(Before Mr. RAixs.) • IMPORTANT TO CAR rrDRIVERS. • • Thomas Nugent, car driver, badge 599, who drives for John Roarke, was brought up by Inspector Hough and Officer Quine, 417, on the following charge :—The evidence was, that at a quarter to four on Tuesday morning, a noise was heard in the public-house of Mr. Mellish, London-road, and on going in, the offlcprs found eight drunken men in the place, the prisoner being one ; he *as very drunk and not able to take care of his . cab which was at the door, and in which was a female of bad character, who was asleep drunk. It appeared that the pri, soner had been fined before by the - magistrates. • Mr. Raffles said, as that was the case, he would not deal with the prisoner but send him to be dealt with by the Car Committee. He did riot think the question of carmen properly understood. The carmen complained that they were subject to double philish _ merit for offences—ffrst by the magistrates, and then by the Car Committee. This was not the case, and he wished it to be 'propel:lY understood that.when a carman Was 'fined by a magistrate, the same man was' not afterwards brought before the Car - Committee, on the same charge. •As in this - case, he would not adjudicate on it, but send it before the committee, and whatever punishment they would inflict would be final.: a WEST DERBY GUARDIANS. THE KNIFE John Horan was charged with, having stabbed. Margaret Noekelin, in a court in Adlington-street. Mr.'Bluck defended. The complainant and her sister stated that on Tuesday even ing; the .prisoner entered the house and created 601Ile, dis turbance, and in a row that followed, the prisoner stabbed her in the forehead with a large pocket knife. On cross-exarnina tion, .it was elicited that there was a quarrel between the prisoner's wife and the complainant, about a lodger. A sur geon proved that there was a punctured wounddown to the bone on the complainant's forehead. It was a imart'wo ,, nd, blit not dangerous to life. She lost a good deal of blood. Mr . Bluck produced witnesses to disprove the case, one et whom said the complainant cut the prisoner's wife, and the latter cut her in return. The prisoner's wife admitted (hi the court) that she did stab the cOmplainant. Mr. Raffles said there was a difficulty in deeidin _ g in consequence - of the, evidence, and therefore he would give the .benefit of .the - doubt to the pri 7 soner and discharge him. DANGEROUS ASSAULT. Andrew and Fatrick Kennedy, and ThoMesTOtthet (!iut on bail) were brought up on remand, charged with having eom:: mitted a desperate assault on James Kidd, on the 11th instant, in GrosvenOr:street. The details of tbis case appeared in our paper at the tittle of the assault, the facts being ttiee":—On the night of the transaction the prosecntor and his. it ite at the house of the father of one of the KennedYs, where they had sonic drink. The two Itennedys Caine in and were angry at what was going on. The prosecuter th en went hone, and as he stated, the prisoners followed him, knocked him down, kicked him in the b ea d, jumped ,on him, a n d i nflicted most serious injuries.on him: Mr.. Chiltoni - for the •prisonerryeross:- examined the prosecutor, who said, he had a . good „many g l asse l s of ale that day, but he denied having struck old Kennedy, nor did he use a poker orknife. Several witnesses were examined and proved the assault. Me; Chilton produced some wit nesses, but Mr. Raffles said he would not decide the. case, and sent . . the prisoners for trial. H e sa id h e wou ld take bail £4O each for their appearanee. • (Before Mr. SHEIL.) A PARTY ON SHIP-BOARD. Captain Patching, of the ship Lady Eyre,' in the Prince'ti dock, was summoned by Police-officer Hutchinson (714), for having,obstrticted him in the discharge of his duty on the lath inst. Mr. Bluck appeared far the captain. The officer said, that about nine o'clock on the evening in question, he went board the Lady Eyre in search of lights. He met the captain, who asked him what he wanted ; and he said he was searching for ; lights. The captain said, "be off out of this; or I will ~tiog you on shore." He told him he was in the diScharge of his duty, but the captain would not allow him to proceed further. Cross-examined by Mr. Bluck : It was about nine o'c'ock!; there was light enough from the day to see on the deck. There was a ball or party on board, ' but I dOn'Uthink there was light enough when they were dattcing. There Was a large party of ladies and gentlemen on- board, and. ..1 was going into the cabin without a n y permission. Heard music and dancing on board. Mr. 23luek:Did he tell 'yealthere was no light; in the cabin ? No, sir. Did You Want ici_be intro duced to the party? No. Mr. Block: • Don't you know the party consisted of his owners and private friends? • I do not know who they were. Did you not search the ship? I went to the bottom of the ladder,.• but :saw no light, and I wa , satisfied there was no light there. Mr, Bluck then addressed the magistrate, and contended that the policeman had no right to intrude on a private party on, board ship; no more than he would into a private house; And that he should have sent some notice to the captain that he was about going into the cabin to look for lights ; but ie denied 'that there was any light in the cabin. Mr. Sheil said the police bad a right to go on board ships to look for light.. Mr. Bluck : But we are not summoned here for having lights on boatel. Mr. Sheil: No, but for obstructing him looking for lights. The police must be protected, and I line the captain 20s. and costs. The fine was-paid IMBIBING'. • Robert Woods, described a s an i nnkeeper, in Waterloo-read, was charged by police-officer 778, who said, about one o'cloic in the morning he got him i n Lyndo n - roa d sur r ounded by a number of girls, to whom he was flinging money. He was drunk, and he thought it the best plan to lock him up, as he had £2B on him, and no doubt he would have lost it had he not been, taken care of, The defendant denied that he Was drunk, and said he was as sober as he was at that moment.. The bridewell-keeper.'who took the charge, said the defendant was drunk. Mr. - Raffies fined him is. FAMILIES OF SOLDIERS SERVING IN INDlA.—Durinc, the year 1859 the Emigration Commissione rs chartered, ° under directions from the Horse Guards, 13 vessels for the conveyance to India of soldiers' Wives and families. Of these four sailed from Gravesend, three from Liver pool, three froth Plymouth, and three from Southamp ton ; six sailed to Calcutta, three to Kurrachee, two to Bombay, and two to Madras. ANOTHER ROW, The weekly meeting of this board was held yesterday in the board=room of the Workhouse, the chair being occupied by Mr. Ward ; and the other members present heing Afessrs, Reyes, Woods, Ledger, Clarke, Roscoe, Webster, Jeffery, Garrett, Ledger, Pilling, Roberts, Medcalf, Abrahams, H. Edwards, SMith, and Ware ham. The governor reported that the nubero paupers, in the workhouse last week was 310, this week 309. The checines signed for otit-door relief amounted to £167. f r T a h l eitCatAarwouldforbear naontctehoinfkthheimmembers imper tinent in requesting that a matter which personally and trusted sd askedt htehye affected their chairman, should take precedence of the ) All of them, he had no doubt, had read the speech of Mr. Shaw at the last get:6l...g business. (Hear, hear. meeting, and his (the chairman's) reply thereto; and if they had done so, it would save him the necessity of trespassing upon their attention for any lengthened period. He could only repeat, that when the unfortunate woman appeared before the board he was perfectly ignoynt of all her antecedents. If he had had the least notion of what she was going to say, he thought he should, on resection, not in deference to Mr. Shaw, but in deference to the feelings of his family, have requested that the matter should be heard with elosca doors. The gentlemen who were present would, he dared say, recollect that at the time lie said it was not a matter for them, and that they were not a court of morality. Mr. Shaw seemed to lay considerable stress upon the letter which he wrote to him. When the statement was made by the woman,. and as soon as Mr. Sh aw ' s name was mentioned; he stopped the examinatkn, and sent 4 most courteous letter requesting Mr. Shaw to attend. Instead of writing him a reply he sent what he thought was a very curt answer both to himself and the board. (Hear, hear.) He appealed to the guardians who were present at the time, whether the whole of his conduct towards Mr. Shaw did not evince the greatest tenderness and the greatest consideration for him. If any gentleman there could say that he pressed the thing unduly upon hina, or that he put any question which the urgency of the case did not require, he should be glad if that gentleman would step forward ; and if any gentleman could say that he wittingly injured Mr. Shaw in the course of the proceed inge, ho could only say that his sorrow should go hand in hand with his offence. Mr. Shaw had not taken the part of a prudent man. When he received the intimation of the charge against him in a matter which affected his moral character and his position in society, he should have attended and have met the charge with the manli ness of an Englishman: (Hear, hear.) He did not, however, attend to the letter, and as a last resource he (the Chairman) sent 'Mr. Bolshaw, who, he believed, was his only personal friend there, to request him to come down. Mr. Bolshaw returned with a message of which he would say nothing but that it was offensive to a body of gentlemen there, and upon that the reso lution was passed, in which, however, he took no part except that he acted as chairman of that board. There was, therefbre, no excuse for Mr. Shaw's stitement. Mr. Roscoe had told him that hedid not believe that he (the Chairman) knew anything about the matter. The personal Anse he should not heed : coming from the source it did, he could afford to forget and forgive it, but that it bad been the subject of a great deal of obloquy with the public; and Mr. Shaw had intimated in his speech that they were a set of conspirators against his character. He did not know whether he was made out to be one of the conspirators, or only one who was in the relation of complicity in it. But'what was there in Mr. Shaw that he should go out of his way to conspire against him (Hear, hear.) Bad as the offence was in Mr. Shaw, if it were true, he held that any man that conspired against the character of another committed a crime which ought to be punished not only by the laws of social society, but, also by the severest sentence of the law of the land, short of capital punishment. (Applause.) Mr. Shaw had said another thing, and he appealed to them to say whether it was true or not: He seemed to think that the chairrnan of that board had assumed the posi tion of dictator there, that the members deferred to him in everything, and.were afraid to speak their own minds. Now he had been chairman only a short time. He had presided for many years over a neighbouring board; and never had a single angry word with one of the members. He appealed to them whether as a guardian, during the year that he was not in office, he had not conducted himself in every respect as a gentleman, and whether in giving his vote he had not apparently an honest object—the protection of the pauper and the protection of his constituency. (Hear, hear.) 'He appealed to them also, to say whether, since" he had been , chair man , h e h a d ever stopped the fair course of obiervation, or anything which had been brought before them; but,whether his endeavours had not always been, to' get rid of that personality, that imputation of motives which had made them for a long time a bye-word amongst the electors. (Applause.) Mr. SMITH--I did not hear the whole of the chair man's statement, as I came in about the middle ; but I have a word to say respecting it. I objected to the proceedings, I believe, altogether. If you were to go inquiring into the chastity of all the members of this board, go on, go through ; but begin at the house there. (Cries of order and chair.) The affair was altogether unwarranted, and the most dis--; I will stop the wore. (Laughter, and a guardian, " I think you had better.") But, Mr. Chairman, you say you stopped the enquiry you wrote the note to Mr. Shaw. In that note you state the enquirY had been held. The CHAIRMAN—I do no such thing. I stopped the examinatiop, but I never said a word about it. I said that a statement had been made, and that I stopped the fur ther prosecution of the enquiry until I wrote to Mr. Shaw. Mr. SMITH—But you suffered it to go on, and— The CHAIRMAN—I Mr. Smitit-t—l will not be interrupted. interrupt you. Your letter states that fact. The CHAIRMAN—What fact ? . Mr. Smug—You permitted all to be stated that could be stated to injure him. It was the worst transaction I ever retollect. (Cries. of " Order" and " Chair.") In your letter you admit that the investigation was concluded. . The CMAIRSIAN —I did not say any such thing. Mr. Smint—l did. not expect to have an impartial hearing,'so I' must answer in another way. When - you. wrote the middle of the letter, you did not know what. you said at. the begirming. You have committed your self most grossly. (Uproar.) As for this board, why, the pride of my life has been to have it censured, and I have enjoyed that twice this year, and I am proud of it. (Uproar.) lam proud of the censure of this board,: knowing the profligacy of that house. (Cries of " Order," " Chair," and great.confusion.) The CHAIRMAN—Yon have no right to impute bad conduct to anyone. Mr. SMITH—Then why do you do so? The CHAIRMAN --Mr.. Smith, you are not in order. ' Mr. SMITH—And you are riot in order. The CitAmrstAx—l must beg of you to sit down. Mr. SMITH—It was a most villainous proceeding ; and which of you can undergo the ordeal ? The CHAIRMAN—Mr. Smith— Mr. SMITH—You are a lot of— The CHAIRMAN—Mr. Smith— (Uproar.) Mr. - SMITH—But I challenge you:to prodiice anything against ine. I did not The CHAIRMAN—YOU know you are bound to obey the order of "the chairman ; and' if you do not, I shall exercise the privilege of am Englishman: Mr. ISAAC EDNVARDS moved a resolution expressing' satisfaction at the' cOndlict Of the chairman relative . to the charge against Mr. Shaw. Air; LEDGER said, that as he was not present at the last meeting or the previous one it would be improper for him to take part in the disciission, but he would perhaps be perMitted to say that he thought Mr. Shaw would'have adopted a wiser course bad he insisted upon the presence of the woman before he contradicted her statement. He said so because, not long since a pauper mistook him (Mr. Ledger) for another person at the door. He looked at her and said; "Look 'at me, woman, have you ever seen Me before ; she begged . his pardon and said she had mistaken him . for s'onie one elk." Re wotild i only remark th a t no one acqua i nted w i th the English language would put that construction upon Mr. Ward's letter which Mr. Smith had done. (Hear, hear.) The resolution having been carried, Mr. Smith only not voting in its favour; The CHAIRMAN said he would not say he was very handl obliged to them, because he really believed they had dome him nothing but justice. (eat, hear.) Mr. HEYEO said he had _been requested to oorrect'a misstatement to the effect. that Mr. Gough was eaves dropping at one of the doors at the previous meeting. The party who entered the room was Mr. Lythgoe, who was returning foi his cheque-book, but seeing that the board was at business retired immediately. Mr. Gough was not in the lobby at all. A GUARDIAN remarked that at the time referred to he 'saw yr. Gough s t an di ng on t he s t e p s a t the opposite side of file yard; Mr: SMITH—I should like to know who it was furnished the manuscript for the entry, which states that Elizabeth Wilkinson Caine before the board in the, usual course. Why use that expression? Can you find such an entry in the book on any other occasion ? • It is a conspiracy to-- • The CHAIRMAN—NOW, don't impute motives. Mr. SMITH--You are 'conscious it was a vile con spiracy against him. (Great uproar.) What busineiss had you with it? (At this time the chairman rose to call' Mr. Smith to order, and a scene of indescribable confusion ensued: s ' the voices of both speakeri being drowned by the cries of the other, and the uproar prevaili ng t h roughout the hoard.) The CHAIRMAN at length said,--If you interrupt the business of the board, Mr. Smith, I Shall exercise the authority of a chairman, and compel you to leaVe the room. Mr. CLARK—You ' uever will have peace until that old . man is removed, The Cuaut.turr-z7.3:0n have no right to vilify the per sons who differ frotifYOu. The Clerk read a letter front the Poor-law Board, stating that if Mr. Henry Edwards and Mr. Owen Roberts, were elected guardians of the poor for the township, at the election in April. 185 . 0, and continued to possess the Atidificatioits foi the (Ace, it was com- petent for them to act is guardians for the remainder of the current patobhial year. Messrs. M'Connal and Ifaigh, however, having been elected for the past year, were precluded from continuing to act by the 'erder issued by the board on the 12th instant. The board was not aware that the last named gentlemen were dis qualified from becoming candidates if an order was issued fOr a new election. Mr. SS MITH referred to a paper which had been sett by the Poor-law Board, and had to be filled up, with reference to the antecedents and character of Mary Parker, who was elected as nurse at the last meeting; and he wished to know whether it was the intention of the board to direct that paper to be filled up ? He believed the woman referred to was notoriously pro fligate. (Confusion.) The CHAIRMAN-But, Mr. Smith— Mr. SMITH—I want to know if we are to stand god father to her? The CHAlRNtAN—Anything you have got to say would have been all very proper before she was appointed. Now that she is appointed, you say that she has this character ; and it is your duty to bring forward specific acts of profligacy, and then we can deal with the matter, but we cannot allow the character of a woman to be run down upon your ipse A GirktimAN--Mr. Smith has already been convicted of. making false charges. (Hear, hear.) Mr. S:eurru— . l do not object to the election, but I object to giving her a character. The CHAIRMAN—You must make a specific charge. Mr. SMITH—T am told, on authority which I entirely believe, that she was in this house when the former master—(uproar)—l am going to tell you A GUARDIAN—We don't want to hear it. The CHAIRMAN—Mr. Smith, you and I will have to sit here till the end of this year, and I want to make make you understand our relative positions. If you have any charge to make against the' woman, put it 'in writing—give a fortnight's notice of it, and we will have aboard summoned to investigate the charge ; but I do object to charges ofthis sort being made against a person in general terms. •-• Mr. SMITH—Very proper, indeed; and if it were the practice of this board to go thtis regularly to work, it would be all the better. But will you defer the filling up of this paper for a fortnight? the woman is in the house. Is she to be there a fortnight, when she is not fit -to be there an hour ? (Cries of " Order," and confusion.) • The CHAnimAN,---I believe the woman has an excel lent character. Mr. SMITH- - --You did - not give Mr. Shaw a fortnight's notice, and you only brought the matter against him because he assisted me.. (Laughter.) Mr. J. ED WA.RDS —Assisted you! Assisted you in all your roguery. (Loud laughter.) It is a pity Mr. Smith and Mr. Shaw are not expelled from the board. (Hear, hear.) The CHAIBMAN suggested that if Mr. Smith continued to interrupt the proceedings the board should send him a memorial, asking him to stop away. (Laughter.) Mr. SMITH, who is rather deaf, asked what the chair man said, and his neighbour, amidst considerable laughter, informed him that the guardians were going to sign a memorial to him, asking him to stop at home. The remainder of the business was unimportant. THE DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1860. TRIAL FOR 11ifRiitR, A♦ND,SENTEIstQE'OF DEATH ON A GIRL 16 YEARS OF AGE... LErtnsimi.idly (tefore Mr. Jtistice Wightman.) Harinaii Hollins, aged 16; pleaded "Net to an indictment charging her with the wilful murder of Samuel Wells: . 'Mr. Merewether and Mr. Sergeautt appeated as counsel for the prosecution; Mr. O'Brien and Mr. R Palmer for the prisoner. From the statement made by the learned counsel who opened the prosecution, and from the evidence by which it was supported, the facts of the case . appeared 'to be substantially these : —The prisoner had lived as a domestic servant from Martinmas to April last, in a house inhabited by the deceased man, Mr. Samuel Wells, who was 60, years of age, and farmed his own land at Soagrave. One of his sons, Thomas J. Wells, and his wife, 'occupied a portion of the same house, but their meals were taken separately from Samuel Wells, the prisoner acting as the servant alike of him and the young couple. She did not, how ever, live on good terms with the former ; there were constant altercations between them, and on several occasions the prisoner had expressed a dislike to him, saying at one time that she hated him, and "wished the old devil was dead." These differences had not, how ever, become so great as to induce either her master or herself to determine the service by notice. On Thurs day, April !6, she was sent to Mr. Henry John Wells, another son of Samuel, living at Seagrave-lodge, about a mile from his father's, for a lb. packet of arsenic, Which was handed to her unopened, and having on a label which it was proved the prisoner read, and which bore the words "Poison, beware !" This packet sbe delivered to her master, Mr. Samuel Wells, togetker with a bag of offal corn, given her at the same time, and he took a small portion of the arsenic from thd packet with a knife and mixed it in a basin with the corn to poison sparrows. He then tied it up, put it into a bag, and gave it to the prisoner to take back, which she did, but not until she had taken from it between loz. and 11oz. The deceased, Samuel Wells, was in the habit of supping on gruel, and about eight o'clock on Friday, the 27th April, while his sou and daughter-in-law were at supper, be desired to have some, which the prisoner was told to prepare. She did so, and Mrs. Wells, who was looking on at the time, noticed nothing improper. When made the deceased put some bread into a basin, and the prisoner poured the gruel upon it. He remarked that the gruel was thick, and when he had eaten half of it said that he did not know how it Was he couldn't get through it, and presently told the prisoner to take it away, and she took it into the dairy which adjoined the kitchen. Shortly afterwards the deceased exhibited symptoms which ordinarily follow poisoning by arsenic; remitted, and could retain nothing of the medicines that were given him by his daughter-in-law. In this condition he remained until about 5 o'clock on the fallowing morning when the prisoner was called up by Mrs. 'Wells and told that her master had been very ill. The prisoner inquired, " Do you think hell die?" Mrs. Wells answered, "No. T don't think he'll die, Ann, but he has been very ill. Lie down a bit, and attend to your master if he rings." Mrs, Wells heard her afterwards go to the deceased, and upon her coming back and saying that ho was no better, she told the prisoner that she was 'to go to Mr. Downey (a surgeon living two miles off, at Sileby) to come. This was about 6 a.m. on Saturday, April 28. She reached Mr. Downey's between 7 and and informed him that Mr. Wells had been very sick, and swelled, and purged a good deal,. and said that she had been told to desire him to send something to do him good. Mr. Downey replied that,he must see him, and he accordingly went, and on arriving about eight o'clock a.m., not then suspecting poison, gave the deceased rhubarb and magnesia draughts, which seemed to benefit him, as he was afterwards able to take some toast and water, though he could oat nothing. About two o'clock on the same day, Thmnas Wells came home, and was informed by his wife, that she had, on going into the yard, found two chickens nearly dead, and two others " very bad." One fowl and two chickens died, and, on cutting open one of their craws, Mrs. Wells found slime and .what seemed like sopped bread, and was supposed to be a portion of the vomit of Samuel Wells, which the fowls had picked up. About seven o'clock on the same evening, Mrs. Wells proposed that her father-in-law should have some thin gruel, and she herself put some water on the fire to boil, and mixed some thickening, but, as she had completed this part of the process before the water boiled, she Placed the basin with the thickening on a ledge, and sat down to read a newspaper ; on hearing the water boil, she told the prisoner to finish making the gruel, to do which it was unne- cessary for her to leave the fireplace. However, from a statement which she afterwards made, it appeared that with the newly-made gruel she mingled what was left of that which the deceased had partaken of on the previous night, and which she had put into the dairy. The dairy adjoined the kitchen, and the prisoner had ready adeess to it without being exposed to the observation of Mrs. Wells, who could not, from her seat by the kit chen fire, see into the dairy. When the prisoner had mixed thegrtiel, Mrs. Wells took it upstairs to the deceased, but ns he would not take it, she took it. downstairs, and said she would eat it herself. The prisoner upon this exclaimed, "Don't eat it, mistress; I will keep it hot for him. I wouldn't be at the trouble of making more." Mrs. Wells answered that she wouldn't keep it hot for him, for if he wouldn't eat it while it was thin, he * wouldn't eat it when it was thick. A little boy of five years of age came in at that instant and wanted to have some of the gruel, upon which the prisoner interposed, saying, " Don't let him have any; he's all humoursome ways : he wants to taste everything he sees." How ever, the gruel being on the table, the little boy got to it and tasted it ; and his mother beginning to cat some, the prisoner again endeavoured to pre- vent her, saying, " How silly you are, mistress ; I would keep it hot for him." Mrs. Wells, however, ate of it. and re:narked that the gruel had a disagree able taste, which she attributed to the prisoner having put the toast too near a log of wood on the fire. The prisoner tasted a very small portion, and by her tui_ tress's direction, and in her presence, put the rest into the dog-trough. Soon after taking the gruel, Mrs. Wells perceived her lips smart, her tongue tingle, and her throat become hot, and the little boy also complained of his mouth hurting. Thomas Wells came home at three o'clock, and being informed of what had occurred, and suspecting that there must he poison in the oat- meal, he ordered the girl to fetch hack the gruel that was in the dog-trough. This she did, and it was buried by Wells in a manure-heap, but was suhse- quently taken from it, and was found upon examination to contain arsenic.- The prisoner recommended that the oatmeal should he buried, but this advice was not regarded, but it was locked up, and when subsequently examined presented no traces of poison. Soon after the children of Mrs. Wells bad boen put to bed she beard her little boy crying, and brought him down vomiting by he way. She then again sent for Mr. Downey, and was herself soon afterwards attacked with vomiting. Mr. Downey came and administered medicine to the elder Wells, Mrs. Wells, and the boy, but the sickness of the two latter continued throughout the night, and both expe rienced violent pain until three a.m. of the next day. Their vomit was kept carefully, and both it and the gizzards of the dead chickens were afterwards subjected to the usual tests, and were found to contain arsenic. On Tuesday night, the Ist of May, Mr, Downey and Dr. Eddowes together attended the deceased, having agreed as to' the treatment which was to be followed ; but he died on Friday the 4th of May. A post otortent examination of his stomach and intestines showed a high state of inflammation, the lips were found to be excoriated, and other indications of an irritant poison were presented, which the medical wit.- nesses did not doubt was arsenic, and the fause of the deceased's death. Poisoning by some person being strongly suspected before the death of Wells, the prisoner was taken into custody upon a charge of administering arsenic with intent to kill her master. She' said she was sure sDe .did not do it, hat was con veyed to the lock-up at Loughborough, and while there was observed by the woman who was set to keep her company to be writing and doubling down a piece of blotting paper over each line as she penned it. The paper when written was taken from her by the wife of a sergeant of police, and contained the following letters, which she said were in her handwriting, and both of which she intended to send to her father : "Loughborough. "My dear Father and Molhery—l now write these few lines to you, hopeing they will find you quite well, as it leaves Me at this time. I hope you will excuse what i am goin to say, but it is no use try to conceal it any longer. 1 have trewly repented it, and 1 shall pleed for mercy ; i dig it, and shall never feel harpy any more until the moister is better. 1 never once thought of suNi a thing until l sent me up to the lodge for the Arsenick, but I have trewly repented since i did it, but if you. will go to him and ask him to forgive tue and not press the case, never any more, as long es i live, will I de sutch a thing ; so i trust bewill be mersyfnll to me, as I did it, and do repent, but there is unregarded moments for all; so no more from me at this .time. • "I remain, your affectionate daughter, " HANNA!!

I should be allowed to see you, if you please, before you go before the Bench.. ' HANNAH HOLMES. The envelope was addressed " Mr. F. Holmes, Cos sington, Leicestershire:" The prisoner made several statements subsequently to her being in custody. She had, she said, put by the gruel made for the deceased on the first day in a basin on a shelf, and put it in the gruel that was made the next day, as they were so near she dare not throw it away: She more than once declared that she had done it, but she did not know why. And she told her com panion in the cell, speaking of the charge against her, that they didn't know the bottom of it, nor they never would. When informed of her master's death she _ e said, and hasl never intended to k - ill him. She had Taken the arsen i c out o f t h e pac k et and put a 1.. , ~„-.. de it i n t o h er master ' s gruel ; adding that, if she had not told, it iiiotild ba - vo been laid to her young maste r , At' the cloS e of ,The else for the firosecettion, !Mr. O'nri en a dd ressed the jury on lichalf oi' the prisoner, contendin g tha t the circumstances would justify them in finding by th e i r verdict t h at the prisoner was not guilty of the capital offence of murder, but of ..2,u seemed greatly affect e d. Sh e cou ld scarce l y b e li eve it, spoonful 'and mistress: manslaughter only. The arsenic had Come int o h er hands accidentally, and nothing had occurred likely to induce in her the settled purpose to murder her master, the principal grievance of which she had complained being that she was kept from church. What she had written in the strictest confidence, and when she was not aware of her master's death, and apparently not conscious of the dangerous effect of the poison she administered, showed that the dreadful thought of murder had . never crossed her mind. The question for the jury was principally that of intent. An act passed in the present session of Par liament had made a distinction between the criminality of administering a noxious . 'drug with intent to do grievous bodily harm. If her intent was merely to annoy, and give the poison with that intent alone she had caused the death of the deceased, she would be guilty only of the crime of manslaughter. The second administration was probably accidental. The statement made by her in her agony of oiled should not weigh with the jury, and apart from that the evidence ren dered it not improbable that, as it, was proved the same saucepan and bas - in were. used on the second occasion as do the first, the poisoning of the last made was not by - design. I The learned Judge, in summing up the evidence, indicated the importance, as to the question of intent, of the inquiry which the prisoner had made of her mistress respecting the likelihood of her master's recovery, and of her having afterwards, when informed that he was likely to recover, put the remaining portion of the poisoned gruel into that which was being newly made. He left it for the jury to consider whether the prisoner administered arsenic to the deceased ; whether he died from the effects of arsenic so administered ; if so, whether she knew it was likely to cause death, and administered it with an intent to kill, or with an intent to do grievous bodily harm. If either, she would be guilty of murder. But if she administered it merely with an intent to annoy or slightly injure, and not to do (grievous bodily harm or to kill, she would be guilty of manslaughter only. The jury, after retiring for a short time, returned into court and returned a verdict ofguilty, with a strong recommendation to mercy on account of the prisoner's youth His Lordship then put on the black cap, and in a very solemn manner addressed the prisoner, whose expressed contrition he trusted was sincere, and, observing upon the heinousness of the crime of which she hail been con victed, and the manner of which was the worse because it showed deliberaCmn, he counselled the prisoner to prepare for the penalty of death. which it was not in his power to remit. He would, however, forward the recommendation of the jury to the proper quarter. His lordship then in due form, and amid the profound silence of all around, pronounced sentence of death upon the prisoner, at the conclusion of which he was visibly affected. KIRKDALE SESSIONS. . The trial of prisoners at these sessions commenced yesterday morning; before Lord Stanley and a full bench of magistrates ; amongst whom were Wm. Hall, Esq.. J. A. Tinne, Colonel Blackburne, Colonel Bourne, Major Chambers, Robert Theakstone, George Whit tingstal, J. G. Morris, and G. M'Corquodale. The following gentlemen were sworn on the GRAND JURY. Wm. Peace, agent,'Haigh, (foreman). James Wood, land agent, Haigh. Richard Rylands, gentleman, Orrel. Edward Alker, gentleman, Pemberton. John Holland, spinner, Pemberton.. Henry Johnson, engineer, Pemberton. John Clayton, grocer, Skehnersdale. - James Lyon, miller,.Skelmersdale. Alexander Mi ibbon, merchant, Rainford. Richard Kerfoot, farmer, Rainford. - William Middlehurst, builder, Rainford. - Isaac Webster, grocer, Rainford. William Wilson, esquire. Rainford. Richard Aincough, corn merchant, Latham. Edward Leatherbarrow, farmer, Latham. William Shah, farmer, Latham. John Walker, merchant, Latham. Robert Wilkinson ; gentleman, Latham. Hugh Yates, ironfountlex, Latham. John Young, ironfounder, Latham. . • Henry Birley, ironfounder, Haigla. In addressing the Grand Jury, Lord - Stanley said : Gentlemen, you will be glad to hear that the calendar we have to deal with is lighter than it was at the cor responding period of the two years immediately preced ing this. The number of prisoners for trial at the July sessions, in 1858, was 44; the number in July,- 1859, was also 44; on the present occasion it is only 32. On the other hand, I find that there has been an increase in the number of prisoners convicted under the 18th and 19th Victoria—that is, prisoners who, previous * to the passing of the act, would have been sent here for trial. The number convicted under that act, between the months of April and July in 1856, was 64 ; in the same months of 1859, 55; between April. and July in the present year, that is a period of three months, there have been 70 convictions:" NVe have no 'right, therefore, to assume, from the diminished number of prisoners who will come before us, that there has been any correspond ing diminution in crime. I have looked throught the calendar, and can find •no cases to present any great difficulty; but, if in the discharge of your duty you find any such, the court will render the assistance you may require. ' You are probably aware of the nature of the duties you will have to perform ; you have not to try the prisoners, but to see whether there is prima facie evidence against , them—that is, evidence which, if not rebutted on the trial, would be sufficient to ensure a conviction, and if that is the case you will find a true , bill. If, on the contrary, there is not sufficient evidence, you will find no bill. The Grand Jury then retired, and the, trial of the prisoners was proceeded with. HE SATURDAY HALF-H-OLIDAY. MEETING OF IRON-FOUNDERS, A meeting of iron-founders .was held last night, in the Stanley-hall, Richmond-row, the object being to consider the steps to be taken to obtain a half-holiday on Saturday afternoon. There was a numerous attend ance of working men. Mr. Dawbarn, chairman of the Early Closing Association, occupied the chair. The' CHAIRMAN congratulated the men present upon the earnestness they bad shown in their endeavours to obtain a Saturday half-holiday, for which they were willing to give two or three shillings- of.their wages. Therelwere some diffic.ulties in the way, but when these were opposed they would be found very small. He trusted, too, that the barmaids would get a Saturday half-holiday as well as them, and that a resolution would go forth from that meeting to that effect. (Applause.) He was' quite sure that the half-holiday system would make the good man better, and though he was afraid it would make the bad worse, he hoped there were no bad ones among them. .In conclusion he expressed the pleasure he felt in - being their chairman; and hoped that their movement would prosper. Mr: JAR.' CHADWICK was then called upon, and, having read the memorial—the effect of which was to solicit the matters to grant a half holiday to their ,men on Saturday, because of the great advantages . to be derived therefrom—he moved its adoption. He hoped that they would all move in this matter with an earnest ness of purpose sufficient to accomplish their object in the fairbst and most legal manner possible. : It was a• thing which had been tried in several large establish ments,, and Which was universally wished for, and which had met with general approval. He had himself experienced its beneficial effects in an establishment with which he was formerly connected. It enabled a man to have open-air exercise on the Saturday after noon, and more time to himself on Sunday. It had been urged against the half holiday, that the men would have more time to get drunk in ; but, even in that case, its effects would be beneficial, because the men had a certain amount of money to spend, and, having spent that, would go home. They would thus get home in the evening; and, by going to bed early, would probably be quite sober on Stfnday morning, and wake up wiser if not better men. , . The motion was seconded_by Mr. Roberts, and carried unanimously. ISAAC MILBURN moved the next resolution. It was, "That the chairman and secretary of. the Early Closing Association submit the memorial to the employers of foundrymen." He had great pleasure in supporting this resolution. He believed the movement to be a good one, and as such •was entitled to the support of all present. Still he would implore them to do nothing rashly ; to put away every thought, of strike ; and to remember that they were not making a demand, but a request. Tlle Saturday half-holiday movement had been tried very extensively in Manchester, and was most Successful. He could personally speak of its advantages, as he nsed to leave work at three o'clock On Saturday afternoon. They were not going to force a collection; but, as expenses would be incurred, any con tributions would be thankfully received. Mr. Walling, in an appropriate speech, seconded the motion which was carried with acclamation. The CHAIRMAN, having asked whether anyone pre sent desired to make any observations on the subject, a young man stepped forward and addressed the meeting. In the course Of his remark's be commented upon the apathy of the working men, and urged the necessity for action. He believed that in Liverpobl, as . in other leitis, the masters endeavoured to get as much as pos- .1 sible from the men, and the men tried to do the same with the master. He hoped that on this occasion the musters would accede to their request ) and grant the half holiday. '• • Air. TitolkiAS OWEN ina4e some lengthy retharks to the same effect, after which he moved the appointment of a committee, consisting of - the chairman, iecretarY, and president, and other members of the Early ClOsizig Association. Mr. William Jay seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. A committee was 'appointed, and on the motion of Mr. Samuel Johnson it was resolved that the committee should report at a future meeting, to be held at the earliest convenient time. Mr. 8REW.1312, secretary of the Early-closing Associa tion, said that the labours of the society had hitherto Lem confined to shops and offices, and the markets, and the society would be glad to work with the working roan of the town. He wanted thew all tor take the wedge not to shop after seven o'clock. in the evening, 'and to avoid purchasing at any shop that kept late h;ours. If they valued the early-closing movement in their own workslipps, they should give to others that which they wanted themselves. A motion asserting the propriety of obtaining for the barmaids a half holiday on Saturday having been carried, Mr. GRINDLEY,. Vice-president of the association, addressed the meeting. and in the course of his remarks asked what was the use of educational and literary insti tutions if the workmen had Du time to take advantage of them ; and if they were closed before the time at which some men left work who were dismissed early on Satur day. Mr. BREWER said he was not previously aware that the free public library and museum closed early on Saturday, but he should take an early opportunity of seeing Mr. Picton on the subject. After a few remarks from the Chairman, the proceed ings terminated. SOLAR ECLIPSE. Yesterday, a partial eclipse of the sun took place. The sky was unfortunately clouded, and rain fell at intervals. The clouds prevented any accurate observations being taken by Mr. Hartnup at the Prince's Dock'Observatory. According to his calculations, the eclipse commenced at 21 minutes 19 1-10 seconds past one o'clock, and ended about seven or eight minutes to four, Greenwich time. The time corresponded within the least trifle of the cal culation* of Mr. Hind, publishod in tho London Times. There were two or three large spots apparent on the sun's disc, but in consequence of the intervention of the: clouds, no observations, from whhh any valuable deduc tions might have resulted, could be made. If we consi der the diameter of the sun to be represented by 100, then, at all those pl aces s i tuate d on or near a line join ing London and Liverpool, 83 parts of the diameter of the sun was. obscured ; at places situated near lines parallel to the abcive, drawn through Ditblin and Edin burgh respectively, 87 such parts were obscured at the former, and, 79 on the latter ; and at intermediate places, the magnitude was intermediate. The greatest eclipse in the British Isles was therefore in Ireland, and the smallest in. Norfolk. The point of the sun's border on which the moon first impinged was situated on the right hand, and a little below a horizontal line drawn through his centre, and the last contact was at a point on the left hand, or eastern border, above the horizontal line passing through his centre. The eclipse was attended by no extraordinary dark ness here. We may expect important' facts in connec tion with the eclipse, from the astronomers who wore stationed in Spain near the line of totality. At London the weather was also cloudy, but the sun was visible from many parts on several occasions during the eclipse. Exactly at the anticipated minute, the commencement of the phenomenon was perceptible, and. again, towards the middle and most important period, at about a quarter to three, an admirable view of the strange sight, was obtained. The light was greatly subdued. BRUTALITY ON BOARD AMERICAN SHIPS. It is the disagreeable duty of those connected with the press to make frequent record of the acts of brutality committed on board merchant ships belonging to the United States, One case of this kind has just occurred in the Sound, at Plymouth, in which it is difficult to decide whether brutality, cowardice, or infatuation was in the ascendant. It appears that about a month since the ship Connecticut, Captain Spedden, with coal, put into this port leaky, from Liverpool bound to Woosung, that she has been repaired, and is now ready for sea. The original crew, twenty-two men, deserted her one by one, in coneequence of which a Mr. Salomons, of London, obtained a crew there, who received :Advance notes, and were then put in charge of his runner, who on Thursday evening last arrived by rail, and at ten - o'clock conveyed the whole by boat into the Sound. They represented several nations, comprising two Englishmen, two Americans, two Swedes, one Rus sian,.one Finlander, five Frenchmen, one .Belgian, and seven. Germans, one of whom was from Hamburg. Ac cording to their statement, they were called by the third mate at half-past four on Friday morning, and in five minutes called a Second time. When all were on deck he addressed them in most disgusting language, and ordered them to their several duties. Charles John son, a Swede, was sent aloft to take the battens off the mainstay, but,. not understanding his in structions, he returned to deck, when the third mate took hold of the hair of his head, and pulling it, said with an oath, " I shall let you off this time, but look out next." Another man was directed to scour the brasswork of the capstan, and having placed the rag on the deck near the capstan, th; second mate kicked him, and ordered him to take it away. When he went aft to the other brasswork, the third mate kicked him to make him go faster. One man on a stage suspended against the side- of the ship, was struck with a rope while at his work. The act, however, which most exas peratedthestrangers occurred when the crew were ordered to hoist the topsail yard. They endeavoured to comply, but the end of the halliards being insufficient for all some had to wait to get a pull, when the third mate, Thompson, asked what they were waiting for. On hearing the question, a Dutchman turned round, and the third Mate struck him with his fist- and knocked the skin off his rose. The Dutchman shortly after went up the rigging and on the foreyard arm, and, l oo ki ng towards her Majesty's ships Orion and Greyhound, lying some distance off, cried out, "Murd er , murder !" and held up his shirt as a sign of distress. Thompson went to the foreyard, threatening to throw the ocher overboard. On approaching, the Dutchman took out his clasped knife, and, shedding tears, said, " For Christ's sake don't come near. me, .1 don't know what I may do." The third . mate on hearing this descended, and going aft, picked up two small iron marlins Pikes, which he *lashed together, - With the intention, apparently, of attacking the Dutchman: On the interference of the chief officer the other placed the marlinspik.es near the forecastle and went aft, and the Dutchman, being re-assured by the chief officer, descended, and went below into the forecastle, when the crew determined to cease working. The captain in the afternoon discharged the third mate from the ship; and sent , him' and his clothes ashore. The second mate went in the same boat on leave. About midnight the second mate returned and brought a boatswain, whom he took into the forecastle and introduced, using, at the same time, very abusive language to several of the crew as they lay in their berths. On Satur day morning the captain discharged the second mate, and offered to allow the strangers- to select a second and third mate from among themselves, but they, fearing that the original mates would join the ship outside the port, persisted in their refusal, and ultimately all wont ashore. They, however, first furled sails and did other duty of their own accord _ for the protection of the ship. On Sunday, at noon, the second mate was on the Barbican-quay, at Plymouth, when he offered to shake hands with the Dutchman and three others of the crew. They declined; and one having tripped him up, the four set on him and kicked him so viciously that in a short time he would have been killed but for the kindly interference of Mr. Padden, of the Brunswick Hotel, and of Vromia, the policeman, who took him into a house. Shortly after these seamen left Plymouth by the turnpike-road for Exeter One of the first crew received such illusage on board the Connecticut that on landing his face was a mass of bruises ; and it is said that another poor fellow "stole " the forehatch in the middle•of the night, pitched it overboard, .and, then lowered himself' down the ship's side in the forelorn hope of being picked up. He has,never been heard of since. , The recital- of the cruelties practised on board this ship has created a very bitter and dangerous feeling among the waterside population at Plymouth. • ARISTOCRATIC FEELING OF THE SlClLlANS.—Gari baldi and his followers have learned a curious - lesson in Sicily. Hating Roman Catholic priests, and little caring for aristocracy, they were at once brought into contact with a people who love their priests; they found monks who were patriots, bishops and archb'.shops who bless the arms of the iusurgents, and an aristocracy which, residing among its tenants, wields an influence not to be despised or even ignored. With all his demo cratic tastes, Garibaldi had to consent that %dictatorial guard should be formed consisting of about 200 men, the privatesarnong them bearing the rank of lieutenants, and the officers a corresponding higher rank. Since he would not allow any exception to be made in the law about the conscription, this was the only way to get the young dukes, princes, marquises, and counts into the army ; they are not yet accustomed,' as in France or Sardinia, to stand in the same, ranks as privates with the sons of the peasants; proud of their old Norman blood, they do not bow to French ideas of equality. If it is really true that Mazzini is in Sicily he will soon find. that the island is completely hostile to hisidcas. It was the despotically levelling tendencies of the Neapolitan Bourbons that drove Sicily into rebellion, and demo cratic levelling is equally unacceptable to the descen dants of the Norman conquerors. LOVE AND SUICIDE. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ATTEMPTED DOUBLE MURDER. At the Winchester Assizes, before Mr. Justice Keating, Robert Simpson (23), was indicted for wounding Sophia Rowe, with intent to murder her, at Winchester. Mr. Gunner prosecuted. The circumstances of this extraordinary case formed one of those recurring instances that " truth is stranger than fiction." It appeared that Rowe, who had been a domestic servant, is the daughter of a brick-, maker, named James Rowe, residing at Stowmarket, in Suffolk, - and on the 24th of last December, being out of a situation; she went to the Painters' Arms, is public-house in Sussex-street, Winchester, to assist the landlady, who was in ill-health, and there she remained until the morning of Saturday, May 12. Previously to this she had become acquainted with the prisoner; the Thursday and Friday nights preceding the 12th they slept together ; and on the Friday morning the man said he was tired of soldiering, he should cut his throat, and requested that Rowe 'would obtain him a razor. She told him that she would not borrow one, upon which, according to the girl's account, he became so unhappy that she gave him Is. 6d. to purchase a razor. He bought one, returned to the Painters' Arms, and remained'there for the rest of the day, giving the razor to Rowe, who locked it up in her box. At night, when they went to bed, at the prisoner's request Rowe took the razor out of the box and placed it under the bolster. Another girl, Rachael Welby, also got into the bed, being accustomed to sleep with Rowe; she arose at seven o'clock next morning and went down stairs. About five minutes afterwards Simpson took the razor from under the bolster, and Rowe desired him to cut her throat. He replied that he had not power to do it, and Rowe declared that if he did not cut hers he should not cut his own. Simpson asked her to lay her arm down for him to put his head on, and she then laid her arm down and he laid his head upon it. At that time he had the razor in his left hand, and with it he first cut Rowe's throat and then his own. Mrs. Wathesi, the landlady heard some noise, and on running up stairs found them both lying on the bed with their throats cut and bleeding. Rowe held out her hand, and said "Good bye." Simpson said, "This is love," and Rowe added, " I shall die happy." Mr. Buckle, a surgeon, was called in, and on an exa mination of the wounds discovered upon Rowe a very large incision in the neck, dividing a portion of the trachea, attended with much hemorrhage. The priso ner's neck was not so seriously lacerated. The Jury convicted the prisoner of the attempt to murder. His Lordship characterised the conduct of the parties as a foolish and wicked act—an offence against morals, religion, and law; and, ordering sentence of death to be recorded against the prisoner, told him that he would have to suffer a long term of imprisonment. COOL AND LA CONIC 1. - ..,ETIT.R.—On Monday the Rochdale bench, on- the application of Mr. Hartley, granted an order to protect the earnings of Mrs. Law, who had acquired a beer-shop and its stock, fixtures, Sce. from her first husband, and in June, 185 q ,, married Edward Law. During her subsequent pregnacy, under medical advice, and with the consent of Law, she went to her parents' house, where she remained live months, her illness compelling it. In the meantime Law gradually disposed of the furniture, and at length Cie goodwill and all remaining, and on the 31st of July, 1857, Mrs. Law received from Liverpool the first intimation of his intention, couched as follows : " Nancy, I am for 17,000 miles, Edmund Law." Since that Mrs. Law had heard nothing of him. A HOUSE or COMMONS CHEER.. —No persons under stand how to cheer like the country gentlemen. A cheer in the House of Commons means the rapid pro nunciation of " Hear" so peculiarly that the stress is laid upon the latter part of the word, and the sound, as it is thickened by the multiplication of voices, very nearly resembles "Tab, yah, yah, yell." A deafening shout of " Tab, yah, yah " is raised as a song of triumph over the opposite side of the House ; and when it begins to subside again, the country gentlemen burst forth in full cry, " Tab, yah, yah!" Etymologically, indeed, the " Tah, yah " of the present day is identical with the "Yea, yea " of the olden times, and with the " 0 yes, 0 yes" whirh may still be heard in the courts of justice. Only tae modern cry has it singular, pugnacious, insulting sound, and when " Yah, yah " comes in full chorus from the throats of innumerable men, whose business it is to cultivate their lungs, great is the excitement, awl the noise.—Blacktcood's Magazine. GARIBALDI AND ST. ROSALIA.—A strange idea has just sprung up in the minds of the Palermitans, and I record it to illustrate the state of popular instruction and national enlightenment where such things are pos sible. Here in Palermo all the world worships St. Rosalia, the patron saint of Sicily. St. Rosalia has a very splendid and very ancient temple on the Western side of Monte Pellegrino—a temple in as great repute throughout all Sicily as that of Diana of the Ephesians was throughout all Asia Minor. St. Rosalia is believed to work miracles upon miracles ; but these miracles she will only work for the Sicilians, and her greatest mira culous feasts are confined to Palermo and its immediate suburbs. For strangers and foreigners she does not care a straw, and they may wear their knees out in ador ation, or exhaust their breath in entreaty;without being one bit nearer the mask. The Palermitans say that she saves Palermo from pestilence, anJ, war, and famine; and that in the days of the bombardment she arrested in their course 500 bombs, which otherwise would have fallen in the city. St. Rosalia is supposed to he des cended from one of the petty chieftains that formerly ruled in Sicily, tone of the Counts of Sinibaldi. On the arrival of Garibaldi in Sicily the Neapolitan officers, in derision, used to say that it was one of the old Sinibaldi who returned to claim his own. The effect produced was exactly the reverse of that intended.

GLEANINGS FROM AMERICAN PAPERS. -- knew - kind of street-rail has recently been adopted by the Broadway Railroad Company, Yew 'York, which obviates the objections made to that in ordinary use, for obstructing the free driving of waggons in the streets. Mrs. S. D. Terrell, of Qlyde, Ohio, tried to get rid of her husband a few days ago bysetting fire to the flouring mill where she supposed he was at work. Fortunately for him he was not in the building, and the amiable lady was arrested on it ehatge of arson. Jim Penny, a noted swindler, who is confined in the jail at Rochester for some months, has for the last few days refused to take any food, in conseqaence of an alleged attack of the lockjaw. 'When Mr. Bascom, the jailor, threatentd to' knock out two of his front teeth, to allow the insertion of a pipe into his mouth, by way of which food should be given him, the fellow yielded. SINGCLA.R PHENOMENON.—During a thunder shower at Providence, a short time ago, and simultaneously with a sharp flash of lightning and a loud clap of thun der, all the gas-lights in the vicinity of Point and Rich mond-streets were extinguished. USING TOBACCO IN EFFECTING A HIGHWAY ROB BERy.--Samuel Wardlow and Robert Thompson are under arrest in Philadelphia for robbing an employe on the Pennsylvania Railway before daylight one morning. After saluting him in a friendly manner, one of them threw a chew of tobacco directly into the eye of the un fortunate railroad man. The smart was excruciating, and caused the pedestrian to raise his hand to the eye ; as he did this, the ruffians closed upon him, drawing his his watch from his pocket, and robbing him of his pert monnaie. They then ran away. A HtSBAND THROWING VITRIOL TN HIS WIPE'S Face.—Ap exciting case of vitriol-throwing occurred in New York on Friday last. The parties were Mr. William E Gaw, an actor, and his wife, who have only been married a few months, but have separated on ac count of jealousy on the part of the husband. Mrs. Gaw had being living in Franklin-street, and was met accidentally by her husband, at the corner of Centre and Leonard streets. After some angry words had passed, Mr. Gaw took a viol of vitriol from his pocket, and coolly drawing the cork, scattered the contents on his wife's face and neck. Gaw was immediately seized by the bystanders and taken to the Tombs. The lady was considerably burned about the neck, and it was deemed advisable to take her to the hospital. The officers found a dirk in Gaw's possession, with which it is con jectured he meant to take his wife's life. A DOGLAS NOON AT 4 YANCEY MIDNIGHT.--The Baltimore correspondent of the Pkilade/phia fress says a good mistake occurred at the Yancey meeting on Tuesday. There being loud calls of "Toombs, Toombs," Mr. Noons, editor of the Cambria Mountaineer (Pa.), who was near by, mistook the sound, and, wondering at his sudden and extensive popularity, thought he was called for. " Toombs, Toombs," amid the clamour, was "Noons, Noons," to his ear. With feelings which can he imagined better than they can be described, he made his way to the front of the balcony, and, thanking his fellow-citizens for their wise impartiality, proceeded to make a strong Douglas speech. In vain did the Yancey men strive to interrupt him. In vain was he pulled by the coat-tail, nudged in the ribs, caught by the elbow. The people, equally in the dark as himself, cheered him, and more than overbalanced the attempts of the Yancey men to cry him down. He continued in an emphatic Douglas vein, and the whispered importunities of friends and foes around him to desist, telling him that he was in the wrong place, could not convince him. So he made his speech, feeling that the people knew best. STRANGE SCENE IN A BRITISH COLONY.—A scene of an unusual description occurred in the Court of Queen's Bench this morning in Quebec. Upon the court meet ing, an oil painting of Pius IX., in a large gold frame, was observed in the most conspicuous place in the Court-hall, and within a few feet of the judges. While one of the members of the bar was addressing the court, then compoied of Messrs. Lafontaine, Duval, and Mon delet, three French and Roman Catholic judges, and but one. judge of old country extraction and a Pro testant—Mr. Justice Aylwin—the whole of the pro ceedings of the court were abruptly terminated by Mr. Justice Aylwin, who said; "By what authority has that picture been placed them ?" Receiving no answer, he repeated the interrogatory in energetic language, and, receiving no answer again, he said that he would not sit there so long as the picture remained in that place. He accordingly left the bench, and there being no quorum, the whole business of the.court was stopped for the day. It appears the picture was introduced into the court-house with the permission of the three French judges. So much for the exclusion of old country people from the bench.--Afontreal Witness, June 13. RESPITE AND CONFESSION Or THE Ray. J. HARDEN. --Governor Olden, of New Jersey, has respited the execution of Jacob S. Harden for one week and a day, bringing it to Friday, the 6th day of July. It is stated that Harden is even now writing his confession, and hat he has communicated certain portions of it to the jailor and one or two others. The administering of the poison to his wife commenced on her return to Ramsey's, and it was given to her while sitting on his knee, even during the endearments of an apparently loving wife. He kindly invited her to partake oran apple on which he had spread arsenic. She unsuspectingly ate it, remarking that it appeared to have something gritty on it. He replied that it was "nothing." There are statements said to have, been made by the prisoner involving his criminality with others who shared his affections. His purchasing the arsenic at Easton, and his using that which was about the house, are confirmed by Harden's own words. What is most astonishing is the statement that in the perpetration of these enormi ties Harden does not seem to have hai the slightest compunctions. He did them without for once thinking that he was doing anything very dreadful. ANTI-SWEARING SOClETY.—Profane swearing is a violation of divine command and a breach of good breeding. To wash one's lips with an oath is a dirty trick, an act of folly, and an abuse of language. A number of our residents impressed with the force of the above truths, and probably "pricked in their con- . sciences," met the other day at Dr. Hoffman's drug store, and pledged themselves never to utter a profane oath again under penalty of 12) cents. for every viola tion of the pledge, the proceeds to be paid in to Dr. Hoffman for the benefit of the Masonic Charity Fund of Honolulu. Sixty members have already signed their adhesion, but the amount of reals dropped into the treasury box during the first few days evinced not only the struggle with which a bad habit is relinquished, but also the honest sincerity of the signers. Swearing is a pet vice, and practised in so many ways that the swearer himself is often the only witness against himself. Success to all good things, and this among others! The foregoing is from the Polynesian- of Honolulu. The formation of a similar club in Panama would be desirable.—.Panerma Herald. ANOTHER TRAGEDY IN MTStiISSIYEI.—We copy the following from the Vicksburg Sun, of the 30th ult. : Early on Tuesday morning, we learned that the little town of Warrenton had been the scene of one of the most bloody tragedies ever enacted in the state. Dr. I. N. Selser, a fe days past, had sent a polite message, by request of the female portion of his family, to Dr. T. G. Bell, informirig hire that his visits to the ladies referred to were not agreeable to them, and insinuating their wishes that such visits should be discontinued. In a short time after Dr. Bell transmitted a note in reply, to Dr. Selser, which was deemed by Dr. Selser as personally abusive and insulting. A concert was given at War renton on Monday night. Dr. Selser attended in corn- piny with his brother-in-law, Mr. William De Griffin, a young painter, living opposite in Lluisiana. On leaving the concert they fell in with or overteolkDr. Bell. Dr. Selser approached him and asked for an explanation of the note which had been sent to him. In a moment, as stated by the witnesses, Dr. Bell drew a bowie knife, or dirk, and made a blow at Dr. Selser. The knife entered the neck to the depth of five inches, severing the carotid artery, and inflicting a ragged gash near seven inches in length. The left wrist was also nearly severed by another blow. Mr. Griffin stepped tip and immediately caught Dr. Bell by the arm, in order to protect his brother-in-law, when he, too, received from Dr. Bell a stab in the left breast, which penetrated to a considerable depth, entirely severing the left lung. Dr. Selser died almost without a groan, and Mr. Griffin fell immediately. The physician had no hopes of his recovery. The wound inflicted in the neck of Dr. Selser was of so ragged a nature as to induce the belief that the knife was wrenched around before being with drawn, proving most fatal immediate >, .
