profound, But spreads its cold unmeaning gloom around." 17,7231. lis. 7d.

'They were orderly in their conduct, and deeply attentive to the Word of God. I was especially pleased with the demeanour of two indivi duals, and not a little gratified at afterwards hearin'T their story.

It is ackntwledged by all parties that something must be done for Ireland ; and withoat limiting the measures which may be devised by the benev•lent, the Committee of the Irish Society of London would respectfully saggest that regions instrue,.iou should have a prominent place amongst them. It has succeeded in the Protestant districts of the north of Ireland, which are as free from clime; disloyalty, and pauperism as any parts of England, and where industry and order flourish to a remarkable degree.. It has succeeded, ander the blessing of the Most High, in those native districts and localities where the inhabitants have been ' - instructed by the teachers of the Irish Society, in which crime, sedi tion, and animosity have given place tope.:re, to loyalty, and - goodwill. And why should it not succeed upon a greatly extended scale ? It is a measure which the Committee believe God will honour—that God will surely bless. There is a prom . se which they would desire to remember; and in humble reliance upon which they carry on the work committed to their charge My w0rd...... shall not return unto me void; but it sha.`i accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent It." . . . .

Toucallfora reduction of the salaries of our engineers. We have only one engineer employed upon the lines, and, considering the abilities of that gentleman, the Directors do not think him over paid.. • 4. You require that stations Shall 'not 14 ertlaraa4.'- -Shottld , traffi' increase, how is it to be conducted without increased accommoda tion? If the Shareholders think the Directors incompetent to decide neon matters of thiS kind, they hal much , better remove them, and appoint others in whom they have greater confidence. 3. The Directors are called upon to enter into no further contracts. it must have escaped your recollection that at the last half-yearly meeting I gave an assurance that the Directors did not intend to engage in any further contracts. • 6. You allude to traffic which you do not consider remunerative to the Company. The Directors are entitled to ask you to be more explicit, and to state specifically what traffic is meant. 7. Tou think the number of trains ought to, be reduced. Tbls is a , question which must be left to the judgment of the Directors ; for nothing can be more difficult than to determine, from time to time, what trains ought to be run. I consider it would be an unwise and, impolitic measure to take off the express train, which you suggest should be done. )3: The alteration you propose in the mode of appointing Directors would require a new Act of Parliament. 9. You ask the Directors to purchase all stores by public contract. I have no doubt you aro aware that this is generally done, bat it not unfrequently happens that the Directors can purchase articles In the market much below the contract price, and when they can do so they often avail themselves of the opportunity. I have now answered or commented upon every point of the ad dress, except that which relates to the depreciation of the value of shares, with which the Directors feel that they have little or nothing to do. Their duty is to obtain all the traffic they can, and to pay the Shareholders good dividends. The address you have sent is signed by seventy Shareholders, this is a small proportion of the en'ire number, which .exceeds 8,600. You are a holder of capital stock in the company to the amount of 3501:, and you describe yourself in the address as a broker. Front Your experience in that business, I have no doubt you are well aale to inform the public how the old railway stock of this company has become so much depreciated. In my position as Chairman of several railway companies, I have received numerous complaining letters, all, I am bound to say, crouched in a courteous and respectful manner ; and I have answered them by assuring the parties of the soundness and stability of the concerns over which I preside. The acknowledgments I have re ceived in reply have been generally satisfactory; many of the parties stating that they were holders of stock in a variety of foreign and other new lines, and that they were compelled to sell the stock of aid lines to pay for the new. When the supply exceeds the demand, and when a regular combination exists to depress railway property, I believe any course which Directors may pursue will be of little avail. Yet, after all, the amount of stock transferred in the com panies ever which I preside has been less than usual, which shows that many of the quotations of sales are merely nominal. I have no- fear of not seeing railway prOperty again placed in a better position in the market, though not at the extravagant price it has heretofore arrived at, and then its proper and true value will be maintained in a manner that will be more satis factory to all parties. Consols have been at 47, they are now at 84IA , and have been at 100. If you or your friends can, by any effort, advance them to 92 or 93, I have no doubt you will see a great advance in railway property. The Bank Stock has paid 10 per cent., and is now only paying seven, and the price has fallen con siderably ; but no one ever doubted the integrity of the management of the Bank. The surprise to me is, that in the excitements and commotions which havo prevailed, railway traffic has been so well supported. Even the present amount of traffic justifies the anticipa tion that the rate of dividends will not undergo any material dimi nation ; and this remark applies to all the lines over which I have the honour to preside. I wish I could call the serious and grave attention of the chairman of the London Stock Exchange to a pub lication whick is issued weekly, professing to be under the sanction of that body. lam aware that the statements which appear in that paper are stated not to be published under the authority of the Stock Exchange ; but I cannot close my eyes to the effect that they pro, duce on the mind of the public, who naturally consider that they have that sanction. If these statements were correct and true, no' person would have a right • to complain —but when they are almost la every instance incorrect, and their general ten dency is to depreciate railway property, it would be well that the Stock Exchange should disavow a publication which is calculated to do so much mischief. I must, in con clusion, request that you will call the Requisitionists together, and that there may be no delay in sending a list of the charges im pugning the integrity of the Directors, who are anxious to meet and repel the calumnious imputations that have been made against them. Nothing but a sense of duty to the large body of Share holders who have hitherto given their confidence induces the Di rectors ti retain their seat az the board; and as soon as that con fidence is withdrawn they will most readily and gladly resign their trust into ether hands by whom the affairs of the Company may be more ably conducted, I perhaps might observe, before I conclude my letter, without pledging myself to the-etatement, but merely gis:ng It as my own individual opinion, that X believe another 51. call upon the 50/. Shares, with the arrears of calls now owing, complete all the works in course of construction, and the reins wing 251, per Share will remain applicable to the liquidation of the , e,bt. The liabilities of the Company are under the consideration of the Directors; in order to enable them to lay a statement before the Proprietors, which it is anticipated will be done within a very early period. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, GEORGE HUDSON. To J.

C. G. DUFFY. DUBLIN, FRlDAY.—Judges Crampton and Torrens took their seats in the Commission Court this morning at the usual hour. Shortly after eleven o'clock the county grand jury handed down their finding on the bill sent before them against Charles. Gavin Duffy. It was signed by the foreman " A true bill for self and fellows." ARRAIGNMENT OF MR. DUFFY, A few minutes before onv o'clock Mr. Duffy was brought into the dock and placed at the bar. He looked rather pate and thoughtful, and seemed to have suffered a good deal from his protracted imprisonment. On look ing round the court be recognised several friends and bowed cheerfully to them. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL' said that in this case against Mr. Charles Gavin Duffy, the prisoner, a bill was found at::the last commission by the grand jury, which he now moved should be quashed. Ou that occasion a bill was preferred under an Act of Parliament of the then session, charging Mr, Duffy with certain felonious compassings, and re. lying upon several publications in a newspaper, of which he was the proprietor. An application. was made at that commission on the part of the Crown, founded ,on the affidavit; for the purpose of abandoning further proceed , ing upon that bill, hecause subsequent to the finding of the bill a letter in the handwriting` of Mr. Duffy, was found in the pcissession of Mr. Smith O'Brien, which was at the time characterised as being of a very treason able description; and it was thought advisable to have a new bill prepared introducing into it this letter. At the present commission a bill had been found against Mr. Duffy, by the county grand jury, for the same matters contained in the formter bill, with-the addition of this letter, and also a manuscript article, not included in the former And he would : now very shortly state the grounds .upon which-- this charge had been made. At the last commission a gen , tleman named Martin was tried for a similar offence be fore a city jury—a challenge was put in to an-individual juror on the . ground that he was a householder and inha; bitant of the city of Dublin. He (the Attorney Generals did not conceive that challenge was well founded. It was founded on an old charter of the corporation of Dublin, giving to them the goods of persons convicted of felony, and, therefore, that every inhabitant and householder, who would be liable to the Pay ment of borough rate, was, in point of fact, inte rested in the conviction of felons.. He had demurred to that challenge, and the judges agreed with his argument and allowed the demurrer. However, very able and eminent Counsel for the prisoner had given a certificate that the judgment allowing the demurrer is one that in their opinion would be reversed by a writ of error. Acting upon that he (the Attorney-General) had felt it his duty to allow the writ of error in that parti cular case, which now stood for argument in the Court of Queen's Bench. Judge CRAMPTON—I dare say the objection that will be made is that you should enter a nolle prosequi. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said it was held, in the case of " The King v. Stratton," that when it was net an indictment, but.a criminal information filed by the Attorney. General himself, he might there enter a nolle prosequi, the whole being under his own jurisdiction, and without the interference of the grand jury. In the case of Mr. Mitchel the parties pleaded in abatement, which was in effect a plea of lis pendens, and the Court of Queen's Bench decided that lis pendens was not, a good plea in a criminal case; but that they would not oblige the party to plead to the new indictment until the former indictment was quashed. Now, one bill having been found at the present Commission, and the Crown hoping to be able to go to trial upon it, they thought it right that another bill should not be pending against Mr. Duffy, and therefore he humbly moved that the former bill be quashed. Sir COLMAN OTOGHLEN thought that the most regular course would be to enter a nolle prosequl, but if their Lordships thought the better course would be to quash the indictment, they had no objection. The previous bills were quashed accordingly. Mr. SMYLT said that two writs of habeas corpus were issued in this case, one directing the city sheriff to hand over the prisoner to the custody of the county sherip, and the other to the county sheriff, directing him to re ceive the prisoner into his custody. Mr. BUTT—If their Lordships would pardon him for saying that Mr. Duffy was then brought to the bar pf the Court in Custody of the sheriff of the city, he would shortly state .the objection he made to this proposed transference of custody. He did not disguise front his Learned Friends for the Crown, that his real objection wasto the trial of Mr. Duffy on this indictment in the custody of whomsoever he might be. This was a bill of indictment found by the grand jury of the county for an offence committed in the city. That could not be dope 'at common law; it could only take place un d er t h e 6 t h George IV., chapter 51. Under the 3d section .of that Act this bill had been found, but the 6th section of that Act provided that it shall and may be lawful for the justices, ten days before the holding ,of any session of oyer and terminer; by proper writs of habeas corpus, to cause any person who ma! be in cuitody of the sheriff to be removed into the cus tody of the sheriff of such next adjoining county, in order to their trial. This 6th section, providing for this exact case, desires the prisoner to be .removed by an order made ten days before the sessions, and it was per fectly plain and :manifest:that such an order could not be made during the - sitting of the court. On those grounds he prayed toe Court that if the writs of habeas corpus were improvidently issued they be now withdrawn and quashed. Judge CRAMPTON said that when he signed the writs he was under the impression that he did so as a Judge of the Queen's Bench. • Mr. BUTT said that in either case the same objection would apply. Mr. SMYLY said, if the Attorney-General had removed the same bills of indictment from the city to the county, the notice should have been given ten days previously; 'but Where the bills 'were virtually new, and originated with the county grand jury, as in this case, he contended that notice was not necessary. After some discussion, Judge CRAMPTON entered into an examination of the several sections referred to by counsel, and expressed himself of opinion that the section under which the writ of habeas corpus must be issued ten days before the holding of the Commission, referred to cases where the indictment was sought to he trans ferred from the city to the county. Mr. BUTT contended that the 6th section applied to the present case, where an indictment was found by the grand jury for an offence committed in the city. There were two cases dealt with by the statute—one where an indictment found in the city was to be transferred to the county—the other where an indictment was originally found in the county for an offence committed in the city. The 6th section manifestly could not apply to the former case, because the prosecutor had no right to remove the indictment from the city to the county without an order of the Court. That order must be made when the Court was sitting; and, of course, it would then be utterly im possible to have the habeas corpus issued ten days prior to the opening of the Commission. Thus the operation of the 6th section was clearly limited to cases such as the present, and did not apply to cases where the indict ment was transferred from the city to the county. Mr. Justice TORRENS did not think the prisoner was aggrieved by having the bill of indictment found against him in the county. It was merely a transfer of the in dictment to answer the charge preferred against him in a ne w jurisdiction, without reference to new proceedings. If Counsel looked at the section cif the Act that applied he would find that such was the case. Mr. BUTT—That would•be true if the bill of indict ment was found for an offence committed in the county. Mr. Justice TORRENS—.The bill of indictment being preferable in the county, th e l aw must cons id er the of fence as having been committed in the county. Mr. BUTT would undertake to show that such was not the case. The venue wa s not laid- in the county o f Dublin, but in the city, in the p ar i s h o f S t . Th omas ; malt had'be e n decided that when the venue was laid in the county it should be proved that th e ac t s h a d b een c committed y in the county. An application might have been made I for a writ authority habeas to corp us ten days b efore, grant? but where was th e ON — What is Your motion ? Mr. BUTT — To q uash Mr. Just ice Cit "PT the indictment 0 t U he Actground r quires. that there have been nu reCogninances. 43 the CRAMPTON will ra i se the same Mr. Justice URAM should d t n ra o n t transfer put in question. . . • theno t t ha d t e m ny nDuff rt y g s h h t Mr. BUTT—rWe do the Crown ; but we say . . upon his trial, at,this Commiss io n. In truth this is an objection to the arraignment. i Colman O'Loghlen, who has considered the case more than I h ave, will now proceed, wit; your Lordship' ) permission. Sir COLMAN' 011,001thtlf then proceeded to say that their objection to the indictment was threefold. The Court was aware that- the indictment, which was for an offence committed in the countY _of the cit— y of Dublin, was found by the county Kam! jury as being of the county adjoining. It was plain that unless the Crown was authorised to do this by statute they could not do so by common law. If there was authority at all for the proceeding it was given by the 6th of G eo . IV., cap. 51 and counsel submitted that the i n dictment should be quashed on three grounds —'first, that the Act did not apply to public but to private) prosecutions; second d , as suming that it did,' that t he ten d ays' ' notice rendered necessary had not been given; _Tid, thi r dl y ; that the Provisions of the 13t h s ection, which required that a into ha d re cognizance should be entered not been com- plied with. • Mr.' SMYLY said it was a mistake to say that the re cognisance had not been' entered int o . . Counsel then handed in the recognizanc e. - Sir COLMAN (YLOGELEN proceeded to say t h at he was not aware that the recognissnces had been entered into. But the other-objietlena remained. Supposi ng th at t h e Act applied_to public pros ections, th e ten d ays ' notice that the case will be brought into asadjoining co un ty had not been' givene The recognisanees should have custody .of the s h er iff o f been returned to - the next county, the party s h ou ld have, been removed into. the the county tett-days before the sitting of the Court, arid ten - days' notice of the proceeding should have been given to the party or his witnesses. Ten days' notice should have been given to the person before whom th e . infoonttious were given, that they might 4e raturued at 411 ,; quashing the indictment, Mr. Justice TORRENS detailed the circumstances with regard to the sending up bills of indictment against Mr. Duffy to the city and county grand jury; and having alluded to the law applicable to the case, and tho argu ments used by Mr. Duffy's counsel, his Lordship stated that himself and his Learned Brother were of opinion that the prosecutor had not complied with the provisions of the statute, and that, therefore, the prisoner could not be removed out of the custody of the city sheriff. Ten (lays' notice of the intention to change the venue from the city to the county should have been given; and that not having been done, the effect is that the prisoner could not be called upon to abide his trial now. Mr. Justice CRAMPTON next deliverid his judgment, which was to the same effect, that the trial of Mr. Duffy could not be proceeded with till the next Commission, to be held in January. TIE QUEEN V. O'DOREATT. Monday, at ten o'clock, was fixed for the trial of Mr. O'Doherty (one of the proprietors of the Tribune), for the third time. THE CONVICTED CONFEDERATES. This morning, Michael Moran, John Joseph Moran, and James M'Cormack, the first convicted of having stabbed, and the two latter of having assaulted John Byrne, a policeman in this city, in July last, were called up for sentence. .Mr. Justice CRAMPTON having dwelt at some length upon the circumstances of the case, and the heinous ness of the offence, sentenced Michael Moran to .be transported for fifteen years, and the others to be im prisoned for nine months each, with hard labour. SPECIAL COMMISSION. It is supposed that a Special Commission to try Duffy will be sought for by the Attorney-General. THE STATE PRISONERS. We understand, says the Evening Post, that writs of error having been allowed by the Attorney-General, in the cases of the State prisoners recently convicted at Clonmel, warrants respiting the capital punishment during pleasure will bo transmitted to the high sheriff. We are enabled to state that the Lord-Lieutenant had, previous to his departure, intimated his pleasure to this effect, and had allowed an assurance to be conveyed to those most interested in learning the fate of Mr. O'Brien that the extreme penalty of the law would'not be carried into effect. The official notificatidn'ef a'reipite has only been delayed until the writs of error had been regularly allowed. THE LATE DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT CAMBERWELL.

WORCESTER. -- Of the twenty-two acceptances for the Grand Annual, which will be run on Friday next, the 3d proximo,' a field of fifteen or sixteen may be ex pected' to start. Last year the number was sixteen ; but Chandler, who, in November, 1847, with Captain Little, lOst 101 b, was the winner, being this time pe nalized for his victories at Leamington (1-Ist 121 b), and , at Liverpool (11st 181 b), with the topping or stopping weight of 12st 71b, is withdrawn. ProCeed (winner at Wakefield, with I Ist 41b up) now heads the list at 12st 21b, but is a doubtful goer.

THE 'NEW MEMBER POE LYNN.—Lord Alexander Lennox has declined the honour of becoming a candi date for the representation of the borough of Lynn. It would appear that the Protectionists and the Peelites— or the . " Jocelynites;" as the latter are called in those parts , -determined to prolong the family fend, were divided in their choice of a candidate, and an opposition in the Conservative' camp was threatened if either section should persist in naming its man. Lord Alexander Lennox wisely refused to be a party to any division of interests, and accordingly both sides have again taken counsel together, and, as one body, finally agreed to in vite the son of Lord Stanley to become the successor of Lord George Bentinck. The Hon. W. Stanley need not fear to tread in the steps of any man, be he who he may, as time will show; but we warn Conservatives, whether of Lynn or condo[. to be men, flat children, in their ge neration: Is it fitting that in days like these, there should be the bickerings of women upon every. small occasion, and that loyal men should be dwelling upon past griev ances and old antipathies, whilst the country N; ri,; for ' all the aid"that united wisdom, intelligence, end honesty can give her?—John Bull.
