ASSIZES.

• MAIDSTONE, MARCH 23.
Mr. GARROW went into thet, Crown Court last
night, and tried prisoners. This morning only three
cases were lett.for Mr. Justice HEATH to dispose of.
William Colman was indicted for the wilful murder
of Thomas Jones, on the 29th of August last, in the
parish of Woolwich, by giving him several stabs in
the neck and breast with a knife. -
The prisoner was a young man, aged only twenty,
and both himself and the deceased were convicts on
board the hulks at Woolwich. The case was proved
by two other convicts, and the facts they stated were
as follow :—A brick had, a night or two before,
been thrown at one of the officers of the convicts, and
the prisoner suspected that the deceased had given
information that he was the man who had committed
the offence, and being incensed at the deceased, he
repeatedly swore he would be revenged of him...—.
They were, however, apparently reconciled, shook
hands, and drank together ; the deceased also helped
the prisoner into bed, as he was incommoded by
being loaded with very heavy irons. It appeared,
however, that the prisoner still chetisjlecf his purpose
of revenge, for after remaining in bed for some time,
when he supposed all about him were asleep, he
softly got out of bed, and went to a place where he
knew the knife was kept, which he got ; he then stole
to the bed of the deceased, and stabbed him in the
throat and breast in the most determined manner.—
The wounds he gave were instantly mortal. He was,
however, observed to have got out of bed, and to go
to place where the knife was, by two of the con-
victs who gave evidence against him.
.The Jary found him guilty, and the Learned Judge
immediately pronounced sentence. He was left for
execution on Monday morning.
Jeroxe Hogo was indicted for the wilful murder of
Francis Woitkowaiach, at Gillingham, near Chatham,
en the 14th of August last. The prisoner was a
Spanish seaman, and the deceased also a foreign sea-
man. It appeared that they had a quarrel about a
table cloth, and in the heat of passion the prisoner
stabbed the deceased with a knife. Hr was found
guilty of manslaughter, and was sentenced to one
year's imprisonment.—These cases were finished be-
fore ten this morning, and the Assizes concluded.
