the proceedings, like our contemporaries, we might

upon this, as upon many oths.r important occasions,

have had access to Mr. MorrLEE's Report of the
Trial, now in the Press, the most complete and I il,!e
that perhaps was ever published, and upon whi, e
no pains nor expense have been spared; and l);. it
