HOLLOWAY'S OINT)IENT AND PILLS.---These wonderful pro-
ductions have now become so appreciated in every pert of the
world, that they form a compete househ,.,eld treasure; the
worst cases of ulcers, wounds, and every variety of skin
diseases for which so many remedies have been tried 'without
effect, readily succumb to their power; they act so miracu-
lously upon the systein as to be considered a complete pheno-
menon in the healing art. For this reason they are advocated
by many modern practitioners after everything else has proved
unsuccessful. Those complaints, especially which afflict the
sedentary and studious, give way, as mist before Abe rising
sun, to the influence of the Pills; wnilat external wounds are as
readily healed under the Ointment.
New Levyarioie.—THE NEW FOUNTAIN Pm r.---A greater
annoyance than a bad steel pen can hardly be met with—the
difficulty is to get a good one. Amongst the recent improve-
ments the new " fountain pen," just introduced by Rudhall
and Co., is the best we have ever seen. By a simple but effec-
tive contrivance the ink is retained in a fountain, by means of
a second inverted barrel, above the writing nib, and this barrel
can be taken out at any time, so the pen can be kept perfectly
clean without any chance of being corroded. Another feature
in this pen is, that one dip in the ink will last for five minutes'
quick writing. The pen itself is of the finest description, and
in merchants' offices, banks, and indeed in every place, it will
be found to fill a want felt by every one tip to this time. We
have tried this splendid pen, handed to us by Mr. E. T. Hall,
South John-street, and can pronounce it perfect, and we are
sure all
who use it will Rife v'erdict hi its favour.

THE ALDERSHOTT MURDER.-TRIAL
AND SENTENCE OF DEATH.

WINCHESTER.-July 16.
(Before Mr. Justice Keating).
Michael Hynes was indicted for the wilful murder of
Ann Skein, at Gosport, on the 9th of March last.
Mr. Poulden and Mr. Beetham were counsel for the
prosecution ; and Mr. W. M. Cooke defended the

prisoner.
It appeared that the prisoner was a sergeant in the
16th foot stationed at Aldershott, but in March he was
on furlough at Gosport, at the house of his father-
in-law, named Clarke, who lived next door to
the deceased. Ou Friday, the 9th of March, he
had been di drinking ; he returned about 7 o'clock
and was then the worse for liquor. Mrs. Clarke
endeavoured to induce the prisoner to remain in the
house, but he insisted upon going out again, and Clarke
accompanied him. They met a person named Brown,
who invited them to have some of the "best " in Gos-
port, and they all three went to the Rummer public-
house. Brown ordered some beer, which they drank.
Brown went away, and after he was gone Clarke and
the prisoner had four glasses of gin, and then the pri-
soner had one glass of whisky, and he then became
thoroughly intoxicated. Clarke and the prisoner then
returned to Clarke's house. The prisoner was then in a
state of great excitement. Mrs. Clarke endeavoured to
keep him quiet, and sent her husband out of doors,
as they had been struggling together. The pri-
soner then took down his sword, which was
hanging up in the room. Mrs. Clarke called for assist-
ance, and Mrs. Skein came in and tried to prevail upon
the prisoner to sit down and be still, but he pushed Mrs.
Clarke out of doors and locked the door, Mrs. Skein and
the prisoner still being in the house.. Mrs. -clarke's
daughter, who was upstairs, came down, and saw the
prisoner standing near the deceased with his sword
sheathed. She ran upstairs, called out loudly, and then
jumped out of the window. Some persons came and
looked into the room where the prisoner and the de-
ceased were, and they saw the prisoner " hacking"
with his sword at something on the floor. They then
proceeded to break open the door, and the prisoner
rushed
.out Ivith his sword reeking with blood. Upon
their going into the room they found the deceased lying
on the floor with her head most dreadfully cut. She,
however, lingered for two months, and then died from
the wounds she had received.
These facts having been proved,
Mr. Cooke addressed the jury for the prisoner, con-
tending that there was no malice in the mind of the
prisoner towards the deceased, but that he was in that
state of mad excitement that the offence amounted only
to manslaughter, and not to murder. The intention of
the party must be judged of by his state of mind at the
time. The position of the prisoner—having risen from
the rank of a private soldier to that of a sergeant in her
Majesty's service—was evidence of his good character,
and men did not at one moment jump to the commission
of the most serious offence.
The prisoner had a good character given him by the
officers of his regiment.
The learned Judge then summed up, and having
stated the whole case to the jury said,—Gentlemen, you
cannot doubt that the evidence of the medical men is
correct, and that death was produced by the injuries
inflicted by the prisoner. if her death was produced by
those injuries, as you cannot doubt, and those injuries
were inflicted by the prisoner with that deadly weapon
which has been produced, under the circumstances stated
it is my solemn duty to tell you that it is murder by the
law of England, and that there is no circumstance
disclosed by this case which by that law reduces that
below the crime of murder. It is not necessary
that express malice should be shown ; the law infers
from the use of a deadly weapon legal malice, which
constitutes the crime of murder. If a man fires
into a crowd, no individual of which is known to him,
• and kills a person he never saw, he is just as much by
law guilty of murder as when the act was the result of
revenge. Such is the law. We must not in these
cases—however much we may lament the circumstances
that occurred—we must not, in the discharge of our
duty, be warped by feelings of mere compassion, or, as
the learned counsel has suggested, by merciful considera-
tions. If you saw any reason to doubt the evidence
given, the character the prisoner has received might
give effect to the doubt ; but if there can be no doubt
with reference to the evidence, if you are satisfied that
the death of the deceased was produced by this deadly
weapon, and by the infliction of the injuries with it,
and that these injuries were inflicted under the cir-
cumstances stated, the fact of the prisoner being in a
state of excitement produced by his own act in taking
liquor does not by the law reduce the crime of murder
below the offence of murder. I am unable upon this
evidence to suggest to you anything that would reduce
the offence below that of murder, The learned counsel
has referred to cases where the intent has been the
gist of the case. But I am unaware that that has ever
been extended to a case where a deadly weapon has
been used, but I direct you upon my responsibility, that
if you are satisfied that the evidence shows the injuries
were inflicted by the prisoner under the circumstances to
have caused the death of the deceased, there is nothing
in the excitement which has been spoken to on this
occasion, produced or increased by he act of the priso-
ner becoming intoxicated, which will reduce it below
the crime of murder. You will consider your verdict,
and I would advise you in looking at the facts always
to take iuto consideration that the duties of a jury are
best discharged by adhering to the law, and that if a
jury, in administering the law, give way to any feelings.
or allow them to be warped by anything hut a conside-
ration fair, cairn, and dispassionate o the evidence,
much injury may be done to, public justice, Under
these circumstances you, will consider, if you see any
reason to doubt the evidence adduced,—if you entertain
really and seriously a rational doubt that the death of
the deceased was produced by the act of the prisoner, of
course the prisoner would be entitled to the benefit of
such rational and reasonable doubt, because it is the
business of the prosecution to satisfy the fury that the
prisoner is guilty, and in that case 124 is entitled to the
benefit of it ; but if you see no reason to entertain any
doubt that he (144 inflict the injuries, and that they pro-
duced the death, your duty is to find the prisoner guilty.
The jury having consulted for some time, one of them
said—" My Lord, there is no chance of our agreeing;
some of the jury are in doubt about the malice."
The Judge—Gentlemen, I was in hopes I had suffi-
ciently explained the law ; but if you feel a doubt, you
are perfectly right to have that cboubt cleared up.
What is called malice aforethought in an indictment
for murder is, cithee express malice towards an indi-
vidna,ls or. it is the malice which the law infers from
the act done ; and if a deadly weapon should be used,
and the use of the deadly weapon produces the
effects which would be likely to proceed from such
use of it, the law infers malice. How otherwise we.uld
it be possible to prove it ? It is laid down as
the clearest law that if a man with a deadly weapon
—with a gun, fires into a crowd, no single individual
of the persons ce,niposing that crowd had he ever seen
befo;e, if death eusues, that is clearly murder by the
law of England. If you think here that the death of
the woman was produced by the injuries inflicted by
that deadly weapon, I tell you that in point of law
there is nothing in the circarr,stanees, if the excite-
ment was produced by intoxication or otherwise,
which in this ease will reduce that which is prima
facie murder below that crime. lam unable to
suggest to you any evidence which would bear' upon
the crime of manslaughter. There is no provocation ;

if .there had been provocation, it would not have
reduced it to the crime of manalav,hter where a deadly

weapon was used. Here there is no provocation what-
ever, and I tell you in point of law that excitement
produced by intoxication or otherwise would not reduce
_ _

it below the crime of murder. Gentlemen, you endl
sit here, not to make the law, batiupon, 01 caths to
administer it, and you are to well eo;sjder your verdict
with reference to the law.i you entertain reasonable
doubt that the"death was produced by that deadly wea-
pon—that is, upon your own responsibility, if you
entertain that opinion, it is for you to entertain it con-
scientiously. But if the death was produced by that
deadly weapon I am unable to suggest anything to you
to reduce the crime below that of murder.
The jury again put their heads together, and after
some time the foreman said one of the jurY wished to
ask if the medical men were certain that the death
ensued from the wounclq.

The judge read his, notes of the medical evidence,
which was to the effect that the wounds had been pro-
duced by the sword that after somQ weeks an abscess
formed on the brain ; that matter or pus pressed upon
the brain, which produced paralysis of the brain, which
caused death, and that that arose from the wounds.
One of the jury said he should like to have the medi-
cal men back, and, those gentlemen having returned to
the witness-box, the juror asked them whether it was
impossible that the death could have been caused by
anything else.
Both the medical gentlemen said they cc.i.Ald not see
any other cause. She was never out of dagger.
The juror said it seetz,c, loan;
a time between the
injury „Id the death,
One of the niedieal men said the time had nothing
to dO with it : 'he had had a patient who lived six
months after he had received a blow on the head from
a cocoanut ; he died evetr‘al,ly from the effects of the
blow.

The Juror—lf she had been a young woman, might
she not have recovered ?

The Judge—Gentlemen, has a persou a right to take
away a woman's life becaticsa she is old ?
The Juror—AV lord, may we not give a verdict of
manslaughter ?

The Judge—You are to give your veixlict upon the
respensibility of your oaths. You are to decide upon
the evidence. You can give what verdict you please.
It its the eyidence you are sworn to act upon. It is
entirely a question for you. You have the power of
disbelieving every witness who has been called. You
nay think the whole is a fiction, but you do so upon
your own responsibility—that of your oaths, I can find

nothing upon which you can convict the prisoner of
manslaughter more than murder.
The juror was about to argue something with the
Judge, when his Lordship told them they had better
consider their verdict.

The jury then retired. Having been absent four
hours, they sent a written question to the Judge, upon
which his Lordship sent for the jury, and then said,
" Gentlemen, you have sent to me a question, in writing,
which I could not answer,—viz., whether manslaughter
does not suppose any accidental killing ? Gentlemen,
manslaughter may be a killing by accident where a
person is in the commission of an illegal act, that not
amounting to a felony, and by accident he kills another
—that is one species of manslaughter ; so if a man upon
a sudden quarrel, as if two men fight, the one not
intending to kill the other, but unfortunately does so,
that will be manslaughter ; so if a man upon adequate
provocation involving great persOnal violence kills
another, that will be manslaughter ; but the legal
offence of manslaughter never exists when a person
without provocation, or without provocation involving
personal violence, kills another. In this case the priso-
ner, in the absence of all provocation, used a deadly
weapon, which resulted in the death of the woman. I
am unable to comprehend, and consequently to answer,
the difficulty which appears to suggest itself to some of
your body.
A Juror—Only one, my lord.

The Judge—Of course you may constitute yourselves
judges of the law; if you do so you violate the oaths
you have taken. You are bound to take the law from
me, and I, upon my responsibility, see no circumstance
which would in point of law reduce this from murder
to manslaughter ; and if you are satisfied that the use
of that deadly weapon did cause the death of the
deceased the crime is murder.

A Juror—We are all agreed, my Lord, except one.
The Judge—You must endeavour to convince him by
reason. Here there is no provocation whatever. Here
is an old woman sitting in the chair, and the prisoner
with a sheathed sword, and then he is seen poking
something on the ground. I am quite unable to com-
prehend your difficulty, and therefore cannot solve it.
You must retire and endeavour to convince your brother
that he should look at the facts, and not trouble himself
with nice questions of law, which are not in the province
of the jury at all.

The jury then retired, but returned in a few minutes
giving a verdict of Guilty, but most strongly recommended
the prisoner to mercy.

The learned Judge having put on the black cap,
addressed the prisoner— Michael dynes, you have
been convicted of the crime of murder, and it was im-
possible that the jury, upon' reflection, could find any
other verdict upon the evidence laid before them.
Your case is, indeed, a sad one. Yon might have
been fitted for better things, but, unfortunately, by
giving way to intemperance upon this occasion, you
were incited to the commission of a crime which forfeits
your life. The liquor that you took appears to have
reduced you to the state. of a frantic being, and the
sword which was entrusted to you to use against the
enemies of your country you employed in depriving
an aged, a helpless, an unprotected woman of the few
remaining years of her life. The jury have accompanied,
their verdict by a strong recommendation to. mercy.
I have no discretion to give any effect to such a
recommendation, and let me entreat you not to be san—
guine that even that recommendation addressed to the•
Throne will, when the circumstances are known, as they-
must be, have the effect of saving your life. As it is, I.
have no discretion but to pronounce upon you the sen-
tence which the law awards to such a crime. It is not
my sentence, but the sentence of that law. The learned.
Judge then passed upon the prisoner the awful sentence-
of death.

The prisoner, who is a remarkably line man, and.whoa
had stood up firmly during the trial, now seemed com-
pletely prostrated, and would have fallen if not supportedi
by the officers of the prison.

HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE EDWARD'
OF SAXE-WEIMER IN HAMMERSMITIT
POLICE COURT, AS A DEFENDANT.

His Royal Highness „Prince Edward of Saxe-Weirnar
attended before Mr. Ingham, to answer the summons
of Mr. Willing, the lessee of the Kensington turnpike
trust, for unlawfully passing through the Kensington►
gate with a chaise, drawn by one horse, without pa)ing
the toll.

The questica involved is of great importance. to, the'
officer& in her Majesty's service. Hit Royal Iligimess,
who sat upon the bench, was undefended,

James Fawcett, a collector at the Kensington-gate,
stated that on Saturday, the 3Cith ult., his Royal High-
ness drove up in a four-wheel chaise, with one horse,
and upon witness demanding 3d. toll he pleaded am
exemption that he was going on duty as an officer int
her Majesty's service. His Royal Highness was dxessedi
in uniform, hut it was the practice of all officers in her
Majesty's service to pay the toll when driving in their:
private vehicles.

His Royal Highness, in answer to the ease, said he•
claimed exemption under the Mutiny Act, passed, this.
year. He was on his way to sen,sington Berracks, and
therefore he claimed the ex,emptiun,

Mr. Ingham inquired; g the r•.ehicle belonged to her
Majesty.

His Rap) Highness said it belonged to him, and
produced, a, correspondence with the War Office upon
the subject; and the opinion of the Adjutant-General
was, that all officers on duty, when passing in private
vehicles, were exempt from toll.

Mr. Ingham thought the exemption did not apply to.
carriages, unless belonging to her Majesty, or employed
in her service. If his Royal Highnesa had, been riding•
on horseback, then the question might have been ik
different one.

His Royal Highness Rtes, then; ordered taps)" 3d. the
toll, and 2s. costs.

THE DEAD MONDE AND THE DE3II-M'llotMe We
accuse the fine young. English gentlemen of permittinf;,
practising, and festering a lax system of demeanorar in
public which, is capable of producing very seriow, results
on society.. They are becoming much more emulous of,
the soeiety),
making the acquaintance and frequentingeven in public, of certain Persons—we find them riding
with them in the Parks, and scarcely avoiding the recog-
of their more reepectable friends—we see them
desnendfrut their mother's box at the Opera to exchange
persiflage with notorious individuals—me detect them
rising from their chairs in Rotton-row, by the side of
Lois and Aspasia, to chat with Lady Alice or Miss
Fanny over the rail—in, abort, avoiding no opportunity
of admitting, even irk the presence of their nearest and.
dearest, an intirr4.4 which &least should be. concealed,
and priding themselves, as it were-..what a, source. of
pride !---on, that being the style they, prefer, the tone
that has, the surest attraction for them. Can ttey
possibly be blind to the evil of all this ry
'can i'tey not
perceive that they must reflect back upoe.
the society
which they re-enter the tone which th-
y acquire from,
such impart sources; and would ttey _ wish their
really
sisters and cousins to adopt such a hue ? We fear
such a hue is already net 'slow of adoption, We con-
tinually hear the remark that "none but the fast girls
get on," and 'we know that nothing is more common
now than for the " fast girls" to he perfectly conversant
with the persons, names, nioknames—even the personal
habits and pursuits of their rivals. The only remedy
for all this, we believe, rests with the heads of society
themselves. We appeal to. the granules dahies of Eng-
land to, sednlously set their faces against that which
assuredly is a foul stain on our social system. They
have the power, far fashion has weapons of surer avail
than eloquence or even satire. Were half a dozen
leading lociies to decline the acquaintance of, or refuse
the:',r hospitality, to, those sinning in the manner we
have been endeavouring to reprobate, at the same time
openly avowing the reasons for their conduct—were
young ladies to consider, and show that they consider it
pollution to he included in the attentions vouchsafed to
these whom they unfortunately cannot misunderstand,
we should very soon find a more manly decency of
demeanour, a purer tone of sentiment, characterising
the lives of the rising generation. They would no.
longer openly court their mistresses in the presence of
their sisters—no longer expose their impudent folly to.
the gaze of their mothers, or those who may one day be
the mothers of their children. Such things were not
done even under the dissolute sway of the Regent ; they
certainly should not be done in the respectable reign of
Victoria.—Morning Post.
