Tae grand full-dress ball, however, comes off to-merrew night, and winos up the festival. ' The cathedral was well filled again this morni, g. • The programme was a lengthy one, and hal not been got through when the last available train left Hereford for London. It consisted of Mendelesohn's " Hymn of Praise ;" Spohr's sacred cantata, "The Christian's Prayer ;" and Mozart's " Twelfth Service." At the mil nesucernent of the second part also was playee an over turn (St. Polycarp) not generally known in the musical world. It is written by the Rev. - Sir F. A. Gore Ou.eley,, Bart., prec,iutor of Hereford Cathedral, and successor to Sir D. Bishop at Oxford. Before Mozart's Service we had Martin Luther's Hymn most devotionally sung by Clete, Novello. The introduction of the trumpet by Harper, at the words, " The trumpet sound.," produced a thrilling effect, and altogether this hymn produced the deepest sen sation. Sims Reeves also sang (between the oratnrie” the air, "Sound an alarm," from Judas Illaccubceus The principal vocal parts were sustained this morning hy Mdme. Novello, Mrs. Weiss, and Mr. Sims Reeves. The lovely duet, "I waited for the Lord," sung I.y Clara Novello and Mr. Weiss, was repeated by desire. Sims Reeves delivered the dramatic passage, " Watch man, will the night soon pass?" with. admirable judg ment. The fine cberaie, " Let all men praise the Lew," produced a deep impression ; and at the succeeding chortee, " Glory and praise to God," the bishop 'eke, and re mained• standing until its close—an example which, of course, was followed by the rest of the cothpany. The same respect was shown to the concluding part of the last chorus, at the words " Hallelujah ! Sing to the Lord." Mozart's Twelfth Service concluded the COO - cert, the, audience standing during the "Sanctus. " The collection at the doors amotreted to 2151. 15s. 11d, ILLREFORD, Friday.—The third and last concert yes. terday evening was the longest of the three. The per formances began. with the overture and a vocal selection from Der Freisohutz—comprising the scene for tenor (Mr. Sims Reeves) the drinking song of Casper (Mr. Weiss), the Peen a of Agatha (Madame Novello), the trio for two s opraeo a and tenor in the second act (Miss Moor, Mrs. Weis, and Mr. M. Smith), the second air of Ann ',hen (Mrs. Weiss), tbe "Bridesmaid's chorus" (solo Mee. Weiss), seed the "Huntsman's chorus." The exc. cution of thee,* pieces was very creditable. Madame Grist then sae g exquisitely " Qui la voee" ( I Puritani), and an encore d ernai.ded. Miss Dolby was also obliged to repeat Men, iclasohn's "First Violet," with an orches tral accompar, itnent by Mr. Alfred Mellon. She per formed her dr rty in tbe most graceful manner. Two more pieces ref pained to complete the first pea, viz., the duet between tonna and Ernesto ( Don Pasquale), and thesacrificial mt arc le and chorus from The Ruins of Athens. Th e first was well sung by Grisi and Mario ; the la-r, a composition of i Oppressive grandeur and beauty, was remarkably well executed by the band and chorus. The second part , r f t h e concert opened with Mozart ' s ernPhony in E it, The peformance of this fine work was extremely go od. The remainder of the concert con sisted of a. mince flaneous selection, and concluded with "God save th e Queen " (solos by Mada me Cl ara No vello,. D c , 4 by; Mr. Sims Reeves, and M r . Weise). The attends .nce this morning at the cathedral was in,- manse, al thor igh the weather was anything but law ur able. The 0 rntorio was . The Messiah. The execution of this noble , work was faultless. The solo parts were sustained I , y Madame Clara Novello. Miss Dolby, Mrs. Weiss, Mil is Moss, Mr. Sims Reevee, Mr. Weiss, and Mr. M. Si p ith. There were present no less than 1,111 persons. Rossini.

Thomas Beal, 58, conductor, David Pollock, 35, dealer, and David Barnett, 30, watch maker, were indicted for receiving a quantity of jewellery, watches and other property, belonging to Mesar,. Deane and Dray. They were found guilty and senta need to 14 years transportation. THIRD COURT. (Before Russel Gurney, Esq., Q.C.) William Buckingham, a gentlemanly, well•dressed man, a dissenting minister, surrendered to take his trial upon an indictment, charging him with having obtained from William Ssmuel Burton and two other persons small sums of money by false pretences, with intent to defraud. Mr. Payne appeared for the prosecution which had been instituted by the Mendicity society ; Mr. Robinson defended. William Samuel Burton, an ironmonger, in Oxford street, stated thatsome time in February last defendant called upon him, and said, " I have called for your sub scription." Witness had been a subscriber to the Lon don Sailors' Mission, and gave defendant, whom he be lieved to be the accredited collector, the sum of 10s., but witness being called away, he did not give him a receipt. He called again in May, when witness recalled it to his memory, and defendant said he had best give another. Other evidence was given to show that defendant had obtained other sums from different persons for the Lon don &Hors' Mission. Henry Major, an officer of the Mendicity Society, said that having received information that defendant was going round collecting subscriptions for a society that had ceased to exist, he went upon the 30th of June last, to No. 4, Emily-place ' Leytonstone-road, Essex. He told defendant he took him into custody for obtaining money in aid of the London Sailors' Mission, which had ceased to exist. Defendant said there bad been such a society. Witness said, "I am aware of that ; but it has not been in existence for two years. I have seen Mr. Rayner, who was originally the treasurer. There is no such society in existence." When the defendant was before the magistrate the first time he pressed for a summary conviction, admitting the charge. Mr. Robinson—We shall see about that. What did he say ? Witness—He pressed for a summary conviction, and so did his solicitor, Mr. Lewis, who is sitting there. Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, said he did not do anything of the kind. The officer again persisted that it was so ; stating that at the first examination he was undefended, but that upon the second time of hearing the charge, Mr. Lewis, who appeared, said that the case would give Mr. Burton much trouble, and pressed for it to be settled by the magistrate. Mr. Lewis again denied that he had done so. Mr. Robinson—Why, did not Mr. Lewis say that if the decision of the magistrate was against the prisoner, he would request it to be sent before a jury ? The witness still persisted that defendant pressed for the magistrate to decide the charge summarily. Mr. Gurney—What did he say ? Witness—He said that if he had done anything wrong he was willing to abide the decision of the law. Mr. Gurney—That is quite a different thing from an admission of guilt by the defendant. It was stated that defendant had said the London Sailors' Mission was held at Messrs. Sharp and Rickett's Regent's Dock, Limehouse ; and a clerk from that firm was called to show that no such mission was held there, neither had any letters to prisoner been taken in there. Cross-examined—Had seen the defendant about two years ago preaching to sailors in the ships. The receipts given by the defendant were on behalf of the London Sailors' Mission. Several missionaries from the different societies for the diffusion of religious instruction amongst seamen were called to prove that no such society as the London Sailors' Mission was known to them, but about two years ago there was a London Sailors' Society. Mr. William Rayner, formerly treasurer to the Lon• don Sailors' Society, said that defendant had been strongly recommended to that society to preach for it. Witness was not now connected with it, but heard it hail changed its name. Mr. Robinson—To the London Sailors' Mission ? Witness—Yes. Thomas Young was secretary to the London Sailors' Society, which he believed still to be in existence under the name of the London Sailor's Mission. It has a vice president, a Mr. Habershon, the architect, and several noble patrons. The vice-president had said that defend ant was recognised as an agent to the society. Mr. Gurney said after that statement it would be use• legs to go on ; there was no chargeagainSt the defendant. Mr. Robinson said his client was a gentleman of the highest respectability, and possessing some little for tune, which he expended in religious works for seamen. There were a number of gentlemen of high standing to speak to defendant's respectability. Mr. Payne expressed his doubts about the existence of the society. Mr. Gurney—No doubts ought to be expressed after the breaking down of the case by the witnesses for the prosecution. Mr. Robinson—lt is the jealousy of one society against another. - Mr. Gurney—Before a powerful society like the Men dicity Society take such steps as these a proper inquiry should have been made. Mr. Payne—No evidence of this nature was brought before the magistrate. Mr. Robinson—We had them present. Mr. Payne—No. The defendant, who seemed considerably bewildered at his position, said he could assure the jury he had no dishonest intention. The Foreman said he had nooccasion to tell them that. Mr. Gurney said the expenses of the prosecution would not be allowed. Mr. Payne (with some warmth)—The society do no take their expenses. Mr. Gurney—They are not allowed. Let the defend ant leave the dock. He did so, and upon getting outside the court was greeted with considerable cheering, apparently from a number of seamen. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. —Edward Agar, who was some days ago chargeir with having uttered a forged cheque for 7001., upon the banking-house of Salt, Stevenson, and Co., of Lornbard-street, was brought before Sir R. W. Carden for further examination. Mr. Mullein, solicitor to the Committee of Bankers' for Protection against Forgeries and Frauds, appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Wontner for the defence. Since the first examination it has been discovered that the prisoner had been concerned in a great many oases of forgery, and it is believed that he is at present the possessor of property to the amount of upwards of 15;000/. William Smith, who at the commencement of the ie vestigation stated that the prisoner had employed him, after several interviews, to apply to the banking-house fur payment of the cheque,. which was drawn in the name of Mr. John Deverell, of Penbrook Park, near Cosham, and detailed the particulars, was again called by Mr. Mullens. He gave the foil swing additional evidence : In the ceoirse of my conversation with the prisoner we had some talk respecting my faMily and part history. I told him what relatives I bad, and what parties; would speak as to the respectabivity of my character ; and I gave him references to Mr. Wheeler, 24, Poultry, who is my brother in-law ; Mr. Deailook, of Buckingham-place, Fitzroy-quare, church warden of Trinity Courch, St. Msrylebone ; and Mr. Mills, 430, Oxford-street. He appeared to take a great interest in my history and family. The first person to whom I mentioned this ma'ter Was Mr. Rowe, hairdresser and perfumer, in Holborn, near opposite to Clianczry-lane. Cross-examined by Mr. Wontzner—l saw the prisoner first at the house of Mr. Huurephreys, in ' King'ieroad, house agent and appraiser. I aid not live there. I men•l tinned the circumstance to him ; hut he was the second party to whom I mentioned it. He was the party I re ferred to as the person to whom; I bad mentioned it on the Thursday. It was on Tuesday or Wednesday I mentioned it to Mr. Rowe. I tliiink it was on the Wed nesday. I did not say on the last examination that I had mentioned it only to one person. I said I had men tioned it to a friend. I am not in anyboily's service. My lather was a cabinet-maker, in Bistiop's-court, Old Bailey, and I worked there. I lived in my last lodgings about tive months, and at 27, Buckingham -place, Fitzroy -square, before that for six or seven months ; and before that I was in business as an eating-house keeper, at 118, St. George's-street, East. Before that I lived at No. 5, Sing-street, Pall-mall. I kept a lodging-house there, and before that I was at No. 24, Tottenham -street, Tottenham-court-road. Before that I was with my father and mother, at No. 167, Drury-lane. Mr. Wontner—Do you recollect any other addresses I Witness—No. I have given you all my addressee from the time I was at home with my father and mother. Re-examined—My father had workshops in Bishop's court. Sit' R. W. Carden—What first excited your suspicions about the integrity of the prisoner! Witness— I first suspected him when he spoke of get ting me to present a cheque. On the Saturday or the Monday a friend of mine, who had seen me in conver,a tion with Mr. Jenkins (the prisoner), asked me what we had been in conversation about. I would not then satisfy- him. The offer of the 1001. to me areused my suvicion, aFd after that I communicated with my friend on the subject. Mr. John Deverell, of .renbrook Park, Cosbam, about six miles from Pert:-ea, said--I am a magistrate of the county,. and I keep an account at Messrs. Salt and Stevenerion's, and have done so for many years. The sig nature to the cheque produced is not in my handwriting, nor, was rt written by my authority. J. J. Thoroughgood said—l am nephew to Mr. J. Forrester, the Mansion-House officer, and I was em ployed to assist him in this business. In the afternoon of Wednesday, the 15th of August, about five o'clock, I was in the neighbourhood of Bedford-raw with Mr. God dard, and I saw the withess Smith standing at the corner of Bedford-row and Theobald's-road. At about a quar ter past five o'clock I saw the prisoner come up Bed ford-row from the Holborn end. He and Smith net, and I saw them shake hands. They conversed to gether. They afterwards walked up Bedford-row to the corner of Princes-street. The prisoner turned round and looked towards me. Goddard was with me then. They walked d own P r i nces - street, Red Lion-square, Leigl, street, Es g l e - s t ree t , to Kingvate-street, and wer e t a lki ng togeth er as they walked along. The prisoner turned round seve.ral times, and looked b ac k- and when I go t to Klogegtite-street'Smith was alone. From what Smith then said to me I ran through Turnstile as fast as I could, and whe n I got Into Gate-street I saw the soner running. I followed him thsoUgh Great Queen- L COUICT. Tfit - SUN , l iitON DON,: street, Little Queen -street, and into Parker-street, and I was calling out " Stop thief." The prisoner was running very fast, and I followed him as fast as I could run. As I turned toe corner of Parer-street. the prisoner was cowing towards me. with his hat off, and in his hand. He said to me, " That way," pointing down Parker street, and I laid hold of him. I said to him, "You are the man, come on." He said. " You make a mistake ; I have done nothing." I said to him, " Come on ; you will hear about it presently." I was turning the corner of Parker-street into Little Queen-street, when Goddard came up and took hold of the prisoner's other arm, and we then took him ir_to a shop. The prisoner said to Goddard, " What is it you want ? I have done nothing," and repeated that several times. Goddard said, " This young man (meaning Smitb) has been watched from the bank in Lombard-street, and you have received something from him. What have you done with it?" The prisoner then put his right hand into his left breast coat-pocket, and took out the red canvas bag pro duced, and gave it t) Mr. Goddard. I had brought the witness Smith into the , hop out of the crowd just before the conversation took place, and they were both brought to the Mansion-house. In Mr. Forrester's room, at the Mansion-house, they were talking together, but I did not hear what was said. They appeared to be acquainted with each other. The depositions were ordered to be taken on the case, and Mr. Deverell was bound over to appear to give evi dence. Mr. Mullen! said he found it necessary to have the prisoner remanded to another day, when he should produce evidence as to the prisoner being in posse,sion of plates for the striking off of banker's cheques, from one of which plates a cheque had been struck off some time ago, and with success as to the receipt of the amount. BOWSTREET.—THE CASE or STRAHAN AND CO. —Sir John Dean Paul was brought up yesterday from the House of Detention, to be admitted to bail. Mr. Humphreys, the solicitor for the prosecution, in formed the magistrate (Mr. Henry) that he was perfectly satisfied with the names of the gentlemen now tendered as bail. They were Mr. Thotnas Graham, of Reading, and Mitre-court Chambers, Temple, and Mr. John Woodhall, coach-builder, of 28, Orchard-street, Port man-square. The usual formal questions having been put to the bail, they were bound over in 3,0001. each, and Sir John Paul, having entered into his personal recognisance for 6,0001., was set at liberty, and left the court with his friends. Mr. Henry expressed a hope that all the parties in the case would be present at the next examination, in order that some arrangement might be effected by which the case should be adjourned over until a future day, and then be finally disposed of. Now that all the pri soners had succeeded in getting bail it would be com petent to the magistrate to remand the inquiry for a greater period than a week ; and it would be especially desirable for the convenience of the bail, that some such a course should be adopted. Mr. Humphreys quite concurred in the suggestions of the court, and would give all the assistance in his power to have it carried out. LAMBETH. ALLEGED DISAGREEABLE NUISANCE. —Yesterday Messrs. Lauton and Miskin, medical gen tlemen, residing at the Westminster-road end of York road, Lambeth, accompanied by several gentlemen in the neighbourhood, waited on Mr. Elliott, to complain of the very great risk to which they were subjected, both as regards their lives and their property, by what they conceived to be the dangerous state of the premises of Mr. George Myers, the extensive builder, in the Bel videre-road, Lambeth. Three weeks since Mr. Myers had been summoned to this court under the Smoke Nuisance Act, for using on his premises a furnace constructed so as not to consume its own smoke, and on that occasion some of the respec table inhabitants of the neighbourhood attended, and complained of the great danger and serious inc niveni ence to which they had been subjected by the descrip tion of fuel consumed in his furnaces (sawdust and wood by Mr. Myers, which caused a discharge from the shaft of the chimney of red-hot flakes of wr od, which fell on the houses, the premises around, causing not only great alarm, but very serious danger to the houses on which it fell, and also serious injury to linen or any articles hung out to dry. The result or the iuvescigation was, that Mr. Myers was convicted in the penalty of 51., and thus the matter stood until Tuesday evening last, when a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. Myers, which had the effect of considerably increasing the former fears of his neighbours, and led to the present deputation to the msg,ristr.ite. One of the gentlemen, addressing Mr. Elliott, ob served that the proceedings which bad taken place at this court in reference to the premises of Mr. Myers, hsving had no effect in the abatement of the dangerous nuisance complained of, and the inhabitants of the vicinity being still subjected to the greatest possible ann.lance, they (the deputation) in justice to them selves and their neighbours, felt it to be their duty to wait on his worship, and take his advice as to the best means of putting an end to a nuisance, which not only kept them in a continual state of fear, but seriously en dangered their lives and property. The gentleman here exhibited to the magistrate some large pieces of charred wood, such as were emitted from the chimnies in an ig nited state, in such quantities that the roofs and gutters were filled with them, and said that the fire on Mr. Myers's premises on Tuesday last, and which was the third that had occurred since he had been there, had tended t 3 increase the fears of the inhabitants of the im mediate vicinity ; and thiergh it was by no means their wish to interfere vexatiously with Mr. Myers's enter prise, yet they felt it to be but justice to the security of their lives and property to come forward and use every means to remove the nuisance. Mr. Mott I bserved that there were three modes of redress open to those aggrieved. The first was by action against Mr. Myers for the injury they sustained ; the second was to proceed by an indictment at the sessions ; and the third by reporting to the Secretary of State the continued violation of the Smoke Act. A Second Member of the deputation observed that when the premises occupied by Mr. Myers were in the occupation of Mr. Pet°, no such nuisance as that com plained of was allowed. At that time an engine and a large tank of water were on the premises, and the latter was always kept ready for use in (lase of necessity ; but at present be understood it was quite useless. A Third Member of the depw ation inquired if Mr. Myers had paid the penalty of 6/. which had been iii poled upon him by his worship, and if that had been his first offence ? Mr. Elliott replied that the offence had been the first as regarded a particular chimney, though not the fir,t, and as respected the penalty it appeared it had not been yet paid. _ _ Oiher Members of the deputation complained of the exceedingly dangerous state of the nui-ance, and the absolute necessity of its immediate suppression ; when Mr. Elliott repeated his former 9tatement, and recom mended another representation to the Secretary of State, which would, he had no doubt, be attended to. The deputation then withdrew. CHARGE OF MATRICIDE. Yesterday Isabella Mary Jolley underwent another lengthened examination, charged with the murder of her mother, at the Westminster Police-court. The previous evidence was fully detailed in our last. Mr. Lewi-, jun., as before, appeared on behalf of the prisoner, who was, as on the former occasion, calm throughout. The following fresh evidence was given : Rowena Floyd, of 11, Brompton-road, Knightsbridge, milliner and dress-maker, sworn—l am single. I hai • been in the habit of knowing the prisoner eight or nine months, but have not seen her frequently till the last eight or nine weeks. She appeared in a very despondin g state, from the circumstance of not having let her lodgings and becoming embarrassed. Last Thursday week, between 9 and 10 in the morning, the prisoner called on rue and t , ]ld me she had had an interview with her brother at Mrs. Fisher's. I said, " I hope you have come to some terms with your brother about leaving your house ?" She said, "He wishes me to give up my house, sell part of my furniture, and. get into a smaller one." I said, "That is- the advice I would give you. What will he do for, your mother ?" meaning what would he allow her per week. She replied, " She wants no mere—she is dead !" I said, " Oh, Miss Jolley, you cannot mean that !" She replied, " How oddly you look at me !" I fell back in my chair, and was almost insensible. She (lid net ap pear affected, ss I should have thought she would have been when she said it, knowing particularly how mach she was attached to her mother. Ido not remember any further remark, but her saying "It is ten—l must gn ; my brother and a broker are to be at the house at that time." Mrs. Jane Johnson sworn—l saw the prisoner on the 16th of August at No. 11, Brompton-row, at my sist-r's (last witness). She said she bad seen her brother the night before. I said I was glad of this. I hop-il be would do something for her. She said he was cnming next morning to make some arrangements about their affairs, but he could do nothing more for them. I said, "He must do something for your mother." "She replied, "My mother will want no more ; she is dead." I did not take much notice, thinking her mind was affected. She continued her observations about the house and the arrangements to be made. She then repeated, "My poor mother !" I said, "You don't mean to say she is dead ?" She said, "Yee; the blo w was t oo gre a t f or her." I look e d a t her very hard, and she said, "How oddly you look at me ! I wish I could have destroyed myself, but I bad not the power." I went down stairs and let her out. I saw her go the reverse way to her house. I watched her into a cutler's shop in Brompton row. My sister told me to go and look after her, and I went. The cutler was rubbing a razor. I said, "Mi-s Jolley, what are you doing here?" She said, "It won't be a minute. I• am coming directly." I said, "you don't want the razor; come along with me." I made mo- Cone to the cutler riot to let her have the razor,and be nod ded, as though he understood me. She came out directly, and came with me to my door. I said, "Whatareyou going to do with that razor?" She smiled and said, "All right; I am going home." I said, " Make haste, your brother will be there waiting for you. It is his time." I went back to the cutler's, and afterwards to Miss Jolley's house. I asked for her of the servant at the door, and prisoner called to me from up stairs, and I went up to her. I then asked her if I should go for her brother. She said it was no use, as she expected him every minute. I asked her if there was any other person I could go to for ?I s h r e s . w T a a , y t l o o l r d , '' thatbut h eadded mothert ri w as s h o e he r. nervous r S v h o e u said, ad thati , al she would not come. I said, " I won't tell her your mo ther is dead, but that she is dangerously ill." I then went to Mrs. Taylor, who said she would come. I went back and told Miss Jolley, and I then left her. James Leslie Rogers sworn—l am an assistant to Mr. Woods, of 21, - Brompton-row, surgeon. 'Yesterday SATURDAY EirgiVlNn: AUGUST 25 1855 (Thursday) week, about ten o'clock in the morning, I•vvas fetched to 33, Hill-street. When I go t th ere I went up stairs into the t,econd-floor front. There were Mr. Hugrard, the police-60rgeant, Mr. Cripo. arid the prisoner present. saw the body of a female lying across the bed, with her feet resting upon a chair, the back of which was to wards the window. I removed the shawl which covered her, and found the night-gown was s tturated with blood. I removed a handkerchief from her throat, and f mod she -was colourless, perfectly dead, cold, and stiff. I said I could do nothing, and went down stairs. Mr. Arnold—Were you enabled to form any opinion of when the deceased died ?—Witness—Only from the conversation I had with the prisoner. I asked at what time it occurred, and she said, "Six this morning." She said, iu reply to my further inquiries, that she was pre sent, that her mother got out of bed to obey the calls of nature, and in a moment afterwarls she beard say, "How wet I am f I am dying," and she (prisoner) looked up and saw her mother covered with blood. She thtn stated that t , he lifted her mother's legs on the chair as they were found, as she did not like to see them banging over the bed. muriatic acid iu this instance was merle by him ,elf. The heart was next examined ; it had been cus open, leaving the cevitiee exp )s.d. The mte,reil substance of this oreae was firM : feel the valves tree feorn flieease, The heare weighed GI ounces, about the ever age fir a woman. It ens cut into two parts, one being analysed by Dr. Rees, the other be witness. Dr. Rees is assistant phy srctan to Guy's Hospital. Both portions of the heart contained arsenic. The analyses were conducted sepa rately, and exchanged for the purpose of examination by each other. Some of the arsenic is now pro duced. The lungs were next analysed, but they were so putrified that it was impossible to give any opinion about their diseased or healthy condition. A bout four ounces were submitted to analysis, and with results similar to the previous investigations. (A portion of the arsenic deposited on copper was now produced.) The liquid from the abdomen was next examined It consisted of blood of about one-third of au ounce by measure. It was examined for any sediment of arsenic, but there was no mineral sediment of any kind. The liquid contained arsenic in a small degree, as witness found on analysis. The arsenic was in melution, not in powder. The intestines were then examined. They were partly entire, and partly cut open. They bad on some parts a dark red colour from inflammation. In one spot the Mucous membrane was ulcerated. There was no appear. ance of arsenic in or ah,est this spot. It was examined by a magnifying glass. In some parts the intestines and their contents were perfectly black ; this was a very unusual appearance. Found that the cause of this colour was owing to the presence of some preparation of iron. One-half of the intestines was analysed, and a small portion of arsenic detected. The r cturn or lower bowel was then examined. It had been perdy cot up so as to exiles() the inside. The inner portion in some parts was reddened by inflammation. There was a patch of ulcera tion about the centre of its length. Ie another part of the surface the same black-looking substance was found which had been previously mentioned. The surface of the rectum was examined by a magnifying glass, but there was no trace of powder anywhere. The whole of it was analysed, and a larger proportion of arsenic was found than in the other portion of the bowels. It is a common circumstance to find a larger proportion of arsenic in the rectum than in the other parts of the in testines, from this cause, that when a person is poisoned by arsenic it generally passes rapidly from its irritating properties over the intermediate tract of the bowels. The conc'usion which witness drew from hie exami nations and analyses were—first, that arsenic was present in small quantities in all parts of the body of the deceased which were submitted to examina tion. Second, that in the liver, heart, and lungs, the arsenic was incorporated with the structure of these organs, and that it had been depo .ited there at a pre vious absorption during life. Third, that the quantity of arsenic yielded by the diff-rent parts varied, considering the weight of animal matter to be equal in each analysis ; greatest in the rectum, next in the heart, third in the bloody liquid of the abdomen, fourth in the liver, fifth in the whole intestines, and sixth its the lungs. The fourth conclusion arrived at was that all the arsenic con tained in the parts examined was extracted. The whole quantity extracted from the parts examined was estimated at about one grain. Fifth, that the appearance presented by the liver was not such as would be produced by arsenic; it was owing to disease, there could be no doubt of it; the lady had lived in a tropical climate, and the "tatty de veneration" presented the appearance of disease, tieing originated in that way or in persons labouring under con sumption. Sixth, the inflamed and ulcerated condition of the rectum and intestines might have arisen either from the action of arsenic or disease. Seventh, that the poison had probably been taken in small doses during life ; and, eighthly, that the quantity of arsenic foued in the body, and the circumstances under which it was found, were quite sufficient to account for the death of the deceased. Whether the person died from arsenic cr not must depend on the amount of evidence before the magistrates, because the quantity found on a dead body might depend on many circumstances—on the vomiting, purging, or loss by absorption, and passing off during life ; and whether the deceased in this case died from arsenic must depend on the symptoms during life and the appearances presented by the body recently after death. He was prepared to say most distinctly that the arsenic had been given during life, because it was found in the inner region of the heart, where it was impossible that it could have been unless taken be fore death. His opinion was, that the arsenic, in in this instance, had been taken in small doses, and in solution, becaues no trace of it in powder could be fount]. It was impossible to say how the arsenic had been taken, because the poison is so quickly absorbed, that whether in beer, milk, food, or medicine its effects were entirely the same. There was no such thing as morbid action for the production of arsenic ; it was impossible tbat the poison could he produced in any such manner, and the remark of Orfila, that arsenic was found in every substance, was afterwards withdrawn by him, and the error stated to have arisen solely from the use of impure acid in analysis, After the examination of Professor Taylor, two bas kets of drugs were produced, many of the medicines being of a very deadly nature, but the whole of them were correctly labelled, and with the exception of one, on which sweet spirits of nitre was placed, all had answered to their specific character, and no suspicious circumstances attached to them. No solution of arsenic had been found. On the conclusion of the case for the prosecution, the Bench, in answer to a question from the solicitor for the prisoner, stated that their opinion was, that evi , lence sufficient ha l been produced to warrant them in com mitting the prisoner for trial, and the defence was, therefore, withheld for the present, and the prisoner removed to gaol.

CHILD MIIIIDER AT BRISTOL.—ThP mutilated remains of Melinda Payne were interred on Thursday in Clifton churchyard, in the presence of a large concourse of spec tators. Notwithstanding the police have been iniefa tigable in their researches, nothing has been elicited which throws any light on this mysterious murder. [ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills a certain re medy for Liver and Stomach Complaints:— The daughter of Mr. Thomas Todd, of Houghton-le -Spring, was for a long time afflicted with a disordered state of the liver, bowel complaint, indi./estion, and sickness after par taking of any trod, however simple. She had recoure to a variety of remedies. but unfortunately without being bei;efitt.al ; at last, like thousands of others, the commenced taking Holloway's Pills, and by persevering with this admirable remedy for four week" she was per fectly cured, and now eojoya the best of health. Sold by all medicine vendors throughout the world, at pro lessor Iloilo ,way's E-tabliAhroentg, 244, Strand, Lour on; and 80, Maiden-lane, New Y,,rit - ; by A. Stainpa, Con. stantinople ; A. Guidicy, Smyrna ; and IL Hood, I Malta, Mr. Arnold—Did she say what she did next ?—W, ness—Yes ; she said that after she had done that she laid down on the bed, on the other side of the body, and that her mother was lying on the same side as when she went to bed on the previous night. She said she did not call anybody, because she disliked the servant girl, and expected her brother at ten that morn ing. She said she did not leave the room till eight in the morning, and that she bad her breakfast brought up as usual by the servant. I had heard of her having gone out that morning, and spoke to her about it, and she said she had been to Larburg's, the cutler's, to get the razor sharpened again. I asked her what for, and she said to cut her own throat ; that she had tried it before, and the cut was gone off it. I then looked at her throat, and saw a few scratches there. The police -sergeant showed me the razor, and I told him he h a d b e tt er keep it. She seemed rather uneasy at having the razor kept from her, and said, " I don't know what right you have to take away my property." I told her it was not right she should take away her life, and the razor must be kept from her. She said to me, " I shall profit nothing by mother's death." I asked her why she wanted to make away with herself, and she said she bad nothing to live for now her mother was dead. In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis the witness ;aye a particular description of the situation of the bed and furniture in the room. The deceased was lying near the centre of the bed, With her feet towards the window. There was an impression upon the bed, but witness could not say whether two persons had slept there ; it was impossible for him to say, for a person sat upon the bed, and nee of the pillows was close down to the bo ly. It was quite possible for prisoner on the other side of the bed to have reached the breast of the deceased. Prisoner did not tell witness she reached the breast of the de ceased ; she said she put her hand and found it covered with blood. There was no blood about the room, but a few spots that had trickled down the body. There was no congealed blood on the floor, but the blood on the bed was congealed. Believed the marks of blood on the floor had trickled down her legs. The chair on which deceased's legs rested was about two feet fr in the bedstead, and the same distance from the window. . Mr. William Martyn. of 14, B:oeipton-row, member of the Royal College of Surgeons, proved the nature and extent of the wound in deceased's throat. She had been dead a considerable time when he was called at one o'clock in the day. There was no mark of any other in jury but upon the throat, which was cut. The wound was upwards of four inches in length on the left side of her throat, gaping upwards of an inch, penetrating to the spiral column, and deepest about the middle part, where it rescued the bone. It seemed to have been done with a sl - arp instrument, and as it with one sweep of t•.he instrument. The wouud in the throat was the cause of death. Mr. Arnold : A person with such a wound would die from effusion of filo° I —Mr. Martyn : Yes, sir. Mr. Arnold : Can you form any opinion of the direc tion of the wennd ?—Mr. Martyn : I could not say. Mr. Lewis: Would such a wound have been followed by an ieiniediate and large effusion of blood ?—Mr. Mar tyn : It would. Mr•. Lewis : Did you notice the hands of the deceased ? —Mr. Martyn : I did so carefully. Mr. Lewis—Was there any blood on them ?—Mr. Martye—On both. The inner part of the wrist or heed of the right sleeve of the bedgown was marked with hlod, !ted a little above it. The outside of the sleeve, about the elbow, was marked with some spots of blood. The left arm was lying in a pool of blood by the side of the body. There was no blood on the right side, except on the hand and night-dress sleeve. Mr Lewis—Would such a wound as you have de scribed in tawlyhave caused death?—Mr. Martyn—Yes, almost instantly. Mr. Arnold —You have seen the razor ; would you think that likely to have produced the wound Martyn Y es. Mr. Lewis--You have no doubt seen many cases in the course of your experience. Did you see anything about the bed indicating a struggle ?—Mr. Martyn— There was nothing about the bed by which I could form any sue) opinion. Mr. Lewis—Was the bed in such a state as conse quent uron a body have fallen back, as if she had cut her own throat ?—Mr. Martyn—l can't say it was in any other condition. Mr. Lewis—Perfectly consistent with that. Mr. Lewis then questioned the medical gentleman several times, with a view of eliciting whether, after the infliction of such a wi , und, the arm of the deceased would not instantly fall back and become perfectly powerless ; but Mr. Martyn thought not, considering it more natural that some movement of the arm would Mr. Beckerson, an inspector of the A division, was examined and cros , -examined at very considerable length, besides being severely rated by Mr. Lewis I , r having questioned the prisoner for some time previous to taking her into custody. Tile inspector declarer! that in his desire to elicit the truth of the matter he bad questioned the prisoner in the presence of her brother and other friends, having repeatedly cautioned her that she need not reply unless she pleased, and that her answers might be - used against her. After a lengthened investigation at the house he felt it his duty to order the prisoner into cu.tody. Mr. Lewis in good set terms complained that it was disgraceful to treat an alleged murderess in such a way. Mr. Ara yid exproAsed his opinion that Inspector Beckerson had done perfectly right. The inspector's evidence was but a repetition of the servant's, Sergeant M‘Lend's, and other witnesses already given, with the additi in that the prisoner sud denly observed while in conversation, " Do you suspect me to have done it ?" and was very much excited all the time this in=peet.r was making his inquiries. Up, n k?ari ng the inspacttor say, " It is now time for me to tell you I suspect you, and I feel it my duty take you into custody," the prisoner wished to go upst.sirs into her tiedroom, and there changed her clothes, when there were marks of blood upon the flap of the chemise she took off. An impertant addition to the testimony already given that Sergeant M‘Leod picked up the skirt of a netticoat under the deceased's bed, which was wet where there was no blood, part of it having apparently heeii recently washed, which prisoner immediately said was hers, and that she had used it to wipe up the bin el. By Mr. Lewis—She made no hesitation in letting me see her under garment. It being now beyond the usual hour of the court rising, Mr. Arnold further remanded the prisoner fur a week. The prisoner, who appeared faint and weak, accele rated by the crowded state of the court, was then re moved and supported by her friends to the gaoler's room. THE SLOW POISO‘ING CASE. DARLINGTOY, Friday. —'this case was resumed to day. Mr. Ford, solicitor, L. , ndon, for the defence. The Clerk of the Magistrates read a letter from Mr. George Smith, the solicitor f..r the prosecution, which stated that in future, in cmsequence of the great ex pense attending the prosecution, Mr. Rymer would alone appear. Mr. Rymer stated that Professor Taylor would attend here by order of the Home Secretory. Dr. Haliewood was then called to prove the exami nation of the body ; and Superintendent Robert proved its delivery to Mr. Thomai Andrews chemical assistant at Guy's Hospital. Mr. Thomas Andrews further proved its delivery into the bands of Professor Taylor on the Bth of August. Dr. Alfred S ' , eine Taylor, Professor of Chemistry and Medical Jurisprudence, at Guy's flospit which he had held for 24 years, being sworn, said be bad analysed the remains which he had received from Mr. Andrews, !i] the presence of Dr. G. Rees. He commenced the examination of the remains on the 10th of August, and &Jill], first, the reale of the packet unbroken, and pre. cisely the same which had been forwarded to him by letter, by Drs. Robinson and Haslewood : these are the seals now produced. The cover of the large jar was first removed. Ti.ere was a small jar inside, labelled " the liver," G. R. Then, besides that, in the large jar were four bladders, well secured and labelled, marked " No. 1, intestines," "No. 2, part of the lungs and heart," " No, 3, liqui'l from the abdomen," and No. 4, "the rectum," the lower portion laid open. First examined the liver, of which part only had been sent. The quantity sent weighed 21b. 4oz. The liver was enlarged from disease, and was of a pale greenish yellow colour, and the structure very soft and filled with .oily matter, It was diseased, called by me dical men "fatty degeneration." The liver had already undergone putrefaction, without any appearance of ab .!cess, or of any disease; except enlargement and conver sion of fat into oil. Then proceeded to make a chemical analysis Examined the outside closely with a magnify. ing-glass, and could not detect powder or other suspicious appearance about it. There was a portion of newspaper adhered to one part, which was removed, and first ex amined for arsenic. There was no arsenic present in the paper. Then took an ounce of liver entirely from the inside, and separated from it a small quantity of arsenic. They weighed out four ounces, and from that obtained a still larger amount of arsenic. The day after, in company with Dr. Rees, examined 13 ounces of the liver, and from that arsenic was also ob tained in still larger proportion (a portion of the me tallic arsenic deposited is now produced). Before the examination the whole of the instiuments used in the analysis were submitted to close investieation, and were entirely free 'from arsenic. The muriatic acid fre quently contains arsenic, but in this instance it was en tirely pure, Witnese would mention, at a trial in Wells, Mr. Brande and he went into three chemists' shops, and on the examination of the best muriatic acid he foetid it to contaie arsenic. This he thought it neces eiry to in form the bench, but in the instance before them he would undertake to swear that the water, the muriatic acid, and the copper were entirely free from arsenic.

BETTING ON THE COURSE. ST. LEGER. sto 2 agst Rifleman (taken and offd). 3to 1 agg Oulston (fakfm and offd). sto 1 agst Lord of the Isles (taken freely). A more brilliant and important meeting was never Celebrated on the far-famed Knavesrnire. The running was most interesting, and the result of certain races bas °Meted a complete change in the St. Leger betting. The proceedings were conducted with the most praiseworthy punctuality and efficiency. The various arrangements were most extensive, and were very satisfactorily carried out under the superinten dence of Mr. W. North. Mr. Manning officiated at the scales ; Mr. Richard Johnson, of York, was the judge ; and Mr. Hibburd the starter ; and each discharged his duties with his customary ability. The weather was dull and threatening, but on the whole favoura►ale. They who hurried off the course before the last race in order to catch the 4.10 p.m. Great Northern express, gained little by their motion, for upwards of half-an hour's delay occurred before the train moved out of the stat-on. On arriving at King's• cross f urther delay was most annoyingly occasioned, owing to some misunder stauding about the return tickets. The extra demand was in the majority of cases stoutly refused, and much wrangling ensued. The train was upwards of an hour behind time. BETTING AT MANCHESTER.--FRIDAY.
