LAW TELLIGENCE. COURT OP CHANCERY, DL.cn to. MARIA V: VtLIDAN. Mr. HART applied for a writ of we exeat repo against the defendant, who had entered into a contract for the purcha'e rf a cottage, for S 0001. and it was now feared was about to leave the kingdom to evade the performance. Mr. SHADWELL, for the defendant, observed, that there - was not the least pretence /FT the application: the plaintiff had failed in making out a gopd title, and the defendant had very properly refused to p.rform the • contract. The LORD CHANCALOR said, a sufficient ground had not bees stated for granting the writ. He ob served upon the necessity of reading all the affidavits in cases of this nature, even though they had been de cided by the Vice-Chancellor, or Master of the Rolls. It was only the day before, that a writ had been brought to him to be signed, a few minutes befoie hit going to the 'House of Lords. He had time but to take a cursory view of the affidavits, and signed the writ. Between two and three o'clock this morning. however, before he went to sleep, he began to doubt on the pro priety of issuing the writ. The doubt he still enter tained, and therefore begged, that if the writ had not issued, it might be brought back to him. Nothing of the least public interest occurred in the Cohn during the day. The case of 4 1Glassington v. Thwaites" was fixed for Tuesday. Mr. Agar having now recovered from his indisposition. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. --ow-- HERTFORD. W►acs 9. 1T...+0210i,A11 I. BAKU!

The prisoner denied that he had put anything into the coffee. Deceased did net say that site had seen the prisoner put anything iuto the coffee. David Saul sworn--I am a druggist, and reside at Whitehaven. I remember on the 14th of September last a person coming into my shop and asking me for twopennyworth of arsenic to kill rats with. I cannot positively say that the prisoner was that man. I refused t, lit the man have the arsenic, because I did not know hint. I told Mm that it was a rule with me not to sell arsenic to a stranger, unless he produced a second person to say what it was wanted tor. There was at that time a person of the name of James in my shop. The into spoke to Mr. James, and told him that be wanted some arsenic. Mr. James said,* What, do you want to poison your wife alrEady!" in a jocularway. The than said " No, B want It foe rats." Upon Mr. James tellir g rive that he knew the man well, I let him have about an ounce mud a quarter of sneak. I wrapped it up in '. three papers, and wrote the streifd N Ir . upon lt. told the man to take care where he put the arse aid to keep hie meat and milk covered when he laid it for the rats. There were at the time about half a dozen people In the Chop. John James dvosedlhat he Mid known the primmer ever sine, he wu an infant. Witness recollected seeing him at the shop Mr. Saul, it Whitehween, on the lath day of September. Within* heerd Mm ask Mr. Saul for some arsenic to MU rats with. Wherein said in joke to prisoner; " What !`are Ton going to poison your wife already?". Prisoner said no, he wanted to kill rats. Mr. Saul then asked' witness if he would be bound for prisoner. Wit , nem said that he would not be bound for him ; but that he knew him very well. Witness then saw hit. Saul give the prisoner something, which was wrapped up in paper, and marked " peteon,". and instructed the prisoner how it was to be used. Henry Bertuff deposed that he .knew the prisoner; remem bered seeing him on Sunday the 17th September. Witnete accons partied him to a . Mr. Atkinson's, where a sister of deceased was living in service. The prisoner went to carry a bat to Hannah. Hannahead that she understood Sarah was very poorly. Prisoner said, " Tea, she was; that be had been at Whitehaven on Thor& day, and bought her imme stuff; but that it had done her no good, it had only given ber a good heckling." William Wright sworn-1 am a surgeon, and reside at Gos forth. The prisoner came to me on the morning of. the 17th of September, and a•ited me to send some medicine to his wife. Ile raid that she had been ill all night, that her bowels were much relaxed, and that she suffered great pain. I gave him some medicine to take to her. The prboner came to me again on the afternoon of that day, and said that his wife. was worse, and that he wished me to ace her. I went to see het. I found her very ill, complaining of sickness, headach, and pain in the bowels. I was told that she had vomited very violently. I as. slated the deceased at the delivery of her child on Monday, the letils. She died on the Tuesday evening. I attended the 'Gerona's Inquest, but the body was not opened until Saturday.— On that day, I, in conjunction with Mr. Lawson and Mr. Thump-, ' son, opened the body. The stomach was very much inflamed, and In one part mostification had taken place. Tbr throat, mouth, and tosser, were also induced and excoriated. There was ;not much fluid in the stomach; what there was, was divided into two parts, and one part was given to me and Mr. Lawson, and the other to Mr. Thompson. The deceased appeared to have been In good health, except in the parts which I have described. I have no dada that ber death was produced by some corrosive poison. Crowexamined.— When the prisoner first called upon me, !seat two draughts to the deemed. The principal ingredient was lau danum. I alto sent some opium pills. There was no appearance of .plum In the stomach when I examined it. Jonathan Lupus Lawson-4 am a surgeon. On Saturday, the end of September, I assbted at an examination of the body of the deceased. The arms, face, breast, and as far down as the pit of the stomach, were of a clay blue appearance. The lips were dark coloured, and the lower extremities were more florid than usual. There was nothing remarkable in the appearance of the abdomen. On opening the body there was *profuse discharge of a reddish liquor. The bowels were very much inflated and in flamed, and in one part appeared to be in a state of decomposition. The stomach was more or leas inflamed in every part, and in one part there were four dark gangrenous spots. In some parts the coat of the stomach was destroyed, as if it bad been seared by a red hot into. The toopte had a bailed appearance. I have no doubt that these appearances were produced by some corrosive poison. Arsenic would have produced them. I had a part of the fluid consisted from the stomach, and applied several tests to it, but the resultwas unsatisfactory. The quantity was too small. Edward Thompson, another surgeon, confirmed the testimony of ' the preceding witnesses as to the state of the body when opened. Witness had applied seven different tests tithat portion of thefluld taken from the stomach, which had been given to him. Six of these tests satisfied him that the contained arsenic, and by three of them be had actually obtained the metal itself. Witness agreed with the medical men who preceded him, in attributing the death of the deceased to poison. This was the ease for the prosecution. The prisoner said nothing when called mean for his defence. Air. Baran BULLOCK carefully summed up the case to the Jury, who after turning round for a moment in the box, pronsmoced a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Baron Houncx immediately proceeded to pea magas of death upon the prisoner. His Lordship was much affected whilst be earnestly exhorted the prisoner to lose no time in _preparing for the awful change which he would so soon undergo. The execution was directed to take place oir Monday next. As mos as the lICIIIttIIce had been passed, it was intimated that the prisoner writhed to address a few words to the Court. Silence Was lagootibtoly god the prisoner said, '• Well, Gantk- ' men., I am elfin to glee up my life for the life that I have 'tabor The takag of say wife's life was nothing to taking that of ay AM.

The ribcage. When called upon to plead, refused to do so (as he said) Goa toll/has viand. ‘• If," said he," I plead guilty, 1 Ad aware* aikido;' and if I may that I am Dotgoilty, I shall tells lie." Banan fins.xocc advised the prisoner to plead not guilty; and assured hilt, that by 60 doing he would not be telling a lie, as the meaning of the proceeding merely was, that by so doing the accused merely put himself on his trial. The prisoner, however, remained obstinate ; and a Jury was at last sworn, to try whether be remained mute through obstinacy and malice, or through the visitation of Goa? Hr. Yotridge, the gaoler, was then examined as to the state of the prisoner's mind. He stated that the prisoner, since his confrxe meat, bad displayed ne symptoms of insanity, but had been remark-. ably well behaved. Prisoner had not acquainted witness with his iotention not to plead. The prisoner hat been constantly visited I.by Roman Catholic Clernmen. On this evidence, the Jury returned a verdict, that the prisoner remained mute through obstinacy. The prisoner then gave in a paper, which he desired might be banded up to the Judge, and which, he said, contained Ms reasons for not pleading. Mr. Baron Hoixocx again advised the prisoner to plead Not Guilty. The prisoner said that he wished the trial to go on as if he had pleaded that plea; but that would aot pronounce the words not guilty Upon dm Mr. Baron HULLOCIC ordered the plea of" not guilty" to be recorded. Mr. COUITUAY (with whom was Mr. Aostomer) stated the use to the Jury, and called thefollowing witnesses:— Mary ,Graham stated-I live in Carlisle. I knew Mary Brown, the deceased. I lived upwards of Bye months In her house as a lodger. The prisoner was frequently its the habit of coming to her house to see Mary.' He used to come about once every three weeks. lie and Mary Brown bad a quarrel a shaft time before her death. On the Monday before, prisoner came to nay house, about 12 o'clock at night, and i ns i ste d upon searching to Sad whe ther any man was in Mary Brown's house? I &dried him to go away. I saw him again on the Wednesday, and I told him, that if be warned Mary Brown, the best way would be to take her away altogether. He said that he thought that would be the beet way. On Wednesday, the 6th of September, Mary went away about twelve o'clock to a neighbour's house, where the prisoner was, and I did not see her again until the following day, when she was brought home in a dying state. Ann Irving examined-1 keep a puldic.house in Carlisle. The prisoner carne to my.house about four o'clock in the afternoon en the 7th of September. He asked me if I had heard of “ the mur der?" I said 4 No." He then said that there had been a murder, and that he was the man who had done it—that he bad sin ce wa lk e d 14 miles into Scotland, and had now come back to give himself up to justice. Ile said, that the woman - whom be bad murdered was named Mary Brown, and that she was a bad woman. He then began to cry. Ruth Williamson—l knew the deceased; I lived In the same house with her ; I saw the prisoner at the house of Mary Brown on the Sunday before her death; be and she came down stairs to gether; be was then threatening her; I recollect seeing them to gether again on the Wednesday morning alsout 11 o'clock; I did not see her again ; the next day, about four o'clolt in the afternoon, the prisoner same into my room, and said, " I have killed Mary Brown—l have hammered her brains out." At this I lost my re collection; when I recovered, I saw the prisoner stretched on a bed; I then went oat to give an alarm; the prisoner took me and a meat 'number of persons to a field to chew them where Mary Brawn wee lying. In the field we found Mary Brown stretched on the ground. She was not quite dead, but senseless. One of her fin gers was broken. Prisoner said that he broke that finger with the second blow of a hammer, which he had thrown away. William Shepherd proved that on the Ern of September, be saw the deceased and the prisoner go into the field, in which she was afterwards found. William Graham produced a hammer. which he had found lying in a hedge near the spot where the body of the deceased was found. Prisoner—That -isnot the hammer, it was J smaller one. • Mr. James :Vicars examiped..-I am a surgeon. .1 eaanqued tpe body of Mary Brown on the nth of Septembor.
