It ap pears, however, that there wee • alight error in that statement. The number of hands returned u being down the pit when the explosion took place on spturday was 1139: but it is now ascertained that the number was 200, the list having be= msde from the last pay sheet, and the same of amen who had say been employed there three days, and whose name was consequently not on the psi shut, having been omitted. Adding this man, and including the two who died on Wednesday and Thursday, the total number of victims to the sa d ca l am ity wou ld be 138 ; but unfortunately there is reason to fear that this es timate is not altogether accurate, for there is • confusion as to the let of the names fureished to the coroner that is not easy to clear up. On that list there were eighty names, but on Tuesday and Wednesday the coroner and jury took adistiixot account of the bodies as they viewed them, and found them to be 85, or lee ut axone of the number they Ind been sworn in to view. It is assumed that, owing to the fact of there being somany persons of the same names among the killed, the names of sustain Josue's, Williams's. and Funds were accidentally omitted from the coroner's Int, or that their bodies wore not taken Into account when they were lest brought up from the pit on 13aturday, owing to the pseud state of excitement that prevailed and the utiety of the friends and relatives of the doomed to rush off with their bodies to their dwelliap, as woe as they were above ground, and as there were Mee who lived as far as three miles from the pit's mouth, it would in this case have been exceedingly difficult to obtain an exact return. The total lose of lives therefore may possibly prove to be as high an 143 ; but on the other hand it is just pomible the five names omitted from the coroner's List may be included in the list of "missing and underground," and in that case the number of deed will stand at 138. It is expected that several other bodies will be brought to the surface in the course of the night. The coroner and jury met spin this mornieg, at the Albert Tavern, and the latter were resworn and the pro• coedinp re-opened pro forme?. They then proceeded to a workshop near the mouth of the pit, in which the bodies re covered use. Wednesday, habeas placed for the purpose of viewing them. Most of these were fearfully burnt, and their state generally indicted that they had met their deaths close to the spot at which the fearful explosion occurred. In some oases the clothing had been entirely burnt, and the bodies were completely naked, with the exception of their boots. lu fact, it was only by the boots in some cases that ideatilication was possible.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BZNCH.—Dac. 7. eittiap at Niai Prima after To m.--(Ratan the Lord Chad Justin aad Cosmos Juias.) CUNNING P. DV/EDSON (CLAW . This was an action on a promissory note for 1501. Mr. Knowles, Q.C., and Mr. Gates., appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Philbrick for the defendant. The note in question, which bore date the 9th of April last, was made payable to the Rev. H. C. Hielbron, • clergyman of the church of England, but without • bene fice, and bad been by him indorsed to the plaintiff. The plaintiff is an attorney, in partnership with Mr. Van Sondes, of King-street, (limpid°, the latter being the father-in-kw of the Rev. lir. Hielbron. In the course of the spring, Mr. Hielbron having been introduced to the de fendant, the Rev. E. Davidson, who was then editor and proprietor of the Church of England !Monthly Review, ne gotiations were set on foot between them for publication in the Renew of articles from the pen of Hielbron. Asaaine quit non, however, to Davidson's entering into an engagement with Hielbron, the latter was to advance a sum of 11109. at 5 per cent, interest to Davidson. This sum liielbron under took to advance, after it was peed between them that Hielbron was to have inserted in each number of the Eerier an article from 12 to 15 pages long, and di be paid for by the week, at the rate of 10a per page, extracts to count as original matter, and payment to be made in the first week of every month, but extra work not to be paid for until the end of the year. Moreover, the defendant was to be entitled to six months' notice of the withdrawal of the money, supposing all conditions duly fulfilled by Man otherwise, a week's notice. Such being the agreement entered into, Van Sendai! got his partner, the plaintiff, to advance the money to Hielbron, who in his turn handed it over to the defendant. The first article was inserted in May, and for that payment was made in due course ; the amend in June, and that likewise was paid fur according to the terms of the agreement ; payment of the July publication was, however, postponed until the 18th of the month, whilst the August insertion was not paid for until the 2 2nd of September, after the present action was brought, and that for September 1 still due. There bed, therefore, been a clear breach of the agreement of the 9th April. So after notice to the defendant Hielbroxt endorsed the note to Cumming by the advise of his father-in-law, Van Sandau, and hence the present action. The defence was that Hielbron by a letter had waived the breach in August, that he had included in his demand a snm payable for extra work, but which, aorAsiing to the articles of agreement, was sot due until the sod of &eyes, ; sad, lastly, that Davidson had not ressivel the week's notice to which he was entitled, the writ having been issued the 13th of September, just a day too soon. As the case turned upon points of law, his Lordship directed a verdict for the plaintiff, giving the defendant km* to move.

ADDIMON.—RICTOIIif Wasuurres. The plaintiff in this case was rector of Ickenham, in the county of Middlesex, and the defendant wee the executor of the former rector, the Rev. John Addison, who had held that . positioe forty years. At his death certain repairs were required to the panoramae house and to the chancel. and his repreeentatives paid far the former, and the present action was brought for the estimated amount of the latter, IW. His lordship suggested that the most satisfactory . way to determine the dispute was for some one to inspect the chancel and say whether any and what repairs were re quired. This suggestion was after some discnasion adopted, and a verdict was taken for the plaintiff subject to a reference. mained till the 17th April lag, and was skill an out patient. The plaintiff was called, and deposed to the above hats. He said his leg was fractured and two of his ribs broken. Tee pieces of bone had been taken from his leg. Hs had pieces of iron up the side of his leg to enable him to walk. Cross-examined—He was not drunk. When the accident happened the omnibus was going at the rate of 10 or 12 miles an hour. He fainted, and knew nothing till he found himself in the hespitail. He had no recollection of saving at the hospital, ' If I get over this I'll never get dunk Apia ; it's all my own fault." If he uttered the words he must have uttered them while in a state of insensibility. He denied having made such a statement to a person named Wilson, who was an in-patient of the same ward with the plaintiff, and to Mrs. Elliott, the " sister " or bead nurse. Plaintiff did sot run against the pole of the omnibus. Kr. Gilbert lildurdo, our of the senior surgeons of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, deposed that the plaintiff was suffering from a comminuted fracture of the leg, and one rib broken. There were great doubts of saving the leg. Had the plaintiff been a man of intemperate habits there must have been amputation. The plaintiff ea, crippled for life. Several other witnesses were called for the plaintiff, and among others the friends with whom he dined. They all said only balls gallon of porter was had for dim:Ber between Su of them, and one we. a teetotaller. (Laughter.) They all spoke of the plaintiff u a sober man. This was the plaintifFs case. Mr. Faeroe addressed the jury on behalf of the defendant. Be Loured them that the defendant never defended an ac tion of this kind without first having the facts fully inves tigated. From the evidence he should call it would be for the jury to say whether or not the accident was the result of intoxication or negligence of the defendant. lie called the follow tag evidence. Police constable 500 A said the omnibus in question was only going at the rate of five miles an hour at the time of the accident. When at the hospital he asked the plaintiff if he blamed himself or the driver for the accident, and he replied he could not blame the driver for it. He said that if he got over it he would Dever drink any more on Sun• days. Witness did not notice if the plaintiff had fainted. He was the worn for liquor. The Lord Chief Baron expressed his doubt if a policeman or any other person could tell if this poor man, with his leg and ribs broken, and suffering from pain, wee the worse far liquor. lie wished policemen would not busy themselves so meek as they did in making questions in hospitals and pri , Kau and of persons who were utterly unable to answer them from the condition they were in. Polies-constable 509 A corroborated the evidence with re. ference to the plaintiff's statement in the hospital. Mr. Thonuo, a compositor, who was a passenger on the omnibus, deposed that he was sitting by the driver when the accident happened. The omnibus was going at the rate of five miles an hour. The plaintiff came suddenly from behind • cab just in front, and before the driver could pull up the pole struck the plaintiff. He did not think the defen dant's coachman could have prevented the accident. The driver's head was not turned round looking at an omnibus behind him. To the beet of his belief there was no racing. The driver pulled his horses round to prevent, if possible, the wheels from passing over the plaintiff. Several other puesugers were called, and gave similar evidence with reference to the accident. A man named Smith, ab;tcher, --- was called. He stated that he law the accident. The omnibus was coming along at a moderate pace, and after the man was knocked down the driver pulled the horses' heads off. (Laughter.) He did not mean right off. (Renewed laughter.) He meant that the driver pulled the horses to the off side, and in so doing the hind near wheel of the omnibus only went over the man. The driver pulled up immediately, and did all he could to avoid the serious injury sustained by the plaintiff. Mrs. Elliott, one of the sisters of the hospital, deposed that the plaintiff attributed the accident to intemperance on his part. He was as sensible at the time he was brought to the hospital as a man in liquor could be. Edward Wawa was in the hospital as • patient, and heard the plaintiff attribute the anackint to his own intem perance. Henry Chapman, the driver, gave a denial to the plain tiff's version of the accident. There were tweuty-eight per ilous in and on the omnibus at the time. Plaintiff had hailed the Clapham omnibus coming to the City in mistake for a Kingsland omnibus. Day, the timekeeper, said he went to the hoepital with the driver after the accident, and saw the plaintiff, who said it was a pure accident.

Mr. Alexander Henderson, • photographic artist, was summoned for unlawfully aiming on his ordinary OCCU pa. Lion on Sunday, the 2nd of Deoember, whereby, under the provisions of a statute passed in the reign of Ling Charles 11., he had forfeited a penalty not exceeding ss. The defendant, it appeared, had engaged the top room of the home, No. 49, King William-street, and the summons was taken out by Mr. td'Unith, • boot and shoe-maker, occupying the ground floor, and according to his evidence the proceedings of the defendant on Sundays were • com plete nuisance to every one of the lodgers in the house, and it was admitted that the principal object in obtaining the summons was to get rid of the defendant. Evidence was adduced to show that on the day named in the summons the defendant took the likeness of • young man named Alston, who was seat there for the purpose Mr. Beard, on behalf of the defendant, said he should not attempt to deny that this old, almost obsolete act of parlia ment, had been infringed, but it was clear that the only object of the parties was to force the defendant to go away from the plum where he was carrying on his business. Whatever might be the result, however, he was instructed to inform the complainants that the defendant would not leave, and he would rather submit to be summoned and lined every week, and he would persist in carrying on his baldness as usual. The Lord Mayor said that the offence had been clearly established, and the evidence of the gentlemen who bad been examined, induced him to believe that the defendant's proceedings on the Sunday were a very great nuisance. Ile therefore felt called upon to adjudicate in the matter, and as the defendant through his solicitor expressed his determination to act in defiance of the law he should in flict the full penalty of 5e., and should also allow half-a crown to each of the three witnesses who had been examined, and the costa of the summons, amounting in all to 14a A young man named John Cooper, who is in the service of the lashmentioned defendant, was then charged with a similar offence, and be pleaded guilty. The Lord Mayor fined him bs. and costa. A young woman named Sarah Summers, was charged with robbing her master, !dr. Biggs, the landlord of the Crooked Billet public-house, Crooked-lane. It appeared, from a statement made by the landlord that yesterday morning, in consequence of some informa tion be had received, the prisoner, who was cook in his establishment, was watched, and she was observed to come down before her usual tame, and go into the bar and draw spirits from the taps. Ile questioned her shortly after wards, and she said that she had gone into the ber and that she had drawn a little beer. She afterwards admitted that she had drawn some gin and 'brandy. The prisoner subse quently showed him a tin bottle concealed behind a basket which contained a quart of gin ; and upon searching the prisoner's box he found a bottle containing a quart of brandy, half-a-dosen meows of tobacco, and two half-ounces of tobacco, all of which he bad no doubt were his property. The prisoner, who cried a good deal, and raid she was way sorry, pleaded guilty, and asked his lordship to deal with the case at 0006. The Lord Mayor, after conferring with Alderman Hale, and having aeosrtamed that the prisoner had borne • good character previously, maid he thought it was probable she could nut resist the temptation of taking drink, when per haps she would not have taken money or any other descrip tion of property, and he therefor, should not punish her so severely as he otherwise should have felt it his duty to do. It was however, a very serious offence, and the least sentence th at the court could inflict upon her was two months' imprisonment and hard labour. The Reverend John Broome, the minister of the Cripple gate branch of the London Domestic Mission Society, at tended for the mares of putting the public on their guard against the imposition of a num who was going about col lecting money from charitable persons, under the pretence that it wee for the benefit of the institution mentioned. ' Mr. Broome stated that the individual he roteireit°, who went by • variety of names, was going about and getting money by means of forged letters, pretending that he was connected with the society of which he was one of the ministers, and that he was personally acquainted with him. All that he knew of the man was that be called upon him and wanted him to give him a letter of introduction to some of the ladies and gentlemen connected with the society, but lie declined to do so, unless the party gave him some re d famines. He then said that ho was acquainted with the Rev. John Gordon, a clergyman at Dukinfield, in Cheshire, and proposed to bring • - lettsr from that gentleman, and went away. He came again • few days afterwards and promised a letter, which he said he had received from the Rev. Mr. Gordon, but be (Mr. Broome) still bad his suspicions, and refused to interfere as the man requested, and he left. He sabsequently wrote to Mr. Gordon, and ascertained that some person bad written to him to inquire whether air of the Dukinfieki was suitable loran invalid. (A laugh.) He wrote in reply that it was certainly not, and the object of the application was nodoubt to obtain an envelope bearing the Itutield post-mark, and that this was throne shown to him by the person he re ferred to, but the letter containedin it was., of course, very different to the one sent by Mr. Gordon. Mr. Broome added that he had since ascertained that the person in ques tion had been going about collecting money from charitable persons, his whole proceeding being as entire imposition, and he teat it his duty to make this statement publicly, thinking probably that the prow would take up the matter, and thus the fraud would be put • stop to. Alderman Hale said he was sure the gentlemen of the press would render every 111111i2iLlne in their power to put the public on their g uard sgamat such a shameful impos ture, and the Rev. Mr. Brooms having thanked the alder man for his courtesy, retired. D. E. K. D. P. C. 1. - - -- ABIADiin .. 28.93 46 a 8.8.

Mt. Maim and Mr. Lloyd appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. O'Malley and Mr. Holl for the defendant. In the course of the plaintiff's case it wee stated that on the 6th of October last, she received a month's notice to quit the defendant's service, and she remained until the 14th of that month, when she left under the following cir cumstances : Her minus amused her of having broken a stove, but this the plaintiff danied, and suggested that her master, who was in the hebit of baking bread, had made the stove so hot that it bad cracked. She had another interview with her mistress, and after that the defendant amused the plaintiff of having been itupudeat, and ordered her to leave the house by 6 o'clock. The defendant left as soon es she could to seek a lodging, but having been detained by rain, and by the party whom she sought being out, she did not return to her master's house until past 7 o'clock. He then said that as she had not returned sooner she should not go up stairs to fetch her things, and he placed himself on the stain to prevent her going up. She insisted that she had a right to go where her things were, a- ad attempted to do so. The defendant, however, pushed her back, and afterwards seat for a policeman. Whilst the defendant was off the stairs she went up, and when she came down again she was given into the custody of • policeman who was waiting. The policeman laid hold of her in • brutal and unmanly =DIM and so hurt her arm that sbe had not bad the fall use of it since. She "de fended" herself from being taken to the statics-house, but another policeman was fetched, and she was taken to the station-house, and locked up all night in company with a woman charged with theft, mil in • call infested by vermin. When they got before the rospintrate, the charge preferred by Mr. Buchanan was dimmed, whilst on a charge of having resisted the police she was bound over in her own recorussaoss. A police serpent, however, who was called for the plain tiff, said his impressioe was uit it was in reference to Mr. Buebanaa's charge that the plaintiff was bound over, and that the charge in reference to the police was not dis cussed. The defendant's ease was, that the plaintiff seized him by the wrists whilst he was upon the stairs, and having mastered him and pushed him away she west up. The defendant had previously offered to let her fellow servants fetch her thing. down stairs, but she said she had takes them up, and she would bring them down. The policeman having been sent for, her master and the policeman tried to persuade the plaintiff to leave, and her wages were offered to her. She, however, refused to leave, and behaved in a most violent manner, stamping her foot, raving, and shaking her fist in her master's face as though she would strike him. The policeman himself re mained for from Isalf.an-hour to an hour, trying to persuade the plaintiff, but ineffectually. When he endeavoured to remove her she clapped his face, knocked his bat off, and pulled his hair. His opinion was that she was the strongest woman that he had ever had to do with. When the second policeman came they with difficulty took her to the station. His lordship said that apes the plaintiff's own showing the defendant was justified in putting the plaintiff out of the house, but the question remained whether he was justi firi in giving her in charge.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Lnwoug, Dxc. 7. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.) 11011D111. Elizabeth Dodds was charged with the wilful mantes of John Dodds, her husband, at Wrangle, on the Veld day of July last. Mr. O'Brien prosecuted, and the prisoner was defended by Mr. Stephen. The prisoner was a young woman, and the husband at the time of his death was several years older. la July last the deceased was suffering front constipation of the bowels ' but this disease excepted, the man was in the sujoyment of good health. On Sunday, the 15th day of July, the prisoner's husband complained of sickness • on Tuesday Mr. Cammack, the surgeon, of Bennington, sent him some medicine, con sisting of two powders. He was ill until the following Thursday, when the medicine operated. On the subsequent Saturday the deceased was out all day and was engaged in the construction of • rabbit hutch. On that day he ate • hearty dinner consisting of tea and broiled meat; and after he had partaken of the repast he again went into the pm... The deceased came into the house again about six oclock, and appeared to be very ill. He went to bed, re making the living room of the house but a very short spa i ecl time that night. He never went out of doors, and at sine o'clock he took some of the medicine which had been left on the window sill by the prisoner. He was sick and purged all night, sod the prisoner emptied the evacuations away. Mr. Cammack, the surgeon, gave him a tonic to correct the disturbed state of his bowels. lie died in great agony at three o'clock on the following day, the doctor being . of opinion that he had succumbed under a s h ar p of English cholera. On the following Tuesday, the 94th of July, rumours began to be &limit, and it was ascertained that the prisoner had purchased a quarter of a pound of arsenic on the previous Saturday. The amass alleged for the purchase was that Dodds was a martyr to the toothache, and that he used arsenic se • remedy ; but deceased was not troubled with the toothache at the time of the purchase. The quarter of a pound of arsenic had been placed in a hovel, and when it was found, latter the death of Dedda,it was discovered that I ox. of the poison had been ehetracted. On the Ith of August follow , tug the body was exhumed, and on a post mortem examine. tion beiug made an enormous quantity of arsenic was found in the body. One of the medical men described the body as being saturated with arsenic, and there was no less than 140 grains in solidity adhering to the etomach. With regard to thesupposed motive for such • serious crime as that with which the prisoner was charged, it appeared that there had been jealousy and dissension between the parties. Previously the prisoner had said to a Mrs. Blakey, " John would soon die, and she should have to look out for soother sweet heart." She had also stated that as the apple tree had bloomed twice that year, she knew that her husband would die. . . Witnesses were then called, who proved the purchaae of the arsenic and it. being short in weight when found ; the various remarks made by the prisoner having reference to the death of her husband; and the surgeon and professor proving the finding of a great quantity of arsenic in the body of the deceased man.

A more than usual number of auditors crowded the body and peerages of the court during a great portion of the morning in consequence of a rumour having oeen spread abroad to the effect that • member of a volunteer ride corps bad male a murderous attack on a comrade with a sword bayonet. This ridiculous story orginated in the fact that a man engaged as porter and armourer to the several corps drilling at Huagerford-hall had been charged with drawing • bayonet on a member of the London Irish oorps, but there was no foundation for either of the two principal as sertions, that defendant was himself • rifleman, or Una he had inflicted any injury with the weapon. The case oc cupied the attention of the court at intervals throughout the day, being several times adjourned for further evidence. The defendant, Janus Eketpoey, had formerly been in the army and more recently in the pol'oe, and was employed at Hungerford-hall by the London Irish Brigade, the Mouth Middlesex, and the Six Foot Volunteer Gua rds. He was charged with assaulting Mr. Cox, a member of the London Irish Brigade. Mr. Cox stated that at about half-past eight o'clock on Thursday night, having left Weetmiaster-hall with several ether members of the London Irish, after drilling there, they proceeded to Hangerford-hall, to hear the• band of them company play at nine o'clock. They were in uniform. They were there considerably before the time, and fount the South Middlesex practising their drill. Wishing to look on at the drill of the South Middlesex while waiting for their own band, who would osenniemse when the others had left, he asked defendant, who wee keeping the door, if the hall was open to volunteers. He replied that it was, and witness him, and descended the stain towards the room. He only got a few steps down when defendant followed him, and arid he must turn back and go out. He refused to do so, and defendant, after athimptim; to push him out, went to the armoury of the Six Foot Volunteer Guar* and returned with a bayonet, threatening to " drive him oat at the point of the bayonet." An officer of the South Mid. dime' took the bayonet from him, but he returned with another, and repeated the threat. The officer of the So uth Middlesex begged him not to use the weapon, but he said he had a duty to perform, and he would do it. He was exceedingly violent, end was only restrained from doing witness • mischief by the interference of the officer of the South Middlesex, who took the second bayonet away from him. Before be fetched the bayonet, he hail, in attempting to put witness out, torn his uniform great cost or cape, which was damaged to the amount of about 18s. It was the pretties of volunteers to go into any Owe where other volunteers were being drilled. Several other volunteers of the London Irish, and Loudon Scottish corps deposed that they were with eumplain.int and were about to enter with him, and con fi rmed the state ment of complainant . One of the officers of the South Middlesex requested thereto waive the point and go away, to avoid further disturbance, which they did. Complainant gave Dempsey into custody. Defendant said he bail been instructed not to admit the Loudon Irish while the other corps were drillin-, as on a recent occasion their entry had created ,sine confuLon. He denied that lie had threatened complainant with the bayoute. He was only returning thee,, weapons to their owners, who had left them iu his care. But he contended that he would have been justified if he Lad done so, as a ' sentry might use a bayonet to any man who attempted to pass his pest. Mr. Henry removed with him on the impropriety of so 1 violent acoune,erce if he were right :n excluding them ; but the defendant iirgeed the point with great pertinacity, and appealed to thiptain Cartwright, of the South Middlesex, and to Mr. Comyn, of the Six Foot Guards. Those gentlemen were sent for, and etientled in the course of the day. They gees defendant • high character for general good conduct mid civility, but utterly repudiated the notion that he wait justified in excluding members of the Loudon Irish. On mime exceptional oociudoaa the °Sons of the corps in possession of the hall gave instr ic. times that members of other carp e should not be admitted ; hut this was not the ease on Thursday, and if it were de fendeut would not be justified in using violence.
