the hearts Of dozen Irishmen who

felicitation upon his exoneration. Beggs

the retirement Of that body and spent the
next halfhour pleasantly according inter-
views to the score of newspaper men that
crowded around him. Mr.. Forrest, on be-
half of the four convicted de-
PENDANTS, entered the accustomed
motion for a new trial and
after considerable discussion, the judge
fixed Jan. Is as the day on which the mo-
ton for a new trial should be argued and
the prisoners were taken back to Jail.
