Wilful Murder near Wolverhampton.  Yesterday a coroner's jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against the young man John Jeavons, ho had been arrested on the charge of having caused the death of three colliers, by cutting the rope by which they were descending to work at the colliery, and of which he himself was the engineer. Jeavons had been previously committed for trial for wilful murder on the same charge by the magistrates at Bilston, in whose division the offence occurred. The evidence against the prisoner was conclusive that he had given expression to his determination to wreak vengeance upon the butt), or contractor of the pit, because he complained of him to his employer, Mr. Wright. Somewhat similar threats had been uttered respecting one of the deceased, who was a brother of the butty. Happily, however, for the butty, he did not descend into the pit with the first company, which was corn • posed of deceased. The prisoner was shown to have been on the colliery until a late hour on the night before the outrage was fatally revealed, and he brought no evidence to rebut the statements that had been made against him. On the contrary, he made a statement of the most improbable character to the effect that the engineer who succeeded him at the pit remarked to him " They can't do anything to you for the rope. It was I who cut it." The principal testimony given against him yesterday was to the effect that after Mr. Wright had complained to ..Lim of not having done his duty on au occasion some days before the murder, he further threatened the butty, and added "If I know when lam going to leave I will do the devil," On being asked whom he meant, he said " the butty," The Coroner called the attention of the jury to the strong circumstantial evidence that had been given against Jeavons, and to the fact of his not having tendered any evidence to rebut it. Afcer consulting about 40 minutes, the jury found that the rope had ben maliciously cut by Jeavens, and the coroner entered the verdict es one of " Wilful Murder" against the man named.  -- Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean will leave this country on the 15th of July, their destination being Melbourne.
