Trial OF THE CONVENT RIoTERs-S
emth day. On the opening Of the Court
Yesterday mosning,it being understood
that all the witnesses on the part Of the
prisoner had been called, the counsel for
the persecution proceeded to call few
witncsses, ior the purpose of proving the
good character aud reputation of james
Logun, against whose veracity charges
had been brought on the proceeding day
MIR Farley, senior counsel for the
prisoner, commenced his argument, about
eleven o'clock, and flushed at four. lie
reviewed the testimony Of the witnesses
on both sides, and made his comments in
a very able manner. AT the close, he
stated that he was conscious of having
detained the court to some length VI
time, but he considered it his duty to re-
view the testimony as he had done tha
perhaps some parts might have been O.
initted by him, but he was conscious o
having done his duty towards the prison
cr; It was the last attempt he shou't
make in his defence, and that he now
should leave him to the decision of The
Jury I; he knew that he gnd they would b,
accountable hereafter for what they ha'
done, and he trusted they would reilec
we'll upon the testimony before rendering
their verdict.
The Court adjourned to nine o'clocl
this morning, at which time tho Attorney
General will commence his closing argu
ment CBoston Cour. Dec 8.
