DAY EVlltlitlffli MAY hit

The liberated man, Cop, is a mew striplind,
wiio, as if attain of segniiial, had a ecullikal ode
hovering over hie half-closed mouth. lb looked up
at BURKE as if the opinion of the latter' on the evi-
dence given were at least as important as that of
judge or jury, and in his semi-lounging attitude,
his dependent, clinging look, part puzzled, part—
inconceivable as it nay seem—amused, he seemed
womanish and feeble by the strong man at his
side. MULLADY, who is sentenced to seven
yea& penal servitude, is simply a man pallid with
fright, and with no special characteristic in his
commonplace features. The prisoners stood dur-
ing our stay in court, but BURKE alone seemed
to take intelligent interest in the proceedings, or
to be in active communication with his defenders.

The verdict is satisfactory in every sense. There
is little moral doubt that Buaxa commanded the
Clerkenwell outrage to be committed ; and there
is no doubt whatever that he has been one of the
leading spirits in the planning of armed insurrec-
tions, arson, and murder. He was directly im-
plicated with the projected rising at Chester. He
has been purchasing arms, enlisting recruits,
stirring up the smouldering embers of sedition,
working upon the fears and hopes of the credulous
and ignorant, and audaciously waging a guerilla
war against this country for at least three years.
He is a man of good abilities and more than
average education, and much of the guilt of the
poor weak-headed and tipsy dupes who have looked
up to him as master, and have done his bidding,
reckless of consequences, must be laid at his door.
The thought of BURKE in convict dress, perform-
ing convict work, will have a salutary effect upon
the flighty, imaginative people who have regarded
him us a being whose mental and other resources
enabled him to laugh at the authorities, and defy
English law. MULLADY'S case is comparatively
unimportant, as he seems to have been an instru-
ment, rather than a leader; but his punishment is
fitting and deserved. The chief matter for regret
in thesc Fenian trials is that the law officers of the
Crown should have exerted their nuth3rity vaguely.
Neither ANNE Jusrics, nor O'KEEFE, nor CASEY
should, according to the Judges, have been
brought before the jury at all ; and to mix up,
even temporarily, such shadowy cases as theirs
with the pronounced ones furnished by BAuttErr
and BURKE is to weaken public belief in their dis-
crimination, and has alloyed unnecessarily the wis-
dom and dignity of the prosecution.
