Every one thought that Narearx would not long remain out of power, but, as will be emu by a despatch from Madrid of the 23rd instant, the fall of the general is said to be consummated. _ _ . . Genet tl C:oonard is a nullity, and so are the whole of the ministry. General Balboa was once political cbiefof Madrid. Well informed persons have reason to believe that there is an intrigue at the bottom of this for bringing Mon , p:nsier to the throne, with the consent of Queen Isabella, who wishes to travel without her husband, and who would be endowed, like her mother Christine, with a eufficient sum fn. her pleasures. The news from Madrid, and that from Russia, of supposed ar maments and increasing levies, caused a great heavi ness at the Bourse. The Tures-Russian question was the a subject of discussion at a council of ministers held to-dy. A journal this morning pretends that M. de Per aigny's mission to Vienna was for the purpose of ob taming from Austria that the remains of the Duke of lteichstadt, tie young son of the emperor, should be translated to Paris ; but thin are many who doubt this, and think that the object of M. de Ps rsigny was to sound the absolutist courts as to the manner in which they would view an imperial restoration. Rumour says that M. de Persigny has been unsuccessful ; bet want of success_ in the latter or in the former subject is given as the result. In the Assembly to-day the debate commenced on Creton's proposal relative to the exiled Bourbons. The accused in the affair of Strasbourg have been acquitted, and government have reason to think that the Raw result will take place in the affair of the amused of Versailles. Tor Aserarne.

LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 25, 1849. Pany had argued that it was not intesded by the 7th and &hot Victoria to take away aiding rights ; bat the answer to that WY, that the staiso of this party was altered. All the privileges which this legislation had in tended to reserve were personal ; but ate privilege of being tried by a jary do usedietato was not of that nature, and the party having ceased to be an slims, bad ceased to bare that privilege. It was not necessary to take away the privilege by express words; the prisoner leaving ceased .to be an alien, tke inquest was not between the sovereign and an alien. The Wel moat therefore proceed. Mr. Ballasting) them intimated his desire to have a plea of demurrer entered recording his objection; and, after some discussion between the learned Judges and counsel, the point raised was reserved, id, Ballasting and the Attorney-pane. ray Joining in a demurrer, the elect of which will be that, if the female prisoner is convicted, it will afterwards be open to her to appeal either to the Criminal Court of Error or to the House of Lords. The jury were swots, sad the indictment having bees read to dna, The Attorney-Gmera me to open the case. H. sa:d the groat importance of this caw, and the excitement in the public mind, had induced him to appear there to conduct the prosecution, with a view to elicit the truth. In a charge of this serious nature it was most important for the jury to dismiss from their minds everything which they had hosed, %ad to confine their attention strictly to the evident*. He should abeain as much as passible from making any unnecessuy observations. The prisoners at the bar were George Frederick Manning, who Came from Somereetabire, and who was lately a guard on the Oreat Western Railway, and Maria, his wife, who was keenly at the Duchess of Sutherland's, and was married to the male prisoner. The murdered man was formerly a gamer in the docks. On Thum day the 9th of August he left his house. About a quarter before 5 o'clock in the afternoon he was men by two friends on London-bridge, to whom be showed a letter of invitation Ito dinner, signed "Maria." A little later be was again seen, and that was the last time he was seen alive. On the 13th rite prisoners left their home. Oa the 14th the landlord four.d it namempied, and on the 17th the police found the body of O'Connor on the premiers. Thetas' ned comae' then described the manner and c3ndition in which the body was found. The fact of the finding of the body in the boss. was not conclusive evidence of the guilt of either of the prison re; but there could be no doubt that O'Connor was, between the 9:h and the 14th, murdered on the premises; and is was no violent presumption to conclude that one or other, or both of the prisoners, committed the dreadful act. When the jury had heard the evider.ce, he believed they would be of opinion that the murder of O'Connor was the result of a long end deep-laid schema of the prisoners. As regarded the legal question, if, on the resat, they should be of opinion that Maria Manning's was the hand that struck the blow, and that the husband only aided and abetted, or that both were present while some third party committed the murder, they must both be held to have been guilty. If either com mitted the vet, and the other was present abetting, the verdict must be given against both. In cases of this description it was generally impossible to o'Asin anything but circumstantial evidence. In the 11th and 1213 c. 46, Ist sec., it was enacted that these who were _ . . . . memories before the Let to murder ehould be indicted, treated, and punished, al principals; and, therefore, it was immaterial which of the prisoners committed the deed. There is only one other legal proposition to which he would advert. In some cases the low exempted married women from con sideration; bat this rule did Lot split) , to cues which were termed main in se, and which were abhorrent to nature. Sa that in this case the f. male prisoner could not successfully plead the fact of her being a married woman, or that she acted under coercion. It might be alleged that the woman was only an accessory after the fact. Site was not so charged. Such a charge would not be sanctioned by this law, and the evidence in this case would not bear out that view. Now the question won, was the act done by both of the prisoners, or by either in the presence of the other. The nature of the intimacy between the Kennings and O'Connor tended to throw light on that question. The learned counsel then entered into the origin of the intimacy. Soon after the Kennings went to Miner-place a young gentleman named Massey, a medical student, went to lodge with them. Whilst he was staying with them Manning stated in his presence that O'Connor was a man of considerable property; questioned Wm with regard to the effect of laudanum in stupifying a mean and finally asked him what he thought would be the fate in another world of a man who had committed murder. Some time after, the prisoners expre,sei a desire that Massey should leave their house, alleging that they wanted to go into the country ; and, in consequence of this representation, he did leave on the 28th of July. The learned canuel then deteribed the purchasing of a blithe' of lime and of a crow-bar, with regard to which Mannine, on meeting the man who carried it home, complained of its not being wrspped up. The crow-bar was deli eared to Mrs. Manning, who complained that the plies charged was more than had been bargained for. On the Bth of August Mrs. Manning bought the shovel, and, en the same day wrote a letter to O'Connor giving the imitation referred to. On the evening of the same day O'Connor called with a friend at Mannirg's, and Mrs. Manning expressed her . . enrprise at his not having come to dinner. H. replied that he had not received the letter. O'Connor remained there with his friead until a late hour. Or the 9:h O'Connor went to the Docks, and alter being seen in the evening of that day, was never after seen alive. On the evening of the 9th, Thursday, Mn. Manning went to O'Connor's lodgings, and she went to them a seoand time on the succeeding day. On the 11th she hind • pin' to clean. On the 20th Manning sold to a broker, .20 Eastern Counties shares in the name of O'Connor. The absence of O'Connor from his home creating suspicion, the same person who bad last seen him alive called at Manning's, and inquired if be had called there cn the 9:b. The reply was that he bad not, and Mrs. Manning stated that she had been to his lodgings to ascertain why he had not come to her house to dine. Oa the following Monday Manning went to a brokerby the name of Bainbridge, to whom he sold hit fur niture, 'eking the man to remove it at 5 the next morning . He stayed for some time at the broker's, and about 5 o'clock went to his own house to look for his wife. When he arrived he was told that his wife had left. About an hour before Mrs. Manning hail left in a cab, taking with her some boxes. She afterwards called at the South-Eastern station and deposited with the clerk some boxes ; and she then proceeded to the North.We.tern station She proceeded to Edinburgh, and took lodgings there under the name of Smith. The learned counsel then detailed the circumstances connected with the apprehension of the female prisoner, and the property found upon hrr. He then traced the departure of Manning from London oa the 15th. and stated his subsequent apprehension at Jersey. When apprehended, Manning, who made no resist ance, stated that his wife had committed the act, saying that as O'Connor was going down stairs she put her arm round his neck and shot him. There could be no ques tion that O'Connor was murdered. The only question was whether it was done by either "r both of the prisoners. These various acts and circumstances were those from which the jury would have to draw their conclusion ; and he was sure they would do so calmly, patiently, and honestly, dismissing from their minds everything which they had previously heard, and applying them solely and impartially to the evi dence which would be addueed. Henry Berns was then called, and examined by Mr. Clerkson.—Was a policeman. In consequence of informa tion which he had received he went, with a man named Burton, to 3, Kinver-place, Bermondsey, en Friday, the 17th of August. The house was empty. Examined and searched it. His brother constable Barton unlocked the house door and went into the back kitchen. A damp mark between the edges of two of the flag-atones attracted his attention. Removed the stones. Found some mortar andel them, and then some earth. The stone appeared to have been recently I removed. On getting about twelve bathes down, discovered the to of a man, and at about 18 inches, the loins. The body was lying on the belly, and the legs were drawn up on the haunches, and tied with strong cords. The body was quite naked. On proceeding to name move earth we found the entire body. The body was embedded in slack lime. Mr. Lockwood, a nerves, then came in, and removed a est of false teeth. The head was lower than the other part of the body. The latter was then removed from the hole to the front kitchen, and examined by Mr. Lockwood and another surgeon. A person named Flynn also came. The body remained In the house on the night of the 17th and on the 18th. Oa eke same day, the 17th, watt to O'Connor's residence at Greenwood-street, and found the lock of a box which had boss forced, It con- Waal No limey. la this box then was a sort of each-b.:, which was imam. Cross-examined by Mr. Bedfast Wilkins—The &Retools were about three feet long by two feet wide. The soil !cloy wu wet. Witness was now well acquainted with the pre. m'aes. On inhering the house by front door the first room was the front parlour. The front kitchen was under the front parlour, the back one under the bark parlour. Could not say whether or not persons could be heard speaking in the adjoining houses. There was a good deal of noise. Re-examined by the Attorney-OeneraL—ln removing the stones, the mow-bar and the shovel were both used. Cross-examined by Mr. Bsllantine.—Could easily have removed the flag -stones himself. _ James Burton, the pollas-cfflear referred to ty the last witness, examined by fur. Bodkin.—The size of the opening was about live feet long by two broad, and between two and three feet deep. The things had all been moved from the house. Cress-examined by Mr. Serjeant Wilkies.—Went to the house first on the 14th, accompanied by Mr. Keating and two ether persons. On that occasion fou.td 28 pieces of clean linen. There were also some trunks in the noun. There was a shovel in the back kitchen. Them were some shrubs growing in the garden. Saw some scarlet runners there ti. d up with strings. Samuel Lockwood, examined by Mr. Cierk.—Was a sur geon, residing at Windsor-terrace, Newington. Went to Manning 's house in Minmr-place, on the 17th August. Found there the eonetablea Barnes and Burton. On wit- ness's entering the back kitchen saw Barnes there. A pot- I thin of the feet of a body was visible. Saw the body entirely uncovered, and perceived that it was tied. The legs were bent I ark to the haunches and tied down in that position. Before the body wee removed from the hole be took from the mouth a set of false teeth. It was taken to the front kitchen. ;Mr. Iloadley, another surgeon, cut the cords. On extinioing the head, witness perceived a small protuberance over the right eye, which was bard and moveable, and witness tut down upon it, and found a pistol bullet inside. [The bullet was then produced.] In the skull there was so opening corresponding to the bullet; it was in the frontal bone. It did not come 'through the in!egnments. In the back part of the skull also there were extensive fractures. Could not trace the C.WITS• of the bullet, on account of the extensive fractures and the decomposition of the frame. Button pieces of bone had been removed. There were some wounds on the head, such as might have been prc duced by the end of a crowbar, or by a chisel. By the Lord Chief Baron—These were contused wounds also. Mr. Seejeant Wilkins objected to the ques':f.n which had elicited the last reply to counsel. On the examination being resumed, the witness said—He had no doubt but that one wound from a bullet would cause death.

CHANGE OF MLNISTRY.—F.k LL OF NARVAEZ. The following lettere, from our corresp:ndent at Madrid, give notice of this surprising change : MADRID, Orr. 19, 1849. Last night the opera that was to be performed in the little theatre the young queen has had made in the palace was delayed one hour. Surmise was active. i Was it love or poli ca that kept the queen from the enjoymett of sweet sounds? This mo'ning it was known that both had their share, Bedmsr, the hand some muquis whom Narvaez once exiled, found means to get into the queen's presence, and paint to her in glowing colours the exhausted state of the treasury— the starving employis cf the very palms. 'lhr queen dismissed the whole ministry, and it is said laughed heartily when Horvath blustered. Count Clonard, an artillery general, has been ordered to k rm a ministry. An intrigue between Queen Christina end the Duke of Montpensier is spoken of. Tte duke set out for Marlys, in Andalos a,and pretending a di-ire to vi-it the coast, set out thence for Valence, where he was to arrive in January. Zhao» be was to go to Cuenca (near Madrid), wtete Christina was to come to visit , her daughter. Does this round-about scheme have reference to a change of qr.centi? All who know the ambition of Montpcniae and the pride of the ir fonts, believe them capable of aspiring to hers ster's rights. The ministers, in parsing through the streets to-day, told all their friends that they had been dismissed. Tao population is in a s ate of great exc t Hunt; conjectures of all sorts are rife; some say that it is the beginning of absolute government, whilst others see in it the dawn of a better day for lib rty.

Oa Saturday, Aug. 4, a special meeting of the Anti-Convict Association assembled at the Town house, in very large numbers, at two o'clock in the afternoon. A letter was then read by the chairman, of which the following is a copy : Cocos' mt.-orrics,Aug. 4, 1849.—8ir,—1 =directed by his excellency the governor to Inform you that he has Just re ceived from Earl Grey the duplicate of a despatch (not yet received in original) in reply to a memorial from the fru blurts of Graham's Town, arinst the introduction of con victs into the colony. The Graham's Town memorial was transmitted by his excellency e n the 20th January last, that of the inhabitants of Cape Town on the 19th December, 1848; bat r Ear Grey has desired that the present despatch should be communicated to all those who take an interest in the subject, he excellency has desired me to enclose a copy for the information of the Cape Town petitioner. I have the honour to be, sir, &c., JOHN MONTAOI:. - - Received by royal Alias. August 3, 1849. DOWNINO.STEEET, April 13, 1849.—5ir,-1. I have the honour to acknowledge your despatch No. 24, of the 20th of January last, accompanied by a copy of certain resolu lieu passed eta public meeting of the inhabitants of Graham's Town, end also by a memorial to myself, directed spinet the measure of introducing convicts into the Cape of Good Hope. 2. I have to request that you will atquaint the me morialiats that I deeply regret that the proposal to intro dace a limited number of convicts, deserving of tickets-of leave, should have excited so much dis satisfaction in the colony. You may assure the memorialists, and all those who take an interest i% the subject, that the government never intended to send convicts of such con duct, or in such numbers as they believed to be in the least likely to injure the moral character of the colony ; but I em to add, that if the dislike with which the meow has been received should prove irsuperable, I have no wish to disre gard the sentiments of the colonists, and that I shell not send out any more tonic's whilst they entertain such decided objections to that course. 3. W hil st I hope that this an aemic, meat may be satisfactory, I need scaree/p observe, that It would be inconsistent with the expectations under which the party of convicts already gone to the Cape were taken to the colony, and with the claim which they bad established to favourable consideration, to place them under restraint, as is proposed in one of the naolatine, at a penal station. I have, &e., 01111'. These documents were received, says the Graham's town paper, " with come surprise, and not without a little laughter at Earl Grey's new-born feelings of justice:—namely, that it would be inconsistent with the expectations of the convicts, if they wore kept in restraint." After some consultation it was agreed to desire the chairman to write the following letter to his excellency : Towx Rouse, Atom 4, 1849.—8ir,-4 have the he. nour to acknowledge your letter of this date with its enclo sure, expressing Lard Grey's opinion that the convicts ex pected per Nerune ought not to be held in r.s•raint. I have communicated your letter to a large meeting of the iababi tants assembled at the Town How, and I am directed by them to request, that his excellency will be so good as to say, what he intends to do with the said convicts en their arrival, which is hourly expected. Waiting in the chair of this meet ing for your reply, I bare, dtc., J. B. EDEN, Chairman. While the meeting was awaiting his excellency s reply, a motion of Mr. Rutherfoord, seconded by Mr. Memngton, that five members of the association be deputed to station themselves at Simon's Town, as soon as the Neptune arrives, and to watch that the pledge be fully kept in regard to herself and her (sew, was unanimously carried. This motion had been urged by its proposer with much warmth, and was accompan ied by a voluntary proposal on his part to be one of the five to perform a duty, which, how ever =pleasing, was, he thought, one that absolutely THE BERMONDSEY MURDER. TRIAL OF THE MANNINGS. This important trial commenced this morning at the Old Bailey. Av night have been expected from the in terest whisk the cam had previoatly excited, the court pre sented, lung before the hour for the commencement of the pracer togs, a very tinususl appearance ; but the crowd out. ; side wa ty no means stria:ugly lug:. The arrangements made by the under-sheriff were so excellent as to prevent the possibili7 of confusion. Amongst those attracted to the court to wi.ness the proceedings, were the follow leg : 01 the bench were the Swedish minister ant hie secre tary, Count Colorado ; the Austrian minister and his seers. lazy, Baron Kohl.? ; the secretary of the Prussian legation ; the Marquis of Aseglie, the Sardinia* chant d'affates; the Marquis of Hertford; Lord Strangford ; Aldermen Carden, Magnay, and Lawrence; the Lady Mayoress; Mrs. Wilkins, the ls,ny of the learned serjeant; the Bev. Mr. Gibson, rector of St. Mary Magdalen, Bermondsey. However great may be the interest fclt in the trial by the publ;e generally, it appears to be fully participated in by the members of the bar, the pressure of whom in the court was so great that the bar itself ts,uld by no means accom modate them, and they were left to conduct their observa tions and criticisms In the adjacent approaches. A cemsiderable number of Maim; sat on a line with the judges, and in the raised seats of the court, and exhibited in their countenances an expression of anxicus expectation and interest. At tine o'clock several prisontn wen arraigned at the bar, in the ordinary CHUM of procedure, preparatory to their trial. The legal gentlemen engaged in the cue entered the court @berth,. beffire 10 ; gni at tire idautes after t►e Lord Mayor who wu immediately followed by the Lord Chief Baron, Mr. lodise Maul., azd Mr. Justice Creswell, by whoa the case was tried. The prisoners were simultanecuely placed at the bar. Thera was nothing remarkable in the appearance which they presented. Their expresdon was very calm, and while the indictment was being read over both looked dowa fix edly towards the bar. The e.nnsel for the prosecuti o n were the Attorney-Gene re), Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Brodkin, and Mr. Clerk ; for the male prisoner, Mr. Scrjeant Wilins and Mr. Charnoek ; for the female, Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Parry. The pri,oners were dmeribad in the calendar as " Fre derick George Mancisg, 30, traveler," and " Maria Man ning, 29, married." Tae charge placed in juxtaposition to their names being "the wilful murder of Patrick O'Connor. TLC prisoner Manning took op his position at one of the front corners of the dock, and his wife almost at the opreite extremity. Mewling was dressed in a snit of black ; the female wore a plaid shewl, and on her head a sort of white lam fall, covering only about half the head, and having a large flow ing tie extending dowa to the waist. The hair was ar ranged la long crepi bands. She had lam Miss ea her wrist, and wore white kid gloves. The indictment basing been read over by the clerk of the arraign", the usual question, " Guilty, isr Not gailty,"' wee addressed to the prisoners. Manning replied in ^ firm voice, "Net guilty; " the female made the same reply in a lower tone. Mr. Ballantine then rose, u counsel fee Maria Manning, and objected to her being tried with her husband, claiming for her a separate trial on the ground that she was an alien, and as such entitled to the benefit of the statute of Edward the Third, P. median& lingua, under which, besides being tried separately, half of the jury must be foreigners. Tho Attornef•Qenerai contended that, as the wife of a natural born British subject, although originally an alien, the prisoner had no right to a separate trial. In order to plead the statute De Meth:elate Lingua, she must have the disabiiities as well u the right of alien,. By the 7th and Bth Vie., chap. fB, lee. 18, any woman married to a natu ral born subject, or person naturalised, mast be deemed to be herself naturalised. The learned counsel then referred to Bar's ease in Mon's Reports, to support of his proposi tion. Mr. Ballantine said the words of the 7th and Bth Victoria, being in the nature of implication, could not be held to ab 'eget, the important right claimed by the prisoner. Mr. Perry followed on the same side. The 7th end Bth of Victoria conferred on aliens who were monied to British born subjects the rights and privileps enjoyed by those subject', but it did not deprive them of any privilege previously confined on them by set of parliament, if possessed by them at common law. No prisoner could be divested of the privilege in question without the authority of parliament. The learned consul then referred to the cue of doe dery Francis Ackland in support of his view. The learned judges then consulted for a few minutes. Mr. Perry then continued his argument. Ile said it was not necessary that the parties should be jointly convicted. The man might be convicted and the woman acquitted. This was a very early legal privilege, and it had never been taken away by any express enactment. The only thing which could take it away was by an enactment declaring that thenceforth an alien should be deprived of the privilege con. fared by the statute of Edward 111. If a privilege of this kind could be got rid of by implication, that would be a dangerous novelty in the construction of acts of parliament. The Attorney-General replied. The Chief Baron said that the answer to Mr. Parry's argu ment was that the statutes to which the privilege was at tached had been taken away. The privilege itself war not removed. Mr. Justice Croswell said that the statute of Victoria declared that every foreign woman who was married to a natural born English subject should be deemed to be natu ralized. The learned judges again consulted, referring to the au thorities bearing on the point. Their consultation having last about half-an-hour, the Lord Calif Baron then pro nounced the decision of the court. He said the female pri soner in this case claimed to have a jury de medietate, on the ground of her being an alien. The learned Attorney- General bad cited an authority, showing that the Court of Exchequer had decided that where two married persons were to be tried, one of whom was entitled to the privilege, the other could not claim it. He had also cited &statute Victoria, recently pined, which enacted in substance that an alien marrying a British-born subject should himself, by the mar riage, become naturalised. It appeared to him that the statute of Victoria was a complete answer to the application. The wife of a natural-born subject became naturalised by marriage. The words of the statute were, " That any woman m arryiag, or already married, or who aball be born, to • natural-born subject, or person naturalised, shall be deemed and taken to be herself naturalised, and have all the rights and privileges of a natural born subject." The obvious and plain inference from that appeared to him to be that she should be considered exactly as Usk' had been naturalized by act of parliament, or been • natural born subject. The question, then, was whether she could now claim a jury de nasefietale, though her husband could not make the game claim. The court had paused for the purpose !of obtaining • precise authority on the point. There was in Bacon's Abridgment an authority to this extent : " It bath been holden that denizen, so made by letters patent are denizens within the meaning of this statute." With that authority before the court it appeared to him afortiori that a person made • de nizen, or rather naturalised by act of parliament, mast be • within the intent of the statute a natural burn subj ed. lit, CONTINUATION OF TILE TRIAL. Pierre Walsh called to identify the body. Examined by Mr. Clarkson—Law the body of Patrick O'Cuuror, on the 18th of August, et the house in Meyer place. I knew him since the 26th of April last.

O'Connor said then that I (witness) had got the balance of the bill (Mr. Pitt's) to-day, for which execution had been .aken out by the officer of the, court, Charles-street, Hoxton. Mrs. Manning asked hies would he proceed for the other three bits. Nu. Ling bad been sail prev'ously about the three bide. O'Connor acid he would proceed. Manning and O'Connor comm. need cmokieg.

That was about a quarter to five. He was going towards Bermondsey. A Mr. Graham was with me, and some converscion took place. O'Connor showed Graham a letter. Mr. Ballantine objected to the production of the letter. The Attorney General said that no letter had been found. After a short discussion the must decided that the letter should not be ptoduced. Examination continued—O'Connor, after some conversa tion, proceeded to Bermondsey. He appeared in his usual health. On Sunday, the 12th of August, I went to the house 3, !dilate-place. I saw Mrs. Manning, who opened the ,'oor to me, and I went in. I asked her, Had Mr. O'Connor come there to dine on Thursday I She said be did not. I asked her had she not been down to his house on Thursday eight and the following night. I asked her the hour she went to his lodgings. She said seven o'clock on the first evening, be having been at her house the eight before, and not well. I said that was strange, he having been seen on Landon-bridge by two friends. She said nothing to that. I asked could I tee Mr. Manning, as he might have seen him. She said that Mr. Manning thought it ungentlemanly that O'Connor should not have come to his appointment. I thought that she looked nervous. I saw no Gas else. I inquired for , Manning, and she said he was out. She thought he was gore to church. I asked was it likely it I came round in the evening I should see Manning to inquire about O'Connor. She said they were asked out to tea, and would not be at home. I have seen her write. She and Nanning appeared to be on friendly terms with O'Connor. By Mr. Ballantiue—l knew O'Connor and Mrs. Man ning were intimate. I have often lett them alone together. I have often met them.

She spoke of havirg been with him to Vauxhall once or twice. She mentioned the name of a Mr. Walsh, residing there. She then said, "Poor Mr. O'Connor, he was the best friend I had in London." When she said that, I fancied I saw her countenance change, and become pale. I asked her if she was ill, cr if she felt the room warm. She said No; but six weeks before she had been ill, and was still angering from ie. I asked her if she had been to Mr O'Connor's lodgings on the 9th. She said "Yes."

He said his wife had been to the docks, and had Been O'Connor in a state of intoxication, having taken large quantieies of brandy for fear of the cholera. Manning added that O'Connor had shown Mrs. Manning his wall, leaving her all his property. Manning said O'Connor was a man worth 20,000 i. Manning asked me on one occuion what might be given to a man to produce stupefaction so as to make a man put his pen to paper. He asked whether laudanum or chloroform would do it. I made some careless answer to the effect that I had heard of drugs being used for suck purposes. He also, respecting O'Connor, proposed to have him at the house. lie said to me, " You frighten him well about the cholera, and make him take brandy as a specific." He also asked me once what part of the head was most vital. I said I believed it was wider the ears, where a slight injury would he attended wish fatal result. He also asked me where the brain was placed, and I pointed to the put. He also asked me whether I had ever seen an air gun fired, and whether it made any report. I said I had heard of such a thing, but never saw one discharged. Once, when talking of the wax figure of Rush at Madame Tussaud's, he asked if I thought murderers went to Heaven. I said not.
