guard and forced his way through the
gates. Approaching the carriage in
which the Queen was seated. he drew a
pistol, presenting it at the person of Her
Majesty, whereupon he was seized by
the attendants and disarmed, when it
was discovered that the pistol was an old
fint-lock weapon, and unloaded. On
searching the boy further, a paper was
discovered containing petition for the
release of the Fenian prisoners confined
throughout England. The petition con
tanned a blank space for the Queens sig.
nature.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.

was brought before the police MAGISTRATES

nation. The court room and all its ap-
proaches were densely crowded The

tened quietly to the testimony without
seeking to interrupt or contradict the
witnesses. On being interrogated by
the magistrate, he stated that his full
name was Author 0 Conner, was born in
England, but his father was a native of
Ireland. One of the policeman into
whose custody o Conner was delivered,
swore that the prisoner gave as the rea-
son why he had not loaded the pistol was
because it was broken that he repeat
edly exclaimed, 81 wish to God | had

amnesty to the Queen in St. Pauls
church, on Tuesday, when she was sur
rounded by her ministers; that he had
the pen and ink ready for her to sign the
document with and that he would have
made the attempt, but the crowd was so
great he could not get near Her Majesty.
Two papers found on the prisoner when
seized were produced in court and read
pardoning all the Fenian convicts.
