      GOOD , THE MURDERER . The trial of Daniel Goi > d for the murder of Jane Good , or Jones , took place on Friday ,.. iii the Central Criminal Court . The pluce was crowded to the invasion , of the vi-iy Justs' seats ; several women , even young ladies , -ware among the auditory ; and the number of 'barrister ' s , was" great ; Outho bench were Ljrd Donninn , Mr . Baron Alderson , Mr . Justice Coltmap , and the Recorder ; and by their sine were the Duke of SusseXj the ChevalierBunserf , several Aldermen , and M >\ John Dinniatoun , M . P . ¦ ¦ . ¦ ¦ ¦ ' ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ : '¦' ¦

      With Good , Molly hi 3 reputed wifo was placed at the bar ; which both the prisoners appror . chad with a firm and confident step , and both pleaded " Not Guilty . " Moily Good Was removed ; and tho trial of Daniel proceeded . It was conducted by the Attorney-General ; whose statement , with tho evidence which followed , added litliu of interest to the . facts already known , only that tkey were marshalled in a more skilful order . LyrtiaSusant-ah Butcher now appeared to admit that her intercourse with Good bad been more familiar than she formerly confessed . Thomas SrJes , the / waiter at a

      public '' house at which Good called after the murder with Mary Good , overheard him say that she " wou ! d not be troubled with that ¦ . - ' ¦ - any more . " Tho son was brought into court , but he was not examined , apparently from a fpirit of forbearanco . Mr . Doaue , for , the defence , reminded the Jury that the case against tbe pri-oner n stud entirely upon circumstantial evidence , and that there was no proof that the woman had not destroyed herself ; while there was a tct : il absence of nil probable motive . The Attorney-General waived his right of reply .

      The Chief Justice , in summing up , likewise reminded the Jury of the necessity of caution in judging on circumstantial evidence . That the deceased met with her death by Violence appeared to bo clearly proved by the medical witnesses , who . declared thoir opinion that cle-i'h was occasioned by the snreraneii of the windpipe , the carotid artery , and the jugular vein * and thuMhe buoy was irtbtantiy drained o-t , blood . If she had destroyed herself , it was most improbable tiir . t a nnn with ¦^ honi she brni loog been living-oil intimate and friendly ttri :: s , instead of calling assistance , would proceed at on . i . 'o to rfswiifjiiiber the body . The Jury retired at half-post seven o ' clock , and r < : turned into court at five minutes past eight , when the foreman vronouiiced n , verdict of ?• Guilty . "

      L mi D ? nman than , having put on tUo black cap , adurjsscd the prisoner as follows : — " Daniel Grotl , you have been found /; uiity anon the . clearest-. evideece . of ii-most f"ul and « -ic ! : e o doubt ' that it is owisjf ; to the lRfhil ^ Dnce of your iuclinationa for one woman .-ifler another , that ' 'b . e'i'i ? tired of -the unhappy deceased , and feeling that you could not enjoy to its fullest txt-T . t the fresh attachment yr . u had formed , that yr-u resoived upon destroying the unhappy woman who w ; ts the formr-r object of your affection .

I took , those articles , as well sis her clothes , to Woolwich on the Wednesday following , and gave them to Susan Butcher .

      EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF SUPERSTITION . At the adjourned sessions for the county of Essex , held last week , a gips ^ y , named Louisa D ' ollon , aged 30 , was indicted under very singular circumstances lor stealing two sovereigns , three half sovereigns , tiiteeu half crowns , forty two shillings , and five sixpences , from Miss Hannah Guiver , at Ugley . Mr . RodwL'll , who appeared . for the prosecution , said the circumstances of this case were of a singular and extraordinary nature , and be should call attention to a few iacta which , unless they were proved by evidenca in a court of justice , they would hardly beliftve . the prosccutris was a widow , keeping a shop afc Ugley Green , aiid sho had a daughter who was the principal witness iu the c-tse . At Eaater last she was in n bad

      state of health , wliether from unrequited love or not he did nbtbnoiv , when tho prisoner , got access to her and indiiceii her to believe that she was spell-bound ; but promissd that on payment of a sum of money ,, and by performing ceitaiu mysterious and magical arts , she shcukl by rslievcd . In this way she obtuined 2 s . the first tune ; ami she then said , if 10 s . more were , given her sho would consult a bock . It was given , and she then handed hssr two pieces of paper , stuck across with pius , which sho said would have too effect of removing the syeli . She called again a few days after , -when she produced a hdg , and asked to have filled with salt , and she aide ststed it v / cui . d be necessary for & sum of money — £ 7 or £ S—to bo pui into the bag . The young wciiian bruujbt £ 2 ov £ 3 dovrn stair 3 , and put in to

      tae oag , but tea prisoner said it would bs impossible to cou . pkto tho cure without £ 7 or £ S ; and she then brought down that sum of her mother * . Ifc was at -fir . it distinctly stutuu . that she was not to take tho monsy awi ' . y , but it ' . vas arranged that , the prisoner shouLl tifce the k ; g an , ' , lii-iiig it back at eleven o'clock tho wxt cHy , audit shv did net the young woman was to get a sharp knifa and cut her ithe-gipsey ' s ) . throat . She , howevtr , forgot to come back , but was afcerwavus apprehcudcil 10 or 11 miles off . Possibly , in the ccurso of the bvidu . ee , tacts -would come out thut would cteiiti a . smile ; but thty must recollect that weak and nervous people—not the strong minded—were selected for these purposes ; ami the law was for the protection of the weak in mind as well as those who were weak in body , against the strong .

      Hannah Guiver , rathsr a good-looking young woman , 25 yeais of age , was thenexamined . Shesaid—I live with my mother at Ugley Green ; she feeeps a small shop . On the 26 th of March , on a Saturday , .-the ; prisoner came to the shop , and told me she would tell me a few words that would be a benefit to me ; I gave her is . , she had a book with her , and she looked into it , after which she caid if she told me by the book I must give her another Is . ; I gave it her , and she then said I was uadc-r aspell ; bat if I gave her half a sovereign she could and : would break it in nine days . ( Laughter . ) She then gave me a piece of foolscap paper with sosnothing on it , two pins sticking across one another , whicli I was to burn at the nine days ' end . She then left , but she called again on the 1 st of April , when » iu& said sho bad been working the things beuut : fully for me . ( Loud laughter . ) I said : ' well . ' On the 4 th sho called again , and , taking a bag from her pocket , asked for a banifiijl o £ salt ; that was in the keepmg-rooiU i as sho said six-. j wanted to speak to me

      in private , and I took her out of the ahop ; I put the salt in . and she then asked me , to put as much gold as I could into the bagi which I was not willing to do at first , but she said she did not wish to take it outorthe bouse . I then fetched down two sovereigns and , three half sovereigns belonging to my mother . She said thut was not enough , and I could make ^ it up between £ 7 and £ 8 if I liked , on which I fetched down fifteen half-crowns , forty shillings , and five sixpences . I tied it in the bag , after which she said she must take ^ it till eleven o ' clock the next day ; when the apsll would be broken j she said she would bring it back by balf-past eleven , or I might get a saarp knife , and when I saw be ' r again ; I . might cut her throat-.

      -The examino . tionbefore the magistrates was pnt in .

" . She said it was , and she should not mind what she gave if sha could have him . She ( prisoner ) said she wouid ; do all she could * To for her , but she must have some money . She gave her same , bat she did not promise her the day or the hour she would carry it back . She was ill and ; very poor ;¦ tut she was wording round ; there to carry the money back . . ..--. ; .- . '' :. ; . ' . ' - ¦ ' . This w ; is the case for the prosecution .

      Mr . Dowlnig then addressed the Jnry for the prisoner . He said , if qnestions of this sort were to be . ma ( ie--fcu » jeots for inquiry in courts of justice , they would bo oecnpied vvith them every day in the year , for t ?; ere was not a day in which , persona vrho wete in love or in ill health , did not apply to the " wise woman"' for her advice ; but were those who went there to buy their spells and advice , finch as they were , to turn round and prosecute them for felony ? Could they doubt the object of the prosecutrix or her mothei was not the benefit ^ of the public at large , but the proceeding- whs a ^ sort of ptesanre on the prisoner or her husband to get tho money back . . This was nothing ^ mure than a girl going to a wise woman , who was supposed to have influence over Bupetnatutal

      affairs ; and though the law was to protect the weak against the strung , a ' person grown up to twenty-foui years ef ase , and conducting the business © f ' her parent , was not to be considered an idiot j and if she chose to pay a fancy price for anything Bhe was not to be protected by a criminal prosectitiori , because afterwards 6 ho did not . like her bargain . If a person , saw a whip in a window , and the tradesman insisted on having £ 5 for it , if he chose to give it , ad afterwards found it worth , only 2 s . 6 d . was the thidesman to be prosecuted as a criminal ? tosfc at the Strawbeiry Hiii sale—there were old things not worth sixpence , but persons were willing to pay enormous prices fiuv ; them to \ complete their libraries or curiosities , arid it would be hard

      on Mr . George Robins if when he went to make up his accounts , sdme of ' the '' noblemen should demand their money , , er prosecute him . Their present chairman had many bronzes which to an antiquarian were of great value , but which he ( Mr . D . j or the Jiiry might sot be disposed to value highly ; but cultivated minds enjoyed them , and probably when in Rome . be . - .. might have given j £ 5 Q for a small piece of brass , but he would think it uuwise to say , "If you do riot- give me my money back I will prosecute you- " Here this girl went to the prisoner , who performed very absurd things , but which she was willing to pay

      for , and was she now to turn round and ; prosecute her . as criminal ? . Sho was nob to turn . round and say , " I am not cured—your advice is valueless / and I will prosecute you . " What difference was there between this case and that of a medical man ? He came in : and said , " you must take my pills arid draughts , you must rub in my lotion , you must try my plaisters , " an » l they went on till their shelves were filled with bottles and boxes , aud they found themselves worse than they were before—( laughter ) --and then came a bill longer than that jury panel , which they must pay . ( Laughter . ) Yet did they ever heav of a doctor being called on to answer for this 1 That case was in fiicfc

      worse than this , because here the yoijng woman could exercise her own discrstion on the deception " practised upon her understanding ; but the doctor caxne and shook his head ,: as if there waa anything in ifc , felt the pnlse , looked at the watch , and practised all that mummery which : was usual when there was nothing more to do than to drive a road for his for « tone through the patient ' s bowels— ( laughterjr— and they bad npmeana of detecting . or judging of it , for they knew nothing of what he was about . . Here this gW , who was capable of conducting her- ' 'mother ' s business , had a full opportunity of seeing whether the advice was worth what she gave for it , and like a person who bought a thing at a fancy price , it was at her own

      risk . The girl confessed there was some unrequited love in this matter ; the gipsey saw tfle romance of early affection playing about the ruina of a lost heart— ( lnughter)—there was a smile of invitation ; and the young girl desiring the retnm of the wandtrer , looked to get : the shepherdess to bring him back to the foliJ . when all was to-be well . —( laughter . ) A ' young girl in love viewed everything in an ¦ absurd ' . Jight ; asd heve she called in the prisoner ' s aid , and was in the situation or" a person w-ho bought an ' -old inaau 3 cript not worth 6 d . at a high price ; or the doctor who did the patient no good ; it was aj mere piirchasa , and tte person was not guilty of felony who sold advice which m ? 2 Et be . valueless . : ; ' .

      The Chairman said , the only question was , wfeetbti the prispBC-r obtained tho money ^ feloniously- — vahsibti the takiag was with a felonious intention . Did tbi 3 woman at the time she went into the shop cook up this story to gt / c possession of the money felonious ' - ? There werf ) s-iVeral c : ises on this subject . There / was one in which a , puraon went to a coach-maker ' s , and said h « Wdnt-id a chariot to go into the North ; the coach-ni-. ikt ; r let him have it , and ho went and sold it ; that was a mere cloak to get possession of it , and he wa 3 convicted of tha feloiiy . There was another case iu which a person got possession of bank notes to change , but walked off and did not bring them back ;

      and it was held that that being a false pretence , there was a ftjlonious intent to get possesion of the notes It appeared to him that this case went all fours with that . The prisoner specially stated she would bring the money back—there waa no borrowing ; and it appealed to him to be a trumped up story of this ittgenipiis woman to get possession of the money from this young girl , who was suffering undei great mental anxiety .. The young girinright not be so clever as this woman , and he hoped ehe never would be , for she had notmade a good use of her talents . It appeared to him that the case came , within the description of larceny .- - ' . :. ¦ ¦ , ' . . - . - ' ¦¦ ¦ ¦ - ¦ . ' -.- . ' :. . ' ' , ¦ . : ' . ¦ ... ¦ ..- ' -..

      The Jury asked the prosecutrix whether , before sbe gaye her the money , the prisoner positively promised to bring it back ? The witness said she did ; The Jury found the prisoner Guilty . The Chairman briefi / addressed the prisoner , and sentenced her to be . ' Transported for seven years . " . The Court ordered tha money fouud bathe priaonet to be restored to Mrs . Gator .

The Coffee Rooms were ; fitted up for tho occasion , about fifty persons belonging to the band sat down to a neait ! y « dressed dinner , and enjoyed it with that feeling which Temperance can ao well bestow on her favourites . The town has been thrown into greatconfasion , in consequence of a . large body of masons having endeavoured to prevent men from Fethard of tbe same trade from working for the Rev ^ Robert Carey , who is building some anjall houses in the vicinity pf the town .

      TRIALS OF MOLLY GOOD AND RICHARD GAMBLE . . Central Criminal Cookt , Saturday ' This morning , at ten o ' clock precisely , Mr , Baron Alderson and Mr . Justice C . oitmau' tooktlieir s * sats upon the bench of the old court , and proceeded to take the trial of Molly Good . ., ' . . The Court was not nearso much crowded as on Friday , and the prices of admission tothe gallery were loweveo i it is sai < l , tu one-fifth " the price" that was demanded for the exhibition of Good . The Attorney-General , Mr . Adolphus , Mr , Wad dington , and Mr . Russell Gurney , attnded , onbehiilf of the Crown , to prosecute , and JVlr ; Baiiantino attcudnd for the prisoner . .. . . . -... ' . The Clerk of the Arraigns having read over the indictment , charging the prisoner with harbouring and comforting Daniel Good , who stood charged with the crime of murder , the prisoner pleaded Not Guilty .

      The Attorney-Gdneral , in addressing the Jury , said it was highly . important , for the ends of public justice , that people shouid understand the enormity of tbe offence whibh they committed in harbouring and secreting a party who had ' conimlt-ted ' so awful a criiu « -, ijs that of . muriler . It seenied that the prisoner at the bar had comforted and harboured the ican Daniel Good , who was yesterday found guilty of murder . " He understood the defence to be set up was , that the prisoner was married to the man . Daniel Good ; and , if such proof was adduced , then the law very humanely provided that a wifd could not be found guilty of harbouring the

      man whom she was bound to honour , love , and obey . He believed that the prisoner bad , many years ago , gone through a certain form w : fa the prisoner , but hyul not been legally married to him ; and she had lived with biiu for a number o £ yeK . ys . If , however , the prisoner had harboured Good under the sincere belief that she was bis wife , and bound to do so , he ( the Attorney-General ) did not feel it necessary for tbe purposes of public justice , to advise the Crown to prosecute . He had conferred with his Lt-amed Fru-ntls , and with the Learned Counsel engaged for tbe prisoner , and he believed sufficient had transpired between them to justify him in not offering any evidence 'against' -. the

      prisoner . Mr . Ballantine thanked his learned friends for the opportunity they bad offered him of laying some of the facts contained in his instructions before them , and for tbe liberal construction they had placed upon the evidence be had .-iiitonried to present on bebajf . " of . .. the prisoner btfore tho jury . It saved the prisoner the pain of a long trial ia a doubtful case , which in all probability , would have ended in a doubtful result . It was another proof of the spirit of forbearance which hid characterised this prosecution throughout ; and he mn « ere y thanked his learned friends fov the course which , in their better judgment , they had thought proper to pursue .

      Mr . Bavon Alperson then remarked that , as the Attorney-General had not offered any evidence against the prisoner , it wouid be the duty of the jury to acquit her . It had been truly said that a woman could not be convicted of a charge of harbouring her husband , but in the event of tha prisoner not having been able to produce evidence of her having been married legally , she would havo been placed in an awkward position , und-not ' ha-vo been c ; nsidered altogether : guiltless ; at the same time the court would have visited her with a comparatively ligbt punisbme&t , if it had been shown that-she'bad gone through a certain form with Daniel Good , which led her to believe tbat she was his wife ;

      and , actiug under that impression , had considered it her duty to comfort him . It was important that a wrong impression shoulil not go forth to the public thut , in aay future cr . se that niay arise , where tne ' eircumalancea Hiight in scmo respects be of a similar Jcind , that this court ' would- fail to iufiict a severe punishment upon persona who should bo provod to be guilty of so seripus on offence as that of interposing difficulties in the way of the police when tbey were endeavouring to bring to jubtice a party charged with a murder of so frightful a nature as that which had yeaterday occupied so much of their attention , and created so painful an -excitement in the public mind . ' ¦' ¦ ¦ .

      Tho Attomey-Goneral said , in fairness to the prisoner , he would stale that be beliGved a number of witnesses were in court ready to bear testimony to the >< ood character of the prisoner during the time she had lived for many years in tho neighbourhood of Siiitalfleldg . , . The Jury , under the direction of the Learned Judge , then acquitted tho prisoner . Mary Good was then arraigned for feloniously receiving three pieces of silk , the property of Jane Jones , otherwise Jiiue Good . The Counsel for the prosecution in this case declined to offer any evidence , and she Was acquitted . Richard Gamble was next charged with feloniously receiving three gowns , the property ol Jane Jones , otherwise Good , and also with feloniously receiving two ( shirts , tho property of Samuel Spicer .

      The prisoner when called iipon to plead , said , " I am not guilty of receiving the things , knowing them to have boen stolen ¦ " and in consequence of a like intimar tion from the Attornoy-Geuyral of the unwillingness of the Cry wn to prosecute , the prisoner was acquitted .
