The old lady heed on her means, in a very se eluded state, !iving no other person about her but a girl of the name of Harrison (now in custody), who fetched •ter errands and slept with her occasionally. - Site sent the girl Harrison nut about nine o'clock to get in some -errands, and at ten, or shortly after, the tinnily . of Mr. 'Jesse, next t'oor, were alarmed he a rumbling noise, and -which continuing in a house always so (-Inlet excited. a'arm, and on knocking at the uuor there was no 'answer. At length the patrol and watchman obtained an entrance by the winttow.of the 'first floor, and on Antening the door leading to the passage, one of them run:bled upon the body .of the unfortunate •woman, rwehering in her blood. Prorupt, medical aid was had, tut the spark of life was extinct, as the deceased hail bled 4:li no more was left. The wound was on the side of the throat duse to the jogitiar vein, of several inches in depth, and most have been done with a large knife, or or a similar instrument, as the orifice was very large.— The barbarous assassin or 3SSUSSIIIS left a sack nearly inear:y filled with linen, plate, and every thing of value 'which could be grasped to the.passage, and it is evident they fled with what money they could get the hack way, appearances denoted, on being alarmed by the knocking of the neighbours, or the entry of the patrol. The sack L4IS a mark upon it, which it is hoped will lead to the discovery of the assassin.—There was also a case like that of a stns.-no Lett in slue house, with which tie doubt the diabolical murder seas perpetrated. The girl air ri,on returned. some time after the murder haul been dis covered, with her errands, and she hearth the dreadful stews. She was strictly interrogated, when it turned °tit there were a few sovereigns in the house. Front .witat transpired the girl was lodged in safe cnsmay, and immediate search was made after her fatherdu-law. lle WJS found on his way to his lodging and secured • and his daughter-in-law are iv. separate confinement. in the sack containing the property there was a quantity of short shavings. Robett.street is very secluded, and the neiglthouthood was much agitated during the whole of Sunday. In the evening, at seven o'clock, a meeing of gentiemen, residing in and near Robert-rtreet, was Cffil %l:lWO. for the purpose of concertimr measures to faciltate the detection of the murderers. It was agreed upon, arson.: other things, to offer a reward of too guineas liar their apprehension, and to give every encouragement to the pdlice in their exertions to attain that desirable end. AEU. CORONER'S INQUEST. A respectable jury sat at the workhouse, in Gray's. inn-lane, at three o'clock on Monday last, cod having, avail the coroner, Mr. Sterling, viewed the hotly, which I.y at the house in Rohert.street, they returned to the jorv-rooin, and received the following evidence:— r. Lewis liehdlev, 42, Great Janus-street, Bedford. rsw, surgeon, deposed-1 was called to attend the de ceased on Saturday night last, a little after eleven o'clock, at No. lb, Rohermtreet ; 1 was iminmed she had been strutdcred, and therefore hastened instantly to the spot. Uu entering the house, I observed the deceased lying in toe passage,• on her rialit side, in a slanting position, the ht s al being on the floor, and against the partition near the parlour door ; the lower extremnies were drawn up, and Ma left leg was lying over the right; there was a considerable quantity of blood on the floor, which had fltaved souse distance, and there was blood also on the ssaiuscot. 'fhe ear-rings were hush front the ears of the deceased. .1 was desirous of ascertaining if iife was cx. tine+, and 1 found, altnutigh there was sail some warmth about the cheat, that rezpiration and circulation had en tirely ceased for sonic time. 'the extremities were quite c Ad. 1 then proceeded untimely to examine what 1 - ;tar) , had been iiiitcted to produce death. I found a deep wound on the left side of the neck passing from the jovial , vein in a slanting direction towards the %emblem, the instrument having di% ided both tine internal and ex ternal jocular vein, and caroted artery. There was art other wound on the right side of the neck, near the back part, extending towards the transverse processes of the cervical vertebra!, probably inflicted with the satire rat rnment as the former wound. I should think •it oast have been a pointed double edge., kink, or some ithsirunnmt bf that kiwi, probably about half an ihch ecto,s the blade, that *as used in perpetration of the horrid act. The other injuries were a few slight bruises on the legs and arms, and use forcible removal of the ring fi..gcr of the left hand ; it was cut MI at the second joint, and probably by the same instrument with which the o. her wounds were itacted. 1 du not .consider the wound at the back of the neck would flare caused sudden d..ath, but the di% isiun of the large artery on the left sole, which almost commonic..tes with the heart, from tar sudden rush of blood which it would occasion, Was stall:tient to cause in.tantatteous dissolutiou. it might he as Well to mention that both the wounds were stabs and not cuts, therefore the instritinent must have been sharp pointed. The bruises that I have referred to were, in sill probability, produced by the suivggling of the de. ceas: d, either prior to her receiving the wounds, or at the t .me she Mrs Sarah Chewy sworn. I live next door to the deceased. About twenty militates before nine on the . wain of the murder I was shuttling talking with the deceased at her own door. I had borrowed an Italian into of her, and had Laken it home. I knocked twice at the door before the deceased opened it ; she had po Lot, Vt'hilst we stood talking at the doqr a strange tat rum past the decease, into the kitchen, and the de • Aged went down stirs to turn it back. I waited till are Cattle tip stairs, and after a few minutes conversation I wait away, and left her standing et the door. I saw • iterson standing about the house at the time. In about ten minutes alter I was told she was unordered. Mrs Mary Earle was next ex:twitted. She deposed, 'bit a little before nine she was in her own mom on the fast duur, next door to the house of the deceased; she THE NATIONAL REGISTER heard two men, both journeymen bakers, talking to the last witness in her room, after which they went out, and Mrs. Chem) , went out the moment after, and heard her knock at the deceased's door, which was opened by the deceased, and she heard them talking, and knew their voices. Shortly after Mrs. Cheesy returned into her own house, and in less than five minutes after she-heard the screams of murder four different times. She first thought they proceeded from Mrs. C.'s room, and went down stairs to know the cause, and met Mrs. Chessey in the passage ; she asked her if she had not heard the cries of murder; she replied that she bad not. %Yitness then went up stairs to Mr. Wilson, a shoemaker, who was at work over-head, and asked if he had heard any cry of murder? he replied he had not, nor could he, in conse quence of die noise, as he had been using the lap tune. Nut satisfied, she again went to Mrs. Chessey, and told her the was site there was something wrong at the next door. Mrs. Chessey then replied, it could not be, as it was not more than five minutes since she had been talk ing to Mrs. Donatty. Witness repeated again her sus , vicious to Mrs. Chessey, that something was wrong.— They went to the door and knocked, ;id called on Mrs. Dmiarty, and leceived no answer, and they took no further notice till the watchman came round calling the hour of nine, which was very soon after. When the witness first heard the shrieks, she then heard the street door of deceased's house violently slammed to, and then she heard the cries of murder. Mr. John Mona, the constable of the Light, William Walton, the watchman, and Vt Bolson, the patrol, were next examined ; their evidence went as to their entering the house, and finding the body, arc. Mary cone Young, thy young woman who, with her stepfather, were in custody, on suspicion of the murder, was next examined. Site deposed as follows:—She lives at No. 16, Baker's-row, Clerkenwell ; she occa sionally attended un the deceased near two years ; they agreed very well together, but sometimes there might be a trifling di ff erence ab out something. Witness lived with her mother, but came sometimes to do odd jobs, or go of messages, for the deceased, but came to sleep there every night; she sometimes came there at eight o'clocka and sometimes not till half past 11 or 12. On Saturday last witness left the deceased at half past seven in the morning, and after leaving her a loaf of bread, did not return until about half past ten at bight, when she found a crowd collected beliire the door, and then heard of the murder. ‘Witness had nu sweet-heart or any other per son come to visit her at the deceased's, neither did she ever describe the situation of the house to any person, nor had she any suspicion who the murder was commit ted by; the back door was always bolted, both day and night. All wituese knows of the :,ourneytnen bakers is, that one used to visit Mis. Chessey—Mr. Donatty, the no phew, heed 011 very gcod :eons with the deceased.— Witness does not know of any property the deceased might have in the home. Elizabeth Ryan, la, Hubert-street, next door to the deceased, was in her back kitchen a little before nine o'clock on Saturday night. She heard a great noise in deceased's house, and the street door bang violently to, and heard something heavy fall, but took no notice at the nine. The Jury at ten o'clock, returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against wow peritin or per , ons unknown.

DA\ AND MARTIN, 1524. 97, High Holborn. THE GREATEST DISCOVERY . IN Tl UNIVERSE for changing in a few minutes, Red or Grey Hair on the Head, Whiskers, Eyebrows. Ate. toe Brown Alia. (without staining the skin) is ABIGAIL'S GOLDEN ME TALLIC TINCTURE. The proprietor does not wish to say much in its praise, as a trial will convince it to be the best article for changing the hair. Several Ladies and Gentlemen who have used the Golden Metal. lic Tincture have given it the decided preference to various arti cles which they before used for a similar purpose. OisenwE.—Dyes are in general made from lunar caustic, ex. tracted from silver, lime, white lead, &c. which are unhealthy, and troublesome in their application, and turn the hair to a put. ple hue; but the Golden Metallic Tincture, which is extracted from Gold,is sure to change the hair on the head, whiskers, or any other part, to no other colour than a Brown Black, in a few minutes without staining the skin, or the least trouble, by partly pouring a little of it in a wine glass, and dip the narrow part ..1 a dressing comb in it, and comb it through the hair, which wid soon dry and have the desired effect. Farther particulars are in the Directions, which are sealed up with each bottle, so that any one can their own hair with ease and secrecy in a short time. The proprietor, after consulting with the first Chemical Gen. denten in the tinpire, and trying tin years. with great expense and difficulty, to extract a tincture front Gold, has at last suc ceeded, and it is proved the purest and innocent dye in the 11.4 ii. verse for changing hair. Ca urrost.—As various articles arc generally tried to be coun - terfeital; therefore Ladies and Gentlemen a ill be particular and ask for AntnAlL'S GOLDEN METALLIC: TINCTURE, at 11. per bottle, or six bottles for 51. which is a saving, and observe 6. Abigail A. P." is signed on the cover of each bottle, without it is not genuine, and cannot answer the purpose. Sold by appointment. wholesale, by Mr. Prince, at No. 9, Poland Street, Oxford Street, London; and by must ptimipal Perfumers and Medicine Venders. To accommodate Ladies and Gentlemen residing in any part of the Country, by enclosing the money in a letter by post, di. meted to Mr. Prince, 9, Poland Street, Oxford Street, Lontior, Mr P. will send them by return of coach to any part of the ling. dom. It is :o prepared as to keep in all climates ; the older the better. Merchants, Captains, also Country Shopkeepers, will receive liberal allowance tbr exportation. ,-; ,PRINCE, the Original Proprietor, has so ire tt. proved the RUSSIA OIL, that it will be pleasant, and will keep in all climates. 'through the discovery of an extra , valuable ingredient, and which has been proved, will be sure to assist in preserving, and promoting the hair, will make it grow thick and long, prevent it falling off or ever turning grey, teed will be sum to assist in restoring it to bald places, if the least signs of roots are remaining. And as the Proprietor is now resolved not to prepare his Russia Oil without that valuable in. gredient, although very expensive ; therefore the Proprietor cannot possibly sell the ounce bottle for less than Ss. and the large bottle, which contains five ounces, tar one sovereign, which Is a saving. And as sonic think the Russia Oil dear, the reasen is easily ascertained ; for instance, an ounce bottle of Oil of Roses is only about 35.: and an ounce bottle of the best and genuine Otto of Roses is five guineas. 'the reason i., because the one is far more preferable to the other. So it is with PRINCE'S Russia Oil, which it far preferable to any other article for the Hair. Even Medical Gentlemen have published in the Gazette of Health, that Prince's; Itunia Oil is superior to any Oil for the hair ; will restme it on bald places, and strengthen weak hair sooner than any other preparation. Also Mr. Marshall, the first Court Hair dresser, of Wigmore Street; Mr. Hanson, Hair Dresser, &c. to the Royal Family, Weymouth; Mr. Adams, Boar Lane, Leeds; and hundreds of other principal Hair Dres sers, have declared that they recommend Prime's Russia Oil before any other, as from experience they have tuund it to be the best for preserving and promoting the Hair, clearing the scurf, and keeping the head and Irbir ekan; although there are other Articles for the Hair daily puffed in the Newspapers. But there are thousands of Ladies and Gentlemen have a good head of hair by using PRINCE'S celebrated 'Hasa I A OIL. Dui some Ladies being persuaded to we other Oils, they soon found the difference, as their hair began to fall ma or get grey. Ladies will find Prince's Russia Oil prefuruble to any orherOil for dressing their own, or false hair, as it gives, a natural gluts, softens, end curl• it. Gentlemen wearing powder ought to use it instead of pornatuna 1 it promoter. eyhrows, whiskers. ac. Sold Wholesale, Retail, and for Exportation, by the role Pro. prietor, A. Pit Ire c , removed to No. 9, Poland-street, ()mord- Street, near the Pantheon; and by Mr. Smyth, Perfumer to his Majesty, New Bund-street ; and by most principal Perfumers anti Medicine Venders. Proved by affidavit, the :4th of November 1814, before the Lorthalayor, that A. Prince is the Original Promictor in the Universe of the Russia Oil ; therefore if any Perfumer, Medicine Ventler a llair larassaer, or any one else, sills Russia Oil, that is not Prince's, they arc impostors, as they sell counterfeits to their customers. Asa fur Prince's Russia Oil, and observe " Prince" on the wranper and seals of each bottle: without, it is not genuine, and cannot answer the purpose. Ladies and Gentleimea will be particular, as there are unprin. eiplial peraons in town and country who sell counterfeits, anti say they are genuine There has been of late Counterfeit Russia Oil told in almost every street ; and Impostors have made the covers of the Ceun tertcit Russia Oil so much like the Genuine, and even imitated the original Proprietor's nem; therefore purchasers thould be cau tious, and have it of the Proprietor, or of a respectable Perfumer or Medicine Vender. As several Lathes and Gentlemen in the country have complained that they have been taken in by unprie. opted persona sealing them counterfeit, theretere, by enclosing the money in a letter for the Russia Oil, tee. directed to Mr. Prince.
