The Bench remained some time in consnhation, when
Mr. Herr begged to call their attentiou to
parts of the evidence. It had been necessary at th
trial to produce witnesses to meet the statements
Cha lwirk and Wiley. It war easy to find witnesses who
contireil the testimony of Wiley, but though they knew
that they could have proi!uced the same evidence againt.i
Chadwick, yet, from the short time allowed for the
purpose, they had not beets able to du so. The atbdar•s
now objected to was sworn to by unprejudiced persou
who accompanied Chadwick Boer Stockport to Manche--
ter, and passed Murray's honor, where he stated the
11 shooting to have taken place, and said that he had taken
nu part in them. He hoped that this athdavit, combat-
ing Chatinrick's statenteir, might, therefore, he read.
After consulting the other Judges, the Lotto Cola?

Mr. Hi/yr.—My Lord, had the name of the witness
Chadwick been od the back of the indictment, we ought
to, and should have been prepared with witnesses. but
he was a witness totally unexpected, of whom we: had

Cuter A:rms.—We are anxious to receive whatever

as wide at possible. But we must not establish a pre-
cedent which may he ilangetons in other cases.
The disputed affidavit was again heeded up, and
softie d!fference of opinion seemed to occupy the bench.
The Lord Chief Justice at length asked Mr. Hunt what
part of Chadwick's evidence he wished by this affidavit
to impeach?
Mr. Better.—My Lord, Chadwick stated that he at-
tended use from Stockport to Manchester. and that 1
intired the people to cheer. Now the affidavit is WWI

they deny the circumstance.
