By the Coroner--Twelve months since the prisoner
asked me what she should take to strengthen her, and I
recommended gent:an, valerian, juniper berries, and a
little extract of liquorice. That was in Mr. Dove's
house in Mrs. Dove's presence, and a twelvemonth ago.
I never had any conversations with Mr. Dove as to his
wife's health or the probability of her death.
Wm. Storey was the next witness examined. He said
he was a broker, and lived, at the New Cross Inn. He
deposed to overhearing the conversation between the
last witness and Mr. Dove last Thursday at the New
Cross. He heard Mr. Dove say something ;About a grain
or a grain and,a half of something, but he could not
say whether it was strychnia; mercury, or arsenic. They
were talking about poison.
Ann Waler, the landlady of the New Cress, also cor-
roborated the evidence of the witness Harrison as to the
conversation between Dove and Harrison two months
ago when Palmer's case was read. She heard Dove say
to Harrison, "Will you make or get me some strychnia ?"
and Harrison replied, "Not for the world."
At this stage of the proceedings the Coroner said—ln
conzequenee of something that has tran-pired this morn-
ing (which may or may not be material), I think it pro-
per that the inquiry should be adjourned until Monday
next. I think it better to adjourn to Monday in order
to render a further adjournment unnecessary. I think
that on Monday I shall be able to bring before you the
concluding evidence. I do not think there will be much
more evidence, hut th4re will be some.
The case was Caen adjourned to Monday next at 10
o'clock ; and in the meantime it is understood that a
still further analysis will be male bylthe medical men.

The LORD ADVOCATE was of opinion that
a bill of this kind ought not to be used with
a view to proselytism. He reminded the house
that they were dealing with Scotland, and he
thought the house should not thwart the object
they had in view. They were not dealing with this as
a Government question, but one relying on the voluntary
benevolence of the public of Scotland. With regard to
giving power to Roman Catholic priests to enter these
schools, he could not give his consent that it should be
by Parliamentary enactments without the consent of the
supporters of the schools. To the question of removal of
`Children from the Scotch schools to any other in England
he saw no objection, but he thought it required further
. .
roninderatien.
Mr. LIDDELL agreed in mach that had been said
by the hon. member for Dungarvon. Ke xecerred to a
reformatory school in the north of England with which
he was connected, and said that one of the rules per-
mitted the attendance of ministers of religion of all den o-
minations to give religious instruction to the children,
but' 'with the exception of a Roman Catholic
priest claiming that right on one occasion, no other
'minister had interafered with the religious instruction
-given in that school by the clergymen of the Church of
- England.
Mr. KINN4IRD suggested that the diffictilty
might be got over by the wealthy members of the
Roman, Catholic religion establishing a reformatory
school in Scotland for the reception of children of that
• persuasion. . . .

thing between half-past seven and eight o'clock. Mr.
Dove smelled of porter about five o'clock, and said he
was going to bed. He was not drunk. In the evening
at eight o'clock he went to the washstand for the medi•
tine. I had seen the paper which contained the poison
en the 18th of February. I did not see the word
"Poison" written on the paper. I did not have it in
my bands. I felt very much alarmed about the poison,
and I said so to Mrs. Dove, and she said, "You need
not be alarmed." The medicine given at eight o'clock
was the same in appearance as that given at half-past
three.
By the Coroner—lt cane out of the SIMI@ bottle for

By Mr. Barrett.—l do not remember who first men-

Mr. Dove taking out his watch and saying it was eight
o'clock, and that if Mrs. D,ve had her medicine at half-
past three o'clock, it was half an hour beyond the time
she should have taken it. Mrs. Dove sail nothing to
that. He took the glass after she had taken the medi-
cine, and washed it, saying, "I always wash out the
glass, for the medicine is such nasty stuff." He rubbed
her legs about a quarter of an hour .before that, and it
was then he kissed her. When Mr. Dove came home,
about five o'clock,-she then remarked hew long he had
beer, and he said, " I cannot go down to Leeds and
back in five minutes. You knee, I am a quick walker,
and put upon me." And when he came into the room
he said, " Mrs. Whithaw, I thought you were going
away at five o'clock," which I thought was very unkind
of 'him. I said I aas going, but that when Mr. Morley
came in and said Mrs. Dove might get up to tea she
asked the to stay with her, as she would make a better
tea if sheihad company. He said this to me before his

welcome his return. In this respect his conduct
stands out in most honourable contrast to that of
the paltry runaways from their plighted word who
were his fellows in exile. As far as we can express
the public opinion, we may very truly say that
everybody would be glad to hear that Mr-Smith
0 Brien was restored to his country and his friends.
We do not believe that there is any danger in such
a step, whatever his future conduct may be ; but,
at the same time, we most fully believe that Mr.
SLnith O'Brien would, by his future conduct, show
himself sensible of the leniency with which he bad
been treated. Only, if the favour be granted, let
all be generously and gracefully done. Let the
pardon be complete, and the past forgotten. That

Another unfortunate accident has occurred to Messrs.
Scott Russell and Co., the celebrated ship-builders, of
Millwall, Poplar, by the breaking out, yesterday after-
noon, on their premises, of another extensive fire, which
in a short space of time laid in ruins property valued at
some thousand pounds. The excitement caused in the
neighbourhood of Poplar, when the news arrived, was
very great, and the wives of workmen employed in the
yard ran frantically towards the spot, anxious to know
the fate of their husbaudß, whilst others went for mere
curiosity ; but before any one had time to reach the
spot from the main road the fire rushed out of the yard
high into the air, impressing those outside that a fire of
no small magnitude had taken place; and. the reflection of
the flames shone brilliantly on the river Thames, and
the lofty buildings on land, causing still greater excite-
ment to prevail in the district.
,The moment the discovery was made by persons em-
ployed in the yard, most of the workmen were sum-
moned together, and they resorted to various expedients
in order to present the spread of the flames, and in try-
ing to save as much property as was possible, but un-
fortunately the efforts made, owing to the great quan-
tity of property in the place, were crowned with com-
paratively little success. -
- The premises in which the disaster commenced were
of considerable extent, and covered a large area of
ground. They extended in one direction over 100 feet,
and were proportionably deep, the lower floor being
fitted up as a steam saw-mill, at an expense of several
thousand pounds. The floors over were used as the
steam planing mills and joiners' shops. The former
was also fitted up with machinery equilly as expensive

After some farther discussion, in which Mr. A. Hastie,
the Hon. Mr. Scott, and Mr. Dunlop took part,

A piercingly cold wind somewhat marred the enjoy-
ment of the sport. The Steeplechase, nevertheless, pos-
sessed sufficient attraction to draw together a► large at-
tendance of pleasure-folk. The above return of the
racing will show that the sport was in some respecte of
a very interesting character. Many unpleasant remarks,
however, were made with reference to the Hunters'
Stakes, for which Decamp came in first. An objection
was made to him on the ground that his jockey was not
" a gentleman rider accordiag to the articles." The ease
was brought before the stewards, who decided that the
objection was valid, and that Twin Shon Catti, who ran
second, and was heavily backed, was entitled to the
stakes. By a large majority of the betting men the deei-
sion was held to be very unjust.
The general business of the meeting was conducted
in a highly creditable manner. By strengthening the
list of attractions for the fir3t day by an additional
amount of "added money," the committee would mate-
rially improve the character of the sport.

The bill was read a second time .and ordered to be
committed pro forms to-morrow.

THE. DRAFTS ON BANKERS BILL.

SEIZURE OF ADULTERATED FLOUR AT GOOLE. --Atibe
Goole prtty sessions, on Saturday, Messrs. Rhodes Os
Roekett, millers, carrying on an extensive business
Snaith and Goole, were charge with having a large quo:,
tity of adulterated flour and meal on their premises on t",
Ist inst. Mr. Superintendent Burke stated that on tbsi
day he visited the defendants' premises, and on °of
millstone in the windmill he discovered a piece
white clay. In the flour mill he took samples out of r't3,
sack of each of Line lots of flour and meal. TIVS
samples bad been submitted to Mr. Wood and 3ji.rii
Dre.ser, analytical chemists, Leeds. Mr. Wood state
that in one lot which he had analyised he found 3 quartel
per cent, of alumina, which was equal to two per cent.°o
clay. More or less, he diF-covered the presence of the. stets
foreign substance in every lot except three. The substao.77
found in the mill, he said, was Nilicate of alumina,
bite clay, which is much used by paper-stainer!:
The alumina appeared to have been introduced jr
clay, and the effect would be to give the flour ,
fine colour. A lad named Hillary, employed at the Worl.l'
stated that he had token two pieces of the substance Pr,l;
duced (white clay), and had ground some to mix it in 1141"
flour and meal; he bad se en the miller mix it two or thrl
times. For the defence it was stated that samples °
the same flour had been analysed by another gentij;
man (Mr. Huggon, of Leeds), who was unable to detro,
any foreign substance in them. There was no prel
however, that these samples had been taken from tb,i
same sacks as those from which Mr. Burke had selectva
hi:. The magistrates fined the defendants 101. Of
coats, and ordered the 16 sacks of adulterated
found upon their premises to be sold for feeding sviiO4;
and the proceeds to be given to the rector of Goole 1°
dititribution among the poor.

On the reading of the notice for the second reading
of this bill, it was withdrawn.

NUISANCES REMOVAL (SCOTLAND) BILL.
On the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE, the
second reading of this bill was postponed to the 31st
instant.

wife spoke to him. He first asked by whose orders
eha , was up, and she said " Mr. Morley gave me
'cave." He turned to me, and said, "Did he ?" and I
answered him, `•Yes, and she is to have a mutton chop."
From tea time to his leaving at eight o'clock I heard no
unkind remarks!, 'but-he wam not in the room. He did
not take tea with us. He left the room, but before
doing so lie lay down on the rug in Mrs. Dove's room,
which I thought a strange thing. 'He remained so
about five-minutes, until Mrs. Fisher came in, when she
suggested to him to go to bed, and he went away, as I
believed, for that' purpose.
By,a Juror—l believe he gave her medicine before
Thursday, but I cannot remember any particular occa-
sion.

MUNICIPAL REFORM (SCOTLAND) BILL.
On the motion for the second reading of this bill,
Mr. EWART repeated the statements he made on
introducing it to the house, and the remedies he pro-
posed.
The LORD ADVOCATE opposed the measure.
The Royal burghs now sought to be made elective
were places thought too insignificant to be constituted
burghs under the Scotch Municipal Reform Act.
Mr. G. ANDERSON supported the second reading.
lie asked the Lord Advocate to allow the bill to be
read a second time, reserving his objection to it in com-
mittee.

BY' the Coroner.— Ile said he always washed the glass
put, because the medicine was nasty stuff.
At thiS stage of the proceedings Mr. Morley-and Mr.
Nunneley.were incidentally examined.
Mr. Morley (by the Coroner)—lf strychnia bad been
put into the medicine at eight o'clock it would not have
altered the appearance of the medicine in any way—
neither the colour nor the consist-13mm It would haie
altered the, taste.

Mr. DUNLOP said the burghs really existed, but
were self elected, and it was that which the present bill
proposed to deal with and make them elective by the
rate-payers. He supported the second reading.
The LORD ADVOCATE said that if this bill were
withdrawn he would take into consideration the ques-
tio,n, and endeavour to devise this session a bill for the
better management and good of these burghs.

The floors at the time of the outbreak contained pro-
perty roughly valeed at some thousand p muds sterling.
From the inquiries made. it appears that whilst all was
bustle and confusion in the yard, owing to the number of
men at work, some one cried out " Fire," when smoke
in dense volumes was perceived to issue -out of the
various apertures in the building. A number of buckets
of water were procured and thrown into the blnzig mass
during the brief time pending the arrival of the engine
belonging to the firin. This engine hm;ing arrived, it
was at once set to work, and copious etreiturs of water
were thrown upon and also into the building, but with-
out the least effect, and it was found absolutely necessary_
to send an express to town for the aid of the fire engines
of the brigade and West of England Office. With all
possible expedition the engines from Schoolhouse-lane
attended, and were quickly followed by those from
Wellclose-rquare, Jeffrey-square, Watling-street, White-
cross-street, Farringdon-street, and that of the West of
England from Waterloo-road, the whole beirg under
.the command of. Mr. Braidwood, superintendent of the
London Brigade ; Mr. Fogo, the foreman ; Mr. Ridges,
the engineer ; and Mr. Connorton, of the West of Eng-
land Office. Fortunately, a plentiful supply of water
was procured from the mains belonging to the East Lon-
don Company, and the firemen lost no time in getting to
work, when powerful streams of the opposing element
were continuously scattered over the conflagration, but
not the least impression could be made upon its vigour',
so that it became necessary at last to send for the two
steam-floating engines, which were at once despatched
towards the scene of mischief.

By• Mr. Barrett—Half a grain or less would materi-
ally alter the taste. It would make it a pure' bitter.
One 40-1000th part in water would produce a bitter taste.
The conversation I had with Mr. Dove as to the poison
he purchased was on the sth of March, according to a
memorandum I made at the time.
The Coroner here corrected an error which had been
made in some of the newspapers as to Mrs. Dove being
enceinte at the time of her death. No such evidence had
becu given, and he understood it was not the fact.

The bill was then withdrawn.
BANKRUPTCY (SCOTLAND) BILL.

The LORD ADVOCATE moved the second reading
of this bill, which was a consolidation of the bankrupt
law of that country, and its assimilation to the English
bankrupt laws.
The bill, after a short discussion, was read a second
time.

Mr. Barrett—Mr. Morley, was Mrs. Dove in a state
of pregnancy ?
Mr. Morley—No, certainly not.

BIRTHS.
OP A SON.

Mrs. Ann Fisher was next re-examined. She said—l
took some toast and frizzled bacon to Mrs. Dove for
brca,kfast on the Monday preceding her death, but I did
not see her take any part of it. I saw Mr. Dove give
her medicine more than once or twice during that week.
He generally washed the glass out. I have seen him do
that frequently. I cannot say how often. He has had
the medicine in one hand, and I have held a tambler
with water for her to drink. I saw him put a "sap" of
water in the glass and then throw it into the hand basin.
I. have no doubt about that. I cannot say that Mrs.
Dove was taken poOrly after the medicine was given
her. She was taken bad en the Friday night. I recol-
lect Mrs. Dove having spasms during the week.
cannot recollect whether she had them shortly after
taking• the. medicine. I was not always in the room. I
remember it was on Wedetesday or Thursday morning
.Mr. Dove called me up to her. I gave her medicine
once. It was on Tuesday or Wednesday. The spasms
were on her at the time. I cannot remember what colour
it was, whether it was brown or what. It was thick. All
her medicine was. A draught was takers on Friday
night. I cannot say what time it was. It might be
ten o'clock. Mr. Dove gave it to her. It was rather a
lighter colour than her medicine had been. Ido not re-
collect whether ho washed that glass out. Mrs. Dove
did not, that I recollect, say anything. As far as I can
recollect it was an hour and a half after that Mrs. Dove
was taken ill. It was about half-past eleven she was
taken ill.

The fire, daring the time thus lost, contineed to spread
With the graate4 impetuosity, seizing upon everything
of an inflammable character, until the wholeof the work-
shops connected with the mills, the joiners' and waning-
houses, as well as the mills,' presented nothing but one
treniendbus sheet of flame. The firemen, however, kept
to ,their post in spite of the intense beat, and eventually
they succeeded in getting the fire so far under as to allay
all apprehension of any fUrther extension of mischief,
when messengers were despatched to stop the new
floating engine, which was done as she arrived off the
Tower-stairs. . •
Eventually the fire was entirely extinguished, but not
until the mills, the machinery, the joiners' houses, and
planing shops were destroyed, aiel the contents, with
the exception of the small portion saved, consumed.
The loss is necessarily very heavy, the machinery
alone will cost some thousand pounds to repair.
As to the origin of the fire, nothing positive could be
known; The present makes the third extensive fire that
has taken place in the yard since 1854 ; the three having
sacrificed property valued at several hundred thousand
pounds.
It is but right to state, in order to satisfy the public
mind, that the leviathan ship now building in the same
'yard, owing to the great distance from the scene of the
fire, has not received the least injury, and the work will
not be iu the least retarded by the present disastrous
event. The fire.cock on the premises tendered also.
great assistance to the firemen, and the arrangements of
the police were also very efficient in keeping the crowd
back.

The Coroner here referred to the evidence given by this
witness on a former day, from which it appeared that she
had stated that Mr. Dove called her up earlier. She now
said I was called up about ten o'clock. Mrs. Dove was
taken had about half an hour atter she bast taken the
medicine. Mr,' Dove left the house soon after Mrs.
Dove was taken ill. He said he was going to Mr. Mot,
lers for some medicine. I was not in the room When
Mrs. Dove was taken ill. I think Mr. Dove left the
house about eight o'clock. I believe that was the hour
because he has said so himself since Mrs. Rave's death.
He was in liquor all the eveninv. When I went up-
t take about half-past eight Mrs, Dove was attacked witk
spasms, and Mr. Dove migtrt then.have been•gone out
