While there are so many cases of hornii
cide awaiting trial, with cases of almost
daily occurrence ; and judging from recent .
past experience how very uncertain is their
conviction and punishment, it may be well,
forbidding though the subject he, to review
one of the most appalling cases of deliberate
murder on record, among the Anglo-Saxon
race. _ Occurring in England, we can judge
from this case whether we have not departed
somewhat it'om the English system of trial
by jury, for capital offenses, which ‘we
adopted.
Doctor William Palmer, of Rogeley, Staf-
ford county, in England, was tried, convicted
and executed June 14, 1856, eighteen days
'siter the trial wasconcluded, for the murder
of John Parsons Cook, by poison. He was
also indicted for the murder oi his wife and
a brother, a short time previous, by the
“me means; all for the same interested
motives. More heedless in his operations
on Cook, and lacking the same facilities in
having him'under his Own roof, led to ex-
posure. Being convicted tor the murder of
Cook, he was not, of course,’tried for the
others. , '
Palmer was a physician of some note, and
of a respectable and wealthy ihmily. He
acquired some property by his profession,
but very soon imbibed a passion for garn-
bling at horse races which " weaned him
from it. Deficient in his. judgment 0f horses,
or indiscre'et in betting, he very soon ran
through with his property. ~~His passion'for
' the “turf” seemed to increasewith his finan-
cial embarrassments. To obtain means ,to
continue his gambling propensities,he forged
his mother's acceptano‘e,a widow of large
fortune, to bills of exchhnge' in his favor, as
812.500.,whlchlhé7'sl’it‘disconnted; some
exposure and retainer; him in the face if
he failed _to_‘ prairie fOr these bills at
maturity, as usual ooh-crime led to; another,
he insured .his wife‘s life. for £10,000, and
soon ailer Ipoi‘sOuedTher. ', Ashe was then

all, to: his wife, it was generally belief !
was neither his first nor his second victim:
Failing to receive the insurance on his
brother’s life, and his creditors becoming
more importunate, he resolves upon , an-
other victim, anintimate Mend of his turf
pursuits, Cook, to whom he was indebted.
By his death he expected to liquidate that
debt by concealing the evidence of it ; but a
still greater inducement with him to take
the lifcrof Cook was to get possession oi his
property, for which he had laid his plans.
In all probability he. would not have been
suspected at the time, but for the fact that
Cook’s bettingbook was 'not' to be found.
Palmer was seen to have it at thetime of
Cook? death,and whcn'it became known
that he appeared on that as a debtor for a
considerable 'sum. lost at a recent race, sus-
picion naturally fell: upon him that he had
had something to do with ,Cogk‘s death,
which was so inconsistent .witlr natural
causes. Suspicion was sOon brought to con-
viction in the public mind; and the investio
gatiou in thisicase excited suspicion that he
was likewise the cause of his wife’s and his
brother's death, as they were also mys-
terious, and the motives with him so ap-
parent. A little investigation brought out
the following fuels, which ware published at
that finite : _ '
“The glenersl case ugliest Palmer is con-

gains, through an insurance, by his wife’s
death. He attempts, by the some means, to

premrums on these policies he borrows

charging him with the murders Of his wife,

court ,to have the trial take place rearrotc
from his home and the scene of the
tragedies, giving ten reasons therefor, of
which the following are the principal : ’

the entire eleventh, from 10 a. in. until 8 p.
m., and the twelfth, from 10 a. m. to 2 p. m.,
being occupied by Lord Chief Justice
Campbell in reviewing the evidence on both
sides and charging the jury. Palmer’s
counsel and friends complained that Lord
Campbell’s charge showed prejudice and
was unfair; and a brother of Palmer, 0
clergyman of the Church of England,pub-
lished a pamphlet, censoring his course very
severely. The following from the charge
were the points on which the greatest stress
was laid. The report says:
uThe learned judge went over the whole
of the evidence relating to the preliminary
transactions. He then passed on to that of
the witnesses who had given testimony re-
' gsrding Cook’s illness and Palmer’s medical
attendance on him. The evidence of New-
ton as to the purchase of strychnine by
Palmer on the Monday night was most im-
portant. It was, no doubt, true that this
witness had been silent on the matter at the
coroner’s inquest, but a reason had been
given for his keeping it back then, while no
motive had been assigned for his inventing
so abominable a lie against a man towards
whom he had no ill-will. Then there was
the uncontrudicted evidence of Roberts 05 to
the purchase of strychnine by Palmer on
Tuesday evening, and the very remarkable
circumstance that no attempt had been made
to show what the prisoner had done, or in-
tended to do, with the poison. The learned
counsel for the defence had said, nothing as
‘to the theory he might have formed with re-
spect to the mode in which the strychuiue
purchased by the prisoner was'disposed of,
and upon that point not 0. syllable of evi-
dence had been brought before them. There
was no proof, and even no suggestion, how
it was applied. That circumstances would
not at all influence their judgment, unless
they believed the symptoms of Cook were
consistent with death by strychnia; but if
they came to the conclusion that his death
was caused by strychnis, and if they be-
lieved the witnesses, Newton -und Roberts,
then he should be shrinking from his duty,
and should be unworthy to sit there, if he
did not call their attention to the impértant
inference that if Cook died by. strychm‘a that
stryehm'a was administered by the prisoner at
the bar, (sensation).”
The evidence was purely circumstantial.
No. trace of strychnia was found in the body,
and neither any proof that Palmer had ad-
ministered any. But the fact of hill pur-
chasing strychnine from different persons
immediately before the death of Cook, with-
out being able to give any explanation of it;
that he administered medicine to him on
several occasions after those purchases, the
immediate effect of which was such as is
produced by strychnia ; the symptoms just
before death and the condition and appear-
ance of the body after death, together with
the motive for taking the life, made so clear
that he died from strychnia, that the jury
were but one hour and seventeen minutes
‘in consultation before agreeing upon a ver-
dict of guilty.
The conflicting testimony of the profes-
sional men on this trial must have been very
perplexing to the jury,.and the counsel for
the prisoner relied entirely upon this to con—
fuse them and obtain a verdict of .acquitul.
It is worthy of note, that the ten doctors
and professors of medicine and chemistry on
the part of the execution, generally agreed
with Prof. A. Swayne Taylor, that they
“knew of no cause in the range of human
diseases to which the symptoms in Cook’s
‘case could be referred, except the effects of
fpoison by strychnia." And for the defense,
fourteen scarcely less prominent nnd emi-
‘nent doctors and professors generally agreed
with Prof. Thos. Nunneley, that “the state
of the heart, the lungs and the brain were
points upon which I found my opinion that
Cook did not die from the administration of
strychnia ; and that the particulars of the
:post-mortem examination of Cook differ
materially from all the cases where I have
made the examination after a death by
strychnia.” And he further testified tllot“hc
the-poison by the tests he had applied,” to
which most of those for the defense agreed,
while those for the prosecution contended
that “when a minimum dose. sufficient to
destroy life, was given, it would be absorbed
in the blood, and no trace of it found in the
_stomacb.”
With this conflicting testimony presented
to them, and without any positive evidence
to guidctbem, it must have been a. great re-
lief to the jury to learn, after the execution
of Palmer, that he made a quasi-confession
of his guilt to his spiritual adviser, which
'was published, and from which I make the
following extracts: ’
"The chaplain not. unr‘requently found
Palmer suffering intense mental agony ; ihe
struggle. even in his obduratc breast being
very severe between a desire to do things
meet for repentance and to keep up an up.
penrauce Of firmness and courage, as falla-
cious as it was dangerous. On one occasion
—'tlre Thursday night before his execution—
,thc prisoner underwent such a mental
struggle as we have indicated. The chap.
lain gave him the best and kindest advice,
showing the distinction between private and
public crimes. and pointing out that the
latter demanded a confession before man.
Palmer seemed to feel the. force of the chop-
Inin’s remarks, and made use of these re-
markable words‘: ‘If its necessary for my
soul’s asks to confess this murder, I ought
also to confess the others]? .
And this must have been a great relief to
all those who were instrumental in bringing
this great criminal to justice, and caused-
some compunction of conscience to those
who had made-such efforts for his acquitul,
and afterwards for a pardon, declaring their
belief in his entire innocence.
. Palmer was taken back to his home, and
the scene of hisborbarous crimes, and thcge
executed eighteen dog/s alter the sentenchA
few extracts from the report of one who
witnessed the execution, mode to a London
paper, will show that Palmer was not mis-
taken in his estimate of the prejudice against
him at and near his Ironic. where he bud
been known so long : -
“The inns carried omr brisk trade the day
previous to his execution. All day long
people flock into the town by road, by roll,
on foot, on horseback, ill gig, carriage, or
on a donkey. Beds had been at a premium
for days past. There was none to be got,‘
not for love, not for money. not for any con
siderutiou ; d lucky were those who, cori-
tent to sit up all night in a chair. take lodg-
ings in a bay loft, or share a stable with
horses, and there obtain support for the
inner-man. By four o'clock in the morning
hundreds had already taken position. and
at six every foot of vantage-ground was oc-
cupied,while the population of the surround-
ing villages still came pouring into the tOwn.
Comparatively few of the vest assemblage
were able to see the execution,—-probubl.
not more than five or six thousand—4hr:

cepted by the towers of the goal. Contrary
to general expectation, the .crowd did not
evince any lrlnnifestation against the crimi-
nal upon hisi'emakiglrg his appearance on the
scaffold. . * In the comes of
the day the body was bu rl'ed within the precincts

but one life for the many sacrificed by him,
but that one life, ignominiously forfeited.

lieve amongst an ordinary panel sfjurymen
any twelve men could be found'ullbiased."
4. “I say that, In addition to the charge of
murder of the late John Parsons Cook, I am
also charged, on coroner’s inquisitions. with
the murder of my late wife, Ann Palmer,
.nd-my late brother, Walter Palmer; all
the said murders being alleged‘to have been
committed by means of poison.”
5. “I am informed, and verily believe,
that in and about the neighborhood of Staf-
ford (Rugeley being Only-C Iritie miles distant
from Stafi'ord) I am alsozs‘oculod of having
murdered" several other persons, which
rumor is generally believed to be true.”
The court having no authority in such
cases, and Parliament not being in session,
the trial was delayed. A special act of
Parliament was passed to meet the case,
which received the .Q'leen'. atalent, and the
trial took place ‘in London in May, six
months after the death ofCook. New}...

lnin wiles and contrivances of evenpro-
fesslonnl men, who outrage the lawsof God
and man, may be brought to light and plin-
ished.” .
No one, I presume, will pretend that any
one of the standing of Palmer, with influen-
tial friends and relations to furnish money
without stint for his defense, could be con—
victed in any of the large cities in this
country, without some more direct and pos-
itive evidence of guilt than was produced
on his trial, even though .the community
generally should be as fully impressed with
his guilt as Palmer’s gruntrymcn were with
his. . In the case of Mrs. Wharton, tried for

Hair V rgor,
For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.
'A dressing
which is at
once agreeable,
healthy, a. n d
effectual for
, preserving the
‘ hair. It soon
restores faded
or gray flair
to its original
~\ - color, with the
gloss and fies/mess of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and baldness often, though not always,
cured by its use. ' Nothing can restore
the hair where the. follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands ntrophicd and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-I
lated into activity, so that it new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with n pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it; clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling oil‘, and
consequently prevent baldness. The
restoration of vitality it; gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma~
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but; not: harm it. If wanted
merely for’ o. HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be foulld so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet; lasts-
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

‘ There'were no'cows in'all' the town so
famous for giving milk, for making butter
so yellow and sweet, and cheese so creamy
and rich,us the cows of Deacon Stockton.
I will not 'say thatMrs. Stockton, the dea-
con’s good wife, had nothing to do with
this. Iwill not say‘that the milk-room on
the north side of the house, do beautifully
filled up by the deacon and always kept so
clean and sweet ; that the long row of bright
pans every day set out in ,the sun, so cheer-
ful that their very faces reflected the light
of day ; that the large, cool churn, with its
thermometer attached to it, had nothing to
do' with this everywhere coveted butter.
Be that as it may, it is certain that one
hundred pounds of the deacon‘s butter were
wanted where one could be had.
There was Joe Hunt, who lived in 0.
small, unpainted, Window-broken house,
aboutamile from deacon Stockton’s. Joe
was a. good-natured, easy, careless creature,
always wondering why he had such poor
luck in the world. This was a puzzler.
He would spend half the forenoon, with a
short, black pipe in his mouth, and his
hands in his pockets, leaning against the
sunny side of his house. pondering on the
question why he had such bad luck. At
last, casting his eyes upon the lhill side far
away, he saw the dencon’s cows feeding at
their leisure. Slowly, but surely, Lthe
thought broke in upon him, that: if he had
but one of those cows, he would be made.
'Why,he would have butter equal to the
‘ deacon’s, milk to sell, cakes to raise, pigs
to turn into failed hogs, and who knows
what besides! Full of the grand scheme,
he laiddown his pipe till he had put on his
coat and hunted up a little more tobacco,
when he resumed the pipe and went pulling
straight on his way to Deacon Stockton‘s. .,
He soon found the deacon, busy as, usual,
but not hurried.
"Good-morning, deacon. I want to buy
one of your cows.” '
“Indeed ! And where would you pasture
the cow ?"
“Ohl in the street, almost anywhere.”
“And how can you pay for her? for you
talk about buying."
“Why, I’ll work for you on the farm.
Now, what’s your price, deacon, for one of
your very best cows ? I don't want any but
the best, mind ye.”
“Very well, Joe. If you will come and
work for me faithfully for two months, be-
ginning to-morrow, you shall have your
pick of all 'my flock.” ,
“It‘s a bargain, deacon ; I’ll do it."
Sure enOugh,'Joe was on hand the next
morning bright and enrly ; and so delighted
was his wife that she urged and coaxed and
everyy kind of RULE held him up to his duties. The two months

For a few days she did pretty well, but
gradually the cow grew thin, her bag shriv-
clled up, and her milk grew less in quantity
and poorer in quality.
Almost two months after he had become
owner of the cow, J on met the deacon. .
