About twelve o'clock Alderman Joshua Jonathan Smith
tOok hie seat upon the Beech, said in a few isiestes after-
wards the unfortunate Laity. was brottght• in, supported by
her mother, a respectable old Lady, sod the parish officers.
She was elegantly dressed in silk garment% a grey cloak,
hued with piuk-coloured silk, and a Leelmes honest mid
feathers. At the worthy Magistrate's request she was swam-
anpeioded otitis chair at the bottom sif ibet table,. mad some
water 111.11 placed before her, no, from her •ppeantaite, Owe
.were apprehensions she would faint. The Office sad weary
edjuiraing were crowded excessively during Wm whole
of the day. The following was the evidence adduced es the
°whims :
Hannah Stpdd slated, that she lived 'wryest of all-work
with the Prisoner and deceased Cu, the lam fortnight, pre-
vious to which she lived to the (tinily of Mr. Delahont, the
Prisoner's father. Between twelve and ease o'clock es
Thursday ;thermion Lier mistress went out, and did not re-
turn till between seven and eight licks& in the evening.
Just before her return the deceased ordered witness to
make tea, which she did, and they (witness and deceased)
were driuking it at the mimeo' the Plummer tong the bell;
witness let her in, and when she came into the room, the
deceased said, ior, • mild tone, " I thought it was some
impudent faggot like pa." He spoke this in a jacular,
mild mauuer. Witness did slot lake her seat •gain, bet
waited outs:de the door in the passage; in a few minutes
her mistress called her, and told her to finish her lea, and
the deceased again jeered her, saying, he wished " she
had nut come •bowie, es they (witness and himself) were
having their Ira very comfortably." Mrs. Harmer re-
plied, "so you can now, or at some other opportunity,"
and then he asked her where she hail bece, and if it .
was where she intended to have gone? She replied in lb*
affirmative, anal added that she had been to Clifford's Inn.
The deceased then said in the same lone, " I wish you had
sot come tonne," and Moe. Harrner replied, " Well, I
can go again," and she called fur the shoe-hors, to pull
up
her shoes, which were down at the heel. %Titers,
gave her the shoe-hum, and tea being ended, she took
the tea things down into the kitchen. The Prisoner
ties came down stairs, opened the street-door, and closed
it with great violence, and witness thonght she was gone
nut ; but ies a short time 'afterwards, when she went op
into the parlour with Nome glasses which she had washed, shit
found her mistress stauding behind the parlour door, as ifithe
wee endeavouring to conceal herself. At this time her master
was sitting at the table ito a chair. She went down directly, and
soon afterwards she heard them at high words ; the Prisoner,
she t hought, spoke i is a loud tune, hut she could not distill/side
what she sa d. In a few minutes the deceased eltratettiiill
voile, and die plainly heard him exclaim, a' b--etc
you, I'll shout you!" She ran immediately to the stair bead,
and heard • pistol snap; It did not make a very loud report,
so she thought these was walking in it ; it made "a click,"
but nu report, and she did not believe there was any powder
in it. The deceased and his wife frequently played with a
pistol, pretending to shoot each ether, mid the noise ou this
occasion was the same, or appeared the same, as she had often
before heard it, when they ha been so playing together.
Mr. Harmer had frequently Ail, and the Prisoner
Welially vie sway from hank ailing to be frighiesed.
She al:trays thought they were Jo joke, and lllllllll.
bred the pistols to have been loaded before. On Thursday
she saw the deceased with loorilets laying before him on the
table ; he had east some or Tuesday night, so the eir-
canistaoce dad not pakiestssty surprise her. She did not •
see him put either powder or bat: auto the pistol, although
at one time he did put • ball into the ••••Pih •C • pieta iciella
she is nut certain whether he left it the: e, because she did
not remain a minute in the room, but just Out some coals
on the fire, and aent out directly. He geZerally kept
the pistols itt the parlour cupboard, but she could ant say
what be did with them after ht loaded them. After gee
bad heard the pistol "click," as already described, she
sat down at the Gout kitchen voindovt, thinking no harm
had happened, and its • few minutes heard a limit report of
fire-arms. She ran up stairs immediately, mid her mistress
screamed nut "Oh! 1 leave murdered my husband; he is
dead—res fur sorsebody—fetch some one directly,"—and
she appeared in the greatest agony imaginable. Witness
ran down stairs, and told the fleet man she met to ran for a
doctor; she then returned to the house, and when she gut
back she found the Prisoner at Mr. Crieliard's, next door
hut one. Witness then ran to her master's house, and was
followed by her mistress. IWhen they arrived, they found a
doctor in threnestour with the body of her master, which
was placed is • chair, apparently as when be bad been shot.
She did sot go further than the room door, aud her mistress j
kept is the back parlour. She you'd have gone into the t
room, but the doctor would not let her.
Mr. Joseph Brindle!, Surgeon, of Richardson-street,
Bermondsey, awown—l am • pupil of Gny's Hospital. I
was pawing up Weston street last night, and heard of the
melancholy affair by araident, I fetched Mr. Grainger, a
Surgeon, and un any return saw the bandages taken hum the
heed of the deceased, and saw a wound which appeared to
have bees made by a bullet, which had penetrated through
the orbit of the eye, and had entered the brain. Hit sp. •
peered to have very recently expired. The wound Is the
eye caused his death.
T. Ki nsey, a police officer, deposed:-1 heard of the ac•
eirlent tart night, and immediately went to Mr. Harmer's
Mule, where I saw the Prisoner in the front parlour, 'teeing
Rod stamping about the room like a mail woman. I left
Mrs. H. and we'd into the hack parlour. where- I saw the
d el; his face was covered with • handkerchief; I palled
k away, and saw that he was dead. There lay on the table
the three piatuls now produced with their cocks down. One hail
bees recently Sued, as appeared by the (deletes, of the pan and
howl, . The other two were loaded with ball, and they were
primed. I saw three surgeons its the room, •nd when they
retired, 1, with the assistance of Joseph Welch and William
Leeson, carried the deceased up stair. ; 1 took his watch

except in the darks; I then took a coach, and conveyed the
Prisoner to the Borough Consider.
The ufficers them tuuk charge of the house and torsi-
tore, and Mr. Bunny, the seuiur overseer of the parish,

No further evidence being forthcoming on this occasion,

In this case Mr,. Baosionast last Term obtained

Mr. Pow.K..en the instant, skewed cause against

addressed the Courtin, support 4. it, and said, his
friend Mr. Park'sgipposittou lathe criminal infor-
_motion relied entirely no. the absence of affidavits
.on the part of her Majesty, denying the diaries
imputed to her by the Defer ant. The cases
!alluded to by Mr. Park were easily distinguished

ton, the Prosecutor was charred by the Defendant
to have personatedo certajo Doctor Crowe, a physi-
cian, and to have 'trim fees in Dr. Crone's mow.
The Court in that cue refused OW Presumes&
ity..plicatiou, unless he would make affidavit that he.
did not persouate D.rctor Crowe. That was not:
uoreasonable,. the charge against the Prosecutor:
being of a clear and specifit•osture, which was not!
to he said of the present case. In the. Kivag,
v. Webster, which was .a ,charge of murder be.'
fore Magistrates, the Prosecutor's application was
negatived, because he would not answer that lie did!
not kill the Defendant. In the King v. Sir John!
Fielding, the rule was refused because the person
applying would not make affidavit that he did not
June the anonymous letter. In all these cases the
crimes imputed were of a specific nature, and not
general charges, like the present. In the case of
the King v. Mermen and Bate, which was to be
found in Douglas's Reports, 387, the Duke of
Richmond was Minister of the Crown, and ap-
plied for a criminal information against the De-
ifendont, far charging him with opposing, in his
'speeches in Parliament, the increase of the military
force, and with conveying information to the
French, and doing other acts to facilitate the descent
of the French on this country. The Court in
-that case held that the Duke should negative by
iffirlovit the charges, except what regarded his
speeches its Parliament, which they could not call
on him to negative. He (Mr. Brougham) wished
particularly to direct the attention of the Court
to the words of Lord Mansfield in that case.
ord Mansfield observed, that it would be absurd
fur the Court to require the prosecutor to swear
he was not a traitor or thief—and also, when
the imputations or charges were made too loosely
and generally, the Court could not require eta
calpolory affidavits, The Learned Gentleman re-
(erred to other cues in Which affidavits were wet. Ms
wilted, the calumniated parties being beyond the
seas, or the charges being of too gross and indeli-
cate a nature. Her Majesty was perfectly ready to
make an affidavit negativing the charges, lithe Court
thought it not absurd to require of her to reply to
such vague and general charges. That the first appli.
cation for the rule was not an pported by her Majesty's
affidavit, war not to be ascribed to any hesitation
on her part to give a flat negative to all the charges,
but it was the fault of her legal advisers, who
thought such an affidavit ss unnecessary as it was
absurd. It was unnecessary to enumerate before
.heir Lordships the dignities, privileges. and pre-
rogatives which belonged to the Queen Consort of
these realms. It was perfectly incog.istent with
the dignity of the Queen Consort to come into
Court to tender an affidavit ; and, if others of his
Majesty's subjects ware required to do so, yet it
uo means followed that the Queen Contort was
'obliged to comply with that rule. Her case was
distinguished from that of any other individual;
nod if his friend Mr. Park would shew hies any
case in which ally person of equal dignity and li
prerogative with the Qneeu bad tendered such an
affidavit, he (Mr. Brougham) would then be ready
to admit that the Queen Consort was bound by. the
tame rule. Lord Coke, in page 193 of his Insti-
tutes, after describing some of the Queen Consort's
optrheerorgrarelirroxes,atisvaL7:: Queen hash many
rheuesilliall find no pledges, ref I
such is her dignity, she shall not be amerced."
And again Lord Coke says, in the same page—.
" If soy bailiff of the Queen's bring an action con-
cerning the hundred, lie shall say, in eontempturm
Domini Regis et lieginee." The Learned Gen-
tleman then cited some possoges in Fitzherbert's
Nowa &winos, page 101, and Comps's. Digest. in
order to shew how the Queen.was held to be distine
guished from all other subjects, and to hue peculiar
rights and prerogatives. The Queen might file,
through her officers, jwoceeclings in Chancery and the
Exchequer ; but lie begged net to be uuderatood "
maintaining that she could file e,r-r:ffirio informations
ky her AitysPepGrorrol in her oar name. Those
dignities were bestowed on the Queen Consort for
the public good, aud because she ought to have
rights independent of' the King. It was for a base
and alaudaroua attack oil her under those privileges
Asti dignities that she was advised to bring this ac-
tioss osild drive has the sanction of this Court that it is

the first iiistrocr, becauseabe thought she would be
descending below her exalted station in coming into

and general. Her case stands alone, without a pre-
cedent, and distinguished alone from all those cases

Couri,if this was not a case of a peculiar nature, and

the QUITO was of the protection of those who were
