In the House of COMMONS, after a considerable quantity of viVate business had been gone through, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQDEU stated in reply to Mr. 'REVOR, that it was his intention to adhere to the day (Ist of :Aar), fixed for proceeding with the Church-rate Bill. With reference to the distress in the North of Scotland the Right Hon. Gentleman said that he deprecated discussion at 14esent. Government had despatched Sir J. HILL with power to aid in extreme cases. Mr. lIUME thought no funds ought to I,:tve been advanced by the Government, while the House was fitting, without its sanction. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE 4,uza said that Government had not in this matter acted cen t ,ary to the usages cf the House. The conduct pursued by the Commander of the - Forces, a....painst whom, it may be recollected Captain BERKELEY last ireek urged sornethinx in the nature of a charge of using his rilee for party purposes, formed - the subject of some explana i,,ry conver;ation between Lord G. • SOMERSET, Captain - .13%14KE1.111T, Mr. 1.-It'mg, and Mr. SCARLETT. The Ord.w of the Day for the Third Reading of the Irish "Alunicipal Bill was then read. The ilitr;e was thin, the de il,mte singularly dull, and the whole proceedings possessed little interest o:hcr than that necessarily inseparable front the mea :Aire itself. It will be seen that Mr. Gout.nuas, who opened 1 7 ve dcbat', like Mr. IlAmtt.ToY, Lord STANLEY, and the other 'Tories who opposed the Bill, were remarkably chary of coining ),ear the prieciiiies of the preposition, but found it More con ,enient to dwell upon mere matters of detail, wide of the real l i cestion at issue. At about I o'clock an adjournment of the ..ebate was curried try a mejority in favour of Ministers. `The debate on the Irish Municipal Reform Bill lixas again brought on last night in the House of Com inonA, and atij:ntrucd _at a late :tour to th . s There was little or no novelty in the arguments ad threcd, for- the field of controversy having beers al r?adv fully reaped, a few scanty gleanings were all that cou;tl have been exnee:ed. Mr. GOULBURN opened the discussion, and in the true, unleavened Tory :spirit, by urging as his chief objection to the Mu nicipal Reform measure, that it would prevent the Protestant Church from continuing to nourish in all its rank luxuriance throughout Ireland. It would be dctrimental, he said, to " that great national blessing"—curtail " the refreshing influence of Cler gymen"—therefore, he would have none of it. "To the Protestant Church," continued the Right Hon. Gentleman, " they roust look for all amelioration and improventent in the condition of , the It ish people"— that is to sav, Ireland must look to the intolerance of a minority, for the means of promoting the IxeVan: of a majority : The Catholic portion of the po pulation arc to be wholly left out of accotnt ; they are by no means to be legislated for ; their inte rests, and hopes and wishes, are not in the slightest degree to be taken into consideration ; it is the Irish Protestant and his Chtireli that are the only things worth an English State: an's reflection ; and it is through these, and these only, that Inland must work out her redemption. , Clever logic this, as Ratli cormack and Carrickshock prove beyond the power of refutation l We strongly suspect that Mr. GotiL-• BURN'S reasoning will have the tffect of nicking the Protestant Church more unpopular throughout Ireland than it is even at present ; by shoving the people there that it is the only obstacle that now stands be- tween them and Municipal Reform. But for this dis astrous Church, we would grant you, say the Tories, the, Reform you demand. But its abuses are dear to us ; its time-hallowed sinecures things not to be spoken of without veneration ; therefore, as your Mu nicipal Reform will go far to put the Establishment on a proper footing, we must take special care to prevent '•ou from obtaining it. Was ever such a suicidal course adopted as this ? Cannot the Tories see that it will do the Church more harm than even another tithe-carnage ? When once they perceive that justice is to be denied them, on account of this bloated Es tablishment, will not Irishmen declaim against it with more energy than ever? Will they not combine— confederate against it, and place its Clergymen in a position, compared with which their pre- sent is one of prosperity Lord STANLEY svho urged the same objection as Mr. GOULBURN, tleclared that another reason he had for refusing Mu nicipal Reform to Ireland, was, that she was not yet in a fit state to receive it., The pear was not yet ripe. No, nor ever will be in Tory eyes, 'till they regain office, when it will be at once discovered that then is the time for granting Ireland a sort of snug, quiet, half-and-half Corporate Reform, that shall be the name, but not the thing—the shadow but not the sub stance. Mr. BULWER well observed that there was but one of two courses to pursue—either to repeal the Catholic Emancipation and Reform Bills, or else to grant the Municipal measure. This is putting the question on its proper footing, and whatever the 'Tories may allege to the contrary, if they be not prepared to adopt the one course, they must perforce adopt the other. The debate will, we suppose, be brought to a close to-night, when we confidently ex pect a majority equal to the last. We observe in a Morning Paper, distinguished for i!s hostility to the Dissenters, and to the cause of civil and religious liberty, a report of a Church-rate meeting held at Reading yesterday evening, by which it is made to appear that the opponents of the abolition had it all their own way. Until we receive some account of this meeting from a more impartial and honest source, we shall suspend our judgment respecting it. All that is clearly evident from the report to which we have alluded, is, that a posse TIIg SUN, LONDON, T of pro-raters behaved in a most indecently uproarious manner, and succeeded by their violence in interrupt and make the necessary explanations verbally. Here there is ample room for political intrigue. The Journals contain an abstract of the report read in the Chamber of Peers by M. BARTHE, oue of the Commissioners for conducting the trial of MEUNIER. The substance of it has been so repeatedly before our readers, that we shall spire the re-perusal of a very stale, and now very common-place, record of crime. No unnecessary delay will take place i❑ the prosecu tion of the trial. It is confidently stated in the Carlist Journals that the young Duke of BOURDEAUX has left Goritz, and is now at the head-quarters of Don CARLOS at Tolosa. A report still more improbable is current in the same quarter. According to these same Carlist authorities, the Emperor NICHOLAS told M. de BAR RANTE, the French Minister, when communicating to his Imperial MAJESTY the intended nuptials of the 'Duke of ORLEANS, that he intended bestowing the hand of one of his daughters upon the grandson of CHARLES X. Of course no credit will be given to such a rumour as this ; but if true, France need give herself very little concern about it. The EMPEROR may bestow his daughters on whom he pleases ; but his influence in France would not procure for his son in-law the mayoralty of a fifth-rate municipality in any part of the kingddm. A Crown is totally out of the question. ig the proceedings. We are glad to see that the eloquent speech de livered by Mr. NORTHHOUSE, at the Lambeth Meet ing for the Abolition of Church-rates, has been pub lished in a cheap form, for general circulation. We highly approve of this mode of enlightening the minds of the . ignorant, and, removing the prejudices of the bigoted, on the Church•rate question. It is a powerful auxiliary to the Newspaper PresS at a moment like the present, when Church-rate meetings crowd so fast upon each other, that it is scarcely pos sible to notice them even slightly—much less to give at length the speeches delivered on these occasions. Mr. NORTHIIOUSE'S address will well repay peru sal. The author enters into the very marrow of the subject, bringing to bear upon it the united artillery i of reason, religion, justice, and a uthority—arraying against the unholy impost both the law and the Gos pel, denouncing it in the venerable names of LATI MER and BARROW, Of BURN, MILTON, and others. The following extract will give the reader a good idea of Mr. NORTHHOUSE'S animated style : " What is the chief cause of the dissent which exists ? It is not in doctrine, for nine-tenths of the different sects may find their own doctrines in the Articles of the Church. It is not in the liturgy, for, with the exception of the atrocious forgery rarely read, known by the name of the Athanasian Creed, nearly all Dissenters concur in admiring its beauty and piety, and acknowledge that they have nothing to equal it. It must be therefore not because of the principles, but be cause of the practices of - the Church that dissent has covered the land. Why do we dis Sent ? Because we believe that Christ's " kingdom is not of this world ;" because we acknowledge no supremacy, save that of our own Divine Master, and no code save that of the Eternal word—because we have not yet learned to solve the problem of a Christian church being able to serve at the same time both God and Mammon— because we— " Disdain to rest our Heaven aspiring wings, . Beneath their native quarry." (Great cheering.) ____ FRENCH FUNDS-YAI:IP. APPIL 7. Ilse per Cents.. 106 f 115 c. 103 f. 106 f. fiCc. Four per Cent., 98f. 95c three per Cents., 79f. 71'f. sc.

The new Cabinet was supposed to be complete on Sunday, though no announcement of its existence has yet appeared in the Moniteur. We assume the f ct from the following semi-official article which appears in the Journal du. Commerce of that day : " It might have been supposed this evening that the Ministry was on the point of making its debut; we, however, think it I more prudent to defer the announcement of its final formation until the ordinances shall have appeared in the Moniteur. Since yesterday morning overtures have been made by Mar lshal Soult to MM. Tiliers, Humann,• and Passy. The result of this conference was an agreement that they should insist upon a modification of the Appanage Law, the w ithdrawal of the Non- Revelation Bill, and as to the Spanish question, that it should be adjourned for the present, upon the express understanding, however, that a counter-revolution would not be permitted, to take place at Madrid. At 3 o'clock yesterday the above conditions were submitted to his Majesty, who, it appears, did not reject them. A second conference between the same parties was to -be held at 2 o'clock this day (Sunday) at the Tuileries. Mar shal Soult is to he President of the Council aryl Moister of War ; the pbrteleuille of foreign affairs is to be placed in the hands of M. Thi,:rs, M. Humarin to be at the head of the Finance Department, and M. Passy to be Minister of Com merce. Marshal Soult also paid a visit yesterday to M. Mon talivet, for the purpose of off,riae , him the portrfeuiile of the Home Department, and was still busily engaged in filling up , the ranks of the llinistrl•." BOURSE, HALF• PAST FOUR.-The French funds declined to day in consequence of the unsettled state of the Ministry, and reports of approaching disturbances. Incendiary placards were, posted last night on the walls in the Rues St. Martin and St. Denis, and the small ones branching therefrom, which are inhabited mostly by the working classes, and in which they were called upon to take arms and overthrow the Government. Those papers, which wore printed, were removed by the police early in the morning. The Spanish Funds were looking up: A letter from Ge neral Seoane, dated St. Sebasti.m, Ist inst., was shown on the Bourse, in which that officer announced that he had come thither to fix on a new plan or combined operations with Ge neral Evans, after . which he would immediately return to Bil boa. Tbc rumour of the arrival of the Duke of Bordeaux in Navarre was not credited. LAST PRICES Five per Cents*. 1(16f. 90c. Three per Cents. 7: f se. Rank Actions. 2, I2of. Bente de Naples, 93f.

We cannot entertain the idea of the permanence of a Cabinet compoeed of such discordant materials as M. THIERS and Marshal Souvr. Neither do wc think that THIERS, after the experience he has had, would consent for an instant to waive the consideration of the Spanish question—of the only question that saved him from being- cat aside, like a sapless weed, by Louis PHILIPPE. Had .it not been for the part he took, and the energy he displa:-ed, on the Spanish question, M. TufEns would ere this have sunk to rise no more. The ohject of the KING was to ruin him• - in public opinon, and for this purpose he flattered his TERO'S division were hourly expected at San Sehas tian.

A favourable wind saved the town from country ; in fact, several persons were convinced that a Ca Linet under the above auspices was actually formed. For our further damage. part, we cannot bring ourselves to believe that men of sober judgment, and who were 'not altogether deprived of common sense, could seriously think of proposing, in spite of the pre sant in the Chambers, a new system which, to judge front the 7citch we have given or the programme, would amount- to a complete abuaLmment of the glorious policy so i,erst,verin; - , , 1y followed during the last six years." As the KING's personal dislike of M. TIIIERS is well known, he was not applied to till the last extre mity. On Thursday M. GUIZOT was summoned to an interview with tire K t NG, and after much delibera tion, was charged by his MAJESTY to form a Cabinet. He first applied to his late colleague, M. MOLE, but he refused having any thing further to do with the Government. He next., waited on M. MONTA LIVET, who formally declined, but on grounds wholly personal. As a last resource he called on his old colleagjle M. TRIERS ; begged him to forget differences which he sincerely deplorzd ; and concluded by stating that he was authorised by the KING to propose to him the revival of the Cabinet of the 11th of October, in which he would receive the Portefeuille of Minister of the Interior, while M. GuzzoT himself would be content with the Depart ment of Public Instruction. M. -TmEns answered that his opinions were unchanged ; that he differed from the members of time Cabinet alluded to on the Spanish question ; that he did not approve of many of the laws brought forward by the late Cabinet, nor would he support them ; and that since his separation from M. GUIZOT he had formed poli tical connections which no office would tempt him to desert. desert.He expressed great personal respect for GUIZOT, but added that he could not again sit with him at •the same Council Board. M. GUIZOT then withdrew ; not without a suspicion that his ap plication to TRIERS was intended as a snare into which he failed to draw his late colleague. He next proposed to the KING what he really intended from the first—the formation of a purely Doctrinaire Mi nistry. The KING would not listen to this ; GUIZOT disappeared ; and Marshal SOULT was charged to make overtures to THIERS. The result, accord ing to time Journal du Commerce, is stated above. TRIERS has consented to unite with the Marshal in forming a liberal Government. It was, however, doubted in Paris, on Sunday, that THIERS would succeed in wresting from the KING the conces sions upon which only he will accept office. Even. then a dispute had arisen on a point of form. The KING had signified to THIERS, that he wished to see him at the Tuilleries. The ex-Minister refused to go unless summoned by letter, and to this the KING would not consent. As both continued obstinate, it was arranged that M. PASSY should act as go-between!

On the 30th the Cortes held a secret sitting to deliberate upon the state of affairs in the North. The debate was stormy, but nothing was done. Senor LoNzo brought forward a motion for inquiring into the Finance Administration, when he attacked MEN DIZABAL with great violence. It was supported by LOPEZ, who abused his late colleague in language the most offensive. The Finance Minister defended him self stoutly, and hurled defiance at the beads of his accusers, whom he 'denounced as the • enemies of their country. A division followed, when the motion of ALONZO was rejected by a large majority. This has had a good effect upon the public mind of the ca pital. The people repose unbounded confidence in MENDIZABA L'S financial ability and resources. LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S-OFFICE, APRIL 11, 1837.—Notice is hereby given, that his Majesty's Levee, in tended to be held to-morrow, is postponed till further orders. THE NEW POLICE.-The Middlesex Grand Jury took the opportunity, at the close of their labours, of bearing testimony to the excellent conduct of the new police. The Surrey Grand Jury have made repeatedly similar presentments ; and indeed the efficiency of the force, and the good behaviour of the men, are so generally known and admitted, that we can not conceive any object in making these notices, unless it is to annoy the old watchmen, and a Morning Paper, which so long denounced them as the harbingers of despotism. We hear Mr. Forrest has, from . some cause, as yet unexplained, left Drury-lane. We are also requested to state, that there is no truth in the recent report of his marriage.

" LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY, APRIL 9.—The steamer Shamrock, which was sent out, on Wednesday lest, to look for the New York packets now due, namely, the Pennsylvania and the England, was telegraphed off Holyhead, inward-bound, at six this evening. She will arrive early to-morrow morning, and there is some probability of her bringing the long-expected despatches." The general topic of conversation yesterday in the City was respecting the application to Government of the Liverpool deputies for the necessary relief of the merchants of that town, which is i cported to have been refused—recommending them to apply to the Bank for assistance.

On Sunday evenitig, a few minutes after six o'clock, a daring robbery was committed in Hyde- park, on the persons of Mrs. Anderson (a lady residing in Adam-street, Cumber land-place) and her daughter. They were crossing Hyde park from Kensington to their residence, and, when they had arrived near the large clump of trees between the Magazine and Cumberland-gate, they were suddenly attacked by two females, who snatched their reticules, containing a purse with one sovereign and six shillings, with which they escaped, taking the direction of the Magazine barracks. _ _ _ We regret to announce a most melancholy event which has taken place in India. A Major in a regiment of Light Dragoons having found a Cornet of the same regiment in an equivocal position with his wife, drew his sword and as saulted him with the evident intention of killing him, in which it is believed he thought he had succeeded ; for he imme diately retired to his own room and shot himself through his head. The delinquent, however, escaped with his life, and is now on his return to this country. For obvious reasons we suppress the names of the parties. Mr. Macvey Napier is to be appointed ono of the principal Clerks of Session in Scotland, in room of Mr. Rolland, who died a few days ago. Mr. Napier is emi nently qualified by his knowledge and habits efficiently to dis charge the duties required from him : his attachment to the Liberal cause has been long tiled. Mr. Napier is editor of the Edinburgh Review, and Professor of Conveyancing in the University of Edinburgh. His ability as a conveyancing lawyer peculiarly fits him for the situation, and we therefore congratulate the Government on having made an appointment so deservedly popular. The Bishop of Meaux, in France, has just dis• covered in his episcopal city a number of autographs of Bossuet. Amongst other things of the kind he has disco vered the original letters of a correspondence with Fenelon, of which only a few detached letters were known to be in existence. A boy of 16, named Tristram, a resident of Bally money, has lately executed a number of ingenious mechanical contrivances, and amongst the rest a steam-engine for churn ing, which he has succeeded in putting into full operation. He has also executed a beautiful model of the engine, which may be seen by the curious who visit Ballymoney.— Belfast Paper. Judge B-, once an excellent lawyer, had begun for some time to talk rather too much on the bench. Some body observed that he was growing so old that his nose and chin were likely to come into collision. " Yes," said Rose, " there have been a great many words between them of late." It is not the intention of the authorities to replace the 3d Light Dragoons in Ireland by another cavalry regiment, and the establishment in that country will thereby be lessened by so many officers and men.— United Service Gazette. On Wednesday night, about eleven o'clock, the " Northern Lights" were exceedingly brilliant. Never we believe, were they more imposingly grand. Instead of ra diating from the northern horizon, as in the case in common, they burst forth from th centre of the heavens, and radiated in all directions. The colour of the " streamers," too was un usual. Instead of the light yellow, we had a blood-red, beau tifully dazzling when reflected on by the more prominent stars over which they shone. At times, too, a rustling noise was heard, a circumstance which, though uncommon here, is quite familiar to those who inhabit more northern regions.—Aber deen Herald. EDGEWARE-ROAD MURDER. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. The trial of Greenacre and Gale was again commenced this morning at ten o'clock. The interest it excited had not at all abated. The Court was again crowded, and with nearly the same persons as yesterday. The Jury were entertained at the London Coffee-house during the night, under the charge of Mr. Harker, the officer of the Court. The first witness called was Michael Callow Brown, a police sergeant. On the 26th March he was at the station-hotise on duty. The two prisoners were brought there, and put into his custody. While he was getting the charge-book, he put them into separate cells. Ho visited Greenacre at half-past twelve, when he was lying on his back. A noose of a silk handkerchief was round his neck, and the other round his right foot. Witness found him stiff, and apparently dead. The surgeon came and bled him, and he recovered in about three hours afterwards. The first words he made use of were—" I don't thank you for what you have done. Why did you not let me die ? I want to die. D—n the man who is afraid to die. I am not." Cross-examined by Mr. PAYNE.—Was not examined be fore the Magistrate ; was in attendance, but was not called, He was sure of the words ; he had a perfect recollection 6 them. Thumas Tringham, Policeman 137, T.—Was in the cell with Greenacre on the morning of the Ist of April. He be gan talking about people coming in to look at him, and that this affair had caused more excitement than anything which had transpired for some time. He said, " Many people run away with the idea that this was moved in a cart." Wit ness said, " You mean the body." He said " Yes. It was not in a cart, but in a cab." Witness asked him whether it was on the same night that the affair happened. He said, " No, it was not; it was in the morning—on the Monday morning, I believe." Witness asked, " Was it after day light ?" He said, "No ; it was between the hours of two and five." He said there was a great deal of mystery about the head. People run away with the idea that it was thrown over the tunnel at Maida Hill, and there is no proof to the contrary. I don't want to satisfy public curiosity." He then began to ask him if Captain something was coming forward, as he had been informed that he was. If he did, he would provide himself with questions to ask him. He commenced writing, and, after some time, read over the questions he in tended to put. They related to a ship which he had sold, and cheated the owners. There was something also said about the cargo. Mathias Ralph, the lock-keeper, was recalled.—Put the bead he found in the bone-house, and locked it up in the same state as it was when it came out of the water. He gave the key to Mrs. Matthews. Mrs. Matthews, wife of the gravedigger, received the key of the bone-house from the last witness on a Friday. Gave it to Jas. Barrett on the same day. James Barrett received the key from the last witness. Went to the bone-house, and saw Mr. Birtwhistle there, who saw the head. Many persons came in and saw it, but no one touched it on any of the occasions when he opened the door. Mr. Fell, chief clerk at the Marylebone Office, proved that the statement made by Greenacre before the Magistrate was made voluntarily, and was signed by him after it was read over. [The statement was put in and read by the clerk of the Court. The statement made by Gale was also read. Both have already appeared in our columns.' Mr. Birtwhistle, a surgeon in the Mile End-road.—On the 6th Feb. he saw a human head at Stepney church-yard, which was taken out of the canal. He afterwards saw it at Mile Ead-road. It had not then- been altered in any way when he examined it the second day. He found that the head had received a blow on the light eye, the coats of which were ruptured, and the humours were let out. The surface round the eye was all black from the rupture of some small vessel. That must have been given before death. The face was cut in various places ; the eye remained in the head devoid of its humours. One of the lacerations was from incision, and an other was from contusion. He was of opinion that all the wounds except the eye took place after death. He examined the neck, and found it had been sawn through at the joint. A saw was put into witness's hands; he had applied the saw to the two bones and it answered the marks exactly. The head was removed to his house after the examination. He packed it in a small hamper and sealed it up, and gave it to two police.. men, and it was taken to Paddington Workhouse. He saw it there next morning with the seal unbroken. Witness and Mr. Girdwood then examined the head particularly. He then found that the right ear had a notch in it. They opened the head, and found_a wound on the back part of the head. There was no wound on the outside, but there was an effusion of blood inside. From the appearance of that wound he was of opinion that it hid been inflicted before death. He could not say that it necessarily had any connection with the ound in the eye, but if the head came in contact with any thing on receiving the blow on the eye, it would cause it. They fitted the head to the body, and found it belonged to it. The head was entirely exhausted of blood, and he thought it would not have had such an appearance had the throat been cut after death. _ _ . . Cross-examined—ln the case of sudden death the blood will flow while the body is warm. After death from a blow the body might remain warm for an hour or two. He had not made any experiments on the flowing of blood immediately after death. The witness underwent a long technical examine.- den of no interest. Mr. Girdwood, the surgeon of Paddington, had been in practice twelve years, and was parish surgeon in Paddington. He saw the head in question on the Bth of January, in presence of Mr. Birtwhistle, and other surgeons. His notes were given to the churchwardens, and he saw them published after in the newspapers. The witness then gave a detailed descrip tion of the wounds on the head. The black eye was a very extraordinary one for extent, and in its area were three wounds. la his judgment, the wound in the eye, and the bruise around it, were inflicted during life, and the three small wounds after death. Such a wound would require great force in the blow—it might have been done with a fist ; a dull weapon would scarcely have done, it, as there was no abrasion of the skin ; but it wus impossible to form any defi nite opinion as to how the blow was given. A blow struck with the force necessary to cause such appearances as those on the eye would most certainly deprive the party struck of sense at the moment, and for a time. He. could not say how long, because it would depend entirely upon the nervous system of the party. The party being female, it would very possibly deprive her of sense for time enough for other injuries to be inflicted. The appearances behind were the result of some injury inflicted. It was as if the head struck against some re sisting body. There was no anatomical connection between the injury in front and the appearances on the back of the head. The appearances in the eye certainly could not have been caused by the blow or injury on the back of the head. Whether the injury at the back of the head were caused by a fall or blow, or any other means, it could not have produced the appearances on the eye. The fifth hone of the neck was partly sawn through. I fitted the head to the trunk, and it corresponded exactly. The greater part of the anterior part of the bone of the neck had been sawn through, and the pos terior part was broken off. There was no appearance of dis location of the neck. The fleshy part of the neck seemed to have been cut with a sharp instrument. [A knife was here produced.] Such an instrument would have made the incision. The muscles of the neck which had been divided were very much contracted. Such an appearance would take place if the muscles had been divided after death. The con traction would continue as long as warmth remained in the body. The contractile power is strongest in a case of violent death at the moment of death, and becomes loss every mo ment. If much blood was lost at the moment of death, the contractile power would not continue so long. All the large blood-vessels of the head were empty. The same ap pearances were risible in the trunk. The terminations of the wound on the neck were ragged, as if the cut had not been firm, or as if there had been repeated small cuts. The first incision appeared to have been made on the left side of the neck, a little above the fold of the neck, and carried round to the right side, directly under the car. The next incision cut deeper into the muscles, and was lower down in the neck, so that the incision which cut through the windpipe is two inches lower down than the first superficial incision. The second cut appeared also to have cut through the carotid artery. By the COURT—What inference did you draw from these appearances ? Witness.—The cuts must have been inflicted either during life, or immediately after death. Cross-examined by Mr. Paica-I have described all the wounds that I observed upon the head, both internally and ex ternally. I don't think I have forgotten anything. I ex amined the brain. There were two large wounds on the head, and some smaller ones. Either a bruise or contusion, if in flicted with sufficient severity, will produce occhymosis. A contusion after death will not produce the appearance called ecchymosis. A bruise or contusion on the back of the head might or might not produce a lodgment of blood under the bone. A blow on the' back of the head might produce an in ' jury in front in the internal part of the head. If blood was effused into the anterior part of the brain, it would not be likely to discharge itself by the cellular membrane or tissue of the eye or nose. It is impossible to produce all the phenomena of ecchymosis on the dead body. The eechymosis of a bruise or contusion will produce an effusion of blood in all the tissues that have been interested in the blow or bruise. It will also produce an effu sion in all the membranes in the minutest blood vessels, which in health do not contain red blood—there is also swelling. There are some other appearances, but these three are the most important. lam the author of the report of "the exa mination of the bead of a female," in the Medical Gazette. If I stated that the cut was made on the neck, exactly in a line with the section of the vertebral column, it described exactly my idea of it. Where death is occasioned by any sudden violence, blood will flow from a divided ves sel for sixteen hours after death. I think that is the result of some experiments that have been made. The incision of the neck was not done as a surgeon would do it. lam certain a portion of the bone was sawn through. There was no appearance of injury inflicted during life upon the spinal marrow. There was not the slightest derangement of any of the bones of the vertebra. An accident producing pressure upon the spinal cord would cause death ; that might be disco vered by examination, or it might not, In cases of tetanus or hydrophobia there is no appearance that I know of produced upon the spinal cord, although the nervous system is affected by these diseases. I know of no injury to the spinal mar ro,v producing instant death which would not leave some serous or bloody effusion, or some indications of the le sion or injury inflicted, which would be visible upon ana tomical examination. I don't think the immersion of tl e head in water for eight or ten days would render the detec tion of the injury more difficult. A blow on the back of the neck may produce death, but I cannot imagine any case in which such a blow could be inflicted without leaving marks which would be very visible. In the case of a person balancing on a chair I cannot conceive how any effort to recover would produce such a violent muscular action of the muscles of the neck as to cans: death. I don't. think such a thing possible. If the ligament of the prncessus dentatus was ruptured it might occasion death. If such an injury had taken place I would have detected it at once on examining the head. Pulsation ceases immediately after death. I examined the trunk on or about the 29th Decensber," The appearances of the cut incisions were sail as to . i.na!lod ine to suppose that the other parts had been sepdrtits4 10 mediately after death, the muscles being very much contraete4. I also inferred that from the bloodless state of the body. Alutl , lation, I believe, to be a more offensive phrase than amputation , but it depends upon the sense in which it is used. I opened the • stomach, and ascertained by looking into it that there was no injury internally. I found in it some indigested food—it had a spirituous smell. The stomach was then .sent to Doctor Hunter Lane. The person appeared to me to have been a female of about five feet eight inches. Since then I have ascertained that she was an inch and a half shorter. She was well formed externally, strong, and in perfect health, as well as I could judge. lie-examined by Mr. BODKIN.--I am quite certain that the appearances about the eye were the result of an injury inflicter; during life. I found the swelling also, which is one Of the symptoms of ecchymosis. That puffing could not have b 8 occasioned by any injury inflicted after death. No blow or injury on the back of the head could have produced the ecchy mosis or other appearances observable about the eye. I never heard or read of any injury to the spine which caused instant death without leaving some external marks. Mr. BODKlN—Looking at all the circumstances, and after your minute examination of the body, what in your opinion was the immediate cause of death ? Wituess—On looking at all the facts, first, the very severe blow on the eye, and that inflicted during life, and looking at the corresponding brtkise on the back part of the head ; secondly, the dura mater having a little sanious effusion on it.---these groups of facts arc such as to lead me to say that such an injury would be mortal. But certainly if it had not been so, the cutting of the neck would have necessarily caused it. What do you allude to when you say such an injury ? Wit ness—l am alluding to the whole group of facts. That supposition is consequent upon the assumption that the bruise on the back of the head was caused by the blow on the eye? Witness—lt is. [These answers appeared to create a great seusati n in the Court]. James Hunter Lane—l am a physician and lecturer on che mistry. I examined the stomach of the deceased. On opener inn - the stomach I found it to contain a quantity of meat, ;Sikh I supposed to be either pork or beef, potatoes and some pastry. There was also a quantity of fluid, the whole mixture having a spirituous smell. The stomach in its appearance was healthy. At one part there was a slight redness. which generally accompanies the process of a healthy diges tbn. I could only come to the conclusion that the spirit in the stomach was neither whiskey nor rum. Upon ex posing either whiskey or rum to the atmosphere, it will lose its odour, but common gin will not. There did not appear to me to be sufficient spirits in the stomach to produco intoxication. The digestion appeared to have gone through half its progress. I should conceive the death to have been sudden. Henry Grey, examined by Mr. CLARKSON.—Took the stomach to Dr. Lane in the same state as I received it from Girdwood. Dr. Lane, cross-examined by Mr. PRlCE.—Spirits will evaporate more in the open air than in the stomach. The presumption is that nothing had been vomited. The stomach was not full by any means. I could not say what quantity had been digested, neither can I say what quantity had been in the stomach. It was about ten days after the 24th of December that I examined the stomach. That was a suf ficient time for the odour of the spirits to have considerably escaped. Mr. AnoLrnes—My Lord, that is the case for the prose cution. The Court and jury and prisoners then retired (1b minutes to 3 o'clock) for the purpose of taking refreshment. The case for the prosecution was closed at a quarter to three o'clock. There will be no witnesses called for the defence. ( We shall give the Conclusion in a Second Edition.) It will be seen by our Parliamentary Report, that no opposition will be offered by Government to the project so often and so strongly recommended, for permitting the manu facture of Foreign Grain into flour, for exportation only. There is, therefore, every reason to hope that such a measuro will soon pass the House of Commons. The agriculturists cannot possibly sustain any injury by its operation, as the bonded grain is to be manufactured under lock, and subject to the Excise supervision, while it is undeniable that great bene fits will be derived by the mercantile and shipping intercsts.-- - Devonport Telegraph. • The weather continues very winterly, and although we are almost in the middle of April, not a single indication of the " ethereal mildness" of Spring is to be seen or felt.
