TRIAL OF THE CHARTIST
CONSPIRATORS.

CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
CONTINUATION OF THE TRIAL OF CUFFAY,
FAY, AND LACY.
Mr. Baron Platt and Mr. Justice Williams took their
seats on the Bench at ten o'clock.
Cuffey, Fay, and Lacy were then placed at the bar.
Thomas Powell, the approver, was the first witness
called. He recapitulated the greater part of his evi-
dence, and, with respect to the prisoner Fay, stated that
the first time ho saw him at the meeting was on Friday,
the 28th of July, at Hopkins's Coffee-house, Saffron-
hill. He came there as an Irish delegate. A return
was given in at that meeting of the number of fighting
men. The meeting was adjourned until the 30th, at the
same place, when Fay was again present. The next
meeting took place at the Dispatch Coffee-house, Bride-
lane, at which Fay and about thirty other persons were
present. At this part of his testimony the witness ap-
plied to the Court to have a witness, who occupied a

Lacy was proposed as a " fit and proper person" to go
to Manchester as a delegate, and a person, named Bas-
sett, was directed to communicate with Lacy on the matter.
Rose, the secretary, gave him some money to pay the
expenses of the journey. A circ&lar had been re-
ceived from Manchester, pointing out the advantage of
sending a delegate to that town, and asking how far the
London delegates were disposed to favour such a pur-
pose. A meeting was held on Sunday, the 6th, at the
Dispatch Coffee-house. Cuffey was present. At it a
person, named Page, said Mr. Bond Hughes, the short-
hand writer, deserved a sound trashing.—(Laughter.)
The next meeting was held on the 7th, at Dennis's
Coffee-house, Seven vials, which was attented by Fay,
„cikififgy, and others. Payne read a letter from Lacy, de,-)
was on tWergerseasaY.; 'tre oth, at the Lord Denman,
which was attended by Fay and Coffey. A letter was
read from Lacy by Payne, who said he would remain in
the north as long as was necessary. A meeting was
held at the Orange Tree on the 14th, at which
Coffey was present. A return of the members
and their friends, possessing from five hundred to
600 cartridges, and that there were 5,000 fighting
Chartists, and 5,000 confederates, was given in, and a
deputation of two was directed to wait upon the en-
gineers of the North-Wtfiss=dthteon

tary. The meeting was adjourned to the Lacy,
se
to the 16th. About forty attended. Cuffey,
and
Fay were present. Lacy told him that the men o
Bir-
mingham,f
Manchester, and, he believed, Liverpool,
were ready, and would be up and doing that night ; that
he bad been watched all day by the police, and that on
coming out of his door a boy came up and told him so, I
but that he had given them the double, and had
reached that place in safety. That was the first time
he saw Lacy ; he asked him his name, and he
told him. Brewster distributed colours, and he believed
Mullins, then president, also did so. Fay, about three-
quarters of an hour after the distribution of the colours,
came in, bringing a man named Donaldson with him,
who was not a delegate. Cuffey said to Mullins, who
acted as spokesman, "Now, Mr. Chairman, you had
better give your instructions." Mullins (lid so. " Our
friend, Mr. Lacy, has informed us that the men of Bir
mingham and Manchester will be up to night, and we
have no reason to doubt the correctness of his informa-
tion, and, therefore, gentlemen, you must come out to-
morrow night to fight, and strike the blow ; it is neces•
sary you should speak out boldly and fearlessly, for
there must be no flinching in the matter." Cuffey said,
"My time is short—my men are waiting. I tell the
western division, you had better put it round,l and let
them answer `yes' or no.' Mullins did so, and all
save two, including witness, said yes. "
(The trial was proceeding when our report left.)

INCENDIARY FIRE.—A fire occurred on Wednes-
day at Caythorpe, nine miles from the town of Notting-
ham, on the farm of Mr. Faulke, and nearly all the
corn and hay stacks were destroyed. It is believed to
be the aot of an incendisry.
