(Mc Watmett niigerved, " indeed, Morgan' von may safely
say it is.") Blackwell insisted that Ellen Slattery was the

son in tbe kitchen, in a delicate state of health.

FOR TIM DRFRNei.
Sheriff Watson was called, and examined by Mr. Wag-
gon- —Witness is acquainted with Dr. Caret; knows Tao.
ilv; Carey was in gaol at and heroes, last Christmas ; saw
Tuohy and Carey in company together in gaol before last
Christmas ; saw them speaking together in the gad yard;
Tuohy is very well known in Limerick; Carey was some
months before Christmas in gaol. Witness was then asked
from his knowledge of Dr. Carey's character, did be con-
sider him a persna entitled to credit on his oath in a Court
of Jnstke? The witness applied to the Court to know
crest be answer that question, and being told that be
shoats!, be said that if he (witness) were on a Jary, he
would not believe what the Doctor would swear."
(.roes-examined by Mr. Jackson.—Witness had no
ing out or personal dispute with Dr. Carey ; bad no record
against hies, nor one in which he bad an interest; was
Sheriff with Mr. Taylor; never seised any property of Dr.
Carey ; issued warrants on marked writs against Dr. Carey;
he (Carey) assaulted one of the Sheriff's Bailiffs, and
wounded him with a sword ; both the Bailiff and Carey in-
dicted each other, and were tried; Carey was acquitted,
an.t the Bailiff convicted (contrary to the charge of the
Judge); witness was examined for the Bailiff; bad many
writs against Carey, and always Jutted warrants against
him, not wishing to come in collision with him; there
were many suits between Carey and several people, and
many wrangle' between him and former Sheriffs; witness
alleged that Carey wrote an anonymous letter to an Insur-
ance Company ; witness saw the letter. which he wonld
prove to be Carey's 'band writing; the Insurance upon
which Carey wrote, was eff-eted three years before; would
not, on his oath, if on a Jury, believe Carey; most of the
present Jury knew his character as well as witness does;
would not &shim any injury. nor would he take trouble to
do Carey *service.
James Clelland examines! by Mr. Waggett.—Witness
had the good lock to be acquainted with Dr. Carey; had
some differences with him; witness is now on his oath;
has lived in Limerick nearly 13 years; knows Dr. Carey's
general character in Limerick pretty well; from his
kilos Is.dge of that general character could not believe him
on his oath. _ _

Cross•examined by Mr. O'Longlilin—Can't say if Dr.
Carey would believe witness on his oath; he ought to hhve
a better opinion of witness than witness of him ; is certain
that Di. Carey would believe witness if he (Carey) was in
a inry-box ; Dr. Carey is not of a forgiving disposition ;
thinks he would believe him if he (witness) swore that Dr.
Carey was not worthy of belief on his oath; bad several
suits with Dr. Carey, but not more than a Scotsman could
pet through ; had one against him; another stopped by
Dr. Carey's taking the benefit of the Insolvent Act ; but
can't say, bow many Dr. Carey had against him ; it is three
years since litigation commenced ; knows Carey eight
years; had a good opinion of him at first, bnt changed it
at last ; be changed it before litigation commenced ; is 12
years in Ireland; had always as much money as served
bias; it was both a good and bad concern since he came to
learned; has done better than some people and not so well
as others ; was a member of the Chamber of Commerce ; re
signed because be did not approve of their system of buying
cern ; there was not a word of weights, nor tolls or ens.
toms ; if be can believe good authority, Dr. Carey told it of
him ; did not often appear as a witn•ss against Dr. Carey;
could not count how many suits between thorn, but they
were not innumerable; the process with which he was
served by Carey were many ; be could not now enumerate
them ; bas beard of 6,000/. damages Carey has against wit.
seas in imagination.

Wm. Moon, examined hir Mr. Waggett.—ls a surgeon;
recollects Jan. 1923 (dr. O'Loughlin -having objected to;
the inadmissibility of the evidence sought to be obtained
from this witness, it was net panned); witness is now In-
spector of the City gaol; knows !Mark well for many year:
was always a very correct and honest man : witness can
speak as to his having been particularly so since witness be-
came Inspector of the gaol.
The defence 'lasing closed, Mr. Jackson addressed the
Jury in an able and argumentative speech on behalf of,
the prosecution—and the Learned Judge charged the Jury.
After some observations from his Lordship. the Jury re-
tired, bat he desired them to be called again into the Jary
box. as lie had omitted to mention a circumstance, boat
could not say whether it would be favourable to the prisoner ,
or otherwise, and upon the Jury re-appearing, his Lordship
stated, that it was a well known symptom of the complaint
ander which lilies Slattery had suffered, that persons affect-
ed sills it occasionally exhibited very different appearances.
and it might have been in one of those moments of hectic
plow attendant on that disease, that she was introduced to
the traverser, Blackwell, as alleged, and which he might
have mistaken for the bloom that has been described in evi-
dence. The Jury then left the box, and at ten o'clock at
night, returned a verdict of Guilty, against Bleck well. He
was sentenced to three months imprisonment and a oeiti gated
line of 101. As a items iry consequence, he has also been
dismissed from his situation as gaoler.

Letters from Madrid affirm that the late sortie from Cadiz
was directed by two veteran foreign Generals—that the
troops of Bordesoolt s stained great loss—that Lopes Ralson
bad moved on Talavera, and effected his junction with Col.
Amor, their united strength being 6,000 foot, and 1.500
horse. Villa Vampa was also endeavouring to join Hellas.

army must send out large reconnoitering detachments.—

It appears from letters just received from Cadiz. that the
French squadron occasions much uneasiness among the re-
Outlook's. it is affirmed that Riego has promised a re-
ward of 300,000 francs to any one who would destioy any
of the ships of the blockading squadron. The discontent
of the people augments, and they not long since carried in
triumph one of our officers who was sent in with a flat of
truce, to hopes that the reign of Valdes and his consorts
would soon be ended —(Qssetic de France)
A letter from Tolosa. dated July 30, after detailing the
excesses committed at Saragossa on the 40th and following
days, on the authority of an eye-witness. says, that " after
the arrests, a great number of respectable inhabitants left
Seragossa by night. The 22nd and 23d, the discontent of
the populace was getters', because they remained alone with
the priests in the city, which now more resembles the mean-
est village of Arragon than the capital of the province.—
lasstraordinary couriers were dispatched by the French an
*lrides to the Duke of Angouleme, and it is hoped that his
1 Highness will order a detachment of at least 5,000 or
men to maintain tranquillity at Saragossa. Such is
