Rash—l. consider this most nafair towards me. This
wham (Hew.) has been kept beak from the time of the
murder until the unseat trial, and it was most unfair that
he should be prevented from putting questions which would
show what a bad man Its was, beaus they were not put in a
lawyer-like style.
Judge (to piesnar).—Ask the artiness if Howe ever said
that if he`asM get more money on the other aide he would
go on that ?
(Bateau Byles, having spoken to the judp).
His lordship said—Mr. Ilyles will aftw you to ask the
question you wish, and then Howe mustho stialkil, what
you an ask him if he ha ever given say daunt union of
the evidence he gave here, then it be says "no," yen can
call your witness to contradict him. Tour beet way will be
to put such questions to Howaas wiU enable you to ask this

Rush—lt is shameful ; it is disgesoeful that this should

irregularity allowed at your request.
Mr. Prendergast (to witness).—Wits paid year expenses

Witness-A solicitor In London.
Mr. Prendergast—How much did he gin you ?
Witness—Three pounds.
The witness then retired.
Rush—lt is no use calling witnesses, and I shan't all
any more, when this fellow (Howe) comes down at the last
moment rid swears all manner of things, what can I do. It
is *humeral conduct in a court of justice, but you may de u
you like.
Judge—l cannot hear any literally call your witnessekif
you like.
The prisoner then made application for certain documents
which he requested might be put in, anienget others a
lengthened pamphlet which be wrote some years ago.
The judge—Does that pamphlet tend to show your
innocence Rush : Why the police have taken poser=
of this pamphlet, and that is the thing.
The judge-1 don't understand what you mean. Do I
understand that you wish to offer documentary evidence
Rub—Ye, amuse ? I wish to rhow that what (I stated
to the jury was correct.
A lenghtened conversation took place between the judge
and the prisoner. The judge dating that certain papers
which he had called for from Mr. Cann were not adinusible
r evidence.
_ _ .

Tisliclosing the cue for the prisoner,
Benjeant Bylaw then rose to reply and alter some remarks
upon the delicacy of the duty he had to perform, proceeded to
continent upon tie evidence which had been adduced by the
various witness... And first of all with regard to Mr.
Cann._ _ _ _

Itrah—l don't think his evidence is worth anything.
Indy—You must not interrupt, sir. If you do so, I must
order you to be removed.
Mr. tied. Bytes assured the court that he would say no
more than the cue demanded, ud he would reflect u little
as dranesteacos would admit upon the character of the pri-
soner bespearlent of the dreadful aims of which he was

their testimeay wee AMON& mad that he &said prove his
ewe by &owing that the rued witness@ did not exactly
ogre, with raped to mbar point'. Whin two or three or
more witnesses gala to any particular occurrence it was
quite nflisiest that they agreed in substance on the main
bets of the eau. For In if a particular traasaction
took phase as the Castle Hill, and three or four witnesses
camels and related the peoffs, the probability would be
they would differ on miser pain% while stating the particu-
lars their teetimany would Not be considered untrue 17,110aUee

He mid then was another whams who the prisoner said he

-was Bleashflower.

Rash—l whit64llnm something about that witness.

Be:joint Bile—New there wee mother witness the

try to get rid of all the gemossding eireamstances that
wadi lur— his ildsiOcia with Magmas to that document;
thseehm all Olt joyhed to say was whether that was or wog
not Rash's Ladd(. To peeve that it was not necessary
for se to swear positively that it was the handwriting of the
prhoser, it wee quite unkind for • man to swear that to
the beet of his belief the writing was in a certain person's
handwriting, blouse after the lapse of time it wee evident a
man might 7 the eharester of hie own handwriting,
wane some hi in the documents recalled the writer s

Rush—l dispute that it has been proved to be my hand-
writing in the present ems.
Bylce—Very well. But, indent", you rood-
hett::ideate of the whams Jesse Nrhite, who swore as
distinctly es sea could swear that the signatures were in the
handwriting of the whisker Rush. All they mated to prove
in this saes was the general handwriting of the prisoner, gad
that was • point whisk he thawed would not be disputed.
It might be that all the handwriting wee not of the same
character. A landwriting in such a ease might be disguised ;
but every now and Om podia:ilia mold rip out, as they

had done In the pnuat instance. He (Serjeant Byles)
thought that the writing was the handwriting of Rush. To
that might be added the fast which he thoug was indispu-
table—that the paper on which it was written was originally
in Rush's possession. The learned eerjeant proceeded to re
ter to the books, which Mr. Jerrold Mewed had been bought
at his shop
Rush—You have never proved that those books were in
Mr. Jarreld's Formulas.
tierjt Bylee—lt had been proved that the name of Kr.
Jerrold was written upon the labels of those books. Two
books out of those three had been found—where was One
third / The third book belonged to the set and was of tip
same description as the others, although the prisoner seemed
to net that part of his case upon the fact that the marble
coven wore of a different pattern.
Rash—l never maid anything of the kind. It has net
been proved that the books were ever in Mr. Sarrold's
pus-
assaieL _

Bsrje. Bytes—lt had been proved that the name of Mr.
Jamdd wee en the label which had been taken off from the
book. As he had said before, the two books were found,
when was the third ? Mr. Jerrold had stated that the
colour of the =Age paper differed on separate books.
Bub—Why, everybody knows per well that the
pattern of all marble paper is the same.
Sodom' BON proceeded to say that all he wanted to prove
wee, that although the paper on the books was not of the
seats colour, they might belong to the same est. That fast,
indeed, had been dletlactly proved by the evidence whisk
Mr. Jerrold had given. The day-book which formed parted
that set was !ahead.. The label bad been taken off. By
whom ? That was a point on which the jury would have to
decide. Now, let the gentleman of the jury suppose that
the ease had stopped there, and that the witnesses bad sot
spoken so fully to the facu of case as they had done ; even
in that use the thing would have been clear enough ; but
they had gone further than that, and had shown with re-
n•ect to the man who committed the murders that he was of
Rush's heisht, form, size, and walk. It was evident that
the man who committed the murders did not go for the pur-
pose of plunder. It meat have bean a man who was pre-
cisely of the form and figure of Ruh. It must ham been
a man who bad a cloak like his, and It must have teen a
man who, uniting all thou coincidences, bad en to-
wards that late Mr. Jenny. In no other air than that of
the prisoner Ruh could all of those eolocldenos unite.
Than with refereese to the evidence of Emily Sandford.
That evidence formed, u it were, a complete history of the
ease. That unfortunate young woman had made the only
atonement to public jostles in her power; in fact, to use a
common, but expressive phrase, had made a clean breast of
it. He (the learned arrant) thought he might refer to the
testis', ay of the prboner himself on that point, for he said,
" Poor thing, I tun sure she will not say anything that is
WrOng"
ituk—l never said anything of the sort.
Snit. Eyler proceeded. Yon have beard Emily Sandind
cross-examined for a length of time, unprecedented, I believe,
in the criminal annals of this country. She has been before
this court for the ruse of 13 hours, every opportunity has
been given for thoroughly silting her evidence. I have no
hesitation in saying that that evidence has been thoroughly
rifted and that you (the jury) are now fully acquainted
withits character. What has been said by the prosecution
in reference to the prisoner bee been confirmed by documents
which have been found in his possession, documents to which
I she' hereafter have occasion to refer.

Rush.—But those documents ere not disputed.
Beep. Byles was glad to find there wu no difficulty in
that part of the case. It showed clearly that if the testi-
mony of the witnesses was correct upon those points—was not
disputed ; points upon whioh some slight variation had Wren
plus; the other points, upon which there NM no variation,
mittshbe tally rolled upon.
—That is an unfair statement.

conifilTirdieh;dsiow to call their atten-
tion to the story of the lawyer ; but before he came to that
part of the frubjeot, he must once more revert to the evidence
of Emily Saadford. That witness stated that on the float
and second mud= on which Rush went out he had some-
thing doubled up under his um. It was admitted by that
witness that Rush went oat at night It was further ad-
mitted by that witness that Rush not only went out at night,
but that he west out in various disguises. The jury would
find on combining the different parts of the evidence that
this cireumstanee would account for the potential by Rush
of certain articles of attire which he regretted up to this
time had not been found. Honor Holmes confirmed this
evidence to the fullest extent Her evidence completely
tallied with that of Emily Sandford. In the one cam ft
was proved that Rush want cut at a certain hour, in the
other it was shown that he arrived at Stanfield-hall, where
the murder was committed, at the hour which had been
mentioned, and the time he returned to Potash-farm had
been distinctly sworn to by Emily Sandford. In support of
his statement the learned serjeant read several portions of
Emily Sandford's evidence, referring particularly to that
hortion of it in which she stated the fact that on returung
me at night he had loot something which he was desirous
of finding. The gentlemen of the jury would par-
don him if he referred for a few momenta to that
story connected with the Scottish chieftain. That story,
he believed, had an important bearing upon the question
the jury were called upon to decide. It showed that the
prisoner had often failed in certain attempts which he had
made, and it proved also that he had determined upon another
attempt, the inn of which he (the learned serjaint) believed
formed the materials for the present investigation. If there
had been no design of that kind, what could have been the
intention of the prisoner in saying to Emily Sandford on the
night of the murders, " Be firm ; and if any one asks you
how long I was out to-night, say not more than 10 minutes."
He was sorry to advert to such a subject—
Rush—lt is not a true statement. The poor thing has
been tampered with. The whole affair is most disgraceful,
and notwithstanding all his lordship may say—
Judge—l will not hear you, sir.
Rusk My lord, I will he heard.
Judge (addreaing Mr. Pinson, the governor of the gaol)—
Mr. Pinson, I can bear this no longer. Remove the pri-
soner from the court.
Mr. Pinson called the turnkeys in the court. On their
arrival, . . _

Mr. 'Pinson said—My lord, the prisoner Bays he will be
quiet if your lordship allows him to remain.
Judge—Most willingly on such a condition; but I will not
allow such frequent interruptions. lam sure I have no wish
to prejudge the ease.
Se:newt' Bytes, after commenting upon certain points o
the evidence, said that the murderer, whoever he was, knew
Stanfield Hall well. He knew there was • side-door; he
knew the position of the staircase, hall, and passage ; he
knew the habits of the family; in fact, he knew all the cir-
cumstances that would enable him to commit, without any
apparent means of detection, the frightful crime of which he
was accused. He (Serjeaut Bytes) now came to the some-
what remarkable story the prisoner had told. (This remark
wee in allusion to • letter which was put in by the prisoner,
in which he acknowledged that previous to the mur-
ders he had a full knowledge of the attack which
was to be made on Stanfield Hall, but denied that he
was the man who actually committed the murder.) The pri-
soner had attempted to east that murder upon Joe and Dick
and the lawyer from London. Such • statemeat, he be-
lieved, required on his part no refutation. Who was this
lawyer ? No name was given : the name, if it bad been
given could have been ascertained by ref. reuse to the "Law
t.'i It would at once have been seen whether or net
then was such • person in existence. His supprestion of
that lawyer's name was then:eon easily accounted for on the
ground which he had mentioned. He thought he
might presume so far as to my that the human
dad was so constituted that no man looking
beck upon the materials of a false statement, could for any
length of time maintain it. A man might show by a con-
nected statement almost anything he pleased, but in looking
into the facts of the ease, it would almost invariably be found
that the statement, if false, would not adapt itself but apart
from the other, and thus the truth of it would be discovered.
The learned serjeant proceeded to refer to the disguises
worn by Bush on the night of the murder. It was
quite clear that the disguises had been found In a
house. In that house were toured some articles of female
attire, a wig and come other articles to which he need not
further allude. God forbid that he (the learned serjeant)
should say positively that that was the wig that was worn
en the night the murder was committed ! There was yet
ens branch of the evidence to which he must call attention ;
he meant the motive. The learned serjeant went on to
speak at considerable length on the testimony which had
been adduced, with particular reference to the pain.
phlets and other documents, which showed the ani-
mus which prevailed. The learned serjeant proceeded
He no doubt intended to take the life of both the Mr. Jer-
mys, and also of Mrs. Jenny, for he (Sen. Bytes) did not
suppose that he had any ill-feeling towards Eliza Chutney.
Taking the case as it stood, he thought he had laid before
them a clear case of circumstantial evidence ; and it would
be for the jury to say whether the prisoner was guilty, or
not. The only other observation which he world trouble
them with was, that taking all the circumstances into con-
sideration, suspicion could not have fallen on any other per-
ms, except Jenny and Larger ; they bad been put into the
hoz by the prosecution, but the had not attempted
to show that they were the The learned seneent
concluded by remarking that the jury would do their duty
towards the prisoner, and also to the prosecution.
The learned Judge then proceeded to charge the jury.
He raid—Gentlemen of the jury, your decision In this case
must be formed exclusively on the testimony which has been
given in this court. We are inquiring Into the death of Mr.
LAM Jenny, and under what circumstances he came by his
death. It has been detailed by a number of witnesses, bat
m something may afterwards transpire as to the precise
cause of death, I will read the testimony of severs' witnesses.
(The learned Judge then read the evidence of Watson
Chestney and End, in which they speak to seeing the
person in the hall shoot the two Mr. Jermys.) He thou
proceeded to say—that lathe account sworn to by three wit-
nesses ogthe part of the prosecution. It has been further
confirmed by two pima of evidence which have been put in
by the prosecution—l mean the depositions of Mn. Jenny
and Maria Blanchflower. Mn. Jenny said she was the
widow of Mr. Isaac Jenny Jenny. On the night of the
murder she was with her husbuid in the drawing-room. A
report was heard, and her husband hastened out
of the room to learn the cause. A second report
took place, when she left the apartment, and
in the staircase hall she saw the body of her hus-
band and • man attired in a disguise, who fired at and
wounded her, as also her maid, Elise Chestney. That is the
account which Mrs. Jenny gave. You -
