sPUNTING INTELLIGENCE, TA/TERSALLI3.--MONDAY. There was but a thin attendance in the subscription room this afternoon. For the St. !age, the Marquis and Buck et/we advanced each half a point, and closed with increased liminess at their quotations. The feature of the afternoon, however, was the complete knocking out of Caractacus, who for .ome days past had been very shaky in the market, and but for the bolstering support of some of his "friends" would have bad his cpuetus given him long before. It was currently reported in the room that things bad not been going on favourably with Carisbrook, which canard speculati on u p on hi m t o h ave a d ownwar d tendency, but his owes, having come to the rescue in such a manner as to refute all such rumours, the horse left off inn at 100 to 15 (taken). Argonaut was reinstated in favour, and was backed for money at 14 to 1. old Calabar would seem to have had the long pending final blow given law as 100 to 1 was offered against him without a response, while even money was offered that he did not start.

THE ACCIDENT AT NoNICITZARMOUTH COLLIERY. The following additional particulars of thia me lancholy accident are from yesterday's Neweastk Chronicle : " The well-known Pemberton's Pit--as it was ones called—at Mookwearmouth, Sunderland, is now the some of another serious calamity, involving, unhappily the uteri lice of five lives, and the present loam of employment to I hundreds of survivors. The colliery, as our readers will remember, was visited in February last with a tremendous inundation of water in the A pit, which burst from the aides of the shaft and rushed down in a great cataract, completely filling the workings of the Hutton seam, whose depth is 300 fathoms—three times u deep as the lower seam of the famous Hartley mine. Above the Hutton is the Maudlon seam, worked by insane of the B pit, whose shaft is divided be bratticing into en rimed and downcast, and communicates into the A pit by means of • drift at the depth of 180 fathoms. Since the occurrence of the flood and the consequent stoppage of the A pit, the B pit has been worked by double ainft, and measures have been ha progress for the thorough repair of the flooded shaft with • view to the ultimate freeing of the mine from water. Ac cordingly just below the Maudlon seam a strong scaffold was constructed, being let into the wall of the shaft, and I forming, as it were, • cork in the neck of the mine, to shut off all communication with the flooded Hutton, and to re ceive the rubbish which might fall during the progress of the repairs. This scaffold was known to have stood firm up to last week, because it recently received the dead body of • poor man who fell down the pit, and on another occasion the cage alighted upon it through the breaking of the rope. At the depth of 170 fathoms from the surface a second scaffold was constructed, so as to shut off communication between the Maudlon seem and the upper portion of the A shaft undergoing repairs, and to direct the current of air into the B pit. This scaffold was constructed after the completion of the metal tubbing, aed also intended to re ceive rubbish or stone which might fall in the course of subsequent operations. It was formed by strong balks of timber let into the sides of the shaft, boarded with 3-inch planks, and covered by something like • thousand tons of rubbish. making • solid ' cork ' of eleven fathoms in thick ness. Thus the sinkers and =sous could proceed with the minim; of the shaft without interruption, and, es they fancied, in comparative safety. Them men worked in shifts, standing upon a " cradle," which is a light round platform, fitting the circumference of the abaft, and sus pended by six chains to the strong rope by which it was drawn up and lowered down. " On Friday night there were at work, a hundred fathoms down, six men,'named C. Wrght, Robert Lamb, David Mason, James Hall, Robert Dryden, and Joseph Lamb (father of Robert), who was the man in charge of the shift. Their time would be up at midnight, and ten minutes before that hour it was agreed that they should put another stone in. The elder Lamb asked Wright to go to bank for it, but the latter declined, telling Lamb to go for it, and he would %moke a pipe while he was away. He accordingly went to bank for the stone, and had just placed it in the tub to de mand, when he was arrested by the sound of • terrific crash in the shaft. The immense scaffold, eleven fathoms thick, had giveu way, and was dashing down the shaft with de 'tractive force. This was immediately followed by a tre mendous rush of the fresh air into the vacuum and down to the depths of the mine, creating a pneumatic force or suc tion so strong that four of the six chains which held the cradle were snapped asunder, and the cradle, of course, canting over, the five men were hurled into the abyss be. neath. The veutilation of the mine was thus deranged, and the furnaces at the Mandl= were blown out, the fire scattered along for 100 yards, and the furnace man, Michael Quinn, and his sou, severely burnt. The noise of the fall was heard throughout the colliery, and the people ran out of their homes to the pit mouthto ascertain the mum. Among them were many drunken pitmen, we regret to say, who wanted to jump down the shaft, sod perform other impossible feats, and they so impeded the labours and con sultations of the officials, that a force of the borough police had to be obtained to keep them back. Mr. Button, the engineer, and the muter sinker, Mr. Wankel', descended to forty fathoms below where the unfortunate men had been at work, but could discover nothing of their fate, save the painfully apparent fact that they had gone to the bottom of the shaft only to meet with instant death. The mouth of the shaft was then covered over with planks and tarpau lins, to preserve the ventilation until the neighbouring mining engineers could be called in to advise 111 to the best means of reaching the bodies. Providing the lower scaf fold, at the Maudlon. has stolid firm, the bodies might be recovered with tolerable facility, but there is too much rea ms to fear it would also give way, and therefore they must be at the bottom of the flooded pit, rendering their reco very • matter of considerable doubt. The workmen were taken out of the B pit immediately on the occurrence of the accident, and must be " idle" till something definite be ascertained respecting the situation of the bodies of the lost singers. " The whole of the unfortunate men were married, end, with one exception, had children. Robert lamb was a yonogman of 21, and married only two or three weeks since. David Mason, 30 years of age, leaves a widow and one child ; James Hall, 44 years, widow sod five children ; Robert Dryden, 35 years, widow and three children ; Charles Wright, 37 years, widow and seven children. The latter would seem to have been attended by a singular fatality, for it was not his turn on the shift ; but ss the right man, Scott, was out of the way when the shift was summoned, Wright was induced to go in his room. Then again, as we have previously stated, be was requested to go to hank just before the accident. but preferred to remain behind to smoke a pipe, and met with • terrible doom, which seemed to hang over him with all the dread fatality of predestination. It was also the last shift that James Hall had to work, and he was to have proceeded to Thorn ley, his wife corning over to Sunderland on Saturday morn ing to meet him. The wife and family of poor Wright are left unprovided for, as it seems be had neglected to connect himself with any box or benefit fund. "On Saturday, at noon, the cover:nig was removed from the pit month, and workmen descended to get up the cradle ; and when this had been accomplished new chains were attached, and it was once more got into order for a descent Mr. Dunn, the government inspector, with Meseta Armstrong and Easton, visited the pit during the forenoon, to consult with the resident viewers and en gineers ; but they did not descend. It was deemed advis able to put in planking on the sides of the shaft, where falls of earth or stone had taken plaoe, and during yester day (Sunday) this work was making rapid progress. It will have to be continued, and the shaft sides thoroughly secured, before any one can with safety descend to attempt a recovery of the bodies. There have been two or three additional falls of stone since the accident occurred. The operations which have been in progress for sinking the B pit shaft down to the depth of the Hutton seam will be re sumed to-day ; hat the misers cannot yet get to work, so that those who have not been bereaved will have to suffer hardship through the loss of their employment "Similar repairs to those required in the Monkwearroonth Pit have recently been completed in a most satisfactory manner at Gosforth, by Mr. Coulson, of Durham, the emi nent sinker." FATAL ACCIDIIIT IN TEI 8111• ND.— Yesterday afternoon an inquiry was held by Mr. St. Clair Bedford, the Westminster comma, respecting thedeath of Wm. Bromine, a cabman, who wu killed in the Strand on Wednesday last, under the following circumstances:--Charles Endes, 7, Bridges-street, Strand, said that on the evening in question he observed the deceased driving la Hansom cab at a steady pace along the Strand, and as be turned into &Weigh-street the horse slipped and fell heavily on his side. The noxious. aims caused the deceased to be precipitated headlong from has box on to the pavement, hie bead striking the kerb with frightful force. A number of gentlemen mil and picked him up, and be was conveyed to the hospital quite insensible. He died almost immediately from an extensive fracture of the skull. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental Death." - - - FRIGHTFUL DEATH. —Yesterday morning an in quiry was held at the Poplar Hospital. by Mr. IL R. Wal thew, deputy coroner for East Middlesex, respecting the death of Joseph Sargent, aged lii, who was killed on Thurs day last. Mr. William Moffatt, 3, Eagle-terrace, Victoria. road, said that on the day in question the deceased and six other men were moving a ship's mast, more than 60 feet in length, down the road towards the docks. At the moment of the accident the steam from the heavy steam hammer of the Thames Iron Works escaped with a loud noble, and frightened a horse, which dashed along the road, and the wheel of the cart he was drawing caught the mast, and ran along it taking off a long shaving until the deceased was COMO to, when he was crushed against the timber and the truck on which it rested. His chest was completely flat tened in by the force of the collision, the ribs being broken and driven into the lungs. He was oonveyed to the hospital, where death soon terminated his sufferings. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death." Susormaa ATTACIL—An attack of a peculiar nature occurred near Carmarthen on Saturday afternoon. A young woman named Gwerillian Williams was proceed ing across the fields homewirds from market, when she was fiercely attacked by a rook. The bird flew at her face, flap ping its wings and cawing in the most violent manner. The girl was frightened and took to her heels. The enraged bird, however, still kept up the chase, and was only induced to forego the attack still further by a countryman who, happen ing to pass at the time, drove it away. On examination of the face of the young woman, who had fallen to the ground in a fainting state, it was found that her left eye had been pecked completely away. She was conveyed home, and proper surgical attendance procured. H er face was also scarred and marked to a considerable extett, part of her lip being pecked away. BEZZLEMENT By • TRAVELLER. —At the Bir mingham Polioecoart, yesterday, James Clegg was brought up on remand charged with embezzling several sums of money, the property of his employer, Mr. Storer, dried fruit merchant, Liverpool. In addition to the previous cease which had been brought forward, Mr. A. W. Suck ling, who appeared for the prosecution, brought for ward two other cameo. In the one case the ,do prisoner bad rece paid over, 9O/, from and the Mr.ot W which her f rom Mr . Neville . Mr. Allenby, who appeared for the prisoner, con tended that, as the prisoner bad tendered an account of his defalcation., it was only a matter of accounts- The bench, however, committed the prisoner to the sessions. On the application of Mr. Allenby, the bench agreed to accept bail in two sureties of 2001. each, and the prisoner in 4001., twenty-four boars' DOOM to be given to Mr. Suckling.

At the Petty Sessions, West Bromwich, on Saturday, Major well and Mr. W. Sharp being the pre siding magistrates, William Henry Paine, • respectable looking young man, residing at the Lasalle, the soy of • farmer in Suffolk, who rents between 200 and 400 acres of land from Sir Charles lianbury, was placed in the dock, charged with committing a rape upon the person of Ellen Mary Bagoall, aged 20 years, dressmaker, of Perry Bar. Mr. J. T. Bayley, of Weduesbury, having briefly stated the facts upon which the charge was founded, called the prosecutriz, Ellen Mary &gull, a modest, genteel looking girl, who seemed very ill, and was accommo dated with a chair during the proceedings. She said—l have known the prisoner twelve months last Christmas. last Monday evening I had been to Mr. Barrett's surgery for some physic for my mother, and in returning had to pus the house where the prisoner at the top of Chain-walk, in the Lozelle-road. I Batt: talking . to a young man, and when I came up he wished him good night, and joined me. We went together down the Heathfield-road, and along the Westminster-road to Holler- ton Smith's mill, when I said, " Let us go back, or we shall be sure to meet my sister." I also rid , "Itis so late, I dare not go back all the way round by the road ; let us go the nearest way across the fields." As we were walking along I told him that my mother said I must give him up, when he bit his lips sod seemed vexed, and said, " It appears to me . you want to shuffle," and I said, "You may think what you like. There is • widower lives in a house across thus . fields, and he has spoken to me." He asked me what he said, and what he was. I told him be was an independent . man, and he did not say much to me. He made no remark to this, and I said, " We have last the footpath ; let us make for it." I was then on bin right hand, mid he took hold of me, and I thought he was gomg to pretend to push me in the dirt, when he clasped me tight, put his I mouth upon mine so as to prevent my shouting, pushed me down on the bank, and fell on me. The witnese then • detailed the nature of the aseault, which was of • brutal character, and continued: I streaks:l I with him, and tried to push him off, and struck him with my left hand, my right arm being pressed by his body across mine, so that 1 could not use it. As soon as I esca ped from him I rid, " You brute, what have you done' I shall tell the first lemon I meet." He said, "Not you." We met • man about thirty yards off ; but he looked so rough that I did not speak to Wm. He said, "Hallo, what's the matter?" and the prisoner said, " We've lost our path." He followed me nearly bane, and asked me to forgive him, but I said, " No." As soon as I got into the house I told my mother what had im flr. enro.tte the witness without shah- ing her evidence. --- Mrs. Bagnall, the mother, said—My daughter came into the house on the evening in question in • very excited state, and I asked her what was the matter, when she came across the room and fell at my feet, and told me what had occurred. I immediately sent for police-constable Davies, who arrested the prisoner on the following day, and brought him to ray house. When I charged him with committing a rape upon my daughter he stood for a moment, and said " I've not hurt your daughter ;" and I said, " You have ; she was a virtuous, good girl ;" and be replied, "I've not done anything criminaL" Mr. Alfred Barrett, surgeon, of Great Hampton-row, said he examined the prosecutrix on the following day. There was a bruise on the right side of the right breast, and also • discolouration on the right thigh, and another a little above the left knee. The witness then detailed inch evi dence as left no doubt of the nature of the assault. Mr. Motteram, for the prisoner, pleaded not guilty, and called a witness, named George Pendroy, who deposed that be was a farm labourer, and on the night in question saw the prisoner and a young lady, whom he believed to be the prosecutrix, pass him at about half-past 9 o'clock in the evening, as he was watching in the field. They turned out of the foothpatb under • hedge, where he lost sight of them for • quarter of an hour, until they came over a bank together, when be asked them where they were going to, and also for something to drink. The prisoner gave him lid., and said he thought there was a road across the field. Mr. Greenway, merchant, of Principetreet, who gave the Prisoner the highest character, said he believed him quite incapable of doing such an action, and stated that he had been apprenticed to him, and also that he was now in his office. Mr. Thorneyeroft, farmer, Harborne, and other wit nesses, gave testimony to the prisoner's hitherto irreproach able character. The magistrates having retired with their clerk to con sult, after the lapse of a short time returned, and, amid breathless silence in the court, Mr. Sharp said, that though there had been such a defence made as they very rarely beard, and one that almost tempted them to forget the evidence, which they must say was not rebutted or contra dicted, they felt it to be their painful duty to commit the prisoner to take his trial at the nest assizes. In conse quence of his previous good character, the magistrates con sented to take bail, himself in 1,000/., and two sureties in 5001. each. Mr. Greenway and Mr. Harrison gave the bail required. INFANTICIDE IN THE METROPOLIS. At an inquest held in Islington yesterday, Dr. Lankeater, one of the coroners for Middlesex, took occasion to make some remarks on the very large number of cases of infanticide which occur in the metropolis, and on the failure of justice in instances where there is too much reason to suspect that actual murder has been committed. The in quiry at which the coroner was presiding was one into the circumstances connected with the death of a newly-born male child, whose body was found on Thursday last in a mews at the rear of Compton-terrace, Islington. Police constable 270 N deposed that the dead body of the child, wrapped up in some wool, had been found by a little girl. The constable knew no more about the matter; and in reply to Dr. lankester, he stated that he had not made any inquiries on the sub ject in the neighbourhood of the place in which the child had been discovered. The coroner said he supposed the police thought the finding of the dead body of a newly-born infant too ordinary an occurrence to call for inquiry. Dr. Stamford, the medical gentleman who had made the poet molten' examination, gave his opinion that the child was born alive, and that it bad been three or four days dead when found. The umbilical cord was tied, but not in a skilful manner. The child bad been a weak one, and he was not prepared to ray that death bad not taken place from natural causes. That was all the evidence on the rub ject. Dr. Lankeater said that this was one of a clam of cure which were exceedingly numerous at the present day —much more so, he thought, than society generally was aware of. He regretted to state that such Cane were con stantly occurring in London. He believed he held nearly one inquest a day on the bodies of newly.born infanta. These children were found under three different classes of circumstances. First, there were cases in which there could be no doubt that premeditated violence had been used—cases in which the child bad been born alive and had lived fur some short time, but in which the parents , or either of them, had determined to get rid of it by putting it to death. In such instances juries had little difficulty in finding a verdict of wilful murder, but too frequently that verdict had to be against "a person or parsons unknown." Again, there were cases in which there was no evidence of violence, but in which it would appear that the child had died shortly after birth from causes which had occurred during birth, or, as was perhaps the fact in the came then under consideration, in which the child bad died from natural causes, and in which, because of illegitimacy, the mother, feeling ashamed of her position, took advantage of the death and got rid of the body as beat she could. There was another clams of cases, that a children who had not beau born alive. He could not but think that something might be done to diminish the number of each of these classes, more especially that of actual child murder. It appeared to him that if more vigour were shown in the matter by the police authorities—if there were more activity in endeavouring to find out the guilty parties —more discoveries of the perpe trator' would be the result. Punishment would have a salutary effect in the way of prevention. It was a criminal offence to conceal the birth of E a child ; and, if rewards were offered for the apprehension of those who committed it, much good might be the result. A juror observed that parishes had in some cases offered as large a reward as 501. Dr. laoikester thought that there ought to be a reward in every cue. The English public expressed their horror at infanticide when it was brought under their notice. They were not aware that the finding of the body of a dead child was of so common an occurrent* in London that there were instances of it every day. So common will it that the police seemed to think no more of finding a dead child than they did of boding • dead cat or a dead dog. This was a blot on our civilisation, and vigorous measures ought to be adopted with the view of removing so great an evil. In the case under consideration the jury returned a verdict of " Found Dead." THE NET/ REGISTRATION OFFICE UNDER THE LAND TRANSFER ACT.—Yesterday upwards of 20 workmen in the employ of the government were engaged at the late Insolvent Debtors Court, converting a part of the establish ment into a registration office under the recent act on the transfer of land. The court of the chief commissioner of the abolished tribunal has been pulled to pieces, and several offices are in the course of erection. Two of the courts iu Yortugalatreet are reserved for law proceedings, but as yet nothing has been determined upon. The entrance of the new registration office will be in Lincoln's-mn•6elda, and it is expected that under an order of the Lord Chan cellor it will be opened to register estates before the com mencement of Michaelmaa term. _ Sr. THOMAS'S HOSPITAL. —The sale of the fixtures and materials of St. Thomas's Hospital, preparatory to its removal for the Charing-cross Railway, commenced yester day morning. The sale will last five days. It includes the fittings of the beautiful chapel, thousands of feet of York and Portland atone, the whole of the admirable apparatus for warming the building, an immense quantity of lead, and no fewer than one million sad a half of bricks.

THB DOUBLE MURDER AND SUICIDE AT BRADFORD. Ou Saturday Mr. Jewison, corouer, resumed and concluded his inquest ou view of the bodies of Mary Ryan, aged twenty-two years, and her two children, Patrick Joseph and Mary Ann Ryan, whx, as the 3rd in., were found drowned in a milldam in Frederick-street, Brad ford. A large crowd of people asembled in front of the Britannia ion, Dryden - street , where the inquest was held, and where the bodies of the deceased were still lying. The following additional evidence wait taken : Sergeant Joteph Bolton, of the Bradford police force, said—About half-past five o'clock on Wednesday evening last, in consequence of information that Vary Ryan had been found drowned in a mill-dam in Frederick-street, and that her two children were missing, I assisted to search the dam, and in it were found, in my presence, the dead bodies of both the children. The bodies were brought to this house. I saw no marks of violence upon either of them. I afterwards examined the pocket of Mary Ryan, the mother, and found in it 24d. and a "charm." • Rich ard Mitchell, annuli - nen for Mr. James Gellemore, Frederick-street mill, said—On Wednesday last, about 20 minutes before 5 o'clock, I saw some article of dress floating in the mill dam. I got a piece of wire, made a hook at the end of it, and drew the article to the aide of the dam, and then I saw the body of Mary Ryan. She was quite dead.l observed no wounds upon her person. I did not know her before. I have known her husband, James Ryan, more • than two years, and have been in hi s compsuo regularly at a public house once or twice a week. I never saw him • drunk. Catherine Clar e t . o d f Ebenezereourt, Bradford, said— I lived near the , Mary Ryan, and was acquainted with her. She left her home early on Tuesday morning, owing to a quarrel with her husband. She went to her mother's house, stayed there all Tuesday night, and on Wednesday came to Mrs. Costello's, Ebenezer-court, where I bad some conversation with her. She was crying. Mrs. Costello went out, and then decested said, "Oh, dear, I've a good mind to drown both myself and my children." I said, " How can you say so? Yon can go to the workhouse with your children, and the guardians will make your hus band_ pay." She replied that she ought to have gone the day before, as no applications would be taken 0= Wednes day, it being the board.day. Directly after this she went away, saying that her youngest child was very cross, and her mother would scold her for being no long absent. She went towards her mother's house in Croft-street, and took with her her eldest child, and a Chair , which her husband allowed Mrs. Costello to take out of his house, and give to her. This would be about half-put one o'clock in the after noon. I have not seen either Mrs. Ryan or her children since. Whilst I was in Mrs. Costello's house Mrs. Ryan's husband passed . by, and gave the elder child sixpence and some copper coin. I thought the money was intended for the mother. She refused it, and said, " I want the bed." Her husband took the money back again, and said she should not have the bed until the rent and other debts were paid. He afterwards sent his wife sixpence and some old cloth that bad been cut up to make into waistcoats. Mrs. Costello brought them to her. He declared to Mrs. Costello that he would not take his wife back until he had pad what be owed. Both he and his wife were obstinate. She said, "I dare not go back ; I am afraid he'll murder roe." Her right eye was discoloured. She said her husband had made it so. When I had this ooaversation with her she seemed quite rational. I never saw her in a passion except once, rather more than • fortnight since, when she and her husband bad been quarrelling, and she came out of their cellar and broke three of four squares of glass in their window with stories. He had been striking her at that time, and she had then a black eye. About 5 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon last I heard that Mrs. Ryan had been taken out of • milldam in Frederick-street ; the dam is about 300 yards off Ebenezer-court. Bridget Hayes, mother of the deceased woman, said— My daughter came to me on Tuesday morning, and brought herr two children with her. Her left eye was black, and she complained of pain in her right shoulder and hack, caused, she said, by her husband having kicked her. She told me she begged like a cripple for mercy—begged that he would not kill her entirely. I have seen him bat his wife in my own house. I remember her breaking the win dows. She came and told me on that occasion that she bad had had a hard struggle to get away from her husband, who had been beating her, and that when she got out of the house she took up two stones and threw them at tbe win dow. She stayed with me last Tuesday night, and went back about eleven o'clock next mm ning, to ask her husband for the bed, and with the intention cf leaving him the elder child. I cannot tell how long she remained away. She bad no dinner at my house; she was not in the house when my own family got dipper. When she returned on Wednesday, she brought both the children back with her • she was crying ; she told me her husband had sent out 6d: for her, that she had demanded the bed, and that he said he would not give it to her until his debts were paid. I did not tell her I would not take her in. She said she was afraid to go and try the door of the cellar where she and her husband lived, lest be should murder her. Be was always drinking and spending his money, and taking from the de ceased what she earned. The deceased told me her husband came home at two o'clock on Tuesday morning, and got through the window without awaking her. I was not in my house when she left it on Wednesday for the last time. I last saw her alive about two or three o'clock in the after mos. James Ryan, her husband, has threatened to kill both me and his wife. He has struck me as well as the deceased. On one occasion he threw • stone through a window at her. He deserted her, and was away in Lanca shire eight weeks. The deceased was afraid her husband would do her some harm. On Wednesday she was terrified about it. I sometimes thought her mind was disordered. James Ryan, tailor, • tall, dark-viaaged man, husband of the deceased woman, and father of the two children, gave the following testimony—l know nothing as to the cause of the death of my wife except my calling her, and she may have taken it to heart. On Monday morning last 1 went out of the house, and did not return until 2 o'clock on Tuesday morning. I went out with the intention of buying materia l for some work, and I met with • party of men belonging to my own trade, and we went down to Kelly's beer-house, in Cioft-strest. When I returned home at two o'clock on Tuesday morning I lifted up the window, got into the house, and looked into the oven where my supper was generally placed, but there was no supper for me. I touched my wife, who was asleep in bed, awoke her, and asked for my supper. She told me I might get it where I bad been all the day and night. I told her I had not been in im proper company. We quarrelled, and I struck her with my open band on the left side of her bead. She then began to cry. I raised my hand over her and threatened to strike her again if she did not give over crying. She gave over crying, and I went to bed to her without my supper. She got up at half-past seven on Tuesday morning, and cleaned the house and the children, after which we had some further angry words, and she took the children and west away. She told the neighbours I had been accusing her of improper in..imacy with a man. 1 may have said something about a man to her, but cannot repellent. If I did, I never thought there wan anything wrong about her in that respect. On Wednesday she came to Mrs. Costello's, • few doors from my place. I did not say I would not receive her. I told Mrs. Costello to tell her to come home with the children, as she had nothing to fear. I gave the elder child 9d. at Mrs. Costello's ; that was all the money I had. I sever threat ened to murder my wife, and never sharpened a knife for that purpose. I never in my life struck her with my closed hand. She had not black eyes when she was alive. The last time I saw her alive was about half-past one on Wed nesday, when she left Mrs. Costallo'a. I had taken back GIL which I gave to the child, and I gave the 6d. to Mrs. Costello to give to my wife at that time. I never spoke to her on Wednesday, and cannot say what state of mind she was in. The witness went into a long explanation of fre quent quarrels between himself and his late wife, and blamed his mother-in-law, Mrs. Hayes, for some of them. The Coroner made some remarks upon the evidence, after which the jury were left to consider their verdict. After they bad deliberated about a quarter of an hour, The Foreman of the jury (Mr. Wardman, of the Junc tion inn), said they were unenimously agreed upon the fol lowing verdict :—" That Mary Ryan drowned herself and her two children, and that she was of sound mine! at the time, but acting under • fit of violent Fusion." The coroner said that was a verdict of fob de se, and ex premed his approval of it. The body of Mary Ryan, the mother, was buried at the towns expense , in the Undercli ff e Cenietery, at a late hour on Saturday right, without Christian rites, as is usual in such cases. The funeral of the children took place at the same cemetery on Sunday. FORGERY AND FLIGHT 01 THZ ALLEGED FORGER. A farmer named James Robertson, tenant of the farm of North Mains of Letham, on the edits of Mr. Hay, of Letham Grange, has been wanted by the police for some time on several charges of forgery. There are four distinct charges against Robertson, and on Sunday week the procu rator•ftsoil from Forfar, with a poem officers. of offirs. visited North Mains of Letham to apprehend Robertson, but found that both he and his wife had gone away on Friday. The bills forged are as follows :—One drawn by Robertson for 1001., and bearing to be accepted by James Smith, farmer, Drowandub. near Arbroath, and David Warden, farmer, Lour, near Forfar, discounted in the British Linen Company's bank at Arbroath ; one for 501., drawn on, and bearing the forged signature of, George Simpson. corn dealer, Arbroath, discounted by Robertson in the office of the D undee Booking Company at Forfar; another for SOL, bearing the forged names, as acceptors, of Alexander Harris, Mains of Collistoo, and James Smith, Drowandub, die. counted in the Royal Bank office at Arbroath; and a fourth for 45E, drawn on, and bearing the forged names of, David Forbes, cattle dealer, Douglas Muir, and discounted by Robertson in the National Bank office at Forfar. Robertson sold cows at Glasterlaw market on the Wednesday previous to his flight, and be and his wife were afterwards trued to Glasgow, and it is supposed he had gone thence to Liverpool, and sailed for Arnoricia on the Saturday. From both of these porta steamers nil for Ame rica on that day. A meeting of his creditors wu held in Arbroath on Saturday, and it was found that his debts would amount to about 1,8001., and that hie aloe* com prising almost solely the stock and cropping on his farm, would reach about 8001. The meeting ordered sequestration of his effects to be immediately applied for.—Arbroath Guide. _ _ Sovas Kuwerwersow Istrintww.—Daring the week ending Sept. 6, the visitor bare been as follows :—On Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday, free days, open from 10 sae. to 10 p.m., 32,486 ; on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, students' days (admission to the public &i.), open from 10 a.m. tdl 6 p.m., 5,412 ; total, 37,808.

William Ward, a publican at Greenwich, and also • pugilist, was chargad with cutting and wounding, with in tent to do sours FWVOOI bodily harm, Benjamin Butler Crust, son of the late ex-champion. The court was crowded with the friends of both parties. Mr. Sleigh, instructed by Mr. Edward Lewis, was for the prosecution ; and Mr. Pearce, instructed by Mr. Abrahams, for the prisoner. The complainant, who had his head bandaged all over, and who appeared to have suffered serious injury, on being sworn, aid--I keep the Coach and Horses public.house, St. Martin's-lane. On the 29th of August. about 8 o'clock, I returned home from the country, and I found a pugilist named Patsy Reardon at the bar conducting himself in a disorderly manner. I went into my and after a short time the prisoner came in arid aara m m r e . what I struck Reardon for. I said," That is my busi ness." The prisoner replied, "If you struck him with out cause, I'll murder you." A person who was present told roe that the prisoner was Ward, the fighting man. I told the prisoner to leave my home. We jawed ono another, and the prisoner went out of the parlour. I heard • noise at the bar, and going out, I found the pri soner swearing about Reardon being struck. I said I would have struck him had he made use of similar lan guage to my mother. The prisoner swore a tremendous oath, and seized me by the collar. I hit and pushed him to get away, and ran off fearing violence. The prisoner broke a pint tumbler on the counter, and came after me, saying, " I'm a tiger when I begin." The prisoner struck and cut me over the head three times. The prisoner was dragged away by some person, and I was dragged away into the bar-parlour by another person. The prisoner seized bold of two glasses and threw them at me. The glasses were smashed against the wall. The prisoner then laid hold of • quart pot, bat it was taken from him. The prisoner was quite sober. I had done nothing to provoke this savage attack. When I hit and pushed pad the prisoner, it was in my own defence. I was sober, but I had had something to drink. I was taken to Charing-cross Hospital smothered in blood. lam an out-patient of the hospital at this time. enuriputsmiund by Mr. Pearce—Did not know the pri soner's name. Had not known the prisoner for the last dozen years. Recollected the fight between Reardon and the black. Had not backed Reardon. Had Dot backed either of the pugilist. Had seen Reardon in the house. Had fought with him in front of the bar. The primmer was not present at the time. Was is the habit of being in his own parlour of an evening. Did not have a glass of ale with the prisoner in front of the bar. Did not fight that night a men named Mick the Grecian. He ordered Mick out of the house. Had not struck Mick, and given him a black eye. after the convenatioe. Did not recollect the prisoner asking him why he struck Mick the Grecian. Might have been asked the question, but did not strike Mick. Did not strike the prisoner on the nose for asking why he had struck Mick the Grecian. Would swear that he had not hold of the prisoner, striking him, and that the injuries be had received were occasioned by the prisoner having a glass of gin and water in his hand. There were about Ave or six persons present at the time of the assault. His wife and sister were serving in the bar at the time of the affray. Was not • pugilist. Had chal lenged a man called the Australian to fight for a hundred pounds. Had not challenged &anion to fight. Re-examined—The reason why he was fighting with Reardon was because, when be returned home from Alder shott that evening, he found him creating& disturbance and pushing people about in the house. Mr. George Delamotte, home surgeon at Charing-cress I Hospital, recollected when the complainant Caunt was brought to the hospital. He had several wounds on the head which were such as might have been inflicted by the vaned edges of a broken drinking glass. There was a great deal of hemorrhage. Two of the wounds on the head were an inch and a half long, penetrating to the bone. The complainant was not in danger now, but at one time symptoms of erysipelas set in. The complainant was still in a very weak state. Thought the complainant when brought to the hospital was perfectly sober. Mr. Sleigh said he had now put before the bench such a prima fame case as would perhaps induce the magistrate to send the case for trial. . . _ Mr. Pearce said he was prepared with witmewes to prose that the assault was nothing more than a matter of self defence. . . Mr. Selfe having declined to say whether he would commit for trial until all the evidence was before him, Mr. Sleigh then proceeded to call his witnesses. Rom Bryan, sister-is-law of the complainant, said she saw the prisoner strike the complainant. The prisoner took up a pint tumbler, broke it on the counter deliberately, and then attacked the complainant with it. The prisoner struck the complainant three times with the broken tum bler. The prisoner bad not been drinking out of the tumbler. The prisoner then threw two other tumblers at the complainant. The prisoner bad previously been sup plied with a glass of ginger beer. Did not see the com plainant strike the defendant on the nose. Mr. Selfs said be considered that on this corroborative evidence it would be his duty to send the case for trial. Mr. Pearce said he was prepared with witnesses to rebut the evidence given, and to give a different complexion to the caae, but on the intimation that had been given, he should reserve his defence for the trial. lie presumed that bell would be accepted. The prisoner was then committed to the Central Criminal Court for trial. Bail was then given, the prisoner in 2001., and two sure ties in 1001. each. WINTMINSTER. Alfrtd Kaki, • waiter at Cremorne, was charged with stabbing police-cometable Potter, 174 V, under the follow ing circumstanced: : Complainant said—About 8 o'clock on Saturday night I was on duty io Cremorne-gardens, when I was called into the hotel, and Mr. Pearce, the manager, said—" Potter, you must see this man out, he's drunk, and using abusive language, sod the company are complaining of him ; you must see him off the premises ; I've paid him his and discharged him." After Mr. Pearce left, the pri w n a ci ge waiter, A vory, said. "Now put on your coat, Alfred, and go away quietly." Prisoner then said, " What! you 've brought a policeman here. If be lays his band upon me, l'll stab him." After a little persuasion he put on his coat, went out sod into the ball•room. Thinking myself called upon to follow him, I called Avenell, 244 V. to my assistance, and going to the prisoner said, Mr. Pearce has paid and discharged Jou, why don't you leave the premises?" He then said, " You'd better not lay a band upon its." With aornepersussion I got him to leave the hall-room, and was still persuading him to leave the gardens, when he said, "If you lay your hand upon me, 1 knife you." He then turned round and kicked me on the knee. I then took him into custody, but had not touched him before. Avenell and I took him by the collar quietly on each side, when he commenced kicking vio -1 lastly, and we had got him • short distance, when he made • " lob" at my stomach with his right hand. I brought my hand forward and received the I blow upon it and immediately found the blood trickling from it, and that I had been stabbed, upon which I called out to Avenell, " he's got a knife," and catching hold of his wrist, one of the bystanders took an open knife from him. (The knife (produced) was a sharp pointed pen - knife, with blood upon it.) We got him outside, he still kicking us violently ; we called Parish, • hackney-carriage atten dant, whom he kicked two or three times, once very seriously, upon which Parish knocked him down and we held him there till I got assistance. I may mention that from the time I was called to him first until he struck me I did not see him put his hand in his pocket to take out the knife. Although he threatened to stab me I anticipated that he would do so ; he was the last person I should have thought capable of doing it, as during the time he has been there he has been a moat quiet and inoffensive lad. Cross-examined by Mr. Smyth—l bled very freely, but the wound is not very painful now. I considered it my duty, according to my orders from Mr. Pearce, to see the prisoner out of the gardens. I treated him with the utmost kindness end forbearance all through. He did not pro. miss to go quietly if we let him go. I did not say to him, "By —, if you don't go I'll break your shins." I had my truncheon out after he stabbed me, but did not use it. I almost did, but I was most reluctant to offer him any violence, having known him so long, although several gentlemen en deavoured to persuade me to strike him. Thomas Avenell. 244 V. and James Parish, hackney car. L i r nO t t te called ndant4 till l94 l ; ot w te ere r wu cal g i lti i ng n w ea rro ha b u: ra ter n fro . m P lot i of h blood, and on prisoner's kicking him violently, Parish knocked him down. A certificate having been let in from Mr. F. Goodrich, the divisional surgeon, showing the nature d the wounds, Mr. Smyth made a lengthy address to his warship, ta the course of which he said it was much to be regretted that 5o serious an offence, in point of law, should have been committed by a young mac who, according to the constable's own account, and as he would show by Mr. Adams (the secretary to Mr. Simpson, the late proprietor of Cremorne), and a host of witnesses, was a most quiet sad inoffensive young man. He was afraid the case had arisen out of over-zealousness on the part of the police. His client was intoxicated, and after having some words with Mr. Pearce, that gentleman had asked Potter to remove him from the hotel, which Potter, in hie anxiety to do his duty, had no doubt construed into an order to turn him out of the gardens. Acting under this impression he bad followed prisoner about. He contended that the constable bad no right to do this ; prisoner had thought so too, refused to go away, and be (Mr. Smyth) understood some violence was used in removing him, and in the struggle the policeman was accidentally stabbed, a state of facts supported by Potter's observation that the young man must have had the knife in his hand before the timetable came up. Mr. bayman thought the observations made by the prisoner clearly showed that he meant to stab the constable, end whether the policeman had exceeded his duty or not had nothing to do with the case. His own impieties was that the prisoner, having been discharged, bed se eight to remain in the gardens. Under these circumstances he should *end the case for trial. . Mr. Smyth remarked that such beiog his worship's de termination, he would bring forward no witoesses at pre sent. His worship would, however, be supposed, accept ball tor socused's appearance. Mr. Daymen remanded the prisoner, in order that the depositions might be prepared, and accepted two sureties in . each for his appearance. AORICULTCIRAL PROSPECTS. The week opened with favonrable weather, which lasted until Monday evening, whew a change appred .L hand, and some shght showers fell. Up to this point good speed had been made with harvest work. - . On Tuesday our advices from Suffolk state:—"Harvest operations have most rapidly and satisfactorily progressed owe this day week until last evening, when some quantity of rain fell. We believe four-fifths of our wheat crop are, however, wifely homed " From the sun, county, usurer the coast, it was observed -" The greater portion of the wheat in this district is secured, and the bulk thereof in good order. Thrashing has been going on an freely as harvest work will permit; and the complaints of a defi cient yield reach us from all quarters, the maximum being three quarters per acre on really fine staple soils, soil we fear our average will not be more than two sod a half Quarters per acre ; but perhaps it may yet, be too early to jump at unsatisfactory conclusion" Throughout Tuesday night and early on Wednesday nu.ro• ing some heavy rain had fallen, and in parte of the count r y the weather was very unsettle d. Harvest work, therefore, was checked ; and any corn carted on that day must have been got up is very poor condition. From Norfolk our informant says:—" We bad rain yester day; otherwise it has been fine since this day week. and great progress has been made in securing the oorn. Nuerly all the wheat and three•fourths of the barley are safe, and generally in lbw order. The yield KOMI, from present re. port, to be as good as was estimated, and, as if we should report (the crop as now gathered, to be rather below an average one." From Worcestershire, on the same day, it was stated—" The weather is all that can be desired for the harvest, and in some districts the thrashing machine has been taken into the field, and the crop thrashed at once without ricking. The crop of wheat is not near an avereg e one." _ _ There were slight showers on Thursday ; but the rain falls chiefly in the night. On that day our advice' from Suffolk say :—" With the exception of five hours' rain on Tuesday, we have had another week of fine harvest weather. Nearly all the white corn in this immediate district is secured ; but all along the coast and inland a small portion of the wheat and about two-fifths of the barley are still out. With firm weather until Saturday evening, our crops here about. may be called nearly safe. From the emus county inland our advice, rue :—" Nearly all the wheat crop is now secured. Red qualities are superior to the white, and, as was expected, yield better. About half the barley is car tied ; the other half, partly cut and pertly Mending, exposed to the weather, which, after a splendid fine fortnight, has this week broken up." From Lancashire it was stated that the fall of rain sines Tuesday night to Thursday was 2 inches. On Friday showers fell at intervals; sad from Lincoln shire, on that day, our informant says :—" We are now in • very precarious state with respect to our harvest ; and if the wet continues about two more days, sprouting will have commenced. About one-third of the wheat is stacked hereabout,, not dry, but sound, and will come right if not thrashed until it is dry in the stack. What is left out is a problem as to how it will prove. There can be but very limited supplies of sew wheat from this district for some time to come. All the barley is in stock, or nearly so, and will soon suffer seriously. I see no appearance of any im provement in the weather at prment." From Yorkshire, on the same day, it was written :—" Since Tuesday we have bad a good deal of rain and little harvest work done, though to-day has been moderately fine, and with no rain up to this time." Saturday proved an unfavourable day, being muggy and close, although with not ranch rain. The evening was thick sad fow, and but little corn could have been carried. (hi the what, then, • considerable check has been occasioned wherever the rains were heaviest. In Lincolnshire, the ankl lead counties, Yorkshire, and farther north this hasbeen the case, and the prospect of securing the corn in primecondition is DOW quite dependent on the future state of the weather. In Scotland the commencement of the wheat barred may not be next week, although, if fin*, they might have begun in the Lothians towards its close. A September harvest in that part of the United Kingdom is a precarious one, and, with the present broken and unsettled weather, not for the moment very promising.—dfark Lane Express. LONDON WEEKLY.
