PROGRESS OF THE MONSTER TRIAL . j On Friday last tbe Attorney-General " moved" the J Court to £ s upon Monday , December 11 th -for the j commeucemfat of the trial ; . and " that the said 11 th s of December , and the Jollo-wing days , tip to and j including the 10 th . day of Jannaiy , should , tor the par-1 pose of f \ ich trial , Ym deemed &n < 3 fcaiea to be a part of . the ^ Iidaelinas Term . " The motion -was oppesed by Mr- Herm on thepartof ibeTraversera ; on the ground , j i i | ; ) j ' \ !
first , that it "would be Imposible , in the interim between and the period named by the Attorney-G ^ npral , to prepare the esfence to the inourter indictment ; and se ^ onoly , because the Jury List "was at the present time "undergoing revision , und would not be completed ty the 11 th of December . It was notorious that the present Jury L ' - st was Tery defsctive ; "and if a trial ¦ was had by a jury chcsen from it , the public ¦ would entertain the idea that all -was not fair t for these reasons be applied that the 1 st of February should bo fixed for the commencement of the trial .
The Attorney-General replied , giving his reasons at great lengQi for hia chsrerns tipon the defendants a desire to procrastinate and delay . He , however , consented to postpone the trial till the 15 th of Januarylot i > y that t 3 roe tbe new jury list "would be perfect * d-The Court , in "whose diBcrelioii the matter 1 ay , acceedtd to the offer ^> f the Attorney-General , and fixed Honfisy , January loth , as the firstxlsy ^ of triaL In the < xmrse * fthe " Judgment" as delivered by Chief Jnsties Pennefather ^ he took o ccasion-to say , that the affidavit upon "which Mr . Henn ' s appjicatiou for a deferring of the trial tfll Feb . 1 st -was founded , did not * et forth that the "witnesses for the defence "were out of the country , or that any pecnliar circumstances existed -with refereces to them that called for delay . As Boon as the "Judgment" was concluded , Mr . Steele rose and said—I most respectfully beg permission to makes single observation to the court .
Chief Justice—The judgment of the court has been given , and your time for speaking is past Mr . Steele—I have but one observation to make , jay lord . Chief JasKce—I fear 'we cannot fcear 70 U ill . Stede . Mr . Steele—My Lord , I Tiope I wai have the same magnificent justice from you that I had from yimr illnstrious brother "when I "was tried before him . My Lords . 1 feel it richt to Hjm la « t my jrileiieft on any particular point if 3 were to be silent , should be construed by your Lordships into an acquiescence . The
Lord Chief Justice , in Us jndgrnent , staisd-that all the ¦ wi tnesses were rerident in Ireland . Now , I pray leave most respectfully U state that in this bis-Lordship is , under & misconceptjoB . The oaly "witness resident in ] ir-rLmd whom I intend to examine "when defending ; myself in this court , is Lord Plnntet , whom I with - great pain draw from his retirement . Every other "witness whom I intend to examine is resident ic London , j Chief Justice—Tee obserratioEa "which 1 made use I of "were founded on the affidavits that have been laid before the court , in which it is not alleged that any of "the "WitnfcS 3 fcB are ont of the country .
The Attorney- ( rtiieril said it was necessary pro forma tb = t the < f 5 cer in takiBg down the order ahouta &ave tbe parties present ; as strictly speaking , they had no attorneys in csnrt . - < Mr . Pigot Raid to faciliiate matters the attorneys I ¦ w ould accept the orders . i 3 Ir- Bourne 3 aid there "was yet no appearance for the parties by attorney . j Mr . Jlahony said they "would appear at once . The Attorney-General said it "wasjnecessary that the ! order sbonld be mine in the preaesce of the parties . I There could be jio difSeulty in the parties attending in j the course of that day or the next da ; . j sir . Vigox objected to tfce annoyance of bringing ' the defendants oown to court for bo unnecessary a marter . Mr . Brewster said if the parties "were not present \ when the order waa taken down they could bring an j action against the efficer . Mr . Qartian said be appeared for Mr . DuSy . Mr , Mahony said he appeared for Mr . John O'Con- !

THE Pa 0 SECCTI 0 > -5-The DuKin llonitor , of Monday , contains an able Teriexr of the whole proceedings , -which we give entire , as it "will enable tie reader to comprehend ai that has hitherto beea done : — The . first sci of this great drama being no » brought to a dose , it may not be uninierestinsj to giye a resume of all the proeeedirgs list have hitherto taken place . la tnetr progress , "WB taTd endeavcmifcd to afford as accents knowledge as we coold glean of the variops moTciccuts . and , in connexion , with them , of the prattles ef the Goun ; and we believe onr readers have not been misinformed by oor nrprofessioixal learning . As every matter , fcowever sUiht , conncc ' -ed "with these important prosecntions , is of interest ; and though much of what we have to say is only tfce repetition of what ¦ we have said before , ytt a general rehearsal of the entire course cf attack and defence will not be without jts share of interest .
T ^ e course udopteo the Cro-sra been relied on as one of extreme iairctss , zed calculated to open a fair defence to the Trsversers—first , by giviug them a chance of having the Bills ignored by tht Q and Jury ; and , secondly , in yielding to tfce ease made by Mj Html for additional time , until the new Special P ^ nel shall cone into operation . The Atiernej-G ? - ueral , it is said , mjrLi hsve proceeded by aa Sa-O ^ V P-Q . Xme . be raisrfct—feat tliat is a procass " » hieh , cnless

' of expresang his dissent from the finding in open Court . AH tbe Traversers appeared , and -were then charged "witb the indictment The Attorney-General then mevsd that the usual four day rule to plead should ran from that day—a very preposterous demand ; for how could they know what to plead to , when they were ignorant of the indictment ? The Court seemed disposed to assent , "with tbe exception . Of Judge Parrin , who pat a very pertinent and Buggestisre question , "which inspired Mr ^ Whltegide to adopt the novel &na inconvenient course of insiating on tbe nine leadiagB ^ f the indictment ! The Court w-re then clearly of opinion that the rule should run | from tbe following d * y 1 J While this rule was running , as it is called , the ; Traversers * Counsel commenced their system of strategy ! —in our humble opinion , found on just principles , i They made three successive applications , all which
were unKnccessfol : — I i 1 st . 1 -asmBcta as the furnished copies were not re- j ; gularly certified by the Clerk of the Crown , they de- '¦ ¦ manded the inspection of the record to compare their i ; copies . i 2 nd . Inasmuch as they were entitled by law to a peri feet copy of the record , they demanded a list of the wit-| nesses endorsed thereon . ! 3 rd . On tbe Bame ground they n ^ iired a copy of j the caption , or formal preamble prefixed to the indict- j ! ment . ' 1 The first centained little they supplied
very , as were j I with a " copy , " and in law that is presumed to be a i I correct one . If there was a variance , the only point on j | which they relied , they would not be prejudiced by the ] error . Aa to the second , it ia the usual practice in Eng-1 j land to give a list of the witnesses ; and why a different j practice ahonld prevail in Ireland one cannot well see . j Besides , by the 56 ih George 111 ., when tbe witnesses i ; -were Bworn in optn Oonrt , there was no necessity for a list , because they were all well known ; and the Act j cf Yictoria did not deprive the traversers of that ristht , i as was iutiuiated or infemd by Judge Perrin when I
giving judgment on the plea . To a copy of the caption , j the traversers , it would seem , are always entitled in j England ; but with ub the * ' prac-ice of the Court is the ¦ law of the Court , " and on that dogmatical axiom the 1 application was refused . ; The rule to plead having expired on the 14 th , the ? traversers were called on to plead or demur . They , ebosa the former , and tendered the celebrated pleas in i abatement Fur this tbe Crown efficers were wholly j unprepared , and Mr . Smith ot-jtcted to their reception . ¦ It was argued the day after , on vtiy narrow ai . d tech-1 nicul grounds , by tbe Attorney-General , w £ o should ; have at obc 8 allowed their acceptaucs . The unfclicitous I
reply of Mr . Brewster was beUer lor the traversers ; thkn Mr . Htsnn ' s ablest argument j The pleas wtre received . The Attorney-General t then demurred in law , and required that tbe traversers j fchould instantly join Th » rnlb to join in dt-murrsr to a j plea in abatement is a ' so a four-day rule ; but Mr Smith stood on the high horse of vrerojiative , and insisted ,. w ' nh unconstitutional pertinacity , that the Crown should > have pritileges denied to the torn in on Mihj-cts of the , realm ; and that , to speed forward irith bis proSeCU- , tion , tht ? ordinary rnies of the Courc should DB 8 et aside . Mr . iloore's just rebuke locked the month of . Mr . Smith . The Court without hesitation granted the four additional tkija . ;
On the twentitth the joinder was put in , and the following dsy fixed for the argument . Whtn fir ^ t . taken , Counsel for the Travellers had hopes » f success ; \ but on consideration of the question , thtir confluence gsve way , uid it only remained for \ beni to fight out , the fight aa best they might . After an able argument , on both sides , the Court decided ajjaiunt the plea , j chjtfly en the areumtnt ab incenveniaM ; tur if witnesses should be examined in open Courl at tbe CUy , ConimissioD , then all those -who had suffered under j the opposite system "vrere illegally punished . The . jndgment of Ju > 3 ge Penin waB lemaikable for clever- ' De . , and admirable cood sense . :
"When jadsment was proaonnce-d , Mr . Smith called on the Traversers to plead forthwith , relyin ? on the case of the King r . Sheridan , in which , on a judgment j to answer over , there was an immediate plea of the general issue . Mr . Whiteside and Mr . Hatchell sonant another four-gay rule , which lay in the discretion of tbe : Court , ted was not of » tiict tight .

In another point of view the postpon * meEt was also most desirable .

undertaken them . He relies strongly on his cluty to tht Grown . Let him do that do *? y by legitimate means ; but let him not transgress it—of this the-e is the more danger . The Attorney-General has paid , perhaps with exaggeration , that the history of tfee world does not contain a more momentous record than these trials wiil famish .

IT 1 DEXCE FOB DEFENCE . By some means or other , the following letter has found its way to the press : —
The Queen v . ( yConnell and others . 23 , Wiliiam-street , Dublin , 4 ; h Nov ., 1843 . Dzab am ) Rev . Sir—From the course adopted by the Crown Solicitor in this case yesterday , I conclude tha * he intends to prove acts and speeches at various meetings held o ' uriflg the samiut r , and at which Mr . O'CcnnfU attended , indepeniij of Mullaghmast and Clifdenjsome of the crown witnesses La aneodance upo : i tie ^ rand jury came fr i / in jour district , and I therefore wLh to know whether or not we could get one or two respectable , intelligent , and faitb-worthy witnesses , to depose to Zfte peaceable character of tbe meering held at Mallow , and to contradict any evidence which may be given , lhat the parties attending at that meeting pn-cteded there iu military or menacing array . It would be
extremely useful if we could negative ibis charge bj xesDeet&ble witnesses who are not HepeaJers , and who will prove that the procession wbb of the ordinary character , and leaded to preserve peace and order at the meeting ; and that ibej did cot apprehend danger to themselves or to the eomnmnity irom the meeting in qnestion , or from the agitation ieneraliy . ihe idgber the class of persons we coald Ptoiaee to &r % eviienee to tbiBtffeet the better , and tidW / .

national habit and for a length of time ; and if bo ( in yonr district ) the witnesses we select should be thoBs who , in truth and in good faith to the country , feel themselves ( as I would do ) bound to give evidence to that effect . I "witnessed Several of thoso processions in Limerick . In April last I saw on © in honour of the Rev . Mr . Mathew , and on another 0 Ccasion I saw the _ trades ia procession attend the chairing of the cifcy members , and at other times they met Mr . O'Connell , &o . ; and these processions mijihtaswen be called military array as the procession to and from the mteting held at Mallow , and now complained of .
As to the order in . which men on horseback appeared , I should like to have some details . 1 am toid they did not attempt to move in military array , but that their order was fox the protection of those who walked , and to prevent confusion from their numbers ; and that by that arrangement the people moanted on horseback , from each district , did no more than fall into order as they met their companions , and thus proceeded to the meeting behind Mr . O'Counell ' s carriage . It is very desirable , after you consider these suggestions , that I should know as soon as possible the names , residence , station , and character of the witnesses you consider eligible , accompanied by a distinct statement of the evidence which each shall be prepared to give on the trials . I am , dear and reverend sir . Your faithful , humble eervant , Piebck Mahont . Rev . Dr . Collins , P . P . of Mallow .
In reference to this letter , the Times of Monday has the following : — "One consequence springing from tbis procrastination of tbe trial nmst be hailed aa highly profitable to Mr . Pierce Mahony , if we may judge by a letter of that strenuous personage . "The learned attorney will now be enabled to ' Sileci , ' and sift , and sort , his witnesses from all counties of the kingdom , such as may be qualified to prove certain things j as , for instance—ldt , that the meeting at Mallow was quite a ' peaceable'
assemblage , and thac the parties attending it did' not march thither in military array ; ' secondly , to give an opinion , as * he ( Mr . Mahvuy ) would do , ' ' that the Kepeal agitation , though inconvenient and , misunderstood by many , would not lead to any evil remit ; ' thirdly , to briu « into nolica ' all the passages in Air . O'Connors speeches urging peace ;' fourthly , To prove , 'as he , Mr . Mahony , mould do , )' that the habit of marching by trades , temperance bands , &c , ' has almosc become a national' ( instead of an insurrectionary ) 'haOil . '
" Now , we do cot at a ! i blame Mr . Mahony for trying , by all tbe most ingenious methods m his power , to gut up tvidenca oi iho above exculpatory stamp on behsli of his accused c . ieuts . Testimony lo that extent , at least , must doubtless be absolutely indispensable to persons in tho prtdicameut of Mr . O Conn ell ; but , wiiciber such cricUiicu may be most easily procurable from parties who have witnessed , or from those who have not witnessed , the proces-Eious and proceedings of Mr . Daniel O'CounelJ , and
his repealiug fraternity , it is not for us to divine . Tnere wil ! probably be no inconsiderable amount of swagger kept up by the Repeal lactbn and its organs ou : of doora , until the moment when a verdict of guilty snail have made bullying no longer available , or au acquittal rendered it uo longer needful . Should that verdict be agaiust the tra ? ersers , it may perhaps depend upon tho species or degree of puinsbment awarded , whether hopeless despondency or ieariess desperation is to be the result among the Romish democracy .

FRENCHMEN I . V IKELa . VD . A paragraph under the above head , which appears in the la ^ t number of the Fermanagh Reporter , annuunces a piece of intelligence bordering rather more on romance than reality . It runs as follows : — " The persons who attended the late R-.-peal Meetings throughout Ireiand , iu the char-tcur of French emissaries , and who created no lltdfl fear amongst tbe timid , and no little boasting atnouRst tbe revolutionists , were neither more nor less than officers of the London police , sent over to Ireland for tho purpose of walciiiug the proceedings , and noting tbe
seditious expreb .-ioiis of the leaders of the movement . They were ali ( 40 in number ) men of fir&t rate abilities , woll acquainu-d wiib the continental languages and countries , and in every way qualified to pass . 'or wbat they seemed to b«— the delegates from tbe discontented pan of the French nation , which yet looks forward to thts restoration of ileury V . It . is said that those Rucltmen cxn prove certain offers from the Repealers , which will sub&tantiatu the assertion of the Attorney General , that he would prove iho eiisti nee of a wicked and dangerous conspiracy .

TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND . Fellow Cobstetmex , —Attend to me . Attend to me fcarnestty , hnd witfi that perfect reliance on my advice which you have so often exhibited . You have never bad occasion to regret taking my advice . Before I proceed on tbe pre » % nt occasion , 1 feel it my duty—a most pleasi g duty—to return you thanks txji tbe complete tranquillity that prevails . It delights me , and it delights ~ u your friends , to Bee tbe perfect tracquilli y and aubtnission to the law that pervades tbe country . Your entmWa are anxious that you should disturb tbe peaces tbat >< u should be guilty of outrage , and violence , and crime . TLaDk heaveu , you are determined that nothing feball provoke you to any species of riot , or tumult , or violence . How I tbank you from the bottom of my heart for tbat determination \
There are , however , two topics on which I feel it my duty to address you , and to which 1 anxiously tntrtat you earnest attention . The first of these relates to Rbbonism . I tell you emphatically , tbat Ribbonisui is tbe meat fwoJisb , as well as the most vicious combination that evtr ¦ was formed . There is nothing so hateful and detestable in Ireland as Ribbonism . It is as silly aa it is "Wicked . I tends to encourage drinkiiig in low and unlicensed public houses ; and in fact , it is set on fo » t , and kept up , principally for the benefit of peraoni wbo do not , desrrvelo be publicans , and who , in general , do actually sell liquor without license .
I am sure that the respectable puohcans all iwith me ; discourage it I know tbey do iu Dabl n and in niany other places ; and I believe in aii . No matter whether it ba cumi&cttd with liquor or not , ic is a vicious , cruel , a foolish , a driftless , and absu . d cuufederacy . It never did any good , and it ntver ta . ii do any good . It causes assaults , and riote , and ruffianly beatings , without being productive of any one . iiivanta ; e . I h * te it from my inmost soul . No man who is known to be a Ribbonman shall ever be Emitted to b « j a Repealer ! If the Repeal Wardens do not suppress Rvbbooutro in their neighbourhoods , their names shail be Btrack oot of tiie Repeal Association altogether I . '
I bear with the deepest regret , that in ih * county c » Tan another set of Ribbonmen , calling tbeinselvta M Billy Smiths , " or some Bach foolish name , have lately m-. ule their appearance . They are worse , if possible , than the former Ribbonuien No man tbat is known to have anything to do with the " BLly Smiths " shall tver be admitted as a Repealer ! I conjure—I entreat—and I wish I could command , every honest man who knows of the existence of "Biilj Smiths" and Ribbonmen to denounce them at ouce to the magistrates . At nil events , they will scon be be trayed l-y their own companions and instigators ; and wben they came to be imprisoned and fined or transported , tbey will then bitterly regret not having taken my affectionate and anxious advice !
I most respectfaHy solicit the Gathouc Clergy to announce these my sentiments in every locality in ¦ which there may possibly txist Ribbonmen or " Billy Smiths . " I , in like manner , solicit them to add to my advice , the weight of their veneration counsel and authority . There ia another topic upon which I wish to address the people , and to offer them my earnest advise . It relates to a practice sow beginning to grow up , of ligbfc . ing bonfires on on » frivolous pretence ot another . It is a foolish and dangerous custom ; it can do no good , and m » y do a great deal of harm even accidentally . Let there not be any repetition of that mt > sl absurd and senseless practice . Thia u my advice—will yoa let me say it is my command ?
In Ulster particularly it ought to be avoided . I am told that some of tbe Orangemen then consider it as an inrelt—that ia a decisive reason why it should never be repeated . No honest Repealer would insnlt any man . ' Every honest Repealer would conciliate all men of all parties 3 ! Let there be nothing more beard of these bonfires in Ulster , or in any part of Ireland . I cannot conclude -without again offering to yoa my most cordial thanks for the universal peace and quiet tbat prevails . Let every man In every part of Ireland be tranquil and quiet , and conduct himself peaceably and loyally . Let him totally avoid any riot , tumult , or violence . Whatever may be the event of the pending trials , let every man stay at home in quiet , and be not tempted by any body to any species of breach of the peace . Every man -who is guilty of tbe slightest breach ol the peace is an enemy of mine and of Inland ,

REPEAL-WHEN WILL WE GET IT ? At a meeting of St . Audeon ' s Ward , held in the Market-house , Spitalfielde , on Sunday , the 22 nd day of last October , Alderman Kesban in the chair , Mr .

"— Freeman ' s Report . This would lead us to expect the accomplishment
of Repeal on or before the 22 nd day of April , 1844 . However , in an Address to tho People of Ireland , issued on Saturday by Mr . O'Connell , which we elsewhere publish , we find the time extended very considerably . He concludes that address thus : — "Peace , quiet , tranquillity , and within twelve months the Repeal of the Union wid be at hard !" Only " a * hand" within twelve months , dating from Saturday last ! Has Mr . O'Connell the slightest faith in the fulfilment of his own promises ?— Dublin Monitor .

TUe admission of \ he Rev . Gentleman was carried by acclamation . Mr .: O'Connell next read a letter from the Rev . Mr . Giles , a Baptist clergyman in Leeds , expressive of tbe delight folt by the Complete Suffrage Society of Leeds at the manner In which the Catholic Hierarchy had rejected the state provision . It appeared , said Mr . O'Coiihell , that the Government fntended to prosecute tbe Corn Law Le& # tie after they had succeeded in convicting the Ripealers—( laugher ) . The Association rejoiced that the C . tnplete Suffrage Society should j > in them at a moment like the present He ( Mr . O'Connell j begged to express the gratitude of the Association , and of all the wise and the good throughout Ireland , to Mr . Giles , and to the men who authorised him to write that very gratifying communication —( hear , hear ) .
The Rev . Mr . o * Ma llet proceeded to address the meeting . He said he joined the Association as a Federalist—the principle of Federalism was not in good repute in tbat Association , because it was supposed to be a compromise of the agitation for a complete national legislative independtuce—( bear , hear)—but that -. appeared to bim a total tniBconcepuon of the matter . He wonld maintain that Federalism , properly understood and properly appiUd , so far from being a compromise of what they sought to attain , secured to them every advantage ; besides it had tho additional advantage , that it afforded a ground for all the truehearted lovers of their country to meet together for the common weal of their common country .

" The same official journal contains a paragraph of apparently the most ordinary kind , but which , our Paris letter states , is drr-med of very singular import—namely , that " the King has caused to be purchased for his several private libraries copies of the Marquis de Cuseine ' s celebrated work Russia in 1839 . When the displeasure , amounting to rage , with which the Emperor Nicholas has received this book shall bo taken into consideration , " says our Paris letter , " a more striking or intolerto him
able defiance could not have bf- ^ n offered by France than is convoyed ia the announcement of the Moniteur , that King Louis Philippe has ordered for all his libraries copies of a work which deals so FBverely with Russia , and which the Emperor and the whole Russian nation have declared to ba false , from the : beginning to tho cud . This affront will appear tho more obvious and intentional , when it shaU be borne in mind that the Marquis de Cutitine , an avowed leginmatist , is looked upou aa a personal tnemy of the King . " An impression is general here that the JFrench and British Government are perfectly in accord , and determined to act together in respLOt of Russian intrigue and Russian ambition . Late events in Greece are said to have alarmed both , and to have inuueed a combined resolve to brava and meet the danger ereit become truly formidable . '

A great meeting of Repealers was held at the Tabernacle , in the city of New York , and another still greater meeting was held at the Park . Strong resolutions , not ! very flattering to this country , were passed . I - The yellow fever has been more than usually malignant this year in the Southern States . In the city of New Orleans alone , it has carried off upwards of 800 , mostly ! Germans , Irish , and Americans . The proportion ] of the English , Scotch , and other
European nations , are unall as compared with those we have inamed . The fever still lingered . The frost was expected to put it to . flight . That accompaniment I of winter had reached so far south as Mobile , and no doubt it would soon teach New Orleans also . ¦ ' By the new packet-ship Cobola , Captain Hepburn , which sailed from New York in company with the Patrick Henry , jand arrived at Liverpool , we have received intelligence from America and Canada a little later . i
