ITALY• (111,011 OCR OWN CORIESPONDENT.) TURIN, 'Wes 30. In a previous letter I stated that Colonel Fumel, to whom allusion has been made in the French Chamber and the English parliament, had rendered great services in Italy against the brigands, but that be had not been guilty of the cruelty of which he was accused. I said that he bad committed the error of publishing a violent proclamation, but that it was merely intended to excite fear, nothing more. Let me now add that the Calabrians them- , selves, with a view of terrifying the brigands still , more, give him an almost fabulous reputation. Prone, like all the people of the South, to exaggerate, and urged by their interests, they magnify his exploits without remembering that foreigners make use of their testimony to damage the Italian government. But how can we expect a Calabrian to care what the rest of Europe says t Meanwhile these exaggera. tions have succeeded so thoroughly that very few of the people dare to ply the brigand trade, so great ' is the terror inspired by the fame of this marvellous conqueror. Nay more, some of the Calabrian bri- 1 gands have actually fled into other provinces in order to avoid meeting him. I am far, however,l from asserting that all the foreign critics of Italy l who have spoken of Colonel Fumel have not be- 1 lieved what they advanced when they described him as a species of monster. The mistake was so likely to be made that even the Neapolitan corre spondent of the Opinione fell into it, and described the colonel, in one of his excellent letters, exactly as the colonel had been described to him by many Cala brians with whom he was in frequent communication. Thus, for the reasons I have just given, an autho rity which seemed trustworthy was itself the means of disseminating very inoorrect statements respect ing this matter. Some of those statements referred to the number of brigands shot and taken prisoner. We have now details obtained by the Commission of Inquiry, and an official despatch from the Prefect of Cosenza, by which we learn that the number of brigands shot by Colonel Fume' was 85, and of those arrested little more than 300. And it could not well be otherwise, considering the total number of the Calabrian brigands. Real severity and ima ginary severity have, however, done so much that the Calabrians are at present enjoying security, and petitions are ooming in from all parts re questing that Colonel Fumel may not return to Piedmont, but remain where be is. A full report upon the brigandage and its causes, with the measures necessary for suppressing it, is being drawn up, and a bulky report it will be. The reporter is the Neapolitan member, Signor Maslen, who was secretary to the Commission of Inquiry during its visit to the infested districts. To-day the President of the Council opened the sitting by stating that the government would have liked to close the session on that occasion, and to commence a new session immediately after Easter. Several reasons, however, prevented thin, foremost among them being the desire of the government to have the due and regular authorisation for levying the taxes. He announced, therefore, that the recess would commence on the follow ing day (to-morrow), and last until the Thurs day after Easter. The minister will then beg the house to hasten its own labours, he will present some few organic measures, and, after the official number of sittings have been de voted to these questions, the unduly long session which commenced on the 18th of February, 1861, will be brought to a close. Following the Duke de Chartres, we have had the Count de Paris here. He stayed for a few days, and left yesterday. It does not appear that his visit had any political object. Both visitors moved among us almost unnoticed, and saw but little company. It has been rumoured that the Prince di Carig nano recently had a break-down in the carriage which conveyed him from the railway station to his own house and seriously injured. The prince was really overturned, but he sustained no injuries, and is perfectly safe and sound. The iXtbaness with which the recent ministerial changes have been received has improved Italian credit both at home and abroad. People seem to feel that the public mind is tranquillised, that the opposition has no ground to work upon, and that public business commands more attention than per rivalries. This is an excellent symptom, promising a period of peace and of order which must greatly contribute to the prosperity of Italy. THE DISTRESS IN LANCASHIRE. A publio meeting of the unemployed operatives al Hyde and the neighbourhood was held at the Tem perance-hall. Hyde, on Tuesday eight. " to take into con sideration the position of the uuemployed operatives, sad the plans which have been submitted to them by the local relief committee." Upwards of 400 operatives, the greeter part of whom were recipients of relief, attended the meeting. Mr. W. Lee, • factory operative, but not a recipient of re lief, occupied the chair. In opening the proceedings he said be believed the working classes had only to express any just grievance, and the relief committee would do their beet to remedy it. Mr. T. Williamson then read • memorial, which, after stating the williogness of the memorialists to work, proceeds as follows That your memorialists, having been informed of your intention to find week for all in receipt of relief, cannot help expreming their belief that the arrangements made by your committee are such ea could not be approved of by the subscribers to the relief fund. Your memorialista admit that the gentle° ha often been asked by them why work has not been found for the oat-of-work operative, and it is their opinion that the reason why many pv• so generously was that they were helping to raise a feed that would open up new emcee of temporary employment that would be produc tive of such remuneration to the operatives as would provide them with the uecesomies of life until the revival of the cotton trade." The memorial then goes 00 to urge that the recipients of relief should Dot be employed in opening sewers, from which they may have to throw dirt ten or eleven feet, for such a remuneration as 2s. 68. per I week. Mr. Williamson, in moving the adoption of the I memorial, said he considered the relief committee were I not doing right to the recipients of relief in offeriog them such work as was referred to. It was taking men out of ' warm mills and putting them into a sink. He urged that the committee were now refusing to relieve men not factory operatives, who were need to this kind • ci work, and more 6t to perform it, and said, if they (the factory operatives) began to do each work, instead of healthy men, when the mill resumed operations they would he cripples. The motion was seconded by Mr. James Beard. The Chairmen deprecated the idea of taking men who had been working in an atmosphere of some 70 or 80 degrees of heat and putting them to work in a sewer, and urged that men equal to each work would require more food than could be found onto( 21. 6d. pat week. Mr. John Wardle, • deputy from Ashton-under-Lyee, supported the resolution. He advocated the formation of a general emaciation of working men on the subject ci relief. He thought that from such meetings as these they would ob tain redress. It would be, he thought, • loop time before they should be able to work in the factory again. They had had to live on charity, and they could not expect to be supplied as if in work, but they did think it was the bounden duty of government to fled them remunerative work, or if not, to make them a grant from the ommelidated fund, for they did know this, that they had • right to live in this country. The guardians had given • certain amount of relief, and humane men had come forward to supple ment that relief, beelines they knew that what was obtained from the guardians was imuffieient for their maia teeeeen The relief committer and the partition were now working together to rodeos the relief. bat they (the re cipients) thought that whet wee proposed to be allowed them was too small, sad they thiregore WMP l a il ' ea.

GLAISHE'R'S NINTH BALLOON ASCENT FOR SCIENTIFIC PURPOSES. One of the principal subjects of research in the balloon experiments of last year was the de termination of the law of decrease of temperature with increase of elevation. It is a subject to which very great interest is attached, and to the determi nation of which a great deal of labour and research have been devoted, resulting in the adoption of the theory of a uniform rate of decrease of 1 deg. of Fahrenheit's scale for every increase of 300 feet. The results from my several ascents last season were, that when the sky was clear a decline of 1 deg. took place within 100 feet of the earth, whilst at the height of 30,000 feet a space of fully 1,000 feet I had to be passed fora change of 1 deg. of tempera ! tore, and that between these limits a gradually increasing space was required for a change of tem ; perature to the same amount, plainly indicating that the theory of a decline of temperature for every 900 feet of elevation must be abandoned. The previous eight balloon ascents were made in i the months July, August, and September. It be came of the highest importance to have similar ex perimenta in the other months of the year, and the British Association, at its meeting in Cambridge, voted 2001. for experiments to be begun in the spring, and some of them, if possible, during the prevalence of east winds. The first of these absents took place with Mr. Coxwell's large balloon, on Tuesday last, March 31, from the grounds of the Crystal Palace, by the kind i pertnisaion of the directors. The gas was prepared by Mr. Ohren, the engineer of the Crystal Palace gas works ; and the several instruments were pre pared by Messrs. Negretti and Zambra, the former gentleman being on the ground to adjust them before starting. The balloon left the earth at 411. 18m. p.m., the temperature of the air being 50deg. At 4h. 25w. we were one mile high, with a temperature of 331 deg. ; the second mile was reached at 4h. 35w., with a temperature of 26 deg. ; the third mile at 4b. 44m., when the temperature was 14 deg. ; and at 31 miles high the temperature was 8 deg. A warm current of air was then met with, and the temperature rose to 12 deg., at 4h. 58w. At sh. 2m. we passed out of this current, and when 41 miles high the tempe rature was just zero of Fahrenheit's scale. In descending the temperature increased to 11 deg. at about three miles high, at bh. 38w., then a cold current was met with and it decreased to 7 deg. We soon pawed through it, and the tempera ture increased to 181 deg at two miles high ; to 251 deg. at one mile, and to 42 deg. on the ground, which was reached at 6h. 30m. The air was dry before leaving the earth ; it be came very dry at heights exceeding two miles, and at heights exceeding four miles the temperature of the dew point was fully minus 40 deg. The course of the balloon on leaving the earth was from the east, and continued so till about 4h. 30m., when it changed, and at 4h. 45m. the Crystal Palace appeared under U 8 ' • its course again changed, and we met with several different currents of air. When one mile high, the deep roar of London was beard distinctly, and its murmuring noise was heard at a greater elevation. At the heights of three and four miles, the view was indeed wonder ful—the plan-like appearance of London and suburbs, the map-like appearance of the country round • then, running the eye down the winding Thames, the white cliffs at Margate, and on to Dover ; Brighton was seen and the sea beyond, and all the coast line was clear up to Yarmouth. The north was obscured by clouds looking under us, and to the south there were many detached cumuli clouds resting apparently on the earth like patches of shining wool, and in some places a solitary cloud thus apparently resting on the earth, sur rounded by a clear space for many miles. Looking towards Windsor, the Thames was like burnished gold, and the surrounding water like bright silver. Looking towards Putney, the rip pling of the water along the banks of the river was distinctly seen. Railway trains were the only moving objects visible, and they looked like creeping things, caterpillar-like, and the steam like a narrow line of serpentine mist. Taking a grand view over the whole visible plain beneath, one was struck with its regularity ; the view did not seem natural, it was too even, apparently artificial. The effect of the river scenery was very remarkable in this re spect : all the ships looked very diminutive, but ware visible beyond the Medway. At 5 we could plainly distinguish Greenwich park like a garden, and the Royal Observatory as a grey speck • the Green Man Hotel, Blackheath, was quite distinct. All the docks were mapped out, and every object of moderate size was seen clearly with the naked eye. At the height of 31 miles Mr. Coxwell said my face was glowing purple, and afterwards both our faces were very blue. At heights exceeding 3 mile* the feet and tips of the fingers were very cold. The sky was of a deep Prussian blue, when 3 miles high. On descending, Mr. Coxwell, forgetful of the fact of the grapnel having been exposed to a temperature of zero, in mutiously took hold of it with his naked hands, and cried out in pain that he was scalded, and he called me to assist him to drop it The sensation was exactly that of scalding water. The blackness creeping over the land at sunset was very remark able, whilst the sun was still shining on us. The general results of this ascent confirm, in a remarkable degree, those obtained from the pre ceding experiments, sad indicate that very few more extreme high ascents will be necessary for this purpose. I cannot close this account without again express ing my sense of the great skill and judgment of Mr. Coxwell. The circumstances of this ascent were peculiar, laving the earth early in the season, with a cold east wind, to pass high up into still colder regions.. Mr.Coxwell never for an instant, from leaving the earth to returning to it, took his eye off the balloon, except when otherwise engaged in its management ; indeed he was so completely occu pied that he was unable to make a single note. The balloon descended at Barking Side, near Atford, at half-past 8 o'clock—l am, dm., JAMES GLAISFEEIt. Blackheath, April 2. PORTRAITS or THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALLA—Mr. Mitchell, of Bondetreet. who has been ap pointed bookseller and publisher to the Prince of Wales km just iasued the portraits of his Royal High ✓ise and the Primers, beautifully engraved on steel, frees photographs by Mr. MayalL They are without question the most truthful and agreeable permanent portraits that have yet appeared, and having been highly approved by the Queen, are dedicated to her Majesty.

QUESN'S (Wwwwinstse) Rums VoLtnerszaiL—A short time since we announced that Captain Styan's corn pany (the 136) of this regiment had beaten the let OMB way of the Ist Surrey Regiment in a match for the honour of holding the Inland Revenue Challenge Cup, making the fifth time ia anomie. that the 13th company bed achieved this distisotice. As they are obliged to accept all challenges, naturally they have many engagemente on heed, and redo:day it fell to the lot of Captain Eaais's company of the Civil Ser vice Rifle Voluntsen (from whom the 134 k company of the Queen's first won the cup) to again enter the lista against the holders. The match took place at Worm wood Scrubs. and the conditions were—five mends at 250 yards, five at 550, and five at 650 (10 men each). Under the oircumehasees the match excited more than the usual amount of iabireit, sad the general opinion was that the eup would resat to its original possemors ; but fortune again proved favonnible to the redontable 13th conipany, sod they oyes more became the victors by three points, the scores bales 121 for the Qeese's and 118 for the Civil Ser vice, Myths scoring, the last round at second-class targets.

COUNT OP CONNOR COUNCIL A Court of Common Council was held yesterday in the Council-chamber at Guildhall ; the Right 800. the Loan MAYOR Drag• TR GOVIIIMICIIT AND TEI CORPORATION. Mr. LAWLZT gave the following natios of motion, : " That • special parliamentary committee be appointed for the purpose of watchinig the several bills now before parlia ment or that may be introduced during the present session which may in any way interfere with municipal govern ment, or the revenues, rights, or privileges of the Cltf,with power to do therein as they may think fit. and to report thereon from time to time to this court." He then said it was very important that the matter should be settled at once, and he therefore asked the leave of the court to pot his motion at once, luatead of waiting until the next court, as would be the ordinary course, as if left until then it would be too late. The court having agreed to this proposition, Mr. ',swot; in putting his motion to the court, maid he was thankful to the court for having complied with his proposition, and having a deep Jonas of the responsibility devolving upon that court, he was induced to take tbe Doane e had adopted. He had no desire whatever to pan over a com mittee which was appointed by the court for taking such stops. But the circumstances of the case were very pecu liar. There was no committee of the court in which the element of submission was not promioeut, and there was no tramming* to whom the court had simply deputed the power of watching any eooroschmeota on the rights and privileges of the City. He thought there should be • body of men who had no preconceived opinions. When the Coal, Corn and Finance and the Improvement Committees brought up a }cut report on Tuesday, they asked the sanction of the court at once to permit the Me. tropolitan Board of Works as well as the goverumeot to ride over them without a show of resistance. Mr. Deputy Bowe thought the boo. member was not addressing the court in a discreet =neer. Mr. LAWLEY said he was about to say, that when the com mittee, to whom the court had delegated that particular work, brought up their report, their action was paralysed by the declaim of the court in negativing that report. The Bemembrancer was unfortunately absent through illness during a time when the police was threatened—and there would only be a few days interval before that was Misd— eed they had no parliamentary officer and DO committee to watch the fourpevey coal dues, which were threatened by the Metropolitan Board of Works, and be thought a special committee ought to be formed to-day, with power to do what was necessary. If they valued their privileges, if they were to resist the threateoed claim of the Metropolitan Board of Works to the coal dues, or to prevent any encroachment on their privi leges, it seemed to him that the course which he bad pro posed should be adopted, and that they should have such a body as would make an oppceitroe, and if they were to be beaten, it should not be until they had shown that they did not shrink from any difficulty, whatever it might be, if they thought they could conquer it. On the other hand, if it was referred to any of their existing committees, it would meet the same fate as that which befell the joint com mittee. Mr. BIZGOOOH seconded the motion. Mr. Kowa asked the hon. member if he thought it possi ble out of that court to form a committee, none of whom had any preconceived opinions, sod he hoped that if be did out quite epee with him he should not be excluded from the list of true-hearted men. He thought it time that the corporation should endeavour to obtain a character for consiatenoy. They had departed somewhat lately from the roles of oonsistency. They bad now began an antagonism with the government and the Metropolitan Board of Works, and he hoped the mart would wall weigh and consider the situation is which they were placed. They had been play ing fast and loose with government, and now they said they would have all or noon He was afraid, if they did sot they would get none, they would lose this fourpanny tax. There was a notice ofimotion before the Metropolitan Beard of Works that they were not content with their ninepenny tax, and they wanted the fourpeany tax. _ _ Mr. Sheet, chairman of the Law akin and Parliamen tary Committee, thought that committee was quite equal to the requirements of the case. He had formed no opinion, for he was not premed on Tuesday when the report of the joint committee was discussed, sad therefore he had had oo opportunity of doing so, ruidisiace he had the honour of being chairman of that committee, he had had nothing to do with any other. The oommittes was composed of gentlemen as well calculated toiled with such an emergencyae any others, sad he thought it ought to be left to their charge. Mr. HARTRIDOI hoped the court would adopt the course proposed by Mr. Laver t 7. Yr. L. TAYLOR said it was in the power of the court to order any committee in existence to cony out certain in strectioas, and, until the decision which was agreed to by the majority of the court was revoked, it was their order ; and it we, in their power, if the court pleased, to instruct any committee to carry it out ; but it did not follow that they must ap point a fresh committee. He did not see why he should be excluded from a committee to topsider • question in all its bearinga He had always looked to the interest of the corpora- tion, and not to his own, and becoosidered it caste reflection upon this committee ordinarily appointed to inquire into law and parliamentary mattere—(" hear," and " no")—a committee that was free from any 'imputation of having pre conceived notions. ln him opinion they could appoint no committee which would be superior to the Law and Parlia mentary Committee, which consisted of sight aldermen sad • member from each ward, and also the chairman of every committee of the court. To appoint another committee he thought i would be a serious reflection upon them, and be like to see them resign to a man if such • propceitios were carried oat. He hoped it would be referred to the Law and Parliamentary Commutes, and he was sure they would do all that was necessary. Mr. Alderman and Sheriff LAWILENCZ said he was sure it was not the wish of the court to take any action which would be looked upon as an insult to the committee or to any member if he wan one of the committee. One circum- be taken into cnosideretion, in;cl7thiii;i7s for what purpose was the Parlismeotary Committee con stituted; and secondly, whether or nut the circumstances were of such a character as to require calm consideration and the greatest care in the selection of a special committee. But it seemed to him that any one who looked at the exist ing committee, sad for what It was firmed, would my that that was s committee such as should be selected for the purpose required on the present occasion, and he hoped the motion would be carried. Mr. ALIOTT thought it should not be carried. There was • committee existing whose speekil duty it w•s to look after parliamentary lumina; and in looking down the u•mms be did not think there could ben committee that could oom mend itself more to the confidence of the court. Mr. BISOOUGH thought the court would not be going out of their usual course by selecting a special committee, as they had dome in 18t6 under similar cucumstanoes. • . Mr. Deputy HARRISON goosed as an amendment that it should be referred to the Law and Parliamentary Com mittee. He thought, with Mr. Taylor, that it would reflect seriously upon the character of that committee if a special committee were appointed. Mr. Burs seconded the smeodment. Mr. finom)saa favoured the motion of Mr. Lawley. Mr. FRY hoped the motion would not be carried, and that it would be referred to the existing committee, who, he was sure, could do the work as well, if not better, than any other, and he hoped it would be referred to that committee. Some further discussion took place, and upon a division it was ultimately referred to the L►w and Parliamentary Com mittee, instead of toe special committee. Yr. F. K. GLOVIIIR pressated a petition, signed by a bugs number of the inhabitants of Ludgate-street and vicinity, prey's( that the court would be pleased to take such steps as might be considered most advisable in order to prevent the formation of the proposed viaduct across Ludgate-hill by the Loodos, Chatham and Dover Railway Company. Upon the motion of Mr. GLOVER it was referred to the Improvement Committee to take the necessary steps in the smatter. _ _ Borne other petitioes having been disposed of and referred to different commoners, the court adjourned. THE CITY TIRMINVB or THR NORTH LONDON RAILWAY IN LivaarooL-eTlLLlCT.—Yeaterday • number of workmen were engaged in demolishing the houses oa the west sod north aides of Broadstreet-buildiogs, in order to clear the site for the City Terminus of the North London Railway. The position of the intended terminus is on the north side of Liverpool-street, nearly midway between Bishopeptestreet and the Ophthalmia Hospital in Blom field-street, and fronting the end of New Brood-street, the distance from the Bank of England, Mansion-house, and Royal Exchange, being only about two minutes' walk. The houses in Foster-street, Peter-street, 3 / 4 43., about eighty in number, along the route, which is northward between Rishopegate-street, ShoMitch, sad Finsbury, are in the course of removal, while great exertions are evidently being made to dear the ground which hat been opened between Hispland-road sad Niohol-ermare, and prepare it for the eornmencensent of the railway work.. The property through which this line is being carried consists mostly of bowies in habited by the poorer claws. Some delay of the South Western trains took place at Bashigatokeyeeterday, in consequence of the great tradition the Great Western line between Reading and that station. SPORTING INTBLLIGENOS. TATTIERSALI/13.—Twastay. The attendance this oftener= for an " off day," wu shove the avenge, which is to be accounted for chiefly from the fact of there being no counter attraction elsewhere, and that the very orthodox tendencies of members would hardly deter them from meeting as usual to pursue their avocados during the only "blank " week of the season.

The scrip of the new Confederate Loan was again very heavy yesterday, and gradually declined, closing at 2 } to 2 dial- Some of the sales were said to be attributable to an impression that Mr. John B. Spence, merchant, of Liverpool, who hu just stopped payment, is identified with the financial agent of the Confederate government. This, how ever is not the case. Mr. John B. Spence, who has been fifteen years in business, and is well known, is a brother of Mr. James Spence, the Con federate agent, but is entirely unconnected with him in business. The scrip of the Italian Loan has risen to HI to 1; prem. Danish was quoted to prem. The accompanying letter from the Under Secre tary of State for Foreign Affairs materially affects the interests of the Poyaisian Land and Bondhold ers, as well as those claimants under the Black River Land Grant (Mosquito).

Yesterday afternoon Mr. Thomas Hills, the carouse for Chatham, opened an inquiry into the circum stances connected with the death of Alfred James Holden, who was murdered by his father in a room near Brompton Barracks, under the eircurostiorms already detailed. The jury, having been sworn, proceeded to view the body, which lay in the same room in which the murder took place. The deemed was a remarkably fine child, and from the ap pearances on the body there was little doubt that the at. tack by the accused must have been most determined and mows. There were two wounds in the throat, one of which was, in reality, mused by a series of stabs, anyone of which was of itself suffleient to have caused death. On the return of the jury the following evidence was taken : Catherine Downie, the wife of a tailor, deposed that she resided next door to the accused Alfred Holden, who was • gunner in the Royal Artillery. Shortly after seven o'clock yesterday morning the mother of the deceased seat for witness to come to ber room, and on going in she maw the accused standing by the bed, and the mother of deemed crying and wringing her hands. Witneas asked what was the matter, when the mother exclaimed that her baby was dead, adding that her husband had stabbed it while she was away fetching him a pint of beer. The husband, who was standing by, said, " Yes, I killed it," and afterwards added, " I want to be hung, and do not wish to leave a burden to my wife, no that she may be able to do for her self." The deceased was lying on the bed in • pool of blood. John Downie, the husband of the last witness, said, from what his wife told him, he went into the room wearied by Holden and his wife, and saw the deceased lying on the bed. Life was quite extinct. There was a quantity of blood about the deceased, and two wounds on the neck. On asking the father if it was a fart that he had killed the child, he replied, " Yes, John, I am guilty. I know I shell be hung, and I want to leave no burden on my wife." Witness saw a knife covered with blood in the utensil. (The knife was here produced and identified by the witness. It was a large clasp knife, and was covered with blood.) The witness motioned to state that Holden did Dot appear to be under the effect of drink, and seemed perfectly to understand all be was saying. By the Coroner—He had heard no disturbance between Holden and his wife that night. They awe lived toge ther very comfortably, and were in fact • loving semple. Mr. Henry Weeks., surgeon, deposed to bin called Ia to me the body of the deceased at about 8 o'clock maculae. The dammed was lying on the bed jai= Oa making au examination of the bode, the whams hands wound four inches long on the right aide of the seek, pirallei with the collar boo& There was also another emend in the middle lower part of the throat, just above the tressileras, which was very deep, and extended down into the throat, This wound was caused by • stab. On making • posemeetan examination of the body he found that the instrument which inflicted the stakhad divided the arch of the aorta ; another movement of the instrument had peoetrated the right cavity of the chest, and nearly cut off the top of the right lung ; a third movement of the knife had passed into the cavity of the pericardium. The wounds described were canoed by three distinct stabs, and any one would have mimed instant death. The knife produced exactly fitted the wounds= the body. Corporal John lintherbrd, Royal Artillery, said on re trey's% information of the murder he went with an escort of men to apprehend the accused. On going into the room be saw lloldeu standing in the middle, and his wife holding the deceased in her Up. Before witness spoke Bottles pointed to the child, and exclaimed "I did it." Witness asked him his reason for killing his child, when he replied, " 1 want to get rid of the world." The witness then said in that case be might have made away with himself, when he remarked, "If hadmarked, killed myself I should have left my wife with • child to keep, whereas, as I have killed the child, I shall be bung, and my wife will only have herself to keep." Witness then removed him to the guard-room. By the Coroner—Holden did not appear to be drunk thee, but the witness knew he had been drunk the previous night. The accused bad been employed as cook to the sergeants? mess but on the previous day bad been ordered to return to his duty. On time way to the police.station he said to witness that he had a grievance against one of the sergeants for his being removed from the mem, and that had induced him to take the life of his child. The knife shown to the jury was Holden's regimental knife. When at the police station witness saw blood on the right hand of the accused. By the jury—Holden was always considered • quiet, in offensive man, and coed the best conducted in his battery. He had been a teetotaller for six months, bat the day be fore the occurrence had again taken to drinking. Police-constable George Turner, 160, said he went to take the accused into custody in the guardroom, and on seeing him he said, "Do you want me r On their way to the station-house, the accused said, " I killed the child. I did it through a serpent that has tried to do me all the harm be could." Witness then cautioned him as to what he was saying, when he remarked, " It's all right, I know I shall be bum." On taking him into his room, Holden showed how he cut hie child's throat, and on seeing the knife said, " That is the knife I did it with, it has my name on it, and I took it out of that box, while I sent my wife out fora pint of beer." By the jury —The accused seemed to know what he was saying, and was quite sober. Sergeant .7111111411 David, Royal Artillery, said he was the caterer to the sergeants' mess, of which Holden had been cook for about three years. On Sunday last the witness spoke to him about making haste to get up dinner, on which he said if be did sot snit he would return to his duty. That was all that panted. On the following day Holden had been drinking, end the witness told him about it, and advised him to go home. Next day he took his things and left the mesa. All the sergeants were very fond of him. ; He bore a very good character, and was strictly honest. The witness was aware that his brother bad Lung himself, and Hoiden often remarked, apparently jocularly, that he knew he should die the same death. The Coroner said that was the whole of the evidence he had to lay before the jury, and the case was so clear that he thought there was hardly any necessity for him to make any observations on it. The jury at once returned a verdict of "Wilful murder " i against Alfred Holden, and the Coroner made out his war . rant for his committal to Maidstone gaol.
