she said that she felt sorry for him; that she sym- pathized with him, and one time she remarked that she ‘was not sorry to see that his troubles would soon be at an end;he always tried to silence her, but she would resist in denouncing his wife’s conduct; the evening Before that I said to hia that T was sorry for his troubles —that it was too bad that he could not piace confidence in her—that it was natural to have some one in whouy confi- dence might be placed;

he asked me about medicine, and we looked over the books; we found a passage where it said in relation to'sanguinariz that the seeds had a violent effect on the brain; he wanted that 1 should give him some of the seeds. Sangquinaria ia blood root. I told him that I had none; then he said that he wanted me, with my knowledge and with the aid of books, to find eomething that would act gradually on the brain, cause congestion, and finally agoplexy ; he came from that day to about the 18th of August two or three times; ‘on’ these visit? I paid no attention to what he said because it was what be had said before; the first visits made impression; about the 12th in the evening—he al- ways called in the evening—he came and said he wonld get about $100 for me to go to Philatelphia with; I told him I would not accept the money on the conditions that be had named; that if I could not receive it as I had some other money I would not have it; the next evening he came he said “ Joseph, you remember what you said last night about receiving this money; I do notgive it to you for any thing of the kind, but because I promised it to ‘ou long ago; he asked me then if Lever knew him to fail in keeping a promise to my father or myself? 1 an- swered no; he said “1 want you to goto Philadelphia; you can go better than any one else, and you must have money to go with; we bad arranged or talked of sending Dr. Havill, @ physician of this city, in my placo; I had spoken to Dr. Havill about it, but be declined to go; I wok the meney with the understanding that be should not consider 1 took it on any oye! that he had made; there was one hundred; he then urged me wo re him something for his wife to take during my absence; that he could not live so and that I must help him; if I did not,he would never speak to ano- ther person sbout + pre the course of his con- versation, he spoke Dr. Villier’s attending her; the doctor attended her the year before this time, I think; I gave bim the sambuchas and no sanguinaria, sambuchas is @ pre] of elder; the preparation I gave him was a tincture of the elder bark; it resembles very nearly in color the sanguinaria; previous to this last visit I weat and saw Mr, David McKay; I asked his advice; I saw defen- dant on the evening of the 23d, he came to my house; I called at his house to see Mrs. Robertson on the 22d, and saw her; on the evening of the 23d; before he came, Mr. Oviatt, chief of police, came to the house; this was on Saturday evening—Mr. Oviatt was in the room whero we conversed, in a wardrobe; after being seated 1 told Mr. Robertgon that I felt bad concerning his ‘ition to me; he said that he also felt bad, that could have such trouble as he had to endure at home; he said he thought ‘of committing suicide; Iasked him if he could not get along with his trouble in some other way ;he said ‘ how?”’ l asked him if he could not send for her mother, saying that perhaps she might influence her; he said she was deaf, and besides his wife was determined to continue the trouble, and it would be of no use; he said, “Joseph, I did not mean that you should understand me that it should be done in six weeks, but in seventy days; I counted it up yesterday;” he then questioned me about some medicines; I don’t know what he said; { forget; san- guiuaria was one; conium he said would not answer, as that liquified the blood; just previous to this he said’ he wanted me to give him a medicine that would cause a rush of blood to the head, cangestion and finally = een he said conium would not answer as it liquified jlood ; he said that Mrs. Robertson did not like the ale he said the ale she did not like to mke; he said you told her it was not for ber; 1 told him that it was 80 ap- parent that a child might see that it was not good for her; said that she had complained that it affected her un- Pleasantly ; then I said I cannot do it; I have not the heart to do #; cand you get along with it in some other way? he fail po, 1 then asked if he could not put it off until spring; he said, ‘Joseph it must be done by the Ist of No- vember; Ihave contidence in you and you must have confidence m me; it shall be worth your place to you; when yotr father was arrested I went to the ro office and saw Squire Moore; I did all I could for him till people began to think me guilty; [can help your father; I have friends in Buffalo and here who will aid me, and no one shall know anything about it;’’ he eaid, all I want you to,do is to furnish me medicine; it will be in my hands, and, therefore, there will be no danger; you noticed that sho bad beon erying; I will toll you, it was a mere whim about mon Jay ing pipes in my house; she said she wanted one certain man, while 1 wanted ‘others from the store;”’ Ijsaid Mra.

It is a matter of common report that quite a num- ber of the old police force who have taken legal steps to recover their wages—for services rendered up to the time of the decision of the Court of Appeals affirming the con- stitutionality of the late Metropolitan Police law—have been informed by their counsel that they can be ted immediateiy, on the condition that they abandon to the recovery of back pay as members of the old police force. Is this bait held out with the knowledge of the Police Commissioners?
