Thdbsdat, July 1.
In the Court of Oyer-and Terminer.— Before
' Hon.'Wm. B. M’Clure, President Judge; and
Williamßoggs and PatriokM’ Kenna, JEaqs., As
: . sooiate Judges
• hobhiko sessios:.
The examination of William Cuthbert, on the
part of the Commonwealth,- was resumed, this
morning, at the meeting of the Court; at nine
o’clock.
■ WOtiam Cuthbert tKom —Mr, C. proceeded to
describe the cupboard. TherewerO three shelves
on the cupboard, and the crock containing the
• sugar would go in no shelf bnt the middle one.
I examined the cupboard the day after the death
. of the children. The stuff woe on the middle
shelf, which was the one the crock stood on.*—
. The erode was too long to go in any shelf but
.the middle. :We used the balance of the sugar
- afterwards—we - had- used the ■ sugar 1 about a i
week before the poisoning, nt whioh time there
were a few pounds , left' The stuff on tho
• shelf was of a brownish color; There was not
■ much differenoein the color of the sugar and tbo i
- stuff—if.anything the sugar was the darkest.—
Igave some of. the stuff to Coroner Arthurs—but
to no other person. Mr. Arthurs got the stuff ]
after the funeral of the little girl. Used the tea |
afterwards. .It was bldtk tea. Wsb Uotpresont
at the finding of any papor in the kltohen. Wil
liam purged shortly before ho died; he waß-in
great pain.. He stated that a pain was in hißj
neck; hands were cramped, and hisstomach was |
Bore. [Mr. Cuthbert described the naturo" of j
the purging.] He called for.water., About!
two hours passed-from the poisoning until hoi
took the coffee., When my wife was Bick the
- symptoms were the same. . I did not vomit or
purge, nor drink any of the coffee. Did not
- drink or eat anything that night, but was very
dry. My wife drank the coffee.. The children,
after they took the poison, werewhitc, swarthy,
and yellow ;\beforo they took, it were, very
healthy In appearance. My wife,'before she
took the poison, was also healthy in appearance.
x No person could come abontJhe -house without
the dog barking very fiercely* except it was. a
- member of the family;—the dog would not leave
the house while I was there. The Friday night
after the children were bnrried, I went np to Cau
' ley’s room to see whether the fire was out. I
heard Mrs. Cauley say—“ John it was a good
; job that stuff was found in the cupboard.’'—l
was aboutholf way up stairs. She said, “if
it had not been found there, all the water in the.
river would not clean yon and I of the murder
■ of.the children.” I knew they were not asleep
then, and I came down Btairs. In about an Hour
. I went up again, and called John to get up and
put out the fire, which was large;—he got up and
jput it out. Hover told them that I blamed
xhezn for the murder, before the Friday night
Never beard any one tell them? On this Friday
.evening, (after children were hurried,} I . went
.out into the kitchen, where Mrs. Cauley was.—
Jiho said there had been a great deal of talk
about this;—and that as soon as it could be
: known it would be found out- I told Mrs. Cau
. ley that ifl could speak the truth, it would have
been found cut Ido not hhow who poisoned
thechUdren, nor did I see Buy one put the poison
- in the tea-kettle, nor tell any one to do so.
Cross examined by Col. Black—Took tea about
six o’clock. The dog had went into the kitchen
about half an hour before I went to sapper;—
My wife kept the tea in a large glosß bottle in a
bureau, in the- front room; tho sugar was kept
in tho cupboard in the middle room. There
were about four or five pounds of sugar in tho
■ tbo crock; the saleratus had been in the cup
board about six months before. It was not
brought into tho houso by my family, It was
brought down stairs into the. room where the i
children were taken sick. Thiß. stuff was the]
, only thing we-found that was iu the paper; a
number of bottles were also left; wo brought them |
downstairs; there was liquor in the bottles; we I
pat tbe saleratus in the bread about nine months j
• before; , there was no sugar, bowl on the shelf; ]
. tho fence is about eight or,ten feot high ; there ]
were no open.places that a stranger could come i
into'the yard but through the alley; my wife |
first mentioned that the children were poisoned; I
,abe said then, that some one had poisoned the ]
hydrant; my wife was in the middle room, when!
tCauley’told her the kettle wasboiling over; when
,we found that tho children, were sick, we were
•a great deal excited. Cauley wasup stairs, and
when he came down ho asked what was the mat
ter; I said the children were poisoned, or some
thing was the matter with the tea; I tasted Uie
- tea three times,-and' took about a tea-spoonful
each time; there was nothing else I supposed
... was poisoned hat the tea; Cauley, when he came
down stairs did cot taste the tea; when he come
down I was examining the tea; and had the pot
. In my hands;, when Canley picked up the bowl,
T had laid down the tea-pot; I was "watching
• Cooley when he took the tea in his hands, but
.• did not pay attention to him for any time; about
an hour after tbe children-were taken sick, I
. started for the Doctor; when I started for the
Doctor I was not excited; bnt when I went to
•Dr, Thom’s was so excited- did not think of the
v 'bell.' T wrappedht Dr. Thorn’s, but did not get
in; went directly from Dr. Thom’s to Dr. M’-
‘ - Cook’s; Dr. M’Cook told me conld not go, as be
had on important operation to perform. Did not
. hear Dr. M’Cook say that be would set up an
hour andwaitforrae, if tho ohildren got worse;
- ■it was shortly after I came from the Doctor’s the
. < first time that I lay down; I was in the front
- room; the stairs go np ontof the kitchen to
- Conley’s room. Did not vomit in going to or
; from the Doctor’s; went into Cauley’s room first
-about half an hour-after Icame from: the Doa
' tor’s; .1 was about half way up stairs when I
heard Mrs. Cauley make tho exclamation as to
poisoning the children;: think they were in bed
- nt the time; they spoke so loud that I could not
' . be mistaken; it was about an hour after night
when-I was on the stairs; I was in my stocking
• feet at that time; the object I had in going up
stairs was to see whether the fire was out; I had
. another object; my wife had a difficulty with
. Mrs. Cauley on that night; it was on that even
ing Mrs, Cauley made the charge against my
wife; another reason I had was owing to tbe bad
- feelings of Cauley, I was afraid he would bum
. the house down; my wife and myself blamed
-Cauley on Monday night; I beard no talk about
the murders between-Manday and Friday. Mrs.
Cauley said there had been a great deal of talk
back and forwards about the death of the child
ren. On Saturday, I made the information be
. lore the Mayor; I was sworn on the Sabbath aft
. .ter the poisoning had taken place. Manyper
- sons.were shown the saleratoß, and several took
it away; the peoplo that live in the other house,
bars access to the same yard. Gallagher's came
. to live in my house in the-fall. The dog wonld
- go out and play in the yard, .where these peoplo
. had access. Gallagher left , after the children
- died—it was inside of- a month. ,Do not know
. where they are now.
; By Mr. Alden.-*ldo not think this family has
' gone down the river. They did not leave the
: day after the poisioning.
ilrt. -Cuthbert sworn—Am the wife of Mr.
Cuthbert. Had three ohildren, Robert, William
and Mary Anne. They were in good health on.
-the fourth of April. I went out to the kitchen,
to got tbo supper for the family, after five
o’clock that day. . I took tho tea kettle,'and
, wrenched it out at the hydrant, and then filled
• it with water, as it camo out of the hydrant—
-wrenched it out clean, and filled it ont with wa
■: ter and then put' it on the-etovo. There were
no persons in the kitchen When I wont out, and
came in. I then went into middle room. The
•door into the kitchen was open, when I went ont
but tho children closed it. I sat with my faeo to
the fire —bnt my side was to thodoor. I sat
- there about ten minutes, may be, more. John
Cauley called me,in a loud voice to come out, the
kettle is boiling. I laid the child on the flour,
: - snd'Went out to the kitohen, Cauley was Bitting„i
smoking, near tho stove. He was sitting be
■ tween the stove, and the kitchen door.. When.l
went out, I thought the kettle was boiling. ,1
then went, and got some black, tea, came, back,
and Canley was sltll there. .'.I then put *tbe tea
into the kettle. The kettle was on the stove.—
000 of the boys closed the door, and I, went in
to the ; child-for-abont a quarter-of, an, hour.
’ When I went out, to set the sapper table, Canley
had gone up stairs: ■ I took the kettle off, the
stove.; I-pntthe sugar into the tea pot.set the,
table, and called cut to my husband, that sup
per was ready. ■- My husband came out to sup
per. My husband cut tbe bread, ODd the ehil
4ten, commenced eating; and drinking the tea—;
::: my bnsb&nd went into the room, to get a choir
for himself. and as he—was about setting
v down, the children said ths tea was very 'bitter,
both Robert and William. - My- husband , asked
.: . .. . me. whether I sweetened the tea, I told him I
: - did-.-:. Robert and William commenced vomiting,
. and father then got up, tasted the tea and said it
• was bitter. I went to my .own bowl, and
took a good mouthful, and swallowed it. It
had a cold, nauseous taste. Both of the boys
‘ commenced vomiting, ani l said “my ohildren
are poisoned." Cauley then came down, and asked
, .what: was the’matter.My husb'and asked Cauley if
- •- he bad not dropped some , tobacco in -tbo kettle.
• I put my hand into the kettle and drew up a
of tea leaves,and there was awhitoglle-
, Siting.substance in'it; ,1-showed it to Cauley and
my husband; tho staff/was.mixed among the tea
loaves; I; took, up the leaves there was a
thick substance in the bottom, which gliGtonod;
as near as.l could judge, thcro was about a tea
spoonful; aToubd the sides of the'kettle, on the
inside, there, was a kind- of white, shining sub- :
stance; it was hard against the sides of the ket.
tie.. I then said the hydrant was poisoned. My
husband.aald it could notget into tho pipe. Cau- 1
ley called on his wife that they were oil poisoned.
From the time I took the tea, it was about an
1 hour before I vomited; I took tho coffee, howev
er, before I vomited, whioh continued until l.or
2 o’clock; lolbo purged, andhad a burning pain.
The next day my'tongue was in- blisters, and. I
i could hardly take a mouthful of tea. - My chil
dren were in the greatest kind of agony, from
purging and vomiting. It operated the.same on
all. 1 They called for drink; William complained
-that his neck was very sore. William died about.
throe b’clock, after my husband had started for
Dr. M’Oook.' The other died about 7 or 8 o’clook.
Therewas"nothing in tho bread nr flonr, which
we used afterwards without any bad effects. I
used the milk and sugar in the morning, and the
tea tho evening before, without any bad effeot.
There hod been nothing-else but batter on the
table, which we used three days before, and af
terwards used the balance; thuygar crook-was
on the shelf; the stnff was .game shelf
with the crock: we used the staff last sntnraer in
the bread,-for saleratns; it waslyingin the same
place last summer; there was about a pound; 1 1
took it for saleratus,: for the effect it had on tho i
bread; which was the same as saleratus; I
think tho stuff was the same as was there last i
summer,: but tho rats had spread it over the
shelf; I took tho-sugar ont of the crock with my
hand; the twolvo pounds of BUgar did not fill tbd
crock. I seen several persons take away the
stuff: the stuff was wrapped in white paper; it
Was of a yellow color; tho-sugar was of a light
oolor. On Friday, when my hußband went for
tho doctor, my sister name , into tho room and i
Btruok her list upon the table, and said it was i
myself and: hnßband that it (the poisoning) was i
between; she then went and stood np by tho man-:
tel-piece, and Cauley came in and swore by his <
Qod that it was myself and husband that had
poisoned our own children, I told them to go
away, and not to trouble mo, for I was sick.
They then oursed and abused me; when they
heard my husband’s steps, as ho came in, they
went out of the room. My sister and I. had a
few words previous to this; she used to drink
liquor, and 1 reproved her lor it, but she abused
me. -
By a Juror —lt appears tomo that Cauley was
either drank or mad.
By Col. Black, for defence —I got my milk on
Sunday morning.- Cauley was not in the kitch
en when I brought the kettle in from the yard..
By a Juror*- Could not tell the height of the
cupboard. It was aboutthe height of anordina
ry door. - There was no crock on any ; other shelf
than the middle shelf.
By Mr. Alien —The closet had no door. It
was in the middle room.
*By a Juror- —There was a crack on the top
shelf, above-where the sugar stood. There was
nothing else but that stuff on the shelf. The
crock of sugar was not always covered; and it
stood under the crack.
William M. Arthurs sworn —Held an inquest
on the body of the children. Scraped tho staff
off the shelfinto a paper, far the purpose of
having it analized. Took some sugar also—a
good handful, eff the top of the crock, and left
it at Dr. Wilcox, to get it examined. First : in
quest was held on the two hoys, nnd held
the two inquests on them. After tho death of
tho little girl, the Mayor told me to make a poll
mortem examination of the children, and in com
pany with Dr. Brooks and old Dr, M'Cook, dis
interred the bodies of the children; took tho
stomachs from tho children. Took them to Prof.
St Johns, at Hudson, who examined them.
At-TETIXOOS SESSION.
Tho Court met at half past one o’clock. .
: James Gallagher sworn —Lived up stairs in Mr.
Cuthbert’s house; ray family consisted of myself,
wife, and child; lived there at tho time of the
poisoning; left tho house in the month of May;
had no poison in my rooms; did not put any
thing in the tea-kettle; was not in the kitchen
on that day until after the poisoning; my wife
wasnotable to go dawn stairs, having been
sick. .
■ By a Juror— Did not see any powder but such
as was in the bands of persons about the bouse.
Can get easily from my apartments into the 01.1ey.,
.ley., .
Cross'examined- Hoard Mrs. Cuthbcrt say at
the inquest that she did hat know but that the
children had been poisoned by, a powder she
thought to bo saleratus, or washing soda, which
was in the ahSlf; had access to the yard and
hydrant which Mr. Cuthbertnsed. Did not hear
Mrs. Cntbbert say anything else; it was at the
first inquest.
Joseph Alls sworn —Know Coroner Arthurs:
ho bronght two papers, one' contained a white
substance and the other a darker one; do not
recollect wbat day it was; do not think it was
saleratus; it contained some Bellies and magnesia;
was not poisonous.
Br.. Wilcox sworn— Mr. Able handed mo two
papers, which he said Mr. Arthurs had left for
mo to examine; the contents of the large paper
was sugar; the smaller paper did not contain
any particles of poison; afterwards he took both
papers, marked, over to Geo. Arthur’s store,
and told him to givo them to tho Coroner, to
take to Cleveland, and have them examined with
the stomachs; tested thesabBtsnccs,sa as io.”snt
isfy himsolf there was no poison in them ; it was
before tbe Coroner’B inquest; arsenic is a min
eral poison.
Cross Examined—Did not annlizo the smaller
paper; thought it was dirt and magnesia; did
not think there was any poison; the powder I
sent to Mr. Arthurs was some I procured from
Dr.< Speer; think it was the same; was requested
to ascertain whether there was any poison in
the papers.
Examination Resumed—Do not think that the
article was soleratus.
Petty Ji. St, Johns, sworn —-I am Professor of
Chemistry, in Western-RcßOrve College, Hudson,
Ohio. On the lGth of April, Coroner Arthurs
brought me a box which contained three stom
achs; he stated to mo they were the stomachs of
three children; I labeled them as their deaths
had occurred; the youogcst boy hoßtated died
first; the oldest boy next, and tho little girl laat.
I opened each of the stomachs, in the order of
their deaths; the appearance of tho stomaohs
of tho two boys did not differ muoh; tho inner
ooats of the stomachs were. somewhat infiamed,
that of the seoond was more so; neither of them
were highly inflamed, however; the blood ves
sels were fuller than their natural : state; the
fir3t stomach contained a moderate quantity of
fluid or semi-fluid; there was no matter of n high
consistency; the second stomach contained a
larger amount of matter and more fluid; in the
third stomach, that of the little girl, thcro -was
more inflammation; tho inner coat of the stomaeh
was abraided; the quantity, of matter in the
stomach of the little one was slight, the smallest
of all; the contents of each of tho stomachs
were filtered and kept separate from each other,
they became colorless, the solid matter -being
left in the filter. Had been led to snspeet from
tho symptoms mentioned by Coroner Arthurs
that arsenic was the offending body, I proceeded
to apply the tOßts of arsenic; from the fivo tests
applied, there was indubitable evidence of the
presence of white arsenic.
[The Professor gave an account of the opera
tion of the fivo tests:] ■: '
It was found, on close examination, to ba the
common orsenious noid, or white arsenic, (or
common ratsbano;) whioh is kept in the shops;
tho quantity was so abundant in the stomachs, of
all bat the littlo girl, as to produce sevoral grains
of arsenic; ho found about 8 j grains—a quantity
sufficient to produce death; from the examina
tion of the stomachs, I am convinced that it was
white arsenic. I afterwards, for my own satis
faction, digested i.the stomachs, and found the
presence of arsenic in them. White arsenic
could be thrown off the stomach by vomiting, if
it would occur early.- The Coroner olbo brought
me sngor,' which I examined, and fonnd to con
tain no poison; I tested it.for several poisons;
the other paper contained a small quantity of a
heterogeneous mass,.containing hair, sand, dust,
and a considerable quantity of carbonate of pot-,
ash/and also traces of magaesia; there was a
larger amount of lime than there was of magne
sia, and more potash than either : of these arti
cles.
By Col. Blade—^ Tested these: papers for sev
eral poisons, but got no indication of tbs pres
ence of salts of lead, mercury, antimony, or ar
senic, or other deadly poison; if there was a
small quantity of arsenic taken, the. stomach
would revolt; if it was taken in solution, itwould
very readily produco vomiting. : [Tho Professor
describedtbe effeots of arsonio on the palate and
mouth.] . A person who . takes orsenio would
throw up, and also have a rednesß of the face.
By-Mr. Fctleman—lhe longer the period in
tervenes betweon its; introduction and its being
thrown off; the'more difficulty would be experi
enced in getting it away, as it would be .carried
through the system. Do not think Cauley, If lie
had vomited two or three hours, would be able
to go abont nest day.
1 By Col. Black—H.C& personhad taken arsenic
sufficient to sicken, after supper, and if- within
on hour introduced water, it would probably re
sult iu the stomach being relieved, without diar;
rhcca, and in such-oases, other;causes of excite
-1 meat, might prevent prostration.

Dr. Qtarge M’Cook, sawn—Went to sen Mr.
Cuthbert’s children on the 6th of April last, at 4'
o’clock A,. M. He. told too ho thought they were
poisoned.. On -Fourth street, near Market,'we
were met by John Cauley, who requested us to
hurry, "When lentered- the chamber occupied'
by the family, I found the younger boy was dead;
there was but^little vomiting by the other boy,
While X was In the.chamberr he was purging very'
fast, and Involuntarily; he suffered but little
pain; a greater part of the time he appeared to
be dozing, but was aroused while suffering pain;
his pnlse was weak, feeble, easily preeeed, with
some - irregularity; there was a slightly hot or
moated appearance of the face. The boy after
wards died, and I believe he died from poison by
oraenia, ’. Was present at the post mortim exam
ination.- Seen-the staff -in. the cupboard—it
I, tasted like lime; do. not; think it was arsinio;
i what X got was in a calico rag; seen it taken off
the shelf.

. Dr. George M’Cook, senior, sworn —On the
Fourth of April lost, Mr. Cathbert and tho ppia
oner camo to my office in company. Mr. Cath
bert said his ohUdren were siok, and he wished
me to pay them ovisit. Feeling a disinclination
to go, I interrogated him as to the eondition of his
children—ho eaid they were vomiting. He said
they bad. .no vomiting staff: about their house.
I told him to go home, and give the children
; some coffee—which was a good purgative. Cau
ley tH'on said they were pbisbhod. I did not pay
any attention to what he eaid,as Xinferredhimto
bo drunk, i told Mr. Cathbert lo go homo imme
diately, and if the vomiting wotdd not cease to
comeback in an hour and I would go with him. ■
l est in my office an hour and a half and he did
not return. At nbout threointhe morning, he
came to my office, and told me tho children were
no better, and be wished mo to go and see them.
I told him I.eonld not go, as I had nn important
operation to perform in the morning—one of the
most capitaloporations ever performed on the hu
man body. In the morning I went down, one
of the children was dead, and the other in tbe
jaw.s of death. ■ I prescribed tho usual pre
ventive, on going I asked:: whether theyhad
any areonic—they said they had none. They
said something hod got into the sugar. They
prooured some of tho article, I put it to o test*
and was convinced it was not areenio—on being
thrown it into the fire it did not produce the ;
garlic smell, or. bine blaze ofarsenio when
thrown into fire. I was present at the post mor
tem examination, and handed tho bowels over to
Coroner Arthurs. Ido not recollect who, gave
me the stuff, [Dr. M’Cook gave an account of
the post mortem examination, and stated that all
the symptoms indicated death by arsenic.]
; Bg Col. Mack—l am certain that I did not go
to bed that night, until 10J o’clock; it was 8.1
o’clock when Mr. Cathbert came to my house";
Cathbert did not contradict Cauley when be said
.tie children were poisoned; Cauley , said he had
taken a eup of tho tea; I told Cuthbert to return
immediately, if tho children were not better; I
spoke in my usual tone of voico. Cauley, when
he came a . second time, ; broke a window, which
made mo confident he was drank.
By Mr, Aldcn —l recommended Coroner Ar
thurs to take tbe stomach to Prof. St. John; l
do not think there is a man in this city who
could analyse the stomach properly.
Mrs. Gallagher sworn —Am the wife of James
Qollagber, and lived in tbo house with Mr. Cath
bert on the 4th of April lost; was not down stairs
in tho kitchen, norat the hydrant, that day;bad
no poison about my room.
John B. Guthrie twotn —Conducted tho exam
ination of John Cauley. Tho Mayor stated that
he took down tho examination of Cauley on the
10th of April, and' that was it which ho held in
his hand. The examination was read in Court;
Canley stated he was a laborer, 20 years of age,
and came to this country io August last. Ho
stated that when be was in tlie kitchen he took
off the tea kettle, which was boiling over.
' Doctor Speer worn —Was at Mrs. Cuthbort’s
on the fifth day after they were poisoned; procu
red some of the stuff lying nn the table, to exam
ine for my own satisfaction; I gave Mr. Wilcox
tbe same powder I took off the shelf, to send to
Prof; St. John; did not examino tho sugar. The
crock was too tall to stand on the shelf below
tho powder, but it would stand on tbe same shelf
with the powder.
Coroner Arthurs Was called ogain. Jho low
er ehclf is two feet six inches from the floor; the
next shelf is ininchesabovetlio lower shelf; the
next shelf is 10 inches; this is the ono tho pow
der stood on; the cupboard is put up loosely, and
the shelf thepowder was onis an inch ami a half
higher at one end than tbe "other. There were
cracks on all the shelves, one on the shelf the
crock stood on was about six inches from tho
wall. The powder was on the front port of the
shelf Tbe crock was 14! inches high. Mr.
Arthurs, my brother, gave me some powder to
take to Prof. St. John. ...
By Col, Black—the middle shelf has a very
large crook; it was kept on the middle shelf;
and was on that shelf when I went down; There
was considerable talk about tho matter at the
inquest. Various charges were made; against
persona. The supposition was that tho powder
was poison, and it bad fallen through. There
was an adjoining gate to the alley, io which the
hydrant was. There was no difficulty in getting
into that yard from the alley. Tbo fenco around
the yard is rather high.
1 Mary Clancy sworn—Am wife to Michael Clan
cy. On Monday morning, 6th of April, between
G and? o’clock, John Cauley caroo into my bed
1 room. We were both in bed. Tho first remark
ho passed, after ho sat down,was that Calhbert’s
family were ell poisoned, 1 asked bow it hap
pened. He told me he thought it was either in
their tea or sugar. He said he bad been setting
at the etove, and tbe tea-kettle boiled over,
then ho colled for Mr. Cuthbert; with that
ho wont up to his own room. Directly he
heard Mrs, Cuthbert say. they were all poisoned.
110 went down Btairs and tasted the tea, and af
ter while he begin to grow Weak. He went up
stairs and asked his wife to bring bim some
water. He said he drank two buckets full of
water and vomited four. He felt fatigued.—
When ho was done vomiting he camo down stairs
to help them. [The witness then detailed the
manner of things at the house when she was
there.] •..

Canley in the old country; last winter I was

bis wife's fortuho. James; Cuthbert had - $160;
to $l7O in his possession belonging to her, and
when Cntbbert beard he had sent money home,
be said he hod os good aright to it as his father;
in Ireland; Caaley eaid if ho did not get it be
fore many Sunday nights, he would take Cuth
bert’s life or his wife. I told him to take care
what ho said, or he might get himself into some
trouble. ; ; Oa the 6th of April, about 7 A. M., ho
came to the ebop and eaid he hod bad nows to
tell me, that they were all nearly dead at Cuth
berts’ the previous night, lie said they had not
been long attlie Bupperwhen they began to get
eiok—[The witness horestated the incidents that
tbe prisoner -had: related to him; os happening
at Cuthbert’s honße.]
. Cross-examined—the first conversation was
about two months boforo the poisoning.
William Mahoney worn—l was at Cathbert's
house the 'morning of the poisoning; at night,
Michael Clancy, John Cauley and myself in the
kitshenrX asked. Cauley how the acoident hap
pened; he said from the stuff in the sugar; ho
said if they had not found that powder his soul 1
would have boon in hell, for he would have cut j
his threat with his own razor; I asked him what
would induce him to do that; he said he had the i
misfortune to lift tho kettle off the stove; I told !
him that that was foolishness; ho said he did’nt i
care; at that time Canley’s wife oame out; she I
did not say any thing.
JCross-JStammed by Col. Black— Cauley told
me that it was from the powder that had got
into the sugar'that the acoident resulted.
Mr.'-Arthurs was recalled,— The yellow paper
was handed over to mo by some person, I know
not who it was.
Dr. M’Cook, Jr., recalled —A person taking a
small.quantity of tea. with arsenio in it, would
bo affected at -first, with nausea and vomiting,
and followed by diarrhoea. Think that great
vomiting from taking arsenio, would proßtrata
the system ; the heavier the dose tbe greater the
prostration of the: nervouB 1 system; I would
think the prostration of the .system would be in
oonßequenco of- such vomiting, as John Cauley
is represented as having. -
By Col. JHaefe—lf a person would, take a suf
ficient-quantity to torn his stomach, and had
drank water afterwards, he would be safer than
if the orsenic lay in his stomach.
Dr. M’Cook, sr., recalled—lt a person took
arsenio and vomited ■violently, it would produce
a prostration Borne time. .
Mr. Cathbert was again called, and he testified,
that he did not call his wife certain opprobriouß
epithets, which had been charged to her. Mrs.
Cuthbert corroborated her husband’s ovidenoe.

FUNERAL OF HENRY CLAY.
Washington, July 1.
The funeral of Henry Clay took place to-day,
A gloom overhung the city. Many houßea r in
cluding the publio buildings, were festooned with
badges ofmourning. The bells vrere tolled, the
flags were at half mast, and minute guns were
fired at 12 o’clock. The procession moved from
the National Hotel. It was headed by the mili
tary companies; then came the marine baud,
followed by the committee of arrangements.—
The funeral car was a moßt beautiful work of
art; tho oar was drawn by six. white horses,
each attended by grooms clothed in white; the
Senators and Members oftho House followed,
attended by their officers. Gen. Scott and the
officers of the Army and Navy were intho line
in fall uniform. Next came the Mayor and the
City-Conncila of Baltimore and twenty-fonr citi
zens who were appointed by tho town meeting,
and the Mayors and City Councils of Washing
ton, Alexandria and Georgetown.
At 20 minutes past twolvo the President and
members of the Cabinet entered the Senate
chamber. . A large number of the Diplomatic
Corps were also in attendance. A few minutes
after the procession arrived and entered the
ohamber, preceded by tho Senate and Committee
of Arrangements, and the Committee to escort
the corpse to Kentaoky. The corpse was en
cased in a patent metallic coffin, Bhrouded in
crape: the coffin had silver handles and mount
ings, aremarkablo silver.plate. • Over the face
upon the coffin was a massive silver plate bear
ing the simple inscription of “Heshy Clay.”
The utmost silenco prevailed. The procession
having entered the chamber and all being in tho
places assigned them, the Rev. C. M. Butler,
Chaplain to the Senate, read the luth Chapter of
Ist Epistle to tho Corinthians, commencing at
tho 31st verse. This being concluded ho deliv
ered an appropriate sermon. After tho funeral
services were concluded, with the prayers pre
sented by tho service, the silver plate, covering
tho face of the corpse, was removed and all
present drew near, and nmid the mast Impres
sive silence took a last view of tho features of
tito great and illustrious dead. This over the
corpse woe removed to the Rotunda nnd tho
Senate adjourned. The capacious rotunda was
altogether insufficient to contain the vast multi
tude, and tho portico and public grounds'were
occupied by those anxious to get in and have n
last opportunity to see all that remains of Henry
Clay. The U. S. Marshal and his aids were
present and after considerable confusion and
much trouble, induced tho crowd to approach
the coffin and file off in order. After having
been exposed to the publio for some time the
corpse was placed In the cars, awaiting for the
pujpose, and conveyed to Baltimore.
BaXTIHOBE, July}.
At four o’clock tho telegraph announced that
a special train had left Washington with the re
mains of Mr. Clay, his relatives, and the various
Committees. Tho firing of minate guns was
then commenced, which was tho signal for the
closing of stores and the suspension of all busi
ness. Baltimore street presented ono grand but
solemn aspect. Every house was decked with
emblems of mourning, and the streets were
lined with flags, festooned with erapo. The cars
arrived at six o'clock, but it was fall seven be
fore the procession passed along the entire city.
The sarcophagus was placed on tho top of a
magnificent funeral car, drawn by four blaok
horses. A splendid wreath of flowers, thrown
by a lady was laid upon the lop. The military
portion of tho. cortege was very fine, and the
civic large, considering the muddy condition or
tbo streets. .
The funeral car reached tho Exchange at half
past seven, where the remains were placed opan
a magnificent cenotaph, erected in tbo centre of
the rotunda and craped on Ml sides. Thousands
are crowding around tho Exchange, hoping to
gain n view of tho remains. The procession re
mains as a Guard of Honor until ten o’clock to
morrow morning, when tho corpse and its escort
wilt start In a special train for Philadelphia.
