Tea FUNDS.—Tbe reduction in the price of grain,
and some very large purchases yesterday. had the effect
emitting a rise in the Funds. Confidence is very ge-
serally restored in the market, and the report of the int-
revement in the ensuing quarters' revenue continues to
gels ground, and has a very powerful effect in preserv-
ing the price of the stocks. This day the November
accoestopens, and those who are inclined are enabled
to carry over their stock. Consols have been done this
morning at 77 for the Account. This rise is ascribed to
the present favourable aspect of the approaching Ac-
count, which takes place on the 16th instant.
Another subscription of 2001. for Sir Robert Wilson

We regret to state that the Countess Grey is seri-
ously indisposed at the seat of the Noble Earl, at
Hetrick.
Her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta is now on
a visit to her Royal sister, the Queen Dowager of War-
temherg, at her Majesty's seat near Stntgard.
Extract of a letter from Drogheda, dated Sept. 23 :
His Majesty's late visit to Ireland is likely to
prove beneficial in more ways than one. What think
you of a union between the --, son of an Eng-
lish Earl, and the danghter of a very respectable per-
son in trade in this town ? She is both young and
pretty, and will not disgrace the situation good fortune
has thrown in her way. In my opinion, it is better
I. resort to the merchant's store, than the stage, for a
wife. We are all delighted at the idea."
Lord Beresford, it appears, never held the office of
Capitan Mor, as stated in some of the English papers.
The statement was copied from a Portuguese journal
which gave an account of the abolition of the office.
Extract of a letter from Lisbon, dated Sept. 14:—
It has been determined that a new silver eels of the
value of Mrs. (nearly 25.) shall be streek ;—these
coins ae to be called constitutionals. On the 13th
ins ant, the B shop of Rivas, a member of the Cortes,
was interr •d with much form, in the Church of
saint Dona'niek. To-morrow a splendid subscrip-
tion dinner is to be given to the soldiers in garri-
son bore. It is to take place in the public gardens,
which have been fitted up with great taste for the
occasion. The trees are to be hung with transpa-
rent lamps, to be lighted in the evening. On the same
day, the first stone of a national monument, to comme-
morate the revolution, is to be laid in Rocio-square. The
windows of this square are already hung with scarlet silk
fringed with gold. Only well-dressed persons are to be
admitted to the gardens on the occasion.—All the
Portuguese vessels in the harbour are to fire a royal
salute; those vessels that have not guns are to be
supplied from the arsenal.—A splendid monument is
erecting in the square, now called the Square of the
Constitution, at Oporto.—The base is composed of 7
circular steps ; the lower is 25 feet in diameter. On
this is to be erected a pillar, surmounted by a globe
and crown ; the whole to be 191 yards in height. Oa
the top of the steps, and leaning on the base of the
pedestal, is to be placed a figure representing Lusi-
tania, bearing a scroll, on whic's is to be inscribed
the words, Constitution—Religion—Law—Natios--.

scription is to appear in large letters.—" PORTO, Aso-

suitable inscriptions.
The Cortes is proceeding deliberately but firmly
in the work of reforming the abuses of the late
Government and consolidating the new institutions.

CURIOUS CALCULATION.—By a Parliamentary St-
turn, it appears, that the annual. consumption of
British spirits by each person, in most of the northern
counties of Scotland, stands at from one-tooth to two-
tenths of a gallon, while, in the county of Edinburgh,
it is within &trifle of four gallons.

TBB RIGHT HON. BBCRETARY GRANT.

(110 K THE IRISHMAN, lELPAST man, SEPT. 28.)
In our Paper of the 31st ult. we said that we sus-
pected that " Party arts scotched, not killed." We
added, that an inspeclon of Yeomanry took place in
Lisburn, on the 25th of last August, and that the
Ballioderry corps marched into town, with a Lieute-
nant at their head, playing party tames. A complaint
was sent to the Chief Secretary, to ascertain whether
Government would countenance such a proceeding.—
This communication was made by an inhabitant of
Lisburn, to whom the people of that town, and we will
say more, the people of the North, are most deeply in-
debted. Mr. Wm. John Hancock wrote to the Chief
Secretary of Ireland, stating the above circumstance,
and that very distinguished and highly esteemed in-
dividual sent the following reply:—
" Dublin Castle, 26th Sept. 1921.
" Sts-1 have the honour to acknowledge the receipt
of your Letter of the 25th ultimo, and to thank you for
the trouble you have taken in conveying the information
it contained, which 1 lost no time iu submitting to the
Lord Lieutenant. His Excellency having accordingly
directed an immediate communication to be held with
the Brigade Major of Yeomanry, in the view to the
special investigation of the matter, his Excellency has
the satisfaction to find from his reply, that the tunes in
question were inadvertently played, without any inten-
non of giving offence, but such instructions have been
Issued as will, it is expected, fully guard against.* law
occurrence in future.—l have the honour to be, Sir,
your most obedient humble servant, C. GRANT.
" W. J. Hancock, Esq. Lisburn."
This is acting. Here there is no profession. It is
acting. It is not like the time-serving venal place-
nta% going about and about and never coming at the
thing to be obtained. It is acting. It is keeping the
premise to the heart which was made to the ear. It
is worthy of Mr. Grant, and admirably illustrative
of his Royal master's letter, signed by Lord Sidmouth.
It is the bringing the principle of that admirable letter
into full operation. We have beard of a person called
Col. Blacker, being lately made a Grand Master of an
illegal association. Can this be the fact, in the face
of the government, as well as the laws of his country,
—aye, and in the face of the King himself, who order-
ed the hydra of sedition to his den ? Let Lord Talbot
and Mr. Grant go on thus, and they will have six
millions and a half of Irishmen to protect and defend
their government. and not the miserable monopolist
fair, who created rebels at the moment they were
hallooing and proclaiming their own loyalty. We
congratulate Ireland on this document, and now call
upon the proprietors of the Neva-Letter and Belfast
ChroHicle to circulate it as far as lies in their power.
Sure we are that every honest paper in the British Em-
pire will be glad to copy it. THE IRISHMAN.

Your letters, my dear Consist, were regularly answered
by the newspapers. 1 was aware that would Nave fa
the exposes of postag*, which would have been shies
TwaLve Hoes ; that would frank you at the rate of
three tumblers &night for a whole fortnight. Yon know.
Cousin. there is nothing like a close fist in bad times.
But I could not get over answering your last, in propris
persona, as we say in Greek. Talking of the Greeks.
by the steeple of Saint Paul, they'll give the Turks as
much trouble as the King's letter has done the old
Delzos, and I'll reiterate your old prayer fervently.
" Oh! bad luck to the Crawleys."
You desire me to tell you all about the King since he
left you. Troth, my dear Cousin, we saw no more of
kin than we did of the Grand Turk. The humbugs
keep him shut up, as if he was afraid to mix with the
people here. What a difference he makes with his Irish
;Mende. There he was always in the thick of you. Oh!
Marthough, you remember when I came first to this
country, the word was Irish Rebel, Irish sedition and
treat" &c. &c. &c.; and the very same vagabones say
now. the Irish are the most loyal people in the world.
What do you think of that ? But, I would no more be-
lieve their words than you would the Major's oath. To
make the story short, so little did our newspapers know
of his Majesty's movements, that they sent him to
Hanover three days before he l•ft London. When he
did go, they bad soldiers planted at every town on the
road as he proceeded, as if they dreaded the people
would eat him. At Canterbury there were some geese
(Tear.' a grand salote ; but at Ramsgate he became
the guest of Alderman Grogblossom, whom you have
seen at the last shew in Dublin. He was Commodore
of the Fleet, and accompanie.l his Majesty to Calais.
where be landed and gave the French soldiers 600 bot-
tles of claret, and all sort of good living, beside 4.. 64,
a-piece in bard cash, and they called out, " Long live
the King of England," in Irish ; but the women could
not get a peep at him ; he was housed up as usual;
yet you'll allow my dear Murtough that was charitable
in his Majesty, as it would have been a pretty peep if
they had all fallen in love with him. Then what could
he do for the German ladies among whom he is going
to pick out a loving mate, to make him happy for life?
I must leave his Majesty on his journey and take a
touch at the times which are here bad enough. As
bad as they are, I would not have you think that the
Ramsgate Commodore was Sir Roger of that name, nor
like him, for he is dead long ago. Arndt, ;far-
tough, honey, I forgot to tell you there were a few
English people at Calais who wanted to sing God
save the Kiog' before his hotel, though some say
the English who made themselves fools there,
wpm all Irish.; but the noise was soon hushed by the
soldiers-who drank the 600 bottles of wine, and all
was peace from the teeth out. But between you and
I, cousin, they don't like a bone in his Majesty's skin;
however, you 'do, and that's all the same: and another
thiag ie. yea have a right ao de ow. ISP pee down
with you, the basest and the most profligate scoundrels
on the face of the earth, except the SLOP GANG.—
Oh. bad luck to the Crawley's. Amen a hierugh,
so I filed some of the papers in this country have been
faulting the extreme of Irish Loyalty. I will tell
them as I have done, that if the Irish were treated in
97 as they have been this year, they would have bees
equally loyal, and there would have been no rebellion
in 98. But we are told here that loyalty will not last
long, that old divisions will be re-kindled, and my
countrymen as disturbed as ever; that I do notbelieves
at least, I hope never to bear of the ultra faction
rising their heads here or there. Should the Clovers-
meat use the Irish well they will be grateful. The
word is, " Gentle when strok'd, but fierce when pre-
coked;" but should it be otherwise, " tread on a worm
and it will bite." Your own blackguard news-
papers are often the conveyancers of palpable false-
hoods to this Country, for if two boys berm
to boa in Ireland, they would make it a big
row; and if a few met, a little over charged with the
ereature, sad should scratch one another with a bit of
shillelagh, it would be converted into a rising of the
country and a threat of martial law. Believe me my
dear Cousin, the hackney scribes here, would omelet
it lose by the carriage, so that your venial errors we
here converted into modal sins; and I dread it will
take half a century to come, before the old prejsdiees
against Ireland will be obliterated. That old bessef
paper The &ening Post with you, is hard at wirsig hr
reply to the Scotch and English press which is Idle
angry with the Irish people ; bat you have 1111111.111111
that in good stile. In your letter to me, you said, if**
King had the rogues march beat at the tail of the
M----r yeomanry, the Slop-gang branded is the
forehead—the villainous papers published here, burnt
at Temple-bar by the common hangman. then would
his Majesty be as popular here as he was in Ireland. Oh,
rtbe devil a word of lie is in it Murthough. That is
as true as that he deals with humbugs, but you Pot
Wage say for Whigs or Tories, it bodthers'as all, it
shaves them without soap, and they dos% Ilk. it. Ni

KinginLoodon at Drury-lane has been very Frawley,*
the treasury; these are ticklish occurrences. I =ppm die
next piece will be the King at Hanover. There ill levy
him and turn back to The Dublin Evening Pest, which
has inserted a paragraph from a shabby Evening
Paper here, now upon its last legs. When thaterawl-
' ing thing headed an article with POPISH INFLU-
ENCE, the source of such filthy farrago could be
soon traced to the columns of a nasty vehicle of
slander, set up hereby an Orange Lord, who lives upon
the country as one of those worthy props of the
state, called Sinecure Placemen, who, like the Irish
augers, dole out their loyalty by the number of dis-
tillers that keep them in pay. But mind that, my
cousin, the people are every day growing wiser, and
acknowledge that if we have wings we fly to their
Insistence when they are in trouble. Yon give the.

ADILTIII THarraz.—This popular place of amuse
meat opened for the onion last night. The entrance
has been enlarged and the interior has been adorned
with fresh embellishments. The following is a de-
scription of them :...The putsch; of the boxes ar,t
formed of rose-coloured velvet within a gold belding.,
in the centre of which appears the bead of Pbcebus sur-
rounded with a glory. From this ornament, on either
side, issue rich scrolls of intertwined Grecian honey
suckles. The stiles are white, the plat-band, or space
below the panne's, of fawn colour with rosettes. The
whole of the ornaments ate of highly burnished gold ;
as are the fluted columns against which terminate the
partitions of the private boxes. These columns rest on
pedestals formed of looking glass imbedded in fratne,
of rich matted gold. The pedestals reflecting and
multiplying the light from the central lustre, produce
a very Fleming and lively effect. The general style bot li
of oolonr and 0111114.00 in the upper, resembles that of

J UST/CIARY SM. 2U.

The Justiciary Court was opened here this day by
lord Bermand. There were only two cases before the
Court, sad these of no great iteportaece, and we believe
a good many years have elapsed since the calendar was
so light in this quarter.
William Johnston was first placed-at the bar, accused
of abstracting a silver watch from the person of Walter
Hole, shoemaker, arArcherbeek. parish of Gambit, on
the 28d of May last, and in the house of Peter Telford,
innkeeper, Laughols.
After hearing evideue, the Jury, without leaving the
box, returned a verdict of guilty.
_Robert Newshase was next placed at the bar, accused
of entering by a ladder aroma is the house of Rosehall,
and abstracting from a pocket-book belonging to Mr.
Gillespie, lit in notes, sad 10s. in silver.
The prisoner, who is $ man of small stature, and ra-
ther feeble looldeg.pleaded guilty to the charge; and
so far as his Juke amid hnistorpreted, be appeared very
penitent. The AIIIT teAllig again been sworn, returned
a verdict of guilty aghiust the panel, in terms of his
own confession.
The -.lodge sow proceeded to pronounce sentence
upon Johnston, whom he admonished to lead a new life,
sea atone by his futuretonduct for the base and coward-
ly manlier in which be bad robbed a poor man who was
feat eskep at the time. Sentence, twelve months im-
prisonment in the Jail of Dumfries.—On hearing this,
the panel impatiently exclaimed. " Thank God, my
Lord, it is so worm. Too and I will meet in heaven,
aod rhea we'll eas who's innocent. The watch might
Lai* been In fifty. hinds, and the man ought to be sworn,
—I say he ought to be sworn—that's what I say, gen-
tlemen." The prisolar was proceeding with a great
deal more nonsense, when he was interrupted, ankorder-
cd to sit down.
Lord Hennaed thew pronounced sentence on New-
sham, whose crime be said wan aggravated by the breach
of trust it implied. In these eircemstancei the mildest
sentence of the law which he uvula award was trans-
portation for seven years. This culprit hung his head
and said not a word ; but 'llkeston again started to his
feet, and exclaimed, " It's murdey,;:bighway robbery,
and murder. Is there no man of war's officer in the
company that will come forward and speak for a poor
fellow that's been shedding his blood for ibis King and
country. There's no justice—by U—d r not a bit of
justice here!" and suiting the action to the word, lie
struck the boards of the panel'. box with the greatest
fury. The Judge seemed much shocked at behaviour
of this man, whose ontragecui and hardened conduct ex-
ceeded that of any criminal we ever saw brought into
Court, and inquired if there was no Bridewell in which
he could be confined and kept at hard labour. Bailie
Kerr replied' in the negative; but promised to confine
bins in a dark cell and feed him on bread and water—so
that Johnston will gain nothing by. his ignorant and in-
, tolent bravadoing. On being carried back to jail, his
conduct we are informed was, if possible, still more vio-
lent and obstreperous.
This finished the business of the Court.

Mansiox-:loans.—A workman. in the employment
of Mrs. Innis, printer, No. 28, Bell-al/ey, COletUan-
street, was brought op by John Forrester, stpOti the
clarge of hiving feloniously disposed of a quantity of
bank note paper, which had been sent to her from a
country hanking-house to have executed fur the pur-
poses of circulation.
Mrs. Innis stated, that she bad been fur a consider-
able time employed by the banking house of Meows
Dansey and Bastard, at Illandford, or Poole, to strike
off notes for circulation. Upwards of a month ago she
had received a letter from the house, aecompanie.l by
a parcel containing a quantity of bank note paper,
with which she had direction, to use the plate. Upon
receiving it, she banded it to the prisoner, who was a
person in whose integrity she had much reliance, with- i
out reckoning the number of slipr. Her journeyman
went up stairs to execute her order, haring been in-
formed by her that there were two reams and some
odd quires in the bundle. He, however, soon return-
ed, and said there were 207 abort—a disclosure which
surprised Mrs. Innis much, as she was aware of the
great accuracy observed by the banking firm in thrir
dealing. Mrs. Innis supplied the deficiency, and
then told the prisoner to make all possible haste with
the work, in order that the paper might be brought
to the Stamp office to be stamped. At the Stamp-
office, which she reached at rather a late hour, she
was desired to leave the notes,. and they should he
stamped by nine o'clock next morning. She paid the
money for the stamps, and left the notes. Next mot
it the appointed time, she sent her daughter to

the Stump-office, but she received a message from the
fieutlentanin whose hands she bad placed the notes,
elook Oat tit . .tere four hundred and ninety short of the
n `the stamping of which she had paid. Mrs.
'isiMs cli the prisoner, who was at work, and tines-
. tioned hint upon the subject: but only received assur-
'loves from him that be had printed the number of
:' motes she had put into his hands, sod delivered them
' to her as soon as they were finished. She and the pri-
soner then went to the Stamp-office, where she saw
and counted the notes which she had given in the day
before. There were 1,242 notes of he banking-house
paper, but to her surprise there were 207 notes of c.on-
soon paper struck off from the plate which she had in
her p.ssesaion. Those 270 notes any body could haw
discovered to be without water-mark. and, indeed, to
be in every respect different from the paper which bank-
ing houses use. The deficiency altogether she found
to be nearly 1,000, and she could suspect nobody of
having tna4e away with them but the prisoner, who,
being questioned upon the subject of substituting the
common paper for the banking-house paper; said he
had received that paper mixed with the other from her,
sold thought that all was right.
The LORD 11/ATOR ordered Forrester to give all the
assistance in his power to Mrs. Innis, who appeared
greatly distressed, from the apprehension that the pri-
soner might have become the insttuusent of a gang of
villains who could easily turn the notes to their ad-
, vantage?
Forrester sail he had, since the .Iminnaation was
given to him, hems indefatigable in: his endeevoura to
Irate the mites. but the primmer had denied that be
Ind* stay Wier more tkaa he had
.already SAW. .

• Mrs. Innis said she bad written to the bankers, ex-
pressing her surprise at their having. sent her paper
not water-narked, supposing that the mistake ori-
ginated with the firm, and that it would be impossible
for any man in her employment tb commit a deliberate
act from which such misfortunes might arise ; but she
had, notwithstanding her credulity upon this point,
thought the conduct of the prisoner very remarkable
throughout, for lie had not only complained of a defi-
ciency and worked upon common• paper, hut he had
remained a nisch longer time than was necessary, or
than he was in the habit of 'devoting to jobs of the
same extent.

The bankers sent back to her an answer, stating

that they never had sent her such paper as she com-
plaint:dot' having received, and desiring her to send
them all the plain paper that had been worked upon,
in order that it might be destroyed.
It may be. necessary to observe, that the new stamps
with which the notes of this banking-house are now
stamped, and which almost cover the hacks of the
notes, cannot be placed upon the notes which are
missing.
The LORD MAYOR ordered that the prisoner should
be sent back to the Compter, and. kept apart from his
acquaintances.

ber of prisoners, amount* to no less than 37, who
were brought up yes/mita! before Mr. Alderman Cos,
for various offences, the following were the only eases
deserving notice :

HARDENED DEPRAVI rfi.•—A lad of the name of Wm.

ance bespoke him to be considerably younger. was
charged with picking a geutlettlan'tt pocket near
Temple-bar. The person robbed had passed* on, un-
knotving of hie loss, while the officer was in eursuit
the thief, and consequently no prosecutor appeared.
His mother, a very respectable !oohing woman, ay-

and with great feeling, narrated the history of her

The Altberman accordingly committed hint, as a
suspected common thief, to hard labour for one month.
The prisoner, who had witnessed unmoved the dis-
tress of his parent, on hearing his senteuce, unblush•
ingly asked if he might not have the handkerchiefs--
not to take it with him; but he wished it to be given
to his mother. The poor woman was quite overcome
by this impudent indifference ; she burst into a violent
flood of tears, and exclaimed, in au almost frantic
manner, " I take the handkerchief! I would not touch
it for the world," and sunk into strong hysteric fits,
and was carried in a state of insensibility out of the
office. This scene produced no effect upon the feelings
of the prisoner, who surlily muttered as be followed
the officer to the lock up room, that the handkerchief
was more his than any body's else, and he ought to
have it.

trate (Alderman J. J. Ssturti) perceiving that his
name was not upon the list of prisoners, inquired why
he was not brought up; to which it wax answered,
that Lambert having now been committed uisou the
Coroner's warrant to take his trial for manslneghter,
it was conceived not be necessary to bring him up fur
re-examination before the Magistrate. Ald. Smith
said he thought the duties of the Magistrate tould
not b thus superseded. lie should persist in having
the prisoner again brought befors. him. New evidence
might be brought forward before the Magistrate,
which might induce him to come to a different conclu-
sion to that of the Jury. In the present instance, had
the evidence produced against the prisoaer Lambert,

awl complete, he, as a blagistrate, should not have felt
it his duty to wait for the verdict of a Coroner's In-
quest, but have come to a decision at once. and cos..
milted the man to take his trial for that offence, which
in his judgment the evidence amounted to proof of.—
The worthy Alderman therefore directed that Lambert
should stand remanded until Wednesday next, to be
then brought up for further and final examination.

four years old in her arms, was brought up iu the cus-

gave to its mother. Shortly after Mr. Hodgson awoke,

gave Herself in custody. Edwards instantly repaired
to the Angel, where he learned the direction of Mr.
Umigson. Edwards proceeded to Camberwell, and on
teeing Mr. Hodgson be related the purport of his
journey, upon which Mr. Hodgson accompanied him
to town, and the prisoner was brought before the sit-
ting Magistrate, before whom the case was investi-
gated, and the money giien up. Toe prisoner, en
being desired to give an account of herself, said she
was a widow, and that her husband formerly carried
on the business of a sugar-refiner. He died about three
years ago and what little property was left was gone
through, and she was in the greatest distress. She
had a brother, a cashier in an eminent banking-house
in the city, and her fa.iter, who is still living, was a
respectable clergy:Han in Staffordshire. The Magis-
trates ordered the office to be cleared whilst they pies-
tioned her further ; the result was, that she was dis-
charged, awl appeared to leave the office in better
spirits than she entered, but fur what cause we are at
present ignorant.

DREADFUL EFFECTS or INconitvc•ve'r tv A Wicc.
—On Tuesday hist, un Isequeet was held ht Heading-
ton, Berke, on view of the body of James Harris, a
labourer. This war. a case which required contider.ilde
attention, and the examination of several witnesees.—
It appeared fr an the evidence of Mr. Wingfield, sur-
geon, and Mr. Itusiter, apothecary, of Oxford, that

From the evidence given by Jane Ilarris, the wile
of the deceased, and other witnesses, it appeared that
in May last, site left her Isitshsnd, and coltaLited fur '1
about three weeks with Henry Hyatt, a lahourer, of
Ileadinging), a tuarried Ivan. Hyatt is a young tuau ;
her husband was only thirty one years of age. She
did not leave her husband on account of any quarrel.'
She l•ft Ilyatt, and went to her sister's, from whose
house her husband fetched her. Ile nem afterwards
reproached her. On Saturday, the titl► ult. she was

came Up to her, and asked her bow she was, a► which
her lititband was much irritated, and challenged Hyatt
to fight, who declined it then, but said be w•unld fight
him at any other time. Harris and his wife then went
home. No cotversation passed between them going
home. He went up stairs, and said, " I will go away,"
and immediately ran down stairs. His wife overtook
bins, and lucked !situ in; lie then jumped out of the
window,aud went array, but returned in a quarter of
an hour, and went to lied. Did not speak all night,
lint appeared muck egituesl and distressed in mind.
About eight o'clock the next morning, she asked him'
to get up and ha►e his breakfast; be refused. She
then went down stairs and fetched sou►e milk, which
she took up stairs. Shortly afterwards he said to her
tt I have been and took some poison." Site looked at
him, and saw bins with a cup in his band, which she
took from him, but he had drunk the greater part of
the contents. Mr. Rusher was sent for, oho exam•
ined the remainder of the liquid in the cep, and found
it to be as before stated, eorrosive sublimate.

Elisabeth White. a dear neighbour of the deceased,
and one of the witnevests, stated, that in her opinion,
•' the deceased had nut been in his proper mind for
some tinw," which WUevidently occasioned by his
jealousy of Hyatt. It appeared also, by the evidence
of other witnesses, that the conduct of Harris had
lately been very different to what it bad been previ-
ously to his wife's elopement.
After the Corouer had summed up the evidence, the
Jury returned a verdict—" That the deceased died in
consequence of having drunk poison when in a state
of temporary insanity."
Tile Coroner then addressed Jane Harris in strrn►g
terms, pointing out to her the gross impropriety of het
conduct, which was clearly proved to have been the
cause of her husband's premature death ; anal that in
fact, she was morally, though not in point of law,
guilty of murder. In this address the Jury unani-
mously coincided.
