In the High Court OF Justice, to-day NJ Foqnet, for

also for the prosecution, followed with an argument
which occupied the entire session. He compared
Victor Noir with Prince BonapaTte and described the
latter in terms of scathing severity.
The excitement Of the accused at times became un-
comfortable, and caused him TO interrupt and angry
reply TO the counsel.
The Court imperatvely insisted that NJ. Laurier
should address the prisoner less bitterly This was
appauded by the audience, who gave unmistakable
signs of favor for the Prince.
In the concluding portion of his speech, NJ kaurier
made some political illusions which were received
with marks of dsapproval by the spectators. The
counsel for the defense will address the jury to-
morrow.
