The jury retired at twenty minutes past five o'clock to consider their verdict. They returned into court at twelve minutes past eight o'clock. Prisoner, looking deadly pale, was then replaced at the dock. The Clerk of Arraigns (to the jury)—Do you find the prisoner at the bar guilty or not guilty ? The Foreman —We find the prisoner guilty. The jury strongly recommend him to mercy, on the ground that the crime was not premeditated. The prisoner was then asked in the usual manner if he had anything to say why sentence of death should not be passed upon him. Prisoner, speaking warmly and with much excite ment—l can say, sir, that lam entirely innocent of the charge of the murder of Agnes Oakes. I never raised band or finger against her, no more than when she was cutting my throat. I put up my hand, and got my thumb cut. I got up, and on going out of the room I saw something white, and took it up, and put it to my throat. It was her drawers, and they are covered with blood. I went and told my mother. When I went back blood was coming out of her windpipe. I stopped there some time, and that is how the blood came about my stocking feet. I then put my shoes on, and went out into the street. The witness Dunn was looking out of the window. lie came in, and went upstairs. Deceased was not laid out on the hearthrug, but was laid with her back against the wall, and her head ; as blood came from her so came her body down. That was the position as I went out of the room, and that was why I left her. Her head was on the side of the chair, and she was sitting on her bottom. There was no pillow on the floor, on my solemn oath. There was nothing but the rough jacket, and that lay on the hearthrug. That was when she got out of bed and asked me to forgive her. I can be on my oath further, murder was not done. She has done a good deal. She has sold everything she could lay finger on. I said I would not forgive her, and she said do. As for lifting hand against her I never did ; and I can take a solemn oath I never had a knife in my hand until after the murder. I then said, " 0 mother, here is a knife." I can take my solemn oath, if I die to-morrow, I am not guilty of the murder of Agnes Oakes. Proclamation of silence having been made, His Lordship put on the black cap, and proceeded to pass sentence of death. He said—The jury have heard in substance the same statement as you have now made. They have bestowed upon it, together with the other evidence in the case, the most patient and careful consideration ; and after weighing, as I am sure they have done, all the circumstances, they have come to the conclusion that you are guilty of the murder of that woman. I must say that I agree with them in that verdict. They have accompanied their verdict with a recommendation to mercy, and I shall forward that to the proper quarter. That being the case I shall merely perform the duty which the law im poses on me, and that is to pass sentence of death. His lordship then pronounced the doom prescribed by law, and added, " May the Lord have mercy upon you." Prisoner (as he was removed from the dock) —My lord, if I should so die I shall die innocent. Although the verdict announced by the jury was not unexpected in court, and did not create surprise, there was a profound sensation felt by all present as the wretched culprit stood forward to hpar judgment passed upon him. During the trial he had mani fested no emotion, but while the jury were absent he reclined in the dock, and appeared to be suffer ing great anguish. As he stood in front of the dock and made his rambling statements he was ex ceedingly pallid, while nervous twitchings of his mouth showed how keenly he felt the terrors of his awful fate. At the same time, his was not a case to excite compassion, and there were few or no signs of commiseration for or sympathy with the convict. As the first words of the sentence wore being pro nounced some persons in the gallery left their seats, and went or were conducted out of court. It was understood that the father and mother were present during the trial, and it was believed they would be called as witnesses for the defence. The probability, therefore, is that one or both of them felt overcome on hearing the verdict, and could not remain to learn the sentence passed upon their son. _ LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKE2—This Day.

MARKE TS. --This day. MARK LANE. There was only a moderate supply of English wheat on sale hero to-day. For most kinds the demand ruled in active ; nevertheless, Monday's quotations were supported The imports of foreign wheat having boon moderately good the show of samples was tolerably extensive. Both red and white qualities changed hands slowly, but at full prices. Floating cargoes of grain wore held on former terms. Tho inquiry for thorn, however, was by no means active. The supply of both English and foreign barley was limited, and sales progressed steadily, at extreme rates. We have no change to notice in the value of malt. The supply was only moderate. There was a fair sale for oats, at prices equal to Monday. Both beans and peas, owing to their scarcity, wore held for rather more money. The flour trade was quiet. In floods very little was passing.

PAYING DEAR FOR HIS WALNUTS.—Richard Freddenwick, described.. as a stock and share dealer, who ought to have answered to the sum mons yesterday, whose manner during the hear ing of the case was very eccentric, was charged before the Lord :111.tyor with causing an obstruction in Royal Exchange Avenue, and with interfering with the police in the execution of their duty and using abusive language towards them. The police constable on duty at the Royal Ex change-avenue stated that about five o'clock on Wednesday last a boy was hawking about walnuts and causing great inconvenience to the gentlemen coming from the Royal and Stock Exchanges. He ordered the boy to go, but the prisoner told him not to mind the policeman, and after keeping him there six or seven minutes, told him to put down his basket and go into the public house for change. The boy did so, and when he came out the officer made the boy move on. The prisoner then commenced abusing him, and followed him to the end of the avenue, and finally threw the walnuts, which he had bought for about Gd., at the feet of the constable, whereupon about a mob of 100 boys and lads scrambled for them all over the policeman's feet. Tho prisoner abused him all the time. At last, with the assistance of another policeman, the prisoner was taken to the station-house. The other constable corroborated the last witness. It was urged for the defence that the prisoner was merely buying some walnuts, and sent the boy into the public-house for change, and was waiting for it when the constable interfered ; and that as he ob jected to his eating the walnuts be then threw them down, and was going to walk away when he was taken into custody. the Lord Mayor said that he had a good mind to send him to prison for interfering with the officers in the execution of the law, but instead he should inflict half the penalty the la w enforced, that was £2 103. The fine was paid by the defendant's solicitor. MARLBOROUGII-STREET. EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—Mary Wright, about 45 years of age, was charged as follows : Police-constable Win. Eadie, 198 C, said last night I found the prisoner naked in the middle of the road in Oxford-street, and, thinking she was in sane, as soon as I could get some clothes I took her to the hospital ; but as the surgeon stated there was nothing the matter with her, I took her to the station. Mr. Knox—What time was it? Constable—A quarter to 10. Mr. Knox—Do you really mean what you say that she was naked. Constable—l do, sir. Prisoner—lt's quite true. Mr. Knox—How came you t o do su c h a thing _ _ _ _ ... Prisoner—We had been having some conversation about persons getting a living in the streets having a license put on them, and I did it for a lark, and the boys annoyed me. Berns, the gaoler—l have known the prisoner as ,he keeper of a stall with vegetables in Oxford-street 'or about 17 years. Prisoner—That's true, but I don't go out on Sun• day like St. Giles's women. Mr. Knox—She seems to me not to bo in her righ mind. Was she drunk last night? Inspector Bowles—She was. The Prisoner's Sister—Ever since 1860 she has been out of her mind. She has been at Hanwell, but was let out to give her another trial. I have now had her living with me in Barrett's-court ten weeks, and my children are afraid of her. Mr. Knox—She is a very unfit person to go about the streets. The sister—When she has fits she falls on the back of her head, and becomes worse. She is not safe to be about. Mr. Knox—The best course will be to take her to Marylebono workhouse, and then have her passed to Ilanwell. THAMES. STEALING COALS ON THE RIVER.--William Eld and Thomas Eld, brothers, most notorious river thieves, who had been convicted several times, were brought before Mr. Benson, charged with stealing 3701b5. of steam coal from a barge called the Tory, the property of William Cory and Son. George Read, an inspector of the Thames Police, was in a police galley this morning at 10 minutes past six o'clock, and saw a man in the barge Tory hand ing a basket of coals to a man in a boat alongside. The man in the barge jumped into the boat , and both rowed away. Willi am Eld was using the skulls, while his broth er was t h ro wing water on the coals and wetting th em , to g i ve th e m the appearance men gave chase to th e b oat an d of having been ove r b oar d . Th e inspector and his ca ptured the priso ners. Both deni e d t a ki ng coa ls from the Tory. The coals in the prisoner's boat weighed 3701b5., and were exactly similar to the coals in the barge. Owen Sheen, a river constable, confirmed the evidence of his inspector, and Mr. Thomas Willetts, foreman to Cory and Sou, coal merchants, said that coals had been tak en f rom t h e i r barge, Tory. The coals were for stea m purposes , a nd worth 18s. per ton. The prisoners protested their innocence, and said that lightermen gave th em the coals out of other barges. Mr. Benson sentenced the prisoners to be impri soned for six weeks, and k e pt to bard labour. Inspector Read pr o d uced a t i c ket-of-leave, from which it appeared th a t Th omas Bid was liberated from Millbauk prison on the 2 d o f May last, and that ho was sentenced t o seven years' penal servi- tude for warehouse breaking an d larceny on the 18th of August, 1861. Mr. Benson—And has his sentence been com muted ? luspector Read—No, sir ; he had four years before that. A list of convictions ag a i ns t William Eld were put in. Ile had been imp r i sone d for 18 months for felony, and repeatedly co nv i c t e d s ummarily at this and other courts. Mr. Benson said there had been a great failuro of justice. If these representations had been mado to him when he called upon the prisoners for their defence ho should have committed them for trial. lie could not alter his decision now. WESTMINSTER. RUFFIANLY ATTACK UPON A SOLDIER,--Patrick Griffin was charged with feloniously assaulting and wounding John Wilkinson, a private iu the Grena- Ler Guards. Prosecutor, who wore a large bandage round his head, and whose face was also strapped up, said— On Saturday night last, between twelve and one o'clock, I was coming along near the Broadway, Westminster. I was alone, and met the prisoner morn d oand th another man.eother After man ftergoing five or six yards re suddenly came towards me. What their intention was I cannot say. Pri soner came on the right side of m e and his com panion on the left. Some remark was passed between them about my being one of the ----. Prisoner then struck me with his fist in the eye, and his companion followed suit, and in a different direction, and struck me on the temple. Prisoner then again advanced towards me, and struck me with something hard above the temple. I hare no recollection of what occurred after that. I became insensible, and cannot say how I received the wounds I hare got on my head. Mr. Selfe—Were you sober ? Prosecutor—Perfectly. Mr. Selfe—Are you sure this is the man? Prosecutor—Quite sure. Mr. Selfe—llave you ever seen him before? Prosecutor—Often. As I passed along the neighbourhood I have seen him loitering about. Mr. St:He—Have you ever had auy quarrel with him ? Prosecutor—Never. 1 never spoke to bun. Mr. Selfe--Then you cannot in any way account for this attack being made upon you ? Prosecutor—l cannot. I never gave the slightest provocation. Ile was remanded, CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—This Day, OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Smith.) TILE MURDER IN THE KENT-ROAD. Louis Bordier was indicted with the wilful mur der of Mary Ann Snow. Mr. Poland and Mr. Collins prosecuted ou the part of the Treasury, and Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. The facts of the case have so recently appeared in print that a repetition of thorn in a brief farm is all that is necessary on the present occasion. The prisoner was by trade a currier, residing at 3, Mill stead-terrace, Church-street, Old Kent-road, the housebeingoccupied by thedeceased's aunt, Caroline Snow. He had lived on the most affectionate terms with the deceased and his children for 13 years, and had, up to the morning of the fatal occurrence, borne the character of an industrious and respect able man. The witnesses examined before the magistrate and the coroner were re-examined by Mr. Poland. The most important witness, however, was the surgeon, Dr. George Simpson, who was called in immediately after the prisoner had inflicted the wound on the throat of the unfortunate woman, and therefore we give his evidence at length. Ile said he was called to 3, Millstead-terrace, about a quarter to six on the morning of the 10th of Sep tember. He found the deceased still alive, but insensible. The wound on the throat was an exten sive one, and in a short time after the unfortunate woman died. On his seeing the prisoner he said, "I'm the man," and after that he (prisoner) wont up to the bed and kissed the deceased. He said he had written a letter to his brother telling him what to do with the children after he had carried out his plan. He said, " rii tell you all about it," and and then went on to describe the whole thatr took place lip to the time of the arrival of wit ness. He said he bad made up his mind to kill his wife, children, and himself, and early in the morning he arose for the purpose of carrying his plan into operation. His wife then awoke, and as it was early she told him it was too soon to get up, and told him to get into bed again. He did so, but shortly after that he awoke again, and his wife again woke at that time when he was stand ing before her. He kissed her, and putting his hand around her neck, having shook her hand, and then drew the knife across her throat. Ile asked him how he committed the act, and he said he then drew bis hand across the bed in a slant ing direction, and that the blood then came. He (witness) asked him if he did not know there was blood in the human body, and he said, " Oh, yes." He (witness) then said, " Did you not ex pect it from your wife ?" when prisoner replied, "No, I cannot say that I did." Prisoner further stated that his wife looked towards the door, as if she intended to go there, but his plan was that they should all die, and he went over to the place to show witness how he stood before the door. He went on to say that he intended to cut his own throat, but the blood prevented him. Witness said, " What, the sight of it ?" and he said, " No, it stood up," and then put his hand up and made a movement with it as if it had come in contact with a pillar of blood. He went on to say, " Of course Icannot do it now, so now some one must come and cut my throat, but I ought to have done it another way." Before the conversation ceased the prisoner alluded again to the deceased's throat, and said " it was ♦ery hard to do." On witness asking him what made him think of doing such a thing, he replied " It was necessary for to do it." Witness said, " Then you looked upon it as a duty," and he answered " Certainly, it was right, wasn't it ?" Ile (witness) said "No ; but how did you think it was necessary for you to do it ?" and he replied, " I shall not tell you until the proper time." A letter was then handed to witness by the constable, by which time the prisoner had sat down and was smoking, but on seeing the letter given to him ho got up and said, " I wrote that letter on Sunday night." He repeated the contents of the letter (the one telling his brother what to do with the children), and went on to say, " I only wrote the letter on Sunday night, but I had made up my mind to kill myself a fortnight before that, but I could not part with my wife, so I determined she should die with me, as also my children." Witness asked about his health, when he said be had been bad and bad been operated upon. The witness asked how he felt his head at that time, when he replied very quickly, " Oh, you know I am not insane." Witness felt his pulse, and asked him if he had any singing noise in his cars, to which he said he thought he had, but was not quite sure about it. In cross-examination by Mr. Sleigh, witness said .he disease under which the prisoner laboured was fistula, which was of a depressing nature to the system. The result of an operation would increase that depression. Mr. Sleigh•—You have carefully studied tho whole of the facts connected with this case ? What is your opinion of the state of the prisoner's mind when he committed the act ? Witness—l believe he was insane at the time 1 was speaking to him, and I should say he was in sane at the time he committed the act. Mr. Poland—You say you have carefully con sidered all the matters connected with the case ; have you read the letters, and do you think he was insane at the time he wrote them ? Witness—l should say he did not know he was doing wrong ; the letters are the offspring of the delusion. Mr. Poland—What delusion ? Witness—That it was necessary ho should die. The Learned Judge—What was the particular delusion under which the prisoner laboured ? Witness--That it was necessary he should die There is a recognised form of delusion of that de. scription. Mr. Sleigh—You believe be was quite insane at the time you were speaking to him ? Witness—Yes. His reason was in abeyance, and there was a complete absence of control over the perverted train of thought. Mr. Poland—Name ono of delusions under the which you think he laboured ? Witness—His belief in the delusion of the blood standing up as a barrier. Mr. Poland—lfave you not in the course of your professional labours met with many persons who dislike the sight of blood ? Witness—Yes; I almost fainted myself the first Arne I saw it. Mr. Sleigh—Your deliberate opinion is that at ,he time the prisoner committed the act ho was insane ? Witness—Certainly ; that is my deliberate opi nion. Mr. Poland then proposed to call evidence to show the state of mind of the prisoner since the murder. Mr. Sleigh said he thought that was the state of mind of the prisoner after the murder was com mitted. The important matter was to ascertain his mental condition when the murder was committed. The learned judge said be would receive the pro posed evidence. Mr. IVatherworth, the surgeon at Horsemonger lane Gaol, said that during the time the prisoner was confined there he did not show any symptoms of insanity. lie had not, however, hal any parti cular conversation with him to test the state of his mind. _ _ _ _ _ Mr. Keene, the governor of the same gaol, said he had seen the prisoner daily, from the day of the murder up to the 17th of September, during which time he had never shown the slightest symptom of insanity. Mr. Gibson, surgeon of Newgate Gaol, said he had seen the prisoner daily since Irth of Sept. down to the present time. He had conversed with him to test his intellect, but ho had never seen any symptoms of insanity. Mr. Jonas, Governor of Ncwgate, gave similar evidence. Mr. Poland then called Celestine Bordier, the little daughter of the prisoner, who stated that she was in bed with the baby on the morning her mother was killed. Her father came into the room and stood laoking at her for some time, telling her to hold up her face and remain still. She did so, but after he had looked at them Jor wino time he went away. She saw he had something in his hand behind. The evidence of the child produced a deep im pression in the court. Mr. Sleigh then addressed the jury for the pri soner, and said, after the evidence they had heard, he felt certain they, as reasonable men, could not come to any other conclusion but that the prisoner at the time he committed the act was in an unsound state of mind. The learned Judge summed up the evidence, and The jury retired to consider their verdict, and, after the al.•sence of five and twenty minutes, re turned into court with a verdict of Guilty. The learned Judge passed sentence of death, and furthei directed the Sheriff of Surrey to see the sentence carried into effect. 1 1 1;. MD EDITION.
