I saw no evidence of melancholy or low ness of spirits. He did not say that h« had taken the poison to commit suicide. Witness was examined atjsome length by Mr. Wynn as to the symptoms of deceased, to show that they were not those usually exhibited by persons poisoned by arsenic. llobert Harding deposed : I ana a licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, and of the Royal College of Mirgeons, Ireland. Yesterday morning, about five o'clock, 1 was called by the son of deceased, who said his father had taken poison. I went down, and found deceased sitting up in the bed. Dr. Wright was with him. Dr. Wright in formed me that he had administered an emetic of sulphate of zinc, as deceased had told him he had taken poison. Deoeased, in answer to my inquiry, told me he had taken poiaon. He did not say for what purpose. He did not say it was by mistake. There were then no symptoms of poisoning, and de ceased did not complain of pain. There was no vomiting, or purging, or cramps. He was sensible, and I could detect no symptom of liquor. He had a frightened look, but I consider he was save. I have heard the evidence given by Dr. Wright, and I agree with it in the main. I first came about five o clock, and remained till about eight: I returned between eight and nine and stayed about twenty minutes. 1 saw him again iv the forenoon between ten and eleven, and stayed half-an-hour. I was sent for about half-past eleven, and remained about half-an hour. I saw deceased again about half-past twelve for about ten minutes. I came again at twenty minutes after four o'clock, and remained till he dud at six o'clock. There were no decided symptoms of poisoning till between eleven and twelve o'clock, ex cepting vomiting, which might have re hulted from the operation of our medicines, and the large use of diluents, given for the purpose of promoting vomiting. Between eleven or twelve[o'clock, he complained of slight con striction of the throat and dryness, with pains in the region of the stomach. The pain was not then acute. The vomiting still continued. The bowels acted once about eleven o'clock naturally.
