minster, on the subject of the..Manchmter outrages.
—The Attorney-General had it at. his option to try
Sir Francis either in the county of Leicester, or in
the county of Nliddlesex, because the supposed of-
fence was committed in both those places ; but he
prefers the former county, and the trial, with all its
increased inconveniences and expense to all parties,
cannot come on until the next assizes for Leicester.
