They are offered to the public as a cheap and compendious mode of diffus ing information which, particularly at a time when the subject to which they refer is before the Legislature, it is desirable that all classes of the community should possess.' William Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh and London. sergeant having left to get the stretcher, he heard some person whistling who was coming in the difection to where he was, and when this person came up to the spot he said, "Iloa, policeman, what have yon got here ?" A great deal of conversation took place between them, and the poli ce man would state his belief that the person he satv was the prisoner at the bar It would seem probable therefore, that the prisoner, after having committed the murder, went to the Swiss Cottage ; that he then went down the Avenue-road where he wza met and accosted by the witness to whom he before alluded ; and that he then, for some reason or other which he could not explain, went back to where the murdered man lay. He would now call the attention of the jury to other facts connected with this case. It would appear that the prisoner was on terms of close intimacy with a young woman named Jane Phipps, who was acquainted with a woman named Edwards, who lived in Bath-place. This Edwards had a relative, also called Edwards, who lived in service with a respectable family in Portland place. This person permitted Jane Phipps to sleep in the house, the family being absent at the time. It ap peared the prisoner was in the habit of seeing her here, and that he, on the very night the murder was committed, came to the house in Portland-place, the time at which he came corresponding nearly to the time that it would have taken him to arrive after he was last seen. There was nothing in his manner on that occasion which indicated that he was engaged in anything extraordinary, but it appeared that there was some disorder in his dress. He was asked if he had fallen down, and he answered that he was in the habit of going to a house in Grafton-street every Tuesday and Friday, but that he was not in a fit state to go before ladies. It appeared that he was expected there that night. He came into the house with the same cloak be had on at the scene of the murder, and he had at this time a watch which he said he bought that day in the City, but the evidence on this point would leave no doubt on their minds that the watch in question was the watch of the deceased. He also produced a ring, which he believed was a diamond one, which he also showed to the girl Phipps. There was a remark made about some spots of blood on his breast, but in explanation of that he said he got them in a rencontre with the goverror, by whom he was understood to mean his master in the City. He said that they had fallen out—a scuffle ensued, and his nose bled. He arrived at the house in Portland-place about, or shortly after, nine o'clock, and left it between ten and eleven. From this time till about two o'clock the fol lowing morning, when he went home, they lost all trace of the prisoner. How he spent the time they did not know, but about two o'clock he returned to No. 11, Victoria-terrace, Portland-town, where he was in the habit of sleeping with his brother, being at the time in no kind of employment, and being supported by his father, who lived in Charles -street. In the morning he showed the watch to his brother which he had previously shown to Phipps, and he gave him the following account of how it came into his pos session. It appeared that the prisoner had a watch which he put in pledge, and of that fact the brother was aware. He therefore stated to his brother that the watch he then had was the watch he put in pawn, and that he was that day enabled to redeem it with money the possession of which he also attempted to account for. Now, the watch in question would be identified as the watch which belonged to the deceased, and it would be proved that at the time the deceased left his lodgings there was every appearance from his waist coat-pocket that he had a watch in it and he had on also a guard. With regard to the money, which was a considerable sum for a person in his situation, and seeing that he owed 10s. to his brother, which he was not able to pay, they would find when he left his house, on Friday evening about seven o'clock, that he stated he was going to Airs. Edwards for the purpose of procuring ten sovereigns, lie stated to his family that she was going to lend him that sum, and that he was to go on Sunday to get it. But on the day after the murder, when he came home he showed 12 sovereigns, to his brother, stating that he received them from Mrs, Edwares, and that he was more fortunate than he ex pected, for, instead of getting ten, as he was pro mised, he succeeded in procuring twelve. He would show that those statements were entirely false ; that he never made any application to Mrs. Edwards ; that he never made any appointment with her ; and that in point of fact he never received any money from her. After this, being present at several conversations between his father and brother, and other persons, respecting the murder, they would find from witnesses that the prisoner did not join in those conver sations; that he never made the slightest allusion to his acquaintance with the deceased, or of his being pre sent at the time of the murder, or of his having any knowledge whatever of it. He would di rect their attention s to evidence of a most important kind. The shirt which the prisoner had on on the night in question was found in his father's house with stains of blood upon it. The wristband of the right hand which, was torn off, and which corre sponded to the shirt already alluded to as belonging to the prisoner, was also found stained with blood. They would find that the prisoner in conver sation had. sought to explain this, by saying that the wrist of the shirt was torn while romping with some women, one of whom, named Cox, he particularly men tioned. He would show that that was not true, for he would call Cox before them. But there was more evi dence of this kind with regard to theprisoner. They would remember the cry of " murder" was heard on both sides It was evident, therefore, that the death of the deceased was not occasioned by a sudden blow, which deprived him of his senses. Those cries indicated at all events that the person was aware of the murderous intent of his assailant, and if nature will struggle for life, some struggle must have ensued. Now, they would end, upon examining the coat which the prisoner had ou on the night of the murder, that two buttons were torn from it as if, supposing the coat to have been buttoned at the time, the buttons were wrenched away in the struggle. One of those buttons was found at the lodging of the prisoner, and the other close by the spot where the murder was committed. The knees of his trousers were found saturated with blood, and blood was also found upon his drawers and stockings, as if he had knelt down in blood, and that it penetrated his trousers, drawers, and stock ings, and it would be found that there was a pool of blood near the deceased, which would lead to that suppo sition. On the Wednesday following the murder the Prisoner and his brother were together when the police man called npon them. The police-constable first asked the brother if he had a watch in his possession. He denied it. He then put the same question to the pri soner, and whether he hesitated or not, he (Mr. Bodkin) did not know, but his manner was such as to in duce his brother to make this remark—" Tell the truth to the policeman, because he will see that you are not now doing so." He would not enter into the other circumstances connected with the case. He thought he bad given a sufficient outline to enable the jury to comprehend the evidence which would be given. But there was one point to which he should call their attention, which would, no doubt, cause very considerable sensation. He believed there was no money or property Y kind. It was hi s of value found on t he p erson of the d eceased at the time he was found. Bu t a letter was found in his coat-pocket to very lay x t h aaotrdn lettera of d of uty a be cause, he had no doubt r satisfying them by evidence that it was ',written by t h e pr i soner at the e t r i before them, r bar. His brother, who knew his handwriting, would swear he believed it to be the prisoner's handwriting, and, in addition to his evidence, an d to t h at of others it would appear that it was written in the same coloured ( bl ue ) ink which was found in his rooms ; that the paper was of the same size and quality, and that the seal with which it was impressed having the letter " F," corresponded with the one found in the prisoner's room ; therefore they could have no doubt that the letter was in the hand-writing of the prisoner at the bar. The letter was addressed to " James Cooper, Hampstead-road," for it appeared that the prisoner was in the habit of addressing the deceased under that name. The letter was addressed iR these terms : " My dearest James—l have so often resigned myself to your will and embrace, that I find myself in a situation which makes it necessary for me to leave home shortly. I would rather die than doubt either your word or your honour ; yet do not, oh do not, be ashamed to own me.

THE MURDER AT HAMPSTEAD. TRIAL OF MOCKER. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT.. The trial of locker, for the murder of James Delarue, was fixed for ten o'clock yesterday, but for two hours be fore a great number of persons had collected about the various entrances to the Court seeking for admissions, which, according to the arrangements made by the She riffs, could only be had by ticket. The greatest anxiety prevailed to be admitted within the precincts of the Court, and the policeman at the Judges' entrance had plenty of occupation in answering all those who presented bin' with orders of admission. The only persons whu were admitted before half-past eight o'clock were the barristers, of whom a great number, who are but little known at the Central Criminal Court, made their appearance to-day. Owing to the excellent arrangements of the Sheriffs, however, there was less inconvenience and pressure in the Court than is usually experienced in the Central Criminal Court on the most ordinary occasions. The Recorder, Mr. Alderman Wood, Mr. Alderman Hughes, and the Sheriffs, made an early appearance in Court. A morgst other visitors we noticed on the bench Lord George Lennox, Lord William Lennox, and Lord Arthur Lennox, the Sardinian Minister, the Prussian Ambassador, Chevalier Bunsen, Baron Arnim, Earl of Lucan, Lord Sheffield, Baron Koller, Baron Brenner, Dr. Gordon, M. le Due de Broglie, the Duke of Bruns wick, the Earl of Bcctive, Mr. Hope, M.P., and Captain Garth. No ladies were admitted. Shortly after nine o'clock several prisoners were called on to plead. On Joseph Connor being called on to plead guilty or not guilty to the murder of Mary Brothers, he answered in a firm tone of voice " Not Guilty, my Lord." Thomas Henry Rocker was next called on to plead to the indictment charging him with murder; he pleaded " Not Guilty" in a strong and decided tone. To the in dictments under the coroner's inquisition the prisoner also pleaded "Not Guilty;" and likewise to the indict tnent, charging him with the robbery of the property of Delarue, the prisoner pleaded " Not Guilty." The prisoner locker was becomingly dressed in black clothes. His hair was carefully arranged, and he appeared a genteel and respectable looking person. He exhibited the greatest nonchalance, bowed respectfully to the Court whim called on to plead, looked about him with the carelessness of a mere spectator, and altogether showed the utmost confidence and coolness. There was nothing to indicate a malign or ferocious disposition, with the exception of a sinister expression about the eyes. There was a marked contrast between his phy siognomy and that of Connor. A ;little after ten o'clock the Judges, Mr. Justice Coleridge and Mr. Justice Coltman, accompanied by the Lord Mayor, entered the Court, and took their seats on the bench. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. M. Chambers conducted the pro secution, on behalf of the Crown; Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Ballaptine defended the prisoner. Thomas lonry locker was then placed at the front of the bar, upon which Mr. 13. DKIN rose to state the case for the prosecution. He said that the very extraordinary interest taken by the public in reference to the transaction, which they were met there to try, made it his first duty, as it seemed to him, as counsel for the prosecution, t) direct the attention of the jury to the awful issue they had to try, and to tell them that they should be guided to the verdict ‘v hich they had to try by what transpired in that Court, from the evidence upon the trial, and by nothing else. It was impossible but that various statements and comments which had been made in reference to this transaction must have reached them, and though it might not be possible for them to discard those statements and comments altogether from their minds, still it would be their duty, and he was sure they would perform it to the best of their power, that the impressions they might have re ceived should not have the slightest influence on the verdict which they should feel bound to give. The pri soner at the bar was charged by the indictment with the horrid crime of murder, publicly committed, and committed under circumstances of great em barrassment ; for there would seem to be no other motive or inducement on the part of the prisoner to lead to the commission of the crime, except that of possessing himself of the property of the murdered man. He would briefly lay all the facts of the case before them as they would appear in evidence, and he was afraid those facts were of such a nature as could leave no reasonable doubt on their mind of the guilt of the prisoner. The deceased person, about whose death they were now inquiring, was a person of the name of James Delarue, who resided at the period of this transaction at No. 55, Whittlebury •street, Euston-square. He was a music master by profession, and it appeared was in habits of close intimacy with the prisoner at the bar. They would find he left his residence about six o'clock on the evening of Friday, the 21st of February, and soon after seven, or between seven and eight o'clock, he was found murdered. But it would be necessary in the first place to describe the locality where the murder had been committed. The Learned Gentleman then described the locality to the jury, and told them that it was between the Haverstock-road side and the Avenue road side that the murder was committed. In a corner between a railing and a wall, which formed the inclo - sure of Bellsize House, the body was found, under the circumstances he would detail to them. Some time after seven o'clock a baker,' named Edward Hilton, who was serving some customers in that direction, heard cries of murder proceeding from the direction where the murder had been committed, He listened to them for some time, and then turned down the Haverstock-road. At a short distance he met a policeman, to whom he told what he had heard. They both proceeded imme diately up the Haverstock-terrace. They crossed the field, and got to the passage which leads to Bcllsize lane, near the public-house. The policeman having got to this point, and having heard nothing, proceeded down the passage till he got near the George public house, when he met the sergeant of police, to whom he related what had been told by the baker. The sergeant and the police-constable then proceed towards Haverstock terrace, but they went a different Hay from that which the policeman and the baker took, and they found the body in the position he had already described. The:sergeant went for a stretcher, while the ; policeman remained to watch the body. From the evidence which the baker and the policeman would give there could be no doubt that the death of Delarue was occasioned by violence at the hand of some person or other, and if that fact was established to their satisfaction, the next and the great question for their consideration would be by whom it was committed. They would find that a little after seven o'clock the prisoner himself was met by a person who knew him, and who happened to be at the Swiss Cottage public-house ; that he came in hastily, being dressed in dark clothes with a kind of cloak ; that he was agitated, and asked for some liquor, which he had. The person who would give this evidence saw no more of him after this. They would find from another witness that he heard the cries of murder proceeding from the same direction. That he listened for about ten minutes, and then seeing a person coming towards him from the direction of the Swiss Cottage towards the Regent's-park, he asked the person he met if he heard the cries, but received no an swer This witness would prove that he had no doubt about the prisoner's being the person. It was true the waiter at the Swiss Cottage swore, to the best of his belief, that the prisoner was not the person whom he supplied with liquor, but he (Mr. Bodkin) would prove by the justice-clerk be fore whom the prisoner was bronght, that the prisoner contradicted him, and said expressly that ho was the person whom he supplied with the liquor. There could bo no doubt, therefore, that the prisoner was there. The next point to which their consideration would be directed was, what occurred while the policeman was watching the body. Whilst he was there alone, the put one smile of hope and comfort on my countenance. You can render me for ever light-hearted and happy, or for ever .heart-broken and conscience-stricken. Oh, that a bonded knee might procure rue the former hit. " Ever yours, " CAROLINE." " By Miss F. " James Cooper, Ilampst end-road." He would lay that letter before them as it was, for it was no part of his duty to enter into any sreculation whatever as to the object or motive which actuated the prisoner in writing it. He had now briefly stated the ease. He had stated that the prisoner was on the spot at the time of the murder ; that he was seen coming from the direction where the murder was committed, that his clothes were stained with blood, and that the property of the deceased was found with the prisoner:; with respect to which, he had given a false account. He would only now beg of them not hastily to adopt any impression unfavourable to the pri soner from what he had stated ; that they should only give the same reasonable application to the circumstances which they would to the ordinary trans actions of life. He would barely make one other ob servation. It appeared the prisoner said before the magistrate, that be would produce witnesses to show that he IN as not out of the house till after eight o'clock. Now, he was found in possession ' of the property of the deceased immediately after, and if it was possible to distinguish the robbery from the murder in this case—if any suggestion of that kind were made, they would consider that which seemed to him an important matter, namely, the intention avowed by the prisoner himself that he left his home for the express purpose of getting money. He would now proceed to call evidence before them to corroborate what he had stated. If they had any reasonable doubts, after hearing that evidence, that the prisoner was the person who committed the murder, they would, in that case, give him the full benefit of those doubts; but if all the circumstances of the case brought home to their minds the conviction that the prisoner was guilty, then he felt satisfied that they would fearlessly and faithfully perform their duty to the public, and pronounce a verdict accordingly, however painful it might be to them. The Learned Gentleman then called the following wit nesses : Edward Hilton examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—I am a baker at West-end, Hampstead. I was delivering bread on Haverstock-terrace at ten minutes after seven o'clock on the night of Friday, the 21st of February. I got out of my cart, and beard cries of murder coming across the fields from the dead wall at Bellsize-lane. I afterwards saw the spot where the body was found, and the cries of murder seemed to come from that spot. I heard the cries six or eight times. The cries from the be ginning to the end might have been heard for four minutes. I then went into the field and cried " halloo, halloo," several times. I heard no answer. I then told the policeman, and afterwards drove away. John Baldock, police-constable 304 S, examined by Mr. BODKIN-1 saw Mr. Hilton at ten minutes past seven on Friday, the 21st of February. In consequence of what he told me I walked over the Haverstock-field, but I saw nothing. I then went down the narrow passage leading to Bcllsize-lane, and I afterwards turned back by the George public-house. I met a brother constable, and again, with him, turned back to the dead wall there, and found the dead body. The body was afterwards taken to the station. The deceased was lying on his back, with his great coat and body coat open. I found a glove and hat lying on the ground, near the body. I also found a pocket handkerchief. The body was quite dead, but warm. The injuries were all on the head, and I saw a pool of blood where he was lying. I searched him afterwards. The bosom of the deceased's shirt was also open. There was no watch on the deceased, and he had no money. I found a letter in the pocket of his coat, which I gave into the cus tody of Inspector Grey. After the body was discovered Fletcher was sent for the stretcher, and I was left alone with the body. In about a quarter of an hour a man came up and joined me. The constable was away about half an hour. The person who joined me came from the direction of the Avenue-road. There are two paths by which persons might come towards Hampstead. My attention was called to the person by his singing. The person came up and said " Iloilo, policeman." I said , " I have a serious case here." He said " What is that, policeman ?" I said," I think it is a person who has cut his throat." He said "Itis a nasty job, policeman," and he stooped down and felt the deceased's pulse, to ascertain if there was life left. He then told me that he had been in the habit of travelling that way from town some years, and had never met with any thing. He said his parents had told him he should not walk that way at night. He said I had a cold job, and he offered me some brandy. I said, I had rather not, if you please. He said, it was very cold, and I would be the better of something to drink, and I at last took a shilling from him. When the stretcher came, there was a light brought, and the lamp was turned upon the body. The man then was standing there. When the body was taken on the stretcher, the man followed as far as Bellsize-lane The man had on a dark coat, or mackintosh. The person was a young man, about Mt. Bin. in height. standing at the feet of the deceased when the light was turned on him. On going along with the stretcher, I said to Mocker—what might have caused you to come that lonely way? lle said, " you must know, Sir, I was coming from St. John's Wood to Hampstead on impor tant businest.. - Whe❑ we came to Bellzise-lane, I took the lamp fr, in the policeman when the body was being lifted over the stile. I last saw the prisoner in Bellsize-lane. I could not open the lamp, and he showed me how to open it. He lighted his cigar at the lamp. The light was then streaming on his face, and I had a full opportunity of seeing his features. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON —On the Friday night Baldoek and the accused were close together. To my knowledge I never spoke to him before. I did not attend any of the examinations before the coroner. If Baldoek had come for me I should certainly have gone there. I was not surprised when told to be here to-day. I especially when I read in the papers that Mocker had acknowledged being in the fields. I went afterwards to Mr. Fell, the chief clerk of Marylebone Police-court, and made my statement to him. 1 was afterwards taken to Newgate to identify the prisoner. By Mr. CniNllEßS—Baldock did not join in the con versation between myself and the prisoner on the night of the murder. Ido not think he heard at all what was said by us. Richard Rogers Perry examined by Mr. BODKIN—I found on examination of the body a large wound on the upper and left side of the head. There was a smaller wound in front of it. It was immediately above the eye, and blood had flowed from it. On further examination I found that they were scalp wounds ; the skull was not fractured. There was a good deal of extravasated blood, corresponding with the external injuries. The death of the deceased I should ascribe to concussion of the brain, in consequence of external violence. I should imagine that the injuries were occasioned by repeated blows from a heavy weapon, such as a large stick, or a life preserver. _ _ By Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—The man was muffled up with something over his face. I think it was the collar of his mackintosh. Cross•examined by Mr. CLARKSON—There is no fracture of the skull, but the wounds on the head were amply sufficient to account for death. I have seen three sticks, the larger of which might have produced these wounds.—(The sticks were produced.) Ido not believe that concussion could arise from shakes. I never heard that concussion could be produced by struggling with another party. James Thomas, exa:nincd by Mr. BALLANTINE—I examined that part of the field where the body lay, and found a button lying near. I gave it to my inspector afterwards. George Loveridge (with Mr. Wildgoss, a news agent in high-street, Portland-town)—l as on the night of Fri day at the Swiss Cottage, Avenue-road. ',I saw the prisoner come into the house, and he passed by me into the parlour. when he came in he asked for the parlour. He had a cloak or mackintosh on him at the time. He came in in a very flurried state, and pushed the door back. I have seen him for three years. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON—I did state that he was in a flurried state when I was examined before the Magistrate. I do net remember whether the gas was alight. I suppose the gas was alight, for I was not in darkness. It was half-past seven, and it ought to be on by that time. Richard Graham examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—I am waiter at the Swiss Cottage. I remember a person coming in on the Friday night, and he asked for a glass of rum and brandy. He paid me Sd., that was 2d. for myself. On my examination before the magistrate I said the prisoner was not the man, but he said himself he was. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKsoN—I knew the hour from seeing the clock at the George public-house a few minutes before. The man who joined me went up to the body, and took hold of the hand. The man said he would stay with me till the stretcher came, as I was left alone. He said that he felt rather queer at the sight. He did not shed tears. He said he felt very much shocked at seeing such a sight. He remained with me till the stretcher came. It might be a quarter of an hour till then. There were several persons came up when the stretcher was brought. When the body was put on the stretcher there might be as many as fifteen persons. I have been examined before the Coroner. I was examined before him first. When I was examined before the magistrates the second time I did not give the same account that I did the first time. It is contrary to duty to receive money without reporting it to the inspector. That was not the reason I did not state it. It was because I thought it of no consequence. I stopped a gentleman the first time before I went into the field. Ido not know whether he is here to-day or not. Re-examined by Mr. BODKIN—That gentleman keeps a house at No. 4, Haverstock-terrace. His name is Delmer. I first saw him in Haverstock-terrace. He was on the side where the houses are. I did not see where he came from. He said— • FALLACIES of the FACULTY, with the Principles of the Chronothermal System of Medicine, in Ten Letters. By SAMUEL DICKSON, M.D. People's Edition enlarged. Price 2s. 6d. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON—The prisoner was in'about five or six minutes altogether. I noticed that his hands were very white. I did not see the prisoner reading the newspaper. Re-examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—I received the money myself from the prisoner. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON—I am positive he did not ask for the newspaper. Joseph Henry Nash examined by Mr. Bonxis—l live at 17, New Church-street, Paddington. On the night of Friday, the 21st February, I had some business near St. John's-wood, and came up the Avenue-road. I met a person there within one hundred yards of the Swiss Cottage. I cannot say what o'clock it was. Just before I had heard the cry of " Murder." I had only heard it once across the fields. I saw the place where the body was found, and the cry came from that direction. The man came in the same direction as myself. I had not noticed him before that night. There is a hedge bordering the road. I had known the man before. He is the prisoner at the bar. He was running when I saw him first. I spoke to him, and said, "Did you hear that cry of murder?" He made no answer, but went on at a dog-trot. I went after to the place of the murder, which was three fields, or about 100 yards, from the place I stood at that night. There is no difficulty in getting across the fields. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON—I was in the Avenue-road when I heard the cry of murder. That cry might have been heard ten minutes before. Sarah Jane Phipps was called, but for some time could not be examined—Having somewhat recovered, she was questioned by Mr. CHAMBERS—I knew the prisoner. I knew him for some time before the 21st of February. He had told me he was a clerk near the Stock Exchange. He was in the habit of coming to see me at No. 6, Bath place. On the 21st of February I slept at 17, Port land-place. I saw the prisoner there on that evening. I had no reason to expect him, but I did expect him. I thought he might come, He was not dressed as usual. Maria Edwards was there at the time. I did not particularly notice his dress. I re marked that there was a little blood on the front of his -shirt. He said he had been having a game with his governor. I saw some dirt on his coat, and I asked him if he had fallen. He said yes, and gave me to understand that he had been tipsy. He showed me a watch and ring. I had never seen him with either before. The watch had a yellow chain. It was a chain that passed round his neck. The watch he showed me was a silver one. It resembled the one now produced. He said he had purchased it on that day. I think he said he had given eight guineas for it. I do not remember where he said he bought it. He took the ring out of his pocket. He said it was the ring he had spoken about. I asked him why he did not wear it, and he replied it was too large. I have never seen the prisoner write, but I have received letters from him. He sometimes wrote in blue fluid and sometimes in black ink. The note produced is, I think, in the writing of the prisoner. Maria Edwards examined by Mr. BODKIN—I was in charge of the house in Portland-place, and the prisoner called on the night of the 21st of February there. He saw the lait witness. He had his mackintosh on his arm when be came in. He showed us the watch and ring. The chain of the watch was of a gold colour. He said he had bought it, but he did not say where. He produced a ring, and put it on in my presence, but afterwards returned it to his pocket, saying it was too large. At this period the jury retired for refreshment. The jury, after having been out for about half an an hour, returned, and the prisoner's brother was called into the witness box. " Something new in every page—Half-a-Crown never can be better spent than in the purchase of it, nor a few leisure hours iu the read ing of it."—Church and State Gazette... . _ James Rocker, examined by Mr. CLanasoN—My father lives at 17, Charles-street, and the prisoner and myself slept at 11, Victoria -terrace, Portland- town. On the evening of Friday, the 21st, my brother left home at a quarter to sever.. Haverstoek hill is about twenty minutes walk from Charles street. He told me he was going to receive some money, which he had expected for some five or six weeks, from Mrs. Edwards, of Bath-place ; she was going to lend him twelve sovereigns. He returned to Victoria-terrace about one o'clock in the morning. I was in bed, and when he came in, he said that he had received the twelve sovereigns. He said he had got rather more than he expected. When he took off his coat, I saw that the sleeve of his shirt was torn. He said that he had been with Sarah Cox and her brother, and had got it torn in romping. I never knew who Sarah Cox was. The next morning he came over to breakfast, and gave his father a sovereign, his mother one also, and paid me a half-sovereign he had owed me for four or five months. I had lent it to him as he was out months. em ployment. He had been out altogether for in our house, On the Saturday night Mr. Watson was u and we had some conversation about the murder. Mr. Watson said it was an awful thing; and I said I heard some people talking about it outside. My brother said we had met to enjoy ours e l ves, and that was a gloomy subject to talk upon. On Sun d ay, ftercoming from chapel ' my brother asked me to stayin a littlelonger. I did so. On the same night I read an account of the murder at a friend's house, and saw that a letter, addressed James Cooper, Hampstead, was found in the pocket of the deceased. I had seen my brother address letters to De larue by the name of Cooper. On the succeeding morning, I woke my brother, and asked him if he knew who was murdered at Hampstead ? He said, no ; and I told him it was poor Delarue He was much agitated, and said poor Delarue! I then went to my father's, and returned to Victoria-terrace almost immediately, when I observed that my brother had been crying. Afterwards, when in m y father's house, my father said he thought it was his duty to go to see the body. Re said ho would go. Soon after my mother came in, and said that the body had been owned by the brother. My brother then said he should not be required, and would not go to see the body. My brother showed me a watch. I had been told long before that he had sold or pledged a watch for Delarue. He gave me to understand that he had redeemed a watch which had been pledged, and I thought the one he showed me was the watch. The watch I -.ee here is the one he showed me. I recollect the officer Scotney coming into our room. My brother let him in. Scotney asked me if I had a watch. I said no ; and then he asked my brother if he had one. He looked confused, and attempted to reply. I interposed, and my brother then went to the pillow and gave Scotney the watch. He also brought him a watch case, and brought forward three duplicates, one for a watch, one for a ring, and one for a chain. I was surprised at seeing the duplicate for the watch, but in brother said the watch he showed me only came there on Friday morning. I did not see the watch in the course of Friday.

The gentleman parted with me near the George public-house, before I met the sergeant. He then went down Pond-street. By Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—I reported that I had seen the gentleman. Edward Hilton recalled and examined by Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—He was positive as to time, because he saw the clock in his progress from house to house. Thomas Fletcher, 24 S, examined by Mr. CHAMBERS —I was called by Baldock, the last witness, on the night of Friday, the 21st of February. I went with him into the Haverstock-field. The great-coat and under coat were open, and I found a walking-stick lying to the left of the body. The stick was produced. I found no property upon him. I examined his pockets ; not at that time, but afterwards. I went for the stretcher, and assisted to carry the body to the dead house at the York shire Grey. Cross-examined by Mr. B ALLA NTINE—I did not go to Bond-street to make inquiries on the following day. James Grey examined by Mr. BODKIN7I am an in spector of police. I recollect a commu nic a tion bein g made to me by Sergeant Fletcher on the night . of the 21st of February. He spoke to me some time a f ter eight o'clock. I went to the spot where the body was found. I received the letter signed "Caroline" from Mr. Perry, the surgeon. It was taken from the pockets of the deceased at the bone-house. I went to the spot of the meadow next morning, accompanied by a constable named Thomas. He found a button near the place. I saw the body identified by the deceased's brother. William Salloway examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—I live in Heath-street, Hampstead. I was not examined before either the Coro ner or Magistrate. I went to the field on the night of the murder. I ran forward first. I ceased s aw the policeman Baldoc k and another man by the h d e e a a t d i ; n body. The prisoner is the man I saw t h er e.

My brother was a schoolmaster, and could write very well. I don't know that this note is in my brother's handwriting, but it may be. He could write two or three hands. .Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON-1 - saw Delarue for the first time about four months ago just at dusk. I have heard my brother address him as Mr. Cooper. My father and mother were aware that my brother had got. money froze Delarue. I sin not aware that my brother had seen Mr. Delarue on the morning of the 21st. He said that he had not seen him. I knew that Mr. Delarue was anxious to et my brother a sit ua ti on . I a l wa y s un d ers t oo d that my brother was very much attached to him. I was working at home with my father as a shoemaker until past eight o'clock. I think that about twelve months ago my brother was paying attentions to a young lady at Hampstead. lam not aware that she was introduced to Delarue. His intimacy with her ceased about the month of June. I never knew her myself. I did not at any time press my brother for money. I would have been c on t en t e d t o h a V e l e t it re main till he got a situation. lam not aware that Delarue was in the habit of keeping a school. I did not observe any marks upon my brother's dress or person on his return on Saturday morning. There was a light in the room. My brother is twenty-two years old in May. lam his younger brother. Cross-examined by Mr. CWANIBERS—I cannot say how long it was before the 21st of February that Delarue gave my brother the ring for which the pawnbroker's duplicate has been produced Thomas !rocker examined by Mr. Bonxix.-1 am the father of the prisoner. The pnsoner boarded at my house in Charles -street. He was at home from fonr till about half-past, and when he went out he had on a hat and mac intosh. Ile said that he was going to get some money that he had previously told us off. lie said that he had re ceived a note from Mrs. Edwards, stating that she would be ready to accede to his request fur a loan on Sunday night, and he went en the Friday instead. (The prisoner's clothes were produced.) These are the clothes he had en on the Friday night. The ring I now see I found among the cuttings of leather, and it was given up to the police. I remember on the Sat ur d a y, a ft er the Friday, seeing the prisoner's shirt. It was torn, and he accou nted✓orit by. say. ing he had been frolicking the night before. I did not know Delarue. I knew that he went by the name of Cooper, and when I spoke to my son about it, lie said thathe went by that name merely because he was eccentric. William Watson—l am landlord of the house, No. 17, Charles-street. On the night of the 22d of February I was in company with the prisoner and his father, in the latter's house, when I said, "This is a shocking murder,arliamp stead, and no . one knows who did ii.". The father said," A murder at Hampstead% what a shocking thing." The father then asked how it was done, and I told him that suspicion attached to three soldiers, who were seen in that neighbourhood. The father said, oh ! the 'cold-blooded rascals. The:prisoner said, don't let us talk about that, it's a gloomy subject. Just then, the brother James came in and said that everybody was talking of a gentleman murdered at Hampstead, and a love letter was found in his pocket. The pri soner said, don't let's talk any more about that; sing you ; song ; then they sung a song. They afterwards sung a duet; but before they did so, the prisoner showed me his shirt and coat, which was torn on the left arm. He said, he bad been romping with a parcel of girls. I first heard of the murder on Monday night at 7 o'clock. I gave information to Scotney on Monday evening. Edward Scotney, examined by Mr. BODKIN—.I am a ser geant in the T division, and in consequence of information I received from Watson, I went to No. 11, "Victoria -terrace. I got. there about ten o'clock in the morning. A person came to the door, and I asked if Thomas !locker lived there? He said yes ; .I'm the person. I said I suppose you have heard of the murder of Mr. Delarue at Hampstead? lie said I have. And I said then I believe you were very intimate with him. He said yes; and I then informed him that I was a sergeant of police, and that I took him into custody on suspicion of the murder. I then went up to his room. His brother was there, and he desired him to get up and dress. I told him I meant to search for a watch which I believed belonged to Mr. Delarue. He said, "You may." His brother said, "Tell the policeman the truth, Tom, he does not believe you." The prisoner then went to the pillow and gave me the watch out. He said he had get it on Friday morning to pledge for him. He pro duced three other tickets for property which he said belonged to Delarue. Francis Partridge examined by Mr. CHAMBERS—I am an inspector of the A division. I went on the 25th of February with Scotney to apprehend the prisoner. I found in the prisoner's room a pair of trousers between the sacking of the bed, and a coat. I went on the succeeding day and made a further search. I found a shirt wristband, with a portion of the sleeve attached to it There were marks of blood upon it. I got a pair of trousers and waistcoat at 17, Charles street, Portland -town, where prisoner lived. There were marks of blood upon the waistcoat and' on the left sleeve of the coat. I found also bottles containing certain kinds of writing fluid and note-paper in the room at the father's house. I also found wafers marked with the letter F. I see that the wafer on this note is a duplicate of those found in the father's house. The note-paper also corresponds with that found me. I received a sovereign and a half from the prisone r s father. Inspector Shackell, of the Detective Police, produced the mackintosh found in the father's house. In conseqtwnee of certain information, I searched the prisoner's lodgings'along with Inspector Haynes, and got, from the parents of,the prisoner a shirt and pair of stockings, all stain e d w i t h b lood. I also found in the room the bill of the watch, produced and identified as that belonging to Delarue. Inspector Haynes, of the Detective Police, went with another officer and searched the room, where he found . a coat button. lie afterwards went to thellouse-of Correction and ordered the prisoner to take off his coat. He found the sleeve stained with blood, and the left-hand pocket all bloody, as if the baud had been thrust into it. He compared the button found in the field, as also that found in the room with certain buttons torn off his coat, ar.d they agreed. He also examined the prisoner's trousers and drawers, and dis covered that the left knee of either was stained with blood. The prisoner had no wound on any part of his person. Cross-examined by Mr. CLAns.sox—The buttons are-of a very common character, and may be met with every day. Daniel Delarue examined by Mr. Bonk - tx—l liveat 55, Whittlebury-street, Euston-square—l lived with my bro ther. I have been at the inquest, and saw his body there. The watch produced was the property of my brother. It had a gold chain, which he wore round his neck. I also know the ring, which I observed him wear on the Sunday I last saw him. Susan Kitchener, servant at the house, 55, Whittlebury street-4 saw Mr. Delarue on Friday, the 21st February. He said he was going out, and would return in an hour and a half. lie told me to keep his tire in. I know he had a watch, and I saw it on him about nine o'clock in the morn ing. I saw the gold chain hanging from the pocket as late as two o'clock. I should not know the watch. It was silver one. James Euston, police-constable in the D divison— I was in the cell with the prisoner, and he said, without my asking, that he wished to see the waiter of the Swiss Cottage. I told him he could see the gaoler. He did see him ; and, after he was gone, the prisoner said that he had gone to the Swiss Cottage a quarter of an hour after the murder, that he called for a glass of rum and water, and paid for it. lie said also, " There, that Baldock did not know me; I was Live -and twenty minutes in the field." That was just before the first examination. Sarah Ann Cox, examined by Mr. CIIAMBLRS-I knew Hocker on the 21st February. I had known him seven months. I did not see him on that night at all, nor for a month before. I did not see him romping with any girl in my company. Eleanor Edwards—l reside at 6, Bath- place. I have known the prisoner forabout ten weeks. He never made ap plication to me for a loan of money. I had no disposition to lend him any. By Mr. Justice Col.ErriDGE-1 did not know any members of his family. James Fell, Chief Clerk at Marylebone Police•ceurt, pro- duced the examinations taken at that court, and the few words said by the prisoner at the close of each examination. The letter signed " Caroline" was also put in and read. This closed the case for the prosecution. Mr. CLARKSON then said that his Learned Brother, Mr. Ballantine, and himself had attended for the defence, at the request of the Sheriffs of London, but as the prisoner him self had expressed a wish to address a few words to the gen tlemen of the jury, he trusted their Lordships would allow him to do so. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE had no objection, and informed the prisoner that if he wished live minutes leizure before making his defence, he was at liberty to retire for that time. The prisoner expressed his gratitude for this indulgence. After a few minutes the prisoner re• entered the box, and addressed the jury. De had carefully perused the deposi tions, and found nothing iu them with which to find the least objection. There were but two grand features in the whole of the evidence ; first, as to how his clothes came to be satu rated with blood'; and, secondly, how he came in possession of the deceased's property. The first be could satisfactorily account for; but nothing on this side of the grave should ever tempt bins to divulge the cause. If he were to fall lie should fall a martyr—if he lived he was dishonoured, and under these circumstances the former were the preferable alternative. The prisoner then adverted to the intimacy which had for so long a period existed between himself and the deceased—to the grants of money which had been re. ceived from the latter at different periods, and to the property—at times of considerable amount—. which had been entrusted to his possession. The watch and the ring had been given to him to get repaired and reset. Upon the morning of the murder the deceased had met bins, and with the kindness which be had formerly exhibited towards him he gave him the 121. which had been seen after wards in his possession. He had been so often assisted by the deceased that lie was ashamed to acknowledge the true source whence he had received the obligation, and therefore w it as was th th e a pe t he rso hnadwshtlaotehdadto ghiils.ernelahliiisn'estitiheamt 110IneaatielsetihEiceiodslurwuezaatisria00.0insef w m h o , T h in e g ha n d e sltsaatdedretcheakt-ehdethsheouglidft, heave th ap a r t ion 7 v . that evening.

He afterwardsed while with the p referred to a yo ung lady residing at Hampstead, to whom ho was ardently attached—beautiful and virtuous, the pride of a 'widowed mother, the hope of her family, the admirati on o f h er friends. T o t hi s lady he had imprudently introduced his deceased friend, James Delarue, who repaid with ingratitude and with villainy the trusting confidence of his friend. The young lady was seduced; and let the zentlemen of the jury picture to themselves the agony of the mother, the indignation of a beloved brother, and the ruined hopes of the young girl herself. Urgett by the family, he (the prisoner) had written the note which was discovered on the person of the deceased, appointing an assignation at the place which had been the scene of the seduction, and the deceased had it appeared attended at the hour appointed. The brother of this lady and he (the prison er ) t oo k the road to Haver stock-fields, but ere they came to the place they separated, the brother going on directly to the place and he (the prisoner) returning to the Swiss Cottage. There he waited for some short time drinking a glass of rum and water and reading the newspaper to a gentleman in the room. When he left he proceeded In the direction of the fields, and heard a cry of Murder 1" lie went to the place ; and could they think that if belied committed the murder he should have gone there? Was it likely he should have remained beside the body, or stopped to feel the deceased's pulse? Ile would not mention the person's name who had accompanied him, for he had already suffleiently injured the family, by introducing into its bosom the se ducer of the sister. It had never been proved that the stick produced at the examination had been is his possession: and he would conclude by assuring them that he wait innocent of the crime imputed to him. The prisoner, who had read the very lengthened address in a firm voice throughout, bowed and re-seated himself, and no witnesses being called for the defence, Mr. Justice COLERIDGE summed up, going over the evi dence of the different witnesses with the most minute perspicuity, and dwelling upon those parts of th e cue which seemed the most inTolved in mystery //.'
