Com pany is incorporated. They arc ready to receive applications for the New Shares of 201. each, authorised by the amended Act to be iss-ed. Upon the amount of deposits and calls. intereot, at the rate of four per cent. per annum, will be allowed from th.a day of payment ; and by the Act of locorporation Shareholders a're only liable to the amount of the shares. ALEX. OftEIG, Secretary. 7, Waterloo-place, Pall- ma l l, Jul;l4, 184 7. , The Company's plans have been k.lseeilY. tried* aad their advan tages proved, on a farm of 300 acres near Glasgow. At Edineitirgh the applioatton of 'sewage Netter has raised the value of land from 2s. 6d. an acre to 151. and 201., and at Mansfield from 4s. 6d. to 11/. 4s. The Select Committee of the House of Commons on the Company's Bill " urge the importance of the project," and declare their opinion "y te t m h p a l t a o t e n d lthe d a g a en nd cy a o p f p l a i e c o d to m p t a h n e y n or the objects Purposes of Cleansing our Towns, Purifying our Rivers, and Enriching our Soil." Again, the Report of Her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and Forests rrouounces " the prinelp'e involved" to be " national." The establishment of this Company may therefore be regarded as the commencement of a system fraught with great national benefits, contemplating not only profi , upon invested capital, but increased comfort and improved health to the inhabitants of towns, and Ines timable advantages to the azriculture of the United Kingdom. The most careful calculation that has been mule, exhibits a profit of from 15 to 20 per cent.; this calculation was based upon the esti mated supply of Sewage to 39,000 acres, but since that Vine Farmers, Market Gardeners, and Landowners, cultivating about 68,000 acres of land have, by petition to Parliament, expressed their anxiety to take a supply of Sewage Manure from the Company. The Act of Incorporation requires that at least three months' notice shall elapse between the Call, which shall not exceed 21. 10s. per Share. Five per cent. Interest will be paid on all sums received in advance of Calls. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SILAREI. To the Directors of the Metropolitan Sewage Manure Company.

An important inquest was held at Putney on the Bth and continued by adjournment to the 14th instant before W. Celt -r,lEsq., coroner for East Surrey, and a highly respectable jury. The coroner stated that the inqui sition was held in consequence of a letter which he had received from Dr. Cormack, " anxiously requesting" in quiry into the cause of the death of - deceased, Sophia Dallett. Maria Rose Dallett, spinster, sworn—l am sister of the deceased, Sophia Dallett. My father is a tallow chandler. I reside with him as part of his family. My deceased sister would have been fifteen in September. On Sunday last, the 3d instant, at seven or eight, P.M., she was taken with shivering. I was with her at the time in the parlour. No one else was present. She had been poorly from Thursday evening, the Ist instant, but before Thursday was not unwell. On Thursday she had a little simple medicine—pills, which she was in the habit of taking. They are Mr. Farmer's pills, and are sold in boxes as "Farmer's Antibilious Pills." On Sun day, when she had the shivering, I assisted her to un dress, and sent for more medicine to Mr. Farmer. My sisters Elizabeth and Mary Anne went for it. I desired them to say to Mr. Farmer that the deceased had been seized with shivering and telt very sick. [By sick, as subsequently appeared, witness meant nausea and vo (liking.' Mr. Farmer is not a medical man; he is chemist. My sisters brought back a powder and a. draught, which I received from them. I gave the powder to the deceased, but the draught, in accordance with the directions, I reserved for the morning. I had no know ledge whatever of the nature or parts of the powder. The powder was given at pine o'clock on Sunday evening She then appeared to be very poorly—by poorly I mean sick and feverish. She returned the powder ; at least. she vomited freely half an hour after taking it. At this time she had no other symptoms except fever and sick ness. She slept comfortably during the night, and took the draught in the morning at half-past seven or eight o'clock. She took it voluntarily. During Monday shi was not so well. It was not till six or seven o'clock in the evening that I observed her to be worse. Before -his the draught had operated, but only a little. During that day (Monday) she had no symptoms of sickness, ant was chilly. She arose from bed, and I assisted hei to dress. She left her bedroom, but remained in a room :adjoining her bedroom for five or six hours. She took b in re t a h k e fa e s v t e ; n f i o ng r dinner. I concludedm u tlon t a h n a d t m t h a a t t o c t a l ü b i r e o o h been returned. I had no misgivings as to the efficacy o , the aten ad tteoa medicine not operating more was the powder having Mr. Farmer's medicines. On Monday night I did not judge there was any necessity for calling in medical ad vice. She was worse and had shivering on Monday at six' or seven, P.M. What did you do?—I sent my sister Mary Anne for more medicine to Mr. Farmer. I did not send for an) particular medicine. I told my sister to get the medi ,,ine Mr. Farmer thought necessary. My sister returned with a powder, a draught, and a saline mixture. She took the powder immediately, and in two or three hours afterwards one dose of the saline mixture. The second powder was retained. She passed a good night. In the morning of Tuesday she took the draught, which ope- rated ita about an hour. ..._ it Did operate violently or gently?—lt caused neither a violent nor a gentle operation. I now sent for Dr. Cormack. Did you see any previous necessity for sending for Dr. Cormack?—No. Why did you now send for him?—Because my sister was very low. Did Dr. Cormack come immediately?—lmmediately. Deceased had been sick, and the medicine had operated at the time Dr. C. first saw her. She had not been out of her bed that morning. The calling in of Dr. Cur mack had no reference to the medicine which had beer, (liken. At first the medicine did not operate violently. It was at nine, _cm , on Tuesday (6th instant) that Dr. C. first saw deceased. He took her case in hand, and prescribed. The servant went for the medicine. She brought back two mixtures. One was labelled, " Hall to be taken now, the remainder in two hours." This mixture was taken as directed. The second mixture labelled, " Half in an hour atter the other, if the sick ness continued." None of this mixture was taken till the doctor's second visit, at twelve o'clock ; and there never was more than part of it taken, as it was not re quired for the sickness. On the morning of Tuesday she complained of pain in her stomach ; and after taking tea at breakfast time, shortly before Dr. C.'s; visit, she was sick, rather violently. The intermissions between t p h lus eattacksof e s rl ic ti k nt ne i ss were short. Dr. C.'s seco n d v i sit was between twelve and one, I think. We wer e to ld b ) 'he doctor, at his first visit, that it was probably a l ow 'ever, which might continue for some time. N o intima tion of present danger was given. At th e secon d v i s it the doctor ordered but foment.t;. I . ‘n . b i :Cnrirelkiiment, which was used according to directions. These applications were first made at half-past one, and they were continued till halt past three. The fomentation was simple hot water, After the fomenting and the use of the liniment she was better. The servant first brought the liniment, and afterwards the pills. The pills were labelled " A pill every night ;" but the verbal directions of the doctor to me, and also of the doctor's assistant to the servant, was " A pill every hour." I sent to inquire how the pill, were to be taken, and they were given accordingly— one every hour, the first being taken at ten minutes after four, and the last twenty minutes after six. After the pills she seemed better. She woke up, and, at seven, or a little after seven, took some tea, with a very little toast. She seemed much refreshed and better. The doctor saw her again at eight, or half-past eight, when he said that she was decidedly better. He sent her some ginger-beer powders, to be taken if she com plained of thirst. I sat up with her. About ten shi seemed very drowsy. About four in the morning (Wed nesday) I sent for the doctor. He came immediately. He ordered some brandy and water, which she took ; afterwards, some white wine. She did not appear to know what she was doing. The doctor wished her to be roused. She was taken out of bed and to the next room. Dr. Wane and Mr, Shilito attended, at the desire of Dr. Cormack. When Dr. Cormack was sent for on this last Jecasion, he expressed surprise. We had every confi dence in the skill and ability of Dr. Cormack. I could not account for the stupor ; but the doctor said it might be the liniment. Nothing beyond the result has caused dissatisfaction in the family. It was not expected. 1 understand that this inquest is held at the request of Dr. Cormack. I did not speak to the other medical men as to the cause of the sudden change. I cannot say whether my father would have had an inquest had the doctor not proposed it. The doctor was so quick in proposing ar inquest that we had no time to think of it sooner. He is our usual medical attendant. Cross-examined by Dr. Cormack—l told the doctor that the medicine prescribed by Mr. Farmer, had acted as an aperient. The doctor said it had, perhaps, been too searching. I do not recollect informing Dr. Cormack that any of Mr. Farmer's pills had been administered to deceased. I do not recollect mentioning the saline mix ture to the doctor. I think I mentioned both powder: and both draughts. Do you recollect of mentioning the medicine which deceased had had simply thus—" She has had a powder and a draught from over the way ?"—I do not recollect my exact words. Dr. Cormack, said, at his first visit, the pain may not be inflammatory, but only griping, from the medicine. Deceased was not always insensible; efter Dr. C. came in on the Wednesday morning, she mentioned him by name when roused. I think this was in the passage, but I do not recollect the exact time. She put out her tongue when asked loudly. Elizabeth Dallett and Mary Anne Dallett corroborated their sister's testimony as to fetching the medicine from Farmer's, and delivering it to their sister Maria. John Farmer, chemist—l recollect Elizabeth and Mary Anne Dallett calling at my shop on Sunday even ing. I proposed to give them a powder and a draught for the deceased, who was said by them to be fifteen years of age. No particular kind of medicine was asked for. Minutely inquired into the symptoms. The powder consisted of four grains of grey powder, to be taken at bed time. Grey powder is the mildest preparation o: mercury. The draught was a common black draught of senna and other ingredients. On Monday evening, Miss Mary Anne Dallett called and stated that the powde' had been rejected, from sickness, and the draught had acted only once, and that mildly. She said that the de ceased would require more active medicine, and that she had pain. In consequence of this statement, I gave a powder composed of five grains of grey powder and three grains of Dover's powder. I added the Dover's powder that the dose might be retained on the stomach. I gave on this occasion a draught, the same as the former, to be taken in the morning. I also suggested and supplied a simple saline mixture, directing twe table spoonfuls to !rte given if the sickness name on. The quantities of th( various medicines which I supplied were the usual quan tities fur a person of the age of deceased. I have beer, to the habit of supplying tile family of d, ceased with my mild anti-bilious pills. They contain in each pill one grain of blue pill. '1 hey are mild pills. I have no ob jection to state of what they are composed. In addi tion to the blue pill, they contain extract of seanimony and the watery extract of aloes. One 'is an ordinary dose for a person of the ago of deceased ; but two are quite safe for one of constipated habit. On Sunday evening I was informed by the sisters of the deceased that the bowels of deceased had not been acted on since Friday, and I was told that she was complaining of he i ad ie ache, giddiness, sickness, and pain of the stomach. illness was described as a little bilious attack. I do not visit patients. I do not prescribe. I suggest what medi cine should be taken. I did not prescribe for the de ceased ; but I suggested, and dispensed the medicine for her. On Wednesday morning I was asked by some one from Mr. Dallett's to go there. I went. The deceased was unal.tle to walk. She was supported in an upright position. I saw there Dr. Cormack, Mr. Dallett, an d ' his three daughters. From my own knowledge, I have no conception of the cause of death. I asked the medical gentleman the cause of the illness, but got no answer. Cross-examined by Dr. Cormack—When I prescribed for deceaseC, I made no inquiry as to the state of her pulse. [On OIL answer being given, a juror re , l: , Oces c i th was not usual when one went to a chemist for a dose to say anything about the pulse.] John Rose Cormack—l am a doctor of medicine, and reside in Putney.ll was first called in to the deceased ... on Tuesday, the sth, at fine iii the morning. I received an urgent message, and went without losing a moment. I found the deceased in bed. I asked he sister Maria what the symptoms were, and was told that she had been " poorly' for some days. I was told that the disease set in with shivering. I certainly unders!eod that no medicine of any kind had been given exceptiox a brown powder on the preceding evening, and a black dose that morning ; and that these medicines had been got from " over the was." I asked what the powder and draught consisted of, and was told that she supposed both to be common , aperient medieines. I asked the colour of the powder, and was told that it was brown. I could get no definite or dis tinct account of the medicine, excepting that the powder was brown, and the draught black. I boncluded that both were ordinary aperients; and proceeded to examine the patient for myself. I found the pulse as she wrist feeble and irregular; the heart's action was feeble and irregular. The tongue was loaded, but not parched. She seemed to be in an extremely depressed state. I thought the pupils were somewhat contracted. I examined into the state of the secretions, and learned that the urine was high coloured and scanty; and that on that morning the discharge from the bowels had been very abundant. I asked if I could see the discharge from the bowels, and was told I could not. I asked if it was thin and watery, or if it had som e consi‘tence; I was told that it had some consistence, and was " bad" in appearance and smell. I thought that this discharge was ',wing to the operation of the medicine. There was a natural moisture on the skin—perhaps a little more than the natural moisture. What particularly struck me was the extreme depression and the contracted pupils. These symptoms indicated, or rather I should say led me to tread pressure on the brain, such as is seen in the course of continued fever. I learned that the disease had set in some days before with head-ache and shiver, ing. This circunistance, and the state in which I found her, led me to infer that she had been for four or five lays, or longer, affected with continued lever of a yphoid character—that is, a low nervous fever which (if fbe patient lives) runs through a definite course. I inti nated this opinion to the relatives. Nervous fever of this kind is a very serious disease. In reference to the abdominal pain, which was severe, I said " Let us hope - hat it is only the medicine." I did not convey, or wish o convey, the idea that the disease arose from improper medicine. I had a dread that it might be a severe torn of abdominal inflammation, well known to medical nei• is a dangerous complication of continued fever. In prescribing, my object was to support the powers of life. md to allay the vomiting and purging. I prescribed e mixture to be taken in two doses. (The prescriptions, as written at the time, were produced in court at TIT% C.'s request.) The following is the composition of this mixture. Of the Edinburgh solution or the hydroehlo rate of morphia twelve drops, tincture of orarge-peto one drachm (a tea-spoon-full), and of camphor mixture ;wo ounces. The morphia in this mixture may be esti mated as equal to half a grain of opium. .I gave so .mall a quantity of opium on account of the cerebral symptoms. I thought the camphor would be useful :is a diffusible stimulant. I thought it would tend to sup port life. Along with this mixture I sent another onr ~once and a half of the creasote mixture of the Edin burgh Pharmacopmia. Of this I directed the half to be taken, one hour after tl e last dose of the other mixture. Creasote is of use in allaying vomiting. The opium was Intended to check the discharges, and arrest inflamma (ory action, by keeping the intestines in a state of re pose. I left the house, saying that I would return in a iew hours, but if required, would be found at home. I went home. I then went down to my dispensary, when I was told that Mr. Dallet's servant had— The CORONER here stopped witness, saying that what one person told another person was not evidence ; it could not be listened to. Witness continued—My second visit to deceased wet between twelve and one. Th. pulse was imps oved ; the vomiting was going on ; it had changed its character. I saw a chamber pot about half full, of what at first ap peared to me from the d irkness of the room to be urine. a whitish colour. I said to Miss Maria, "I am glad to ,ee she has made so much water ;" and was answered, " She has made no water ; all that has been passed from the bowels." On carefully examining the abdomen with the hand, I found that the pain on pressure had mate rially increased since my first visit, and the vomiting and purging, though diminished, still continued, in spite of the remedies. At this visit I directed one part of the creasote mixture to be taken ; none of it had been taken, out both doses of the other mixture had been taken. I was still careful of how I used opium, which, but for the eertbral symptoms, would have been freely resorted to. [ was anxious also not to mask the disease. In all the circumstances, I considered that the safest course was to it-der a stimulating liniment containing some opium, in ~ he form of laudanum, to be npoiod to the asst. of it turpentine, 5 drachms ; liniment of the sesquicarbonate of ammonia, of London Pharmacopoeia (the mild harts born liniment), 5 drachms ; and of laudanum, 2 drachms. A. drachm is 60 drops, or in other words, about a tea spoonful. I directed part of this liniment to be applied to the abdomen by means of a piece of flannel, and I di rtctod that above the flannel, hot water fomentations were to be kept up for two hours. I prescribed three pills to be taken, one every hour, after the liniment had oeen used for two hours, in the event of the pain, purging, or vomiting remaining. When the liniment was on, and before the pills were commenced, I directed the creasote mixture to be given,, should vomiting recur. I said that wine was to be given if she became suddenly faint. I said that I would call again. I did call about eight in the evening. I found a very great apparent improvement in all the symptoms: the pulse in particular was much better, being less rapid, as well as stronger and firmer. I was told that there had been no recent purging, and almost none at all since my pre vious visit. The vomiting had not returned, in conse quence of which the residue of the creasote mixture had rot been given. All the pills had been taken as I pre scribed. The last was taken a little after six, I was told. The liniment and fomentations bad been employed as I directed. All my instructions had been fully carried out. I stated to the family that I was happy to leave her so much better. Deceased asked if she might have more of the little pills. I said no; they are not required. As the pain was not entirely removed, I said that part of the !ieiment, with the fomentations, might again be used. I said that I did not see scope for any other medicine than effervescing draughts, should the thirst be urgent; and wine, if required, for faintness. I was told that she had sat up in bed and taken tea with relish, and also a little toast. I thought more favourably of her case than I had lone formerly; but I was still in great anxiety about her. I said so to my assistant. Thinking it not impro bable that I might be called to her during the night, I mentioned her state to Mrs. Cormack, who was not well, and might have been alarmed bad I been called away to a distance during the night. Mr. Dallett's house is near to mine. I did not anticipate such a change as took place. I was called between four and five in the morning, just at the conclusion of the thunder-storm. I went without delay. I found the deceased in a state of great prostration, apparently listless, and drowsy. The pulse was hardly perceptible at the wrist: the haads were cold ; the extretaities of the fingers were blue ; and the lips were livid. I administered about a tablespoonful of brandy, and three or four glasses of wine. I asked if she had been alarmed by the thunder; and was told that she did not seem to have heard it. I examined the pupils; they were much contracted. I endeavoured to converse with her, and was enabled in some degree to do so after she had wine. I at first thought that she was in a state of collapse, which would terminate in death. The good effect of the wine suggested hope. I asked how much of the liniment had been used, and was shown the bottle, which might contain one or two teaspoonfuls out of the twelve. Knowing the extreme sensibility of the Dallett family to medicine of every description, it occurred to me, as just possible, that the stupor and collapse might have arisen from absorption of the opium of the liniment. I had never heard of so small a quantity of laudanum, when so applied, producing such an effect. I thought it my duty, under all th e circumstances, to hazard the impu tation of having used improper and dangerous medicine as the only thing which gave the deceased a chance of life, was to take this view of the case, and act on it. I used every e x er ti on t o rouse h er , by sinapisms, hot water and mustard to the feet, &c. I now treated the symptoms exactly as I wotild have treated narcotism from opium. I on ly con j ec tured that it might be nar cotism from opium. I explained my treatment might to the family, as the exertions to rou se the deceased otherwise have appeared e xtraordinary. No improve ment showed itself:. I desired my as s i s tant, attendance with me, to call in Dr. Wane who was in and Mr. Shilito. When Dr. Wane came, I entrusted the case toliimflor a few minutes, as I was ex hausted, and I went to lr. Shilito's house. He kindly came back with me keine diately to Mr. Dallett's. Both gentlemen th e n co operated with me in pursuing the same line of treat ment, until death took place. Just before Dr. Wane arrived, I gave twenty grains of sulphate of zinc ; it did not act, and he suggested a repetition of the dose, and tickling the fauces. We used the nineties with reference to the symptoms ; and not with reference to m y prescriptions. We all co-operated in using the same treatment, till deceased expired between eight and nine A. 31. Oa Wednesday morning, ab ou t twenty-three hours from the time et which I was first called in. Everything which I did was done with the view of sav ing the patient's life. The object or my treatment was to prevent death. The treatment was adopted according to the best of my judgment. Cross-examined by a Juror—l would, in similar cir cumstances, adopt similar treatment. I do not regret my treatment. I think my treatment throughout was judicious. Opium is the main remedy on which medical men rely in certa i n forms of abdominal inflammatory disease. There is a great tolerance of opium in such ears. I consider my dose of morphia an extremely minute dose. I also consider the quantity of opium in the pills very small. The three pills only contained half a grain, so that if the morphia taken be estimated as half a grain of opium, the deceased only had one grain internally from me. She bad only two teaspao?iui sof :audanum applied externally. I think my exhibition or Pinn 3 , by me, in this case, very cautious. By the CoaoNen— Wieit was the cause of death ?

I resigned this on being appointed to the Infirmary. My meijk were in Edinburgh, and also abroad. .1 have' i.'ad very extensive opportunities of seeing and treating fe ver cases. Edinburgh is much subject to fever epidemics. I wrote an .account of the epidemic which prevailed in 1843. I tren ted deceased according to the best of my skill, as derived from my experience of fever. It is still toy opinion that my first view of the case was correct--that when I first saw deceased she had been for some days labouring under fever. In additi on to the symptorait which. I formerly stated, I was also guided to Ous opi nion by the peculiar state or expression of the countenance, which though it cannot well be described, is familiar to all medical men who have had mugh to do with fever. The facts which I have now and formerly sta,*,ed, led me to consider the case as one of fever, and to ultimate that opinion to the family. I was present at tt. , e post mortem examination, and I think what I tlon saw confirms the correctness of my opinion as to the' natu.re of the disease. (Witness, with permission of the , w i o o n r s ic l on ia t at e e P b r e a e c n t i c d e e s o c f r Al i b i e n d i Li n ( Court, re a d t h e following, extract from Dr. Watson's t e h )li r th4;cNkeonw in t g h , e r e a d l Li r e e r a s 1, - tumefaction, an d ulceration orgslo ugh ing of the glands of Peyer, and also of the solitary —ar e 7-are so COMM= in fever, particularly in some epidemics,rY to 'fists are of opinion that fe ver that many patho s essentially infl anima tion of these glands and nothin this is on error."

Emme Pei), servant of Mr. Dallett—l went to Ds: Cormack's dispensary to f. tch medicine, and received two bottles from his assistant, which I gave in the same. state as I receive :1 them to Miss Maria Dallett. I sub .equentiy received another bottle, and afterwards three pills, which I saw 'the assis:ant make up. The label on the pills was one to be taken every night, but as he told me one was to he taken every hour. I re turned to him with the pills, and he changed the label according to his verbal directions. Henry Hicks, dispensing assistant to Dr. Cormack--. I was in practice prior to the Act of 1815 as a surgeon.. (Witness then produced the prescriptions, which were int Dr. Cormack's handwriting, and pozitively declared that: he had dispensed everything with the areatest accuracy.) I am fifty. four years of age, and nearly thirty-five yeara practising. Daniel Wane, M.D.—I reside at Putney. On Wed nesday, the 7th instant, was called in to Mr. Dallett's a ittle before seven o'clock in the morning. I found Miss Dallett (the deceased) sitting on a chair in a state of stupor. Dr. Cormack tuld me that she was probably la muring under narcotism; that the quantity of medicine that had been administered was very small to produce !uch an effect. I co-operated with him in his reatment on his representations and suggested act additioLal emetic of tw, try grains of sulphate of zinc, having been informed that a similar one had been. Lrevien,ly administered. Neither of these emetics• .00k effect. From what I was told, I conceived the' treatment to be the best that could be adopted. The: symptoms were such as might have arisen from an ad ministration of opium. Tnere was a large syncopisna, a mustard application to the abdomen, and every means. was adopted to rouse her. Strong coffee was given to her ; she was loudly spoken to, and moved about the room. Every other means was adopted to reuse her. Dr. Cormack stated that very little opium had been ad ministered internally, and that the symptoms had prin cipally been occasioned, as he supposed, by the external application. After the death, Dr. Cormack spoke of cholera. I have conducted the post mortem examination in the prosence of Mr. Shillito, Dr. Cormack, Dr. Wil 'is, Dr. Shillitto, Mr. Bushell, Mr. Thompson, and Mr. Farmer, and the nurse. The witness hero handed in the post mortem examina tion, signed by the different medical gentlemen who at tended, as follows: POST MORTEN EXAMINATION MADE JULY 10TH. There was nothing remarkable in the external ap pearance. IIEAD.—The vessels of dura, mater turgid, with free -ffusi.n of blood when cut. Very great congestion of the vessels of the pia mater, and very slight sub arach noid effusion. Consistence of the brain tolerably firm. . Less than usual quantity of fluid in the lateral ventricles, and this effoiion was bloody. Choroid plexus and sur face of ventricles congested. Tho base of the brain was next examined. General congestion of the vessels. The encephalon was carefully examined in every part, and presented no further appearance of disease. Cxesr.—On opening the left cavity of the chest about two ounces of bloody serum was found ; none in right cavity. General adhesion of the pleura pulmonalis and pleura costalis of right side, of old standing. Cadaveric congestion of posterior part of both lungs. Very little serum in pericardium, which appeared healthy. ABDOMEN.—General distention of the intestines with -as. The small intestines in various parts were of a I bright and blotched a pp earance, w hi c h •- • )eo.ra' tug tr" . "ly7lTuseti, ymph. The intestine n one part was coated with coagulable lymph. A small quantity of turbid bloody fluid was found in the lower part of the abdomitial caviiy. The redness of the small intestines was more remarkable towards the lower por tions. On slitting open the small intestines, a very marked congested red state was found, the result or evi dence of inflammation. The glands of Brunner and of Reyer were remarked of unusual distinctness and size. this unnatural state increased as the great intestine was approached, so that the mucous membrane of the small intestine at this point appeared thickened for ten or twelve inches. The same portion of the small intestine was the seat of several distinct ulcerations. The mucous membrane of the ileo-cmcal valve was much thickened and redened. The mucous membrane of the large intes tines was congested ; the peritoneal coat of the intestines was natural. The stomadh was externally of a redish colour ; internally of the same hue. This colour de pended upon congestion of the vessels, and staining of the mucous membrane. From the appearance above :described I am of opinion that the cause of death ark ,se from peritonitis and in flammation and ulceration of the mucous membrane of the bowels and congestion of the brain; these were most probably occasioned by fever.—(The Coroner here read the evidence of Dr. Cormack, in reference to the whole case.) Under the condition of peritonitis and infiam• mation of the bowels, the use of opium is most judi cious. It is a general mode of treatment in sueh nesse. There was certainly not more than a proper quantity or opium used. lam satisfied, from the facts of the case, that the death was not, in any manner, occasioned by the opium. Ido not conceive that the liniment produced the stupor. I think the treatment was judicious, and such as a skilful person, with an adequate knowledge of his profession, would adopt. It was not a rash treat ment ; it was a cautious exhibition of opium. In his statement, Dr. Cormack said he believed it to be a case of fever, and the appearances have corroborated that opinion. I think the opiate treatment undoubtedly judicious in that state of abdominal affection. I think the congestion of the brain was an associated condition with the abdominal inflammation. I should not have looked for inflammation of the brain more than conges tion. I have no doubt that the depression was not pro duced by the opium, but by the disease. lam perfectly satisfied that the death was nat ura l, an d occas i one d b y the causes I have before mentioned. Charles Shillito, jun.—l am a surgeon, residing at Putney.—l joined in the post-mortem examination, and from all the circumstances, I am of opinion that the cause of death was peritonitis and inflammation of the mucous membrane of the bowels. I think the conges tion of the brain was not occasioned by the opium; the quantity of opium in every way would not have caused death. lam satisfied that it was wholly a natural death, and I think the views of Dr. Cormack as to its being occasioned by " fever," are correct. I agree with Dr. ' Wane in his opinions. And I think " that the treatment was judicious, skilful, and cautious, and anch as a gentle. man, with an adequate knowledge of his profession, would have adopted." (At this stage of the proceedings several of the jury expressed themselves perfectly satisfied ; but, at Dr. Cormack's request, Dr. Willis, of Barnes, was also exa mined.) cliscreetlqinion Robert Willis, Al D.—l attended th e post morteet an fully agree with Dr. W a ne the cause of the death. In my s ex h a ii m ii i to nat as ion to , the opium was most judiciously . an d think that when Dr. Cormack said the : el eoev Y ne r a p u y n r : o de ud d nu .M dcer . . afforded the only chances she had o f use of o p ium the opiniork that the stupor might have d by the effects, I think the " rousing" was judicious, and I am convinced that it had no injurious effect on the young lady.
