Provisionally Registered Notice is hereby Given, That this COMPANY has been formed for the construction of a RAILWAY TRANSIT from LONDON to EXETER direct (avoiding the circuitous course by Bristol), and to pass through Hounslow, Staines, Eghain, Ascot, Bagshot, Kingsclere, Andover, Salisbury, Shaftesbury, Sherborne, Yeovil, Crewkerne, and Axminster (or taking the lower line from Salisbury, to Cranbourne, Blandford, Dorchester, Bridport, and _Axminster, which it is con sidered may be preferable from its approach to the coast). It is unnecessary to comment on the advantages of this direct communication to Exeter, involving as it does so great a saving in distance ; or its superiority over any branch or auxiliary projections, affecting the counties of Hants, Berks, Wilts, and Dorset, with their adjacencies. Besides the brevity of the entire line, the counties and places above named will all respectively derive the benefit of this un dertaking, which is commenced with a determination to render it equally worthy of support as an investment of capital, as deserving the name of a great national work of an enlarged and comprehensive character. In a few days the names of the Noblemen and Gentlemen engaged in furtherance of the undertaking, with those of the Provisional Com mittee and Officers, will be published ; meanwhile all persons in terested in the projected Line of Railway are requested to abstain from pledging their support in any way till the merits of the Com pany be further promulgated ; and any Noblemen or Gentlemen dis posed to forward its success are requested to communicate their names to the Committee immediately. In due time arrangements will be made for Shares ; and, in the interim, any applications relative to the undertaking are requested to be addressed to D. E.

A principal feature in this undertaking is the erection at the Old, or Aust, Passage, of a fixed bridge across the estuary of the Severn, adapted as well for railway traffic as for ordinary carriage and pe destrian intercourse. By the construction of this bridge, and the in tended line of railway in connexion with it, two great objects will be attained ; first, there will be established, by means of a junction at Hereford with the proposed lines north of that city, a direct, unbroken line of railway communication between Bristol and Liverpool, with a saving in distance of about forty-two miles over the present route ; and, secondly, there will be opened a free com munication between the southern and western portions of England, on the one hand, and Monmouthshire and South Wales as tho other. These important districts have hitherto been practically severed, and only rendered accessible to each other by a most inconvenient ferry, dependent on tides and weather. The want of a fixed bridge over the Severn, at the point above-mentioned, has long been severely felt, and it would be impossible, whether in reference to na tional or local interests, to over estimate the importance of a - scheme designed to supply this want. It has not, however, been front a consideration of its impracticability that such a work has not loig since been accomplished. In the year 1825 Mr. Telford, the late ce lebrated engineer, was consulted upon the subject, and gave a most decided opinion in favour of It, particularly adverting (amongst other causes affording facility) to the great height of the banks at the Old Passage, to the fact of the bed of the river consisting wholly of solid rock, and to the circumstance that suitable materials for the work could be procured within a reasonable distance. The engineers of the present proposed work, as well as other en gineers of eminence, are equally confident of the thorough practica bility of the undertaking. . . .

Until recent times, and before the period had arrived when railway traffic and profits had reached their present astonishing extent, the expense of this bridge compared with the probable traffic) rEturns, naturally retarded its projection; but now, when works equally difficult and expensive, such as tunnels and viaducts, are readily con structed by railway companies for the mere traffic of their line, and sometimes only to avoid a comparatively trifling deviation, it will be at once admitted, that with a view merely to the formation of a direct line between Bristol and Liverpool (without looking to col lateral or ultra-terminal advantages), the magnitude of the under taking is no longer to be regarded as an impediment to its com pletion. The recent decision of the Admiralty against the proposed bridge at the Hock Crib, leaves the Aust Passage the only practicable point for a fixed bridge. Arrangements have been concluded with his Grace the Duke of Beaufort, and the other proprietors of the Aust Ferry, whereby the purchase of that important interest has been secured to this Com pany. The line, which will be about forty-eight miles in length, will commence at Bristol, and proceed to the Aust Passage, there arose- LEA and PERRINS' WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE is pronounced by connoisseurs to be " the only good sauce" for enriching gravies, or as a zest for fish, curries, soups, game, steaks, cold meat, &c. ; and its rapidly increasing sale has induced the Proprietors to open a warehouse in London. The very general and decided approbation bestowed on this sauce having encouraged imitations, the Proprietors have adopted Betts's metallic capsules, on which are embossed the words "Lea and Perrins' Worcestershire Sauce," as a means of protection. Sold, wholesale, retail, and for exportation, by the proprietors, Vere street, Oxford street ; Crosse and Blackwell, Soho-square ; Barclay and Sons, Farringdon-street ; Metcalfe and Co., Southampton-row; and by vendors of sauces generally. VICTORIA LIFE A S No. IS, KING WILL; ;SURANCE COMPANY JAM-STREET, CITY. .. ing the proposed bridge to Beachley, it will run northward along the valleys of the Wye and Monnow by Chepstow, and Mon mouth to Hereford, which city will form the northern terminus of the line. At Hereford the direct chain of communication to Liverpool will be completed by the lines now projected' between those places. It is obvious that this route will furnish to the west and south-west of England the best and most direct means of communication not only with Liverpool and the north of England, but with Dublin and the north of Ireland. To Bristol itself the value of the project cannot be over-estimated. It will secure to that ancient city the continuance of its long-enjoyed position, as the emporium of commerce in the west. It is proposed to connect the line with the forest of Dean, by which means the vast mineral resources of that district will be developed to an extent hitherto unattained. Many other advantages will at once suggest themselves to those acquainted with the locality of the proposed railway ; amongst others it may be mentioned, that the route will embrace Tintern Abbey, and the other celebrated scenery of the Wye, Which, notwithstanding the difficulty and expense of reaching them by the old means of tran sit, annually attract a great number of visitors. The engineering capabilities of the line have been ascertained to be excellent. In vestigations on the subject of the traffic have been made, which fully justify the conclusion that the undertaking will prove a very pro fitable investment of capital. The promoters have not been unmindful of the projected line of the Bristol and South Wales Junction Company, irom Bristol to the passage ; and if satisfactory terms of arrangement can be made, whereby the formation-ef that portion of the line can, consistently with the interests of this undertaking, be left to that Company, a corresponding diminution of the capital will take place. .

This Company 15 established for the manufacture and sale of the Concentrated Essences of Tea and Coffee under Staite's Patent, by licence from the Patentee. The advantages peculiar to the process for which this patent has been granted, are very numerous ; but among the most prominent is this, that while the properties of the material are completely ex tracted, its available quantity is augmented, and its virtues improved. The distinctive qualities of the Essence obtained are, the retention of the identical flavour and fragrauce of the partic ular Tea or Coffee used, and a degree of strength secur e d before unknown. The method employed in prepari ng an d putting up these Essences, secures them against injury from th e lapse of time and change of climate, affords the greatest possible facility for portability and im mediate nse, and se reduces the price to the consumer, that economy itself thrnishes an ample guarantee for their extensive use. One teaspoonful of the Essence, in a cup of boiling water, will be sufficient for the instantaneous production of a cup of tea or coffee of the finest quality. The following certificate from Dr. Uro is, with satisfaction, sub joined : " I hereby certify, that Staite's Patent Essence of Teals a pure and wholesome beverage; and that is is extracted by a peculiar process, which, while it excludes in a great measure, the bitter and astringent matter always present in the teapot, preserves and refines all the exhilarating and aromatic principles of the Chinese herb. Being put up in Mr. Rand's Collapsible Tubes of pure tin, it will keep un. changed for any length of time. (Signed) "ANDREW ITRE, Chemist to tho Board. of Customs, &c., &c." The Committee have also thought it right to have the samples of the Essences submitted to high and unbiassed authorities in the Tea Trade. The following testimonial from a well-known and eminent judge is the result : " W. J. Bland having tested the samples of the concentrated Es sence of Tea, manufactured under Staite's Patent, pronounces them clean, full and perfect.

Fifth Edition, now ready, T HE LAZE AWFUL CONFLAGRATION OF RAGGETT'S HOTEL, PICCADILLY. In consequence of the serious and fatal accidents caused by the burning of the above Hotel, and the danger to which such establish ments are constantly exposed, from the same cause, DAVID 3IAURIGY" thinks it proper to make more fully known, for the satis faction and comfort of his numerous friends and patrons, the arrangements of the PALATINE HOTEL, VICTORIA STATION, MANCHESTER, for the prevention of such fearful occurrences. The landings of the house are fire-proof, and the staircases, which are of solid iron, are so constructed that no portion of them could the fall till the whole building fall to the ground, thus keeping open the means of egress, the falling of which has been the cause of so large a portion of the late dreadful catastrophes from fire ; they can also be flooded with continuous streams of water from each landing, which can be turned on by the night attendant (who is always up and on the watch) at a moment's notice. Every room in the house can be supplied with water sufficient to extinguish the largest fire in a few moments. By these means the remotest probability of any accident by Lire is removed, and the most timid person may make use of this hotel without the least fear. David Maurigy takes this opportunity of returning his grateful thanks for the liberal support he has received since he has opened the Palatine Hotel and Refreshment Rooms, Victoria Statior, and begs to assure the public and commercial gentlemen that no exertions shall be wanting, on his part, to merit their continued kind patronage, and at the most moderate charges, including all gratuities to servants.

DR. CULVERWELL'S GUIDE TO HEALTH AND LONG POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LAMBETH. Sanucirow.—Miss Mary Ann Salisbury, the daughter of a Dissenting minister at Bath, was charged with attempting to 'commit suicide on the preceding night. Frederick Godfrey, a servant in the employment of the London and Westminster Steam-boat Company deposed, that .on the preceding night he observed the prisoner on the steps leading to the Company's pier, on the Surrey side of West minster-bridge, and knowing that the boats had ceased to run for the night, he asked her what or who she was waiting for? She replied nobody. There was something about her manner which induced him to watch her closely, and perceiving that she was approaching the water's edge he:followed her, and again asked her what she wanted? At this time she appeared to be praying, and did not reply to him for some moments, when she drew a letter from her bosom, and requested he would put it into the post-office. She then said that her lover had jumped off London-bridge on Sunday or Monday night, and he hoped she would do the same. She then made towards the edge of the water, and was in the act of throwing herself in, when he (witness) caught hold of her clothes and held her until assistance came, and she was handed over to the care and charge of a policeman. The witness added, that after saving her, the prisoner told him he was very unkind for interfering with her, and asked him seve ra l ti mes t o l e t h er d o w h at s h e wanted, but she appeared in a state of distraction at the time. The witness, in answer to a question from the magistrate, further said that on the same ( Wednesday) night a young man had thrown himself off the London-bridge, and was picked up alive, as he heard, by one of the Watermen steamers. Police-constable Bovill, 140 D, deposed that on her way to the station-house the prisoner told him she was the daughter of a clergyman, at Bath, and had come away from there a fort night ago also a said go wi i t d h ashyeoulnodgggedentaletmz Edward -street, ceetdeLesickvefdrihsersr: road ; but he had since called there, and no such person as the prisoner was known there.

Sergeant Arnold, L 8, said that after the charge bad been taken the prisoner stated to him, that the young man with whom she had come from home had taken from her her valu able gold watch and rings, and had got from her all the money she possessed. The prisoner, who is not 21 years of age, and who was evidently deeply affected, made the following statement : —Her father, she said, kept a boot and shoe warehouse at Bath, and carried on a very extensive business, and was also minister of a Dissenting congregation there. For some years past, Mr. A. Bertram, with whom she had been brought up from childhood, had paid his addresses to her, but for some reason or other her father had set his face against their marriage. A short time since Bartram was on a visit to his father, who resided in the Royal York -crescent, and assured her he had got a license for their marriage in London, and promised that if she accompanied him there the ceremony should be at once performed. Believing his representations, and confiding in his honour, she consented to leave her father's house unknown to him or any part of her family. The time chosen fur her leaving home was on the night of last Tuesday fortnight, and while her father, her mother, and the family were engaged in a prayer meeting at their own house, she managed to hand a small trunk containing a part of her wearing apparel to Bartram, and immediately after left herself an ac companied him, Bartram, by the railroad to Londor. They arrived in town at an early hour on the following (Wednesday) morning, when Bartram took her to a house opposite to Drury lane, which he said was his aunt's, and where he wished her to stop, but observing so much of what she conceived to be gross misconduct going on there, she refused to remain beyond that morning, and the following night she slept at the Bull and Mouth Inn. Mr. NORTON—Do you know the name of the person who keeps the house near Drury-lane, to which you had been taken, and who Bertram represented as his aunt ? Prisoner—l do not, Sir, there is no name over the door, but merely the initials H. S., the H being large and the S The prisoner proceeded to say that, after sleeping at the Bull arid Mouth one night, she took a lodging in King Ed ward-street, and continued to occupy it up to the present time. She was visited there by Bartram, who promised her day after day to produce the lice n se for their marriage, but who put it off from some excuse or other. On Friday ' night last she reluctantly accompanied him to the house of his aunt, as he balled her, where he kept her to a late hour, when he told her that her father had offered 201. for her ap prehension, said the officers were searching for her in all directions, and that the only security she had for her personal safety was to sleep there that night. Under the peculir cir cumstances she consented to stop, and a bed was ordered for herself alone. Previous to going to bed Bartram prevailed upon her to take a tumbler full of what he called " Temperance cordial," and after taking it she felt her head quite giddy, and it subsequently produced a stupifying effect. While in bed she beard Bartram in the room, and seeing him about to take off his boots she threatened to scream aloud if ho did not at once retire from the apartment. He did so then, but subsequently returned and got to bed with her without her being then aware of his presence. In the morning she was so ill that Bartram had to send twice for a surgeon to see her. On the same morning Bartram handed her what he called a saline draught, and desired her to take it. She drank a small por tion of it, and found it so nauseous that she refused to take any mere, and what she had taken had made her so ill that she inw thasoe room m d to discharge a bunk, and having its contents i B artram gotup to go to was at t t h he is time win dow, she took up the book, and found under it a paper, which had evidently been recently emptied of its contents, and upon which was written the word "Poison." She spoke to and asked him how the paper came there, and what it had contained? And he replied, nothing, and endeavoured to get the paper out of her hand, but in the struggle for it it got torn. As soon as she was able to be moved, he took her home in a cab to her lodg ings, and from that time to the present she had not seen him. On Monday evening last, however, she received a note from him. the purport of which was, that by the time she received it he would be no more, as he had jumped off the bridge, and he hoped she would follow his example. This, of course, made her wretched and miserable in her mind, hut she had no recol lection of going near the water, as had been stated. In reply to the questions of Mr. Norton, she said th a t th e father of Bartram was a gen tl eman of good ' fortune, but his son being somewhat wild, he was sentdda)s taoftesreas,heanhdadwcaosmaet "mo l e nt the e the m country, at of a she hship. ve B rw om ou e n her gold watch, worth hhd e ee mainspring,ratophos eik d ehi :abd u%etsfhti since him eidalt3l3lbofaoenrr Monday rraetayhpmaas she r said taapi tl he ts e d ' he purpose. hs o ehH u ro l epe d , 201., and brok io e ,nlaa t c h n t subsequently h t e t , tir r .u e i‘e p ni a ut i Irtyte Mutt, and no such watch had been lat. Bartram also took away two rings, one of them of considerable value, and the last sovereign she had, and left hor without anything except the few articles of clothing she had brought with her. Mr. NORTON remarked that much allowance should be made for the prisoner under the unfortunate circumstances in which she was placed, and if her statement was true, and he had no reason to doubt it, there could be but one opinion of the infa mous conduct of her seducer, who, nut content with destroying LAmERT ON DEBILITT, NERVOUSNESS, AND ALL DISORDERS ARISING FROM EXCESS, kc.

INQUEST CONTINUED. PORTSMOUTfI, THURSDAY.—The inquest on the body of Mr. Seton was resumed yesterday after our report left. Andrew Rogers Savage. Lieutenant and Acting-Adjutant of the Royal Marine Artillery, deposed, that he is a subscriber to the King's Rooms, of which Mr. Hollingsworth is the proprietor. Wit. tie, acted as steward, and was presr nt at the rooms on Monday, the I eth of May last. Knew the deceased Mr. Seton, who was present on that occasion. Knew Lieut. Hawkey, who was also paesent. Mrs. Hawkey was also present. Knew Mr. ItowlN, Mr. Mauginn, and Lieut. P!m, who were also present. Ido net know upon what Senn. Mr. Hawkey and Mr. Scion were on that evening. I was not a witness to any quarrel between them. Ido not know upon what terms Mr. Hawkey and Mr. Seton were on that evening. I was not a witness to any quarrel between them. I did not know that they retired from the bali.room. I took Mr. Hawkey out of the ball-room in consequence of what Mr. Rowles said to me when in the card-room. I told Mr. Hawkey that Mr. Rowles had in formed me that he (Mr. Hawkey) had called Mr. Seton a black. guard and a scoundrel, and Mr. Rowles had wished me to sieve him my advice upon the subject, and to know whether I would advise him to refer it to his commanding officer, Colonel Jones, or not. I told him I would not mix myself up with his affairs. I was then asked, as I errs steward of the rooms, whether I would speak to Mr. Hawkey upon the subject. I said I had no objection, as steward of the room, to do so. Mr. Hawkey, in re ply, told me the business could not be arranged there ; that he had received an injury, not an insult. This is the substance of the conversation I had with Mr. Hawkey. After that conversation I did not see Mr. Seton or Mr. Hawkey, and left the rooms before the soiree terminated. I was alone with Mr. Hawkey when the above conversation took place. Mr. Hawkey also stated to me that Mr. Seton had refused to meet him, as " light cavalry never meet infantry." I saw Mr. Hawkey the next morning about nine o'clock ; he told me Mr. Rowles had been to him to arrange a meeting between him and Mr. Seton, which I understood to be a hostile meeting. He told me he was then going to look fisr pistols, and then we parted. I did not see him again. I observed Mr. Seton dance twice with Mrs. Hawkey. I did not make any report to Colonel Jones of the fact that there was likely to be a breach of the peace. Mr. Jenkins, surgeon, of High-street, Gosport, deposed—On the evening of Tuesday, the 20th of May last, a car riage stopped at my door, conveying a messenger, who requested to see me. I inquired his business with me, when lie stated that illy esta. attendance was. required at Brehm. .-.:v.,...- down, where a -- gentleman was bleeding to death. On my road to Brown down I was stopped in the bay in comae. quence of seeing some persons looking out for me, as I supposed, near Dr. Burney's cottage, Stokes-bay. On walking a little dis tance, 1 observed a small boat pulling in shore, and signalling me to walk in that direction. I went to the boat and was requested to go on board a small yacht lying off When I got on board the yacht I found Mr. Seton, the deceased, lying on his back on a hoard. Some gentlemen were on board with deceased whom I did not know, nor do I now. I found Mr. Seton In a state of excretal* weakness, and faintness from loss of blood. The gentlemen were endeavouring to keep him up by throwing water on his face. The pulse was scarcely perceptible. They had put a strong ligature round the thigh, binding both extremities of the wound, especially the outer. The bleeding had quite stopped through faintness. I did not at that time remove the ligature from and examine the wound ; the yacht was so small, and as the bleeding was stopped, I thought it impolitic to remove the ligature. I adminis tered a little brandy and water, and the yacht sailed on. The gen.. tlemen on board expressed the greatest desire that the patient should be taken to Haslar. [Witness here stated that as the patient was refused admittance to Haslar, not being a naval officer, they tarried him to the Quebec Hotel, Portsmouth.] I had him immediately undressed and placed in bed. Soon after Dr. Mortimer came. I then took off the bandages and inspected the wound, which was just above the bone of the great trochanter, and was, I have no doubt, caused by a pistol ball. The wound commenced on the right hip passing across the lower part of the belly, and through the walls of the belly, the cavity of which it did not enter. The ball passed out of the left groin. There was a very considerable degree of swelling, extravasation of fluid in the right groin and scrotum. The ball entered on the right side. There was no bleeding at that tittle. By half-past 10 o'clock the circulation was sufficiently established to satisfy me that the patient was doing well, and to enable me to leave him with safety. There was no bleeding at the wound at that time, nor up to the time of the nperation performed by Mr. Liston. I visited him daily. The next day the temperature of the skin was completely restored ; a reaction had taken phiess I considered the deceased to be in a very dangerous state from the beginning from the large quantity of blood he had loot previous to my seeing him. It was arterial blood, which led me to suspect that some artery of importance was wounded. Deceased was going on pretty fairly up to the Tuesday following, the 27th inst., when we discovered a pulsation In a tumour which had formed in the groin, and which hal not existed before that visit. We (Drs. Stewart, Mortimer, and myself) consulted together respecting the treatment to be adopted, and we arrived at the conclusion that an artery of considerable magnitude had been injured, and determined that since It was possible that such a degree of bleeding might corn* on as might destroy the patient's life at once, it was necessary to cut off the supply of blood from the limb, to tie a large artery above the seat of the injury —the external iliac artery. I considered the more time that elapsed the greater the propability of sudden danger. We then communicated the state of the case to the patient, and told him that an operation was necessary, and that the operation was a serious one, when he (deceased) expreeeed his willingness so submit to any operation deemed necessary in his position. Mr. Liston arrived from town on Friday evening, the 30th ult., when we immediately consulted; the result of whiter was, that the operation of tying the external iliac artery was re solved upon, but Mr. Liston was of opinion that there was no oc casion for any immediate hurry. He then lett the patient, and we met again at eight o'clock the next morning, when the operation was performed (in the presence of ourselves, and Mr. Sampson and Mr. Potter, surgeons, from London) by Mr. Liston, with the ut most skill and judgment, but was attended with unusual difficulty from the fatness of the patient. The deceased suffered a great deal the night after the operation. I considered him in great danger from the first time I visited him; but the performance of the ope ration rendered it necessary that two or three weeks should pass away before we could give a decided opinion with regard to the patient's recovery. He died the next day (Monday). I am not prepared to say that the operation performed by Mr. Liston killed deceased, as I have not examined the body since death. By Mr. Field—Death would have been the inevitable cense. quence had the operation not taken place. James Allan, M.D., deputy medical inspector, and first surgeen of Hasler Hospital, sworn—l made a post mortem examination of the body of the late James Alexander Seton, in consequence of an order I received from the Coroner. I made the examination yes terday at three o'clock. I found three wounds, one upon the upper part of the right hip, another upon the opposite groin, and the third in the position in which it is usual to perform the operation of tying up the external iliac artery; the latter was an incised wound about six inches in length. I traced the wound from the right hip to the left groin, and found an effusion el coagulated blood, which had caused a tumour en the right side of the pubes, and which extended down into the scrotum. I think the operation performed by Mr. Liston was absolutely ne cessary, under the circumstances of the aneurism and tumour ex isting. My decided opinion is that deceased died of peritoneal In flammation following the operation, It being half past nine o'clock, the inquest was adjourned until two o'clock on Thursday. THURSDAY.—At two o'clock the jury assembled, and very soon proceeded to the examination of the witnesses, the number of whom appear to be daily increasing in such progression, that the inquiry cannot possibly terminate for some days. The Coroner issued his warrant for the burial of the body of Mr. Seton last night, and the interment will take place at Fordingbridge, Hants, in the family vault, on Tuesday next. The remains were removed to the late residence of the deceased, Queen's-terrace, Southsea, this morning. Lieutenant Hawkey and the seconds have net been heard of up to the present time. Dr. John Mortimer, M.D., was the first witness examined to. day. He gave his residence as Upper South-street, Gosport. He said—l did not know the deceased until I saw him wounded. On Tuesday evening, the 20th of May, I received a message from Mr. Jenkins, requesting I would meet him at the Quebec Hotel, to visit a gentleman who had been wounded at Brown-down. I proceeded thither immediately, and on my arrival found that he had been landed from a vessel a few minutes before. I had never seen him before, but he was the deceased, James Alexander Seton. In con sequence of his having been placed on a bier for the more easy transition from the vessel, and it being too wide to admit of his being carried at once into the bedroom, I saw him at the top of the stairs, and found, from the shock given to his whole frame, partly by the influence ofthe wound he had received and the supposed bleeding that had supervened, he was in a state of great bodily prostration. Mr. Jenkins and myself assisted in carrying Mr. Seton and placing him on the bed in which he died. There was no bleeding, but the cellary texture was loaded with blood. The scrotum and organs of generation were equally so, and deeply discoloured. We recom mended a little hot brandy triad water, and applied blankets to the extremities, which were equally cold, and he soon revived. At this stage I said to him, "Sir, you must have stood well up to your man, or else you must have been shot dead." There was an oblong tumour on the right of time symphasis pubis. The rest of this witness's evidence related chiefly to the mode In which the patient was treated till the operation was performed by Mr. Lieton, which he also described. He concluded by saying the operation was necessary to his life. Ultimately he would have died if the operation had not been performed. By Mr. Field—The cause of death was peritoneal inflammation. The torn artery was not the immediate cause of death. James Stewart, M.D., of St. Thomas-street, Portsmouth, sworn —I knew the deceased, James Alexander Salon, I visited him on the 21st of May last, at eight o'clock in the evening. He appeared extremely exhausted from loss of blood. Deceased lived about sixty hours after the performance of the operation. The primary cause of death was the effect of a ball passing through the body of deceased. The secondary cause of death was peritoneal inflamma tion, which set in after the operation. The deceased on the se_ mind day I saw him put this question to me, " Do you consider use in a state of danger ?" I replied, " I do." He then made a statement to me relative to the infliction of the wound. Dote said, " lam aware of my danger, from your opinion, as well as that of the other medical gentlemen, and were I to die to-morrow I know not why I was shot ;" and this he repeated several days after. I sat up with deceased on Sunday night, the Ist of Julie, and on several occasions during that night I conversed with him on this unpleasant affair. He told me lie saw Lieutenant Hawke y present the pistol, which did not go off the first time. He was then standing in his proper position as an o p ponent, somewhat neari Stoke's-bay. He distinctly saw Lieutenant Hawkey present the pistol the second time, the ball from which pistol went throug h his (deceased's) body. I ask e d hi m if he had any doubt. Decearied said, " Certainly none." That was on the morning of the day o n which he died. H e was th en aware that he was much worse, and this was his last st a t ement. Deceased said he fired at his nent, and connected w i t h that, deceased said, " Had westood4"at the distance my opponent wished (namely, six paces) he would now have been in my place and lin his." Deceased also seated that he had fired twice. By the Foreman—Deceased made no statement as to the fairness or unfairness of the duel.
