and IL ReSpIted.

We received intelligence on Saturday even.
ing, which is reliable, not only confrmatory
Of the charges made against Harden during
the progress of the trial, but revealing an
amount of guilt beyond these circumstances
almost incredible. Our informant states that
Harden is even now writing his confession, and
that he has communicated certain portions OF
it to the jailer and one or two others. The
administering of the poison to his wife com
menced on her return to Ramsey's, and was
given to her while sitting on his knee, even
during the endearments of an apparently low
ing wife. He kindly invited her to partake of
an apple, on which he had spread arsenic. She
~unsuspectingly eat it, remarking that it APP
peared to have something gritty on it He re-
piled hat it was nothing"
There are statements said to have been
made by the prisoner involving his criminality
with others who shared his affections, but we
do not think it proper to speak of them until
Harden chooses TO make them public himself
His purchase of the arsenic at Easton, his
using that which was about the house, are all
confirmed by Harden's own words. What is
most astonishing is the statement that, in the
preparation Of these enormities, Harden does
not seem to have had the slightest compunc-
ton. He did them without for Onee thinking
that he was doing any thing very dreadful
