chant.
The book was now about to be handed to Mr.
Mitchell, when—
Mr. Carlile addressed the Lord Mayor, and said,
" My Lord, before bail is given, I wish to ask you
whether you have any objection to release me with-
out securities ?"
The Lord Mayor—" Sir, I have already called
upon you to give bail for your personal appearance.
in order to answer such complaints as shall he made
against you in the Court of King's Bench in the
next Term."
Mr. Carlile—" Then I tender you this paper.

of your Lordship."—[Here Mr. Carlile handed up
a written paper to the Lord Mayor.]
The Lord Mayor look up tl:e ;raper, and having
held it for • few seconds in his hand, addressed
Mr. Cathie. and said, " Do you wish me to read
this paper ?" He seemed to us about to open the
paper for the purpose of reading it, when suddenly
changing his mind, he said. 44 I will not read it ;
1 call on you to tender bail for your appearance in
the Court of King's Bench in the next Term."
Mr. Carlile—" I tender it here publicly, as my
protest against your proceedings towards me."
The Lord Mayor—" I will not receive it."

Mr. Lindsay was next called, and made the

The Lord Mayor addressed him as follows:
" Mr. Lindsay, are you bound in security for Mr.

Mr.Lindsay—(bending his head towards his Lord-
.

ship)—" Aye."
The Lord Mayor—" I ask you, Sir, are you

The Lord Mayor—" Are you worth the sum of

Mr. Lindsay—" I am."
Mr. Carlile was then bound in • sum of 300/.
to appear to whatever complaints should he made
against him during the next Term, in the Court of

He was then again addressed by the Lord Mayor.
—" Mr. Csrlile," said his Lordship, 18 I have not
as yet taken any measures against the people in
your shop, who continue to expose to sale the
pamphlet complained of ; but I now tell you that
this subject is now under •sciiice, that it has not
escaped observation, and I consider practices of this
kind so far from mitigating your offence, as tending
very much to add to the charge against you. 1 tell
you this in order to caution you, and to shew
you, that neither I nor my fellow Magistrates wish
to art with malignity or severity towards you."
Mr. Carlile—" My lord, your motives are best
known to yourself. I do not consider the publics.
lion you allude to an offence at all ; 1 shall not con-
sider it so until a Jury of my country determine
the other way. Feeling thus, 1 shall continue to
sell the pamphlet ; I will not be intimidated."
The Lord Mayor—" Then, Sir, you will do so
at your peril."
Mr. Carlile" I have done so before ; I know
the ground I stand on."
The Lord Mayor—" You may depend on it, Sir,
that I shall do my duty as • Magistrate."
Mr. Carlile—" And you, my Lord, may rest as-
sured that I shall defend my rights as a citizen. I
presume, my Lord, I am now restored to liberty ?"
The Lord Mayor—" You are liberated on bail."
Mr. Carlile and his friends then retired.

CORK, AUGUST 21.
ADDUCTION.—The town and neighbourhood of
Mill-street. Cork. have been in 'real confusion
*nice last Sunday night, in consequence of an out-
rage which took place there, of a very serious and
heinous nature. Some weeks ago a Miss H—,
accompanied by her aunt, Mrs. K--. went on a
visit to a Mr. Bride's, within about a h.lf a mile of
hlill.street. On the eve 66 ill g of Sunday, the Bth
• irritant, the young lady, accompanied by her re-
lative, walked out a short distance from the
lam.e, when it young lad of the amine of
B--
sprung from behind a hedge. and assisted by some
other*, seized and carried her otf un horseback.
They had not proceeded far, however. when she
was released, woliont susta 11l il tg any other injury
than the fright naturally attendant on the taking her
ult. On Sunday night, however, between the hours
of twelve and one o'clock, a large party, consisting
of upwards of twenty men, came to the house
of Mr. Bride. which they succeeded in entering,
and rushing up stairs to the room where Moss H.
unit her soot lay, dragged the former from bed, and
forced her down, without allowing her time to
dress, or to take auy other garment than a habit
which she hastily stiatched. She was immediately
hurried off, accompanied by the whole party; and
though a diligent search hot beets made through
the comitry round for a circuit of twenty utile*,
in which Thom.. Valli*, Esq. of Mine-hill ;
C;eoige Wallis, E.g. or L./fishtails.; Barry Cutler.
Esq. of Flinitield ; and John Leader, Esq. of
li el. have been extremely active, no tidings have
been heard of the young lady or the party. It
is tight to atute, that the person who first took
her nil, but subsequently restored her, is not consi-
dered to be in the least degree connected with the
latter outrage. the fellow at the head of which is
well known in the country, though never seen or
spoken to by Miss H—rl. This is the same young
lady who was takeii off about two or three years
since from the neighhourbood of Bandon, by a per-
sou of the name of Norwood.

CORK COUNTY ASSIZES.
FILIDAY, AUGUST '2O.
At ten o'clock the Lord Chia' Baron came into
tvlten a ottutiter of Prisonefll were put upon
their respective trials, the following convictions took
place :
Timothy Corcoran, for killing a sheep, and taking
away the skin soil fat.
The CHIEF BARON onHI, if the Jury brought
in a verdict of guilty against the Prisoner, lie would
be under the necessity of passing sentence of death
upon him, as the Legislature made this a more hei-
corms o!f•ocv than the mere stealing a sheep ; the
Prisoner was found Guilty. William Driscoll, for
eieep.stealing ; and lachard Bernard, for man-
slaughter.

FRATRICIDE.
Richard .4ndreto4 was next put to the bar.
charged with the wilful murder of his brother,
James Andrews. This trial excited a considerable
interest in the public mind, and the Court was
crowded to excess.
:11r. COSORAVE briefly addressed the Court and
Jury, oil behalf of the Crown, and said, he would
colorist himself with merely stating to them the
leadis,g facts iu this cause, which he understood
would be fully sulsstarasated in evidence. He
then detailed the circumstance* under which the
deceased James A orireos met his death, and said,
although the principal sinless in this case was an
approver, yet if Isis evidence was corroborated by
other collateral curcurostames, the Jury would be
bound to fuel the Prisoner guilty.
The first witness called was a man of the name of
Hammeisley, who sated, that, on the Ilth of June,
he discovered the lossly of the deceased on his (svit-
Hess's) land—it ea% nearly covered with earth, and,
upou exessiiuilig it, he foutol several cuts ou the
deceased's head ; mud. some distauce from where the
body lay, he fowld a coat belonging to the de-
ceased, and a pocket-book, which lie carried to the
Prisoner at the bar (Richard Andrews). bat did not
examine the cauteuts of the pocket-books
Mr. Collie. a surgeon, was next ezamiued. He
saw the bode of the deceased after it had been dis-
cover.d, and hail ilo doubt but that the wounds in-
flicted tin deceased's head had been the cause of his
death. These two witnesses were tiot cross-tea-
witted.
Joists Clancy, an informer. was the next witness
produced ; lie kw:* the &craved. James Andrews;
r"collected the 10th of June, when the alleged mur-
der was committed ; it was on a Thursday ; *bout

gious man, lie looped; never committed a murder—
was never 64,0 with one--never took a false
oath—was not the person who struck deceased,
uor even laid hands on him until after his death.
Prisoner never told witness he intended to murder

head of one broth. r to murder another—did not
give informations until lie was taken up—tl ttttt Ott

no doubt it was the blood Of the deceased—
was only just recovered wit of a severe fit of illness
—after he was arrested, ris;d i.othing on the subject
for a day or two; lie ought to have mentioned it
before if lie had any wit—when hr and Prisoner
went iit to take the porter, Prisoner drank three
plots, and witness two—never fed the country in
the course of his life for uny crone, and had no oc-
casion. Nothing further very material came out
-from the remainder if this witness's cross-mm.B-

Ignatius Young. a publican in the town of Kilo
worth, was next sworii.—Knows the Prisoner •t
the bar; knew his brother James ; remembers the
10th of June : on that evening Prisoner and the
last witness. Clancy, came to his house. where
they drank some porter, for which Prisoner paid,
they went away together. After the murder was
committed. heard Mr. Collis say he wuuld have all
the publicans in the town exatnined, to find out if
there were any suspicious characters drinking in
their houses on the night in question.

On his cross-examination by Mr. Hoesow, witness
said, wheti the Prisoner at the bar and Clancy first
called at his house, Prisoner observed, that Clancy
told him Mr. Young was unwell, and, iu consequence
of that intelligence, lie merely came to see how he
was; but finding him quite well, he told Clancy
be was a liar, fay giving him such false inforunstion.
However, afterwards Prisoner and Clancy appeared
to be good friends, ■ud writ into his house, where
they drank the porter. %Viten the Prisoner came
to witness, in a day or two after the murder was
committed, he requ,-steel witness not to mention
that Clancy had been drinking in his company.
Witness at the time 'supposed Prisoner said this
merely as he did nut like to have it known he was
in company with a man so much beneath him iis life.
The next witness was u boy, who, on the night in
-question saw Prisoner posing through the town of
Kilworth, with something like a piece of iron half
concealed in his hand ; cud afterwards saw Prisoner
and deceased walking through the town un the way
towards Nlitchelstown.
Robert Bible sworn : lives near Lisinore, in the
county of Waterford; knows Prisoner; on the
Tuesolay'after the murder was committed, Prisoner
came to witness's house, and on entering his room,
caught witness's hand, which he squel zed in such
a manner us almost to break his fingers. Prisoner
asked witness if lie had heard any thing from Kil-
worth ; to which witness answered ( judging he al-
luded to the Coroner's inquest), that he had been
told all about it ; that it was fully proved before
the Coroner that Prisoner had murdered his bro-
ther, and what could induce him to commit such
an sect ; to which he replied, •• the devil and
drinking."
On his cross-examination, this witness admitted
that Priv-miler, on coming to his house, appeared
deranged, and from his 'mower, like one out of
his senses; he had known him fur a lung time.
Julio Courtenay, Esq. a Magistrate of the
county of Waterford, was next called ; he swore
that he arrested the Prisoner iu the la►t witness's
house, on the Tuesday after the murder; that he
found Prisoner iu bed, who dressed himself very
quietly, and had no appearances about him of
insanity.
Ou his cross-examination he said, he never spoke
to Prisoner before that day, might have seen him
once or twice, but could not be as good a judge of
his previous state of mind as the last witness, who
had known him very well.
Cooke Collis, Esq. a Magistrate of this county,
eworis ; attended the Coroner's Inquest ; the Pri-
soner at the bar war not present, but had fled the
country before it, and could not be heard of at the
time.
Mr. Mathias Hendly, an attorney, next called,
and swurn--Pmistmer admitted in a itness's presence,
that lie had committed the horrid murder in ques-
tion, and that distress was the cause of it, as Pri-
suuer ttling some accomits with the deceased
its wituess'a presetice, was indebted to deceased in
a sum of 501. the whole of which lie said lie wee
unable to pay ; on being cross-examined he said,
he had heard PSI/Wier say he paid it all except
about :30s. ur Si.
Here the case for the prosecution closed, and the
Prisoner's Counsel only called one witness, a gen-
tleman, who said lie had known the Pt-isomer us long
as he could reim•ember. and always thought him u
isoper, honest, well-conducted maim in life, and
never heard the least syllable alpinist his character
before the transection in questitos.
The Learned Judge then summed up the evi-
deuce in a most deem, perspicuous, and impressive
manner.
The Jury retired, and in less than two minutes
brought in a verdict of Guilty.
The Chief Barnum then proceeded to pronounce
the sentence of the law, which was, that the l'ri-
►ourr should be executed on Monday i.exi, sand his
body given for dissection. In pronoutscisog srotemice,
the Learned Jetige was touch Mr, cted, imme-
diately afterwards left the Court for some tour.
The unhappy Prisoner was then conducted back
to gaol.
