MRi CURRAN’S SPEECH,
[ Every reader of tafie , ive are confident ,
will be highly gratified by the following
abfiraSl of the Speech of mk. CURRAN,
to evidence , in the late Crim. Con’s tri
al in Ireland, Maflcy v the Marquis of
Head!art,] Lon. Lap,
Never fa clearly as In the present instance
have I observed that fafe guard of jullice,
which Providence has placed in the na
ture of man. Such is the imperious domi
nion with which truth and realbn wave
their fccfhre over the human inrelleri? that
no fdlicitatioil, however artful, no fotlenr,
however commanding cart reduce its allegi
ance; In proportion tq the humility gs our
fuhmiQion to its rule, do warilc iiiyo Cgmo
hunt emulation of that ineffable and presid
ing divinity whose attr&ure
coerced and bound by the inexorable laws
of its own natuie, so as to be allwife and
alljuft from nc&ffity rather than clcClion.
Ydu have seen it in the learned advocate
who has peceded me, mod peculiarly and
strikingly illullratcd. You have seen his
great talents, perhaps the full in any
country, languishing under a catife too
>eak to carry him and too heavy to be car
ried by him. He was forced to dismiss his
natural candor and fmccrity, and having
no merit in this case, to take refuge in the
dignity of his own manner, the re
foitrces of his own ingeniity, from the o
verw helming difficulties with which he wa#
surrounded. The learned counsel has told
you that this unfortunate woman is not tef b«
elfimated at forty thousand pounds—fatal
and unqueftionablc is the truth of this ail’cr
lion. Alas ! Gentlemen, {he is no longer
worthy any thing ; faded, fallen, degrad
ed and difgraccd, the is worth lets than no
thing ! But it is for the honor, the hope,
the expectation, the. ttndcrncfs, and tha
comforts that have been blaitod by thede-'
fendanr, and have fled forever, that you are
to remunerate the plaintiff, b ys the punilh
ment of the defendant. It is nor her present
value which you arc to weigh—but ft is
her value at the time when fhc fat balking,
in a husband’s love vyth the bleffipg of
Heaven on her head, and its purity in her
heart j when flic fat amongst her family,
and administered the morality of the paren
tal board j elhmutc that pall value—com
pare it with its present, deplorable dimi
nution—and it may lead you to learn some
judgirient of ths severity of the injury, and
she extent of the compcnfation. The learn
ed counsel has referred you to other cases,
and other countries, for inftahee# of mode,
rate verdirii. I can refef yefu to some au
thentic inflanres of just ones. In the next

What then ought to be the rule, where
rank and power, and wealth, and (latiun,
have combined to render the example off his
crime more dangerous—to make his guilt
more odious--.to make the injury to the
plaintiff more grievous, because. more con
fpicuoos ? 1 a fieri no levelling familiarity,
when I (peak of peffons in the higher rank of
fociety—diftinriions of orders are neccflary,
and I always fed disposed to treat them
with refperi—but when it is my duty to
fpcak of the crime# by which they are de
graded, I am not so faftidious as to shrink
from theif contari, when to touch them is
effcntial to their differiion. However,
therefore, I should fed on airy other occa
sion a disposition to (peak of the noble de
fendant with a respect duo to his llation,
and perhaps to his qualities, of which he
may have many, to redeem him from the
odium of this tranfadion, 1 cannot so in
dulge myfdf here, 1 cannot betray my cli
ent to avoid the pain of doing my duty.
I cannot forget that in thisariron,- the con
dition, condirri and circurndances of the
parties are peculiarly the objects of your
confederation. Who then are the parties ?
the plaintiff young, amiable, of family and
education. Os tiic generous dlfintcrdle?-
mf> of his heart, you can form an opinion
from the evidence of the defendant/ that
declined an alliance which would Jirave add
ed to his fortune and confederation, and which
It - rejected for an unptoporituned union with
his present w ile, bhe too a, that time was
young, beautiful and accompUfhed; and
feeling her affection for her husband increah;
in proportion as flie remembered the atdi-ur
; of his love, and the finccrity of hisfacri
