resulted in a verdict of \u201c Wilful Murder\u201d against Green, who has been committed to Jail to take his trial at the next Court of Queen\u2019s Bench.Green also reported to some parties that he was up the Magog the night previous to his wife\u2019s death.Both stories appear to be untrue.Augustus Green at the inquest, said\u2014Yesterday afternoon I left my house and went to Len-noxville, and left Lennoxville to come home about two o\u2019clock this morning, and returned home about three o\u2019clock this morning.I found my door fastened ; I rapped, and my boy Johnny opened the door and said my mama is dead.I lit a candle, and found my wife dead, lying across the foot of the bed.Her head was nearer the foot than the head of the bed, with her clothes on.Her feet were hanging over the edge of the bed.She was cold, except one side of her cheek.I immediately went for assistance.I then went to Mr.John Ker\u2019s for some candles, it must have been half an hour after I returned home, till I was at Mr.Ker\u2019s.After getting the candles I went to my bouse and lit one of them.I then went for Mrs.Molloy and Mrs.Paige.When I left for Lennoxville my wife was as well as usual.I only saw one man while at Lennoxville, and I did not know him.I did not go into either of the taverns.I was in search of a man by the name of Henry.There was some whis ky in a bottle in my house when I left home when I returned there was a little left.My wife is given to drink I had been drinking when I left for Lennoxville, but was perfectly sober when I came home.I never knew her to have any fits since she left Montreal ; she did have one or two fits in Montreal.John Green, son of Augustus Green, states\u2014 Is going on eleven years of age.Yesterday I went to school in the afternoon, and on my return both father and mother were at home.tt IL, u Father was at home all the evening, also mother.! mated They had no candie.I went to bed first, and mother after.I was awake when mother come to bed.Mother did not take her clothes off.She laid partly across the bed Father was lying upon the floor.Father got up and got on to the bed, laying across my mother\u2019s breast.His head touched my hips.I asked father to get off from mother two or three times, and told him he would smother her.He replied, don\u2019t bother me.I think he laid upon her about half an hour.Father got up and lit a candle and told me that mother was dead.I then said, I told you you woqjd smother her.He answered, I don\u2019t mind you told me so.Father told me not to tell M ¦.Clark how mother died, but to say that he was out all night.E.D.Worthington, M.D., sworn, says:\u2014I have examined the body of Mrs.Green.I have beard the statements of John Green, and believe that the statement made by him of the way his mother died are borne out by the state in which we found the body ; and I am clearly of the opinion that the deceased came to her death by some means other than natural causes.Statement of

York, Oct.28.Our army in Western Virginia continues to be actively employed.Brig-Gen.Kelly attacked Romney on Friday night, after a march from New Creek, and completely routed the rebels, taking some prisoners, three pieces of canuon, and all their wagons and camp equipage, with a very trifling loss on our side.The rebels retreated towards Winchester.Information reached the Government yester-doy that the rebel army in front of Washington has been divided in expectation of an attack by our forces at other points.A large body has got e to Leesburg,where Gen.G.W.Smith commands, fearing a renewal of the attaek by Gen.Banks\u2019 column, and an immense force has been concentrated at Norfolk.It was supposed in anticipation that our naval expedition was to make a demonstration in that quarter.The main body of the enemy is still at Centrevilie.\u2022 Along our lines there was no change yesterday.A despatch was received in St.Louis yesterday from Gen.Fremont,dated from his Head Quarters near Homansville, stating that his guard, headed by Major Seagoyne, made a dashing charge upon a body of Rebels 2000 strt ng in their camp at Springfield, and drove them from the town, and after planting the national flag on the Court House, withdrew to a reinforcement which was approaching to join him.Fremont\u2019s Guard,who made this charge, numbered only 150 men.Fremont states that his advance would occupy Springfield on Saturday night.Lieut.Porter, of the Powhattan, reports that she arrived at Maranham, Sept.24, only 5 days after the Sumter left.The latter had cruised for 2 or 3 days at the mouth of that harbor to overhaul the brig Maria, expected from New York.The Governor of Maranham treated the officers of the Sumter with every courtesy, and supplied her with coal, but was unwilling to do the same to the Powhattan.In entering Maranham the hunter got ashore, lost her false keel, and when she left was leaking.A \u201c Secesh\u201d traitor named Lowler, arrested in Ohio as bearer of despatches to \u201c Secessia,\u201d endeavored to make his escape from Hotel de Lafayette yesterday, but was foiled in his attempt by the sentry.St.Louis, Oct.28.We are gratified to learn from J.H.Wade, President of the Pacific Telegraph Co., that over 200 private messages passed over the Line the first day it was opened, and that messages continue to come in at both ends fast ; thus indicating already that it will soon be necessary to put up one or two more wires to meet the urgent wants of the commercial public and the press.Fort Monroe, Oct.27.The great expedition has been delayed by a prevalent gale.Some refugees from Yorktown state that the rebels are in considerable force in that vicinity, and that there is an apprehension of an early attaek by the Federal\u2019troops.There is a large fleet of transports at Point Comfort, destined for Washington, unable to ascend the Potomac River.NEW YORK MARKETS\u2014Oct 28.Flour\u2014Receipts 43,613 bids ;
