LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(Tuts DAY.)

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COUR V.,
TRIAL OF THE CHARTIST LEADERS.
Shortly after 10 o'clock th,, learned judges, Lord Chief
Justice Wilde and Mr. Baron Finite, took their seats on the
bench, and Joseph Williams, 40, baker, and William John
Vernon, 40, lecturer (the latter called upon to surrender),
were indicted for baring, in the presence and hearing of
divers of her majesty's liege subjects, uttered certain sedi-
tious words against her said majesty the queen and her go-

vernment. -
The prisoner Williams, who had not been bailed, stood in
the deck ; Vernon stood below the barristers' table.
Vernon was defended by Mr. Parry ; by See-
meant Allen and Mr. Ballantine.
The Attorney-General, in opening the case on behalf of
the crown, said that, as the present jury was not the one
that was en the box yesterday, when lessee was tried, it
would be necessary for him shortly to detail to them the law
regarding the crime of sedition andthe other offenceseharged
against the prisouers,—attending an uulawtul assemblage
and taking part in a riot. having done so to the same
effect as he did yesterday, the learned attorney' general
proceeded to say, that he appeared before them as the pubes
prosecutor, but he did not appear in that capacity, upon this
or any other occasion, for the purpose of interfering in any
manner with the high and important privilege every English-
men enjoyed under the free and valuable constitution of this
country—an advantage which was one of the very highest
importanee to all, and one the exercise of which he was
moat anxious that every subject should enjoy—he meant the
right to meet in public for too purpose of discussing public
matters and evils, no matter whether real or supposed. But
he must again say, that whilst it was highly desirable that
every English subject should fully exercise that right, it
was equally desirable, nay, it was imperative, that the exer-
cise of that right should not be made the pretexe
or an instrument for, the dissemination of mischief
and disaffection. That could not be tamely allow d, and
when that important right was so abused, it was necessary
that the law should be vindicated, not only for the purpose of
punishing those who misguided others, end produced in the
mines ca the uneducated excitement of a dangerous cha-
racter, but to show to all, that those who by their presence
sanctioned such meeting were answerable for the acts of al
and for the acts of each of those who by pre-arrangement
attended these unlawful meetings. Now it was very im-
portant that in viewing these meetings the peculiar circum-
stances under which they took place should be looked at.
Words addressed to one meeting of persons might be of a
character to call for the intervention of the law, not on
account of the nature of the words themselves, but
on account of the circumstances under which the
meeting was held and the words uttered whilst
the very same words, addressed to a differently
organised meeting, might be perfeely justiliable and
perfectly legal. But in the present instance, a sneering
of persons whose position rendered them extremely liable t
be excited by such language was held on Clerkenwell green,
on the 29th of May,—at • time, be it remembered, when not
only this metropolis, but the whose of Europe, was in a state I
great excitement, and when Paris especially was under • aye-
tem by which great numbers of persons were heifer on the I
public funds, witheut any prospect or means of reproducing
the wealth they were consumine ; and perhaps the perces ad-
dressed at this meeting were of a chat acter, that such a sys-
tem here would to them be highly desirable. That meeting
was presided over by chartist leader' ; it was attended by
chartists, by whom the metropolis had been divided into cer-
tain districts—men connected with secret corresponding
I societies, and holding communication with each other pri-
vately, by which means the whole country could simul-
taneously be set in a kind of blaze, by meetings being held
at one and the seine time—
Mr. Parry objected to the Attorney-General alluding in
any way to secret societies or c'rrespundiog clubs. He asked
their lordships to restrain him from so doing, as he was sure
no such clubs or societies could be proved to exist.
Chief Justice Wilde deeded that the Attorney-General
was reeularly proceeding.
The At'orney-General resumed: New words atdressed to
a meeting like that, of a nature to excite the euditnee to
acts of violence, would not perhaps, it uttered in a private
room, to persons of education, be made the subject of a era.e-
cute m ; but look at the circumstances under which this
meeting was held. It was presided over by chartist", who
addressed the au Reece in language of a most excitable
nature ; that clearly made the meeting an unlawful one, and
all persons present were equally responsible for the conduct
of these who took the most active part in it. Toe meeting
was called by a placard, which announced that the meeting
would tone piece "at all hoz ads," in defiance, in fact, of the
solemn warning given by the government on the 10. h of
April. There were 3,000 or 4,000 persons present. A van
was drawn up as a platform, and the defendant Williams
was chairman. Vernon was there, and was therefore equally
responsible with Williams for all that took place. The learned
Attorney-General there quoted Williams's speech, already
reported, couamsucing, " My friends, the bloody aristocracy
has done its work at Rot," and referred to the conviction of
Mitchel in Dublin, under the Crown and Government Se-
curity Bill. The meeting, he remarked, was composed
chilly of Irish, who were peculiarly liable to be excited by
such a dangerous topic as Mitchel's conviction. The 'seem-
' blage was told that John Mitchel had been murdered by the
balm, bloody, and brutal whigs, and, though he was then
manacled, he was proud of his conviction—a =vices n that
had been procured by packed juries and partizan judges.
Williams told the meeting that he wanted them to fail into
marching order, four abreast, and he would lead them to a
peace where ten times the number were assembled. He
said, " Now, my lads. fell in," and the astembhem imme-
diately formed into procession, sad eroceeued throdth some
of the leading elutes. They afterwards passed along the
Strand and Fleet-street, and, when near the Dispatch office,
a paper that had fairly represented their doings,
and was read by the middle classes, • proposal
was made that that establiehmenz shuttle be attacked,
and the windows smashed. That, however, was not
done, but they created a noise, and then proceeded to Far-
ringlon etreet, where it was proposed that they should march
in a hostile manner to the Times' office. Williams there
addressed the meeting, and said he hail got it up, and they
would have meetings every night at Clerkenwell and Step-
ney, until they had received from Ireland that news which
the damnable press would not insert—until they heard that
Ireland had risen in rebellion, and was oepusing the covern-
meat by force of arms. The pr .cession we nt oei to Redeross-
strees, where, near a coffee-shop, Vernon addressed the
asseeutelage, but said he should not say much—he was far act-
kg Some emcee then cried out, ‘' Came eown to us now ;
come and lead us, and we'll do it to-night." IPCierthy,
person not at present charged, then said " No, not to-night;
wait till to-morrow, when you must bring your guns." That
was at eleven o'clock at night, nod they did not dis-
perse until nearly one o'clock The police were attacked ;
missiles were thrown at them, wed hot water was
thrown upon them tram the windows. These were the
facts it had become his duty to detail to the jury. He should
submit to their lerdslApi that this seas eleerly an Melee
ana • riotous axiom dy, Red, fleeing so far perfume' his
duty, he sheltie' leave the case to the jury, who, he was sure,
would do their duty to the satidectionot the country at Late.
Mr. Richard Kommis, son of the crown solicitor of Ireland,
called by Mr. Bodkin, prooluced nu attested copy of the
record of the conviceen of John Michel for Piety.
The copy of the record was then read.
Mr. Parry objected to the production of the document,
but his objection was overruled by the Lord Chief Justice.
F. T. Fowler was then filled and examined by Mr. Boil-
iiu
: He reiterated hie evidence of yesterday with regard to
the proem dirge at C:erkenwell green on the 29. h of May,
when Williams, MiCerthy, and Eu.ssell addressed the as-
sembly. The witness read from his notes those portions of
their speeches which he had token, and whica have already
app aced in this pato r. Vernon came into the van aeon
after Williams Mill finished speaking. The witness woe pro-
ceeding to describe the subsequent route of the procession,
when
Mr. Parry objected to cony evieence being received from
the witness which did not apply to the parish of St. Janice
Clerkenwell, inasmuch as there was no allegation in the
ieelictenent charging them with any acts done elsewhere..
Mr. Baron Parke Said the uhj. etion could not be enter-

was puperfluont, hecaus- the words or the indictment em.

LATEST FROM PARIS.

PARIS, WEDNF.r,DAY, G 30 P n.
The measures and the attitude of the government
continue to produce a favourable effect on public
opinion. 'lbis was again manifested to-day at the
Bourse, where there was an advance of 75 centimes
on the Threes and two francs on the Fives, the one
closing at -NI, and the other at 76.
The Constitutionnel of this morning has the fol-
lowing most just observations, in reply to some of the
articles of the ultra-democratic papers :
If we take the requisitery of the demagogical paper.,
there is not one of the crisis exprewied against reactiensts
which does rot turn aphis: the inconsist, rt drmag•gucs and
socialists of' the Prov,sional Government and the Execu lee
Commission. Let us examine rapidly the means by which
you pretend the reactionists have organised provocation. They
have pnssesred themselves of place, you an But call to
mind in 'riot hands the first Id:Mater of the Interior threw
thm—among what low agitators the whole administration
had fallen. By revealing the previous conduct of some of
these improvised administrators, one might see that there
were in the number more marked men than remarkablemen.
Where could you find in this batch of functionaries•upporters
of aristocracy? All moans of influence were employed,
you say, to ti netrate into the National Assembly. But who
was it that agitated aseiety in its lowest depths,—who that
employed electoral trirks and acts of violence uukuown at
any previous time ? Was it the reac.ioniots or the republi-
cans de la vi. isle, and the afield preacffers against the prin-
ciple of property ? It is further said that work was suspended,
that pleasure was taken in eagravating the financial, indus-
trial, nod ceuimercial crisis, iii augmenting misery, in order
to chive the workmen to revolt under the frightful instigation
of hunger. Well, who did all these things ? Who alarmed
capital ? who knew not how to take in time env measure in
financial matters? who proclaimed the suspension of payment?
who pronounced the word bankruptcy ? who disorganised la-
bour, under pretext of organising it ? who sacrificed private
workshops to the national workahops recognised as impneei-
ble ? Wa. it the resctioniats or the republicans de la refill.
—or the con•trte,.t or it.-01 Sibtl r.t e4Clailitt• ? Tnere was the
national wo-kshlp to ecaastem tee weeks:sea to do nothing,
the eoverament to give them arms, the clubs to excise them.
All that was not done by the reautiouists, and the ineaiures
of
theeon begun by the present governmint prove that
Meant ly du.s not deceive itself more thia we do as to
the orivin of the evil.
We read in the SAele :
W. are arsurcd that 'nice the crust jOttle4 of June,
great number of workmen cot, ruin feelings of prof-Auld re-
'entitle n', and indulge in projects of vengeance. It is ti
uc
that there are not waning people who, under tho appeeranee
of extreme solicitude far them, endeavour to persuade them
that tile bottecoisie on its pert is animated with nest meets
of hatred, and °lmre. a towards them an attitude of di rishiu
or menace. Ah !we could wish that the unfortunate men
who are thus laislad could enter the interior of all these fa-
milies, which are repre cnted cs indulging in insulting joy I
They would find in them mourning, urger, corditernation ;
they would see alines: everywhere tears flowing for the less
of a son, of a father, of a friend; and, instead ot those mile-
dictiens ih;y are constantly tel i of, muledictions
addressed only to the leaders, they would hear almost every-
where the expression of the sincerest wishes that protatit
relief may be given to tho sufferings of a popuiatiou too ,
long abused."
At the Assembly to-dsy the Vice-Presidents and
Seentnrits have been re-elected.
The decree for a grant of three millions for an as-
aociation of ouvriers was adopted.
The projects of law respecting the Bons du Tresor
and the savings banks are postponed wail Friday,aa
there will be no sitting to-morrow, on account of the
funeral ceremony of the victims of the insurrection
which will take place.
The committee of inquiry as to the insurrection,
having signified that they did not expect to arrive at
a conclusion for a fortnight to come, the Excautive
Government has determined to maintain the aidto of
siege until the 25th.
M. de Girardin was yesterday relieved from secret
confinement, and allowed to communicate with his
family and friends. It is now stated that since his
arrest he has only undergone one interrogatory, and
no search has been made either in his house or offices.
He is placed tinder the jurisdiction of the court martial
presided over by Colonel Bertrand. The proprietors
of La Presto intend, it is said, to proceed against the
printers and publishers of a journal, called La Prase
Belpublicaiae, which was yesterday hawked about the
streets. The editor, distributors, and criers of this
journal have been arrested, by order of the chief of the
Executive Government.

Mr. Serjeant Alltn, who, with Mr. Ballantyne, appeared
for Williams, then said that, after what had taken place yes-
terday, he could not stand there hoping to make any effectual
resistance to the evidence of the prosecution ; because the
whole of the cases were virtually settled, both In point of
evidence and by the law as laid down by the learned Chief
Justice. He had therefore advised his client, Williams, to
withdraw his plea of Not Guilty, and to plead Guilty, un-
derstanding that the Attorney-General did not mean to pro-
I ceed on the coant relating to the charge of riot.
The Attorney-General expressed his willingness to adopt'
that course.
Mr. Parry thought that the withdrawal of the plea of
" Not Guilty " would affect the case of Vernon, his client,
inasmuch as a great portion of the evidence against Williams
would apply also to 'Vernon.
The Chief Justice ruled that such evidence against Vernon
as might be developed in the case of Williams would not be
received as evidence against him.
The examination of the witness was then proceeded with
by Mr Bodkin : Daring the procession from Clerkenwell-
green, he believed be saw Vernon, but was not positive.
He saw him in Finsbury-square, where he was walking
round with the others. Three curses were given for the
Whigs, upon which, he said, " Ile did not like curses,—
cures broke nobones."
Police-sergi ant H. Hardy, examined by Mr. Bodkin: He
reiterated bis evidence of yesterday with regard to the meet-
ing at Clerkenwell on the 29th of May, the procession,
Vernon and Williams addressed the crowd from the coffee-
shop in Redcross-street, and used the language which has
been already published.
On his cross.examination by Mr. Parry, the witness said
he bad taken notes of the language described, but had des-
troyed them after having sent a copy to the inspector. He
eras standing about twenty .31 thirty yards from the speakers.
He saw Vernon walking in Finsbury-square ; be did not
recollect seeing Mr. Fowler walking in a similar manner.
