The grin - emir here declared that she would mad for her daughter if her evidence was required. Dlgby Seymour told her to be calm. and not inter fere ; be would take can of her interests. ereas-examinataoa continued—l gave the prisoner a re ceipt ter 6001., dated the same day that the item is in the account. It is the same now produced; In ch irr do not think the whole of it was written by me. I gave the prisoner a written authority to dispose of all the rat y belonging to me that was in her poeseesion, but never rendered me any amount respecting it. Mr. J.-mph Baynes, of Pekoe-chambers, St. James's street, the solicitor referred to in the ease, was then exa mined. He said that he was the landlord, as mortgagee, of the house at which Madame Rachel resided in New Bond-street. In Juno, 1886, the prisoner introduced Mrs. Bomulaile to him, and said that she owed her some mom's-, and she wished him to sell nut some stook that was in the funds. This was dons. and the result ea+ that the stock was sold for 9631. 2e. 11d. Wit. nets twelve.] a crowed cheque from the broker in the tint instance. and be paid it into his banker's. Cn the same day, the 14 of June, ho gave the prisoner a cheque for 550/. He then deducted discount that was due to him from Madame Raohel, which was 1251. On the 24th of June, at Madame Rachel's request, he charged her with another quarter's rent, and the balance went into account with Madame Rachel fur future rent. The actual operation was that witness received 2501. for a year's rent. The Commissioner—Do you mean to say that Mrs. Dor radaik did not get a farthing of this money? Mr. Haynes—Yea my lord. Examination continued—l heard that Madame Rachel had accounted to Mrs. Itorradaile for 1701. of the money. Merjeant Ballantine—That was part of the 1,0001. we have heard of for "beautifying. " Mr. Haynes—l had nothing to do with that. Tne witness went on to say that Mrs. Borradaile after wards called upon him and informed him that the was pressed for debts, and she wished him to sell her reversionary interest in some property at Streatham. This was done, and the sum realised by the sale was 1.3401. He afterwards paid a sum of 1,4001. to Madame Rachel, Mrs. Borradaile having provided the balance. I advanced 401. to the prisoner at her request, a few days before I myself actually received the 1.34 W. When she asked for this sum she told me that Mrs. Borradaile owed her money, and that it would go in the account. Mr. Haynes went on to say—l advanced her 201. more on the 30th of August, on the 31st I gave her 2011. At this time the 1,340/. had been paid into my bankers to my credit. I gave the prisoner 2201. on the Ist of September, and also cheques for other sums which were taken out of the 1,3401. Moon after this time Mrs. Borradaile was arrested for a debt of SU/. I hat the order of Mrs. Borradaile to pay the prisoner the sum of 1,1001. When another quarters rent became due from Madame Rachel, I deducted that also from the amount. In December, Madame Rachel sent to me for 51., and I gave her a cheque; and in January, 1867, I gave her another cheque for 2721. 14s. ad., and the balance has been subsequently arranged for between Madame Rachel and myself. I gave her the balance in two sums. Mrs. Borradaile certainly never bad a farthing of it. Mr. Commissioner Kerr—Did you ever ask Mrs. Bor radailo anything about the 1,4001., and what it was for ? Mr. Haynes—Yea, and she told me that it was for money that had been advanced to Mrs. Borradaile, and I under stood that this money had been paid to Mrs. Borradailo's cousin, Captain William Edwardes. Madame Rachel told me the same thing, and she also said that she bad receipts for all sums of money that she had paid over to Captain William Edwardes and other persons, at the request of Mrs. Borradaile . I under stood from Madame Rachel she acted as a sort of banker for Mrs. Borradaile. Another portion of the Streatham property was sold afterwards, and the amount of money actually received, after a mortgage had been paid off, was 1,3801. This sum I paid into my bankers, and I paid various RUMS on account of debts that were owing by Mrs. Borradaile to various tradesmen, and upon some of which she was being sued, and the money was paid to prevent her being sent to =l e n s; One of these bills was for 1651. for velvet mantles, and other articles supplied in May, 1868. The RUM of 1001. was also paid to Mr. Pike, the jeweller, for forfeiture of an agreement to purchase diamonds of him to the amount of 1,2601. These diamonds had never been delivered, but Mrs. Borradailo had given a promil- EOry note for them. Sec jeant Ballantine—Then the transaction was that the diamonds were purchased but never delivered, and Mr. Pike had 1001. for nothing ? Mr. Hurled t.aid that lila No. Mr. Comnriaaioner Kerr—The promiviery note state« that the iretrument was given for " value received. - There had been no value received. . . . Mr. Haynes then went on to say that the balance of the amount referred to, 700!., was subsequently handed over to the prisoner. A quarter's rent comprised a portion of the amount that was paid to the prisoner. At this stage of the case the court adjourned for the pur pose of taking some refreshment. After a short delay, the trial was resam&l. Mr. Haynes, on cross-examination, in answer to Mr. Digby Seymour, stated that he had distributed no money without the written order of Mrs. Borradaile. She told him she owed Madame Rachel 800!. and another person 200/. She did not inform him of the nature of the debt of 1,000/. The cross-examination of this witness continued some little time, and he was still in the witness-boa when our report left. (Before Mr. Justice Keating.) CSASOE OF BTABVVO A MILD TO DEATH. William Brooks, 28, bootmaker, and Caroline Brook!, big wife, aged 29, who stood remanded from last session, were indicted for feloniously killing and slaying their child Barbara Brooke. Mr. Taylor conducted the prosecution, end Mr. Collins appeared for the defence. The circumstances of the case were of a very peculiar character, the offence imputed to the prisoners being that they caused the death of their child by negligence. It ap peared that the prisoners, with five children, the eldest of whom was seven years of age and the youngest twelve months, occupied a room at 13, Charlotte-street, Horton, paying 4s. 6d. a week rent. The male prisoner was • bootnsaker, but was earning very little wages—about 12e. a week. The evi dence disclosed the fact that the prisoners were in the habit of going out in the evening and leaving the children locked in the room until a late hour in a very dirty state, and without uny food, and the three younger children were entirely destitute of clothing. On July 2'2 the prisoners were out all night and next morning the atten tion of some of the neighbours was called to the state of the children, and as they were in • greatly emaciated con dition the polio, were called in, and the children were sent to the workhouse, where the youngest, Barbara, died four days afterwards. On a post rtam exami nation being made it was dieoovered that the child bad been suffering trom inflammation of the lungs, and that death had been accelerated by the want ofg u rozer nourishment and care. The prisoners were according ly given into custody, and the prosecution was in stituted by the parish of St. Mary, Shoreditch. It appeared that on one occasion, on the 7th July, the prisoners . were out all day on an excursion from Bin the morning until 10 or 11 at night. The landlady and • neighbour went into the room and found the children lying in a state of filth, and there wee no food in the room but a cruet of bread. Some food was given to them and they ate it up very ravenously, but the youngest named to le, dying, and gave very little signs of life. [The trial was proceeding when our report left. ] POLICE COURTS.-(THIS DAY.) CI.F.RICENIVELL. FHAUDO us TUN CLIARITABLE.--OuNTICTION OF TWO Ain SesitA and James Whes, two labourers, who gave false addressee, were charged with obtaining money by false pretences from several tradesmen in Upper-street, Islington. It appeared from the evidence that Matthew Fade, street-keeper to the pariah of Islington, saw the pri soners going into several shops, and suspecting that all was not right, when they loft he went in and aicer taieed that they had presented a petition asking for money for the widow and children of • man who they stated had driven a parish water cart, and who had been killed by the horse having run away and caused him to full under the wheels of the cart, which went over him. Knowing that the story was untrue, the street keeper ob tained assistance and convoyed the prisoners to the police station, and whilst he was gone to fetch one of the parties from whom the prisoners bad obtained money the prisoners tore the petition into several pieces. Nothing was known of the antecedents of the prisoners. The prisoners said they were guilty, but they wore compelled to do it to get a little money to take home to their wives and families.

He mid that ha would, and that as he wee rang there to pay some men who were employed thereby kit be would air her. AS they were going along the prisoner said her bag appeared to be hea3, ow :d _prollored to carry it for her, and sits his to, do so. He took bar through several sleek a nd, g at what appeared to be a doorway, told to watt • mo nad, se he was only going to speak toneo of Lb tea. lnstead of being a Ism" at was a court, and the primmer ran away with her bag. Sh e gave information to the police, and she did not see either the prisoner or _her pro. piety until he was in custody. In answer to Mr. Ricketts, the witness stated that she was certain the t gssier was the man that took her bag. Nearly all her • bad been recovered. ue Pol-orestable avid Lewis, 19 Y Reserve, said he saw the prisoner carrying a bag and walking the side of the complainant on S a t u rday. H e afterwar ds received iaformation of the robbery, and last night saw the pri• neer and told him be " wanted " ban for stealing a leather bag. He was very indignant, said he war a re spectable man, and be (witness) had better be careful what be was about ; but he afterwards gave bim such in formation as led to the recovery of the bag and most of its contents. hfr. Ricketts said that this was plainly* case of being suddenly led into temptation, for the prieoner was a man well to do, and was boni tide going to the North London Railway, when he was spoken to by the complainant. His being short of money, and thinking the bag con tained valuables. led him in a moment to forfeit a cha racter ho bad held for years. The police knew him as a respectable man, and under hie advice he should plead guilty and throw hinuelf on the mercy of the court, and at the same time he hoped that the magistrate would take into consideration the fact that the prisoner had done all in his power to make reparation by having the stolen things returned. Mr. Cooke raid if anything had been known against the character of the prisoner be should have seat him for trial. It was a cruel robbery, and the prisoner must have intended to rob complainant as soon as she spoke to him. Taking into consideration what had been urged in the prisoner's favour he wield not do less than pass upon the prisoner the severed mew trnce be had in his power to do, vim. that he be im prisoned and kept to hard labour in the House of Correc tion for six calendar months. The prisoner, who seemod to feel hie position scutoly, wee thew removed In custody. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. FORKION DOWILANIO. _ Two fereigners,(s;/;? - ii/;•td and Alfred Dories, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with feloniously enter ing the premises of M. Emile Agard, a French chemist. of No. 47, Gerrard-street, Sobo, and stealing a quantity of Prore ,l l. The privirutor said, through Mr. Albert, the inter preter, that on the previous night, about 9 o'clock, lie went out, locking the door of his shop before going, and another door loading to the I assage was also locked. He returned in about half-an-hour and when he tried to open the street door with his key ho found something at the bottom of the door which prevented him doing so, and at the same time he heard the noise of breaking of glass. Suspicious that there were thieves in the house he called " Police!" genie persons can,. and he authorised them to break open the door, and they did so, and he then wont in with a police constab le, who called his attention to the door which he h ad been unable to open, and he then paw that it had been bolted by some portion on the inside. The scales and weights were gone from the counter, the clock was removed from the place where it had been hang ing over the door—a pair of steps standing there. There was on the counter a hat not belonging to him (pro secutor). On going into the parlour ho found two bags filled with his property. (The bags wore Pro' duced in court, and contained a miscellaneous collection of property.) He then saw that the window of the back parlour looking into the yard was open, he having left it shut. A few minutes afterwards the prisoners were brought back to the place, and at that time several con stables were present. In getting of the window of the parlour some glass was bro ken, and there was blood near the place. lie had seen Rolland at a café, but had never spoken to him. Police-constable James Adams, 136 C, said that the prosecutor, who was standing at his door, said that he believed there were thieves in the place, and that he could not get in. He sent for another constable, and, with the prosecutor's authority, the door was forced open. He found the property produced in the two bags packed up ready for removal. The back parlour window was open. He afterwards found Reiland at a public house, and the landlord stopped the other prisoner. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, The constable said the public-hone adjoined the hack of the prosecutor's house, and that Ro ll and had his hands cut. James Clements. of No. 5.

Mr. Agard identified the razors as his property. Mr. Albert informed Mr. Tyrwhitt that these had been seven burglaries committed by foreigners during the past fortnight. Inspector Harrhon said there had been several robberies of a similar kind to the present lately, and there was every reason to believe the prisoners wore concerned in them. Weeks said that Reiland bad no hat on, and on his asking him if the hat on the counter belonged to him, he replied " Oui. oui." He afterwards found a key in the lock on the inside of the door, and on showing it to the prisoner ho said, " Yes, it's mine ; you found it in the passage door." Reiland, in getting out of the window, hurt his foot, and cut his hand. On searching the prisoners' lodgings, he found there several files, saw.. and keys. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoners.

TIMER VAN DRIVERS COMMITTED FOR MAE IFLAVOII77I.—Laat evening Dr. William Hardwieke, the deputy-coroner for Central Kidd/mem, held an inquest at University College Hospital in reference to the death of Mrs. Nary West, aged 40, who was knocked dawn by one van and run over by two others, whereby she lost her life. John Hemimp stated that about II o'clock oa the night of the 14th July he seat his daughter for an errand across College-street, Camden-town, and as soon as she started one of Collard and Collard's vans, immediately followed by two others, came on at a reckless pace. He ran across, thinking his child was run over, but saw the woman lying prostrate in the road. He loudly shouted to the drivers to stop, end ran after them, but they took no notice. He, however, saw the name of the 0W1143111 on the tarpauling of the vehicles. John Williwns said he saw the three vans on the night in (motion standing at the door of the Crown public-Louse in the ht. Pancras-road. He proceeded as far as Pratt-rtreet, College-sheet, when the same vans came along at a rapid pace. He saw the back of the last van tilt, and thinking some goods had fallen from it he went to see whether it was so ur not. The deceased was lying in the road unable to move. Witness noticed that not more than five seconds elapsed before each van fol lowed the one before it. The police were immediately on the spot and the deceased was taken to the hospital. It was found on post-mortem examination that she had sus tained a fracture of the right femur or thigh bone. No union had been effected and the cause of death was ex halation from the fracture. The three drivers of the vans volunteered statements. The driver of the first said he was sure he did not drive over the woman, and the other two said they knew nothing about the occurrence. The coroner then referred to the evidence, and the jury con pelted upon the verdict with closed doors. After a long deliberation a verdict of numslaughter was separately delivered against William Tuna, Francis Lawson, and Devotee: Allington. The coroner signed his warrauts of committal, but said he would accept bail.

Ranrome, of the firm of Ran some and Latham, surgeons, at Harlaston, committed suicide under very distreesing circumstances at his residence in Church-street. in that town. Early in the morning, it seems, he visited some of his patients, and, while out, procured an ounce of prussic acid at the shop of Mr. Butler. chemist. On his return home he took his seat in the dining mom, where Mrs. Ransoms left him, while, with her servant, Sarah Jones, she went to at tend to certain domestic duties in another part of the berme. A very short time later, or about a quarter to 10 leek, both Mrs. &insular and her servant were alarmed bi hearing Mr. Ransomo groaning, and on returning to tie dining room they were horrißed to find him evidently in • dying state. With great promptitude, however, Mr. Cartridge, aurgeon, was sent for, and he immediately at tended, but could do nothing to save the sufferer, who died before 10 o'clock. An ounce bottle, nearly empty, but which had contained prussic acid, and which bore a fresh label, with the words "hydrocyanic *MU thereon, was found by his side. The deceased. who was about 54 years of age, leaves on children. It is raid that for some time beforehis death he had mani fested symptoms of unsound mind.
