THE BARON DE VlDlL.—After the baron had
been committed to take his trial he w
to the gaol of Newgate in a cab, in as at once conveyed
the charge of Thornton
and Williamson, the detectives. During the journey it
appears that he did not say a word, and upon his arrival at
the gaol Nr. Wontner, his
after the baron had been formalsolicitor
lyreceived into
hoi I consultation'
of Mr. Jonas, the
together upon the subject, as' they
bad a s
-as understood, of the neces-
sary stops to be taken to procure the liberation of the pri-
sone e upon bail. The restraint of personal liberty to which he
had been subjected appeared to be very irksome to the baron,
and he requested his professional adviser to take the neces-
sary steps by applying to a judgo to have him released upon
bail as soon as possible. The public is aware that prisoners
before trial are allowed many facilities that are denied to
them after conviction, and although the gaol regulations
are very strict, still it may be as well to state, that under
the present arrangements the baron will not have to undergo
any degrading association with other prisoners. He is, as
already stated, committed upon the charge of feloniously
wounding his son with intent to murder him, which is a
capital charge ; but it appears that a conviction has never
been known to have taken place for this particular offence
except in cases where a deadly weapon, such as a pistol or a
knife, was made use of, audit is the opinion of well-informed
legal authorities, that in the event of any conviction taking
place, it could only be for the offence of unlawfully wound -
ing,which Is only a misdemeanour, and subjects any person
convictod of it W two yours' imprimmezit,
