THE SILVERSTRE AM MURDER

Press Assooiation-By Electric Telegraph Wellington, February 23 At the murder trial to-day, the Crown prosecutor reviewed at length the evidence. He asked was it credibe lhab Hawthorne would sell to Phi pott, such an article as hi watch. On the Saturday the prisoner made mischief with Sowarby and Mamott, whioh appeared to be part of hie design for the destruction of bis mate and the acquisition of his eoods. The prisoner took the revolver to Snow that evening, with no other reason than to caab sußpioion on Soweiby. Ihere was not a shadow of suggestion of impro priety on the part of Mrs Sowerby, except what came from the priioner. The conduct of Sowerby, on hearing of the talk about his wife, wan the oonduob of a gentleman, lne prisoner oould only have one olgeot m tel.ing Oleland on the Bunday (bat Hawthorne had alrerdy left; but on Sunday Hodgett happened to go up to the cunp, and he saw Hawthorne lying there ill On the Sunday and on the Wednesday night, lights were seen ou the hill m the vioinity of the grave. In all probability the grave was dug m ihe nigh 1 -, and dug for the body to be put m when it was killed It was doubtless dug with » spade, und probably filled m with a •hovel. It" was 'three-quarters of an hour after Phillips left the two men together before he returned to the brow of the hill and saw one man with the dray. Where was the other ? Ib was nob for the Crown to prove the exaot moment of the deed, but counsel pub it that the body by that time had been dragged away to the grave, and thab the prisoner after getting to the bottom of the hill returned, when Phillipß went baok, to hurriedly finish the covering of the body m the grave. Then prisoner appeared running down the traok, having under his arm the gun which had last been seen under Hawthorne's arft. AH the evidence, Mr Bell concluded, pointed m one direction and that was to the prisoner. So overwhelming waß the mass of evidence pointing to the man m the dock that the evidence of witness, after witness could be discarded without affeoting the conclusion. If the accused were acquitted because there was no eye witness of the deed, then any bushmen oould kill his mate. If the jury had any reasonable doubt, then it was the jury's duty to give the acoused the benefit of that doubt, bub if the jury found that one Bdale of the balance was on the ground and the, other kicked the beam, then the jury's duty wbs dear. Mr Jellicoe, for the defence nrged the jury to disabuse their minds of any statements which had been published as to previous convictions of the accused m New Zealand. He said there waa a tendency to impute crime to persons who had been m gaol. Philpotb had seduced away and married the housekeeper of Snow, who cer tainly had no good will towards prisoner. The man was arrested m the presence of his wife. Two days ater the woman with whom Sncw was m communication ' took to the gaol a coat which Snow said he knew was Hawthorne's, and put the coat upon Philpott'a back. Two or three days later Snow went with Menzies to the police, and Snow painted bo the prisoner aB the murderer. The woman musb have known that the coat was Hawthorne's. It was not surprising thab the prisoner after he knew thab Hawthorne had gone away, should write to Hawthorne's sister and attempt to obtain a trifle of money by false pretence. If so it would not be surprising to 6nd thab prisoner did geb a letter con baining four shillings, jusb as he had previously passed a valueless cheque ; bub it was another thing bo Bay thab the jury could spell oub of that letter the crime of murder. If the prisoner had murdered Hawthorne, would he write to his sister that Hawthorne was ill at hia camp when most probably the sister might come down to the camp to see him ? Would nob a murderer, would not a lowest criminal, know at once bhab the writing of theße false state ments would at once call attention to him self ? Also, would a murderer go to the Post Office to get a reply and identify the signa ture on postal notes as Ms own ? As to motives, the suggestion of robbery was based entirely upon the prißoner'd statement that Hawthorne wa« m possession of two sovereigns.

A VICTIM OF Functional Disease. A| m Nifi VER fails any one m iTLIdXUIII 6Uc h a predicament. To sufferers from Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Biliousness and Constipation it is " A friend m need and a friend indeed." Assist Nature by Alaxum, and you will avoid a multitude of distressing functional derangements and diseases. Of all known medicines for renew- ing the energy Alaxum is the best. Its secondary effects are marvellous. Many persons afflicted with constipation have testi- fied not only to its immediate relieving properties but to the faot that the oure lasts. No care is required while using it. It does not interfere with the diet, habits or occu- pation, and produces no inoonvenienoe m its action. It is at once a laxative, an appetiser, and a stimulating tonio, prepared scientifically, and endorsed by the Press as the most valuable medioine that has ever been offered to to the publio m a a popular form. ALAXUM OURBS Biliousness, Bilious Headache, Dizziness, Cosbiveness, Sour Stomaob, Loss of • Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heartburn, Pains and Distress after Eating, and ail functional derangements of the of nutrition,; WOTE THIS WELL,- The whole system of a human being may be perfectly sound, and yet through derange- ment or weakness the organs of the boay may perform cheir functions or their work sluggishly, thus giving rise to want of appetite, and a consequent general impover- ishment of the whole being. Such a con- dition causes thousands of people to fancy that they are consumptive, while they are really only m need of a remedy to see the organs of the body working harmoniously. Reason points to two essential qualities m a remedy for this purpose. .It must create an appetite for food, and at the same time assimilate its nutriment. With either of these qualities alone the remedy would be worse than useless, but with both it becomes a power with incalculable good. Alaxum is the only medicine which combines these two qualities. It is a natural appetiser, and its first action is to create hunger. After the appetite is satisfied it acts directly on the stomach, liver and kidneys, clearing away all effete matter and exciting them to activity. The system then receives nutri- tion and new life from the proper assimila tioa of the food ; and where there is no organic disease health must follow. This is common sense and cannot be gainsaid. Accept no substitute that may be recom- mended to be "just as good.' It may be better — for the dealer — beoause of its better profit, but m such an instance 'ftho^dealer iB not the one who needs help. FROM ALL CHEMISTS & STORE- KEEPERS.

Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica- tion made by the Minister for Foreign Affairs through . the Conßul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics aud Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract m the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crtyie oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we tate :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schulz.ProfeaEor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr. Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of ds resinous and other enbstancos, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the eanative qualities proper to the plant Allcrude oils, or bo called Eucalypti Extractß are to be classed according to the named authorities, among- the turpentines, which are abandoned long since as an. nternal adicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungent odour— which our product, the only genuine .Eucalypti Extract develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear- ance being reduoed m specific density through the presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and ten nates. If these crude oils, so-called euoalypt extracts, are applied by mistake m cases of oroup, bronchitis, diphtheria, incernal nflamatione, dysentery, etc., the con- sequences are moßt appalling.
