Since The trial commenced letter ha
been received from this very "Civis" by one
of my counsel. II this person has any spark

ward. A notice to ,his effect has been put
in papers. Prof. Webster having said this
Sal down.
A deep impression was made upon the
jury, court and spectators, by the solemn
earneslness exhibited.
Chief Justice Shaw then rose TO deliver
his charge 10 the jury, remarkng that he had
thought proper to continue The proceedings
as far as to deliver his charge in the case tc
them because the nature Of the principles de.

The hand Of the prisoner, which had hilh.
erlo been held erect fell to the bar in front
of him with a dead sound as If he had lost
all muscular action, and his head dropped
upon his breast. His limbs seeming to give
evidence of fail ng, he then closed his ey elids
and bowed bis head down.
Mr.. Byrnn, the Foreman Of the jury ut the
same time held his hand up before his eves
as il overcome by the painful duty he had
performed. An awful and unbroken silence
