'SIURDER OF A CHILD BY ITS FATHER. Richt , (loverjlekl was Indicted for the wilful murder of Richard, llis Wane son, of three months old, effected by administering to him tad 'WWI: The prisoner, a man apparently in the con dition of a labourer, about 3 years of age, pleaded "Not I/Why." He challenged three Of the jurymen, who accordingly • ilel - 9r. M- S - ..ewtO dated the ease for the prosecution, and rolled a number of withedies. Louise Davies was then examined by Mr. RYAN, and gave vet dance as follows :—I am the wife of Jonathan Ihvies, who lives of Hridgenorth. In September last we were near neighbours to the prisoner, who worked at the carpet-manufactory in that place. He n child which was three mond s old on the morning of its death. Between eleven and twelve o'clock on Sunday morning, the 21 ‘ 1 Sertenallelai heard a hest) screaming from the priso ner's wife. 'ltis red me immedivotly to the prisoner's house. There I saw the woman to the kitchen, near the table, holding the child, which was a sucking child, to her bosom. The prisoner was there, and several other persons. His wife put the child's mouth to her month, and her tongue into the mouth, and said something wade her mouth smart, and felt hot, sour, and bitter. She Mill to her husband, "Oh, Dick ! Dirk ! what have done to my child ?" He repht " Nothing at all, my wench ; but the black cat got up to the child's mouth, and brought foam up, and I knocked it off." The lips of the child were blistered and white with foam. Mrs. Overfleld left the house with the child, to go to the doctor's, in great distress. Mr. Edward John Spry Paid—ln September last I was an assist ant to Mr. Hall, a surgeon at Bridannorth. Between eleven and twelve o'clock in the forenoon of the 2lst of thst month, M rs. Over. held cane to me, and Draught her child. She was in a state of Brest agitation, and was crying violently ; so match so, that for a time she ww; 'unable to tell her errand. She pointed to the child's moth, and desired me to taste its lips. I did so, and found a very pungent acid taste, which no female milk could give. The lips were white and shrivelled, and had small blisters on their inner Purface. There were similar appearances on the mouth and tongue. The child appeared in violent agony, and threw itself about so tom a was difficult to hold it steady. I concluded the child had swallowed some acid, and surmised from the taste it was sul phuric acid, which is popularly called oil of vitriol, and is one of the strongest mineral poisons. As I thought the caaeof importance, wished Mr. Hall to see the child : he accordingly saw it, and, on consult:Oen, we agreed to give niagnusia suspended in water, to deutralize the acid, and alternately diluent drinks, as gruel and bailey water. Mrs. Overfleld left the house with the child, and I almost immediately followed to see that my directions were pro.' pair ohs/eve& When I retired, I found the room nearly hlled Witt. the nen,thbours, one of whom held the child on her lap, and was administering the magnesia. I asked the prisoner if he had given the child any fond, or any medicine by mistake: he replied that he had not, but bad merely knocked the black cut of the child. I asked where the cat was? Ile Paid it was out. I or dered it to be brought; it was brought; I asked the prisoner if that was the at; lie said, " Yes." 1 examined the paws and the mouth of the cat, but found nothing unusual; and putting my Sager to its mouth tasted it ; and found no trace of acid. I said the child had swallowed oil of vitriol, which was poison, and asked they had any is the house? He said, " No." I examined care fully, but found suite. I asked the prisoner if he knew what oil of 'MAI was ? He said, " No." I explained its ordinary uses, as to snake blacking and clean brasses ; but he said he knew nothing or it. About one, I found the infant vas incapable of swallowing ; soon after it breathed with difficulty and nurse; the extremities grew coil; the powers of life were evidently sinking; and at three clock the child died. Two other witnesses were examined, whose evidence was condo si•e in support of the indictment. Edward Hoodall, examined by Mr. SLANEY, said—On Mon day, September 22, I went to the house of the prisoner. A phial was delivered to me there, in the presence of Louisa Davies. I took the bottle to Mr. Hall, and showed it so him and Mr. Spry, -*no poured three drops out of it. I have kept it ever since. After tl.e prisoner was taken, on Thursday. the 25th of September, he was at my house, waiting to be brought to Shrewsbury. Before he Went, his wife cam to see him. She said, "My dear Dirk, go down wt your knees, and pray to the Almighty to forgive you for what you have dune, and always have the truth in your mouth." He answered, " I have the truth at my tongue's end, but I dare tot speak it." "My dear wench ! (he added) you have got my watch ; keep it for my sake, as I ',hull never come back, and give my eltehee to my poor old father." The prisoner's house is in this county. Joseph Hall, the surgeon, examined by lair. Items, 'Ma— -1 tasted the lips of the child which were blistered, and found they had an acid taste on them. I attended the Coroner's inquest, and 'opened the body of the child. On laying open the cavity of the telly, a blood-coloured fl uid escaped ; nearly a pint which re-' -attained was preserved for the purpose of examination. The great curve:are of the stomach was-corroded, and reduced to a black sub stance of the consistence of wet boos n paper. The gullet was con tracted, and the internal lining corroded. The innnbrane lining the mouth and tongue was of a dull white colour. The lips were nutemollv Isfistered, and externally they were of a dark colour. I analyeed the substance found in the child, and detected a conaider quantity-of sulphuric acid, or oil of vitriol, which was quite 4:aficient to produce the effects which I saw. tiondall gave a phial to Mr. Spry in my presence, and he poured out a drop ; 1 analyzed it. and 'fitund it to he oil of vitriol, like that found in the stomach. -A much lees quantity of oil of vitriol than that found in the sto mach was suSUent to cause the death of the child. I have no doubt 'whatever that oil of vitriol was the cause of its death. 31r. Spry twins recalled. stated that he entirety agreed with Mr. NA in his opinion, and had no doubt that the tail of vitriol found yid the clrild's stomach occasioned its death. - • Mr.Dugard, a physician in extensive practice at Shrewsbury, awing tat...tided to the evidence, gave a as his opinion that the ; quantity of oil of vitriol described as found in the stomach of the • add would 'induce death. He bad analysed a part of the content* . .ssf the immesh, since diluted, and traced oil of vitriol. lie had Mad common people soak of children dying from a eat sucking otbbir breath ; but be did not believe it. . . . .

Mr. Hall, being recalled on behalf of the prisoner, said, oil of • vitriol was applied to the boors of cattle on certain occasions, and hi an undiluted state. This was the ease for the prosecution. • Mr. Justice FAUN informed the prisoner, that this was the time for him to make his defence. The prisoner, who seemed at first scarcely to understand the question, at length said he only wished to say that he was innocent Of the mane. Mr. Comm., said that as the prisoner had already reeei►ed an • eitvtlent character from the witnesses for the prosecution, be alioald ant call witnesses to speak to his humane disposition. Mr. Justice Pane after expressing Ids satisfaction at the groat attention paid by th e to this moetalhopertant case, rate .her the whole evidence, and commented on its bearings. • The Jerry, after a consultation of two or throe minutes, returned - 6 verdict of Crii/fy. ' Mr. Justice PARK TROCOOded to address the prisoner to the fol lowi,g effe.et :—•• Richard Overlield, you have been convicted, att .r a most full and sausfactiry trial, oo evident% which has left mu doubt on the mind of any man who has beard it, of the murder tif your own child, the fruit of your body, and whom yon were bound by every tie of nature to protect and to cherish. The only elfeculty which the Jury could for an instant fool, but which the • espight of proof completely overcame, was in cienceiving • motive Which mild lead you to take away the life of ate.infant which was incurable of offending you, by the most horrible means.

I have only ene consolation as respects you—that you have now been for six months in prison, and that you entered it with a conviction of the punish ment which awaited y our crime ; and, therefore.

Jolla Adams, • tallow-chandler, of No. 171, Whiteman street, appeared to an information, charging him with certain breaches of tht! Excise Laws, by which the following penalties be came forfeited :—For making candles without a declaration, 501.; for making more candles than stated in the declaration, 501.; for removing candles before they were weighed, 1001. ; and for rtsdipping candles after they were weighed, 101.; in all 2101. It appeared that the defendant had been tined once before by the Boanl for similar acts. The Board convicted him upon three counts, in mitigated penal ties, amounting to 351. Mr. William Jamr, a snuff and tobacco merchant, of No. 4, New-street, rovent-garden, appeared to an information, charging him with having an excess of seventeen pounds of rappee in hill possession. It appeared that the defendant's stock was examined by the officer on the 1:1th of February • and on tht 4th of March, on exa mining it again, thee app,are;l an increase of seventeen pounds, without it appearing Ify the permits that he had received any fresh supply. The defendant stated that he was obliged to be 'burnt from town, and had left the care of the shop to his father, who had :catered the snuff more than he ought to have done, and this was the occa sion of the increase. He declared that he had been a great suf. fever; for by its being so damp. it had made it musty and unfit for sale. The officer admitted that part of the snuff in the shop was damper than usual. The Hoard remitted the fine, but condemned the snuff. Danirl Crozier, a Merman, was charged with having in his pos session two gallons of spirits, which had not paid the duty, by which he had iaeurred the penally of 1001. Benjamin Holland, an officer, stated, that, on the 2fith of Feb. in consequence of some information he had received, he went to the Ship public-house, in Shadweli, and saw the defendant with • basket, apparently filled with leeks, hut, on turning them over, folind two bladders, one containing brandy, and the other gin. The defendant had tittered to do all in his power towed, discover ing where the still was at work, but had not yet been able to accom plish it. The defendant pleaded distress, which had drove him to the em. ployment of disposing of the spirits for other persona who belonged to the still. Ile begged hard to be forgiven. He was convicted in the *gated penalty of 201. Witham Setrry was charged with having in his possession 1431b5. of tea, without • permit. On the sth February, about six o'clock in the morning, while John Baker, in the employ of Mr. White, a timber-merchant, at :Milbank, was going to his work, he saw the defendant with his horse and cart, and two men Mlle towards him with two sacks, which they put into the cart. Baker spoke to them, and front their answers he suspected that all was not right, and went towards' the cart to see what the sacks contained, when the men ran off. Ile questioned the defendant respecting the contents of the sacks, but he professed ignorance on that subject. Baker then looked into the sacks, and found them full of tea. In consequence he took the prisoner, horse, cart, and tea, and delivered them into the custody of Gilmour and Cooper, of Quern-square police-office, where the defendant underwent three examinations, on suspicion of having stolen the tee, but it was not ascertained w h ere the tea had been stolen from. Mr. Marshall, a grocer of Islewonit, who had been robbed of a quantity of tea, wended at Queen-square, but could not identify the sea: the defendant was accordingly dis charged, and the tea sent to the Excise-office. Since then, upon petition, the tea has been delivered to Mr. 3lfirs'tsll. The defendant said he knew nothing of the men, except that they employed his horse and cart to carry the sacks; but he did nut know their contents. Ile had been drawn into the affair by the men who had ran away. The Board remitted the penalty, but condemned the hone and cart. POLICE. GUILDHALL.

Mr. Cowie said he was rather merry, and receiving no answer from the box as usual to his civil " good night," he took the door or the hinges and walked away. It was foolish, but he would not repeat it. He was with a respectable linendraper. The Magistrate admonished and discharged hint. HACIINZT-COACH FARLII.—Mr. Boat* was charged by W.'

BOW STREET. EZTEKIIIIVE FOROERlEll.—Yestertlay folio fill fragthZ who but a short time ago carried on an extensive trade as a mrpet dealer in Skinner-street, Snow-hill, was brought up in the custody of Bishop, one of the principal officers, charged with forging and uttering a forged check for 2601. wi:h intent to defraud. Before the case wan gone into, Bishop produced to Sir Richard Binsie a placard, which some months ago was very extensively cir culated throughout the metropolis and country, offering a reward of BM. for the apprehension of the prisoner, for having committed divers forgeries upon the London banking-houses, and also for having incurred the penalty of outlawry, in not having surrendered to a commission of bankruptcy. The present case, however, was distinct from those alluded to in the placard. It appeared from the testimony of several witnesses, that on Friday night last the prisoner slept at the Old nommen', in Co-, vent.garden, and on Saturday morning he desired the waiter to procure him a ticket-porter. The waiter, however, sent up the porter employed in the house, who offered his services, but the prisoner said he preferred having a ticket-porter, and desired bim to fetch one from the Temple. Ile did so, and one of that frater nity, named John Burt, waited upon the prisoner, who in the first place desired him to fetch a 2s. 'bill stamp from a shop which he named in Long Acre. When he returned, the prisoner gave him a cheek fur 2501., drawn by William Ridley upon John Bond, Lions, and Paulsen, hankers, in 'Change-alley, (.ornhill, together with a piece of paper, on which were written directions for the porter to go to the Bull Inn, in Aldgate, and secure an inside place for him by the two o'clock coach that afternoon. At the request of the porter, the prisoner immediately wrote on the back of the check the sort of money in which he wished the check to be paid. Mr. Ridley, the supposed drawer of the check, is at the head of the Sun of Ridley and Co., carpet manufacturer'', in Castle-street, Holborn, and in consequence of something which did not appear yesterday, they some time ago thought it nicessary to warn their bankers tMesen. Bonds and Pattisall) to look very cautiously at cheeks bearing their names, and not to pay any unless they also bore a certain private mark with which they furnished the bankers. The duck in question, when pr.wented on Saturday by the porter, was found not to have the private mark, and although the soma. tux " Wm. Ridley" was an extremely close imitation of Mr. Rid. leis handwriting, the cashier determined upon refusing to pay it ; and he showed the check to Mr. l'attiaall, one of the partners, who after questioning the porter,went immediately to the Old ll urmnums, r and inquired for the person who employed the porter, but the pri. saner hail gone out. An explanation took placebetoeen Mr. Patti. sail and the proprietor of the hotel, and proper directions were of course given throughout the house respecting the prisoner if he should return. In the evening a hackney-coachman called at the hotel, and asked if the porter, who was sent into the city in the morning with a check, had retcrned, and if he bad brought an answer? He was informed in the affirmative, and he asked if it was a letter or parcel that tbe _porter brought, but was told that it was no matter which, the proprietor of the hotel bad it and should. keep it until the gentleman same himself, to about half an hour afterwards the prisoner drove up in a hackney coach to the door, and as previously arranged, was shewn into a private room where Bishop, the officer, was waiting. As soon as the prisoner enter. j el, Bisho p asked him his name, and he replied ~ S a m uel Thump. /Union ; " and on being asked where he lived, he said, " Next door to the White Hart, at Riegate." Bishop said, " You sent a check into the City this morning, I believe ?" The prisoner answered, " I did, and . I received it from Mr. Smith, in the Strand." Bishop : then informed him that the check was a forgery, and that be was an officer and would accompany him to Mr. Sulitles. The prisoner however decfibed going, and said, in au undo: tone, " It's of no consequence." Bishop secured him, and while searching his , pockets, he saw him endeavouring to put something underneath his glove, and on taking otthe glove, Bishop found a small parcel of oxalic acid. in one of his pockets he found a phial filled with a solution of the same destructive poison. Nothing else of conse quence was found upon him. When the search was finished, he requested Bishop to give hint back the phial, hut the officer of enurse refused to let his. have it. He was conveyed to St. Martin's watch-house, where a man sat up with him on Saturday and Sun- day nights. When the above facts had been stated in evidence, Sir R. Maxie asked the prisoner what hi. had tJ say, at the same time cautioning him not to criminate himself. . The prisoner mid, he had no remark to make, except to ask if be should be permitted to have a solicitor to visit him in prison ? Sir R. HisslE—Host undoubtedly. Prisoner—And a friend, I presume ? Sir R. dare say no objection will be made. Prisoner—Shall I be allowed to see them in private, or in the pre- Bence of an officer ? . t:ir R. Brnwia—That will depend upon die Governor of the plactoto which you are going. He has kis directions upon each matters from the Committee of Magistrates. The prisoner was remanded till Thursday next, when other charges will be preferred against him. HATTON-GARDEN, Yesterday a cant iifsom to the liberty of the sob. jeer, arising out of the discretion voted by the New l'otiee Act in night constables, carne before Mr. LAING, the sitting Alagistrate. I In fact there was a threefold charge against wow well.charactcred journeymen, in the employment of a respectable tradesman, Mr. Perrin', of Hatton-wall. The u na.ancesances are brietiy these : The journeymen on Saturday evening went to the 11 kite Lion public-house to ask for rum, it being then nearly twelve o'clock. The landlord, who was husily at work with some favoured Cu,. tomer*, refused them any liquor, on which one of the persons ob served, " Well, its rather a rum any of thing to refuse us while you am serving others." The landlord, however, did not like this joke, and ordered the party out ; the journeyman did uot wish to balk his thirst—the landlord did not wish to leave off serving more money spending customers, and called to hit assistance a baker named Bell (a man of rather formidable bulk, though a kneader of :lough). The joint efforts of Mr. Brittle, the landlord, and Hell, produced the wished-fur result, and the journeyman (Poulnian) was expelled. The landlord charged the watch with his would bc-rum cue:omen, and Mr. Poulman was wired, handed over to one of the rids-named guardians of the night, and conveyed to the watchhouse. On his way thither, he was very anxious to get to his own lodging, rather than be impounded in the watch house at Saffron-hill, and steadily refused to accompany the Charley. Wainwright, one of the Batton-garden Police, happen. ed to come up, and Poulman having sonic knowledge of I ,he observed he wauld go anywhere with him, and peaceably went to the watch-house. Ile was followed thither by his two companions, and as the cell was opened to admit him, a resolute Hibernian, who had just taken up his abode there, attempted to get away ; upon this the watchmen let.to, " their soak in arms and eager for the fray;" the heads of the journeymen, particularly Poulman, were so dreadfully butchered, that it required proitipt surgical attention to prevent its leading to the most serious consequences. But for the humane interference of Wainwright, the result might have proved most unfortunate. However, Poulman, thus ill-used, WILR cribbed, together with one of his companions, whose only crime was his in treating roulman to yield to the ferocity he could not subdue, and submit himself to the authority of Mr. Night.conatable Wit. ley (a little gentleman, who gained nothing in the shape of money on this occasion) and Mr. luxe, whose only profit was an abun. dance of ale and half a pint of ruin and water, for which he was paid two shillings and sixpence. The charge of Brittle, the land. lord, fell to the ground, as, on his spewing, he was not struck. Bell, the baker, then preferred him charge fur an assault against Poulman alone; and as he wsa a witiees for the landlord, the landlord in return could not do less for him, and he continued his I lodger (this same Bell) that he received a blow. for which Poulman was ordered to find bail. But this was not enough for the watchmen; they also alleged a rescue against the same parties, for the purpose of procuring tire escape of the Irishman, of whom they knew no. thing, and whom they never saw before; hut the watchmen swore stoutly and lustily, and almost heaped Pelion upon (has. The charge of rescue, in which Wainwright, the officer, was also in. eluded, called up &number of witnesses, the result of whose depo. aitions was, that tVainwirtglit's interference was that, and that only, of a peace-officer—knowing his duty and remonstrating against the 'boat, of all authority committed by the watchmen, and encouraged, or rather not restrained, by tie night-constable. From this charge all the accused were discharged. A Gentleman who was present observed, that a malicii • and vindictive feeling was strongly evident against the &beer Wain wright ; and that, in point of fact, the whole charge turned upon a rivalry of authority between the officers of the police and those of the pariah. Mr. LAING observed, that police officers had a right to enter watch-houses when their duty required if, and they were not, on any pretence, to be refused admittance. He could not help feeling that there wan a spirit against Wainwright, who could not have been so forgetful of him own interest as to aid in rescuing a prisoner. In point of fact, it was clear that Wainwright brought the accused to the watch-house. We should not forget to state, that respectable bail was tendered On Sunday for the appearance of the accused, and denied ; Mr. the 'Nlght.constable not deeming it discreet to admit them to bail. How long, we ask, is this system to be tolerated / How longer* the citizens ofd free State to be deprived of their liberty, at the whim and caprice of saucy watchmen and night-constables (as in this case), scarcely able to write down the charge I We re commend to those Gentlemen who manage parish affairs, to look a little more closely at the appointment of persons who have the lives and liberties of his Majesty's subjects often at their mercy.

DISCOVERIES IN THE 11100N.—AUGSRURG, MARCH 12. Professor Gruitltuisen, in Munich, whose selenognostic re searches are known to the learned from Bode's Astronomi cal Calendar, and other writings, has spoken in that Can der, and in one of his works, of the discovery which his extremely quick sight, aided by a good telescope of Frauen hofer's making, has been enabled to make of a colossal building, situated near the Equator of the Moon, resem bling a fortress, with strait ramparts, which are arranged like the lateral fibres of an alder leaf. We now learn that he has also discovered a great many regularly made roads, ' alterations evidently made by art, in natural walls, the clearest traces of cultivation an the surface of the Moon (which Schroeber affirmed to exist), and several other in dicationsof rational beings in that planet. Mr. CONOLLY.—The remorial of Mr. Conolly has not been, as has been erroneously stated, presented to his Ma jesty. It is however prepared, and will receive Mr. Conolly's' signature this day ; it will b;accompanied, when presented, by a certificate, signed by the Foreman of the Jury, before whom the trial took place. Another signed by .Soo house keepers in London, and a third from the inhabitants of Brighton, headed by the Dean of Hereford, &c. To-day it will he handed to Mr. Peal. 'fur Rev. C. COLTON,—( From the New York Doily Adm, user of Feb. 20.)—Pears were expressed in the Lon don Papers, sometime since, for the safety of the Rev. C. C. Colton, author of " Lacon," &c. &c. as he had suddenly disappeared from London. The last time he appears to have been seen was in company with Mr. Weare, who was shortly afterwards murdered by Thurtell, Jinni, and Pro bert. The editor of the Ntw Fork Patriot lately stated that a person answering the description of Mr. Colton was in this city some short time since, and, under the name of Clinton, had offered a work to a bookseller in this city, at the same time declaring he was the author of " Lacon," and that he lately left this city for Charleston. In addi tion to the above, the Manulacluirri Journal of Provi dence, Rhode Maid, says—" Mr. Colton arrived at New port in September last, in the ship Roy, from Bremen, and previously to his visiting New York, passed several days at !kir. Horton's hotel, in this place, where he was remarked for the eccentricity of his manners, and a profuse display of remarkable trinkets, &c. lie here also assumed the name of Clinton."
