.\Vltat gift hove you_ brought to your own fi,resi_de’l_
’Twas a motherls voice that spake-—.. ,
AVVithont, the tempest doth fiercely chide,
But peace andjoy shall within abide;
Oh cherish them for my sake. I‘
A common stock is our liappindss here;
Each heart must contribute its mite,
The bliss to swell, orthe pain to cheer;
Son ‘and daughter and husband dear,
‘Vital will you add to-‘night?
Then the student-boy from the lettered page‘-
Raised a bright tliougllt-speaking eye; “A

And kindle a flame ’rnid the frost of age
\Vith light and majesty.
A blooming,girl, like a rose on its stem,
Her birtl-like carol poured ;_

A fair babe woke in its cradle bed.
And clung to its mother’s breast,
But soon to the knee of its sire it sped;
Love was its gift, and the angels said
That the baby's gift was the best.
Then the father he spoke, with a grateful air,
Of the God whom his youth had lznown;
And the mother’s sigh of tender care,
VVent up in the shape of a winged prayer,
And was heard before the Throne.

it in ‘her family for many years. It___v_7as on‘
Thursday that he went there and on the_‘ follow-
ing evening his brother cal'l‘8Cl to see_ him. and
was told he had taken a course of medicine. He
then complained of pain and fever. On Satur-
day evening he called agent, and the deceased
was very sick, and was evidently partially de-
ranged, and on being asked ifhe ha_ taken any
nourishing drinks, he replied, all. he had taken
was composition tea—-it was nothtngbuttca, tea,
tea, and h.e believed he had taken two pails full.
M r; U. French. (a brother of the deceased, and
a most material witness forthe prosecution) in
the course of 4 or 5 hours saw as many injec-
tions given to the deceased. and on inquiring of
the accused, ifa cathartic was not ‘good, he re-
plied they never used it, in their pra...lce, and if
given it would be difficult to stop its operation.
On Sunday morning he called again and the de-
ceased was more delirious than at any previous
time. On Sunday evening he was steamedand
took an emetic,'and as he was not improving his
brother told Frost, he did not approve of his sys-
tem. and requested him, as soon as he felt any
doubt as to the patients safety, to inform him of
, it, and he would call in another physician. But
Frostonly laughed at histimidity. On Monday
morning heappeared rather better, but on Mon-
day evening he wasagreat deal worse and was in
‘ intense agony, and Frost said he had given him
a tremendous dose of Lobelia. On Tuesday
morning he bled at the nose, and an injection
was given him. and ice was put about him.-
The injection was of lobelia. and was given to
stop the bleeding at the nose, after ice had failed
-to produce that effect. On _'I‘u_esdaY eVem.ng.—as
the patient was evidentlytu a very dangerous
state, Dr. Cheeseman was sent for, but be de-
clined doing any thing unless anotber physician
was called also, and Dr. Joseph M. Smith came
in._ Dr. C. said the deceased’s nervous system
was much shattered and required something to
arouse it. and be sent for some medicine. lJ_Ul llle
patient was too far gone l0 5‘Vall°W 3")’ _llll“8"‘
The deceased was then in bed persptnng very
freely, his body excessively hols and 003 P3;'50l1
on each side of the bed holding the coverings
down, His‘ pulse was over 160 1.0.8 rntnute, he

To the Thompsonian practitioners the
result of this case was of immense importance,
andituthe community at large, the decision of
this jury would be one of the greatest impor-
tannce. The Court then laid down the law as
applicablcto this case and continued-—_:that it was.‘
wilhin me province ofthejury to acquit the pris-
oner entirely, or bring him in as guilty of any
degreeof mt,msla,ughter, which theirjnd_gmcn_ts
would permit, according to the law, ofwlnch they
were the judges as well as the Court, and the
evidence which had been submitted to them.
The Rule‘: of Law is, that thetakingof human
life withoutjustification must either be denomi-
nated murdéror manslaughter, and this is the
jug; pqnal cardinal law relating to human life.
‘Murder, isteqfl-ting life, with malicious intentions,
andmauslau hteristaking oflife. not with malice
but by any inlawful means, yither by carless-
ness or in thd heat ofpassion. It has been wise-
ly enacted ‘uylthe legislature, that the indulgence
iniiitoirication by prescribing physicians is\the
foundation ofa crime. ‘
In relation in the protection of human life, the
law is rigid. lhat ifone man kills another, he is
bound to make outan excuse or justification fur
the act or abide by the consequences.
In relation to medical law, the Court was of
opinion, that whether the accused party. be a
licensed practitioner. or not, the display of gross
ignorance, carlcssncss, inattention or want ofskill
renders him criminally culpable 3 80d Lord El-
lenborough holds, that if a medical practitioner
abridged a human being‘s life. but one single, in-
stant, he was goiity oft_nanslaughter. ‘ _
