~ ? — . — MXTRDEB . BY A FEMALE , IN SALFORD . A shocking occurrence took place in Salford on Friday last , and one which created great excitement amongst the inhabitants living in the vicinity of the Town Hkll . It appears that early that morning , a man named Robert Travis , about 50 years of age , was slabbed by a female named Oliver , alias Morris , who iived at a house in Brunswick-street , near the Market-place , and with whom he cohabited . The wound was inflicted with a large sharp-pointed carving knife , which penetrated the left side of the abdomen j and , although medical assistance -was promptly procured , he died in the afternoon of the same day . Both he and the woman were intoxicated
at the time of the occurrence , and , according to her statement , they had been quarrelling , and he hid made an attenrfit to cut her throat , when she snatched the knife from him and stabbed him . The deceased , we understand , formerly kept the Black Boy public-house , in Old Millgate , in Manchester , and was possessed of some property . The woman , who is about the same age as the deceased , was taken into custody , to await , the result of the inquest , which w&b held before Mr . Rutter , at the Manor Tnri , Sslford , on Saturday evening . Mr . J . Taylor and Mr . Andrews , solicitors , attended on behalf of the prisoner , who was in custody at the Inn , though not iu the room where the inquest was held , and appeared greatly dwtresBed . The following evidence wasaddaced : —
Edwd . Hughes , police watchman , of Salford , said —About three o ' clock yesterday morning I met Jane Oliver , otherwise called Jane MorriB , the person now in custody , in Rosamond-street . I heard her screaming and knocking at the door of the Manor Inn ; and , on coming towards the place , I found her . I asked her the reason why she was making bo Each noise , and , why she was in so much trouble , as 1 perceived she was in trouble . She said she could not tell me , but if I would go with her to
her house she would show me . I went to her house , which is in Brnnswiek-street , and , the moment I went In ; I saw deceased lying in a back room on the ground fl « or , and apparently dead . No one else was there . He was lying close to the fender , with his face towards the fire . His trousers were unbuttoned , and his shirt a little oat ; and , on perceiving blood on his shirt , I asked her the cause of it- She said she did not know . I then lifted up his shirt and a flaoiiel w&istceat , and saw a large wound inflioted

on the left side of his belly , as if made with a knife . His entrails appeared to be coining through the wound , and I endeavoured to put them back as well as I could . I 4 hen asked Mrs . Morris what had been the matter , when she replied , I will tell you ; we had a row ; he was going to cut my throat , and I took a knife and stabbed him in the manner you cee . " H Awful , indeed , " I said ; " a doctor will be needed in a case of this kind immediately . Is there any one in the house that I can send for a doctor . " She answered , There is no one but he and I . ' ? I then said 1 would go and fetch a doctor . Travis then opened his eyea , and , looking at me , said , "No , watchman , I * m all right ; you need not fetch any doctor to me . I then
lifted him up , put him in a sitting position upon a chair , and then left the house , saying I would fetch & doctor . I . called atithe police office and informed Mr . Ward , the superintendent of polioe , who Trent with me to the house . Mr . Ward then said I mnst fetch a doctor , when . Mrs . Oliver requested me to fetch Mr . Brownbill , surgeon ; and Mr . Ward 6 aid I must also fetch Mr . Crightou . I weat to both , and both came immediately . I know Mrs . Oliver , and the deceased also : to my knowledge , they have both lived at the same house in Brunswick-street for some years . She has generally gone by the name of Mrs . Oliver , bat Is sometimes called Mrs . Morris . She seemed forward in liquor ; that is , she seemed as if she had had a good deal . The deceased also Beemed
as if he had had a good deal of liquor . I had not heard any noise before I heard the knocking at the door of the Manor Inn ; bat my round does not extend so far . —Cross-examined by : Mr . Taylor—The deceased appeared sensible at the time he spoke . # John Ward , superintendent of police , said , —A little after three yesterilay morning , the last witness came to me at the police office , and , , in consequence of what he said , I went with him immediately to the house where the deceased was . I found him seated is an arm chair . I asked him what was the matter , and he said " Nothing . " Mrs . Oliver was then standing in front of him , crying ; , I examined him , and saw his entrails protruding from hia belly to the extent of about an inch . I asked him who had
stabbed him , and he said he did not know . I then cautioned her aB to what she Baid , telling her it might be given iu evidence against her . I then asked her how it was done , when she clasped her hands and said , " I nave done it . ' * I asked her how it happened , to which Bhe replied , " We were falling out , and he got a knife to cut my throat , when I took it from him and stabbed him with it . " I then told her she must go with me . She said , " Robert , must he take me ? " He said , " No , no one shall take you , for there ' s nothing wrong with you . " There was a carving-knife marked with blood lying upon a table in the same room . I asked her if that was the knife the deceased bad been stabbed with , and she said she did not know . The surgeons then got the deceased
pnt to bed . Mrs . Oliver ' s clothes were loose , as if she had been preparing for bed . She went up stairs to adjust her dress to go with me ; and , to another woman , who was up stairs , she said , "Oh ! they'll hang me for this . " She appeared to be in great trouble and much agitated , and I took her to the lock np . She was much in liquor . The deceased died between two and three o ' clock yesterday afternoon . The last words he said were " Oh , my Jwmy 1 my Jenny ! my Jenny ' . " ilr . JoBeph Crighton , surgeon , of Salford , said—Between three and four o'clock sesterday morning , I attended the deceased , whom I found sitting in a chair in the back parlour , very pale , and apparently intoxicated . I was told he had received an injury ,
and upon examining him , I found there was a wound in the abdomen , on the left side , about three inohes from and a little higher than the navel , from whioh there protruded a membrane called the omen turn . There was a little hemorrhage , and no appearance of external Injury with the exception of the wound . He was put to bed , and the wound was dressed . Mr . Brownbill , Burgeon , was also called in at the request of Mrs . Oliver . I saw the deceased at half-~ p&st nine in the morning , when he expressed himself tolerably well . There was no appearance of immediate danger when I saw him in the morning , still , I considered it a dangerous case , and expressed myself so to the police . I made an inspection of the body to-day , and upon opening the abdomen there was found a quantity of coagulated blood ,
aid among the intestines a quantity of liquid blood to the amount of three or four pounds . There was no woand iD tho intestines . We also inspected the chest , and the organs contained therein were healthy . My opinion is , that he died from hemorrhage , owing to an incision in one of the vessels of the omontum . There was a wound in the abdomen of about three quarters of an inch in length , and the instrument with which it had been inflicted had penetrated to the intestines . The wound was snoh as might have been prodnoed by a knife like thai HOW produced . — Cross-examined by Mr . Andre we—I should say , that , under any circumstances , a wound such as the one I have now described would produce death , Mr . Travis expressed himself exceedingly anxious that Mrs . Oliver should be liberated .
Catherine Clark , of Water-street , Manchester , charwoman , was next called , and related what tho deceased said to her respecting the circumstances under which the wound was inflicted ; but the coroner said lie could not take it as evidence ; inasmuch as the deceased , at the time be made tho statement did not appear to have expected immediate death . The substance of Clack ' s statement was , tbat the deceased said it was entirely his owu doing ; that he went out on Thursday night and got some liquor , and came back with Mr . Allen ; tb « t after Mr . Allen had gone to bed , Mrs . Oliver and himself had a quarrel ; and that on his taking a knife and threatening to cat her ¦ head off , she snatched the knife from his hand and stabbed him with it . He also repeatedly said , he should boop get better if Jai ( meaning the prisoner ) was at home , and that she ( Clark ) was not to tell Mr . Diggles any thing he had said to her .
Tne Coroner , in Bamming up the evidence , eaid the only question for the jury to determine was , whether the prisoner was guilty of murder or manslaughter . According to her own statement , there was a considerable degree of provocation given by the deceased to heT . They were undoubtedly in liquor , and , according to her account , they had a row ; and probably those oircumstanoes would lead the jury to return a verdict of manslaughter . But he might mention tu them , that there had recently passed an act of parliament , which made cutting and stabbing with a knife a felony , although the party inflicting the wound might be in a considerable state of excitement at the time , and although death might sot ensue afterwardb . Now , before the passing of this act
of parliament , the prisoner could not have been convicted of felony , unless there was the intention to commit murder , and the offence would not have amounted to more than a common assault ; but , in consequence of the great nnrnber of cases of this kind that occurred , it was found necessary for the legislature to enaot some measure to put a stop to them ; and , therefore , they had declared that , if a person did commit some grievouB bodily harm , either with a knife or other instrument , no matter whether it were done in a moment of excitement or not , then he was liable to be transported as a felon . —A Juror
remarked that the wound in this case seemed to have been inflicted in self-defence . —Tho Coroner said , the prisoner ' s defence was perfect when she took the knife from the deceased , but she used it afterwards against himself . His ( the Coroner ' s ) opinion was , that the jury would be right in sending the prisoner for trial upon the higher charge—that of murder . It would be quite competent , supposing the Judge should see any thing in the circumstances to render it acase of manslaughter , to give directions to the Grand Jury to that effect ; and , for the Jury , although the prisoner was indicted for murder , to find a bill for manslaughter .
Mr . Taylor said , there was HO opportunity of getting bail for murder , which was an important consideration . As the Judges were now in Liverpool , bail might be got for manslaughter . The Coroner observed that that circumstance could not influence the Jury , who must give their verdict according to the evidence . The Jury then consulted for about a quarter of an hour , and retorned a verdict of " Wilful murder " against the prisoner ; whereupon the Coroner made out his warrant for her committal to Kirkdale , to take her trial at the next assizes .

A WOMAN KILLED BY HER HUSBAND ,-EXTRAORDINARY CASE AT CASTLE-¦ tfORTHWlCH . Very great excitement has prevailed during the past week at Castle-Northwicfi , in consequence of suspicious circumstances attending the death of Sarah Hough , wife of William Hough , captain 0 ' a fltt which plies to and from Liverpool . The poor woman died on Thursday , the 6 th infltant , and on the 8 th instant , an inquest was held before James Rosooe , Esq ., coroner for the Knatsford division , when a verdict of " Died by the visitation of God , from natural causes , " was returned . On the following day ( Sunday ) the corpse was baried at Wilton , when a scene of great disorder ensned ; the husband , who attended the funeral , jeing hooted and groaned at by the spectators as he left the church yard . After the intermentmany
, painful rumonra were freely oircnlated , and facts were elicited , whioh indnced an application to bo made to Henry Churton , Esq . to hold another inquest ; for it appears that Castle Northwich 18 not included in the Knntsford division , and therefore the investigation taken before Mr . Roseoe was irregular and illegal . Mr . Churtoa consequently gave instructions that the body should be exhumed ; and on Saturday last proceeded to hold his inquest The excitement in the neighbourhood was most intense . A most respectable jury bad been summoned for the occasion ] and among those who attended the proceedings , were G . Wilbraham , Esq ., J . F . France , iSfq G . Sbackerley , Esq ., and J . H . Harper , Eaq , magistrates of the county . Catharine Allcook , daughter of the deceased , with whom she resided , deposed thjjt the health of deceased had been very good during the last two ears j deceased was confined about seven months

ago , 1 she continued to suckle the ohttd till Sunday , the 2 nd instant , she was then in her usual health ; my 8 tep . father < Wm . Hough ) had been about several days ; he came home on that Sunday morning , about si * o ' clock ; he was somewhat in liquor ; in about , 1 a *? our ^ e 'e ^ the house , and returned at ten o'clock very much intoxicated ; he laid himself down on the sqnab , and shortly after had a quarrel with the deceased ; I and my sister were present when my step-father ' s son came in , who ccmplained of not having bad sufficient food ; my mother was preparing dinner , and had put on the fire two saucepans containing a dumpling and potatoes , which my stepfather removed off the fire , and placed at the back of the door , which he fastened ; he then clenohed
his fist , and asked my mother " where she would bavoitf" my ; mother was then sitting down , suckling the child ; she said " any where f he then struck her a heavy blow on the right breast , whioh scarred her breast and the child's face ; I took the child from my mother and carried it out of doors ; but before I did bo , deceased received another blow from him on her side , he having previously pushed her back on the sofa , and held her down with hia knees . Before this occurred , deceased and her husband lived happily together ; before my step-father struck dece » sed , 8 he took up the poker and said , " By G- , I am sworn to take care of my children ; deceased , after she had been beaten , went to James Marsh ' s ; her face was nearly covered with blood ; she bled very much from the nose ; Mrs . Marsh
washed her face ; deceased sent for the Hartford constable , and afterwards broke her own back door open ; myself , my sister , and deceased remained at home the whole of the afternoon ; deceased complained very much , and w&b unable to take any food till half-paBt four , when she had some tea and a slice of bread and butter ; about nine o ' clock she had a tea-cup full of stew j deceased did not go to bed , as she was afraid her husband weuld oome \ m and abase her ; David Marsh and my step-father came home at twelve o ' olock , both very drunk ; the the whole of us remained up all ui ^ ht ; Marsh went away at four on Monday morning , and Kitty Leather a neighbour who sat with us , at half-past five ; soon after mv steo-father awoke , and told mv mother
that he '' had some stuff abont him whioh wonld lay either her or any other person asleep . "—( This we believe refers to a superstitions notion , ntertainod by | persons in those parts , that the men who accompany the fiats in their voyages have about them a kind of charm , for producing certain talismanio effects . ) Witness continued her statements by deposing that Hough threatened to send the bailiffs ; ( deceased kept a shop ) deceased left the house , andVwent to an Attorney ' s office , to know whether he could send the bailiffs ; ehe afterwards went to Luoy Poynton ' e house , where she complianed of being unwell , and went up stairs , where she eaid , " O dear , you must let me lie on your bed , for I shall die "; she afterwards said , 0 Bill Hough , 0 Bili Hough , thou hast done my job" ; deceased
was perfeotly sensible , I remained with her the whole afternoon , I left her and returned the following morning , she was very ill and rambling ; she complained very much of her bead , there were present Luoy Poynton and several other persons ; Ann Hitobin was also present applying leeches to both temples . My step-father came to see deceased in the afternoon , but my mother refused to see him . I remained with her till ten o ' clock . I did not see h « r agaiu till Wednesday morning , she was then worse : I remained with her about ten minutes . I did not see her alive after this time . £ We may here remark , that Hough was a widower when he married the deceased , she also being a widow , and both having children , the offspring of their former marriages ; who , it appears , all lived together when this unhappy transaction oocurred . J
Nanoy Allcock , another daughter of the deceased , corroborated her sister ' s testimony in all its main particulars . Sarah Marsh confirmed the previous evidence . Sarah Harrison , landlady of the Wheat Sbeaf public-house , stated that deceased called there on Monday morning , the 3 rd instant ; she was very sick , and had a little brandy and water ; she went away much excited , leaning on Mrs . Poynton ' s arm . Catharine Leather deposed—On Sunday , the 2 nd lnst ., I was in the shop of James Marsh , when I heard deceased Bcream out" murder . " I went into the back yard , and saw deceased leaning against a rain tub ; she said , " Oh , woman , wrtl yon see mo murdered } " Wm . Hough waa standing behind her ; ho struck her two blows on the back part of her head . I said " Oh , Wm . Hough , don ^ t h it her , " and
he said , " I'll knock her bloody neck off ; " he appeared to be tipsy . On Sunday night deceased sent for me , and said she dare not stay in the house alone , for she was afraid her husband was getting more drink . I remained with her the whole night . I left at five o ' clock on Monday morning . Hoagh came in at twelve o'clock on Sunday night ; there was no quarreling while 1 stayed . We had nothing but coffee and some stew . Deceased complained very much of her ( head in the course of the night , and said , " this is what I wanted , I wished him to Btrike me , for I conld then swear my life against him ; she said Bhe had no comfort amonpst them ; she did not blame her hnsband so much as his son ; he had been a good husband to herself , and & good father to her children . Deceased and her husband bad appeared to live on good terms with each other ;| f never knew them to have words before this qoarreTi
Jane Weadall , who had been called od to draw deceased breasts , ' deposed to the appearances ; deceased said , " O dear me , I doubt William Hough has done my job . " Lucy Poynton , corroborated the testimony of the two first witnePBes as to the facts mentioned by them ; and further deposed , that on the Monday , Mr . Dean , a surgeon was &ent for , whose attentions witness described . William Hough ( she added ) came to my house on Wednesday , where he remained the whole day ; he was apparently in great distress ; at two o ' clock he went np stairs with me , and assisted in rubbing his wife's hands ; he kissed her , and she
kissed him ; deoeased appeared insensible but unable to articulate ; she became gradually worse , and expired abont six o ' olook on Thursday morning . Wm . Hough remained with her the whole of the night , and left my house about a quarter of an hour before deceased expired . Mr . James Dean , surgeon , of Winnington , deposed that he visited the deceased on the Monday , Tuesday , and Wednesday , and described the remedies he applied , as well as the result of a post mortem examinatiod of the body on the 7 th instant . He was of opinion that death was caused by inflammation of the brain ; a blow on the chest might produce snoh inflammation .
Mr . Samuel Dean , surgeon , also saw deceased , accompanied by his brother , on the Wednesday evening , and attended the post mortem examination ; his opinion w&s that , she suffered from effusion on the brain , caused by previous inflammation ; in his judgment , she would not have died had she not ro ceived several contusions and concussions prior to her death . ' Samuel Birt identified the body as that of Sarah Hough . The investigation occupied ten hours ; but the above are the most material points in tho evidence adduced . After consalting together for about half an hour , the jury returned the following
Verdiotu That the deceased came to her death by inflammation of the brain , brought on by concussion , whioh was occasioned by injuries inflicted on her by her husband , and tbat she would not have SO died , if such injuries had not been inflicted on bar , and that such injuries were not inflicted with malice aforethought .

TO THE EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN STA . Sib , —The trials at Lancaster being now over , a ; d thirty good men having been found guilty of bein ? Chartists , it is the doty of every one who values his home and his country , to come forward and assist in carrying out the , se glorious principles of Chartism , which appears to me to be the only remedy for all our national grievances . The Corn Law League having seta good example by placing a packet of tracts in the hands of every elector throughout the kingdom , in order , aB they say . to enlighten the electoral body . I now propose tbat where ever there are two or three Chartists , they may form themselves into a committee , provide themselves with . a . list of the electors , which they may do , by applying to the overseer , and then collect as much money Ss they can weekly , and send for Stars to supply the elector with , omitting the parties that get the first week until all be supplied .
Perhaps some of our friends m ' M say we ate too poor . Where this is the case , they may apply to other parties for old Stars . End distribute them as before mentioned , until every elector throughout thekingdum be supplied with Stor-light By this mode or proceeding , the electoral body will be enlightened , and I have no . doubt but mauv would come over and join us , in our moral warfare Cf r ' . tjnfc against might . We have many instances of men being opposed to our principles , -who by reading the Star , have become most zaalous supporters of the case . I am , yours , in the cause , Wm . Nicholson . "Dlverstone . 233 March . 1843 .
P . S . There is about 500 hands at tbe Copper Works , in ConSatoD , without Star-light . If tfome of our itusnd » would be pleased to send a few old Stars directed to Mr . John Addiaon , they may be the means of doing good . If you should think the above worth notice , you are at liberty to make what use of it you think proRer ' w . n .
