THE MURDER ON SAFFRON-HILL. t- Serafine Poleoni, a ferocious looking Italian of about 33 years of age, was plated at the liar before Mr. Knox, charged with the wilful murder of Michael Hai , ringtoe, by cutting him with a knife. He was also charged with feloniously cutting and wounding Alfred Itibbeek and George Bannister. A brief account of the occurrence which led to the above charge was given in our columns yesterday. Mr. Thomas Wakeling appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Inspector Potter, who has charge of the case, was pre sent to watch the proceedings on the part of the police. At the solicitation of the magistrate, Mr. G. Goering at tended as interpreter. Mr. Wakeling said the prisoner was an Italian, and lived close to the Golden Anchor public-house, Grail Saffron-hill. He had ((mealy insulted the landlord, and was turned out of the house some time before. On Monday night • lot of Italians got up • disturbance in the honey. The prisoner rushed upstairs, knocked a woman down, and stabbed the decreed. He Lad previously stabbed two others, one of whom, it was feared, was at the point of death. The deceased made • statement at the hospital, as did the ether unfortunate man. Those statements be pro posed to submit in evidence. They were se follows : "My name ia Michael Harrington.

RESPITE OF ONE OF THE LIVERPOOL MURDERERS. —Thomas Linden, *moot the two men convicted at the last anises of the murder of Mllirtlty.at Liverpool, has bees reepited. The fact was communicated to Captain Gibb, the Governor of Kirkdale Gaol, yesterday morning by a letter from the Home Secretary. It will be remembered that Linden, ll'Cartby, and Brown, each of whom lived in • brothel, were drinking together in • public house, and went into the street, where en old quarrel was revived, and Linden and Brown attacked M'Carthy savagely. Brown bed a pistol, the barrel of which be forced twice through the orifice of M'Cartbre eye into the brain ; and both Brown and Linden struck and kicked the usfortoo.te man repeatedly. It was stated in the evidence that Brown's wife beat 111'0u-thy about the head with a porter bottle while be lay on the ground insensible. In consequence of the injuries inflicted with the pistol M'Carthy died. Mr. Cobb, the solicitor who defended the accused, is about to forward a manorial to the Hon's-office on behalf of Brown. The day at present filed for the execution of Brown, atcl also of Ellis Green, the man zonvicted of the murder of his sister-in. law at Tosteth Park, is Saturday, the 7th of January. - ---,- FATAL GrN ACcIDT2CT.-011 Monday morning last, a man named John Hughes, who in joiner, living in Torteth-park, Liverpool, went out of town with a double barrelled gun, for the purpose of shooting birds. He went through Garston, and on his way stopped to listen to the band of the local volunteers, wbo were performing in the principal street. A crowd bad collected, and as Hughes mixed with the people, by some means his gun went off. The charge entered the abdomen of a little girl named Agnes !('Millen, sin years of age, and she was so seriously injured that she died immediately. Hughes appears to have been holding the gun horizontally, nod to have been very careless. He was brought before the county magis trates at Liverpool yesterday, and remanded until after the inquest. * CRYSTAL PALACIL ONIt SHILLING DAY.

THE DOUBLE EXECUTION AT STAFFORD. Yesterday morning, at eight o'clock, Charles Brough and Richard Hale were executed in front of Stafford Gaol for the crime at wilful warder. The former, who was only twenty-four years of age, murdered an old man of seventy-four, named George Walker, at Bigoall Hill, near Audley, on the 27th of July last, The poor old man was a brokeudown farmer, and lived in • hut on the verge of a farm of about 120 acres, which he bad held for many years as • tenant His hermitlike life was not forced upon him by necessity, as he had well-to-do frieods, who were willing to support him ; but he preferred his rode domicile, with a wooden tressed for his couch and hay foe his bed, procuring a scanty subsistence by cultivating a small piece of waste land, oo which his hovel stood. On the night before the murder a relative had given the old man half-a-crown, and he bad also in his possession at the time an old silver watch, which he had purchased from • gamekeeper mimed Obery, who had chalked up the number 145,177) on a beam in the hovel. When the murder was discovered the old man was found la iog at the door of his hut with his skull fearfully fractured, evidently by the spoke of a cartwheel, which was found in the hut with blood sod hair upon it. It was subsequently ascertained that Brough tried to pawn the watch at Touren two days after the murder; and upon being taken into custody and charged with the commission of the crime be made the following statement to a policeman :—" I took the watch from the old man. I'd had • quarrel with my father, and he struck me, and 1 left the house and went to the hut to get • sleep. The old man came to the door but would not let me in, and I struck him with a piece of wood on the head. I don't know if I knocked him down, but I did not think of killing him. He began to call out and I hit him again. I then struck a match and took the watch from him, and left him lying there. It was about midnight. I did it myself ; nobody was with me." The other evidence, coupled with the coo. tension, left uo doubt of the guilt of the criminal, and Mr. Justice Myles sentenced him to death on Tuesday, the Gth instant, without hope of mercy. The other criminal, Richard Hale, was convicted of the murder, at Casty, of his illegitimate child, Eliza S:llitoe, aged ten years, in which he was aided and abetted by Cecilia Biker, his paramour, who, though sentenced to death at the same time as Hale, has had a reprieve until she is delivered of the child cf which she is at present pregnant. The evidence proved that Hale was in the habit of beating the child. On the 20th of July last it was miming, and some days afterwards the body was found in a gravel pit, in • state of great decomposition, with a handkerchief tied tightly round the neck, her throat having been cut. The evidence of • man, :lamed Jones, who saw the child with the culprite, Hale sad Baker, on the day she was missed, and who had withheld his evidence both before the corner and the magistrate, clearly proved the came, and left no doubt on the minds of the judge or jury that both the man and woman had perpetrated this cold-blooded murder. Throughout the whole of Sunday great numbers of people assembled in the vacant space in front of the scaffold, watching the progress of fixing the barriers. In oddities to the fact of its being • holiday season, yesterday wee the great " Gobey" fair, for hiring servants, sad that, of course, added materially to the multitude assembled to witness the horrid spectacle. Neither of the culprits went tc bed daring the night, merely lying down for a brief spaced time. The Rev. Mr. Vizi coat remained in prayer with Hale, and the Rev. Mr. Ent man attended to Brough. Both the unhappy men seemed penitent, but Hale persisted to the last in denying his guilt of the crime of which he was convicted. Brough made a full confession (as already mentioned) of having murdered the old man, and acknowledged the justice of his sentence. The erection of the scaffold was not completed until seven o'clock, at which hour the cross beam was fixed. At ten minutes pat seen Major Thoroeyeroft, the high sheriff, and Mr. It. W. Hand, the under-sheriff, proceeded to the poL Smith, of Dudley, was the executioner ap pointed in this instance to carry out the last senteace of the low. Having been taken to the pinioning-room, Hale and Brough were led in. and submitted to the usual pro cess of pinioning. Brough was brought out of the hospital, when he had been in consequence of his illness. They were both quiet, and apparently resigned during the proms. Hale repeating a prayer aloud after the chaplain. A very few minutes sufficed for this preliminary duty of the executioner, and as the prison clock struck the hour the pinioning was completed. The funeral knell was wended, and the burial service read as the prone*. aim moved towards the drop. At the foot of the scaffold Mr. Vincent besought Hale most earnestly to confess his aims, if he was guilty. The condemned man, however, adhered to his original statement—that he was innocent. On mounting the last step of the ladder leading to the scaffold, Hale slipped and fell forward, being evidently is • state of great nervous agitation. One of the warden helped him up, and the culprit, repeating prayerful OA. ciliation for Divine mercy and forgiveness, took his place beneath the drop. Brough, who had followed, was not so loud in repeating his prayers, but apparently quite as earnest as his wretched compacion. Hale's words were "Lord Jena, receive my soul," " Pardon all my sins," and other pious exclamations were heard at some distance from the place of execution. He continued praying aloud until the drop fell, and all was over in this world. The ropes having been adjusted round the necks of the miserable men the signal was given, the bola withdrawn, and both died with out a struggle. After hanging the usual time the bodies were cut down, and will be buried in due course close to the spot where the body of Palmer, the poisoner, was interred. The edpolice and other arrangements were all that could be , and although the crowd eat by DO means so large as had been expected, it was exceptionally drunken, dis graceful, and uproarious. SHOCKING DEATH PROM STARVATION. A painful inquiry was held by Mr. John Hum phreys Middlesex coroner, last evening, at the Duke of York Tavern, King's-road, Houiertos, respecting the death of Mary Hale, aged 04. . . . . . The jury, baring been sworn, proceeded to view the body of the deceased, which lay in the room where she had bora Marred to death. Upon enteriog the small back routs at the top of a respectable-ha:Mies house. No. 16, King's-terrace, King's-road. they found it destitute of fur. %item, but more than ankle deep with ashes, and with • heap which it was explaiced was composed of old rags and newspapers, and bad formed the bed of the deceased. On • narrow and rieketty table lay the ghastly remains, or rather skeleton of the deceased. A few dirty rags that had been her clothes were thrown over the body, but they were too scanty to cover her nakedness, and the holies could be seen starting through the skin, which was of • dark yellow colour. There were no cooking utensils, &e., in the place; two broken plates which were found were covered with earth from • broken dower-pot, and could not have been used for months. The deceased bad not, it was stated, let anyone into her room for 18 months past, doubtlees in order to hide her mosey. As a juror es- Em eed ic i k. t, ." the whole scone was horrible, and made the Martha Harrison, 16, King'aterrate, Homerton, said that she wa• • lodger in the house where deceased lived. Hemmed had lodged there eighteen months, and about four years in the belt house. She had bees • servant, and had earned her own living for forty years. She was • single woman. Witness was out at work daily, and therefore she did not know much about the deceased, bat she believed that she used to go out chariog for • few halfpence when she could get it to do. It was very irregular —certaiely not Mere than two or three days in the week, and she could not have got lid. a day at the outside. When she wee out witness believed she got something to eat, but could not say if she had anything when at home. She was very tea/eyed, and she used to keep her outside clothes very clean and neat. She was thinly and poorly clad. She had no clothe. fit for the weather. Witness saw her lost on Wednesday ; on Friday she was missed, and her room entered. She was dead on the floor. There was no bed, but rags and all manner of things, old papers, fic., in the corner. An old broken chair and • table were there, but no other furniture of any kind. Her sister was comfortably off. She was stewardess on board the Queen's yacht, and she paid the de ceased's rent. Mary A on Wright, another lodger in the same house, said th►t she could not say if deceased had anything to eat at home. She sometimes said to witness, " I should like • bowsprits." Witness would then, if she got any, put • few us • plate and leave them outdid.. deceased's door. De ceased would cane and t•ks them, and go iu and lock her self is again. Mr. William Harbin, 1, King's-road, said that he believed what he gave the decease,' was her principal support. She used to come and clean the place for a few hours on Satur days, and he gave her Is. and her food. She had good qualities and was very honest. His wife used to g ive her gowns, but she latterly became so badly dressed that he could not have her come to his house, and be told his wife to pay her without coming. Twelve mouths ago he applied to the parish for her, and she was allowed two weeks' relief. Then they wanted her teenier the house, and as she re fused ahe got no more. The Coroner said he supposed the jury had seen posh a Sight in their lives before ; he could only hope that they might sever see inch a one again. There did not seem to be any ground for blaming the sister of the deceased in the matter. She bad paid the rent for the deceased, and even if she were written to by Mr. Harbin she might not easily have believed that deceased was really in such frightful circumstanoes. She appeared to have done all she could. The jury returned a verdict, '• That deceased was found dead iu a certain room, from the mortal effects of cold and starvation." CHRISTMAS IN THE CORONER'S COURT. —ln the . lists of the Liverpool borough corooer's court, yesterday, 1 there was a startling array of fatalities. No lees than :10 deaths requiring iovestigation bad been reported between I Saturday sod Monday eight. Of these, two or three had been calmed by drowning, one or two by accidents in the streets, four by hurtling, and similar casualties ; 15 of the bodies bad been found dead, and three were uokoown. The coroner was of opinion that 26 °Ply required the atteotion of a jury ; and of these will be gone into this May (Wednesday), when the usual eases will probably have increased the total to sornethiog above 30.

This case has been before the court on several occasions, and it appear. from the evidence that Mr. Inspector Potter, the acting inspector of the G division, having reason to suspect Goldstein of being concerned in some cloth rob beries which have lately taken place, searched his premises at 38. St. Pancras-road, where the cloth in question was forted. The three other prisoners were apprehended at a public-house in John-street, Goldenaquare, charged with stealing the cloth. Cloth to the value of 401. wee identi fied as being the property of Mr. Terry, 54, Lambeth-walk. A charge was made against Goldstein, under the Bankruptcy Act, of concealing goods from his creditors, but it was not sustained. A former conviction was proved against Har rison, and Inspector Potter said at the trial he would be in • positwn to bring another charge of robbery against Strettoo. The prisoners were committed for trial _ _ SOUTHWARK._ Jame. Brv s to, a hawker, was brought up by Brickleer, 67 td, charged with committing • murderous assault on Ann Bradly with • poker. Brickleer said that about two o'clock that morning he was called to a house in Kent-street by • man named John Bradly, who told him be believed his wife had been mur dered by a man in the neighbourhood. Ile asked him where it was. and he pointed out the house, which was closed up. He knocked at the door, and being refused admission he went to the back, and was compelled to force his way in, when he saw the prisoner, and Bradly pointed him oat as the man who had assaulted his wife. He accordingly took him into custody. The magistrate asked whether he saw the injured female? Bricklear replied that she was not at her house. Some of the neighbours had removed her to the hospital. He pro. needed there and ascertained that she had received a severe wound on the heel, and that she was is a precarious state. The Magistrate asked if he knew how the assault was committed ? The officer replied that be understood the prisoner used a poker. When he took him into custody the prisoner admitted that, and said that be was attacked by the lot, and he used it in self-deleoce. . . . In answer to the charge the prisoner said that a lot of people bunt into his house end attacked him, and be thought be should have been murdered. Ile took up the poker oolr to protect himself. The Magistrate told him from what the officer bad stated be appeared in • serious position. He should, therefore, remand him until Saturday next. Mar , ' An, 11..rrisod was charged with assaulting and threatening a young woman who attended as a witness in • trifling ease of assault. As she was leaving the court the prisoner rushed at her, seized her by the hair of the bead, and struck her a severe blow on the face, at the same time threatening to bolt murder her. Mr. Burcham told the prisoner her aoudad vu extremely bad. and he should take care to protect all persons coming forward as gentlemen in this court. He accordingly eels teoced her to one month's bard labour in Wandsworth House of Correction. The prisoner, who seemed rather surprisedat the decision, wee then removed by the gaoler. TERME& Mary Jane Welk, a young woman, the wife of a mechanic, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with wilfully and maliciously breaths' fire panes of glass in the house, No. 6, Mandell-street, Poplar. . . . . Anne Harris, a 'Single woman, stated that she lived with her sister at No. 6, Roodell•street. On Monday at twelve o'clock she went to • drawer and wound op her gold watch. Two hours afterwards she wanted to use her watch; in fact, she intended to wear it. On going to the drawer where she had left the watch it was gore. She charged bar sister and the prisoner with stealing the watch, and threatened to give both into custody if it was not forthcoming. The mi. goner said she had sever taken the watch. le the course of the day the prisoner went out, and her husband followed her and said, "My dear, allow me to put a pin in your shawl, it is open , and 7ou will catch cold." The ruse succeeded, and while the prisoner's husband wax pretending to adjust her shawl, he took from her bosom the missing gold watch and chain. r. Partridge—She is charged on the police-sheet with breaking windows. Whams— Yes, she broke my sister's windows hat night. We forgave her the robbery.

THE LEGAL VACATION.—The offices of the COM moo law courts will not be re-opened until Thursday morn ing, and there will be no judge in atteadance at the judges' chambers until Monday, the 2nd proximo. LOST is THE S'ow.—A melancholy discovery was made last Wednesday in a wood about two miles die tact from Major Gordon Duff's mansioo at Drummttir. It appears that Major Duff and party were roe-hunting in this wood, which is not a very great distance from tbe farms of Caobenheed and Maine of Towiebeg. A roe was observed to make out of a copse, which occasioned • postal cry to fire. Mr. Charles Chiller, head . gamekeeper to Major Duff, im mediately tired at the frightened animal. Oa turning ratted he stumbled upon sometbieg of a yielding nature, from which he had partially shaken off the snow by the suddenness with which he had come in contact. The game keeper at once saw that he Lad stumbled op the feet of a human body—the limbs having been divested of their l i gooey covering by hie cooing again: them. The body I was that of a woman rather under the middle stature (about sfeet 3 MA's), and supposed to be about 40 year. of age. The rennin.' of this poor wanderer had evidently lain there for three weeks or a nmatb —at least such was the opinion of those who saw the body. Decomposition hod tot taken place t, say great extent, save on the feet, ! winch, not brio' so thickly covered with snow as the other parts of the body, bad begun to exhibit symptoms of decay. She was poorly clad, having only a windy petticoat, stays laced in float, and an under garment on her body. This last.mentioned article of apparel, as well as the checked "slop" lying beside her, afford some clue to the poor wan derer's history. On these things were marked the letters, " G. City P. H.." which no doubt mean the Glasgow City Poor-house. NVe know cot whether it is a practice wills the Glasgow parochi authorities to allow the paupers to leave with the house clothes upon them ; if not, then it is certain that this woman, who has come to such an untimely end, must have loft unknown to her legal guardians. Neer the body was • small basket, with a half urine, of tobacco and an ounce of tea, untouched, just as they bed been carefully tied by the merchant who supplied them. The medical gentlemen were moat careful in their ex uninatioo, and the verdict, which they eventually pronounced was " Perished from exposure." The stomach was found quite empty, save a little water, and the digestive organs were in a very bad state. One or two people in the district remember • woman, attired in a similar beggar'. garb, cal ling about three weeks previous, evidently making it her vocation to beg from door to door. Except some articles of attire, however, little recognition could be made, as no one in the quar terr can speak with any certainty of ever melee the deceased before. It is the general impression that the poor wcman bad lost her way on that stormy Saturday about three weeks ago. She must ; have wandered on, is the teeth of the blinding storm, until, unconsciously, she entered the wood which crowns the brow of a mountain to the north-east of Drsmmuir Castle. There, perhaps, it the rain endeavour to reach the open country, she bad plunged deeper into the wood, and having wandered till benunibed, or unable. from want of sustenance, to pro ceed further, she had lain herself down under the branches of the yew tree—from whence her voice, however shrilly it might pierce the drifticg storm, could reach no human ear —and there, alone and mimeo, with the cold snow gather iog over and around her, the poor wanderer had passed away to another world.-11., nth!, Express. ALARMINGths•CREENVE AT A LIVERPOOLTHEATHL —Au occorreeee, happily unattended with serious conse quence., but which shows the necessity of basing ample means of 'gem front places of amusement, took place on Monday night at the Adelphi Theatre. The house was crowded in every pert. About half-past 9 o'clock, while the pantomime was being performed, en alarm of fire was raised by some one in the pit. The greatest excitemeet im mediately took place amongst the &adieux*, and a large number of persons made for the doors. The crushing that ensued was terrific, and several persons were trodden under foot and injured. The gallery was packed with a number of young parsecs, and on the alarm Wipe given titers was a terrible rush made for the staircase, sod the utmost con. fusion for a time prevailed. The police officers stationed at the theatre did their utmost to restore order but, tot. withstandieg their efforts, med. rushed from the theatre, believing the building to be on fire. Oo order being restored, it was found that the alarm was entirely groundless, and that oo fire bad take, place. What led to the alarm being mind is entirely matter of conjecture, but it is supposed that some timid person in the pit, unaccus tomed to scenic effects, seeing the brilliancy of the "water scene " in the pantomime, was lad to believe that some of the scenery had taken fire, and consequently raid the cry that the place was in flames. It was found that in the crush several persons, chiefly boys, had received contusions, bruises. Lc. They were taken to the St. Anne's Diapeneary, where they received every attention. The staircases leading from the gallery of the theatre and other parts of the building were somewhat broke' in the crush, but beyond that ao serious damage occurred, and after order was metered the performance went on so usual.—Lierrpoof Mercury.

COTTON GOOD& hlanciirerxi, Dec. 27. —The market for shipping yeses bee been very strong to-dav, and all spinners have been asking higher prices than on Friday last. This has rather checked business, and spinners have been rather diaappointed, having come to market under the im pression that they would be able to do a large trade at advancing rates. Any orders given out, however, have been at higher prices than on Tuesday, and the market doses strong, with an upward tendency. In home trade yarns there has been a strong market, and a fair business doing at slightly advanced rates. In cloth the market has gradually strengthened since Friday, and a fair business bag been done. The inquiry has been pretty general, especially where goods were reedy in stock and available for immediate shipment. To-day the market is equally firm, and pewee tending upwards. The inquiry with a view to actual busi. ness to-day has not been so great as was expected, and we have not any considerable operations to report. WOOLLEN.—Linne, Dig. 27.—Ther• has been eves animation is tbs markets this mooning. The attendance of merchants and manufacturers has been small, and the amount of business trinsacted quite of a nominal character. A few !umpteen( spring goods and hairlista have been crane. fared, forming the bulk of business this morning. and these even to a very limited extent. Rates still keep firm, MANUFACTURBS.-11tinottniumm, Duo. 27.—0n1y a very few buyers have attended the market today, and Waimea transactions have bees on an extremely limited scale. The local merchants are busy stock-taking, and out of the market, which adds to the present dulness. Trade, however, is not considered unhealthy, an improvement being generally expected on the opening of the mow pear.
