THE LATE MURDERS AT BATTERSEA-BRIDGE.-011 Monday, at 4 o'clock, Mr. Carter, the Coroner for East Surrey, resumed the inquiry into the circumstances attending the death of William Matthew Clarke, aged seven years, one of the unfortunate children thrown over Battersea-bridge, on Saturday, the 2d instant. The body had been found in the work-gate hole of the Vauxhall and South Lambeth Water-Works, abutting on the river, and about 200 yards below the Red-house. It was taken to the above house, washed, and afterwards identified by the father. On Saturday, Mr. Carter opened an inquiry, which, after two hours' duration, ho adjourned, for the purpose of having a post modem examination of the body. The wit nesses then examined, with but one exception, had given their evi dence previously, both at the Adam and Eve, Chelsea, and at the Westminster Police-court, and, therefore, any repetition tic'eiertigutheseti,h'llnd as before would be unnecessary. Yesterday a number gi o v f en wl in tneT i c ie s were examined, but as their testimony was m ea , r a l k ie ie r y. pa u r p t on of the th b e ody day o , f j a a t ne t c b h e il fo d re , a Mr. re- iteration would be useless.

ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.—The posts and fittings for this wonderful medium of communieation have been set up from this city to Thetford, and will soon be continued to Brandon. The telegraph is actually at work between London and Cambridge, so that we may expect, in a short time,.to receive a message from the Me tropolis in a few minutes. There will be fifteen wire communications between Norwich station and the various stations to Brandon, so that messages may be sent to and from each of the principal stations. Farmers all along the line will be able to ascertain the prices of grain at London market in a few seconds of time. A division in the House of Commons, after any important debate, may be communicated at all the stations from London to Yarmouth in ait minutes.—Korfigk Chronicle. FIRE AND MIRACULOUS ESCAPE OF THE LANDLORD AND HIS WIFE.—OH Monday morning, at half-past four o'clock, a fire broke out at the Marquis of Wellington public-house, situate in New street, Horsleydown. The Tooley-street engine was quickly on the spot, as also the parish engine. It was, however, found unnecessary to put them into operation, the firemen having forced open the door, and, with a good supply of water, extinguished the fire in less than an hour and a half from its first commencement. The house presents an uncommon appearance inside, as each room is entirely gutted, with the exception of the bar and the first-floor hack room. It ap pears the fire originated in the kitchen, as the entire woodwork about the fireplace is consumed; the fames then proceeded up stairs. The landlord was awoke with the bed being in one mass of blaze ; he immediately got up and threw the bed out of the window, and had he not compelled his wife to leap out, there is every probability she would have been suffocated, as at that time she was getting quite stupifled. Strange to say, that although the door of the bed-room is barely scorched, everything is entirely consumed. A picture, valued at 100 guineas, is destroyed. Although the fire must have burnt with so ranch fierceness for the time, the staircase is hardly touched. The top room presented a strange appearance, the fire, in its way up, got through a small window into the reom, and ran entirely nand the walls, and the only damage done was to a gown hanging up at the other end of the room, and scorching the walls. The house is, we believe, insured in the Sun Fire-office. RIVER THAMES HIGHWAY.—The Thames has within the last few days, since the weather has settled down fair, become the leading highway of personal communication between the City and the West-end. There are no less thanleleven steam-boats,[at one penny the trip, engaged in the traffic between London and West minster bridges alone, making thirty-two trips in the hour, or three hundred and twenty trips per diem, which, taking forty as the ave rage number of passengers each Journey , will snake a total daily of m in:g ri n g o in ated at the same amount. The fares are one 15,000, whilst the return penny.number round numbers 1251. as the daily receipts ; and the time occupied between the above points varies from a quarter to half an hour, being a much shorter time than it can be effected by omnibus. MORE CHEAP RAILWAY TRIPS.--The directors of the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway have commenced running cheap trains to all the stations along their nuca on .sunatLys at the lgiv rate of one laupezwy per mile. CHURCH FOR - THE SEAMEN - OF THE PORT OF LONDON. Yesterday the foundation-stone of the church in Dock street, Commercial-road, for the accommodation of the sea men frequenting the port of London, was laid by his Roya. Highness Prince Albert. The site has been well chOsen, being very near the London and St. Katharine Docks, the Sailors' Home, with which there is a private communication, and also in the immediate vicinity of the Seamen's Asylum. Considering the contracted space of ground at his disposal, the architect, Mr. Henry Roberts, has laid it out. to the best advantage, the extreme length of the church being 69-feet, the width 53 feet ; the height to the ridge of the roof is to be 52 feet, and the tower and spire 100 feet. The seats are to be open benches, entirely free, to accommodate 600 on the floor, and 200 in the side•galleries. From the, walls, which have already b een ra i se d to the height of about 15 feet, a blue and white canvassawning was stretched and carried up to a lofty ridge, from which the Union Jack floated outside. On a platform erected in the centre of the area, and covered with Turkey carpetidg, three chairs were placed, one a chair of state for:. the ' Prince; that on the one side for the Bishop of London, and that on the other for the Lord Mayor. Immediately to their right, over an opening in the floor, was suspended from pulleys the foundation stone, which, being lowered by the ropes attached, fitted to one of corresponding dimensions and enclosed a bottle containing the plan of the building and the inscription. The whole of the remaining space was occupied by crimson-covered seats in ascending rows, which were filled by ladies and gentlemen. The clergy, who at tended in considerable numbers, occupied three benches im mediately behind the Prince; the seats in front were occu pied by the Lords of the Admiralty, the committee, and -their ladies. The upper and back benches were occupied by seamen and their apprentices, who acted as - an excel lent choir. The Prince arrived at ten minutes to three o'clock, attended by the Marquis of Abercorn, and was received at the western front entrance by Mr. J. Labouchere, the treasurer, Lord I. Cholmondeley, and Captain H. Hope; followed by Captain Saurin and the other members of the Committee, and con ducted amidst loud cheers to the chair ofstate provided for him on the platform. Neither the Bishop of London nor the Lord Mayor had yet arrived, and his Royal Highness, on the invi tation of the treasurer, proceeded to inspect the Sailers' Home. Meanwhile the Bishop of London, the Lord Mayor, and the Earl of Ellenborough arrived. On his return the Prince was addressed by the treasurer, Mr. John Labon• chere, as follows :—" May it please your Royal Highness— On behalf of the directors of the church for seamen and my self I beg to express our most grateful thanks to your Royal Highness for your kindness in coming among us this day, to lay the foundation stone of the first church which has ever been erected in this metropolis for the use of seamen, all the sittings in which, 800 in number, are to be perfectly free. I cannot refrain from availing myself of the present opportu nity; also, to express our most grateful thanks to her Ma jesty, for her liberal support in favour of this national under taking, and I sincerely trust that the countenance it has re ceived both from her Majesty and yourself will induce others to come forward and supply the remaining funds necessary to the-completion of the church." The religious portion of the service commenced by the singing of abymn, followed by the reading of the 84th psalm, the Lord's Prayer, and the dedication. 'The arc hi tect that read the inscription as follows : This Foundation Stone of the CHURCH FOR SEAMEN of the tort of London VMS laid Monday, 11th of May, A.D. 1846, in the 9th year of the Reign of her Majesty Queen Victoria, by His Royal Highness Prince Albert, K.G., Her Majesty's Consort. The Right Hon. and Right Reverend Charles James Bishop of London. John Labouchere, Esq., Treasurer. Henry Roberts, F.S.A., Architect. William Cubitt and Co., Builders. The inscription having been deposited in the bottle, and the mortar having been spread by a silver trowel on the lower stone, the upper block was gradually lowered ; and the Prince having by aid of plummet and level ascer tained that all was fair and square, applied the mallet with artistic dexterity to each corner of the stone, the Bishop say ing, " We place this foundation-stone in faith and hope, to the glory of God through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen." This was followed by the 122 d Psalm, which was chanted by the choir, prayers for protection and strength, and the Apos tolic benediction. - The Prince, who looked remarkably well, was dressed in plain clothes, and wore the blue riband with the star of the Order of the Garter. The Marquis of Abercorn also wore his star and riband. Before leaving, his Royal Highness desired that three cheers should be given for the success of the work; which were given by the sailors, and three more for her Majesty and the Prince. His Royal Highness re-entering his carriage, was most enthusiastically cheered by the assembled crowds outside the building. A liberal collection was made at the church door in aid of the binding fund, which, we under stand, is still between 2,0001. and 3,000/. short of the esti mated sum required-9,0001. DZATH IN A. STATION-HOUSE.—Monday, an inquest was held before Mr. Baker, at the Marlborough Head, Foxes-lane, Rateliff, on the body of Hannah Barker, aged twenty-seven, who died in a police-station on Saturday night last. It appeared from the evidence of police-sergeant Harris, 17 K, who was on duty at King David-lane station, Shadwell, on Saturday night, that the deceased was brought there on a charge of stealing 12s. from the wife of a man With whom she had been drinking. The prisoner was very violent and much excited. He sent for Mrs. Douglas to search the deceased, who exclaimed with a fearild oath that she had no money except twopence in her possession. Directly afterwards sixpence in halfpence were taken out of her left hand. About a quarter of an hour afterwards she called for sonie water, and it was handed to her through a wicket door of the cell. Soon afterwards she again called for water, and her wants were supplied. A few seconds after she had drunk the water Harris heard her fall heavily on the floor. On opening the door of the cell he found her lying on the floor, groaning as if she was in great agony. He immediately sent for Mr. Ross, a surgeon, who found her quite dead. The surgeon was of opinion thllt the deceased died from apoplexy, brought on by excessive drinking. The brain was in a state of congestion. The jury returned a verdict to that effect. LOAN SOCIETIES.—The annual accounts of loan societies for last year, presented to Parliament, have been printed. A little arrangement in these accounts would save a great deal of trouble. It seems from an examination, that the accounts contain a statement of 144 loan societies, of which 42 are situate in Middle sex. It would appear that these societies are not very profitable concerns. Persons are generally induced to obtain a loan, which is spent in a few days, and they find it no very easy matter to pay weekly sums for a period of a year. In Middlesex last year two were discontinued, and eighteen others yielded no net profits after the payment of interest and the cost of management. To three societies in Tottenham-court-road there were as many as 5,352 ap plications for loans last year. One of the societies in Tottenham court-read had 2,395 applications in the year, of which 1.957 were borrowers. The net profit of the concern amounted to 136/. 14s. 4d. There are sixteen loan societies in Liverpool, one of which had nearly 4,000 applications last year; the society granted only 1,776 applications.. _ • — A few days since a person, genteelly dressed, was observed standing at the window of a respectable Jeweller of Dublin, as if admiring the rich works displayed for sale inside. He had an umbrella placed carelessly under one arm, and, while he was gazing, another individual who was passing, apparently prompted by a love of mischief, contrived adroitly to thrust the umbrella through the glass, and escape, while the unfortunate gentleman stood on the spot stupifled with astonishment. A shopman rushed out and demanded. why he had broken the window ; he denied that he had done it, but appearances were against him, and he was obliged to enter the shop to settle the affair. The proprietor of the establishment demanded payment for the damage done, and when the other talked of his com plete innocence, - threatened to send for the police. The pane of glass was strong plate, and the cost 30s. "It is enormous," said the un fortunate. " I paid it, and you must," replied the jeweller. " Here is 2s. 6d.," said the stranger. " Send for a constable 1" indignantly ejaculated the man of metal. He was inexorable, and the other at length submitted, complaining bitterly, but observing, justly, that a gentleman couldn't go to a police-office ibr a trifle. He took out three 201. bank notes, gave one of them to the pacified jeweller, re ceived 181. 10s. sterling as his balance, and retired. A friend dropped into the shop shortly after—the occurrence was mentioned—the note was shown as a :corroborating proof; it was a forgery.--Dublin Horning Register._ EFFECT OF PUBLIC EXECUTIONs.--On Monday morn ing Mr. W. Carter held an inquest at the Sea Lion Tavern, Wootton street, Cornwall-road, Lambeth, on the body of Charles Copeman, aged 14 years. Thomas Copeman, a shoemaker, residing in Bates's buildings, Lambeth, deposed that the deceased was his son. On Thursday last, about noon, witness left home for a short time, direct ing the deceased to finish some work. Witness returned in an hour afterwards, and on opening the door of the room where he left the deceased, he found him hanging to the fop rail of the bedstead, sus pended by a long leather strap. Witness called for assistance, when a neighbour named Clarke, came in and cut deceased down. A sur geon was soon in attendance, who opened a vein, but life was quite extinct. ,The deceased was of a cheerful disposition and of sound mind : The deceased was continually speaking of public executions, and fre quently trying the effects of hanging, which he took great fancy to ever since he witnessed the execution of the man Tapping at New gate. Witness was of opinion that the deceased was tr , i t r . ig th an e d ex e. - yeriment in the way of play.

It is even said that Sir Robert Peel intends to make this arrangement part of his forthcoming budget. The repeal of many of the Excise duties, and the expected repeal of others, render some change necessary. and the present united revenues of both the existing boards do not amount to so large an income, it is said, as was formerly collected by one board alone. RATHER SINGULAR.—About a fortnight ago, as a man named Thomas Holland was in the act of digging a grate in the yard of Cowgill Bridge Church, in Dent, when he had dug about font feet deep he came in contact with a skull. On taking it up, he found in the inside a quantity of hay and straw, out of which, to the no small amazement of Mr. Holland, jumped two full grown mice. How they got there, or what was their fancy for building a nest so much below the surface of the ground remains a mystery.—Preston Chronicle. HULL ANDBRIDLIIWTON RAILWAY.-It is confidently asserted that the whole line, thirty miles in length, will be opened in July. The most active progress is making with the works upon every part of the line, and perhaps nowhere are these operations more conspicuous than in Beverley, where the rails already cross on the level Flemingate, or the high road to Hull, near the Minster. Yet so tardy are some of the landowners in giving up possession, that the workmen have taken it by force and re-taken it several times. This has been the case with respect to the site of the station at Be verley, of which the Beverlonians will ere long have just reason to be proud. Messrs. Hutchinson and Siminson have taken the Beverley contract for stations, &c., which comprises the whole of the buildings from that town to Hull, including stations, gatekeepers' lodges, ware houses, coal depots, &c. The sum, we hear, is between 20,0001. and 30,0001. Messrs. Hall and Brown, of Leeds, are the contractors (to a somewhat similar amount and for similar buildings) from Beverley to Driffield, including the Driffield station ; whilst Mr. Haystack. of Leeds, has undertaken the two next contracts from Drifileld to Burlington, and Burlington to Filey. The Beverley station will in deed be an elegant affair, being 350 feet in length, with a light iron and glazed roof (after the fashion of the York, Melton , &c, stations). 64 feet wide, and having on each side a platform 19 feet wide—or about seven feet wider than the Hull platforms.
