The Loan CHANCRLLOR ordered the prisoner to he remanded, as.he'did not think Sliffitierirgrotine tVii% skew!) for his .discharge, but at the same rime he would earnestly advise the Commissioners to bring the. prisoner up again once more and to examline,. him carefully.

Mr. LITTLEDALE moved that Rohcrt Shorter, on e .4 the venders of Mr Catlile's Itt:puhlican, tOtotild plead ton criminal infatuation. The defendant was then called into Court, and atter'', had taken his station on the fi9or, DEALTRY read the information. After the first rouse hid been read, Mr. Dealtry proceeded to the second, anti the succeeding comps, previous to . the 1'1..44(141g Of each of which, the defendant demanded, in_. a rude manner, whether it was the aann publication that was called..a libel, to which Mt. Dealtry answeted in the affirmative. Aber the iofortna , ion had been read through, Mr. DEALTRY asked the defendant whether be pleaded tznilly or .not guilty ? "f he Defendant—lf 1 plead now,. When shall he pot upon my trial ? The CHIEF-jUStICE—That does not rest - with rne,.Sir ; you ate only now asked whether you chose to plead or not. The Defendant—But if I plead now, shall I be teied now ? I am charged with publiShing a. se ditious iibrl, which I certainly -did publish as•a newsman, and I say l an► innocent lam ready to be 'tied now. . The CHIEF-JUSTICE---I cannot appoint when your trial is to take place. The Defendant—lf I plead notv, shall I be under the necessity of procuring bail, because J am at present noprepaied ? The CRIEF.JUsTICE—The Officer will inform you npon.tbA subj e ct. Mi. DEALTuv—Other persons who have been charged with similar inforthations, have not been requited to put in bail. The Detendant—But they did not plead. The I H I EF-JUSTICE—Tbey clime, I understood, to - avail themselves of the time allowed them by the practice of the Court, to consider of their pleas. Do- ,you wish to have a similar indul gence ? Yon can have time if you choose. The D4endant—But, my Lord, I do not want this to he hanging over my head, his to me the greatest punishment k.o be kept in suspense. It I pleadllow, when shall I be tried ? Am I to be kept ill suspense nwil after next T,,m ? I he CHEF JUSTICE—AII you are now required to do, is to nom,' the question which is put to you. Do you choose to plead or not ? Or will you take time to plead ? The Detentlant—Still ant 1 to be kept in sus= pense nntd after next Term ? The CHIEF-JUSTICE-1 cannot answer that question. ' , it . . I cannot appoint your trial. The Delendant-IVvll, I will consider of it, and answer in two or three minutes. how many counts are there in that information ? Mr. DEALTRY—Srven. Mr - pealtry now read over another Criminal Information, for the publication of one of Carlile's blasphemous librls. After this intosmation was read over, the de fendant was again asked to plead. The defendant-1 - plead Not Guilty to both in fotthations, and the sooner, the trials are brought on the better. Thedefendant then retired from the Court. SENTENCE UPON RICHARD CARLILE. This - being tl►e day appointed for bt inging this defendant up to receive the Jddg t nent of the Court for the two libels of which he was con victed at the late , Sittings at GUildball, as soon as the Court was full, he stood up, whilst the Lord Chief Justice read his Report of both trials, which his Lordship did, without reciting the offensive matter of the two libels, suggesting► as a rea s on, that his brother Judges bud been furnished with copies of the libellous passages. As soon as the Reports were finished, his Lordship, Inoking wards the defendant, asked f►iin whether he bad any affidavits; when. • Mr. DENMAN, to the, apparent surprise of the Court, immediately rose and announced that he was instructed to move the Court in arrest of judgment.. The CHIEF JUSTICE—You move in arrest of judgment ?

PPRICE SEVENPENCE. upon at this late hoar of the proceedings, to ap ply himself to a question of this magnitude and importance, he certainly did not mean to decline the task imposed upon hitt], because be consider ed,, that in thus presenting• himself to the Court he was merely fulfilling the most ordinary duty cast upon members of that profession to which he had the hon One to belong. There was, there fore, he conceived, not the ,smallest occasion for - offering any apology-for any thing that might fall front him, still less of defending, any'apparent sin gularity in this point of view. The defendant .140 confided his instructions to him, to consider whether or tot he bad been legally convicted ; and the motion that he (Mr. D.) bad to submit to the Court was, that a Rule might be granted to shew cause why the judgment prayed against the defendant should not be arrested, on the ground that the defendant hadnot been convicted according to the Law of England. The Learned Counsel then went into a detailed argurient upon the point he intended to submit, which was shortly this :—that the offence of which he was convicted was no indictable at common law, inasmuch as the Statute 9 and 10 of William and Mary bad taken away, as be contended, the common law cognizance of the offence of blaspheniy, upon the principle that a Parliamentary enactment super seded the common law mode of proceeding against such an offence. In illustration of his argument he referred to the sth of Elizabeth, c. 9, touch ing the offence of perjury, re ;rating and forestall. lug. He was well aware that the King v. Taylor, ,reported in Ventris, was an authorby in favour of a common law plosettution, but at that time the Statute of 9 and 10 W. and M. bail not pasised.-- The hardship against the defendant was, t h at he was deprived of" the enumerated protections thrown around a defendant indicted upon that Statute. He referred to the cases of the King v. \Voolston, Strange, 850; and the King v. Wil liatits, contending that these did not militate against the proposition for which he contended. After stating such arguments as occurred to him in support of his objection— Tile JUDGES delivered their opinions seriatim, holding that the ohjection was not tenable. The statute of 9 and 10 W. and M. only .enacted cu mulative penalties upon the common law s gfii.nce, and by no means went to supersede the common law_liability. In the case of the King v. Robin. son, 2 Burr. 799, the' rule by which this case was to be decided was most cleanly laid down by Lord Mansfield, who said That where the offence intended to he guarded - . against by a statute, was punishable before th m e aking of such statute, prescribing a particular method of pu. , osbing ir , there such particular remc4 is cumu. lutire, and 'does not take away the former re medy ;, but where the statute, only enacts- s ' That the doing any act not punishable before, Shall for the future he punishable in such and such parti cular\ manncr,' there it is necessary that such par• ticular method, by such act prescribed, must be specifically pursued ; and not the entinnon law method of an indictment." The Court also said that the K;rig v. Hall, reported in Fitzgibbon, was a decisive whorl! y open the point, and there fore they over-ruled the objection. Mr. DENMAN, after he hod stated his objection in arrest of judgment, said, that any observations which might be suggested in mitigation of pu nishment, would come with much greater weight from the Oefendont himself. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then put 'in an affitia. Yit Made by, Mr. XV. B. Gurney, the short-hand writer, stating that the defendant had admitted on his trial that he had sold 3,000 copies of be Age of Reason at half a guinea each. The CHIEF JUSTICE then asked the defendant if he had any thing to offer in mitigation of pu nishment Mr. CARLILD said, he had not much to say in mitigation of punishment, but that be bad much to say why he should not be punished at all, The delcuda t then proceeded to address time Commit at considerable length. In the course of his aadrcas he introduced topics which called for the interpo• ction and animadversion of the Court We for bear giving his observations at length, but the following appearing to be the least objectionable we give them insettion My Lords—Called upon at this time to answer if I have any reasons to offer why judgment should not be passed against me, permit me, my Lords, to reply, - that 1 have been guilty of no crime. No crime, at least, for which consist ently with the principles of justice I ought to be made answerable before a human tribunal. I cannot now hope to set aside the verdict, which believe to have been wrongfully, given against me; but as yet the evil is not complete; I have suffered unjust imprisonment ; but by your jtilfg. went at this . time some amends may be ina,ie for the injustice J have sustained. I have been found guilty of publishing -Paine's Age of Reason. I contend, my Lords, that in so doing thete t is no Crime. I fear you think otherwise, bear viriAh me while I state the grounds of my opinion ' , My Lords, justice is invariably the same, she does not change with . time, she does not falter with alarm.; she stands above theelouds, and,with steady hand holds the balances, while storms and tempests play beneath her feet ; and Kingdoms and • Empires which regard not her decrees,_ perish beneath her frown. Pause, my Lords, .before yOu'_cOnsign me to a dungeon, or cast .roe forth to pnverty'andun. deserved disgrace, The objecti.of justie . e are the punishment of crime s and_ the letormdtion of the offrnder ; in this we agree, hitt surelOnsed not remind your Lordships, that it is the'tinen. tion which makes the crime. The distincuOns 'between murder, manslaughter, justifiable hgt i ni. cide, anti accidental killing, are well known, pnd have often been ex; lined by your Lonititips they, are the principles of. our revered eoglmon cwt. ash. octo 141 61 10 3 94
