WILFUL MURDER IN DORSETSEIRE.  LDORCHESTER, TUESDAY NIGHT.  At the Town Hall, this evening, an inquest was held before Mr. G'olesSymonds, the distr'st coroner, on the body of a newly-born male child which was found dead in bed with its mother, Anne Vincent, aged 18, on the morning of the 27th ult. The parents of the young woman are respectable, the father, James Vincent, being bailiff to Mr. Pope, of Sutton Poyntz.  Mr. W. Mansfield attended on behalf of .the young woman. The young woman, who was known to be in the family way, went to bed on the night of the 26th, apparently well, about nine o'clock, and no noise was heard during the night. At five in the morning the father got up, and while dressing fancied he heard a moan. Went to call his daughter, and said she had been sick. He called his wife to get the gill some tea, and went on to the farm (Herringetone, near here). The mother got her daughter some tea, and the girl reached it herself whilst the mother prepared breakfast. On again going to the girl, and e-,,saying to wrap the clothes more closely around her Mrs. Vincent found a newlyborn baby, dead in the bed. Messrs. H. Arden and E. Emson, the surgeons, sated their dec ded opinion, unanimous indeed as to the result of the post mortem examination Externally thcre were marks of finger nals on the baby's cheek and forehead, a scratch, two bruises, and a curious bruise, as from a cord, reaching round from the ear to the front of the throat. The tip of the tongue showed wounds, and the root of the tongue was torn from the bone of the tongue. The back of the throat was much injured ; the windpipe was stopped. Blood gushed from the child's mouth and nose on being moved. Both arms were broken. The lungs and heart floated, and the arm fractures were received during life. Death in their opinion ensued from the injuries on the tongue and consequent suffocation. The child had been born alive certainly, and when first seen by thei•urgeon, about 10 o'clock on the morning of t' e 27th, appea.ed to have been dead some hours. The foreign substance causing the throat wound might have been a hand.  The Coroner having summed up, The jury consulted for about three-quarters of an hnur when they unanimously arrived at the verdict of Wilful Murder against Anne Vincent, the mother of the deceased.  A w.irrant was issued fir the apprehension of the young woman.
