Prosecute the guilty parties. I believe the class
farmers thesessime me that the mischief bun been
allowed to proceed too far—that it is necessary at lest that
they as well as others should emefer for its suppers•
scion, and that they have all reeeivid the salutary lesson
that, by appealing to the law, they would escape this
system of tyranny, and save their families and themselves,
their *liberties and property—all that is most valuable to
them—from the attacks of the perpetrators of those
dreadful outrages. It is, I again say, necessary that all
chines is society should co-operate for the protection of
those blessings conferred upon us by peace and the mainte-
nance of the law. It is not merely that persons are called
upon by self-interest to adopt that course, but in some in-
stances they run great risk in not aiding the law and &mist-
ing in the detection of offenders. His Lordship then'
referred to the case of William Prewar, sentenced to Man-
portation at Limerick for having harboured a felon. That
man (continued his lordship) is now on his way to a place
where he will be for ever separated from all those most
dear to him in the world, because be had not the courage
to say " no" to a felon who sought refuge in his house. I
trust that may operate as a wombat; to those wbo my be
called on to incur a similar risk, and. that if any person,
however connected by ties or kindred, whom they know to
be guilty of one of those atrocious crimes, ask them to
harbour him, they will answer him by saying—" I cannot
ran the risk—l will not commit the crime lest I may suffer
the fate of William Frewen." The act ender which your
county km been proclaimed provides that though the prin-
cipal It a felony has not been convicted, or even arrested,
the penes who harbours him, knowing him to be charged,
with a Plum, shall be prosecuted, sad, Ur:ouch:Ma, trans- I
roe H*. 0 eItiIIIMMS, I theliglit it eight en make these I
Merl:nue ebeerrations On the state of mime and its feat arcs
as it eoists in your county. With the causes of this state of
things, or any of their remedies, you and I have nothing to
do. Subjects ouch as these are not only unfit to be discussed,
but to be considered on molt an occasion. Our duty,oer busi-
ness is to deal with the administration of the law. In our

----- --
respective spheres we are all called upon to concur in its
administration, and I trust that by being vigorously admi-
nistered, bat in mercy, as it always is, and which is, after
all, but a part of its justice, the result will be the resora-
tion of tranquillity and peace. Before I dismiss you to
your important duties, let me call your attention to the
provisions of this act of parliament I hold in my hand. It
appears that some of the worst of the crimes we have had
to deplore have been committed through the instrument-
ality of fire arms. With fire arms the gang assembled,
and with firs arms those dreadful outrages have been
perpetrated, of which we have heard so much. You are
awes that in any district which is in a disturbed state
dm appearing in arms is a highly penal offence under the
Whiteboy Act. Under the other sot to which I have re-
ferred, the issuing of a proclamation in itself establishes
the fact that a district is in that condition, and all the pro-
visions of the Whiteboy Act apply to it; and persons car-
rying arms in such district, without license, are liable to
be prosecuted and severely punished. Under this act also
the district in which au additional force of police is sta-
tioned may be obliged to contribute such portion of the ex-
pense as the government may deem advisable, thus imposing
on the disturbed district a penalty for the outrages that
may be committed in it. Gentlemen, I will not detain
you by referring to other provisions of this law, as they
have already been referred to by the Chief Justice in his
address to the grand jury in Limerick—an address which, I
dare say, there is not one of you who has not perused, and
derived information on all thee* points from it. But there
is one other matter to which I shall call your attention.
I find that two persons are charged with the offence
of a conspiracy to murder, or soliciting to murder.
It Is • serious offence, but one that has not often
been made the subject of investigation. Some per-
sons are under a mistake as to the existing law on this
subject. They are under the mistaken impression that
the provisions of the law relative to this offence are of as
antiquated character, or are not in force now. That is •
greet mistake. It is my duty to apprise you that the pro
visions of this law have been long the law of the land. In
1829, when the 10th of George IV., cha 34 was passed,
repealing a great number of statutes, constituting the cri-
minal code of the country, and consolidating the law, the
law relating to the offence I now allude to, was re-enacted.
(His Lordship here read • portion of the act). By that
act, gentlemen, any person conspiring to murder is liable
to suffer death as a felon; and every person who shall so-
-1 cit, encourage, persuade, or endeavour to persuade ano-
ther to commit a murder, is liable to the like penalty. So
the act of conspiring to murder, or soliciting to murder, is
punishable by the law with death, as well as if the party
charged with that offence had committed the crime of
murder itself. In England the law is not so severe, pos-
sibly owing to the circumstances of this country. It is not
for me to say what may have led the legislature to adopt
the course, but when at • late period, by the Ist of Victoria,
chap. 85, the pepalty of death was in a number of instances
mitigated to transportation' the punishment of death for
this offence was continued. It is an offence, in the inves-
tigation of which, with reference to the particular indivi-
duals charged, great caution is required. The means of
proof is sometimes difficult to be obtained, but when they
are, when the offence is brought home to any party by clear,
undoubted, and convincing evidence, the offence is one that
deserves to be severely punished, for it is one of • most
atrocious character. The law, as I have already said, visits
it with the punishment of death; and there has been re-
cently • conviction for the offencein another county. His
lordship concluded with some observations upon the general
nature of the duties the jurors had to discharges to the
finding of bills, and the evidence necssary for that purpose.
The Chief Baron having delivered his charge to the grand
jury, several bills of indictment were sent up. The only
other business done before the rising of the court, at balf-
pa.t 5 o'clock, was the arraignment of a few prisoners for
attacking houses, robbery of arms, and other property.
The court did not sit this morning until near twelve
o'clock, in consequence of the bills not having been found
before 'then in any of the murder or other heavy cases
which the crown wished to proceed with first.
Mennen or Mn. WATSON.—James Hayes and Patrick
Ryan were placed at the bar, charged with the wilful mur-
der of Mr. James Watson, at Ballycorney, on the 17th of
May last. The indictment also charged that John Crow
and others feloniously conspired and incited the prisoners to
commit the murder.
The Attorney-General detailed the facts of the case, He
said that the prisoners on trial were charged with the murder
of Mr. James Watson, who was agent to • gentleman named
Arthur, the owner of considerable landed property
in this county. As such agent, it became neces-
sary for him to make a distraint oa the goods
of a person named Crow. for non-payment of rent. It
would appear from the evidence that Crow, having enter-
tained ill-feeling towards Mr. Watson, in coasequence of
this proceeding, was induced to hire, or encourage and sti-
mulate these men to murder that gentleman. On the day
in question, these men were seen coming from the direc-
tion of Crow's house towards the scene of the murder,
for the purp xe of meeting Mr. Watson on his return from
Mr. Arthur's house, where he was in the habit of going.
The jury would probably come to the conclusion that the
prisoners were two of these men, and that the third was
William Ryan, whom it was not necessary to try. (This
is William Ryan ( Puck), timed guilty at Limerick. and
sentenced to be hanged for the murder of John Kelly.)
-When they came to the road where they expected
to meet Mr. Watson they separated, only two of them
coming out on the road, and the other remaining on the
watch. They contrived to get one of them before him,
and the other behind. Immediately on seeing them Mr.
Watson suspected their object, and endeavoured to ride
hack to his own house ; but one of the men was before
him and succeeded in stopping his horse ; upon which Mr.
Watson fell. He was armed, and discharged a pistol at
one of the men, inflicting a slight wound. Immediately
after wards the man who stopped the horse and the other
attacked and deprived him of lily. They were then joined
by the third man, who had been keeping watch. Evidence
of these facts would be produced, and it would be for the
ury to say whether the prisoners at the bar were present on
that occasion.
Witnesses were then called for the prosecution. The
second witness was under examination at the hour the mail
left.

DR. HAMPDEN.

The following is a copy of a letter from the Bishop
of Hereford to the Rev. It. R. Faulkner, of Havering-atte-
Bower, Essex, in reply to one of congratulation addressed
to his grace by the rev. gentleman:
" CIIRIBT CHUNCH, OXFORD, JAN. 7, 1848.—Dear Sir,—
Your warm expression of congratulation on my promotion to
the see of Hereford demands my siacere thanks; the 'yelp'.
thy of one who has himself stood his ground so firmly
' against a violent Tractarian assault is most welcome to mc.
You did essential service by your resistance to that
outrageous attempt of the Camden Society to intrude on
your rights in your pariah and overbear your Christian con-
scientiousness. lam much obliged to you for the report
you have sent me of the proceedings in that case. I shall
have much satisfaction in going through it when I have
leisure from the engagements which press on me at this
moment.
" I have had abundant matter of vexatious doings the
last few weeks. But I feel more than compensated for
any personal annoyance by the good which I am sure
will come out of the present disturbance. The strength
and designs of the Tractarian patty (the real movers
throughout, whatever may be said to the contrary)
will have been disclosed, and the necessity of rallying the
true protestant spirit of our church will have been fully
demonstrated.
" I am deeply thankful to a good Providence for the course
which events have taken.—l remain, dear air, yours, faith-
fully, R. D. HEREYORD (elect).
" P.S. The Bishop of Oxford would insinuate in his letter
in the Times that I have made concessions to him. I shall
be obliged to you most positively to contradict any such
statement should you hear it alleged ; it is not true.
"To Rev. R. R Faulkner."

CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. 27.
Yesterday the Porte sent to the representatives of
the five great powers a copy of the reply of the Turkish
government to the note of the Greek cabinet, lately trans-
mitted to them by the secretary of the Russian legation at
Athens. The Turkish ministers profess themselves perfectly
contented with the satisfaction offered by the governmeat of
King Otbo. All the coercive measures are now virtually
withdrawn; the Greek consuls have permission to resume
their functions; the Greek flag is to have the same privileges
as heretofon ; and in a day or two M. Museums will leave
this for Athens, as minister of the Sultan at the mutt of
King Otho. The representatives of the five great powers
I have no other alternative than to approve of the conduct of
the Porte. With the exception of Russia, however, there is
but little satisfaction manifested by the diplomatic body at
the manner in which this question has terrniaated. The
question, as far as regard. Greece, is far from • conclusion.
To produce a diversion, and at the same time to further
one of his cherished projects, the agents of the Emperor
are busy at this moment in getting up • revolution
in Greece. As had been foreseen, everything is most
favourable for such • proceeding. The Clapths and the
Palicari, the most essential ingredient in a popular tumult,
are far from being pleased with the peaceful turn which the
misunderstanding between Turkey and Greece has appa-
rently assumed. Their two great moving principles, hatred
lo their old masters and love of plunder, seem to them to
have • bad chance of being gratified. The Clepths and
Pelican include the great mass of the people ; and the
other part of the population, the traders and shipowners,
whose occupations had made them more peacefully inclined,
have become desperate through the disaster' of the past
year. The King, who was the first to raise this storm, is
the one against whom it is now exclusively directed. In
exciting the nod passions of his people, he looked to them
for support in his blind opposition to the demands of Turkey ;
and now, at the eleventh hour, he has, in the opinion of the
Greeks, basely conceded to that power upon whom they
had hoped to gratify at once their avarice and
their hate. The public treasury is exhausted, the army
mutinous, and the government disunited. The King stands
alone unsympathiserl with, and unsupported. It is to bring
about such a state of things as this, that Russia has been
labouring for the last eleven months.
La Vidette, a French man-of-war steamer, left this on the
15th inst. for Athens, with despatches from Baron de Bour-
queney for M. Piecatory. La Vidette is to convey hi Pied:
tory to Marseille., on his way to Madrid, where he has been
appointed minister plenipotentiary.
The cholera has entirely disappeared from Constantinople.

Company'satoamer Indus arrived here on the 31st ult. Lieut.-
Gen. Ellice, family, and suite at,ived by her. He landed under
la solute Iron Fort St. Angelo, as commander of the forms in
Malta.—By the arrival of the Neapolitan steamer Maria
Christina, we are informed that Sicily is in such a state of
ferment that a revolution is hourly looked for. Gen. Laudi
has been removed from Messina and sent to command at
Capua. His successor is not yet known. Other
officials in Mersin* have been changed.—When Cap-
tain Merediti, the chief of the rebel troops at Pa-
tras, was embarking with his men in the boats of the Spitfire
in pursuance of the convention with the foreign consuls, and
by which be had consented to accept 32,000 drachmas in-
stead of the 60,000 which he had levied on the town, the
secretary of the monarch, M. Rondopoulos, arrived with a
force of 200 to 300 men, and ordered a volley to be fired on
the insurgents, by which four or five were killed and 16
wounded. Some of the balls struck the boats, and Lieut.
Macdonald of the Spitfire, considering the act as an indif-
ferent requital for the services he had rendered, entered a
formal protest against the act of the Greek functionary ;
the Spitfire reached Malta en the 24th ult. with 54 of the
revolutionists. The Lord High Commissioner of the lonian
Islands had refused permission for them to land at Corfu,
but the Governor of Malta permitted them to land there.

DEATH OF A MILITARY KNIGHT OF WINDSOR.—
WINDSOR, FRIDAY.—Lieut. G. Sicker, who was appointed
one of the military knights of Windsor in February, 1538,
expired yesterday morning, after a short illness, at his resi-
dence in the Upper Foundation, in the 81st year of his age.
The deceased knight, who had seen much service, during •
period of upwards of silty yews, was the adjutant of the 11th
Light Dragoons at the battle of Waterloo, and accompanied
Lord Macartney in his embassy to the Emperor of China in
1792. There are upwards of 150 names on the list of appi-
cants for the vacant appointment.

our farmers to-day then for any market-day since harvest.

Hem., Jan. 14.-There has been a good supply of Eng-
lish Wheat, which found a steady sale to the millers, at last
week's rates. Barley dull of sale. White boiling Peas have
met a fair sale at steady rates. Oats, Beans, and Tares with-
out alteration. Ryemeal commands 61. 15e. per ton. The
severe frost which prevailed early in the week, has been
succeeded by mild open weather. Of Nitrate of Soda. small
sales are made at 13s. per cwt. In Guano and Rape Cakes
nothing new to report. Bones may be quotel 950. to 975. 6d.
per ton, for the best quality, ex-ship. Linseed Cakes, Hull-
made, centime to move off very freely, at Ills. 2s. 6d.
per ton for best quality. Foreign sells but slowly,
though at steady rates, varying, according to quality and
condition, from 101. tss. down to 81. Pls. per ton. -H
The arrivals of Linseed this week amount to about 11,716
qrs.-a onsisting of 11,701 qrs. from Kertch ; and 11 bags 16
casks from Riga. The crushers being priucipally supplied
with arrivals from the Black Sea, which had been bought to
arrive, sales on the spot have been consequently curtailed,
although the consumption is going on to a very large extent.
In the business done, prices are well supported-say, Black
Sea, 435. 6.1. to 46.. ; tine Petersburg, 45e. ' middling, 411.6 d.
to 425. ; down to 395. for inferior ; Riga, 40s. to 445. ; Memel
and Konigsberg, good crushing, 41s. to 435., down to 375.
per qr., aecorling to quality. Rapeseed: a small parcel of
tine Danish is held for 291. per last; bat this price has not
been paid. Imports into Hull during this week Linseed,
11,716 qrs. ; Wheat, 945 ; Barley, 893 ; Peas, 52.
LIVEUPOOL, Jan. 14.-A change of wind, accompanied by
a return of mild, damp weather, has brought in a moderate
supply of the leading articles of produce from Ireland, but
little coastwise, and the fresh imports from abroad are also of
trivial amount, with the exception of a further good arrival
of Beans from Egypt. The dull and rather declining
state of the meant., of the interior continue to pre-
vent any engine of animation in the trade here,
and, upon a most limited business, our general
currency has been barely supported during the past two
days. Our Cora Exchange today, being almost wholly de-
serted by country dealers, and our local buyers limiting their
proceedings within the narrowest bounds possible, we have
to report this morning, in nearly all its departments, the
most heavy and uninteresting trade experienced for a long
time past. English and Irish new Wheats were offered 2d.
to 3d., and all kinds of old, including foreign, 2cl. per 701 b.
under the current rates of Tuesday, with very little
effect. Flour, likewise, being equally difficult of
sale, w.,s, in general, nominally depressed in value.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Peas continued to be held on the
terms last noted, except the ordinary runs of Egyptian
Beans, which were pressed for sale, and decidedly lc per qr.
cheaper. Oats, participating in the dulness applicable to
other articles, receded 64. per 451b5., and Oatmeal 6d, per
load. Indian Corn, of which • few limited parcels alone
appeared to change hands, declined Is. per qr., and for
Indian Meal 15s. per barrel was hardly obtainable. Arrivals
from the 11th to the 13th January, inclusive, into Liverpool
and Runcorn:-Wheat, 2,148 qn. ; Barley, 8.33; Malt, 5;
Oats, 6,483 ; Beans, 1,613 ; Peas, 140 ; Indian Corn, 1,411;
Indian Corn Meal, 510 barrels ; Oatmeal, 2,756 sacks ; Flour,
1,370 sacks and 1,217 barrels.
Lizicotte, Jan. 14.-The supply of Wheat has been very
liberal this week, which was taken off very slowly at 2s. de-
cline • red, 484. to 55e. ; white, 545, to 58s. Barley sup-
ported last week's prices ; malting, 325. to 355. ; nding,
295. to 31s. Beans, new, 41a. to 445. ; old, 625. to 565. Oats
a dull trade, 18e. to 235.
RIPON, Jan. 13.-We had an extensive supply of grain. at
this day's market, but the samples of Wheat generally in-
ferior, and few sales to any extent effected. All descriptions
of grain were dull of sale. Wheat may be quoted 2e., and
Barley and Oats 2s. below last week's currency. Wheat,
white, per hushel,7a to 71. 6d. ; red, 61. 3d. to 7s. 3d. Belknap

to 28e.
Scannonot on, Jan. 13.-We have had a good nipply of

good demand. Wheat, 7s, to 71. 9d. per 5 stone. Barley,
32a. to 344. per qr. of 32 stone, Oats, Ild. to 12d. per stow;
old, 13d. to 14d. per stone. Superfine Flour, 45e. ; and se-
conds, 40s. per sack of 20 stone.
SOUTHAMPTON, Jan. 14.-Our market is very dun for all
articles ; and Wheat, most of the samples being out of condi-
tion, must be quoted Is. to Si. per qr. lower than last week.

Wheat, 295. to 32a. Peas, 28s. to 30s. Barley, 211 e. eit 21a,
