Mr. Marryart stated, that thi• was an indictment against the

a few days artyr of the Stock Esellauge hoax, and it imme-
diately occurred to him that this gentleman itas a party eon-
verned. He slid not at that time know who the gentleman
was, but he since knew perfectly well that it was Ur. Dv Re-
mitter.

The landlord and chamber-maid of the Royal Oak corrobo-
rated this statement. They had seen their guest frequently
since the time in ei irsii,nl, and knew it was De Berenger.
4r. Gurney addressed the Jury for the defendant, and COM-
melded with considerable, force on the CIITIMINLIIICCS atteud-
ing the present prosecution, which, he said, weakd have woo-
teshed hint could idly thing coming from the platter whence
this CAIIIC hate etched that feeling in his mind. lle had some
experience• in eases of this nature, but this was the first °cc:i-
s:cm lii had es cr known in which A prosecutor for perjury
skalkeil assay as if ashamed of being known. 'Fite Jury would
perhaps be surprised to hear that at present the defendant was
iutiorant who was the prosecutor on this occasion. 1 hat there
had been abundant perjury on the trial so often alluded to
reties the evidence et to-day, he was persuaded the jar) would
no losi4;er donut, es en ii they had doubted it before; hot he was
persuaded they would not be of opinion that the defendant
was the person who was wilfully perjured. (In the former oc-
casion the w hole defence of Dc Ileteager and his friends con-
sisted in the evidence they brought forward, to prove that he
tDe Iserenger) was in London is the emth of February, and
not at Dover on that day, and several witnesses were brought
forward to swear to that fact. Now those is ho brought forward
he present prosecution lea an equal interest in pro. lug by evi-
dence, en midi. that De Iterenger had not been in LOll4lOll, but
that he was at Doter all that day. The jury would judge upon
such a proceeding as this. With respect to the crime imputed
to the present defeadant, to find him guil.y, the Jnry must be
sonv i need be had sworn falsely ; that he had kro.w ingly done so ;
and, further, that he had done so ou a pt.int material to the cause.
Be was persuaded, the Jury would feel that none of these points
applied to the present case; and, under that peisuasiou, he
•ould leave his client in their hands.

Mr. Justice Abbot, who tried this case, observed, that the
record ►et forth that the defendaut had sworn falsely and
seditiously, tbr the purpose of convicting De Iterenger and
others. This allegation had c.•rtainly not been made out; for,
even suppo6big the defendant had sworn that 1)e lterenger was
tu town, that eirciiitotailec was the only °sic which could have
operated to procure the acquittal of that person, and those in-
dicted with li.oll. With respect to the perjury itself, to con-
stitute perjury, a per,on mast nut only swear falsely, hut he
'mist do so knowingly, aiiii even deliberately. lu lbe present
site it did not appear to him that di feadant hail done either ;
Le rather seemed to have sworn under a mistake. If the Jury
be of this opinion, the defendant would be entitled to
oil acquittal.

Tisi; Jury without hesitation found the defendant Not Guilty.
