Lord Norbury and a and wrong right t A. 1 never said any such thing. Lord goasuitv.--If any person was to say such a thing, I would feel it my duty to apply to his Majesty's Attorney-Gene ral to file a criminal information. Mr. O'Connor.—l will prove it to your Lordship this day upon oath. The witness was then examined by Mr. O'Connor as to a variety of dealings relative to the rent of the premises. Lord NORBURT.—I have every wish to give every possible and reasonable degree of latitude in the cross-examination; but Mr. O'Connor, I request you to recollect there are a number of poor wretches in the deck, waiting to take trial for their lives. Mr. O'Connor.—l do not know how, or why lam so hemmed in ; is there a man in the county but myself that would have been sent to the Assizes to stand his trial for a common as satdt ; to be dragged into this Court ins teas of being sent to the-Sessions, for the purpose of makingme more particular than any other man, I, who hardly ever stir abroad, except when I go to Dublin or England with my family, who am unacquainted with the gentlemen of the country, who never was in one of their houses for seven years ; whose only acquaintance, and that but a slight i one, in the country, is Mr. Winter. Why shoold I be treated in a manner totally different from any other man ? Lord NORBURT.I only wish to assist you in your mode of proceeding, and to save as much of the public time as we can. Mr. O'Connor proceeded to examine the witness, who ad mitted he might have said he collared young O'Connor, but did not recollect having said, that when he collared him, that the other had not spirit to resist him. The witnesapositively swore, that Mr. Roger O'Connor called to two persons to come and assist him, but before they arrived he ran at the witness fu riously, and collared him ; admitted he might have torn Arlr. O'Connor's coat in endeavouring to rescue himself, and says, that after he had extracted himself he was assaulted by the traverser Hayes. Patrick Rorke examined by Mr. Corroborated the testimony of the last witness, as to his hav ing been assaulted by Mr. O'Connor, senior, and the traverser Hayes. Cross-trona:led by Mr. O'Connor. Q. You did not come to my house through curiosity ?—A. Not in the lea-,t. Q. You did not come there as an affidavit man ?—A. No ; I went there of my master's message, which you know. Thomas Rawson, Esq. said, the prosecutor came to him sup posing him to be - a magistrate, he appeared to be very severe:' beaten, and the witness gave him some wine. DEFENCE. Nicholas Kerney, Owen Tracy, and Dorah Croshie, swore positively that the prosecutor was the first aggressor. Those witnesses were cross-exatnined, but persisted in the account they gave. Martin M'Keon examined by Mr. O'Connor. Was one of the person, left as keeper on the prooetutor's property, and had a convorsation with him, Q. Had you any coversation with him relative to the Learned and Noble Lord on the Bench ? Lord NORBURY.-Sir, I caution you not to commit a studied contempt of this Court : I have as much temper and forhear ance as an 7 man that has the honour of presiding in a similar situation : as to myself, I am. totally indifferent to what was said, but I never will suffer any man under colour of a defence to be guilty of a studied contempt : because it cannot be rele vant to the issue, and as to the gossiping of a parcel of illiterate fellows, it can be of no use to you, and I will not set a precedent fOr insulting the coming judges of Assize. Mr. O'Connor Lord, I do think it very revelant, and if it should be a contempt Idoit in ignorance. Perhaps, I may put the question this way ?—bid you hear any thing from the prosecutor respecting the trial? it. This is the great man that you thought so much about, and that the people thought so much about: and that they thought to crown king of thi, place. And, if he was governor or king of Tara, you would be worse off than you are.—but, if it was left to a Jury of Trim and Lord Norbury, little of it he would ever put into his poeket ; you know. little abuat it, for they would make right wrung, and wrong right. Lord NOKBURY•--Q. Who was present ?—A. James Crosbic. Q. He said the Jury of Trim would get Lord Norbury to as oust them in making wrong right, and right wrung?—A. Yes. James Crosbie examined by Mr. O'Connor. is the second keeper that was on the prosecutor's property. The prosecutor said, is not this a terrible thing, that be should be such a tyrant : hut I wall let him know I have a friend—my Lord Norbury is a friend of mine, is an intimate friend of mine, ant a sworn • enemy to Mr: O'Connor ; and if it is left to the decision of my Lord Norbury, anti a Jury of Ttitn, by the ma- REGISTER. 191 culate farmer he would never get his rent, for they would. make wrong right, and right wrong. Mr. M‘ „Milli/ to the Prosecutor. Q: -1,--that true ?--A. it is as false as airy rhing ever said. O. You have heard what he has said respecting the Noble Lo - rd on the Bench : does he swear false ?—A. I say it is a most infamous lie. Roger O'Connor, Esq. and John M'Ctillaugh swore that the prosecutor having given some ill language to Mr. Rodrick O'Connor, the htter put his hand ge nt * on the prosecutor's elbow, and desired him to quit tne place; upon which the pro secutor rushed on him, and took him by the neckcloth : the witness, Roger O'Connor, was the person that disengaged the • prosecutor's hand. Here the case closed. Lord Norbury summed up the evi dence. The Jury retired for about an hoar, and then brought in the following verdict—R. O'Connor, Esq. guilty—Rodrick O'Con nor, Esq. not guilty—Peter Hayes, guilty. Mr. O'Connor begged leave to address the Court. He said the verdict just given reminded hit of a verdict given against him on a former occasion, in a civil action, tried in the same Court-house, before his Lordship, in which the verdict way not only against the evidence, but against the charge of the Noble and Learned Lord. The verdict of this day was a proof of the testimony which chargid Mr. Ogle with having said,that he Could not have justice from a Trim Jury ; and be now felt that justice was not to be had for him in the county of Meath. Lord NORBLTRY said he would not listen to such a charge against the Jury ; they had always shewn themselves the pr tectors of the peace and liberty of the subject, and had executed their duty this day with a conscientious adherence to the evi dence given, and with a merciful attention to the case of the younger O'Connor, whom they had acquitted, and in doing which they had done right ; as to any imputation on his Lord.- ship himself, that was below his resentment. Though not of the old nobility or the country, he was as proud as any Lord that had a title, and he could not condescend to vindicate his conduct from malignant and unfounded imputations. Mr. Otonnor said, he alluded to his Lordship's conduct litretofore in the House of Commons, when Attorney-General; to that conduct he imputed t1h:• partial treatment he had re ceived ; it had poisoned the opinion of the people against him; . •it had affected him in his character and in his dearest interests. But, however, he th:enited the Noble Lord for the patience with which be had attended to the trial; and permitted him to expend so much time. Lord NORBURY said, that what he had said did not relate to Mr. O'Cohnor, but to his family, which bad been troublososne s and disturbers of the peace. Mr. O'Connor.—Your Lordhip alludes, I presume, to mil brother, now absent in France, with whom Government eapi.- tulated and permitted to go abroad. Lord NORlibitY.-I will hold no further conversation with you, Mr. O'Connor: let the gentlemen be taken into custody, we will consider of the sentence:. Mr: M'NALL informed the Court it was the intention of the prosecutor to bring an action, and said, he gave this intiosr tion for the purpose of mitigating the sentence ;. and that Mr. O'Connor should have nothing to complain of, he would advise his client to lay the ve'nue in a .lifferent county. Mr. O'Connor was sentenced to be confined one mouth, aa4 Mr. Hayes one fortnight.—(Fr,:man's Journal.) Ttif NATIONAL Trim Jury, they would make right wrong, 1 . 1 culai RICHARD ARMITAGE. This celebrated character, of whom so much has been heard respecting his transactions with Roberts, in forgeries upon the Bank of England, in which establislimeiit lie was a Clerk, was taken on Tuesday morning, at an Inn, about ti.ree miles from Ipswich, in a cross country road, by John Filr, accompanied by two gentlanen from the Bank, a reward of :AY.. guineas Irv:lug been offered for his apprehension as long since as the 11th of August.
