Diffidence, or a !enact of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em- Ctter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comProsing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set taMent.

I did not tell.him I had done up the door until Thursd iy week, when I saw him at the Bridewell in the justice-room. Mr. Rush asked me a great many clues tions. He asked me if I had cleaned his boots on Tues day night? I said " Yes." He asked me what time? I said " Between five and o'clock.". He asked me if the kitchen do,r could be opened, and if any person could get in without my knowing it? I said " I did not think they cou!d." CORONER— When, did you you put the wedge in the door on Tuesday night? Witness -A. long, time before I went to bed. I never recollect putting the wedge in so badly that the door might be opened. CORONER—New,. have you had sny conversation with any person about this wedge? - Witness—Yes; I asked the team-man to say that he had seen the door done up with the peg. . „ CORONER—Men was this? Witness—On the Wed neiday morning, shortly after my master was taken away. CORONER—What was your reason for asking him such a favour? Witness—The reason I had for asking him was that if he stated he saw me put the peg in it would screen Mr. Itush. CORONER—DA you show him the wedge? Witness-- - - I did. CORONER—Did he soe you fix the peg? Witness—l don't know whether he did. CORONER—How would it screen Mr. Rush if he had said he had seen you fix the peg? Witness—Because it was thought he went into the back kitchen to get his boots, and I thought if he (the team• man) said he saw the peg fixed as well as .I it would much assist him. CORONER—But how could his not getting the boots screen him? Witness—Why, if he had not got his boots during the night it would have screened him. CORONER—HOW so? Witness—Because he hadn't them. I had no conversation with Rush about the wedge. CORONER—Nor conversation at all? Witness—When he was going away in the gig he said—" Now, you go away; I shall send for you and that lady" (meaning Mrs. James). _ _ _ The CORONER here said that an important change had transpired in the evidence, for;it was now proved that the boots could have been removed. Mr. Superintendent Witherford, of the Norfolk con stabulary, was next sworn—l have been to Potash-farm with Savory. I had the wedge which I now produce, and which Savory admitted he had made and used for the purpose of fastening a door from the kitchen into the back kitchen. I desired Savory to fix the wedge into the door in the manner he had used to do it. He did so, and I being on the same side, placed my finger on the latch, and it opened immediately, without any difficulty. It was put in a second time by Savory, and it was as easily opened on the other side. I then asked Savory, if that was his usual way of fastening it ? He said, " Yes it is." I remarked to him how easily it could be opened. He said, " I see now it can be opened from the other side." Joseph Howes, a constable in the Norfolk constabu lary, was ,next examined—On the 30th of November I assisted in the search of Potash-farm. Amongst the things I searched was a writing-desk, in which I found a quantity of letters. There was one dated April 28, 1848, signed "J. B. Rush," directed to "J. B. Rush jun., Potash-farm, Wymondham," bearing the London post mark. There were expressions in the letter show ing an ill-feeling towards Mr. Jenny. Another letter contained opprobrious epithets on Mr. Jermy, such as " the -- Recorder." Other letters were found written in the same style; all tending to show the feeling that existed towards Mr. Jenny. I cannot produce the let ters, having given them into the hands of Colonel Oaks, the chief constable. The CORONER deemed it necessary that the letters should be produced in order that the jury might have an opportunity of ascertaining what amount of malice they contained towards the unfortunate gentlemen. He should therefore issue a summons for the attendance of the Rev. Mr. Wilson, to produce them at the next meet ing pf the jury. Colman, farmer, said—l occupy Stan field-hall Farm. lam acquainted with Potash-farm. At the request of the magistrates I have measured the distance from Stanfield-ball to Potash-farth by the pathway across the field. It is within one furlong of a mile. I have seen Mr. Rush use that path in going to the ball. The last time was about a month since. Rush then spoke to me, and said he was a trespasser, being at the time on my land. He said, it was the nearest way to Stanfield-hall, and he invariably made use of it when he went to see Mr. Jermy. Mr. Philip Bowgen, glazier, of Wymondham, said, on the night of the 28th of last month, hearing of the mur der at Stanfield-hall, I proceeded to the spot. On reach ing the entrance I saw the elder Mr. Jermy lying' dead in the porch; and on going into the mansion 1 saw also, Mr. Jermy Jermy lying dead in the passage. I assisted in removing the bodies into the drawing room; and on returning, in the passage leading from the hall staircase to the butler's pantry, I discovered, lying on the ground, near the skirting board, a ramrod, which I produce. (It is rather massive, much larger than those ever mod with holster pistols, made of mahogany and tipped with brass.) No other witness being in attendance, a consultation took place between the Coroner and jury as to the pro priety of again adjourning the investigation. The CORONER said, in a case of so grave and atroc;ous a character it required the greatest vigilance in obtain ing all the evidence that could possibly be collected. lie therefore suggested that the inquiry should Im adjourned for another week. The jury acquiesced, and the proceedings closed at a at hour. We regret to state, on the authority of the medical attendant, that the unfortunate Mrs. Jermy and her maid, Elizabeth Chestney, are not yet out of danger. In the course of the inquiry Mr. Cann communicated to the reporters the intention of the magistrates to make the court public on the last examination of the accused Rush, when all the depositions taken by them will be made known. Although a most vigilant search has been made by the police and a large number of auxiliaries since the night of the murders, not the slightest trace of the fire arms of the assasin has been discovered. SIR CHARLES NAPIER. (Froth the Cheltenham Examiner.) • Sir Charles Napier, Lady Napier, and suite, left Dub lin en route for Cheltenham or. Wednesday mornjng. Their embarkation 'at Kingstown, in the. Cambria, was quite in keeping with the hearty reception they have met with during their. brief s'ay in Ireland. Early es the packet started,- half past eight A.M. a-number of their friends, attended them to beach, where_ they we: e:re. celved by Captain Kean, R.N., and Captain Hull. RAN., of the Dragon frigate. On the Cambria putting off trom the shore, three hearty cheers and one cheer more siere given by .the groups on the quay for the hero of nany tighis. The cheering was unsparingly responded td by the crew of the C am b r i a , a nd on that vessel reaching the Dragon, which was anchored in the harbOur, 'the entire crew of the frigate, manning the rigging, took up 'the cheer, and re-echoed it as only British saqurs could do. . The gallant officer arrived on Friday at his resideke, Lulli. - rid-sal:tare, and intends, we believe, prolonging: his stay for some months in Cheltenham. On the Saturday before his departure, Sir Charles ,vas w in fl v i i c te h d t b o y ok th pce e i3 Lim:r ih i t ek garrison to a military banquet, great eclat in the commodious mess-room of the New Barracks. The colours of the-- 3d Buffs, 47th Regiment, and 92d Highlanders, were dis played on the walls of the magnificent apartment, which was brilliantly lighted, and had an imposing effect, Fronting the chair was the • appropi hate motto, " Meea nee, Hyderabad," with the 'royal crown at top. Colonel Cox, Assistant Quartermaster-General of the disttict, presided. In the course of the evening, Sir Charles Napier divelt upon the commercial benefits which mint result to Giteat Britain from the subjugation of the Punjaub:--" Oen tlemen;" said he, " the geographical position of those countries is this—tbe Punjaub is like a lady's fan (and a very pretty one too for the Queen of England), the 'five rivers forming the sticks of the fan. Now, these riveris all join their waters at a place called Mittun-Kote, which may be called the pivot, and whence the whole flow intone grand river to the ocean. There are about 2,000 niiles of - Water-carriage thus presented to British commerce, and the countries through which these flow are rich. But this is not all. This great line of water-carriage from the Hymalayas to the sea, a nd runn i ng north and south, is crossed by a land-line of commerce, running from the west to east from Herat to Delhi, and other great cities of India. This land line crosses the water line at right angles near the Mittun-Rote. These clara vans crossed the Indus. Now, gentlemen, while! the Ameers ruled Sinde, they being hostile to commeirce, and possessing both banks of the Indus for about !400 miles up the stream from its mouths, effectually shut up the whole course of all these great rivers, to their sources amidst the roots of the Hymalaya mountains. The conquest of Sinde opened the Indus and all its' tri butary rivers to their sources, and thus not onls% are they free to commerce, but the Indus which was before an impediment to the transverse land line of commerce that had to cross it, now becomes a help, anqup plies those car a v ans w i t h steamers at Mittun- -ote to take their loads in exchange for British manufactures, which will thus be carried up those great rivers, anti then spread over all those countries through which they run, and into Central Asia by the caravans arriving at Mittun-Rote. These things are not yet done, geritle men, but the conquest of Sinde by Lord Ellenborough has opened them to British enterprise, and they will be done in due time. The conquest of Sinde was the 'first step—that of the Punjaub will be the second—and there is every reason to believe that it will soon be annexed to the dominions of the East India Company." Later in the evening, when returning thanks for " Lord Gough and the Indian Army," the Gallant General observed that—" He would here take leaste to contradict the report made of a speech of his at a dinner given to him at Cheltenham. In speaking of the Indian army he was made to say he loved the Indian army better than the Queen's army. Da was said that tI4 re porters, not having been invited to that dinner, ;mis stated the speeches. What he (Sir Charles) said !was, that, although he could not be supposed to be so Much attached to the Company's army as to the Queen's, to which he belonged, he still honoured and loved the Indian army, This was a circumstance scarcely worth explaining, but not having been correctly stated in the English papers, ho thought it would nbt be out of place to advert to it. The Indian army was one of'the finest he ever saw. It consisted of 300,000 troops, cavalry, artillery, and infantry. Led on by British officers, it was equal to the British army in all things but in the physical strength of the. men. Equal in arms, ap pointments, and discipline, it• would . follow the British troops' and stand by them in every danger.—(Cheers.) It was superior to every army but the British Until the French, and equal in number to those of the contir4nt of Eutipe. The moral feeling, the high spirit instilled into the Indian army by British officers, and the unifoina system which pervaded the whole, prepared the Indian army for any conflict. As for its commander, IJord Gough, it would be presumptuous in him (Sir Charles) to speak. The war iu China, and the battles of the Sutlej spoke for themselves,' and at the head of such an army his Lordship would, no doubt, subdue the Punjauh. Already had that precious diamond called the Koh-i -noor" or mountain of light " been taken possession 'of, and he (Sir Charles) hoped it would be sent to the Queen, of whom may we say that her:diadem is a mountain of light—with which on her head, and her throne on a Irock, she may defy the world."—(Loud applause.) A llErto IN THE RANKS.—Sir C. Napier gave lately the following note to a private soldier who fought at Guznee:—" London, Sept. 10, 1848.—1 n the war against the Hill tribes in Cutch Gundowa, India, during the year 1845, a party, under :the command of Sergeant Power, of her Majesty's 30th Regiment, stormed a hill or preci pice at a place called Trukihiee. This party consisted of 16 men, including the sergeant, 12 of whom reached the summit; of these 12 there were six killed, and two severely wounded—the one was Private Rowan, the other Private Maloney, the bearer of this. He reached the summit, saved the lives of Private Burke and Private Rowan, slew two of the enemy, and then got away desperately wounded. I was not present in person at this gallant fight; nor do I give the above account from the lips of Julia Maloney himself—l take it from the written report made me on the day of the action by his commanding officer, who saw the whole transaction, as did a great part of the forces under my command, and I thanked John Maloney in general orders. N.or were the two men whose lives he saved ordinary men. They had ascended the precipice together; Anthony Burke shot one of the enemy, bayonetted a second, and, clubbing his musket, dashed out the brains of a third, but broke his musket in pieces; he was then disarmed and over po tiered, when Maloney saved his life! The other man, Rowan, had driven his bayonet through a Belooch, when the latter, with desperate courage, unfixed Rowan's bayonet, drew the weapon out of his own body, and plunged it through that of Rowan! H• then fell dead, and Maloney- saved the life of Bowan; for this small party of twelve were attacked by eighty picked Be loochees. who lay in ambush for and suddenly fell upon them. I have entered at large upon this history of the brave John Maloney, because I think it gives him claims upon the kindness of his countrymen. * * -* Having thus given my reasons, I conclude by recommending this gallant youth to those who can serve him.—C.

Wood, were driving a light cart by Chatham Dockyard wall, they came up to a spot where a man was lying across the pathway groaning heavily. They alighted; and on raising him up, they found that be was covered with blood. They immediately laid him down again and ran for assistance; and on their return with Mr. Weekes, surgeon, they discovered that he had received a gun-shot wound in the left side close to the heart, and that one of the ribs was fractured. He died almost immediately. Near to the wall was lying his hat, and also a pistol,-which had been just discharged. The deceased must have stood upright against the wall when be shot himself, as the marks of blood are distinctly visi ble. On his person were found some small pebbles, and a powder flask,' containing powder; there were also some letters from a young lady residing in the neigh bourhood, to whom he was paying his addresses. The name 'of . the deceased is James Pooke, aged 23 years, and he was employed in the office of Mr. Stevenson, in Chatham. It is stated that the deceased is respectably connected. The cause of his committing the rash act is a love affair, the parents - Of the young lady having in terfered and forbidden him the'house. SUICIDE or A GUARDSMAN.—Yesterday morning Mr. Bedford, the coroner, held an inquest at the Glou cester Arms, Rochester row, Pimlico, upon the body of Isaac Phipps, aged forty-one, a private in the 2d batta 4ion- of Grenadier Guards, who committed suicide on Tuesday last at the Military Hospital, by cutting his throat with a knife, which he had secreted in his bed. Deceased had been twenty-two years in the reg iment, and was much respected b y hi s comrades and su periors for his steady and soldier-like conduct. For the last sixteen years. he had been subject to severe attacks of bronchitis, which . caused him the must intense agony. The pain which he suffered on these occasions was SO severe as to deprive him of all self-control. He fre quently stated that he would prefer death to such suffer ing, Under these circumstances, Mr. Brown, the regi mental surgeon, had directed that he should not be left alone; but during the temporary absence of his nurse he succeeded in accomplishing his fatal object. These facts haring been deposed to, the jury found a verdict of " Temporary insanity." TIIE:CATHEDRAL AT BRlSTOL.—Considerable ex citement was created at Bristol on Sunday, owing to the following circumstance:—lt appears that the Dean and Chapter had recently come to a resolution to give up chanting the service in the cathedral, and as it was un derstood that Sunday was the day when the new prac tice was to be attempted, and as it was also intimated that one of the residentiary canons had expressed his intention to chant the service as usual, considering it his duty, there was a strong muster of the inhabitants determined to support him by chanting the responses. The cathedral was crowded, but it appears that some compromise bad been entered into. The Rev s Canon Sartis read the service without chanting, but the choris ters appeared in their gowns and chanted the responses as usual. The inhabitants generally are very averse to haying this old custom abolished. .. ~~~ ~~-~~-~ NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

A dividend at the rate of 4 per cent. clear of income tax for the half-year ending the 30th of September last, was declared at the meeting of the Peninsular and Ori ental Steam Navigation Company held yesterday. On the topics contained in the report, which were various, a long discussion ensued, but, although points of opposi tion were mooted connected with the administration of the undertaking, especially in reference to the contract made with the managing directors, nothing tangible was established, and the whole of the explanations given were received by the great majority with unanimous approval. Among other subjects brought under notice was that of the insurance of the company's fleet. and the report treating of this question, as well as of the funds identified with repairs and depreciation, contained a suggestion to the effect that the board, after giving the matter careful consideration, believed the time had now arrived when the proprietors might prudently, and with advantage to themselves, discontinue, on the termination of the exist ing policies, the further payment of premiums to under writers." This recommendation, which was generally mentioned in terms of approbation, was also carried in the shape of a resolution. The debate being of a very discursive character, and little opposition being presented to the directors, inasmuch as the satisfactory announce ment was made tbat, notwithstanding the disastrous events of last year, the company had not in the remotest degree suffered, but had, on the contrary, compared with the corresponding period of the previous financial year, improved, both as rec , arded income and profits, its ulti mate tendency was wholly congratulatory, and although an attempt was got up against the confirmation of the election of new directors, the amendment proposed was, in the end, left in a considerable minority. The directors state in their report that, owing to the depressed position of monetary affairs, they have hitherto refrained from increasing their capital account by the issue of new shares, but they now consider that the period is approaching when they may be called to raise such additional capital on advantageous terms. The transit through Egypt continues to be conducted in an agreeable manner, but Abbas Pasha, the successor of Ibrahim Pasha, has signified that he shall make fur ther important improvements in the transit arrange ments. The suspension of steam eommunicatton with Italy, the discontinuance of the conveyance or the India mail on the 3d of the month from Southampton, and the offer made to the Government for establishing steam communication between Singapore arid Sydney, were circumstances severally alluded to, in sills - of Which the directors contend they have acted so far as they were concerned, in a spirit of good faith both to the public and to their constituents. The ♦acancy in the committee of management occasioned by the death of Mr. Francis Carleton, it is intimated, will in all probability be filled up by Mr. Allan, formerly the company's secretary ; and as his appointment will be regulated on a reduced scale of remuneration, the proprietors will, it is asserted, by this means derive a considerable pecuniary advantage. Adverting to the loss of the Ariel on .the, coast of Italy, it is mentioned that her original cost, about two years since, was 39,0001., and that she was insured to the ex tend of 15,0001. The accounts are in future to be open to the shareholders for examination a week before each meeting. _ _ _ The steam fleet of the company, which is represented as being in efficient working condition, now consists of 23 vessels, ranging from 400 tons and 150-horse power to 1,800 tons and 520-horse power each. Three other vessels are also in course of construction, one of 900 tons and 350 horse power, andt wo of 1,250 tons and 450- horse power each, but as the contemplated extension of the company's operations in the Indian Sea and Medi terranean is for the present postponed, favourable ar rangements have been made for the sale of the Bombay and the Vectis, so soon as they shall have been com pleted. _ - The accounts of the company for the year ending the 30th of September last, placed before the meeting for the inspection of the proprietors, showed— ' " That after defraying the ordinary disbursements of the year, including the current repairs and insurance of the company's fleet, and carrying to the insurance fund 19,9001., as the balance of premium on the estimated amount of floating property not insured by underwriters, there remains to the credit of the profit and loss ,on the year's operations ... £140,531 " From which deduct the following items ; " Depreciation of 5 per cent. on the pre- .se sent estimated value of the company's • ships for annual depreciation ... 40,000.. " Amount paid the managing directors on account of 5 per cent. commission, or premium on net profits, for the twelve months ending the 30th of September ... 2,700 " Reserve to meet balance of expenses ••• , in placing four steam-ships on the India and China stations ... .. 7,000 " Also the dividend paid for the six months ending 31st of March, 1848, which amounted to ... ... 39,003 " There remains available for the divi dend now about to be declared, and to meet outstanding claims ••• 451,828" On the subject of an efficient cooperation with the Eastern Archipelago Company, the managing directors of the Peninsular Company have stated that they are willing to afford the Eastern Archipelago Company all the support in their power, consistent with their charter of incorporation. They have also offtled to contract for supplies of Labuan coal for the depots of the Peninsular Company at Singapore and Hong-Kong: AM .AN AND TWO HORSES DROWNED.—.O/1 Sa turday about one o'clock, a person named Crawford, re sident in Musselburgh, observed a lad with two horses and carts approach the Esk from the Fisherrow beach, Opposite the embankment to the north-west of the gas work, with the evident intention of crossing the river. As Crawford was aware that it was impossible to cross that part of the river, the tide being in, he call loudly to warn the unfortunate carter. As the latter did not ap pear to hear him, Crawford rushed towards the river, where he found the carter within about ten feet of the Musselburgh bank, but unable to proceed farther, the water being about seven feet deep, and the bank preci pitous. The carter had tied the reins round his waist, and was clinging to the neck of one of the horses. Craw ford unfortunately could not swim, but he encouraged the carter with assurance of safety, as soon as assistance (which he had sent for) arrived. The horse, however, in struggling to get free from its harness, was thrown on its side, and the carter underneath. A crowd had by this titre collected, and ropes being procured, a man named Hunter, succeeded in reaching the carter, but life was extinct. The body, with one of the horses and carts, were got ashore at the spot; the other horse and cart being carried out to sea, were observed by a fishing vessel, and towed into Morrison's Haven. The carter, whose name was Waddell, was in the employment of Mr. Smith, Crosgate Haugh, and was about 16 years of age. He had been on the beach for the purpose of pro curing gravel. Great caution shoull be observed by carters in crossing the Esk, which is occasionally much swollen by rain and by the tides, while the bridge is so convenient and accessible from all points, as to render the fording of the river unnecessary.—Caledonian Mercury.

"That the seizure of the Sattara territory by the East India Com pany, by virtue of a construction arbitrarily put upon the said treaties by the stronger Of the two contracting parties, would be a proceeding repugnapt to every principle of justice, a breach of the law of nations, and calculated to cast a foul stain upon the character of that Com pany and the British Government."

[AnlizitTiStstaxt.]—Dropsical Affections Cured by Holloway's Pia—The causes of this direful disease are various; it is often engendered by the morbid state of the system, whereby the .free circulation of the blood is impeded, or it may originate from some preceding complaint. The first thing to be done in order to effect a cure, is to remove any obstructions by purifying the hlood, - and causing the dhcharge of the superabundant fluids frOna the body; for this purpose take Holloway's Pills es they possess such cleansing properties that the dropsiCal patient is gradually restored to health, and the whole 'frame is permanently renovated.

FIELD HALL. ADJOURNED CORONER'S INQUEST. WYMONDHAIII, WEDNESDAY. , —The inquiry before Mr. Press, the Coroner, relative to; ,the . punks of Mr. Jenny and his sen, was resumed yesterday afternoon at the King's. Read Inn, in this town. The interest which had inarktd .the previous stages of the proceeding.; ap p7ared to .1)o undiminished. The,inquest room was thronged. , The CORONER, After briefly noticing the evidence that had been already adduced, said, that referring to the evidence of Emily. James, who spoke of Rush proceeding upstairs and going put on Tuesday evening, the state ment of the lad Savory might not appear satisfactory as to the position of, the boots. Again, in Emily James' statement. where she romarked, that when Rush ap peared agitated she thought he had, been annoyed with poachers, it did not appear very clearly that anything had transpired 'respecting poachers previously. For what they knew, he might hare been in the habit of going out in the evening for poachers, and it was pos sible that it might have been a mere blind as to what was really intended. These were important points. and he only mentioned them in order that the jury might di rect their attention to diar peculiar bearing. In Mrs. James's testimony, as it has been published, an important fact - was omitted, in consequence of re porters not being allowed' to be present during her ex audnationL-Viz., alit when Rush returned on the Tues d evening e;she theught; from hi s ag it a t e d manner, that he had had an affray with :poachers. John Chaplain; keeper of the 'lntwood Railway gate, on the Eastern Counties 'Railway, was - the first witness called, and gave the'following evidence :—On Saturday, the 25th of NoveMber, before the murders were com mitted, Mi;Rusheame through my gate. He was driving a horse and *gig, kid as 'he passed me he stopped and said; Have you Seen old Mr.larmy go through .this morning ?". I said, "NO ; I have not seen him this morning." Rush answered, "I thought this was the wily he came." I then said, "Young Mr. Jermy often comes this way, and I thought this . was the way old Mr. Jermy came.' lam na sure that I have seen old Mr. Jenny slime, but he often came that way from Norwich. This conversation took place . between ten and eleven o'clock in the morning.... Robert 'Smith, an intelligent 'boy, was next called—He said, I am twelve yeaiS of age, and reside with my mother at "Jessie. I hive lived with Mr. Rush during the last two months. My occupation was to scare crows, and I half., littered some straw on the footpath leading from the dwelling of Potash-firm as far as a turnip-field in the direction of Stanfield-hall. ConoNta Now, be careful how you answer me. Tell me where you commenced to litter the straw, and where you left off. Witneis—l began at the turnip field gate. CORONER—Not from the door of the farm-house ? Witness—No, sir. CORONER—Was it along a road, or footpath through a field? Witness—Along a footpath. I commenced at the gate, and littered the straw through the fifteen-acre field (turnip field) as far as the turnips went. I finished at thv baiik of the twenty-acre field called " The Look," which leads to Stanfield-hall. • _ _ CORONER—When did you do this? Witness—On the Tuesday the murdi+ri were committed. CORONER— Who told you do so? Witness Mr. Rush. CORONER—At what time? Witness—About twelve o'clock. There had been straw laid down before, and Mr. Rush said to me, " Litter the straw fresh where it is dirty—the worst of the places." CORONER —Did you ever lay any straw down before ? Witness—No. While I was laying it Mr. Rush came to me and said, " Litter it thin; don't lay it very thick." I commenced to scatter it about twelve, and left off in the middle of the afternoon. Mr. Rush pointed out the places where I was to hiy it. CORONER—How long did Mr. Rush stay with you when you were littering the straw ? Witness—About half an hour. He came 'at one o'clock, and looked at what I was doing. CORONER—Have you seen Mr. Rush walk over this straw before ? • Witness—l have ; but I don't know where he went. The field was not so dirty where the straw was not littered. Young 'Mr. Rush was my master. Ile paid me my Wages. lam certain that old Mr. Rush never ordered natYto lay the straw before. I hare all along been alluding to the old Mr. RUA, and not the younger one. The fifteen-acre field was the last field on the farm. It adjoins Mr. Chltman's. . _ A juror—Was any stock kept in the turnip field ? Witness—There was not; the stock was in a field nearer the farm. lam sure there was none in any field beyond the fifteen-acre field. It was the last on the farm. (The straw along the footpath was strewn to the length of about three furlongs, and the commencement of it is between two hundred and three hundred yards from Potash-farm.) Solomon Savory, the lad in the service of the supposed murderer, who has been under the surveillance of the po lice since his former examination, was then brought into the inquest•room. The CORONER informed him that he had been sent for to correct some discrepancies which appeared in the evidence' he had previously given. Before he (the coroner) asked him any questions, however, he must impress upon him the necessity of telling nothing but the truth. Savory, who is a tall, vacant-looking lad, nodded his lead. The CORONER then proceeded to read the evidence he had already given. The effect of it was—and it is ne cessary to give it in order that his additional testimony may be clearly understood—that on the evening of the Tuesday on which the murders were committed he saw Rush come home, shortly before six o'clock, and that he pulled his boots off. He cleaned them and put them to dry in the back kitchen, and then locked the door and put the key in his pocket. He went to bed between eight aad nine o'clock, and the next morning found the bouts in the same position. (With regard to his statement respecting the boots and his locking she kitchen-door, a remarkable admission was made by Rush, when before the magistrates, in his cross examination of the lad Savory. Rush said, "Now Savory, did you clean my boots on the Tuesday night?" I did." " Did you not place 'them by the side of the kiln in the back kitchen to dry?" " Yes I did." " That was between five and six o'clock, was it not ?" y„.„." • e Did you not f i nd them in the same place when you got up the next morning?" "I did." "You and the maltster sleep in the room just above ?" "Yes, we do." "Is it possible for a person to have gone into the back kitchen that night and removed the boats with out your hearing him?" "It is impossible." "Do you think, if a person had gone in while you were asleep, he would not have awoke you?" " Yes, he must have done so." The Rev. - Mr. Wilson, the magistrate, not having taken down the cross-examination, requested it should be noted. The magistrate said, he did not thinklit had any bearing on the case. Rush replied, " I think it of great importance it should be taken down, for the police would make one believe that somebody had taken the hoots away and worn them, and placed them in the same position, but Savory shows that could not possibly have taken place without his -knowledge of it.") The lad Savory was th en subjected to a very rigid examination, which lasted -- upwards of four hours, throughout which he displayed much hesitation, and it was evident that he answered the questions with con siderable care. CORONER — You tell us that you cleaned Mr. Rush's hoots on the Tuesday afternoon? Witness—l cleaned his boots between five and six o'clock—both pair were wet; the heavy ones, however, not so much so. I only washed them, and did not black them. I wiped both pair I. do not- remember if Tuesday was a wet or lorry day. .. CORONER—Did you always fasten the door:you have previously mentioned? Witness—No; why I fastened it on this night was because there were only Mr. Rush and Mrs..Jatnes in the house. It was a dour between the back kitchen and the kitchen; and I fastened it by putting a wooden peg on the top of the " snack" or latch. I have since seen it, and I find it can be undone from the kitchen side, notwithstanding the peg. I made the peg purposely to secure the door. • CORONER—Had you any direction to make it? Wit ness—l had not. 1 received no ordets about fastening sthe door. I did not do it every night. Conostert—Was Mr. Rush in the habit of going out after dark? Witness—No. CORONER—Did you ever hear of his going out afte r poachers? Witness—No, not to my knowledge. Examination continued—l never knew of the boots being dirty atter they had been cleaned' on the previous night. If the boots had been used, they must have been washed and put in the same position. Before I came down on Wednesday morning I had not :spoken to Mr. Rush until after I was called up by the police. When Mr. Rush C2OlO down, after I had called him he asked me what was the matter ? I said I did not know. Nothing was said about the boots. I looked into the kitchen, and saw the.boots as I had left them on the previous night. I never saw any pistols in the house. I have seen guns. CORONER—What reason bad you for making a peg for the door? ..Witness---I bad no particular reason. It was about five. or six inches long, and as broad as my two fingers. It was more of a wedge than a p eg . I had no trouble to make it. I got the wood out of the cart I,,dge. I made it about a week before the T ues d ay. I well remember fitting the peg on the Monday and Tues day night. It was made of light coloured wood or a pit ce of .deal, and was longer when I first made it than it 1.; now. I shortened it to fit better. RONER—When was that? Witness —After the murders had happened. On the Wednesday or Thurs day afterwards I dirtied the part that I shortened, CORONER—That was after Rush had been taken into custody.? Witness—Yes, after he had been taken into custody... • CORONER—What did you do with it afterwards? Wit ness—l carried it away. in my pocket. _ CORONER—Did any one :till you to put it in your Witness—No; no one told m e to do so, nor to pocket? do anything with it. COisON E a—Did you. ever carry it in your pocket be fore? Witness No.. . _ Examination continued—l am sure I slept in the house on Monday and Tuesday nights. My reason for pegging the door was because no one wanted to come in. There is a door into a passage which Mr. Ru s h h a d done up that day, and which prevented my going into the pan- ; `; ~~~` 'i . 4 Lit; ; V i ~ . . . - - \ ' , 4' . ..';. 4.- - •' . . —,. - ,__(--------, '',./i v ,__.-v _.--- 7-7?
