After a quotation IRON CObbett regarding

He then gOes on at great length to detail tue
worldly life aud pecuniaiy m,lv.rsarions OF the
bishop. This letter--tDe joint production or
Mef.rs. OConDor and Mar,in-is signed lii
berlicus AID followed by Another tigDed dioer'
pcus junior, from tho sar. Ia the s,Ine strain:
Or course, there were articles in The Sentinel
10 rrply, and. amung other things, had adverred 10
"tbe ioval habits of the w. clergy men in cOul-
pay with Priest Maeill, The priest OF Ennit1'
over. Nr. Msgil, When examined, ssOre tuat he
aDo the clere! ntn il question ere Ultimate; mat
they sad spent eseniDgs together at Mr. Martins
and at Mr. Magili's brot5er's-alsO u priest but
"slwa,s like gentlemen;" that they had drunk
whi,ky with a hearer of bis, wD0 sold groceries,
"snd hams, aud whisky" but that he had never
teen Mr. U'CopnVr "druDk or the worse for
wlisby" This Of course, was according 10 the
EnnishCwtn staDdsrd.
On his cross..xou,ination, Mr.. Magill said that,
one night, us it was dark aud stormy, he pressed
Mr UCobnOr to stay, Offering him his Own bed,
al d that he himself would sleep on the sofa, but
that Mr. O'Conpcr said "he would not turn the
"priest cut Of Lis bed" He admitted, too, that
lie Lad been removed IRON bis curacy, but he said
"it was to better one, where there was more
money" In fact, the Roman Catholic bishop
like the intimacy DO better than DIR. OConnors
PrCfesiabt psrIshiopers.
The following dialogue then took place:
ChiefJustice- The plaintiff dined at sour house;
and is it possible that YOU dined together and had
pO liquor together after diDneri
" illness 1 suppose your Lordship thinks we do
nothing in EunishOwen but drink the whisky.
,JuI.r-Wlbess, don't YOU always take d tum-
bier Of punch after dinnerl
WitDess-Reahy, l think it is not right for
clergyman 10 be questioned thus by a. puppy.
Chief Justice-l GU are here, Sir, as witness;
and must tell YOU your conduct is excessively
wrODg.
Wituess-Ny Lord, have been sixteen years
priest, aud never missed duly.
Chief Jultice-The Juror is merely asking you
plslI question TO test your habits.
Witness-l sbsiaintd on the occasion because
had mass TO say next day.
