He must sak the coroner, therefore, to make the order The prosecutor was at the Lamb public-house on the 211th of August., drinking mum beer, when the prisoners, whom be knew, went in and licked him what time it wee. He looked at his watch, which was fastened to his belt. White snatched it away, and gave it to Cooper, and they went off with it. Afterwards they offered him a pawnbroker'. duplicate of it. but he would Dot take it, saying he wanted his watch, not that. They had given it to a man named Groves to pawn ; and the money lent upon it, 7a., was spent in drink. Mr. Radon declined to cull Groves as a witness for the prosecution, ternarkiog that he wan clearly a receiver, awl ought to be in the dock. The defence set up was that no (elegy was in. tended, the prisoners having taken the watch meetly to pro vide the means fur getting mote drink, awl that the offer of the ticket was a proof of what their real intent was, not to deprive the prosecutor of the ownership. The Jury found the prisoners Not Gu il ty, and they were severely cautioned by his lordship as to their future con• duet. After MORI, questions to the witnesa as to who bad the melody of the documents, Mr. tileght. the secretary, admitted that he hail them, but under the advice of Mr. Faithful! declined to produce them. The wormer- -Will you give me the proper ilewription of them in the morning wo that I may make the order s: Mr. Slight Te., or, I will do that. Examinaitina resumed be Captain Tyler—lt has not been the practice at Brighton to start at less interval. than live minutes. If the statton.masier started a train at $.28 and another at 5.31 it would be against the rules. If he started train us that morning at lea interval. than five minutes he was acting not only against the rule but against Lis own practice. The tendency of guards and drivers, how ever, is !tither to state 3 later minute of starting than as earlier one. 1 don't mean to say that the witueascs have gives false evidence, but they might have been mistaken. It would have been almost impossible fur Legge to do what he did in going from °se train to another to start them in loathes five initiates. We bare not thought it necessary to have a station master'. report at Brighton of the times of departure and arrival of all trains. We have net much faith in such reports. It would take 600 garde pull up a tram on such au incline as that in Clayton Tunnel, and ef there was any obstructioo it would take somewhat more, as he might not see the obstruction. It would be better to bare as interval of space between trains than as interval of time. Waller. 21, was found Guilin of assaulting John Tones, a police-constable, in the execution of his duty.

John Wh ana , .15, was indicted for unlawfully and mali ciously assaulting Robert Mackay, a police constable, in the execution of his duty, and inflicting upon him actual bodily harm. Would it not be better to fix a point beyond which one train must have passed before soother passes Perhaps it would ; but that would involve • telegraphic cow innate:stain, and my experience of the electric telegraph thews me that it is so liable to mistakes by the persoesi who work it, sod is so apt to inspire a confidence in the drivers which reduces their attention to their duties, that 1 du nut thisk it so safe as to depend upon the nue themselves. Were you satisfied with the system of communication at aaytoa tuned previous to this accident'? —• Yes ' and should have said that an accident was impossible. There are seven tunnels on the line, five of which ere worked by the same description of telegraph as is in use at the Clayton tussah The espiess trains have ten minutes allowed them to go from Brighton to Hassock's-gate, and the ordinary trains (retrieve minutes. It might be better to have a telegraph working one station at Hassocks-mite and another halfway between that and Elrigiaten ; that is if w e adapted the principle of working the line b y electric telegraph throughout, the advisability of which I am not prepared to give an opinion upon. I should certainly not ue prepared to work that part of the line between Hassock's-gate and Brighton by electric telegraph, soil that only. We adopt the telegraph at the tunnels because of the inconvenience of stopping with peasengers in a tunnel. I do not consider the tunnel more glaugeruus than n tier parts of the line, but the coutrary, because you are net halite to those obstructions in a tunnel which fre quently get upon other parts of the line. I do not think there is any advantage in employing the time of the men, which ought to be employed in their ordinary duties, its making entries in hooks of the arrival and passing of each train. It would distract their attention, sod impair their efficiency. We do keep such records at certain salient points of the line, but at Brighton we have always means of ascertaining the times of an . - .sl and departure without any such arningyment. By the jury - -The station master at Brighton has the entire mime/wisest of the traffic to end from that station, and he is respensible. There was no necessity for hie giving spccial coition to the drivers and guards of the trams on sundsy morning. It was the duty of the guard when the trait, stopped in the tunnel to d 3 all he could to prevent the driver from going heck. 1 believe the distance signal at the tunnel is perfectly efficient, and I am responsible for the adoption of that system of mimesis, which is a great improvement upon the old system, which was dependent upon the men who worked it, sod who sometime* neglected their duty. I was much pleased with this signal of Mr. Whitworth s, and adopted it. It acts In' the passing of the trails, audit it fails, it is still the duty of the signalmen to Mr. Cooper prosecuted for the Treasury ; Mr. Sleigh was for the defendant. The prosecutor, who wore two medals, stated that the prisoner's wife complained to him, that the defendant had stabbed her in the fare, and seeing her bleeding. be went to the defendant's dwelling, Pond-place, Chelsea, to apprehend him. The defendant attacked him with a poker, used frightful language, and cut his heel open. Ilia wife then said she did not want Wm is be taken; but the officer persisted, cal with the assistance of another otficer, Smith, 131 B, took him for the assault. Fur the defence it was admitted that an awault had been committed, but the learned counsel urged that the police officer wee not at the time is the ex ecution of his duty, aid that a verdict on the third count would be sufficient to meet the juatice of the case. The Learned 'Judge thought the evidence would justify the jury is coding on the first count, if they believed it, and it wee for them to decide. The Jury found the delni;dant Guilty on the first two eounts,nod _ The Learned Judge sentenced him to hard labour for one year: Thomas Montague, convicted last seasioo, was brought up fur judgment and sentenced to 15 months bud labour ; and fleor9e Anderson, also cowrie:tell at the last session of fraud, was brought up and sentenced to six mon dn. Jame. .1f•Noolaro, 2H , a labourer, was found guilty of wounding Denis Shay in the thigh, in a quarrel, and sen tenced to three months' hard labour. Thomas Ludyetle, 24, was indicted for stealing a table cover, and other articles, the property of James Baldwin. The prisoner was stopped between Horusey nod Highgate with ■ bundle, which, on being asked how he came by it, he said he had bought of a man he did not know, for half-a-crown. It contained a quantity of things which had been stolen from the residenoe of the prosecutor. Oskfield.lodge, Crouch-end, and which were ssfe shortly beforo. He was found Guilty and sentenced to nine mouths' hard labour. A turober of cease in which the prisoners pleaded guilty were disposed of. that en opportunity might be &Won to the pollee to inquire into the matter. Pollee-constable F 11u deposed to having apprehended the prisoner, who resisted him with great violence. She was extremely drunk, although it was r my 12 o'clock in the day. He told her that she was charged with stealing wine and whiskey, and other things. she made a rush to her rooms, and he heard her la her Lox ; but the box was afterwards opened, and the things produced, with some bottles, were found She delivered up the ateredeey sod another key at the police•statiou. Th e pr:sooer, in answer to the charge, said— I was short of money, mid wanted a new dress. That was why 1 pawned the jacket. I meaot to have replaced it when nay wages were paid. If 1 haul not taken the drink, nothing would have happened. Mr. Hemp remanded the prisoner for further exami nation. SUSPECTED MURDER IN WESTMINSTER. William Maloney, a bricklayer's labourer, wag yesterday placed at the bar of the Westminster oourt, before Mr. Arnold, charged with the wilful murder of Nary, his wife. The age of the accused is 40, of the deceased 28 or 30. The court and its approaches were densely crowded. Arthur MRSOO, 15 B division, rid--At about a quarter to 1 tooloy I received information that a woman had been murdered in Leg-court, Peter-street, Westminster. 1 pro- ceeded to No. 2, Leg court, and in the front room on the ground floor I found the prisoner sitting on a chair, and the body of a woman lying on the bed. Mr. Arnold—la what condition was she. Witness—Quite deal. I spoke to the prisoner, but before I did so I pre him the usual caution that he wile not obliged to say anything, but that whatever he said ' might be given in evidence against him. He said, " I know ' , tithing about She did it herself. I bad a few words with her, because she was upon the drink yesterday. I sent my little girl out for some oats for the rabbit, and I was sitting eating bread. bacon, and potatoes with my knife, and when I was done I laid it down oa the table, and my wife took it up and stabbed herself, and then threw the knife away." After this I asked him who lifted her on the bed, when he replied, " I don't know." I asked whether be ossisted, when he replied that be did not. Mr. Arnold—Did you examine his hands and clothing? Witness—l did ; and both hands were covered with blood, more inirticularly the right ouc. There was blood on his sleeve, and Wood on his trowners, and also on his shirt.

Mr. .trnold- What did you my to him when you took him into etutody Witness—l told him I should take him for the murder of his wife. Mr. Arnold—'When did you tell him that! Witness—Before I brought him out of his house. Mr. Arnold- I want to know exactly when you told him—was it before or after you had put the questions to him you have mentioned? Witness—lt was after that that I took him into custody, and told him what A was for.

I went to No. 2 and in the front room, on the ground floor, found a large pool of blood. It is a two-roomed cottage. Prisoner was sitting on a chair ; the woman was lying on the bed dead. I examined her and found a wound in her neck, just above the collar hone. I cleared the room of persons that were iu it, and, having searched, (mind this knife behind a tea-board with blood upuu it, some of which had been wiped off. A sharp-pointed long clasp-knife was here produced, such as is usually carried by working men. Witness—l did not ask him how the woman became wounded. He told me she dill it herself. I found the knife behind a teabood, sticking up in the boards of the rum Mr. Arnold—How wu the teaboanl placed ! Witness—lt stood upright on its side. Mr. Arnold—What was the position of the knife ! Witness—Close to the edge of the teiiboard.

I live with my father, who works at the gas works . At ten minutes or a quarter ifters 12 o'clock this morning I was coming up the court, when I saw Mrs. ILdooey (the deceased) with a quart of beer in a can. We went up the court after she had spoken to me. She went into her house. I went into mine. I had been out for some milk, and was putting it down when my little brother said to me, " Mr. Moloney 's smock is all over bloody. be has been fighting." I ran out, and I saw him standing between the window and door, looking at the blood upon his smock. Mr. Arnold—Was be outside the house? Witness—Yes, in filo court. Mr. Arnold—He was looking nt his smock ! Witiuss—Yes ; there was blood upon the sleeve. I locked into his passage and saw a lot of blood, and a little girl crying. Mr. Aruold—Did you see anything of the deceased, Mrs. Maloney? Witness—Yes, I saw her half-way sitting up on the ground, half lying resting on her elbow. The prisoner at that time was outside. He never attempted to move. Mr. Arnold—Did you observe what she did next Witness—She laid down and put her hands to her fore. head, then she looked up to the ceiling. Mr. Arnold—After you saw her resting upon her elbow, aid she fall Witoess—No, she sank down gradually ; and while on the ground she lifted up her head once again. Mr. Arnold—And the prisoner renahnetl outside? Witness—Yes, all the time, and did not attempt to go away. I maid to him, " Mr. Maloney, sour wife is dead, sod how was it done!" He said, " I put the knife down by the side of nie, and she took it up and stabbed herself." I saw Mr. Payne, the surgeon, afterwards pick her up and put her on the bed. Mr. Arnold—Did you know the deceased Wituess—l knew her well. I have known her ever since she came into the court, nine months ago. Mr. Arnold—Could you tell whether she had been drink. " Vitt:less—She was quite sober. Mr. Arnold —How near is your house to the prisonces? Witness—lt is the fourth door from us. Mr. Arnold—And you say it was directly you got into your house after parting with Mrs. Maloney that your brother made the remark about his smock-frock having blood upon it ! Witness—l had hardly put my milk down. Mr. Arnold—Did you hear any quarrelling between the prisoner and his wife! Wituess—l did not. Mr. Arnold—Were they in the habit of quarrelling ! Witness.—l can't say. Mr. Arnold—What time do you think it was from when you last saw Mrs. Maloney alive till your brother made the remark! Witness—Two or three minutes. In answer to inquiries as to what her brother said, siftings informed the magistrate that he was a child about three years old. Prisoner's daughter Mary, a child only seven years of vge, attending a catholic school in Peterstrest, was wiled next, and having uudergooe an examination before the magh.trate to test her knowledge of right and wrong, and bor answers being very satisfactory, she was considered competent to give evidence, and was sworn. She said—l was out when my mother went out this morning. I went home about a quarter past 12. Father and mother were both at home. Father was against the door and window. Mother was on the floor. Mr. George B. Payne, of si, Denbigh-street, Pimlico, Doctor of Medicine and surgeon-1 was called to Leg. court, and found deceased lying on the floor in a pool of blood. She was qui . e dead. She had a clean incised wound, about an inch long, near the apex of the shoulder, from which a little blood was still issuing. I assisted to lift heron. I asked the prisoner to assist, which he refused todo. I inquired how it occurred, and he mid she stabbed herself. I asked him how she did it, and he ma with his penknife. I mid. ' Had you been quarrelling?' nod he replied "No." He said there was no one present ; they were alone, and she bail thrown the knife somewhere about the room. I only made a cursory examination, but have no doubt that the subelavian artery was divided by the wound, and that death was almost immediate. A woman then told me she bad been speaking only three minutes before, and tho bacon she had cooked was still smoking on the table. Mr. Arnold—Could the wound have been inflicted with a penknife! Witness—No, it would not have made it so clean. Pri. saber stood by the window while I was there, and never spoke. Mr. Arnold—Could you form any opinion whether the blow was inflicted by deceased herself Witness—lt might have been, there is no reason why it should not. _ Witness --- explained when prisoner refused to aaaist the body on the bed that he did not do ao doggedly. Prisoner-1 could not have done it if I got all the world for it. 11r. Arnold—ls there anybody here who can give mo any information about the habits of these people! The police said there were plenty ',resent who could speak, but there reliant a word to be got out of them. The deceased's father was in attendance. The paor man was put into the witness boa, but he war so overpowered by emotion that he could not speak. Mr. Arnold said he should remand the prisoner until to morrow (this day), and should like to have some account of the habits of the prisoner and the deceased.

Lnrths Ahrtelmm Va.., a shabby looking old German, was brought before Mr. Conde charged with attempting to steal u portmanteau from the platform of the South-Eastern Rail way terminus at London.bridge. Samuel Strickland, 76 N, said that on Saturday afternoon he was employed at the terminus in private clothes, in eon sequeoce of the numerous robberies that had lately been committed there. About three o'clock witness saw the pri soner come in the principal entrance and pass on to the platform just as the Dover train had come in.

Mr. Combo had no doubt of that ; therefore he senteneNl him to three months' hard labour in Wandsworth House of Correction. LAMBETFI. Mr. Myer& jun., of Glenne of Messrs. George Myers and Son, the extensive builder+ and contractors, in the York nod, Lamoeth, appeared before Mr. Elliott, to answer a summons taken out by I)uncan Cramb, a journey. man mason, charging him (Mr. Myers) with refusing to pay a lalance of wages of IRs. 11., and also with refusing todeliver him his tools. Mr. Buchanan. the complainant's attorney, said that his client had been in the employment of the Messrs. Myers as a stone mason, under the new trade regulation of seven. pence per hour, and having left, an he had a perfect right to do, on Friday week, he demauded the amount of wages then due to him, 18. i. Id., and also his tools, but both were refuted upon the ground, an he believed, that he was too good a workman for the defeudanta to lose. Mr. Myers assured the court that this was not at all the reason ; and that, on the contrary, they had no wish whatever to keep the complainant one hour longer in their employment than he wished, and in refusing to pay him the wages be claimed and deliver up his tools, he (Mr. Myers) had only acted in accordance with the man's own request. The fact was that the complainant had got mixed on with the unionists, and through their influence or persuasion he cot drunk, and demanded his wages and tools. Ow becoming sober and returning to his senses, however, be expressed much sorrow for his conduct, and requested that he might be allowed to return to his work, and also begged that, in the event of his getting drunk again and demanding bit wages and tools, they might as a matter of favour be refuted. The complainant again got drunk, and was under the influence of drink when he made a demand for his wages and tools on the present occasion, and Mr. Myers considered he was only conferring a favour on him by refuting both requests. Had he applied fur them while in a state of sobriety, both would have bees given to him without the slightest hesitation. H. begged to add thst the complainant had acted with much ingratitude both to his (defendant's) father and himself, for in a former strike they brought him over from Scotland at an expense to themselves of 31.. and be then entered into an agreement with them to work in their employment for three years, rod now, although only two years of that time were expired, be wished to take him self off. Mr. Buchanan requested that the magistrate would make as order for the payment of the 18s. Id. and the delivery of the tools, but Mr. Myers said that would be quite unneces sary, for whenever Cram') thought proper to come sober to the office he should have both. The next case was a RUMOOII4 taken out by the Messrs. Myers against • youth named William Stephens, their apprentice, for absenting himself from lain work. Mr. Myers iu thiscass said they had been obliged to keep the defendant, or rather pay hint a sum fixed ou, for years when he was of very little use to them, and now th.,t he would be usoful heibsented himself from his duty for three nioutlis together. The defence, if defence it could be called, set up by Mr. Neale, was th at the defendant's father had worked for the firm for 17 years, and wits dismissed without amuse. After his dismissal he established himself in a beerhouse. sod hail the custom of nevem' of his former fellow workmen, but the Mears. Myers had interdicted them from wing to his house. Mr. Elliott—What has that to do with the present com plaint Mr. Neale—ln this way. That the allowance under the indenture is not sufficient to keep the defendant, and if his father is ruined he must go to the workhoua •. Mr. Elliott--By this indenture the defendant i■ boned to serve the remaining part of his apprenticeship, which I see is 16 months, or abide the consequence, and I recommend him at once to return to his employ. ANOTHER CARE or SCAPECTED WIFE ML HDER.— On Sunday evening (says the North Brandi Daily Vail) no little sanction was created at Dunlorton on it being reported that a man wea in custody of the county police, at their headquarters here, charged with drowning his wife. The full particulars are not yet brown ; but we learn that the name of the acensed is James Shaw, about 30 years of age, and resided with tbo deceased. who wee his reputed wife, at Falkirk. Her DEMO wan Catherine Merriam, and ohs wan about 25 years of ago. It appears that th e accus e d is owner of two Mires, which he employs in hauling morels along the Forth and Clyde Canal, the deceased driving one of the horse*. They had delivered a vessel at Bowling on Saturday night, and commmiced their return homewards to Falkirk along the bunk of the canal ; and when Lod seen together, near Dslinear, about two miles from Kilpatrkk, between It and 12 o'clock that night, they were both much the worse of drink. Between Dios and tea o'clock yesterday (Sunday) morning, some men observed a whip and a penny piece lying on the brink of the canal, on which a loall's cm was floating, and observed the accused', horses feeding in the neighbourhood. Suspecting that sometiog was wrong, they dragged the canal and found th e body of the deceased. The primmer was found in the neighbourhood, and the Kilpatrick constable proceeded promptly to the spot and took Lim into custody. Us the person of the accuael was found the deceased's pothet and some money. She was in the habit, we are in formed, of carrying their earnings. When the constable ap prehended him he was asleep in a stable, and could give no rational account of his pro etsliogs the previous night sod on Sunday morning. We believe the accused and deceased were not inarrieil, although living together and having a family. Tits RECENT ISCRDER NEAR BIZMINCISAM.—• At the public °Mee at Birmingham yesterday, before H. S.
