It was surely the busi- ness of the Government to have such acts at forth in the indictment, and not keep them as kind of resoria charge, wherewith to knoele down the prisonex, should o escape the more elaborate fire of the Court. There was also one feature which made it especially in eumbent on the Executive to respect the verdict of the jury in the caso under notice. The nature of the proceedings was such that they could not be published, and consequeatly the nan stands without any means of vindi- eating his character. All that is known now is that the jury said he was innocent and the Executive declared he was guilty; and, with this amount of satisfaction from English Law and Justice, he is cast upon the world a dis. graced and ruined man.
