LIBERATION OF O'CoNNkLL The day the last
steamer sailed, the Judges had given their opin,
IONS in the House Of Lords on the law Of the
points submitted TO them. OF the eleven counts
| which composed the monster Indictment, they


Pronounced more than half to be either informal
or bad. -Four of the counts they held to be in


formal by the finding OF the Jury, and two to be
| radically bad. The bad counts are the 9Th and
7th, which charge the moEster meetings, and


form the kernel of the offence. On these points
The Judges were unanimous. Seven out Of the
nine were ofopinion that the bad and the infor
NAL counts did not, nevertheless, vitiate the udg-
ment, while two-Mr. Baron Parke and Mr. Juf.
lce Cotman-held that the whole proceedings
ought TO be set aside.


This was the state OF matters at the sailing
Of the lest steamer. When the House met again
on Wednesday, the discussion was confined
to the law peers-the Chancellor, Lords Brough-
am, Cottenham, Campbell, and Denman. The
! two first named lawyers were for sustaining the
Judgment of the "Court below" the other three
for reversing it. Lord Denman, the Chief us
iice of the English Queens Bench, delivered an
elaborate opinion, in which he strongly dcnoun.
ced the illegality of The whole proceedings, and
characterized the treatment which the traversers
had received in the matter of the jury list, as a
mockery, a delusion, and snare." Ultimate
w, the Lord Chancellor put the question, when
thc judgment was revcrsed By a majority OF ore
Of the law Lords-three 10 two. Some OF the
lay peers wished, IN this emergency, 10 rush to
the assistance o the government, but they were
restrained by Lord Wharnclitfe, who showed
them that bad as was the reversal OF the judg-
nent, their interference, by voting, would be
worse-more damaging TO the constitution and
to the peerage.


This result came upon every one 50 unexpect-
edly-,he opinion of the majority of the judges
delivered On the previous Monday against the


raversers having been universally regarded as
decisive of int question-tbat the world could
not credit the announcement. The sensation


which the news produced in London and the
other large towns where II became known, has
rarely been equalled in modern days.


The excitement in Dublin was intense. Great
crowds had assembled on kingstown pier. The
packet arrived before 5 O'Clock; some repeal
agents ON board. holding up white flags, inscribed
Judgment reversed by the House OF LORDS

news spread, and cheers reechoed throughout the

special meeting to concert measures for giving
eclat to the occasion and it was resolved 10 es

The order for the liberation OF the traverssrs
