There might also be respectable persons who, on hearing of the prisoners being in custody, might volunteer evidence on their behalf. Air. Fowler said the three solicitors engaged in the case were well known in Alanchater, and if any person desired to give evidence in Ltyour of any of he prisoners, all he had to do was to communicate with the solicitor. Mr. Jones then said he had another matter to bring under the notice of the Court. The prisoners had been brought to the court for preliminary ex amination with handcuffs on. At trials at the ses sions and assizes such a thing was unheard of ; he had never known of .such a thing at a preliminary examination. In 1848, when much more serious matters than these were under consideration, it was not thought of for a moment. It appeared to be discreditable to the administration of justice that men whom the law presumed to be innocent until they were found to be guilty should be brought into court handcuffed together like a couple of hounds ; and he had to make application that the handcuffs be ordered to be taken off. Mr. Cottingham made a similar application. It was a spectacle most unusual in any court of justice to see prisoners brought in handcuffed. The judges at assizes would not tolerate such,a thing; it would be regarded as an insult to the Court.- He had himself seen Baron Martin ifiterpose, rhen, after a man had received sentence of death, the turnkeys were about to put the handcuffs on him in the dock. Baron Martin ordered them to be removed, and insisted that no ironing should take place in the presence of the Court. There was a sufficient force to guard the Court, and he submitted that while the prisoners were examined the handcuffs ought to be removed.

The case against the prisoners charged with the murder of Sergeant Brett was then proceeded with. Mr. Higgin, in opening the case for the prosecu tion, said he appeared in the case, instructed by the authorities, to prefer a charge against the whole of the men who were now present in the dock, or such of them as should be proved to the satisfaction of that Bench to have taken part in the attack upon the police van on the 18th of this month. He was there to make a charge against them all of wilful murder. He did not conceive that it was any part of the duty which he felt to be cast upon him to enlarge at any very great length upon the enormity of the offence which had been committed. That Manchester had been startled from its propriety by the knowledge that the ordinary police van which was usually used for the conveyance of prisoners backwards and forwards from the gaol of this city to the place at which they should take their trial Ind been stopped in one of the public and one of the most frequented streets of the city— had been attacked by an arinedinob, and e' - restne bad been effected, and that at the expense of the life of at least one person, an esteemed officer, in the exercise of his public duty—such a state of things was highly discreditable, and was a state of things calculated to arouse very great alarm and apprehension in the minds of all the peaceable citi zens. He had nothing whatever to say which at all might aggravat e the in this case position in which these men stood, but he c o nceived it to be his duty very shortly to state the facts of the case aga inst them, and then call wit nesse s to prove these facts ; and having done that with ve ry great respect, but at the same time with th a t fi r mness which he believed should characterise th e position occupied by one such as himself, to call upon the Bench to do their duty. In his opinio n th at d u ty could only be per formed by the com m itt a l o f such persons as he should include in th e ev id ence to take their trial for the wilful murder of th e p o lice officer. On the 18 th of the present month, it wou ld appear that certain persons had their c ases i nves tigated in this court, and among those persons were two who had ob tained the names of Kelly and lleasey respectively ; and they, together with a number of other persons, were conveyed from this court towards the city prison in Hyde-road. Th e v an used was the ordi nary prison van, in which there was a box - seat for the driver, and a se a t on eac h side to be occupied by police-officers. Insid e t h e v an were a number of chambers, with doo rs , in which was a ventila tor something like a clos e d V ene tian blind. The pri soners were put into these compartments, the doors were locked, and they we re conveyed to their desti nation. In the door at th e b a ck of the van there was also a ventilator, l arger in size, and the lower part of that ventilator was made to open upon a sv, ivel. It was opened by a lock such as those attached to railway carriages. Underneath this ventilator in the door was another lock, exactly like the lock attached to a railway ca rr i ag e door, and opened in the same way. When th e van le ft the court there was in each compartment a prisoner in custody, and in addition there were three or four women in the alley or passage up the middle of the van. There were a number of police-officers accompany ing the van upon the roof, and also sitting beside the driver. There were also some police officers standing upon the footboard of the van. He was not aware that any of the officers who had charge of the van were armed in any respect whatsoever. An officer who was well known to this court, and he thought well known to all who had practice in that court or at quarter sessions —Sergeant Brett—was inside the van at the time of the occurrence. He seemed to have had the keys in his possession. They would find from the evidence that these keys were three in number, and were upon a ring. Ile was locked up inside the van, and, having the keys in his possession, had the only means of gaining an entrance to the van or of getting out of it. The van proceeded through the streets of Manchester, and nothing whatever happened in the way of molesta tion until it arrived at the railway arch which car ried the London and North Western Railway across Hyde-road ; and if his recollection served him that arch didnot cross the road at right angles. Upon arriving at that arch it became manifest., from what immediately occurred as well as subsequently, that a deliberate attempt was to be made by some per sons to stop the van, and to release some at least of the persons within the van. That seemed to have been carried out, unfortunately, so far as regarded two of the persons inside. Upon the horses getting to the railway arch a man stepped forward in the front, and ordered the driver to stop the horses. That person, whoever he was, was armed with a revolver. Immediately upon that, a number of other persons made their appearance, armed also—many of them, at any rate—with revolvers, and from their demeanour, and the way in which they conducted themselves, there can be no room left in a reasonable man's mind to doubt that they were assembled there for the express purpose of violence, by extreme by taking life if necessary f — or t c o e c i ff f encetctehsseairry—yl deliberate na purpose, that of stopping the van, and by force removing some of the pri soners therein.

The van being brought to a standstill, pisto's were fired at the driver, and at the officers who sat beside him on the box. Under these circumstances it was not to be wondered at that the driver and those persons thus exposed took care of themselves, being utterly unable to cope with those who were so armed. The men proceeded then to attack the van ; some got to the top, and some large stones found in Lb: neigh bourhood were Pfted on the footboard and the top, and other persoks began to latter in the top, and the van at the present moment had a. large hole bat tered through, or nearly through, on the roof i and it would be found, after inspection, that there were other marks of violence 'on it. There were on vari ous parts'of it undeniable marks of bullets having been fired. Brett was inside. They would find one Of the men engaged in this unlawful transaction went to the back and demanded that Brett should give up the keys. Brett refused, and said he would stick to them to the last. Accordingly he did so. He was then threatened flat if he did not give them up he would be shot. These threats did not appear to have any effect on him. He still continued stead fastM his post, having charge of the keys. He de clined to give them up. Immediately at that some of the witnesses say that a number of shots were fired through the ventilator. Whether one or more were fired there might be some doubt, but it was certain that one shot was fired by the man Allen through the ventilator. It was fired with deliberate aim, andit took effect in the head of Brett, entering the skull on the right hand side, and coming out on the other. The bullet was found in the van, and would be produced. A hatchet was then produced, and used at the back of the van, and ultimately, the keys not being forthcoming, threats were made to shoot the women unless they produced the keys. Under such threats they seem to have taken the keys from Brett, and passed them through the ventilator. The door was opened by the keys, and the man Allen entered the van, and, having tried a number of cells which were locked, and not coming to what he con sidered to be the right one, he asked, " Where is Kelly ?" Kelly was in the van, and answered that he was there. Allen went to that cell and opened it ; and they would find that two of the prisoners that were committed that morning —viz., Kelly and Deasgy—were released from the van, and up to the present moment had defeated the efforts of the police to take them. Brett fell to the ground when the van was opened, and some of the women came out, and they would be called as to what they saw and heard during the time this attack was made. He apprehended that the bench had no doubt what ever with respect to the man Allen, and also as to Larkin, for they were the two who took a prominent part in this outrageous transaction. He did not intend to point out more particularly the other persons engaged in this unlawful transaction, be cause the evidence he should have to call before the Court would be of considerable length. Of course everything would depend upon the identification of the persons who were there upon their trial. Wit nesses would be called to speak to the identification. He (Mr. Higgin), as appearing for the prosecution, would say that if there was one man among them who was now present charged with this offence of whom it could be proved to the satisfaction of the bench that he was not there, or having been there took no part whatever in this unlawful attack, he, for one, should be glad for him to be set at liberty. On the other hand, he believed he was prepared to produce evidenle which would compel the magis trates, in the exercise of a public duty, to decline themselves a minute investigation, but to leave it to another and more proper tribunal to pursue a more minute examination than might be necessary there. Brett was removed in a cal) to the Infirmary, and soon afterwards died. He apprehended that-there could be no doubt whatever that Brett was murdered. It was the offence of murder to shoot that man, being an officer in the exercise of his public duty as a police officer. It was no matter, as regarded the investiga tion of the case, whether it was the intention of this man, or such of them as he should bring within the four corners of this charge, only to release one or two particular persons in that van or any other persons. If a number of men associated themselves together for the purpose of making an attack upon the police officer, when the officer was in the execution of his duty, and if one of such a body shoots and kills a police-officer while in the execution of a public duty, according to the law of this country it was not only wilful murder in the man who fircd the shot, but it was wilful murder in the case of the others who were there, and taking part in that transaction, and assisting in that unlawful act. That was the law as affected the case, and, believing it to be the law, he proposed to lay such evidence as should satisfy them that the police-officer Brett was murdered by one of those men who were then before them, and that the others, or such of them to whom he should bring the charge home, were engaged assisting him in that transaction. If that was so, not only that one man, but all the others who had assisted were equally guilty of the offence he charged them with —that of wilful murder. Mr. Fowler—Do you not think it desirable to have the ran inspected ? I understand it is close by. Mr. Higgin said he thought so. Mr. Fowler—We had better go and see it at once. Perhaps ➢ir. Cottinghatn, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Ro berts would go too. Mr. Higgin said it was in the police yard close by. Mr. Cottingham asked Mr. Fowler, with referenca to the other prisoners dismissed on this specific charge, whether they would be called up to-day ? Mr. Fowler—Do you really think the case will finish? Mr. Cottingham—The witnesses want to go. Mr. Fowler—You may send all the witnesses away in that case. The prisoner Patrick Kelly asked if he could have time to send for witnesses. Mr. Joule said he would. Mr. Fowler and several of the magistrates and solicitors then left the court, and after a short in terval returned to court. Mr. Higgin then said that in the case of John Morris he would withdraw him from the charge. Mr. Fowler—lf there is no evidence against him let him be removed. Morris—Could I be admitted to bail, as I am employed in a curious position ? Mr. Fowler—You must wait to see what course they propose taking. At present you may stand down. Mr. Higgin then asked that the depositions taken at the last examination should be read over. The clerk then read the deposition of Constable Yarwood, in which he stated that he identified Allen, Larkin, Gould, Wilson, and Boyland. He was now asked if he could swear to any others, and he further iden tified Maguire and Bacon, who was lame. lie said he saw Allen go towards the back of the van from the bank. ,Ile did not see Maguire do anything, but he was on the bank with the rest. lie saw Bacon in a publichouso on the Hyde-road, just after he had been to Belle Vue with the other prisoners. That was the first time he saw him. The inn was either the Wellington Inn or the Hyde-road Inn. There is a beerhouse under the arch called the Half-way House. He was asked his impression of the time, and said he could not tell. He did not know what time he left the court. Ile never looked at his watch until he got back from the Town-hall. It was some where about .5 or 6, as near as he could guess. The row was then over. There were not many in the inn when he went there after returning. He had never seen these men before. Witness was at the right of the driver next but one. Shaw was between the driver and himself. They were through the arch about two yards when the first shot was fired. On the left of the arch, on getting through it, is an open brickfield, and on the right is the railway embank ment. There he saw the men. He should fancy there were 70 to 100, all of them strangers. Larkin came up to witness, There was no one with witness, ,/ (_,,, ,/ . .. ... . , . . i ,?4 , ft , ..' ~ ..a.in• Au ).. : -- - 7 ' - i. d'A :l• • • ' 7 4 .-- --- i ;A :.1 ° - '1, 44, 4 * -‘' '. - •-•---: - Ai.. , 'ti`' - '''...,) 2.

Why should they not have leg irons as well ? Can it be said they have sufficient freedom from restraint to conduct their defence, and to take the part they have to take when theirs is in issue? It is quite unprecedented. You have not the precedent of the superior courts; we have never heard anything is oar experience, and you in your long experience have n •t heard anything like it. You have a co:npetent force in this court to subdue anything like an attempt at a rescue, or any attempt on the part of these men to make their escape. I cannot see any pretence for it, except to impress the public mind that these are desperate men. The other policemen were running about. He was about a yard from the van, outside the archway. He was about two yards from the horses. The at tack was made from the left hand or briekcroft Ihe men were on this side. He jumped off on the right side, and it was o•n that silo he met Larkin. Ile picked up a stone. It was a small one. Threw it to barn him. Witness knocked the pistol up. Latkin ran atter witness towards the tollhar, and kept firing. lie fired three shots.

Mr. Cottingham concluded by again urging that the prisoners be relieved from the pressure of the manacles. " Witness drove to Veil Vue, and did not go imme diately to the inn. He came back with the turnkeys after being away ten minutes, and he saw a lot run ning—about 20. 'They had a goOd start. He came up with them when they got to the wall dividing the railway from Ashton-road. Some civilians had then got larking. Recognised him then. He would have known him if he had not seen him in custody. He would swear that was not the first time he saw him. Larkin was given over to two other officers by the civilians. The civilians were " laying" on to him as hard as they could. He did not know the civilians. Cross-examined by tlr. Roberts—l was in the court before Kelly and Deasey were removed. I do not remember the exact time when the business of the Court closed. Mr. Roberts said he wished to ascertain the exact time of the occurrence, or as nearly as possible. Mr. Fowler said there bad already been consider able cross-examination on that point. Ile proposed that the officer should at once be asked the precise time when the van left the court. Inspector Garner said it started at 20 minutes Mr. Fowler said--With regard to the observations of Mr. Jones about the officers I must say I am ex ceedingly sorry be has made them. The military have been called upon by the magistrates of Man chester to perform certain duties, and certain portions of the military now quartered in Manchester are within a certain distance of this court. Some of the officers who are not called upon to be on guard at the moment happened to come to this court as private friends of my own, and are present on the bench as mere spectators. Mr. Jones—lf they are friends of yours, there (pointing to the gallery) is the place for them. Private friends of my own are there, and your private friends should be in the same place. Mr. Fowler—l shall not take any further notice of that part of your objection. With regard to the manacles, thepolice have been called upon to protect the interests of justice and the Court, and if they think that the handcuffing of prisoners is part of the measures necessary to be adopted, I cannot take upon myself to order them to be removed. But if any prisoner is suffering, I will take upon myself to say he shall have some other handcuffs put upon him that do not hurt him. past 3. Cross-examined—The van would arrive at the railway arch before 4 o'clock, supposing it to have taken half an hour to get there. I have arrested no one in connexion with this charge, but I have iden• tilled some. I identified Bacon and Thos. Maguire at the Albert-street station. I also identified Boy land as one whom I had seen close to the archway, on the Manchester side. I was on the left-hand side of the road. This was before the rescue; he was standing like an ordinary spectator. There was nothing remarkable in his conduct. By Mr. Higgin—l saw Larkin apprehended by a civilian. That was a good distance from the arch way. I was out of breath. I had followed in pur suit all the way. From about 70 to 100 men ap peared to be present at the attack on the van. I cannot say how many were actively concerned in it. By Mr. Cottingham—l followed in pursuit of a number of men, but I did not know whether Larkin was in the lot or not. Mr. Higgin—But he turned out to be in that lot, because he was taken.—Yes. George Shaw, police-constable, attached to the court, was next called, and his deposition read over to him. In examination by Mr. Higgin, he said— I heard a voice inside of the van saying, " He's killed." That was after the shot had been fired through the door by Allen. There is a ventilator in the door of the van that turns on a swivel. It is fastened and unfastened by an ordinary carriage lock, and lower down in the door is another similar lock. Before the time the shot was fired by Allen they had been knocking at the ventilator with stones and breaking it. They were not regular paving stones, but appeared to be got out of a quarry. When the shot was fired by Allen I was leaning against the abutment of the railway arch, on the right hand side watching the proceedings. I dare not go nearer. Allen seemed to be talking to some one inside the van for a short time before he fired. I saw him put a pistol to the keyhole of the ventila tor and fire ; I only saw him fire once. It was a woman's voice that said, " lle's killed." I then attempted to get upon the van, when I was fired at again, and driven back. I was fired at several times as I was running away, and was about 30 yards froin the van when Brett fell out of the van ; he was out when I saw him. I was about 20 yards off when Allen fired. I believe it was Allen who shot Sprosson ; I have no doubt of it. He came running down the road about 20 yards and fired. I cannot say that I saw any of the persons come out of the van who had been in custody in it. There would not be less than 100 shots fired ; at one time they went off very thick. Cross-examined by Mr. Jones.—l heard part of you r cross-examination of Yarwood, but left the court as soon as the witnesses were ordered out. I was the officer nearest to the door of the van, at the end where Allen was. There were several persons in the road between me and the van. The two principal points of the skirmish were at the head of the van and the tail of the van. Allen, when he came running down the road, fired directly at me, and hit Sprosson. This was after Brett bad been shot. I had Allen impressed on my memory from the first by his daring work. lam certain that he was the man who fired the shot that hit Sprosson. An adjournment of half an hour took place after the conclusion of this witness's examination. On the reassembling of the court, Mr. Jones said he must repeat his application with reference to the handcuffs on these men. In the first place, the prisoners Allen and Gould had shown him their hands. The handcuffs were too small, and their hands were swelling under the action of these handcuffs. They said that the pain and inconvenience so caased, and the indignity, prevented their attending to the evidence, and, therefore, making suggestions to counsel. In the interests of justice, he requested that these hand cuffs might be taken off these prisoners. Another thing he might be permitted to say as an officer of the court, which every member of the bar was, and as a citizen of Manchester, that he thought it very unseemly that a part of the military force should be on the bench where the magistrates were sitting. Mr. Roberts said that, in furtherance of the same view, he would submit that one of the requirements of the constitution as well of the law was, that the magistrates should have before them when these depositions were taken a perfect man in the shape of the criminal. It was obvious that the require ment that the prisoner should be present would not be satisfied by his coming there if he were asleep, or if he were in torture, or if he were suffering from accident or prostration by sickness ; and he con tended that the fair application of the rule was that the man who came before them for trial should be as free as possible, consistently of course with the necessities of the place where he was tried. Was it likely, was it possible, could they believe it them selves, that men suffering under the imprisonment, the assault, and the torture which these men were, could have the same mental capacity or bodily strength that they would have if they came in the ordinary way ? Ile asked, therefore, that the pri soners should be so far as possible placed in the same position of freedom and liberty as those who charged them and gave evidence against them. Mr. Cottingham said the prisoner Larkin bad complained to him Df the extreme pain and incon venience he had suffered for several hours owing to the pressure of the handcuffs upon him. He sub mitted that Mr. Fowler had complete power to deal with this case, the gentlemen around Lim being merely spectators of the scene. Mr. Fowler—Not so ; I am chairman of a bench of magistrates. Mr. Jones—Then, as a member of the English Bar, I decline to sit in any court where the police override the magistrates. I will not lend myself to any such violation of the ordinary course of justice. There is your brief, Mr. Roberts. I am sorry to to return it, but I cannot disgrace the Bar by proceeding with the defence. (Loud hisses from the gallery.) Mr. Jones then handed back to Mr. Nnttall's client the brief for the defence of another of the prisoners, and gathering up his papers and his umbrella left the court. Mr. Fowler told the four prisoners represented by Mr. Jones that he was very sorry for the course Mr. Jones bad thought it proper to take, and would give them the opportunity of getting further advice. The prisoners said they should not have the same confidence in any other counsel. Ultimately the magistrates retired to consult with Capt. Palin as to the necessity for the prisoners remaining manacled. On the return of the magistrates, after an a.b. Bence of twenty minutes, Mr. Fowler said the magistrates regretted, after due consultation, that they could not comply with the application of Mr. Jones, but from information in the bands of the police and the authorities, they did not think it would be prudent to remove the handcuffs. (Applause from the gallery, which was immediately repressed.) Mr. Fowler again asked the prisoners if they wished to have fresh counsel. Mr. Roberts said they declined, but they would be content with their handcuffs being changed where necessary. Mr. Fowler directed this to be done. Thotnas Pathson, of West Gorton, a puddler to brickulakers, said he was at work on Wednesday afternoon week, and heard a noise in the direction of the railway arch, Hyde-road, about 20 minutes past 4 o'clock. lie was about 400 yards from the place, on the left hand side. The noise was that of knocking on the van. On hearing the noise he went up to within ten yards of the van. He got on Heywood's wall, adjoining Hyde-road. When he saw 30 to 40 men firing pistols. The 'bus had passed 15 to 20 yards bqoud the railway arch. There were men throwing stones at the van and breaking the door at the back in. One stone was about a foot in length, and they had a larger one. They were breaking the top in. Allen was at the top, and Thomas Maguire was throwing up stones to him. Allen was breaking the top iu. Heard reports of pistols before he got there, as well as after. lie saw the man engaged in breaking the roof. A man with white slop and cord trousers on was at the back of the van, and he said, " Shoot the —, he's inside." Allen was running about threatening to shoot any one who might ap proach him. Ile had a revolver in each hand. Allen afterwards placed one of the revolvers against the ventilator of the van and fired. A scream fol lowed, and the door of the van was opened, and Brett fell out. After that he saw two men come out of the van having handcuffs on. Allen was with them and said—" Anal), Kelly, I'll die for you !" Alien then said he would shoot any man that fol- lowed. lie had two pistols then, but witness never saw him after that. Allen, Gould, and Larkin stopped behind the rest, and afterwards followed the two men who had come out of the van and who had gone in the direction of the Sheffield railway. ‘Vitnesi identified the prisoner Martin as one who was throwing stoues, and Patrick Kelly. After looking at Sergeant Brett witness and others fol lowed Ktdly, Gould, and Larkin. They caught Lar kin in the Midland Railway yard, across the Shef field line. As they followed, Allen fired from the top of the Sheffield line at a man named Mark Holland, who was alongside of witness. When they took Larkin he had no pistol. There were some tracks on the Sheffield line, which he passed, Wit ness assisted to take Allen about three yards from Ashton New-road. He had a revolver in his hand and said, " I'll surrender." A young named Hunter took the revolver from Allen, who had fired several times at those who were following. A police-officer came and took him as he was getting ill-treated. Saw a lot of cartridges taken from his pocket, and a book and old pipe head. The proceedings before the magistrates closed about six o'clock by the prisoners being remanded till to-morrow. There was an imposing military 'orce to escort the prisoners from the court, They have been given over to the custody, during the night, of the military, under General Sir John Grarvock, who engages to be responsible for their production to•morrow. At a meeting of the authorities to-night, it has been determined to alter the terms in which the reward for Kelly and D easey is offered, by engaging to keep the name of the informer secret. Mr. Cottingham said that under the statute under which'Mr. Fowler was acting he had power to try the case by himself. Mr. Fowler—l am only one here, bound by the majority. I represent two magistrates in most cases, when sitting alone.

The prisoners implicated in the recent Fenian outrage in this city were brought up this morning at the police court. The safe conduct of the pri soners from the City Gaol to the City Court was insured by an escort of horse and foot, and 100 rank and file were marched up to the Court-house, Bridge-street, while the prison vans were being con voyed from the gaol. The cortege moved at a quick pace, and o wing to the early hour (8.30) there was less popular demonstration than might have been expected. The police arrangements, which are being carried out by Captain Palin, are of the completest kind. Mr. Robinson Fowler, stipendiary magistrate, presided, and a large number of the city justices were also present on the bench. Mr. Higgin, deputy-recorder of Manchester, conducted the pro secution. In answer to Mr. Fowler, Mr. Higgin said he did not intend to include all the prisoners in the charge which would first be proceeded with—that of the murder of Sergeant Brett. As soon as that charge was disposed of, he would be in a position to state the course he intended to take with respect to the other prisoners. The following prisoners were then placed in the dock, charged with the wilful murder of Sergeant Brett, on the 18th of this month :—William O'Meara Allen, Edward Shore, Henry Wilson, and William Gould, defended by Mr. Ernest Jones, barrister ; Michael Larkin, Patrick Kelly (from Galway), Charles Moorhouse, Joh❑ Brennan, John Bacon, and William Martin, defended by Mr. Cottinghain, barrister ; John F. Nugent and James Sherry, defended by Mr. Wo7d ; Robert M‘Williains, de fended by Mr. Bremner; Michael Maguire, Thomas Maguire, Michael Morris, Michael Bryan, Michael Corcoran, and Thomas Ryan, defended by Mr. Bennett; and John Carroll, John Gleeson, Michael Kennedy, John Morris, Patrick Kelly (from Leitrim), Hugh Foley, Patrick Coffey, Thomas Kelly, and Thomas Scalley, defended by Mr. W. P. Roberts, instructed by the subscribers to a defence fund. Mr. Jones said he wished to bring a matter be fore the Court for instruction. It had been stated in the newspapers that the witnesses for the pri soners would not be admitted except by a certificate from the solicitor. Mr. Fowler said he believed the solicitor would give a slip which would be presented to Capt. Palin and would entitle the witues3 to a seat in the court provided for him. Mr. Jones asked that some alteration might be made in that arrangement, as in some cases in which he was instructed the solicitor himself did not know the names o the witnesses, and these witnesses
