Our excellent Assistant-Barristr, P.M. MUJRPHY, Esq., Q.C., was in his usual health and spirits, and seemed nothing daunted at the formidable array of criminal business before him, though there were more than a hundred and thirty numbers on the crown book. Most of the felony cases were of a trifling nature, serving rather to shew the poverty than the depravity of the prisoners in the dock. The numerous parties against whom Mr. HASSARD, of Bailieborough, swore informations for a riot and assault (of which particulars appeared in a late number of the ANGLO-CELT) had a cross case against the prosecutor, Mr. M'GAURAN appeared for Mr. HASSARD and Mr. James ARMSTRONG for the MALLENS and those who acted with them. After the Assistant-Barrister allowed all the parties to traverse in prox, Mr. HASSARD rose and asked permission to speak a few words? Assistant-Barrister--Certainly. Mr. HASSARD--Your worship, I have not the least objection to these people, though their conduct has been most outrageous traversing in prox; but I should like to put your worship in possession of the facts of the case. Barrister--Not now, Mr. HASSARD; when the case comes regularly before me, I shall be prepared to hear what you have got to say. (Discussion regarding an affidavit) After some more conversation, it was finally settled by the court that parties should be bound over to keep the peace, and that the case should be tried at the next Bailieborough Sessions.
