Mr. Erskine. My Lord, Mr. O'Brien, who was included in this indictment, came here for the purpose of surrendering himself; if you can spare a few minutes to have him arraigned, I believe I may trust to the candour of the learned Gentlemen on the part of the prosecution, that they have no further evidence.

Mr. Morgan. I cannot say I can give stronger evidence against him than I have already given.
