A BELIEVER IN THE CLAIMANT,

At • magniftoent meeting of Tichbornites and Magna
Chartists which save Honsely's organ, was held on
Monday at Doughty Hall, which literally overflowed with
man &rables,* ladies and gentlemen,
Mr. Lewingdon, of Poole, made • beautiful speech.,
animated by • most religious spirit; he gave an account
of an interview which he recently had with one of the
Tichborne jurymen, in which some of the interior
horrors and guilt of the jury-box were unv.thd. Dickies,
the foreman. was • foe from the very first, and known to
the prosecution to be in. On the Friday before the
verdict, a bribe was premised by • solicitor from the
Treasury to the jury collectively, who 'gambled in the
hatch room of the Court on the requisition at Dickies,
by whom it was prooceed that they should give their
verdict of guilty without leaving the box; but moss of
the jury stugested that, " for the sake of ap,pearavecuo.
It would be better to retire for &short tiros no j
solemnly averred that the paper which censti=ml36l".
Kensaly, was bellied ready cut and dry to the foreman :
was never ammunimted by him to the rest of the
jraort and wm handed by Nelda@ straight to the Chief
Juitice, by whom it tree read with sparkling eras and
unconcealed delight. This is what we always suspected,
but never knew till now ; and we believe that the Chiefs
half brother, or son, or nephew, or whatever he is, Mr. F.
: Cockburn, is the pence who gave It to Dickies, and
that It was dictated by Sir Alexander. The juryman
I further informed Mr. lawingdon that much to their
disgust the promised SUM ma not paid to them by the
Treasury.
It appeared also that one of the jurors stated openly
that the jury had net been treated as they should by the
Crown; and that he would give no verdict till be knew
what was to be paid. The name of this Juror was stated
at the meeting.
Captain Morrison recounted his interview with the
esme jurymaa, which in • great measure wee • corrobam
tiOn of all that Hr. Lewiluidon had stated; though in
some details it was wanting as the interview had been cut
short These steiesaestl made by those netlemen of the
highest honour, prodaosd & profound impression. They
gicablish beyond doubt the villainy of all concerned in the
plot spinet Ticithorne.
