to her pa. After this castigation Pinchbeck

The PRINCE OF WALES AND HIS "SCBJECrs."
There are beginning to leak out stories and
incidents connected with the Prince of
Walcs's illness which show that the CONNER
cial tendencies Of this loyal people were strong
in the shadow Of death. There is talk of
many having insured the Princes life in large
sums. who would have made Il handsome
thing out Of his demise. More authentic are
the reports Of certain dry goods establish
mcnts having issued large orders for Grape,
and jewellers for mourning icwclry: also OF
arstoclatic ladies having already prepared
mourning at heavy cost, so as to be
ready on an instant's notice. Meanwhile
there is an increase Of the signs to which
l have already referred that large number
of people regard the country as having been
humbugeed into grsh of loyalty by " false
news" as to the Princes danger. The allega-
tons that symptoms Of pcritOnitiS had ap-
peared (Which would have necessarily been
fatal is remembered, and strong murmuls
are heard. The Prince Of Wales's anthem,
which has been sung or performed nightly
for some weeks in the theatres. has been Kissed
in more than one instance, and several papers
are complaining that the Princes illness Is
being politically utilized beyond bounds. In
the Cambridge Town Council a member
Of that body was audaciolls enough to under
take il check to the deluge Of municipal
adulation which has been flooding the coun-
trv. On resolution Of sympathy with the
ROYAL family and thanks to Providence this
gentleman, II. Hall, Esq, said lie could not
pay bis alterations or agree that it was any
question of Divine Providence. "Thc
Prince had been i'll of a fever, which was an
ordinary complaint. 1t had proceeded i'll its
natural course, and lie OR. I!alD was glad to
find he was getting better, not for his coun-
try's but for lis own sake and that of his
widowed mother" a strong vote Of CEN
sure on Mr.. Hall for this remark WAS passed
by twenty-tour against the indignant protest
and vote of 1iye.-M Il. ConrGy.

Esryfcu Of the Wharton Case.

The trial of Mrs. Wharton for the murder
Of General ketchllm has been the most me-
morable event Of the kind in this State for
thirty or thirty-iire years. No trial has elicit
cd so much public interest since the blue
Ratchet case of Stewart, or the later and more
brutal tragedy for which Adam Horn was
hanged. 1t is now one month two weeks
and five days since Mrs. Wharton's trial be-
Gan in Annapolis. She was arragned in the
Circuit Court for Anne Arundel county De-
ccmbcr 18th, 1871, having been indicted in
Baltimore August 18th, 1871.
Mrs. Wharton was detained under arrest
in her own house on the 10th OF July last,
and six days afterwards, the grand jury hay
ing made formal prcScntmcnt, she was con-
vcycd to the Baltimore city Jail, where she re-
manned until the 1st Of December Lust, when
she WAS removed to the Annapolis Jail. She
has, therefore, been in duress over six
months, though her Imprisonment, owing to
the devotion Of her daughter and the cOnsid-
Grafton Of her custodians, has been deprived
of much of the dreary discomfort ordinarily
experienced by persons under similar cir
ctGnstances. Her trial has occupied forty-two
days actually, in which time the theories OF
chemistry and medicine have been exhausted,
rs well as the law and the practitioners CT all
three Of these learned professions.
Over one hundred witnesses have been eN-
amincd fo- and against the accused, many OF
them from remote sections Of the Union, i'll
Guiding some of the most prominent army
officers in the service Of the Government, la-
dies and others. Probably n more cN-
lr,llstivc trial, more tenacious defence or
vigorous prosecution, has never been wit
messed in Maryland, and it would be bad IN
deed if after all the trouble and expense Of
the case the jury should fail to agree one way
or another, and necessitate another:trial. 1t
is estimated that the case thus far will cost
the city Of Baltimore fully $4,000. 1t will:
it is understood, ruin the prisoner pecll-
narily, for the charges she is at must be very
treat. -.. ...
The allegations against Mrs. Wharton for
attempting TO murder Mr.. Eugene Van Ness
by poison being under another indictment,
are vet to be tried. Profound silence cnSucd
when Judge Miller instructed the jury that
their verdict must either he guilty of muir
der in the first degree" or "not guilty"
Bailin' Augustus S. Bryan was then sworn as
follows: 9 You shall well and truly keep this
Jury together, without meat or drink 4; you
shall suffer no person to speak to them, neither
shall YOU speak to them yourself, unless it be
to ask if they are agreed upon their verdict,
without the permission OF the court. So
help YOU God" Nevertheless, The court al
