THE WIFE-STABBING AT WANGANUI.

BY telegram, this week, a wits-stabbing case at Wanganui was reported. From the "Wanganui Herald" we learn that owing to the symptoms which had set in during the afternoon, it was thought ad visable to at once take Mrs Basons deposi tions. Accordingly, Mr Ward, K.M., tie Clerk of tbe Court, Inspector James, Sergeant Bisset, and Detective Jeffrey, proceeded, at half-past 4 o'clock, to the hospital, when Reuben Bason (who .was present) was rhareed. on the information of Sergeant Bisset, "for that he, on the 23rdI day of March, 1882, ot Aramoho, in the said colony did unlawfully, maliciously, and feloniously wound one Emma Bason, by cutting her with a knife, with intent to do crievous bodily harm to the said Emma Bason, contrary to the form ot the statute in such case made and provided, &c. Emma Bason-who was examined whilst lying in bed—having been sworn, deposed as follows: My name is Emma Bason. I am the wife ot Reuben Bason. I was with my husband at Aramoho yesterday, the 22nd March inst. I left Kennedy's hotel With my husband, walking. It must have been past midnight when we arrived at Aramoho. It was about 10 o'clock when we left Kennedy's, at Upokosgaro. Walker's Hotel at Aramoho was closed. We had no particular altercation, but he waa growling at me about my son gong away. He laid I knew he had gone, and that I had sent him away. I denied it He said I knew very well that I had gent him away, and that he would stick a knife into me. He bad a pocket-knife in his hand. The knife produced is the knife he had in his hand. As he spoke to mehe opened the knife, bnt I did not think he was going to do it. I don t know which blade he opened. This is the only time he threatened me, I was ahead of him and he called me. I turned round nnd he hit at me—that's what caused it. I was struck in tho lower part of my ttomach. He did mot speak when he struck me. I felt I waa wounded when he struck the blow. I put my hand down and told him my stomach was coming out. He seemed very much frightened. He wanted to know what he could do to help, and ran to get help. The wonnd was caused by the knife, which penetrated my clothes and entered my Btomacb. The clethes produced are the clothes that I wore at tbe time, and that were taken off at the hospital. Be fore te strnck me my clothes were not stained with blood. The blow was struck on the road, half-way between the Aramoho Hotel and Field's house. A party told my husband that my son was at Kennedy's, and he would have me go there to see if he was at Kennedy's. My husband was sober when he went np to Kennedy's, but he got too much there. We went up in the coach and walked back. I cot him along as well as I conid. He was tipsy, He could walk without as sistance, and I kept hold of his arm to keep him steady. We were walking till past 12 o'clock—it seemed a very Jong time. After my husband left me Mrs Field came to my assistance. She came not many minutes after the blow was struck. I know Mrs Field came to my assistance at my hus band's request, because I heard my husband waken them up. I was csrned to the Aramoho Hotel. lam quite sure it was not an accident; it was meant-the blow was strnck afterwards. Examined by accused : Mrs Field, ber two daughters, and her son came to my help as soon as they could. I did no. walk a yard or two after what happened. I sat on the bank. You helped me to it— it was not very far. (The prisoner here stated she said, "Pat your hand down here, Rueben; see what you have done. ) The knife with which the wound was in flicted is an ordinary pocket knife, and the blow must have been delivered with great force. The effect of the wound cannot, of course, yet be predicted with certainty, but there is too much reason to anticipate the Worst. The son for whom they went in quest is about 18 years of age, and is said to be a first-Class workman. It is supposed that it was on this account that the father was particularly anxious for his son to live at home.

' Some British ship-owners havo begun to man their vessels with negro seamen exclu sively, the officers alone being white men. They take them at the same wages as prdi ni_y English or foreign seamen. Those who have tried the experiment state that they jfind coloured men as good sailors as Euro- { leans, and that they ate more docile and ess inclined to ran away.' ' , *. 7

SUPREME COURT.-This Day.

Criminal Situhcis.

(Before His Honor Mr Justice Gillies),

The usual quarterly sittings of the Circuit Court were opened this morning, His Honor taking his seat upon the bench at 11 o'clock precisely. THE CIHAND JURY.

- The following gentlemen were sworn in as the Grand Jury : -Herbert Ashton, } Joseph Bennett, James Hugh Buchanan \ Ceates, Charle* Dacie, Thomas Seddon ■ Evans, Daniel Falconer Evana, John Geo. ' Hutchinson, Edward Kinloch, Moses Mon tsgue, John Savage, John Carroll Seccombe, 1 Henry Greensmith Wade, Albert Walker, 1 EbenezerWaymouth, Thomas Henry Webb. ! Charles Williamson, Kobert Macdonald ', Wynyard, and William Baker., Benjamin Johnson and Alfred Porter were also called, i but did not appear. Mr H. G. Wade was ! chosen foreman. THE JODQK'S OHABCIH. His Honor delivered the following charge. *Mr Foreman and gentlemen of the Grand 1 Jury,—l regret to say that the calendar on this occasion is an unusually large one, containing, as it does, the names of 22 persons, accused of no less than 35 offences. Ot these 22 persons three are Maoris, and three women. I do not know_ that this numerous array of charges indicates any great increase of crime in this district, for although there are 22 prisoners to be dealt with, 11 of them are old offenders, the majority of whom have only been a few months out of gaol. Then, too, the great number of charges is accounted for by the fact that in several catcs three or four are preferred against the same individuals, but, with a few exceptions, they are not of a very serious character. The evidence, generally speaking, is ef a very plain nature, so much *o, indeed, asnotto require much comment from mo npon it. There is one case of manslaughter in which a true bill was found at the last sittings of the Court, but, owing to a technical blunaer, it could not then be tried, nnd the case has again to go before you, There is a case of arson, that is, of setting fire to a dwelling, house.' In it, as in most of such cases, the evidence is principally circumstantial, and you will hava to use yonr judgment aa to what weight you should attach to the evidence that is brought before yon. At the same time I would remind you that in this case, as in all others where a doubt exists, your duty is to find a bill.leaving the petty jury to determine on fuller evidence the actual guilt or innocence of the prisoner. All that you have to do is to find if a prima facie case has been made ont calling for i him to be put on trial. There are two cases of bigamy, of a i somewhat unusnal kind, against two . women. The evidence appear* to be very I simple, ahd you wilt have no difficulty in i dealing with it, so that no direction from i me is needed. There are two of those t unpleasant cases, indecent assaults upon < children—one of them being rather I peculiar from the ferocity with which ' it was committed, leading to the ' idea that the man could cot be '. in his right senses. Tbe offence took place ] in broad daylight and in the presence of c other children. Y*u will not have to do '. with the question of sanity, however. < There is one case under the Arms Act for ] selling or rather exchanging pswder and i shot with a native for a horse. A man away in the country buys a horse from i a Maori and pays for it partly in money i and partly in powder and shot without I having a licenie to sell the same. In this I case the evidence is pretty clear as to the c fact that the prisoner was in complete ignorance of the law, and that of course is no excuse, but it may be taken into conai- f deration in awarding punishment If f you find that the thing was done, that will be sufficient to warrant you in return- t ing a true bill. There are four cases of 1 forgery, one of which is very peculiar. It appears that a buahman, whose employer owed him a sum of money, gets from ths c employer a written order upon a bank for at couple of pounds, goes away some distanco. 1 finds that he cannot get cash, and c sends back for the money, but in the mean- 1 time draws a cheque, signs his employer's name, and passes it to a storekeeper. Some time atter the employer sends the £2 ] by another buahman, who, instead of giving it to the person who had drawn the cheque, c tenders him only a portion of it, and for- s wards the balance to a publican, io that the ( prisoner is debarred from repaying the £2 t that he had obtained from the storekeeper p on the cheque. It teems that the i money was really due to him, and t to a greater amount, also, than he had r drawn for. It appears a hard case that an t ignorant man, acting in such a way, should be held guilty ot the crime of forgery, bnt t I will read to you the definition of it, when you will see clearly that this case comes l within it; but if the facts I have stated are 1 proved, they may greatly mitigate the crimi- 1 nality, although they would not lessen the offence. [His Honor then read the definition t of forgery.] You will see, therefore, in what s the offence consists, and that the circum- c stances already referred to constitute no s. justification for writing or signing the r i torged cheque, although they may tend to . mitigate the criminality of the act. There t are a number of cases of false pre- £ fences, larcenies as bailees, and E simile larceni»s, in which the evidence ia so plain and the nature of the crime so t well known here that there is no necessity for me to detain you with any remarks cob.- ( cerning them. Larceny as a bailee consists t in a pers-m who has charge of the property t of and 11 r fraudulently making away with it, at, for instance, a carrier dis- c posing of goods entrusted to his care, t or a person hiring "a horse and selfiug it . without the owner's knowledge. There is i one case of selling stolen goods, in whiph I the essence of the crime is, of course, the selling of the goods, knowing them to have t been stolen. It is difficult to know what may be a man's mind, nut that must be judged from the surrounding circumstances, there are two charges of burglary against J one prisoner, in which the evidence is ao : clear tbat there is no occasion for me to ' state that the crime means the breaking into a house for the purpose of stealing therefrom, particularly during the night time. There |are six charges of cattle- I stealing against oae individual, in which * the evidence, no doubt, will be very ■ voluminous. The defence in * most of these case* is that a mistake had J happened, and we knew tbat mistakes will " happen even in resnect of the be*t defined ■ cattle; but it will be for yon to say " whether it is likely that a man engaged in * dealing with cattle would make 6 mistakes ' with regard to other people's animals, and 6 mistakes, too, occurring at about the same time. There are two charges of horse-steal ing against natives, and one of maiming or wounding a horse, which has no special features. There is also a case of robbery with violence, but it is not of an extraor dinary character, His Honor then informed the foreman how to act in endorsing the bills and examining witnesses, after which the jury were dismissed to their room.' TRUH BILLS, "■ True Bill* were found in the following cases : — Frederick Zank, larceny, -pup charges ; te Kopihe, horse • stealing ; j Tbomas W, Potjilton, four charges of ] larceny as a baileej and forging and utter- J ing; James Kershaw, breach of the Arms Act; Margaret Phillips, alias Mary Watts, ; larceny from a dwelling; James McCauley, larceny. LARCENY. ' Frederick Zanc, shoemaker, aged 30, was ' arraigned upon an indictment charging him • with the larceny of various articles of cloth ing the property of Wm.O'Brien. There were three other charges of a similar nature.. Prisoner pleaded gujUty oil all indipt racnts. His Honor, in sentencing the prisoner, said he observed from tbe calender that the prisoner was now suffering imprisonment on two charges of larceny, He was sorry to see a man who had once borne a good character in such a position, but looking at the numerous larcenies that he had perpe trated, he felt that he could not inflict a less sentence than two years' imprisonment for each offence; tho terms to run concurrently. BUEOLAKY, James Bloomfield, gardener, aged 56, was arraigned on an indictment charging him with breaking and entering, at Epsom. , Prisoner pleadea guilty. The same prisoner was charged with burglariously enterieg the dwelling hense of Wm. Morgan, at Isewmarket. A plea of not gnilty was entered. A jury of twelve was ep-panneljed, Mr Roundtree being chosen foreman, The circumstances having been detailed to tho jury ay Mr Hudson Wilhamspn, Crown Prosecutor, William Morgan was called, and deposed that he carried on the business of a saddler rf Newmarket, and resided on his premises. He went to bod at about 11.30 p.m. On tho night of February 28th. The window through which ingress was effec ted was not locked,'but was covered with a wire screen. On the night in question he heard a noise, and got up an_ struck a light. Hearing steps on the stairs he gave chate, and wa* inst in timo to se?,a mane legs disappearing

| through the window where tho screen had been. The screen had been taken out nnd placed beneath the window, outside the honse. He found the hat (prodnced) in the btdroont, George Fisher Morris, of Newmarket, deposed that he kept a boarding-house at Remuera some months back. He kn* w the prisoner, who stayed at hi* houso twice. He was there last some time about October or November, and left some clothes, includ ing coat, waistcoat, trousers and hat be hind, Witness had them in hia possession about a month. The hat (produced) which was found by Mr Morgan, was the one left for s*me time at his house by the prisoner. To the prisoner: I have kn* wu you since last Christmas twelve months. I have not

brought my books. Prison «r stated to His Honor that when the cose was before the Police Court he bad

applied that Mr Morris should produce his books. Mr Macdonald promised that the books should be produced at the Supreme Conrt.

His Honor said the prisoner should have applied for a subpoena, To the prisoner: I identified the hat (pro duced) immediately I saw it. There is a pieco of the periodical you used to buy— the "Bible Standard "—in it now.

To the Bench : The prisoner came and paid me what he owed two week* after he left, and I gave him up the clothes and hat

Charles Morris, son of the last witness, aad Detective Sullivan, gave corroborative evidence.

Aaother witness, named Blataan, did not appear, and his recognisances were for feited.

Prisoner addressed the jury in defence. He referred to an article in one of the newspapers, entitled, the "Shadow of Justice." He applied the case quoted there to himself, and complained that Mr Sergeant-Major Pardy had prajudlced the minds of the public against him, in the Police Court, by stating that he was a comrade of Plummer. That statement he characterised as untrue. The prisoner referred to the fact that the people he was stopping with at the time bad not been brought into the Conrt at all. Tbe elder Morris bad sworn positively to a hvt i,which he had not seen ior four months, and of which he could know but very little. In conclusion, tho prisoner reminded the jury that having already pleaded guilty to a charge of a similar natnre, their decision was a matter of life and death to him,

The jury rsturned a verdict of " guilty.' In answer to the question whether be had anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon him, prisoner stid he was discharged on a previous conviction about tiro years ago. He got several jobs, and eventually was employed as gardener by Mr Murdoch. Alter the lapse of four mouths, tbat gentleman was in formed that he had served a sentence in Mount JCden. He want there and copied tbe description and conviction, and returned, showing the paper to him (Bloomfield), whom he discharged without a moment's notice. He end*a vtnred ts obtain employment from ' Hi* Honor bnt failed, and when in the em ployment of Mrs Walson the police came on a false charge, and he lost the situation. They also arrested him several times on charges ot stealing g*od* that he hod pawned. He complained that the conduct of the police had driven him to crime. His Honor poiated out that prisoner had undergoac a previons seatonce, and ap peared to be incorrigible. The sentence of the Court would be seven yean' imprison ' ment with hard labour, the sentence to rnn concurrently. FORGING AND tnTERIHO, Thomas W. Bonlton was arraigned on fonr separate indictments charging him with forging aad uttering and larceny as a bailee. Prisoner pleaded guilty, and was sen tenced to ten years' imprisonment with hard labour. LABCHNT PROM A DW-LWHCJ. Margaret Phillips, alias Mary Watts, no occupation, aged 4s, married, was arraigned npon an indictment charging her with the larceny of a gold watch, pitce of silk, aad chain from the dwelling house of George Frederick Brimbleconab. Prisoner pleaded not gailty. Brimblecombe was called bat wa* mot present. Laurite Solomon, pawnbroker, carrying on business in Auckland, had seen the pri soner in hi* Slop during the latter part of October. He gave her a pledgo ticket for the watch and chain produced, which the priaoner pawned with him. She gave tbe name of Absolom, of Otahuhu. He want to the gaol in the beginning of March, and recognised the pritener amongst live-and twenty other women. Brlm.lecombo wa* then called, aid this time he answered.

Hi* Honor informed the witness that it was only through the leniency of the Crown Prosecutor that his recognisances of £100 were not forfeited.

Mr Brimbleceraba apologised, stating that he bad been present all the morning, and did not think the case would have been called so soon. He then deposed that he was landlord of the Queen's Hotel, corner of Kyber Fats and Symonds-street, The prisoner lodged in his house four days, and after she left he missed the watch and other property which she waa charged with stealing.

Detective Strathern deposed to having arrested the prisoner. Catherine Absolom, a married woman, of Otahnhn, deposed that she did not know the prisoner, aad had never authorised her to pawn a watch in her name.

The prisoner, in answer to the nsnal questions, expressed surprise that the pawn broker could claim to have recogciied her after the lapse of four months, when he said the only time he saw her was tor a few miqutes,

A veydiet of" Not gailty " was returned, and tbe prisoner was discharged,

LAKCBNY PROM A DWILUNQ,

James McCaulay, alias McCullough, was arraigned npon an indictment charging him with the larceny of a watch and chain from the dwelling-bonse of Joseph Worms, Upper Queen-street, Prisoner pleaded not guilty, Sarah Jane Worma, who bad known the prisoner off and en for the last ten years, deposed that on the 23rd January last she asked him to take the number of ber watch and the maker's name. She had lost some money and was also afraid of losing the watch, He took the number on a slip of paper. She had ooca sion to go ont to the back, and when she returned, the prisoner and the watch and chain were gone. (Left sitting.)
