Mr. Harriott was then placed in a warm bath. At eight o'clock the same moraine this eentle man was again sent for ; he found Mr. Harriott bleeding from several self-indicted wounds in different parts of his body. On the left tempfe was a slight wound, which had divided a branch of the temporal artily. In the left arm, below the elbow, was another w•ound,about two inches long, and about the fourth of an inch deep. The veins of the arms were only injured, Rad the artery untouched. The last slid most serious wound, was in the alnioincit, over the stomach. through which a portion of the intestines had protruded. This would have been mortal in most eases, from sit bsetint at inflammation, but was not considered so in the present instance, owing to to the ``profuse discharge of blood. 011 dissection after death, by order of the Coroner, the bladder was found highly ulcerated, and filled with enagulatcd blood, which, by the aide practitioners nho attentled,was eintsitlt red as the imme (Hate cans, or his death.

The door-keepers, who knew hint, opposed his entrance and he walked oft', pith a crowd of• men anal boys, through the Strand, into the city, committing various extravagant its. The keeper of this un fortunate gentleman, went to the Court of Chancery to seek his patient. He stated to the officers, that he saw the lunatic into bed at i t o'clock on Tuesday night, at his lodgings in Charles-street, Westminster, that 1w took away the clothes which he had worn in the day, and when he went to see him in the morning, to his great surprise he was not to be found. The only article missing from his room is n blanket, which, it is supposed, he rolled round him, having no other cover ing. The keeper stated, that he had made a most diligent but fruitless search after him. He was advised by the officers of the court to go and inform Mr. Carr, the Secretary of the Lunatics, of the circumstance, and he would communicate it to the Lord Chancellor.
