After 1 o'clock the prisoner was placed before Mr.
Corrie, at the Clerken well police-court, when the fol-
lowing witnesses were examined :
Mr. John Abram stated that he was managing clerk
to Mr. Atkinson, of 51, Bedford-row. This morning
about 25 minutes past 10 he pulled down the office
window for the purpose of letting out the smoke, and
looked out for two or three minutes, when he saw the
prisoner at the bar walk towards the deceased, Mr.
Waugh, and immediately alter heard the report of a
pistol. He immediately ran down stairs and .collared
the prisoner at the opposite corner of Bedford-row.
Their offices are opposite Gregories'. The space from
the offices is about thirty yards. Mr. Waugh was
coming from Red Lion-passage. The beadle at
the same time collared him. The prisoner imme-
diately on being taken into custody said Mr.
Waugh had ruined him. As he came to the
office this morning he saw the prisoner waiting about
at the corner of Hand-court, opposite the baker's shop.
His deformity attracted his (witness's) attention. The
age of Mr. Waugh was about 56, and at the time the
prisoner fired at him he (Mr. Waugh) was evidently
going to his office. The prisoner, as he was being con-
veyed to the Hunter•s:reet police-station, said Mr.
Waugh had made him eat bread and cheese for ten days
at a time. _

Inspector Checkley here asked if the magistrate would
examine the surgeon, as he was in a great hurry to leave.
The Magistrate—Certainly. •
Mr. Septimus Gibbon, physician to the London Hos-
pital, stated that he happened to be in the
office of Messrs. Gibbon, in St. James's-street,
when a clerk said a gentleman had been
shot. He immediately went out, and saw the body of
Mr. Waugh. His clothes were saturated with blood,
and it was lifeless. After the clothes were i moved he
found a wound in the chest below Vie fourth rib, close
to the breast-bone, in the region of the heart. The ball
had taken a downward direction, And passed through
the substance of the heart, which would, cause immediate
death. He probed- the wound to the depth of four
inches. The ball had struck a cartilage of the rib, which
had turned the ball downward. Ho bad been physician
to the Smyrna Hospital, and bad seen a number of
gun-shot wounds.
Thomas Hutchins, street-keeper, of Bedford-row,
stated that this morning, just before half past ten, he was
passing No. 1, Bedford-row, and heard the report of
fire-arms, and looking in the direction of Bedford-street
Paw Mr. Waugh fall on the pavement. He ran up, and
the prisoner then said "He ruined me, and I'll ruin
him." He saw the pistol (produced) lying in thekennel,
and he then asked the prisoner if he had any more fire-
arms, and he said, "No ; that's all." He then took the
prisoner into custody, when he again said the deceased
had ruined him, and that he wanted his money to go
abroad with. In Brunswick-square be pulled a large
knife out of his pocket. (Thin waa =dud is called a dirk
knife) and gave it to him. He did not see the prisoner
fire the pistol, but he saw Mr. Waugh fall. The pri-
soner was in custody when he got up to the spot where
he was standing.

Richard Beckenham, 18, Holles-street, Linooln's-inn-
fields, porter, stated that about half-past ten this morn-
ing he was coming out of Hand-court into Bedford-
street, when he saw the prisoner take deliberate aim at
Mr. Waugh with a pistol. He could see the pistol. He
also saw the flash, heard a report, and saw Mr. Waugh
stagger and fall. As he was in the act of falling he
heard the deceased say, "Hold him," at that time he had
his hand on the prisoner's shoulder. He said, " I did it ;
he ruined me. I hive not a friend in the world." Mr.
Waugh uttered nothing but the words he had stated.
The pistol fell, and the other one %las taken from him.
The pistols produced were the ones the prisoner had. The
one taken from him he said was loadoci.

Mr. James Loynes, residing at 5, Chapsl-street, Pen-
tonville, stated tbat he saw the pri goner discharge the
pistol, which he afterwards threw av►ay. He picked it
up from where the prisoner had thrown it, He (prisoner)
-• had another pistol, which was taken from his trousers
pocket. It had a copper cap on the nipple, and was full
cocked. He assisted to convey the prisoner to the station-
house.

Inspector Checkley stated that he arrived at the Hun-
ter-street police-station, and finding ;no one h.vi charged
the prisoner, he took him into custody, and brought
hiui to this court. As he was on the way to the station,
he said if it had not been for the deceased he would have
been in the possession of 8001. He used the word de-
ceased. He further said, " Now I eh all only have 4001.,
and God knows when that will be, as he has thrown
that into Chancery."
Sergeant Hayes stated that be wris on duty at the
station in Hunter-street, wheu the prisoner was brought
there. The prisoner said Mr. Waugh had brought it
all on himself as he had cheated him, out of an estate
and some acres of land. He wan a relation of his,
as his (prisoner's) family, and
that
satisfied. He received
