LAW INTBLLIGENCg.
COURT or KING'S BIiNCI-Ii MAT•
TUB KING V. HUNT AND OTHERS.

This morning 'every avenue- leading to tbc
Court was crowded by..persons of all descriptions,
anxious to hear the decision of the Bench in this
case, that has for so long occupied the public at-
tention. At half past ten the Judges took their
seats, and immediately after Hunt, Bamford,
Johnson, Ucaly, Btc.,entered the Court.
Mr.-Dr-ALTRI' having called over their names,
the CHIEF JUSTICIT, observed, that this case had;
occupied the time of the Court an unusual length
of rime ; in giving,his judgment on it, he should
be as brief as possible. The Learned Chief Jus-
tice then proceeded to advert to the various cir-
cumstances urged as grounds for the granting a rule
to strew canse,why a new trial shouldnot take place:
he took into his view the intention, the assembling,
and the dispersion of the Meeting. • With respect
to the banners not being produced, parole evi-
dence had been given in this case, and if was
usual to receive it in similar ones.. With respect
to the Meeting at-Smithfield, the paper .contain-
ing the Resolutions had been received front one of
the defendants, and it corresponded with those
Resolutions which were heard read by the witness
at Manchester ; a stranger, not at all connected
with the town, and who had taken tine Chair at a
similar Meeting at Smithfield, in London, had
been advertised to take a similar situation at Man-
chester ; could it therefore be supposed oiherwise,
under all the circumstances, but that there was
some connexion between the Meetings? With re-
spect to the soldiers, it was not their-conduct that
was under enquiry, and it would have been impro-
per to have introduced them in evidence. lie pro-
ceeded to examine the law of evidence,'and con-
chided by declaring, tinaz, under all the 'circum-
stances, he saw uo reason for distur Laing the
verdict already given.

Mr. Justice l3AuLa'v here declared, he should
wait until he heard what the other learned Judges
said before he gave his opinion.
Mr. Justice Hoer:cm) was precisely of the samo
opinion as the Chief
Mr, Justice BEST had never entertained a doubt
from the first, and therefore entirely concurred.
Mr. Justice BAteav, at some length, went over
the various points Of evidence, and declared that,
as it was not the soldiers that were on trial, he
could not permit them to be adverted to in evi.
dence; if they had misconducted themselves, their
conduct was open to Mph y, and it would have
been prejudging them. With respect to the Les-
simony concerning :he Banners, it was consistent
with the lae:s of evidence, which were founded
in wisdom, and all the other points were equally
consistent. Thu Learned Judge could not sec
any cause she,vn f,r disttirbin,g the verdict.
The.ATTORNEV-GENERAL then rose, •sii,d said,
he shank, if the Court pleased, move tor judg-
ment now, or, if it was more convenient for the
defendants, and the Court consented, lie would
wait a short time.

HUNT hoped the Court would alkw the
time usual iu such cases to prepare for their
Lordships' judgment.

Abet some desultory conversation be,..ween the
Court, the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, and Dcleinfanis,
it was agteed that it ihuttill stand ovcr utvil Sa-
turday or Monday next,. on one of which days
sentence will be passed.
