EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(PROM OOR OWN

PARIS, SoNDAY EIWING.

On the 13th of December last five envelope,, bear-
ing the Brussels post mark, each containing a copy
of a manifesto signed Kessuth, Mazzini, and Ledru
Rollie, were seized at the Paris post-office. Domi-
ciliary visits were in consequence made at the houses
of the five persons to whom the letters were addressed,
bat with the exception of a scurrilous song about
ithe Emperor, found at the residence of one of the
parties, the search produced no result. It was ascer-
tained at the time, that the person who had sent the
letters from Brussels was M. Gustave Jules Jourdan,
a barrister, who, in 1850, was implicated is the affairs
of the "Committee of Resistance," and who, after
the coup detest was sentenced to transportation
by the Marseilles court-martial as being one of the
promoters of the insurrection in the Basses-Alper.
M. Jourdan contrived to escape, and has been living
for four years in exile, but in the early part of last
month he came privately to France, was recognised,
and arrested in the department of the Cote d'Or.
He was brought to Paris in custody, and taken to
the residence of his wife in the Rue de Savoie. There
in her presence a search was made for papers, and it
is alleged by the Folios that a letter to his
wife wss discovered, begging her to solicit his
pardon from the Emperor, but telling her
at the same time not to betray too much
lanxiety on the subject, for fear of compromising him
with his party. M. Jourdan having admitted that he
sent the five manifestoes seized on the 13th of Decem-
b3r, appeared yesterday before the Tribunal of Correc-
tional Police to be tried on a charge of having excited
b civil war, of having excited hatred and contempt of
the government, and of having justified facts which
are qualified by the law as crimes and misdemeanours.

He was found guilty, and sentenced to four years'
imprisonment and a fine of 5,000 fr.

It has t:ea discovered that several copies of the
above-mentioned manifesto were sent from Brussels,
cleverly packed in the interior of a large lobster !
The prefect of the Moselle has suspended the
municipal council of the commune of Valmont on the
ground that " by its hostile attitude towards the
mayor, its illegal meetings, and its obstinate meddling
with matters beyond its jurisdiction, it has produced
divisions among the inhabitants, thrown the Entire
commune into a state of trouble, and endasgered
public tranquility."

A considerable number of foreign cattle has already
arrived in Paris for the great show, which will be
opined on June 1. The Austrian and Swiss speci-
mens, were among the first arrivals. Several
droves of bulls and cows from Schwitz and Berne
were conducted through the streets yesterday by
drovers in their picturesque national costumes. The
Hungarian buffaloes, the long-horned cattle of Po-
dolia, and the sheep from the same province with
perpendicular horns of an uncommon shape are re•
merked as belonging to races totally different to any
which we are accustomed tone in this country.

TRIAL OF WILLIAM PALMER.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

ELEVENTH DAY.
SUMMING-tip OF THE EVIDENCE

- -
The excitement at the opening of the court this
morning was at fever heat. Long before the doors were
opened they were besieged by mult.tuies of persr.os
evidently belonging to the higher walks of life, and in aft
minute. after the barriers were ptsuble, the gull, r:is sod
body of the court were filled to inconvehience. Hundreds
of people holding tickets were doomed to remain °stride,
and the yard sod portages remained crowded throughout
the day by perm os wh.. clung t s the live that either hest
or fatigue would compel some of the mcra fortunca ones to
Tecate their seats.

A few minutes before ten o'cloric several of the civic
functionaries of the city of London tx.k their seats on the
bench. The jury, shr had been out fa. an Mein; in the
early part of the morning, bad already arrived and taken
possession of the bas,

The crown was represented to-day by only Mr. James,
Q.C., Mr. Bodkin, and Mr. Huddleawn ; but the (our
counsel for the prisoner were all present—viz., Mr. Serjeant
Shee, Mr. Groves, Q.C., Mr. lienesly, and Mr. Gray.
The prisoner advanced to the front of the deck as the
court resumed. He made the same respectful obeisance to
the bench ►nd the jury which had marked his c ntracce on
the former days, and he then seem d t r give himself up to
inward thought. Suddenly, however, he awoke from this
apparent reverie; the Lord Cnief Justice had btgun his
charge, and it was quite paint ul to watch the eagerness
with which the prisoner devoured every word. He
gazed with a fixed /elk at hie lordship, (who spoke slowly
but yet somewhat inekinctly,) and appeared nervously ap-
preheosive of loosing any portion of the addrea,. In this
way he eyed the judge with parted lips until hie lordship
began to reed tne evidence, aed then he seemed to breathe
freely again, and to lo ik on with cum piraiively calm indiffer-
ence.

The names cf the jury panel Levies been duly read over
and responded to, silence was cull,cl by the crier, and the
Lord Chief Justice at once proceeded to rum vp.
Lord Campbell maid the time had arrived ',than it was the
duty of the judge to explain to the jury the haters and bear-
ings of the charge against the primed r, and he must tegin
by imploring them to hansh from their minds all opinions
they may have preconceived heft ro the opening of this trial.
They must only suffer themselves to be influenced by the
evidence which bad been laid teturs them ao far as It
related to the charge open which the prisoner had been
arraigned, and altogether exclude teem coesidetatton any
thing that might bear upon the miner ,[fence incidentally
imputed to the prisoner. It gave. him gre,t satiefee•ion that
the cues had been so patiently and car, fully conducted on
both sides. Fur the sake of securing the ends of justice,
the prosecution hod been We= up by the Crown, and
witnesses brought from all parts of the country, who could
be supposed to throw light upon the project, while the
prisoner had been de fended by one of the ablest and most
saps rienced members of the bar. I t a few wordy, now,
let him explain the allegations on both sides. Well then,
oo the pert of the prosecution it was all, g,d that the de•
ceased, John Parsons Cook, di, d under the most
suspicions circumst tr en, and that the symptoms ex-
hibited at the death, c..uple d with tie c oduct of the
prisoner both before and alt. r ward' were ',efficient to bring
home to him thecharge cf having administered to the de-
ceased a deadly poison known by the name of a
On the other hand, it was o intended on the tart of the pri-
soner that he could have had co motive for such an sot,
and that the reel c ease of death was an attack of ordinary
Winos. The question, then, that the jar, had to consider
was, wheth, r the symptoms at Cook's death were consistent
with poison by strychnine, or on the other side whether
there was still snoop r evidence to show that they were
produced by natural causes. In eases of this nature they
had nothing but circumstantial evidence to rely upon,
end that being ao, the motive w'tich could have
induced the act was a lsrge element for theft
consideration. To gin with the latter branch of this the
quiry, it appeared by the evidence that the prisoner before
the death of Cook had become involved in heavy pecuniary
difficulties. A soLeitor named Pratt hid advanced him the
sum of 12,500/. upon the security of various bills of exchange;
many of thee) were ntsordne, and it had been expected by
the Irisaner that to would be enabled to meet them by
money which he claimed to be due on • policy of in,UTSIIO4I
effected non his brother Walter's life. The Prince Of
Wales Lamson office, however, disputed their liability on
that policy, and hence arose the severe peauniaty @reason
which fell upon toe prisoner immediately preceding the
death of Cock. The nature and extent of these difficultien
were fully developed in the evidence of Mr. Espin, the
clerk of Mr. Pedwick, who had also advanced the
prisoner mon. y, and. Mr. Pratt, the solicitor, to whom he
had already referred. This evidence the learned Lord Chief
Justice read over slowly, commenting upon it as be went
al mg, and afterwards Vie correspondence which passed be-
teem the prisoner and Mr. Peal on the subject of his bill.
and loan tranallo ions. Ravi, g read this correepondsnee,
his lordship ; raceeeled to observe that it related to matters
in which the prisoner only was concerned ; but now came a
part cf Mr. ['nu'. evider co and his correspondence with
the pri,o.ter, in which the deceased Cook was also con-
cerned. Tele was that part of the case which related to the
loan on Polestar and Sir.ne, and which the prisoner nego-
tiated with Mr. Pratt. His lordship remarking upon this
evidence said it had been stated that the prisoner had de.
feuded Cook out of the money which Mr. Pratt sent to Don-
caster for him, but on the other side it was contended that
the prisoner paid Cook a sum of mosey which was also
remitted to him at the same time, and that in
consideration for that Cook Fare toe prisoner Mr.
Pratt's cheque for 3751. Passing (rant this part of
the case, his lordship, as hearing up m the pecuniary
difficulties of the prisoner, next ptooceded to read the
ev.dence of Mr. Armstrong, the solicitor, of Rugeley, who
sued the prisoner fora elute, and who reerived trim him
the amount of tie cla'm a few days het. re Cook's death;
then the evideece of the Ruecicy botcher, who lent the pri-
soner 25!. to go to the Shrewsbury racesond who received the
money back again on the Saturday befcre Conk's death; then
the evidence t f John fpilekury, who also hod a claim upon
the prisoner, and receive.• i- just hefore Coi,k's death. Then
the evidence rf Herbert Wright, the Birmingham soLcitoe,
who had a bill of rile for 1,500/. odd upon the prisoner's
boron, and who bald bills of the prrsoner on, end accepted
by, his nether, coakmg the whine debt due In that quarter
10.4001.; and then the evidence of 11r. Charles Weatherby,
the racing agent, who produced a let( r hem Palmer written
the day of Ceoei death, end enclosing an cadet
purporting to he etieni d by Cork for payment of the stakes
Pal, star had won at S:lreseshury, and a's a gave other evi-
doom epoa the same subject. life lordship observed that
the cheque or order sent to Mr. Weatherby had not been
produced. It a a. re turned to the prisoner, owing to there
Whig no funds to meet et. It was act found
amongst the prisoter's pipers, and notice had been
given to produe It, but it was not forthcoming,
and it w es for the jury in the state of things to say
whither Ce.oh had sieved the the que or not. If they thought
he Aid, of C 0411•0 this part of the evidence would go foe
nothing, but it shmld not be forgotten that aei her this
order roe the document referred to by Cheshire as having
beea produced by the prisoner, and signed by Cook, relative
to the bill transaction'', bad been found amongst the
prisoner's paper., nor were they fonhcomieg. Hie lordship
then read tic evidence relative to the impounding of the
prisoner's pacer. after the coroner's inquest on Cook, and
this, he said, closed that branch of the case which bore upon
the motive for the crime. The jury must now paw to the
conduct and actions of the prisoner in immediate personal
connexion with the deceased Cook. His lordship then read the
evidence of F.sher relative to the brandy and wan t incident at
Shrewsbury, and pointed out to the jury that there were
discrepancies between the evidence of this witness, and that
of Mr. Myatt, who was celled C:r the defence. The latter
said Ccok did not leave the room atter taken V.° broody
and water, wh the former said he did for tea minutes.
The jury would a',o ot serve that F:sber spoke to having
banded Cook b. t seen 700 f. and MM. en the Thursday
morning loe`ore his death, and yet, when Coale died, no
ouch sum was found in Its possession. The same
witness likewise op eke to kenos seen Co with e
lonises book on the Thursday, and to the Vet of his having
i told the cr timer the tame morning that Cook accused him
of hawing dosed hie brandy and water. The prisoner denied
this, and added, " The feet is Cook w es d—d drunk last
I sight," but the witness declared that he was sot, and
herein again he cliff. red from the witness Myatt. His lort
