The deceased was my wife. Her Christian name was Ellen ; she was 25 years old. On this day week, about 9.10 p.m., William Jackson, • labourer, working for Mr. Humphrey, came into my tap-room. He brought a gun with him. Edward Strudwick, Charles Cooksay, my wife, and self Irerl. there. Cooksay went across the room and drank with Jackson. He Bahl to Jackson, " You have got a large gun there • is she loaded !" At first Jackson said it was not, a nd th en that it wasloaded. Jackson requested Cooksay to put the gun down. Cooksay was lodging in my house ; he was quite sober. Cooksay put the gun to his shoulder and pointed it across the room at the opposite wall. Cook ie,/ then took it from his shoulder, and held it down and kinked at the lock. I was on the other side of the room, about three yards from him, and my wife sat on • ato.l ease by the side o f me . As Cooksay was looking at the belt th • barrel of the gun pointed towards my wife and ue. 11. said, " There is never a cap on it." I heard a click as if he cocked the gun ; at the same mo n ent almost the gun went off, and the charge sh.d peeled into my wife's legs. Cooksay held the Pin just above his knees, and across them when it %eat off. I am quite satisfied it was discharged by tan accidentally. Dr. Taylor was sent for, and he has attended my wife up to her death. She died about 12.30 oi Sunday morning. —The coroner told the jury that the ci.lence would not support any criminal prosecution a,oir i t either Jackson or Cooksay, and therefore they mull only return a verdict of " Accidentally shot." The ~,, ner addressed both Jackson and Cooksay, and repri -1,...4.1 them, telling them they were both equally cut. 1..1., the former for taking • loaded gun into such a place a time and allowing it to be touched : the other for n.kbs.ly and foolishly playing with such a dangerous "elan, and that he and the jury regretted that there was 1 4w which would punish them for their careless folly.— "'.

Janus Coleman, aged 13, appeared to answer a summons under the following circumstances: Mr. Bedford, superintendent of the London and North Western Company s police, conducted the prosecution. Thomas Davis, pointsman at the Primrose-hill end of the tunnel of the London and North Western railway,said about mid-d.iy on the 10th of June he saw six boys playing about on the top of the tunnel. Coleman put a piece of timber 19 feet lung, :; inches wide, and 2 1 inches thick, over the wall by the side of the tunnel. ?f it had not fallen upon a bush in its descent it must have gone upon the lines of metals. He had only cleared a train through the tunnel a few seconds previously. Both goods and passenger trains are continually entering into and coming from the tunnel. It was only the bush which prevented the wood from going on to the goods line. Witness added that the defendant was coming down the bank to throw a second piece of timber over, when he saw him, and ran off. lie was captured, and his name and address taken. Mr. Dedfonl informed his worship that there had latterly been a great increase of this sort of mischief, and the company felt bound to prosecute. He had now two cases to prosecute where stones had been thrown at driven and firemen. 11ne was thrown with such force as to cause a great indentation in the iron plate of the tender. If the fireman or driver had been struck there would be no knowing what sad consequences might ensue. The magistrate said the case must go for trial, and re manded the prisoner. SOUTHWARK. IMPUDENT RORBERY IN THE POLICE COURT. George Sheenan and Thomas Carpenter, rough-looking young fellows, well known to the police, were charged with stealing as. 11d, from the person of Margaret Sharpe, inside this police court. The prosecutrix, • married woman, stated that on the previous afternoon she attended the court as a wit ness in a case, and while waiting within the apace allotted to the public the prisoner Sheenan came and stood on her right side where her pocket was, and all of • sudden she felt a tug at her dress, and on looking round she saw Sheenan's hand come out of her pocket, sod some money dropped on the floor. The other prisoner who was with Sheenan picked it tip, and said , " That's my money," and was about to leave the court with it, when one of the summoning officers came up and prevented him. She then felt in her pocket, and finding all her money gone, she gave both the prisoners into cus tody. 'When she saw Sheenan's hand leave her pocket, she was sure he had some of her money in it, and she saw some drop from it. The magistrate asked her when she last knew her money to be safe. Witness replied that she had taken it out a minute arse and counted it, as a friend asked to borrow some. Sheenan here denied the accusation, and said that he dropped some mousy from his hand, and when the pro secutrix said it was her money, he said " No, it is not. Tommy, pick it up, as it is mine." Mary Gri ffi th said she was a witness in a case, and saw the prisoners plant themselves by the right side of the proisecutrix, and she distinctly saw Sheenan's hand leave her pocket. M'illiana Fenner, .57 M, one of the warrant officers, said he took the prisoners into custody when one of them handed him 2s. lid. which he said he picked up, and the other had three shillings on him. Sheenan said he had not picked the woman a pocket. The prisoners called forward two of their companions who swore that the prosecutrix was pulling her pocket. handkerchief out of her pocket when the money fell out. The prosecutrix was recalled,and in answer to the magis trate, said that she did not have a pocket-handkerchief or anything else but her money in the pocket at the time ; in fact, she had no handkerchief with her. The magistrate observed that there was not sufficient evidence against Carpenter, therefore he must be dis charged, but as for the prisoner Sheenan he would be re manded until Tuesday next to complete the depositions. Von , few days pass without similar robberies being com mitted inside the court. THE ACCIDENT ON THE LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER RAILWAY. LATEST PARTICULARS.--(TIIIS DAY.) The directors of the London, Chatham, Dover Railway Company will hold an investigation to-day into the causes of the above accident. There is a suspicion that tho points were not fastened tight enough, and it is supposed that the flange of the carriage wheels slipped between them and rolled on to the ballast before the carriages were thrown on their sides against the parapet, 24 feet of which fell into the Vauxhall waterworks re servoir. It was a fortunate circumstance that the train was going at the comparatively slow speed of 10 miles an hour at the time. There is an express order that all main line trains shall keep going at a slow rate of speed when they are on the Metropolitan Extension lines, and particularly alien they are crawling the bridges over and near the Thames. At the time of the occurrence a medical gentleman, who lives in sight of the viaduct where the accident took place, was looking out of his window and he saw a cloud of duet fall from the parapet. In less than • minute he per ceived two dark objects falling from the arches into the reservoir, which was fortunately nearly empty at the time. He then went to render assistance, and found that the dark objects were Mrs. Alger, the wife of a grocer, living at Windsor, and her little daughter Edith, a girl of 4 yeare of age. Although they had fallena distanceof 50ft. they were, strange to say, apparently uninjured, Mr. Sampson, the chief engineer of the Vauxhall Water Com pany, at once offered to place hie house at their dispwal, and his offer was accepted. Dr. Sutcliff ordered that they should at once be placed in bed and kept quiet. During all last night Mrs. Alger was very restless, and this morning s h e was i n a nervous state. Her system has received a severe shock. But the most serious case is that of her little daughter, whose spines injured. Mrs. Alger says, " All I know about it is that I felt the carriage oscillate dreadfully from side to side, and then I felt as if I was flying through the air. I saw the child flying, and I did not know what bad happened until I found myself in the reservoir. I then thought that all the carriages and the arches were going to come down upon us, so I got up." She was accompanied by her servant, Jane Marshall, aged 19, and the young woman had the baby, aged 1S months in her arms at the time. The servant was bruised and received a shock to the system. She is now under the care of Dr. Sutclitf. She was not thrown out of the carriage, but she was dreadfully shaken. It is stated that about 14 passengers were more or lees injured, but only one-half of their cases are considered likely to have a serious result. At St. George's H.:smite' ;11 a dangerous case, viz., that of a Chelsea pensioner named Robert Willis, aged 80 year., residing at Chialehunt. Ile says—l was in • third class carriage, and I felt all of it knocked to pieces. The floor ing tame out." Anne Bridges, aged 50, residing at Can terbury, another su ff erer from the accident, is also in the hospital.

Some of the British railway stocks have improved, the most important movement being inßrighton,owing to tome considerable purchases to cover speculative a des. Foreign bonds are inquired for. The somewhat more favourable tendency of the markets has hewn partly caused by the announcement of the chip ment of a further sum of 300,000/. in gold from New York for Europe.

The subjoined report on the market for Ameri= securities is from Messrs. Sntterthwaite and Co. : At the close of last week the London market for Ameri can securities was dull and inactive, but during the past three days the buying on oowinental account has been re sumed, and United States Government Bonds close trio, the 5 , 20's of 1862 being last quoted 73 to 734. The Bends of 1865 have been in considerable request, and the diler ence in price between them and the previous issue has sensibly diminished, the closing price being 711, to 71k. or $ per cent better than this day week. The announcement of the customary dividend on Illinois Central appears to give confidence in the undertaking, which we believe to be in a sound and prosperous condition the shares have im proved to 80 to 3. Erie shires have been largely taken on American account, and are last quoted 44 1, to $. Athritic and Great Western Consolidated Bonds have been dull, and close flat at 24 to ; the transactions have been on a more limited scale than usual, and the decrease in the traffic receipts for the two lint weeks in July has induced some selling. The following, on the rice market, is from the monthly circular of Messrs. Jackson and Till : - - - - • There has been a continued demand from the continent for floating cargoes during the month, resulting in • fair business (eight cargoes), at fully 3d. per cwt. advance from previous rates for Rangoon, but without change for Bassein and Arracan. At these rates the market has been cleared of all available cargoes, and to secure further early sailing ships still higher prices must be paid. The stocks of rice, both on the continent and in the United Kingdom, are exceedingly small, and for vessels arriving off coast for sale buyers can be found at extreme rates. The latest statistics of shipments, with the prices ruling at the rice forte, show no material change. On the spot very little business has passed, owing to the limited quantity on offer, and the indisposition of cleaners to buy, except for actual requirements, in face of the new rice arriving. Ten cargoes (eine* our last report) have arrived of the new crop, two of which have been ordered to London. We again repeat the opinion expressed in our last circular, that present rates will be fully maintained for the next month, and that we may even experience • slight advanc. The quantity afloat is 189,378 tons, against 200,773 tons last year (July 4th) ; the stock is 7,724 tons, against 15,138 tons. WEDNESDAY EYEEDIG.

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) HIT(HCOtk v. HITCHCOCK. This part beard case, which WWI expected to list the whole of the day, was settled out of court. COURT OF BANKRIJPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Hoiroyd.) IN lit .FORCE LTALL. This was an adjourned sitting for examination and dis charge. The bankrupt was a merchant. of 13, Leadenhall street, also trading at Hong-Kong and elsewhere in the east. in partnership with C. F. Still and G. F. Maclean. The account+ relating to the affairs of the firm of Lyall and Still, of London, show debts and liabilities to the amount of 76,4(fW. ; against debtors (Lyall, Still, and Co., Hong Kong), 73,1 4 441/. : and other assets, r.lB/. The separate debts of Mr. Lyall, amounting to 2,4001., have been paid in full. Mr. Lowrance appeared for the assignee and said that the bankrupt had been included in an adjudication which had been made against his partners in the foreign house by the court at Hong Kong. The bankrupt would probably be advised to get his discharge from this court before going out to Hong Kong. The transactions were of great mag nitude and Mr. Lyall, although desirous of assisting in the realisation of the assets abroad, felt that he ought first to be absolved from his allegiance to this court. Mi. Heed opposed on behalf of Mr. B. Liebert, of Man chester, creditor for 47,000 f., and asked for further time for inquiry. Mr. Liebert had forwarded goods to the bank rupt in London which he had consigned to the house abroad, and advances had been obtained upon them from several of the foreign banks. The transactions were of • nature calling for much further investigation. His Honour granted a furtheradjouriarnent with leave to the opposing creditor to examine the bankrupt at • private sitting. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) (Before the Common Serjeant.) THE BIGAMY CASE. !bury Co cooli,h, aged ILt, who yesterday pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with felonioualy intermarry ing with I:eorgiana Ann Knapp, his first wife being still alive, was brought up to receive the judgment of the court. Mr. Straight, who appeared for the prosecution, said he presumed the court had readthe depositions in this case, anti therefore it would be unnecessary for him to go into the fees. He must, however, mention that with both his wires he had obtained money and property, and from in quiries which had been instituted by Detective Sergeant James !lam of the l' division of the metropolitan police, it seems that his life involved VI long history of crime. He has been in the habit of advertising for ladies' maids, and making an appointment with himself, and then under pre tence of introducing them to the lady into whose service it was pretended they were to enter, he took them to an hotel when he treated them in a most improper and disgraceful manner, and obtained from them what money they pos sessed. The prosecutrix had also discovered that the pri soner had been convicted in France of a similar offence, and had undergone 15 years' hard labour in that country. The Common Serjeant inquired what had been the treat ment the prisoner had given to the prosecutrix. The prisoner produced and put in a number of letters which he bad received from the prosecutrix both before and after their marriage, and all these were couched in the wannest terms of affection. So far from obtaining money with her she came to him without • penny in her purse and without even a change of clothing. The Common Serjeant, without making any comment, sentenced the prisoner to 12 months' imprisonment. erg , Edward Gurney was brought op for judgment. This defendant, it will be recollected, was convicted at the last session for misdemeanour in having unlawfully attempted to corrupt the chairman of the Kensington bench of magistrates by a bribe of 40f. to grant him a spirit license for his beer shop, he having upon several other occasions made an unsuccessful endeavour to obtain such license. The Common Serjeant, in passing sentence, said that be believed the defendant was really not aware that he was infringing the law when he sent the money, and the jury had recommended him to mercy on that ground. It also appeared that he would lose the pension to which he was entitled u a superannuated police-consfable, and taking these circumstances into consideration he thought the justice of the case would be satisfied by his ordering him to be imprisoned for five days, and to pay • fine of 201. to the queen, and to be further imprisoned until s u ch fi ne was paid. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) BOW43TREET. ALLEGED ROBBERIES BY A BARMAID. Martha Yardley, aged 2:73,; res pee ale-laing young woman, was brought up before Sir Thomas Henry, charged with stealing two half-crowns, the property of her master, John Hine. John Hine, victualler, stated that he keeps the sign of the Camden Stores, at 23, Store-street, St. Giles's. The prisoner has been in his employ as barmaid ever since the 10th of January. From that period witness has been very dissatisfied with his takings, finding a great decrease from the sum he has always been accustomed to receive. This caused him to susp ect the barmaid, and, last Tuesday, he called in a constable and pro ceeded with him to the Oxford (another public. house) where they marked a lot of half-crowns, shillings, and sixpences. Witness placed them on the shelf of his own parlour that night. Yesterday evening he Galled on the constable again, and they both proceeded to search the prisoner's boxes and drawers where they re• covered two of the half-crowns which they had marked the previous night. . . Si; Thomas Henry, on examining the half-crown said that the marks made on the money were mere .crutches, such as might be found on any ordinary coins. Such marks would hardly be aullicient to satisfy a jury. Witness—The money was all marked in the presence of the inspector, your worship, and he himself even help e d me to do so. Robert Carter, 187 E, deposed that be was called in by Mr. Hine and assisted him in scratching with a knife and pin some marks that wouldenable them to identify the money again. Last evening he was called in tosearch the prisoner's boxes. The two half-crowns were found in her drawer. Two receipt forms for deposits of 25/. each in the London and County Bank made by the prisoner, a N. Bank of England note, 4/. 10s. in gold, 125. lid. in silver, a gold watch and chain, three gold rings, and other articles of jewellery were found. Witness then took her into custody. Prisoner said she knew nothing about it, and that she did not take the money. Mr. Hine came forward, and, in answer to Sir Thomas, stated that the girl's wages were 254 a year with board and lodging. Sir Thomas said 50/. was a very large sum for a barmaid receiving 251. a year to deposit in the bank, especially as she had been in the place such a short period. The Prisoner—lt Is all my own money. I was eleven months at " The Feathers " before I came to Mr. Hine s. I had 251. a year there also. Previous to that situation I kept a public-house myself. Surely I must have saved capital there. Sir Thomas Henry—l can't help thinking it is rather suspicious for you to deposit so large a sum in the bank. It is not usual for persons in your position to have so much money. It is So case for a jury to decide, but I shall remand the prisoner to enable inquiries to be made at her former !situations to ascertain if she had received or saved such a large sum whilst in their services. The prisoner—l can give a good account of being in pos. session of the money, but shall not do so now. Prisoner was accordingly remanded. WORSHIP-STREET. xuancßors OUTRAGE AND RODBY.ETiY THE FrntErr. Patria: Quill, Thomas Newman, Mary Walker, and Clara Johnson were charged with a violent assault on Mr. George Stout, a wholesale glass and china dealer in Court street, Whitechapel-road, and stealing limn him a gold watch and chain, together with a quantity of silver money. The prosecutor (who had evidently been subjected to great violence, clots' of blood being mixed with his hair and its stains en his clothes, while his throat evinced on either side the impress of finger marks) feebly deposed—About half-past 1 o'clock this morning I was in company with my two brothers pro home, when a woman accosted us. I c jir ec i l i i 2 and said, " We want nothing to do with you" at that instant I was seized by the throat from behind. By Mr. Ellison—l don't think that an arm was passed round my neck. I believe it was pressure from the hand. I was flung down. I remember that I was kicked by seven or eight persons over the head, face, and body, but I recollect no more ; on recovering the police were lifting me up. I have five wounds on my bead, many bruises about my body, and have lost a gold watch and chain, wi'h, I may say, a pocket full of silver. 1 was taken to the police station. Ido not recognise any of the prisoners. Two brothers of the prosecutor (both young men) gave partly confirmatory testimony, but did not stop when prosecutor turned round and spoke to the woman, consequently did not see him grasped as stated. Quill was observed kicking him, and then to run off towards the New-road ; he could hay, been caught but for the interference of Newman, as it was his cap only remained in the hands of one of the brothers, but subsequently it served to identify him when LATEST SPORTING INTELLIGENCE (BY TILEGIAPFL) LIVERPOOL MEETING.-(THIS DAY.)

SCHOLEFIELD.—To the facts men tioned yesterday in our columns in reference to the lamented death of Mr. Scholefield, we have now to add a few particulars. We stated that on Monday evening Mr. Scholefield attended in the House of Commons as usual. He afterwards dined with a Birming ham friend at the Reform Club, and there seemed to be in decidedly improved health. On Tues day morning, up to 10 o'clocic, he was quite as well as usual, when be was seized with a sudden attack of para lysis ; and this, supervening on disease of the heart of some standing, brought his life to a close in the course of a few hours. After the first few moments of the attack, Mr. Scholefield never recovered consciousness. His chil- dren (Mr. Clement Scholefield and Mrs. Meredith) together with his medical attendants, were present at the death bed. The funeral is fixed to take place on Tuesday next, at Kensal-green Cemetery, near London—that place of in terment having been selected from the circumstance that Mrs. Scholefield was buried there. We are informed that it is the wish of the family that the ceremony should be privately conducted ; but there is a strong desire on the part of Mr. Scholefield's late constituents that the town should in some manner be represented, and this may pos sibly lead to some change in the arrangementa.—Birmmy ham Post. A Nannow ESCAPE.—On Monday afternoon the porter at the Cemetery Gates station (Hull) as well as one or two bystanders, had • very narrow escape. As the train leaving Paragon station at 4.45 for Withernsea approached the Spring-bank station the gates were closed upon the carriage road by the porter, who then went on the platform to assist the passengers. As soon as the porter's back was turned a mis chievous lad, about nine or ten years of age, opened the gate on the west side of the line. The porter's atten tion was called to the open gate, and he ran to close it, as it was projecting over the line. The train was then coming along at • rapid rate, and was within 20 or 30 yards of the gate. He made every effort to close it, but just as the train came up he saw he had not time to do so. He had barely time to step upon the platform when the train dashed into the gate, shivering it to pieces and taking a portion of it away on the buffers of the engine. Hail the porter been • second later in stepping upon the platform, be must have been killed. Several persons who were standing near the gates watching the train pass very nar rowly escaped being struck by the splinters, which were thrownaboutin every direction.—Eastern Counties Ile raid. SERIOUS CASE OF SHOOTING NEAR NOTTINGHAM. —At the Shireduill, Nottingham, ye s terday (Wednesday) an old man named Thomas Truswell, aged 61 years, was brought before the sitting magistrates on the charge of shooting Charles Gunn, aged 18, at the village of Gotham, seven miles from Nottingham. It appeared from the evi dence of police-constable Brown that on Monday night last, about ten o'clock, Gunn and several of his oorupanions were in the street annoying the prisoner by throwing stones at his door. l'riaoner thereupon came out of his house and pursued the young men. Failing, however, to come up with them, he fired his gun, and the charge en tered the body of Gunn in various places. A surgeon's certificate was produced, stating that upwards of fifty shots had entered the body, and Gunn was not able to appear. Fatal consequences are not anticipated. The prisoner was remanded until Saturday. WOOLWICH, JULY la—The whole of the avail able troops in garrison, comprising the Royal Horse Artil lery, field batteries, and the Woolwich division of Royal Marine Light Infantry, assembled on the common this day at 11 o'clock, and occupied upwards of two hours in the complete details of • field-day and sham tight, which is stated to be • rehearsal to • grand review which will take place in the presence of the Viceroy of Egypt and other distinguished visitors. A JACKAL AT LARGE.—For some time past con siderable depredations have been committed among the poultry and young pigs in the neighbourhood of this town, which have been by some attributed to the incursions of master reynard; and a week or two back, about 9 o'clock, a young man named Wagstaff, living in Southgate-street, when on his way home, observed an animal which he supposed to be a fox, and somewhat injudiciously made an attempt to capture it, when it turned upon him and seized him by the hand, biting it completely through the palm. A considerable amount of inflammation ensued, and he has been quite incapable of using the hand ever since, but is now recovering. The animal was in fact a jackal, which bad escaped from the premises of Capt. Hon, of Fornham, and we understand that, after having been on a marauding expedition in the neighbourhood for some time, it was abut a few days since by • gamekeeper.—Bury Gad Nonsid Post.
