It was undoubtedly a very remarkable trial. From whatever point of view con. sidered, it was calculated to attract and fix attention. The crime sent a thrill of horror through the country, it was so daring and 8> cold-blovded. The viotim was a French gentleman, resident in Ireland, and noted as & man of kindly and charitable disposition; and the youth who was arrajgned for the terrible deed most certainly had not the face of a mur- derer. On tho contrary, his countenance was singularly mild and gentle in ex- pression, and in his bearing he appeared retiring rather than aggressive, The trial to which I allude was that of Thomas Halloran, for the murder of Gus- tave Thicbault, of Rockwell, on April 28, 1862, It commenced on Monday, June 23, 1802, in the court-house of Clonmel, the capital of the county of Tipperary. I have secen it frequently atafed that a legal gentleman of high rank, being examined before some com mission on the question of land tenure in Ireland, said that Tipperary, o far as it was ¢ ncerned, had settled that matter with the rifle. About the time of the murder of M. Thiebault the ancient and undying die- pute between the owners and the occupi- ers of land burst out with all its old bit- terness. Thereply of the bullet - on the one sideto the notice to quit on the other was, for the hundredth time tn our histo- ry, making men of all shades of opinion hang their heads, and pray that that God would send us some means of ending the unnatural strife. In the beginning of 1862 one of these periodical waves of agrarian crime swept over Munst.r. A gentleman named Fitzgerald was walking with his young wife on a road in the county of Limerick, when two assassins accosted them, and, with terrible daring slew him before her eyes. The body of an old msan named M.Guire was found fearfully mangled in a flold near Carrick-on-Suir. The sup- posed cause for his murder was that he had taken a farm from which another man had been evicted. Col. Knox, of Brittas Castle, in the county of Tippery, was set upon as he was riding one day, by two men, and his life attempted. In these circumstances the govern- ment determined to issue a special com- mission; and it was before this tribunal the trial of which I write took place. It opened in the court house in Clonmel on June 23, 1862, From that little space there, surrounded by iron bars, called the dock, hundreds of men went to their doom for having taken the law into their own hands and wreaked on some land- lord or agent or bailiff, what was called It was in such circumstances that the real | him to the corpes of the victim, and tied [day afternoc business of the trial commenced. The attorney-geveral, Mr. O'Hagan, rose to state the cass, crown to secure the conviotion of the prisoner. I had accordingly pictured to myeelf the kind of men who would do such work with thoroughness, and the pictares I had called up were not by any Means prepossessing. looked, then, upon the face of this man with great ou- riosity. Tho wig, that peculiar and, to my eye, not graceful article of drese, made his appearanco strange. But I could not help feoling that there was certawnly nothing ferocious or bloodthirsty in the countenance of this principal character in the terrible t: on which the cur- tain on which boen raised. “On the con- trary, to me spoke rather of oalmnesa and benevelence than of any of those characteristios which tell of a bad and malignant disposition. 1t was the face of a man calculated to make a most favorable firat impression; and before he had commenced to speak ull my pre-con- ceived notions had received a rude shook. He turned to the bench and to tho jury, and in & subdued and solemn voice, but with none of that sepulohral solemnity which seems to tell the twelve men that their business is to send the pris ner to the grave, commenced his statement, Alter a fow formal sentences he took his eyes from the jury. and resting his elbow on the ledgs of a bench behind him while he continued to toy with a piece of paper, went on to detail the facts which, the Crown held, connected the prisoner with the murder. The surprise which I had felt at his appearanco was surpassed by my surprise at the calm and impartial digunity of his words. There was no trace of partisan rancor. Thero was cloar- ly no attempt to strain any one point against the uofoptunate man in the dock. The faots were detailed 8o asto make a narrative that would abide in the mind. The brutal and cowardly character of the crimo was made manifest, but there was no effort to raise predudice against the prisoner on that account, unless the facts first brought the gui't hom to him. And now for the gist of the statement The victim was a Frenchman named Gus- tave Thiebault. e hada brother, Charles, for whom ho acted as_agent over some landed property, whilo he owued and managed some other land himself. He resided at Rockwell, in the South Rid- ing of the county of Tipperary. He was found lying on the roadside murdered, not far from his residence, on the after- noon of August 28, 18G2. A double bar- relled gun was lying under him with the stock smashed, and also a broken pitch- fork, and his face and head had been mercilessly battered in, The gun was his own, and its two charges had been Idged in his breast. These wero the circumstances which firat challenged the attention ot the police. Fullowing up his movementa on the fatal day, and the facts surrounding him, it was found that he had lefc his home about noon, having taken a child by the hand some distanca down the avenue, and thero relinquishod his little cnarge to the nurse, He cer- ried a gun, and was accompanied by a feroctous dog. It did not appear clearly, but the inference left was that this dog was kept for purposes of protection, as Thiebault had been in receipt of those missives, terrible to Irish landlords, known as threatening letters. - These had so disturbed his wife's peace that she insisted on his taking greater care in his movements; and it was stated that he said joking'y, when he thought her solic- From the rumors and anticipations for days beforo 1 was prepared to look on the proceodings as a desperato struggle on the part of the — THE CHEAPEST PLACE IN UMAHA TO BUY ’F s AT DEWEY & STONE'S, One of the Best and largest Stocks in the United States to select from.

He told his tale with deadly precision He was driving on his donkey cart. He saw two men in conversation by the side of the road, facing one another. One of them had his back to the fence, his face to the road, That man was M. Thie bault, whose mangled bodi was subse- quently found there. Did he know the other man? Yes, Tovk round and tell us if you can see him, Standing up, and looking steadily at the dock, he pointed to the prisoner. ‘‘Yes, there ho ls, Tom Haloran. A groan wont up from the body of the court. These words should certainly be Halloran's death knell. What advan- tage was thero now in prolonging the mrugglel The law had marked hi tiw ahd should have him. How did the prisonor bear it? I lvoked at him and whon he took his eyes from tho face of Woodlock he threw an earnest and ap. pealing glance toward the bench on which his counsel sat. There, he evidently be. lieved, waa his only hope. For tho rest he appeared calm and smiling. P’resently the direct examination closed and it was now the time for the strugglo. Mr. M.D magh, the advoeats for the risoner, was smiling and apparantly oking with one of the Crown counsel, It seomed as if he did uot foel that there was any responsibility on him. As he rose ho was still whispering in tho ear of his friend; and, as he drew hLimsolf to his full height they both indulged in a hearty chackle, 1Italmost sickened me to see such levity and indifference, while the creature in tho, dock, innocent or guilty, must be suftering something like the tortures of the regions below. This strange advocate seemed in no hasto to commence, He turned over tho leaves of his brief, made a few remarkr ip undertone to his junior, and then gave what appeared to me to bo & somewhat comical side glance a% the crown coun- sel before referred to who smiled, shook s head and threw his eyes in the direc- on of the witness. A'l this passed raj idly but my eyes and mind were fixed on this strange advoocate, His face wus white and rather wrink- led, ana it struck me that it would not be out of place on the shoulders of a graceful and fashionable old lady. His attitude and his action were so exceed- ingly graceful—atudied, T thought—that they seemed finioal. The wig concesled his head so that I could not observe but the mouth aud lips were a study, they were so flexible and mccile. As he stood there, & smile playing over his face. 1 thought him a man whose lead- ing characteristic was humorous and very caustic sarcasm, Suddenly he shot n prercing glance at the . witness, swayed slghtly aud gracefully from side to aide, dangling his glasses, and then com- menced. Soft as the smile of a mother, greateful as the cooing of a babe, were his first accents, Those who expected the lightening and the thunder were dis- sppointed. Had Woodlock been his brother the toue could not be more bland or soothing. He asked some trivial questions of a formal nature, and before one minute had elapsed the look of anxiety and fear had left the face of the witness, and succeeded by one rather easy and indifforent. As soon as this stage was reached a change, rather slight though, abruptly came over the manner of the advocate. A harshness crept into his tone. “‘\aus there not an inquestin this case, Mr. Woodlock?” The witness said there wa had been examined atit.

The legal men who took prominent in this trial were atthat day known 1n Ireland as men of very great ability. And when I mention their names it will be seen that the estimate of their coun- trymen was correct for most of them havesince placed themselves in the very front ranks in their profession in the kingdom and to-day some of them are of world wide repute. The court consisted of Mr. Baron Deasy, subsequently lord Justice of appeal, and Mr. Justice Fitz- wearald, since raised to the peerage as Lord Fitzgerald and now a member of the house of lords, The prosecuting counsel were Mr. O'Hagan, attorney goneral, now Lord O'Hagan, and twice lord chancellor of Ireland; Mr. Lawson, solicitor general, the present di:tinguish- ed judge of that name; and Mr. Ser- geaut Armstrong. The prisoner was de- fouded by one of the ablest men at the Irish or any other bar, Mr. Francis Mc- Donagh, sssisted by, I think a Mr. John- son, When the proceedings commenced the court was densely crowded. Tne pop ular mind was in a state of great excite- meut, and the sympathy of the crowd showed iteelf on the side of the pris-uer. the crime was agrariau, 1t was another act in the long drawn out land war, and that was suflicient to enlist the masses in his favor. That this feeling did not arise from & wicked liking for crime was made very manifest during these days.

The formation of the jury was closely As a precaution he was also occasionally accompauied by a herder named Connors. He was nex* seen standing on the side of a road, leaning on his gun, his back to the fence, in conversation with a wan who was facing him resting on a pitch- fork, and within a few feat of him. This view was had by a man named Woodlock, the leading w'n.nui!or the prosecution, and his eyes, with the exception of those of the murderer, were the last which saw the unfortunate gentleman alive. Wood- lock was taking a harrow which he had borrowed to its owner. He was seated on the side of a donkey-cart and drove slowly up the hill past the two men when he reached the summit ho heard the report of a gun-shot immediately fol- lowed by another and turning, ho saw smoke rising from the spot on which the two men had been conversing. On this spot was found the dead body of M. Thie- bault. He swore that Thomas Halloran was the man he saw leaning on the pitch- fork, There was other evidence cor- roporative of the theory put forward by the crown, that the man in the dock was the murderer; but this was the back- bone of their case, and if it stood the tesh and went unshaken to the jury, fow indeed would be the days of the young man looking out from the dock, When the attorney general sat down, some formal evidence was goneinto amid almost breathless silena. It was not tho evidenco now being given that occnpied the minds of the sudience, for they did not give much attention to it. Almost overy man there was speculating on Woodlock—what manner of man he was; how would he give his evidence? Would he hang Halloran? And, in the whispers of the country people standing around, the oprobrious epithet*‘informer” was fre- quently hissed with vengeful venom \\'htu at length the name of Woodlock was called there was an impatient stir snd a murmer. When footfalls were heard approaching, everyneckwas craned to get a view of this man, who was supposed to hold the balance of hfe anrd death, When he got on the witness ta- ble, and stood out in full view before us, watched, I was among the spectators, and, knowing nothing of the inner work- ings of the procudiuin before me, 1 could not see beneath the surface, but from the remarks of the crowd around, 1 coul? perceive thatif there wasa strong fecling enlisted on the side of the pris- oner there were also feelings not friendly to him, but not so numerously represent- ed, One of the threng, well dressed and evidently moving ia the upper circles, after surveying the jury, turned to a companion and said: p “There could not be a better jury. They are all country gentlemen—all too, 1 think, in the Cor mission of the Peace.’ The other side of the question was not long in coming. A rather tattered look- ing agriculturalist ejuculated for the ben- efit of all around: “Oh! Wisha! May the Lord protect the poor buy! 1 know every man on the jury, and he is ecither a landlord or s magistrate,” And this was the state of affairs in the court house, On one side there was sat- isfaction that the tribunal was comwposed of gentlemen of position and intelligence, who would know the value of evidence d whose verdiot would. be according to it, On the other there was apprehension, doubt, distrust, that the men in the box, taken from the same class as the murder- lld man, would not require much pressure to induce them to send the peasantin the dock from where he stood to the scaffold, there was not much to be seen, He was a man oyer seventy years of age. His ap- earance was very shabby, e wore an ancient brownish red wig. His coat was rusty looking and very old, and his hat, which he, with great self possession for & man of his opportunities, laid quietly down beside his chair, showed that its owner was walking one of the humbler paths of life, Altogether his appearance was shady. His face was weatherbeaten, and the flesh about his eyes was com- pressed and wrinkled and gave him a shrewd and inquisitive look. Meeting him casually, and not under such trying circumstauces, I have no doubt he would present the sppearance of an intelligent man of bis class. But the grave nature of his position gave him an anxious, sus- picious aspect, which did not tell in his favor. The crown took him in hand very gin- gerly. He wan treated with kindnees and consideration, His answers were received with smiles and as he went on he was made to feel at every stop that he was putting the right foot rorward. And so he was, His evidence was given clearly, consistently, and quietly. Kvery word of the opening stetement, as far a4 it concerned him, was distinctly proved.
