The Northern Daily Times. — 1856-11-29 (Liverpool, Merseyside, England)

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1856  -..-.411..- THE DAY'S NEWS  We have again a variety of news from all quarters, —the police investigations of murders, railway frauds, and robberies, the un-Christian eowignment of the remains of the Erith murderer and suicide, the trial for the savage murder in Parlia meat 'street, London. These, with other topics of a miscellaneous character, form a go'd budget •of domestic intelligence. Further news Australia is to hand, and the advices from the Continent merit a passing glance.  As to the Great Northern Railway frauds, the accused, Redpath and Kent, were yesterday again brought up at the Clerkenwell Police Court, London ; but as the magistrate • before whom the case was previously investigated was unable to attend, a remand to Wednesday next was granted. Fresh charges are to be brought against the  prisoners on that day. Marley, alias Joseph Jenkins, was placed at the bar of the Old Bailey. yesterday morning, before Baron Alderson and Mr. Justice Coleridge, charged with the murder of Richard Cope, in Parliament; street. We have already frequently given the facts of this atrocious case. The prisoner, on his taking his position at the bar, east a hasty glance round the court, and nearly throughout the whole of the proceedings he maintained the greatest calmness. The witnesses who gave evidence against the prisoner at Bois-street were severally examined by Mr. Bodkin and cross-examined by Mr. Sleigh, that object of the learned gentleman engaged for Marley, for some time, evidently being to show that it was s ease of mistaken identity. -When the witness Croft was under examination, in the course of which he stated that he saw the prisoner striking at some. body in . the shop .of Mr. Berry, in Parliament. street, Marley fixed a steadfast gaze upon him, and it was sometime before he again resumed his apparent calmness. On Baron Alderson putting the question to Croft, whether he bad the slightest doubt in his mind as to the prisoner being the person he saw come out of Mr. Berry's shop on the evening of the shocking occurrence, and on his reply in the negative, the prisoner convulsively hit his lips, but shortly afterwards he regained his composure. The effect of the answer of Croft was completely to fix the prisoner's identity. Mr. Sleigh, the prisoner's counsel, did not attempt a cross-examination of this witness. The only otherpers-on whose evidence created the slightest sensation in court, was Allen, the hackney carriage attendant, the brother-in-law of the unfortunate man Cope, and when that witness left the witness-box, the prisoner evidently felt great relief, as the whole tenor of the evidence was greatly against him. Another exciting, but pain• ful incident occurred during the examina tion of Mr. Burnaby, the chief . clerk of the Bow-street Police court. This gentleman read the depositions taken before Mr. Jardine, the magistrate, at the Westminster Hospital. The witness having finished reading the document, Mr. Sleigh asked Mr. Burnaby whether the precise question. "Is that the man who struck you ?" was not put to Cope .in the presence of 'Marley. Mr Burnaby said it was not. The injured man was, of course, prepared for encountering the presence of the prisoner, immediately on seeing whom Cope gave a convulsive shudder, and, in answer to the question, whether be could identify any person present as the man who had injured him, lie pointed to the prisoner and said, " That's the man." At the relation of this incident in the dreadful tragedy, a thrill of horror ran through the court, but the prisoner, at this particular moment, was not in the slightest degree disturbed. 'The prisoner's counsel made a very able and ingenious defence, and attempted to persuade the jury that it was a case of mistaken identity. The jury, after twenty-five minutes eonsultation, found Marley guilty. On Thursday night the mortal remains of Worrell, the supposed murderer of George Carter, near Erith, was interred by torchlight at Shooter's hill Cemetery, in a portion of the ground not censewitted, in p*Ursuance of the Act of Parliament relating to self murderers, which dire—  s that they
