A jury was empanelled; the only evidence taken
before them this day was with regard to the identity
of the body, which was clearly proved, and it was
then removed to a vault in the burial• ground of the
chapel, where the post mertern examination was made
by Mr. Harries. The viscera and stomach were re-
moved and were taken charge of by Mr. Herapath
for the purpose of undergoing a minute medical and
chemical examination. Should poison be found in
them, it is intended to take up another deceased wife
of the prisoner Harris, and also two children of Mrs.
Sheyler.

The inquest was adjourned till Wednesday next at
ten o'clock.

THE POISONINGS IN SUSSEX.

HASTINGS, MAY s.—Mary Ann Geering, who is
suspected of having poisoned her husband and three
sons, underwent a lengthened examination this day at
the Town-hall before Mr. Briscoe, Mr. Staines, and
other county magistrates.

The bodies which had been interred in the parish
churchyard of Guestling, were exhumed, and the
contents of the stomachs sent to Mr. Taylor, of Guy's
Hospital, for analysation. The analysis as yet is not
complete in all the cases. In two, however, arsenic
has been discovered in sufficient quantity to account
for death.

The evidence, as far as it went, afforded strong
grounds of suspicion, and the proceedings having
lasted till a late hour in the day, the magistrates re-
solved to remand the prisoner.
The prisoner was then removed to the Hastings
gaol.

THE POISONING AT BATH.
BATH", MAY 6. The painful excitement which has
been created in this city by the recent in% estiption into
the alleged poisoning of a husband by his wife, was
much increased to-day by the exhumation of the
body of a deceased wife of the prisoner Harris. The
exhumation took place at the burial-groung of the
Ebenezer Chapel, Walcot. The corpse was that of
a woman about thirty years of age ; her maiden
name was Louisa Perry, and prior to her marriage
with the prisoner Harris she carried on the occupa-
tion of a laundress. The marriage took place on the
17th of July last, and she was buried on the Ist of
February following. During the whole of this pe-
riod her health was anything but good; she was at-
tended by Dr. Watson, and at one time she was a
patient of the Bath Union Hospital, where she was
treated for a bad leg. She got better, and was able
to walk about very well. Towards the cl se of her
life—within the last fortnight or so—a numbness and
deadness of the legs came on, and at the end of Janu-
ary she died. As soon as she was dead the prisoner
Harris said, " I will have another wife within a
month ;" and he manifested no feeling whatever at her
loss. He did not send for any of her friends, and he
absolutely refused to follow her to the grave. When
one of the other prisoners, Mrs. Sheyler, heard that
they were going to take up this and the other bodies,
she said, " I hope they will not ; if they do I shall
die." The exhumation was made in the presence of
Messrs. Harries and Barrett, surgeons, Mr. Hera-
path, the analytical chemist of Bristol, the superin-
tendent, and several inspectors of police, and numer•
ous other persons. _
