honour as a Minister ;" that he suppressed his real
declarations in the proof-sheets of " Hansard," and,
by so doing, endeavoured to foist a garbled
account of them upon the credulity of the
public. This last-mentioned libel was most
signally crushed by the mere utterance of
these few words :—" Mr. Muzaar, of Albemarle-
street, published the speech, and there was a jealousy
about the copyright; and HANSARD had no right to
publish it, but he applied to me for my permission,
and I got Mr. Muaaar to give his consent to the
publication." If such distinctness of reasoning as
this be impugned by the Protectionists as mere
subterfuge and hypocrisy, then are mankind grown
the most purblind creatures in creation ; and never was
such a mountain of audacity ever concealed by such a
scanty and flimsy veil. But the statement delivered
last evening by the Prime Alinister of Great
Britain is worthy of him in his exalted
position ; it possessed all the unaffected dignity
of innocence, and all the genuine simplicity of truth-
fulness! Cordially do we coincide with the Hon.
Member for Wolverhampton, that the antagonists of
Sir itonEar PEEL have, in their ill-judged impe-
tuosity, only tended to his greater exaltation in public
opinion, and have singularly stabilitated his popularity.

Mr. J. CHAPMAN seconded the motion, which was carried
Unanmiously.
Tile CHAIRMAN thanked the meeting sincerely for the
honour they had done him, lie had always ende ,voured to
promote their interests. The nest proof of that would be
that he had already been at the expense of 2,000/. to for.

CRIMINAL CO URT.—(T HIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
(Before Chief Justice Teepee, Baron Roue, and
Alderman Tinsel?sox.)
Dr. James Ellis surrendered this morning to take his trial,
and was placed at the bar, indicted on the coroner's inquisi•
tion for manslaughter, in the case of Richard Dresser, who
died while being subjected to laydropathic treatment under
the care of Dr. Ellis, to which charge he pleaded Not
Guilty.
Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Haddlestone were retained for the
prosecution ; Mr. Cockburn, Mr. Prendergast., and Mr. Clark-
son for the prisoner.
Mr. BODKIN, in laying tie case before the jury,
said they would be aware that it had features in it
peculiar to itself —that a system of treatment for
disease had been introduced from Germany, winch was very
popular in that country, and which was 'known as hydro •
pathy, according to which, water is applied to the surface of
the body by means of saturated cloths wrapt round the per-
son, and over there dry cloths, which prevent evaperation,
and so excite great perspiration, which, in the belief of many
effects great go, eh The deceased died, however, in conse-
quence of this kind of treatment. Richard Dresser, he would
show them, was an accountant in Eastcheap. He was, about
the month of May last, afflicted with jaundice, but, being ap-
parently cured of that disease, he was attacked with sciatica,
a deep-seated pain in the region of the kidney. Mr. Dresser,
being acquainted with Dr. Ellis, proposed putting himself
under his treatment, and did so on the 29th May last, on
which evening he was received as a patient at br.
establishment at Sudbrook Park, Richmond, and on the
Tuesday after, June 2, the patient died. It was for the jury
to consider whether the treatment, such as it was, evinced
either, on the one hand, a felonious intent, or, on the other,
such gross ignorance as would put the patient's life in dan-
ger. Mr. Bodkin having referred to the Act of Parliament,
under which the case, happening in Surrey, but investigated
by a London Coroner, came here for trial.
Mr. COCKBURN gave the Court notice that it was his in•
tention to take the opinion of the Court on that point,
The COURT was of opinion that this might be better done
at another stage of the trial.
Mr. BODKIN proceeded with his address to the jury, de-
tailing the particulars which appear in evidence, and read a
diagnosis of Dresser's case, written after the death, by Dr.
Ellis. who attributed the death to diseased liver, ending in
suppuration. He (Mr. Bodkin) hoped, however, to be able
to show the jury that there was no disease in the liver, and
that the death arose in consequence of congestion. The jury
then would inquire whether such gross ignorance as the diag-
nosis evinced of the disease of the deceased, coupled with the
treatment applied, would infer the prisoner guilty of man-
slaughter.
- Thomas Hubert, being sworn, said he was a lighterman
and coal-merchant, and knew the deceased, Richard Dresser.
He saw him on Friday, the 29th of May, when he complained
of rheumatism, from which the witness knew he had suffered
before. Witness knew that Dr. Ellis had been sent for, and
was present when he came to Eastcheap. Dresser said he
was glad the doctor bad come, fur he was suffering great
pain, and he thought the doctor would do him good. Dr.
Ellis said he had made up his mind that Dresser would go
down with him to Sudbrook Park that afternoon ;" and that
he would drive him down in his carriage. An appointment
was made to meet Ellis at Sackville-street, Piccadilly, at
three o'clock that afternoon.
Cross-examined—Dresser was acquainted with Dr. Ellis
for some time, and was a great advocate of hydropathy ; so
far, indeed, as to publish cases of cure. The pain complained
of affected him in the hip joint, groin, and down the thigh,
and in consequence, he walked with great difficulty. Dresser
was not robust, but a strong, healthy man before that.
William Glasgow Dresser, a cousin of the deceased, stated
that his cousin was 45 years of age, a man rather strongly
built, and capable of undergoing considerable fatigue. He
believed him a person of average health. About two months
deceaseed was affected with jaundice, but rec• 'vered of them.
On the 2flth May, the last day witness saw bins alive, de-
ceased complained of pain from rheumatism. On the Tues-
day following, witness went to Sudbrook Park about 4 o'clock
in the afternoon, and saw the body of deceased, which was
very much swollen, very lac k under the eye and behind the ear,
froth issuing from the mouth. Witness saw Dr. Ellis, to
whom he remarked as to the death from rheumatism, but
Ellis said be had not died of that but from hepatitis. He
had, however, treated him on his own statement, as suffer-
ing from rheumatism; but it was afterwards discovered that
it was disease of the liver. Witness said deceased had had a
attackfiveyears ago, and the gentleman who attended
him said it was rheumatism. Dr. Ellis said that was no
imputation on the skill of the gentleman, for the disease was
of a very insidious character, and frequently only discovered
by the use of the knife. Witness asked him shortly after
something further, and Ellis said he would write him a
diagnosis of the case. He accordingly drew up the paper
produced in Court, and said he would be happy to assist at
a post mortem examination, or meet any medical gentleman.
Cross-examined—Dr. Ellis said had he known it was hepa-
titis, he would have taeated him in another way. The
patient was a man of a dark complexion, and the day when
he saw the body was very warm. Dr. Ellis said the patient
had warm baths in the evening and wet bandages.
Eliza Murial—Knew Richard Dresser three or four years ;
and on the Friday, the 29th May, he was complaining of
rheumatism. On the Sunday following, she and Mrs. Dres-
ser saw him at Dr. Ellis's in bed, when he appeared very
poorly. Witness did not stay long in the room, and never
saw him after alive.
Harriett Dresser, widow of the deceased, stated she accom-
panied her husband in the omnibus to Ellis's on the 29th of
May. She had seen the doctor that day before, who was
called in by her husband's desire to see him. About six
weeks before he had jaundice, and was then attended by Mr.
Waterworth. When he went to Ellis's he was suffering from
nothing but rhumatic pain. Witness herself knew
Ellis for several years. He was at one time a seller of
lace. It was between five and six o'clock in the evening
when she and her husband arrived at Sudbrook Park, where I
she remained till about eight o'clock the same evening. She
saw nothing done to him while she remained. She went
down again on the Sunday afternoon before five o'clock, and
remained somewhat more than two hours. Her husband
was sitting in the bed-room on the bed ;he was very poorly
andlow, sitting on the foot of the bed covered in blankets,
under which he told her he had wet bandages. He did not
seem so well as on Friday. He had a bath while she was at
Sudbrook. A long oval bath was taken into the room. She
saw several pails of cold water, and a different water
in another can, both which were mixed. She asked the
bathman whether it was warm. On the Monday she again
went down, and found her husband sitting up as before. He
complained about his legs, and she in consequence put her.
hand to them, and felt them quite cold. He said they were
perfectly useless. Dr. Ellis afterwards came into the room,
and she told him what her husband had said, and he placed
a large wet towel, folded thick, on her husband's stomach.
The towel was wetted in the wash-hand basin, with water
from the ewer. Her husband had only a night shirt on at
the time, and the wet cloth was applied to the skin. Dr.
Ellis asked her husband whether he dreaded it, and the reply
was, No. 'I he Doctor gave it as his reason for putting it
on, that lie was afraid of inflammation. She had
tea then, but her husband said he was not allowed
any. After tea she was ordered to leave the room by Dr.
Ellis, for he was to have a bath. Half

asked Dr. Ellis what be thought of the shortness of breath
and change of colour; he said they were not desirable. She
then took leave of her husband, and felt in kissing him that
his lips were quite cold. Before she left the house,
she bad a message from Dr. Ellie in the ground, he
wanted to see her. When she met with him, he said
if she was not satisfied with his letter to-morrow, would she
like to have him removed, or would she have further advice?
She said she would wait anxiously for the letter. Next day
she heard her husband was dead. Her husband thought this
water system would cure him, and he wished to try it.
Cross-examined—That produced in Court was her own
letter, written on the Friday morning to Dr. Ellis, in
which she described her husband as " prostrate with
rheumatics, as helphss as a child, and unable to walk." She
wrote as her husband dictated. When they arrived at Sud-
brook lie required to be helped in from the coach. lie said
that next morning he was so much better as to he able to
walk in the grounds with the help of Dr. Ellis alone.
On the Monday her husband said to her, that if Dr.
Ellis had been his own brother he could not have
been more kind. Some time before his illness it was agreed
that he should go down and audit the accounts of the esta-
blishment. She noticed there was no perspiration on the
Monday evening. She knew Dr. Ellis had given up the lace
trade and gone abroad, but did not know whether be
bad studied at any of the colleges. She wished the
body opened in consequence of what passed between
her and Mr. Waterworth. She knew that her husband got
sago, tapioca, and other farinaceous food, and had no sug-
gestion to make as to any illiberality connected with the
establishment.
Charles Waterworth, surgeon, New Kent-road, stated that
the deceased was a patient of his, and he had attended him
as his medical adviser for six or seven years. He had a
severe attack of rheumatism about four years ago. In
March last the deceased was attacked with jaundice;
it was slight, and in a few days he was very
well. He was not a robust man, but a person with a
feeble heart and languid circulation. Witness was present
at the post mortem examination. The chest was first exa-
mined, in consequence of the appearance of the blood front
the lungs. The lungs were very full of blood.
The heart was large and gorged, and the walls of
the heart rather thin. The witness believed that
the state of congestion of the heart and lungs accounted for
death. Such a state would be accompanied with coldness of
the limbs, and shortness of breath, terminating in death. They
found the liver healthy, and saw no actual disease in the
liver or heart. Witness had seen the diagnosis
of Dr. Ellis, and in souse particulars it corre-
sponded with the state of the body ; in some not.
There was tympanitis, and with that the diagnosis corre-
sponded with the actual state of the body. There was no
hepatitis or suppuration. Witness thought it very difficult
to ascertain suppuration of the lungs. • Hepatitis would be
accompanied with fever, and he thought it might be de.
tected by the symptom& If hepatitis or suppuration had been
present the treatment was certainly not proper. The patient
was more liable to congestion from such treatment as he
received than many others; this could be judged of by the
pulse. Wet cloths on the Monday afternoon when his legs
were cold were very objectionable, and in the judgment of
the witness, after seeing the state of the lungs and heart,
would accelerate death.
Cross-examined—The post mortem examination was con-
ducted by witness and his partner. He proceeded to the
post mortem examination with a belief that the result would
contradict the diagnosis. Had been
any suggestion made to
have Dr. Ellis, or one for him present, he would not have ob-
jected. He did not believe there was any congestion of the
liver, it appeared particularly healthy. Hisopinion was that
congestion was going on on the Monday evening, and was
accelerated by the application of wet clothes. Knowing
the constitution of Mr. Dresser, witness considered the ap-
plication of wet cloths at any time very improper; but he
admitted that in this he had an advantage over a stranger.
A congested state of the brain would produce congestion in
the lungs.
By Mr. HunDLEsToNE—Iie thought that water at a tem-
perature of 85 deg. would be too cold
the symptoms mentioned by Mrs. Dresser very consider-
ably so. The effect of it would be to drive in the blood
from the surface.
Mr. Hicks, partner with the last witness, stated that the
countenance of the deceased was bloated, and bloody serum
issued from the mouth and nose, and the whole appearance
was of a Person who hid been d owned. %Witness thought
the liver had a little to much blood, but otherwise perfectly
healthy. There was disease in the kidney, so much as
to interfere with the functions. In other respects he corrobo-
rated the former witness.

The Moniteur contains three Ordonnances relating to
the religious and elementary instruction of the slaves in
the French colonies, their discipline, and their food and
clothing. Prayers are to ho read every morning and
evening to each body of slaves, and on Sunday they are
to receive religious instruction. Schools in sufficient
number are also to be established. In punishments,
chains and irons are prohibited; but the punishment of
the whip is permitted, until further orders, with respect
to male adults. The food is to be distributed each week,
and is to consist of rice, maize, fish, and meat in sufficient
quantities. Every slave above fourteen years of age may
claim one day a week to himself, on condition that he
provides his own food.
Bosh Chambers sat on Wednesday, but their proceed-
