might by mistake take the poison instead Of
herowp medicine. That BY mistake thus

purpose, the prisoner, on the following day
mingled more poison with coffee, aud also
with EPSON salts, and in those mixturss ad-
ministered il 10 the said Adelia Cole, by
means Of all which her death was caused
To establish the body Of the oRense as
charged in each Of these counts II is neces-
sary for the State TO prove beyond all rea.
sonable doubt.
lst. That Adelia Cole, the late wife Of
the prisoner, is dead.
2l. That she died Of poison administered
with the intent TO cause death.
Then follows third proposition equally
important, but now coming within the fact
constituting the body of the offense.
Sd, Did the prisoner at the bar admins
ter or cause to be administered to her the
poison.
That Adelia Cole is dead is conceded
and that she died of poison.
1t is therefore to the other propositions
that your attention will be directed which
may be embraced in one--Dd the prisoner
at the bar administer or cause to be admin
istered TO her the poison with the intent
to cause her death
Here the Judge gave a short and com
prehensive review Of the principal facts as
claimed in the case by the Prosecution and
Defense.
In the investigation Of this question, these
important matters will require your consid-
GRAFTON. First; Had the prisoner at the
bar motive for the preparation of the
crime9 Second; Had he an opportunity
for its Preparation Third What did the
symptoms attending her disease and death
indicate as to the kind Of poison which
caused her deathQ Was there uumistakea-
BILE symptoms of strychnine and in view of
all the proof before you was her death caus-
ed by strychnine

ton you are not satisfied beyond reason

then Fourth; Were the laudanum and ar
senc of which (t is assumed for the pur-
pose of making this inquiry she died ad-

Gentlemen, the case is now submitted to
your determination. | cannot doubt you
will give to it the most careful thought and
most deliberate consideration, and that at
what ever conclusion you come, you will
have the firmness to declare it regardless of
all consequences, save to yourselves the aP-
proval of your own consciences

CLEVELAND. Noy. 80. 1858.

CLEVELAND, NOV. 81 1000.
FRIEND TELEGRAPH :---Summer has laid aside
her robe of green, and Winter has stolen a
march upon us aud thrown over the Forest City
its mantle of snow Our harbor is crowded
with shipping, the create. proportion of which
will probably go into winter quarters here. Lake
transportation this season has not been a pay
ing investment. The constantly increasing fa-
cilities Offering more rapid movement Of freight
by land is having a ruinous effect upon the COM
merce of the Lakes, and is diverting the passen-
ger business almost entirely, and freight to a
great extent, from this long established path
way TO the great west. The shipping business
upon our inland waters, has seen its pamest
days, and the Iron Horse is destined soon TO
supercede the steamer aud sail vessel. Those
splendid floating palaces which have hereto
fore formed the connecting links between the
terminus of different roads upon the Lakes now
swing idly at their moorings, mouruful EN-.
bems of departed usefulness.
The ship yards of Cleveland no longer dis
play the hustle aud activity that has formerly
characterized them. The sum total of this
years Efforts have given birth to but one pro
peler, the Northern Light built for HANNA
'GARETsoN & Co., and one sail vessel the, L. d.
Pierce, built for the Live rpoo trade. Thisyear
shipments have been made from this port direct
to England. The experiment has resulted sue
cessiully and a proportion of our Lake feet
may yet be made available in this trade.
The present winter has been looked forward
to with many forebodings. The great manu-
facturing interests of the country, have been in
a measure paralyzed for the past two years and
the minority of operatives who have found en-
ployment, have been working upon reduced
wages. Many have mortgaged what little prop
erty they may have accumulated by years ol
toll, 10 order to procure means of subsistence
for the past winter hoping that the present sea
son would prove more favorable, but the con-
tinued inactivity in commercial circles has de-
stroyed these expectations, much destitution
aud suffering is anticipated especially in large
manufacturing towns.
The Lecture season has commenced and pro.
misses unusual attractions. Two courses will be
delivered, one nnder the auspices OF the Cleve-
land Mercantile Library, and the other before
the Young Mems Christian Association, of the
most distinguished talent that has been engag-
ed. We may Hention f. II, CnAPIN, of New

ut great length, but his testimony was not
of character to interest the general read
er, and is mainly found in the previous wit
nesses Of the defense.

instance Of Mr.. Thrasher.
Mr.. Thrasher here stated that il the State
did MT object three letters written by Mrs.
Adelia Cole to her husband Hiram Cole

to show the then existing state of mutual
trust, confidence and esteem that existed be-
tween them. As the prosecution made no
objection they were read list dated Ly-
ons, N. Y, Aug 9TH, 1855: 2d, Lyons,
Aug. 26th, 1856: Sd, Lyons, Nov. 10th,

charact sr, aud contained nothing of particu
lar interest.
Mrs. Lovina Beers recalled. l said l

our house every day: we bought milk of
her: she was peddling it in the street.
Here defence stated that there might be
few questions to ask in the morning, and
then they would be prepared for arguing the
case. Prosecution agreed to the same.
Court adjourned to 81 o'clock to morrow
morning.

Saturday Morning, Dec. A, 1858.

THE RETURN OF SENATOR DoUGLAs, to his seat
10 the Senate, should that be the result of the
recent election in Illinois, has some gratifying
aspects, notwithstanding the common preference
of the Republican party for Mr. LINCOLN, his
opponent The triumph Cf a man of DOUGLAS
character, will have no tendencies to add his
graces of meekncss and pacability, towards TIE
President, such as were foreshadowed soon after
the adjournment of Congress. Success has
added to his pride and haughtiness towards the
man whose ire he has provoked aud dcfed, and
defiance only serves to widen the breach, de-
| sroyiGg the unity of the democratic party by
destroying the invincibiiy and prestige of its
head. Never before has this occurred in its
history. Rebellion has always been crushed
out "Fhe King could do no harm" was the
principle upon which the party has existed and
been governed. The Van Buren rebellion was
"crushed out" and there are no more subser-
Went slaves in the party now than its subdued
leaders SO of the anti-Nebraska emeute.-
The party walked over its dead bodies to new
lease OF power. But now rebellion has con-
quered; the party itself has sustained treason,
aud the traitor walks forth to day greater man
in the party tEan the president himself OF him
the latter must ask terms, or be thwarted and
powerless at every point in conducting his ad-
ministration. Independence in politics has been
encouraged. sustained, rewarded. We thank
Mr.. Douglas-we thank the democrats of Hi
nois at least for this; they have stripped boiling
from the behests Of party and presidents of half
its horrors, by making it successful"

THANKSGIVING, and it festivities were OBJ bserv-
cd by us, and ours at Cleveland. The weather
contributed but little TO the pleasures of the
day, and perhaps such outside, extrinsic con-
comitants were unnecessary, when the genial
warmth of friendship and social happiness
heightened in their effect, by the delicious and
ample offerings to the physical taste, so com
pletely took possession of the occasion. Thanks
giving is meaningless and tame, If in the midst
of creature comforts kindred hearts are not
present, flowing and minging in the purity aud
sweetness Of harmonious and homogeneous feel
ing, and the whole seasoned by a devout recog-
milton of the hand that aispenses our good, and
lightens up the pathway of life. This is the
pecularity of this festival of New England in
siituiion and national adoption. 1t inspires
purity friendship and devotion, increases the
sum of human happiness, and strengthens our
hold upon eternity.
The day was well regarded by the denizens Of
Cleveland. Though many of the places of busi.
ness were open in the morning, the afternoon
was given up entirely to the Legitimate objects
of the day and scarcely door could be found
open from one end Of Superior street 10 the
other. The stone church of Rev. DR., AKIN,
was the point for the assembling Of the several
Presbyterian congregations Of the city and a
very appropriate sermon was delivered by the
Rev. Mr.. GooDRIcH the associate pastor. The
Rev Mr. WHITE, Of the Plym luth Con
gregaiional Church, delivered to his people q
sermon especially adapted to the occasion.
As we were making our way from the Cleve-
land depot, a crowd at the q. @. & @. Engine

CALIFoRNIA.-The steamer Illinois arrived on
Sunday evening last, with 5 $l,sOO,OOO in treasure
and Intelligence ffom California to tho 5th inst.
We learn by this arrival that an injunction has
been issued restraining the New Almaden quick
silver Mining Company from working the mine
or selling the quicksilver taken from it until fur
'her orders. Ii is claimed that the title to this
mine' which is perhaps the richest in the world
was obtained by fraud, aud that the mine be-
longs to the United States. 1t is estimated to
be worth fifty millions,
Mining operations had been suspended in
consequence Of the swollen condition Of the

to pledge the State of Sonora as security or

The ATLANTIC CABLE-The London Times
has an article Oh this subject brought by the
North Britain, which goes far to explain the
fact, OF Prof HUGHEs not having had as, was
expected, an opportunity to try his instrument
upon the cable. The readiness of the Aneri-
can Prof, has been well enough understood, and
so announced, and YET be has never made the
trial. Now, after the Whitehouse machine and
operators have been discharged, aud the Offices
closed for months, the Telegraph Company are
constrained to admit their willingness to submit
to a trial of the Hughes instrument, but not
withstanding, the way is not prepared to bring
that trial about Is there any doubt about the
animns of the policy pursued by the company.
"Should any Improvement take place
when the shore end is added, there are ma
ny who profess themselves confident of
working through the whole wire, for some
lime to come at least. Foremost among
those who express this opinion is Professor
Hughes, whose printing telegraph is now
extensively used in the United States, and
which will also, in the course of few
weeks more, he introduced iuto Australia.
TO work the first submarine telegraph in
that colony between tasmania and Mel
bourne.
prof Hughes states that he is confident
of being able even now to signal through
the Atlantic Gable, and is anxious to con-
duet all experiments upon the wire at his
own expense. The Atlantic Telegraph
Company, on the other hand, say they have
no Discrimination to permit Prof Hughes to
try his skill, yet strange to say, though
both parties are willing, nothing is done.
Nevertheless, how, however, that the mat
ter is made public, Prot. Hughes may feel
bound TO press his offer, aud The Atlantic
Company, in fairness and in duty To the
shareholders, will, perhaps, see the necess,.
" OF at once accepting liberal proposal.
Whichever way il results can do them or
their cable no manner of injury. but. o.
the other hand, may possibly eof immenis
benefit"
The Times then proceeds to explain tho
Hughes system and It's obvious advantages and
says his offer should be decided by actual tests,
and the sooner the better
The Australian cable il is said. has been work
ed through by Prof. Hughes's instruments at
the average rate Of 20 to 25 words per minute
while submerged in tanks prepared for its re :
ception. The cable between Malta and Corfu,
only 25 miles longer than the Australian cable.
is only worked by The Morse system at the rate
OF four words per minute.
