CHIEF JUSTICE.—" Yon use it in a sense td 'which it is not applicable. Go on in gout argument on the re's of the case." "Mr. EVANs contended that the Constitution sm.:. pected everybody, ai.d that where men posses, power to act corruptly they will do so. Mr. Justice BAY LEY asked if the Coroner took an oath of office?—Being answe;ed in the affirmativei he asked if it was nut harsh to impute corruption 'to him? Mr. Justice BEST o!)served, that as the Coroner was elected by the Freeholders of the County/ the presumption was in favour of his integrity. Mr. EVANS proceeded in his argument at consi: derable length. He contended another point, which was, that the Sheriff was the person who ought to have returned the Special Jury, which was never challenged, nor could, by law; be challenged ; for which he quoted the authority of the case of the King and Edrnonds,43l)l3.trnwell and Alderson, 1,71 a He quoted also, 2d Venti is, 173. He contended that this was not a public prosecution, but a prosecution carried on by piivate individuals, who acted on a political bias, &c. and not to be at all favoured by a Court of Justice. The JUDGES having consulted awhile, after which the Cuter JUSTICE abided by the opinion which he entertained at the trial; hut finally, for the sake of fully discussing every pt:int on the Trial by Juryj granted the Rule to spew cause. The other Judges made no remat ks.  Mr. HUNT'S entry into London on Monday will give much work to some of the Treading Mills, as yesterday, and the day befo:e, a number of noto4  nous pic pocZeis and mhos were committed from the several Police-Offices, as reputed thieves, and seri& tented to hard labour, pursuant to law. We are requested by 11r. PARKINS to state, that his presiding at .Nrr. liusT's libercion dinner on Monday, was purely accidental: Mr. PARKINS rode  out to Islington that marling, " when," says' he, " on my return down the City-road, I Met Mrs HUNTS Procession, where I was soon recognised, not by Nlr. HUNT or his friends in the carriages, but by the people on foot, who cheered me, supposing I formtd part of the cavalcade, and seized the reins of my hor,e, and so t:sed nee and my servant in the  crowd, that we were conducted, vi:et-annis, fbr the first time, to the Eagle Tavern, and there I was pressed, in opposition to all my remonstrances to the  - • contra' y, to take the. Chair."  Those parts of the c unty Kildare, in the neig/ bou: hood of Rathangan, Kildare, and Rubertstowri have for the last-two months been much alarmed, in consequence of large armed parties, on foot and on horseback, patroling the country at night and forcing their oaths of association on every person they can possibly inflaence to take them. Friday, the Ist inst. D. FITZGERALD went to thd house of his father-in•law, the Rev. Mr. Cnoxert, at Smithle4l, ncar h. at seven o'clock in the evening, accompanied by 'Francis M.lnnes, a police-man, and a party of the army, for the purpose of executing • a *warrant against 411. Fitzgerald, one of Mr. CROKER s servants. The hall-door was locked; the party knocked; and t,:ld their busines%, but were refused admittance: Dr. FITZGERALD knowing the house, went to the back door, where he got entrance into the hall. He was instantly attacked by all the servants, when he called for assistance, and the police immediately forced the door, a shot was then filed which killed Mimes: 911 the servants were arrested. An Inquest was held on Sunday and Monday (the 3d and 4th inst,) on the body, when the Jury returned a verdict of •' Wilful Murder against Michael Fitzgerald, aided and assisted by John Madigan."  Several have been severely flogged with thorn bushes for refusing, or uttering a word against the Ribbon system. One man near Dunmurry, was within these few days Hounded through the neck with a musket ball, but is likely to recover. We understand A considerable armed patty was met a few nights s.nce, near Radii)lido, by a patrol of dismounted dragoons, ;met ded by a Magistrate. The party fired on two constables who *ere in ad= valve, and on the constables returning the fire, dis: persed into an adjoining bog. The night being darks the ttoops Could not pursue, The Irish Papers, in describing a late dad at Mist.; terford, say, that one of the combatants *au shot !through thejkshy part of the thigh bone!
