The Irish Trials.

The Circuit Court has at length got
through with the trials of the four Irish
men charged with the commission of the
outrage in August last, on the person of
a young female of this county--torn from
the side of her betrothed on their way to
the marriage altar.
The unparalleled atrocity of the crime,
in all it's attendant circumstances, has
excited widespread Indignation and at
tracted general attention to the trials of
the accused.
Two separate indictments in each case
as principal, and as accessory-were
found against Maloney, Brogy, and Nc
Taige, Observation-Disclosures was indie
ted as an accessory only.
On arraignment, the prisoners petition
ed for change of venue, on the ground
that the public excitement was so great
that they could not expect an impartial
trial in this county. On the evidence adj
duced, and argument, the court refused
the petition.
Maloney and Brogy were elected to be
tried separately; McTaige and Hallon
were tried jointly. The special defence OF
an abb was relied on in each case. The
trial of Maloney, who was arrested near
the scene of the outrage, and shortly af-
ter its occurrence, resulted, as our rea-
ders have been informed, in verdict OF
guilty on both indictments, and sentence
to the penitentiary for forty gears, Gin
the aggregate, the utmost extent of the
law.
Brogy, McTaige and Hallon were ar
reSted in the course of the night after
the occurrence, at the Irish shanties along
the line of the Railroad !; consequently
the proof of indemni6cation in their cases
was more difficult. The jury in Brogy's
case being unable to agree were dischar-
ged, and he remains to be tried at the
next June term. In the cases Of Nc
Taige and Hallon, the jury found fol
the former a verdict of not guilty, on the
Indictment as accessory, but guilty as
principal, and fixed his term of confne-
ment in the penitentiary at seventeen
years Hallon was acquitted on the in
dictmect against him, and discharged
from custody.
The court and juries manifested the
most commendabic patience during the te'
dious, laborious and protracted inyestlga-
ton of the cases. These trials have oc-
cupied the Court, to the exclusion OF all
other business of Importance, throughout
the entire month of November the esti-
mated total cost of the trials and convic-
ten is near $4,000
