"As the testimony ot the witnesses we re j not contradicted, nor their credit i in ! peached, that evidence might be con sidered as containing the necessary facts on which the issue must be lound. That the deceased lost bis life bj ihe i unski'ft!l treatment of the prisoner did not seem lo admit of any reasowah.e doubt ; hut of Ihis pointlhejuiy were to judge . Before Ihe Monday evening 'receding the death of Loved, he had by profused sweats, and by olten repealed dose of emetic powder, been reduced very low. u this state, on that ev ening, other doses of this Indian tobacco were administered. When the second jorlion did not oj.erale, j.roerly because the lone of his stomach was destroyed, ihe repetition of Ihern, lhat they might act a a cathartic was followed by convulsion wttijiossof reason, and death. ' But whether this treatment, by which Ihe deceased lost bis life, is or is not a feloneous homicide was the great question before the jury. "To constitute the crime ef murder, with which the prisoner is charged, the killing must hnve been with malice, either express or implied. There was no evidence to induce a belief that the prisoner by this treatment intended to kill or injure ihe deceased ; and the ground oi exj.ress malice must tail.
