Atantial evidence, and, invited the ,most serious and anxious attention of the Jury to an inquiry so fearful in Its probable result to the prisoners. After minutely de. tailing the circumstances from which he called upon the Jury to draw an inference of guilt, he produced the fol= lowing only of evidence: Wm. Russell, the father of the deceased, said he saw e deceased alive at his own house in the evening of Sunday, May 7. He was then quite pert, was cheerful, and in good spirits. Witness lived a quarter of a mile itom his son's house, in the same parish, at Burwash‘ On . he Monday morning, about one o'clock he was aroused from hi. sleep by some dirt being thrown at his window. He got up, and opened the casement ; it was dark. The female prisoner was outside, and desired him to come down and let her in. She said that Benjamin, his son, had dropped down in a fit, or was dead. The other prisoner, who was immediately behind her, said the same thing. They appeared to have come toge ther, and wished witness to get Benjamin home. Wit ness dressed himself immediately, and accompaniad Leany about three miles into the parish of Brightling; and Leany brought him to a footpath, where they found the deceased lying stretched on his back. He was then dead, cold, andstiff. His clothes werron, and there was a handkerchief tied round his body. The spot was not far from the house of a Mr. Holloway, a farmer, about 60 or 70 rods from Gleddish Wood. The deceased was lying stretched out on bis back straight, the hands close to the body. The prisoner Leany then said, that he and the deceased had been stealing some corn from Mr. Hot. loway's barn, and had divided it into two parcels. The , sack which the deceased was carrying was the heaviest, and be complained of a pain at his heart at the time. Tbe prisoner then °feted to take a turn of his load. The deceased declined, and advanced up the field with the loaders his back, and prisoner, oncoming up to him, found him dead, but he did know whether he had dropt down in a fir, or died a natural death. -It was then so dark that witness could not see the dress -of the deceased minutely. Witness and Lean,' then moved the body into Gleddish Wood. and placed it on some oat gratton, or stubble. Witness's motive for so doing was to hide the shame of a transaction in which the character of his family might be injured, by its being discovered that a son of his had been guilty of a robbery. Witness re turned home between four and fire o'clock, leaving Leany to follow him at some distance. In his way he saw a poison named Thomas Hawkins, and spoke to him. Witness did not know the cause of his son's death until the following Wednesday, when the Coroner's Inquest was held. When examined before the Inquest, he did not give the same account of the transaction he now does, because he understood that those who helped to move the body would be puoished. John Woodsell proved, that about eight o'clock on the morning of the Bth of May, he was going into Gled dish Wood, and Leany, who told him he had found a dead man, Benjamin Russell, who had been going after a tub of gin, and he (Lamy) was to meet him at eight o'clock. He said he thought the deceased had made away with himser, but said nothing about robbing Mr. Holloway's barn. John Sheathe; proved his having a similar conversa tion with the prisoner Lenny about nine o'clock the same morning. Lenny said he found the deceased lying on his back. He saw Lean, again about two o'clock the same day, and asked him did he think Mrs. Russell could carry on the house the same way now that her husband was dead ? The prisoner replied, “ Yes ; I can get gin and beer as well as Ben could." Samuel Cruttenden, a farmer, proved, that having heard of the death of Russell, he went about eleven o'clock in the morning, and found the body lying in me very high grass, which did not appear to have been trodden before; he bad the body removed to a barn ; the temple and collar bones were discoloured. Robert Boules, a blacksmith, proved that about seven o'clock of the morning of the Bth of May, he called at Rasselrs house, and saw the female prisoner; the male prisoner came in soon after ; she said she had been greatly alarmed that morning by a noise upstairs, as if somebody had jumped out of the bed. She considered it a token of somebody's death, and hoped nothing bad appened to her husband. She said her husband went t between four and five o'clock in the morning, towards Gleddish Wood, after a tub of spirits, and had ordered Leany to go after him in about half an hour. The prisoner Leany had lodged in Russell's house about six weeks. Elizabeth Elliott proved having been at Russell's house about one o'clock on the Bth of May ; both the prisoners were present. Mrs. Russell said her husband had been in bed with ber till between five and six o'clock that morning. Hilder, a labourer, proved that he went with the female prisoner to see the body of the deceased the day it was found. She said on the way, she supposed ,she would be forced to buryhim on Wednesday, as s!:e expected he would be very much swelled, because he had eaten so hearty a dinner and sapper on Sunday. Oa their return to her house, witness asked her what time Leany went to bed on Sunday night? She said, why, Udder ? Witness said, " He was not in bed here, was Robert Ellis, headborough of Hawkesboroagh, when be apprehended Leany, be found him and Hannah Russell sitting close together ; be said, nobody could swear that either he or Hannah poisoned him (deceased); when witness was taking the prisoners to Horsham, Leany said to Mrs. Russell, " Don't you say any thing; if you don't nobody else can." Mrs. Russell said, " try and clear myself." 'lbis was the case for the prosecution: Richard Soden, a little boy, proved that he saw the deceased in the Sunday afternoon; he complained of a paib in his thest,und said he did not aspect to be alive on Monday. The prisoners said they had nothing to state in their defence. The Jury, after a few minutes deliberation. found the prisoners Oisitty. Mr. Baron Gamut then passed sentence of death en them. Sambas'. Friday ev e ez:::, Mr. Baron Gianau; i n pa:chive*. tenee on Resat and Benjamin Lawry, for-the wilful murder of Benjamin Russell, had, in the anxiety of t%e moment, omitted to fix the day for their ezecu. (ion. They were therefore put to •the bar again this morning, when his Lordship fixed their doom for Mon ' day, at Horsham. Since the conviction, we understand that Mr. Baron GRAHAM has entertained some doubt of the propriety of the verdict as to, the female culprit, inasmuch as she was charged by the indictment as a principal in the fifst degree, whereas from the evident. it did not appear that she wit present aiding* and abetting the alleged murder. Oil this ground, it -is understood that the woman is to be respited, in order to a more advised consideration of the case. In the course of this morning it wits currently reported that the wretched. culprits bad made a full confession of their guilt, and that they had administered the poison in the house of the deceased, at Burwash, and after it had taken effect, bad carried the body to the place where It was found, in the parish of Brightling. It is stated, in a letter from Alexandria, that a part of 'the PASHA'S squadron bad entered that port. POPULATION OF THE NITHIIRLANDB.---.The. oOp‘la- Non of the Netherlands appears to be Increasing.
