The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the wool sack at five o'clock. SALE OF BEER BILL. Earl GREY presented 14 petitions in favour of the ab )ve bill, signed by upwards of 6,000. Lord MONTEAGLE presented several petitions to the same effect. Lord BESSBOROUGH presented several petitions from Bradford and York against the Beer Bill. RAISING SUNKEN VESSELS. The Earl of HARDWIOKE presented a petition from a gentleman named Mr. Edward Austen, the inventor of a patented plan for raising sunken vessels, and also for lifting them over bars. The petitioner stated that he had laid his plan before the Admiralty Board, and who had reported favourably of the plan, but in consequence of the board's hesitation to adopt the ap• paratus, the petitioner applied to the Turkish ambas sador, who on the part of his. Government was disposed to accept the plan, and thepetitioner applied to the Board of Admiralty for a copy of the report in order to lay it before the Turkish authorities. The statements contained in the petition were highly important and in teresting, and deserved the most serious consideration of her Majesty's Government at this particular moment. The noble lord proceeded to read a number of letters, all spcaking in the highest praise of the invention, and also stated that there could be no doubt of the value of the invention. The Board of Admiralty had declined to produce the report asked for, and the petitioner there fore applied to this house for redress. Lord REDESDALE presented a petition from the Manchester Chamber of Commerce against the Limited Liability Bill. NEW RIVER COMPANY BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. INVERNESS BRIDGE BILL. On the motion of the Duke of ARGYLL the standing order No. 179, sec. 4, was considered and dispensed with, and the Inverness Bridge Bill was read a second time. NUISANCES REMOVAL BILL. This billwasread a third time and passed. LIMITED LIABILITY BILL. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY then rose to move that the Limited Liability Bill, having been introduced and passed by the House of Commons, in conformity with an unanimous resolution of that house declaring " that the law of partnership which renders every person who, though not an ostensible partner, shares the profits of a trading concern, liable to the whole of the debts, is unsatisfactory, and should be so far modified as to permit persons to contribute to the capital of such con cerns on terms of sharing their profits, without incuring liability beyond a limited amount ; and the progress of the bill having been delayed by the lengthened discussions on the conduct of the war, which prevented it being sent up to this house at an earlier period, and great in convenience being experienced from the suspensionof many undertakings of great importance, consequent on the stoppage of all charters and acts of Parliament for giving limited liability, in the anticipation of Parliament legis lating on the subject, the circumstances which render legislation cn the subject matter of the said bill expe dient are of such urgency as to render the immediate con sideration of the satne necessary. The noble lord proceeded to urge the importance of the measure, which he said involved a principle to which no well-founded objection would be offered. It was of the highest importance to pass such a measure, as the Board of Trade had refused to exercise the power of granting charters to companies, in consequence of the invidious position in which they felt such a power placed . them. A vast number of valu able undertakings were waiting fur the settlement of t he question in order that they might be _brought into existence. Lord REDESDALE opposed the motion on the ground that the noble lord had failed to make out that this measure was one of such urgency as to demand a suspension of the standing order. He con tended that the government were themselves to blame for not bringing forward the measure until towards the close of the session. He did not mean to pass any opinion upon the merits of the bill itself. All he felt it was his duty to do was to oppose the suspension of their standing order on the simple ground that there was no caie of urgency shown in respect of this measure. The effect of the standing order had been most beneficial in facilitating the progress of business in both Houses of Parliament. [LEFT SPEAKING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS—(THIS DAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. Stunners' Divorce Bill was read a third time mid passed. EXCHEQUER BILLS (7,000,0001) BILL. On the order of the day for the third reading of this bill, Sir H. WILLOUGHBY expressed his opinion that it was impolitic to add such a large sum as this to the unfunded debt, for it was only postponing the funded debt; for instance; 2,000,000/. of thelyears '57, '5B, and '59 were already forestalled, which he thought a solid reason for objecting to this bill. If the house had done nothing else, as some people said, it had certainly voted money in the most liberal manner. The house have this year voted no less than 92,000,000/., or very nearly RO, of which 69,000,000/, are taxation ; a loan of 16,000,000/., and this additional 7,000,0001. He be lieved that all our expenditure, enormous as it was, could not amount to this enormous sum. He had great doubts if we knew what we were about in voting all ;hose vast war supplies. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said with regard to the increase of the unfunded debt it was not considerable as compared with the late war and later periods, though it was larger than any one could wish if there was any option. The house ought also to bear in mind there was a considerable amount of navy bills, ordnance bills, and other bills afloat in former times, whereas now the whole of the unfunded debt was represented by the Exchequer Bonds now out standing. In order to defray large demands upna the finances of the country, a Ways and Means Bill was necessary at the very commencement of the year; and he thought there was no ground for supposing that there was any error in his calculations. No advance had been made from the Savings Banks money for those purposes, and it was not his intention to touch that money. (Hear.) The bill was then read a third time, and passed. CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION) BILL. On the order of the day for the third reading of this bill, Lord J. RUSSELL rose and said he wished to offer a few remarks to the house on this subject. He be lieved, whether we considered the amount of money voted this year by the house, or whether we loo ked at the prospect before us, it was a matter of deep importance. Taking these matters into considera tion, ex.; tion, if we look to the prosperity of the war, and, looki ng to our navy, great as it was, it was evident the enemy did not mean to meet us in that way. We were now in the month of August, and the prospects were not more favourable. With respect to our prospect in the Black Bea; there was danger to Turkey on the Asiatic frontier. He was in hopea there would be some strength affo r d e d b y a foreign enlistment bill, but in that hope he was disappointed. Still no sach force had been sent to the scene of action, and therefore, with regard to the Asiatic frontier, we had no • prospect decisive of safety th ere. The force now in the Crimea would be met by a large Russian army, increased by large forces from Poland and other places. Those . were matters of very greati mportance, and su c h as re . quired the u t m ost consideration. It would be the business - of the Government to consider the means for the next cam paign ; but on that he wished to say nothing, f or already too much publicity had been given to those measures. It was not his intention to revive the discussion of the other evening with regard to a particular proposition of limitation or counterpoise, or any other schem e by • which the preponderance of Russia should be put an end to in the Black Sea, but to refer partly to what had occurred, and partly to the future. With regard to • himself, although he entirely acquiesced in the derision of bis noble friend, that it was advan tageous for the public service that his despatches containing an account of his proceedings at Vienna could not be produced, he hoped the time would come when they might be given entire, without garbling or omissions—when Parliament and the country would he enabled to form a correct estimate of his motives and conduct. It would have been observed that tie Turkish Ambassador at Vienna, who was a man as conversant with European affairs as any person he had met with, and knew the interests of his own country, had ir,t stated his dissatisfaction of the terms prop, red by the Austrian Government, nor had they heard whe ther the proposition was received in a similar manner at Constantinople as it was at London and Paris; and if not the Turkish Government must have been of opinion that the terms proposed by Austria was sufficient for the security of Turkey. If, therefore, the course of the war had been changed, and they were called on to continue it for the maintenance of the military and naval reputa tion of England and France, and not for the security of Turkey, no doubt Turkey, as they had been the means of saving,her would contribute to their assistance ; but, in that case, there must be no more Turkish loans and guarantees, but they must give her downright plain subsidies. Such, he thought, must be the inevitable re sult, if the Turkish Government be of opinion at any time that sufficient terms of peace had been proposed. He was disposed to pay the utmost attention to any opinion their ally, France, might give with reference to negotiations for peace should such arise, and it would be the duty of the English Government to consider the whole of the circumstances, who, he hoped, on the one band, would not consent to any terms they did not think honourable and safe, and, on the other, not continue the war when such terms could be obtained. With re spect, then, to the three questions—that of carrying on the war at present, the preparations for the future campaign, and any negotiations for peace that might arise, he could only say that there never could be greater confidence placed in a Go vernment than that reposed in them by the bill they were about to read a third time, and the house would have a right to call on them at the commence ment of the next session to show their confidence had not been misplaced. He next adverted to the sum of money granted for the conveyance of the Sardinian troops to the seat of war, in consequence of a treaty en tered into with the King of Sardinia, and in doing so could not help calling attention to their gallantry and fidelity to the cause of Europe, and the general support that cause had received at the hands of the king and his ministers—(hear)—and who had waived all claims to any concessions it might have been inexpedient for this country and France to grant him. (Hear, hear.) He had come forward boldly and cordially as an ally, and had sent some of the best troops in Europe to the field of battle, where he was certain, if occasion offered, these troops would sustain the reputation they had acquired during every period of European history. But if the King of Sardinia and his ministers have acted ie this manner (whilst subjecting their country to immediate peril) to uphold the general balance of power in Europe, it was not to be supposed that they did not expect to obtain the moral support of tlis country, in a cause which they, as well as Sardinia, have at•heart—that of seeing a better system of government prevailing in Pied mont and Italy, and their anxiety for the accomplish ment of which he gave them great credit. Lord John then alluded to the present state of Piedmont, the dis orders of which he hoped to see checked, and be no longer consecrated as it were by the Government to the state of the Two Sicilies to Tuscany, and to the occupa tion of Rome by the French. It has been said on the part of the Roman Catholic powers of Europe, that it was necessary the Pope, as the head of the Roman Catholic Church, should have liberty of judg ment and independence of action, but if Rome be occupied by foreign troops, where, he asked, was his freedom and independence. Any person they met with acquainted with these things, no matter to what country they belonged, could not deny that if the Austrian and French troops were withdrawn the autho rity of the Pope would be denied, and the people would establish some sort of government more consistent with justice, and admitting some degree of feeling opposite to those odious means adopted by Ecclesiastical Go vernments. If that be the case, what prospect was there, under the present system, that either the Ear perer of Austria or the Emperor of France would con sider himself able to withdraw his troops from that place. But, if they should continue there, it was not only as he had said logically a contradiction to the theory , that the Pope, in order to be free and exercise due au thority over his Roman Catholic subjects, should have an independent territory, but they were likely to cause a disturbance in the balance of power in'Europe ; and, consequently, they could not carry on war against Rus sia, because she occupied her neighbour's territory, whilst they permitted foreign troops in Rome. thereby disturbing the balance of power in Europe. This, he thought, was a subject which .the British Government ought to exert their power to prevent. Was it not, he asked, possible for the English Government, in concert with the French Government and with Austria, to devise some system of government for these Roman States consonant to the interests ofthe people, and have in it the elements of justice. Had th e war tsrminated he believed it would have been one of the first subjects to which the First Lord of the Treasury would have directed the attention of our ally—to ask the assistance of Austria in the task of devising some valuable system of government for the Roman States, that would enable the Emperor of France and the Em peror of Austria to withdraw their foreign forces, and that foreign power which now prevailed there. Unhap pily they had no immediate prospects of peace, and therefore it was he called the attention of the Govern ment to this subject, and he was aware it would not be an unwilling attention, feeling certain that if his fiend at the head of the Government could perceive any mo le by which he could influence the Government for the benefit of the people of Italy, and that would place them more in accordance with the general interests of Europe and their own happiness he would readily em bravos it. Ile (Lord J. Russell) could not see any great difficulty that ought to prevent the accomplishment of what he bad alluded to, but of course he did not enter into the question of the original occupation of Rome by France,-nor the title of Austria to the dominions he has occupied. It might be said this was an old subject— that this beautiful and unhappy land had been subject to oppression of every kind, and had never enjoyed that freedom which people of so much genius, of so much in dustry, and of such capacity for the free enjoyment of physical and intellectual pursuits possessed ; but he saw no reason why, because this was an ojd grievance it should not be remedied, and he hoped they might all live to see the end of this particular one. They had seen in past years Spain, who had not been oppressed by foreign powers make vigorous efforts to improve her government, which she was still making, and he hoped to God so successfully that they might see Spain in the enjoyment of a representative government, which was at present no doubt crushed in Italy by foreign influence. He trusted the voice of England would be raised for the improvement of the present system of Italian government, at the same time checking and controlling that wild spirit of liberty and enthusiasm which Mazzini and his followers loved to inculcate. After some further general remarks his lordship said he did not consider he should have discharged his duty had he allowed the session to close without commending this subject to the notice of the Government. Mr. WILKINSON was perfectly astonished at the speech of the right hon. member for Oxford (Mr. Glad st one)the other night. That any man, much less a member of the house, should draw such disastrous conclusions with respect to the resources of England and France, he must confess he felt greatly surprised and must wink that it filled him with dismay. The noble lord the member for the City of London still adhered to his opi nion that an honourable peace might be effected if the proposition of Austria had been acceded to, and that if Turkey was satisfied with it, this country and France had no right to interfere. (Cries of no, no, from Lord John Russell.) He had understood the noble lord to say so. Ho confessed he could not see how this war, which was commenced for the purpose of showing that the peace of Europe should not be disturbed with im punity, and tl at, if it was, the fault should lay with the disturber. He thought the house ought not to separate without some expression on the part of the house of their opinion with respect to the war and its probable results. Lord J. RUSSELL observe , ' that the hon. member for Lambeth was under a mistake with respect to what he had stated on two important particulars. The first was that the proposals of Austria might have been as sented to. Now he did not say any suck thing, what he said was, that they might have been assented to at that time but they could not now, but an opportunity mieet arise during the recess for their re-consideration. With respect to the second part he had stated that it would be an unwise course to continue the war when the Ambassador of Turkey, as he understood, was ready to assent to the propositio n of Austria. Lord PALMERSTON did not rise to complain of the course that had been pursued by his noble friend the Imember for the City of London. It was natural that the great objects to which he had adverted should oc cupy his mind at a period when'his time was less occu pied than it had formerly been. It was also natural for him, at the end of the session, to ask the Government what were their intentions on so important a subject. The noble lord had adverted to the responsibility of the Government ; he could assure his noble friend that the Government were fully sensible of the great responsi-. bilites that were upon their shoulders, and did not in tend to shrink from them. (Hear, hear.) When, how ever, a cause was just, and the sacrifice made called for, lie could not see how one who had been a party to the war and the continuance of it—iont seefac howt,itsersueaethesl advocate—(hear, hear) — he could not on party,ce withdraw except for from nt some the v e e o r u y re c e og h e e n th had d e a p s o r e n should v , i uusoluyl pur d, uart. i s n u l e a d g , i n a a o r d y take evihl p t a h i a n t s t w o o u s e l d t r before esul t f t r h o e m c oi it. country tr ( y c all he e r t s h . e ) Thseu members chast am stamp f the (Hear.) present H e saidthis Governmentin no w spirite r e not o ho t i fm he men dis of . would pataeereen again t saytohti that a n t o t b h l e e friend, and i t w na e nw r e ready to upon themselves the responsibility of all they ha t d done, and would willingly render to Parliamentswerhn ito talcs m l et aeain an account of all they did hereafter.rmember_; Whatever might be the opinion of some few n that house, and a small nu m b er of p ers ons outeeofEideoe.Orris.n: he could never b e b roug h t to b e li eve t h at th e opinions and statements put forward by them were consonant or would be supported by the country at large. (Hear.) It could not be expected that the Government could at theythe ptrh heoseungtttime enter into any explanation as to what might be accomplished by the prosecution of the war, or what the effect of its end might be-- (hear, hear)—the operations of war must be dependent upon circumstances that might arise. (Hear.) It was unnecessary to tell any man that to state the course in tended to be adopted by the Government would have the effect of laying the, ground s of defeat.l (Hear, hear.) One opinion had been put forward by his noble friend— i namely, that Turkey was willing and . anxious to adopt THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EvENINO, AUGUST 7. 1855. the course proposed by Austria, but was prevented by England ar.d France. For his own part he believed— indeed, he had no doubt—that contrary to the supposi tion of the noble lord that the opinions of the Turkish Government were consonant with those of France and England. (Hear.) The objects of the war, however, were far greater than the protection of Turkey ; its object was to preserve the peace and tranquillity of Europe, and to put an end to the ambition of Russia and her aggressive policy, and her desire to put down the vast commercial transactions of the world. England and France, therefore, had as great an interest in the matter as Turkey herself ; and at the present moment he bad no hesitation in saying that, on this important sub ject, there was a perfect unanimity between France, this country, and Turkey. (Hear, hear.) With respect to France, there was perfect unity of views and opinions between this couhtry and her, and he had no doubt that in the end the great objects both had in view would be effectually carried out. The noble lord bad said that the country had not been so successful in this war as he had hoped ; but the causes to which he had attributed that want of success were totally without foundation. The Government at the present mo ment were acting under the powers given them by Parliament, and he (Lord Palmerston) hoped before the termination of the autumn, to send out to the seat of war under the parliamentary provisions, such a force as would effectually put an end to the further aggression of Russia, and effect thereby the general ob ject for which the war had been commenced and carried on. (Hear, hear.) The noble lord had directed the attention of the house to the condition of the Papal States, and had referred in eulogistic but weldeserved terms, to the example of the people of the King of Sar dinia. (Hear.) It was fortunate for that people that their views and their wishes had been so completely identified by their Sovereign, who, although it might curtail some of his prerogatives, at once acceded to their desires, gave them free institutions, and by so do ing had set an example that was worthy the imitation of every Power in Europe, if not in the world. (Hear, hear.) The course that had been generally adopted by the Papal States was much to be lamented. (Hear, hear.) In Naples the influence of Russia was predominant. (Hear, hear.) There the Government had shown its hostility to England and France by its prohibitions ; and lately there had been acts of cruelty and oppression committed by the Government that was a disgrace to the present age. (Hear.) These were, however, subjects it was most difficult for the Govern ment of the country to deal with—(hear)—but he must say that, as regarded France, without entering into the motives which led to the occupation of Rome, that its forces in that country bad been considerably decreased. As to the Austrian occupation of Tuscany, that had been aLo gether removed. (Hear, hear.) There had, it was true, been a report that the Austrian forces had been conside rably augmented in Italy—that was not the fact. The truth was, from all the information he had received, that the addition of Austrian troops into Italy had tab-en place for the purpose of supplying the place of the Ita lian troops that had either leave of absence or had been removed. He believed all the reports ths.t had appeared with respect to Austria were totally without foundation. (Hear.) Whether Aus;,ria would take the field with England and France against Russia he could not say — (a laugh)—but of this he was satisfied, that she would never take the field against them. (Cheers.) As to Itaiy, he hoped the aspirations of the noble lord would be realised— (hear)—for it war lamentable to see a country so endowed by nature, and with such rare capabili ties, so fallen and so degraded by her rulers. (Hear, hear.) No Government, either in France or England, he felt convinced would ever be backward in doing all in their power to improve her condition and that of her people. (Cheers.) He could assure the house that the attention of France and England had not been withdrawn to the other important subjects alluded to by the noble lord, and the house might rest assured that their best exertions would be put forward to meet the wishes he had expressed. (Hear, bear, and cheers.) He must again repeat that the Government were prepared to take all blame for the course they had adopted or might adopt during the recess, and would be but too happy to give an account to Parliament' upon its meet ing again of what they had done, which he hoped would be satisfactory both to the country and the house. (Cheers.) Mr. HENLEY deprecated the course pursued by the noble lord the member for the city of London ; it was calculated to do much harm, and could not be produc tive of any beneficial results. He had on a previous occasion opened up the whole nationalities of Poland and Hungary, and he supposed the present was a sequel to that. (Rear, hear.) Lord J. RUSSELL believed he bad not said one word with respect to Hungary, but had only referred to Poland. Mr. HENLEY then went on at some length to decry the course pursued by the noble lord the member for the city of London, expressing his regret that the matter had been brought forward, and it was a fact only throw ing out the apple of discord for no real ostensible object. The bill (the Appropriation) was then read a third time and passed. MILITIA PAY BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. PUBLIC HEALTH. (No. 2) BILL. This bill, on the motion of Sir B. HALL, passed through all its stages, and was road a third time and passed. CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill, re suming at the 22d clause. Aftor some discussion upon this clause, The SOLICITOR•GENERAL said that as there was so limited a period of time at the disposal of the house that morning, for the full and proper adjustment of the clause, so as to suit the expressed views of the hon. members who had already spoken, be would consent for the present, though he should do so reluctantly, to with draw the clause. (Hear, hear.) The clause was accordingly omitted. Clauses 23 to 34, inclusive, were agreed t) without opposition. Some further ones baying also been adopted without much discussion, it being 10 minutes to 4 o'clock, The house resumed, and the CHAIRMAN reported progress,.

A despatch, of which the enclosed is a copy, has this day been received from, Rear-Admiral the Hon. R. S. Dmidas, C. 8., the Commander-in-Chief of her Majesty's ships and vessels in the Baltic. Duke of Wellington, at Nargen, July 30. Sir,—l beg you will be pleased to acquaint the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, that having received, on the 24th instant, from Captain Yelverton, of Majesty's ship Arrogant, information which appeared to render it desirable that he should again examine the south-western shores of the island of Kotka, I-took immediate measures to strengthen the squadron under his orders by the addi tion of four gunboats, to be detached from off Cronstadt by Rear-Admiral Baynes, togethe: with the further addi tion of four mortar-vessels from hence, which he hoped to bo able to employ. I have much satisfaction in transmitting for their lord ships' information the enclosed report of proceedings of Captain Yelverton, who, with the squadron under his or ders, has again succeeding in completing the destruction of buildings and military stores to a considerable extent on the island of Kotka ; and I beg once more to express my entire approbation of the manner in which he has exe cuted the service entrusted to him, and of the conduct of the officers and men employed on the occasion. I am happy in having this opportunity to recommend to the favourable notice of their Lordships the conduct of Mr. George Giles, Master of the Arrogant, and Mr. Mac farlane, the Master of the Magicienne, who have now been constantly employe l in those ships on the various services which I have recently had occasion to report.—l have, &c., (Signed) R.

Sir,—l have the honour to inform you that very early on the 26th I was joined, off the Island of Hogland, by the Cossack and Magicienne, bringing with them the mortar vessels Prompt, Pickle, Rocket, and Blazer. I stood im mediately to the northward, leaving the Ruby to bring on the gun-boats, which were not then in sight. They joined at noon, and at two p.m. we all anchored off Fort Rotsen sholm. As the safety of our expedition rested chiefly on our in• vesting and holding the entire possession of the fortified Island ef Kotka, I determined upon taking it at once. Ac cordingly I anchored the mortar vessels out of range, and leaving two gnn-boats to look after them, I proceeded with the rest of the vessels to the westward of Kotka, for the purpose of destroying the bridg e , so as t o cu t o ff th e retreat of the garrison, and prevent their receiving reinforcements from the mainland. Captain Vansittart of the Maaici enne, with his accustomed zeal and activity, threaded hig wayat once through the shoals and destroyed the bridge. A s soon as all the vessels had anchored, so as to command the great military road, leading from the fort of Hogfors Holm, and also the channel dividing the island from the main, I landed all the Marines under command of Captain S.

Joseph Smith Wooler, who is described as a landed proprietor, belonging to Great Burdon, was brought up before the county magistrates this forenoon for further examination, charged with poisoning his wife, Jane Wooler, on the 21th of June. Mr. Davison, of the Northern Circuit, and Mr. Rymer, of London, appeared for the procecution ; Mr. Henry Marshall, of Durham, defended the prisoner. The additional evidence was as follows : Dr. Richardson, an analytical chemist, who had been in practico twenty years in Newcastle-on-Tyne, said he received an earthenware jar from Dr. Jackson, of Dar lington, containing a portion of liver, kidneys, and stomach, and described the analysis which he made in his laboratory. After submitting the animal matter to the usual tests he detected arsenic ; no other metallic poison. By. Mr. Marshall—Stated at the inquest that he did not find much arsenic. From the medical evidence be had expected to find more. He adhered to that opinion. He was not aware that arsenic was used in glazing earthenware. By Mr. Davison—The jar that contained the viscera had no lead about it. By the Bench—Was not prepared to say that the quantity of arsenic that he detected was sufficient to de stroy life; that was a question for the medical man. Mr. Ralph Fortune, registrar of deaths at Keighton, which is the district in which Great Burden lies, went to Mr. Wooler's house on the 29th of June to register Mrs. Wooler's death. Mr. Wooler described himself as a landed proprietor. There was no medical certifi• cate. Witness asked the prisoner what was the cause of death, and he replied that the medical man stated that his wife had died of ulceration of the stomach and bowels. The Rev. Mr. Simpson, curate of Great Burdon, attended Mrs. Wooler in her last illness. Was present at her death, which took place on the 27th of June last. Believed that Me. Wooler was aware that she was dying. When lie went into Mrs. Wooler's room Mr. Wooler was not there. Mrs. Wooler was within two minutes of her death. He went in search of Mr. Wooler. Found him i❑ his bed-room. Said to him, " Are you aware that Mrs. Wooler is within one or two minutes of her death ?" He was partly undressed, and said, " Shall I go this way ?" Witness threw a cloak about his shoulders, and said, "Come along." Witness took him into the room. Mr. Wooler stood a minute, and said, " She has been a good wife tolme." He then abruptly said, " Are you going to Darlington to day ?" He left the room, and as witness came out he saw him washing himself in the room. By Mr. Marshall.—Did not kiss his wife, and say God bless her. Mr. and Mrs. Wooler attended his church, and so far as he could judge they always lived happily together. A fortnight before her death Mr. Wooler asked witness to offer up prayers publicly for her. Witness sent for Ann Taylor, one of Mrs. Wooler's domestics, after her death, and gave her some advice. Mrs. Wooler's body has been exhumed. He gave no order for it. _ Mrs. Mary Jackson, wife of Dr. Jackson, of Darling ton.—Remembers the time that her husband attended upon Mrs. Wooler. Made up no medicine for him dur ing that period. Had a key of a cupboard in the sur gery, but never used it during the time that the post mortem examination Wa3 made. Never saw a jar. s By Mr. Marshall.—Wrote a name upon one bottle for Mrs. Wooler. Took the bottles to Mr. Jackson, who was in bed, and he mixed the contents. He wrote the quantity that had to be taken each hour. Mr. Jackson has some of Fowler's solution in his surgery. It is kept in a bottle. She took a bottle of prussic acid up that morning to Mr. Jackson, and he dropped a little into a bottle among some water for Mrs. Wooler. Mr. Robson, superintendent of the rural police at Dar lington, said that Dr. Fotheringill and he made a partial search of Mr. Wooler's house atter the inquest. Found two medicine baskets. There were some bottles in them, but did not discover any bottle containing Fowler's solu tion. At the inquest Mr. Marshall, on behalf of Mr. Wooler, acquiesced in the propriety of having those baskets at the inquest. Since the inquiry last Monday a most minute search had been made at the house, and two enema pipes were found on a shelf in a small store room. No opposition was offered to the police. He understood that the police were expected at the house. Saw medicines at the house in possession of Mr. Wooler's servant girl. She has them in her possession. He did not bring it away. Mr. Wooler occupied the house three weeks after his wife's death. Mr. T. B. Teesdale, chemist and druggist at Darling. ton, occasionally made up medicines for Dr. Jackson. In the medicine made up by him for Mrs. Wooler there was no arsenic, or anything that could be mistaken for arsenic. A small portion of nux vomica—a grain to each pill—and as much of the extract of henbane as would make a pill, were among the prescriptions. Those me dicines were made up, and labelled under his own eyes. By Mr. Marshall—He had put as much as a grain of nux vomica into a pill before. By' Mr,. Davison—Nux vomica is a vegetable poison. Arsedic ia'a-metallic poison. By the tench—Could not tell whether nux vomica would producteietanic spasms at death. Mr. John Tomas Abbott, chemist at Darlington, has kM supplier.ooler with drugs—sometimes for bimself, somethyriog Mrs. Wooler. Never supplied him with a minorp.l poison. Supplied him with an ounce of laudanum in June. Had a conversation with Mr. Wooler on the Mpia,clay after his wife's death. Mr. Wooler asked him if he , had heard the slanderous reports circulated in Darlipgt,pn concerning his wife's death ? Witness said that ,his, had, and, that he thought it would be better that lad should stay at home until the matter was cleared up. Mr. Wooler said that he was a broken-hearted husband. Witness replied, that he did not think so. Mr. Wooler said, that if any one in the family had administered poison he hoped that it would be found out. By Mr. Marshall—Understood that the laudanum Mr, Wooler procured was for an injection. He subsequently called and said that the laudanum was not strong enough for the purpose, and that he had got a bottle from the doctor. By Mr. Davison—Mr. Wooler had a pretty good knowledge of medicine, and he talked about the injection with laudanum as for his wife. Mr. John R. Fotheringill, surgeon, of Darlington, knows the prisoner, Mr. Wooler, and remembers his wife's death. About a week before that occurrence he had a conversation with Mr. Wooler about an enema syringe. Mr. Wooler asked him for the loan of one of his. Ho let him have one. He gave it to his clerk. A. day or two after Mrs. Wooler's death he received it back again. He met Mr. Wooler, and he told him that it had acted admirably. He found it lying on his surgery table. It was wrapped up in a paper, and was returned with iMr. Wooler's thanks. Upon trying the tube he found it stopped up. He put it into a drawer. A fort night ago he took the tube out, and carefully withdrew the matter. He cut the tube up and submitted the whole to a careful test. He obtained arsenic from it. He had no doubt of it. It could not come from anything but the tube. He wrote to the gentleman from whom he had purchased the syringe, asking him if arsenic was used in the preparation of enema syringes ; and he replied that it was not. Was present when a portion of liver was analysed by Dr. Haslewood ; it was a portion that would not go into a jar. The piece of liver would not exceed ate ounce weight. Arsenic was detected in this small portion. By Mr. Marshall--Was present at the exhumation on Saturday morning. Dr. Robinson, Mr. Rayne, Dr. Haslewood, and Dr. Henzle were present. About a pound of the liver and the heart and lungs were taken out, and sent, in custody of the police, to Dr. Taylor, of London. Ann Taylor has been in Mr. Wooler's service since March in last year. Mrs. Wooler was not in good health at that time. She was weak and delicate. She began to be ill in May, a week before Dr. Jackson came. Her husband knew it. She complained of a pain in her breast. She was sick that night and vomited. They had no other servant but witness. She was not sick after that night. Deceased was of a sweet, gentle dispo sition. Miss Middleton, Miss Lanchester, and witness sometimes gave her the medicine prescribed by Dr. Jack son. Witness gave Mrs. Wooler injections many times. She understood that they came from Dr. Jackson. She made the injections. Half a drachm, and subsequently a drachm, of laudanum, was put into each injection. The laudanum was generally put in by her master. He did not tell her where he got it from. Mr. Wooler brought a syringe from Mr. Fotheringill, which she used. The syringes were washed out. She washed them out by her master's instructions. Mrs. Wooler vomited a good deal. Witness was sent for a bottle, which she received from Mrs. Jackson. Mr. Wooler gave her the first dose. She immediately vomited. Dr. Jackson came and gave her a second dose. She did not vomit. Mr. Wooler subse quently gave her another dose, and she immediately after vomited. Mr. Wooler gave her the medicine out of a teaspoon. Witness has some bottles with medi cine in her possession. Mr. Wooler kept a medicine bottle. The store-room was locked, and the servants were not allowed to go into it. By the Bench--When Mr. Wooler gave his wife the medicine at the time mentioned in her evidence he put something into it. By Mr. Rymer—When Mrs. Jackson became ill on the Ist May she took some soup at dinner. Mr. Wooler did not take any soup. He did not like soup. Witness gathered up all the medicine bottles when the medical certificate arrived stating that Mrs. Wooler had died of poison. After good deal of hesitation, witness said that she could not tell why she had gathered the bottles up and put them into her box. Has been talked' to by Mr. William Wooler with regard to the poisoning of Mrs. Wooler. He has been at Great Burdon since Mr. Wooler's apprehension. Could not remember any conversation that she had with him. Part of the bottles have been emptied out. On cross-examination by Mr. Marshall, on behalf of Mr. Wooler, the witness. Taylor stated, that the vomits and excretions were taken away by the surgeons. Mrs. Wooler did not like to have a nurse, and she was at tended by Miss Bricknell, Miss Lanchester, and wit ness. In answer to Mr. Davicon, Fhe said that she took particular care of the vomits, &c. In answer to the Bench she said, that she could not tell who it was told her to put the bottles into her box. The Chairman—She appears to be t9tally oblivious of everything on one side of the subject, and to have a very distinct knowledge of everything that has happened on the other. Mr. Davison (after the appearance of the servant girl to-day) 'aid he would exercise his discretion as to call ing any other of the household. He would now ask a remand until they procured the analysis from Professor Taylor. The case was then remanded until Saturday. Miscellaneous. Some workshops, a quantity of squared timber and stacks of staves prepared for manufacturing handspikes, tent poles, sponge staves, and several thousand loads of cut firewood. H. R.
