SECOND DAY.

The trial of Madeleine Smith was resumed at
Edinburgh yerterdny (Wedneday) morning.

William St erenson was further erom-ezamhied—He de-
posed that there might be from 250 to 300 letters found in
repositories of deceased. There was a large number of them
la the handwriting of Mis■ Perry; probably one-third is
many as those of Miss Smith.

This witness's evidence showed therehad been oonsideralde
Irregularity on the pert of the prosecution in the means taken
for the attestation of the documents

Dr. Hugh Thomson had attended doomed on various on.
melons, and in portico]ar about the and of February, when
he bed severe vomiting, which witaess then seeribed to •
bilious attack. After the death an examination of the body
was made by witness and Dr. Steven. Their report stated
that death might hare arisen from irritant poison, or from
internal cony:Mimi, caused by cold or fatigue.
Dr. Steven gave the pirticulars of deceased's last illness,
and oorrolicested some of the tonnes. evidence.

Professor Penny, of Glasgow, had examined the stomach
of deceased, end fettled it contained about 88 grains of
arsenic. He had also found weenie in some other organs of
the body. Except one bottle, containing aconite, no poison
ma found to have been in possession of deceased, and if the
bottle had been fell it would not have been sufficient to
destroy life. He conridered it very dangerous to use weenie
as a caonctic.
In

witness said a greater portion of
the arsenic would be vomited off if administered in a solid
than in a liquid form. A large dose would neceeranly en.
elude many vehicles through which it might be adminiatered.
Ho could not recall any ease whine so large a dose had been
taken involuntarily.

Professor Cbrie*iaon, of Edinburgh, had examined some
white powder given him by Professor Penny, it having been
found in the stomach of the deceased. Ho found it to be
oxide of 'weenie. The symptoms of L'Angelier's case, so
described to him, were just what he would have expected in
a case of poisoning by arsenic.

the professor said that as large a
quantity of the poison might have been vomited off as wee
Ibund remaining In the body. An unusually large does
must have been taken in this cue. In cues of suicide by
arsenic the dress were generally very large, but there woe
often ea MOM at 011111119 used even in noes of murder, sad
this sometimes led to its detection.

Auguste Teammate de Mean, chancellor to the French ear
eel in Glasgow, knew of L'Angelier's intimacy with Miss
Smith. Some weeks before his death witness told deceased
of a retort that she wee to be married to some one else.
L'Ar.gelier said that must be false, but that be had docu-
ments in his powisseion which would at least forbid the banns.
He mew Mies Smith shortly eller deceased's death, when she
denied having seen L'Aagoliw ea the Sunday evening. He
quedioastl her about the letter received by deceased at

and melted ber how the could explain it, she being camel

METROPOLITAN BEER TRADE SOCIETY.

Yesterday the twenty-third anniversary of this
society was held at Hlghbnry Ban Tavern. About 300
mmalim of the trade attended. At the upper table me
beau the chairman, A. S. Ayrton, Esq., the member for
the Tower Hamlets, Mr. R. Crusman, of the firm of Mann
and Crewman; Mr. Douce, of Thorne and Co., Nine Elms;
Mr. Saunders, of Pinsbary; Mr. West, of Poplar.
After the nasal loyal and patriotic toasts had been die-
peed
The of,
CEILIIIMAN gave "The Beer Trade Protection
Society." It was at all times necessary for men engaged in
toads to unite together to protect themselves against the in-
terference of the government. He united with the
Met the =Me of Mr. Ashmore, to whose exertions they
were largely indebted for defeating Mr. Hardy's bill.
Mr. Ammons, in acknowledging the toast, explained that
the objects of the society were, besides wetclung over the in-
terests of the society, to provide for the widows and children
of deemed or decayed members of the trade. But there was
something to do in watching the bill' continually brought in
to interfere with the beer trade. The last bill
. . . .

was Mr. Hardy's, which, thanks to the interference
of the society, had failed. But they were net
content with this they had gone further, and
claimed that the trade should be plead on the same footing
as the licensed victuallers. They restated Mr. Hardy'a bill,
end in doing so they obtained friends where they did not ex-
pect to find them. They waited upon Lord John Russell.
He mid, "Why, the bill will retie the respectability of the
trade." The deputation replied that the trade wm now re-
, ',violable, and if not, what was it that made it other than
respectable ? The state of the law, which established two
classes of dealers to cater for the public for the same article.
Lord John said he would not go for ?dr. Hardy's blll ; he
would not support a proposal for placing the beer trade
under the magistrates ; and he thought it would be far
bettor if the power over public-house licenses we. withdrawn
from the magistrates. lie was sorry tom y that out of
4,000 members of the trade not more than belonged to
the association ; and he urged that to be effective in ow, sing
those measures which from time to time were brought for-
ward in the House of Commons adverse to their interest it
wee necessity that they should be united. He called upon
all the members of the trade to become metubcra of a
society whose operations were so necesmey to their interest.
The CHAIRMAN next gave "Thu Licensed Boeroellers'
Ace cum, and Success to the Fund for its Support," in doing
which he mad* an eloquent appeal to those who were in pros-
parity forthe supportof those member* of the same calling whom
misfortune, sickness, or old age, had reduced to want. lie
regretted to find that the whole body of homeliere were not
contributors to the Protection Society, but he thought that
those who did not care to unite in the association for the pro-
tection of their trading interests, were bound at least to con-
tribute towards the benevolent objects with which that union
wee sesocisted. As their trade sea unfettered by parliamen-
tary and magisterial interference, they ought the more liberally
to subscuibe to those benevolent purposes with which the
Protection Sudety was identified.
The result of the appeal, was an sggregab contribution of
nearly 2001., the largest contributors being Mans, Cmeaman,
and Co., J. C. Wood and Co., Mr. J. Thorne, Westminster ;
Memos. Thorne Brothels, Nine Elms ; Messrs. Druce sad
Co.. Chelsea; Mr. Harris, Marylebocie ; Mr. Saunders,
Twickenham ; Mr. Saunders, Finsbury ; Mews. Ashby,
Staines; and Messrs. I•rchin sad Co., Ratcliffe.
