by the counsel for the prisoner, not only with grea
seal and ability, but also under the fullest and
deepeit impression of tho responsibility attonding
their official petition ; and wa have endeavored
to give, to them that serious and careful consid
eration which tb solemn importance of this case
demands. In doing so, we have tried to koep iu
view that tbolesue is one of lifennd death to this
prisoner, and consequently we havo given him
the full benefitof all the doubts and presumptions
which should enter into tho considoratioa of the
questions presented to us.
Tb reasons offered, why a new triul should be
granted, are as follows:
1. Because there is not sufficient evidence to
warrant the conviction of murder iu the first
degree.
In our view of the case, the main question upon
which its final determination rested, was whether
the act was done designedly, and not by accident;
and if inUntionally, then whether it was done
"wilfully, deliberately, and with premeditation,"
such a accords with the provislous of tho Act of
1704- And we are now asked to say, in deciding
th motion for a new trial, that there was no evi
dence in the case that would warrant the finding
of sack a verdict 04 was rendered by the Jury.
In deeiding this question, we are not to invade
the provino f th Jury, Hrho are by law the
judges of the facts a wise prevision of the law
which, constitutes oni of the great safeguards of
the accused ; and wo would tlx re fore not be jus
tified in granting a new trial merely because, from
a view of th cridenoo, tb minds of the jury
tnigBl have been led to a different conclusion as
to bis guilt, or the degree thereof. Wher jurors
undertake to render verdict which is manifestly
contrary to the evidence, ot'wHer there is no
evidence to warrant the finding, tho duty ef the
Court to set aside the vordict, and rondvr a Bw
oue, is quite apparent ; but where there is no evi
dence bearing npoo th question, the Court will
not, an 1 should not, disturb the verdict merely
because it may not be such as they bad expected
would be rendored, nor because It would have
decided th question of fart differently. Even
in viow of tho soltmn consequences resulting from
this verdict, we cannot say that there was not
evidence in the case from which tb jury might
find the existence of the requisites to murder in
the first degree. The killing was not denied, not
that th deceased came to her death by the hands
of the prisoner, and the question of intention, as
well as of the degree of guilt, was fairly and fully
submitted to the jury for their finding ; they have
passed upon th question and have rendered their
verdict; and the question wh;ch is now pro
ssnted to us is, not whether w would have found
a different verdict, but whether the verdict ren
dered by the jury is a lcgit'uu ate result of the de
termination of the questions of fact submittod to
them. W will not undertake to analyze the evi
dence in the caso, nor mention nor enumerate the
facts and circumstances from which the jury
might infer an intentional killing, and the pres
ence of malice, premeditation, Ao. It is sufficient
for us to lav, that whilst we might have been
satisfied with a verdict finding a lower degree of
homicide, the jnry, who have passed upon the
facts, after a full argument, and a charge as fa
vorable to the prisoner as h'e could reasonably
ask or expect, have found otherwiMe, and we can
not sea bow we can interfere with this verdict,
without a palpable violation of duty.
2. Because th Court erred in admitting the
testimony of Mrs. Ray in rebuttal of the prison
er's case, and in admitting tb declarations of
John Cathcart, made in Jail.
' 'fhls was not urged ia th argument, and we
set no reason for changing onr viows as to th
competency of th tvldenc ; besides, the defend
ant has asked us to seal a hill of exceptions, of
which b may bare the full benefit in a higher
Court, If we have erred In this behalf. , .
A, Th jurors wsre nt properly sworn.'
In passing upon this alleged reason for a new
trial, wa havo boa requested by tho prisoner's
counsel to state tba manner in which the jurors
were sworn, so that If an error bas been com
mitted, tbe prisoner may not be deprived of th
benefit of it. To this request we cheerfully
assent. None of the jurors were sworn nnt'l th
whole twelve were erapannelled. The oata was
Hon administered to them, not separately, but as
many as swore by the book were asked to arise,
and they were sworn thus: "You and each of
yoa, swears," c, using tb form of oath, and so
on as to those who were qualified in a different
form. The defendant's counsel now except to
this mod 4 of sweating ft jury, aid insist Out each
jury saiouid hsv been sworn separately. ' are
awar that ordinarily this is done, but the Court
were indneed ia this ease to defer swearing th
nry until the panel wa full, that they might be
ntiliirail nn .nenunt nf rnmnr. ahih

prevail throughout th country, to dismiss th
jury and continu th cat. We cannot lee any
reason wby tb mode adopted It anlawful. Th
Jurors were by thl. modo severally placed nnder
th obligations of th tath, pot at netuallv to
alllntnt and purposes, as though it had been
Mmtnltured to each en in tueecitlon. W ean

The testimony of Mr. Paulhamus fully explains I
bow this ocourred, and wo fuil to so In tbu truus'
action an) thing that calls fur th granting of a
now trial. He merely entered the outildo door,
ascended tho stairway, looked Into the upper room
occupied by th Jnry, and aaked fur the bulbilo
robes which were needod by th owner of the
building, and who requested the tip strive to pro-1
cu.e them for him. No injury eould poscibly
occur to the prisoner from this, nor do we find

7. Because of errors in tbo Court, and improper
influences on the jury.
Upon this general reason it Is unnecessary to
innko any comment; and hence we will pass to
the consideration of tho eighth aud last reason
assigned, as follows :
8. Localise tho defendant is convicted ef a
higher crime of murdor thun he can be guilty of
under tho testimony, nnd has. sinco the trial, dis
covered evidence to prove taut hie miod was in
capable of premeditulion by reason of intoxica
tion. This proposition has been pressed upon us with
great seal aud earnestness, and calls for a close
and careful examination. Tbe first branch of it
- ....
reason assigned, and the lattei clause asserts, us
a reason assigned for a nsw triul, the discovery
ef material ividence since the rendition of the1
verdict Mr. Wharton, in his admirablo treatise
on Amerioau Criminal Law, at page 1030, tnys :
"A party who seeks for a new (rial on the
ground of newly-discovered evidenco l chargable
with laches, if previous to the trial ho knew thut
the witness, whoe testimony he seeks to intro
duce as newly-disoirered, must probably, from
his continuation aud employment at the time of
the transaction, the subject ot oouUuve.iy, be
conversant with the fuels in relation ti the trans
action, and especially where, provious to the trial,
the party knew, as the witues niu.sell testifies to,
what tbe witnef could prove, although at the
time of the trinl, and while preparing thorefor,
the party had forgotten the fa its."
Now apply this rule to the case ia hand. The
prisoner, by bis counsil, alleges that h can now
prove by several witnesses that li3 was Intoxi
cated at the time the act was consummated. Giv
ing to tbe prisoner the full benefit of this excep
tion, we may not shut our eyes to the fact that
from the testimony of these witnesses, the pris
oner must hnv knows at the tri.il, and while he
was preparing for trial, that those witnesses were
oogiiiant of the facts which he desires to prove
by them. Thoy were present with him. saw him
driuk and fill his bottlo, and the prisoner drank
twice nt tho house of Mr. ShorT, and several thnos
with John Hrejpry. Now, when we consider that
this all occuried on the day en which Airs. Cath
cart met her death, and but a few weeks before
the trial, and apply t it the rule of law we have
just quoted, can this testimony, with any degroe
of propriety, bo called " aftor-discovored (esti.
moiiy?" No effort was made to procure tho at
tendunce of these wilnosses, aud the persons who
woro sworn as witness upon the trial, and who
were present and saw tho prisoner and conversod
with him, or heard him converso with others, im
mediately or soon after the aot was done, wore
not interrogntedjos to bis condition at the time
whether intoxicated or sober. Thomas Cathcart
testified that be was there when the gun went off;
aucy Cathcart swoars that she was there a few
minutes after j and othor witnesses, who cam in
during tho evening, would most probably have
been able to state th condition of the prisoLtr;
but th question was not asked of any of thorn,
so fur as we remember, except Dr. Fetzer, who
snys that, not having known tho prisoner previ
ously, he could not sty whether he was Intoxicated
or not. But th counsel of the prisoner assert
that, althought the testimony might or should
havo been known to the prisoner at the trial, yet,
through ignorance' or forg etfuluees, he failed to
communicate it to tbem. This, as will b soeu
by th rule already quoted, is no grouad for ask
irg a now trial. We are clearly of opinion thut
the prisoner has nut brought bis ease within tu
rules in regard to after-discovered evidence j otf
the contrary, we aro constrained to say that in
the rules of law ar observed, this oaanut upon
tny principle be called newly -discovered evi
dence. Again : wo ar asked to consider, In droidlog
this motion, that a great deal of public prejudice
and much excitement prevailed at tho time of
he trial, and that th prisoner has consequently
been denied the benefits of a fair and Impartial
trial. We are not roat'e aware of such a slat of
feeling, other than by the assertions of connsel,
if w except tb rumors that are afloat as to the
feeling in the neighborhood. The jurors, upon
being called, wor, at the request of the prison
er's connsel, put upon their oi dirt, and very
few of tbem wer found to havo formed or ex
pressed any opinion in reference to the guilt or
innocence of the prisoner. But admitting th
lact to be so, w cannot see that it affords any
reason for granting a new trial. If tch a state
of feding did exist, and th Court had been
properly Informed oT tbe fact, they would, if ths
request bad been made, had suspended tho trial
until a change of venue could be had, or torn
oinor steps taken to avoid th difficulty. But the

' reference to their welfare, w will try to earry
out so f ar as lies in our power. Y ou Lav been
charged with the crime of murder. At tho last
re gular term of this Court a true bill was found
against yon by th Grand Jury. You were ar
raigned, and pleaded not guilty. A Jury of your
Country were culled, and twelve of your fcllow
cilixens wore ehoveri by you to try whether you
were guilty of the charge. You were allowed
twenty peremptory challenges ; and, although the
Commonwealth's aouusol demanded their right
I to challenge four jurors peremptorily, th Court
doubted tbe rlht, and the benofit of that doubt
was given to you. You were confronted by the
witnesses of the Commonwealth, and you had the
procoss of the law to summon witnesses in your
defence. Yon were defended by learned and able
counsel, who have conducted your defence with
a degree of teal und ability, and with a mauifos-
j t ition of interest, which does cret.it as well to
the head as the heart, In all qnestiont of evi
dence and questions of law, you receivod from
the Court tho full benefit of all our doubts. Tho
Couit, iu t'toir charge tj tho jury, endeav
ored to present your caso fairly, and in such way
as to bring to the notice of the jury all the requi
sitct of tho crime alleged agiiust you, and the
circumstunces out of which doubts might possibly
aris. The jury were duly ouutio ncd at to enter
taining any feeling or prejudico against you, and
thut they woro soleuiuly charged to determine
the question of your guilt or innocence. They
find you guilty of murder in the first degree. A
motion was made for a cew trial and in arrest of
judgment, which, for rtoaens which you have just
heard, the Conrt have folt obliged to overrule
Yon bare had. In our opinion, a full and a fair
trial, which has resulted in your conviction. In
passing sentence upon you, we ar bound to as
sume tho finding of the jury as true; and we
therefore charge you to consider well tb nature
and consequences of yaur crime. Yon have been
found guilty of tb wilful and deliberate murder
of a fellow-ereature ; nsy, more, the partner of
your life and tho mother of your little children,
