SUNDAY TRADING IN LOLlaroPe.—On Saturday
Robert Barton • fruiterer, of Belabare- attended in obedieuce

en this information of U. Jordan with having, on Banal,
the 10th day of September last, espesed certain artieles to his
window on the Lord's-day, and with selling a portion of the
sum. It appears that the &tighter of Barton, a child nine
yams of age, sold, in the absence of her parents, • half-
pennyworth et lollipops to another child, about the sante
sat Barton, however, was convicted in the penalty of 6s.
Barton pleading his inability to pay the fine, he having •
wife and five mug children to support, was allowed a fort-
night to pay it, or in default to be placed in the stocks for
two boars, or refer hie goods to be sold. It may be re-
membered that Barton is the same person who was perse-
cuted in the " walnut ease " by the rev divine at Bashes%
about 12 months slum.

A new Guildhall has been erected at Taviatock, by
the Duke of Bedford. Its site is when a portion of the

suppled its inhabitants with a never-failing stream of en.

THE Coma's SATURDAY NIGHT —Some yaws ,
ago a Scottish artist. named Thom exhibited in London ,
with some success a couple of sculptured representatives of
Burnie Tam o' Shutter sad flouter Johnny. A new candi-
data for parsonage afforded on Saturday a private view of a
work of much larger pretensiotelociaistieg of tries figures, the
rise of life, three cats, and two ,in illustration of Burn's
Cotter's SatardLy Night." H. a painter eedeavoured to
place before as a picture of the same subject, a better idea
would have been convoyed than can possibly be done by
sculpture. Therefore are we bound to say that Mr. Ciem-
isell's (reap of statuary fails in the object it was meant to
attain. It is as vain to attempt the representation
of a cottage group in sculpture especially one
created by the poetry of Burns—as it has been
found to paint pictures from Burger's " Lenora" or Shalt-
spears's "Midsummer Night's Dream ;" and if suchattenipte,
*Ma made by practised men, fail, it is not to be expected
that they will stowed when made by an amateur. In look-
ing at Mr. Gemaiell's group one's imagination is forced back
to the time when statuary was first used for adenoma; sad
that
pwe ood
of en c
ertain old churchesffect was prodeor. Itd which is Tirade la the
snir, strikes us as a produrAcm
set of our time, and is for this reason caritas. The figures
are 'soh carved out of solid blocks of freestone; and, besides
the characters in the story,' figure of Burns himself is added.
The costume of the period is oleos:se preserved, but in some
instances with a grotesque rather than a Entice' effect-
This induces Chinese appearance in the especially
which ought to have most sham, namely, t tof Ors girl.
We have said that this group was the week of au amateur.
The artist, we ere Wormed, is a srMwright; sad this work,
undertakes as first for asamentrost, has hem the fruit of the
labour of some years. It. figures aro col the size of life;
and, however defective they may be la form, the whole as a
poop is curious and worthy of impedes. It may be viewed
at 16, Mill-street, Conduit-street.

dllibreat to the subsequent proceedings.
Limy thou addressed the court. He said : Although I ear-
of the sire palate of the charter, I never had
strliglgir illation to carry them out by violence) and It
is known that I frequently expressed the opinion that
the chaster would not have soy good result veins it was

"Mrtelmby
addremed the court with greet vehemence.
Heald : I say you have no right to sentence me. Although
the trial has laded a long time, it has not bees a fair trial,
and my rogue* to have a felt trial—to be tried by my equals
—has not bean complied with. Everything has been done
to raise a prejudice against me ; sad the puma this country,
and I believe other countries too, have done all in their power
to mother me with ridicule. I ask no pity—l ask no
mercy.
Fay, in • violent tone, and striking the front of the dank :
No more do I.
Coffey told his fellow whom to be quiet ; he would only
theresse his troubles by violence. Ile then proceeded : I ex-
pemd to be convicted, and I didn't thick anything else, but
I deal want any pity; no, I Pity the government, end I
pity the Attain -General for convicting me by moans of
each hem aharecten. The Attorney General ought to be
celled the " Spy General," and using such men Is a harms
to the government, but they only exist by such means. I
am quits innocent ; my locality never sent any delegates at
all, and I ha/ **thing to do with the " luminaries."
I have • right to complain of the other spy,
Davis, being kept beck till the last moment.
As to my having a loaded pistol, I only carried
it for my own proteotion, es my life had been threatened.
This, however, is what I have always expected; I always
thought it would come to something like this. I am not
whim for martyidom, but after what I have endured this
week I feel that I could bear an puoithmeot preodly, even
to the useful!. This sew act, of parliament is diegreeeful,
miff I am proud to be the fleet victim of it after the glorious
Mitchel. Every good act was est aside in parliament—
everything that was likely to de any good to the working
classes was either thrown oat or est allde, but a measure to
restrain their liberties could be passed in a few hours. I
have nothing more to my.
Baron Platt.—Prisoners at the bar, William Dowling,
William Lacey, Thomas Fay, and William Coffey, you have
bees tiled by two juries of your country; you, William Dow-
ling, by one, sad the other prisoners by another; and they
havesi rived at the only geminate° that could be oome to by
twelve upright and reasonable gentlemen upon the evidence
that hada adduced before them—that you were guilty of
the ammo with which you were chargeel. There can be
no doubt—it is quite clear—that you intended to levy war
against the Queen, to compel her, by forte and
arm, to alter her councils: and with regard to you,
William Dowling, it le evident that your object in
*Wag with the others was to dismember the empire
sad separate Ireland by keee and arms from this country.
Whet eight had you to set up your understanding against
the sweetest* of mankind and the result of ancient wis-
dom ? on have chosen to call that which the constitution of
Wen oreatry has branded as felony, patriotism. Was it
palsied= foe a number of people to °Despise in secret and to 1
endeavour to carry out the misery, wretchedness, and
=l, projected by them, at their meeting on the
of August? Could it be said that de-
voting a peaceful city to flaws, destroying innocent ,
shims, taking pommies of the government by force and i
bloodshed, was patriotism ? The law said that such act,
were acts of felony, and seeking -Gould be more clear than .74
that they were so. It Is lamentable to find that persons of
education, apparently pessesing feelings of manly energy r,
and independence, should have lent themselves to such pro- u
seedlings with each &desperate object. The jury have found a
that you were guilty of the crime laid to your charge, and b
no me who has heard the evidence can doubt, after the pro. 1
ceedings at the meeting on the 16th August, that you in- 4
Waded on the following day, when the shades of night de. 2
wended upon this unfortunate metropolis, that • Weill t
of murder, firing, and robbery should have filled 1,
this unhappy city, and that you intended to have
assumed the government of the country, and have
governed it as you pleased. :Ton have bees convicted of this
moat daring defiance of the law, and the court would not be
doing its duty either to the law or to the country, if, when I
such an odium was clearly established, it did not make a 3
most severe example of all those who were brought within 1
the pale of the law. I therefore feel it my duty to order
that you be severally transported beyond the seas to such 2
place as her Majesty by the advice of her privy council shell
direct pad appcent, for the term of your natural lives.
When the sentence was pronounced, Fay exclaimed in a
load voice, " This is the baptism of felony in England ;"
sad he then looked up to the gallery end said, "Good bye„l
my &wen ; good bye, fellow-countrymen." 'The other pri ;
sonars made no observation.
The court then adjourned until Monday (this) morning
at ten o'clock.
