Mr. BADDELEY applied to the Court for a ruleb.

O
Rev. Mr. Peter Daly, Roman Catholic priest of G:.00,
in Ireland, on whose behalf he made the
Mr. Daly was a gentleman, the Learned Counsel sboo
of the highest character and respectability, who had , •
a resident in Gale ay for upwards of 30 years. lie woo

as the vicar of the diocese of ;Galway, t° joitf
office he was elected by the Roman Catholic

of that diocese upwards of twenty years age, 1114)
which he had had under his spiritual care ,
superintendence a population of upwards of ten th '

offices in Galway, he being one of the commissioners 4$
the town appointed under the local Act of Polio:13'o
for the regulation of the town, an office to which be
efov
elected about three years ago by the other conemissiur
under the Act. He also held the situation of hel'..
commissioner of the town under the provisions of fitea
other local Act of Parliament, to which he was elect
by the other commissioners, and he was lastly a clirecto
of the Galway Gas-light and Coke Company. Il2_,„de
the situation which ho held in society was such asrof
it important, not only for himself but for the benefit be
those under his care, that his character should net 1d
wantonly assailed, or if it was assailed, that he shufor
,
adopt the earliest and most effectual measure
vindicating his reputation. It appeared ir.
the affidavits which had been filed in sue'
it
port of this motion that his attention was called t° "
about the end of April, some ten days after the libel le
question had been published; he procured a copy °f
paper and found to his dismay that it contained a 135 to
graph reflecting seriously and wantoni)' on his chorea,
the writer taking advantage of the attack:to assail througt":
him the sacred nature of the religion of which the 9,0
Gentleman was a professor. The libel professed 10
a commentary upon the report of a speech stlf;
posed to have been delivered by Mr.
at a public dinner held in Galway. It 1:51:6,
fessed to set out part of that speech in which d
Daly was supposed to have stated that he had propkcat
on some former occasion to urge upon the country tmd.
a certain number of persons should be sent to Engl°l3
namely, 40 to Liverpool, 30 to Bristol, and 30 to Porte'
mouth for the purpose of setting fire to the 5134)6 ef
those harbours, and thereby, if possible, destroying 1,3/r,
Majesty's Government. The - paper assumed that A,l
Daly had made this speech, and then it proese"e
to comment upon not only Mr. Daly's character,
but upon the religion of which he was a PP,ebse
and professor. Now the affidavits would show `cie
Court that Mr. Daly never directly or indirectly 100
any such speech, or made any such recommeneleti°:
but he held all such proceedings in the utmost abbot"
rence and indignation. The libel was set out in t'd
affidavits and the paragraph in question, which occurred
in page 156 of the paper published on the 19th of lir'
last, which was as follows :
"A CHRISTIAN HERO.—HIS CROSS AND LUCIFER'D°
" The world knows nothing of its greatest man, 86',Y;
Poet Taylor; Poet Wordsworth—see Escursion—having
said the same thing before him. Here is the Rey, Pete;
Daly, Catholic priest of the town of Galway, burnin
like a lamp in a sepulchre, when he ought to shine lip."
a star in the firmament. Daly made a truly heroi°
speech—a real poteen oration—last week at a dinner i°
Galway; in which speech he crumbled Lord John ntli
sell to dust, crumbled him as a giant's fingers wollri
crumble pound-cake. And then Daly said that in
be bad given advice that would have overturned .E°g'
land—
" He proposed that there should be taken a hundred
picked men—each man litre himself 11—and that forty 4),1
these should be sent to Liverpool, thirty to Bristol, °-
thirty to Portsmouth, and on a certain day and hour
set fire to and burn down the English
fleet! and at o°B
blow destroy the Government.'
" The proposal was heroic; but where get a hundred
men of such sublime, ennobling powers as priest Daly
We doubt whether even Ireland—prolific mother °'
Christian heroes—could supply them. Nevertheless, till
mind is uplifted and enlarged by a contemplation of
picture painted in flames by the hero that might base
been. Beautiful, too, to imagine the advent of Daly t°
our shores; to see him—the teacher of peace and good;
will to all men—with his cross and his lucifer-box, 1011
on the quay of all-unconscious Liverpool; to watch bias
with his midnight, pinther tread, stealing down to the
docks, and then—and then to see the heavens red with
conflagration !
" Ought we not to love Ireland, that gives us such
priestly goodness—ought we not to hug to our bosoms fb
faith of which such men are the depositaries, and ougb',
we not as Englishmen to be especially proud of the con'
tempt—the offspring of our strength—that takes n°
more heed of the gabble of such wretches than the lioo
heeds the vermin that shelter in his mane?"

Now, of course (the Learned Counsel continued). it
could not bo necessary for him to comment upon that
passage in the paper as being a most gross attack opos!
Mr. Daly, while there could bo no doubt at all 055
Mr. Daly was the person pointed at, because the P*;
ragraph distinctly culled him the Rev. Mr. Daly. of
Galway. The affidavit stated that there was no other
person of that name residing in Galway, nor was there
any other Roman Catholic priest, named DidYt
living within the county of Galway, and the'r,v°,
could, therefore, be no doubt that Mr. Pe
was the person intended. There could be no
doubt, also, of the libel being calculated not only seriously
to affect his character, but to destroy his means of uso'
fulness, and, if possible, to rain him altogether. Indeed,
several malicious parties had cut out slips from the
Elinor
paper containing this paragraph, and sent them
mously to various persons of rank and station
Galway, thinking, no doubt, to expose the reverend
gentleman to obloquy and scandal. Nothing could be
more complete than the way in which the reverend
gentleman denied ever having uttered such a sentimen'a
or ever having in the remotest degree entertaio,e,
it for a single moment; and, therefore, it ,`40119
perfectly clear that the paragraph was a most atrocious
and wanton attack upon his character. It was u.',„
without the slightest foundation, because the affidavits
would show his Lordship that a little while before Ow
libel was published a public dinner was given at Galivah
at which certain speeches were made which were a r.-

exp(-eted off next spring tide, with little damage.
