twice struck her when she was lying bleeding
on the floor. She also stated that her mother
had several times taken her-the iitlle girls
shoes and stockings off her feel, that she might
pawn them for gin; and that she and the other
children have been often obliged to lie in bed,
because their mother and grandmother had ta-
ken away their clothes for the vile purpose
above mentioned. Who could listen to all this
without feeling the deepest commisseration to-
wards the unhappy prisoner? Til he had been
hurried into this act with which he then stood
charged, he had always borne an unblemished
character as a quiet, respectable man, who labor
ed hard to support his family, and who could
have kept them in comfort but for his wife's
nous propensity to drink. His counsel address
ed the jury on his behalf with much earnestness
contending that on the whole Of the evidence
the prisoner was entitled to OH ocquit.al, or at
least, to verdict of mnnslaughter. The Judge,
however, directed the jury that there was no ev-
idence in support of the charge Of murder, but
that the prisoner had been clearly guilty ofman-
slaughter. He then recapituated the evidence;
and after quarter OF an hours consideration,
the jury pronounced n verdict Of 'manslaughter'
He was sentenced to lS months imprisonm
