box ; and decide, as was their duty, upon the evidence
alone. They had learned from the preliminary discus-
sion that had taken place, that the indictment contained
the main charge against the prisoner—that of sedition
—in various forms—namely, as having uttered seditious
language, taking part in an unlawful assembly, and of
taking part in a riot. Although it would not
become him, after what had been said by the
Lord Chief Justice to make any observations with re-
spect to what had fallen from him in answer to the ap-
plication of his Learned. Friend, he might be allowed to
say, on the part of himself' and of his Learned Friends,
that if be had been called upon to reply to the objec-
tions urged, that he should have stated that he should
feel it his duty to adopt no course in this proceeding
which might be calculated to embarrass the defendant
in his defence, and that, as his Lordship had said, he
should confine the prosecution to the proof' of the main
charge, sedition, though the indictment contained three
charges, to each of which it branched off. The
charge, therefore, which the defendant would have to
answer would be that of seditious speaking, taking part
in an unlawful assembly, and with being guilty of riot—
the judgment of the Court upon all of which would be
precisely the same, but with respect to the count charg-
ing riot, it was in the discretion of the Court to super_
add the punishment of hard labour. Before he pro-
ceeded to state the facts of the case against the defendant,
which ho should do as briefly as possible, they would,
he trusted, forgive him if he availed himself of
this opportunity, so different from those that
presented themselves on ordinary occasions, of
making one or two observations upon the law appli-
cable to cases of this description; and although, of
course, in the formation of your opinion you will be
governed by the direction of his Lordship—and if I am
wrong in any particular I beg of the Court to correct
me—yet, standing as he did in a public position, he
might be excused if he stated, from authority, what the
law was, that others besides the defendants might take
warning as to the consequences which they would
entail upon themselves by acting as he had done,
and in order, if they did render themselves
amenable to the law, that they might not
plead ignorance when they were punished for taking
part in proceedings of this nature. The first count in
the indictment charged the defendant with sedition, and
the offence had not been improperly defined by the Com-
missioners appointed to inquire and report upon the na-
ture of the offence. And the offence was settled and
defined as this—as tending to injure and endanger the
political constitution of this country by violent public
tumults, by exciting discontent in the minds of the
people, and by thereby exposing the Sovereign and public
functionaries to public contempt, and thus exciting sud-
den political changes by unlawful means. The
Commissioners added that such offences might be re-
garded as " assaults upon the constitution, and though
they may not threaten destruction to the Crown and
Government, ought nevertheless to be punished." And,
in truth, although the offence be inferior in character to
the high and grave offence of treason, and though the
punishment differed greatly from that awarded to the
higher crime, yet, no doubt, sedition was an offence of a
most serious character, and did require to be repressed
upon every occasion by the strong arm of the law. The
late Lord Tindal in addressing a jury upon this subject
clearly defined the danger of the offence, how easily an
innocent person might be made to suffer for the guilty.
He looked upon the testimony of that eminent Judge as
of the highest kind, and as tending to the honour of that
professiou of which he (the Attorney-General) was but
an humble member, and to that of the public. He said in
effect that every person who was knowingly present,
and knowingly took part in a meeting which was made
the means of addressing language to the persons so as-
sembled of' a violent and intemperate nature were
guilty of taking part in an unlawful assembly,
and though unaccompanied by any circumstances of
violence to give it the character of a seditious meeting,
yet, the mere fact of being present at similar meetings at
which such violent and intemperate language was ad-
dressed to the assembly, constituted an attendance at an
unlawful assembly, or the second charge its this indict-
ment. The Learned A ttorney-General then read the
charge of Chief Justice Tindal at Bristol, at the trial of
the Bristol rioters, in extenso—(as it has recently ap-
peared in the newspapers we do not think it necessary
to introduce it into our columns.) He thought their
Lordships would agree with him that this was a full and
clear exposition of the law applicablo to charges of this
description—namely, sedition, but also of the conse-
quences of designedly attending a meeting of this de-
scription, where seditious words were addressed to the
people assembled. But there were other circumstances
that materially constituted such assemblies unlawful, and
as they were fully and clearly set forth
in the charge of Mr. Baron Alderson at the
special commission at Monmouth, at the trial of Mr.
Vincent in the year 1839. lie did not know that he
could do better than read it. Having read the address,
he proceeded to say—That Learned Baron said, pro-
ceedings such as those adopted at assemblies like that
out of which the present proceedings had arisen, " con-
stituted an assembly of a highly dangerous character,
which ought to be suppressed by the strong arm of the
law." But there was a further circumstance which
ought to be well known to the public—if persons went
to such assemblies from mere idle curiosity, thus swell-
ing the concourse of people, creating and aggravating the
alarm, they had no right to complain if in the confusion of
the disturbance, though perfectly innocent, they were suf-
ferers. There was yet this further consequence resulting
from attending meetings of this description. If a person
went to one of them from idle curiosity they must take
the whole of the consequences if they were punished
with those who had confederated-together to call toge-
ther designedly tumultuous public assemblies. He made
this observation in that public court in order that those
who felt disposed to take ,a part in such unlawful
assemblies might know the consequences to
which they were exposing themselves. It' those who
were present at the meeting at which Fussell spoke the
words imputed to him were proved to have acted in
concert, they would all be amenable to the law. The

believed as many as 2,000 or 3,000—were present.
A van was drawn out into the centre of the meeting,
and two persons addressed the assembly before'
Fussell appeared. The first speaker was u person
named Williams, whose words he would read to
show that the assembly was an unlawful one,
not for the purpose of showing that the defendant
was responsible for words uttered .by another.
" My friends," said Williams, " the bloody aristocracy
has done its work at last. Although we have got a
Government spy amongst us, we don't care. That man,
I know, has transported his own sons; but keep the
peace, my friends. If any one disturbs you, I hope you
have sufficient energy to defend yourselves. Now
keep the peace, and I will take you to a place where
you will meet five times the number of men collected
here. When I give you a signal I want you to fall into
marching order four abreast and follow where I Rill lead
you, no matter where. I will take you to a place where
you will meet ten times more men than are here, and there
you will be advised what to do. I don't fear banishment
any more than that brave, noble, and patriotic man,
Mitchel; he does not care for it. Mitchel has been
sacrificed by the ruling Government. He has been
murdered by those base, brutal, and bloody Whigs,'
through the instrumentality of a packed jury and par-
tisan judge." Fussell, as he had said, was in the van.
Williams was followed by a man named Macarthy, who
said he agreed with Williams with respect to his con-
demnation of the Whigs. He asked would the peo-
ple of Ireland allow John Mitchel to be taken
trom his native land; if they allowed him to be
taken from his native laud many other brave men
would fall victims to the diabolical Gagging Bill, and it
was now the time for all who valued liberty to strke the
blow. Ireland would rise in arms. If that country had
been quiet, it was only that it might recruit its strength,
and make a bold effort to release itself from the tyranny
at the proper time." Let the jury recollect that this
language was addressed to the lower orders of society—
persons suffering from the depression of trade at that time,
which was considerably aggravated by their being there
at all, and who naturally brooded over their wrongs,
whether real or supposed, and were, therefore,
the more readily open to the mischievous designs of
those who addressed them. Then the defendant Fussell
said, "A base Government had by means of a
packed jury and subservient judges succeeded in
obtaining the conviction of honest John Mitchel.
John Mitchel had asserted that the Queen
had forgotten her duty to her country, and
he declared the same opinion. If she neglected her
duty they should refuse to recognise her. Government,
it had been said, had acted upon expediency, but that
was a ridiculous plea for conduct so arbitrary and
disgrseeful. He wished to impress upon the
meeting that there was ono safe way of
getting rid of rulers who forget their duty
to their country, and he would openly avow
what he meant—he meant by private assassination.
—(Sensation.) That it was that made the Emperor of
Austria fly, and that it was that should make other
crowned rulers fly also. lie had five sons, and he would
disown either one of them who refused to assassinate any
parties who were instrmental in banishing him from his
native land for such an offence as that for which Mr.
Mitchel had been convicted." Afterwards Williams
addressed the meeting, and at his request they marched
four abreast through the principal streets of the me
tropolis until a late hour, causing the greatest
terror and alarm in the breasts of the people. The
Learned Gentleman then went on to say, that the Go•
vernmenti having had these sentiments brought before
them, felt it their duty to proceed against them. No
notice having been given of the intended meeting, a
short-hand writer was not sent to it, and they had there-
fore to depend on the testimony of a person who at-
tended to prepare a condensed report for the newspapers,
and who took down such sentences in abort-hand as ap-
peared to him the most prominent, and his testimony
would be corroborated by another who attended for a
similar purpose. The matter first attracted the atten
tion of rho
Government through the press, and they
then set about making the necessary inquiries for the
reporter at the different ffi
newspaper o ces. lie appre-

serve the constitution, whilst, on the other
hand, the crowds that thus congregated to the terror
of the peaceably-disposed, retarded that improve-
ment for which they called so loudly. Those anxious
for fair and calm discussion, and of gradual progression,
condemned such conduct ; nothing so greatly impeded
the progress of fair, just, and proper reform as the at-
tempts which had been made by violence to wrest from
the constituted authorities what a certain portion of the
people required. lie felt no doubt the jury in this case
would do their duty.
Mr. Richard Kemmis examined by Mr. WELSBY—
Is Crown Solicitor of Ireland. Produced the record of
conviction of John Mitchell for felony. (The examined
copy was put in.)
Frederick Town Fowler was then examined by Mr.
BODKIN. He said, I have been in the habit for some
years of attending to report public meetings. I re-
member attending a meeting which was held on Clerken-
well-green on the 29th of May last. It took place
about half past six o'clock in the evening. I saw the
defendant Fussell there. He was in a van, in which
there were about 18 or 20 persons. Altogether there
were about 3,000 persons present. The first person who
spoke at the meeting was a person named Williams. I
took a note of part of what he said, but not all of it. I
merely took such portions of it as were necessary for a
newspaper report. (The witness then read the part of
the speech commencing " The bloody aristocracy has
done its work," which was read in the opening address.
He then read extracts from the speech of M'Carthy,
who was the next speaker.) Fussell, the present de-
fendant, then addressed the meeting. He said, the
Government had succeeded in convicting honest John
Mitchel, and then went on to say "how have they accom-
plished it? Why, by packed juries and partizan judges. I
tell Lord John Russell I have no sympathy with his dam-
nable Government. If the Queen does not recognise the
people, the people must forget to recognise the Queen.
If John Mitchel is sent out of this country, every Irish-
man must rise and revenge the insult, or they will no
lunger be worthy of the name they bear. The Govern-
ment is not worth the support of any honest man. It is
too contemptible to be recognised, and you must use
your best endeavours to overturn it. And now I wish
to impress upon you one safe way of getting rid of our
bad rulers, who forget their duty to their country. I
openly avow that I recommend private assassination.
What made the Emperor of Austria fly ? Why, the
fear of assassination ; and it is by that means that we
must get rid of our bad rulers. I would disown any one
of my own sons who would not assassinate any one who
was instrumental in banishing me from my country."
Williams then asked the people to fall into marching
order, which they readily did. The procession then
went along Aylesbury-street, St. John's-street, Old-
street-road, to Finsbury-square, where it remained
for about a quarter of an hour or more. The people
then proceeded through Long-lane to Smithfield, and
from thence down Snow-hill and along Holborn, to the
Land and Labour Bank of O'Connor, where they gave
three cheers. They then went to Leicester-square, and
from thence to the Chartist Assembly Room near Soho-
square, where left them. There were about 3,000
people altogether when the procession started. The
procession appeared to create a great deal of fear and
terror in the minds of the people along the line of
march; many shut up their shops and closed their
doors.

Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant ALLEN—I was on
the waggon. There were three speakers, and the
whole speaking did not occupy more than twenty mi-
nutes at the outside. My note is in abbreviated long
hand, and is my usual mode of taking down speeches to
be inserted in the newspapers. (The witness here
handed in his notes to the Learned Counsel, and
pointed out to him the latter passage of Fussell's
speech.) Thirty or forty of the best reporters on
the London press take notes in that way.
I have been employed on all the London
papers. I have been employed on the pines,
I attend meetings on my own account, and send in my
reports to the different newspapers, and if they use
them they pay me for them. 1 have communicated with
the editor of the Times personally with respect to taking
reports of meetings. Ido not know that I have ever
spoken to the editor himself, but I have seen him dozens
of times. I have been a reporter six or seven years,
and some portion of the time was editor and reporter of
the Railway Telegraph. I have never attended a police
office as a reporter, but about thirteen years ago I at-
tended a police court as a defendant, for having run
away from my master, to whom I was an apprentice.
I have also been charged with felony at a police court,
in consequence of an action I had against the Morning
Chronicle. I was charged with putting the ash of a
lighted cigar into the letter-box of that newspaper, and
the case came before Mr. Ball, at Bow-street, who dis-
missed me, because there were no grounds for the
charge. I commenced an action against the Morn-
ing Chronicle for 481., but not having sufficient evi-
dence to substantiate the case I abandoned it.
There was a case of arson in which I was a party in re-
lation to the Sun Fire Office. I was insured for 500 Z,
and the house was burnt down. I claimed 4101., but
never got it. I have heard it said by counsel that I had
been guilty of arson, but I never pay any attention to
what they say.—(Laughter.) I never absconded for
having defrauded Messrs. Spicer, the paper dealers. I
am not aware whether I owe them anything. I
was editor of the Theatrical Chronicle, but not the pro-
prietor. I never bought 401. or 451. worth of paper from
them on the understanding that it was for that paper,
and then sold it next day for 101. I have been a bank-
rupt, but obtained my certificate immediately, and
handed in my assets to the amount of 3001. more than
my debts. I report for all the papers and send copy on
the chance of its being inserted. lam paid by the line.
I never was in • the employ of the Blackwell Railway
I attended nearly all of the Chartist meetings, and re-
ported some of them. I was engaged by the Express
to report the meeting on Kennington-common. I never
send
,to papers when they have their own reporters
present.
Re-examined—lf I send to a paper what is not true,
one may send for years without having a line in.
Henry Potter was next examined by the ATTORNEY-
GENERAL—I am a reporter, and report for all the daily
papers. I report in short-hand. I attended the meeting
on the 29th of May. I arrived there a few minutes
before seven o'clock. I was on the van. At the com-
mencement of the proceedings I should say there
were about 2,000 or 3,000 persons present. I took
a note of part of what was said at the meeting.
(The witness here read the notes he had taken of
Williams' speech; also the notes of M'Carthy's and
Fussell's, which were quoted by the Attorney-General
in his opening.) The people then fell into marching
order at the request of Williams. The witness then
described the progress of the rocession to Dean-street,
Soho, as detailed by the last witness.
Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant ALLEN—I was not
e.ngaged by any paper to attend the meeting. I have
lived in the same house with the last wit-
ness since the beginning of the year. I did

and I another portion. I can't exactly say now which

meeting. The whole that I wrote was put into the
Morning Chronicle. I swear I never compared notes with
Fowler.

Horace Harvey, policeman, was next called and exa-
mined by Mr. CLARKE-4ttended the meeting onClerken-
well-green on the 29th of May. A man named Williams

four abreast." I saw Williams in front of the proces-
et hen I returned
proces-
sion as it went through Compton-street. He said, ad-
dressing the people, that if they were friends
to the cause they would fall into the procession.
The witness then detailed the progress of the procession
to Dean-street, and also the route it took in returning
back to Smithfield. On returning, opposite the Dispatch
office in Fleet-street, some of the leaders cried out," Let
us smash it in;" but they did not carry out the threat.
When they got to the corner of Bridge-street, Black-
friars, some suggested that they should attack the Times
office. They then went through Farringdon-street to
Smithfield, and from thence to Red-cross-street, where
Williams addressed the people from a coffee: shop.
window. He said they had had a meeting in spite of
" finality Jack" (meaning Lord J. Russell), and that
they would continue meeting until their Irish brethren
had obtained their liberty, whatever might be said by
Lord John and the other members of the Government.
M'Carthy also spoke from the window, and told the
people they would " do it " to-morrow, and advised them
to come armed with guns and pistols. Some one in the
crowd said, "Lead us on, and. we will do it to night.'
The City police then interfered, and dispersed the people.
The witness was cross-examined by Mr. ALLEN,
without, however, eliciting any material fact that had
not been already given in evidence.
James Collins, of the City police, examined by Mr.
WELSBY—On the 29th of May last my division was
ordered to go to Red-cross-street. There were between
3,000 and 4,000 people assembled opposite Cartwright's
coffee-shop, from a window of which some one was ad-
dressing them. We had orders to disperse the mob,
which we did, without using our truncheons, but many
of them assembled again in Golden-lane. I there had a
brickbat thrown in my face. There were four police-
man wounded besides myself. Several Metropolitan
policemen came to their assistance. Hot water was
thrown at some of the police from the windows of the
houses, and also from some of the courts in the lane.
James
.Terry, a glass-maker in St. John-street, was
then examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL. My shop is
situated close to the Green, and I could see persons go-
ing to the meeting on the 29th May. I was not alarmed
myself, but my family were, and many of my neighbours,
I shut up my shop. I saw the procession turn out
of Aylesbury-street.
is I think there were about 600 per-
sons present. That all I saw. I cannot say whether
there were more.

Joshua Pleasant, a hatter, residing in Aylesbury-street,
Clerkenwell, said on the day in question he and his
family were much alarmed at the number of people
passing. They saw the horse troops pass, and of course
they IN ere alarmed.—(Laughter.) Ile consequently
followed the example of his neighbours, and shut up his
shop.
Cross•examined by Mr. ALLEN—The people forming
the procession were of the worst class, and in conse-
quence of their proceedings, serious injury was done to
his business.

By Chief Justice WILDE—I do not know the names
of the speakers; but they were of the worst possible
class.—(Laughter.)
This concluded the case for the prosecution, and the
jury retired fora few minutes for refreshments.
