St . Patkick ' s-Dat . —This memorable day among th « inhabitants of the sister isle , has this year passed off with much less of those disgraceful scenes , which used to be its distinguishing character , than the most sanguine of the friends of Erin would have dared to hope for a Tery few yean since .

About 200 sat down to a plain but plentifal repast , and at the meeting which followed , the number was more than doubled . After tea was over , and the company had arranged themselves in an orderly
manner , > lr . T . U . bmith , of Hull , was requested to take the chair , whieh he did amid the hearty cheers of the andiftaee . Mr . S . opened the business of the evening with a few appropriate remarks , congratulating the company upon the return of a day so celebrated amongst a large portion of them , and remarking upon the pleasing spirit of unity which was evinced in the fact of a Protestant being called upon to preside at a Catholic festival . He then introduced Mr . John Andrew , who , in a long speech , advocated the principles of Total Abstinence . The meeting was afterwards delighted , and we hope edi-Sed by able and animated addresses , delivered by Messrs . Parker , Spence , Johnson , Creaser , and Murray .

'John Otter Blythman—I saw Mrs . Scorer on tbe 29 ih of January . 1 found a wound on the head about three inches long , which had been cut down to the bone , both arms were vtry much bruised and black , both her knees were also bruised—there was a slight discolouration on tbe eyes . She complained of pain in the head , great weakness , and she shivered very nvuch . Her pulse was low and weak at the time . I continued to attend her until he * death , twles a day . 1 did the
best for her according to mj ability . I first apprehended danger about the fifth day . She died on the 9 th of February . I afterwards examined the body . I first examined the bead , and fonnd tbe cut I have described down to the bone , and the bone itself chipped . I removed the hairy scalp , and found other two bruises —one on the front of her head , and another more considerable behind . I opened the head , and found on the right side about three ounces of coagulated blood , extending in a line from the outward wound down to the base of the brain . The pressure of the blood on the dura mater had produced aa indentation of the brain . I attribute ber death to this circumstance , produced by external violence . The weund was such as might have been caused by the end of & gun stock .
Cross-examined—I made a strict examination of the brain , which occupied an hour . A portion of the extravasation of blood would take place at the time the blows were inflicted . My assistant was first called in—he has been a year and a half from a druggists sbop . Stnpor usually follows oppression of the brain , but not invariably so . John Wood was called , but his evidence was corroborative of that formerly given . At the close of tbe case for the prosecution , Mr . Roebuck and Mr . Wilkiws addressed the Jury in eloquent speeches , and called several witnesses vrho gave the prisoners excellent characters as peaceable , inoffensive men . The Learned Jdege said the charge of murder was certainly not sustained , and then summed op in reference to the charge of manslaughter .
The Jnry returned a xerdict of Guilty of manslaughter against Hepworth , and found Eastwood gaily of aiding and abetting . The sentence hat sot reached as .

On seeing this , the keeper went towards him , when Speight called ont that , if be did not stand off , he would shoot him . The other three men then joined Speight , and wen asked by the gamekeeper if their guns were loaded , to whieh they replied that they were ready for anything . The men then left the
field , daring the watchers to follow them , and presented their guns . The watchers , finding themselves unequal to cop * with tbe poachers , allowed them to escape . Speight was well known to the keeper s bat the proof of identity against the others was -very slight—tbey being only spoken to by one of the watohew as being amongst tbe party . Another drconutanoe against Speight was that , when apprehended at bis house the same morning , his clothes were found besides the fireplace quite wet In summing up , the Learned Qvsbn ' s CO 0 NSEL Informed the Jury , that , in order to convict , they most be satisfied that the prisoners were all of tb , e party , inasmuch as Speight was indicted for having been iu the grounds with the other prisoners , who had not been satisfactorily identified .
The Jury accordingly , under the direction of the Court , retnrned a verdict of Not Guilty .
