The brcthcr %art-tided the mare wood. and quiet in barrios. The plaintif f tritd the mare in 's cart, but she would not draw, and aliewas declared to be unseund by a veserinarr wire , •iit. The plaintiff applicil to the defendant's brother for !retitl ion of the Mee which was refused epoo the ground -that the tutu. was sou a nd warranted by a gentleman in Oxford. Santee' Henderson, a borne-dealer, stated that he was present when the defendant's Wolter declared that the mare vat gourd aril mile in harness. The bargain was not completed at that time. W.lliam Patine was present when the bargain was completed ; 191. was the price paid. 11 diem' Lastlo. rvant to the plaintiff, Pitt the mare In har ness in baker's car t. Site would not go. She had ban pushed forward for three quarters of a mile. The plaintiffwas in the cart, end the witness was at the mare's head. She Klicame restive; she 'eared, and, in the effort, broke the shaft. Witness took the mare to the defendant's brother, by the direction of his master, and told him that she would not go in harness. The brother refused to re turn the money, and said that the mare had been warranted by a gtiltleman at Oxford. Mutant Hall, a dealer in horses, stated that the mare did not appear to him to be accustomed to harness, bat he thought that by 'skilled management she might he useful. Jones Turner, a veterinary surgeon, mated that he examined the mare at the desire of the plaintiff, and she appeared to be un sound. Pot the defence, William Sabin, brother to the defendant, stated that be did not warrant the mare sound, neither did he undertake that she would go quiet in Mimesis. lle merely told the plaintiff that he had the mare in harness for some time, and the plaintiff agreed to take her, with all her Grate; at 191. If the mare bad no been blind of one eye, she would have been worth much more 21%. After the present action had been commenced the plaintiff to take M. and forego the action. The plaintiff issued an attachment against witness% brother for 19f., and the latter threat ened to Ivrea im indictment against him for perjury, grounded on the affidavit upon which tha attachment was issued. The RECORDER said that there were two warranties In this case—one as to soundness, and the other as to quietness in harness. If either of the warranties failed, the Jury would Mid for the plain tiff. It appeared front the evidence that the mare was neither quiet in harness nor sound. It was not necessary to have the word •• warranty" used in making the purchase. The mere assertion that a hope was quiet was sufficient. As to the threatened prose cution for perjury, he did not consider that it could be sustained, as the pia:miff bad ground for supposing that money was due to him. Verdict for the plaintiff-101. • I.

One of the defendants is the son, the other the shopmnn of Mr. isuodby, linen-draper, No. 3117. Holborn. The prosecutrix is a Portuguese by birth, and a married woman. Mr. PHILLIPS opened the ease-If the facts were truly stated, it was a case of the greatett aggravation of any time he had met with during the .short eaperience he Lail had in that Court; and he thought the Jury would be of the mane opinion with himself. The two young men at the bar welt: accused of assaulting the plosecutria, the wife of a respectable tradesman. at 29, Skinner street, Soiner's.town. Saundby was the son, and Kent the shop. ream of a linen-draper in Holborn. The prosecutria was at triteted by-a pattern that hum:, at the door, and wilt asked by one of them to walk In. After looking at several. there were none that took her fancy, and she was about to leave the shop, when Kent placed himself before her, and said, " Surely you are not going to leave Lhe shop in that shabby way, witbout buying." She begged that he would let liar go, as thee was nothing she approved of. Mr. Phillips supposed it was a new system liven-drapers had adopted, that no ore was 13 leave a shop without purchasing ; the women, besides, war in that alma talon which claimed protection rather titan insult. When again about to depart, Kent put his bands round her waist, flung her on her back on the counter, and behaved to her in a most indecent manner, for nothing but he-ause sae would not purchase; and this to a married woman ! She n a rarallygave him a slap on the a ree _to D oor , it," sa id one of them. " cut it, cut it; she must - , !"utes It," She thought he meant treat the article for her, whether she would or not ; but no-what! you think they wanted ? to cut the shawl off her back-and cut it they did. They also tore her veil, a new one. Alto that they sent for a constable, telling list she was a prostitute, ~rd not married. Greatly to the credit of the constable, he refutoal the charge and glad he wits of the (la lowrootty o f pay i a a a tribute to the respectable behaviour of the .wion, fo r h e was sometimes in the situation of being strongly op posed to coop:aides. After leaving the whop she went to a friend, who a ccompanied her to a police office, and obtoined a. warrant. or any denial is attempted of the fact, he had that of the cut gar ment'; let them not presume to deny it ; that was evidence they avoid not get rid of, unless they were atrocious enough to say she cut her own shawl. There was a third young man in the shop, • weer took no more active part than to keep off the mob collected at the door; him she had also charged at the pohce-office, in her dairy ; and It was not to be wondered at, inexperienced as she was. She was a foreigner-a Portuguese. l'he next morning she was token ill in consequence of her treatment, and was under the care to' a surgeon for a tor:night. Ile should not occupy more of the tone of the Jury, but leave them to hear the evideace ; after which they would have little hesitation in finding the prisoners guilty: Maria Ankers then deposed to the facts. as stated by Mr. PIAUI pt. Cease-examined by Mr. A HoLotto s-lfas been in this country twelve years. Was married in Portugal fourteen years ago. It was between one and two o'clock in the day when this business happened.

( gooey one, and certainly it is as extraordinary on one side as the e ther. His Learned Fritrd opposite bad talked cf the respectable hot of the attorney who brought it fontanel ; he trusted every aunt. ace r was respectable; he knew the attutney far the defendants to be rahreetable ; but that was not the question ; the question was, as to the peohabillty of the case; and according to his instructions the probability was all oa his side, and the improbability on the other. Wee It net natural, when a furious woman mete into a shop. that they should send for a constable to remove her ? If die facts rotted by her were true, hundreds of witnesses might have been produced. Was her stray at all to he credited, happening in the middle of the der, in an open shop, in a crowded street, in the middle of Hot beam, and that ton in the month of June, a time of the year when the sweet' were crowded? Good God ! gentlemen, it requires not merely English or Irish. but foreign invention, to give a colouring to such a statemeot. If the story of the ormerutrie war likely, when the strange woman who was spoken of, but not brought for. ward, came in, would the not have clamoured and ranted a mob, tam hundreds could have come to tell the tale? No, she brought tiCthridy tr she could not recollect even the address of the woman who came into the shop. The fact was, there was no woman to %ring; she could hying her Essexoareet friend, and John Carpen ter, who saw nothing ; but he should produce the third person who was io the sho, and who would state the contrary of what she had done, and the July would see on which side the probability lay. He should call Abraham Pairbank ; was prevent on the9ll of June; is in the employ of Mr. Saundby the shop is open to the street; the doors are taken off the hinges in the morning, and remain off till night; both - the prisooen were in the shop when the proseeutrix came in ; she - a print at the door marked Is. per yea, aud asked to have retry yards eat off; when it was brought WI she said she did nut like it, and would rather balk at WW11( whets.

When the officer came she was pacified, and went away. She was not thrown on the counter. Kent only held her arin ; there were no indecent liberties. Titan was no cutting -instrument introduced; their scissors were nut taken out of their pockete; linen-drapers always keep their scissors In their waistcoat or coat pockets. No indecency could have taken place without his seeing it. Not any person came Into the Atop— no woman ; she was not in the shop longer than a quarter of an hour at the outside. Witness was present from first to last. Mr. ADOLPHUS to Mr. have done with him; do you wish to ask him any questions? Mr. Pitt ttirs.—Vuu may go home, young man. Ann Butterfield was in the service of Mr. Situndby in June. Hearing a noise while in the kitchen, site came up to the parlour, and saw 31ra. Ankers striking Saundby. She did not see the be ginning, and did not atop. That was 411 she did see. Mr. Pitt ttars-3ly ditty compels me to follow up my intent perate opening by an equally intemperate reply. I had reason to believe the statement not exaggerated, and I have so found ft. When I cease to feel for the cause of the softer sex of our nature, I hope my heart will cease its functions. The prosteutrix was one defenceless woman againstthrec heroes—heroes of the yard, at least. Mr. Adolphos talked of the improbability of the facts ; but they are proved. What was the evldence.uf Fairbank ?—that they bore it patiently. Poor lambs ! they bore it patiently ; that a man s that two men, were pummelled with their own yard. and. bore it patiently ! They were struck, and bore it patiently ! Poor lambs ! What objects of pity ! and bore it patiently ! It had been objected she did not complain to the constable how she had Wen used ill : she could not go into the particulars to a man. She owned to striking them, but that she was ill-used first. He wou'd appeal to the beset and mind divested of artifice if there was any imprkabllity in her story? lie gave the prisoners credit, aftr r their wanton, cruel, and atrocious conduct, that they had a reintumt of conscience to prevent their appealing to their God as te the truth of a charge of assault, which they wisely thought fit not to persist in. There would have been three to swear to it—Fair bank and therr.selves, besides the young lady who last gave evi dence; she sees the mischief, and walks away ; he believed she was the first woman that ever did escape from mischief. The prisoners would not venture to screw their consciences like the man buttoned 1 1 tip to the throat (Fairbank). 'What does he say ? Why, she threw the print on the floor and damned herself. Throws the print on the floor and damns herself ! Then she is dest-ed to sit down. What was the probability of the conduct of Kent? If you don't buy I beg you'll walkout; be patient and I'll serve you. Mr. Adolphus said it was possible the garment might have been Own ; the gar ment shall go into the jury-box ; the garment shall speak for itself. He asked the Jury, on the oath they had taken, whether a cutting instrument had not been applied to the shawl. As to the veil, Mrs. Walker saw that whole at eleven o'clock. His Learned Friend op posite had talked of Irish invention; lie could say of the people of that country, that at the meanest hovel the stranger and the foreigner would always find protection and a friend, and he asked no more for this ill-treated foreigner, who sought protection from the hands of the Jury that day. Mr. COteST said he had little to remark on the case ; either Mrs. Ankers had perjured herself or the yoang man had. The Jury would look at the probability of the two stories, and balance them. If they believed the statement of the proseeutrix, they would find their verdict for her ; if they believed what the young man had sworn, they were bound by their tech to find a verdict for the pri. soners. He put to the Jury the probability of such a circumstance happening in such a street as Holborn, in the middle of the day. Mrs. Ankers or Mr. Fairbank have sworn falsely ; he contradicted her in almost every particular. The Jury examined the shawl, and found the defendants Guilty. Mr: CoasT said, taking the facts ea the Jury had adopted them put the statement beyond a contradiction. He would defer the judgment of the Court till Saturday, to give the parties an oppor. tuoity for an adjustment. Mr. Phillips had left the Court; AIL Butler, who attended for Mr. Blamer, was consulted as to whether he would permit the pl. inners out of custody on their own bail till Saturday at ten o'clock. He sent for Mr. Phillips. Mr. Putt rPS said the prisoners were in the hands of public jun. tier, and he should not consent to their liberation. It was x case in which every female of the metropolis was concerned. 111 r. CONsT —They say it is a publleprinecution, which throws an unpleasant duty on me to pronounce the judgment of the Court. I say unpleasant, because I hoped that some adjustment would have been come to by Saturday. The judgment of the Court is that I you, Aaron Kent, be imprisoned for one month, and that you, Thomas Saunby, be imprisoned also one , month, in the House of Correction. Rirlanrd Smith and Edward froward were indicted for assault. ing Shsannah Geskin, a poor creature with the ague, and who bad five children. Smith is a broker, end Howard a constable; they went to die train her goods while site was out. Smith had a large piece of tim ber on his shoulder, which .he called his weapon. The woman at templed to get in at the window, when Smith pushed her back by a blow on her bosom, by which her hand was act; and Howard threw a washing.tub at her. Mr. Coxier —lieu have been in the habit of having the upper hand over the poor creatures you seize on, and think to have it lure, but you shall not. If you choose to oppress poor people yes must take the consequences. This desolate sick woman deserves the same protection as any other. The judgment of the Court is, that you pay a tine of 5!. each, with liberty to speak to the pro secutrix.. Smith said he had not a shilling ; however be afterwards pro duced ar. which was given to the poor woman. Mr. PHILLIPS, having been retained in a cause for her In the April Sessions, conducted her carte this time gratis. James Newsome was Indicted for assaulting Elizabeth, the wife of John Richaeds, on the 18th of May last. Mr. PRENDERGAST stated, for the prosecution, that this was an assault of a very aggravated nature. The husband of the com plainant is unfortunately confined for debt in White Crowe-street Prison. On the day before mentioned the complainant had, by a warrant, taken the defendant to Worship - street Police -office, but charge was dismissed, on the defendant .promising to keep the peace towards her in future. On leaving the office, however, he met with her in the passage, and immediately struck her violently on the back. • The facts were fuUy moved, and the prisoner was fined lie. ed. to the King, sad bound in his own recognizance of 2W. to keep Ohs peace in future. .51r,Johs Day. a person of respectable appearance, was indicted for trawl and corrupt perjury. Mr. ALLEY stated the case. The defendant had been employed to collect rents fur a Mr. John Dixon. who had been appointed receiver by the Court of Chancery ; he had been so employed for three years. In the course of that transaction he had occasion to levy a distress for rent, respecting which there was a dispute, which j eventually led to an action in the Court of Common Pleas, where' the defendant was examined, and the evidence given was the al. leged perjury ; and, as the indictment charged, lie swore that he had never been employed by Mr. Dixon to receive rents for him, nor had he given any receipts for such rent. He then called a wits nees to produce the record, but it was not to Court. The defendant was therefore acquitted. • Mr. IlitonEarex, who was Counted for the defendant, stated, that the pmeeettion sass most malicious one; the averments in the indictment were, in fact, the very reverse to what the defendant had sworn. The whole matter was got up by a man named Sharp, who *mod in the pillory a short time since (as we understood) in Suffolk. Shurp was in Court, and sorely felt the remark of the Learned Counsel, and hinted something about bringing an action for libel. lily. BRODERICK—Bring your action ; the feet is eel have stated. and I have eleven witnesses to prove it. A more respects. ble man than the defendant does not exist. ENSUING OLD BAILEY SESSIONS.

M AN BION-HOUSE.—Yesterday, Captain Martin, of the General Steam Navigation Company's Ramsgate vessel, the City of Lon don, appeared before the Lord Mayor, to answer a complaint made by a Vl'ateintan, charging the Captain with having wilfully in jured his boat. The Waterman made a general complaint of the conduct of these Captains, who, he said, superseded the orders of the Lord Mayor that the fares should be taken in turns, anti preferred some Witter men to the prejudice of others, and, in fact, set all regulations-at defiance.

EMBEZZLEMENT. GUILDUALL.—A miserable-looking young men. named Tr. T. {Veils. was brought up before Sir NITER LAURIE, charged by '%. Wood, a 'ire-worker, in Newesade-strseti Fleet-market, with robbing him of sundry articles. The e .se was handed orer to the Session. SINGULAR CASE OF BASTARDY. Bow-renege.—Yesterday Major Sweeny appeared before She R. Birnie, to show cause why he should not give security to Or': Overseers of the Parish of S t .l3lartin's-in.the.Fields. that an ille gitimate child, of which he was the hither, should not become chargeable to that parish. • The Major was attended by his Solicitor and qeveral officers of the army, and soon afterwards a young and handsoinewoman, most elegantly dressed, attended by a servant, with a child in her arms, came into the Office with several friends. The Solicitor for the Major spoketo Sir Richard Bernie in atone of voice to us inaudible, and t.ir Richard replied, " Well, as the kleaop Is so very anxious not to be shown up, - 1 will hear the matter Mae private room." The parties went into the private room, and after hearing ?he itlatement of the mother of the child, and the answer to th e char g e bp the Major, Sir.R. Bienle recommended the latter to settle the E:!,er wiih the parish by paying for the child's support. The ler said bit would. not; be would rather carry this ease to the ions, because he was positive he was not the tether of the I And. Sir RICHARD BtwNtr. asked him if he would amertt that no in- Wwurse had taken place between him and the mot/sniff the child ? The Major replied, that he was not bound to answer ths% question ; but he was satisfied he was not the lather. Miss Ireland, the sister of the well-known swinf'llee of (that name, who was committed some time ago, stated she w 4a intimately, acquainted with Major Sweeny, in 1825. On the Ilth. of Norma her in that year, she iraadelivered of a girl, who was. christens f, at St. Martin's church. " Georgian& Augusta." She bad btieoutg, chargeable to the parish of St. Martio's-in-the-Fields. Thereafter, of that child was that gentleman (pointing to the defentia Major John Paget Sweeny. The Major laughed, and said, " have not the honour to be the papa." • . Miss Ireland was shortly crose.essmined by the Ma jor, and re. have lived with a Mr. Mountain ; 1 became infirm-de with • Mountain in 1819, an 4 have cohabited with bins at different loci g ings s in c e that period I lived with lilip is Barrossa.p' Wee, in Mount-street, in the' Haymarket, and in VI hers-sireet, Strand. I did not sleep with him every night when we lodged in the Hay. market ; I there commonly slept on a sofa, though Mount sin slept in the hosson the time. Illajor—,l have been at all the lodgings. and can prove by wit newest new in the office that you. sod 31ountain," Invariat dy from 1819.„ lived as man and wife together, and pouted as Mr. at id Mts. Mooutain ; and I can prove that there was co sofa in the house where you lodged in the Haymarket. ' Miss Ireland persisted that there was a sofa. She said that she never admitted to any person Itt•Mount-street that the child was .lr. Mountain's, nor did she say, as she remembered, tha t her mother, who lived in.lreland, had the cue of two other children which she had had by Mountain. The Major said be could pore her gnilty of perjury. • • Mr. HALLS said that the only way he could legally do that wi\s, by producing the record of her conviction for that offence In some Court of lustier. Sir R. HiRWIC observed, that the Major had declined saying that he had not been sufliciently intimate with the young woman as to render it possible he might be the father of the child ; and ad. mitting the fact that she hail slept with Mountain every night, still she was certainly the hest judge who was the father (laughter), ' and lter oath must be taken. Still. if the Major thought proper, he might take the case on appeal to the Sessions. The Major said that it was a conspiracy to extort money from him to support the bastard of Mountain, and he certainly would carry the case to the Sessions. Sir RICHARD BIRNIE said it might be very true, but he was hound to believe the woman on her oath, and ordered the Major to pay ed. weekly, and the costs previously incurred. • The Major produced bail to prosecute his appeal at the Sessions. ASSAULT ON A WATCHMAN. Frigiain Harris was brought up yesterday before Sir RICHARD RIRNIE, on a charge of having committed an assault on Robert Thompson, a watchman*, who stated, that a gang of about twenty persons rushed out of the Fountain publie-bouse in Clare-street, at a late hour last night, excited gresttumult, and threatened annihi lation ur every person who should have the tnisfortunt to come In their wsy. They knocked down three or four watchmen, but he socezetled in apprehending the prisoner, who was one of the number, and told witness if he dared to detain him he would do fur him ; but Charley was not to be intimidated in the discharge of his duty by such vain threats. The prisoner laughed at the statement of the watchman, which ho 'tanned Sir Richard Birnie was a lie from beginning to end ; but the worthy Magistrate was not.quits satisfied witif this version of the transaction, but referred him to a Jury of his country, to abide their decision. DISORDERLY HOUSES. _ _ Three women were brought up on the information of Mr. Raw. line, an overseer of the parish of SL Martin's, for keeping houses of ill-fame in Leg-alley, Long-acre. One of them had along with her two pretty little girls about ten years of age, neatly dressed, whom she stated to be her own diughters. Sir R. Blum E was shocked to perceive such children brought ap in the path-of iniquity i but the Itlmiter Abbess said that be was mistaken, as her house was none 01 the common sort, nothing was practised within her doors inconsistent with strict morality, not withstanding she kept a bad house. The three were committed to take their trial at the Sessions. EXTORTION.

They had got hold of her feet and hands, and one of them had her hair twisted in his fingers. When she was put into the watch-house he wished to get in to see her, but was not allowed, and was then taken prisoner lam the watch-house.

The Magistrete directed that she should be called. One of the officers then bellowed forth the name of Walker three times, in an audible voice. No answer having been returned, Rayner was told that he might go about his business as soon as he pleased, no one appearing . to make any charge against him. Rayner—My reputattom is one, Sir. A heavy charge was laid at my door, and I have come here to disprove it. Walker accused me of bottling a 1111. note: the accuestion has appeared in the public papers, and I humbly conceive that she should be compelled to attend, to substantiate it. Mr. CHAsiaens—l cannot compel her to attend. You leave this office perfectly fiee of any imputation on your character. What trade are you ? Rayne:s-1 am a shoemaker, Sir, and live in the parish of Lambeth. "Then I should advise you," said the Magistrate, " to gd home and nnensi . your shoes, and not bother your head anymore about the business.' Rayner then left the office, apparently chagrined that an investi gation Into the charge had not teren place. FEMALE MANIAC. An unfortunate maniac, named Lydia Junes, supposed to have escaped from some lunatic establishment, was placed at the bar. Ifer wild appearance evinced the dreadful malady with which she was afflicted. A watchman stated, that on the previous night the wretched woman made a most violent attack on several persons passing through. High-street. Site also approached a shop, and dashed her fists. which were cut in a dreadful manner, through several panes of glass. On his proceeding to secure her for the purpose of pre venting further muichief, which she seemed bent on, her drone to escape were astonishing, no less than six men having been en. gaged to prevent it. A her having given an immensity of trouble, she was at length lodged in a place of security, and brought up to this office. Mr.Cizamnxna,sleairous of ascertaining who she waa,or where she came from, approached the place s in which she was confined, and began to question her. At arse she answered him goodmaturedly, which induced the worthy Magistrate to dr,tw still closer ; the ma. went, bhwever, he was within arms' length of her, she made a most violent blow at his face, but fortunately lie drew back, and received no further injury than a slight scratch, one of hef nails coming in contact With the side of his nose. 'he then became completely out rageous, and during the paroxysm was placed in a coach, one of the officers being directed to see her taken into the Parish Work.. house until her late abode should be discovered. HORRID MUIIDER. The neighbourhood of Great Saffror-hill is In the highest degree of horror and alarm, ;n consequence of the discovery, at nine o'clock yesterday rooming, of a murder, committed at No. Lily-street. The Unfortunate victim is a woman named Ambrose, wife of a shoemaker, and supposed to be sixty years of age. The circulnatieem under which the murder was supposed to be com mitted are as follow. : James Ambrose, husband of the deceased, came home on Satur day fast, about ten o'clock, and immediately went out again. say ing to a lodger in the house that there was 110 peace for him at home, the old woman was drunk again. Ile again returned at twelve, aednothing more was known until, on Swale; morning, a loung man named Ilrown, lodging in the next room, said to the andlady that he was afraid something was the matter, as Ambrose and his wife were fighting in the night, and he heard the woman, after a violent blow had been struck, exclaim, " Lord receive my soul I" After which a deathlike silence ensued. In the course of Sunday, Ambrose told the landlady that his wife was gone to her sister's, who lived at Hampstead, and would got return till Men. day, anti in the course of that day he several times came in and in quired if she had retained ? and was answered in the negative. He again made the same inquiry, hut hesitaingly, as if weld of hearing an answer. During the whole of Moeday night he did not come home, and when Brown got up yesterday morning he ob served the door ajar, but the lock shot, aid without the key. He mentioned this circumstance, and Mrs. Jay, tile landlady, went up stairs, knowing Amliros'e had not been home, and knocked at the door, expecting that- she should see his wife. No answer being given she pushed the ,tor, and saw the bonnet and shawl worn by deceased hanging up; she became alarmed and ran down stairs, atatirg her suspicions to Brown and another, who went up to ascertain the real state of the case. On first entering the room nothing extraordinary was visible; but on turning behind the door, a most appalling sight met their view. The wretched woman lay extended on tita grouud wel•ering in her blood, which appeared to hrve proceeded from the right side of the head, where several dreadful wounhis were visible. She appeared to have been dragged across the room, as the track of blood was distinctly seen on the floor. The body was concealed by two chairs with sacks spread on them ; and it was evidently fast approaching a state of deco/npo. sition. There is little doubt of th.- deed havirg been committed /at Saturday night or Sanday morning. Strict search is making for Ambrose. run, .sra PARTICULARS. Yesterday informaticintyas received at this office of a murder having been committed, it is presumed. on Saturday morning. at the house of a man named J.ty, No. 4, Idly-street, Satfron.hill. and Read, senior, the chief pcact.officer, was ordered to make the ne cessary inquiries, of which th S following appears to be the result. The name of the deco sel is Mary Perry, and she had for some time cohabited with a shoeua liter, named John Ambrose, who Ms. merly resided at Hampstead., Ambrose, whe is about 64 years old, was extremely addicted to di ink, and when in that state was gene rally violent and quarrelsome. For come months the deceased and he had lived on very unhappy terms, she upbraiding him, and he answering her complaints with blows. On Friday night Ambrose had been out later than usual, and coming home in a state of in toxication, he was attacked by the deceased, when it is believed he struck her a violent blew on the - head, which knocked her down, for a heavy fall was heard by the .people who occupy the apartment underneith, but as these contentions were not untrequent, no notice was taken of it at the dote, anet they soon after became quiet. On the following morning (Saturday) Ambrose went out early, carefully locking the dour, and ad riot return until late the saute night. when he asked Mrs. Jay, who keeps a small chandler's shop, whether she had seen Marv, itneaning the deceased. Mrs. Jay said that she had not seen her the whole day ; and Ambrose ob served, it was no matter, for slit• was a curse to him—he presumed that she was gone oil, as she hat t done before on more than one occasion. He then went up to Cis wow, and went out as usual on Sunday, the door being locked 'as before. On Monday, in reply to some questions put by thi. lodgers in the house, relative to the absence of the deers sed,i he gave the same evasive explanation that he had given to the landlady. On Mon day night Ambrose came hon to late, and, though in a very helpless state of intoxication, MI would not allow any person to assist him up stairs, and on crowing his room he was heard to se ' cure the dour inside ; but it is believed he did not go to bed, for he was heard pacing the room until t in advanced hour in the morning, when he went out. The lodger), though somewhat satisfied with the explanation which Ambrose I tad given, in regard to the absence of the woman who passed for 114 wife, were induced to go up to the room, where they were surprised to find a strongdisagreeable stench about the door, which they limn d unlocked, and on further exa mination they found the bodyq f the unfortunate woman lying on the floor, in a small space betty; en the bed and the wall, three or four chairs being ranged in a line between the corpse and the win dow, and a sack hung on them, so as effectually to screen the corpse from the observation of the pettple inhabiting the opposite house. Ir is needless to say that it was then Miff and cold ; in fact it had been so for three days, and emitted a very strong smell, owing to the closeness of the room and foe heat of the atmosphere. From the appearance of the body, it did not seem that any sharp or pointed weapon had been employed in the work of destruction, as no wounds were perceptible, eteept two on the arm, which seems to have been bitten, probably in the strug4le between them. The head, particularly towards the bus of the skull, bears the principal marks of violence, traces of arterial blood being found in the cavity of the ear, on the side on whiel the body was reclining; the face considerably bruised, and there are some contusions about the temple. The circumstance quickly obtained publicity, and the whole neighbourhood was thrown into confusion. Darnley, the beadle, was called in, and immediate search was made for Ambrose, who was in the habit of doing some occasional jobs for a shoemaker in Hatton-wall, but it appeared that he had pat been there for several days ; however, as it was known that he formerly resided at Hampstead, and had some relatives still living these, it was imaginal that he in ell probability had taken refuge with them, and Hanalei, accompanied by Jay, the lardlord of the house, went to Hampstead yesterday morning, in pursuit of him, hut without beinr enabled to get arty tidings eider of Ambroae or his friends, who are gone to another part of the country to work. The officers, however, ere on the look-out ; and as he is well known to many of them, there can be very little doubt as to his speedy apprehension. 'The body still remains undisturbed at the haute in Lily-street, to await the result of the Coroner's Inquest, which will be holden this day. A person of gentlemanly figure end deportmeot, who subscribed his name A. 13, A& Donald, attracted much at tention in this town on Friday last, as he perambulated the , streets playing the Scotch bagpipes ; a man in the character of a servant walking behind bim.

FEVER IN LIMERICK. as On Thursday a meeting was held at Ale Cornmercialthuildin i Limerick, pursuant to advertisement ; the subj ect . f or discussio% were the alarming progress of fever in various p arts o f the city, and the crowded state of the hospitals. The Mayon, at the unanimous request of the *seem*, t ook the chair, and briefly explained the occasion for whi c h the ha d ." met. Ile felt ft, lie said, his duty to call the inhabitants together with as little delay as possible. nu an emergency so urgent the present, and he would now be happy to receive the suggestion s 0 any of his fellow-citizens who might be disposed to speak e n thi ; important subject. I factor Hear/MG then rose and addressed the Chair. fi e ~,4 he was une of the Committee who signed the requisition to tilt Mayor. calling for this meeting, in consequence of the crowded ou, expenditure, of the hospitals and the great increase of lever. So numerous sae peeping have been the applications roc admission on behalf of fer e , patient* that many persons, both male aid female, must be turned out of the Lick Hospital, to provide accommodation for dam. parish, to inquire into the This certainly would be a sad alternative, but under the dream. stances so other can be resorted to, if measures are not taken ire. mediately for enlarging the wards, and allocating more room for the sufferers. At present patients are lying on the floor between the beds, as the apartments are insufficient for their 'commod e . lion. The Hospital wants funds to meet its increased and if something were not very speedily effected by the inhabitam s °al it§ :h al e d co iff m er m e i n t t te s e tree in ts ea a r n h d lanes, the condition of the of the city of Limerick, the consequences to society would be most dangerous. It appeared to him that remedies might be applied by and the nuisance', such art dunghills and other filth ; s f p cin twe t e t or ti ti g lof a e L e s: then to take on the parishioners, by voluntary assessment, a lam that would serve to avert any further increase of fever, by whim washing and cleansing the sewers and smaller lanes, removing therefrom those pestiferous dunghills, washing their besLclothes, and purifying their narrow apartments. He would also recommend that a memorial should he addressed to the Lord Lieutenant, ray, iog further assistance to the funds of the Hospital ; a grant of 'ix hunched to eight hundred pounds from Government "amid enaid e the Committee to give an increased accommodation to patients, by extending the building and fitting up more wards. Tee CO.t, mince bad before now received proposals on the subject, and redeemed that such a sum would accomplish the object, lie aitis prepared with no resolutions, but the propositions he begged to submit were simply the three which he lust recapitulated : t e e f or . ..loration of parochial committees—the collection of a voluntaty hind and a memorial to Government, which he merely offered for the consideration of the meeting. The statement of Dr. Harding was received with satisfaction, and a desultory conversation ensued as to the mode of carrying his suggeetions into effect. The LORD Burop remarked, that they could not now arsil themselves of the Act of Parliament for the formation of Wu* of Health, as the period appointed by law had elapsed ( )larch last). A fund, created by the voluntary assessment of a gevarai parochial meeting, he should think would be very trifling to the inhabitanu, if the subject was brought home to their feelings, and the Stli9llll (larger which impinds clearly and earnestly explained to theta._ (Hear.) Bev. Mr. DUI/DELI. said there were Boards of Health already in the parishes of St. hlunchin and St. John. The i4113110P expressed himself gratified at the comrnseicatith, and said It was their duty to bring themselves Into immediate operation. The Mayon said he could confirm, from personal knowledge, the filthy and unwholesome state of many of the houses in at. Mary's parish. In some cf the dwellings of the poor, dunghill§ *tastily eais:ed close to the b ds of the inmates. Dr. BRODIE addressed the Chair, making a voluntary.offer of his professional services as physician to the new wards that moy be opened by the Committee ; and he was also of opinion that ti a other junior members of the profession would do the same. The communication of Dr. Brodie was received with pleasureby the meeting; a series of resolutions were prepared, put from its chair, and passed unanimously. The Lord Bishop was then voted to the chair, on the motion of Alderman hlahony ; and Archdeacon hlaunsell, in complimentary terms, moved the thanks of the Meeting to the Mayor, which having passed by acclamation, the Mayor expressed himself seesible of their kindness, and the assembly dissolved ionnediaiely aka.
