Be brought a line, and I told him "TO Mkt; it to 'Mr: Chachlick. • Coroner-1F hen was it that -Mr. Chaddick said, he Wished 'you had not ict him hnOW any thing about it ? Witness—l don't know whether it was when he brought 111 r. Cox to inspect the body, or before. • Coroner—Was any other part Of yourfamily at Manchester with your son ? Witness—No: Coroner—Do yon know who was with hint ? Witness—Mr. Chaddick perleipS can tell ; he Arta for one - man who teas with him, Dr. (ox eNamilted the. liey on the • day it was buried—the 9th of September. No other stiv;:ecin had examined it previously. .'The last time I saw the wailful lt,fore his death, it seemed to he mcnclinz ; it was draft lug to a those, so that lie could use his sent a little. Coroner—i-lane any of you, .Inry, any questions to put ? .Inryinan—Hare eon ever beard 3ohn Lees say'how came by the cot on his clothes or liii elbow ? • Witness—No; he said very little. .7nrymmr—When yin( told Mr. Chaddick yon 6nm:tit there was no occasion for an inquest, did put say so because you •behered th• died of the pain at his breast? Witness—No. He had been sometimes irrezitlar in taking his meat, but I did not ihit,k any thin , particular ailed him. Mr. Harmer—Did any medical men come to inspect the hods. witlt the Jury? Did Mr. Earnshaw and NI r. Basnett see the body ? Witness-1' saw some gentlemen. but did not know they were medical men. I saw sonte'gent !open turning . the body over, which distressed 'me very much, awl I w, of away.

Ile once took a little, wine and water, 'Which Was pressed - upon hint as he was told it would do hint good. - Betty Ireland was then called . .-=-I am a married woman. f Sim, was then sworn ) I knew John Lees, the ton of Ho liert Lees. I have known him ever since he was 14 years of age. I did not see him till 'he died. I never saw such a corpse' in all me life'. I washed his clothes. One John Leach assisted in taking off the clothes. • Tile tight shoulder was - quite black on the top. It was like a dark purple— the - breadth of yam- hand or more. The next part I remarked wits the right hip. The'skin was off in two places, sms if m t - b ee n scabbed. One place was smaller than the other. I don't•knoW what produced it. If I must tell the truth-sold the whole truth, there was hardly a free place ou his hack ; it was exactly as if he had been tied to a halbert, and (fogged. I have often seen dead bodies ; I never saw one like this. I think his inside was purified. I can't say, Whe ther or not all these marks were produced by violence. His breast and his belly were not discoloured more 1 han any other !person's. I took the poultice off his foot, but 'did not see any thing particular. The elbow looked very sure; it did not seem as if it had been mending. . Juryman—Did it bleed afresh when you saw it ? Witness—Yes ; as fresh as if it had been just done. He bled most when he was put' into his coffin. Coroner—You say there were Imo marks on his breast ? Witaess—Not that I saw ; time marks that I saw were on the back and sides. Coroner—Did the other places bleed? Witnes4—No ; t hey did riot. I-Tanner____now soon after the death.did you attend ? Witness—Before the body was cold. Mr. Harmer—You have assisted in laying.out many persons after their deatl) Mr. Ilarmer—Did they die ofriolence,?—No. Mr. Ilarmer—And yen! did . not observe such discorourations as tht.se ?—:•:itr. The • disclourations iu this case were all trpon the back. . Mr. FArrishaw was then called. . The Coroner asked hiin, whether bewasa regAar Surgeon, and admitted at. the College ?—He he was a regular Surgeon, but not admitted at the Co!lege. The Coroner offereeLto swear him.—lle• said, lie. thought itimpropei to take an, oath. : Ile Cis one the Society of Friends. The Coroner said, that in a.criminal case,,he . would not examine him, withmst Ire took the oath. • Mr. Harmer—sain, thisavas a case of great putJie justice, and one in which it behaved this gentleman to.takr the oath. lie had known many instances where it had been taken to aid the purposes of justice. The Cot otter said, that in such cases as the present, many persons of the same persuasion had taken the oath, Mr. Earnshaw, after a pause, said, I must decline being sworn. Cm orter—Then -you can't afterwards be examined. You are aware of that ? r 1 Ea rns h w.—Yes. Mr. Wm. Bassett was then sworn.-1 saw John Lees the day after his death. I never saw hint whilst. living. I was solicited h'• MP Harmer to open the body. I discovered that he was in a state of putrefaction. There was a cut on the right elbow about two inches long, and an inch and a half deep. This was livid, and the mark extended to the shoulder. The hone was separated; when I pent the elbow, the bone protruded. The bunt was cut partly in two. I did not perceive that-the place hied ; there was no running. Had I examined it while he was alive, I hare no doubt it would hare opened in the same wi4. I can't say whether the wound was in a healing state, the appearances' after death are so different. The wound was above the joint of the elbow. I Imre bee❑ in the room -dot ilia I examinat ion. There appeared to have been a cut or a stab in the left shimider. The part was black, and • Appeared 10 have been nearly licaltd up. The cut was about two inches long, as I judged by the scar. It did not appear to me that this could have occasioned ally serious injury. !•lis shoulder, and back, , and loins, were mud) discoloured.; they appeared to base been bruised. There . was•no other mark or cut. Coroner—lf von bnd not heard of any accident before his death, what should you think could have produced this dis colionation ? Witne4s-1 shoold think it was produced by violence, in iliete& by some blunt' instrument. Cormier--= , Do you mean to be understood to swear, that the 2toorti6eation•took place in consequence of the bruises and cuts ? Witness—l have no hesitation in saying that. Coroner—Could you telt as well by outward inspection, as if you had opened the body, what was the cause of his death Witness-4 could tell, better if 1 opened•it, Coroner-4f the mortification proceeded from the bruises, must he t►ot have been in excruciating pain for *owe days previous to his death ? mess—UMdotibtedly. Coroner—And would not gangrene have appeared round the other wot n ►ds ? Witness—l saw none, except round the cut.. The back and loins were more petrified than ;Any other part of the body. I did not examine the foot. Coroner—Could you have traced the same mortification on the day he died' as sou did afterwards? Witness—Perhaps not: In some cases, if it bad been very lapid l - fore he died,it might have appeared, and particularly about the abdomen. Jurvma❑—Do yon believe be died in consequence of his vonnds and bruises ? ' Witness—l believe that the wounds and bruises cattsca l the anortification.. I only speak from general appearances. Coroner—Alight not those Itppearances have arisen from some other cause than external injuries? Vitness—l do not think. they could. v Mr. Harmer—A witueis has said, that the wound bled stfter.lris death. Can von account for that ? Witness—l have known it when the fluid was in a state of put refact Mr, Harmer—Would the loss of the eye-sight and of the limbs be a necessary consequence-of an injury to the spine ? Witncss—They would. Harnirr—Are coldness, sickness, loss of appetite, and dejectinh of spirits, also conseptences of an injury to the ?--Ye. Mr. flarmer—if the .wounds-were inflicted three weeks before the death, must they have been very considerable?— yes, they must. I , le,'Harmer—Did the general appearances which the body exhibited lead you to form an opinion of the causeufhis death? Mr. Harmer—Did you believe that they were caused by injuries ?—Yes. . . . . . Mr. Hartiter—You thought, then, that •the appearances were quite sufficient to enable you to judge of the cause of his Oath, witlo,nt opening his body?--Yes. :• Coroner—Then, what did you think was the cause of his death ? Wallets—Cutting and maiming. Coronet--If ills spine had been injured on the I GUI, could be Witness—Yes, be might a little, fur a few days after. But , `atrey'trcit'itijury - halitecti atitte'lo the splint, kc eemla not have walls,l. Coroner:—Did you ever Loow a person become convalescent after an iojttry of t he spine? paralysis of the limbs often follows. Coroner—lf the spine was inj tired on the I6t II ; would lie have hail more pan at first than a fortnight afterwards? Wit tress---I should thiak not. Corom r (to Mr. Ilatmer)—ls tlterc any 'other Medical M a n von, wi•li to examine Mr. JO!, Cox was then ealled—l did not attend upon the deceased brine his death. I viewed the body tot Thorsdav afternoon by order of the Constab:es. May l refer :to notes? Coroner--Yes, if you tool: them at the time. Witness—l took them very shortly, and wrote 'them out af t...maids. Coroner—Very Well. LF oess continot d—There tvas a transverse cut across the arm. I took my hos•aneasure to measure it accurately: it was • an inch and a half long and was open about an inch at the widest part : it was about , an inch deep; I can't say exactly. ft had taken the extreme pointof the bone away. It was a little oblique, as if it were done by a sword, while a man's arm was raised over his head. I took oaks small piece of, :woe that was partially loose. It was not larger titan a sixpence. The wound had not been closed : there was some .grit or bone protrnding from the open part. There' were no marks of intl initiation, to any degree, or mortification. Coroner—liad you seen it while he was living, what should you suppose would have been the state of it ? Wit itess—l t. had been washed clear out from pus or blood. - Coroner—Do you think the man had been properly treated? tVit tress—l du not know; there were some pieces of butte left in. Coroner—What other marks of external violence did you disco% et? Witness—On the left. loin there was,a bruise as large as my band. Thie was over the short, ribs, and from the feel of it, I thought the part hut been inflamed, and that there had been some exudation from the 'cellular membrane. There wa, neither putrefaction nor mortification, hut approaching to putrefaction after his death. On the right side of the back there was a bruise, but not so violent. The discoloura tion was as large-as my extended hand. It was something similar to the other, but not so viitent. There - were two 1»:111,S over the hips; the cuticle was cut, and the marks were in a state of ulceration. There was a blackness and a purple colour : they appeared to have been produced by violence. From the two bruises on the, loins to the back of the neck, there were no bruises of any consequence : iu fact, I think I may say none. I examined both his shoulders, and there was no breakiag of the shin, or any wound that I could discover. The clothes, I was told, were cot ; but if it WilS done by a sword, it might have been by the list side, and did not pene trate the skin. The neck and the throat were discoloured; the lat kyr was black. (;,, tuner —Wh a t du you suppose was the cause of this disco louration iu the throat ? Witness—l should suppose from external violence. Coroner—Hace•you ever seen the same discolouration in the throat and neck where there had been no violence? Witness-1 don't i•collect. Coroner—WaS the diseolouration deeper thhst in cases of death where no,violence had keen committed? Witness—Yes, it was. Cm ontr—From what kind of violence—a blow—or what Wittvess ,, —Strangulation might have done that in the front of the neck, hut not at the back. If a blow, it must have been more ban one. I can form no opinion how it was done. Tim skin wastiut broken. Cot oner—Woutd the appearance have been the same when alive? • Witness—lt would have been tunictied; perhaps. Coroner—Auy other rnarlis ? Witness—No: 1' did not examine the legs; the stockings were on. I put my hand very carefully all over the bead, a , ol tetw no injury done to it. There was no external injury on the breast. Coroner—Any injury on the spine? Witness—l could discover no appearance of any. • I should think theye was no injury done to it. None of the ribs were broken m displaced. - Nu injury was dune to the abtlmuen. Coroner—You opened the bodY ? (A-Jurywari asked the witness to speak out. Mr. Harmer said, he could not hear him distinctly.) . . Witness—l will explain. The mnentum is that part over the intestines. It was in a high state of inflammation, lying over thepart most bruised. The sinall bowels were inflamed the greater part of their length, (_)n moving the body, much blood gushed from the nsouth and nostrils. On opening the o'r' windpipe, it was full of blood ; the right lobe of the lungs seas full - of blood; the right cavity of the thorax contained much blood. The. 4likedast* was- inflamed; the right moult, a us of the pericardium was it:Han:A.. Coroner—Would these inflammations have arisen naturally after death ? Witness—l cannot .say,. that. The heart appeared •sound and healthy. No organic effusion appeared : of a nature to.be fatal, except in the right lobe of - the lungs. It is my opinion, without the least doubt, that be could riot have died of the wound on the elbow. I aoi also,of opinion that if:ht lived till the 2 2d day after. the injury, which he did., and ifproper Medical . means 'had liet;n used; and particularly an abstrac tion of ciopjmnsT,quantities of • blood, the injury might have been checked. 1 mean no!yellections, but here,were no.ap pearances of his having heel, properly bled. If cooious.ex tracts of blood had been made, it is very probable he might baye,.recovered. I think it proper to state this, in conse quence of havlng understood that he bad walked ont. There, were no appearances of his 'heaving been' bled in the arms or neck, which arethe•usual place's. fir bleeding. . . Coroner—Do you think the appearances un the hack were sufficient to cause death ? Withess—l believe they were produced by the inflamma tion of the timeworn, and that inflammation proceeded through the bowels, which might have been checked. by bleeding. I did not discoverthat, till, I opened the holy. 'Coroner—From the general appearances, external and in ternal, what do youconsider the cause•of his death ? Wirness—According to my opinion, the immediate cause was the. suffusion of blood, into the lungs. Ido mit think that was caused by tie bruise on the thorax ; I could not ac count for it. There was no external violence on thelongs. It was At Mortification that, caused death; I saw uo mortiGca lion. If the injuries were• not. so, severe as to occasion death in less than twenty-two days, .ttiere teas time for medical aid to check their effects. capinot distinctly say that death was,occasioned by.. externakvionice. I cannot say that the internal state was Causq, by external, although, it [night have increased if, if 'he had had a disposition to in• liammation in his breastc•the inflammation occasioned - by the bruises might have increased it, so as to cause tl.e.ropture of a blood v,essel, which might hateoecasioned the suffusion Of blood into the lungs. I could forM no opinimi by What means. or weapons the bruises oh the back were produced. I could opt, perceive by the lungs whet her he had bed nov cough. I can not account for the internal appearances; but I thin the exter nal marks would not have,appcared from the internal inflam. mat ion. It is possible bat the internal appearances might have existed without external violence, but that is only conjecture. The inilanimation might have existed without it ; but I think it was produced in the abdomen by external violence. I think the injury done to the thorax might have occasioned the pa ralysis. The tumour iu the neck was inflamed. If I had at tended the deceased during his illness, I could have explained manr circumstances much more satisfactorily. I think, the appearances in the breast most likely to have arisen from the hurtling of a blood ves t rl. I think it mote likely, [fit was oc casioned by external violence, that it was done on the Ifith of August. than earlier. I know what medicines he had taken. 'rlic smell of palm oil, which is used in , w as more predemimant than that of putrefaction. The pain about the shoulder and also in the legs, I think, most probably, prof:era:a from the internal state of the body. in answer to a Juryman—l saw nothing the matter with hin►.but what might have bet n remedied by biee(hmi. Do• you consider his death to have been occasioned by neglecting copious I)leeding?—l think if he had been co piously bled, he might have recovered. Was the disorder which caused his death occasioued by ex ternal bruises?—l think the lutOes occasioned au intlamma tion in the timeworn, which extended slightly to the bowels. 'Fie most skilful anatomists are often at a' loss to find the real cause of death. I think the immediate cause was the suffusion of blood on the lungs. I am confident. it did not proceed from the woo d on the arm, lit answer to questions Ity Mr. Harmer--I saw the body on Thursday afternoon, the day after the Jury had seen it. I learned that Mr. Earnsliaw had attended the deceased. It may be,nsual courtesy to call the person who attended. I did out send for Mr. Earnshaw. It may be, that if he had not the external bruises, he might not have died. I say there were not sufficient external appearances to account for the state of the lungs and thorax. I cannot undertake to swear that that might not have been occasioned by external violence. I think I have seen a body in such a state internally, without external violence. I never saw a body in a state precisely similar. I do not know why hr died. lt► answer to the Coroner—lf the state of the limp bid been occasioned by bruises on the Ittith, he could not have gone to Middleton. I understood that he was a►raid, ott ac count of the circumstance of complaining to his father. Pro pis in the neighbour hood knew• more of it. I - 33w no appear ance of any other complaint about hint. if Eno lunge had Len Inlwrellsel . ,re - t1; hai! 1 littca of breathin4. and perhaps x coirgh. Jann."..Orttg,a . spimici-, exaMined---I hare been acquainted with V. 1., dece'ded five years. ami Worked in the .same factory Aith him. I saw him in the rtcbrniiiti Of • the 16tli at 'the f.etory, betweea eight and nine. I met him coming hnnie from Manchester about fit, that 'evening. He said tie - was woninled, and 1 sass clotted blood on his aria. I snw the next morniUg, ahont half-past six., that be Was wounded, when he came to the-factory. lie - remained abrott an hour, but did nothing. I saw the cut on his arm. I asked . him to let me :look at it. lie showed me hiS right elbow. I saw the hens of his Waistcoat, which lie said, was cut. It was on.the left shoulder. The cut ini,,4lit be a Oar ter of an inch. He did not complain of being cut any other- Wise. I saw him again in the evening going to the doctor. In 'the course of a weei,or three days, I saw lii#O at the factory throwing up his food, and he told me that. vei y little had pass ed but in that way since the 16th. It was about irt o'clock; he said he was poorly. The factory might be tOd yal.as front where he lived. I never walked with him any Way. I do not recollect seeing him walk out after that. I saw him on Thursday before he died; he. was very poorly. I stopped up with him on Sunday night. He could not answer any thing that was said to him. .1 suppose I saw hint four or five times in the factory after the 16th, but I cannot say exactly. I never did hear him complain of any other part. He was a hearty man before the 16th, for any thing that I knew. I never heard him complain of his breast. I was not very - intimate With him. I 'did not go about with him. In answer . to Mr. Harmer—He never attempted to work after the 16th. He was a regular. worker before. I never asked him about any other hurt. I was present when Mr. Cox opened the body, and heard him say the bruises. and not the rut, had occasioned his death.. Betty Iteland and George Cltaddich were present. In answer to the Coroner, Mr. Cox said, blet , ding might have prevented inflammation. I saw too blood taken' from hilis.but by souse leeches.. To questions from Mr. Cox, he did lay that the ,appear ances in the longs aCcoutstud ,for his death. I thtMght be gave satisfaction enough. (Mr. Cox bete stated, that he had said than the deceased had. out-died of the cut in his arm, but of the injuries ou his body) rhos, Whittaker examined—lant a cotton spinner, and live with Robert Lees, to whom my mother is married. I slept and supped with John Lees since Christmas, I tt3. I saw the deceased tot the evening of the itith; betwixt 9 and 10 % re turning on the Bank-g reen. I saw him pale in the counte nance, and discovered he was wounded. I 11111i1CSO hint, am! polled his shirt off. He went up stairs himself. He look e d very in. - His shirt stuck to his body. I discovered a severe cut oat his elbow. He told me that was not the worst. and desired me to look at his shoes, how Utley were cut tint be the horses. I saw his shirt was cot and bloody. Fie showed me no other marks 'of violence. I observed his shot& on the left font cut off. The leather was - torn. I slept with hits that night, and afterwards saw him only at night, and early in the morning, as I was at work- through the day. Ott Sunday he walked up as far as Oldham, to widow- Wright's, hut we stopped a very little time it is a public-house, but we drank nothing there. He drank one glass of brandy and water at the King's Arms before four o'clock that day. Ile would dint!: no more. We got home by five ; lie sat up about an hour. I went with hint another time to Middleton; it might be on the next Sunday. This is the evidence up to 7 o'clock to•dAy. I cannot• keep the express any longer. There is' every prospect of the Inquest lasting, not only IA a very late bout' this night, but during another whole day. CORONER'S INQUEST ON WILLIAM DALTON.

At last Mr. Harmer got up stairs, and called-for Mr. Mdne, who said, he Cer tainly should-not allow him to enter. Mr. Har mer •observeth- " This , is a 'public Court, awl if yon mean to exclude me, you most use as mttch force as will be necessary - to put me out without disturbing the amt."

ITALIAN BANDITII. RYTBACT OF A LETTER FROM ROME, MARCH 27, Tf, e , rubbers on the roads near this city emit inue to range with impunity, and to form the principal annoyance . to which travellers are salsject. An Italian surgeon, who was taken by banditti a few days ago, was only liberated on his procuring a ransotwol 300 Louis : his - cacciatore, whom he had taken to protect him, was p•it to death in cold blood, in the most cruel manner, A vigorous edict was. issued about 14 weeks ago, offering a reward of 500 ?crick for every brigand brought in alive or• dead, with 1000, for every capnbatida (captain~), • and ordering the town of Sonnino, which is their chief hold near the Neapolitan frontier, to be levelled with the ground. You will be surprised to hear how vigorously it has been executed, The town of Sonnino has at length found grace in the eyes of its spiritual fa ther, and is no longer to he swept away. from among the nations: ten holy friars have been sent to preach to the repentant city, and to cast out the evil wicks which ate still suspected to .be larking among them, while the image at Christ, dressed in mourning for the occasion, is to be carried in procession through the streets. These scoundrels carried off a woman lately, and after . Using her in the most brutal manner, fired at her as`a Mark.- • You will hardly believe that tbe Go vernor of Sonnino gave - these miscreants a grand dinner a, few weeks ago, and sat down to table with them, after basing previously been obliged to give them hostages for their safe conduct many of them are in easy circit n ; the most ferocious are said to.be buys of sixteen or eighteen.

MARY ItIDDNG: . Mrs. Mary IZdilig was this morning, at nine • o'cloCk, put - to the'lir, to receive the sentence of the Court. There were very few persims in Court, aril thus 0e wa s saved the auditio n al ll mi sery of a ore public exposure. As on the inv. ceding day, she seemed to be trieply . affec , ed at her disgraceful situation. She was again attend ed and supported by Mrs. Appleby, her nurse.--. Her attire ivas,similar to that which she wore yes terday, with the exception of her wearMg a Wick instead of a white veil. Mr. Clarke, the Officer of the Court, addressed her in the customary manner, stating, that she Stood convicted of steali n g a certain male child of the age of 14 months, the child of John Schtierl and asking her what she had ,to say, •why she should not receive judgment according to 1aw.—..! 6 The unhappy woman burst into tears, but 'made no reply. She seemed to 'await with•trembliet a n x i e ty the declaration - of her fate. The COMMON SE,RJRANT addresSed.lhe:prlictet to the following effect :—" Mary Ridding, yoti have been tried before a Jury of your country, who have viewed your case with peculiar att'e f f. , lion, and with atender regard for your situation 3 and that Jury, atter the Most serious considera tion, have 14011 Imticed you to he . guilty 'of '1 . se. , riOus offence. Thar verdict, however, which was the only one consistent with their oaths theyeintld possibly give, thtly'have coupled with strung rim commendations to mercy . ; and this Court, whichi is always as anxious to receive such ret•oinmend,i'm tiolls as it is desirous of dispensing justice, is, is your case, willing to mitigate the punishment awarded by law for your offence, as mach 3s is consistent' with the public safety, in the future preve»tion of crime, Tbe Court has minutely considered the circumstances in your favour ; it has consldet ed your youths but the circumstance —the Only circumstance which is attended with any weight—is the fact that you yourself have never been a mother, and are therefore ignoratic of those heavenly feelings which subsist in the re lation between parent sod child ; for, had you been a mother, you must have tespected and re- gardvd, instead of agonizing a mother's heart.--ii The crime you have committed is of the blackest description ; for bad you not been arrested its your career of guilt (at the distance, too, of one hundred miles trout the scene of lisat . guilt, which aggravates the offence), and had the grief of the, parents for the loss of their oft spring led on to despair and death, you, morally sp , aking, would have been guilty of. murder. There is still a part of this guilty transaction' which remains behind—l mean your conduct to your husband. Its addition to this outrage com• miffed upon the teelings of the parents of this little innocent, you imposed it ',pun your kits:. band as the child of:your own body, and as the offspting of his affection. For your crime - the law has awareed theguilishment of 'transportation for seven years, and nothing could induce the Court to relax from the utmost severity of the law which would consign you for. the teinainder of your days to become_ the associate in a foreigt. land of criminals of the worst kind, bat your ignorance of those paternal feelings which you have so grossly violated.
