Cheater , Esq ., who had Tacated his set by accepting a ^ teirardship of the Chiltern Hundreds . Mr . Hume moved an address to her Majesty , to be graciously pleased to recommend to the trustees of the British Museum , and to the trustees of Uie National
Gallery , that those places "be opened for the admission of the public on Su . vdats , after Divine service , at such hours as the houses of licensed victuallers , of sellers of beer , and of gin-shops , are now legally open to the public " Mr- Hamilton seconded the motion . After some discussion , it was negalived on a dmsion , the numbers being—Ayes i 4 Koes sjj Majority against it —38
Mr . Gillon then moved an address to her Majesty , praying that her Majesty may be graciously pleased to appoint a commission for the purpose of visiting every parish in Scotland , with directions to inquire into and report as to the means of education enjoyed within the same , including parochial and all other schools , and how far these means are available for the proper education of the juvenile population of each parish ; the number of youths of both sexes receiving , and the number destitute of public instruction ; with remarks on the quality and amount of the instruction conveyed ; but the motion was eventually postponed .
Mz . GiUon next moved an humble address to her Majesty , to represent that , while considerable sums are voted for the higher branches of education , in the benefits of which the higher and a portion of the middle classes participate , her Majesty will be pleased to take into coiwideraftiBn the great benefit that would result to the working classes if some assistance , such as her MajesrymigBt deem best , were affordedinpopulous towns t * wards the rapport of museums of natural history and works of art , and towards the maintenance of schools of art , in-such manner as would aid the efforts of the commnjiityin . tbejproseeution of thoseobjectd ; and to assure her Majesty that thia Huuse will make provision for such assistance as her Majesty may be graciously pleased to direct .

Lkkds Radical TJnivkb&al Suffrage Association . —At the usual meeting of this Association , held in their New Boom , on Monday evening last , after the enrollment of a . great many new members * resolutions were passed with respect to honouring the patriots of our cause , who will soon be liberated from their dungeons , and arrangements are making accordingly . A great many more are coming forward to join the Association on Monday evening next , when every true and honest Radical in Leeds 18 requested to come and join in . the great cause . The -LeedB Association was never known to be in such a ftonrishing state as at present , for new members are coming forward from all quarters ; Branch Associations have been formed in the villages near
Leeds , which are prospering * great deal better than was expected . Forward , forward ! ye men at Leeds ! we call upon yon to come forward and join us in the great and glorious struggle for universal liberty , for with union we conquer , without union we falL The following is the plan and resolution referred to in our last number , which is to be laid before the delegates assembled in Manchester , on Monday next ;— - ** That it is the opinion of this meeting that some more definite plan should be laid down for the better distribution of monies received for the familks of ibe incarcerated QiartUtil throughout the united kingdom . No feasible plan having in our opinion been brought forward , we do hereby lay down a plan which we think , if acted upon , will be
very efficient . Let a Committee of eleven be elected out of the Leeds Union , or some other Central Union , to be called The Central Committee for the Relief of all Incarcerated Chartists , ' the Committee to sit at such times as may be agreed upon by themselves , who will elect from among themselves a Secretary , Treasurer , & . c . Let all monies collected for the incarcerated Chartists be sent to the Editor of the Northern Star , and there inserted as having been received by him , and likewise let the parties sending the money to the Editor , send a letter to the Secretary of toe Central Committee , stating the amount aest to the Editor , so that the Committee may apply fox the money as Boon as possible . All letters to be
addressed to the Secretary of the Committee , of whose election notice should be given in the Northern Star . Let all persons who are desirous of getting relief , ( to prevent any fraud ) make their case known to the Secretary of the Association , in whatever town they live ; the ^ Secretary then to make enquiries if they are fit objects , and also enquire into their present means of getting a livelihood , as some persons will have better mean than others , and therefore will not require the same support . The Secretary then to bring the case or cases before the weekly meeting of tneir own body , and then state the success of his enquiries , and if a majority at the meeting think thasie , she , or they be fit and proper persons to receive relief , the Secretary then to write to the Central Committee , giving all particulars of their

circnmBtances , and the parties' address when » rrangeBMnts should be made accordingly . At places where there are not Associations at present , the P *™ * thai want relief , let them write to the Central Committee themselves , giving all the information as mentioned above , also giving the address of some person who can be referred to for th » truth Of their statements . In cases where a Secretary , or the wife of any imprisoned Chartist , is applying for relief , he and she should state the length of time that an SaEMftSsSSJEE
allowance will be needful , bo as to send as much money at once as can be spared , to save expenses of postage , &c . Let the Committee publish a monthly statement of their proceedings , giving an account of what money they nave received , and what spent ; likewise the balance they have in hand . " This plan we recommend to the serious consideration of the Manchester delegates , and if approved of , they are earnestly requested to appoint eome town for carrying of it out .

E $ q ., and about twenty ojhtr magistrates were present . The buei * ness was very unimportant . It was expected that there would have been some discussion relative to the previous treatmen t of Mr . O'Connor , but although allnsion was made to the circumstance in the report of the Visiting Jus-icee , and although the correspondence with the Home Secretary was laid on tbe table , not a siDgle observation was made relative to the subject by any magistrate present .
The Business at the Assizra . —There remains above thirty prisoners yet to try at these Assizes , and the whole of the causes from the West Riding , except those which were undefended . It is therefore , highly probable that the Assizes will continue until the latter end of nexs week . Musical Treat . —On Friday and Saturday evenings , the lovers of music , recitations , songs , & . c , had a grand treat at the house of Mr . Christopher Petler , the Concert Inn , bottom of TrafaJgar-Btreet , in this town . Mr . Bnlliyante , the celebrated ventriloquist , was the principal star on the occasion , assisted by Mr . Slinn , from Shefiield , and several other amateurs from the neighbouring towns . Mr . J . Turtou presided at the piano-forte .
Mb . Stephens . —We are sorry to learn that this gentleman is not so well off in Chester Castle as we have been informed . We have seen a letter from Mr . Timothy Higgins , a fallow prisoner with Mr . Stephens , to a private friend of his , in Iwhich he eays—I understand it has been reported , that Mr . Stephens has the use of private apartments , and pleasure grounds to walk in , with the constant society of his family and visitors every day . Mr . Stephens has a cell for himself , the same as I have , in the Bame ward ; and he is accommodated , too , with an iron bedstead and a straw bed , of which I never heard him complain . There iB % cell originally intended for the condemned or solitary prisoners , and this is allowed for a public viaiting room , in which Chartists and others see their friends when it is unoccupied . Then Mr . Stephens has the use of
it to write m or eat Mb meat . When first Mr . Stephens came in , all the Chartists here saw him eat his skilly with all imaginable contentment ; and as for pleasure grounds , why , the idea makes me laugh . Our pleasure ground is the common yard , and he has no » thcr ; and as for lots of visitors everv Friday , it is all humbug ; none are allowed but our own friends and families once a week , other friends can only be admitted the second Friday in every month . ISO point has been stretched , no rule violated in favour of Mr . S . I assure you , M'Duuall enjoys all and every privilege that Mr . S . does . All remains the same now as before the last assizes , although eight more are added to our number . We have little indeed to complain of except the dietary , which is both scarce and coarse , and Mr . S . enjoys nothing but what the rules allow to all as well ae him .
BVDDEBSFZELD . Boabd Room . —Mr . Pitkethly called the attention of the Board to the case of John Greatley , who had been committed & month back to the House of Correction for twenty-one days , upon the evidence of Dean , the keeper of the Almondbury workhonse Mr . Pitkethly said that Greatley ' a mother had called on him that morning , and that she was almost broken-hearted . She had no means whatever to support her son , who was very ill ; and who , rather than go back to the workhouse , where the silent system was in operation , and where every thing was worse than in the House of Correction , would rather go again to Wakefield , or die where
he was of starvation . She begged aud prayed that he ( Mr . Pitkethly ) would get some arrangements made to savs him from starvation . Washington said he was not previously informed that this manhad returned ; he had , however , just promised the mother , who was outside , to visit her son on Monday . He was ordered to visit and relieve him that day . The accounts of the Huddersfield workhouse were carefully divided to the time of the present everseen coming into office . Amongst the accounts were some that the Bastile Guardian had promised to pay , if the overseers would deliver up the workhouse , which they did . Still he would not pass some of their accounts , viz . £ 14 lfls . 3 d ., quarter salary for Mr . Brunton ; £ 1 2 s . for Mary Brook ' s
wages ; jEI 18 a . 6 d . for seeds , lents , aud vats , and . £ 1 Is . for the sexton , for grave digging ; 13 s . 6 d . for vicar dues , for funerals . The overseers declare they will sue the Chairman of the Board . The Rev . Chairman brought forward his promised motion for chaplains to be appointed to the several workhouses with a salary . He seemed to forget that all hi 3 Whig supporters were Bastilers and Dissenters ; but they soon showed him that , if they had the power , the Church would have to come down in the same way as the workhouses . The parson was evidently nettled , and Baid they had taken great pains with the temporal interests of the paupers ; but now that their spiritual interests were to be cared for , they set their faces against it . He then left the chair iu dudgeon , and the meeting broke up .
The Lawyer at a Discocjfr , —On Tuesday last , the bailiffs of the honourable court arrested one oi the limbs of the law in the public streets for a debt to a knight of the rszor and brush , for 27 e . and costs . He was taken to durance vilft .

rSAMFAX . Swindling . —The other day , a fashionable couple called at the stablea of Mr . Lynch , in this town , and engaged a horse and gig , for the purpose of making a short journey into the country . The gentleman" has since been detected offering the whole for sale at Blackburn , in Lancashire . H « asked £ 30 , and afterwards came down to £ 15 , which caused suspicion , and he was taken in custody . Information having been received of the circumstance , Mr . Lynch has left Halifax to claim the property . The gig , horse , &c , it is said , was worth £ vlf *
G . Wadswokth , Lbtteb Cariuer . —This young man was brought up before the sitting magistrates , at Ward's End , in this town , on Friday last , to be examined for a fraud committed on the Post Office , he having detained a certain number of letters in violation of the law . A Post Office agent from Sheffield superintended the examination . Mr . Alexander was engaged for the prosecution , and Mr . Wavel for the defence . After a lengthened inquiry -into the case , and the charge apparently made out against the prisoner , his attorney moved for an adjournment , pleading that in consequence of
the hearing having taken place sooner than was expected , he was not properly prepared to enter on the defence ; as he should be able to prove that a number of the letters found in the possession of the prisoner had been offered to persons of the same name as addressed , but was not owned at the time , and that would account for them being iu his possession . The matter was allowed to stand over to the following day ( Saturday ) , when the parties again appeared . The examination terminated in the young man being committed to York to take his trial for the offence .
New Pellon . —The Radicals of this place , near Halifax , had two sermons preached , on Sunday last , in their Sabbath-day Sohool-room , for the benefit of the incarcerated Chartists , whose families are now suffering on account of what are called the political offences of their husbands and fathers ; and , being desirous of rendering a little assistance to them in their affliction , a collection was made on their behalf , amounting to £ 1 la . 8 id .
MIDDLETON . Coroner ' s Inquest . —On Thursday , the 9 th inst ., a coroner ' s inquest took place , on a child that was killed by Wolsencrofi ' s c » rt , and a verdict of " Accidental Death" was returned . Emigration . —The overseers of Middleton have received placarde from an Emigration Company in Manchester , calling on married men and their wives , aud young and unmarried women , to emigrate , and states that they will be taken free . A small charge will be made for unmarried men and children . Is not this wishing the overseers of towns , villages , and hamlets , to transport little children paupers , and all young and unmarried women to New South Wales !

Church Rate . —At a . numerous meeting held in in the parish church , called by the Churchwarden for the purpose of laying a Church Rate for the ensuing year , it was moved by Thomas Holden , seconded by Charles Butterwortb , That a rate of a halfpenny in the pound be collected as a Church Rate , " which , it was calculated , would realize a sum of £ 500 . Mr . James Littlewood made an amendment , "That there should be no rate , " which was
seconded by Mr . John Petrie ; a show of hands having been called for , the Reverend vicar , declared in favour of the rate , although an impartial judge would have said the " no-rates" had the shew of hands by three to one ; however , a poll was demanded by J . Littlewood , which was allowed by the Vicar . The polling has been carried on with great spirit by both parties up to this time , ( Wednesday , five o ' clock ); nearly 4 , 000 votes have been registered , and the " non-raters" have a majority of 546 votes .

AU 8 TERX 1 ANDB . Congratulation to her Majesty . —I have been authorised by a few friends from the parish of Saddleworth to desire that you will just inform the public in your next paper , that the Whigs of Saddleworth have had a meeting for the purpose of congratulating her Majesty and . Prince Albert on their providential escape from assassination , and at the same time these sapient beings are making up their windows , in order to avoid paying the window tax . This we think ia » piece of Inconsistency . —Correspondent .
MUkCCLESFXElD . Meeting of Silk Weavers . —On Monday evening last , a very numerous meeting of this body was held in Mr . Brodhorst ' s twisting-shed , near the Old Derby Arms , Derby-street , to consider the best means of securing an uniformity of prices m the silk-weaving trade . Mr . Foster was called to the chair , and opened the business of the meeting by giving a detailed account of what the masters had said respecting their disposition to pay the list prices . They , with very few exceptions , had promised to pay the price for everything they manufactured The Messrs . Wardles declared their willingness to pay the price for everything they make . in the town but in consequence of the Maccleefield weavers demanding too high a price they were compelled to send enormous quantities of work into the oountrv
wuere they bad no less than three establishments The Messrs . Powells declined holding any conference with the delegates who waited upon them * but with this solitary exception , they , ( the dele- ' gates ) , met with the greatest civility from the masters some of them declaring that the late reduction of one farthing per yard upon peraianfl had been the cause of a reduction in the market of one halfpenny per yard , thus proving that reductions are alike injurious to master and man . Messrs .. West , JonoB Lynch , Bredbury , and others addressed the meeting at considerable length , in defence of the prices that have been paid to a comparatively recent period , and condemnatory of the conduct of those masters who are incessantly endeavouring to cut another slice from the impoverished operatives' already too diminutive loaf .

TO THB EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN STAR . Sir , —I trust you will excuse me again troubling you , for were I to remain silent . under the accusation brought against me ( and inserted inyour'B of last week , ) by the Caged Lion of York Castle , it might be supposed there was some truth in it—I allude to that portion of Mr . O'Connor ' s rigmarole , where he states that " at the breaking up of the Convention , those fellows , with Whittle , the Cobbetts , and the retten end of the country party , entered into a conspiracy to destroy the Star-Burns was one of thenu" Now , a more malignant , base , and unqualified lie was never uttered or written by nan . I defy him to prove his assertion .
I never at any time , with any person , or under any circumstances , entered into each a conspiracy , and were I not well aware of the object sought to be gained by the publication of the falsehood , ( knowing it to be such , ) I should have supposed it rather too much for the "Caged Lion" t » have uttered , although I well know he does not stand at trifles , where he imagines tug interest is concerned . Now , Sir , to make this communication short , I will hazard a conjecture or two : — Frist' , that so long as Feargus O'Connor connects himself with any agitation , the object of which is to benefit the masses , that benejit will never be enjoyed , and that he does not wish they should enjoy it . I will endeavour to show this in a few letters addressed to Mr . O'Connor , and which I will send to you for insertion in the Star , expecting , as a matter x > f courtesy , not to say of justice , you will allow tbeir publication therein .
You muBtbe aware that tho contents of such letters will not be very toothsome ; but if they shall in any way contribute to wholesome reflection among the masses- ^ the fustian jackets—the unshorn chins , my object will be gained— " Othello ' s occupation's gone . " In your paper of the 4 th , a Scotch feelosofer , signing himself " Scotus , " ( Scoutus would have been much more appropriate ) , attempts at argument in opposition to my plan of a People ' s Press , but as it is evidont that he is ignorant of that plan ( willingly so , I have no doubt ) a reply is almost unnecessary ; as , however , he apes at wit , or humour , or something of the kind , the followanswer may suffice : —It is not a joint-stock concern , and
was never published as such ; after no little nilsrepreseniation , he at last comes to my object in proposing it . Hear the numskulL It would only be paying money out of the right hand to be received by the left—minus the loss of the paper . Does he suppose the paper will cost nothing ? Does ha get one at present for nothing ? and if the payment of flvepence out of tbe right baud , shall give to him a paper and a re turn of twopence in tbe left hand , to be devoted to the purposes set forth in the address , would not hewould not the country be benefited by the adoption of the plan . None so blind as thore that will not see . W . G . Buens . Hull , July 12 th , 1840 .
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Sir , —In the letter of Mr . L . Pitkethly , upon the subject of the action brought by me against Unwin and others , in your paper of the 11 th instant , there is an error . Mr . Pitkethly says , — "And what did this just-ass carry off ? not physical-force weapons ; no 1 but a lease , " &c Mr . Unwin did not carry off the lease which he found among my papers and other documents . He seized it ; but 1 snatched it out of his hand again , and thereby saved a document in which the interest of other persons is more atstalre than my own . lie also seized my pocket-book , containing a few aoveteiguB , &c , aud that I saved , by another snatch , my only resource under the circumstances .
I thank you for tho insertion of Mr . Pitkethly ' s letter above alluded to , and that gentleman for his ( I must be permitted to say ) over-rated , and but illmerited complimentary sentiments towards me ; and begging the favour of your insertion of this letter in your next Star , beg to subscribe myBelf , Sir . Your most obedient servant , Joseph Brotan . PiS . Since the publication of the notice copied in your last paper , it had beeu ascertained that the trial will agaiu take place iu Nottingham at the approaching assizes .

Latest prom the United States . —The Great Western eteam-ahip , Lieut . James Hosken , R . N ., arrived at King-road , at seven o ' clock on Wednesday morning , after a passage uf thirteen and a half days , bringing 15 ' 2 passengers , and papers and letters from New York to the 1 st instant inclusive , and from other parts of North America and the Cau&das to corresponding dates . From the correspondonco between Mr . Fox and Mr . Forsyth , published in the Washington Globe of the 30 th nit ., relative to the
North-Kastern Boundary dispute , it appears that arrangements have been made for a joint commission , with full powers finally to arrange the several mattere in dispute . Monetary and commercial matters in New York wore an unfavourable aspect . Tho now Bankruptcy law had passed the Seuate , but , by the discussions in the papers , it appears that this measure , as well as the Sub-Treasury Bill , is made a party question , so that it is very doubtful whether it will ever become law . In Mexioa and Texas the same state of turmoil continued .

DEATH BY FIGHTING , AT WILMSLOW , IN CHESHIRE . —CORONER'S INQUEST , AND VERDICTS OF MANSLAUGHTER AGUNST THE PRINCIPAL AND THREE OTHERS AS AIDERS AND ABETTORS . One of those disgraceful exhibitions , called prize fights , or pitched battles , took pl&ce at Wilmslow , about seven miles from Stockport , on Tuesday , the 7 th instant , which has terminated in the death of one of the combatants , & respectable young man , well connected , leaving a wife * and three children to lament his untimely end . It appeared that for some time ill-blood had existed between a shopkeeper of WiUuslow , named Isaac Henry Cutts , and another inhabitant of the same place , Robert Middleton . On the Monday , they met accidentally at Mrs . Wilkinson ' s public-Louse , whew a friendly society were celebrating their annual day , and here they resumed their animositks , which resulted in a mutual desire to conclude by a fistht , but one or both
of them being members of the order assembled at the U 0 U 86 , some Of the brethren interfered , and dissuaded them from their purpose , in order that the day might pass over as harmoniously as possible . The contest was therefore postponed till the following day , on Lindon Common , where a crowd assembled , and the combatants , attended by their respective backers , made their appearance , James Burgess being Cutts ' s backer , and Robert Middleton being accompanied by his brother Peter . John Davenport formed and preserved a ring , with the assistance of a large stick . The party having '' peeled , " they went to woik , and fought for upwards of an hour and a half , when , at the end of the sixty . first round , Cutts fell to the ground in a state of exhaustion , and ultima ^ insensibility ; and he was carried home Boon after one o ' clock in the afternoon . Surgical attendance was called in ; but concussion of tbe brain having succeeded , he died at three o ' clock on the following morning .
An inquest was held on the body of the unfortunate young man , on Thursday , before John Hollins , Esq ., coroner , and a respectable Jury , when Thomas Haumett , having been sworn , stated that he was a labourer at Chorley ; and being at Martha Wilkinson ' s public-house , on Monday night , the 6 th , he saw the deceased and Robt Middleton in one of the rooms together ; and heard deceased say to the other , " come to my house in the morning , and I will pay you the money , and then we will fight" Middleton answered , " I will . "' The next morning witness heard that they were going to fight , as had been previously arranged , on Lindon Common ; and he accordingly
repaired thither about eleven o'clock , where he saw the deceased and Middleton . Mr . Grntrix , an attorney , was thore also advising them not to fight , bat to shake hands . They did eo ; but only as a prelude to a battle ; for they immediately stripped and pulled off their shirts . There were many persons present ; and a ring was made to fight in . Jamas Burgess , of BoUin Lee , was deceased ' s backer ; and Peter Middletoa , backed bis brother , Robert Middleton . Theyfoaght sixty-one turns , the fighting having continued an hour and a half ; in the last tarn the deceased was knocked down , and bo muck hurt as to be unable to riae again ; he was then carried home .
Wm . DawsonGratrix , of Wilmslow , gentleman , aftid—Hearing on Tuesday morning that the deceased and Robert Middleton were going to fight at lindon Common , ha went there , and found them together apparently entering upon tha contest Ho endeavoured to prevail upon them otherwise , and to shake hand * , which they did ; but instead of desisting from the eontest , they pulled off their clothes ; and a ring was formed , which Jobn Davenport kept open with a stick , in order that there might be no pressure from , outside upon the men . James Burgess was the backer for the decowsed ; and Peter Middleton for his brother . After the fighting had continued some time , "witness went up to the deceased and attempted to prevail upon him to . give over ; bat deceased answered , "no , t will be carried off first . " The fight was then resumed , and observing the men resting upon the knee of their respective seconds , or backers , he went to them , and desired them to put an end to it , to which they did net

«make any . reply . Middleton ' s backers however said , no , " and ^ wore they should fight it oat , Witae * walked a little distance off . and remained there till the battlo was over . At the end of the last round b * saw the deceased down , at which time witness vent home . Thos . Moore , of Wilmslow , surgeon , atatcd that about nine o clock on Tuesday morning , he saw the deceased m company with James Burgess , and he aaid " Doctor , I am going to fight Bob Middleton . " ! ' Witness replied ^ " Henry , leave well alone , youar ^ wt at to fight" In an hour afterwards , hearing that they w « e gone to fight , he followed , and saw them fight fifty rounds , throughout which the deceased wasluadoubtedly the weaker man . and the witness therefore interfered to prevent the deceased continuing the contest ; bat he refused to listen to his advice , shortly afterwords he saw tho deceased upon the back of Samuel Roylands ; and ultimately witness ordered tha - *•> - * . — ¦— * w- *
deceased to be taken to bis own house , as he was in a state of exhaustion , or collapse . After applying various remedies , witness was sent for back to the deceased ' s house , whom be found , at length , labouring under concussion of the brain . Compression subsequently took place to a dangerous extent , and between two and three o ' clock the following morning , witness was hastily called up , and on proceeding to the house of the deceased , found him dead . On a post trurtem examination taking place , on the morning of the inquest , ( tha 9 th , ) the . witness found , on removing the scalp , tha appearances usual in cases of concussion of the brain , by fcxtravasation , coagulation , &c , in the vessels of the head . All the other organs were perfectly sound . Deceased never spoke from the time the witness saw him up to the period of his death . The witness stated that the above injuries were occasioned by the fight with Mideleton , and t&at they -were the cause of death .
ThiBbeing all the evidence offered , the Jury , after tbe Coroner ' s recapitulation and address , retired to consider their decision , when they returned a verdict of " Manslaughter" against Robert Middleton , and also against James Burgess and Peter Middleton ( the backers ) , and John Davenport ( who also took an active part ) , as aiders and abettors in the same . Coroners warrants were then issued against them , and RsbJrt . Middleton and the backers have since been apprehended and fully committed to Chester Assizes for trial . Davenport has absconded .
ANOTHER DEATH BY FIGHTIKG . On the day preceding the holding of the above inquisition iWeduesd ^ y , the 8 th ) , the same Corouer hod been called upon to preside over another inquiry at the Windmill public-house , at Tabley , a few miles from Wilmalow , to ascertain the cause of the death of John Walton , a labourer in the employ of Lord de Tabley . It appeared that a day or two before , the deceased quarrelled in the hay field with another labourer named Joseph Hewitt , aud a fight took place , the deceased being so drunk at the time that he conld not stand steadily ; Hewitt was not sober , and appeared to have fought unfairly . However , on striking Walton again , he fell against the edging-stone of the footpath , and on lifting him up , blood issued forth from both his ear * He died in a day or two . The Jury returned a verdict of " Manslaughter" against Hewitt , and he was committed , on the Coroner ' s warrant , to Chester , to take his trial at the ensuing Assizes in August
