The MURDER OF Mn. FITIMRALC. —ln passing
sentence on Walsh on Thursday. at Limerick, Mr.
Justice Keogh delivered a long, eloquent, fervid, and
almost imposaioned address, which powerfully fm-
pressed every one In court bat the prisoner. Judges.
in peeing sentenoe in Olean agrarian cases, are apt to
apologise for borrowing the feelings of the culprits and
aggrecrating the horror of their position ; hot the
persons they address memo so utterly insensible that
one might as reasonably speak of unending the feelings
of the Gorilla. In this ease the Jndge endeavoured to
find some flesh—come vulnerable spot, susceptible of

but In vain. His Lorrh.hip reminded him that
he never had the least quarrel with the
gentleman he murdered, that he was young, and meat
have had some natural feeling: but when he saw that
young, beeutiful, and noble lady beside her husband,
Imploring that he might be spared, the prisoner did not
stay his murderous arm. Inuit her youth and beauty she
stood before lym appealing, and he relented not. He
Implored him not to seek to aggravate the horrible
atrocity of his offence by concealing the guilty cornea-
Mons that led him into his awful position. Those men
were fourfold murderers—they were the mnrderers of
Yr. Fitzgerald, of his widow, of Beckham, and of Walsh,
—and they were tenfold more guilty than their tools.
Hewarned the prisoner that if he did not disburden his
heart of guilty knowledge he wool.' go down to eternal
darkness. He (the Judge) cared not in what religion
be was brought up, no rite or ceremony could save him
without repent•nce. Repenting and confessing his
guilt, the greatest criminal would find atonement in
the blood of One who suffered for man upon the cross,
for it is written—' There is but one name under Heaven
by which men may be saved." The black cap was
assumed amid solemn silence, anrillie prisoner was sen-
tenced to be hanged on the Ist of September next. The
only temark the wretched young man made was that
he was "brought into it.* He betrayed no emotion or
concern throughout the whole of the proceedings, and
his heart warn proof even against the earnest and im-
pressive exhortations of the Judge.

The Attorney-General said that in the case ef Denis
DiUana a true bill had been found against him for being
an accessory before the foot to the murder of the late
Mr. Francis Fitsgerald. Another bill had been found
against • man named Cooke for harbouring James
Walsh, who had been recently sentenced to death. The
Crown, in the interests of justice, thought it necessary
to apply for • postponement of these cases to tbe next

stated that he was eery much restricted from communi-
catfon with his friends and family sines be had
been arrested. His lordship said he would not
interfere with the prison authorities, and as to enter-
taining an application for bail, it was entirely out of the
question. Mr. Casey said he appeared for Cooke, who
was charged with the minor offence of harbouring
He respectfully asked his Lordship to admit
Mae to bail, considering that he had been 'dready some
time in onstody. His Lordship said that if the Crown
objected lie would not accede to the application. The
Atterney-General said that the prisoner was charged
with an offence only second to &capital crime. He could
not commit to she application for admission to bail.

Michael Renehan was then indicted for sending a
threatening letter to Mr. A. M.. Galimey, an the 2nd
of February br4, threatening to murder him. The
Attorney-General, the Solicitor-General. &leant
SeMyrna, and Mr. De Moleyns prosecuted, and Mr.

7-General stated the cue, witnesses for the
prosecution were examined, end the fury brought in s
verdict of "Guilty." The prisoner wu sentenced to
six years' penal servitude.
