At half-past eight l►e arose quite refreshed by a good night's rest, and at ten minutes before nine started with great confidence.- At six o'clock at night he had completed 26 and it was calculated that he would fluid, about lialf-past two on Saturday morning. Many of the booths hate struck by order of the Magistrates, particularly those in which spirits were sold. It is probable that this circumstance will induce the Magistrates to per mit Mtn to confirm! his course. In the event, howeiThr. of their thin-compliance, Chislehurat is talked of as the spat selected for the completion of his .perfortnanne. • • TWELFTH DAV.

Elizabeth Ann,the *lciest (now dead); and Mary, the youngest, to tske a walk ; we returned home about hell-past seven o'clock ; took the youngest babe, Mary, and undressed her, and gave her to my mistress, who carried her into her bed-room in her arms, and a cup of gruel in her hand, that my fellow servant, Elizabeth Miller, made for the childrens' supper. My mistress ordered me to get some magnesia and rhubarb to give her. I accordingly went to the cupboard in the parlour, I took a tea spoonful! of the magnesia out of a blue paper, and put it in a wine glass, and then took a lump of rhubarb out of the same cupboard, and grated part -of it into the wine glass with the magnesia, and I then carried it into the bed-room to my mistress.

She answered " No ;" hut desired me to rock her in her chair : I took her in my lap, and I had not had her ten minutes, before she began vomiting most dreadfully : I said to my mistress., "Sure there can be nothing in the gruel." My •eistrees awes:crag I hope not, Mary." Roth the children kept vomiting constantly, and 1 celled my master in. When he came, he called my Jell's servant, Elizabeth; Miller up. When she came up, my master asked her what she had been doing with the gruel ? She said she had done nothing to it ; and then she began ci ying. My mistress then ordered her to bring up the bason with all the gruel in it. She went dowa stairs and brought up the bason with a little gruel in it, aid gave it to my mistress. This was about half-past Sor 8 o'clock ; I swallowed about two desert spoons full ; I did not feel any thing amiss in the taste, but after I swallowed it, I found a burning heat in my stomach and throat. My Master seeing that, said to her. "Elizabeth Miller, mow to spew you put nothing in the gruel , and to prove your innocence e take and eat it up yourself." She stood still and did not touch it, Mr. lames Cross, a neighbour then came into the room, and having seen the children, he tasted the gruel with the point of a knife, and be said it made his mouth very dry and hot. Mr. Wilkinson, another neighbour came in, and seeing the children ver, ill, he said to my Mistress that she should have some advice. y Master and Mistress sent Elizabeth Miller for Mr. Dixon the surgeoo, at Newington.

Mr. Dixon then stated his opinion that the children had been poisoned, Ana desired. the servant (Blizabetli Miller) might be sent w ith him to bring beck castor oil, which he ordered to be administered as Wail as possible. This was accordingly administered, and caused an increase or vomiting. I then found myself exceedingly ill, and gave env Mistress the child, and went to the back-door, where 1 vomits:if dreadfully, and ply Mistress ordered me some caster oil, which I took, The children and myself continued ill till five o'clock next morning, when I remarked at that time to my Mistress that I thought the child Elizabeth Ann, appeared better; in about a quarter Oran hour after, the deceased asked for chink, which.) gave her, and observed that sit, had charged countenance.

My Master sent again for Mr, Dixon, Before Mr. Dixon came, the had recovered from the first fit fie gayy her a little white wine, sent home again for medicine which he gave to both children„ end meself. Mr. Dixon staid nearly two hours, After he was gone, the Mild had three more fits, and expired about nine o'clock. About eight o'clock I found myself worse, much swelled. and very sick. To a question put by the coroner—if she knew of any poison in the house ?—she replied—About two months since she saw sotnething in a paper in the kitchen window, which one of the young men nil was poison, and cautioned her not to touch it, as ;.t WAS to be put with chopped beef upon cabbage-leaveseto he put into the slaughter-house, to poison rate.
