Yet his Lordship,.;uld the Jury, would see that, from the period of
the 27th Septesiber, aid berore the time of filing the information its
question, The writer of the letter under the title of Philo-j unius, os
seeing that his meaning had been misinterpreted, put hlmselt right in
this respect, declaring that it never had been his intention to impute
to the Duke of Cumberland the murder of his servant Sellis.
The Papers containing the explanatory tinnier, posterior hi date toths
libel of the V7th September, but prior to the day in November in which
the information was filed, were then tendered in evidence on the part
of the defendant, but Were rejected by Lord ELLENLOhOUCH. WhO re-
, fused to receive any explAnatory evidence not coi,taioed within thy
four corners of the paper containing the libel, ur nut referred to in tins
body of it.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL. in reply, conceived the case of the de-
fendant to be rendered worse than better by the observations of his
Learned Friend, who, it would seem, thought the defendmt entitled to
throw open his newspaper-officer as a sort of Court for the adminittra-
tion of criminal justice, and the lion's month at his letter box as a legiti-
mate depositary of the indiscriminate eirres which every avonyinont
correspondent chose to confide to his care, through whom they would
find a safe and speedy transit to public notice. It. any thing were
wanting to prove the fact that the libel could only be .leant to apply
to the Duke of Cumberland, it was to he found in a paragraph in the
paper of the 27th of September, where it was asserted that, in-ad-
ministering justice in this case, he would have to exercise " Roman
virtue."
Mr. WILLIAMS (in the absence of Mr. Scsrletr, who had been ob-
liged to retire on account of indisposition) shortly remarked on this new
piece of evidence.
Lord Er.LENUoROUGH then addressed the Jury, &welling in strong
tern's on the atrocity of the libel in question, which, he thought, it was
impossible not to apply to the Duke of Cumberland. The tyrannical
despotism here assumed, exceeded every thing he had ever heard or
read of; and sooner would he submit to the domineering sway of the
Despot of France, than to this more deirading and more despotic
tyranny assumed over the rights and feehnes of individuals by ,uels
Joni nalists as the present defendant. What was the case of the Duke
of Cumberland to•day, Wight, in their humbler walk, be the case of any
one of them to-morrow.
The Jury, without retiring, imrcediately found the prisoner--"`
GUILTY.
