Mr. Phillips addressed the Court \\h\ Jury, on behalf of the Plaintiff, in the following eloquent speech : My Lord and Goutlem-n,—lam, with my learned brethren Counsel for the Plaintiff. My friend, Mr. Cumin, imi told you the nature uf the action. it has fallen to my lot to state more at large to >ou (he aggression by which it lias beeu occasioned.

It is now about iive-and-twentyyears since the plaintiff, Mr.Creightoii,eotrt- menced business as a slate merchant, >n rlie city of Dublin. Ills vocation was humble, but it was nevertheless honest, and though unlike Itis opponent the heights of ambition la> uot before him. the path of respectability did—he Iihs proved himself n good man, and a res- pertable citi/cn. Arrived at thx- aire of manhood, he sought not the gratifi¬ cation of its natural desires by n-lultc- rj or seduction. For him the home of honesty wassacreel ; for hi© the poor mail's child wad Maassailed. iVo do¬ mestic desolation mourned his enjoy* mnnt; no anniversary of woe commem* orated his achievement?. From his own sphere of life naturally and bono- rable he selected a companion, whose beauty blessed ins b* d, aud whose vir¬ tues consecrated his dwelling. Eleven lovely children blessed their union, the darlings of their heart, the delight of fiieir evenings ; aud, as they blindly anticipated, the prop and solace at (heir approaching age.
