Neale, a porter in Covent-garden market, war charged with stealing a large quantity of orange., cocoa-nuts, pars, and other knit, the property of his employer. The prisoner war in the smite of Mr. Hughes, • fruit salesman in Covent-garden market. He was engaged as • day porter, and had been in Mr. Hughes's employ upwards of twelve months. Large quantities of fruit had been found 'Miming from the sleep, which clad not be accounted for. Yesterday morning Mrs. Hughes was in the step and saw the prisoner take away • basket of cocoa nuts and determine' upon watching him. The prisoner returned shortly afterwards, and while Mn. Hughes was engaged with a customer, he took down gibs. of grapes and took them sway. Toe plisiner returned again in about two hours afterwards and went down into the cellar and brought up a basket of oranges, and placed it outside the shop. He spin went downstairs and brought ups basketof cocoa nuts, and pieced them outside with the other basket. Directly afterwards Mrs. Hughes missed the prisoner from the shop, and another salesman told het that the prisoner was off with the baskets containing the fruit. One of the market beadles ' went in pursuit, and took him in custody with the property in hie possession. The prisoner said nothing in his defence, and was remanded. WORSHIP-STREET. DARING ROBNIEY IN • SHOP. Elk» Cotton was charged with stealing fifty yards of calico, the property of Mr. John Jacks in,Lmen-draper, High-street, Shorediten. G. Trio, City police officer, No. 26, said that on Mor.day evening he was in plain clothes in High-street, Shorediteh, when he observed the prisoner at the doer of the prosecutor's shop attempting to take away the calico, which was in a pile of goods, and which was fastened by a chain. She delibewely removed the chain, and took away the calico. She went away with the goods, when he stopped her at a few yards from the shop. He brought her back, and **property was identified by the assistance of Mr. Jackson. The prisoner, who said that she bad two children who were stareir g, was remanded. A WHOLESALE POISONER. The Court of Arsizee of the department of the Ar ddehe has lately been occupied for the. • days In the trisl of an elderly man named Damonlin, of Limony, canton of Ser. tikes, arrondissement of Taunton, for imisoning members of his family. Thirty yews ago till- man entered Into the en vies of a widow named flacon, a woman of some little pro. petty. lie soon established a criminal connexion with her, and after a while married her. She gave him a union of her property, but he treated her with great brutality. A child she had by him died shortly after linh, and two of her children by her first husband also died in tender years; it is now supposed that all three deaths were caused by poison administered by the prisoner. In 1839 the prisoner toot a mistress to live with him in the same house as his wife and family. This exasperated the wife—daily quarrels ensued, and at length the prisoner got rid of her by poison. The circumstances of her death left no doubt of this, but it was not until 1648 that the law authorities heard of the affair; and though they then prJposed to exhume the body of the deceased, they could not Aid the pre** spot where it was buried. After the death of his wife, Dumoulin lived on bed terms with his son, on account of some dispute about money, and the »- fusel of the son to many the father's mistress. On the 26th of June, 1846, after supping alone with his father, the son was seized with violent pain in the bowels, and with all the symptoms of having been poisoned. The father, thinkieg he wee dying, knocked up the cure of the village. The priest, horrified at the state in which he found the young man, administered an emetic, and this had the effect of saving him. After that time the young man was repeatedly attacked in the same way—indeed, in the MOW of a raw months he had no ha er than six attacks ; but, having always been able to vomit, he was saved. That these attacks arose from poison administered by the prisoner there , is now no doubt, but this was not suspected at the time. The prisoner himself persuaded his son that he was bewitched, and he took him to a woman who passed sea sorceress, who predicted to him his early deatb, and persuaded him toles,. to his father the property to which he was entitled. To se- I cure the reelisanon of the prediction, the father took Ike precaution of purchasing • quantity of arsenic. In Decem ber, 1846, the eon of Dumoulin's deceased wife, a young man named Pereoton, had a pig killed, and the prisoner was noticed kassing about the trough in which the blood fell. lie knew that black puddings were to be made, and that his son was to dine with Perroton and his family. lie himself Wu asked to dine else, but he declined on some vague pretext. After the dinner all the family of Perroton, and young Dumoulin, were seized with violent pains in the bowels. Si: other persens in the village, to whew the puddings had been seat, were seised in the same way, and it is probable that all thnelpereons, twelve in number, would have perished .if timely remedies Lad not been applied. It appeared that at this time Dumoulin had conceived the atrocious design of poisoning all the Penmen family, as well as his LO3, as, by their deaths, he would have come into all the property. One day in March, 1847, he went to Perroton's house, and during the temporary absence of Madame Perroton, threw some poison into the pot in which the soup was boiling. Madame Perroton and two ,of her children partook of the soup, and were immedi ately seised with pains and vomiting. Tl:e same evening llumoulin waited for his son and his son-in-lsw, Perroton, and to their surprise strongly pressed them to go to his house to eat soup,runk but they of the refused soup,. Th was tak e next day ill, s Per roton, having d some en his wife and children had been. In the night young Dumoulin also was attacked in the same way, after eat ing some food which his father had prepared. In De cember, 1847, young Dun oul in was again seized with all the symptoms of poisoning, after drinking put of • glass of water presented by his father ; on this occasion ha pressed his father to drink the re mainder of the water, but the latter displayed great re pugnance said only raised the glass to his lite. It wall with difficulty 'that young Dumoulin succeeded in vomiting, and after that he recovered. On the 2nd of January, 1848. he had a violent quarrel with his fatherand having by this time suspected that his father was poisonieg him, he announced his intention of leaving home. In the night of the 11th of January he was affected with a violent thirst, and having risen to procure drink be fouled a battle containing wine on the table. Of this wine he partook, and immediately after he was wised with the meat horrible pains. Ile rushed out of the house like • madras°, but presently returned and took to his bed, where he suffered dreadfully for some time. The nerd was called in: be found the tongue of the young man quite black, and the latter told him that the attack had com menced after he had taken the wine. On this the curt ob served that Dumonlic, the father, who had heard what wen said, quietly removed the bottle which was standing on the table, and replaced it by another. This aet confirmed the suspicion which had previously entered his mind that the young man was poisoned by his father. lie went home to see by a medical book what should be done in a We of poi soning, and daring his absence the father introduced a no tary to the ton, and caused him to make his will. In • conversation which ensued during the father's absence be. twesn the son and his brother in law, the former said that he knew that he was poisoned, and that his father had dif ferent descriptions of poison secretes in a certain hole. On the return of the eats this statement was repeated to him. The priest Int of all applied an emetic, and took the pre caution of peignoir g what was vomited ; he then went and took the poison from its hiding-place ; after which he had an analysis made of the matter thrown up by the young mat, and, on learning that poison existed in it, had the father arrested. In addition to these terrible facts against the prisoner it was proved that, when in gaol, he had con fessed to • fellow prisoner that his intention was to kill lie son. When the evidence was concluded the president asked the poisoner if he had anything to say. He answered in the negative, and at the some moment, drawing forth a knife, bared hie breast, and plunged the weapon into it. Blood having heandistely flowed, a dry of honor was uttered by the auditory ; but it appeared that the prisoner was only scratched. The jury declared him " guilty: and the court condemned him to death. Oa entering the prison the pri soner slain attempted to commit suicide by knocking his head against the wall, but without success. nation Te:mph STASTSVICS OP VIE UNITED STATES GENERAL POST-ortlCe.—We glean the following statitties of the Ame rican General Post.oWce from a late Boston paper.

THE MURDER AT BRISTOL On Monday afternoon the coroner for Bristol, J. B. Orineon, Esq., commenced an inquest at the Hops and Anchor ion, RedclifThill, in that city, on the body of Wil liam Braund, the young man who on Sunday evening was shot by s boy named Disney, and of whose melancholy mur der paeiculan appeared in the Exprou. The inquiry excited considerable interest, and a large number of persons crowded the inquest room to hear the promedingc. The tiny Dancey was brought from the station by the po lice, and was defended by Mr. Ayre, solicitor. The coroner having opened the proceedings by detailing the facts of the murder se they bad been detailed to him , and by esplaining to the jury the nature of the enquiry upon shah they were about to enter, the jury proceeded to the Brie= General Hospital, in Guinea-street, where they viewed the body of the deceased man, and had pointed out to them the pistol wound. Upon their return to the inquest room several WiUll4lOll were examined. Hoary Coggan deposed that he knew the deceased, who worked in the employ of Mr. Gillet, wine and spirit mer chant, of Radc liff street. He was about 19 years old. Wit ness woe labia company all day yesterday, together with a ' young maa named Horgan. At half-past al o'clock, when crossing Bedminster-bridge, they saw the prisoner Hussy, and ahoy t amed Collies,leaping an iron post at the corner by the SOISOISttAOII6II beer-bOUSO. As they passed them Horgan mid to Hammy, " Over it;" upon which the boy t ur ned reuad, and began calling Horgan bluhberhead," and other offensive names. Braund, witness, and Horgan went along the eat, the boys still following them, and calling them different abusive names. As they were going along the New Cut, by li.dloy's-crement, Collins pulled out a life preserver and shook it at deceased, who said if he did ant be quiet he would tell his mother of him. With that Collins shook the life-preserver in a threatening manner, and as Braund went to seize hold of it, he made a sweep round with it and " 'cragged " his mouth with it. Braund then tried to take the life-preserver from Collins, and &struggle ensued between them. Denney I then pulled cut a pist )1 from his bosom, and threatened I three or four times that if Braund did not let Collins go he would sheet him. Collins and Braund at this time were es the ground, and es soon as the latter had got up and stood upright, Macey presented the pistol at him and shot him. I He then ran away, and witness , pursued him. A gentleman tiled to stop him, and he flung the pistol at him, and kept en tanning. Witness still pursued, end overtook and mewed him et the corner of Mr. Brown's tie-yer3. Wit sass then returned to assist the deceased, who was in the arms of Horgan and some other parties, bleeding very mach and quite speechless. They carried him to the General Hospital, where he was pronounced to be dead. Braund, witness, and Horgan were quite sober at the time. S. Browne, a mmistrate, of Bristol, in front of whom Ileum, in Deverashirebuildings, the murder was perpetrated, deposed that his rttention was called to the struggle, which be saw from his window, and he gave a similar account of the menznittal of the dreadful crime. When Heaney fired the pistol, he was not more than a foot or two from the de ceased. Did not we deceased make any offensive gesture or attempt to strike the boy. He walked up to the de. mimed and shot him instantly. The pistol did not go off by &widest, but was fired by the boy. Mr. Thos. Charles Cornish, brother-in-law of the last wit ness, at whose house he happened to be dining, similarly described the fatal occurrence. Whea the deceased rose from the ground he appeared anxious to disengage himself from the struggle, and turned away his face from her oppo neat. Witness joined in the pursuit of the prisoner, and assisted in taking him to the station-hones. While he was on the way to it the prisoner said " I suppose I shall be 'cragged." Witness, upon coming up to him, had remarked that he would be keened. He further said, in the station house, that he did not know that the pistol would go off. He also said something about it being half cocked. Ho also said he hoped that a surgeon had been sent for. In the struggle no hostility was manifested towards the boy by deceased. Mr. Samuel Browne, jun., also described, in similar terms to the other witneeses, the strugglo with the boy Collins, and subsequent death of Braund. .1 ust before he fired the prisoner put his hands down between his knees, but whether to cock his pistol, or for what purpose he could not say. Edward Horgan said—H• was in company of Braund and Coggan when they saw the prismer and Collins leaping the post. Witness said " Over it," as the prisoner was about to Imp it, upon which the prisoner and Collins be came very abusive, and followed witness's party, using in sulting expressions. Witness ran atter them, and upon Collins beginning to spar at him, gave him a couple of slaps. Dewey thee came behind witness and struck him in the face, and Collins pulled out a life preserver, and Dancey a brass barrelled pistol, andjassumed a menacing attitude, as if they were going to attack him. At this time Braund and Cs ggan tad walked on. Daum presentekhis pistol at wit. ass, and said, " Now, then, come on ; I'm ready for you. I'll have you." Witness replied, " I'll talk to you tomorrow, and not liking to be seen in a broil on a Sunday. left them and raj -fined his companions. Dancey sod Collins followed them, abusing them and jeering at them, till the corner of Brown's.rtw, when they all halted. Collins again flourished the life-preserver, and upon Braund threatening to tell his mother, and trying to taas It flea him, the fetal struggle ensued. Dancey pulled out his pistol and threatened to shoot Brained, and witness tried all he could to intercept him, but in vain. Decay wet on one side, put the pistol between his legs, and cocked it, a nd then rushed up to the deceased and immediately fired. Dece ase d immediately staggered and the blood rushed from his mouth. During the whole time nothing of an offensive or irritating kind was said or done by deceased towards the prisoner, who seemed determined to shoot him, and, had it not been for witness, would have dont so before. The inquiry was now adjourned till Wednesday. CHRISTMAS FARE AT THE ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, °RAT'S Iww-noaD.—The cenvaleecent patients in this excel lent institution were regaled yesterday with neut beef, plum pudding, and porter, by order of the weekly bcard. A STRANGE HISTORY OP A LONATIC.—About three years ago, a man, 35 years of age, of week intellect, and in a destitute state, was found wandering in the neighbourhood of Hashoiden. lie was incapable of giving rely aesoant of himself, and was ordered into the work house, and every meats wee at the time employed ley ad vertisement and otherwise to find out where he came fees. Me remained in the workhouse about two years, when the relieving officer, having reason to believe he woe from Manchester, went over Were with him, and by some emus or other they became separated, and the cam was obliged is return to Haelingden without him. In about three weeks afterwards the man igen made hie ap pearance in the neighbourhood of Haeliagden, but bow or by what means he got there was again inexplicable. He was re eoguleed by some person, and was again brought to the Hr workhouse. It is surprising that when he left the workhouse he had threepence to vopper, wrapped lc in some rags is his pulivt, and on living eninined on Ws Men, the same amount of money, wrapped in the same me, wee again found upon him. During this last week a servant F 1, who has lately come to reside at Beelingden, saw the man, and at once identified him. and gave informs ti is to the authorities that hiansole was S hire Greenwood. ant his father lived at Sowerby-bridge, Yorkshire. A letter was written to his father, which he received oa Satur day lut, and on the following day he arrived at Haslingd ost en. Toe father states that it is three years since his son was l, eat that, after advertising his ab.enoe and travelling some hundreds of miles in search of him, he had lon g since g iven up all especeation of ever meeting with him again. The son did not recognise his father for some time. On the same day the father and son set off on foot from Hashogdon, to take the train at Todmordta for tilowatry-bridaa—Bkeekbwre Standard.

The line crosses the Scarborough turnpike- et. road at this point on a level, where the latter passes etat of 9 Matton to the adjoining parish of Norton, with, of course, , the usual gates, and a gatekeeper in attendance to close and "" open them as the teethe on the line or road requires. The so mail train from Scarborough is due at Matton at 6 o'clock, to shortly before which period a man wee observed lingering to. about this thoroughfare, which is one of the leading ones of 25 the neighbourhood. He entered into conversation with the 210 ,„ gatekeeper, asking when the train was due, which line it ," came upon, and questions of that nature, when at length the se gatekeeper signalled its al preach, and warned the deceased 40 Ito remove himself out of danger. Instead of doing so he end- to duly cried out that his object was to meet the train, that he r. as w tired of life, and darting forward threw himself across ," the rails in front of the approaching engine , which passed over; him, severing his limbs. and scattering them about es the line in venous directions. The act was witoessed by 12‘ several persons, one of whom endangered his own life by an 10 ineffectual attempt to rescue the deceased. The progrese of t?, the train is slackened at this crossing, in consequence of Its 11 1. Proximity to, the station, but it had sufficient impetus 9 7 r to effect the object contemplated by the deceased, in os consequence of t destr uc ti on . nd determined manner in which OS las courted his The deceased was named Si. Skelton, aged about 21, the son of a labourer living at Old w„. Melton, and bad for some time been employed in repairing 7 § ,. the roads in the vicinity. The only presumed reason for his Ay committal of this act I. that he laboured under an inter- 50 nal disease of a peculiar character, and which he cortidered, St. as perhaps it was, incurable. The mother of the deceased is 20 f senant and charwoman in several familes in the neighbour- I s ' hood, and happened to be engaged at the house of a gentle- 21 man not far from the scene of the catastrophe, when a ; 12 messenger came in on other business, detailing in the we- t. sence of the mother, but without knowing who she was, the particulars of the incident which had happened to a persoo of the name of Skelton. Thelpoor woman at once felt snared r o , that the deceased was her can, a fact which was shortly is afterwards confirmed by the arrival of her husband. MURDER OF A PUPIL, AND SUICIDE OF MS St. Turoz.—The Lyons Gazelle of the 19th of Dicember re- r ports an extraordinary and very mysterious cue of aimons. tion and suicide. The crime was perpetrated at the Chateau d'Arcy, near Marcigny, in the department of the Saone-et- 00 Loire, and the details are sufficiently dramatic to obtain for it a place in the annals of "celebrated crimes." M. de St. 1 .,.° C— the owner of the manor in question, which he in. 1e id throughout the year, had en only son, an interest- 1 0 lag child 9 years of age. He was not only handsome, but 20 very precocious ;he was the pride of his parents, and their 10 opulence rendered this heir of their fortunes doubly dear. 1 0 In order to avoid the pain of separation, and to prevent 11 their child from being contaminated by the pestilent moral 3 4 atmosphere peculiar to schools, in which a hireling is allowed 30 to usurp the plane of the parent, M. de St. C— had Iris 10 son educated at home. The chi d loved his master, and pro- 10 fited by his instructions. Oa Wednesday, the 12th of Ds- 30 cember, the child left his mother for the purpose (u he tl alleged) of copying a theme. At 3 o'clock the dinaer-bell rang, and Madame de St. C— ordered the master and lo pupil to be summoned to the board. But, ales! what a 50 spectacle did the school-room present! The unfortunate 115 child lay stretched on the floor, and the tutor also, the latter in a pool of blood. The wretch had cut his own et throat after having murdered his pupil with a bludgeon. as The deepen of the mother and the grief of the aged father on his return in the evening laden with Christmas presents St. for his child we will not attempt to depict—the task is too 23 painful. The detestable deed was, it appears, the result of a long and premeditated design. The monster of an assassin had been treated with the utmost kindness by his patrons, el and enjoyed every comfort. An infernal envy et the pros perity which he witnessed around him prompted him to to plot an act of fiendish vengeance. He could not brook the 20 superior fortune of his employers •he was disgusted with ?,5 1 , his own subaltern part , and Sat an accordingly prompted LI him to perpetrate a deed the object of which was to resins to hopeless misery the objects of his rage and jealousy. The guilty ruffian was too cowardly to await the consuming' SO of his crime, and" breathed his sullen soul away," a re- 60 20 pauseless and h -abandoned suicide. 20 ESCAPE OF TWO BURGLARS FROM DOTER 20 POLICE•STATION.—WaIker and Ayres, two men who were 20 under committal to Maidstone gaol to take their trial for 20 burglary at Swingfield, escaped from Dover police-station on 10 Tuesday morning about five o'clock . They e ff ected their C escape 'by breaking through the ceiling of their cell, which u , was composed sae evly of lath and plaster. After making a hole large enough to enable them to get through, the pri soners crawled along the coping, between the ceiling of the cell, and the outside roof, and broke through the lath and plaster composing the ceiling of the adjoining cell, into whioh they got down. This cell had been left unhooked for the purpose eel drying it, the rain of the previous day hung made it very damp, and utterly unfit to plate a prisoner into. After this they opened the station-house door and made their escape. As yet no clue is known of their lurking place. —Doper ClWOMielf ATTEMPTED ESCAPE FROM CARNAHVON COUNTY GAOL —On Thursday an attempt was made by six prisoners to escape from this gaol. A person named Junes Healy led the way, by scaling the wall of the ward, which is con nected wilt the boundary wall at nht angles. He poems . plished this by lashing logether thew long tidsh haitalei, on which he climbed. He soon snceeded in reaching the outer wall, which is only about eight feet higher than the other ; and by means of a rope tied to the pro jecting spikes, descended into the adjoining premises. Fortunately, however, Mr. Dixon's (the gaoler) sae picions having been excited during the day, he bad ordered the turnkey to keep a close watch upon the primer nen; and when a second party named Griffith was prepar ing to make his descent, the turnkey entered and gave the alarm. Mr. Dixon immediately procudid to the other side of the wall ; and, having secured Griffith, went is march of Healy, whom he eventually found sougly situated under a flight of stairs leading from the garden to the parapet of the town walls, resting his body on g ".22:21e width projected from the prison wall and thetered from view by the lath work.—Calwaroces Herald.
