SIR,— " We, the undersigned Proprietors of East India Stock, re quest that a Special General Court may b' convened at tha earliest period, to take into consideration the following resolu lions proposed to be submitted to them. Ist. That from the printed papers recently"laid before the Proprietors on the subject of Sinde, it is the opinion of this Court that the proceedings of the Government of Indic, which ended in the dethronement, exile, and imprisonment of the Arneers, and the seizure of their country and private property, Were uncalled for, impolitic, and unjust. " 2d. That this Court does therefore most earnestly recom znend to the Court of Directors the immediate adoption of such M 7Ps, by representation to her !Majesty's Government or other • ise, as may cause all practicable reparation to be made for the Injustice already committed, and enforce the abandonment of *line of policy inconsistent wish good faith, and subversive of the interests of the British rule in India.

DUBLIN, FRIDAY, JAN. 19. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCII. THE QUEEN V. DANIEL O'CONNELL AND OTHERS. The Court sat this morning at ten o'clock. Mr. O'Connell, attired in the bar costume of a Queen's Counsel, entered Court shortly before ten, and took his seat in the inner bar. The other two traversers were also punctually in attendance. The jury having heck called over, and answered to their names. Mr. Ross, whose evidence occupied a considerable portion of yesterday, was again called and examined on the part of the Crown by Sergeant Warren—lle deposed that he was present at a meeting of the Repeal Association, which took place on the 28th of August ; that meeting was at tended by three of the traversers—Mr. O'Connell, Mr. John O'Connell, and Mr. Ray ; witness has a note of Mr. O'Connell's speech on that occasion, in which he adverted to a plan which he had introduced at some previous meeting, for the reconstruction of the Irish Parliament.—(Read the ex tract in question from Mr. O'Connell's speech.) Has not in his notes a copy of a letter read that day from Mallow, but thinks he has a detailed manuscript copy of it. This manu script was written partly at tha Association, and partly from my notes. Look and see if you have a letter dated from Mallow, and purporting to be written by Richard Barnet Barrey, which was react at that meeting. Witness (reading from his short-hand notes)—Mr. O'Connell observed, on reading a letter containing subscrip tions that alluded to the Queen's speech, " that the speech from the Throne was merely a Ministerial production, and deserved to be characterised, as it was by the Morning Chronicle, as the essence of stupidity." He then adverted to the plan he proposed at the last meeting for the constitu tion of the Irish Parliament, and he said he would take up as the basis of it the census returns of 1831, which could not be supposed to have been framed for any purpose connected with the repeal of the union. He was disposed to adhere to that census, except where it was mentioned that some error existed in the details. He had received a letter from Mallow-- Mr. Sergeant WASMEN—That ' s what I want. Where is that letter ? I have not a copy of it ; it is not here. Sergeant Wa rcE N —Well, we cannot help it. What did Mr. O'Connell say in reference to that letter?- 1- le said that he thought that a fair case was made out for giving Mallow two Members, and he proposed that the letter should be referred to a committee, to inquire whether any change should be made in the plan with reference to that town, which was agreed to after some further observations. _ • LATE HOURS.

Her Majesty's ship Albion, 90, Captain Nicholas Lockyer, C. 8., was towed into the Sound on Monday, by the Confiance. Captain Sir William Symonds, Surveyor of the Navy, her talented •3ns t r uct or, was on board, and she at once proceeded on a short experimental trip, to try her sailing qualities. She stood across with the wind free; hauled on the wind, and they then got nine knots and a half out of her. In returning she made one or two tacks, when it fell calm • the sails were th en furled in goad style, and the steamer towed her in. We under stand the Surveyor was much pleased with her, and with the seaman-like manner in which she was managed by her officers and crew. Her Majesty's ship Vestal, '26, Captain Charles Talbot, with the Honourable R. Pakenham and suite on board, sailed on Tuesday for New York. The crew was paid advance of wages on the previous day. Her Majesty's sloop Larne, IS, Commander J. W. D. Bris bane, arrived on Sunday, from Sheerness. Her Majesty's troop- ship Resistance, Commander Charles J. E. Patey, arrived on Saturday last, from the Cove of Cork, and was towed into harbc.ur on Monday , by the Conflance, steam vessel, to refit. Her Majesty's brig Hyacinth, 18, Commodore Scott, has had her lower masts shortened, and is now quite ready for sea. The ship is waiting the arrival here of Mr. Macauley, a member of the Portuguese Slave Commission, who will take passage in her to Bona Vista, after which the ship will proceed to the West. Indies. Sir Wm. SyMonds, the Surveyor of the Navy, visited the Hyacinth - on Monday, and expressed a favour able.opinion-of the alterations which have been made in her spars. She was warped to her sailing moorings on Tuesday. • t Hor Majesty's steamer Alban, Lieut. J. Jeayes, arrived on Wednesday, from Portsmouth. Her Majesty's brigs Acorn and Persian, having been re ,paired, we, e undecked on Monday last. Her Majesty's ship Actaeon, 26, and the Ranger, 6, packet, .were taken ioto dot k on Wednesday ; the former to undergo some repairs, and the latter to be converted into a 10-gun brig, similar to the Alert and Star. Her Mai sty's ship, Druid, 44, is to be fitted as - a tempo rary coal-vessel. On Tuesday the Conliance towed her down to' the moorings lately occupied by the Caledonia. .the, Hamoaze, a new lighter, was launched ,on Wednesday last. Her bottom has been covered with Jeffery's patent com position, as a substitute for copper. Doce.Yaan.-=-Mr. Churchward, Foreman of Works, has been placed in tl,e same rank with Foreman of the Yard, with a similar salary of 250/. per annum. Twenty-five shipwright apprentices were entered in this establishment on Tuesday ; they were selected chiefly from the sons of old and deserving artisans and orphans. LATEST FROM CHINA. We have received by the overland mail letters from an in telligent friend at Hong-Kong, dated Sept. 26, from which we Make the following extracts:— The Driver steamer, Commander C. Hayes, arrived here from Chusan, on the 3d of September, and sailed again directly for Macao. Chus.in is considered much more healthy than Hong-Kong for a settlement', but it is too late now unless the Chinese refuse to pay thesransom,,which I apprehend they will not do; for they know the penalty-5,000,000 dollars are to be paid . next week at Canton. • The Admiral, Sir. W. Parker,•it is'said is going there to see it paid, and then re turns here, ant shortly after leaves for India. Two gentle men were upset. in a small boat—fortunately the Minden's jolly-boat picked them up ; neither of them could swim. Next day they sent off fifty dollars to be divided between six men, which gives eight to each man, and two additional to the coxswain. Assistant-Commissary General Foote, who had just arrived from England, died on the 2(1 of September Commissariat only commenced business on the pre vious day. Orders have just been issued that no more of the 55th are to be received on board the Minden. The medical men have declared the fever of Hong-Kong, to be the jangle fever of India, and the yellow fever of the West Indies combilted. Her Majesty's ship Spiteful arrived here on the 7th; Sept. The Cornwallis has lost upwards of 100 men since she left England. There had been received on board the Minden, hospital ship, about 600 patients in the year ending 30th Sept., 1843, 180 of this number have died. There have also been received on board '270 soldiers, 88 have died—remaining 35. The soldiers were buried by the Min den's boats at sea, without any medical or military officers, and it is a notorious fact, that since the Minden arrived at Hong- Kong, four months, not more than two visits have been made by military officers to their sick soldiers. The last, I think, was Captain Young, the new Commandant, who died two days afterwards, so that the whole responsibility has devolved upon the naval Surgeons, who have well and faithfully performed their duty to these poor forlorn and otherwise neglected men. Lieut. Hayes, of the 41st Native Infantry, whilst in a state of delirium and fever, put a pistol into his mouth and fired it off; he is still alive, but in a most wretched and mutilated condition. Mr. Hancorn, the Master of the Minden, died on the 12th of Septetrt•er, after a few hours illness, and was buried on the 13th, at twelve o'clock, by candle light, in the burying ground at Hong-Kong. There was a procession of ten or tweht' boats; Captain Quin, of the Minden, attended and all the officers that could be spared. They are about to erect a tomb or stone to his msmory, as he died universally regretted. H.M.S. Thalia, sailed for India on the 13th September. There are two Admiral's flags flying here, with ' the Minden, Semarang, Childers, Rattlesnake, Sapphire, Spiteful, Vixen, and two steamers. Every thing is exceed ingly dear, consequently, the merchants at Hong-Kong are dissatisfied with the state of trade. A report is in circulation that every patient on board the Minden cost 20s. .per day, and as half are soldiers who are to pay the Government. but 10d., thereby making an actual loss of 19s. 2 I. per day each, or about 1001. per day in all, the Admiral has determined to . send that ship to England. There are not more at present than sixty seamen and marines en board the Minden, and many of them are in a convalescent state ; twenty of these belong to the ship, reducing the casual sick to forty. These if neces sary might be accommodated on shore at a very trifling expense, when compared to the present expenditure. A court-martial was held on the 18th September onboard the Spiteful steamer, and the first engineer has been dismissed the service. The men of the 55th Regimen( are still dying off with fever, and I regret. to say the regiment is row reduced from 1,000 strong to 150. Property at Hong-Kong, is becoming of less value every day, in consequencevf the unhealthy state of the place." Mr. lIENN—Have you any notes of what you call further observations ?—I have read them. Witness continued to read from his notes the speech of Mr. O'Connell, the ma.. torial parts of which are as follow :—" There are many candidates for the Preservative Association. Gentlemen of the first fortune and of the highest rank are daily proposing to me that they should be named as candidates for it ; there will be no difficulty whatever in getting 100 gentlemen. I am speaking entirely by anticipation. We must keep within the letter and spirit of the law. I am not at present prepared, nor do I think it necessary, to open the scheme of the Preservative Association ; but I am working out my plan for the constitution of the Irish House of Com moos, when it shall be established by Act of Parliament, or by the exercise of the prerogative of the Crown. lam working slowly but surely. I am working for the Irish nation, and want to satisfy them with my progress. I will give way if any body will show me that I have taken a false step— the way to avoid it is to proceed gradually, and therefore I will confine myself to the appointment of Repeal Wardens." Were you present at the Association on the 29th of August, the following day ?—Yes. Now, will you look at your notes, and say how many of the traversers were present ?—I have none but Mr. O'Connell on my notes. Did Mr. O'Connell, upon that occasion, say anything on that part of the Queen's speech relative to her determination to maintain the union between England and Ireland? He said, A' It is now my duty -" Mr. HENN—Is that the beginning of his speech? Wit ness—lt is. Mr. HENN—Did you take full notes of what occurred at that meeting, and the one before it ?—I took a full nuts of various matters that occurred. _ Mr. HENN—Where is that note ? I have not a full note of all that occurred. If you will allow me I will explain. Mr. HENN—I V;0111(1 rather you would answer me. Did you take full notes of such portions as you thought material? —Yes. Have you those notes here?--Yes. Those are the short-hand notes ?—Yes. Mr. HENN (addressing the Court)— I respectfully submit that he is not at liberty to use those notes. Sergeant WARREN—Mr. Ilenn, my Lord, is under a mis concept ion. Mr. HENN—Pardon me, I am not. Mr. Justice CuAmeTox—What is the exact effect of what the witness has said? Mr. HENN—He said he did not take full notes of all that passed at that meeting, but only such portions as appeared to him to be material. I submit that he is not to be a judge of materiality, and that he must have the whole.proceedings on his notes in order to give evidence on any part. Sergeant WARREN—I will leave it to the Court. CHIEF JUSTICE—If the witness swears that he gives the substance of what was o spoken, according to the best of his skill and judgment, the Court will admit that evidence—other wise no note could be admissible that the witness was not able to swear was literatim et verbatim. Mr. HENN—We don't require liberating et verbatim ; but we reouire the substance of all that passed, and without the whole he is not entitled to give evidence of any part. Sergeant WARREN—That is certainly the most novel posi tion I ever heard asserted. Mr. Justice BURTON—Suppose that no note had been taken at all, but that a witness - - came to give evidence of certain things he heard said, would nut that be admissable although he might not waled every word? Mr. Justice CRAMPToti-Aye, or every sentence ? Mr. Justice BURTON—If the witness was present at a time when particular expressions were made use of by particular persons. surely that would still be evidence? ; Mr. HENN—That would b e a very diff eren t thing, for in that case we might exami ne hi s memor but, -if -a- person goes deputed, ast he witness ann ounce d h e was, by the Govern ment, and takes notes, he ought t o b e a bl e t o produce them— not garbled vittraets.. We are entitled to the whole of what passed at that meeticg, and not t o par t. Sergeant WARREN—The witness has said that he took a full note. Mr. HENN—He has said that he toak notes of such portions as he thought material. Sergeant WARREN (to witness)---Have you taken a note , to the best of your skill and judgme n t, o f Jr.A O'Connell's s p eech on that occasion?— I have. I believe I have the en tire. I can always tell when I have taken a • thing consecuti vel y , and when Ihave taken'oily the heads of the subject; t he Govern ment accepted my services on one condition. Mr. HENN—ltiow, don't make a speech. I • object , my Lord, to this witness going on. He swears he did not take all of the speech. taken a full note. Sergeant - WARREN—If I do not mistake, he swore he had 31r. 14EN N—Pardon me-- again. Mr. O'CoNNELL—Let Sergeant Warren ask the question Sergeant WARREN (to witness)—Have you take n the entire of that speech ?—I know 1 have, because it's all consecutive. Mr. HENN—AII consecutive! Witness—l can always tell when I have taken only a branch of a speech. Witness then took up a bundle of notes. Mr. HENN—Now, tell me are those full notes, or loose ab stracts, in them ?—I cannot depose to a fact of which I know nothing.—(Boars of Laughter.) The witness, in reply to Sergeant WARREN, said I have not as yet seen my notes at all. so that there may be a blank in them, or there may not be a blank in them. Sergeant WARREN—Look at your note-book, and say- if you have taken an entire note of Mr. O'Connell's speech on that occasion or not? (The witness looked at his note-book for some time and said)'--1 don't think I have a full note of all that occurred that-day ;tut I have taken such a note as enables me to give a description of it. Sergeant WARREN—I• submit, my Lord, we are entitled to have this evidence, and it will then be for the jury to say how they will receive it. Judge PERRIN—Did you observe the last answer the witness has given?—lle says he did not take a full note of the speech,but such a note as would enable him to give a description. Mr. HENN—And I submit that is not evidence, 'because he cannot say anyth:ng except what is in his notes, and he admits he did not take a full note of the speech. • • CHIEF JUSTICE—Let us take down his answer corrected, and see what it is. 'What is your answer, Mr.-Rose ?—I have taken a full note of all that I co nsidered important and ma terial in that speech ; for instance , I wil l gi v e you, my Lords, an example of the sort of notes 1 took. W hen I came to a passage in the speech which I cons ider ed material I took it "down ; for instance, there is a passage in the s pe ec h o f M r. O'Connell, when speaking of the Union, where he states that trade and manufactures had fallen off greatly in consequence of the blighting effects of the union. I considered that ma terial, and took it down. CoussEt—The falling off of trade and mauifacture is rather material certainly for this country. Judge CRAMPTON—If I understood you correctly, your' an swer is this—you took a portion, or part, of the speech; ver batim, and other portions of it yon made a summary of ? Yes, my Lord, that's it exactly. n Judge CRAMPTON—Then, you can't give th e wor d s o f t h e portion an o k f ly w c h o a nf what lescsallletahnensoutpor do I pretend t o d o so.ary part of the sp eec h, can you ? CHIEF JUSTICE—In the summary which you took down, I suppose you put down a catch-word, did you 7 -4 will give you an explanation of the manner in which I took the notes. When Mr. O'Connell came to particular Passag es , I t oo k u p the words he uttered; for instance, lie says here, " There is another bill of indictment against the Government, and he (Mr. O'C.) also read a letter from Smyth O'Brien. -He (Mr. O'Connell) said the Welch committed crimes and they were favoured with an inquiry ; the Irish committed no crimes, and were, on that account, denied their rights." CHIEF JUSTICE—WeII, Sir ?--Those are what I call heads, or the summary of two or three sentences, but I did not take the precise words uttered on the occasion. CHIEF JUSTICE—WiII you take on yourself to swear, to the best of your skill and judgment, that what you did take down contains the substance of what was spoken on that occasion ? It contains the substance of what was spoken, certainly. Mr. HENN—If I understand you right you have taken a verbatim note of what you thought to be material in the speech, and a summary of the. remainder of the proceedings. .Now, will you take on Yourself to swear, that m.the summary you have taken you have correctly taken the . substance of what was said ? Why the topics—(the end of the sentence was lost, is the witness spoke so low). Mr. O'CONNELL-3Raise your voice, ; the end of your directed at once to the respective boroughs. He had taken the population of the Reform Bill as the basis of his plan. He ( Mr. O'Connell) was anxious that men of wealth and station should join them (the Repealers). The time was come when Ireland could no longer be governed for or by a faction. England had given them emancipation in 1829, but not equality. With re spect to the law of landlord and tenant, it had been said by Chief Justice Pennefather that the nature and intent of the Act of Parliament was only in favour of the landlord to enforce his rights. The law never had the interest of the tenant in contemplation at all. These were the words of a Tory „Lord Chief Justice.—(Laughter throughout the Court.) Cross-examination resumed by Mr. Sergeant WARREN— Did you attend the meeting at Loughrea ?—Yes. State en what day that meeting took place ?—On September the 10th. Who were present at that meeting ?—Mr. O'Connell, Mr. Steele, Dr. Gray, and Mr. Barrett. Have you a note of Mr. O'Connell's speech at that meeting? —I have. Read it. Mr. HENN, traversers' counsel—ls this a note you took yourself, and not a copy of another's report?—Yes. Mr. Sergeant WARREN—Read it. "Mr. O'Connell said he regretted that the state of the weather would compel him to narrow his expressions of gratitude to the smallest space. They all knew there was high authority for saying that it rained on the just as well as on the un just. He would wish to give before them the outpourings of his heart at the splendid spectacle of that day. Connaught was doing well. He had around him that day enough of physical force to achieve the greatest revolution. But let them as semble peaceably, and Ireland would be again a nation." Sergeant WARREN —Did you form an estimate of the num bers that attended the Lourghrea meeting?—Yes, I did. Sergeant WARREN—How many persons, or about how many, were present, do you think ?—I should say about twelve thou sand. I was present at a public dinner on the evening of the same day. If I said that Mr. Barrett was at the meeting, I said so inadvertently, and I took the first opportunity to correct my error. Mr. Barrett was at the dinner. Sergeant WARREN—State the names of such of the tra versers as were at the dinner ?—Mr. O'Connell was there, and so too were Mr. Steele, Mr. Barrett, and Dr. Gray. I heard Mr O'Connell speak at the dinner, and have a note of his speech on that occasion. Are you acquainted with the appearances of the traversers ? —I am. Sergeant WARREN—Point them out, if you please. The witness turned round, and, after some hesitation, said— " I only see Mr. O'Connell, Dr. Gray, Mr. Ray, and the Rev. Mr. Tierney." Sergeant WARREN—Look round and try if you can identify any more of them ? Oh ! yes, I see Mr. John O'Connell. Sergeant WARREN—The traversers ought to be together ; this difficulty on the part of the witness arises, my Lords, from the circumstance of the traversers not being all here. Mr. WHITESIDE—I am rather inclined to think it results from the circumstance of their not having been all there ! (Laughter.) The Learned Counsel alluded to Loughrea. COURT —Do the Counsel for the traversers admit that Mr. Duffy was at the Loughrea dinner? Mr. WHITESIDE—I do not admit that Mr. Duffy was at any meeting, except, perhaps, an Association meeting. Mr. M'Doisouon-1 admit that Mr. Barrett was at the dinner, but not at the meeting. Mr. O'CoN NELL—The witness did not say he saw Barrett at the meeting; hut he said he was at the dinner. Mr. FITZGIBBON— Unless there be an attempt to dispute identity, we will readily concede the fact of any of the traver sere having been at any meeting, which, in point of fact, they did really attend. Sergeant WARREN—You said you had a note of Mr. O'Con nell's speech at the dinner of Loughrea; pray be so good as to read it.—(The witness here read from his note-book his note of Mr. O'Connell's speech on the occasion in question. The speech commenced with a denunciation of the Tories for having put into the mouth of the Sovereign a speech, in the sentiments of which she did not herself concur, for the paltry purpose of keeping themselves another year in office. He expressed a hope that what he uttered might reach the ears of her Majesty, and that she would learn that from the accession of her family to the Throne up to the present day justice had never been done to this country. ) Witness—Then, my Lords, Mr O'Connell proceeded to denounce George the First, George the Second, George the Third, and George the Fourth ; I have only a topical note of the proceedings just there, and, consequently, am unable to give his express words ; I only know that he denounced them. Sergeant WARREN—Go on with the reading of your notes of Mr. O'Connell's speech. The witness complied, and read his note, the substance of which was, that the Irish people had ever been distinguished for their loyalty and allegiance to their Sovereign, and they would never cease to be so distinguished, for that their loyalty was— " True as the dial to the sun, Although it be not shined upon." That the Government had commenced by threatening civil war upon the Repeaters, but that the people had not crouched to that threat, and that the menace, consequently, would not be repeated ; that the Government had spent a great portion of the session in forging an Arms Bill; and that he (Mr. O'Connell) would get his arms branded in perpetual proof of the insolence and tyranny of the Saxon; that the Irish people, if they were unanimous and did not vio late any law, must succeed in obtaining their liberties ; and that they ought to humble themselves before Providence for the purpose of imploring that the virtue of perseverance might be vouchsafed to them, and that wisdom might be granted to their leaders to conduct them in the paths of peace and tranquillity into the temple of genuine and rational liberty, which was fonnded upon religion Red morality. " I tell the Times that those meetings are the safety-valves through which the boiling wrongs of the national soul" (witness remarks) ' I have lost the next word after soul, but I suppose it was evaporate') " into the certainty of success ; they raise in them (the people) a Divine hope that the days of the woes of Ireland will not last for ever." The witness continued to read the speech of Mr. O'Connell at length in nearly the same terms as previously published, until he came to the following passage :—" Ireland wants no monarchy." Mr. O'CONNELL, who was sitting, as on the previous day, at the table, immediately under the witness's chair, here said, with the appearance of much astonishment, "No monarchy?" .--I would make Mr. O'Connell's meaning more clear if I were to write out another translation from my notes ; but this is a literal translation of what he said. Mr. O'Connell did not mean to say that Ireland required no monarch, for he says afterwards, " To the Sovereign we are attached by the most dutiful allegiance." This part of the witness's evidence and explanation were very confused, and rather in an under tone, so as to render it difficult in the gallery to catch his precise words. Mr. Sergeant WARREN—Turn to the meeting at the Corn Exchange on the 13th of September; look at your notes of that day's proceedings, and say which of the traversers were there? —Am I to give you an answer founded on my own observa tion, or from what I find on my notes. Mr. Sergeant WARREN—You are not bound to omit any names, if from your own knowledge you can speak positively of persons having been present, although you do not find their names on your notes?—Mr. O'Connell was there. His name is the only one on my notes; but I know Mr. John O'Connell and Mr. Ray were there. Sergeant WARREN—Refer to Mr. O'Connell's speech in presenting the draft of the address to the fellow-subjects of the Crown in every part of the world.—The witness then pro ceeded to read the speech, after which he said he had notes un connected, of the points in that address, and he read several disjointed passages, among which were the following ; " They say that the English Judges are better than .ours-1 deny, it." " Such a judgment as that of the English Judges, tespecting the Presbyterian marriages, never was given on this side of a hot place."—(Laughter.) When that speech was concluded what was done ?—Mr. O'Connell moved the adoption of an address to the inhabitants of all the countries subject to the British Crown, and that that address be placarded wherever the British Crown had power. ' You mentioned yesterday that you had received a manifold copy of that address ?—I did. Now read it.—The witness took up the manifold copy and had read about six lines of it, when be was desired to read the printed copy of the address, as it would be more easily perused. When the witness had read as far as the fifth article of the address, he appeared to be very weak—when The CHIEF JUSTICE said, this gentleman seems very much exhausted. Witness—l will be better in a few momenta, my Lord. Judge CRAMPTON—Perhaps it would be better for the Clerk of the Crown to finish the reading of the address. The address was then handed to the Clerk of the Crown, who concluded the reading of the document. Here the Court adjourned. On again meeting The direct examination of the witness was resumed. By Sergeant WARREN— Was at the Clifton meeting; it took place on the 17th of September ; some of the traversers (Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Steele) were present ; does not remember any one else. A Juror—Only the two ? Witness—Only the two. Remembers Mr. Dillon Browne was there; heard him speak. ( Read his speech from his notes. ) He said the men of Connemara had actea bravely in rallying at this meeting ; that if not so numerous as in other places, they were few, but brave. He wished Peel and Wellington were there to see their mountain cavalry ; and he would be glad to know if the heavy dragoons could follow them through the mountains. 'they assembled that day to show their strength, not to violate the law ; they were resolved not to sully their conscience at the will of any despot. What he had said of Mr. Darcy was wafted on the wings of the press to the ears of that gentleman. Sergeant WARREN—Did you take a note of what Mr. O'Con nell said on that occasion ? Yes. Sergeant WARREN—WiII you read it?—The witness then com menced reading Mr. O'Connell's speech at the meeting. He commenced by saying that the present was the most transcend ant meeting he had ever seen—that he was now making an ex periment, and he wanted to know whether they were not as bravo as the rest of Ireland—whether Connaught was not as honest and as faithful as the other three provinces. —(Cries of "We are, we are.") Whether they did not hate Saxon tyranny as much as any other portion ?—( Cries of " We do more so.") All he wanted was, Ireland for the Irish, as France for the French, England for the English, and Scot land for the Scotch. The Irish were as brave and more moral, than any other nation in the world. '1 he battle of Ireland was to be a peaceable battle, and he would keep them out of danger. They should proceed in a constitutional way, but if he wanted them they would come again. He wanted that every person should pay his own clergyman ; the Pro testants could then have what they liked for their own church, and the more they paid the bettor. The struggle for emanci pation was one for the advantage of the rich ; but Repeal would bring physical prosperity to the people. They were to oast tlo violence. He came to teach them another ippon from that— that peace, order. and obedience to the law, stern the means by which they would wrest everything from ilielmseraies. If they had the Repeal, prosperity would flow in uposlkisem, and would they not give a shilling a-year for this objeitd, Very sergeant paid a shilling to each recruit, to enlist s,tui entrassaro ; but Ise, did not want to entrap them, buthe told them bawd shouldbe for the Irish. He again repeated that Do violence was to be used. His motto was—" Whoever committed a °rime gave strength to the enemy." He could not be doing anything was bad when he had the support and countenance of the saite n l clergy of the people, and their venerated arc e liblshop . s. that be they found him possessed of such support, th notation did that nations have fallen," &c. Ese Were you at the dinner on that must be doing some good. Then came the q y " The sir. Sergeant WA RS day ?--I was. Mr. HENN—Then you did not take a full note of the com ments he made ?—No, I did not. Mr. HENN—Then, can you supply from memory the sub stance of the comments which he made use of ?—Yes. I would be enabled to do so on referring to my notes. Mr. HENN—Did you not swear, Sir, five minutes ago that you could not give the comments?—No, I did not. Mr. HENN—You swore you could not depose to the sub stance of the comments most assuredly ?—ln general I can swear to the substance, but with reference to passages of the comments I do not pretend to give the precise words that were used by Mr. O'Connell. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said there was a preliminary question to be settled, and on which he was entitled to the judgment of the Court before the discussion went further. If the witness said he could give the substance of the comments, or the language of Mr. O'Connell on that occasion, they had a right to get it from him by reference to his book and memory. If the witness was not able to depose to all that was said on that occasion from beginning to end, it ought not to be con tended that he could not state such portions of the speech as he could depose to fully, and to give the portion of which he took the substance. It was a new proposition to say so, and one that he ventured to assert was not to be found in any law book. They had a right to get from Mr. Ross any portion of what Mr. O'Connell did say, and then let the gentlemen on the other side get the remainder from him if they pleased, and not presume that they (the Crown) could not get what they really were entitled to, and could give in evidence. Mr. HENN—Why, strictly speaking, you could not use the notes taken by the witness at all, except to refresh his memory ; if there was a written publication given in evidence they might read a portion of it, and it would be then for us to use the re mainder of it ; but when a witness takes a partial note of pro ceedings, he is not entitled to use it. By the strict rule the witness could examine his notes to refresh his memory, and he must rely on that then- Judge CaAstrroN—l think you confine your objection to the short summary taken of the speech by the witness, or do you , extend it to the words that he is really able to swear to ? Mr. HENN—I object to his entire evidence, unless he has taken a full note of all that passed, and I therefore submit his evidence cannot be received. Judge CRAMPTON—I understand ; that is quite sufficient. CIIIEF JUSTICE—We will admit the evidence, considering that we are acting in conformity with the well-known principles of the law. Sergeant WARREN—Proceed, and state as fully as you can, from your notes, the speech of Mr. O'Connell ; and when you come to the portions which you have not taken fully, or where your notes are imperfect, state so. The witness proceeded to read the speech of Mr. O'Connell for a few minutes, and then, ad dressing the Court, said, "Now, my Lords, I have come to the point at which my notes are cot so full—shall I read them ?" Mr. Justice CRAMPTON—DO you object, Mr. Henn? Mr. HENN—If the witness can give the substance and mean ing we do not, my Lord. We call upon him to go on. The witness then proceeded to read—" The Union was not a compact or agreement. It is not valid. But it is said, that although it was carried by the foulest and most atrocious means, that it has worked well for Ireland. I deny th•+t. From the Declaration of Independence, in the year 1782, up to the year 1799, there never was a country progressed more rapidly, and I have the authority of Lord Clare to that effect. Before Emancipation, no man spoke of repeal but myself ; I always looked upon the Relief Bill only as the means to an end—but a step to repeal— and lest that should happen, which has since happened, namely, that I should be accused of suppressing from tise people of England my intention ultimately to seek for it, I always de clared my determination. In my address to the electors of Clare, in the year 1828, a contest which was of such import ance in effecting Catholic emancipation, I distinctly put it forward as an inducement to the electors to vote for me, and I promised that if I obtained a seat in Parliament I would bring the measure before the house. I have now, for the last time, vindicated myself from the charge of concealing my intention, and I will read an extract from Mr. O'Driscoll's book, dedi cated to the Marquis of Lansdowne." The witness then said he had not taken a note of the extract. Mr. HENN—Are you able, from memory, to give the sub stance of that extract ?—I am not. Witness then proceeded to read the remainder of Mr. O'Connell's speech, where he stated that from the year 1800 to 1828 the British Constitution was only in existence in Ireland during an interval of five years, and stated Mr. O'Connell referred to various Acts of Parlia ment passed during that time. Mr. HENN—Are you able from memory to supply the sub stance of what was said?—No. Mr. HEN understood you to say you could?—Mr. O'Connell quoted several Acts. Sergeant WA RREN, for the Crown, submitted these inter ruptions ought not to be allowed. •Vitness proceeded to read the portion of Mr. O'Connell's speech, where he relied on the vast falling off in the trade of Ireland. " There were more cattle sold at Balliiiasloe before the Union than since. There was not one head of cattle ex ported then for every 800 exported now. The Irish people consumed them, and did not export food. He took the trou ble to look over Lord Brougham's speeches, and Mr. O'Con nell referred to several passages. Also the report of the Poor law Commissioners—number of destitute poor in Ireland— comparative number of Protestant and Roman Catholics--that the Welsh, who committed crime, were much better treated than the Irish, who committed none. He proceeded to give a summary of the conduct of Ministers during the last session of Parliament, which closed with a speech of an extraordinary nature, and said he was greatly pleased with the Morning Chronicle, which he was not generally in the habit of being from the way in which it described the speech. It stated the speech was the very essence of stupidity or impudence, he forgot which, for his part, he thought it contained both. He would not banish the impudence from the stupidity, or the stupidity from the impu dence, but rather have laoth combined. He denied any inten 'ion of speaking disparagingly of the Queen. He separated her acts from those of her Ministers. Kings condescended to scold and Queens to speak hastily of him. He called a Minis terial speech base, bloody, and brutal, and he never retracted what he had said. The present was a Alinisterial speech. They could not help giving it utterance. But he blamed the Minis ters for not having advised the speech to be given by commis mission, and not have compelled her Majesty to speak it. But she could have expected no better from them. At the very commencement of her reign the vilest insinuations issued from their villainous press. A dropsical complaint of one of :the ladies of her Court gave rise to statements which out raged every feeling dear to a child or woman, and which he would not venture to repeat in the presence he was in. Did they not inflame the mind of the English public, until a mis creant thought he would be doing a good act to shoot the Queen? He loved the Queen, the object of his kindliest affections, an d, consequent l y, with his station, felt towards her the tenderness of a parent. He thought it was cruel towards the people of Ireland to disturb the affection they entertained, by making the Queen utter this speech, and make them be lieve they never trusted the English, but were deceived. If they had given the speech by Commission, he would not blame them ; but all should recollect this was not the speech of the Queen, but the Ministers ; but there was nothing in the speech to retard, on the contrary, it should rather stimulate their ex ertions. They had now the additional motive to rescue their beloved Queen from the hands of those Ministers. He be lieved if it had not pleased God to give her a family, her life was not safe among them. The Queen's family had this peculiar merit, that they stopped the irregular ambition of one who it was frightful to think would corns to the throne. Nature had placed their innocence as a barrier against the worst calamity that could be inflicted on the nation. Oh ! thank Heaven, there is that security against the worst evil that could possibly happen. We have a double motive for our exertions—to rescue the Queen from those miscreants, and our country from'tyranny. We have the two highest motives that can give energy to human action, love of country and al legiance to a woman. Rally, then, with me, and burrs for the Queen . . I now come to the Ministers' speech, and Peel, Wel-. lington, Stanley, and Graham. What a scene for the con queror of Waterloo, with the Queen in his hands, to makesuch a speech to Parliament. She is made to whine out something half-piteous and half-imploring about the seal of her subjects. The Queen is made to say, I have done something for the good of the Church, about being unable to do more, and leaving the rest to the zeal 'of her subjects. The Duke of Wellington, if poor Napoleon had been alive to witness his defeat (then fol lowed some references to the Church of Scotland and the disturbances in Wales). It is my opinion that the Legislative Union is inconsistent with any good object whatever—that instead of being essential to the strength and stability of the empire, it tends to produce weakness and decay—that instead of being a bond of connexion between the two countries, it is the very thing which puts the continued connexion in jeopardy. Circumstanced as Ireland is, I am perfectly convinced that if the union is not repealed by legal and constitutional means, and above all, if it does not take place during mv life-time, the result willhe a san guinary struggle for perpetual separation, and God forbid that any unjustifiable means should be used. Ido not say this is a natural or unavoidable result; all I say is, while I live I hope my countrymen will not despair. As long as I live, at least, I will struggle legitimately and constitutionally ; and I bequeath do -those who follow me their own course of proceeding. He concluded by a motion for a committee to prepare an address to be placed before the Queen and all her subjects. Sergeant WA R neN—Was the motion agreed to ?—Yes. Have you taken a memorandum of any approbation or disap probation of any part of that speech ?—No. I was present at a meeting of the Association on the 4th of September. Mr. O'Connell, Mr. Ray, Mr. John O'Connell, and Mr. Steele,;were present. Mr. O'Connell spoke at the meeting. The witness then commenced reading his note of what Mr. O'Connell spoke on that occasion. He commenced by referring to the meeting which was to take place at Clontarf on the Bth of October and to the prospects of success for the repeal. He then referred to the Queen s Speech, and the effect which it produced on the Irish mind. The Ministers dared not to make that speech till the end of the session, when it could best be ex posed to view. A weak and miserable Ministry was incapable of resorting to any other advice. He congratulated the people en the increase of the repeal feeling among them, and also on the symptoms that were apparent of a better temper among the high-flying Orangemen of the North. He mentioned she surprise he felt at seeing a sensible letter with the name of Londonderry attached to it. He denied that the Speech from the 'Throne was the personal speech of the Sovereign—it was not a personal speech at all ; it was no more the Queen's speech than it was his (Mr. O'Connell's), and he was not very likely to pronounce a speech of that kind. The suggestion contained in that Speech was grossly disloyal ; it was disloyal to represent the Queen to the people of Ireland as hostile to the ir liberty. He then called attention to the letter in the Morning Chronicle, signed " One Who Whistled at the Plough," from which he read extracts. He pointed out the injury done to the Reform cause in England by the physical-force doctrine of the Chartists, and warned the people strongly against violence of any kind. He said the resolution for the non-consumption of exciseable articles was not yet'proposed ; it was saved for a great emergency. He would shrink from nothing. He announced his intentian of attending meetings at Loughrea and C'onne mara in the following week, where he would defy the spies and informers of England to produce confusion. He then pro ceeded to detail his plan of the management of the fran chise of the Irish Parliament. He would arrange them in such a manner that if the Queen chose to issue; writs for the assembling of the Irish Parliament in six weeks, they might be V . , ~. n z _ ._ . „2_,,,,,_4 7„,,,,. ~.._ .....__ , ,,_...... ~,..: , 4 Estate to the fury who were the traversers pres s ld' dinner. —Mr. 0 Connell, Mr. J. O'Connell, Dr. Grayerlut ..,- Mr. Barrett. , , , Look at your n o t es ?—Oh, no, J. O'Connell was not nt I was thinking of M u ll ag h mas t me eting, when Mr. J. 7;iCt nell was in the chair. Look to your notes of the Clifden meeting?—There were present at the Clifden meeting Mr. O'Connell, Mr. Steele, and Dr. Gray. I don't remember that there were any other of the traversers. By a juror—You said that Mr. Barrett was present ?•—I was confounding this meeting with that of Mullsghmast; the only persons present at this (the Clifden) meeting were—Mr. O'Connell, Dr. Gray, and Mr. Steele. Have you a note of Dr. Gray's speech on that occasioia ?-- Yes. Dr. Gray in answer to the toast said— Have you a note of the toasts preceding that ?—No ; I have no note of the loyal toasts. Dr. Gray, in answer to the toast of the people, said—" That formerly the aristocracy tyrannised over the people, but the people were now showing the bearing of men, determined to be free—that he was much struck with the difference in the bearing of the people then and that exhi bited by them some two years before, when he had visited that place. Let their conduct be firm, and let them flinch before ne tyrant landlord, and where was the man that would dare to eject them from their holdings because they were repeaters ? Let them observe peace, order, and tranquillity, and they would finally triumph. Mr. Sergeant WARREN—Have you a note of Mr. O'Con nell's speech on that occasion ?—Yes. Read it.—( The witness here proceeded to read the speech, which commenced with expressions of delight on the part of Mr. O'Connell at the majestic sight which was presented on that occasion. He said that Leinster, part of Ulster, Mune ster, had done their duty, and now Connaught was at its post: There was then (said the witness) a sentence about virtue .. and religious sentiment which I was not able to catch. The speech then went on to refer to the prosperity of Ireland un der a domestic legislature. He (Mr. O'Connell) might be asked why, when having so much physical force around him, he did not make use of of it? He replied that he would use it, but not abuse it. Its use was legal and moral combination. There are then, said the witness, the words " poetical imagery" —(Laughter)—but I have not the whole sentence. The words are not mine, but Mr. O'Connell's. The speech went on to express Mr. O'Connell's delight at seeing the thousands and hundreds of thousands that poured out of every valley to the meeting. They would use no violence—they would reserve their strength till they were attacked. But the Government would not attack them ; the English Government said they would not attack them. To that statement he would reply, " Thank you for nothing, says the gallipot.”--(Laughter. They could not catch an,old bird with chaff — (Laugh ter ) —and they would not catch an old lawyer with chaff.—(Laughter.) (The witness here stated that a sentence followed, which he was unable to catch, and then proceeded.) Mr. O'Connell then alluded to the reports that had appeared in the news papers of the first meeting of the Arbitration Courts, Dr. Gray in the chair, and the announcement that they would meet every Friday after. He stated his conviction that they would work well, and hoped that hereafter he should be able to apply the principle on a more extensive scale, so that before long he should deprive the principal Courts of half their busi ness. He would play a game that should checkmate the Go vernment in time. It might be necessary to go slowly to work, and that the people of Ireland should continue their confidence in him, but it was better to go slow and sure, than fast and uncertain. In allusion to some opinions that had been expressed in the newspapers, he said he never took advice on matters of law from the newspapers ; he relied on them for matters of fact only. No country in the world had an abler or more' honest press than Ireland ; and it was a great proof that they were in the right road, when they found so much talent in the press in listed on their side ; but he could not take the law from them. He had more projects in his head for checkmating the Govern ment, but he should not speak of them. He said further, that the English Government had done nothing to conciliate Ireland. They had offered nothing as a remedy of their grievances but a miserable compromise, giving them what children called the smallest half. At present his monster meetings were almost done ; there were not more than seven or eight to be held. He remarked on the conduct of the people at those meetings which had been held, and the extract concluded by an eulogiuta of the moral and religious character of the people of Ireland. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL —Did you make any calculation of the number of persons at the meeting at Clifden ?—I did. What number attended?—Five or six thousand. Were you present at the meeting of the Association at the Corn Exchange, on the 27th September ?—I was. Which of the traverser! did you see there ?—Allow me to look at my notes. I never was a day without seeing some of them. I only ask you as to that particular day.—Dr. Gray, Mr.; O'Connell and Mr. Ray. . , . Did Dr. Gray make any remarks on that occasion?--Hedid: Have you a copy of that report read by him , or do you brow what was the subject of it ?—lt was with respect to the Arbri tation Courts. Is there among these documents (handing them in) a copy of the report read by Dr. Gray 7-1 have not a copy of that report. Were you furnished with copies of any documents on that occasion connected with the Arbitration Courts?—Yes. Have the goodness to read them. Witness then read one of the documents. It was an un filled up notice that an Arbitration Court had been appointed for the district of --, and that Mr. hod been appointed to furnish every information that might be required. It was signed, Thomas Ray, and printed by Mr. Brown, 36, Nassau street. Have you any other document connected with the Arbitra tion Courts ?—Yes ; but not on that day. Other documents were handed to witness, and from them he selected one which was read by the officer of the Court. It was headed by a harp and crown, and ran thus ;—" These pre sents ate to testify that thelLoyal National Repeal Association has perfect confidence and perfect reliance on the ability of Mr. --, as Arbitrator, to dispose of, adjudicate, and settle, any disputes that may arise in the said district of --." Sergeant WARREW—Have you any other documents respect ing Arbitration Courts, which you received that same day?—s At the meeting of the Repeal Association, which was held on the 16th of October, I got a document which purports to be a copy of the: rules and regulations to be observed by arbitrators, and also by persons in various districts of the country who wish to submit their disputes to arbitrators. Sergeant WARREN—Read it. The witness, who appeared to be very much exhausted, handed the document to the Clerk of the Crown, who read it. It was as follows : " RULES TO BE OBSERVED by ARBITRATORS IN DISTRICTS, THE PEOPLE WHEREOF MAY CHOOSE TO SUBMIT TURIN, DISPUTES TO ARBITRATION. TOWERS OF ARBITRATORS. " I. Arbitrators will remember that they derive their legal power to adjudicate in any given case, solely from the consent of the disputing parties, to submit their disputes to the arbitra tion and award of the arbitrators, and will therefore be careful never to enter on any case, until both parties have consented to submit the cause of dispute to their decision. This con sent should, in general, be had in writing, and the name of the ar bitrators, RR well as the cause of dispute, should be stated therein. The consent (which is legally called a deed of sub mission) should then be signed by both parties in presence of a witness. In trivial cases, a verbal consent, in the presence of a witness, will suffice; but, as in the case of a written consent, the arbitrators should be named by the disputing parties. " ll.—lt is Mega/ and an indictable offence for arbitrators to administer an oath. In hearing cases they will therefore not only not administer an oath themselves, but they will not permit the disputing parties or their witnesses, or any of them, to take an oath, or use such asseverations as may be deemed or con strued into an oath. Neither ought the arbitrators to take any form of an oath themselves. " IlL—Arbitrators may, when duly nominated by both the disputing parties, decide and adjudicate in all cases ex cept such as are called felonies, as theft, forgery, passing base coin, and such like. " The cases that more properly belong to the province of arbitrators are such as hitherto chiefly formed the subjects of expensive litigation in the magisterial and other Courts. Streit as wages, debts of all kinds, disputes between employers and the employed—including servants, labourers, and mechanics-- trespass, disputes concerning meanings—claims on foot of al leged damage sustained in any mode whatever, whether by breach of contract, or by assault and battery. In cases of as sault, the complainant mast seek for the recovery of damage sustained as the result of the assault committed, and the arbitra tors may award to the injured party any amount of pecuniary damages that they may them a just recompense. " IV.—Arbitrators are not limited as to the extent of their jurisdiction as are Justices of the Peace and Assistant Bar risters. They may, when duly nominated, adjudicate in cases involving any amount of property. In all cues, however, over '2Ol. a stamp will be necessary to render the consent (or deed of submission) an award legal ; but in all cases under that sum, the consent and award require no stamp to render them binding in law. The ordinary sche dule of stamp duties, to be had at the office of every vender of stamps, will show the amount of stamp duty required in each case, amounting to, or exceeding 201 . , and the arbitra tors should direct the disputing parties to procure same, and the cost of same should be allowed, in making up the award, to the successful party. " ORDER OF PROCEEDINGS. " V.—The form of notice from the plaintiff to the defendant, should be signed by the plaintiff, and the notification appended thereto, signifying the willingness of the arbitrators to act, if duly nominated, should be signed by some oste of the arbitra tors of the district. " Vl.—After the parties have come to the plate of hold ing the arbitration, and before the plaintiff be allowed to make his statement, the arbitrators should ascertaln whether both parties be present. If they be not, the hear ing must be postponed. But if both parties be present, the arbitrators will inquire if they mutually consent to submit the cause in dispute to their arbitration. Should both con sent, then the arbitrators will follow the directions given in Rule No. I. Should they, however, not consent, the arbitrators will, on no account, proceed any further with the case. " Vll.—The parties having indifferently chosen an 4 named the arbitrators, and consented to abide by their decision and award, the arbitrators will proceed to bear the case in manner following : —The plaintiff should be called on to state his case, and having done so, he may be exa mined by the arbitrators, and cross-examined by the defendant. The witnesses for the plaintiff to be then called, and res p ec tively examined by the arbitrators and cross -examined by the - defendant. The case for the plaintif having closed, the defendant should then be called upon to make his statement, and having been examined by the arbitrators, and cross-examined by the plaintiff, bis witnesses aro to be called, and a similar course pursued to that directed in the cue of the plaintiff's witnesses, The case on both sides havia closed, the arbitrators will proceed to mak e t heir award, 'able') must in all cases be in writing, and be signed by the arbitrators named by the disputing parties, and by none others, save the Secretary, who must sign as witness. Whew so signed, the award should be publicly read by the Chairman. " Note.—ln all cases of arbitration, the wife or child of either party may be examined; and a witness may be called a second lime should the arbitrators think fit. It may be ad visable, for the purpose of eliciting truth, that the witnesses on both sides should be sent out of the room until required for examination. " Vlll—The disputing parties, or either of them, should be allowed to have the aid of professional men it they choose. In such case the professional agent will state the case, and ex amine and cress-examine witnesses, instead of the party litigant, as stated in Rule VII. " IX.—Should the arbitrators find a difficulty in cominngforto a decision in any case, a reasonable time may be e s t e 'Lice wbere making the award ; but it is advisable that, n "GENERAL 'LVOV. h if et it rin p i r . aeticable, the award be made immediately s , se m open to the public; " X. The arbitrators should s'i'rs llm :nifestation of approval or a,od it is deemed advisable thart audience,a be prohibited, as ce nt disapproval by the suitor 9 . , s Quieted to disturb the proceedings. 11 cause the secretary to make an " %.1.
