THE COURT& for the Trial of Geo. PG ve Murder of ars. HEIL ONCLITSION W TiSTERDAT'S PROCEEDINGS., Dr. Bhapleigh recalled.--Immedlatoly abbve the sofa,on the wall, the blood seemed to bespattered as though it flew from'a blow;on the western side of the Pine street WO and on Tenth street the blood was In a epray; the ere of the circle swept around as though it came from an instrument with centrifugal force; this spray continued plong the Tenth street side almoSt to the ilooret drop of blood on the door indicated that it had been open an inch:or two; (the witness here took two sheets of paper and explained;showing the blood to have swept around on the Pine street wall and continu ed around to the Tenth street , walel the drePs' e traced from the sofa to tho window formed a distinct track by direct dropping down; they Were circular, as though falling perpendicular from a raisedbody, such as produced by carry ing a bleeding body; the blood on the window was besmeared on the window, as if bloody cloth ing had come in contact with it; not such a mark as a bloody band would leave; bloody hair or clothing, and not a hand, would have made it; it was P- by sor 6 Inches; the body was clothed when Imade the post mortem; more skirts, un der-clothing, and flannel than is usual; very warmly dressed; the body must -have been not entirely dead, or death ensued very quickly after the body was in the yard, to cane coagulated blood; should not think blood would flow in half an hour after death; the body was dead, or had been very recently living, when thrown out: the falling of tho body from a win dow would have completed or onlargeff the large fracture; it seemed to me the fall was received on the right _aide of the head; the bruised condition of the puffs bere led me to - supeose this; there were no other bruises but the slight ones on the knees;. the bruices on the knees might have been caused by a fall on the knees. Mr. O'Byrne—The prisoner desires you to speak a little louder, Doctor, as he cannot hear what you say. Witness resumed—Sarah Campbell identified the body; the injuries to <the head caused death. Cross-examined by Mr. Mann—l have been en gaged as physician to the Coroner six or seven years; almost daily engaged in post mortoms; am satisfied it is almost impossibleto tell what kinds of - instruments inflict some wounds; I wean to say that It is posslble fOr an instrument like a poker to have inflicted the woundst e the penetrat ing and straight wounds might have been in flicted with a poker, and in a certain measure ob scured by the fall; the 'shaft_ of the poker could have produced__ the ..straight; wounds, and the tongue of the poker the penetrating wounds, or an instrument like it; don't know that I deal with , probabilities; I have said the tongue of the poker might have produced the penetrating wound; any instrument like it would have made the same wound; the lacerated wound was larger than the tongue of the poker; I see no brain about the tongue of the poker; I see what looks like blood on the shaft of the poker; it *could be likely that the poker would be exnearedwith blood wore it used as supposed: I estimated the size of the wounds by a piece of paper; did not measure them by a ruleeone_only was two inches long; they were not all the same length; a wound like I have described conid be produced by an instrument greater in diameter than the poker; the scalp was laid open, and it might have been , done by an in strument. two,or three times larger than the poker, r smaller; they could have been caused by a heavy walking-cane; I have seen just such wounds from a cane; Niece of cane, with heavy leaden head, shown j; the head of this cane would make a different wound from the stock of it, because it is shaped differently; if the wood of the cane had been scooped out and filled in with lead it would make some of the wounds; such an instrument would mash the skull in, but you could not account for the hole made in this head; perhaps sufficient velocity could be ob tained Out of a poker to make this wound; a canister @hot tied in a sling would mash in the skull, but not make the hole in the brain; I could readily put _ two fingers in this hole; I could force four fingers in, be cause I could stretch the scalp; it' the woman was lying on her left side she might have been struck from behind; in striking the blow, the moving of the poker about to get it out would have enlarged it; the other wounds might have been struck from behind or before; a woman would have moved around after the severe blow in the head; have seen a man thresh with a flail, a long lime ago; whoever struck the blows must have moved as she mewed; the straight part of a flat-iron would have made the blows on the head; a heavy slung-shot would; 1 slung-shots of various. patterns were shown to the witness, and he ex plained the kind of blows they would make;] don't think either slung-shot would have made the wound on top and back of the head; a triangular wound could possibly be made with one of these instruments; it would depend greatly on the quality of the iron as to its bending when struck across a skull; think it would go through a skull; \think it would go through the skull •before it would bend; I can say the wound might have been produced by a similar weapon to a poker; if I were going to invent an Instrument to do all that with, I would invent a different instrument; think it would have been nearly the same thing if a man had a shorter instrument than the poker to have dis tributed the arc of blood; it would depend on the size of the man somewhat whether the in strument wielded would strike the wall; ono of the sprays is pretty high, near the ceiling; there are two sprays on the wall; could not form an opinion whether the instrument that made the sprays was one, two or three feet; it would strike the wall probably if it were four feet; there was a woolen cap on the head, and the poker might have been taken away too quickly for blood to have got further down the poker than from the tongue to the handle; if it was this instrument then it mast Lye come in contact with her head thirteen times To Mr. Sheppard.—All the blows might have been billeted by the poker. particularly the straight ones: the lacerated ones might have been ; enlarged by the fall; all of the ins' - macros pro dneed here could not have produe the hole in ' the right temple, they could have produced the laceration: the height of the man, his position, and the way he grasped the instrument, would have had much to do with the cause of the arc of blood; the cap was tolerably thick, made of soft 1 wool, and was matted with blood,as was the hair I beneath:there were fragments of a hair comb still in the hair behind the back of the cap. To Mr. Malin.—lt is possible to push your fineer into a wound as far as you choose, after the skull is crushed in. To Mr. Sheppard.—There was a perforatimf I could see with my eye before I pat my finger in.

Morrell's I told a man who came to the door that Mrs. Hill didn't feel well, and Mrs. Twitchell whnted somebody to come over; I stopped a little and they weren't coming, and I went to the house by myself; when I got there, going in by the gate, some persons had come in; Mr. Twitchell was standing by the sofa, and I don't know if ho was bathing , Mrs. Hill'sface or not; did not take notice if ho did anything or no; did not hear aim; I was not near him, other personeheing -in the kitchen; Mrs. Twitchell asked me to go up stairs until she got some clothing on, and 1 did so; don't know how long it was vfirile she was getting dressed; came out shortly after she got dressed; think she came to the kitchen; Mr.Twitchell still there with a great number of persons; the candlestick used. in the kitchen was kept in a closet off the kitchen; there was a gas-burner in the kitchen; we used a candle for going out to the outside *Rehm and for going to the range; there were dishes on the table when I came in; I cleared it up before I went out; they usually took tea Sundays from six to seven o clock; they were sometimes lett on the table that way; the second-story dining room was heated with a grate; had not been there that afternoon; there was fire in it Monday morning; don't know as ever I found a candle burning in the kitchen_when I came in; Mrs. Hill would usually let me in with a candle;-the kitchen was heated by a range, the poker was usually kept hanging up by the side of the range; there was a poker in the second-story room with a brass top or head on it; the kitchen one was the longest; the burner in the entry was generally put out by Mrs. Hill be fore she went to bed; she staid up'some time after; did not look about the kitchen poker on Sunday evening; saw one in some man's hand; don't know where it came from; did not look for poker hanging beside the range; can't say if the poker in the man's hand was our kitchen poker; it looked like it, but I can't say it was it poker shown k this looks like our kitchen poker, but I can't say whether it is or not; never took notice to anything that I would know again; it had a head like this: don't know the length and weight, but it is some thing such as this; did not see any poker in the kitchen next day; did not look for any; it may or may not have been there, but I did not observe it; there were four dogs belonging to the house; if they heard any noise about they were noisy; if they beard people come in they barked; they were kept up stairs, I think, in Mrs,,HlLl's and Mr. Twitchell a rooms; never saw them there, but suppose they were kept there; don't remem ber seeing the dogs when I went int saw them in Mrs. Twitehell's room, and 'ionic down stairs; don't know that two of the dogs were considered"' Mrs. Hill's and two Mrs. Twitcheire: during the fore part of the evening the dogs were about the house, a herever the family were; a policeman asked me to go up stairs and see if any of the windows were up; went up and passed to the little back room and the lower sash was raised up and the Venetian blinds also; the blinds in the dining room were the same kind; did not hear Mr. Twitchell ask any one to make a search through the house.

To Mr. Hagert—Mr. and Mrs. Twitchell occu pied the back apartment of the front building, second story; as far as I understand, Mrs. Hill occupied the front second-story room. Mr. Mann called attention to the rule requiring but one counsel to examine a witness. Ho had no objection to Its being suspended, but as long as it was the rule, it should not be conducted with so gross an irregularity. Judge Brewster said the rule was not enforced strictly in homicide cases. It would be wise to confine to two counsel on each side. Mr. Mann said he objected to the counsel ask ing questions backwards and forwards; it never had user the practice. Judge Brewster thought he could recollect when the learned gentleman and his assistant were prosecuting it had been done. Judge Ludlow, said that had been his experi ence for ten years.

Cross-examined—The voice of Mrs. Twitchell, when I got in her house, sounded like the, one that called me. Mr. Mann—What did she say, in the entry? Objected to, as counsel for prisoner had ob jected to what she said on former occasions. Mr. Mann—Wo do not press it. Mr. Mann—What was her manner? Objected to. Juogo Brewster thought it competent, as the Commonwealth had already asked as to her ad mitting the witness.

The law' was found to have been fully complied with_ at the Musical, Fend Hall, the Assembly Building, and the Wheatley theatre, and the means of egress sufficient to empty the audience roots of each in about five minutes. At the Odd Fellows' Hall and Suter Hall they found the inside doors opening inward, and directed a change to be' made conformable to the law. At Long's Varieties and Jefferson Hall the doors were found to open properly. There was no perceptible danger from the heaters at any of the places visited, and at most of them every precaution had been taken to guard against tire.

Au infant is :sly helpless; and in that lies the guiltiest Licentiousness and lust are bad °ugh, but infanticide is so much worse,that - other pales before it. Now yon have en up the cause of this woman, just as if e were simply "unfortunate." In the first , te, no truly virtuous woman need to falL tnnot one of those who lay all the blame ;the man. In this age, especially, women ow what they are about; and, ladles. I con ;et that men are very generally besieged d tempted by women. Remember, lam Woman's - rights woman." I have resided _for several years past in •yr York, and I can truly say it is the Me i polls of the Infanticide ! What are the • ily records , there 3 Let the, ash barrels,the um, the areas, the sinks, the lots, the • 'ts, the north, south, east and west :tes ry.

Nobody knows about it, id very few care. Whose business is it ? Eddy has its "movements" in all-sorts.of. :ht causes, but who takes up the cause of ese victims ? If Pennsylvania (more lightened than boastful, swollen, pompons ew York) tries to initiate a reform in is , direction, she is reined •in and eddied - with by New York under the name "humanity." Faugh! Let us have pity on e innocent ones, really, instead of, a false mpathy with criminals. Now, I ask you, bat is to be done to stop infanticide. Some ing.must be done. In New York luxurious ansions are built and costly equipages roll, d their foundations are 'murdered Fella , I." We are worse than the Chinese; who .nually slaughter their myriads of super oafs children, benause we pretend to a :her civilization." In openly-espousing the use of "Hester Vaug,han" you'have opened e flood-gates of infanticide. There will be prestige cast about such "misfortunes," and woman who resigns her virtue (that is, to .6 the orthodox term, "is betrayed,") and en kills her child from cowardice, will be ..ked upon as a sort of stage heroine. Why, ere are doubtless thousands of American • omen just ready to signalize themselves in is way, and pocket the money raised by • e morbid,unhealthy sympathy with crime, shown in the case of this Englishwoman. 'ow, my idea of "courage" and yours are erent. I think Hester Vaughan would ve been leas guilty if she had openly da mmed her "betrayer," and saved some in ocent girl from becoming his wife—" Let -tire be done, though the heavens far— ad by clinging to her child her = guilt would •ve been fully expiated. But we differ. Finally, I ask you do you consider infants ortal beings or not ? There may be any of yon, and many not of you, who on't believe in 6011111. Surely if they are only .imals, then they should come under the re ef of the humane Mr. Bergh's society. There herald be the penalty against Hester Vaughan der the law against "cruelty to animals at • : Et," instead ol rewarding her for her crime. • las! that there should , be such perversions everything. For God's sake, it' you want cress to your cause, don't come out with nett ardor for "murdering mothers." Respectfully, yours, Malty C. MORGAN, "A Cosmopolitan." Jaespiran and Suffocation. The lecture on Respiration and Suffocation sy Prof. llcQuillen, before the Young Men's liristian Association on Friday evening, ecember 18th, was delivered in the pre emie of a large audience of ladies and gentle en, who manifested a marked interest s roughont. The lecturer commenced by escribing respiration as a function essentiat 1 the life of vegetables and animals. In egetables, during the day and under the in erice of light,carbonie gas is absorbed from ; e atmosphere by the leaves of trees and slants, the carbon becoming incorporated in • e vegetable tissues, and oxygen given back • o the air and thus purifying it, At night,how • ver, this is reversed by the plant giving off ; rbonic acid gas, and absorbing oxygen, as - the case with animals , at all times during I e maintainance of life. The various modi s cations of respiratory organs were then de . ribed by passing from the simplest form to e most complex in man. The leaf was hown to be the most simple form, the under . affects h av in g an immense number of stomata • r air holes for the ingress and egress of car s onie acid gas and oxygen. This was iilus-- rated by means of class microscopes pabsed rom hand to hand around the room, showing specimens of the India rubber tree and box • ood, prepared by Mr. Walmsley. The ar rangement of the respiratory surface in the s • onuses (oyster) was demonstrated by papier 41 ache preparation, representing the mantle or folds in that type of animals. The stig mata or air holes in the sides of insects, and the trachea leading from them, were pre sented in papier macho, and under the mi croscope exhibiting at interesting insect (the pediculus) prepared by Mr. Starr. The gills, or braneha, and heart of fishes, the lungs and heart of the frog, the serpent, birds and mam ma, and the most complex form of a respi ratory apparatus of all in man were made manifest by a number of additional papier • mache preparations, including a life-sized mannikin. Having passed over in a general but cemprehensive manner the comparative anatomy of the organs,the function of respir ation was shown to be divided into two ac tions of inspiration and expiration, during which oxygen is taken into the lungs and carbonic acid gas given off. The blood cir culating• in -the capillaries, vessela of the lungs, 'during this ' process undergoing a marked change. The blood coming from the sight side of the heart as venous, parting with its carbonic acid gas (the result of the disin tegration of the'muscUlar,nervous, and 'other tissues), absorbs the oxygen and is converted into arterial blood, which passes from the lungs to the left side of the heart, to be dis tributed to every part of the body, carrying the vivifyingand stimulating oxygen to every tissue, the activity of the nervous and mus cular structure in particular being dependent upon a.' constant and new supply of this element. Its union with them constitutes their oxygenation, a ape : ties of slow combustion, and being analogous to the rusting of iron, which is only h differ ; ence in degree of the burning of it fire in the grate, or flame of a gas or lamp which 11- 'lnmes a room. The union of oxygen with the tissues and with articles of food, and the evolution of heat during th, process, is a means whereby warm blooded animals main , lain the tame temperature under varying cli- matte influence. The difference of color in venous and arterial blood is due, according to the view , of some physiologists, the oar -f_ bonic acid gas darkening it, in - We iine,':l62ll' the'inlygon, bY;titibining the - iron the blood, giAng it a ecarldhue.in the Other . 7 , Anothir:vieVadvanced lathat moditlations" take place in the form of do corpuscles of , the blood (millions of littlabodies circulating in this'which in the venous blood its - 1 snore a bi-convex forth ilia in the arterial a bi-concave, the rays of 'light being differently refracted by these bodies, and zmparting a different hue. , , Thel343 corPtisclds are the active= "agents that stream of life, the blood, in carrying oxygen, to, and carbonic acid gas fromy the tissues. The importance of breathing" pure air was referred to, and the frequent dullness of lecturers and preacher/Mind the drowsiness of audiences attributed to impure air, which they are compelled to breathe, from being confined - to imperfectly ventilated rooms. .Too much attention 'could not, indeed, be paid to this matter „in the construction of churches, court houses;places of amusement and other public buildings, and in dwelling houses,where so many hours of our lives are past, our bedrooms in particular, where one third of our life is spent, should be duly ven tilated, permitting the escape of impure air, and the ingress of pure air, by having a win dow lowered from , the, top in, slimmer and winter,' if other means of ventilation have not been provided. Vheliability to suffocation from the inhalation of noxious gases, escape of the common burning gas from the pipes, the fumes of charcoal,accidental or voluntary drowning or hanging,impending death from the inhalation of antestheties, ether, chloro form; or nitrous oxide,was referred to in con clusion, and the simplest and most , philoso phical method of resuscitation described, as follows: Place the person in that condition on his back, elevating the shoulders by put ting a pillow or beadle of clothes under them; then tailing hold of the hands and carrying them over the head and then bringing the arm down by the side, pressing upon the chest, repeating this slowly and deliberately from sixteen to eighteen times in minute (the number of times in which normal respi ration occurs). drawing at the same time the tongue out of the mouth, so as to keep the passage open; by this means artificial respirs, tion *tiny be`established and maintained until the vital powers of innovation and circula tion are sufficiently recovered from the im pression made upon them to re-establish, nor mal respiration; during this process the appli cation of friction by the hand and warm water and cloths should be made to the body and extremities. The employment of elec tricity in extreme cases has been found use ful. 44 Our Noble President'', "Warrington" writes as follows to the ,S'printificki Republican: , Let me, however compromise by denoun cing the old reprobate in the Presidential chair, whose message yesterday to Congress seems to have been the very worst ot alt`his utterances. The indignation of Senate and Houso was quite pardonable, though per haps it would have been as well to have the message read in extents). I don't see why Mr. Fessenden did not come to the rescue of his chief against Radical attacks. It was not necessary to defend his atrocious opinions bat only their conscientionaness. I understand that Mr. Curtis, in his Fraternity lecture last Tuesday evening, took-ground, substantially; that it is wicked to speak against a man who acts conscientiously,no matter how wickedly he acts. I. see no reason to doubt that Ludy Johnson is as conscientious in his last message as Fessenden was in his vote. Con science, it seems, is to be the apology for every offence. Let us have a new statute,and new forms of proceeding. When a man, is arraigned for crime,let him say "conacience," and then let the inquiry proceed whether he has acted according to conscience, and, if he has, let him go free, and,moreover, tet every body who objects be denounced as a radical and a disturber of the peace. No: this won't do; for the man who objects has a • right to his conscience, and he who denounces him must also be denounced. No, again—why where shall we stop? Will Mr. Curtis give us his exact programme? I am informed that Mr. Sumner came in for a share of his censure because he had spoken uncivilly of Mr. Fes senden. But suppose Mr. iiumner's conscience impelled him also ? Dear me, we are all in a muddle. I hope we shall have a correct report of the latest Gospel on this subject. The newspaper accounts are very meagre. It appears that Butler made his appearance again as Captain Kidd, or as Fagin, I ( annot quite make out which. I am sur prised that the lecturer does not diversify this part of the entertainment by introducing Black Beard or Claude Duval, and relieving Kidd, who has done duty a great while now. Or, as the Advertiser's reporter intimates that one-half the audience were uneasy dur ing the delivery of the discourse, sitting on pins and needles, sober and unhappy when Fagin was alluded to, and so on, I would sug gest that some accomplished comic vocalist be employed to "spell" the orator by singing the old Capt. Kidd song as an illustration of the text. Now that Johnson has made such a bad exhibition of himself, he might, if it would be no offence to his Senatorial backers, be made to figure as Dick Turpin, who, you know, when he met a bloated bondholder of his day, "Put three bullets through his nob, ARd peitrailed on him to stop." This describes very well the new Johnson- Pomeroy plan of financial relief. k zi ; 11111 FALL, 1868. LUMBER FOR BUILDERS, LOW. F. H.
