THE FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR OXFORD.
OXFORD, WEDNESDAY.--A.n inquest was held this after-
noon before Mr. Brunner, at the Radcliffe Infirmary,
on the, body of John Williams, another of the unfor-
tunate sufferers in the Late fatal railway accident near
this city, who expired on Monday morning, at ten
o'clock. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned
the same verdict as at the late inquiry.

Take the case of the convict Kirwan. Is his commuted
sentence compatible with any strong doubt of his guilt
in the minds of the responsible authorities ? Is he not
treated by it as a great-criminal ? It is not my purpose,
and would be beside my present argument, to enter upon
the analysis of the evidence on which he was convicted,
or the dismission of the different pleas which have been
so rife in the newspapers. I assume that, in the proper
quarter, they have been weighed and found wanting.
Had it been otherwise, common justice and common sense
demanded; not a commutation of hanging for transporta-
tion, but a free pardon. For be it remembered the case
is not one of extenuating circumstances. That ground
is taken by nobody. The question is simply guilt or in-
nocence ; atrocious guilt or entire innocence. The
highest human authority has decided for guilt, and has
also not decided not to hang the murderer. And the
public mind acquiesces in the decision. Here, then, is a
deliberate determination—a judicial, a governmental, and
a national determination—that, not certainty, but uncer-
tainty of inflction shall be the attribute of capital punish
ment. It is of no use to call the authorities to account I
It is of no use to call public opinion to account. What
is done has been done advisedly, and will be done again
and again. A different course may be imagined—as
what Utopian theory may not be cherished ?—but what
power, or what period, shall " bring it to pass ?"
I have entered upon no abstract arguments. I cite
no texts from the New Testament. I appeal to no array
of jurisprudential, philosophical, or philanthropic autho-
rities. I make no question of the right of society over
the lives of its individual members. I urge no humane,
objections to the punishment itself, nor have I traced
its brutalising influences. Aild assuredly I have not
indulged in "sentimental ejaculatious." The principle
laid down in the latest defence of the gallows is, that
"the secret of moral effect is certainty." On that has
the reasoning of this letter been constructed. Capital
punishment is, from its own nature, and that of human
beings, incapable of certainty, and, therefore, of being
efficacious, whatever Mr. Calcraft or the Times may say
to the contrary.

tible with accidental drowning or death fron-a epilepsy.
They were compatible with only one state of things—
death by suffocation and compression on dry land, where
the seaweed lay upon the sand. The hour of the death was
proved by several independent witnesses, who accurately
time the three horrible shrieks of the dying woman as
having been uttered a few minutes after seven o'clock
in the evening. It was evident at about that hour the
unfortunate lady had been decoyed to the spot where
her bathing cap was found, and there thrown down, the
damp sheet held fercibly down upon her face, whilst her
murderer knelt upon her belly ; and that in her straggles
to tear down the sheet from her mouth, she tore the ear-
ring out of her ear, and scratched her own face and neck ;
that she succeeded three times in freeing her mouth for
an instant, and that it was then she uttered those fearful
shrieks which were described by the witnesses as having
been `cut off.' Thus, and thus only, could her nose
have been bent, and one of her eyes kept from bursting
out with congestion—thus was her belly stuck as far at
least as the depth of his own knees, and her body com-
mitted to the ebbing tide, he not seeing the little rock
which finally stopped it, and over which there.was then
21 inches of water. When he returned to gather up the
clothes and put them where they were to be found, he
lost sight of or dropped the bathing cap, which too much
resembled the seaweed to be readily noticed.
" Thus, sir, of the fact of the lady having been mur-
dered and most cunningly murdered, there was not the
shadow of doubt. The next question was—Who was
the murderer I
"Her husband stood before us charged with being the
man. Under what circumstances charged ?
"He was a bad husband. That was not much in

itself.
"It is false to say we were prejudiced by hearing that
he had borne a bad character. We did not know that
he was charged with having previously murdered and
robbed three or four other persons—with having been a
notorious seducer—with having been posted in Dublin as
a seducer and a coward, and having been beaten nearly
to death by the brother of one of his many victims. All
those things have come Not onel of them ht since the cwas laid

before the court and jury at the trial. It was merely
proved that by one woman (not his wife) he had seven
or eight children. We judged rathor of his conduct,
than his possible or probable motives. We looked at
these facts.
"That eight o'clock in the evening of the 6th of Sep-
tember, when the sun set at twenty-two minutes after
six, and when the weather was cold, showery, and, un-
inviting, was a strange time to appoint for the boatman
to call for a party who would then have been 10 hours
in the open air on that bleak island ; that there was
scarcely light at seven o'clock for an artist to work by ;
that, consequently, at five or ten minutes after seven,
Kirwan must have been per unoccupied, and
relaxed from his occupation, and he could not but have
heard those frightful death-shrieks of his wife, which
after passing right over the whole of the island, startled
a seaman in his boat and made him call to his mates
who were in the cabin ; that when he must have been
altogether idle from a quarter past seven until eight
o'clock, twilight having faded into night, he did not seek
for his wife, who was to return with him, and with whin
it was pretended he had any quarrel, his defence being
that, on the contrary, he was most particularly fond of
and kind to her ; that from the position in which she lay

picious, especially when its effect was to put forward

cion ; that his throwing himself upon the body and ex-

SEAMEN REFUSING TO GO TO SEA.—On Monday the
case of the Caledonia came before Mr. Mansfield.
Twelve of the seamen were brought up at the instance
of the commander, charged with refusing to go to sea,
according to the terms of their agreement. Captain
Richardson, of the Caledonia, deposed—The vessel is
registered 789 tons, new measure, and 12 years old.
She is now laden with 1,050 tons of coal. I cannot tell
whether there are more or not. I signed weight un-
known. She is drawing 20 feet on an even keel. Mr.
Hamilton is the broker. I shipped the men, and I pre-
sume they were aware at the time of the cargo. The
Caledonia is going to San Francisco, California. The
ship was classed "YE" at Lloyd's, and she was making
two inches of water in 15 hours when she was deserted
by the prisoners. One of the men alleged that she had
2 feet 6 inches in her when they left her ; but this the
captain flatly denied. Mr. Littledale, secretary at
Lloyd's, deposed that the surveyor, on going on board,
found the leak was not increasing, but on further exami-
nation it was found that the ship was defective in some
places. Mr. Mansfield said, from the result of the offi-
cial survey in' the present case, it is quite olear that the
ship is not in a proper state to go on her voyage, and
that there is no excuse whatever for the &amen being
retained in custody. If the ship were repaired and could
safely go, and that were proved before him, then, of
course, he should think it his duty to hold the seamen to
their agreement. But in the meantime they must be
discharged. The prisoners then left the dock.—Liver-
pool Standard.
ELOPEMENT FROM STOURRRIDGE.—A considerable de-
gree of excitement has been caused in this neighbourhood
by the report that a medical man in the neighbourhood
had eloped with the daughter of a highly-respectable glass
manufacturer of this district. The male delinquent has
long enjoyed an excellent practice, is married, and has a
family of four young children. The lady is the eldest
daughter of the head of a most respectable glass firm,
whose specimens in glass obtained a medal at the Exhi-
bition of 1851. It appears that the young lady, who is
only 18 years of age, was visiting a relative in Birming-
ham, and on Friday se'nnight. under pretence of visiting
a friend, left the house, and was not heard of until her
distracted father received, on Wednesday morning, a
letter from her, dated Lisgard, Ireland, expressing her
determination to continue with her seducer, and that a
search after them would be fruitless. Subsequent in-
quiries prove that they left Birmingham by the Liverpool
train which arrives in time for the Dublin steamer.—
Wolverhampton Chronicle.

STRIKE AMONGST THE SEAMEN FOR WAGES.—The
sailors belonging to this port, Maryport and Harlington,
turned out for wages about a week or ten days ago.
The seamen belonging to the coal vessels have lately
been receiving three guineas and a half per voyage to
Dublin and back, and the strike was for an additional
half-guinea, making the voyage amount to four guineas.
The demand, we are glad to state, has been complied
with, and the men have again returned to their vessels,
several of which have left their respective ports for

(;iGfe ; withoutoodhealth it,i s
is one of the great-
blessingsuccess in any
undertaking must be of doubtful issue, and at best can-
not be secured with pleasure. To those of sedentary
habits, and whose employment is necessarily more of a
mental than a physical nature, good health although
seldom possessed by them is nevertheless an almost in-
dispensable requisite. Some constitutions and disposi-
tions require an active use of the muscles of the body ;
deny them this, and nature resents the offence by sink-
ing into melancholy and repining—mental vigour and
elasticity droops and decays. Students, teachers, cler-
gymen, literary men, and others, whose care and most
anxious thought is constantly being called forth, can
hope for but little pleasure in their high and important
undertakings, unless seconded by a proper buoyancy of
spirit and vigour of mind. To secure this, then, becomes
the first consideration of every individual ' • and the fine
balsamic preparation, Parr's Life Pills, of all medicines,
is without dispute the best calculated to produce a fine
flow of animal spirits, a clear head, and a ready percep-
tion." Sold by E. Edwards, 67, St. Paul's Churchyard ;
