'l‘llE CONVEN’I‘ CASE.

From the European Mail.

In the Court of Queen's Bench. on Thursday. February 24'). the Solicitor-(Ecu- cval resumed and concluded his address for the plaintiff. in the action brought by Miss Lani-in against the into and the pre- sent superior of tho liull convent. 11c minuter examined fhe basis on which the defence was founded. that the plaintiff was not suited for a Conventional lilo, und. in arguing against it, quoted Iortluns of the evidence to prove that, uni cl propel-Innu- :Igcniont, she would have become an ex- cellent llllll. The Lord Chief Justice on the following day proceeded to sum up the case to the jury.

Friday was lilo 20111 and last day of the hearing of lhis extraordinary case. The interest was intense. The crowds around the entrances were greater than on any fornicl'occusion, and the court was well filled before half-past nino o‘clock. and as soon as the court was filled the doors were fastened to preventuuy disturbance during the summing up.

The Lord Chief Justice, in commencing his summing up, congratulated the jury most heartily at their having arrived at the closing day of this monster case. 11o rc— greftcd that so iuuch valuable time had been 1051 by them, and on pllblic grounds that so many cases of importance had to be postponed ill order to investigate the miserable jcnlonsics of convent life, which be thought might have been bi'llt.“ and ought to have been investigated by the vis‘lloriul powers oi tllo convent; but the case was here, and 11on must put aside all l'eligiousfecliug, and recollect tllul. that question was not at all mixed up 111 it. The purlics were all members ut the suue religious body, and thcy llnd bound thum- sclves by certain volvs, Iuh-s_ nild regula- tions. The question was whether 111 car- l‘ying out those rules the defendants had acted wrongly. The trial. he thoughtde acquired a iacfitious importance, mid they must take care that neither party dci‘ivcd any undue advantage from the religious element that was mixed up in it. The plaintiff complained first of an assault in the stripping in May. 186.5; then that she bud been illegally ixIIprisoncd; that the defendant. had converted scvcrul urticlcs of hers to her own use; fourlhly of a libel; and lastly of u conspiracy, which was the most important of thc whole—first to force her from the convent by ill-usage; and. secondly, having so failed, have her ex- pelled. To assist them ill coming to a JIISI. conclusion it would be his business to givo lhclu n history of the case, which ex- tended ol'eLincl'iudof'lbyeui‘s. He should coninicucu wllil licl‘untry llllU llugot street, ili 18.30. dividing the period from that lime to her leaving the convent into several

he told them that flicvo hull been strong evidence with reference to the plaintiff being imprisoned within the convent, and that. if they believed that portion of “IV evidence he would ask them to award but damages ill respect to her imprisonment, irrespective of their verdict upon the other charges. In dis Iissing the Jury, he said with regard to tho )opulai‘ feeling (tho cchocs of which IliltI been heard within those walls) of on unthinking populace. chcel‘ing null booting \vlihou. any know- ledge of lhc rcul merits or demerits of the case. ought. to find and would filld :l. pro- per reply in the breasts of twulvo holiest. intelligent men. who had come to dis~ charge, and would discharge. the must solemn duties mun could be called upon to discharge.

Inn very short time Mr. Gladstone will make his first motion towards the discs- tnbiishmcnt of the irish Church. by pro- posing the Ilppuintulcnt of n Committee of enquiry. It is nutlikcly that this will be seriously opposed. The public decision upon the question has been so plainly de- clared, that it is hardly probable the up- position will court the velluiufy of defeat by a direct motion on tho lililill question. pure and simple, as to the ex Icliicncy oi discslublisbing the Irish Churc 1; they are much more likely to set up u gucl'illu war- 19.10, which may prove harassing to their adversaries, and perhaps may enable them to ublnin some slight advantage at all 1111- guarded point; but, as file Times has said, lbo Irish I-lslublishment may even now be almost reckoned among the things that have been.

The proposal to cnlrnst I‘lill'fllifll Serrano with the formation ol‘llu- new (Tubiuot in Spain, nller an animated Ill-bate. has been carried in the Cortes by a largo majority.

Spain is promisod relief of hcrpccuuiury lliflicullics from u very extraordinary and romantic source. A company has been formed to recover the bullion and treasure said to have been lost in the Spanish gul- leons which wvrc sunk by the English in file harbor of Vigo, in the your 1702. The vessels are bohcvcd to have had on board. when they sank. treasure to tile value of upwards of fourteen million pieces oi eight. According to n. contemporary. the “ piece of eight." is the Maud!) of eight oclmcas. worth at that time 53. Did. Colonel (jolv- cn, who was so successful in raising the Russian llccl ut Sebastnpool, has examined the vessels, and reports that l o " is coul- plctely satisfied as to the pi" Ilcabillty of recovering the treasure.“ The Spanish Government is to receive 25 per cent. of all treasures recovered.

The extraordinary cusu ill which a Sisfcl' of Mercy has claimed dnnlugl-s lroui lhc Superiurs 01 her convent for assault, ini- pl‘isoulueut. libel. and conspir: 'y to drive her from the convent by ill-treatment, has at last. after at trial of twenty days, been brought to a conclusion. Lute on the evening of February 26 the jury returned a verdict for the defendants on the chmch ol'nssuultond imprisonment, but for the pl:lilitill‘on the accounts for libel and C01]- spiracy, and lhcy gave donnich to the amount ofL'fnhl, including £300, which it appears was the plaiulill‘s “ dowry" when she entered the convent. Nu ("sum over occupied so many days ill trial as this. am] though all cullccrncil it—jndgc, jury, and counsel—were heartily tired of if. the pub- lic Illll :st ill the case was unflugging. ‘l‘ho vcl'llicf.
