THE BISHOP OF CLOGHER.

We are to-day enabled to enouunce some very
important particulars in connexion with the core
of this unhappy person. The witnesses who ■r-
rived from London a couple of weeks since, having
undergooe a preliminary examination in Dublin by
Sir Henry Meredyth, were sulnequeritly dispatched
to the seat of judicial tnvestigslio►► at Armagh.
The proceedings in the Metropolitan Court have
already commenced. The Lord Primate and
assistiog Bishops have been sitting during the last
few days, and before these Right it lid Per-
sonages the regular examinution of the accusing
witnesses has taken place. This part oldie proceed
will, it is understood, terminate this day (4th
inst.) The course which follows next will occupy,
perhaps. shout ten days more. The Ecclesiastical
Law has peculiar form•, and directs intervals be.
tweets the publication of the charge against an ac-
cessed party. the examination of w•itttesser, and
other distinct parts of the proceedings. Judgment
will be pronounced, it is communiested to us,
either on the 13th or 14th instant. Of course, no
doubt can exist of its briny; that of deprivation
—in other words, a removal from all spiritual rank
and distinction, the dispossession of all church
revenues and emoluments, and an exclusion for
ever from any connexion with the clerical character.
The Court having thus filially closed its sittings,
fifteen days will he allowed to the itemised party to
appeal ugainst its judgment ; when, its VII ;TWOI is
likely to be entered, the sentence of 4i«prittatiott
will be officially promulgated. The CUUrpbc of pen.
ceeding adopted by the authorities in this mobt
painful case. has given the greatest sati►faction to
the Clergy and other members of the pure Church.
which one of its Dignitaries has so umiaturally
scandalised. The Bishop of Clugher is at Paris.-4

COURT OF CAPSATION.

APPEAL OF LIEUT-COLONEL CARON AGAINST
HIS SENTENCE.

This appeal, such tie it was, had the novelty of
being made after the unfortunate mail was actually
executed—oay, after his execution was known in
Paris.

M. limbed stated, thut he had been charged to
submit to the Court the appeal of Lieutenant-
Colonel Caron. His sentence was known in Party
by means of a telegraphic communication ; hut
neither papers nor memoirs had arrived which he
could bring before the Court to justify it in at-
tending to the appeal. He had written to have the
documents forwarded, to apply for delay ; he had
denounced the judgment as vicious to the Keeper
of the Seals, in consequence of its incompetence;
the Keeper of the Records of toe Court had refused
to receive hie reclamations ; lie had applied per-
sonally to the President, but with no effect iu stop-
ping proceedings, sod now with the news of Caroii's
execution, winch may not, however, be true, be de-
wooded if he might plead fur the admission of the
request.
The Advocate General merely replied, that the
reqUest having hero ueither preceded nor *mom-
pouted by an act of appeal, the Court, he thought,
could Hot attend to it.

After a short deliberation the Conrt decided,
that there was no legal appeal from Caron before
ir, and that it had nottinig to do with the request
signed Isambert,

AFFAIR OF GEN. BERTON AND OTHERS.

Afte► the report of this erase had been recd

M. Issuoberi addressed the Court for General
Berton and the others under seuttnce, and con-
tended for the first ground of nullity, viz.—that
M. Boisner, one of the Jury, had not reached the
age of 30, moped by the Code. M. Boisnet,
who is a military man, had refused to come to Pa.
ris to give evidence on that fact. A register of
baptises had been transmitted to the Ministry of
Justice, dated 10. h of July, 1791, in which it
was stated, that M. !Jolene, the Juryman, was
bore the 10th of June, 1792, but according to
the Civil Code the uge of a person registered
was only to be reckoned from the day when the
register was dated, so that us the list of Jury-
men was notified before July 10, 1932, M. Bois.
net was not legally qualified to sit. In the
register, too, the individual was coiled Boinet.
nut &genet, end there were witnesses to prove that
there were several Bninets, and that the Juryman
who had been comprehended in the conscriptiou of
1812, a. having been born between December 1 and
31, 1793, could not be the person *boar register was
produced. M. Isainbert also smiled, that there
were forgeries and alterations in the poets verbal of
the proceedings, and he demanded that • delay
should be grouted to hear witnesses on that subject.
The Court hoeing stated at length the grounds of
their decision, rejected the sivliciition.
