Jots DOW' was re-examined on a charge of steal* various articles of wearing apparel belonging to James Parsons, of 13, Dove-cottages, Larkhall-lane, Clapham. Elizabeth Finlayson, of No. 11, Dove-cottages said that en Saturday morning la s t th e p r i soner was i n the street, crying "old hats." In a few minutes afterwards she found him in the parlour of No. Pi with a bag on his shoulder. She asked him what he had got in the bag, when be mid, some old clothes which the woman told me to cell for." Witness replied "No, she did not tell you to call, u I told you myself the woman was not at hums ." She then desired him to empty the bag, when he walked into the bedroom, threw it down, at the same time shaking out the contents, among which were a gown, a skirt, night dress, coat, trainers, and other things. He then tried to make his escape, but she pursued him, when he punched her o n the breast, and got out at the back door. She hallooed Police," and two constables, who were close by at the time, ran after him. Mrs. Parsons was out at the time. Mrs. Matilda Parsons identified the articles which the prisoner shot from his bag. She proved that she did not desire the prisoner to eon for them. Police-constable Satflzill, 242 W, said be saw the pri soner running from the direction of the house. He was stopped 400 yards from it. Witness took him, bat he did not say anything in reply to the charge. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and as he was not known, Mr. Layman consented to dispose of the case summarily, and sentenced him to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. The prisoner was then removed. re. the 61 • est BREAPIIES OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. Mr. l'uderSheriff Abbott and a jury assembled at the See. siocaliouse, Newington-canmway, yesterday, to assess the amount of damages to be awarded in two actions in the 4ueen'n Bench for breach of promise of marriage, in one of which the damages were laid at 100/., and in the other at 1.0001., and in both instances the defendants had snowed judgment by default. In the first ease, " Dorman v. ItGlar a verdict by consent was taken for 101. ; and in the other " Ripuer v. Dixon," Mr. Thomas appeared as counsel for the plaintiff, and the cue was settled by a verdict by ersisent for d 5/. THE FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE STRAND.—The I nquest respecting the death of Charles William David Mosey, aged It, was resumed at King's College Hospital Yesterday. It will be reinemberedfthat the deceased was watching some workmen remove the stones forming a pillar at an archway at the corner of Pickett-street, when a ' , Placa broke, and he was struck to the ground and re ceived such injuries that he died shortly afterwards. Streral witeeasesi were called yesterday, but the state n.eots made differed very little from those heard at pre ,',oue meetings of th e jur y. Th e jury returned the fol. "jug verdict :—" That the deceased met his death by the want of proper caution being used by the Messrs. Foster." The coroner said that it amounted to a verdict of accidental death, as the jury did not specify in what way there had been want of caution. A.. LORNT TO CAPT. DARNARDISTON.—We regret to say that Capt. Barnardiaton met with a severe accident at Sudbury, while out shooting, on the 10th inst. He was staying at Ripon Hall, between Norwich and Cromer, %shooting box belonging to Sir Edward Kerrieon, Bart., eo.l wa s out with a party, when his man, who was carry tog second gun, a breechloader, behind him, let the meaner fall, anal ' the shot struck Capt. Ban ardiston on the sule of his foot, just below the ancl r e, inflicting a a' "re wound. It I. supposed the gun was half.cock, and •-e muzzle fortunately slipped down, as bad the aim been an inch hi g h er i t mus t have st ruck the made, and Itarnaidistoo would probably have been lamed for e. Niue shots still remain in the foot. He was removed b c'eee to Benny ou Saturday, and under the skilful treat !nem of Dr. Williams, of Sudbury, we are glad to hear Ley Progressing. —Suffolk Ckronide.

In the Stock Exchange to-day there is an almost entire absence of business, and prices have scarcely varied. Consols are unchanged, both for money and the account. It is understood that there are limits in the hands of many of the principal brokers to sell this security at 95, so that there seems little prospect of an advance beyond that quotation for the present. The speculators for a rise, however, hope that some of the banks will make further investments within the next few weeks, and thus impart an upward tendency to prices. Other secu rities are extremely inactive, with the exception of Turkish of 1862, the 5-20 Bonds, and Erie Railway shares, which show a somewhat important advance. The applications for discount are still upon a very moderate scale, and the rate for choice bills is unchanged, at 14 to 1} per cent. Short ad vances on English government securities are offered in the Stock Exchange at 1 per cent. per ' annum.

He was turned twice round and received fearful injuries on the breast, had an arm broken, while his head also was injured.

MYsTemors thscovemY.—Yesterday Mr. John Humphreys, the Middlesex coroner, held an investigation. at the Amherst Aims Tavern, Amhurst-road, Hackney, respecting the discovery of the skeleton of a child in the cellar of a house at Hackney. It appeared from the evi dence that the family of a stationer named Butley, residing at No. n, Grove Villas, South Hackney, were about removing to another house in the neighbourhood, when • charwoman, the mother of the servant, found in the cellar under the stain , • hamper tied with string, and on opening it discovered therein the skeleton of a child, wrapped in a piece of flannel. In the same cellar was a hen which had been put there for hatching purposes. According to her statement she told Mrs. Batley of the dircovery, when she told the witness to put it away until Mr. Butley went out, and afterwards asked whether it cmild not be put in the duet-bin, or burnt. On being told by the woman that the dust-bin was full, and that burn ing the skeleton would Callif) a dreadful smell, she said never mind ebe would take it to their new house, and bury it in the garden, where it would not be discovered. Mn. Nutley, however, contradicted most of these statements, explaining that she did not wish her hus band to be upset by the matter is he was not well, and was going out when the discovery was made. Her mother was deed ; she was 49 when she lied. She had lived in a house with a Mr. Webster, • contractor. They had not lived together as man and wife. They lived in the same house for three years. He used to get tipsy, and be behaved in an improper manner. Witness got her mother to leave him. She did not know how the child came there. It might have come with her mother's furni ture. Mr. W. H. Wright, divisional sur.;eon of police, said that the child was brought to him at the station. There was scarcely anything but the bones. The skull wag not fractured. The cause of death it was quite impossible to tell. Witness thought that the child was born six months. The flesh had been eaten off the bones. In reply to the coroner, this witness said that if the lien was on short diet, it would feed off it. In consequence of the discrepancy of the evidence, the coroner considered it necessary to adjourn the inquiry. 11 V
