to having in his own possession these se-
ditious papers, and posting the threatening
notice to which the attention of the jury had
been peculiarly drawn, and upon which he could con-
vict other innocent persons. He had pleaded guilty
of the actual posting of the very notices, of which he
gave information to the police that he knew the parties
who were guilty, and was prepared to charge them.
They would prove upon his own statement that he
was a person who wandered about twenty-two coun-
ties of Ireland, having no fixed residence and no occu-
pation. It would be clear to their minds that he did
.this in order to implicate men by false charges ; Go-
vernment were very anxious that persons of that de-
scription should be punished in an exemplary man-
ner ; and they would then give them evidence to sa-
tisfy them beyond a doubt of the truth of the fact
stated.
Constable Thomas Judge sworn and examined—ls
stationed in Fermoy. Recollects the prisoner coming
to the barracks. Ile told him that he was after tra-
velling 22 counties, that he had no residence, and
that he was in the habit of getting a livelihood by
giving information ; he also told him that he had
charged a man in Waterford ; the man had since
been bund innocent; the paper (they were tacked to
the indictment and handed to the constable) pur-
ported to be pass words and rules ofunlaWful societies ;
he told witness that such papers might be found in
the houses of men of the names of Barry, Connell,
and others ; they could not be found, he added, unless
he himself went with them ; the inspector then began
to suspect him ; he complained of a sore foot, and
was in the act of removing them from his shoe, when
witness perceived theih in his hand and seized them.
There were in them the names of the inhabitants of
some of the houses in which, according to his infor-
mation, they would be found. When discovered, he
said they were copies of papers which he had found
in other houses.

PRICE sd.

The Jury immediately found him guilty.
The usual sentence of vagrancy —transportation for
seven years, if he dil not find bail for his regular
conduct—was then passed by his Lordship ; the
sentence of seven years' transportation for the crime
to which he had pleaded guilty, to take effect after
the conditional one be undergone.

POLICE. INTELLIGENCE.
(yESTELID )

MANSION-HOUSE.

EXTRAORDINARY APPLICATION.—A_ tall, elderly,
military-looking man, giving the name of Biehen
Hilton, who stated that he was a Frenchman, pro-
ceeded to read to Sir J. Pirie, the sitting alderman,
a sort of speech from a written paper.
He commenced by saying that he was well known
to the French Government and the French Embassy;
that in France he was, in 1830, colonel of the 65th
regiment of the line ; that he raised at his own ex-
pense, and paid from his own pocket, the two regiments
called Voluntaires de la Charte, and in other respects
contributed to the downfal of Charles X., and the
establishing Louis Philippe on the throne of France,
who had thus become his (complainant's) debtor to
the amount of 6,0001. Louis Philippe was well aware
that he had aided in levelling his road to the steps of
the throne, and at first duly acknowledged it; but
when he got more firmly established he forgot the
claim, and on pressing for it he was banished.
Alderman PIXIE wished complainant to discon-
tinue reading, and say briefly what be wanted.
Complainant—A warrant to apprehend Louis
Philippe, as soon as he lands in this country, for a
debt of honour, amounting to 6,0001.
Alderman PIXIE—The King of the French will
not be here for a month; but we cannot interfere in
the matter. You must apply to a civil court.
The applicant then left the Court, saying he would
take the magistrate's advice.
