TIIE PIICENIX TRIALS.

DUBLIN, FRIDAY.,
The trial of O'Sullivan was resumed yesterday
at Tralee. Prior to the statement of the Solicitor-
General for the prosecution,
Mr. Coffey intimated that he had received a
letter from the prisoner, which left him no alterna-
tive but to withdraw from further acting as
counsel for the defence.
A discussion ensued as to whether the letter
should be read in open court.
The Solicitor-General objected to its being read
in the presence of the jury, or published pending
the trial.
Baron Greene said he had read the letter, and it
ought not to be published. It should be regarded
as a confidential communication between the pri-
soner and his counsel.
The Solicitor-General—I understand that to be
an order of the Court.
Baron Greene assented.
The Solicitor-General said he gave notice that if
anything were done to the contrary he would take
such steps, under his lordship's direction, as he
might be advised.
Baron Greene—ln my opinion the publication
of that letter would be a contempt of court and a
violation of the Ittw, and an offence which would
subject the party guilty of it to a severe penalty.
The Solicito.,--General will avail himself of the law in
case it bf, violated ; and as far as depends on any
power of mine I shall be very happy to assist the
la.

Messrs. Coffey, Nelligan, and John O'llagan,
and the prisoner's attorney then retired from the
court.
The jury were then recalled, and
The Sohcitor-General proceeded to state the case
for the prosecution, and in the course of his obser-
vations said that amongst the persons arrested in
Kerry and Cork on charges such as that for which
the prisoner was now on trial, were seven national
schoolmasters, three attorney's .elerks, a well paid
grocer's assistant, the parties not being of the lowest
class, and none of them having any connection
whatever with land. He vindicated the proclama-
tion issued by the Lord Lieutenant, which; he said,
had had the effect of deterring persons from partici-
pation in the conspiracy, and converting what had
been previously a compact; well•knit- confederacy
into a rope of sand, which fell into the atoms of
which it was composed, such a result being what
always followed where guilt was the sole bond of
union between parties. The more timid abandoned
the confederacy altogether—the more unscrupulous
determined to sacrifice their Companions—and the
result had been that about 30 arrests in all had been
made. The details of the learned gentleman's ad-
dress were so much the same as those given on the
last trial that repetition is unnecessary. In con-
clusion he said that in the discharge of the painful
duty which devolved upon him he trusted he had
satisfied them that the course taken by the govern-
ment was a wise and proper one, and that they
could not have overlooked the evidences of con-
spiracy which had been laid before them. He had
endeavoured carefully to abstain from stating to the
jury anything that he was not prepared to prove.
Baron Greene said that before the evidence pro-
ceeded he wished to ask the prisoner if he desired
to have an opportunity. of 'reconsidering 'his deter.
mination. -If so ha. -would give him a reasonable
time to get counsel.
The Prisoner said—No, under the circumstances.
Daniel Sullivan (Goulah), the approver, was then
sworn and examined by Mr. Hickson,.Q.C.
The prisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to
ten years' penal servituide.

THE BELFAST TRIALS.
At the assizes in Belfast, yesterday, Henry
Smith, Bernard Smith, James Donahy, Patrick
Kelly, James Kelly, Francis M‘GOuran; William
Laverty, William Finnegan, David M'Veigh, Hugh
Finlay, John Finlay, Daniel M'Kenna, Daniel
Barr, and William John Macauley, were then put
forward and indicted for that they, and each of
them, belonged to an unlawful society, and that
there was an illegal secret society in Belfast from
Ist September, 1839, until the Ist October, 1856,
and that society did continue up to the 12th of
December, 1858, having secret signs and passwords,
and that hey and each of them belonged to that
society up to the 12th of December, 1858, when
arrested, and were thereby guilty of unlawful con-
federacy and combination. There were several
other counts varying the indictment and quoting
the words used as passwords by the society of
which the traverser were charged with being
members, and setting forth that the prisoners had
corresponded with each other, and with others,
thereby being guilty of unlawful confederacy and
combination.

The prisoners pleaded not guilty.
A jury having been sworn, Sir Thomas Staples,
Q.C., stated the case for the Crown.
A great deal of interest attached to some disclo-
sures as to the fact of if note having been written
by the approver Kelly, whilst in gaol, addressed to
a younger brother. This note was traced t) the
possession of the Crown, by whom it was not pro-
duced, and after considerable debate the judge
ruled that it was competent to give secondary evi•
dence of its nature and import. The constabulary who
made the arrest of the prisoners were examined,
and identified the traversers, as did Mrs. Mackay,
in whose house the arrests took place, and the
servants who were in the house at the times
Sir Thomas Staples then proposed an adjourn-
ment of the trial till next morning, which was
agreed to, and the jury, on the ground of the
charge being for misdemeanour, were permitted to
return to their homes, to reassemble at a quarter
past nine this (Friday) morning.

[BY BRITISH AND IRISH MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.]
BELFAST, SATURDAY.
The jury having been locked up for the night,
and not being able to agree, were discharged.
Tuesday has been fixed for again trying the pri-
soners, and Monday to hear any application on
affidavit against the trial being proceeded with at
the present assizes.

T.HE LATE MARQUIS OF WATERFORD.

The death of this excellent nobleman has cast a
deep gloom over all classes in the south of Ireland,
where he was best known as an indulgent resident
landlord and a model country gentleman. The
following additional particulars of the sad accident
by which he lost his life are furnished by the
Clonmel Chronicle, which arrived this morning :
"The Marquis's foxhounds were to meet at Castlemorris,
in the county of Kilkenny, and within a few miles of Car-
rick-on-Suir, and two of his lordship's best hunters, with
the hounds, were sent on as usual at an early hour from
Curraghmore to the place of meeting. At about 11 o'clock
Lord Waterford, having breakfasted, mounted a car-
riage and pair, and with reins in hand dashed out of the
courtyard in his accustomed splendid style. On he drove
through that delightful demesne, but for the last time At
Castlemorris a numerous field, numbering a great many of
the well-known resident admirers of the sport, awaited the
noble lord's arrival, to welcome him again to his favourite
enjoyment. Two foxes had been killed, and on a third run
Lord Waterford and about 15 gentlemen who remained to the
close started from Corbally towards Dowlan-hill, his lordship
seated on his favourite hunter, May Boy, whichho purchased
about a year ago from the Master of the Meath hounds. On
coming to a narrow by-road near the mountain grove, and
after passing through a grass field, the huntsman in advance,
J. Ryan, called out to Lord Waterford, who was approach-
ing a small fence about three feet high, and then pulled up
the hunter, in order to allow the animal to step over it.
My lord,' said Ryan, there is a bit of a gripe at the other
side' (the road side of the ditch). ' Oh, never mind,' said
the Marquis, as his horse got his forefeet over easily, but at
the outer side of the gripe some loosO stones caused the
animal to fall forward on its knees, throwing, the Marquis
forward on one side of its neck. He remained in that posi-
tion two or three moments, but, the horse not recovering
itself, Lord Watorford fell out of the saddle sideways, and
came down upon kis head on the road—a very slight fall,
but yet unhappily sufficient to cause dislocation of the neck,
and probably concussion of the brain, causing almost imme-
diate death. Johnny Ryan, the steeplechaser, rider, and
George Thompson, groom, saw his Lordship fall, dis-
mounted, and while the former held the dying nobleman's
head on his breast, and the latter chafed his hands, the
Marquis ceased to breathe. Captain Jephson and Dr.
O'Ryan were instantaneously on the spot, with the hunts-
man, and brandy was poured into his mouth and externally
applied, but animation returned not ; he was dead. The •
remainder of the field returned in twenty minutes—after
the deathof the third fox—to learn with dismay the sad ac-
cident which had taken place. The body, having been
placed on a bier, was conveyed to the road, as no car could
get up the lane, and there it was laid on a break-carriage
belonging to Lord Bessborough, and slowly the mournful
group wended their way to Curraghmore, where it arrived
at about nine o'clock last night. The fearfully sad intelli-
gence was broken to the bereaved Marchioness, who awaited
his Lordship's returning ; but who can describe her Lady-
ship's feelings as she listened to the suppressed grief and
the strange stifled sounds in the courtyard below on that
painful occasion, while bearing the remains of a deeply be-
loved husband into his late joyous residence ? Last night
the Marchioness of Waterford's mother, Lady Stuart de
Rothesay ; the heir to the title and estates, the Rev. Lord
John Beresford, now fourth Marquis of Waterford ; and
the Earl of Shrewsbury were telegraphed for, and their •
arrival was hourly expected when we left Curraghmore.
It is supposed that the mortal remains of the deceased lord
will be interred in the family vault at Clonegam churchyard
—on the estate—on Monday or Tuesday next."

a quarter of an hour afterwards she was alongside the dis-
tressed vessel, which was a sloop from Liverpool to Ram-
say with a general cargo. She had broken her boom, split
her mainsail, and her small boat had been stove in. At the
request of the master two of the lifeboat's crew boarded the
sloop to assist him to bring his vessel to a port of safety.
Fortunately the weather moderated considerably, otherwise
the vessel must have become a total wreck, as she was
rapidly driving on shore when the lifeboat boarded her.
Her crew felt very grateful for the timely assistance ren-
dered there. They were Maim:ten, and entirely ignorant
of this mt.

Last evening a lecture was delivered at this in-
stitution by Captain Tyler of the Royal Engineers,
on " The Rifle and the Spade, 'or the Future of
Field Operations." The kettn'er commenced by
referring to, the three divisions under which the
art of war might be considered ; of—first, siege
operations ; s,econdly, field operations ; and thirdly,
the defence of fortresses, and the modes of con-
struction to be adopted in defensive works. The
influence of the modern rifle might be
expected to produce important effects upon
each of thew respectively. The subject as connected
with siege operations had been considered by Capt.
Tyler in a previous lecture ; it was treated with
reference to field operations on the present occasion ;
and its application to the third of these headings
was reserved for a future opportunity. A good deal
of discussion had taken place at home and abroad
as to the probable effect of these new rifles upon
future warfare ; and a warm controversy had more
particularly been carried on in this country as: to

at particular distances, and the lecturer contended
that field artillery could no longer stand against
them. The relative merits and capabilities of
modern rifles and field artillery were considered at
some length, the lecturer remarking that the
Armstrong gun, whose satisfactory performances
had been brought to light subsequently to the pre-
vious discussion, did not make so much difference
in this particular question as might be expected.
Its powers to produce accurate effects' at long ranges
Were very great ; but it would not be able to ido
much more 'than other guns in keeping off Any
wholly or partially concealed skirmishers wb.o might
be scattered along its front or around its flanks, and,
its great powers would not, under ordinary circum-
°stances, be profitably employed in a contest with
skirmishers- at small arm ranges. The improve-
ments which had been attempted hitherto in
spherical case shot did. not appear to have been
attended with all the success that could be desired,
though great ingenuity had been displayed in them.
It remained to be seen whether missiles of an analo-
gous nature, some of which had already been con-
structed, could bemore-successfully_employed with
the Armstrong or any other improved gun. This
was probable, and most important results might be
derived from them, under many circumstances,
when the range was accurately known or the effects
could be satisfactorily observed. Improvements
generally were travelling in the direction of in-
creased power and precision both in artillery and
small arms, and any means in which large quanti-
ties of expensive ammunition were employed with
comparatively small or uncertain results would neces-
sarily give way to some extent before these quali-
ties. The best artillery we could procure, also, was
urgently required for the defence of important
points on our coasts, and it would be more than
ever wanted for general use, in consequence of the
increased use of entrenchments that would result
from the -common employment of the rifle. The
necessity for. such . entrenchments had become
obvious. No body of troops contending against an
enemy armed with 'the improved weapons of modern
times would be safe when rifled guns and muskets
came into full use so long as they were uncovered,
and so long as hostile sharpshooters could approach
within half a mile, or hostile field guns within
three times the distance ofthern. It would, not be
possible efficiently:to protect the masses by means
of. skirmishers sent out for the purpose; soldiers
Could carry no armour that would save them from
the effects of such weapons ; and earthen parapets,
combined with natural obstacles, were the only
means by which future armies 'could hope to plaee
themselves beyond the math of continual annoy-
ance, and even. of gradual annihilation. Defensive
works, so constructed as not to impede subsequent
offensive operations, would be required for the pro-
tection of defensive positions, and similar works
would even be required in aid of offensive opera
tions. When a post was occupied, it must be en- •
trenched in order to be maintained ; when a piece
of ground was acquired from the enemy which it
was important to hold, it would be useful, if not
indispensable, to entrench it, in order that it might
serve as a base from which further. advances might
be made;. and any works that were seized would
require to have their defences reversed in the
shortest possible time. In fact, field engineering
must, in consequence of these rifle improvements,
enter more and more into combination with Military
tactics; facilities for the employment of the spade
becoming of greater importance in proportion
as the range and accuracy of the soldier's
musket and of heavy guns, were practically
increased. At present our sappers, 3,000 rank
and file, besides 500 in India, were few in number
for the multifarious occupations demanded of
them ; our infantry but insufficiently instructed
in such duties. We could not expect to make the
most of our rifles, or to find ourselves in the posi-
tion which we ought to assume in future warfare,
without a better instructed digging infantry, and a
vastly increased force of sappers. Without putting
the rifle into the hands of the people, as it was
called, there would be no difficulty in organising,
and in keeping up, a body of 100,000 rifle volun-
teers, from a class who would be alike ready to
protect us from internal disturbance or from foreign
invasion. With these men to harass the flanks and
rear of an invading army, and to oppose their ad-
vanee, in conjunction with the regular troops and
militia, from a series of entrenchments, provided
by a sufficient number of sappers, the country might
be disputed mile by mile by an invading army, in
a manner that would prevent the possibility of its
advance. If the Thames were protected, and our
arsenals and dockyards secured by suitable fortifi-
cations, adapted to modern weapons, and if the
above means were provided, we should be not only
exempted from all fear of the results of a hostile
invasion, but we should go very far to prevent such
a measure being even contemplated. Under pre-
sent circumstances we could not be without appre-
hension as to the first results of any invasion which
might be suddenly attempted; and we were in a
great measure dependent on our fleets for the de-
fence of our coasts; and which were expected to
maintain our naval supremacy in every part of the
world.

as possible. Had the flames spread the whole must have
been burnt.

was to have proceeded to Birmingham by an early train,
but was so drunk when he presented himself at the Bcfek-
ing-office, that ho was not allowed to go. He came to• the
station again at a late hour, and while waiting for a train,
leaned against a gate at the top of a stone staircase, leading
tp some of the company's offices. The gate flew open, and
he was precipitated head foremost to the bottom. When
picked up he was found to be dying, having in the fall dm-

which sailed from Liverpool on the 16th of November in
charge of Surgeon Superintendent Patrick Cuthane, with 59
married couples, 92 single men, 84 single women, 49 boys
between the ages of 1 and 12, 56 girls between the same
ages, six male and seven female infants, making a total of
412 souls, equal to 3462 statute adults, arrived at Port
Elizabeth, Algoa Bay, Cape of Good Hope, on the 23d of
January. Five deaths (all young children), and four births
occurred during the voyage.
FOREIGN OFFICE MESSENGERS.—Papers relating
to the emoluments of her Majesty's foreign service messen-
gers attached to the Foreign-office have just been issued.
The subject was opened last September in a circular to her
Majesty's Ministers abroad, which,, after adducing the
fact that the expenditure in 1856-7 (a time of peace), had
increased to £22,243 a-year, suggested certain means of
reforming the abuse. Lord Malmesbury drew up a memo-
randum on the subject in November, wherein he considers
that the average rate of emolument of each messenger (£soo
a-year) is far too high a rate of remumeration for their ser-
vices. His lordship thinks that the whole system of mes-
senger emoluments should be revised, and that instead of
their being made up of three items salary, board-
wages, and mileage profit—a fixed sum as salary should
be paid to each messenger, and nothing besides. This
salary his lordship fixed at £5OO, the actual expense of
travelling alone being allowed ; he also proposed to reduce
the number of messengers to 15. Of course, the messen-
gers, like all others interested in the maintenance of exist-
ing abuses, opposed this reform in a "memorial," praying
Lord Malmesbury so to vary his minute of the 4th of
November, as that an allowance adequate to the messen-
gers' hotel bill and other incidental expenses, 13s. 4d.,
while on duty abroad, be added to the salary of £5OO a
year. The messengers make out that their ordinary daily
expenses at the hotels of the principal cities of Europe are
as follows--viz :—ln Paris, 19s. 44d. (sterling) ; Madrid,
245. 2d. ; Berlin, 20s. ; Naples, 255. St. Petersburg,
2ls. 4d. ; Vienna, 225. 4d. ' • and in Rome, 225. Ild. Lord
Malmesbury vindicated his reform in a memorandum,
dated the 10th of December, 1858, but so far conceded
to the Messengers as to grant them an addition to the £5OO
salary, equivalent to a daily allowance of 2s. 6d., or 3f., on
an estimated detention abroad of about 200 days in the
course of the year. This will make the whole payment
£525 a year to each Messenger. The new arrangement was
to take effect at the commeueemeht of the new year (1659).

" The Italian lecturer arrived here yesterday. The nature
of his opinions, or assumed opinions, and mission may be
guessed from this fact—that he was received by the ultra-
Protestant saint, Brownrigg. He lectured in the evening at
the school in Merchants'-road. The subject, of course, was
Italy and the Papacy, and the usual ardent declamation
marked his discourse. His auditory was of the lowest class,
and a considerable number of boys who assembled in the
neighbourhood of the conventicle kept up a chorus of shout-
ing. This day the apostle of discord proceeded through the
city, accompanied by Mr. Brownrigg, and met with rather
a warm reception. This region is much too Catholic for
these brothers. The saints were roughly handled, and
Gavazzi was obliged to take refuge in the Police. barracks.
" 4 o'clock p.m.—The excitement has by this time risen
to a high pitch among the lower order of the populace, and
a number of Protestant clergymen and Scripture readers
who were assembled with Gavazzi were hooted and pelted at
with stones, sods of turf, and every description of missiles.
The Rev. INlessrs. Ashe, Cardwell, Lewis, and M‘Manus
received very severe treatment. A Scripture reader
named O'Connor received two blows from stones on the
head, from which he is bleeding profusely; he took refuge
in a shop, but the cries of the mob were so violent that he
was ejected into the street, and under the shelter of a single
policeman ran for his life to the police-barrack, where he is
receiving medical attendance. The Rev. Mr. Caldwell, who
was with him, ran off through the crowd, and getting a
little in advance of them found shelter within the county
gaol. In the meantime, Gavazzi, who had taken shelter
somewhere that no one knew where but himself, issued
forth, and, accompanied by a clergyman, made a race out
towards the west for the residence of the Rev. Mr. Brown-
rigg, and was pursued by the great body of the infuriated
crowd; but he had made his appearance in retreat before
they had heard of it. As soon as they did, they rushed down in
that direction, but by the judicious arrangements of the
police authorities they were effectually cut off from pursuing
him, which if they had succeeded in doing, the results
would have been desperate, if not fatal. Forty policemen,
with fixed bayonets, were drawn across the end of Domi-
nick-street. adjoining Bridge-street, one facing in the di-
rection of Claddagh, to prevent the wild denizens of that
locality from joining the populace in town; the other facing
into town, to prevent the pursuit of Gavazzi. Fortunately,
the Wooden-bridge was closed of access to the west, the
drawbridge being out of repair, and it is thought Gavazzi is
safely housed at the hour we write. The Rev. Mr. Mansell
escaped without hurt, though he was obliged to be escorted
home by Sergeant Mulville. Where all the others have
taken shelter we have not ascertained. The disturbance,
seems now clearly over, at the hour we are going to press,
but the excitement continues very high."

deceased went down and came up again, being
unable to endure the heat. During this time both
Mitchell and Buchanan went down in the engine-
room, and they probably saw the deceased Landor
again go upon deck. When he went up this
last time Mitchell, who was in the engine-room,
called to another person named William Buchanan,
also a stoker, and told him to get some ropeyarn.
After this the prisoner went on deck, and William
Buchanan went to get the ropeyarn. On deck he
found the deceased lying down, complaining of the
heat, and protesting that he could not stand it.
John Buchanan, the chief, and Mitchell, the second
engineer, insisted upon his going down, and
Buchanan ordered Mitchell to take him down and
tie him below. He was taken down by Mitchell,
with the assistance of another man, into the fore
stokehole. Thedeceased cried that it would kill
him, and uttered many moving expressions which.
he (the learned counsel) would not repeat. He re-
sisted, but Mitchell broke his hand away from the
iron to which he clung; forced him down the for-
ward stokehole, tied his arms behind him, and
passing the ropeyarn, which he got from Buchanan,
round his waist, fastened him to the ladder or
stairs below the stokehole (the position was illus-
trated by a model) within about three feet of the
nearest furnace, there being six furnaces in this
part of the vessel. The learned counsel then de-
scribed the model, pointing out that between the
boilers was a passage three feet wide, leading
through the engine-room into the after stokehole.
After Mitchell had tied the deceased he went into
the engine-room, and there walked backwards and
forwards. The engine-room, having a larger hatch
over it, was much cooler than the fore stokehole,
and from thence Mitchell could see the deceased
tied at the foot of the ladder. The deceased, when
tied, complained and cried out, his cries being heard
in the forecastle. He struggled and writhed, and
addressed himself first to man and afterwards to
God until his voice became fainter and fainter, and
he was seen to fall by those who looked down the
hatchway. He must have remained tied there from
half an hour to three quarters. There were two
firings up in the time ; and on the second occasion
of firing the deceased was seen to swing round and
fall with his head towards the furnace, so that the
fireman was obliged to move him away with
his knees in order to open the furnace
door. The fireman saw that he was in
an insensible state, and when he had finished his
duty he went into the engine-room and informed
the second engineer of what had taken place.
Mitchell came, looked at the deceased, went up the
ladder, and shortly afterwards returned with the
chief engineer and the doctor. They saw the de-
ceased, who was insensible, and unable to move, and
had been carried on deck, where he lay gasping for
breath. The doctor ordered his head to be bathed
with cold water; but respiration became slower,
and at last ceased altogether. Means were taken
by the doctor to promote artificial respiration by
rolling him over on his side, but all too late, for the
man was dead. He was buried in the usual way,
and the ship went on its coarse, arriving at Liver-
pool in March last. On the day after the arrival
some of the crew complained to the police, and both
Buchanan and Mitchell were apprehended.
Mitchell, when arrested, said that whatever he had
done was by order of his superior, and it was not
improbable that this would be alleged in his de7
fence. It would probably also be made to appear
that an opinion prevailed, and was perhaps shared
in by the prisoner, that the deceased was "skulk-
ing,' or shirking his work; but he (the learned
counsel) believed they would find that upon this
occasion at least there was no pretence, but an
honest disability to perform the work he was set to
do. But, even if he had been skulking, it did not
follow that the prisoner or Buchanan had a right
to punish him, or at any rate in the manner de-
scribed. The master of the vessel alone had a right
to inflict such punishment as was required. Even
had the prisoner or Buchanan the right of punish-
ment, this kind of punishment and to this extent
ought not to have been inflicted. It might be
alleged that the jury could not believe that Mitchell
intended to kill the man, but even if they should
be of this opinion it would not make any difference
in the crime now laid to his charge ; for it was not
necessary, in order to constitute the crime, that the
person who killed the deceased should have intended
to kill him. If he intended to do him a serious bodily
harm dangerous to life, and did a serious bodily
harm, in consequence of which the man died, the
culprit was guilty of the capital offence, even if he
did not intend to kill. If the prisoner had executed
an order which he felt bound to obey, although
the order was an illegal one, it would make no
difference in the crime, though it might entitle the
prisoner, perhaps, to somo commiseration. But
there were some circumstances from which he be-
lieved the jury would find that the idea of tying
the deceased below originated with the prisoner,
and that he had threatened to " chain him down"
there before any order was given. He believed
they would find that the prisoner had provided
ropes before any order was given ; that the whole
time the deceased was confined there Mitchell was
was walking near him, where he must have seen
and heard him ; and that, although one word from
the prisoner would have relieved the sufferer, that
word was not spoken, nor any effort of relief made
until he was told that " Tom was dead." The
learned counsel said he should call, in order to
prove these facts, many of the crew, though not all
of them, who were examined before the magis-
trates ; and though, doubtless, as must be expected
from persons in this rank in life, their statements
would not coincide exactly as to time and the order
of events, it would be for the discrimination and
good sense of the jury to determine whether they

Thomas Coxson, examined by Mr. Overend—
Saw the deceased come up on deck out of the stoke-
hole and lie -on deck. Saw the chief engineer come
up to him and tell deceased he was loafing. Saw
Buchanan kick him, and heard Mitchell say to
him, " You trash, if you won't work you shall
be fastened down your whole watch and the next
watch after it." He was taken down, and after-
wards began to cry out, " Oh, Lord, save me ! Oh,
Christ, save me! What will become of my poor
wife and family ?" Saw deceased brought on deck
and rolled by order of the doctor.
Charles Theodore Schmidt said he was a doctor
on board the Bogota, and examined deceased the
day he died. Death, he believed, was caused by
apoplexy, and the treatment which the deceased
had experienced would be likely to precipitate
apoplexy.
Mr. Brett addressed the jury for the defence.
His Lordship directed the jury that if a man did
what, according to ordinary experience, was calcu-
lated to endanger the life of another, that would be
murder ; but if they were not satisfied that the
circumstances were of that kind, and thought there
was no intention to injure the man and death resulted,
that would be manslaughter. It had been urged by
the learned counsel for the defence that such punish-
ments were necessary for the proper discipline of the
ship, and that without them the commercial ma-
rine would be destroyed ; but there was nothing
in the evidence to lead to that conclusion ; and if
inferior officers could be allowed to inflict such
punishments without the authority of the captain,
every petty officer in the ship would exercise au-
thority, and there would be no head. There was
no power to interfere with the liberty of a man on
board a ship, except by the direct command of the
captain. If the jury thought the death arose from
natural causes only, they would acquit the prisoner
The jury, after a few minutes' consultation,
found the prisoner guilty of manslaugher.
The prisoner said he acted only under the
strictest orders of his superior officer, and hail no
intention to injure the deceased, and did not think
he could have done so, as he worked himself in a
hotter place, and the deceased was a healthy man.
His Lordship, in passing sentence, said he must
mark his estimation of the cruelty of the punish-
ment inflicted on the deceased by a severe sentence.
If he was wrong, he might be set right. The pri-
soner, when he found the man insensible, instead
of instantly cutting him down, had gone for orders
to his superior officer, under that " accursed
system" of discipline said to exist on board our
merchant ships and boldly defended, and which
must be rooted out by the law, of each petty officer
looking for orders to the officer above him only.
The sentence of the Court was that he be sent to
penal servitude for 15 years.
The court was densely crowded throughout the
day, and the case was not concluded until half
past 89'cloek.

CONFESSION OF A MIIRDER NEARLY FORTY-THREE
YEARS AGO.—A man named Sismey died at Castor last
week, and whilst on his death-bed he confessed to having
participated in the murder and robbery of Thomas French,
had been to Peterborough market to sell some sheep for
a shepherd, of
Mr. Gaskill, of Wansford, and was murdered on his way
home, the last seen of him at public-house at
alive being a
Thoipe, which place he left in company with Sismey and
two men (since dead)
named Browitt and Burbidge, of
Thornhaugh. Sismey says that he, Browitt, and Burbidge,
murdered French by beating him on. the head with hedge
