TRIAL OF WHALEN.
{From the St. John Morning Telegraph.]
The trial of Whalen at Ottawa, for the
murder of Hon, Thomas DâArey McGee,
commenced on Monday the 7th inst. We
give below some interesting particulars
in connection with this important event:â
WHELANâS APPEARANCE IN COURT.
_Outin the yard there was a little proces-
sion, Between two policemen, who watch-
ed their man closely, came Whalen, and
behind were other watehful men, âihe

his trerible positicn. He looks pale and
anxious, a slight pink tinge on his rather
prominent cheek bones, being the only
particle of color on his face, Otherwise he
looks well enough, indicating that the pri-
son fare has not disagreed with him, He
sits in the dock restless and neryous, ran-
ning his fingers through his beard and

intention was to tike Mar, ieeâs life in
his ewn house, and they made an attempt
to do so some time previous to his going
to Ottawa to: ttend to his duties as a mem-
berof Parliament. Fortunitely Mr. M Gee's
brother was in the house when the attempt
wasmuade. Ile opered the doorat 2 or 3
o'clock in the morning when the prisoner
entered and alleged that he Âą for a
friendly purpose, namely. to give warning
that the murder was to be committed that

the visit was apparently for a triendly
purpose, he wis reecived in the study,
when he then gaye information that. the
house was to be attacked, Ile said there
was a violent enmity between two partics
respecting the maticr. In the study a note
was written by Mr. M'Gve to the Chict of
Police advising him of the intended attempt
to murderhim, and the prisoner undertook
to deliver it, But he did not deliver itun-
til 3 hours alterwards, although according
from
attueked within two hours. It would also
be shown that the prisoner entertained a
very strong and bittey enmity against the
deceased. He had charged hinâ with being
v traitor to his country and having sold her
nd lrequently threatened vengeance
nsthim, Such were the views ind
chings of the prisoner, and only too
well did he carry them out. It will be
shown that ata tavern in Montreal kept by
one Duggan, the prisoner met other per
sons, and that not only was the prisoner
selceted to do the bloody deed, bucthat he
was addressed by one ot his companions in
these wordsâ* Sullivan, you are the man to
do the deed.â
It will also be shown that when Mr.Me-
Gee came to Ottawa to attend his Parlia-
mentary duties, that Whalen came also,
When dir. MGee took sick and went to
Montreal, so did the prisoner, and when
he returned to Ottawa the prisoner follow-
ed him again. Although cmployed as a
tailor in Moutreal at good wag nal wl-
though his wile was there, and he had a
house rented there, he lett and went to Ot-

would be shown that whenever Mr. MP Gee

TRIAL OF WHALEN.
{From the St. John Morning Telegraph.]
The trial of Whalen at Ottawa, for the
murder of Hon, Thomas DâArey McGee,
commenced on Monday the 7th inst. We
give below some interesting particulars
in connection with this important event:â
WHELANâS APPEARANCE IN COURT.
_Outin the yard there was a little proces-
sion, Between two policemen, who watch-
ed their man closely, came Whalen, and
behind were other watehful men, âihe
procession moyed across the gaol yard to
the Court House, and a moment huer they

neglected. The appearance of the prison-
er is Whit might be expeeted from one in
his trerible positicn. He looks pale and
anxious, a slight pink tinge on his rather
prominent cheek bones, being the only
particle of color on his face, Otherwise he
looks well enough, indicating that the pri-
son fare has not disagreed with him, He
sits in the dock restless and neryous, ran-
ning his fingers through his beard and
twirling his moustache almost inec

everyone, therefore, makes an attempt to
do so. Thereisa general straining of eyes

in Montreal, and the jrisoner
the first one of the conspirators,
intention was to tike Mar, ieeâs life in
his ewn house, and they made an attempt
to do so some time previous to his going
to Ottawa to: ttend to his duties as a mem-
berof Parliament. Fortunitely Mr. M Gee's
brother was in the house when the attempt
wasmuade. Ile opered the doorat 2 or 3
o'clock in the morning when the prisoner
entered and alleged that he Âą for a
friendly purpose, namely. to give warning
that the murder was to be committed that
very morning at four o'clock. Secing thut
the visit was apparently for a triendly
purpose, he wis reecived in the study,
when he then gaye information that. the
house was to be attacked, Ile said there
was a violent enmity between two partics
respecting the maticr. In the study a note
was written by Mr. M'Gve to the Chict of
Police advising him of the intended attempt
to murderhim, and the prisoner undertook
to deliver it, But he did not deliver itun-
til 3 hours alterwards, although according
from
attueked within two hours. It would also
be shown that the prisoner entertained a
very strong and bittey enmity against the
deceased. He had charged hinâ with being
v traitor to his country and having sold her
nd lrequently threatened vengeance
nsthim, Such were the views ind
chings of the prisoner, and only too
well did he carry them out. It will be
shown that ata tavern in Montreal kept by
one Duggan, the prisoner met other per
sons, and that not only was the prisoner
selceted to do the bloody deed, bucthat he
was addressed by one ot his companions in
these wordsâ* Sullivan, you are the man to
do the deed.â
