soiling William Cornfield. The facts of the case are de-
tailed in the evidence of the witnesses.
Ann Cornfield, who was first called, stated that deceased
went out about half-pid ten in the morning that the dinner
resulting in his death took place. At that time he was in
his usual health. About seven o'clock in the evening he
returned with Mr. Shepherd, after which he was very sick
He retired to tad about eight o'clock, when he had some
t. He slet at intervals throughout the night till ve
o'clock in the morning, when witness came down stairs (or
for
some toast; she was absent about 20 minutes, and on her
return found deceased dead. He had not complained of
pain.
Joseph Betts, a shoe manufacturer at Northampton, was
seat called. On the 7th of June, he, with 33 other gentle-
men, partook of a dinner at the Temperance Hall, to cele-
brate the ordination of a dissenting minister. The dinner
was supplied by Mr. Franklin, and amongst other dishes
was one of Mane-mange, of which deeessed partook. It was
in the form of a cucumber at top ; the foliage and cucumber
were coloured with • light green. Deeeesed retired fr
table some time before the others. Witness saw him
in the lower room, when he complained of being very
ill, and suddenly rushed into a closet, where be ,
vomited. Ile had not partaken very freely of the dishes,
but ate heartily. Witness ate part of the Blanc-mange, and,
during the whole of the night felt a burning sensation in his
throat and constant thirst. Franklin assisted in putting the
dinner on the table. After Mr. Cornfield bed retired some
of the company said they were fearful that it was the green
on the blanc-mange that had caused his sickness. Franklin
and Randall said the green was spinac or essence I
spinach.—Croce-examined by Mr. Humfreysh : Deceased par-
took of soup first, veal afterwards, and then blanc-mange.
William Porter, by Mr. Bittlestoue.—Was present at the
dinner, and sat next to deceased. Partook of the Mane-
mange, and felt very 11l about three hours afterwards. The
next morning he went to Mr. Franklin's, and said that Mr.
Cornfield was dead, and several of the party had been at-
tacked with illness. lie asked Franklin whethe
aff er he had any
of the jelly, and upon the latter replying in thirinat
witness told him to preserve it. Franklin said he did not
make it, but it was only coloured with spinach.
Charles Smith is a police officer. On the morning of the
fill of June he went with Mr. Sharpe, one of the borough
magistrates, to Franklin's shop. Franklin gave nearly halt
a dish of blanc-mange to witness. There asno form ofr een
a
cucumber on the top, but it appeared as though the g I
pert bad been removed. Franklin said Randall made the
Manc-mange, and that it was coloured with emerald green.
Randall took him to a cupboard where the emerald greets
had been lying, and raid he saw no berm
a itn using
the itborough.
Thomas Sharpe : Is one of the magistrates of
Corroborated the statement made by Smith, and added that
he directed Smith to impound the whole of the remains of
the soups and sweets left at the dinner. Witness said "It is
strange you should use emerald green, f.,r all greens are
poison.' Franklin replied " I have been told so, but we de
not tell our customers, as they would not buy it. We ha
them that it is extract of spinach."
Ann blobbs is daughter of the deceased. After prisoners
were released on bail, Randall came to her hu d
ban home
and said to witness that he was deeply grieved at the death
of Mr. Cornfield. He added that mae then an usual quan-
tity of the emerald green had been u-ed on the occasion of
the dirner, for the purp-se of making the jellies look better.
Mr. Franklin had more experience than he, and therefore
he (Randall) did not think there was any tarn in uaing it.
Twanaley : Randall had sent him to Mr. Barry's for
one pennyworth of emerald green. On a former occasionion
when when he went for some, Mr. Barry told him to tll
young man who was going to use it that it was poison.
Upon his return witness told Charles Weston, the foreman,
what Mr. Barry had said, in the presence of on
ou
11.
Wolston replied "poison be d—d ;it may be poison if y
eat a pound V it.' The portion used f^r the too jellies at
the dinner was part of the pennyworth that witness had
bought at the races. The emerald green had been used for
similar purposes ever since witness bad been there.
Barry, jun.: Is an assistant to his father, who is a
chemist and druggist. Had supplied Mr. Franklin's people
with emerald green. On one occasion witness told Randall,
when he came for some emerald green, that it was of a
poisonous nature, and must be used cautiously. In ordering
it they made no distinction between London and Edinburgh
emerald green. \Vitness, until lately, thought it was im-
pregnated with copper, and not arsenic. They did not label
powders used f r colouring " poison." They had no idea
that it was used for colouring culinary articles, but simply
for colouring twelfth-cake ornaments. They sell many in-
gredients for colouring. which are of &poisonous nature, such
as retina, which contains a large quantity of prunge acid.
C. Wolston : Was formerly in the service of Franklin.
He remained there five years, and lett about ten months
since. About three years ago he went to Mr. Berry's for
some erne raid green, when that gentlemen said " I hope you
do not use it for anything that is eatable, as it is poison."
Witness, on his return, told this to both the prisoners, and it
was not used far that purpose afterwards during the time
that wawa,' was there. A young man named Holmes, from
L first introduced it at Mr. Franklin's.
Mr. Bryan, by Mr. Flood : Is a surgeon at Northamp-
ton, and assisted Mr. Faircloth, another surgeon, in making
a poi* ntortens examination of the body of cleaned, on the
afternoon of the Bth of June. The membranes of the brain,
tie brain itself, the stomach and intestines, and other parts
of the body, indicated such symptoms as those that wouldaced
be
produced by en irritant poison, and to that source he tr
the cause of death.
J. Grenville: Is an analysing chemist at Northampton.
Had tested the contents of deceased's stomach, and found re-
mains of copper. He might have died of arsenate bf copper,
and yet there would be no appearance of arsenic. Ali oxides
of copper are highly dangerous when they cote r into the
stomach.
This clewed the case for the prosecution. MTh'rofrys
addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoners jury re
teamed a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoaers were sentenced
to three months imprisoxin rat each.

COURT OF COMPENSATION.
A court of compensation was held yesterday at the Scuiens•
house, Clerkenwell, under a precept directing the sheriff to
euipannel a epeeist jury to assess the amount of compensation
to be awarded to the trustees of the estate of Mr. Major,
deceam d, for a certain portion thereof required by the com-
missioners for the improvement of the parish of All Saints,
Poplar. The counsel for the claimants were the lion. C. E.
Law, Q.C., recorder of London, and Mr. Bramwell ; for the
defendants, Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Ballantine. The amount
of the claim was 2,1001., and the claim was made under the
previsions of an act of parliament known as " Michael
Angelo Taylor's Act." The court was occupied the entire
day on Monday in taking the evidence of a host of surveyors
and valuers, and yesterday morning the case was again re-
sumed. The jury proceeded to inspect the property ; after
which they awarded the chiimante 2,0801.

RAILWAY NEWS.
We had a rather active demand yesterday morning
for shares, and better prices than heretofore were ob-
tained, but toward,• the close of busiliess there was a
slight reaction. The precise terms upon which the
Madrid and Valencia Railway company is to be wound
up, according to compromise of the law suit between a
party of the sharcholdess and directors, arc stated as
follow in the circular issued to the proprietary: " The
sum of 20s. per share is to be returned to the scrip-
holders within three months ; costs to be taxed and
paid out of the funds of the company within one
month ; and the accounts of the company to be re-
ferred to btr. Sheriff hill, by whom all just and
equitable allowances are to be made, and the surplus
divided."

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
OXFORD CIRCUIT.—Oxronn, Jutx 18.
Before Yr. Baron Rolfe.
ItIANSLAUGUTEU.—J. Archer was charged with the man-
slaughter at John Howlett. The prisoner and the deceased
were tasin labourers, in the employ of Mr. Baticock, of
Theme, and heel: g had some trilling dispute withdrew to a
close to settle their differences in a tight, the result of which
was that Howlett sustained such internal injuries that he i
died the following day. It appeared that the prisoner was
very unwilling to fight, and this was a mitigating circum-
stance in his favour.—The jury found the prisoner Guilty,
and he was sentenced to one month's imprisonment.
MANSLACGHIER.—R. Pcuyeter was charg. with the
wilful murder of James Busby at North Newington, in the
parish of Lroughton, on the 24th of March last The de-
ceased acted in the capacity of gamekeeper to /the
Say
and Sele, at Broughton Code. About ten years
the prisoner was convicted of poaching, on the
evidetce of the deceased, towards whoei he had
ever since manifested grtat enmity. On the 24th of ',larch
last the prisorer and the dectased met at a public-hous at
t
Broughton, when, without any peoracation or remark,
prisoner threw a pint mug at the deceased. Nu fight ensued
then, but as the deceased. was leaving the room the prisoner
kicked hint violently in the stomach, observing at the time
that if he had a gun he would shoot him. On being taken
into custody the prisoner told the officer he hoped he had
killed Bushy, as he should then be hung for it, and ,here
would be an end to it. The iejury which the deer ased sus-
tained was such that on reaching home medical assistance
was found requisite, and after lingering in great agony till
the following evening death put an end to his sufferm a. A
few hours however before his decease Busby made a state-
ment of the above facts, which was taken down in writing in
the presence of • magistrate. Several witnesses were
examined on behalf of the porscution, some of wh..en stated
their belief that the prisoner kirke:l deceased unintentionally,
and intended rather to release himself from the hold of the
Penton who prevented his striking the deceased.—Mr.
gigot hating addressed the jury for the defence the learned
Judge pointed out to the jury the diatinction between
wilful murder and manslaughter, and expressed his opinion
that there was no evidence in this case to support the
weightier charge. It was clearly a case of manslaughter,
and, as the sateet course, he should recommend the jury to
find a verdia to that effect, if they were sasisfied in their
eon minds th,tt there NV,. F,l4lCii!.t tTiatllL.; to ware-.),t
them in coming to that conclusion.—Tae jury returned a
verdict of "Manslaughter," and the learned judge sen-
tenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for the space of digt,.
calendar months.—The assizes closed this day.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.— Yon', Jinx 17.
The commission for this county was opened on Saturday
last by Mr. Justice Cresswsll and Mr. Justice Erie. This
morning the city assizes were held, when the grand jury
were sworn proforma, there being no business to submit to

them.
The business at the county courts commenced at noon,
when the grand jury were sworn; Lord I-Lothian, M.P.,
being the foreman. They were charged by Mr. Justice Erle,
who observed that the duty they had undertaken would
occupy a considerable period. There is, said his lordship, a
laree number of those offences that are tumidly brought to
trial under the commission for a gaol delivery, and in addi-
tion some others—many of an aggravated di scription. The
increase of crime which appears on the tables for the year
1847, I fear, from the state of the calendar, must be a con-
tinuing fact, at least in this part of the country. Therefore
all efforts for the repression of crime in the way of preven-
tion—all effertseither by regulating the treatmen t of prisoners,
with a view to their referm—or efforts for the dissemina-
tion of education, with religious instruction combined—
become of increasing importance. With reference to
the cases arising out of the late chartist distuthaaces
rhisee
lordship said :—Thee e are offences arising, in some deg,
out of meetings held for political purposes. The first of
them involves a charge of sedition; and ycur task will be to
inquire whether the words were spoken, and whether they
were woken intentionally, with the ordinary meaning that
these words are calculated to convey. If these two fate are
established to your satisfaction, it appears to me that there
cannot be room for doubt that the words are seditious, be-
cause their tendency is to incite the overthrow of the present
government and the existing institutions, by actual force and
eiolosee. I have no doubt in my mind—you, however, are
to decide—that these words, at all events, amount to sedition,
and it is not unimportant on this occasion to inquire whether
there is not stroeg evidence indeed of some much more grave
offence. The meet numerous charges in this class of offences
ore charges of violating the prohibition of the statute
against drilling and training, and with respect
to the who.e of these charge' the queatiuu for you
will be whether the prohibition of the statute, GO
Geo. 111. and I Geo. IV., chap. 1 has been violated
There is a considerable number of charges egaimt persons
who are said to have violated this statute, and the cm. stion
will be wh. thee any prohibition is shown to your satisfaction
I to have been violated. After detailing the nature of other
offences of a similar kind, and explaining the law applicable
to them, the learned judge concluded by observing that it
is matter of common experience that though the intentions
of some of those who attend tumultuous meetings may be
averse to act, of bloodshed and spoil, still they have no con-
trol over other evil.dispored, who are for the most part
ready, when suasion offe rs, to commit crime with impunity.
It is therefore, gentlemen, that I would close what I have to
say, by stating that it is the bounden. duty of all entrusted
with the powers of the law to take care that those power*
are exerted so as to preserve tit) community from the dan-
gers of se extensive ar. evil.
PEIGIVAT TO OBTAIN A REV:ARIL—The grand iury hav-
ing retired, W. Wriggksteurth was placed at the bar, and
indicted for wilful and corrupt perjury. It appeared that a
Mr. Helmes had a ploughshare stolen from his premises,
Whereupon lit offered a reward for the conviction of the
eff,meiers. 1 he prisoner seeing one of these bills was
tempted to accuse falsely two young men, named John
Foster and John ilaerkire, who were in consequence appro.
hended and brought before Mr. Wharton, a magistrate,
when; the prisoner attended, and swore to the two men,
Foster and 11. sokins, committing the rubbery. This state-
ise,nt was afterwards proved to be false, evidence being
forthcoming that at the time of the robbery Foster and Haw-
kins were at a Methodist chapel at Sherburn, and that the
prisoner Wrigglesworth was in a state of drunkenness, at a
publie-house at Selby, six miles distant —The jury found
him Guilty, and he was sentenced to be transported for

Crmno AND WOVNVINO WITH INTENT TO DITIRDLZ:
C. Emery (60) was charged with cutting and wounding
Charlotte Emery, with intent to murder her. The prisoner
is a shoemaker. On the 21st of June he was sitting in his
shop at work, whilst the proeocutrix, who is his secnnd wife,
was binding shoes in an adj-ining room, when, without pro-
vocation or quarrel, he jumped up, ran to his wife, and
stabbed her in the throat with a knife that was used
in his trade. The prosecutrix fell from the chair.
Assistance arrived, and proseeutrix was removed to the infir-
mary. She is now convalescent.—Prisoner's son, by his first
wife, attempted to show that hie father was not of sane mind.
This, however, the surgeon and the governor of the gaol, both
of wh m had had repeated conversations with the prisoner,
demroved.—The jury returned a verdict of Guilly.—llis
lordship, in passing sentence, said that unfortunately many
parties had lately been acquitted on the plea wt up by the
prisoner, without th, re being any stronger grounds than in
the present case, out of a naustakeu view that the jury took
of the cave. It was important that people of the habits the
prisoner had been addicted to—viz., intemperance, should know
that this did not remove their responsibility, although they
might commit acts whilst labouring under sudden paroxysms
that they probably would not commit were they in a state of
sobriety. He trusted that the example he should think it
necessary to make of the prisoner would have a beneficial
effect upon that claw e persons who indulged in habits
dmilu t 3 those which had placed the prisoner in his present
position. Taking this view of the come he should sentence
the prison& to be transported for 12 years

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
Before Mr. Berjeent Adams.
The July adjourned quarter session commenced yesterday
morning. There were 80 cases of felony and 3 of misde-
meancr for trial. Of the prisoners committed, 36 could
neither read nor write, 47 could do one or other imper-
fectly.
A DESPRIL•TE PAL:NUL—W. Lewis, 31, was indicted for
r
stealing the slim of 11d., the property of the guardians of th
poor of the parish of St. Lake. The prisoner was an inmate
of St. Luke's workhouse, but discharged himself some short
time ago. The next day he presented himself at the reliev-
ing offise and demanded relief, but it was refused him, and
he was left the alternative of going for the night into the ca-
seal ward ; that he refused to do, and seeing some packets
of coppers lying on the desk he snatched at one
of them, and pocketed Ild. The relieving officer
endeavoured to prevent his escaping when the prisoner
kicked him in the leg. He then attacked➢the porter, but

POLICE.— _ Y ESTEHDAY.
BOW-STREET.—Posr-orrien KOMIEBIEn—J. Brook,
a letter carrier. employed at Twickenham, was charged with
destroying a letttr which came into his poasession fur de-
livery. On Friday last a young mm named Cobb, residing
in Queen-row, Clerkenwell, wrote a letter to his sweetheart
at Twickenham. which, having encased in an envelope, h.
dropped at the receiaing-house in Leather-lane, Holborn,
hut it had never come to band. On the evening of thehe same
day the prisoner was observed by a young female p
the almshouse, in a state of intoxication, with a quantity of
letters in his possession, and having taken oue from his
pocket he tore it in pieces and trampled the fragments under
his feet in the read, after which he went into a field where
he lay down ; the portions of the letter and the envelope
were subsequently collected, and being delivered to another
letter-caerier the prisoner wan taken tato custody. He was
committed .—G Mitchel, a letter carrier in the London dis-
trict, was finally examined and committed on a charge of
stealing a letter containing two sixpenny pieces,
broker's duplicate, said two postage stamps, the property of
the Postmaater-G eeeeeee
MABLBOHOUGH-STREET.—IaTELLeCTUAL Amuse-
NIENT.—Tivo tashionably-dressed young men, who assumed 1
the names of James Morley and Arthur Bradley, were
charged, the first with having wrenched off it knocke- from
the door of No. 39, St. James's-street, and the last with I
having rung several door-bells violently. The policeman I
who took Morley into custody, said Morley had told him he
might as well have a sovereign to let him go, as he was the
only poor devil among the lot. The policemen, however,
took him to the station-house. The charge against both
being proved, Mr. Bingham said it was at first his inten-
tion to have cant the defendants to prison for seven days for
being drunk and riotous. It he h'.d so determined, the im-
prisonment would, no doubt, have been mixed with a little
hard labour. and this would bare taught them the danger of
imaducting themselves in such a diaarderly way in the
public
streets. However, SIS be had been informed that such a
course had not yet been adopted at that court, he should not
ban begin in this i
be beggednstance,they bwould tall all tut he could assurehe fro thlic/rime young
e defendants,
gentlemen of their acquaintance, that in future cases he.
