packet of powder to a gentleman there. When she wait back she found two tumblers on the washstand. There was usually only one there. The children had been at the country house of Mr. and Mrs. Vyse, and the boy had come to town that morning, and the other two on the day previous. The baby, which was a year and adult old, was still in the country. On being crave-examined the witness s►id the two chil dren were not at school. She had been to Surbiton, and Mrs. Vyse attended to the children, and always appeared very atlectionate and attentive to them. She dreaed and undressed them at Ludgate-hill, and took a deal of pains with their hair, of which she wu very proud. They were very food of her. She did not see Mrs. Wyse kiss the chil dren after dinner. m Mr. F. Marshall said—l am an assistant at Mr. Keating's. 1 remember the last witness coming to par chase the packetuf powders in the afternoon, I bad tossed out for a shilling packet, and she waited while it was being fetched. Mir Sarah Saunders said—The prisoner is my sister. I remember going with the housemaid to her room on that afternoon, and the door being forced open. When I spoke to my sister she made a motion to the wall towards the children's room. I remember my sister handing me • letter. The letter was not open, and I did not open it uutilthe evening. I did not read it, bat merely .icaoned it over. I have destroyed that latter. I did so of my own accord, and not at the suggestion of any one else. I destroyed it two or three days afterwards, and I cannot recollect anything of its contents. I do not remember one word of what was in this letter. It was a very short one. I declare I have not the least recollection of the contents of that letter. I destroyed it before I had been to the coroner's inquest. I took some papers out of my sister's pocket in the afternoon. The, were the papers that had contained the Battles Vermin Powder, and they were all empty. My sister did not tell me why she had brought the children to town on the Wednesday. Crose.examined—My sister was usually at the shop at Ludgate-hill, and superintended the bushier. She was forewoman when Mr. Vyse married her. I was also em ployed in the establishment, and I and my sister were always on the most affectionate terms. (Here the witness was a good deal affected.) Mrs. Vyse was a very food mother to all her children. I remember a child dying in November, IMO. This child was about nine or ten months old, and it died of diphtheria at &white& The illness was not considered serious by the servants there, and they omitted to inform the prisoner of it, and she always fancied she could have saved its life if she had been informed earlier of the Maws. This child remained unburied foraconaiderable time, owing to the vault being flooded. I have noticed • marked difference in my sister's conduct since that time. She frequently had fits of despondency ► and was sometime. violent without any apparent cause. fltave heard my sister speak of these chil dren in terms of very great affection, and she took very great pride in them. Mr. yea was engaged in the out-door por tion of the business. By Mr. Chambers—The prisoner was always considered a good woman of business, and this opinion was entertained of her up to the time of this dreadful occurrence. About twenty young ladies were employed in the establishment. Yrs Vyse used to serve in the shop, and I assisted her. Sarah Thompson said—l was cook in the establishment of Mr. and Mrs. Vyse, and I prepared thedintieron the 22nd of May. It was cold roast beef and rice pudding. I made the pudding myself. There was no Battle's Vermin Powder in the kitchen, and I put nothing in the pudding bat the usual ingredients. The deceased children appeared to be in their usual state of health when they were having their dinner. In the nursery I heard Alice ask the prisoner where she had been, and she replied to St. Paul's-church yard, and she then kissed her. This was about half-peat one o'clock. The whole of the family and the servants par took of the same dinner. I saw the children at dinner about two o'clock, and I did not see them again until they were in the bedroom. There were rats and mice in the house, and they destroyed the ceiling in one of the rooms. Elizabeth Harrison said—l am female searcher at the Fleetatrost polbe-station, and I went to attend urea the deceased at her residence about 10 o'clock at night on the Wed of May. She was in bed. I remained with her until 10 o'clock on the following day. During the night she made • incasing noise, and was very restless, but I did not speak to her at all. In the morning Mrs. Vyse told the housemaid that she wished to speak to Smith the porter, and Miss Saun ders inquired whether she could not deliver the message to him. Mrs. Vyse said " No," and at that moment Smith cults in. When the prisoner saw him, she pat out bar heed to him to shake hands with him, and they shook hands, and both appeared very grieved arid excited. Vyse then said, 'Alt, Smith, Mary has been the whole and sole cause of this." Smith replied, "Keep yourself quiet, ma'am, and if I could lay my life down, or fi ve thousand live., to ratan what you did yesterd ay, I would do so." The pri soner then maid. "It is done,sod it cannot be undone." About half.paat 4 o'clock oe the Friday morning, the prisoner asked if her dear children had been attended to. No an swer was made to her at first, and she repeated the ques tion, and I then said they had not, as it was not usual to do so until after the coroner's inquest. Cross-examined—Mrs. Vyse said what I have elated quite distinctly. The other nurse was not present when she said the words. Smith was present, but Miss Saunders hal left the room. Miss Saunders was here recalled, and in answer to a question put by Serjeant Ballantine, she said there waa no person named Mary in the establishment, except the cook, and she had never heard any other " Mary " mentioned. Serjeant &Wanting—Rad the prisoner ever complained of the cook, or any other Mary! Witness—Never. William Smith said—l was messenger and porter in Mr. Vyse's service, l and had been employed by him an d hi s father for eight and twenty years. I remamber being sent for on the Friday morning. I will say all that I remem ber to have taken place. I took hold of Mrs. Aryee's hend,and she widsomething like, " What will they do . or " What will be do!" She spoke in a sort of guttural tone, and I could hardly distinguish what she said. I mode her no answer to my recol lection. I had been drinking that night, and was very much distressed also. I cannot recollect who came to tell me that I was wanted or what caused me to go into the room. By Serjeant Bellantine—l only saw the prisoner on this one occasion after the occurrence. I was nearer to the pri soner than anyone else. I bad been up all night and had been drinking more than usual, and was very much dis tressed. Inspector Howard produced the papers containing the powders that were found in the prisoner's possession. Dr. Edward Payne said—l am a physician, and I happened accidentally to be at Mr. Eeatiees in the afternoon of the ?Ind of May, and in cousemeece of what I heard there I went to the prisoner's house. She was dressed and lean- Mg over the wash-hand stand, and I examined her throat before Mr. Savory came. I discovered some blood that in terfered with her breathing and I removed 11, and with the assistance of Mr. Savory dressed the wound in the neck. It was a wound such as could have been inflicted by the razor produced, but it was nut deep enough, or in the right place, to he a fatal woond. In consequence of something that was said about the children, I asked the prisoner what it was they had had, and, with • good deal of difficulty, she replied, Battle's Vermin Powder, 'or " Battle's Vermin Killer." I think that Mr. Savory was present when she said this, and he and I attended upon her, and inconsequence of her state we considered it advisable that Oho should gpmain in her own house. She seemed excited at the idea that a pergola from the police-station was is the room, and to ease her mind and wilt her recovery we directed that Mrs. Harrison should be sent away, and an ordinary nurse from the hos pital attended in her plaice. Crosier/mined—At the present time the prisoner speaks very inarticulately , and can only b e u n d ers t oo d w i t h very greet difficulty. The prisoner and her husband were entire strangers to me until this transaction. I saw the children in the bed, and my impression is that they were carefully placed there after they were dead. I should infer if this rend been .lone be the person who had destroyed them that she was not in her right senses. The brain of women at a certain period is li a bl e to be very much excited. BY Mr. C'hambers—l should think that if a sane person osmnitted such a deed as thia, the sight would have been reeoliies that bu would be tempted to run away rather "me to atop and dw e ll upon it and place the bodies in the bed is the position these bodies were found. l . valence was then adduced to show that the deaths of the children were occasioned by strychnine, and that the Battle's vermin powder contained a considerable quantity of that Pare. And this closed the mae for the prosecution. Sergeant hollantine then addressed the jury in a d te " el oquent speech for the prisoner, and said that the efence he should endeavour to establish was that she was 10000 at the time she committed the dreadful acts that were the subject of inquiry. He said that he should call witoesses who would prove that both ro?lernal and paternal relatives of the prisoner were afflicted with insanity, and medial evidence to show that in their opinion the prisoner at the time she committed the alleged offrece wan not is such a state of mind as to render bar responsible fur the consequences. [The trial was proceeding when our report left.] NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Crompton.) THE HENDON MURDER. This morning, upon his lordship taking his seat in this court. Jo mei La , rren re. 29, labourer. was indicted for the wilful murder of Anne Harsh Con, at Hendon, on the 29th of Much. He was likewise charged upon the careeer's Gilfard prosecuted, and Mr. Sleigh and Mr. Williams defended. The prisoner, who pleaded not guilty, remained seated ilorin g the whole of the trial, awl seemed in great pale, his face Presenting • most fearfully disfigured appearame. The case, as stated by the learned counsel, and oor- Mborated by the witnesses, was that the prisoner, who hi a labouring man, lived at Mtll.hill, Hendon, and the de emed also lived there with her mother. The prisoner was hying his addressee to her, and bad done so for some time ; and about the period of this occurrence be entertained some feelings of jealouny towards the deceased. For about a weal preceding the 29th, the prisoner had lodged in the been THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY with deceased and her mother. Upon the morning of the 29th, about 6 in the morning, the prisoner, as usual, called the deceased as he went to his work, and also said to Mrs. Bethel, the decreed's mother, "good morning." Shortly after this Mrs. Bethel heard a loud noise, and she got up, but was unable to get out of the room. She then raised an alarm from the window, and a l►bouring man, named Sheller, who was passing, entered the kitchen of Mrs. Bethel's house, and there saw the deceased girl lying upon her back with a wound in her throat. Some of the neighbours came in and raised her upon the sofa, shortly after which she died. A double gun, freshly discharged. was found standing against the copper. The prisoner was then found to have shot himself in the head, causing a fearfully lacerated wound, from the effect, of which he was for some time in a dangerous state in the hospital. [The trial was proceeding when we went to prom.] IMPERIAL P. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIS DAY.) The Swats took the chair at 12 o'clock. CLERGY RELIEF BILL Mr. BOTlVEltilhWilig moved the third reading of this Sir L. PALK moved that it be read • third time that day three mouths. The bill was a most objectionable one, and even if it were read • third time he did not think there was any _chance of its passing into a law, but they were not jus tified in trusting to the House of Lords to correct the legislative en-ore of the House of Commons. (Hear.) It laid down the monstrous proposition that the House of Commons should have the power to release priests from that church which they had by the most solemn oaths and obligations bound themselves to genre—a power never as sumed by the Pope of Rome in the most intolerant days of papal domination. To do away with oaths altogether was another matter, but while the Prayer-book required them to he taken as a co ndition for orders they would not be justified in paging a measure to absolve from the obligations those oaths imposed those who after due deliberation had taken than. Then what was even more objectionable was the practice of the bill, for it left it free to those who were under its provisions divested of the priestly character to teach heresy and schism. The house had not yet prouounced any opinion upon it. Mr. LYGON seconded the amendment. Lord HENLEY hoped the house, having passed the bill through its previous stages, would not refuse its assent to this, the hut one. The bill only relieved those who dis sented from the doctrines of the church of England. These were a very small number of the church, and therefore the bill went but a very little way. He should have been glad had it gone further. There were those who, having taken orders, found themselves unfitted for clerical duties, either those of preaching or visiting the poor ; it would be better for the church, as well so for such persons, if they were per mitted to lay down their orders and betake themselves to some other profession in which they could be usefaL There were those who felt from the life led they were unfitted for the church—these, too, ought to be allowed to subside into the laity. Again, there was the case of persons, as younger sons, who took orders as a means of living—such persons might succeed by death of an elder brother or other wise to competence, and might very naturally desire to turn their abilities into some other useful channel than the church, and if so they ought to be allowed to do so. It might be said that they might become magistrates, but many thought that the duties of a magistrate were incompatible with those of a clergyman, and one lord lieutenant objected to appoint clergy men as magistrates. But there were other positions of usefulness which persons of the deesiption referred to might fill with advantage to themselves and the country. There was one clause which he thoughtopeeto objection; it was that which provided that the bishop should pronounce la stest* against them. It was very likely that persons who so de sidered to throw off holy orders would not much care about any sentence which the bishop could pronounce,to but he objected this power being p l aced in the hands of the bishop. He also objected to the prohibition the bill imposed upon persons so denuded of holy orders sitting in that house, ootindering that they should, on being restored to the laity, be free to all the rights sod privileges of laymen. Mr. BOUYERIE regretted that the opposition should have been reserved for this its last stage of the bilL Unless some such principle was adopted, the clergy of the Church of England were denied all rights of conscience. ft often happened that m en t oo k orders in the church fully convinced of the truth of its doctrines, but afterwards conscientiously changed their opinions. Was there any sense in compelling such men to preach from the pulpit doctrines from which they dissented? Or was a man who entertained doctrines which the church called heresy, like Mr. Heath, to be deprived of hie ministry and at the same time debarred from engaging himself in any other occupation, and thus condemned to penury during his life! Was a law which left men whose only crime was that they openly declared the doctrines they conscientiously believed in that position which could be consisteetly maintained? If a clergyman turned from the church and became& Roman catholic priest there was a special act of parliament exempting him from all penalties on account of secession—could they then consist ently continue those penalties against persons who seceded oe points of doctrine, but still elected to remain protes tant' ? He knew of numerous cases in which the law ope rated most severely against men who feeling they could not conscientiously discharge the duties of clergymen retired from that position, and sought to enter the ter, or some other occupation. There was the case of Mr. Baptist Noel, who seceded some time ago from the church upon some doctrinal points, and be came a dissenting minister. As the law now stood that gentleman might be at aoy moment proceeded against, and cast into prison —and that not at the instance of the bishop (for he believed that no bishop would think of proceeding against him for preaching the Bible)—but any person might put the powers of the Ecclesiastical Law in force in the name of the bishop, and Mr. Noel would be liable to be imprisoned for six mouths unless he consented to be silent for ever. The bill did not touch the qucation of orders, as the honourable member opposite supposed, it merely provided that the temporal authority of the state should no longer be brought into requisition to enforce obligations upon men which they censcieutiously repudiated. He differed from the hon. gentleman as to the chances of the bill succeeding in another place. From what he (Mr. Bouvene) had heard, he believed that if it were read a third time by the House of Commons it had • very good chance of being passed in another place, where SOON of the highest authorities in the church—the Bishop of Exeter amongst them—had pro pounced opinions in favour of such a relaxation of the ex isting law. _ Mi. ROEBUCK supported the bill. He could see nothing in the imposition of a bishop's band on a young man which should afterwards prevent him from changing any of his religious opinions. Such a state of things would only bring down ridicule on the church. Sir G. GREY thought that clergymen who changed their opinions ought not to remain under the preseat liability. The valid objections to the bill had in his opinion been re moved by the committee, and he thought the house would not act wisely in rejecting it on the third reading. After a few words from Mr. 1). Carrara, in opposition to the bill, _ - The house divided. For the the third reading Against it The bill was therefore lost. The numbers were received with loud cheers from the opposition. CHURCH RATES COMMUTATION BILL. Mr. NEWDEGATZ, in moving the second reading of this bill, said—What he now asked of the house was simply to allow the bill to be referred to a select com mittee, in order that it might hereafter receive gene ral assent. His proposal was mainly to declare all personal liability null, and to revert to the ancient source of tho maintenance of the services and fibrins of the church by enacting that that portion of the gross produce of real property which was never included in the rent payable tr the lac should be reserved for the benefit of the church.

Groves and Co. : It is with much gratification that we are enabled to report favourably of the present condition of the vines in France and Germany. The information received from our cor respondents in tho several wine districts is most encouraging. The vines generally throughout France and Germany are in fine condition, the nether, although as ungenial there as it has been here, has not yet done material damage tothem, and the injury reported to have been done by the frost is in many instances insignificant, and to all, as usual, greatly exaggerated. Of course it is not our wish to encourage hopes of a good and abundant vintage which a continuance of bad weather may entirely dissipate. It will not there- fore do to discount the future ; but, we may state as • fact, that should no unforeseen circumstances occur the vintage of 1862 will be more favourable than it has bean for some years past. This desirable state of a ff airs has had some induence upon holden on the other side, and, except for old and high classed wince, purchases can sow be made on easier terms than they could a few months ago.
