Richard Hoods. examined by Mr. 111101'ClIVI—f1e is a corn. factor at Hui!. On the 6th of April he was there when Hunsley carne, Ile asked " what we were doing there? and said that "we were a set of d—cl thieves and robbers !" Mr. Rushworth was there. Ile told Hunsley if he would g • out of the room he would explain what lie was dome, it was to Tilt the premises. When the document was read over he remembers that !lunacy said particularly to Irostling that "he was a d--d fool, and had signed himself out of possesaion," and '• that he would nut assist him with a shil ling. No person tendered him any morey in the course of that day. The agreement was read over in the room. He waited half as Lour to see if Mrs. Waistline; could raise the money. Gross-examined by Mr. SCAR LETT—Has been a corn.factor for thirty years at Hull; is not particular: y acquainted with Mr. Rush. worth ; he may hare been an assignee under a bankrupt's estate. les which Mr. Rushworth was the attorney; there was Leonard Thompson's commission that he had been assignee to, and under two tie s!s of assignment some dividends had been paid.

Ralph Benson examined by Mr. COLTMAN—AVM present OM the distress was made at the Hull Bank house, and was at the trial at York Assizes in 1825 ; he heanl Hensley esnmined ; he.said before -the Court that he had made • tender of Bank of England notes; he afterwards said I bee: pardon, they were Huil notes. By the J DOE—Can't say if he said notes or guineas; he did not see any tender made; he saitl he could not pay. he had not got any money l England said I must have good money. Cross.examired by Mr. SCARLETT—IIe was turned out of peresstision ; the goods were put inn the street ; the goods wete wash SOL if well sold ; (a laugh) the man took himself out ; (a kotyh.) Be-examined by Mr. COLT NAN—MT. Rushworth said that if V. Has. and fis. for cows were paid, that would do. By the JUDGE—IIe took sonic papers out of his pocket book; did tint see what they were. This was the case la the Crown, when Z l / 4 AII I. ETT rose to address thfjury, and said that the testi. penny to convict the defendant of perjury, rested solely on the evi dome of Mr. Rushworth, who had been extremely cautious in what he had sworn, and always qualified what he had said, that it Was to the best of his belief, to the best of his recollection. If the Jury this day convicted his client on the lame charge that hsil been rade on the testimony of this single evidence, it would consign bias to gaol, the pillory, and hard labour; but he thought the Jury would pause before they came to such a conclusion ; the very evidence showed that a distinct tender of the rent had been made. The Learned Illesuleman then went through the evidence, making comments on tharontradictory statement of the witnesses. Ile said that Hensley had made a legal tender, and there was nothing false iu what he had swore. and he really believed there never was a case that eoethined such a tissue of wickedness, fraud, malice, and ab sturdily in all the course of his professional practice. And if his chant had not been tried this ckey before the same Judge who ex satinets him at the last assizes, he should have lost the benefit of tftweffect of his eross-examinatioo of the witness Mr. Rushworth, and tee had no doubt but that the Jory would acquit his client of ane'ef the fool: st charges that man could be guilty of, and that disk verdict would establish his innocence. LonDSUIP said, in his charge to the Jury, that he hoped they would dismiss from their minds all tibsereuttorta•that might have been thrown out that did not immediately to the case, and comine themselves to the evidence alone, argtbeir testi mcby decide on the guilt or innocence of the defendant. There were three points for their consideration : did the defendant or not, when he swore the words laid in the indictment, and which the prosecutor charged him with uttering, know at the time that they were false, and that he swore them corruptly and falsely, with • view of making a false representation. Now it was pos. bible that a man might say what was false, but not corruptly. It had been the ease in several instances; and had witnesses been suffered to sop at certain parts of their examination, many might have been indicted for perjury. In this particular casette° instances of the kind had occurred, in the evidence of Mr. Rushworth and Dlr. 0 .o.ly : hut they were to make *ll4 WIIIOCOI for witnesses who, is the hurry of the moment, might be led into unintentional errors. Ilta Lordship, in conclusion, said he thought they cught to he ex tretnely cuttious in finding a verdict of guilty upon the testimony that had been submitted to them this day tor the prosecution ; and that, alnico, the Jury wished it, he would not resit over the evidence. The Jury assented ; and, under his bordahiVa direction, found the defendant Not Guilty. Suictne.—W. Pollock, a man who was under sentence of death for the murder of his wife In Edinburgh. and who was to bare suffered the last punishment of the law on Monday, strangled himself in his cell with a portion of his own shirt. At eight o'clock the upper turnkey visited Pollock, and cleaned his cell. Thu prisoner then said he felt more easy, and in better spirits. When breakf st was taken to him about half-past nine, he was found dead, but not quite cold. lie had torn out the back of his shirt, and &strip from the aide of a blanket, and these he twisted in the form of a small rope, and fastened to the cross-bar of a table, a piece of weed about l 3 inches long, and three-fourths of an inch thick, which he had laid ac-oss the ventilator of his cell, a small circle of lR inches diameter, formed in the wall which separates the apartment from the passage. The height of this ventilator is only' six fret four, or thereabouts, from the floor of the cell ; but between it ant the floor is the bed--a thick oak plank, on which the unhappy man lay—and likewise the gaud, or iron bar, to which he Oaa fastened. He had adjusted his bed.eiothes so as to entangle his feet, and prevent them reaching the ground, when he threw himself off. He had also drawn a rug between the gaud and the eintLof his fetters, to prevent -,14e. Indeed tire whole circumstances evi4od a degree of determination and deliberation that Is sur prising. Pollock left three letter., and a scrap of paper containing an inventrry of his effects, in the gaol; these he wished to be given to hit son. The letters were all at nearly the mime teems: Fr, :heath , admits the guilt of suicide, but states that he could not eutdre the thought of suffering on the scaffirld for a (rime he celled net bring his mind to believe he rat guilty of." • To 11r. Young. the governor, he wrote—" Excuse this rash acts whew •,ost L c!wirler all, you will see there is good intentions, though riot towards iiymelf." Pollack had, throughout the whole course of his couflneimmt, conducted himself very qu stly ; but always de 'tied • the murder, and appeared rather Irritated when taxed with It. Warmer. POLICE. GUILDIIALb. (lothlard. the beadle of St. Ann add Agnes, in the ward of Al dersgate, applied on Wednesday for a summons against a sirgle woman ft-Aiding in his parish, who passed by the name of Mrs. Gag. , grave. and who um plainly rneriale, calling upon her to show CALM why she should not be removed to the place of hrr legal settlement forthwith, agreeably to the nth Oro. 111. cap. 10. see. 6, which enacts, " that every unmarried female with child shall he deemed anti taken to be a prison actually chargeable," and therefore re movable to her own parish. everting the case came on for hearing before Mr. Alderman Cox, when, instead of the lady. Mr. Cosgrave appeared to show cause. Ile expreswd his astonishment that the overseers should have thought of inierfvring in the matter now, after he had been living uninterruptedly with the female for mire years. It was ex traordinary Mat rs neilber she nor her children had ever become chargeable, or were likely to be so, the officers should now drag' s their affaini befote the puldie, when, not a first, but a fourth child. was on the eve of bring hair. The application of the law to the particular circurristames of his caw was most unusual, if it were col unprece,h.lited. This proceeding could not arise from any ap prehension mat he was about to desert his family. or that his means were inautfieient to the support of it. He was carrying on bnaireas as a master bookbinder, anti his friends were so far respectable that in case of his death the parish would not he burdened with even cane of his children. 3lany respectable families might he found in the mttropolis in the sane state with his own, and he was adore the less the overreera sought to make an unnecessary public expo. sure of them, the better it would be for all parties. At all events, the female who buil missed as his wife was so near her confinement now, that she could not possibly be removed. The overseer disclaimed having interfered with Mr. Crwerrive's family concerns inviiliotialr; but, he said, if another illegitimate child were born in their parish. that would be its settlement, and the burden they were already liable to would be increased. Jr was • his duty therefore to itsist, and the law sanctioned him in doing so, that the woman should be removed before delivery, or that Mr. Cosgrave should give security that the child should not become chargeable. Mr. (longtime might die to-morrow, and what his re. Jetfoils might then say could not be foreseen. Mr. Cosgrave said he would freely give his personal security, but he feared he might find some difficulty in persuading two friends to join him. After some conversation in a low tone between the overseer and the Alderman, the latter desired Mr. Coagrave to call on the parish oliiirers, and try if he could not make sonic arrangement with them privately. This Mr C. promised to do, and retired. IIOW-STRI:F,T. . . Yesterday morning. see Wafter Sir R. Ilirnie had taken his seat, a strong sensation was produce( in the office by the entrance of a posse of officers, bringing in one of the most powerful and athletic men, perhaps, that nature ever formed, with his hands and fret strongly hound together, his clothes almost torn from his hack, and the blood streaming over his face and heck from a severe wound in the temple. Ile struggled 'most violently, and, well secured at were his heeds and feet, it was with difficulty that the officers could get him within the liar, he exclaiming, in a voice of thunder, and in the name of the King, against the outrage which, he said, had been committed urn his liberty. By order of the Magistrate the gaolers of the office brought in an iron belt, so constructed as to confine the birds to the waist, and this having been put on the prisoner, the cords were removed from his wrists and alleles, and he then veined competitively tranquil. When he rose up at the bar, his floe voile flame immediately became the subject of general obiirvativn: 111% height was about six feet, and he pos sessed extraordinary breadth of chest, features of the most coin mar eing kind, and power of muscle perhaps not often equalled. It appeared that his name was John D'Aubigny King, and that he was (Innerly an officer of Fusileent, but is now on hall.pay of the I lth foot. .lie had been lodging at the house of 31r. Clemence, a tailor, in Craven-street, Strand, for the last four months, during the latter part of which his manners seemed to undergo a great change ; and within the last three weeks he became exceedingly wild and incoherent. Yesterday morning early he made dreathul n.ds..s, accompanied by occasional imprecations Upon the family of slr. (lenience and other persons, and when the female servant, at his desire, brought hint some water, he threw it on the floor anti desired her to bring him more. She obeyed, and he again emptied it, and east the jug at her head. He then called out to Mr. Cle. menet.. " come here you villain," and, proceeding down stairs, swore he would munler the whole generation of Clemencea. The family fastened themselves into a room on the ground floor looking into. yard, and he, finding this, went to the yard and began to de molish a wall, the bricks of which he hurled through the window into th! room ; but fortunately did not inflict injury upon any one. He returned up stairs, and meanwhile Sayers and other parish con stables came, and with Mr. Clemenee, and his hrother, went to the prisoner's room, but found the door fastened. They were bursting ' open the doer when the prisoner opened it, and presented himself armed with a poker; a desperate tight ensued and he was eventually ' secured. While the witnesses were giving evidence, the unfortunate gen tleman at the bar occasionally interrupted them, and with tremens don; vehemence protested that all they were saying was false, and appealed to the Magistrate to do him justice. " 1 have," said he, been assaulted in my own tenement, contrary to the law, Nhicb says that every Englishman's house is his castle; I have been de prived of my liberty, pinioned, and dragged like a murderer to this A•id there is that coward (pointing to Sayers, the con stable)—that lily.livneel scoundrel—that fellow with the fat jowls and as.'s cats—tie, Sir—such a thing as that. Sir—aye, Sir—he had the audacity to strike me—me—an officer of his Majesty's army— with a constable's stair. and that too when I was pros rate on the ground. and oitered to submit to his autholity, and go at once be. fore a Maci.urate." Sir H. Bttl N lE, In a conciliating tone, awned him he should hare ample justice at his hands, and it would be found that no one could treat him or any of the King's subjects ill with impunity. ' 31r. King became calm for a time, but again burst out in II strain of invective opine( the witnesses, and then, lowering his tone, cati tioned the 31suistrate not to believe tell that they tan] u Gospel because they swore it. " However," said he, looking round, " Sir Richard Birnie has but one course to pursue—to let me hear what the charge is, listen to my answer, and then conimit me it' he thinks proper ; but let him take case that he does me justice, or by God I will have him removed hum that bench within a month. I have influence that perhaps people little suspect me to have. But don't smaunderstand me, Sir Richard (in a cool tone).—l mesa no disrespect to you, but I must have justice." " And so you shell," said the 3lawatrate. The prisoner then indulged in a rambling speech about Sir Huey Calvert aid other officers, and spoke of his own services in the army. ire pas finally ordered to be taken to an asylum at Bethnal Green, upon the oath of Mr. Clemente that he believed him to be ate insane and dangerous person. Sir R. Birnie, in his hearing, de sired that Ford, the gaoler, would treat him in every respect like a gentleman, and he lett the Office quietly, under the impression that he was going to the Secretary of State's. Sir R. Bit nut 1: mentioned in the course of the day. that a bene volent person, signing the initials T. H., had inclosed a a note for the use of the boy, Thomas IS'illiams (mentioned in our paper of Snmrdny as being found nearly starved in Bedfotd.street; it he should prove to be a deserving object, and if not, requesting that it might be applied to some other charitable purpose. The boy had turned nut to be an impostor, and he (Sir R.

ENTRAORGINARY AND DARING ItOßßnßy.—Yesterday Mr. Blink Barret, plumber and glazier, of High -street, Portland-town, Paddington, attended at this Otfice to lay inform:: 1h of a most daring robbery committed in his house on Bionday high', under very aggravated circuited:meet'. He was seemnpaniec! - as the Office by Sims. his servant, an interesting little girl, about 18 years °rage, wits had been treated in the moat met and barbarous man. ntr by the rutiisits who perpetrated the robbery, and, tram the fright she experienced during the transaction, had until yesterday been confined to her bed, And troubled with strnrg convulsions. With great difficulty she made the following statement:— That her master resided at 44, Portland-towil,wheee he alms owned the adjoining house, which was to be let. On 'Monday evening last, at about half past seven o'clock, during the absence of the family, a:,d :trier the journeymen had (pitted their work, she yes in the house by herself, when she heard a knock et the door; on opening which she saw a woman, who regulated her to chow her the adjoining house, which she understood was to be let. Wit nees darned her all over the holm, and then returned to the one• shelled left. She had searcely opened the door when a man came up m her, and also requested to he shown the house ; she took him ell over the place, sed on returning to her raster's dour she opened it with the key. Just as site was stepping into the pßeeege. the man who followed her rushed in unon her, took the key out of the door, and pushed her along the passage, into :he parlour, where, with the greatest violence, he forted her on the chair. (He had previously taken a screw mit of the door shutter, which he brought with him into the esrinur). She was dreadfully alarmed, but was prevented screaming by the feller threatening her with I holt nnt death if she made the Icast noise. lie then made a signal, J when a tall ill-looking man, dressed in black. entered the manor, I and tlkicg a black crepe from his hat he tied i, over her Mee, And ' then. with the assistance of the oilier man, forzeil her on the chide, and tied her lege, hands. and body to it, so that sludeould rot move. Bir. OR IFF IT fie—Did you know either of the men ?—I saw the tall man dressed in black once before ; he called about a tort. night ago to make sonie inquiries about the house. Mr. linter:mit askee. what the first who entered said to her P-.- She replied that he asked her whether she was not frightened to stay in the place by herself. after the robbery that took place ascent a fortnight Dee ? tjlte told bins that she was nut, the workmen I were in the place. She told them so as she began to suspect they were thieves whin they pushed her about so much. Aftrr l fastening her on the chair she could plainly perceive what they did through the black crape. The tall man mid to her, " now tell us where your master keeps his silver plate and money, end if you matte :my noise you are sure to be murdered." Witness begged of them not to take her life, and told them that there was no money in the place, with the exception of one farthing which lay on the table. Ile then proceeded to the cupboard, where he took out it: sneer spoon , , and showing them to his companion, he Raid, .• we'll melt there"—on which he took a ladle out of his pocket and rut in the spoors, together with a silver knife which he took from under the sleeve of his coat, and he put them on the fire ID the fink's'', which was very large at the time, and melted theM. Mir. 0 weever s—lt was 11171 'Waage that thieves should ea patiently h a hotow that they hadtobbed to melt werags. and asked her whether she via certain that she sew it ? Witness said she did see k qui.e plain through 'the rape. They joked while they were there with each other, and while they were inciting the silver they pulled out biscuits and cheese from their podiets. which they ate. and had the audacity to go into her tsuts ter's cellar to get some bottled beer, which they drank In her pre sence, and prior In leaving the place they asked her whether her master did not work for Captain Brooke, of the New Road. Mr. ti RIF IT it 6 said it wag • most extraordinary proceeding, and asked Mr. Barret how long the witness had been In his service? Mr. Barret replied, only nine weeks, but be knew her and her family }tom her infancy. Be always found her to be a good and honest girl. Mr. tittisTrrna asked how long the spoons were meltingr... Not lung. Attet they had melted them they used some red pow. der. which they threw on the fee, and which put it completely nut. Who fauna you in the chai. ?—After remaining in the greatest suspense a considerable time, she went into strong convulsion.; a knock came at the door, and the tall man exclaimed " We are die. turbot agnim we must be off." Ile blew out the candle, and they both escaped by the heck way, over a skylight. iTitness t creamed loudly and alumni the neighbourhood, and the soli of a 11l r.John. son t through ttic window and found her in the parlour bound on the chair, when he released her from her wretched situation. Mr. ei [Fr IT /Ili tasked her if she knew the young men and boy who first discovered her ?—Yes, and they would come forward if necessary. Mr. Itawcrxsow said it appeared to him very strange that in. formation of ro extraordinary and daring a robbery should be kept from the Magistrates so long a time, and asked Morris the reason, he tieing the officer who first received information. Mortis said the gill was in a state of insensibility, and nimble to Aprak ever eince Monday, and could not attend. Mr. Barret said she was in strong fits ell day on Tuesday and Wednesday, and she sae now dreadttilly ill in consequence of the blows and fright she received. She looked dreadfully ill, and stood trembling and gazing iti the most wild manner while answering questions, and was nip. plied with water. . - Mr. It asCr.IN soar—Did you hear of this on Tuesday, Morris? Yes. your Worship. Mr. Paw r.txsom—And was you told of melting spoons? Morris said 'he was, ►y Mr. Barret, but the girl was unable to speak. Mr. Ratvr.txsoat said k appeared very extraordinary that the information •hnuld be kept from the Magistrates for so long a time, especially in such an extraordinary robbery. Mr. GIItPFITIIS asked her how the other man was drerier', and whether she could identify him P—Witness said she could ; the man who first accosted her was dressed in a dark blue coat and dark breeches, and top boots. The tall man, while melting the spoons, threatened that if ever she mentioned the circumstance, he knew where and at what time she got her beer, and he would cer tainly have her life. . _ _ ' The - Alagistrrtes said the, never heard of a more extraordinary circt.matnnee. a 31 gave orders to the officers to be upon the alert mid exert their seal in order to discover the wretchea gtf;:y of the crime. Every information was taken by Mr. Mallet, the chief clerk. and it is to be hoped the villains will net long escape condign punkhinent.

UNION HALL. Yeeterday, a man named Aires was brought up to this office, charged with breaking into the house of a Mrs. Gillingham, in Mead's-row, Lambeth. From the statement of the eomplainant, it appeared that on the preceding night. while sitting in her bed-room, she heard a noise in the front room; instead of proceeding there to ascertain the cause, she ran down stairs to the front ticor in order to give the alarm, and on Opening the door she saw the prisoner jump out of the first floor window. He fell to the ground into some mud, but soon recovered himself and ran off with three other fellows, who appeared to have been waiting underneath the window for the purpose of receiving whatever property might he handed to them. The complainant informed the watchman of what had happened, and, on examining he- rooms, discovered all the drawers broken open ; the bed and bedding were also taken off the bedstead and packed up, lying close to the window. The watchman observed three men running up Mead's-mw at the time, and particularly noticed the prisoner as ore of them, but not aware that a robbery had been committed, suffered them to escape. Information was, however. subsequently given to a constable, who apprehended the prisoner the same night at one of those receptacles for thieves called s , flash houses."— %Vherftaken into custody, his clothes were covered with'mud. The prisoner never accounted for the manner in which his clothes became in the state they then appeared, and be was fully com mitted for trial. Two women, named /reify and Donovan, were charged with en. tering the shop of Ur. Harvey, haberdasher, of Bridge-street, Lambeth, and stealing therefrom a quantity of ribbon. The Fri coners, it appeared, went into the chop in company, under the pretence of making purchases. Having desired to be shown soma trifling article•, while the shopman's back was turned, they con. trived to snatch up some rolls of ribbon, which they dexterously slipped up their sleeves by sleight of band. The prisoners were, however, observed by a person in the shop, who gave Information of what had occurred ; when they were marched and the rolls of ribbon found in their possession. They were fully committed. IMPORTANT INVESTIGATION AT ST. BAR- TIIOLOMEW'S HOSPITAL. On Wednesday last a Special General Court of the Governors and Supporters of this Institution was held in the Committee Room at the Hospital, to investigate the allegations that were made against the surgeons in the case of Mrs. Mary Alcock, who died in the Hospital, and on the body of whom an inquest was held, the proceediogslat which were reported under the head of Extruor. dinary Proceedings at St. Bartholomew's Hospital." The Meeting was attended by forty or fifty of the Governors, who, after the case had been strictly inquired into, were unani. mously satisfied that every attention had been paid to the unfortu rive womsn, but referred it to the HouseCommitter for investigation. Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, the House Committee, ahich had been specially called for the purpose, assembled. Mr. STE. PIIENIION, the Banker, and Treasurer of the Hespital,in the Chair. bir. Vincent, the principal surgeon, under whole care the de ceased woman was. and Mr. L. A. Joseph, the house surgeon, as well as Alcock, the husband of Mary Alcock, were present at the investigation. and the following is a correct statement made by Mr. John P. Vincent, touching the subject matter in ques. tion:—Mary Alcock, or Hancock (which latter name she went by in the ward) applied to the Hospital on February let, with an injury, which was so strikiegty alartr.ing as to the probable result, that she was immediately admitted with.. out any form. Being surgeon of the week, I took charge• of her. I found, on examination, that she had lost the scalp or integuments, including great part of the temporal muscle, or nearly the whole of the right side of the head, leaving the bone un. covered to the sante extent. On inquiry, I was informed that this mischief had arisen from her having fallen into the fire about three weeks before. There was nothing in the condition of the parts that nude this account questionable. She went on well, and the case proceeded beyond my expectations, until shortly be. fore her death. On the 9th instant she became worse, continued the same on the 10th. and on my visit on the I ith, I found her in 'a very perilous state, with unequivocal symptoms of there being mat. ter under thebone. It now became my duty to perforate the skull, which I did, and gave exit to pus. Her pulse was improved by this operation, but the opening in the cranium exposed such de. struction of the parts underneath, that I had no expectation of her surviving many hours. she died in the course of that night. I was anxious to know the state of the parts within the-cranium. and having complied with the regulations laid down (the book being on a Sunday locked up, I made the entry on a re^ce of paper, which is usual under such circumstances), I made an examination of the body on the 12th. From the time of Mary Alcock's admission, I watched her progress with solicitude, and was unceasing in my at. tendanceon her. I think it but just to add, that she always ap_ paned grateful for the comforts she had about her, and for the surgical assistance administered to her; and she expressed herself thankful for the humane attention of Mr. Roberts, who officiated as her dresser. Her husband Heeds that, while living, the head ' of the patient was cut and mangled. This is altogether false ; there wu no cutting at any time; the soft parts were not even touched by a cutting instrument ; the bone, and that dead bone, was simply perforated. The propriety of. the operation Is indisputable, and if he means to assume to himself the authority of forbidding the resources, which surgical science can supply, is be resorted to, be must misconceive the very character of an institution like this Mu. pital. After the operation, care was taken to place the patient in a situation that nothing should appear that could hurt thj: feelings of any friend that might come to visit her. In conducting the examination of the body after death, there was nothing like unnecessary disturbance of parts—besides inspecting the brain, there were pathological reasons for inquiring into the state of other organs ; for this purpose the abdomen and thorax were opened. It is probable that the marks of these incisions impressed the husband with the notions that mere freedom was taken in this examination than was necessary. This certainly was not the case. am compelled to aver that in the statement in the Morning Newspapers things are represented, both grossly exaggerated and absolutely false; to prove which it is only necessary to observe, that the husband is reported to have declared on his oath that he found the pupils about his wife, dressed in some peculiar append. twee appropriated for operations; it happens that it is not the usage at this Hospital, either for the surgeon who performs an operation, or the pupils who mar be about him, to make any chaage from their ordinary dress. Mr. Vincent further said, that he hilted he need not add more to convince the Treasurer and the Gentleintn of the Committee that every attention was paid to the comfort and surgical treatment of M. Alcock whilst in the Hospital, and that the husband's statement contains false and unfounded accusations. Mr. L.A. Joseph, the house-surgeon, who was examined on the Coroner's inqueet,gare the following explanation of the affair as far as regarded himself. Every rare was taken of the deceased woman while in the Hospital,and the operation of trepanning the skull WAS performed on her by hlr. Vincent, which, of course, refutes the charge of cutting and mangling her head. My care of patients ceasing on their being seen by the surgeon, and Mrs. Alcock hav ing been attended by Mr. Vincent a few h ours after her admission, I beg leave to refer you to him for the particulars of her treatment end post marten examination. With respect to my answers to the questions put to me at the Inquest; I submit that as my inquiries of the cause of the accident were only directed with a view to the necessary treatment, and not In contemplation of affording future evidence, it is not extraordinary that at the distance of six weeks I could not state on oath whether the information I had obtained as to the manner in which the accident happened was from her own mouth or from others, and therefore I did not feel warranted in giving • decided answer. The Indefinite answer I did give on this point was by no means influenced by any feeling of levitr or disrespect. I naturally therefore felt much hurt at Mr. Shelton s observations, and could not avoid replying to them in the way I did. Mr. Shel ton mentioned that he had frequent occasion to find fault with the manner in which evidence had been given on former occasions. I beg observe that I hare attended frequently before bienoince I have been hpuse.surgepn, and on many previous occasions, and no fault has hitherto been found with my eondeict. I trust this explanation will utisfy you, Gentlemen of the Committee, that my answers to the Coroners questions did not proceed 'Vora any foaling of disre spect, and that 1 am sufficiently aware of the importance attached to the situation I hold in the Hospital The whole of the above statement having been read over to the Committee, by Mr. Wood. they crane to an unanimous opinion-- that Mr. Alcoek was never refused admission to see his wife, ex cept on the day of the operation, when he was advised to keep back as a matter of hunt:duty towards himself, until the wound was properly dressed ; that he must nave been in error if he stated that the roung men were standing about in coloured aprons and sleeves, as Air. Vincent, the surgeon, states that none of the medical men ever alter their dress an may occasion ; that the inspection of thebody after death was incompliance with and under the euthority given by the Governors as far backs the year 1760, few the benefit of science, and that the boil after suck inspection was carOu ll y sewed up, and placed io a canto. as is usual, for interment, or until re. moved by the friends; that in point of fact, Mary Muck lint presented herself at the accident ward, sill d " Queen," on Tues. day evening the 31st January, bat that ward having no bed vacant, she was desired by the slater to wait till the house-surgeon was sent for, but she said she could not atop, therefore she was told to come next day ; next day she did come, and Mr. Clarke, the house surgeon then on duty, desired her to go to " President Ward," whore there was a mut bed ; that Mr. Clarks examined her wound, ordered pou/tice. and saw her put to bed.; that Roberts. the dreseer, wu then present, and on that same evening ordered her some opening' medicine; that Mr. Vincent saw her next day, and .the Committee need not declare their conviction that-every kind attention has been paid to bee by that gentle man, nod every one about the Hospital ; that Mr. Joseph was out of town on account of his health, with the Permieline of Mr. Vincent. and nevetaaw the case until his return on the Bth of February; that be bad several conversations with her, but they were allay relative to - her complaints; that it was unfortunate Mr, Clarke was not esainineti, and they cannot. but regret the ahem don whiab teak place between Mr. Joseph 'and the Coroner ; but they mat Mr. Joseph's declaration. that be Intended no offence, Still satisfy thatgentleman ; that it appears that Mr. Alen& did not come to see his wife fee three day, or more after her admission, which eased her great uneasiness, and so she messed herself that Mary Aluek-atesed se Mr. Clark e , on h er fi rst a d m i ss i on, en d also to the slater, and everyone else, the kW hurt arose from her having fallen into din the thee' verb previous to bet tinsel ng to the ilespital s -that the husband brought a petition fee the wife's adroiesies.in the emetasavy anenner 4 to ampule widt the a nd di and tkeyafeso. saw bus boss privy to her Ade, dew, and did eentreoendassily to as bat. and never won seeing he; but. as Jtedwe stated 4. es the slay of the Tbiode‘deo appear& IS eadettlia Alessi SPORTING INrrimaENCE.
