CITY, Two o'CLocit. Letters from Liverpool state that the Cottcn market on Saturday closed rather firmer, at full prices. The sales were 9,000 bales, 1,500 of which were taken for export-. The business transacted in the Railway Share Market was moderate, but prices were firm. The general state of trade in the manufacturing districts is described in the letters received this morning as being satisfactory, but there is cer tainly not so much activity as could be desired. Before business assumes its usual dimensions a decline in the charge for accommodation must take place. In Manchester there is a good demand for Calcutta, and also for Russia. The alteration in the tariff of the latter country is likely to stimulate trade. The woollen cloth trade of Leeds continues toler ably active; and the shipping houses are busily en gaged. The London wool sales commence on the 16th inst., and until then manufacturers will, no doubt, exhibit increased caution. It is expected that about 62,000 bales will be offered. The 4th of the month is now passed and the numerous engagements which then became due in the commercial world, have been discharged in a most satisfactory manner, proving that the trade of the country, however depressed by the obstacles always imposed by dear money, continues in a sound condition, although perhaps not so profitable in all respects as could be wished. Judging from the late returns issued by the Board of Trade, the commerce of the United kingdom was never so gigantic in its dimen sions as at the present moment, but the over stocked markets in Australia, and the dulness of business in the - United. States, India, and South America rather tend to show that our transactions are somewhat excessive. There is nevertheless a comparative absence of failures, and this is a healthy sign. Occasionally a suspension of ra ther a serious character is announced, but the investigations of the accounts generally show that the disaster has arisen from injudicious trading or old losses and liabilities. Now that the commercial bills arrived at maturity on Saturday have been liquidated, there is an impression that the demand for accommodation will relax, and as the payment of the dividends on Wednesday next will increase the supply of capital in the general market, many persons anticipate an early decline in the value of money. This view is strengthened by the fact that first class houses, home and foreign, are unable to get their bills discounted at a fraction below the Bank terms, and many instances are cited where 51 per cent. only has been charged. Since the departure of the Colombia, or rather Since the arrangements for remittances by that vessel, were completed, there has been a very dull Market for silver, and until further advices are re ceived from India it is not expected that much business will be transacted. Judging from present indications, it is very probable that the shipments henceforth will be much smaller than for a long time past. Last week the imports of the precious metals re presented a total of about of 1,140,0001., and the exports, as far as they can be ascertained, were nearly 1,000,0001. There was more activity in the general business of the port of London last week. At the Custom Rouse 248 vessels were reported from Foreign ports, 3 from Ireland, and 149 colliers. The en tries outwards comprised 127, and the clearances 108 vessels, besides 7 which left in ballast. The market for Public Securities is rather feeble, but the variation is not important, and business continues very dull. A desire generally prevails to await further advices from India before extending speculative engagements, as it is very probable that they will be of an unfavourable nature. A sanguine view is taken of monetary affairs, but in the face of unfavourable political news any important rise could be scarcely anticipated. Prices are about per cent. lower than on Saturday, and if some of the speculators having bill accounts open should close them, increased depression will no doubt prevail. Consols have been 92-. t for Wednesday, 92-i 93 for August. and 924 for money, as special transfer can now be effected. The New 3 per Cents. are 928 and the Reduced 92 5 4 Bank Stock is 214, and India Stock 215. Exchequer Bills are firmer, viz.) 3s. discount. to par. Business in the Foreign Market is exceedingly inactive. Turkish 6 per Cents. have been 96 to 96k, and the present price is 96; I, being firmer. Mexican Bonds are 221, Dutch 4 per Cents. 98, and Belgian 41 per Cents. 962. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6 z ; Mexican, 22/ s ; Peruvian 41 per Cents., 80 82; ditto 3 per Cents., 54 56 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 441 45 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 109 111 ; ditto 41 per Cents., latf 9 e B rr ; ed, SPa2nsl-sha per Cents., 40 40i ; ditto New ditto Certificates, 61 ; ditto Passive, 52 The Railw ay Sh are Mar k et h as s h own i ncrease d heaviness, and the littl e b u siness transacted exhi bited_ a decline upon former values. Caledonian, Eastern Counties Great Northern, Lancashire and Yorkshire, South-Western, and Midland are each about ss. lower ; and Great Western, 10s. ; South- Eastern and South Wales, however, are rather firmer, the former have improved 55., and the latter 10s. An active business has been done in the Canadian lines. Grand Trunk have improved 11., and Great Western are a shade firmer. The French lines are dull. Northern of France have declined 15s. East Indian have been buoyant, and have improved 11. Great Luxem bourg are firm. Mining shares are very quiet at about former values. For Joint Stock Bank Shares there is a moderate inquiry, but prices show very little variation. London and County, Ottoman Bank, and Union of Australia, realise full values. The Miscellaneous Shares, although dull, are at firmer rates. Crystal Palace have advanced about Ss., and Royal Mail Steam, 11. to 21. BRITISH FUNDs THIS DAY AT ONE :'CLOCK (From the Official List.)

MABXET .NEWS.--(This Day.) LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) Olosine Prices Saturday. Business this day COURT OF BAMKRUPTCY. CORN EXCHANGE. Most of the country markets held on Saturday were mo derately supplied with wheat, in which about an average business was doing at barely stationary prices. Barley was in steady request, at full quotations. Oats, beans, and peas were very firm, but flour met a dull inquiry. Most of the Continental markets come rather heavy for wheat. In prices, however, very little change has taken place. Spring corn has sold at full quotations. Dull ac counts continue to reach us from the United States. Very limited supplies of English produce reached us last week. Tho imports from abroad were 10,075 quarters of wheat, 8,512 barley, 27,781 oats, 1,870 linseed, i,478 rapeseed, 245 sundry seeds, 1,931 sacks, and 2,250 barrels of flour. Fresh up to-day, from Essex, Kent, &c., the arrivals of English wheat, coastwise and by land carriage, were on a very limited scale ; hence, and more especially as a good clearance of the stands was effected on Friday, the show of samples of both red and white was small. The trade, however—owing to the favourable accounts at hand in re ference to the crops- .was in a most inactive state, and, in some instances, prices ruled is. per quarter lower than on Monday last. We were fairly supplied with nearly all foreign wheats, fresh as well as ex-granarv. The firmness of holders checked the demand, which ruled exceedingly heavy, and so little business was passing that prices were nominally the same as on Monday last. Floating cargoes of grain were dull, but not cheaper. The show of barley was very limited, and the trade ruled firm at very full prices. Malt moved off slowly, yet the quotations were sup ported. There was a good supply of oats on offer, yet the oat trade ruled firm, at very full prices. Beans were in short supply and good request, at is per quarter more money. • For peas we had a good sale, at an advance of is. per quarter. The flour trade was very dull, and country marks were offering on rather lower terms. - - - - (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN RE JOHN VICKERS, This bankrupt had carried on business in Eldon-road, Kensington ; Cross-lane, St. Mary-at• Hill ; and High street, Southwark, as a wine and spirit merchant, and now came up to pass his last examination. The debts are set down at 1,1251. ; assets—good debts, 7601.; the profits were set down at 21. 3s. Si. ; expenses nearly 2,0001., of which nearly 8001. were estirnited. Mr. Bickley, for the assignees, was not satisfied with the accounts, which differed from those filed by bank• rupt in the Insolvent Court. Mr. Hart, for the official assignee, said they differed in form, but he could trace the items. He did not think that any benefit would arise from an adjournment. The bankrupt then passed, all questions as•to conduct to be reserved for the certificate tneeting. ... CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

For the time of year a full average supply of beasts came to band from our own grazing districts, in fair condition. Although the attendance of buyers was tolerably numer ous, the beef trade ruled far from active. Compared with Monday last, however, very little change took place in the quotations. We may observe that the general top figure for beef did not exceed 4s 6d per 81b. A few very superior lots went at 4s 8d per 81b. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we receive.] 1,6C0 Scots and shorthorns : from Lincolnshire and Leicestershire 500 shorthorns, fry other parts of England 303 of various breeds, and from Scotland 12 Scots. No beasts reached us from Ireland. We had an increased supply of sheep in the market ; but its general quality was by no means first-rate. The best Down's and half-breds were in steady request, at Friday's improvement in value of 2d per 81b.

FOURTH DAY. —FRIDAY. The evidence f)r the prosecution was resumed to-day by the examination of William Hart and Peter Taylor Young, Joint Procurators Fiscal for the lower ward of Lanarkshire. Their evidence chiefly related to the mode of recovering and at testing the documents in• the repositories of the de ceased, also to the preparation of the case and the communication of copies of the documents to the prisoner's agents. Andrew Murray, jun., writer to the Signet, proved the accuracy of the print of the portion of the correspondence founded on by the Crown, aid in the hands of counsel on both sides. Row'And Hill M‘Donald, controller of sorting department, post-office, Glasgow, was called to identify the post-marks on numerous envelopes. Robert Monteith and Robert Sinclair, packers, in the employment of Huggins and Co., deposed that they had addressed letters for L'Angelier to " Miss C. Hagart," both at India-street, where the family resided before Whitsunday, 1856, at the country house at Row, and latterly at 7, Blyths wood-quarn. L'Angefier did not wish his hand writing to be known. • . . . Janet M`Donald, postmistress at Row, remem bered letters coming to the post-office at Row in 1855 a•id 1856, addre, , sed to " Miss Bruce ; to be called for," and which one of Mr. Smith's servants called for. Did not know of any person named Miss Bruce. Catherine M'Donald, Bridge of Allan, deposed that the family had resided in her house there from the 6th to the 17th of March. Dr. Robert Telfer Corhet—l assisted in the exa mina' ion of the body of M. L'A.ngelier on the 31st of March, and concurred in the report then made. The conclusion we came to was that deceased had died from the effects of irritant poison. The mor bid appearance were of two kinds—one showing the recent and immediate action of irritant poison, and the other effects of some antecedent adminis tration. The ulcers on the duodenum were such as I think an irritant poison administered a month before might have produced. I think the inflam matory action and ulceration were indicative of the administration of arsenic. Jaundice is not a com mon, but an occasional sympton of irritant poison. Extreme thirst is one of the symptoms, and shows itself very early. That is not a symptom of British cholera in the earlier stages. A dose of arsenic generally shows itself in half an hour or an hour. Longer periods have been known, but they are un usual. The early appearance of the symptoms would depend more on the mode of administration and the state of the stomach than the quantity. It would operate more quickly, I think, if there had been repeated doses. I have read of cases of murder in which large doses have been administered. I cannot say I have heard of 80 grains, but I have read of cases in which the authors describe the doses as being large. Cross-examined—Twenty grains would certainly be a very large dose. It would be a large dose to be administered, and certainly a very large quan tity to be found in the stomach. I cannot tell of any case of homicidal administration in which so large a dose was given. I state upon the authority of Dr. Taylor that jaundice is a symptom. (Shown Taylor's work, and asked to point out the passage.) I do not know the fact except from reading. Ithink Taylor refers to Christison as his authority. The Dean—No, not Christison, but Marshall. If you can give me a single line except the one now shown me, in which Taylor refers to Marshall as his authority, namely, at page 62, I entreat you to show it to me. Witness—l am not aware that it is mentioned in any other part of the article than the page to which you allude, but I would require to read it over. The Dean—But surely when you come here to swear, as a man of skill, that jaundice is a symptom of arsenical poisoning, you are prepared to give me a better answer than that. Do you know there is a life depending ou this inquiry ? Pray keep that in mind. Witness—l know jaundice to be a secondary symptom of arsenical poisoning by my reading. The Dean—And is there any reading that you can condescend on, except what I have pointed out to you? Witness—Nothing. Cross-examination resumed—The ulcers might be produced by other causes than irritant poison. I never saw ulcers in the duodenum except in this case, but I should conceive that any cause of in flammation of the upper intestines would produce them. _ Re examined—The presence of jaundice would not sway me very materially in the view of arsenical poisoning. I have made a great many post mor tem examinations. Dr. Penny recalled and re-examined for the Crown.—l have made experiments as the effect of the colouring matter in the arsenic of Murdoch and Currie, as to how far the colouring matter could be afterwards detected. I administered Murdoch's to a dog, and I found no difficulty in detecting the soot in the stomach of the dog. I administered arsenic coloured by myself with indigo to another dog, and I had no difficulty iu detecting the indi go in that case. I administered to another dog a portion of the arsenic sold by Mr. Currie, an I detected black particles in the stomach, but could not undertake to identify the arsenic found with the arsenic given. I found carbonaceous parti cles, but could not undertake to say that they are of themselves sufficient to identify any particular description of arsenic. I could not detect no ar senic in the brain, but I found it in the stomach, as well as in the texture of the stomach. Cross-examined.-1 made myself acquainted with the quality of the colouring matter in Currie's ar senic before administering it to the dog. The par ticles found in the dog's stomach bore a close re semblance to the colouring matter, both in their physical appearance and their chymical properties. Their appearance and properties were, indeed, identical. Christina Haggart, or Mackenzie—l was mar ried to Duncan Mackenzie since the end of Marcia last. I was previously servant in the family of Mr. Smith. I was two years in their service last Whit sunday. Miss Smith was the eldest of the family. Miss Bessie is a grown up young lady, perhaps about two years younger than Miss Smith. I think Miss Janet will be about 12 or 13. John, the eldest son, will be about 16 or 17., and was in an office in Glasgow ; and Jamesis two years younger. He was till the end of March at a school in Edin burgh. The family had a house at Rowaleyn Row. The first winter I was with them they lived in India-streot, Glasgow. While they were living there Miss Smith pointed out a French gentleman to me, but did not tell me his name. I never heard his name, that I remember, till I was examined. Miss Smith told me he was a friend of hers. She pointed him out to me from the window one day he was passing. The photograph shown me appears to be a likeness of him. He once came into the house at India-street by the back gate, which Miss Smith requested me to openfor him. The family were all at church except the youngest sister. She took him into the laundry. They shut the door after them. He remained about half an hour. He came back at night afterwards on several occa sions—three or four times. He came about ten o'clock. This was before the hour the family re tired, but, so far as I remember, they were not at home. Oti these occasions he stood at the back - gate, and did not come into the house to my know ledge. I sometimes opened the gate when he was not there, that he might come in, and sometimes when I went out, at Miss Smith's desire, to open it he would be there waiting. Miss Smith gene rally went out to him. The back door was a good way from the laundry, but they might have gone in there without my seeing it. I once pointed this gentleman out to Duncan Mackenzie, my present husband. I said he was a friend of Miss Smith's, but I do not remember if I mentioned his name. I have spoken to that gentleman. He onee made eet H i me a present of a dress while we lived in India-str. did not say what he gave it for. N e versaw him Letters t remember i n the neighbourhood of Rovealeyn. were sometimes addressed to me for Miss Smith at India-street. She said they were coming from her friend, mea nt M. and asked me t o receive them. I thought she L'Angelier. I c ould not tell the number of letters that came in that way. I gave them all to Miss Smith. Letters came to Rowaleyn addressed in the same way. I have called for letters addressed to Miss Bruce at Row aleyn, which I gave to Miss Smith. Miss Smith h as given me letters to post, I think to L'Angelier, but could not read the name. I have posted letters to his address, from India-street, from Blythswood-squaro and from Rowaleyn. I once delivered a letter to the same address in Franklin place. I left it at the house. In the Blythswood square house there is a backdoor, opening to the area in the back lane. Miss Smith asked me once to open that back door. It was a good long time before she was apprehended. I could not say how many weeks. I think it was not so much as two months before she was apprehended. It was at night she asked me t> do this—past 10. I was iu her room which was on the same floor as the kitchen, when she asked me. I slept in the room next the back door. The cook slept with me. Her name is Charlotte M‘Lean. I opened the back gate, but saw no one there. I left it open and came into the house. I also left the back door of the house open. I went into the kitchen. On going into the kit chen I met MiS3 Smith in the pass age, going to wards the back door. I then'heard footsteps com ing through the gate. I d id not hear where Miss Smith went to. I did not hear the door of my room closed. I was in the kitchen half an hour or so. Charlotte Al`Lean was in the kitchen at the time. i pm 112 k f 12 i li i IN RE BUGBEE. Mr. Chidley applied on behalf of the widow of this bankrupt for an allowance, under the following circum stances :—lt appeared that the bankrupt died three or four days after he had surrendered. ' The widow bad only been married to the bankrupt about six months, and had brought in about 5 or 600/. into the busines, and after the death of the bankrupt she bad not the means to defray the funeral expenses, and the Court granted 151. for the funeral, 101. to provide herself and two children with suitable mourning. About 2,0001, had been proved against the estate, and it was estimated the sale of the stock, furniture, &c., would . realiz) up. wards of 1,0001. Mr. Chidley now applied for an allowance of excepted articles, according to the act. , - His Honour at first doubted whether he bad the power. Mr. Chidley referred to the 25th section of 7 and 8 Vic. c. 19, and contended that the widow could select in the place of her husband. _ _ . His Honour ultimately granted the application. CRIMINAL COURT.—(This Day.) The July sessions of the Central Criminal Court com menced this morning in the Old Court, Old Bailey, before the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, Aldermen Sir Geo. Carroll, Sir R. W. Carden, M.P., Wire, and Hale, and Under-Sheriffs Anderton and Crossley. The learned Recorder, in briefly charging the grand jury, congratulated them on the small number of prisoners for trial, and there being but one case of a serious nature, namely that of Michael Crawley for the murder of his wife at Stratford. The other cases did not require any comment from him, but it was as well that he should allude to the bill that had recently passed the legislature for the abolition of trans portation, and the substitution of penal servitude. It must be admitted that some considerable advantages were derived from transportation by the isolation of the party, and his separation from all his former associates in crime, and also that when the term of punish ment had expired there was the opportunity of his being absorbed in the population of the colony where labour was in demand, and where he consequently had an opportunity of obtaining an honest living by honest labour. Circumstances, which he should not then stop to consider, had rendered it impossible to send oar cri minal population to colonies that had formerly received them, and it bad been a matter of consideration with the Government what punishment to substitute for trans portation, and the result had been the substitution of penal servitude. If transportation was considered by the criminal population as a terror, it was right that the substituted punishment should partake of the same character to prevent the increase of crime. The sentence of penal servitude hereafter to be passed on criminals would be found to be of a very severe character. The prisoner for many months after his conviction would be kept in separate confinement, and then removed to one of our penal establishments, where he would be placed to severe labour, and pass from the condition of a free man to that of a slave. The period of servitude would be rigorously enforced, and in no case would any of the punishment be remitted, except where there had been permanent good conduct during the incarceration, and then the remis sion would only be from one-sixth to one-third of the period. The effect of this change would be to confine the whole of our criminal population within the limits of our island, and then it would be for the consideration of well intentioned individuals how that population could be kept within as small a limit as possible. Various means might be adopted for that purpose ; first, by such measures as would prevent the people from con tracting criminal babas, and next, which was a very difficult matter, reforming those that had given Ray. All were personally interested in solving that difficulty, and it was their duty to do what they could to check the progress of crime by bringing that amount of intel ligence to bear on the question which they did on all others connected with the welfare and prosperity of the country. He could not doubt that means would be dis covered to attain the end so important to the interests of all and the repression of crime. ELECTION COMMITTEES.—(This Day.) BURY. The committee met at 11 o'clock. Mr. W. Harper, election auditor was re-called, and produced the election accounts. 81. 23. 3d. were paid to Thomas Baldwin for messengers and assistants ; 41. to Joseph Chadwick for night watching, and 201. 93. to Mr. J. Heap for printing ; 1391. 193. were paid for Mr. Peel's messenger. It was understood that the messen gers were non-electors. John O'Niel, manager of a cotton mill, deposed to the state of the town. People were congregated with sticks at the corner of the streets and shouted very much. Mr. Robert Gay, butcher, deposed that a voter named Poutey owed him 51. for meat. O❑ Saturday before the election Mr. Horrocks told him that if he would vote for Peel be would see Poutey's account paid ; witness declined. Horrock. theu told him if he did not vote for Peel, he would call in the money witness owed him on mortgage. Witness declined to vote for Peel, and the money was called in accordingly. OXFORD. The committee met this morning at the usual hour. Several witnesses were examined, who stated that previous to the election, meetings were held at the Horse and Jockey and other public houses, at which Mr, Neale addressed the electors. Beer was ordered and drank, but the witnesses were unable to state who paid for it. A witness named Bates stated that the beer: at the Horse and Jockey was supplied at Mr. Greenwood's direction, and the amount charged to his account. MAIDSTONE. The Committee met at eleven o'clock. Other evidence was given this morning of treating on the part of the sitting members. One voter, a butcher, was examined as to an offer of 121. for him to vote for the sitting members, but he declined and voted for Lee and Mildmay. Evidence was also given to show bribery on the part of Sturges as referred to in the learned counsel's opening speech. MAYO. The committee met this morning at eleven o'clock. The first witness called was Col. Knox, who stated that he was at the polling place on the day of the elec tion, and that there was none of the violence that had been described by Col. Higgins's witnesses ; but that, in fact, there was much less violence than usual at a con tested election for the county. He described the pro ceedings on the part of Col. Higgins's friends as of the most offensive character. He saw a great many per_ sons in the town, but their conduct did not partake of any violence, or of anything of an irregular and improper character. The dragoons were called in, and charged down the street, but he thought such a display unnecessary, nothing having been done to call for it. The only violence that he witnessed was the breaking of a pane of glass in an apothecary's shop, and some scratches on the house of Mr. Kenney, a magis trate. Sir Robert Blosso was next examined. He stated that on the day of the nomination he was at Castlebar He had attended many elections, and he never recol lected to have seen one before so quietly conducted. He was at Ballinrobe on the days of thee poll There was a great noise there, but no violence. He saw no stones thrown, nor sticks used. On the following day he saw some of Colonel Higgins's supporters in the streets, some with an escort and some without. The poll was adjourned, lie believed, on Mon day, at Colonel Higgins' s request, because he had no more voters to poll on that day. In his cross-examination he said that he saw nothing irregular. He knew Father Conway. He was not the most quiet man be knew, and he thought him a dan gerous man to head a mob. The priests had for some time assumed to dispose of the representation of Mayo. Mr. Moore was the priests' man at the election. Hr knew of no more dangerous mob than one composed of Irish women armed with stones. The Hon. Jeffrey Browne was then called, and gave similar evidence to the above witness. We usually went to bed between 10 and 11, but I cannot say if wo stayed up longer than usual that night. Miss Smith wished we might stAy in the ki when a little. When she told me to open the ba - At door she said sho was to see her friend. While I stayed in the kitchen I did not know if she was my bedroom, but I ha7e no doubt she was. When we heard Miss Surth go to her room we left the kitchen. We heard the door of Miss Smith's bedroom open, but we did not hear the back bedroom door open. When: we went we found our room door :hut. There is a front are to the house. The key of the door is sometimes in the kitchen and sometimes iu the boy'S room. I heard Miss Smith was to ba married from her mo ther. This was before she was apprehended. I think a good while before. I asked her what she was to do with her other friend, and she told me then, or sometime afterwards, that she had given him up. I asked if she Lad sot back her letters. She said, "" No, Ido not care." I once, in India street, refused to receive letters for her. I also refused at one time, in Blythswood•square, but I don't remember if she passed any remark. She said she could receive letters at the window. This was More I had refused. I have seen L'Angelier iu Main-street, close to the house. He was walking slowly along. This was in the beginning of the last winter. Miss Smith could have passed from her bedroom to the kitchen or up stairs without being overheard by us. I never saw any rats in our house in wi,ocl-square. I remember Sunday, the Blyths '.2(.1 of March. I was unwell that day, and kept my b:-d in consequence. I got up between 5 aid 6is the afternoon. I saw Duncan Macken ze that evening. He came between 7 and 8. I was at the family worship at 9, as also was Miss Smith. Mackenzie remained below. I left Miss Smith in the dining-room, and did not see her !again that evening. I went to bed at 10. Mackenzie left shortly before that time. We heard nothing in the cour,e of that night, and knew nothing of any stranger being in or about the house. I remember Miss Smith leaving home unexpectedly on the Thursday following. I remember her being at an evening party, between the Sunday and the Thurs day. I cannot say if it was Wednesday evening. The key of the back door was kept that night in my bedroom. It was about 8 in the m3rning that Miss Smith was missed. There was a key to the back gate of the area, of which I had charge. It is a wooden gate in a high wall. The key of the back door of the home generallystood on the wall. The back gate was sometimes locked, but mere gene rally "snibbed." The key of the low front door was always left in the lock, as also the key of the high front door. It was the key of the front area gate that the boy kept. I had charge of Miss Smith's bedroom. I never during February or March saw the water she wa3hed in peculiarly black or peculiarly blue. Cross-examined—l think it was soon after Miss Smith pointed out her friend that I knew of the correspondence. It was in April or May of 1856 the family went to Row. It would be a good while before this I knew of the correspondence. After I received some of the letters I declined to take more. Her mother found out that something was going on, and forbade me to receive any letters. The fa mily came back from Row in Nov. last. Ido not remember how long it was after the family's return that this gentleman came to the house, but it was a good while. Irememberthe familygoingto Bridge of Allan. It was a good while before this that he came. I could not say how long. Ido not remem ber the time Mrs. Smith told me that Miss Smith was to be married, but it was before we went to Bridge of Allan. The interview of the gentleman with Miss Smith might have been in the lobby. Her youngest sister slept with her, and she would be in bed by that time. My present husband was pretty frequently about the house at that time— several times in the course of a week. Duncan Mackenzie went out by the back door on the Sun day night. I saw him to the outer gate and " suibbed it." I have no reason to suppose I did not lock the inner door as usual. After leaving Miss Smith in the dining-room I did not see her that night. She gave me no reason to suppose she had had any meeting. I do not know if Miss Smith and Mise Janet went to bed together that night. The lock of the back door makes a con siderable noise when it is turned. It is close to my bedroom. The window of our room looks into the back area, and is secured by iron stanchions. By the Court—When the family went to Bridge of Allan the servants were left at home. I saw Miss Smith when she came back on the Thursday from Row. She had a small carpetbag with her. It was not very small, but it was such as a lady might carry. It was in India-street that I was de sired by Mrs. Smith not to receive letters for Miss Smith, but I did receive some afterwards. The Lord Justice Clerk—l suppose in reality, as Mackenzie was visiting you, you were willing to oblige the young lady ? (A. laugh.) Charlotte M`Lean—l was cook in Mr. Smith's family for six months, up till last Whit-Sunday. I never saw any gentleman visiting Miss Smith with out the knowledge of her family, nor had heard of it. I never got letters to deliver or post to M. L'Angelier. I never knew of her receiving such letters come addressed to Miss Bruce. I 'remember one night Christina Haggart asking me to remain longer in the kitchen, as some person was speaking to Miss Smith. I afterwards beard her go into her bedroom, on which we went to her room. I was at family worship on Sunday night, the 22d March, and left Miss Smith upstairs. I did not know of any person being in during the night. I heard no noise. Cross-examined—lt was near 11 that night when we went to bed. Duncan Mackenzie—l was married recently to Christina Haggart. I was visiting her on Sunday the 22d March. I left about 10 by the back gate. I was in the way of visiting her when the family lived in India-street. She once pointed out a gentle man to me at the back door of the house, but she did not tell me his name or anything about him. Cross-examined—l spoke to this gentleman. I was coming up to the house, and he asked me if I was going in. He asked if I knew Christina. He asked me to ask her to go out to speak to him. She went out. I did not hear what they said. I was not jealous about this, but she was afraid I might be. I had a letter afterwards, signed "M. Smith," telling me it was her friend I had seen, and hoping nothing would arise between us in consequence. I did not preserve the letter. I never saw that gen tleman again. I was frequently about that house afterwards, and subsequently about the house in Blythswood-square, but never saw him again. James Galloway deposed to having seen L'Ange her going up Sauchiehall-street on Sunday, March 22, about 9 o'clock. That would be in the direction from Franklin-place to Blythswood-square. Cross-examined—He was walking rather slowly. Mary Tweedle deposed to his calling at Mrs. Parr'e, St. Vincent-street, at 20 minutes past 9. He called for Mr. WAlester, who was not in. Blythswood-square is 5 minutes walk from there. Thomas Kavan, night constable, Glasgow police. —My beat in March last included the north and east sides of Blythswood-square, and thus included Mr. Smith's house at No. 7. (Shown photograph of L'Angelier.) I have seen that person more than once. I saw him at least two months previous to my being examined about him. I saw him in Main street. As well as I can recollect it would be 10 or 11 o'clock. He was standing at the lamppost nearthe lane. He once accosted me and said, "It's a cold night, policeman; do yousmoke?" I said " Yes," and he gave me two cigars. When' saw him he was about the breadth of this courthouse from Mr. Smith's house. I recollect having s een him some 10 or 12 days after the first time. He was passing along theon the north side of Blythswood q su are garden going side, eas t towards West R ege nt- s t ree t. H e wa s passing opposite 5 and 6, which are west of No. 7, and he was going east. I saw him again a fortnight or three weeks previous to the time I was examined. I saw him at the corner of West Regent street coming towards Blythswood-square. It might be between 9 and 10 o'clock. 'never saw him again. Cross-examined—l was examined on the 2d of April. I was on my beat on Sunday the 22d March. I am quite sure I did not see him that night. Win. Young, photographer, Helensburgh (shown the photograph found in L'Angelier's I made this photograph. It is a portrait of Miss Ma delhae Smith. It was dose in September, 1856, at her desire. Mrs. Towers—l am sister to Miss Perry, who lives in Glakow. I live in Chester, but in March last my husband and I lived at Portobe llo, nea: ., Edinburgh. I remember L'Angelier coaling to vise us there. He dined with us. He talked of his health almost the whole time. He said he had been given cocoa and coffee, but after taking them they hay disagreed with him, and he had been very ill. He said he had not been accustomed to them. He made the remark that he thought he bad beenpoi soned. This was after speaking of the coffee and cocoa. Nothing was said or asked about who ha( poisoned him. James T o wers, husband of last witn es s—l was a one time a merchant in Glasgow, but resided it Portobello in March last. I had met L'Angeher m y sister-in-law's in Glasgow. 1 remember his din jog with us in March. He told us he bad a very violent bilious attack or jaundice. He said he ha( had two attacks after taking cocoa or coffee. Hi said he thought himself poisoned after taking th( cocoa and coffee. I remarked whowould poison him, or what object could theie be for that 4 but Idi not recollect he made any answer. He told us h( was going to return to Glasgow, and was after thi going to Bridge of Allan. He looked quite well I understood he had taken the coffee and cocoa a , different times. Cross-examined—He ate a good dinner an( talked a good deal. Re certainly was of a talkativ' ~~,`~ lli i 99 i 1011 65i 5 1001 11. i t 1031 451 71. 1 61 2 ad '
