The else was argued with- much abil i t y and at great .
length by Messrs. 3 - emups tot the &Name, and by
Messrs. Bentley and Bushnell for the . prosecution.—
Mr. Bentley closed his arjnuent; and Judge Wilmot
delivered his - charge to' the Jtu7, on Monday after
;
asfollOwit:
'Charge of the Court.
The Court read to the jury the definition of Mur
der, as given ire the first paragraph on the 33d page
of Wharton's "Law of Homicide," and remarked that
Our statute had divided thistffenca into two degrels
--- , Abet our statute had not given a new definition of
this clime, different from thescommon law, but had
psovidedlthat only certain 'kinds- of murder therein'
tieser r itredothould be deemed murder in the first de
gree find punishable with death. Before rendering
a verdict o! guilty against the Prisoner of Murder in
the first degree, the jury should be fully satisfied that .
the; killing waft not only done wilfully, but with deliti s ,
eration and premeditation. The law implies the Male
lee necessary to conetitista murder, from the killing
With a deadly weapon hell is the prisone; bid in his . _;

`degree, under bur statute c soniething.more is tee-1
essary—the weapon tuna have been used with defile r .
e'rate at . ld premeditated intentto take life, not upon
sudden impulse and pasiihn; or under eireunistances
indicating the absence of such deliberate and pre-
Maitated - clesign. .It is not neeestary that'the 'pur
pose of takingsli k should hate been harbored- for
esy - leegth of fime- 7 ifit exists in the breast even - for 1
..ismieute, the killing is murder in the first degree ;-- I
liut the jury should be fully and undoulaingly assur
ed that the slayer did entertain such settled and fix
ed purpose.
I The Court have' said ' , that, in the absents -of 'any ,
other evidence throwing light upon the matter, mai-
iit is implied from the killing with a•Aendly weapon.;
,The , law presumes that the, natural•aild necessssv re- ;
snit of an act, is interded ;- - but .it does 'no' follow, '
that such natural result was deliberately rad premed
itatedly contemplated, and this'Sis essential to the
"crime of munier in the first degree. -, -
, • -The Court here read from the ?Ath page of the
"Law of homicide" before refosred to, as •follows :
"'The killing prolsed, even though" nothing else be
shown., it has therm repeatedly held in Massachusetts
that thOoffence is murder ;•• the burden of extenua
tion.being then 'brew:a on the defendant; and such
.is Undoubtedly tie oeriefarrule. In Ohio, the pre- -
suptption of killil ,
.g albite, is that of murder in the
"second degree s and so also is held to • be the law in
Virginia. Is the latter State,however,.it is said that
when '.the mortal wound is given with s2deridly weap
on in the slayer's previous possession. there being
no evidence of provocation, the case is prima facia,
'Mustier in the first degree; and so also is the rule- in
Pennsylvania." ,
' I From the plinciple just lard down by this court, it
will he seen te:it., we do not adopt the doctrine con
tained in the. List sentence read s but incline to the .
More, humour doctrine stated to prevail in Ohio.—
The presumption of malice arises from the use of .a
deadly Weapon; but the deliberatitin and premedita
tion necessary to the. offence ot murder in. the first
•ilegree, ii not a matter of legal presumption, but
must be found from the,evidence and facts of the
case, actually to 'have existed „in the breast of the
slayer.. , .
! Let us look at those Mots in this case which arc
ao clearly established as to be relied upon with,cer
minty—such facts as the Court and • jury may lean
npon with safety. We may with safety say from the
evidence, that- the deceased came to hili death by
thetischarge'gr a gun in the hands of the prisoner.
Here see have a killing by the prisoner with a deadly.
weapon, mid the legal presumption, as we have seen,
is murder at common law, and as we have indicated,
Murder in, the secondiegree, under our statute.
; We can 'probably proceed one step further with
Certainty, and, say that there was an angry and etch- '
ing (funnel ihe fairfily that teeming, immediately

Hew far ought, iissadditional fact to afts' , ct the legal -

cases, the law kindly appreciating the infirmities of
human torture; extenuates the offence committed and
mercifully hesitates te , put on the same footing of
guilt, the cool deliberate act, and the result of hasty
passion." •,
