' present—to apologise for those things ip i *r, - conduct which had offended him—to throw diystif . " upon his mercy—to beg for further time and in dulgence, for the sake of my family, if not fhr my self, and to make as good proinhes to him as I could have any hope of keeping. I did not hear from him oe that day nor tl:e next (Wednesday), but I found on Teursday he had been abroad in pursuit, of me without finding me. I itrisgiced he had thrgottsei the appointment, or else did nor mean to wait for it. I feared he would came in upon me at my lecture hour, or while I was preparing my experiments for it ; therefore I called at his house on that morning ( between eight and nine o'clock, to remind him of my wish to see him at the college at half-past one, my lecture closing at one. I did not stop to talk with him, for I expected the conversation would be a long one, and I had my lecture to prepare for, for it was necessary for me to have my time, and also to keep my mind free from other exciting matters. Dr. Parkmsn agreed to call on me as I proposed. He came, accordingly, b e t ween h a l f-past one and two o'clock, entering at the lecture-room door. I was engaged in removing seine glasses from my lecture-room table into the room in the rear, called the upper laboratory. He came rapidly down the step, and followed me i nto the laboratory. He im mediately addressed me with great energy, "Are you ready for me, sir I Have you got the money ?" I replied, " No, Dr. Parkmsn," and I was then be ginning to state my condition, and my appeal to him, but he would nut listen to me, and interrupted me with much vehemence. He called me a scoundrel and liar, and went on heaping on me the most bitter taunts and opprobrious epithets. While he was speaking he drew a handful of papers from his pocket, and took from among them my two notes, and also au old letter from Dr. Hossack, written many years ago, congratulating him on his successs in get ting me appointed professor of chemistry. " You see," he said, "I got you into your office, and now I will get you out of it." He put back into his pocket all the papers except the letter and the notes. I cannot tell how long the torrent of threats and invec tives continued, and I can recall to memory but a small portion of what he said. At first I kept inter ' posing, trying to pacify him, so that I might obtain the object for which I sought the interview, but I could not stop him, and soon my own temper was up; I forgot everything, and felt nothing but the sting erhis words. .1 .was excited to the highest degree of passion, and w hil e h e was spea ki ng and gesticulating in the most violent and menacing, manner, thrusting the letter and his fist into my face, in my fury 1 seized whatever thing was handiest (it was a stick of wood), and dealt him an instanta neous blow with all the force that passion could give it. I did not know, or think, or care, where I should hit him, nor how hard, nor what the effect would be. It was on the side of his head, and there was nothing to break the force of the blow. He fell instantly upon the pavement. There was no second blow ; he did not move. I stooped down over him, and he seemed to be lifeless. Blood flawed from his mouth, and I got a sponge and wiped it away. I got some ammonia and applied it to his nose, but without effect. Per haps I spent ten minutes in attempts to resusciate him, but I found he was absolutely dead. In my horror and consternation I ran instinctively to the doors and bolted them, the doors of the lecture-room and of the laboratory below. And then, what was I to do? It never occurred to me to go out and de clare what had been done, and obtain assistance. I saw nothing but the alternative of a successful move ment and concealment of the body on the one hand, and of infamy and destruction' on the other. The first thing I did, as seem as I could do anything, was to draw the body into the private room adjoining, where I took off the clothes, and began putting them into the fire, which was burning in the upper laboratory. They were all consumed there that afternoon, with pipers, pocketbook, and whatever they contained. I did not examine the pockets, nor remove anything, except the watch. I saw that, or the chain of it, hanging out. I took it, and threw it over the bridge as 1 went to Cambridge. My next wove was to get the body into the sink, which stands in the small private room ; by setting the body par tially erect against the corner, and by getting up into the sink myself, I succeeded in drawing it up there. It was entirely dismembered. It was quickly done, as a work of terrible and desperate necessity. The only instrument was the knife found by the officers in the tea chest, which I kept for cutting corks. I made no use of the Turkish kuife, as it was called at the trial. That had long been kept on my parlour mantelpiece in Cambridge, as a curious ornament. My daughters frequently cleaned it ; hence the marks of oil and whiting found on it. I had lately brought it into Boston to get the silver sheath repaired. While dismembering the body a stream of Cochituate water was running through the sink, carrying off the blood in a pipe that passed down through the lower labo ratory There must have been a leak in the pipe, for the ceiling below was stained immediately around it. There was a fire burning in the furnace of the lower laboratory. Littlefield was mistaken in thinking there never had been a fire there. He had probably never kindled one, but I had done it myself several times. I had done it that day for the purpose of making oxygen gas . Th e h ea d an d v i scera were putinto that furnace that day, and the fuel heaped on. I did not examine at night to.see to what degree they were consumed. Some of the extremities were put in there, I believe on that day ; the pelvis, and some of the limbs, perhaps, were all put under the lid of the lecture-room table, in what is called the well— a deep sink, lined with lead ; a stream of Cochituate was turned into it, and kept running through it all Friday night; the thorax was put into a similar well, in the lower laboratory, which I filled with water, and threw in a quantity of potash, which I found there. This disposition of the remains was not changed till after the visit of the officers on 'Monday. When the body hail been thus all disposed of, I cleared away all traces of what had been done. I think the stick with which the fatal blow had been struck proved to be a piece of the stump of a large grape vine—say two inches in diameter, and two feet long. It was one of several pieces which I had car ried in from Cambridge long before, for the purpose of showing the effect of certain chemical fluids in colouring wood, by being absorbed into the pores. The grape vine, being a very porous wood, was well adapted to this purpose. Another longer stick had been used as intended, and exhibited to the students. This one had not been used. I put it into the fire I took up the two notes either from the table or the floor, I think the table, close by where Dr. Parkman had fallen. I seized an old metallic pen lying on the table, dashed it across the face, and through the sig natures, and put them in my pocket. Ido not know why I aid tnis rather than put them in the fire, for I had not considered for a moment what effect either mode of disposing of them would have on the mortgage, or my indebtedness to Dr. P. and the other persons in • terested, and I had not 3, et given asingle thought to the question as to what account I should give of the ob ject or result of my interview with Dr. Parkman. I never saw the sledge-hammer spoken of by Little field ; never knew of its existence, at least I have no recollection of it. I left the College to go home as late as six o'clock. I collected myself as well as I could, that I might meet my family and others with composure. On Saturday I visited my rooms at the college, but made no change in the disposition of the remains, and laid no plans as to my future course. On Saturday evening I read the notice in the Trans cript respecting his disappearance. I was then deeply impressed with the necessity of immediately taking seine ground as to the character of my inter view with Dr. Perktnan, for I saw that it must be come known that I had had such an interview, as I had appointed it first by an unsealed note an Tuesday, and on Friday had myself called at his house in open day, e.nd ratified the arrangement, and had there been seen, and had probably been overheard by the man servant, and I knew not by how many persons. Dr. P. might have been seen entering my rooms, or how many persons he might have told by the way where he wt s going—the interview would in all probability be known, and I must be ready to explain it. The question exerci esi me much, but on Sunday my course was taken. I would go into Boston and be the first to declare myself the person, as yet unknown, with whom De. P. had made the appointment. I would take the ground that I had invited him to the college to pay him money, and that I had paid it. Accordingly I fixed upon the sum by taking the small note and adding interest, which, it appears, I cast erroneously. if I had thought of this course earlier, I should not have deposited Pettee's cheque for 90 dollars in the Charles River Bank on Saturday, but should have suppressed it, as going so far to make up the sum which I was to have professed to hive paid the thy before, and which Pettee knew I had by me at the hour of interview. It had not occurred to me that I should ever show the notes cancelled in proof of it, or I should have destroyed the large note, and let it be inferred that it was gone with the missing man, and I should only have kept the small one, which was all that I could pretend i to have paid.

I should have drawn my money from the bank, and and taken occasion to "mention to the castlisr that I had a sum to make up on that day for D.

Beckett and Co. Mr. Overend and Mr. Hardy were for the prosecu tion ; Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. Hall were for the prisoners. Augustus Holman was the father of Joseph Hol man. He pleaded guilty to the three charges ; and in consideration of the youth of the other prisoner, and the fact that he was employed as his father's clerk, no evidence was offered by the prosecution against him. Witnesses were called, who spoke to the good character of the older prisoner up to these transactions ; but it transpired that his total defalca tions will amount to nearly 4,0001. The younger prisoner was at once liberated from custody. _ ...; William Milner Hewitt, Benjamin Haste, and Tho mas Atkinson, were indicted for a violent and felonious assault on John Harrop, in the streets of Leeds, and for stealing from his person a silver watch, a shilling, and some other articles. Mr. Overend and Mr. Middleton were for the pro secution ; the prisoners were undefended. It appeared that the prosecutor had been at the house of a friend in Leeds on the night of the Ist of July, and that soon after twelve o'clock he, accompa nied by his wife and another woman, were going on their way to Holbeck over Leeds-bridge. They were accosted by the prisoner Hewitt, and, he, having at tempted some rudeness to the women, a scuffle took place between him and the prosecutor. On a signal being given, three other men rushed up. llarrop ran to some distance, and was pursued and knocked down, and while he was lying in the road his watch•guard was broken from his neck, his watch was taken, and his pockets were rifled. Two men who were in the streets witnessed the violence of the prisoners, and aided in the pursuit. It was also proved by the police that the three prisoners hed been seen together in Kirkgate on the night in question. The Learned JUDGE summed up the evidence; the jury returned a verdict of Guilty against each of the prisoner:, and the Court sentenced them severally to be transported for ten years. OXFORD ClRC:UlT.—Oxford, July 15. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice W ILL IAMS.) _ _ There were six causes entered for trial, of which three were for special juries. The first was an action of ejectment, in which the defendant did not appear to confess lease, entry, and outset, and the plaintiff was therefore nonsuited, and, as a consequence of the nonsuit, obtained an order for delivery of possession within a week. The second was an action for 491, 135., the price of some farming utensils sold by the plaintiff to the defendant. The defence was that the defendant bought the goods of a third party, and paid him for them. That party was called, and swore that he bought the goods at an auction of the plaintiff's goods for himself, and then sold them to the defendant, and was paid by him for them; but the jury did not ba lieve this tale, and found a verdict for the plaintiff, the Judge expressing his approbation of the view taken by them of the credit due to the witness. DOE DEM. WEAVING AND PINNOCE, GATHAILD, AND THIRTY OTHERS--THE CHARTIST LAND SCHEME. Mr. Keating, Q.C., and Mr. Pigott, were counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. Gray for the defendants. This was an action of ejectment to recover posses sion of the land held by the Chartists allottees at Minster Lovel, in this county. Mr. Keating, in stating the plaintiff's case, said they were the devisees in trust of Mr. John Walker, a farmer, at Minster Lovel, in this county, who died in 1842, bequeathing his real property, which in cluded the land in question, to them as trustees for the purposes of his will ; and the defendants were members of the National Land Chartist Association, or some such association, which Mr. Feargus O'Connor started some time ago, and who, as mem bers of that association, became the fortunate allot- tees of portions of the property in question. Mr. Feargus O'Connor, in fact, never had the legal estate in his hand. He did not know whether they claimed under Mr. O'Connor. lie understood that they disclaimed all connexion with him, and said the land was their own ; but, in fact, they had no title. He would prove the seisin and title of the lessors of .the plaintiffs, and until he heard what title the defendants claimed, it was unnecessary for him to go further. Great numbers of the allot tees had already very wisely given up possession, and it was only against those who refused to do so that the ejectment was brought. Mr. James. Long, an auctioneer, proved that the late Mr. Walker was the owner of the land on which the defendants' allotments were. In cross-exatnina- tion, he said there were as many as 80 houses built on the property, and that Mr. O'Connor paid for the erection of them. He had been present at the sale of the land by auction, when it was knocked down to Mr. O'Connor. F. C. Haynes produced, from the Archdeacon's register, the will of the late Mr. Walker. Its execu tion was proved by another witness. Mr. James Leek, of Witney, having been called for the plaintiffs, in cross-examination stated he spoke to Mr. Weaving in October last respecting those allot ments, and that Mr. Weaving said that all the inte rest due to him and his co-trustee had been paid to them, and that this ejectment was not brought by his wish or desire, but of Mr. O'Connor. The plaintiffs' case having been formally proved, Mr. GRAY declined to address the jury, and there was a verdict for the plaintiffs. An application was then made for immediate pos session. Mr. G-RAY objected that it was clear all the interest money had been paid up, and that the plaintiffs had brought only a very small part of their case before the Court. His LORDSHIP said he would not interfere WESTERN CI ItCl7lT.—Winchester, July 16. CROWN COURT.—(Befure RUSSELL CiURNEY, Q C. Sophia Wheeler Winter was placed at the bar, charged with having feloniously intermarried with Alfred Dodswell, her former husband William Winter being alive. Mr. Sewell conducted the prosecution, Mr. C. Saunders defended the prisoner. It appeared by the evidence that the prisoner, who is a pretty, interesting-looking, young woman, was married in 1837 to William Winter, a respectable tradesman at Portsea. She at that time was very young. She lived very happily with her husband for some years, and had several children by him ; but he received an appointment which took him abroad. There he remained for some years, when she became acquainted with Alfred Dodswell, the son of a lieu tenaut in the navy, residing at Portsmouth. He be came much attached to her, and eventually persuaded her to marry him, telling her that the first marriage was not a legal one, as she was a minor when it was contracted, and under that idea she consented to marry him. This was in 1848. They lived to gether up to May last, when William Winter, her first husband, returned. The poor girl was then made to understand that her first marriage was a perfectly legal one, on which she refused to live any longer with Dodswell, but returned to her first husband, upon which Dodswell instituted the present prosecution. These facts were elicited from him by the Counsel for the defence, who, in his address to the jury, commented most strongly on his conduct, and contended that the prosecution ought never to have been instituted, but that the poor girl was the victim of the prosecutor throughout ; it was clear she had no felonious intent whatever in marrying the second husband, but had done so under the idea that the first marriage was illegal. The Learned JUDGE said every one who had heard the case must regret that the prosecution had ever been instituted; however, as it was before the Court and jury, they must deal with it according to law, and it was his duty to tell them that, in his opinion, the legaLoffence of bigamy had been made out. The jury, however, were not inclined to adopt his Lordship's view of the case, and acted on the prin ciple of doing substantial justice between the parties, by Acquitting the prisoner. The Learned JUDGE refused to allow the expenses of the prosecution. The prisoner throughout the whole trial was dread fully affected, and excited the greatest interest in a crowded court. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Neither of the constables had any recraection of seeing the de fen:lant in the par!: except on this occasion. Mr. Parry contended that the legal offence . had not been made out, inaKnuch as the evidence did not go far enough to show that the defendant had "inten tionally" insulted any one. ' Mr. BINGHAM could not presume to doubt the evidence that had been tendered. With respect to the point raised by the Learned Counsel, that the legal offence had not been male out because no suffi - cient proof of" intention" to insult had been .brought forward, it had been constantly laid down in criminal courts and in the superior courts, that a man must be presumed in law to intend that which is the neces sary consequence of his actions. As the defendant was not known, and was a young man, he would allow those circumstances to operate towards a mitigation of the term of imprisonment. The defendant was then convicted as a rogue and vagabond, and sent to prison and hard labour for six weeks. Mr. Parry gave notice of appeal. Bail was applied for. Mr. Bingham fixed the amount in 1001. two sureties, and 2001. the defendant himself. A merchant living at Gordon-house, Clapham, and a relative in the Middle Temple-lane offered them selves, and their bail was accepted. About forty summonses were heard at this court against cab drivers t.nd omnibuses for loitering and other small offences. The police were in every instance the informers. Mr. Hardwick, one of the Hammersmith omnibus proprietors, and one of the defendants, complained that he had been served with no less than twenty eight of these summonses for stopping two or three minutes at the White Horse, Piccadilly, without having had the least intimation of the new rules issued to the police. He also complained that the omnibuses of the other companies were not summoned, but that the Hammersmith companies bad only been selected. The omnibuses had only done what they had been in the habit of doing for years past, and which he believed had been sanctioned by the magistrates. It was, therefore, rather hard for the police, without any warning whatever, to get twenty eight cases all at once, some eight days old, when one case would have been quite sufficient for their purpose. Mr. 13INGHAM said the law did not permit omni buses to stand even for a minute in the public streets if not engaged in setting down or taking up passen gers. Mr. Leadley, the chief clerk, mentioned to Mr. Bingham that an arrangement had been come to by the magistrates who formerly sat in this court, which tolerated the standing of omnibuses at the White liorpe for two or three minutes, as that was the half journey, and was found to be of great public conve nience. Mr. limo HAM thought, under the circumstances of the case, the police ought to take the expenses in one case only, and withdraw the other twenty-seven sum monses. As to the charge of favouriti%m, he could not believe it could be substantilted, as his time was for two days in the week taken up with these cases, which embraced every class of hackney vehicles and omnibuses. Seven more summonses served in court on Mr. Hardwick were alio ordered to be included in the above arrangement. LAMBETH. Mr. john IJfaddle, whose name has been frequently before the public within the last few months, in conse quence of the mysterious death of his housekeeper, Sarah Snelling, during his absence at church, attended before Mr. Norton to answer to a summons, calling upon him to show cause why he detained seven gowns and other articles of wearing apparel, the property of the late Mrs. Sarah Snelling ; and also thirty shil lings in money belonging to the deceased, which he held in his hands since the death of hii housekeeper. The whole of the circumstances having been before brought under the cognizance of the magistrate, when the application for the summons had been made to him, he, Mr. Norton, asked Mr. Maddle his objection to deliver the property to the complainant in the case, who it was not denied was the daughter of the de • deceased, and who was in Mr. Norton's opinion en titled to it ? Mr. Maddle, in reply, said that his only wish in the matter was that of giving the property to the rightful owner, and had therefore requested the brother of his late housekeeper to take out letters of administration, when he should at once have given up the things. This, however, was refused, and having a good deal of trou ble in the matter, it was his wish not to let any on© have the wearing apparel and goods excepting those strictly entitled to them. The complainant produced a note from her uncle, in which he relinquished all claim in her favour, and Mr. Maddle ultimately consented, on the strong re commendation of the magistrate, to give up the goods and money, and thus the matter has terminated, and both parties left the court apparently perfectly satisfied. GREENWICH. John Edward Spooner, alias Percival, was brought before Mr. Secker charged with attempting to drown Captain Alexander Sheriff, the superintendent of the East Country Dock. The prisoner having been placed in the felon's dock by Police-constable William Noakes, 104 M, who had apprehended him during the preparations making for a fete at Birmingham, Captain Sheriff entered the witness-box, and deposed as follows :—The prisoner was in the employ of the East Country Dock Com pany, Rotherhithe, up to the 25th June last, as a deal porter. I had frequently cautioned the foreman not to employ the prisoner. I had particular reasons for so doing. My instructions were, after a time, attended to, and the prisoner ceased to be employed. On Tues lay the 25th ult., I was walking round the dock, when the prisoner came up to me, and said that the foreman had dischrtrged him, and demanded of me to know on what ground I declined to hold converse with him. I told him to go about his business and leave the dock. He made no reply, and I walked away along the dock side. After going a few paces I ound myself pushed violently, and received a tre mendous lunge behind, and in an instant afterwards found myself in the waters of the dock, which is about eighteen feet deep ; the fall to the surface is eight feet. Being able to switn in early life, I was in a condition to keep above water until assisted by the man at work.

The prosecutor, a highly respectable man, 75 years of age, has been upwards of 30 years in the employ. MURDER OF DR. PARKMAN. CONFESSION OF PROFESSOR WEBSTER.
