letter aso contained references to Orsini and as
surances of earnest sympathy with him; but it was
dated near year before the explosion.
Tie defense was placed on the ground that, how
ever, Bernard might have been disposed to aid in
upsettipg the Government Of France, he had not
been sufficiently connected with what Orsini had
actually doDe and that the prosecution was set
on foot not TO vindicate the laws Of England bat to
induce an English Jury to do what Parliament had
rofuied to do-to bow TO the ,soent demands of a
foreign poten.ate and to establish the principle that
protection WAS no longer to be extended to pOlit-
cal eIes. Certain legal objections were also taken
10 the application of the statute under which the
trial was had 10 cases Of this sort, which objections
in case of a conviction are to be passed upon By
the fifteen judges.
