One, how ever, of their "great guns" was the Baron Rolfe, now Baron Cranworth, (called by the profane " Baron Two pence-worth). He was a " patient and a dignified judge." Now all this praise I cannot exactly comprehend. " Patience' in a judge is no merit. It has not been from the bench, or to threaten a of Jeffries ; and as to `` dignity," usual to abu,s . o a_ prisone Y had plerity of it in the ex-Lord Chief Justice, and 'it 1- (itfly displayed when he was pompously enunciating 6 , 4 His famous piece of mock Johnsonism in 0 ' , rase; that "trial by jury in Ireland would " had only one to do with the law of the subject, lot upon the pleadings, but (I beg your a newspapers.

But the " patient and nified" Vice-Chancellor thinks such a bequest calcu d to lead to a virtuous and distinguished life, as all rages are or%ly given for virtue and distinction.

There is very little doubt that the career of trade has been a great deal shorter than any of the quacks who began it could have anticipated. It is said, and on excellent authority, that the Papists are as unfortunate-in the temper of their Irish as their English " Pyimate," and that that peculiar kind of inci dent, called: vulgarly a " shindy." took place after the .6 aggregate Meeting" in Dublin. Mr. Moore, of Mayo, —a man of rathet , a fiery disposition —was not disposed to stand Cullertis repeated' quips and " pull-ups," and es pecially his fprcing_him to declare that Popery and civil liberty went alWays band in hand. Cullen accused Moore of talking sedition', and compromising the priests, who, whatever rebuff* they meant, professed not to talk of any ; and Culren 'denied that there is any oppression in Naples, or itainnbardy. Common-sense, you see, is not allowed in Wilt a game as this. I have troubled' you but little About the Crystal Palace. Like many other great undertakings, however,the arrange ment of the ehd is likely to be much more difficult than that of the besinping, and the consequences of the Exhi bition are beginning already' to appear. The rumour - is too strong not to have somerfoundation,-that it is deter mined by the greattnajority of exhibitors to pay the duty upon their_,l odt and have.ttlem sold in London by public auction. TI p .IT a cou'r§e'i far more disastrous to native trade than tl most determiped opponentif the Exhibi tion could pcgisibly,bave anticipated. It is the foundation mine on, as Bahb Dodir greater ignominy, if that we present suffe,ced. Tin Common the House 4 expedients, There never and every tradesman fairly laid of a long. period of sad depression amo••gs` the professors and artiz ins of all the ornamental arts—arts already more than sufficiently depressed, for free trade has brought the classes who once patronised art to consider much more about paying the butcher than the painter, and the baker than . the je-weller t our late policy has so far approximated us t o th e s t a t e o f F rance as to bring into vogue casts of statuary and mock bijouterie, while we have no "perfidious Albion" at hand to which to send the works of nur artists, and bring back their value in gold. Whatever may be thought of its effect, it is positively asserted that the French exhibitors have de cided upon an auction, and that Alderman Musgrove, the Lord Mayor, who is an auctioneer, has actually been en gaged to sell to the highest bidder, the French collection. It appears that his lordship mixed the useful with the pleasant in the late visit to Paris, and was not only ho noured with a fete, hut " honoured with instructions to sell." Of course, those classes for whom the Times , zravely admits that free-trade was designed ; " those who have money to spend," will be happy of the opportunity of so general and interesting an auction; and as to the English workmen and shopkeepers, who make a living by making or selling the commodities thus imported, why, they are lac© they . not model I But now comes the question about dividing the spoil. There will be a profit of about £200,000, after payment of all expenses, and the commissioners are in a complete embarrass des richesses. What is to be done with all this money ? Every man has his own plan, and Mr. Pax ton's horticultural imagination insists on a " winter-gar den" for the more ready k lling-off of consumptive pa tients, who are to step out of his Mediterranean tempera ture into a London fog, or sit from November to April on a camp stool under the glass. Others have their projects, but a most excellent example of what the public think the Whigs capable of doing is the rumour that they are about to seize on the supplies. They assert that they had a certain amount of responsibility, and they will take care to reimburse themselves. Precedents, too, are talked of, as. for instance, Pitt's expedients during the war. I could give them another,—the shutting up of the Exchequer and the robbing of the goldsmiths in the time of Charles 11. If it is true that the Attorney and Solici tor-General have given their opinion that ministers are entitled to confiscate the profits. this case in point was doubtless submitted to them.

However, if people will believe that the eclipse kept off "on account of the Exhibition." why '3revet. or a new hatch of peers, or bishops, on By the way it is to make a new batch of account of it ? baronets. Considering the origin of the order of baronets (for which the curious may consult Naunton and the writers of James's time), this kind of thing is ad right. James the First began it, to turn in " the siller," and a speculation so profitable as the exhibition could not be more appropriately commemorated. As to knighthood, they say, it will be difficult, as Horace Walpole said, to shoulder any one but a knight in the streets ( I forbear the literal quotation), but the report that the bland and polite sergeant of the Sappers and Miners is to be knighted is a rumour which, in press. phrase. "needs confirmation." Cheapness, however. is the mania of the day, and baro netcies and knighthoods are the cheapest kind of reward— s reward which no government so desperately placed, and so wonderfully respited, can refuse to give, for (as Lord Lyndhurst said the other day, in that old Attic spirit that brought back the memory of the withering fire of 1834-5-6) speaking of the exhibitors of upholstery, " The exhibitors are all upholders—they have upheld the Cabinet." Great destiny of the Whigs !—a queen's marriage—a royal christening--the bedchamber women—a great exhibition —such are the " constitutional causes" that keep in oThce, in spite of the people, the " successors of Fox !" If this system goes on, I do not despair of seeing a Whig govern ment saved by Richardson's show. PARIS. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Saturday Night. I HEAR that the chiefs of the legitimist party are to meet during the parliamentary vacation at Wiesbaden, where the Count de Chambord is expected in a few days. The questions which now divide that party, wi' it is hoped, receive a definite solution, and that the friends of the Count, in the Assembly will return to Paris, prepared to carry out the plan of the campaign to be decided at Wies- baden. IL is stated that the President of the Republic has sent 1000 f. to the prefect of the Isere for the relief of the inha bitants who have suffered by the late inundations. The prefect has written to Cardinal de Bonnul and to the Bishops of Oivier and Marseilles for their assistance. It is rumoured that the Union Electorale has dissolved itself after a stormy sitting, in which the Prince de Join vilie had been proposed by the Orleanists and energeti cally opposed by the Buonapartist and Legitimatist mem bers. The editor of the Courrier Republicain de la Cdte d' Or, and the responsible director, have been sentenced, the first to one year's imprisonment and 3000 f. fine, and the other to one month's imprisonment, for publishing a seditious libel. The President of the Republic has con ferred the decoration of the Legion of Honour on the Ser geant of Gendarmerie Chamaut, who was wounded in repressing the recent disturbances at Laurac ; on the ser geant of the same corps, and one or two others, for de fending the post of the municipal guard in the Champs Elvssees, in the month of February, 1848. The Semaine was tried on Wednesday for a defamatory article regarding the treatment of political prisoners at the Belle Isle, which ended in a verdict of guilty, with exte nuating circumstances ; notwithstanding which the court condemned the author of the article, M. Sarrans, to six months' imprisonment and 2000 f. fine, and the editor to three months' imprisonment and a fine of 20001. This last-named gentleman writes on economical subjects, and was just recovering from severe indisposition. The National publishes a letter from M. Schceheler to Mazzini, enclosing subscriptions from members of the Mountain in aid of the cause of Italian independence. The writer says he hopes that the Italian patriots will not confound Frenchmen with their government, against whose occupation of Rome he protests in the name of himself and friends. The Ordre again proclaims the Prince de Joinville to be the candidate of the Orleanists for the Presidentship, and the Opinion Publique declares that the prince cannot have the support of the Legitimists. Whatever course the Legitimists may adopt, it is quite certain that there are three candidates, all of whom they are determined to reject. _ _ _ A gentleman living on his fortune was arrested on Wednesday, at Montrouge. under the following circum stances :—The egents of the police had remarked him frequenting public-bouses in that neighbourhood, and whenever he saw any soldiers drinking that he conversed familiarly with them, and concluded by offering them an engagement in an association formed to proclaim the Count de Chambord King of France. He had addressed himself to two grenadiers of the 30th Regiment; but they, instead of accepting his offer, conveyed him to the commissary of police of the neighbourhood, who, having investigated the whole matter, ordered him to be sent, under an escort, to the conciegerie. The Legitimists who have returned to Paris from Nantes, since the ceremony of opening the railroad to that town, say that the affairs of the Count de Chambord are pro ceeding favourably in the western and southern depart ments. Their friends have formed electoral committees, and have selected their candidates for the Assembly, to be chosen next year. _ The President has placed at the head of the recently created Knights of the Legion of Honour the Widow Btulow, born in 1771, at present an officer in the Inva lides, where she has been residing for the last 52 years, enjoying the esteem and veneration of her companions in glory. She was the daughter, wife, and sister of military men, who died in active service in the army in Italy, and is stated to have performed most courageous exploits. The Permanent Committee of the National Assembly met on Wednesday. M. Leon Faucher has arrived from London. Prince George of Prussia arrived at Havre on Tuesday. There is a general dearth of news; but business of all extremely active SOUTH LANCASHIRP. • ASSIZES CONTINUED FROM SECOND PAGE CROWN COURT-YESTERDAY [Hitherto, at our assizes, it has been the practice, on the Monday mornings, not to commence the business of the court until half an hour after the usual time—nine o'clock—in order to await the arrival of the train from Manchester, and with this regulation punctuality has always been observed. However, this morning great inconvenience and delay were occasioned in consequence of the non-arrival of the witnesses in the case arranged to come on first—the poisoning case from Manchester. Mr. wler remarked that of late no dependence whatever could 1.); - ; placed on the time of the arrival of the trains at the station; and Mr. Monk added that at former assizes the Railway Com- pany bad been in the habit of running a special tr sin for the accommodation of the court ; but at the present assize this arrangement hay' not been observed, and this delay was the result of it place in South Field-street between the prisoner, his wife, and some of the neighbours, when the prisoner threw a stone at his wife, but which struck the deceased, and caused her death in the course of a few hours. The jury found the prisoner guilty. but strongly recommended him to mercy on the ground of the offence being a mere accident. In consideration of the recommendation and the previous good character of the pri soner, he was sentenced to one month's imprisonment. The case of Jackson, the police-officer, who was so seriously wounded in the late Papist riots, arising out of the Orange procession, is fixed to be heard before the magistrates on Thursday next. The Montezuma, Captain De Courcy, one of the Black Ball line, arrived here on Saturday evening. She sailed from New York on the 3(1 instant, and has beaten the whole fleet depart ing with her. ALARMING Ftaa.—About two o'clock yesterday morning a fire was discovered on the premises of Mr. Laden, publican, Parliament-street (near to the docks). The fire broke out in two places. A coloured man, a boarder in the house, jumped through an upper window, and narrowly escaped with his life. The premises were totally consumed, and the adjoining ones, for some time, stood in great jeopardy. LAUNCH.—On Thursday next, the 28th inst., about 4 p.m., a fine sea-going schooner will be unched from the canal building-yard of Messrs. John Noble, immediately at the rear of the Borough Gaol. The above is the property of Messrs. Samuel and Llewelyn Ll,}yd, timber merchants, of this town. The adyantage of the connection between the inland canal and the river docks is displayed by the erection of this vessel, and also the practicability of large craft being built in the centre of the town.

MURDER AT MANCHESTER James Waddington and Ann Waddington, (his wife,) were indicted for the wilful murder of Mary Hardy, by means of adminiFtering to her arsenic, on the 23d of April last. Mr. Monk, along with Mr. S owler, conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. Pollock defended the prisoners. Mr. MoNK gave a full detail of the circumstances of the case, which, at the time of the occurrence, were published at considerable length in the newspapers. The prisoners are man and wife, living at Manchester, and the deceased was the illegitimate daughter of the female prisoner. On the 23d of April, the d ecease d went to a f a i r, an d on t h e f o ll ow i ng morning she was found lying dead by her bedside. On a post modern examination being made, so many as 120 grains of arsenic were found. On the clay following the death of the deceased, the male prisoner went t o a b ur i al soc i ety, of w hi c h t h e d ecease d was a member, and procured £7, to which she was entitled. The prisoners were subsequently apprehended on the charge of murder. The following evidence will be sufficient to put the reader in possession of all the necessary facts :-- Thomas Waddington. a son of the prisoners, said he went to dinner at one o'clock the day before his sister Mary died. He and his bro er, who was eight years of age. dined together, and had potato pie for dinner. As he was returning to his tea he met his father, mother, and brother going to the fair. At seven o'clock his mother brought his tea to the shop, a thing which she had never done before. At that time she said nothing about his sister being ill. He went home at ten o'clock. The next morning he was sent to request his sister to get up. He found her on the floor. He told his mother, and then she went into the room. They kept sugar, treacle, Bir., in the cupboard, and he had frequently seen Mary tasting things there. By the JUDGE.—He had never talked to his parents since they had been taken into custody. Dr. H. Brown, lecturer on medicine, was for iwo years lecturer on medical jurisprudence, and physician to one of the hospitals in Manchester, stated, that he had upon several occasions attended the female prisoner professionally. On the 23rd of April be was called to the house at a quarter past seven o'clock in the morning. He saw the body of the deceased in a sitting posture. The forehead rested on the hand, the elbow of which was placed on the edge of the bed. The fore head was dark. The lips were livid, the teeth closed, and the tongue slightly protruding. The body was warm, except the 'emale that lie finger nails were blue deceased, the r day before, had liaTi.oiii - i;:p1 - ,;foi dinner, and bread and butter for her tea. He asked whether she had eaten anything else, and the prisoner replied that she had been eat ing nuts. She said the deceased had been sick two or three times, and some of the contents discharged she still had. He examined these and found them to contain a sediment of mucus and vomited matter. She objected to empty some of the matter in ' . . _ order that he might taAe it fioMe with him ; but her husband coming in told her to use a brown bowl for the purpose. He (the witness) went home for a bot tle, and when he returned all appeared to be in the same order as when lie left. The female prisoner said, "This is an awful job," and witness repli e d, " Yes; and we must let the coroner know ;" and the male prisoner said, "Yes ; we must becleared." He found nothing in the pock e ts of th e d ecease d. The vomited matter was almost all mucus. When he reached home, he no- Siced at the bottom of the bottle two spots, which consisted al most entirely of arsenic. He used two tests, and these were conclusive that there was arsenic. On the following day he made a post modem examination. The condition of the body was one of health—stout and robust. The jaw was locked. The stomach was much inflamed. It contained a pint of reddish fluid, like blood and water- There was white coagula, and mixed with this a white powder. On some portion of the mucus membrane there was the powder alone. On one place, about the size of a pea, the membrane was entirely gone. The stomach was varied in colour,—one-third being purple, denoting , txtravarated blood, and the rest a scarlet, denoting arterial blood. There were sixty grains of arceneous mixed with organic matter, probab' ,!or coagulm, judging from the appearanceiof the analysis. He had not the slightest doubt that arsenic was the cause of death. He had examined some powders brought to him by Inspector Neaves. There were ten or eleven of them,—none contained arsenic. The officer also brought to him a dirty wet handkerchief, which containen arsenic mixed with organic matter, as if a person who had taken arsenic had used it. He examined a coffee-pot, containing dregs of coffee: there was no arsenic. On the 10th of May the inspector brought witness a mug, smeared with arsenic. He (witness) had never told the prisoner of what dis ease the girl had died. In the afternoon of the 24th of April the female prisoner came to ask him whether he had found anyt- ling in the matter he took away with him in the bottle. He refused to tell her ; and on the following day she again called and said no arsenic would be found in her house; she had hail some, but had thrown it away ten days ago, and she stated that this arsenic her former landlord had given to her to destroy bugs. She said, as she was cleaning the cupboard, meeting with the arsenic, she threw it into the fire. Previously 'o this he had said nothing to her about arsenic. The prisoner told her that her daughter was aware that she had the arsenic, but that she did not know where it was. The arsenic found in the stomach was not mixed with chalk or lime. In cross-examination by Mr. POLLOCK, Dr. Brown stated that the female prisoner had not evinced any disinclination to to show him the contents emitted from the stomach of the deceased. Nothing appeared to have been disturbed during the time he was absent to fetch the bottle. There were at least 120 grains of arsenic in the stomach. There was also arsenic in the liver. From two to four grains of arsenic were sufficient to produce death. He should consider that the arsenic had been taken within six hours previously to death. Arsenic could only be kept mixed with - tea or coffee by continual stirring. The state of the kidneys and bladder indicated that arsenic might have been taken 'some days previously; Arse nic got to the liver through the medium of the blood. The deceased, if conscious at the time, must have known that she was taking a gritty substance. John SkirrOw, a lamp-lighter, (that being the calling of the prisoner,) deposed that on the 23rd of April, at seven o'clock in the morning, he met the prisoner at the Town-hall, and the prisoner asked him when he would call for a waistcoat, which he (witness) was going to buy from him. The prisoner said he did not want his wife to know anything about it, and in the morning, after extinguishing their lamps, they would call at his house, when:she was in bed, and he would give the waistcoat to him. They did so call. The prisoner lighted a candle and went up stairs. Witness heard his wife say: "They have been at the fair, and when they came back, we found the girl lying on her belly, between the two rooms, and she had been vomit ing. She said she had exnmined the sediment, and challenged the girl with having taken something. The deceased denied having taken anything except nuts. The prisoner told the girl that she had been taking something which she ought not, for that she had some arsenic in the house, which she obtained from Mr. Appleby, her landlord, for the purpose of killing hugs. She had wrapped the arsenic up in a paper, and placed it on a ledge under the stairs, but no one knew anything about it but the girl and herself. Just as she was speaking the male priso ner came down stairs. lie said " What art thou talking about this arsenic for; thou knows very well there's no arsenic bere." He then came oat with an oath. and said " Hold thy blab." The female prisoner repled, "Thou knows it is so, Jem. and its of no use of thee eating thy own words." Witness said he then took his waistcoai and went away. In cross-examination the witness said, that during the whole of this conversation the prisoner was in an upper room, and he only knew it was she from her voice. He further stated that the prisoner said her (laughter should have gone to a situation that day, and she had taken something to make herself ill to prevent her t!oing so. At nine o'clock he saw the prisoner at the Town-hall office. He (the prisoner) knew that the name of the landlord was Appleby. The male prisoner had been eleven years in the service of the Manchester corportion, at .e 1 per week. On - the morning of the 24th of April the prisoner got him (witness) to write a letter inviting his son to the funeral of the girl. Samuel Lee, another lamplighter, stated that about a fort. night previous to the death of the deceased, he met the male prisoner, and asked him whether Mary had got work yet ; and he (the prisoner) said, "No, but I'll very soon get quit of her." On the following morning he again met the prisoner, who asked him what .£7 would do for a funeral. He (witness) said it would do a mere nothing, for he himself had buried a little girl, and it had cost more. He again. saw the male prisoner one morning in the fair-week. The prisoner said Mary had been out all Monday night; that she bad been at the door, but he would not let her in. About nine o'clock on the following morning he again met the prisoner, who renewed the conver sation about Mary, and again asked what .e 7 would do for a funeral, when he (witness) replied as on the former occasion. On the Thursday morning following he heard of the girl's death. On the previous night the male prisoner told him that be had been to the fair ; that he had left home at five o'clock, and had returned at seven. lie saw the prisoner again at ten o'clock on the Thursday, and he (the prisoner) then told him that Mary was dead, and that he supposed she had died of apoplexy. On the evening of Thursday witness was at the prisoner's house, and went up stairs with him to see the dead body. Witness placed his hand upon the face, and said, " She does not look like a corpse, nor feel like one." Witness also said, " She has taken something"; and the prisoner replied, " Oh, tLe b-!" Witness, on hearing these words, immedi ately went down stairs. _ _ Edward Martin, also a lamplighter, deposed that he had spoken to the male prisoner at nine o'clock on the morning that the deceased died. The prisoner told him that Mary was dead. Witness asked him the cause, and the prisoner replied that he supposed it was a fit. Witness asked him if he thought she had taken anything she ought not to have done. He said nothing but nuts. The prisoner told him that Dr. Brown said it was an apoplectic fit. He again saw the prisoner at a beer house, and he told him that he had been to the coroner, with a note from Dr. Brown, and that an inquest would be held. The landlady observed that she should have felt sorry even if her child had died a natural death. The prisoner replied he should not mind if she had not had poison. A man came to the door with hats, and the prisoner spoke to him about cleaning a hat for him. Witness said he had never seen him wear it but once or twice, and the prisoner replied, " I was looking at it but yesterday." Witness said, " What caused you to look at it then," and the prisoner became confused. At length he re plied, "To see what state it was in." About three months before the death the prisoner said to him, " I wish she was dead or out of the way." _ _ _ To his Lordship—l had first asked him if she had not taken poison. - - - Bernard Riley stated that he had heard a man named Spen cer ask who the young woman lie had seen go into a privy near to his house was, and the prisoner answered that it was Mary, who had been to the fair, and on her return home late he would not allow her to come into the house, and she had gone into the privy. On the Wednesday night he had heard the prisoner tell some men that Mary was dead. _ Mary Penny said—She knew the deceased very well. De ceased went by the name of Mary Waddington. On the Wed nesday evening in the fair week witness saw the deceased look ing through the window, and witness remarked that she was looking very well and lusty. She heard of ber death on the following morning. _ Mary . terniheaa gave evidenee to the same effect. Immedi ately after hearing of Mary's death she saw the male prisoner go into Wilson's beer-house, and shortly return to his own house. He again came out, and went in the direction of Dr. Brown's. The female prisoner then came out carrying a cham ber utensil beneath her apron, the contents of which she emp, tied into a privy. rr. Brown shortly came to the house of the prisoners. The witness had lived next door to the prisoners 13 months prior to the death of the deceased. The walls were thin and she could bear all that passed.—Mr. Monk was about to ask relative to certain conversations which she had heard. Mr. POLLOCK objected. After an argument the learned Judge overruled the objection. The witness said at the time alluded to,the male prisoner was in the habit, on coming home at night, of swearing at his daughter for not having got anything to do. The deceased would reply, "No father, I have not." The prisoner would then run up stairs saying, " Damn your eyes, I have worked long enough ' for you • I will kill you.' After the prisoner had gone up stairs witness heard noises as if a barrel was rolling down stairs, and then there would be screams. This would occur perhaps three or four times a week when Mary was at home. After these noises Mary had come to witness' house, to be let in ; but she (witness) had refused, in consequence of having been threatened by the female prisoner. Witness remembered Mary working at a factory before the prisoner lift to go and live in another house. Witness had heard the female prisoner tell the de , to go aw"v on a Saturday night, and never to let he, ceasea -..ay (the prisoner) see her face again, as her father and she lived like cat and dog on her account. Witness had heard both prisoners say many a time that they wished Mary was dead. In cross-examination the witness said that the male prisoner had charged her brother about twelve months ago with having stolen lime. Betty Cunningham stated that her husband kept a beerbouse. The deceased had lived with her as a servant, for six weeks. On the Monday the girl was found dead the male prisoner called upon her and said Mary had been found dead. Witness went to the prisoners' house,where she saw the deceased. The female prisoner was in the room, and she asked why the girl looked so black:on the face and hands, for she looked as if she had been knocked against the wall. The prisoner said that was impos sible, as she had been wrapped up in the bed-clothes. The prisoner said Doctor Brown had been there and had said he thought the girl had died of apoplexy. On going down stairs the female prisoner said that she and her husband bad been at the fair on the Wednesday, and when they came home they found Mary lying on two chairs, vomiting. The prisoner said that about rive o'clock on Thursday morning, Mary came and wished to come to bed to.her. The girl pat her arms round her (the mother's) waist, but her hands were so cold that she (the prisoner) told her to take them away, and go to her own bed. When the deceased was going out of the room she turned back three times—first, for some tea ; next, to request her (the prisoner) to ask her father when he returned home to bring her a drink of water; and the third was to ask •for a blanket for her own bed. Deceased left witness' service about a fortnight before her death. Witness told her father that Mary had been telling tales Out of the house, and that would not do. It was for this she discharged the deceased. When witness told the male prisoner that she had discharged his daughter; he said he would break almost every bone in her body. The deceased was a remarkably healthy girl, a person of steady habits. and cheerful in her disposition. William Jackson, coachman to Mr. Williamson, surgeon, of Bloomsbury. His master's stable was next to the house of pri soners. He recollected the time of Mary Waddington's death ; he saw Mrs. Waddington and her daughter at his house. The female prisoner showed him a white powder, and said— " Look, Mr. Jackson, here is arsenic;" there was about a t a bl e spoonful of it. Witness recollected being at the house on Wed nesday in the fair week ; Mary was making a dress for herself. She then appeared in perfect health. Betty Smedley, the keeper of a beer-house, stated, that she remembered the Wednesday in the fair week. About a fort night before that Mrs. Waddington was at her house. She (wit ness) was washing some bedsteads. The female prisoner asked her what she was doing, and witness replied that she would fill every crevice with arsenic and soft soap, and the female prisoner said—" I've plenty at home; I'll give thee some." The prisoner then said, that her landlord had sent her albs. of it to put in some colouring, when they were colouring the house down. The deceased subsequently brought her some arsenic, which she (witness) mixed with soft soap, and applied it to the bedsteads. She slid, on the day of telling her, that she had arsenic, and that Mary had put her finger into it and tasted it. Cross-examined.—The female prisoner said when the de ceased tasted the arsenic it only made her mouth sore. The girl was with the prisoner at the time she said she had arsenic. Francis Appleby, the landlord of the house in which the pri soners lived, stated that he bad never given the prisoner any arsenic, neither had she asked for any. She had remarked to him that she and her husband did not live comfortably on ac count of the girl leaving her places. Witness told the prisoner that he thought she did not treat her so well as the others of the family. Before the coroner, the prisoner asked witness did he not recollect giving her arsenic, and be told her that he did not. Francis Johnson, collector of the Chorlton-upon-Medlock Friendly Burial Society--The two prisoners and deceased were members of the society. The deceased had been a member sixteen years, and was entitled to seven pounds. The prisoner on applying for the money said his daughter was dead, and he (witness) remarked that was very curious, as be had never heard of her being poorly. The prisoner said she had died sud- ' denly in the night, but on finding her he went for Dr. Brown who attributed death to apoplexy. In about a quarter of an hour after this witness went to the house of the prisoners, where he saw the female prisoner. She skid, alluding to the death of Mary, that it was a bad job. Witness acquainted the secretary with the death, and the money was paid. To his Lordship.—The application for the money was not made with unusual haste. Samuel Hill, secretary to the Burial Society, proved the pay ment of the .t'7 to the female prisoner. To his Lordship, —The female prisoner did not appear to be particularly distressed at the loss of her child. John Neaves, a Manchester police-inspector, stated that on Friday morning, the 25th of April, he went to the house of the prisoners, and found them there, He told the male prisoner that Mr. Beswick, the chief superintendent of police, wanted to speak:with him. The pri.oner said, " What does he want me for ?" His wife remarked, "It's about Mary, go with hint. This is a bad job, poor thing : she was well and hearty last night, and dead this morning. When we found she was dead, we sent for Dr. Brown, and lie says she died of an apoplectic fit." On the following Sunday witness went with Mr. Beswick to the house. Mr. Beswick left the prisoners in charge of the witness, whilst he (witness) made inquiries in the neighbourhood. During Mr. Beswick's absence, the male prisoner said, " I know nothing of administering, or anything of any arsenic." Mr. Beswick had told the charge, but Ilan not spoken of arsenic. The female prisoner said, "I know that our Jem is innocent, but people will talk." The prisoners were taken to the police-station. Witness received from Betty Smedley a pot, 'containing soft soap and arsenic, which he took to Dr. Brown. Mr. Beswick was next examined. He first heard of the death of Mary Waddington on the 25th of April. He sent for the prisoners, and told them that there were various reports rela tive to the death of their daughter, and he should make in quiries into the matter. He then cautioned the prisoners not to say anything to criminate themselves, as it might afterwards be given in evidence against them. The female prisoner then said, " I and my husband went together to the fair, and on returning, about seven o'clock, my husband went to light his lamps, without tea ; I went with Thomas's tea to Mr. Bisse's ; Marycomplained of being sick, and she went to bed ; I returned in about ten minutes and Mary was calling for some water; I took her some tea, and at eight o'clock she called for more water and a candle. About half-past nine o'clock my husband came home, and shortly afterwards we went to bed; I looked into Mary's bed-room as I passed, at 20 minutes to . 3 o'clock ; on the following morning my husband was called up to light • the lamps, and after he was gone Mary came into my bed. She lay with me t.ome time without speaking. She put her arms around me. I told her that her father would be coming down, and she had better go to her own bed. She said thosenuts have made me very thirsty. I (the femaleprisoner) gotup about fiVe o'clock,. and found Mary lying on the floor. I put my hand upon her, and she was very cold. I called my husband and we found that she. was dead. He went for Dr. Brown, who stated that she had died of apoplexy. I (witness) asked her if she had any poison in the house, and she said she had not, but that about two years ago she had taken a house from Mr. Appleby, which required' to be cleaned down, and that she had received some arsenic from him ; that she had used a part of it and put the rest in the cupboard; but that en the Friday previous she was cleaning down the house, and meeting with the arsenic she threw it into the fire. I asked her if her daughter knew where the arsenic was kept, and she said she did not, but that she knew she had some. The male prisoner stated he had been at the fair with his wife, and when they returned they found Mary lying on the floor. She appeared to be sick, and had an apron to her mouth. I (the male prisoner) went to light the lamps, and returned shortly after nine o'clock, At two o'clock on the following morning I was called up to extinguish the lamps, and I returned with Skerrow to give him a waistcoat. At seven, my wife called Thomas, and requested him to tell Mary to get up and make a fire, and the boy came back and stated that she was dead on the floor. We then both went into the room together. I went for Dr. Brown." On the following Sunday I (the witness) searched the house. In the interim there had been a coroner's inquest, and Mrs. Wad= dington was a witness. I . found several articles in the house, which I sent to Dr. Brown. The prisoners were subsequently re-arrested. The male prisoner said he was innocent, and the wife that she would rather be hanging from the window than be suspected. . _ _ Patrick Steward, the coroner% officer at Manchester, deposed to having called at the house of the prisoner, by direction of the coroner. He asked Mrs. Waddington what time the deceased had died, and she said between six and seven o'clock. He asked if she had been ill before, and she replied that she had not. She had been at the fair and returned between six and seven o'clock, and she found her lying on the floor, with her apron beneath her head. He asked the female prisoner whe ther there was any arsenic in the house, and she said there was not. Dr. Brown and Mr. Remick were recalled. Dr. Brown said he had remonstrated with the girl about leaving her places. Mr. Beswick said he liberated the prisoners after recognising a letter from Dr. Brown. This closed the case for the prosecution. _ _ Mr. POLLOCK addressed the jury for the defence, at very great length. His argument was, that the evidence was alto gether insufficient to show that the poison of which the de ceased had died had been administered to her by either one or other of the prisoners, and that the whole of the conduct of the prisoners after the death of the deceased, so far from evincing a desire to cover their guilt, was to court inquiry, and to furnish the means which must inevitably lead to their condem nation and punishment. At the conclusion of Mr. Pollock's address, his LORDSHIP adjourned the court to nine o'clock this (Tuesday) morning. Accommodations were ordered for the jury at the Angel Hotel. where they will be kept under the charge of the she riff% officers. We shall give the result in a second edition. MST PRIUS COURT.-YESTERDAY (After the disposal of some Nisi Prius business, Mr. Justice WILLIAMS beard Crown cases.) MANSLAUGHTER. John Noble was indicted for the manslaughter of John Mac- Donald, on the 16th May last, in Atherton-street. It appeared from the statement of Mr. Rushton, who conducted the pro secution, and the evidence in support, that on the day named, the prisoner went to the house of the deceased,who Had married his mother, and whilst some eggs were in preparation for dinner a family squabble ensued and blows were exchanged, when the prisoner suddenly drew from under his coat an iron weapon or bar and struck the deceased with it on the head, who instantly fell bathed in blood. The prisoner afterwards went into South John-street, and meeting a policeman, requested him to take deceased into custody for assault • ing him, which he declined to do, not having wit nessed the assault. He was subsequently called in to see the deceased, and instructed to take the prisoner into custody, which he did. The deceased was conveyed to the Southern Hospital, where, after remaining two or three weeks, he left at his.own request. Mr. Wall, the surgeon, stated that the de ceased had sustained a compound fracture of the skull, extend ing 2a inches in length, which was inflicted by a blunt instru ment. He had made a post mortem examination of the body, and the only cause of death was the wound on the head. The Learned JUDGE summed up with great minuteness and impartiality, and the jury, after a few minutes' consultation, found the prisoner guilty. Sentence deferred. MANSLAUGHTER ON BOARD A SHIP. Joseph Rider, the second mate of the American ship Guy Mannering, was indicted for the manslaughter of Alfred Os borne Gibbs, a boy on board that vessel. Mr. JAMES conducted the prosecution. He said that it had been neceesary on the 2d August last, when the vessel was in port, to lower the toretopsail yard, and that in performing that proceeding it became necessary that the halyards should be slackened. Word was sent down for the purpose, and what followed would be detailed in the evidence. Bruce M`Kinney said : I am chief mate of the Guy Mannerirw. She reached this port from New York on the 31st July, and the following day went into Bramley-Moore Dock. I remember the evening of the 2d August last. On that evening I sent de ceased and other hands to furl the foretopsail. After they had been up some time heard the 3d mate call out. The prisoner was standing on the larboard gangway. The third mate called out to slack the foretop sail halyard. A man named John Murray was at that time going up the fore rigging i I told him to slack the halyards, and to be careful how he,did it. It required care in letting down the halyard. Several men were upon the yard. If they were let go suddenly they would come down quickly. The prisoner said, "I'll slack the halyards for them—God d—n them." Told the prisoner not to touch the halyards. The prisoner then went round for the purpose. I heard them say almost the next instant, " look out for yourselves, for the mate has got hold of the halyards." I heard the yard come down by the run. Saw a man fall down into the dock, and also fall heavily on the deck. The prisoner was rather the worse for liquor at the time. I went forward to where the boy lay, and found him insensible. The prisoner then came forward, and was about to take hold of the boy, when I requested him •to desist. The prisoner had no business to touch the halyards, and I had ordered him not to interfere. By the Prisoner.—lt was not your place to lower the hal yards. I think it perfectly safe to send hands on the topsail yard when it was hoisted up within five yards of the masthead. If the chains of the yard had given way by being strained it would have fallen down. John Murray.—Was(;ne of the seamen on board of the Guy Mannering. The chief mate desired roe to lower the foretop sail halyards down. Took hold of the halyards for the purpose. At that time the prisoner was coming forward, and he took hold of the coil which he lifted on deck, and the halyard was ready for running. By the Prisoner.—lt is quite possible in a ship so large as the Guy Mannering to slacken the halyards in the easy manner described. The third mate of the vessel deposed that he was aloft. This witness corroborated the evidence of the previous witnesses. Mr. Wm. Eddowes, the house-surgeon of the Northern Hos pital, stated that the deceased was in a dying state when'ad mitted, and that he died within an hour afterwards, of the inj2ries he had received. The leiiined s ityncis having summed up, the jury found the prisoner guilty. Sentence deferred. -,,,-. GRAND JURY ROOM, YESTERDAY (Before Mr. Bias., Q.C.) Thotnag Rigby was indicted for the manslaughter of Robert Anscoff, at Wigan. The facts are as follow:—On the night of the Ist August last, the deceased went to the house where his wife lived. but she would not let him in as he was in liquoi. She desired him t, go away, and, upon his refusal, requested the prisoner to forcibly remove and thrash him, which he did, but so viole.itly as to cause his death on the following night. The jury 'found the prisoner guilty, and he was se►,tenced to eighteen irmths' impri• onment. - Richard Roberts was ndicted for the Manslaughter of Ellen Galvin on the night of the 13th July last. Air. Milward appeared for the prose( ution, and Mr. Atkinson for the defence. It appeared that, on the evening in question, a row took EN ORDER OF THE MORTGAGE. WIR.
