Uookeon denizs all knowledge of the murder. and declares that the body found was not that | of his wife. He admits, however, that he knew suspicion | rested upon him before he left home. He asked the oficers several times if they had found the child, and he made several contradictory statements concerning both his wife and child. Ho told the man for whom he worked in Seekonk, that the child was dead, and he wanted money to bury it. Great excitement exists in Paw- tucket and Seekonk. Death of the Rev. William M.

The subscribers therefore pray the Common Council may pass a resolution to discontinue suid proceedings. This remonstrance was referred to the Committee on Law. ‘THE PAY OF THE POLICE. The report of the Committee on-Police having been brought up relative to the proposed increase of salary, the chamber, outside the bar, was filled with captains, as sistant captains, and policemen, who were watching the Proceedings. An amendment war moved that the salary Of policemen be at the rate of $600, tor every day they | actually serve. A discussicn then took place as to whether it was better toadopt the per diem system, or anannual sum. The chief objection to the per diem system was, that it made no provision for sickness ; but it was answered by stating that the Mayor has the power to limit the duty or service of every policeman, and to excuse him if he think fit. Alderman Dover contended that the law of April 10, 1850, prohibited any alteration of the salary of the po- lice during their term of office. Alderman Siri thought they ought to look to the interests of the tax-payers, Alderman Kruty said policemen were exposed to dan- i and were, therefore, entitled to a good salary. The ‘ourth ward was an instance of the perils to which thoy were subject. Zuo poleanen: had been killed in that ward in the course of one month—a result of the spacial legislation that prevailed in this State for the last nine months—taking away men from the Fourth ward, in- stead of adding thereto. ac was finally adopted, by a vote of 0 7. quo neee to diminish the captain's pay from $800 to 750, was It was mor LS gegen Barn that the assistant captains have $760. The motion was lost. A motion was then made to reduce the salary of the detail men, Tt was suggested that the section gave the detailed men who did duty in other wards, less than if they were de- | tailed in their own wards, Alderman Bax. said it was sup] that detailed mon received some extra compensation. Those around the chief might possibly receive something extra, but the in- spectors of carts, and officers attending iu courts, re- ceived no such compensation. He thought they were as much cotitled to the increase as other policemen. Alderman Grirriy said the idea of ing detail men who could attend theatres and other ces of amuse. ment, for which they were paid. and go home and have their sleep every night, the same salary with those who had to do the work, was preposterous. This would pro. bably kill the whole bill. P Alderman Burrroy said the detail mon made largely— some $50 or even $100 in the week, Alderman Sturtevant said the detail men had a bet- = — of rewards, They made sometimes $200 in the wee ‘ The ordinance as amended was then adopted, as fol- ows — Captains. $800. Assistant Captains, $700. Patrol men and Sergeants, $600 Detailed men, $500. MISCELLANKOUS. Communications from the Street Commissioner nomi- nating Robert 8. Dodge for appoiatment as City Surveyor.

The order for the commission was issued Personal attendance of Dr. Clark should be dispensed with, if possible, tn uence of his present debidty, arising a fracture of the thigh. The supposed luna- tic isa pative of Seotland, umd was formerly medical attendant of the late Duke of Athol, Dr. Nichols, examined by Mr. Carpentier. deposed—I am physic an ofthe Lunatic Asylum at Bloomingdale; Dr John Clark, the supposed lunatic. is in my custody; besides bareg | avery aged man he has a fracture of the right thigh. ‘which he is unable to attend here; he is insane; Lam dispesed to think it arises from old and his suffering and prostration; I do not think could be brought down here to attend this inquiry with out danger to his life; he is also suffering from diarrhea; Ido not think he is sufficient for the government of him- self or the ement of his affairs. Q.—Do you kuow anything of the property and connections of the sup- lunatic? A.—I know nothing of his property; he as a niece named Mra. Green; he has been under my care since the 16th of June. * To a Juror.—His friends say he is 91 himeelf says he is 81; he is irritable; I do not think that taking him to the CS og in the first instance bad any effect in producing his present state ot mind; there is nothing to prevent the jury visitiog him in the asylum. ‘To Professor Mott.— Ile is unquestionably yo ag from managing his affairs; he recogaises his frfends; bis. recollection of the past seems to be good. To the Jury.—I do not think it is customary for per- sons of that to become insane, but it frequently oe- curs; I think Doctor Clark's disease is old age and the sufferings from the fracture; old age alone would not reduce Doctor Ulark to his present state; bat suffering from pain. and being bedridden from the frac- | ture. have combined to render him insane. Doctor Ludlow—Deposed that he had seen Doctor Clark. and in bis opinion he is insane. To the Commissioners.—I cannot satisfactorily answer whether his insanity aries from physical causes. Doctor ¥'. U. Johnson deposed that he knows the sup- posed luvatic; he isa Scotchman by birth, and witness does not know that he has ever been naturalized, or that he holds any real or personal estate; he is between eighty and ninety jears of age; I perceived his insanity wbout six months og0; I think he is incapabte of managing his af. fairs; (attribute his insanity to old age, and the fracture of the thigh, which has never been united. ToaJuror—lle has n he was a surgeon in the British army, and has told me that he war formerly physician to the Duke of Athol; he has two nieces, Mrs. Green and Mrs. Macdennell ; he has a nephew, lonel John Clark, of the British army, To the Commissioners—He has frequently supposed him-elf tormented by insects, and told me ‘to look as them; he bas faacied that « hole was im the floor. and that he was in danger of failing through ; he ts a bache- tor; apart from these halicinalions, he is not sane; to all intents and purposes he is an insane man, Doctor Bartlett examu by Mr. Carpenter—This witness also gave it as his opinion that Doctor Clark is inpene. Mr. Thornton, of the firm of Dean & Thorton. mer- chante, deposed that he knows Doctor Clark; he isa very aged man; he has a nephew in the British army, | who was out here some couple of years ago; Docior Clark is not naturalized ; he has some property in stocks and railway shares, to the amount of, [ think, between $15,000 and $20.00); my partner, who Is now in Europe, bas acted as his ageut: & can't say how long Doctor Clark has been in this eountey ; 1 do not kuow that he bas sold ary of his property ; I always understood that his Repbew was his heir, A Juror to Mr. Carpentier—At whose instance ace these proceedings taken ?

Mr. Carpentier asked the comnissioners to charge that Doctor John Olark was insane, and that his next of kin are Col, Clark, of the British army, and the other persons named Mr. Crist addressed the jury on the evidence and the law of the case. Professor V. Mott, Jr. inaddressing the jury. gave it as bir opinion, that the hatlucinations are sufficient to show that Doctor Clark's property should be placed in other bands than his own. As the nature of his Injury, (the fracture of the thigh) is incurable in one so fir vanced in years, he will be, for the remainder of his i bedridden; and being inenpacitated from taking exer. else, hie mind will gradually become more aud more une oun ‘The room was then cleared, aod in a very few minutes the jury brought im a verdict that Doctor John Clark is insane, and has been of unsound mind for the bust two months; that bis property ia velued at $40,000; next ofkin are Colonel John Clark, of the Mrs. Green, of Bast Greenwich, Kt. 1.; and Mrs. nell, and Mrs, MePhearson, of Canada. ‘The Oxford Bank Case.
