THE POISONING CASE AT BIR-

MINGHAM.
BIRMINGHAM, MAY 23.—This morning Mary Ann Lawless
was placed at the bar, before the sitting magistrates at the
Public Ofnce, on the charge of attempting to poison her hus-
band and two other persons. The first witness called was
the husband of the priscner, who stated that en Tuesday
afternoon last a Mrs. Murray called in at his house, and his
wife being then out, he asked her to sit down and wait,
which she did. Shortly after that the accused came in with
some soft soap in her hand, and went up stairs, tell-
ing witness to make the tea. He refused, asking his
wife to do it, and at the same time invited Mrs.
Murray, who had a child about two years old with
her, to stop to tea. A young man, a friend of
the parties, was also in the room. The prisoner,
having made the tea, poured out three cups, one for
Mrs. Murray, another for witness, and the remainder
she drank herself. There was no unpleasant taste in that
tea, but, on making some more, witness observed his
wife take from her breast a small paper packet, which he
thought at the time was tea, and, having poured the con-
tents into the teapot, she threw the paper into the fire, and,
having poured some more water into the teapot, dealt out
another cup of tea to the other parties and herself, but did
not drink more than two spoonfuls of it. Witness and
Mrs. Murray, while drinking their cup of tea, found that it
burned their mouths and throats, and asked the prisoner if
she tasted anything the matter with it, to which she replied
that she had made it strong. In the course of a few minutes
the witness, Mrs. Murray, and her child, who had also
partaken of the tea, were all suddenly seized with violent
sickness, pains in the stomach, and burning heat in the
throat.

The greater portion of the above evidence having been
corroborated by Mr 4. Murray, the surgeon who was called
in to attend the sufferers was next examined, and deposed
to the state in which he found them, and tile remedies he
applied.
Mr. Woolrych, a practical chemist, deposed to having
analysed a portion of fluid ejected by the husband of the
accused, which he found strongly impregnated with arsenic,
and also found a small portion adhering to the sides of the
teapot,
_ _

An assistant to Mr. Browett, chemist and druggist, said
he supplied the prisoner with a pennyworth of soft soap and
a pennyworth of arsenic on Tuesday afternoon last, a short
time previous to the adminh-tration of poison to the com-
plaining parties, the prisoner stating that she wanted it for
the purpose of mixing it with the soft soap to clean bed-
steads with.

After hearing the evidence of the police officer who ap-
prehended the prisoner, when she said it was only a b d job
he (the husband) was not dead, the
.prisoner was committed
to take her trial at the next assizes for the county of
Warwick.

The only cause that can be assigned for the commission of
this wholesale attempt at poisoning is the unhappy way in
which the prisonerand her husband lived together.

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.

Yesterday, Mr. Waklev, M.P. held an inquest at the resi-
dence of Dr. Ogeir Ward, Leonard-place, Kensington, on the
body of Mr. George Robert Michael Ward, Barrister-at-law,
aged f"rty-six.
Dr. Ogier Ward deposed that the deceased was his bro-
ther, and had been two days at his house on a visit. On
Saturday morning the witness entered deceased's room at
seven o'clock, and found deceased awake. Witness asked him
how he felt, and he said, " Very well." Witness persuaded
him to get up, and when he left the room deceased was put-
ting his stockings on. Witness then went down to his own
dressing-room, and while dressing Mrs. Ward came into the
room to tell him that the deceased was getting out of the
window of his room, which was on the third floor. Wit-
ness instantly hastened up stairs, and on opening the
door of deceased's room, saw the window open to about
the height of one square of glass. On reaching the
window, he looked 'out into the area, expecting' to
find deceased there, but could not see him ; he then saw
that the dressing-glass which stood on the table under the
window was knocked down, and was lying half on the
window sill and half over it. He made a pull at it, but
could not get it loose, and on a second pull he loosened it. and
at the same moment he saw the deceased fall. He did not
see deceased before, as the looking-glass prevented him, but
whether the deceased was holding by the glass or by the sill
of the window under the glass he could not say. Witness
saw deceased fall with his arms extended upwards, and he
turned on one side, just before he fell on the rails, one spike
of which entered deceased's abdomen and injured an artery,
into which wOund witness put his hand. Deceased was got
off the spikes with great difficulty, and carried into the house.
By the CORONER— Deceased had been suffering from acute
delirium for some days. Deceased sent for witness on the
Tuesday previous, when witness found him in great mental
distress, and deceased said he felt as if he could almost cut his
throat. Deceased had never attempted self-destruction, but
was a man of high religious principles, and abhorre,! any-
thing of the kind. In the course of Friday, witness got a
medical friend, at Hackney, to visit deceasad, and it was
arranged that deceased should be removed to that gentle-
man's house the next day. Witness should say, that de-
ceased disliked that Arrangement, and thought to escape from
the house, although lie made no objection to it, and had as-
sisted in packing his things. Deceased was blind of one eye
and very near sighted with the other. Witness had no idea
that deceased, in getting out of the window, intended to
commit suiciime, but was convinced that he intended to avoid"
going to H,Ackney. Mrs. Ward became aware of the cir-
cumstance by seeing her window darkened by deceased's
legs. Witness's firm impression was, that deceased was not
aware what Dart of the house his bed room was situated, and
thought he was nearer to the balcony than he was, and could
drop on it and get to the other house. Deceased died about
an hour af!er the occurrence.
The jury returned a verdict, " That the deceased died
from the effects of the injuries he received by falling from a
window, being at the time of un,ound mind."

THE WHOLES.K.LE MURDERS IN

NORFOLK.
FURTMER DISCLOSURES.

HAPPISBURGH, SUNDAY NlGHT.—Great as the excitement
was throughout this part of the country on the discovery of
the recent horrible cases of poisoning, it has been renewed
and increased considerably by the circumstance of the Secre-
tary of State, Sir James Graham, having expressed his in-
tention to re-investigate the circumstances attending the
mysterious affair. A Government officer has already ar•
rived, and assisted by Mr. Superintendent Smith, of the
Ludham division of the Norfolk Police force, and Colonel
Oaks, the chief constable of the county, have been making
private inquiries, the result of which not only confirms what
was stated at the Coroner's investigation, but goes far to clear
up the matter, and point out the perpetrator of the diabolical
crimes.

It seems that the cases of poisoning which have occurred
in this neighbourhood are more numerous and appalling
than was at first imagined, and that the report of the in-
quests before the county coroner will give but a poor idea
of what has been done in this dreadful system. Suspicion,
not stronger than that which now exists, with reference to
the cause of death of many others, led to the exhumation of
the bodies of four persons, and that of old Balls. The evi-
dence at the inquest proved that four out of the five had
been poisoned, and the probability of Balls intentionally
administering it. In addition to these deaths, there were
several other grand-children of Balls, whose deaths were as
sudden and as suspicious, and hence arises the supposition
that if a strict inquiry were made respecting their fate,
there would be found to have perished by similar means,
within ten years, no fewer than twelve grandchildren of the
deceased Jonathan Balls, eight belonging to his daughter
Mrs. Green, and four to the other daughter, Mrs. Pestle,
the subject of the recent proceedings before the coro-
ner, who died, after being attacked all alike. To this
list may be added Balls and his wife, both clearly ascer-
tained to have perished from arsenic; and yet, in all these
very suspicious deaths, only one inquest was held, until the
inquiry consequent on the shocking discovery. All the
children were in the habit of visiting their grandfather's
house. By several parties it has been proved that old
Balls was in tl,e habit of buying arsenic for years pa,t ; for
what purpose was not learnt. There are a few residing in the
vicinity who remember Balls's father and mother dying sud-
denly, and in a very suspicious way, similar to the other
deaths, twenty-two years ago: they came to live with hirv,
and shortly afterward:: perished. It also ought to be stated,
that during the last few years many labouring men who
were in the habit of mixing greatly in Balls' society, and
visiting him at his house, have died after two or three
days' illness, and from a cause far from being satisfactorily
explained. These numerous deaths, all of a similar
character, coupled with the circlimstance of old
Balls being known to have been guilty of several
wicked acts, has naturally riven rise to a general opiniot.
threughout the distiiet that these persons have been poisoned
in the same way. As has been mentioned, Balls was in the
habit of perpetrating several disgusting transactions, and ac-
cording to a rat enieut made to us by one of the heads of the
police, has been twice charged with the serious offence of
arson, and was generally termed in the village a mischievous
old man.

One fact shows very clearly, that Balls was alone in this
dreadful affair, which untiTtuitately was lost sight-of by the
coroner and jury. When the last child of his daughter, Mrs.
Pestle, died, the mother became alarmed, and said she would
preserve the membrane which the child threw ut and gave
it to the surgeon, Mr. Hewett, to be examined. This circum-
stance was stated at the coroner's inquiry, but it did not come
out in the medical testimony, though the piece of membrane
in question had been examined. On Mrs. Pestle stating
her determ4oation, the old man replied, "Oh, don't do that ;"
but she still declaring her intention to do so, lie must have
taken the poison immediately afterward.,, for he was a corpse
in a few hours. It is deemed remarkable that these repeated
deaths did not excite the suspicion of the vicar of the parish,
the registrar, the surgeon, or the rural police.
It is stated that there has been a feeling amongst the
magistrates of this county that the expenses of coroners'
inquests should be ?educed, that inquests should not be held
so frequently, and even that a circular has been sent to the
officers of this very parish, impressing upon them the neces-
sity of carrying out their suggestions.
It is anticipated that the preliminary inquiry will termi-
nate this week, and report of the result will probably be for-
warded to the Home-office. Whether any more bodies will
be exhumed and examined will, no doubt, depend upon the
official inquiries.

During the cross-examination of Mr. Tite, the emi-
nent architect, on Tuesday, by Mr. Butt, in Group la—the Exeter
and Yeovil line—the Learned Gentleman pressed him verche:
to a road being upon a level. After denying it sevearatitu

the conviction that she meant to destroy herself, that he went and

sofa, deceased fancied she saw a large bat fijing about th apart-

she begged of him (her son) to catch it. When he left home for
school on the Friday she called hint to kiss her, and behaved most
affectionately towards him. She frequently complained of pain in
the head, and would stand with her hands to it for a long limo to-

cases cf suicide in the paper, she would express her horror at people
taking away that life- they could not give. The jury returned a ver-
dict, " That deceased hung herself in a state of insanity."

TRADE DURING THE PAST WEEK.
The supplies of wheat coastwise into London have been
quite moderate since our last, and show a material falling
off as compared with previous receipts. The arrivals for the
week ending this (Saturday) evening have amounted to only
3,164 qrs. against 5,393 qrs. received the preceding week.
The quantity exhibited at Mark-lane by land-carriage
samples from the neighbouring counties has also been
small ; notwithstanding which we are unable to report
any improvement in prices. On Wednesday a some-
what firmer tone was assumed by factors, but the weather,
which was then wet, having subsequently become more set-
tled, the trade relapsed into a very dull state on Friday ; and
though the scanty nature of the supply prevented any
further fall in prices, considerable difficulty was experienced
in making sales at Monday's reduced terms.. Of foreign
wheat the arrivals have been liberal, 16,646 qrs have been
reported. Some of the cargoes lately received from the
Baltic have been offered from on board ship at lower rates
than similar qualities have been held at in granary ; but no
inclination has been manifested to make speculative invest-
ments ; and the business done during the week has been
restricted to small purchases made by the millers to satify
pressing wants. In these cases similar prices to those pre-
viously current have been realised, say Ws. to 555. far fair
to fine Dantzic, and 475. to 48s. for good heavy parcels of
red. Bonded certificates have been in steady request ; the
cautious manner in which millers have bought lock wheat
has, however, lessened the demand for these documents, and
we have not heard of a higher rate than 10s. 6d. per 4881bs.
having been paid. Hitherto the wheat averages have not
been affected by the late important fall in quotations, but
next week some of the low sales will come into the returns ;
and unless the Corn Importation Bill be passed very rapidly
through the Lords, the aggregate average for the kingdom
will probably have fallen below the point at which the
minimum duty is fixed under the proposed new scale.
The inquiry for flour has been exceedingly slow through-
out the week, and some uncertainty exists as to what is the
nominal top price of town made, the millers being by no
means agreed on that point. Ship flour has also been selling
at irregular terms, and, on the whole, the turn has been in
favour of the purchaser. We have recently received very
large supplies of flour from the United States, and more is
said to be close at band; none of this is likely to come into
consumption until it shall have been decided whether Sir
Robert P€ el's Bill is, or is not, to pass the Lords, and by the
time this point is ascertained there will probably be near
upon a million of barrels of flour under lock in the United
Kingdom.
FOREIGN CORN TRADE.
By the arrival of the Great Western steam-ship we are
put in possession of advises from the United States of recent
dates. The continued dull reports from Great Britain had,
it appears, had considerable effect on prices of flour, but at
the reduced rates a fair extent of business had been done..
Letters from New York' of the 7th inst., state that several
thousand barrels had been bought for export during the
week ' • prices realised had, however, been nearly a dollar per
barrel lower than those previously current, good brands of
Genessee having been sold at $4 68N c., and other descrip-
tions on equally moderate terms. Fair supplies of wheat
had, we are informed, come to hand, and quotations of the
article had receded ; good red bad been freely offered at
1 doll. per bushel, good to prime white at prices varying
from 108 c. to 112 c. per bushel. From Baltimore we learn,
under date of the 4th of May, that Howard-street flour had
been sold there as low as 4 dolls. per brl. Shipments were being
freely madefrom the principal ports in the States to Europe,
and there must at present be rather a considerable quantity
of bread stuffs on passage from thence.
In the Baltic less impression seems to have been made on
prices of wheat by the recent important fall in the English
markets than might have been expected; this may be partly
accounted for by the fact, that the decline here has been
principally on British, the expectation of the duty coming
off having prevented the holders of bonded giving way to
any extent.
Letters from Dantzic, of the 16th instant, state that the
supplies of wheat from Poland had wholly ceased; and that
though the demand for the article had been on a strictly
retail scale, its value had not suffered any material deprecia-
tion. The best samples of old high• mixed were then held at
51s. to 535., good qualities at 48s. to 49a., and other sorts at
prices varying from 445. to 475. per qr. Vessels to load
wheat for London might have been chartered at 3s. 9d. to
4s. 3d., and to Liverpool at 4s. 6d. to ss. per qr.
At Rostock, Stettin, and neighbouring markets, scarcely
anything appears to have been done in wheat, the few orders
received laving been limited too low to admit of their exe-
cution. Below 455. to 465. per qr. free on board there had
been no sellers at the places named, whilst such qualities are
not at the present moment worth more in London than 465.
to 475.; unless, therefore, prices give way on the other aide
or ri.,e here, no opportunity will be afforded for profitable
business.

The Hamburgh advices of Tuesday last, state that very
few purchases of wheat had been made there since the pre-
vious post day, either tor shipment ur for local consumption.
Wahren, weighing 62ibs. to 62%1b5., was then still held at
48s. 6d., and light 591bs. to 591/21bs. Saale qualities had not
been sold below 445. per qr.
From Holland the reports are wholly without interest,
but in the Belgian markets some business appears to have
been done at Lull prices.
From the southern and eastern parts of Europe the advices
are also dull, *And prices of wheat seem to be gradually
tending downwards all over the continent. That we shall
receive larger supplies of foreign wheat during the summer
and autumn than we were led to expect can no longer be
questioned, and the reported deficiency in the last crop of
wheat appears to have been as much exaggerated abroad
as the potato disease has been magnified at home.
There are good stocks held at Marseilles, Leghorn,
Trieste, &e. ; and such qualities as are usually exported
from those and neighbouring ports were obtainable, accord-
ii.g to.the latest accounts, at front 355. to 365. per qr. free
on board.

Further east the value of wheat has also fallen of late;
and we learn from Odessa, under date of the 11th of May, that
very good Polish had been sold there at equal to 30s. per qr.
free on board.—Mark-lane Express.

:ii i A IVI BURG El MAIL.
COPENHAGEN, MAY 16.—We have letters from Iceland of
the beginning of April, which state that the eruption of
Mount Hecla had ceased for about a fortnight. -The fishery
was so productive that it had been necessary to send ships to
England for salt. _ _ _

BTOCKI-10L3f. MAY 15.—Professor Guger embarked the
day before yesterday on board the Swittriod steamer, for
Lubeck. Befsre his derarture he had a long audience of the
King. It was said that General Count Bjornsterna would
leave by the same steamer, and then proceed to London to
resume his functions as Ambassador, which would render
probable his continuance in that part; which causes the
Dagligt Aitehande on particular occasions to make most hos-
tile attacks on him and the Government, in which the
Aftonblad in some degree concurs. The departure of the
Count, however,_ has not yet taken place.
HUNGARIAN FRONTIERS, MAY 14.—A circumstance has
occurred on the south of Hungary which has caused a great
sensation. It is. that between twentl -five and thirty dis-
tricts, with a population of 25 or 30,000 souls of the (united)
Greek religion, have gone over to the non-united (the Rus-
sian) religion.
CorrsrAyrniorLE, MAY 6.—The Sultan at length set
out on his visit to the European pi ovinces on the Ist of May,
and returned to the capital on the 12th. The pending ne-
gotiation for a commercial treaty with Russia was terminated
on the 30th of April between Reschid Pascha and M. Tiloff,
and the treaty signed. On the same day Stratford Canning
had his audience of leave.

On the Ist of May, about noon, the Sultan went to Emer-
gian, in the Bosphorus, the summer palace of Chosrew, where
he received the homage of the grandies, attended divine wor-
ship in the Mosque, bu►lt by Chosrew seme years ago, and
then embarked to proceed to Sarigerek, at the entrance of the
Boaphorous, when toe flotilla waited for a time ; it consisted of
three steam-boats, one ship of the line, one frigate, and one
brig. Admiral Parker was also there, with the Virago
steamer, to salute the Sultan on his departure. The Sultan
went on board the ship of the line, with the principal persons
of his suite, which consisted of 1,500 persons, among whom
there were four physicians of G.,lata.
About seven in the evening the flotilla sailed. Fine
summer weather had prevailed for the past week, but on this
day the atmosphere was covered with dark clouds, a contrary
wind blew, and the sea rose pretty high ; the Suttan's ship
was therefore towed by the three steamers. All the forts at
the entrance of the Black Sea saluted the Sultan with their
artillery, threw up skyrockets, and burnt Bengal lights on
their parapets, which threw a brilliant light on the dark,
agitat,d sea, and served as a guide to the flotilla on the
Black Sea.

The Pushes Euxuines maintained its old reputation, and
was as uncivil to the Sovereign of the Faithful as to an or-
dinary mortal. Him roaring frightened the Turkish sailors,
to whom the dearest treasure of the empire was entrusted,
and there was much deliberation what was to be done ; the
High Admiral, fcrmerly a trooper of Sultan Mabmoud,
whose knowledge of seamanship is limited to excursions in
his splendid gondola on the shores of the Bosphorus, proposed
to sail to the island of Inil Ada, there to anchor, and wait for
better weather, but the captain opposed this, alleging that
there were dangerous rocks there; same were for sailing to-
wardsFarnoo, bs' constantly tacking, and others for returning
to Constantinople. The confusion and consternation through
the storm appears to have been great. One of the steamers
divided with its wheels the rope by which it was fastened to
the ship of the line, but without doing any damage.
On the 2d of May, at ten o'clock in the morning, after
sailing about fifty miks from the mouth, along the Euro-
pean coast of the Black Sea, they had to put back, so that the
flotilla did not enter the Bosphorus until six o'clock in thes
evening, when the Sultan landial quietly and went°that
