Mr. TaLIMRD rowed the Cou-t to the cnnrce of the
morning. and said he was instructed by a Gentlemao,
whose name did not transpire, t ask the advice of the
emit under the following circomstarices:—A hill I:.r
felony was about to be prettrueJ to the Brand Jury
against Ronl ind Stephenson, and hi. (Mr. Trlf-rd's)
client was one amongst many other soli .rtiinates who
had soffered. by that person's dells quvnees, having
been the loser of Et:hever Bill' to a considetabie
amount, which had been taken off by Stephenson. Mr.
Gates, therefore, had suhrm,iaeJ hio to ael.eas before;
the Grand Jury to give evidence, and he was inioinied
that it he did it struslJ materially prejudice his claim,
as to any future legal proceedings he m.ght this,k ne-
cessary t r adopt. He had objected i 6 give evidence,
and he understood an application would be made to'
the other Couto in the course of the day as would com-
pel him to attend. Under these circumstances, he
wished to ask the advice ► f the Court how to act ?

The Cobl3lolll SEIMIANT sa d he could not give any
advice on the subject ; the gentlem .8 knew the conse
quences of not attending the subice iA, and he was tlle
best judge whether or not it would be to his interest iu
obeying it. He could give no opinion a. to whether it
would prejudice any future legal proceedings.

Mr. BOLLAND (addressing the JuJgr) .40, that on

the part of the prisoner, reminded the Court that the
Grand Jury bad broke up, and that the Counsel for the
prosecution ought to ha.e seen that the indictment was
properly drawn up before the discharge of tt e Grand
Jury. Of course the inmeentors intent to follow up
this applicati.)n by another, namely. that the prisoner
might be de:rained until neat Sessions.
Mr. HOLLAND• 4 shall make a conditional applies.
Lion. It tl,e Court on reading the depositions think
there is sufficient grounds stated in them to waln int the
detention of the prisoner, it would, of course, act upon

no objection to lti. being admitted to bail.
