TRIAL OF PELIZZIONL

After our report left yesterday, Mrs. King and
her banned and several other Miasmal were examined,
the evidence of nearly all of them being at minims in some
essential pints with their depositions before the magistrate.
Richard Powell, • polioenoustable, proved that when
he went to the Golden Anchor the prosecutor, Rehbeck,
said to him, "Oh, Mr. Fowell, lam stabbed." He asked
him by whom, and he said by the primmer • the latter
made no reply, and witness took him into custody.
Crow-examined—At this time witness was not aware that
Harrington had been stabbed. He did not find any knife ;
but • knife was afterwards shown to him by Inspector
Potter. That knife, he believed, had been pied up near
the Bordessa public-home, which was a very short distance
from the Golden Anchor. Be did not know that this knife
was not produced when the pawner wee pat upon his
trial for murder. Witness was missed is searching for
other person. in connexion with the murder besides the
prisoner, and one of these as was the man whom he
since had known as but he would swear that be
was never told that he was • man who actually committed
the murder. He did not tell the primmer that he took him
into custody upon the charge of stabbing Rebhan until be
got Dim into the street, and he made some reply in Italian,
which witness did not noderstatd.
By the Court—At the time he was making inquiries after
those persons he was aware that three people had been
stabbed.
James Reffell was then examined, and he proved that
the prisoner was the only Italian that mu in the room.
Marie Mellorship, the wife of one of the former wit-
nesses, proved that she was in the laigetslirromn, sod that
• number of Habana tried to get into the room, but the
English party prevented them, and she said that the pdb
liner was the only Italian who succeeded in entering the
room. She afterwards saw Mrs. King pick up two hats.
George Berge, • little boy, six years of age, proved that
he picked up • knife that was produced by • constable
named Beldock under the railway arch, a short distance
from the Golden Anchor, an the 27th of December.
Serjeant Etallantioe asked the witness whether the place
he toned the knife in was • place where they generally
killed the eats of the oeighbourhood ?
He replied that it was not! (A laugh.)
The witness, although so young, pre his evidence re-
markably clearly. in the first instance he was questioned
as to whether he went to church or chapel, or to school ;
he replied that he did not go to either ; and be did not seem
to kaow whether it was • good thing or • bad thing to tell
• he. As, however, he was merely called to prove the find-
ing of the knife, be was allowed to give his evidence.
The mother of this witness proved that he gave her the
knife, and that she observed • yellow =enemy substance
upon it. She also said that the piece wag used for skinning
oats, and she believed at the time that it had been need for
some such purpcee.
One or two other witnesses were then examined, and at
balf-put five o'clock the trial was adjouraed, the case for
the prosecution not having been coactsd.
A juryman, addressing the court, said he hoped the trial
would conclude before Good Friday.
Mr. Baron Cheapen replied that it was not for him to
say, but he might statethat he recollected en occasion in this
court when • jury who had been detained over a Good Fri-
day were, through the courtesy of the Uoder-Sheriffs, taken
out for an airing is an omnibus on that day to Blackwell,
where they had • whitebait dinner. (A. laugh.) That,
however, was an occasion on which the trial laded from
Monday to Saturday.
The jury were taken to the London Coffee-house, in the
charge of the officers of the oourt.

EASTER TlRM.—Yteterday the lists of the arrears
for the forthcoming Taster Term were exhibited. As
Beater Term falls this year In the holidays, a good deal of
misunderstanding exists. The legal terms are fixed by act
of parliament, and by the lit Wm. IV., a. 70, ass. 6, it is
enacted, " That if the whole or any number of days toter.
young between the Thursday before and the Wednesday
next after Eerier day shall fall within Eater week, there
shall be no natio' in bane on any of the intervening days,
but the terms shall in such case be prolonged and continued
for such numbers of day. of business as obeli be equal to '
the number of intervening days before mentioaed, exclusive
of Eater day, and the commencing of the ensuing Trinity
Term shall in such case be postponed, sod its cont nuance
prolonged for an equal mumbler of days of hosioess.” It
appears that in the Court of Queen's Bench there is nee
new trial rule for judgment and 18 for argument ; is the
special paper 1 for judgment and 27 for argument, sod of
enlarged rams 1 for judgment and 5 for argonaut. Is the
Common Pleas there is 1 enlarged rule and 17 new trial
Tula 1 postponed motion ad 19 demurrers. In the Ea.
chequer, of errors and appeals there is 1 for judgment and
9 for argument. There are 5 rules in the peremptory ,
paper, and in the special paper 1 for judgment and 7 for 1
argument. In that earl there ars oely 2 rules for new
trials. Easter term is geondly a busy elan minim from
matins heard in the Spring Circuits. &turtle next is the I
first day of term, " ageordise to act of p t," and
it will be prolonged several days, as neither the equity air
I common law courts will sit until Wednesday nut, the
19th instant.
