WESTMINErI'ER.

Directly Mr. Ingham took his seat on the bench,
Mr. Wempe Jobson, addressing him, said :—I won't
apologise for my shabby exterior, because if your wor-
ship peruses the papers of this day you will fund
that it is no fault of mine that I appear in this
miserable plight, but of the magistrates of the House of
Correction, who so sent me out after my own clothing had
been destroyed by fire there. My state of external filth,
however, is insignificant cod unworthy of notice compared
with the loathsome filth within the walls of that gaol, al
which 1 feel it my duty to complain on public grounds.
After my incarceration in the gaol for months I was afflicted
with two loathsome diseases. With these I must have
been infected by the filth of the prim:ere' clothing. As the
existence of such diseases is calculated to destroy the happi-
ness of many a circle, I must repeat my hope that for the
benefit of others this may obtain publicity. I now will
proceed to the subject of a more material complaint. I was
here a few days ago applying to Mr. Arnold, and it is at
hie request and by his directions that I apply here to-day.
1 have come for redress spinet Mr. Disraeli. When I was
here before I told Mr. Arnold that I should want to make
him a witness, and he therefore referred me to u. The
perjury of Mr. Benjamin Disraeli is to be found In • letter
having the seal of the English Exchequer, and written by
Mr. C. Ryan, the private secretary, I believe, to Mr. Dis-
raeli. I produce the letter ; you will see it been the seal
of the British Exchequer. The letter, addressed to Mr.
Wemyss Jobsoo, bore date the Slat of May, 1868, and had
been directed to Nasau-street, New York. It thanked
Mr. Jolson for his article in the Democratic Review on Lord
Palmerstoo, and was signed "Charles L. Ryan," and pur-
ported to be written by the directions of the then Chan.
sailor. Mr. Jobs= continued : I produce this letter to ova-
tradict Mr. Disraeli's statement that no letter bad ever
been written to me by him or by his authority. This letter,
perhaps, would have been trifling bad it stood alone •
but there are other matters on which I ground my applies!
tiona for • warrant for perjury against him. When Mr.
Disraeli was here on the occasion of my being charged with
libelling a Scotch baronet, with whom I am unfortunately
related by marriage, he said that I was a very bed chant.-
ter, and had written him • hundred threatening letters,
while I most positively declare that I never wrote him one.
When he got me sentenced at the Old Bailey a fortnight
after, he increased the number of lotion to one hundred
and seventy. That was when I was tried for writing • few
paltry verses, which SirPames Perpern himself published,
and for which I received two years' unprioonment. Look
at those charged with libel in another country. Louis Na-
poleon treats them as gentlemen, not as pickpockets, and
that was how I was treated. Mr:Disraeli also charged me
with to conducting myself at the British Exchequer that be
was obliged to order the clerks to turn me to the door, and
I never was there in my life.
Mr. Ingham said he could do nothing in the matter.
Mr. Jobson then withdrew.
LAMBETH.

Constance Wilson, alias Catherine Taylor, was brought
upon remand, charged with baring caused the death, by
pomp, of Mrs. Boma, in April, 1856 of Mrs. Ann Atkin.
sob, in April, 1860, and of amen named Dieksoo, with whom
she had cohabited for some time. The particulars of this
Clie have appeared from time to time.
A lengthened report of Dr. Nunnely was put in and
read, in which he detailed the analysis he had made of
portions of the contents of the body of Ann Atkinsoo, and
the conclusion he had come to was that death bad not been
mused by arsenic, but by some other irritant poison.
There was an absence of any appearance of disease in the
body to account for death. Arsenic administered in quan-
tities could be discovered for two years after death, but a
vegetable poison could not. Colchicum wine would produce
syittras such as the deceased had experienced, and it was
a I which could not be discovered after a short time.
r. Swains Taylor was then called, and his report as to
the death of Mrs. Baynes was read. The result at which
be arrived by analysis was that there was no trace of mine-
ral or metallic poison. No vegetable poison could be dis-
covered after a period of six years. What he had stated
was not inconsistent, however, with the fact that the de-
ceased might have died from some irritant vegetable poison,
but the proof of that fact must rest upon other branches of
evidence. Dr. Taylor said he could not form any opinion
as to the cause of the deceased's death. He bad found a
tree. of mercury in the body, but be had been informed by
the medical gentleman who attended the deceased that a
dose of calomel had been administered to her some days
before her death. In analysing a portion of the contents of
the body of Mrs. SCSIIIOI he had found no trace of arsenic,
antimony, or mercury. He should ham expected to find a
trace if such poisons had been taken within fifty-two hours
of death.

The witnesses were bound over to appear at the serious
to be held on the 22nd of September.
The prisoner was then remanded for the completion of the
evidence.
