the man who was found murdered in Little Chesterfield.
street. Upon the but oocuiou, afted the man Devise had
been committed from the police-court to Newgate on the
charge of murdering the deceased, the jury expressed their
determination to adjourn, in order that the prisoner might
be brought before them, at the same time requesting the
coroner (Dr. Lankeste.r) to write to the Home Secretary foe
his pernissiou to that effect. Dr. Lankester then said be
could not see what object the jury could have in view, as
he thought there was sufficieet evidence for them to
go npoo. He doubted very. much whether Sir George
Grey would accede to their request ; but still he
would write to him and forward it. Last night, upon the
reassembling of the jury, the coroner said that as the pri-
weer was already ceminutted by the magistrate for murder,
he did not see the necessity for his being forthcoming
before them. Several of the jurymen expressed their die-
utiafaction at the refusal of the Home Secretary, and said
that they considered that it was only justice to the pri-
soner that he should be present to hear what was stated
against bun. The evidence which has already appeared
I fully was them read over, with some few additional par-
ticurs la; alter whichthecormier summed up. The jury, after
retiring for a abort time, returned, and the foreman said—
The jury hod a verdict of wilful murder against Arthur
John Devine, and at the same time wish to express their
disaitidection at the conduct of the Home Secretary in his
nut allowing the prisooer to have been brought before them."
