The frial is expectd tovlast two6 days, 4as there areno, less than forty wvitnesses to be examiinedl for the defence At a few minutes after 8 o'clock, a flburish of trLvripum ushiered Mr. Justice PARKl into Court. The usual pioclamation was then made for all persons to attend who had an~y,buainess. to transact be.- fore the King's justices at the pre-sent sesion of Oyer and Tern.iner and special gaol delivery. MAr. K.AT'P, the clerk of the arrak-tns, then ordered the prisoners to be caled to the bar. On one of the gaoler's ittendants leaving. Court, in order tQ prodA~ce them, MIr. Justice PAun said, that before be entered upon 0the businets. of the day, he mnust enfreat that all the ?'y.:tanders, w11o fiaid.,eate, would sit dow-a, as their standinig up nmuch in&creased th'e heat.C;f the Aourt. liktewise requested_thatl al the veR~tilatozs should? be immediately opined. -A pause of dead and dlreary silence- now. ensued, in which every person anxiously expected the arrival of the priseneis. Same delay occurred in producin g them, owing, as we' were infoemied, to tbc taigoff' their irons. The quiiet was *t length broken, by the inef- fcutua a1 'ttempts of some persons to, force-the'nselves intO, Curit. Mr. Justice PAreK put an end to it, by declaring, that he could niot allow more persons to enter the Court thati were in iit at present, Agentleman here informed the learned Judge.ta 'Il.Fetn one of the attornies for the prisoner Thiurtell,? .had bcen prevent i by' the constables fdmmn entering into Court.

Thurtell followed him; be was dressed in a brown sortout, t-oloured wvaistcoat, and white trousers, ard look-ed particularly well and healthy. His personal appeararce appears to he mictch imnproved in the interval since the last assizes. He had a desk,-before- him, on whiceh was placed a voluime of the \'~ewgate Calend-ar, a small almna- nack, and plenty of piens, ink, and paper, of which he made free usie in-the course of the day. On their taking their .plaee at the bar, MLlr.

Indeed, the whole of this and thne subsequent -discussion were carried on in- nvery lowi tone of voic'e,, and were addresed entirely to the-Jutdge., wvho was seated just above the-learned counsel. 31r.

Noel; that Mlr. Noel in consequence went out to see hiunt, and that on hiis return, MVr. Noel said that Hunt was prepared to make a disclosure. The affidavit went on to state, that both the deponents dented having pyromised Hunt that he should not be prosecuted, in ease he made a disroverv of the place where the body was concealed, and asserted thiat all they promised bim was, that provided he mnade a full and fair dis- closure of all that he knew relative to this murder, application should be- made on the trial that he should be adimitted As evidence for the Crown. They lik-ewise Affirmed that they had never given him any assurance that suc-h applicationi would he successful. Tn conclusion, 'hey statod their belief, rounded upon circumstances whlich had come to their Imowledge. that the confession madle by Hunt was net a full and fair-ciinfession, but, on the contrary, deficient in many very mna- terial circumstances. I Alr. Gum,;Ey requxested tof have the deposition read, whicls Hunt had given first befo-re the Magistrates;, anct 'subsequent. ly before the Coroner. He wi,hed this to b~ dlone in order that he mnight hereafter sh'ow that there were seperl very imnportant facts known to Hunt wivbth he liad failed to disclose to the Alagistrates. Ho would show thlis upon certaitn affidavits, whiich would dischoss.. Mr. Justice PARtK (nerun the learned counseb)-I hope that these affidavits3wil ntdclsfacts which ate calculated to preju- dice the minds of the jury unfairly at thils stage of thie business. I ]Tt ifto the learned counsel whether it is Absolutely necessary to hs Case to.bave thzese affidavits now read. I thoughit on a former occasion ';fiat the reading of the affidavit then tendered was citlcu. lasted t%lirejudice the jury, agains,t the prisIoner. I therefore request.. ed that it should not be published. T'o my utter as'tonishment, I follnd that it was in print at the very moment I was mnaking that request,-mnd before the breath was out of the miouth of the learned counsel who called upon me to issuie aprohibition. I supposed then thatthataffi(Iavit was calculated to prejudice the-prisoners. Ithink so now; nad from what you have said of these aflidavits whielh yott afe now tendering, I think they are calcutlatert to produce an impression against the p*ioners in the minds of the jury, against wh:ch we au li'ogad before we eater upon the triaL I think it -would be better if y(sti could refd 'them, so as to bring the eff'ect of them before We without stating more particularly their contents. I am rure ypix will kinow, Mlr. Gurney, what I Mnean. Mlr. GSaRwEy observed,thiat it wou'ld distinctly' appear from these affidavisNs that facts had been stated biv Hunt to individluals, in pri. ytes-whieh h`adnever found their wa-yin any shape whatever into his ton fesaon. itlr. Jusatice PAnRK again Asked, whiethier it would not answer the .upose of the learnedi counsel to state the effect of the affidavit as ,well as to read them. Hle did niot wish to throw any burden on the shoulders of the leamned counsel, or' of the profe~ssional adviser of lHunt, whichi they conceived to be inconsistent with their profes- sional duties-God forbid that he shuld have any suchi wishli; hut -he poit it to them, whether it would staot be better for themi to inspect the affidavits which Mr. Guiriey was going to offer, and then handl themn up to him, than to have them ptihliclv readl to the whiole Court. MRb. TmssGEaig (we believe) consented that these affidavits shioild not he read to the Court, buit shouldhbe submitted u, hlis in- s5e'~tinn, and that of Mlr. Harmer-. A shiort affidavit was then read (tre did not catchi the nameof t the pargon who made it), stating tbat qt the Coroner's inqunest Mlrt chtitterbuick had statedl, that there shouldI be no breachl of'faith' to Hunt, provided hle made a full ard fair disclosure of thte whole proee6dings. Mhr. GuRNEF.Y then said, that as iIiis Lordshilp had readi the two depositions made by Hiunt, he wouild inot refer to them futriher titazn to say, that according to them, Hlisit had no previouis knowIlelge of -the murder which had been co~mutittedil but that circumstances had vsubse-quently occurred, whichi made himn an accessory atler the fact. But in the other affidavits which he hiad tendered,hLs Lordship would see that circumstances were known to Runt, which proved against bins a crim4 of a very dlifferent comiplexion. If either of the atlitla.. vits which he had put in were to hbe dependedi upon, Hunt had not made any thing like afair and full disclosure. AIMr. &STsscsGER hOPed, that if there were any iloubit as to the success Of his motion, on account of a plea being on the record,- the consideration of' the eircumstances under which it hadl been placed the, wouldi press upon his Lordship's recollection, and oh. viate every%dffictilt. On the last occasionthat they werermet toe ther in that place hebhad notbeen. prepared to bring forward%Isis- peet motion upon affidavit. It was only ashorlttime before,that hreehad been retainied for the prisoner, and he had therefore hadl no time to give any directions for the drawing up of the requisite sfida. vits. In deed, if the trial hail then taken place, lie should have been compelled to make this application upon very imaperfect grounids. As he was on that occasion partly taktn by s,urprise, be trusted that the delay which had since taken place, owing to his Lordship's decision, postponing the trial, wouldI not he considered any obJection to hi's Jiesent application. bsh?&ed, the ipresent wvas the only wayt F- h e could, bring. t'he circumstances detailed in his affidavit before the- Court. Hle felt that he was authorizedI by thc case which he had already gtted, to move for a further delay of- this trial. Now- the questfon of' delay weuld depend in this case upon tle_igbigh of_thpeniagistratto admit a -prisoner wha wsas -an, accml ce, -ind was willing to miake a disclosure, as evidence for the Crw.. - uIleid not pretend to question the law, whbich had been laid down n tHe case of thle King v. Rudd, and very lately in a case which had comai betisre his Lordship.tbat a magistrate lhad no direct iiower, t6i sy that aparty shouldlhepardoned on giving evidenca against risociates; but he apprehended that indirectly they had suchi power, -snd that the ordinary practice was to sanctiorn any promise of pardon hield out under suchecircumstances by the magistrate.Thatfpriictice = chad uceec4the application of torture, and hadrisbw prevailed for snoe tan 5tyears; and in all that timie there had been only one case in which a% magistrate's prormise to a prisoner hnad eithier beeni questioned or viol,ated, and that case -was at'tended by such special cir- cumtiitnces as clearly took it out or the general rule. The affida-.' vitsa which hadl just be~en read to his Lordship would inform him, that at the outst of this exaTnination every thing was in darkneass. %hat it was absolutely necessary, 'to the commrincemnent of thfis inves- tigation, that a certain fuet shiould he disclosed, and thatt every sub- seretponhieduo t Te issagistrates, naturally and laud, ab y enougb; were anxtious to arrive artlthat Poin On ___- ,caomplice tnewit was bwit usual to receive the evidence of an ac- omlc, unless be snaile a fhul and fair disclosure Of - all the cir- cumstances of guilt in whi6h he had bean imhPlicated ; hut he appre- hen.ded that ina. tsse of particular ritaportance and atrocity, the ma- gisteatehbaLd-indirectly, though xoatdirectly, a right ofigiving to'thie prisoner a promniLe of eventual safety on the disclosure of that patii- culat/ ac on which all the subsequent proceedings muEt naturally deprend. There was, no person in that Court who would question this potnt_-.that the facttwhich Hunt disclosed had borne very inn- texially upon this case. Every person must see how imhportant it was. -: Mr. justice PARK remarked, that there was one person at least in Court who wits not-even acquainted with the nature of the fact to which the learned ktrttlemin alluded.

Had his Lordship been acquainted with that fact, be would have demandedl first, some reason - why 'flnt had been dism-issed as an evidence. His learnecl frienil said, that they had dismissed hiim, because they hatl'found his confession fiul of material- contradictions-.-that there were geuatt omnissions, and little fidelity in it. Re, would admit that Huanthd not upon his furst' confession detail6d 'all the tfiaets with which he was acquainted but that was not surprising, considering the tiukried, and agitated state of mind in which he naturally must have been. He supplied those facts, however, at subsequent communications, which he had had by his own request with Air. Noel and the magistrates.

It was of great imlrohtance to society th at a criminal shiould he punished, in order tfiat crimne should be re- pressed;. but there was one thing o~more.importance, and tbat'was, the protection of innocence.

Win. NVare.-a man;, a w'as said, addieted to pay, and, as bad been suggested connected w-itb gami;g-houses. WIhe-. ther he was- the best, or: t ie least- estimhble individual in society, was no part of their present consideration. The prisoner at the bar, John Thuxtell, had been his acquaintance, and in soine-practices of playhad; it was said, been wronged by him, auddepsived of alarge sum of money. The other prisoner Hunt, was dacriUbed as being a public singer, and also kiown to lIlr. Weare, but not,- as he be.- -lieved, in abits of friendsbio. Probert, who was admitted as an accomplice, had been in trade a spirit-dealer, and rented a cottage in Gill's.ill-lane, near Elstrec, It was situate in a by-lane going out of the- rondon-road to St. Alban's, and two or three mdis -be- yond tilstree. This cottage of Probert's was, it would appear, se- lected, from- its seclusion, as thte fit spot for the perpettation of the murder. Probert was himenelf much engaged in London, and his wife generally reside'd at the-cottage, which waas a small one, arid pretty filly occupicti in the- accomnmodation of Mlrs. Probert, her her sistcr, (Mliss Noyes), some childien of Thomas Thurtell's (the prisoner's brother), and a maid and boy servant. It shouldc seem, from what hzad taken place, -thatthe deceased had been invited by John Thurtell, to this place to enjoy a day or-two's shooting. It ould'be provedl that t&e prisoner Thurtell met the deceased at a bi'ard-,droom, kept by one Rexworthy, on the ,Thursday night (thst. previous tothe murder). They werejoined there by Hunt. On the orenoon of the Fday, he -(deceased) was with Rexworthy at the same places and said he WaS going for a day's shooting into the coun. try. lfeare went fiam- the billiard-rooma between B and 4 o'clock to his chambers in Lyon's.ian, where he partook of a chop dinner, and afterwards packed up, in a green carpet Bag, soine clothes, and a mere change of liec, .such as ajourney for the time he had speci- fied rnight tequire. He also took with hiim when lie left his chain- bers in a liacney-coach, which-the laundrcsa had caUled, a double, barrelled gun,- and a backgammnon box, dice, &c. le left his chambers in -this mnanner. before foiur o'elogk, and drove first to Charing-cross, -and afterwardEs to ltaddox-street, Itano- ver-squarp; ftron- thence he proceeded to the New-road, where he went oue of the 'coach, adn returned after some time, accompanied by- aiotherperson, and took his things away. Un- doubtedly tlse deceasedl lefi town on that evening, with the cxne ec. tion of reaching Gill's.hill cottage, ut it had been previously de. fermined by his companions, that lie sbould never reach that spot alive. le would lhere beg to state a fewv oftbe circuinstences which had occurred anteceden 'to the commission of the crime. Thomas and John Thurtell vere desirous of some temporary concealmeent, owing to their inability to provide the bail -requisite to meet sorae chargeof tnisdemannour, and Probert had procured fot them a re. teat at Tetsalt's, the sign of tlie- Coach and Horses, in Conduit- street, where they remained for two or thriee weeks previous to the murder. On the morning of Friday, the 24th of Cctober, two men, answering in every respect to the description of John Thurtell and thint, went to. a pawnbroker!s in MIarylebone, and purchased a -pair of pocket-pistols. In the middle of the same day, Hunt hired a gig, and afterwards a horse,- under the pretence of goiqg to Dartford in Kent: he also inquired where he could pmsrchate X sack and a rope, and wvas directed to a place I over Vessmninster-bridge, whiich he was told was en his road into Eent. Somewhere, hovwever, it would be found that he did procure a sack end cord, and he met thesame aftemroon,at Tetsall's, Thomas Thurtell ahid Noyes. They were all assembled together at the Coach and Elorses in Conduit-street. Whei he made use of the names of the two last individhals, he begged distinctly to be under. stood as saying, that he had no reason to believe that either Thornas Thurtell or Noyes ;vere privy to the guilty purpose of the prisoners. Some conversation, took place at the time between the parties, and Hunt was heard to lch Probert if lie Wduld be in what they (Huint and John Thurtell) were abouit. Thurtell drove otF from Tetsall's between four and five o'clock to take up a friend, as he said to Probert, " to be killed as he travelled with himn," an expres- sion which Probert said at the time he believed to have been a piece of idle bravado. Ele requested Probert to bring down Hurt in his own gig. In the coarse of that evening the prisoner Thurtell is seen in that gig, with a horseofa very remarkable colour. Hle was a sort ot iron gray, with a-white faceand white legs-very particular marks foridentity. He was first seen by a patrol near Edgeware 'beyontI that part of the-road he wvas seen by the landlord; but from that tume of the e1emiing tntil his arrival at Probers's cottage on the same night, they had no d;recs evi(dente to trace him. Prolate, accortllngto Tburtell's request, drove Hnt down in his gig, and lhaving a better horse, on the road they overtook Thurtell and Weare in the gig, and passed thenm without notice. They stopped afterwards at some public-house on the road to. drink grog, where they believe Thurtein must have nassed thens unperceived. Probert drove Hunt until they reathed Phiillimore-lodge, where he (Hunt) got out, as be said by Thurtell's desire, to wrait for him. Probert from thence drove alone to Gill's-hill cottage, in the lane near viich he met Thurpll oon foot,alone. Thurtel inquired where- was imnt, had- he been leftbleinde?, heAthen added, that he had done the busi- ness -without higassistance, and had killed his man. At his desire, Probest retutneTtohiring HMnt to the spot, when he (Probert) went to Hlunt for thateiurpose. IVhien they met, he told Hunt wbathad happened. '-lbyit was to be done here," said Hunt (pointing to nearer Phillirore.lodge), admitting his urivity, and that he had got out to essistin the commissisn of tbe deed. When Thurtel re- buked Hunt for his absence, i' Why, .(said the latter,) you had the tools;" They *ere ho good, replied Thurtell; the pistols were no better than pop-guns. I fired at his theek, And it glanced oft-. that WVeare ran out of the gig, cried for mercy, amid offered to return the moneY lie had robbed bim of-tbat he (Thurtell) pur- sued him up the lane when he jumped out of the gig. Finding the pistol unavailing, he attempted to reach him by cutting the penknife across his throat, and ultimately finished him by driv- ing the barrel of the pistol into his head, and turning it in his brains, after hIe had penetrated the forehead. Such was the manner im which Thurtell described he had disposed of the deceased, and they would hear from Probert what le said on the occasion. A gig was, about that time, heard to drive very quickly past Pro- bert's cottage. The servants expecteti tbeir master, and thought he had arrived but he did hot make his appearance. - Five minutes after that period, certain persons, who would be called in evidence, and who happened to be in the roadl, distinctly heard the report of a a gun or pistol, which was followed by voices, as if in contention. Violent groans were next heard, which, however, became fainter and thinter, and then died awav altogether. The spot where the report of the pistol and the soundof groans were heard. was Gill's-hiill-lane, and near it was situiated the cottage of Prolert. They had now, tlerefore, to keep in mind, that Thurtell arrived at about nine o'clock in the evening at Probert's cottage, having set offfrom Con- duit-street at five o'clock; antI though lie had been seen on the road in cc-mpany with anotherperson In the gig,yet it appeared thathear- rived at the cottage alohe,havingip his possession the double-barrelled gUl, the green carpet-bag and the baclr-gammon-boarft, which Mir. vW'earp tool: any with him. He gave his horse to the boy, and the horse appeared to be in a cool state, which corroborated the fact that he had stopped a good while on his way. He left Conduit- street, it should be obserred, at fmve, and arrived at the cottage at nine-a distanre whichi, utter erdinary circuinstance s, would not have occupied much more than an hour. ihe boy inquired after Prohert and lHunt, and was toldt th they-,ould soonbe atthe cottage. At lerngth, a second gig arrived, andthose twopersons were in it. They rode, while Thmirtelh, who went to meet them, walked with theui. 'f.h boy hpbvink ceaned his master's horse, then perfornedthe saine office for the borse of Thumrtell, which occupied a good deal of tinie. Probert Went into the house. Nqeither Thur. tell nor tlunt was expected by blrs. Probert. With Thurfell she wasl--inepAl-,,,m- t- nt- ,p,s ,nePr an- ,enefnrrn-,l,, in trotluced to her. They then supped on isome pork-chops, which Hunt had brotight down with 1im from London. Theythen went out, as Probert said, to visit Mlr. Nicholls, a neighbour of his; but their real object was to go do*n to tfie place where the body of *\'eare was deposited. TburteD took them to the spot down the lane, and the bo,ly was dragged thirough the hedgc into the adjoin- ing fielil. The body was, as he had previously described it to be, enclosel in a sack. They then effectually rifled the deceased man, ThuerteD haiAh infoitned his companions that he bad, in the first instance, taken tbe fourth part of his property. They then went back to the cottage. lt ought to be stated, thst Thurtdll, before he wetSt out."~aced glarge sponge in the gig; and wheit he returned fromthis~ expedition, he ent to the stable anid sponged himself with greatdE Ieenteavored t orettove thbesmotsof bood.manrVof *hich TThurtelltd funtlefr'Prbberts cottain'theg-g whifch 1uiui. :come downin, carrying.away with them the gun, the t,bqji and the baekgammon.rZoard, be]ingg to ih li.Wae. eri ' cles *ere'taken to liat's lodgings, where waere.sMiwaidgi found.

'The intelltence, however, unspiret them al vrith'a sirong desire to conceal the body eEeetuahly. Po bert wished it to be removed from his pond for, had .t been found there, he knew it would be important evidence agaibt himself. He declared that he would not.5ufrer it to remain ther; 'and Thur- tel and PHtnt promised to come down on the 5bnday5 and remove it. On Monday, Thurtell and Hunt went out in the gig, and in furiherance of tlat scene of vihlany 'whfeh theyn meditated, thley took witlh them Probert's boy. Th8* carred him to various places, and finally lodged the boy at Mlr. Tetsall's, in Conduit-strreet. On the eveumg of that same Alonday, liunt and Thurtell came 'dovin to the cottage. Hnht en' gaged Mrs. Probert in conversation while Thurtell and Probert tookI the body outt of the ppnd, put-.t into Thurdll's gig, and then gave notice to Hunt that the gig was ready. In this mianner they carried away the body that night; but where they to6k it- to, Probert did not kmow. It appeared, however, that -the body was carriedta a pond near Elstrek,, at a considerable'distranee from Proeert's cbt. tage, and there sunk, as it had before been in Probert's pond in a sack containing a considerable qbantity of stones. _IuntandTihur- tell then went to London* and thehappearance of the' gig the next murnina celarly. told the way in which it had been used oyer night; a quantity of blood and nmud being quite perceptible at the botfom. Thteparties heard that tlhe report of the pistol in the lane on the Friday evening, and the dtscqvecry of theblood in the field, nad led togsrcat alarm amontgst the Mgisy. - Inquiry w as set on foot, and 'Thurrelj -Bunt, anmdProbertr I at lengt apprehended. -It was found that Hfunt: had adopted a- rec;ilar mode for the purpose of concealing his identlty; fbr -vhgi he iihrrt' ,t mand\oing. various other acts connected with thins atrOCioUS promteeuln, he wore very long whiskers; but on-the Monday aftet te nurder; he had them taken offr; and they 2al knew that nothing could possibly elter the appearance oif a nlat more than the taking avtaY of large bushy whiskers. Strict inquiries were made by the Mstrates, but nothing was ascertained to prote to a certaity who was mur. dered. The bod, was. however, found on the Thursday, Hunt having given evidence as to the place where the body was deposited. The evdence which Hunt gave. ant which led to te finding of the body, he would nse:.buttnoothr factcorningoutofhis mouth, save that, would headvdrt to. eJ was ehtitled, in point of law, to make use of that. " Ifa person tells me,-underanypromrse of mercy, where stolen goods axe to be found, aid.on searching I find tder,i am ent. tledtoadduce the fact of findingagainst the eriminal party: and for thisreason-becausepersoris rnay,from hopeor fear,bemduceelto stare what is not true. But the finding proves the truth; 'and bn that point I have a right to proceeed." The fact only of the disclosure by Hunt, in consequence of which the body was discovered, was he permitted to make use of; and to that alone, so far as Hunt's con- fession went, he would confine himself. Brt by reference to his conversations with others, and to variouts cireumstances not ad- verted to by him, he was convinced that lie should be enabled to establish a perfect and complete chain of evidence. He had now stated the principal part of the facts which it wvuld be his duty to lav before the jury. Some of them, they must observe, would depend on the evidehee of an accomplice; for Probert, though not an accomplice before the murder, was confessedly privy to a certain part of the transaction-to tbe eoncealmient bf the body- to the concealment, consequently, of the murder. He tmist be look- ed upon as a bail, a very bad man. He was presented to tbe jury in that character. tWhlat good man could ever lend' himself, in the re- motest degree, t.. so revoltig a transaction? An accomplice must always he, in a greater or less extent, abase man. The jury would therefore ,receive the evidence of 'Probert with extreme cau- tiona; and they would mark, w ith peculiar attention, how 'far his evidence was conflraied by testimony that could not be impeached. Btit he would adduce such witnesses in confirmatiort of Paobert's statement-he wouid so confirm him in every point, ais to build up his testimony with a degreeof %trength and consistency which coild inmt be shaken, much less ovetturned. He would prove by other witnesses besides Probert, that Thurtell set out with a companion from li,ondon, who did not arrive at the' otensible end of his jour. ney; fie would prove that he had brought the property of that com-i panion to Probert's house, the double-barrelled nar, the backgam. mon board, and the gien carpet-hag, hewouldpro'e, that some time before he arrived at tbe cottage, the report of a gun of pistol was heard in Gill's-hill-lane, not far frbm the cottage; he would prove that his clothes were in a bloody state; and that, when he was apprebended, even on the Wednesday after the murder, he had nol been able to efface all'the marks from his apparel. Besides all this, they would find, that 'in his pocketj when apprehended,,there was a penknife which was positively. swora to as having belonged to Mr.. Weare, and also the f4llow-' pistol of, that wliicih was found adjoining thE placI' wh'er the murder was comntitted,-the paif havuig beenpnrnha'ed in-fl1iry' lebone-street by Hunt. These circumstances brought the-case cT&ir. Iy home to Thurtell. Next as tu Hunt.' He was charged as an'ac- complice before the fact. It was 'evident that he advised this pro- ceeding. For what purpose, but to advisej did he proceed to the ,cottage? He was a stranger to 'Mis. Probert and her family - he was not expected at the cottage. There was not for- him, aq tLere was for Thurtell, an apology for his visit. He hired a gig, and he procured a sack-the jury knew to what end and purpose. They would also bear in mnd, that the gun, travelling.bac, and back- gammon-board, were founc'in his lodging. These constituted a part of the plunder of Mr. Weare, -and could only be possessed by a person particating in this crime. Besides, there was placed about tle neck of Probert's wife, a chain, which had beronged to 'Mr. Weare, and rotend the neck of the murdered man there was found a shawl which belonged to Thuttell, but which had been seen in the lLands of lunt. In giving this summary of the case, he had not stated every circumstance connected with it. His great anxiety was, not to state that which he did not lirmly believe woeuld be borne out by evidlence. One circumstance lie had omitted, wch he feltit ne- cessary to lay before the jury. It was, that a watch was seen in 'the possession of Tlhurtell, whiich he would showr belonge to Mr. W\eare. After Thurrdll was apprehended, and Eunt had said somc- thing on the subject of this transactiOn, an offlcur asked Thur. tell what lie had done witht the watch ? HXe answered, that, "when he was taken into custody, le put his hand' bebind him, and chucked it away.' Thurtell also made an-' otler disciosure. Hemsaid, when questioned, "that otier persns, near the spot, were concerned in it, whom lie forebore to mention." As to Thurtell, the evidence would, he believed, celatrly prove him to have been the perpetrator of the murder; and with respect to Hunt, it Was equally clear thathe was an accessorv before the fact. If, hovever, the jury felt any conscientious doubt, the prisoner ought certainly to receive the benefit of It * but where a case was learly and satisfactorily made out, they would perform fearlessit that duty which they owed to heaven, and to the due administration of justice. TIlE EVIDENCE. John Beeson, examined by Mr. BOLLAND_I am constable of the parish of Alpingham, and on the 30th of Odtober went -with Upson and two oihers in seartc of the body; we went to varioua places,'and at lengh foundit in a pond near Elstree. Huntpoirited the place out to me. Tbe body sas contealed in a sack. The head was in a sack with the feet out: The sack covered the' body above the knees. ihe sack was fastened with a rope, which went round the body. The rope was two or three yards long. There was a stone tied to the end of the rope. 'We put m a ladder and got it out. I did notsee the sack opened. The 'body was carried to the Arti- choke public-house at Elstree.

Cross-exatnined by Mr. TnEsiroER.-I did not expec:t my liusband on that night. It was uncertain' what time he should irrive. My husbnd vwent fromn home on the AMonday before that. I had not seen lluntbefore that day. I was then intr'ducedto him Cor the first time. My husbartd did notsay he-i unt) was the gsod 3ing-erof whom I had often heard. There was singing on the Friday mght. hmnt sang twosonig: on thiatpight. It was not by my hus- band's desire that Hunt sung. - John Tihurtell asked him once, 'and r asked hinm the second time. I pressed him to sing the second time. There were no cards playing that night. It was after supper Thar- dell gave me the chair. It was before the singing. I did not attenipt to return the chain on the Sunday. There were cards played on he Sanday. I did not introduce them. The cards vere played in ny husband's absence. He did not caime back before the playing 6vas over. I did not play. 1 think miy 'husband was not present when the cards were played. I rather think not. It is possible he night hase come in before they were over. I am certain my iusband did not play. I cannit remember who played. I did ot hear Joln Thurtell remonstrate against the cards as a bad ex- smple to the children. Mr. Noyes came on Sunday. 'I did not tel tim about what I saw, or about the gold chain.

The witness at first seemed somewbat igitated, but after a few minutes he rined' his composure.1 Examined b'MF. GaUB*EY.-I was aiTetsall's on Friddiy the- 24tb of October. Iunt and my brother Jolhn dined there. T re. nember that some time after dinner Hunt was away for a time. I ather think he brought a saeck with him, and I think a gig to the leare. cid .oLnhag my Tm ws?nasa was desired to recollect hinmself, but' fe persisted in thd same an- ;wer. The horse in tbe gig. was a gray horse. My brother went wa in the _-g. E ere t'he witness begged the Court to think of the distressitig ituation in which he stood. MUr. Justice PAax said the Csurt 'felt every thing for the situa- ion of the witnessi but justice required that he should answer the iuestions put to him. No doubt they would be pit with every feela ing for his situation. The examination was'then continued. M1y brother went away in Prnobert's gig. By M1r. GUsNEY.-Upon your oath did you niot hear Hunt nake some observations to Probert before dinner? There wert- some made, biut I can't now recollect what thev were. [ saw some pistols, two largepistols, in the room. I think I heard iFlunt say to Probert " Bill, will von be in it ?". or something to that ifect. On the next day I -saw Hunt. Ile asked me if I vanted noney ? I tiink he nimedl 201. or sometHing thereabouts. He did not say how lie came by such money. I i;aw soind corisiderable nulin with him, and I was sutrprised to see it with him. He said theY had been dirawing game, or netting game. Did lie say wfhat he nmeant ?-Did he explain? The witness hesitated to answer. Mr. Stistice PARX (to the *itness)-I now feel it my duty, Sir, to cantion you as to your answers. I 'have before me the staterments youi mae in your examination before the mnigistrates, and [ caution you to answer strictly to the questions proposed. The Court con- siders your situation, but juistice muLst be done. After tbis, I trust I shall not have occasion to say more or to exercise the power with which I amn invested. The examination was then continued The uord " Turpin" was used by Hunt., I think he said " We 'rurpin lads, or boys, can do it." or something td that effect. Hunt afterwards said he hadbeen klhling,ame and Probert holding the baz. The vword "iAtirder" was used in joke. Hunt said he 'con- mittea thhlffder, -or something to that effect. The words were " r.e have been committing murder to be sure," but this was ini joke. This was in answer to a question from me, as to what they had been doing. I. went down to Probert's on Sunday. I walked as far as ilaida-hill. Hunt and my brother took me up there in a gig. There was a spade in the gig. It was a new spade. It was thrown over the gardenwall by Hunt. I said hehad better take it farther, and he said " No, I know what I am about." He said he did not wish Probert's wife to know it, or sometbing of that kind. Cross-examined. by lilr. THEESIGErt.-The conversation about Turpin, &c., was after dinner. We had not drank much. Hunt said that Probert said he did not wish his wife to know that he had been expensive,. I was at Probert's on the Sunday night. Cards were introduced. r can't be certain, but 1 think all the parties Were present when they-were introduced. At this time there was a great noise outside the Court; so much thaffor a time theanaswcrs of the witness under examination were noitaudible. Mit. JuSticePAIRK addresfing himself toa gentleimian who stood at the tab e' ini fwat of the dock (we believe the Under Sherift), complained of-this 'intexraujtion, and added-" Sir, if I were in your situation, if fcould'notge' tbo'se whom I employed-to keep orner,I woulit go orut,yself ar,d en.deavonr to preserve it."
