The flames, when first discove re d, were r ag i ng amongs t a quan tity o f s h av i ngs and unfinished work in the first floor, and very speedily they brok e t h rough the - l windows, and for some time th e destructi on o f t h e entirebuilding appeared certai n . With ' the aid of bu c k ets of water the police and str angers suc • ceeded in getti ng t h e flames subdued. Mr. Braidwood, in reporting ` the fire to t h e insurance offices, returns th e origin as " Doubtful." THE SCIENCE or SWINDLING. — . M. P dramatic ' ett t o e r author and journalist, has lately gone to the a country reside, leaving a lady in his house to receive lis letters, and, if necessary, to reply for him. One morning a young s : man, respectably dressed in a blouse and cap, ca ll e d o her, and stated that M. P— had been arrested with seve ral other opposition writers, but that a friend of his could get him out of prison on payment of 500 francs. He wished her to furnish the sum in question, as he had not the money himself. The lady considered the whole store as very improbable, but still, not liking to fail , if her - services were really of use, she took a bank-note for 5001. from his secretary, and accompanied the messenger. When she arrived at the residence of M. P—'s friend, she found that the messenger had disappeared. On in quiry, she was informed that M. P—, far from being arrested, was quietly in the country. Meanwhile the Pretended messenger had gone back to the house where the lady lived, and addressing the servant girl, said that " the sum of 500 f. was not enough, that I,ooof. were required, and hermistress had sent him f o r the other 500 f." The girl, not l:.ey suspecting anythi ng , o p ene d th e secretary, in which th e had b een l e f t , an d ta ki ng out a note for the sum required, went after driving a b ou t near l y went with th e man .

Ri7SSIA AND THE CORN TRADE. —The Russian Government has giv en orders to the great iron -found ry at Seraing for the co nstruction of steam-e ngines for the Y navy, w hi c h are now conveyed by steamers to St. Peters , Belgian, Dutch and Germ an burgh, and a number o , ship-builders have been eng a g ed. This step of the Rus sian Government is one of high importance to commerce. Steamers are to be constructed for the Wolga, which traverses Russia from north to south, and flows into the Caspi'an Sea, and by the Sus Canal is con nected with the Lake o f L a d oga and the Gulf of Finland. By the na vigati •-•*3 of the Wolga by steamers, the two seas will be tonne i e eted. a thi ng wh i ch was f ormer ly thought imprac ilia will e na bl e R uss i a t o bring her corn and v her Liu m_hiric_, e able t; . eaber fr om t h e i n l an d p ro vinces to the it, ti., steam navigati on is not to be confined to the Wolgul but 1 Dnieper:o, and thest.o ...xtend to th e D on , th e D u na, the Great t es ,i a, vies Bag. . likrania, Tauris, Besarabia, will in time t Russ-2a, and the East Sea provinces corn market exercisethan °, gel.l-': influence on the European Many bhouAands sterling America a: the present moment. but that is nothing to w ; l i a o t w find :heir way into Russia, hence.

By the JUDGE—Was not an eccoucheur, but spoke froze experience and study. The regular action of the brai:l re with. tass se-gel ae ac: i,.,„ ;..e tOe canction3. Wyider, sonstoble, was csillsd, Rad said he had known the prisoner for twe've months. Two letters were then handed in, the first dated Bth March, enclosing the prisoner 21., and trusting that she would not make any further call upon the writer, and the other from a person saying that ho was too poor to help her, and advised her to come to Brighton. He said he had pawned his watch, and sold his wife's counterpane. Mr. CLARKSON then proceeded to address the jury on behalf of the prisoner. He said he should lay evidence before them to show that at the time the prisoner com mitted the offence imputed to her she was in an irre sponsible state of mind, although he :admitted that it would not show that she was not a participator in or an accessory to the murder. He complained that new witnesses were brought forward, of whom neither him self or his Learned Friend had ever heard of before, and with whom they were totally unprepared to grapple. What was the value of the Act of Parliament which stated that depositions should be taken in the presence of the prisoner, that they should be sworn in his presence, and that he should have a copy of them when he sought them, if fresh witnesses were to be brought forward to give testimony which the accused could not rebut P Let him remind thorn that the trial of the unfortunate woman at the bar was postponed until the present session on an affidavit which stated that the parties who made it, believed that the unfortunate woman was insane. The woman, Smallbone, of whom they had heard no thing until to-day, stated that the prisoner was seen by her, at the doar of the room, early in the evening of the Tuesday ; but she had been presented, without affording the prisoner an opportunity of rebutting her evidence, and, possibly, of showing that she was elsewhere. Who would believe that one of the protectors of their liberties had been the assailant of two women, that he had lived with the woman in the way stated f He had been put into the box merely for the purpose of undergoing the ceremony of saying who lie was, and possibly by his appearance indicating that he had no share in the murder. Could any one put their finger on any part of the evi dence, and say that the prisoner committed the murder? The evidence of the witness Smallbone assumed that the murder was committed at the time the door was half opened. What, committed in the light of day, and in a house full of lodgers? It was improbable. Then he dismissed the evidence with respect to the prisoner's wish to get to Brighton, by saying that she had been proved to have entertained the notion since the preceding Christmas. There was no motive for the act—the gain was nothing. He (Mr. Clarkson) confidently submitted that the dreadful charge of having committed wilful and deliberate murder was not proved against the prisoner in so clear a manner as they could return a verdict which would consign her to an ignominious death.

She was always considered in the family to be a kind and humane person. Jane Rich, the prisoner's sister, who was much af fected while giving her evidence, was next examined. She said that the prisoner was 33 years old. She was always labouring under lowness of spirits, and would fre quently sit down and cry for half an hour together.

Mr. Sergeant Murphy again sat in the grand jury room to-d3y, to assist in disposing of the criminal eases. CROWN COURT.—(l3efore the LORD CHIEF BARON.) Mary Squire (21), a married woman, stood charge with having, at Manchester, feloniously and of her malice aforethought, killed and murdered Joseph Squire, her infant child. Mr. Monk appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. J. Pollock defended the prisoner. It appeared from the evidence of Thomas Crogate and other witnesses, that the prisoner, who lived in Back garden-street, in Manchester, and who was supposed not to have been in a sound state of wind when she com mitted the act, had been seen to approach the window of the first floor of the house in which she dwelt, and to cast the child, which was but two years of age, into the street before the house. She immediately afterwards got out of the window herself, which was not a great height from the ground, feet foremost, and in that way slipped down into the street. The death of the child was at tributed to the injuries it sustained in being thus thrown from the window. The prisoner had previously be trayed symptoms of insanity, and had on the same day observed to her husband that she had "made the child's frock very pretty," by tearing up the gar ment. She had been ill of a fever some time before, and the fever produced delirium; and that fact was at tested by two young medical gentlemen, Mr. King and Mr. Brodie. The prisoner, under these circumstances, was Ac quitted, on the ground that at the time when she killed the child she was not so possessed of her reasoning facul ties as to make her a responsible person. Mr. PoLLocs then suggested to the Learned Judge the propriety of obtaining from the jury their opinion as to the present state of the prisoner's mind, with the view of furthering the object of any application which might hereafter be made in her behalf. His LORDSHIP did not see how that question could now be put to the jury. Any further facts that it might be necessary to adduce with such a view might be laid before the Secretary of State in the form of affidavit. MARRIAGE IN A DISSENTERS' CHAPEL.- George Hawes (25) was charged with having, at Manchester, on the 7th of September last. feloniously married and taken to wife Martha Helsby, his former wife, Mary Chadwick, being then alive. Mr. Monk appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. J. Pollock for the defence. The facts usually established in a case of bigamy were proved, namely, that the prisoner had been married on the 19th of July, 1841, at Ashton under-Lyne, to Mary Chadwick; that she was still living ; and that sulme quently, on the 7th September last, he married Martha Helsby, at the Collegiate Church in Manchester. The former of these marriages, however, had been solemnized in a building at Ashton, called the Israelite Sanctuary, and according to the rites of a sect the mem bers of which were worshippers in that building. Two of the sect, Mr. James Brindley and Mr. John Stanley were called as witnesses, and the first of these, who is a grocer at Dukinfield, stated that Mary Chadwick was his step-daughter. Witness had been present at her marriage with the prisoner. The registrar of marriages, Mr. Whitehead, was present, and notice of the marriage had been duly given to him. (Mr. Monk observed to the Court thst:the place had been licensed under the Act of Parliament.) They lived together for ten months. The doctrine taught in the " Sanctuary" was that of the Trinity. Witness believed in the bible, " from back to back," from one end of the book to the other. Cross•examined—They called themselves " Israelites." Prisoner himself was not of that persuasion at the time of the marriage, though he did intend becoming one of the body to which witness belonged. He then attended no place of worship. Mr. P O LL OCK t oo k s everal objections on respective defects in the evidence, and referred to the statute touching Dissenters' marriages, 6 and 7 William IV., cap. 85, and especially to the 42d section of that Act, in which it is enacted, " That if any person shall knowingly intermarry in any place other than the church, chapel, registered office, or other place specified in the notice, &c., or with out due notice to the s uperintendent-registrar, or with out license, &c., or in the absence of a registrar, &c., that marriage shall be null and void." fie contended that it did not appear that there had been a lawful mar riage. Mr. Higginbottom, the superintendent registrar of the district, could only say that he had no doubt of having received notice of the marriage to take place within three months, and the notice, being in writing, ought to be produced. It was not here, but at the re gistrar's home. Section 7 of the Act required that there should be a certificate from the registrar of the fact that the requisite notice had been given to him. No such notice was produced, and it was necessary, n proving this charge, to show by the best evidence— namely, the certificate itself—that such certificate had been issued, because, otherwise, according to the terms of the 42d section, it would not appear but that this marriage was null and void in law. Mr. MONK submitted that it was not necessary to ad duce this documentary evidence. There was no doubt that the place of solemnization was one in which a mar riage might lawfully take place. It was not a question of law, but one of evidence, and this was a case in which applying the common-law rule, omnia prcesumuntur rite acta, the evidence of the public officer would dispense with the production of a aoeumant irgnina from himself. His Lordship retired for some minutes, apparently for the purpose of conferring with Mr. Ju s ti ce Wi g h tman upon the question. On his return, the Learned JUDGE said, that the point was one of importance, with reference to civil as well as criminal cases, and that it was one which ought to be reserved for future consideration. That, his Lordship thought, should be d one i n a manner to occasion as little inconvenience to the prisoner as pos sible; and if he were . convicted, the best way then would materialhot the prisoner, e P i srb es e:en be to permit the prisoner to be at large upon his own re cognizance to appear whenever . called on. Mr. POLLOCK was quite willing to assent to that course, and His LonnsruP . then . told the jury that he should leave it to them to decide simply, whether the two marriages had been duly proved in fact ; and if they should find in the affirmative, then the question of the legality of the first marriage, according . to the evidence given, would have to be determined elsewhere. V e rdict —Guilty, His LoRDsHIP directing that the prisoner should be wi f e and two infant children, at Manchester, was to discharged on entering into his own recognizance. Joseph Speed, aged 30, indicted for the wilful murders day ; but Ser g eant Wilkins, who ap pearedvetirrAl e e a n d n ce t : a s there was reason to suppose that for the prisoner, stated to the Court, that as there had as yet been no opportunity of adducing evidence for respecting the state of the prisoner's T e e time he a caseof thel e act wh wouldwhich justice thet this the iam4Priuediarrayetdshould be postponed. Hi s LORDSHIP concurred in the opinion of the Learned Sergeant, and, therefore, directed that the in dictment should stand respited until the next assizes. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. THE MARYLEBONE MURDER. Mary Ann Huns, aged thirty, was indicted for the wilful murder of Mary Stowell, on the 2nd of June last. The prisoner pleaded Not Guilty. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) On the resumption of the p rocee di ngs t h e unfortunate woman, when again placed at the bar, looked paler and more downcast. - - Mrs. — Cressell, wife of the butler of Sir Alexander Woodward, said she knew the prisoner at Brighton. Took up her abode at No. 42, Adam-street, about four months ago, and the acquaintance was renewed. Saw her frequently. She behaved like other people. Saw the prisoner about half.past eight on the night of the murder. She appeared wild and violent in her speech that night. Cross-examined--Always found prisoner humane, kind, and harmless. By the JUDGE—Was busy that night, and could not say that she looked at the prisoner's face. Mr. Crawford Bolt, surgeon, said he was called to see the body of the deceased at five o'clock in the morning of the 2d of June, and described the injuries she had received. The cord round her neck was loose enough to admit two or three hands within it. Noticed a wound on the left jaw, which must have been inflicted after death. The skin was red, hard, dry, and greasy. A blow during life would not cause redness. She had been dead eight hours at least. The deceased was dressed. There was no fire in the room. There was a wound over the orbit of the eye. Two wounds on the back of the neck and on the head appeared also to have been inflicted after death. The skull and brain were healthy. Six ribs were broken on one side and eight on the other. Found that the rings of the windpipe had been compressed and broken. Pressure upon the lungs, and the stoppage, in consequence, of the respiratory power was the cause of death. quite impossible that a ll cauCsreodssb-yexoanmeirnedmoti—.Thlotugwhats the injuries could b e the injuries could have been inflicted with a poker. Police -constable 124 was re-called, and said he saw the poker found, and that it was covered with blood and hair. Could not say that he noticed the hair until the next morning. Mr. Bolt was re-called, and positively asserted that the blows of a poker could not have caused the breaking of the ribs. The only way he could account for the injuries was, that the deceased was lying on her back, and that the person who inflicted the other injuries em- Played his or her arms in doing so. Perhaps one " bump," if it were v iolent, would have broken all the ribs. Judged the time the deceased had been dead from the rigidity of the muscles and from experience. Re - examined—The blow over the eye would no doubt cause insensibility in a person so old. By a juryman —It was quite !impossible that a fall could pr o d uce the fracture o f t h e r ibs. Mr. M‘Murdo, the surgeon to the gaol of Nee-gate, was next e xam i ne d—Th e prisoner had been under his charge s i nce June, and he had been desired to pay parti cular attention t o h er , w ith the view to ascertain the state of her mind, and had done so.

On Tuesday morning an inquest was held before the Coroner, at the Old Swan public-house, Long Niillgate, on the body of an elderly individual, about fifty-six or fifty-seven years of age, wlio was found dead in bed in a room in the house of John Lewis, lodginghouse-keeper. The circumstances connected with the melancholy affair are stated in the evidence produced before the Coroner. The first witness called was Mary Mullineux, servant to John Lewis, who said that on Friday night last the deceased came to their house. He was quite sober. He slept there all night, and on Satur day was up all the day. He slept again there on Satur day night. On Sunday morning witness went into the deceased's room, between ten and eleven o'clock, and asked him to get up, that she might make his bed. Deceased replied that he did not intend to rise at all during the day, on which she left him. In a little time after deceased asked for a pint of beer. About three in the afternoon she looked into deceased's room, and found him asleep. She did not see him again till about nine o'clock at night. When she went into the bed-room she found deceased quite dead. There was a bottle on the dressing-table, and a piece of rope beside it, suffi ciently long for any one to hang himself. She ran down stairs and alarmed her master, who at once went out for a doctor. The doctor said the deceased had been dead about an hour. On Saturday afternoon deceased wrote two letters. He asked for the post-office, and took away the letters. William Hughes, assistant to Mr. John G. Harrison, surgeon, who examined deceased, said that on the table there was a bottle , : marked on the outside " Laudanum, Poison." It would contain quite sufficient to poison de ceased. He considered that death had been caused by the taking of narcotic poison. Hawkley, the constable, confirmed the preceding evi dence. On searching the pockets of the deceased, he found a number of the London publication entitled the Family Herald, the first paper in which is, " The Story Teller; the Secret Poisoner," chap. 4, which, from its appearance, the deceased had evidently been reading. Up to this stage of the proceedings no evidence had been adduced by which the identity of the deceased could be established, an.l the jury were in the act of returning a verdict upcn him as " a person unknown," when Mr. Thomas Wright, of Manchester, entered. lie came in obedienco to a letter he had received from deceased, in which he informed him of the reasons of his rash act, namely, his dismissal as night watchman for having been found asleep on his post. The letter is signed " W. M. Kelly." Mr. Wright said the body viewed by the coroner and jury was that of William Kelly. By that morning's post he (witness) received the above letter, which was i❑ the deceased's own handwriting, and evidently written under great agitation of mind. Deceased had died under great distress of circumstances. He has left a widow and six children. He had been in the employ ment of the Manchester and Leeds Railway as an assistant storekeeper, but recently lost his situation, which, no doubt, had prayed un his mind and increased his distress. The jury returned a verdict, " That the deceased William Kelly died from laudanum, administered by himself while labouring under temporary insanity." The history of the latter days of the deceased is a very melancholy one. Although reduced so far as to occupy the humble situation of a railway menial, it is not more than fourteen years since he held a commission as cap tarn in the 7th Dragoon Guards. Captain Kelly retired at that period on half-pay, which he continued to enjoy for some years. It appears, however, that either from extravagance, the increasing expenditure of a large family, or both combined, he was compelled to sell his half pay about eight years ago, and ever since that pe riod his pecuniary condition ha% been progressively de teriorating, and his family, deprived of any source of re gular income, have suffered great privations, and been much beholden to the kindness and sympathy of friend, for the means of support. He had been about eight months in the service of the Leeds Company, for which he was mainly indebted to the exertions of a few old military friends. He was discharged for the reasons stated in his letter to Mr. Wright. This seems to have been regarded by him as the climax in his cat eer of mis fortune, and he formed the terrible resolution of cutting short his days of suffering and anguish by committing suicide. For the purpose of more surely and uninter ruptedly accomplishing his object, he left his family on Friday, and took up his abode in the house of a stranger. We understood that he actually wrote three letters on Saturday—one of them to his family; and it is remark able that, although he intimated his resolution to make away with himself, and requested that they would come and claim his remains, he omitted to give any address.— Manchester Examiner. IRELAND. DUBLIN, AUG. 18. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF A CLERGYMAN.—The Dublin Evening Post says—" It becomes our most painful duty to record the death of the Rev. Alexander Hoops, Rector of Glankeen, county Tipperary, which took place at his glebe, on Sunday, the 15th instant, under the most distressing. circumstances. A local cor respondent thus writes: —' But two hours after he re turned from efliciating in his church, labouring under strong mental derangement, he put an end to his life with et loadocl pistol, by his own hand. For some time his family observed that he was suffering under unusual depressir•n of spirits owing to the harrowing scenes of distress among the starving poor around him, in behalf of whom his wannest sympathies were called forth. Previous to the carrying out of the Government mea sures of relief, he was daily to be seen distributing with his own hands meal procured by private subscription, to the famishing multitudes around him. In minister ing to their wants the interests of his own family were almost disregarded. Subsequently the reverend gentleman filled the office of chairman of the relief committee. Advanced as he was in years, and possess ing au over-sensitive mind, its onerous duties proved too much for him. He was sinking beneath their weight until, by the advice of his friends, he resigned the office. But his mind was not thereby relieved from the intense pressure of anxiety. The gloom became settled, and his name may now be added to the long list of generous men who have fallen victims to their de votedness in the cause of our famishing poor, and who, in showing mercy to others, hare had no mercy on themselves. This sad event has thrown his own imme diate family, the poor of his parish, and the numerous circle of his friends into the deepest of" The Tipperary Vindicator says—" The Rev. Mr. Hoops committed the rash deed by placing a loaded pistol to his head, and literally blowing out his brains. An inquest was held by T. O'Meara, Esq., county coro ner, and a verdict according to the circumstance was returned." " Council Chamber, Dublin Castle, Aug. 16, 1847. Her Majesty, by her royal letters, having appointed the Right lion. Sir William Meredyth Somerville, Bsrt., to be ono of her Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council of Ireland, he this day in Council took the usual oaths and his place at the board accordingly." FIVE SHILLINGS FOR SAUCE. Two Scotch drovers came to Sheffield for the purpose of selling some cattle ; after disposing of which, they made their way to tho nearest neighbouring inn, to put up for the night. On their arrival, Donald, the elder of the two, addressed the landlord as follows :—" What hae ye got for sipper the night ? " The answer was, a leg of mutton, a couple of rabbits, and a fowl. " Weel, ye can fetch them up, as Sawney and I are gae hungry. We hae had a lang trudge o't the day." The supper being laid, they suited their actions to their words, for they picked the bones as cleans as sticks. The two drovers being shown to their sleeping apartments, which happen to adjoin that of the landlord, and separated only by a very light par tition, the following conversation took place, and was overheard by the host :—" Weel, Sawney, what d'ye think we'll hae to pay for the sipper ? " Weel, Donald, troth I dinna ken ; but we'll een jist reckont up. First and foremost, we had a cookie leekie (the fowl), that's tipehce ; than there's the twa Johnny Runaways (the two rabbits), that's tipence ; thaa there's the tipshanks (legs of mutton), that's tipence—exactly that jist makes saxpence. Weel, that's no out o' the way, Donald." Upon the reflection of which they sunk into the arms of Morpheus. By times in the morning they applied to the landlord for the price of the supper, upon which the host replied in the words overheard by him the previous night, Why, gentlemen, there's cockie leekie, that's tipence ; twa Johnny Runaways, that's ither tipence ; and tipshanks will be tipence, that jist makes saxpence." " Weel." "Bat then there's five shillings for sauce." " Gude quid us ! five shillings for sauce ! the deil tak you and your Nauee baith. Come awa, Sawney ; we hae had enough o' his sauce. We'll think twice afore we'll come hack to this cursed country to pay five shillings fur sauce!" A MARKET FOR TALENT.—Some time ago there alighted at Stortford an adventurer, whose only means of existence were his wits and four pence in his pocket. He forthwith determined upon enlightening our simple townsfolk, and with that object disbursed half his pro perty at the barber's, in order to make a clean appear ance before an audience in the Corn Exchange. He then held forth on the wonderful effects of ether on the human frame, and he so charmed his hearers that he was solicited to repeat his lecture. To this proposal he had no objection. He lectured again and again on ether, till the subject was as familiar as air to our townsmen. He now turned to other matters ; he took up painting and music, painted portraits exquisitely, and performed delightfully on every kind of musical instrument. His talents were appreciated ; he was taken by the hand by several of; what are termed, the influential inhabit. ants ; he was received at their tables, and in return for their patronage did his utmost to amuse them by his musical, pictorial, sleight-of-hand, and general abili ties. As time flew on, his circumstances improved ; as an artist he had got together a decent connexion, and as a lecturer he still shone forth, for he now discoursed of general subjects. One of these was " F un and Folly," in expatiating upon which he quite tickled his listeners. This " Admirable Crichton" had, however, two personal faults; his visage was too highly coloured, the result, some said, of experiments upon the compa rative exhilarating powers of strong liquids, and his whole appearance indicated that he had been for some time descending the hill of life. But, notwithstanding these defects, and notwithstanding the presence of a lady passing as his wife, he managed to wheedle him self into the favour of a respectable young female in the town, and as an illustration of his " Fun and Folly" lecture, and as a dashing fi nale to his career in Stort ford, he persuaded her to an elopement. All are happy to hear, however, that the old adventurer was followed, and the young woman rescued from the misery that lay before her.—Herts County Press.

Mary Richardson said she had known the prisoner for 17 or 18 years. She always considered her a very good, hard-working girl. The prisoner stayed at her h Juse for two mantas, and during that period she had a very bad fit, and when she came to a little she looked very wild, and witness kept away from her. Cross-examined—lt was eight years ago it happened. Miss Richardson, daughter of the last witness, also spoke to seeing the prisoner in a fit while she was stay ing at her mother's house. Charlotte Jennings, another fellow•servant of the pri soner's 13 years ago, said that while in the service she was subject to fainting fits, and she frequently observed her to be very low-spirited. The prisoner had since lodged with her on two or three occasions when she was out of place, and her spirits always appeared to be very much d:•pressed, and she frequently found her crying. The prisoner was one of the most humane, kind crea tures she ever know. Sarah Robinson said the prisoner lived in her house from July to December, 1846. She had very bad health, and always appeared in low spirits, and she frequently saw her crying without any apparent cause. She once saw her in an hysteric fit, and she struggled and was very violent, and required three men to hold her. She appeared to be of a particularly kind and humane dis position. Emma Bayley said she remembered the prisoner coming into the service of Mrs. Smythe Wyndham, in which she was engaged in March last, and very soon after that period she had a violent fit, and witness found her on the floor quite insensible, and after a time she became so violent, it required two men to hold her. She continued in this state for a considerable time, and two or three days after she recovered there was a peculiarly wild expression in her eyes. The prisoner only re remained in the service for eight and twenty days. and after she had left the service she came back for her clothes, and while she was standing in the servants' room the prisoner had another fit. She saw the pri soner again about three weeks afterwards, and she then had the same wild appearance that she presented after the preceding fits. Cross-examined—The deceased used to come to the house, and was an object of charity. After the prisoner left the service she understood that she was going to stay with the old woman for a night or two. Some other servants in the establishment of Mrs. Wyndham gave similar testimony, and they all deposed to the violence of the prisoner while suffering under the fit. All these witnesses were sent to give their testi• mony as to what occurred by order of their master and mistress. Mr. W. Verrall, surgeon to the Brighton Lying-in Institution, proved that he attended the brother of the prisoner upon two occasions for delirium. The witness then said that his experience in the diseases of women induced him to believe that under peculiar diseases, to which they were subject, the effect would ultimately be to injure the brain. _ _ M. Richard Rugg, surgeon to the Brighton Infirmary, gave similar testimony. He expressed an opi n i o n that during a paroxysm occasioned in a female from the cir cumstance referred to, she would be in such a state of mind as not to be aware what she was doing ; and, from his own knowledge, he wai aware that when in such a state a woman would feel the greatest hatred towards those with whom she had before been the most friendly, Mr. BALLANTINE said this was the case for the pri • soner. Dr. Sutherland was then called by Mr. BODKIN.—IIe said, I am a pysieian, and have had considerable prac tice in disorders of the mind. I was directed to be pre sent to-day by the solicitor to the Treasury, and I have attended to the whole of the evidence, particularly that of the witnesses for the prisoner, and assuming; all the facts that have been stated to be literally true, they do not in my opinion indicate any unsoundness of mind in the prisoner, in any degree whatever. Cross-examined—My opinion would be more satis factory, of course, if I had had an opportunity of per sonally examining the prisoner. I have known cases of women becoming quite insane from the cause suggested, and where a woman, naturally of a humane and peace able diuposition, has suddenly become quite ferocious. By Mr. BODKIN—I cannot see any circumstance in this case to induce me to believe that the brain of the prisoner is in any way injured. Mr. Bopais—Did you ever hear of a case where a woman had a violent attack of this description at nine o'clock at night, for her to be perfectly cool and col lected, and nut show any traa, of that attack, in the following morning at four o'clock ? Dr. Sutherland—l never did hear of such a case. Mr. BODKIN then replied, in a most calm and tem perate address, upon the whole case. The Learned JUDGE commenced summing up the case at ten o'clock at night. He went carefully through the whole of the evidence, and said that the questions the jury had to decide were—first, whether the prisoner was the person who caused the death of the deceased, and if so, whether at the time the act was committed she was iu such a state of mind as to render her account able for her act. , The jury retired tft twenty minutes to twelve o'clock. At five mint tea past they returned into court and de livered their verdict, finding the prisoner Guilty, but strongly recommending her to mercy on account of her previous good character. The pri ;otter was then asked, in the usual form, whether she had anything to urge why sentence of death should not be passed ? and Mr. Harker, the chief usher, made the titan al proclamation. Mr. Jus , ice ERLE put on the black cap, and after stating that the crime of the prisoner was so dreadful that he cou!*l not hold out the slightest hope of a com mutation of Ithe sentence, passed the sentence of death in the usual form. The prist.ner was then asked whether she had any thing to say in arrest of judgment ? She replied, " Nothing.'" Mr. BALL, NTINE said the proceeding was a novel one, and he hard ty knew the proper course to be adopted with regard; to the circumstance of the prisoner being pregnant. Mr. Jwitke ERLE said that circumstance would be ,aken into et .nsideration by the proper authorities. The pri io ner was then removed from the bar. The trial, lasted more than fourteen hours. THE Gn .AT FIRE AT MAIDENREAD. — On Tues day evening, at eight ticlock, a considerable body of fire remained am; dst the immense heap of ruins. The whole of the mills and private residences, together with the brewery, are now levelled with the ground. The mill was well stet •ed with corn, and the brewery adjoining was filled wif j malt, hops, &c. The property destroyed was of great value, but we regret to state that the whole of the instim .races on the 'same will not exceed 8,000/. It is needless ..to state that that sum will fall short of the loss sustained. The stock, which was most extensive, was insured fc rcn ly 1,970/. Unfortunately several persons who had grain at the mill waiting to be ground will be serious lo iers by the calamity. An investigation was instituted on. Tuesday, to learn, if possible, how the disaster 1 ,appe% led, but without success. 3,25 2,752 7,013 8,091 12,323 31,565 25,383 17,660 9,495 12,239 59,34 77,150 16,784 13,760 18,356 45,357 5,643 22,486 13,669 35,615 5,024 4,626 9,176 14,665 12,772 17,305 12,e30 4,304 30,725 15,005 23.680 6,260 34,259 3,890 17,750 12,871 1,990 19,300 9,260 5,837 6,465 16,378 13,660 27,689 18,394 22,920 2,338 25,290 12,84 8,579 10,007 9,920 12,303 9,639 14,195 22,835 9,683 25,960 3,648 46,29 12,45 25,037 5,878 15,822 31,915 47,1
