till circumstances, deprecate and oppose, in every
canonical and constitutional way, any such inter.
Terence. . . .

Supreme Pontiff as visitfle Head of the Church, we
do not conceive that our apprehensions for the safety

Frances Colvill, who died in cousequence at taking
a gentility of arsenic. The deceased; who was about
twenty-four years of age, was a straw-hat manufac•
turer and mantas-maker in that town. ft appeared
she had received the addresses of a young man tot'
some time; but he at length perCeiving in irritability
of temper in her, which' wet uncongeniil with his
own, and with his views of future happinesS, about
three months since he altan4oned all his intentions
concerning her, forrried a
.similar connection with
no!:.er Olng woman, and a fro days sitter was
married. This I)st act, it *Could appeer„unaeuted
the mind of the deceased, end she conceived a dread-
ful act of revenge. On Thyrsdty morning last, she
pu c•lased a penknife, and in doing so, requested to
have one as long in the blade as possible. She then
went to a neighbour's house, and tent a message
to the young man to come thither, us a Gentleman
wished to speak to him. Wlrw he came, he sail, "
sin going to London—aid you not drink with me ?"
He just tasted of the cup, and returned it.—She
said, " f wish it had been pri=on—l understand (she
continued)'you are married; are you not sorry for
it?" He replied, " No." Instantly she shuffled
the penknife from under her gown-sleeve, and made
a blow at him, inflicting a sleep wound on the
shoulder. The knife Warbroken three parts off by
the violence of the thrust ; but with the remaining
part she continued to strike at his head, until, by
his efforts, she was disarmed. She then left the
house, proceeded to a druggist's shop, and bought a
quantity of arsenic (under pretence that it was to
poison rats), and went to her home, at Green's-
field, Greeo-lane. There she put the arsenic into a
cup, filled it up from the pump, and drank the prin-
cipal part of the contents. In a few minutes after-
wards she informed her parents Mid neighbours of

but she had taken so large a quantity of the poison,
that it was found impossible to make her void the
whole of it from her stomach.—At half-past five
in the evening she died. Coroner's Verdict—)
Lunacy.
