oe his vital energies, indicating that his nervous system
had been very much affected by something of a poisonous
nature. The man described that after his meals he felt
a lotuni-Ig pain in the throat and the pit of the stomach,
with a disposition to vomit, and very offensive secretions.
Witness attended him fur about twelve days, and in the
first instance prescribed what he considered best calcu-
lated to act as an antidote to arsenical poison, and found
the symptoms give way to that treatment, and on the fol-
lowing day he seemed to be better. lie continued this
treatment for 12 days, and considered him now to be per-
fectly recovered. The Doctor added, that the ten
grains he found in the paper would not quite half fill a
small saltspoon, but he was dceidedly of opinion that
two grains of arsenic administered to a healthy man for
four or five consecutive days might be sufficient to cause
death.

Sergeant Kelly stated that since the last examination
he had been engaged in constant efforts to discover the
shop at which the poison produced had been purchased,
but hitherto without success.
Mr. Vann, the prisoner's solicitor, said that under the
circumstances detailed he should advise his client to re-
serve her defence; but he felt bound to intimate that she
earnestly protested her innocence, and he should he pre-
pared with evidence before another tribunal to rebut the
most material parts of the prosecutor's statement, and to
prove that she had been compelled to leave his house and
seek protectio❑ from her father, in consequence of her
husband's ill-usage.
The depositions were then taken by Mr. Vine, the
chief clerk, end the prisoner was fully committed to
Newgate for trial.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
BIRMINGHAM, MAY 31.—At Gloucester and Worcester
markets on the 26th English wheat ruled dull, but lower prices
were not generally submitted to. Foreign pressed for sale at
a reduction of Is per quarter. No alteration in barley. Oats"
scarce, and fully as dear. Beans realised quite as much money.
Peas neglected. During the present week, owing to the fine
weather, the transactions in wheat have been very limited.
The millers offer lower rates, and holders are firm. Barley
nominally unaltered. Consumers pay the present advanced
prices of oats with extreme reluctance. We have a fair con-
sumptive sale for beans at former prices. No inquiry for peat.
At this day's market there was a fair supply of wheat, and the
sale ruled dull, at rather under the currency of this day se'n-
night. Barley taken slowly, and nominally unaltered in value.
Oats, beans, and peas all held for former prices, with very
little doing in either.

quarters of oats, and 90 quarters of peas. There was a fair sale

rior qualities were difficult of disposal at last Wednesday's

rates. In other articles no material change occurred. This
day's market was thinly attended. Wheat and flour sold slowly

very prevalent among the natives, and Holloway's Ointment

The Editor of the Illofussilite instances that of a Coolie em-

Ringworms, which defied all the Verut doctors, and promised
to devour the poor man, before he was even under ground.
Holloway's Pills and Ointment were then tried, and in a month
he was perfectly restored to his former healthy condition and
cleanliness of skin. Sold by all Druggists, and at Professor
