PHIL 15. 1839,

The Learned Judge, after going with great precision
through the evidence adduced, stated that upon that evi-
dence the Jury were to say whether they believed tko
offence with which the prisoner was charged, was
committed with malice aforethought. He (Mr. Justice
Coleridge) thought the evidence that had been brought
forward had a directly contrary effect, for it showed that
so far from any vindictive feeling operating upon the
prisoner, he had received great provocation before he
committed the Act. With respect to the latter point
urged by the Attorney-General, that the act of the pri-
soner must be looked upon as justifiable homicide,
he could nct assent to that, because the law allowed
no person to use a deadly weapon in his own defence, un-
less he had reasonable ground for believing that his life
would fall a victim, if he did not take away the life of his
antagonist.

Tile Jury retired for half an hour, and returned a verdict
of " Guilty of hian,laughter."
Mr. Justice COLNRIDGE, after a most impressive address,
sentenced the prisoner to three years' imprisonment in the
fluuse of Correction,4Coldbath-fields.

LATEST FROM UNITED STATES

By the Orpheus, Captain Bailey, ',hick arrived at Liver- I
pool on Saturday, we have recieved papers ,rona New '
York to the 93d, and from Canada to the 14th ultimo.
The excitement in the state of Maine on the subject of the
north-eastern boundary was subsiding ♦ery fast, and the
prevalent opinion appeared to be that no disturbance of the
amicable relations of Great Britain and America would
ensue. The following are extracts
(New York Courier, March 22.)
We have nothing of further interest from the east.
Affairs wear a more pacific aspect, and the impression
began to prevail at Augusta that the reports touching Sir
J. Harvey's extensive belligerent preparations have been
much exaggerated. Similar mis-statements were circulated
in New Brunswick, in relation to the movements in Maine.

(New Yerk Journal of Commerce, March 20.)
FROM Rio JANEIRO.—WO are indebted to Captain
Kompton, of the ship 'William C. Nye, for Rio Janoiro
papers to Jan. 28.
Captain Kcmpton was informed ioy an American gentle-
man just as he was going to sea, that news had been re.
eeived that the French squadron had bombarded Buenos
Ayres.
(From the Montreal herald of March 14.)
Nsw BRUNSWICK.—The corporation of St. John's, N. B.
has appropriated the sum of 1,0001. for the purpose of reliev-
ing the families (in need of assistance) of such inhabitants as
his Excellency Sir .I,lm Harvey may require from the city,
for assisting in repelling any invasion of the province of
New Brunswick, or any of the British possessions in North
America. The probable amount of the available funds
of the New Brunswick Legislature is stated to bo
f11,75)2/. 18s. ed., exclusive of 40,0001. funded on pro-
vincial account from the proceeds of casual and territorial
revenue. The appropriation for roads amount to 10,370/.,
of which 2,0001. is to be expended on the road from Frede-
ricton to the Canada line. Sir Jon Harvey had ordered
drafts to be made of 850 men to be held in readiness as
emergencies might require, of which number about 500
were actually embodied.

COURT- M RTIAL. —The case of tie Terrebonne prisoners
terminated yesterday. The prisoners' counsel addressed
the court at some length, attempting to prove that their
assembling at Terrebonne was entirely free from any trea-
sonable intentions. There are still about 50 prisoners
in gaol to be tried for high treason, among whom are
several charged with the murder of Mr. Walker at La
Tortu. The sitting of the court will probably continue
another month.
