The evidence on the part of the Crown.

been committed.„ Mrs. McLean is a very
delicate young woman, the wife of a ret-
epectable farmer, and had been recently :
confined at the time of the offence. Tho
perpetrator of the. outrage called at her
house, ehe being alone, and milted her for ei: 4..

from him he rushed upon her, choked her

Hems Alabama, where he claims he was ' •
connected with some travelling show. . The
prisemer did not evince much emotion
when being sentenced, though it was seen
