IN RE HOME COUNTIES AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, EX PARTE DR. ROBERT WOLLASTON. This was an appeal from a decision of Vice-Chancellor Kindersley, holding that Dr.',Wollaston was liable as a shareholder and contributor of the company in respect of 200 shares. The defendant repudiated his liability on the ground that the company promised to appoint him one of their medical attendants, and that on the faith of this promise he took shares in the company, and as this promise was not ful filled, and he was not appointed the medical officer of the company, he was not liable as a shareholder. Mr. Glasse, Q.C., and Mr. Brookbank, appeared for Dr. Wollaston, and contended that as he was induced by false and fraudulent representations to take shares, he was not liable as a shareholder of the company. Mr. Lewis, Q.C., for the company, submitted that the appellant, Dr. Wollaston, was clearly liable as a shareholder of the company. By the 7th and Bth Viet., sec. 11, it is required that a return shall be made of all persons ceasing to become shareholders of a company in the form of sche dule F. The appellant made no such return, but allowed his name to continue on the list of shareholders as a share holder of the company, without any notification of default or forfeiture or declaration that he ceased to be a share holder, and therefore he was liable as a shareholder of the company. Mr. Higgins followed on the same side. Mr. Glasse, Q.C., replied there was no declaration of forfeiture and no transfer of shares before the winding-up of the company. Lord Justice Knight Bruce and Lord Justice Turner were of opinion that Dr. Wollaston's name should be struck out of the list of shareholders of this company, in respect that, in default of paying up his calls within 21 days, due notice was given to him by the company of the forfeiture of his shares, and that it was a matter of indifference whether the declaration of forfeiture was made before or after the 21 days—it was a question of form, and not of substance, that did not affect the decision. The company allowed two years to elapse after the notice. Their lordships allowed the appeal, but without costs to Dr. "A ollaston. Costs of the official manager to be paid out of the estate.

POLICE IN2'ELLIGENC.E.-(TIIIS DAY.) BOW-STREET. STEALING MONEY LETTERS.—A gentlemanly-dressed man, named Burke, a clerk in the General Post-office, was placed at the bar on remand, charged with stealing a letter containing money, the property yf the Poitmaster-General. From the evidence of Mr. John Gardner, a clerk in the General Post-office, it appeared that the prisoner was in the service of the General Post-office, and had been so for about 11 years, as clerk. Part of his duty was to travel on Sunday evenings on the Eastern Coun- ties Railway with the Cambridge and Ely letters, which it was his duty to sort and arrange for delivery. In consequence of numerous complaints of the non-arrival of letters for that district containing sums of money, a fictitious letter was made up, in which was placed two half-sovereigns and 12 postage-stamps, in order to test the servants of the Post-office. It was directed to " Rev. W. Smythe, Rectory, Midhurst." The letter was posted at Romford, and the postmaster saw it put into the bag, which was taken to the prisoner in the Cambridge sorting tender. A letter directed to a place at Tunbridge-wells was also put in the bag, but not containing money. When the letters left the prisoner's charge the letter directed to Midhurst could not be found, but the one directed to Tunbridge Wells was properly returned. When the prisoner next appeared at the Post-office he was asked to account for the letter, but he denied all knowledge of it. Bingham, the police-officer attached to the establishment, asked him if he had any objection to his searching him. The prisoner said ho had not. In one of his waistcoat pockets a sovereign and four half-sovereigns were found, and in the other 12 postage stamps. Two of the half sovereigns and the postage stamps were the marked articles placed in the lost letter at St. Martin's-le-Grand. The prisoner's salary amounted to about £l7O per annum. Burke, in his defence, said he found the half-sovereigns and the postage stamps loose in one of the Cambridge bags. He was fully committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CASH-Box ROBBERY AT THE HA BANA MAR COM PANY'S OFFFIcE.—A LUCKY ACCIDENT.— ()belt Smith, a respectable-looking lad, and who for 18 months had been in the employ of the Habana Cigar Company, 48, Pall- Mall, as porter, was charged with breaking l open a cash box and stealing therefrom. some memoranda, a large amount of cash having fortunately been previously re moved. I From the evidence of Mr. Gurney Gore, the secretary of the company, it appeared that the prisoner, who was under dlccharge for misconduct, we t s in the habit of going to the office at nine o'clock in the morning, and that on Monday last about 12 on his (the secretary's) going to the safe in which the cash-box was deposited he found the box had been broken open with a pair of tongs with great force,tso that the box was broken in pieces, the pieces being left in the safe and the memoranda taken away—an accident only having caused a large sum of money not to be depo sited in the box. In answer to Mr. Beadon, the witness said the prisoner had been seen at the office on Monday morning, but absented himself till yesterday afternoon, when he came and gave himself up Mr. Louis Silberberg, manager of the company, said the prisoner was under discharge, and was to leave on Saturday next. On the previous afternoon the prisoner came to the office with his aunt and gave himself up, saying "he was very sorry." Nothing was taken away but the papers, but the prisoner was aware that cash was kept in the box, and a mere accident prevented a large sum being probably taken away. He had discharged the prisoner before for miscon duct, but had taken him back, the prisoner's mother stating that his suspicions at tho time were misplaced. He wished to state that a pair of tongs, evidently used for the purpose of breaking open the box, were found broken in pieces. Mr. Beadon remanded the prisoner for a few days. STATE OF TRADE. LEEDS, June 28.—There has been a quiet but steady market in the cloth-halls to-day, and about an average amount of business has been done. Prices of both wools and cloth are firm. At the Doncaster wool market on Saturday there was a large supply and a good demand. Prices were : Fine all-hog wool, 225. to 235. per 14,11 b. ; one third hog wool, 19s. 9d. to 20s. 9d.; ewe wool, 18s. to 18s. 6d. MANCHESTER, 28th.—In the yarn-market there was not much business. There was more or less demand from most quarters, home and foreign, except Germany. For the latter mar ket the uncertainty which hangs over the future movements of Prussia paralyses trade, and buyers prefer the cautious policy which has marked their transactions for some months past. In home trade. India, and some other yarns spinners are well en gaged, stocks are low, and there are not many goods offering, so that prices are firm and steady. in the cloth-market there is very little change since last week. The market is quiet, but there is some demand for most markets, and a steady general business is the result. Stocks are limited, most of our manufacturers have contracts on hand, and prices are well maintained. A failure at Liverpool of a house in the Manchester trade, shipping to Bombay, with liabilities to the amount of about £140,000, has created an unpleasant feeling, most of the losses falling on houses in this city. THIS DAYS MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. To-day's market was very scantily supplied with all kinds of wheat of home produce. Although the attendance of buyers was limited, the demand ruled steady, and Mon day's prices were well supported. The transactions in foreign wheat, the show of which was extensive, were limited. In the quotations, however, no ehange took place. Floating cargoes were very dull. The supply of barley was small, yet sales progressed slowly, at late rates. Malt was heavy, at Monday's cur rency. There was an improved sale for oats, and'prices were the urn higher. In beans and peas very little was passing. We had a moderate inquiry for flour, the prices of which were well supported.

The polling was resumed this morning (Tues day) at eleven o'clock, and carried on with great spirit, 70 votes being recorded during the first half hour, the numbers at the expiration of that time standing thus--; Gladstone Chandos 308 278 being a majority for Gladstone of 30. This majo rity was gradually increased up to twelve o'clock, when the right hon. gentleman was found to be 40 a-head. Up to the temporary close of the poll at one o'clock the Marquis of Chandos appeared in the ascendant, and Mr. Gladstone's surplus was reduced to 33. At the opening of the poll at two o'clock, the friends of the noble marquis prepon derated, and at 2.15 the majority of his opponent was reduced to 29, the numbers being— Gladstone Chan dos For the next quarter of an hour the polling on both sides was very spirited, about 40 members of Convocation recording their votes in that short space of time. From 2.30 up to 4 o'clock Mr. Gladstone polled nearly double the number of his opponent, and increased the lead to 57, the highest majority yet obtained: A special train having arrived at Oxford, conveying the Marquis of Chandos' friends, a reaction once more ensued, and the latter, until the close at five o'clock, polled nearly 3 votes to 1. The numbers at that time being— _ _ Gladstone Chan dos 425 The proceedings were re-commenced at seven o'clock and continued until eight, when the poll closed for the day, the numbers being— Gladstone Chandos Amongst those who supported Mr. Gladstone this day were—Dean Milman, Sir Cornewall Lewis, Bart., Professor Max Muller, Professor Wilson, the Master of University College, Rev. Thomas Keble, Professor Jowett, Sir George Prevost, the principal of Magdalen Hall, Arch deacon Churton, Dr. Jelf, Sir A. E. Scott, Bart. Bishop of St. Helena, Archdeacon Freer, J. W. Buller, Esq., Archdeacon Sandford, Dr. P. M. Latham, Dr. Molesworth, Rev. H. W. Burrows, Chichester Fortescue, Esq., M.P., Rev. J. Lawrell, Rev. W. U. Richards, Hon. and Rev. R. Liddell, Professor Walker, Rev. J. E. Bode, and Rev. Jacob Ley. Rev. 0. Gordon, Christchurch, and R. R. W. Lingen, Esq., voted for Mr. Gladstone on Monday. Amongst those who voted for the Marquis of Chandos were :—Major Burford, W. Gore Langton, Esq., M.P., C. Round, Esq., Sir John Hayes, Bart., Rev. W. E. Bennett (Frome), the Hon. W. J. Broderick, Sir J. Hardinge, and Dr. Pears. The issue of this contest is looked forward to with unusual interest by all classes in the country. The announcement that Mr. Stuart Wortley had voted for Mr. Gladstone appeared to take the Oxo nians by surprise, as his name had been mentioned to oppose Mr. Cardwell for Oxford City. The polling takes place to-morrow at half-past eleven to one, and from •two to five, and from seven to eight o'clock. SANDWICH. The polling for this borough took place yester day at the hustings erected in front of the Town hall, Sandwich. It was evident from the com mencement that the Liberals would again return Mr. E. H. K. Hugessen by a considerable majority, which was mainly contributed by the voters from Deal. At the close of the poll, at four o'clock, the result was as follows : Dlr. E. H. K. Hugessen (Liberal) , . . . 463 Sir J. Fergusson (Conservative) .. . . 180 Majority . 283 NEWCASTLE. CLOSE OF THE POLL. Headlam 2,170 Cuthbert .. 1,091 HALIFAX. Yesterday Sir C. Wood, Secretary of State for India in the new Government, met his friends at Halifax, and was re-elected to represent the borough in Parliament. There was no opposition, so that the election passed off quietly, The pro ceedings were conducted in the Piece-hall, by his Worship the Mayor. T. Selby Walsh, Esq. Sir C. WOOD, after a few remarks of a personal nature, said—l need not occupy your time in re peating the opinions which I expressed a short time ago, and with which you must be all ac quainted. I have nothing new to add ; Europe is at war; the armies of the two greatest military powers have been more than once in bloody con flict ; but our course has been that which I told you I thought was right—one of absolute neutra lity between the contending powers. (Cheers.) It is not for us to engage in these struggles in which the military despots of the Continent are en gaged ; our object is to preserve the peace for ourselves, and to promote peace between them, if possible. (Cheers.) We have seen recently accounts that, in a large portion of Germany, a strong spirit prevails by which it seems they are almost disposed to engage in hostility ; but 1 hope and trust that their own good sense, aided by the advice we have given them since we came into power, will lead them to abstain from hostilities. (Cheers.) At any rate, on our part no efforts shall be spared to keep those nations out of war who are not already engaged in it, and also to avail our selves of the first favourable opportunity to restore the blessings of peace to those who are now already engaged in it. (Hear, hear.) I believe that in our endeavours to keep Germany out of the war we shall be consulting the best interests of this coun try ; for I have been told since I came into this town how much trade is suffering from the appre hensions arising from the progress of the war in Central Europe. (Hear, hear.) But, gentlemen, in adverting to this subject I must plainly tell you that I entirely approve of the preparations which have been made for putting this country in a formidable state of defence. (Hear, hear, and a voice, " Brave old oak," laughter.) I hope and trust that no o..casion will arise which will • call upon us to exert these means of defence ; bit we cannot shut our eyes to the possibility that if Germany should engage in war this country may also be drawn into the vortex in defence of those interests which our national treaties have bound us to uphold. (Cries of " No, no," and " Defend none.") We are bound by treaties, I say, so to do —(" No, no") ; and I am sure there is no man, not even my friend there who interrupts me, who would not hold sacred the obligations of a treaty. (Hear, hear.) I hope the ocoasion will not arise; but if we have to intercede, depend upon it the effect of our mediation will not be diminished when it is offered by a country strong in her own re sources ; when she does not approach as a beggar, but can say, " That is your course"—not going to them in forma pauperzs, but backed by that which will give you a right to ask them to comply. (Hear, hear.) Upon the subject of national de fences permit me to say a word or two. In refe rence to Lord Palmerston's Government, and the part I took in the Administration as head of the naval department, attacks have been made of late, as having neglected the defences of the country. Gentlemen, believe me , there is no truth in those accusations. Lord Derby stated the other day that the navy was in a state of feebleness and decrepitude. Great orators are apt to indulge in oratorical flourishes. (Laughter.) Now, I can quote evidence that the late Government itself, in word 'and act, have admitted that when they acceded to power they found the navy in a most efficient state. Another question on whieh I wish to say a few words is that of reform in the re presentation of the people. ( Hear, hear.) Upon that subject you know my opinions. I do not think it is possible to pass a Reform Bill during the pre sent session of Parliament. (Cries of " Oh, oh.") We are now, owing to delays for which we are not responsible, about beginning a session in July which usually begins in February. The whole of the estimates have to be voted ; the budget and finan cial measures have yet to be proposed ; and while I tell you that the deficiency is nearer five mil lions than four millions—a legacy which our pre decessors left us—that deficiency which they created we have to make good ; you will admit - we have no slight task before us, and one which will require some time for discus sion. Now, the estimates and budget are not in ordinary times completed ni before Easter, or a b out two months from the begin . ng of the session • and the present session beginning in July, it will be the end of August before we can complete the finan cial business of the year. I do not think it will be easy to the House of Commons to consider a Reform Bill on the Ist of September—(a Voice— " Gammon," and some disorder.) It must be the first business to be undertaken on the re-assembling of Parliament, but to bring in a bill before we separate I do not think is possible. Now, gentle men, what that Reform Bill may be,. of course—(a Voice—" You don't care"—great laughter)—you do not suppose I can t e ll you. It must b e the ob ject of early and serious d e lib era tion among those who compose the p resen t Cabinet. That C abinet comprehends Lord John Russell, Mr. Cobden, and Mr. Gibson—(a Voice—" Where's Bright ?") — and that is some se cur ity that the Reform Bill will not be of the retro gra de nature of the l as t , but what it does will be soundly done , up on sound principles, .and framed's° as to extend the borough franchise to many to whom w e think it should be given. (Hear? hear.) The late bill proceeded on the principle that any extension of the borough franchise would be revolutionary and anarchical. Since Parliament met we were told by the late Ministry that they were prepared to concede even that ; I think there fore, in the new Parliament there will be no diffi culty in carrying a measure to extend that fran chise. (Hear, hear.) In what w e p ropose t o d o we hope to be backed by public opinion, and no Government can carry anything of importance unless it is backed by public opinion ; nor can any Government long withhold that which public opinion demands. With regard to my own posi tion, it is true I have some acquaintance with the subject of Indian affairs, having been Indian Minis. ter for two years. But how different are the cir cumstances of India now from those which existed when I left at that time. I left India in profound peace from one end to the other ; we had a surplus revenue, and the only thought I had at that time was to develop the resources . of the country, to im prove its cultivation, and to extend an enlarged system of education among the people of India. When I now return to the corresponding post I find public confidence shaken from one extremity of the country to the other ; that army, upon the fidelity of which so many staked their lives, and by which so many lost their lives, is destroyed, after having fought a long struggle. I find an enormous deficit ; a large loan has been negotiated ; the army has to be re-organised, society to be re-constructed, and financial embarass tnent be removed. I freely say I look with the deepest anxiety upon the responsibilities which I have undertaken. I was told it was my duty to take the post, and I did not think it consonant with notions of duty to shrink from assuming that charge. I feel the responsibility. I know how little man's wisdom and man's intellect can do in such a case as this ; I know we must depend upon the providence of God to direct our councils, so that they may result in benefit to that immense country, with its countless millions, and redound to his glory. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I thank you again for the attention with which you have listened to me on the present occasion ; I thank you for returning me again as your representative, and entrusting me again with ',your confidence, and I hope I may do nothing to forfeit that confidence. The fact that I still retain your goodopinion will be a stim u l us t o me to do faithfully my duty in that position in which I am now placed. (Loud cheers, amidst which the right hon. gentleman retired.) The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the Mayor. SPORTING NOTES. THE HAMPSHIRE GATHERING The aristocratic and delightfully pleasant meeting on the Stockbridge Downs will fail in none of its usual attractions on the present anniversary, and all the sporting peers and leading turfites will assemble to partake of Danebury cheer, and view the first class sport provided for the occasion. Considerable interest has been excited by the probable meeting of Marionette and Fisherman in the Stewards' Cup. The old horse has incurred a penalty of 71b conse quent on his Ascot victory, and the Danebury pet receives a maiden allowance of 41b. Their respective weights will therefore be 9st 71b and 6st 61b, and the riding will proba bly be entrusted to Wells and Bray. During last week the three-year-old was ipstalled favourite, but more recent market movements have brought the old horse into favour. The ridiculously easy manner in which he disposed of the field opposed to him at Ascot renders him formidable in any company, but with the great advantage in weights, and running over the home course, I must give a reluctant pre ference to Marionette. The next important feature in the programme is the Mottesfont Stakes, for which Hartley Wintney will make his second appearance this season,, but may meet a formid able opponent from the Danebury stable in Blue Ruin or Apollo. The entry also includes Chirp and the Venus filly, each penalised Ms ; two fair public performers in Brother to Rainbow and Buccaneer. The winner is therefore cer tain to occupy a formidable position in the Derby betting ; and, taking lay line from the Bath running, I anticipate witnessing the success of Hartley Wintney. The First Biennial, for 2-yr-olds, has a large entry, but the prior successes of Mainstone, who has 31b allowance, may frighten many opponents from the field. The horse has no engagement subsequent to this race, and I imagine he will come through with flying colours, and retire into obscurity until May next. a The Triennial, for 4-yr-olds', will probably include the following starters :—Fadladeen, Beacon, and Charles the Second ; and although I expect to find the favourite in Sir Joseph Hawley's horse, the winner will, I imagine, turn turn in Fadladeen. St. Clarence and Mouravieff will each find friends in the race for the Tenth Triennial, but the improved running of the latter at Ascot and Hampton induces me to think that Lord Strathmore will carry off this stake with his recent purchase. Tho majority of the stakes at Winchester have yet to close, but the meeting bids fair to form an interesting climax to the Hampshire meetings. The Original Hamp shire Stakes will probably result in a match between Sed - bury and Compromise, in which I doubt the ability of the first-named Lo concede two stone to Lord Ailesbury's horse. The nominations for the Grange Park Stakes include the public performers, Lupellus, Seclusion, the Venus filly, and the Maid of Orleans—the first three having all incurred penalties. Should Lupellus make his appearance on the spot, I fully believe in his ability to accord the weight to others; but in his absence, the Venus filly may prove her self superior to the remainder of the field. A FRESH MAN. NEWCASTLE RACES.—TutsDAY. A more unfavourable day as regards the weather for the opening of this meeting could not have occurred, a drizzling and wetting rain having continued with little intermission up to the time for the horses to start for the Members' Plate, when it began to fall in torrents. The Trial Stakes brought out a field of ten, Buttercup being the favourite at 7 to 4, and Shafto the next in demand at 4 to 1. Only these two were really supported, having the race in reality to themselves, the latter winning by a length ; the others were beaten several lengths. For the Selling Stakes, six horses were weighed for, but four only were at the post in time to start. Recluse opened at 7to 4 and closed at sto 4, and won very easily. The Corporation Plate would have been an exciting race, but heavy rain told against it much. The Trial Stakes of 5 sous each, with 20 added, for all ages. T.Y.C. Mr. G.

After several false starts, the lot got off upon moderate terms, Buttercup soon taking a strong lead, Mrs. Stowe Shafto, Layton, and Souvenir following in the order named, the last of all being the Beau. Upon turning into the straight, Mrs. Stowe and Shafto joined the favourite, but the race was soon left to Buttercup and Shafto, the latter getting his head in front at the half distance, and went in an easy winner by a length ; the others finishing in a clus ter, about six lengths from the second, excepting the Beau, who could never go the pace from the commencement. The Selling Stakes of 3 says each, with 30 added. T.Y.C. Recluse, by Hermit, sst 111 b (A.

This race was r un after the horses being more than a half an hour at the post in a drenching shower. A moderate start was ultimately made, the lot remaining together for near three quarters of a mile, from which point a most exciting race ensued. Duneany, who had been lying about the middle of the nick, came inside next to the rails, and won in the last few strides by a neck ; a head each separating the second, third, and fourth. Rachel tired at the finish. bliss Chatterbox's number was up, but she did not go the post. The Tyro Stakes of 10 sous. each, with 50 added, for two year-olds ; colts, Bst 71b ; and fillies, Bst 41b.

Yesterday, Mr. John Ifumphreys,,the coroner for East Middlesex, and a highly respect a bl e j ur y, assembled for the third time at the Waterloo Hero Tavern, Gough-street, East India-road, Poplar, re specting the death of a woman whose name was first given as Zebra Royal, aged 21 years, who died under very mysterious circumstances. It will be remembered that the deceased and her alleged husband had been lodging for about eight months at the house of. a Mrs. Allen, of No. 44, Gough-street, Poplar New Town. On Tuesday, the 31st ultimo, the deceased (who had been only confined five weeks) was seized with violent pains in the stomach and sickness. The landlady was called, when some brandy was administered to her, but the symptoms increased. The landlady asked deceased what she had been taking, when she re plied, " Only some coffee, which my husband gave me in a cup." The landlady asked her why she took it, when she said, "He made me drink it, although it was very bitter." She continued to get worse, when Alr. Webb, a surgeon, of Poplar, was sent for, and found deceased suffering from intense thirst, and a burning sensation in the throat. On Friday Mr. Royal left the house and did not return. The deceased continued to get worse, and died on Saturday morning, the 4th instant. The deceased, shortly before her death, said to the lodger, when speaking of the absence. of her hus band, " God forgive him." They lived very un., happily together, and frequently quarrelled. , Webb took possession of the vomit, and made a post-mortem examination of the body by request of the coroner, when the stomach and intestines ex hibited strong inflammation, which he wag `of opinion had been caused by some irritant poisons. Portions of the mucous membrane vierepnekered s and o t he r internal and blistered, b u t th e other organs of , t h e ,b o dy wnetreestqinueit e , healthy. nd were sealed up i n b ott l es and jars, and submitted to y, the care of D r. L et l b who found the presence T n b te e rn eo a n i tents of the intestines, stomach, portions of the body, of a powerful vegetable poison, but when the jury last met he had not had time to complete the analysis entrusted to him. On the present occasion it was proved that the he man Royal has a wife deceased was unmarried , and t h at her real name was Ziporali Wright. and two childre n livin g , and, at one time, had been employed at a chemists at Notting - hill. inr. Letheby was then re - sworn, and said, in addition to his former evidence, that he received two jars on the 21st instant from Mr. Webb, con taining portions of the intestines, &e., of deceased. He had made various tests, but could not find any solid poisons.. There were some traces of mercury, and the same acrid principle was detected as de scribed in witness's previous testimony. There were no traces of arsenic or other mineral poison, but on the further examination of the parts he de tected a powerful acrid irritant in the intestinal canal of an organic nature, which would account for the symptoms described by the witnesses. Juror—Can you describe the nature of that poison ? Dr. Letheby—l cannot precisely identify it, but it was more like cantharides than anything else. It was most probably administered in a soluble form. I have tried a portion of the liquid found in the stomach upon my lip, and it raised a blister immediately. I intend to try an experiment with it upon some kind of animal. I should have done so before, but I have been so much engaged in other matters. Sergeant Nunn, 72 K, stated that the man Royal was known in various parts of London, and had followed innumerable avocations. He had not been to his lodging since the death of deceased. A photograph containing the likenesses of tb.e man Royal and the deceased was here handed round to the jury, and Sergeant Nun n said that the accused had not bee n seen in public since the death of the deceas e d. T he officer /Ike' wise said that on the night the deceased was taken ill, a quantity of dirty liquid had been p u t into 'the wash-tub, which had b een taken away -by. a pet:son who gave a portion of it to a pig, w hich died sud- denly the same ni g ht . The foreman a nnounced that the j ury , careful consider a ti on of the evidence , h a d unani mously agreed t o a verdict of ~ wilful Mt irder for killing against Georg e F rederick Royal,ail cer a ; and slaying Ziporah Wright." The Coroner then issued. his warrant for 0 ie ap prehension an d comm i tta l o f the accused ,to .New gate to await his trial on the charga of mur, din. at the ensuing session of the Central Criminal (I.ourt. .. --~-~
