Kr. Ballanttne, who with Mr. Parry, was instructed to
Wend the prisoner, applied to his lordship to postpone the
trial of the prisoner until the next session.
Mr. Bodkin, who appeared for the prosecution, uid he
had no objection to the proposed adjournment of the trial,
and his lordship accordingly gave directions that it should
stand over to the cut session.

Alexander Lorry, who was convicted yesterday of the
manslaughter of his wife, was brought op for judgment.
Mr. Justice Earl told the prisoner, in passing sentence,
that although the jury hal acquitted him of the more serhus
crime, and had only found him guilty of manslaughter, yet
there could be no coubt, that the act committed by him was
one of great aggravation, and very nearly approximated to
the tense of murder. Under these circumstances, he felt
that his duty compelled his to pus a severe sentence upon
his, which was that he be transposted beyond the seas for
fifteen years.
