'The n iifortsviate Pii-nner was a mild-iook -stitt decently-tii•eow , l ) oilog nt.nu, mid behnveil hirn t!.:4l self at the hie with great comrisure. Ile %kook isaela with 'nine friends whom he recognized in front of the 'lot k. • Mr. Wit FORD opened the pleadings. A 1.1.17.1( stated the care for the Prosecution, itt.l detailed the nature of the evidence he had to adduce agairisothe unfortunate Pri.oiler, exactly as it mot given in the following evidence : • The brstiitoie.4 was Esther Surrey. who gave her evidence as follows :—I am a siegle now residing at the work-house at Ilunnertou. lu September lest I lodged in the mine house with the reimiser ; it was his wife's father's house. In the latter end of that month, I believe the ego, on Tuesday, Prisoner and his wife went nut together about three o'clock in the day.--[The Prisoner here reclaimed, is Please you, my Lord, that's false.") "I did not see tirem *gait' until they returned about half-past gig o'clock in the evening. but I do not know whether they rime in both together or not. I Awl Low them nt the stile talking before the olormieith another man, where they staid about a tplatto of an Floor before they entered the house, hot the men did not conic in; his name was John Lawrence, and the Prisoner was very jealous of him, for he afterwards said he had ought him that even ing with his wife ; he se . d this when be Caine in done. arid when lie had some words with the de r Posed, whom he culled a w--, and charged with briv • wills this men; she replied he was a law. He then asked her to go to bed, she said " Yes." They both then went into the bed m together as I thought tie go to real. They feli both undres•ed and went to Fled. At r h ea t 'ne the deceased's little brother and sister were ie the house in bed : their father, who was is w , etchmin, was out. I wri Ili the act of going to iw,l nith thr children, who slept in the adjoining ti••• , n. Prisoner soon after came nut flout his wife's re-in ions ours. and sat himself down on the bed is re the children were. lie said to me, " Are you keno,. to bed?" My reply was. " I believe I shall." Ile then went back to his wife's room, and in a "tootle or two returned. and sat again upon our bed undres.etl, when I asked him whether lie wish ed to sleep with the children. His wife, who was in the next room, and who could overhear him, then " I'll get up." He went back a second time to his wife's room, and then I heard a blow, as I rhooght, from the sound, as if from his fist. I im mediately got tip and went to the door, and the little , boy in the bed I had just quitted, roared out "Dlur d.•r !" When I got to the door the Prisoner came wilt' from Itis wife's room. bearing an axe in hit and raid, if the boy roared out murder again lie would murder him ; he then returned into his IMd-roten, still carrying the axe; while lie was Poire at that time I lieerd the deceased halloo out very faitltlY," Lord have mere , ' upon me !" I think the said this shout three times. The Prisoner then came out into the room, and said he had done fur leer, and should be hung. He then asked the little boy (the deceased's brother) for his father's money, aid the b-y said he did not know where it was. The Primer, then took a chisel, opened the father's bus, and took away the money; after that he asked toe for a pen and ink, with which he wrote two votes, the sniper of which he tore out of the baker's Look. iVlien lie did this, be brought the axe, and held it up to me. and said, that if we ever spoke a eruct we should be dead, Ile then said lie must go 14 , 11. and that lie would go by the back door and Inter:, adding, if lie heard us speak a word, he would come bock and do for us. I gave an alarm as soon as I could, at Mr. Coition's, over the way, the Crooked Billet. It was a moon-shining night. Cross-esurnined by Mr. CußwuoD.—l am no relation to the deceased, but was a Mere lodger in tile house. They went out together on the eeth of Septendwr, whether they continued together. or slut, 1 don't know, but the first I saw of them after, was in the evening, when I sew them talking with siroilier man, near a spot where there was a cow. Louse. .-Ctilrjudge from the tone. that an angry couversation was passing between them. and I over heard Monter taxing his wife with liaviug caught I er in a certain situation with the man (Lawrence,) iu that cow•linum. His words were—" I have caught you in the fact." This was outside the door, Bed the conversation was continued angrily after they entered the house. into which he shoved Ler in an angry mariner. After she bad gone into Lcr rota. lie came out of it two or three times, ants ler seemed to he very uneasy. I overheard her say to the Prwouer that she wits carried into the cow-house Its Lawrence; the Prisoner replied. if she would awesr a rape against the men lie would take him up to Worship-street; she replied she would not do it. I did not.hear her my she loved his little tioger better than her husband'', whole body, nor that she would ger up and go to Lewrence. Re-e.rossined.---The wmiimn did say whets he accused her of beitig a w--, that h e was a liar. Thomas Sole. a bey about twelve years of age, the brother of the deceased, corroborated the last witneses testimony respecting his being in his own bed-roan au the twins% is (petition. Ile went to bed about a quarter of as hour slier the deceased (his - sister) and the Prisoner came home. The bey described the amicable eisisner in which they west oat that morning. and then reverted to their jarring at night. by which lie was awoke.— He first recollected the Prisoner's saying to the deceased, after he (witness) awoke, " Don't you go out to make may pith yourself;" oa which li. - the last witness said; No. she won't." He theft asked her to go to bed in the same manner as Was stated by the first witness. 'They then undreried, and, as witness ripposr4l. went to bell ; but the Prisoner soon came out of his room into wit iiess'a, and went as if searching ►nnod the ri,olll.lollkintr 'into every place, as witness thought, for the use, which 1w at length fotsiid in the cupboard under the stairs, where his father had put it after cut tin 4 some wood the same night. The deceased at this time rolled out and risked him if he was not coining to bell ; he refitted, no, for he was going ter ►lrep with the children. She then said she would get op; lie called out, '' No, no, don't get up, VII color to bed to yutt." He then went into and nit room his wife'• room two or three titnes.

Ile then came into the loom where "tittles. slept, and s:iid, " 1 have frr her," adding to Mrs. Stirrer and w if they offered to stir or move he'd serve them the smut-. Prisoner then returned into his wife's room, mid ptit o n his istorikiNs, breeches, and waistcoat ; lie tenor out again, and said to witness, " Tom, where'', your father's money." %% mess replied, " fur God's hake don't take father's money, for lie hit got to psy it nw•tv." Prisoner replied. that if they offered to stir or move, he would serve them the sante. Ile then sat down on witnesses bed, Dad fetched his father's t-ox, where he kept his hi - 0 , and nails, and tools ; he took a chisel out of it, with which lie broke (pet, his father's box. and took a I/. note out of it, and something else which with Ill'ag coup l not see. He afterwards pot on 1114 jacket and shoes, ■nd went out ht• the hark door, threatening them not to dare to stir after lie went. as lie menet to stop itnd listen, and if he heard Them more would be the death of them. Soon after, witness followed Mrs. Surrey into the Hest house, and gave the alarm. Ills sister's name was Ann. snit site married the Prisoner. who was a bricklayer's labourer, three years ago. Cross examined by Mr. Noßrom..—They were very good friends th4t day before they we•t,t not, at two or three o'clock that afternoon, soul lie kissed her. His fr►tb.r examioaniun was merely a repetition of his direct evidence of whit occurred at night, with the adtlition, that the Prisoner tsp. towed agitated, and charged her with having been with soother snail, and she was SC0111111; with the Prisoiter fer attempting to take from her her pockets, which she said contained money not of his, but of her father's. Robert Fiereon, a constable, recollected the alum of mutter on the night in question ; hr re paired with Mr. COIIIIOII. a neighbour, to the house. where he found near the done inside, two puddles of blood, end on tingling In. eye lw saw the deceased lying on her back is the bed. quite dead ; on the right side of the lied there efa4 a great dent of blood quite congealed. Fie then prod.wed a large axe, which lie found in the chilriren's bed-room; it W:l4 full of blood on the back part when he found it, which was thick and heavy ; there was no blood on the sharp edge of the axe. The boy Sole proved this to he his father's axe, which was in the clipboard under the stairs. William Bailey, a surgeon, saw the deceased; she hail a wound out the kick of the bead. and others ors the forehead and temple; that on the back part must have been inflicted with a blunt instrument, and those in front b) some sharp Otte, like a knife of some kind. There wounds lie had Ho doubt or crannied her death—the jaw way fractured in two places. The hack blow might have been inflicted by the axe now in Court, but certainly not the front ones, they were more of the nature of stabs; the jaw might have been broken by the axe; either the back or front wounds alight ocea.ion instant death. George Ruttiven, the officer to whom the Pri soner was delivered into custody at Sandwich, in Kent, stated that on their rogd into town, the Pri soner told hint, that aunt? time previous to the goal Sept. his wife went out for water and staid a lung time, aid suspected she was with a mail ii, the cow house. On the •2811) lie caught this num and woman in the fact in this same cow-house, and the man escaped from hint. She said she was forced there by the ntin„ and Prisoner their told her if she would prows-lite him he would forgive her, but she refused and said she loved his little finger better than his (her whole lie told her to be Imaged. Prisoner then described to him the continuance of the altercation slier they went 111 , 111 e. Mild adulated his then having killed her with the axe, lie added, that after the first blow, she either sant " Oh, you knave !" or " Oh, you rogue," lie did not know whirh. TM* was the clec latation made by Prtsouer *llea he bad • him in custody. - - Here the .case for the Prosecution was closed, and the Prisoner. whet) collia upon fir hip &fever. spoke as follows, in a very tremulous tone " Ito the Monday. the day before, L saw my wife, who went out to get r pail of water. and was gone a long time ; on her return I chastised her for being out, knowing she had been doingwrung; the follow ing day she said she was going out, and suspecting her to be going to act improperly, and L followed her to the cow-house, near which I sew her with this John Lawrence, and on her return, whets I accused her of it, she said. " I may be d---41." and she vvonld do as she liked. The following day I told her 1 wanted to buy e pair of shoes, and ask ed hie to recommit', me ; sbe refused, and went off by herself half an hour before. I sought her for some time, mid at length met her near Bishops gate ; she at first refused to go with me, hat 'dui. mately consented. and soon after left me, and when I came home she refused to tell me where she had been ; I was very angry. and we had words all the time of ter. I told her I had not money r tttttt gh to get shoes. and she wanted the to ge to Church-st►err, Newington. where she said I might get them; I went theme rad found neither shop nor shoes. On my return 1 found her again from home, and tried fur her in the coach-yard, where she sometimes went to the men, but she wee net there. I then went to the cow-house. where I heard her ►reach. ing. He then minutely described the wirratien in which ice found his wife with Lawrence sou the eye- fling of the Sikh September, her entreaties to be • r "1. s forgiven. because the Men forced hrr in; he dated his offer to prosecute the moo, her refusal, and de claration that she loved that tunti'll finger better than hit (the hwthatort) whole hotly. Ile then admitted his having had a continued tllterottion with her in the and his Ist ing at length provoked and in the height of lwr abuse of him, and threats to go out t'Keill to the man whom she loved. and 0140 lier imprecatious that she would he the tielith of him or herself he then struck I,er once, twice, or thrice with the axe which he picked up in the room. and alter having dime so he drew lwr head towards litin, and kisiteti her sayiri---" You were once My comfort ; 1 11.1 yr now been pine death, and yotli my deny , will be the demti of me."

I-P.4rd nib the great provocation lie had rectivLd from n wom,in whom he tenderly loved. A 'mother of witnesses were then called, w!,o Kate the Pri-nii--r am excellent character. Alr. Baum Wow/ summed up the evidence to the Jury, rind remarked, that had the Privoiser com mitted the act of which he stood chanted, at the timmesit lie caught another man in adultery witlsliis wile, then the last•had hoinairely provided a penis. limo fur his crime. but here the act was deliberately committed at a subsequent period. when the Poi" siting had time to cool. and rierefore the Prisoner had th-etititled himself to the benefit he might otherwise hare had in the rye of the law. 'roe i''•, idler six minutes deliberation. found the Prisoner and the Itecutder immediately pronolitc.eti upon Lout, 'n the must solemn manner, the awful sentence of the law, which was, that he be N1 , 111(I:or next. The Prisoner lore his fate with the utmost COM. rostire, :51111 re,ired from the bar in the act of coolly wiping tl.e dust from the top of his hat. The Court was at as curly hour crowded. parti cularly with L:uiita.

She was taken to the Hoapilislo where she died from the effects of this wound on the 6th. inc Prisooer Lail in tie torsos time been apprehended, in conoequence of his intimacy with the deceased, who it appeared had told different stories of the wanner in whi c h she recei‘eol the wound, though MI every occiioiou s h e ess ,,,, i r ei t the Piisusier from being the parson who wounded her. There was no proof to Lring the charge against the Prisoner, nor any evidence to sliew that he was with the deceased at the time she received the injury. Under these circumstances, the Le-timed Counsel said it was for the Learned Judge to say whether, according to the forms of it Wag for Iti•tt to enter upon a case, which, as Cannot.' for the PrOSUCtiti . )ii, lie felt hint-elf at the outset unable to sustain. Mr. Justice PARK addressed the Jury and said. that from the statement from the Counsel for the Prosecution, it iv is clear no CAW could lie made out against the Prisuner to sustain the indictment. The Jury i 111 l uediately acquitted the Prisoner. BANK PROSECUTIONS. Dm. i ngruhull, Edteurd /fund, John Buller Newsom, George iVilkinson, Ilonnuk Green, W m , Junes, John Green, 'Montag Dubbins, Daniel Bing:, John Titherton, and John Webster, were severally arraigned, sod pleaded Guihy to the minor offence of having forged notes in their pos session. Tiieir pleas were recorded. and the I'6- *oilers are liable to 14 year* t ratsportaliwi. Itiehard Jenninzr, John Ilnrsison, Nary Ann Cross, 1 humus ill•Dermilt, James Stubbs, and John Bailey, pleaded Ayr Geary to the minor as well u capital offence. Their Walls were fired fur Monday, uu the capital charge. Arson. Jane Cooke was indicted capitally, fur having, on th e 3,1 ►natant. set fire to the house of John Campbell, Elig. sitneted in Seymour-place, in the parish of St. Nl:ory-le-boue. with an intention felo niously to destroy the same. Mr. BOLLARD stated the case to the Ju►y, lie said the prosecution was instituted by the Sun Fire-of f ice, Mr. Campbell being at present on the Continent. He stated the evidence which he had to adduce in rapport of the indictment (and which a few days ago we gave very folly in uur Police report). The first witness called was George Wilkinam, coachman. lie described the 111.1111Wf in which lie Dud others obtained admission into Mr. Campbell's house (as it was lately described in our Police report), by forcing at. entrance through the area door. on seeing smoke issuing from the windows ; also the state in which they found the house on fire in several prts up stairs. They went into several rooms without tinillsig any body ; it was about six o'clock in the morning, and on retiring from the bowie to get further estimator, some peo ple from the neighbourhood called out to them to bring oat the servant!. They then returned, and upon again looking into the parlour, they saw the head of the Prisoner seeping a. it were ken] under the blankets; they immediately went to the bed, where they hood her oohed, wrapped up between the blankets. mod it a stow a stupor and insensibi. lityi They aseedisiely rearbeved be, tip a bonne.

After a little time the recovered from her itistntibility, and b,gan to talk rationally. Site then avowed that she was the guilty person, uud did not wish any b.itly else to puffer fur her lac. On inquiring what wits her inducement to commit to dreadful an act. her relay was, that all her friends had turned their bark* Ilium her. and that she had no remedy left to rid liertelf of her eneinies except hring burnt in the 111 Oii being molted whether any body fool a ils;sed her to commit the deed, she s a id, " No, not parlienhorly." While the people who first entered the house, and afterwards went to see her alter • her removal. tvere talking with her, her old !Mistress entered and said, •' 0, Jane!" The Prisoner . immediately burst into tears, and ex claimed, " I aut guilty !" She then acknowledged that she had got up at three o'clock in the morning mud token a quantity of laudanum, which mixed with some hatless& belonging to her master and dunk it, and thou set tire to the house ; alter which she retarued So bed. Mr. North, • s• eon, of 74. Seymotir.idnce, who was called to attend the l'ri•oner wloilr she lay at No. 14. described the manner is which hr (amid her. She was much convulse', and bore marks or incisiosto oil her throat. which indicated that she hail made iitiempts to it stroy herself. Witness saw her %ennui two hours after she was taken ; she was then iti a state of great agitation ; on his fist visit she dtil not speak, on the second she talked incoherently, and said her character had beet: ruin ed by rubbish, and that she wished to destroy her self by fretting live to her house. She tasked mys teriously, and said she did Hot wish to ruin some people. and that though she had taken laudanum and attempted to cut her orn throat, she dill Hot wish to injure other people; she also talked about a soldier, and is table-spoonful! of laudanum. ernsre.roothsed Gq Mr. CURWOOD.—Her con. venation was quite incoherent, amid he certainly could not have pronounced the woman at the time to be in a state of *mind mind. nor would lie - say she was loupe. She was taken to the Mary-le bone !Amery at his recommendation. Mr. Gondgrr, apothecary at the Infirmary, saw her several times; she was generally incoherent ; she expressed a great apathy and indifference to the penalty to which she might he exposed for her conduct in this transaction. Slot appeared to wit ness to be insane on particular subjects. and to talk loosely of those who had, according to her own ac count, scandalised her; she appeared on many occa sions quite insane, and threw up from her stomach a quantity of black stuff, which appeared to be laudanum mixed with bile. fle never collected any thing rational from her; she talked ►ouch nonsense, but constantly admitted she had set fire to the house. Cross-examined.—He had no doubt of he► being insane, and this opinimi lie deduced from her state of mind after the effects of the laudanum had gone by ; he thought the disease of some statirliag, as it was of a melancholy kind, which was generally of ■ slow growth. France* Stowe mid, she knew the Prisoner for ten months, and paid her wages during Mr. Camp bell's absence on the Continent. The Prisoner h:•d confessed to her that she had set fire to the house, and also that site had previously made away with some of Mr. Campbell's property, and enumerated several articles, and named the pawnbrokers with wbom site kad pledged them, bat nit inquiry at those !daces, she was unable to see the property, or get any satisfactory admission that any such was pledged with. t lit in. Mr. Web'', surgeon of the House of Correction, had the Prisoner under his care from the 7111 ..f this mouth until last Tuesday, and during that time he had discovered nothing in her conduct to induce hint to think her d was affected. In his cross... Nomination he admitted, that she wait a little affected when the wars sent to the House of Correction. She had not been under merheal care with his, but previously, at he understood, with Mr. North. To prove that the honor was the property or Mr. Jahn Campbell. the probate of a will was put in, from which. however, it appeared. that Mr. Campbell had signed his name John Graham CaniPbell, and nit Jahn Campbell. Ur. CintWOou for the Prisoner, here rubmitted two legal objections, one for the varirnce between the probate, and the name in the indictment; the pecond was that the perimn in keeping of a house for another, wag not the occupier, and could only for au offence of this kind, be tried for a misde meanor. The Court reserved the first objection for the opinion of the twelve Judges. and said. that the second could only he heard in arrest of judgment in the event of the Prisoner's being found guilty. The ripe wa4 here closed for the prosecution. AIM Payne knew the Primmer for three years ; she believed her to be a woman of honest, sober eltaracter ; she described having seen her three days before the attempt to burn the litni,e, and from her manner then in talking she had no doubt of her being deranged. Mr. Justice Pa summed the evidence to the Jury, and, after detailing nll the facts of the case, left it to the Jury to consider whetter they thought the woman was in n state of sound •el when she committed the act. They saw, from the evidence, that she was insensible, and not attempting fivr escape, but remaining naked and silent in the midst of the flames; from which it would certainly seem, and particularly alien taken with the other evidence, that her mind was in a diseased state.— The Jury had heard also the opinion of the surgeon of the House of Correction. which wt.s different front that of the flawr medical gentlemett, as to her state of mind—and also the evidence of the woman to whom she had confessed site bad stolen novae of her master's proFerty. The Jury, after five minute, - consideration, found it verdict of Aot Guilty. on the ground of insanity when the act loos committed. Mr. Justice PARK—ks Let the woman be COll. tined until the King's pleasure respecting ber shall be known." The onfottsmate woman. whose appearance woo most wretched, was accordingly removed in custody from the her. This trial lasted until six o'clock iu the evening. _ - `_ --- ---~--i~._ -~!:_._~ M4RICETS. CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY, OCTOIII.
