The jury, after retiring about twenty minutes, brought in a verdict of “Guilty.” The foreman then said, that he had been desired by his brother jurors to express the horror they felt at the conduct of Mr. Scott; and to say, that, in their opinion, he ought to have been placed at the bar along with the prisoners. Mr. Justice Vaughan said, he quite agreed with the jury as regarded Mr. Scott. Mr. Chambers said, he was instructed by the brother of the deceased, who had felt it his duty to institute this prosecution, to recommend the prisoners to mercy, on account of the excellent character they had received. Mr. Justice Vaughan said, the recommendation should be attended to; but for the present the Court would order, that sentence of death should be recorded against the prisoners, and they would from that understand that their lives would be spared. The sentence of death was afterwards commuted to twelve months’ imprisonment in Guildford gaol; the last month to be passed in solitary confinement. Eliot and Broughton had escaped abroad. The parties appealing to this barbarous code of refined honour could, apparently, claim only a very doubtful gentility. Eliot was the nephew of an innkeeper at Taunton, and recently an officer in the British Auxiliary Legion in Spain; Mirfin was the son of a mercer at Doncaster, and had kept a linen-draper’s shop in Tottenham-court Road; and Young was the son of a brick-maker at Haddenham, near Aylesbury. The disgusting exhibition at Wimbledon in this case is believed to have done much to bring the practice of duelling into ridicule and detestation. BETWEEN THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY AND MR. GRATTAN. January 13, 1839. In consequence of some expressions which were made use of by the Marquis of Londonderry in the House of Lords, in reference to a speech reported to have been made by Mr. Henry Grattan at a public meeting in Dublin, Mr. Grattan addressed a letter of inquiry to the Marquis, to which the following answer was returned:— “Holdernesse House, June 12. “Lord Londonderry presents his compliments to Mr. Henry Grattan. Lord Londonderry read, in his place in the House of Lords, an extract from the reports of the newspapers of a speech of Mr. O’Connell’s, stated to have been made at a public meeting in Dublin, to address the Queen; in which accusations were made against that party to which Lord Londonderry is proud to belong. The paragraph Lord L. cited is as follows:—‘Mr. Grattan had said, that her Majesty’s life would not be safe if the Tories came into power; and he (Mr. O’Connell) declared solemnly he was convinced she would not live six months, if that event took place.’ Lord Londonderry at once admits, if these sentiments are accurately reported, accusing the Tory party of the intention of murdering the Queen, he considers them as base and infamous. It was to such accusations Lord Londonderry’s epithets applied.”
