I told Probert that I would do what they desired, but that I Ad not much understand the business. From this time I became a very frequent visitor at Tbur tell's ; Probert and Noyes were almost constantly there, and no charge was made for whatever I had to eat or drink. In about a fortnight after Probed first mentioned Thar tell's affairs to me, he called me into a private room to Thomas Martell, told him be had made me acquainted with what was intended,and that as be had known me f s ome time Thurtell need be under no apprehension of dan or ger. T. Thurtell then said—" Mr. Hunt, I will satisfy you for any goods you send here, and for which my bill is taken; and if you can get my acceptance discounted, you shall have a share." This occurred about the beginning of September, and both of them said that no time was then to be lost in getting whatever they could, as be, Thurtell, would have to go into the Gazette soon after the Novem ber term commenced. Another fortnight elapsed withont any thing being done, and then Probert saidi—" Hunt, your appearance is very shabby. 1 will get Thartell to Mve you his acceptance, payable at his bankers, at Pall all, where be keeps an account, and no tailor will refuse to take such kbill for a suit of clothes. He afterwards gave me a bill for 10 1 . Ills. and I trie d it at several places, but could not succeed, and I returned it again to Thurtell. By T. Tbortell's desire I ordered some expensive arti cles at Dare and Slarks, in Cockspur-street , wh ich were s ent according to the order. There was about this time to be a great dinner at the Cock; and about ten days before the dinner John Thurtell went to Probert's cottage on a shooting party for a few days, to shoot on the grounds of a Mjor VVoodsreturned the day before the dinner, and at the dinner be took the deputy chair. On the same day that J. Thortell returned from the cottage, he told me that be had become desperately in love with Miss Caroline Noyes, the sister of Probert's wife ; but that she had pro mised her hand to a man named Wood; he said, however, tbat be did not care for that, lie would continue his visits, and endeavour to supplant him ; and I understood from him that he frequently went to the cottage, until one Sa turday when be was going down there, lie met Mr. Wood and Miss Noyes coming to town together. This very much vexed and mortified him, and he then commenced writing letters to her, which were either unnoticed or returned under cover; this only served to irritate him still more, and be inveighed most bitterly against Wood; Prohert also joined in the abuse of Wood, and said—" Yon know, John, 1 hate the fellow, and there is no man of my ac quaintance that I should like to have the girl but your self." Thurtell said no man in this world should ever stand between him and his happiness, if he lost his own life in the cause; and that he should go to Norwich the then next week. and get his friend Harper to lend him his air-gun to settle some of the gentlemen who had ill-used him. He said there were three or four on the list, but Wood stood first, because he was in the wav of his hap piness. I understood from Probed and John'Tbortell that Miss Noyes was entitled to sonic money on her marriage, and that if she married J. Thurtell, he and Probert were to go into business together. J. Thurtel: went to Norwich at about the time the indictment was preferred against him and others for the conspiracy, and he was absent two days. I met him in Fleet-street the same night lie returned, with the air gun under his arm. John Thurtell had written a letter from Norwich, ad dressed to me at Mrs. Mountain's, wherein he informed me that he had got every thing he wanted, that all was right; and desired me to inset him at nine o'clock on Saturday evening at Temple Bar, at the corner of Shire Lane. I was a quarter or half an hour beyond my time, and found him waiting; he showed me the air gun and a double bar relled pistol, the latter he said would be of no use to him, as it would make too loud a report. It was a large sized pistol, and had the name of M. Harper upon it. We went to Mrs. Mountain's, and after taking something to drink, I left him. The next week be gave me the pistol, which pawned at Cotterill's, in Shoe Lane for eight s hillings, and it is now there either in the name of Jones or Hunt. The ensuing week the plan of shooting Mr. Wood, in Castle-street, was determined upon as follows:—Wood, Probed anti Noyes had lodgings in the same house to gether, at No. 35 or 36, Castle-street, Leicester-square, and it was agreed that some night when Noyes was down et Probert's cottage, Prohert was to go home early at right, and keep the landlady and her d a ug hter drinking below stairs after Wood was gone to bed ; and when he was supposed to be asleep, John Thurtell, disguised in a boat cloak, was to enter the house by means of Probert's hey of the street door, proceed to Wood's room, and shoot him through the heart with the ait-gon. He was then to place a small pistol that bad been discharged, in Wood's right hand, so that it might appear as if he had shot him self, and he was then quietly to leave the house, and sleep in the city. Probed was afterwards to have gone up stairs, and found Wood in this situation, and given the alarm, or the landlady was to have found him dead the next morning. An inquest would, of course, be held on the body, and it was to be made appear, that in a fit of in sanity or despondency, he had shot himself. Probert said he would attend before the inquest and swear that Wood was much embarrassed in Lis circumstances, and depressed in his spirits, and that was the reason he bad no doubt why he had destroyed himself. John Thurtell asked a man, named Wools, who keeps a sale shop, and who was in the habit of using his brother's house, the price of a boat cloak for the purpose, but I do not know whether he bought one or not. The reason why this plan was not carried into effect at once was, that the air-gun was found to be out of repair. and it was sent to a gunsmith's in Gerrard street to have a new valve. Thurtell told the gunmaker he bad it for the purpose of killing deer; the repairs came to a shilling or two under a pound. The night Wood's murder was to have been perpetrated, he fortunately did not sleep at home, and some accidental circum stances afterwards caused ft to be put off, and the idea of shooting him in Castle-street. altogether abandoned, although Probert was continually urging Thurtell to commit the mur der, saying there could not be a better time to serve him , as the landlady had no other lodgers in the house. Probert often said, "If you mean to do it, why don't you do it at onoe ; you know 1 can keep the women engaged." Thurtell replied. " D—n your great eyes, if you want it done, why don't you do it yourself; you are big enough and ugly enough, and there is the air gnu at your service. On which Probert used to turn it off with *laugh, andtaay, " You know, Jack, I want you to have the woman, and should not like Wood to get her." The house in Manchester buildings was taken for the express purpose of destroying Wood, and making it a warehouse for I whatever goods could be obtained from tradesmen by fraudu lent bills. J. Thurtell took it from a solicitor in Berner's street, and gave a reference to Cousins, a linen draper at Ken sington, to whom also a great quantity of Thurtell's valuable property was sent. Thos. Thurtell pawned one of the looking glasses for U. to pay for the agreement. I went with J. Thurtell and Mr: Asseretis's clerk, to see the house, and J. Thurtell told the clerk he should not want the fixtures, as when his family came from Norwich, be must have all new fixtures and furniture. When this house in Manchester buildings was takes possession of, I went with a waggon, hired from Daffern, in Compton street, to bring away a greet man y art i c l es o f furniture and bedding, which had been obtained from different tradespeople, and deposited in a cottage which T. Thurtell bad bi te ' at Ketologtot for the purpose of secreting them. Some of these things were afterwards seized, as I have been given to understand, by the creditors, at a house in Cumberland street. The next plan against Mr. Wood was, to entice him to the house la Manaboater buildings, and there destroy him. J. Thastell borrowed a pair of heavydumb bells, albs. each, from ' a Mr. liaaeoeb, sad lt was settled that I -should by stratagem 11,1.; I I , .'.; • „ I • 711 E WATERMAN get him to accompany me to and enter the house, and when he was within side, l was to shut the door upon him, and go to Charing. cross, where Thurtell.was to meet me, after dispatch ing him. And, in order to account for his absence, a letter was to be sent to his lodgings, to say that several writs were out against him. [Of this confession, which it is said, encreases in interest as it proceeds, the remainder will be published In two succeeding number?.] COURT OF CHANCERY. —SATURDAY. LORD PORTSMOUTH'S CASE. IN RE LORD PORTSMOUTH. This was a Petition on behalf of the Committee of Lord For d s of estate, praying that the trustees under the deed of 1799, might be directed to pay the sup of 5,2504, forming the arrears of maintenance due to the estate. By deed of trust, dated in November, 1799, certain trustees were appointed to manage Lord Portsmouth's estate for n i ne ty- sev en years, and the trustees now appointed are Mr. N. Fellowes, Lord Grander, and Mr. Hanson. It is to compel these trustees to pay the maintenance due to the lunatic that this Petition was presented. Mr. SIMIAN, on the part of Lord Grantley, acceded to the prayer of the petition, upon condition that Mr. K Fellowes should pay over the balances in his hands to the banking-honee of Messrs. Drummonds. Mr. HART opposed the petition, on the ground that there w ere no assets in the bands of t he trustees to pay the sum now demanded. Mr. N. Fel- The LORD CHANCELLOR asked. supposing lowes was receiving solel y , for his sole use, the whole of this money, was this a petition upon which that question could be agitated ? If Lord Orantley thought himself in jured, why did he not present a separate petition ? No question could be entertained that Lord Portsmouth ought to be protected by all the trustees for the time being. If it were true that Mr. N. Fellowes, or Mr. Hanson, or Lord Grantley, were setting up an authority to act as the sole trustee for the time being. and receiving sod paying the money lent, let a petition be presented, and the fact proved, and it would soon be seen what the fate of it would he. Mr. HART. on the part of Mr. N. Fellowes, expressed his surprise at the manner in which this case bad been con ducted. He had hoped that the matters introduced by Mr. Sugden would have passed sub silentio; but, on the con trary, his Learned Friend, as the curator, or Committee of the Solicitor-Oeoeral, had thonFht fit to take up his quar rels, and to introduce all this irrelevant matter. It had been said of the Engsh nation, that when they saw two me n fighting, they mu li st fight too ; but Mr. Siagdeo had gone still further, and chose to fight when other men were most peaceahTy inclined. The plain answer of Mr. N. Fellowes to this petition was, that he had not received, that he bail not the means of receiving any money, and that therefore he had nothing to pay. As to the question Mr. N. Fellowes had or had not received the rents, it was immaterial and irrelevant, where no petition had been pre sented on the part of Lord Brantley. The matters which had been introduced by Mr. Sugden would make no im pression upon his Lordship's mind, but the evil was, that they would travel out into some newspaper, probably ac companied with great inaccuracies, and it would be said, that the brother had inhumanly withheld the sup port due to Lord Portsmouth. It was therefore it that he should here deny one or two statements :-Ist, that Mr. N. Fellowes had refused to make any payments to the Com mittee; and 2dly, state that he has sworn nothing upon the affidavit, but what was most true and accurate. With respect to the maintenance of Lord Portsmouth, it was found that the scale which had been adopted was more expensive than even his fortune would admit. Perhaps on some future occasion the Court world take that point into its serious consideration. With respect to the appoint ment of Mr. Ellis, it was well known that at the end of the year that nomination ceased, and it was referred to the Master to appoint a new receiver. This was a most simple transaction, and he did not see on what ground Lord tirsot ley had thought fit to interfere in that arrangement. Mr. Newton Fellowes was prepared to pay what was due with the monies in hii hands, but the answer to this petition was short and simple, that be bad at present no assets. IN RE SIR GREGORY P. TURNER. A petition was presented to traverse the finding of the jury in this case. It was opposed by Mr. HART and Mr. Symms: ; and the LORD CHANCELLOR directed an affidavit to be filed by Mr. Kirby, Sir B. P. Turner's new solicitor, stating the circumstances under which he was appointed. lo the mean time the case stands over. e .hether an insolvent, having employed an attorney to sue out his discharge, and having then gone wit of prison, and being again arrested, could employ another attorney of the Court, to sue out his discharge, without having paid the first. The Court decided that the insolvent was at liberty to employ another attorney on his second application, and ordered him to he discharged forthwith. William Holden, a very young man, was opposed by John Anderson, a tailor, who stated his cause of complaint to be, that although he offered to take his debt of 171. at even a shilling a week, neither the insolvent nor his father would pay it. The Court told hisn there was no penalty in the Act of Parliament for such a case, and ordered the insolvent to be discharged. POLICE. —a s egeos.- Gtriumatt.—Joks Metre was brought up in the custody of Lucas, the officer, lon Saturday, before Alderman Toomrsou, M. P., charged with a considerable felony by his master. Mr. Fare, of Bridge-street, Cheapside, merch ale, deposed that the prisoner is a porter in his employiii-ot. When he left his warehouse on Friday evening every thing was secure; but on going there the following morning, he found his warehouse had been entered, his desk broken open, and plandered. Fortunately there was nothing in it of great value, the only articles of worth being two gold seals. From this circumstancce he endeavoured to find out the offender or at least to obtain some clue t h r ough which be m ight come at the truth. The prisoner being his porter, his suspicions fell upon him, and they were not a little heightened by the circumstance that, some time since, he (Mr. Fare) had fitted up a sleeping apartment for the prisoner, which was attached to the warehouse. No person, therefore, could have so easy an access to the warerooms, or knew the means of entrance better than the prisoner. Having thus reflected, he resolv ed upon immediately searching the prisoner's apartments He therefore proceeded, and effected the opening of a chest of drawers which were in the prisoner's apartment, and in which he found the articles now produced, and amongst them were the two seals. The articles found were three new German damask cloths, value 61. and two pieces of very fine Irish linen, value 51. and the two seals, value, at the lowest, Ws. All which he knew to be his property from his private Risk, and could, therefore, safely swear to them. Lucas stated, that being sent for be went with Mr. Fare to search the prisoner's room, and the above men tioned articles were found in the drawers. He found a crow-bar in the wareroons •, after this discovery he took the prisoner into custody; he then searched him, bat found nothing upon his person. The prisoner owned to him that he aid open the desk. The ALDERMAN then asked the prisoner if be bad any thing to offer in his defence? The prisoner declined saying any thing. Mr. Fare then swore to the property, and added that he would wish to have the case remanded for a few days, as be believed that the prisoner had carried on his practices to a much greater extent than be was at present aware of, and this delay would enable him to ascertain things more clearly. The ALDERMAN said he would be very happy to comply with Mr. Fare's proporition,and as the case was of a very serious nature, be (Mr. Fare) should have any time or assistance he thought proper. He would therefore remand the final hearing for a future period. The prisoner was then sent to the Compter. BOW•STIABET. — On Friday night, jut as Sir R. BIRNIE was about to leave the bench, a decently dressed woman presented herself before him in a state of great agitation. and implored him to lend her some assistance io the reco very of her daughter, who had disappeared in a very ex traordinary manner. The poor woman stated her name to be White, and that her husband lived some time ago at the Tavistock Hotel, in Covent-garden, but having unhap pily been guilty of plundering his employers of some linen and other things. he was tried at the Old Bailey, and sentenced to transportation. Some months ago, she hired herself, in the capacity of cook, at a boarding-house in Norfolk-street. Strand, kept by one Mrs. Bliss ; and her daughter, who was not yet 13 years of age, was also taken into the house to assist in walling npon the boarders. On Monday list she received a present of two sovereigns (she being about to quit the service of Mrs. Bliss) from Colonel I.—, a gentleman who lived in the house; and her mistress cheered that she had now the means of going to see her husband, and it would be a good opportunity for her to go to Chatham, where he is confined un board one of the hulks. She(the applicant) had always studiously avoided informing her daughter of the unhappy fate of her father, and bad succeeded in keeping her in ignorance [ upon that subject, although the girl was constantly impor tuning ber to tell where her father was, and fretting because she could not see him. She could not therefore take her daughter with her, and Mr,. Bliss bade her make herself easy upon that score, for that she might remain in the house, and she (Mrs. Bliss) would take as much care of her as if she were her own child. With this assurance she was satisfied, and went to Chatham, from whence she returned on that (Friday) evening, and went of course, immediately to Mrs. Bliss's house to take away her child. The moment she entered the door, she asked the female servant who let ber in, how Emily was? The girl hesitated, and said she would tell her all about it, when she got down stairs. Alarmed at this, she ran down into the kitchen, where she found several persons, and 1 among them Mrs. Bliss's black man-servant, anti ono Mills, a carpenter, a friend of hers. She asked them eagerly where her daughter was, but received no answer, they merely looked at each other, and smiled significantly.l She then ran up stairs in a state of distraction, and demanded her daughter of every one she saw, but could obtain no information, except that she had gone away no one knew whither. When she was making her si ay up stairs, the man Mills followed, and seising her by the, arms, endeavoured to force her b a ck . and bruised bar I considerably. Mrs. Bliss, it was said, was from husk and in this state of things she left the house to seek 1 assistance of the Magistrate. From several circumstances 1 she suspected that Colonel L-- had, with the connivance of Mrs. Bliss, removed her daughter, and knew where she was. Sir K. &ANIS said, he would give her all the aid in his power, and despatched an otfiaer with an assault warraat against Mills, with directions also to bring Mrs. Bliss.— Mills was found and taken, but Mrs. Bliss was still out. — Mills, in defence, said Mrs. White was drank, and he bad merely taken hold of her to prevent ber from making a disturbance. Sir R. &ann.—Drank, Sir ! She may be drunk with misery, but 1 see no symptoms of any other kind of intepication. Do you know any thing of her daugh ter ? . Mills said he did sot. He was committed until he found bail, and the same evening Mrs. Bliss was taken sod Wog rod has watchhoose. On Saturday nteraisg the isvestigatioa was reamed be ldam Mr. bkNEMOLL, whim Mrs. White being pressed to (Weber reasons for sespeetieg Colonel L., admitted that they were but slight. Colonel L. bast often admired bee daughter's figure, and observed that she was a remarkably fine girl; and he bad also employed her to do needle-work for him, and seemed to like that she should wait upon hies. Mrs. Bliss's extreme anxiety to prevail plumber to go to Chatham, tied her wish to keep her daughter in her house were the grounds upon which she suspected her of conniv ance in tl • elopement ether deserter. • Mrs. Bliss made a very long statement of her kindness t, Mrs. White and ber daughter, and solemnly declared COURT OF KING'S BENCH.-SATURDAY. 11' GREGOR V. THWAITES. Mr. RICHARDS moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict in this case for the plaintiff, with one shilling damages, should not be set aside, on the ground of a variation between the counts in the declaration, and that which was alledged to be the libel as published in the Morning Herald. (The libel alluded to, was the report of a case as it occurred at the Mansion [louse in that paper, and which contain• ed a complaint of alledged impositions on emigrants from this I country toPoyais.Tbe persons complaining were returned grants, who loudly complained of having been imposed on by the representation of the Cazique of Poyais, Sir Gregor M'Oregor, and his agents. The Court granted the rule. USURY.-•- , ASSIGNEES OP GOLDING V. LAING. Mr. SCARLIITT moved for a rule for a DM trial in this cause, which was an action for the recovery of penalties of triple the amount of the money lent, on the ground of its baying been lent at an usurious rate of interest. The ac tion was on the 9th of Queen Anne, and the application for a new trial was on the ground that the money lent, which was in three bills of exchange, did not amount to 34101., as laid in the different counts of the declaration.—The Court granted the rule. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.--SaroaDAY. Joshua Vernon Cooper was opposed by We:heath on behalf of Samuel Sewel. It appeared by the evidence, that the insolvent, who was a working jeweller, had been discharged under the Act in the month of March last, and in two months after, took a house at Walthamstow, frem the opposing creditor. and agreed to purchase the furniture for fifty-four pounds, which he was to ply in cash. Mr. Sewel, finding it impossible to get the money, arrested the insolvent in the month of August, to which he gave bail, and after having rendered in the month of November, he sold the furniture, and spent the money in his support and law 'limners. The Coact decided that the insolvent's 'present insol vency was not the result of unavoidable misfortune, and that be was not therefore entitled to be discharged be fore the expiration of five years from the date of his first discharge. James Caber was opposed byy. Mr. Look, for Mr. Henry , Platte, an agorae) , of the Insole/at Court. The insolvent stated, that be went to prima io May last, and soon after retained Mr, Plaits as his attorney; et which time he told him that be was to receive a pension the next uman. when be would pay his (Mr. Platte') bill of costs. He settled with hit creditors in JIM., and west out of prima, was arrested again and seat to prisms in October last. Mr. Platte' bill being still napaid.—Tbe Id o bi foe which be was arrested in October was due to a mien named liarriaose, wisoae same he did not pat In hi s e gliedule be filed in May last, because the meaty was lent ia a friendly way. Barriugten now arrested him in a friendly manner. Mr. Cooke sibmitted ea the Good that it Wag a matter of great importan to the Solicitors of the Gear, she knew nothing of the latter since she left her 110: 1 ,.. She saw her on Thursday evening, when she came to her about some household matters, and that was the last tine. The girl was very obliging in disposition; and she (Mr.. Bliss) had never anv reason to suspect her of the slizlttust impropriety of conduct, except that upon one occasion 1 short time ago her mother found a piece of paper on the ground, close to Colonel L's. door, on which WAS writte n is the handwriting of her daughter —" I sigh, but am not relieved. —Emily." She had no other reason for suppos ing that Colonel L. knew any thing of the child. Ai a proof that she (Mrs. lilies) could have no intet tion of doime wrong with the child, she pressed Mrs. White to Like her with her to Chatham. Mrs. White declared that this was wholly untrue. She could not take her daughter without exposing the situa tion of her father. The slip of paper she fount in her daughter's bonnet, and she was sure it was wri'ten in allu sion to her father. She was a very sensitive girl. Mrs. Bliss's maid servant was examined, and said that on Thursday evening Mrs. White's daughter was in as rod spirits as usual, and that !Baying answered the draw. ing-room bell, she returned to the kitchen, and ordered " tea and dry toast." After that she was not :Tea i n i h , house, nor did any one know in what way she left it. Colonel L— gave Mrs. White and witness two sove reigns each. He gave it for himself and the rest of the gentlemen. Mrs. Bliss being again questioned, said that Colonel L— was out on that evening, but returned at Lis usual hoer. The investigation had now lasted several hones, without any light being thrown upon the disappearance of the girl, and Mr. Mitstalll3.l. said, the only resource left was, to set some intelligent officers upon the task of endeavouring to find out her retreat. Ellis, Blackman, and others, were sent away instantly, and it was in a abort time ascertained that else was in a house in Villiers Street, Strand. Mae- m 3n went to the house, where he found that his informotion was correct; bat the girl had retreated to a room and locked herself in, and she was silent to all his demands for admission. He at length burst the door with his foot, and brought the unhappy child away, and in the evening she was examined before Mr. Minshull. She is extremely tall for her age, has a fresh colour, beautiful complexion, and remarkably fine face. She sobbed aloud upou bI ig questioned. and it was with the utmost difficulty that a single answer could be extracted from her. At length she admitted that she went away wits► a gentleman, hut here she again stopped, and it was not until the question had been repeated more than fifty times, that she was presailed upon to name hinn She did, however, finally name him, and related other circumstances, which it would be e trernely improper to mention at present. it is sufficient t say, that upon her information a warrant was issued for a very serious offence, and the officer desired to apprehend him as soon as possible. The officer went previously to the gentleman's lodgings, but he was not at home. Mrs. Bliss was set at liberty, upon au undertaking being given for her appesrance on a future day, and the girl was placed under the protection of her mother. BIR.MACQUEEN'SROBBERY.—At the above office the three brothers, William, Joseph, and James Thomson, who are in custody on suspicion of having stolen a large quantity of jewels, &c. in the house of T. P. ►facqueen, Esq. of Palk-lane, were brought up from Totbill•felds Bridewell, for further examination at this office on Saturday; but re manded until Wednesday next upon the application of the prosecutor, and by the consent of their own solicitor, without any further evidence having been adduced.—We understand, that since the last examination, the officers have discovered an embroidered shawl, and some other articles, but the great bulk of the property stolen, still remains concealed. Surans.—On Saturday, a Coroner's Inquest was held on the body of Mr. John Wade, of the firm of Wade and Wit son, mercers and haberdashers, Hanway-street, Oxford street, who put a period to Isisexistence on Thursday night last, at his private house, No.ll, Fitzroy-street, by cutting his throat with a pen-knife. Among other witnesses exa mined were the following:— - - - Mr. Wilson, of No. 9, Hanwarstreet, deposed that be was in partnership with the deceased, who latterly, at times, was perfectly delirious. His nephew's affairs pre%- ed much on his mind. Although he had lost about 1d$)1. by his failure, that could not make any material alteration in his property, as he was a man of considerable fortunr. The money which he lost by the nephew had been mil dered as lost two years ago. He had nine nephews and nieces, and was a bachelor. He was about 60 years of ago. One of his nephews resided in the house with him at No. 11, Lower Fitzroy-street, hut not the one whose affairs had distressed him so much. The deceased had laboured under an astlimatical complaint many years, and was in an en feebled state of body. Within the last ten days he had ex hibited strong marks of derangement. When witness was acquait,ted by Mr. Bartleymore, a surgeon, of some cir cumstances, respecting the deceased, be thought it neces sary to make the housekeeper acquainted with the peculiar state of the deceased's mind, and he believed that the ra zors were taken away from him; certainly they were once removed out of his way. There could be no doubt but the deceased had committed the act with his own hand. Mr. Eyre, a surgeon, residing in London-street, Fitzroy square, deposed, that, on Thursday night last, he was sud denly called to attend the deceased, of whom he had n . a previous knowledge, and found h im in bed with a kilo clenched in his hand, and a deep wound, which divided the artery on each side of the throat, either of which was al te sufficient to produce death ; the bed was covered with blood, and the deceased, although not cold, was totally be yond surgical assistance. The mental derangement of the deceased was cle an l y proved, and the Jury , without hesitation, concurred, returned a verdict—" That the deceased put a p e his existence by cutting his throat with a p enknife, bei ng at the time in a ut.fLoll_selt ade range ." riod i to MARRIED.
