TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1819. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE. [FURTHER PARTICULARS.I CORONER'S INQUEST. --Yesterday afternoon RD Inquest w•+s held at the Unicorn, Covent-garden, before ANTHONY GaLL,Esq. Coroner, on the body at Mrs. Mary Ann Burnell, aged 35, wife of an Officer in the Army. The inquest excited eonsi• derable interest in the neighbourhood, anti the Jury-room was crowded to excess by respecta ble persons, anxious to ascertain the nature and result of the case. 0»e of the jurymen appealed to Mr. Gen - , the Coroner, to be informed whether any person whatever, bad a right time after the Jury and Co• wrier were accommodated ? The Coroner replied, most certainly, the Jury ought first to be accommodated, anti other per sons-Blight to give way to them ; but they were there doing justice—it was an open Court, and every person, as long as there was sufficient room, bad as Mach right there as themselves. Mr. _Edward Spragg, printer, of 27, Bow-street, being sworn, stated, that he never before saw illy deceased to his knowledge, until yesterday morn ing about six o'clock, when he was called'ont of his bed by sonic persons residing in • Martlert •court, Bow-street ; they informed him that a fe male was at the top of his printing-office, ap partnily deranged ; he went out and - saw that she was there in a very perilous situation. Site only bad on her night gown and petticoat, and was kneding on the poodles.--She had endeavoured to get through, a \vindow of the ick's Head Tavern, Bow -street, prior t.it arriving there. He sent for the Garrick's HeVl servant, who came, and getting in * the loft, endeavoured to persuade her to come down; She answered, "-No, no, I will. not ; I ~tm here .uuder the protection of God, and l am happy I have made my escape." She was in such a dangeroas sittration that no person could possibly render her any assistance. At about. o'clock, Mr. Hirlson, a perfot met newly engag- Drury-lane Theatre, who was intimatek , ac quainted with the deceased, came on mein,; sent for, and persuaded her to come down, on which she said, " nothing should ever untke her ;" and al though .he was a friend she threw the tiles at him. Soon after she consented to come down with much persuasion ,on an understanding that she should not be confined. She came down very carefully, and was taken into the printing-office, where a large clasp knife was lying on a piece of Iron plate; she seized . it, and threatening to murder any body who interfered with her, brandished it over her head ; she got to the door, and Mr. Spragg laid hold of her arm to prevent her going out, but she made a rush -and went into the court ; she ran along Martlett-court, down Drury-lane, through Marquis-court, where site ran into Mr. Roache's, the theatrical bookseller's, and from thence site proceeded to Brydges-street, followed by allow thirty persons. On arriving near Exe ter-stteet, she stabbed.hersell two or three times in the side. She was taken to the shop of Mr. Greaves, a sergeon. ..Witness followed ; she was bleeding profusely.. A young man who had taken the knife from the' deceased's side gave it to wit ness. Site died shortly after. While the surgeon . was examining the wound she told him it was of no use to attempt to restore her, and made use of other words. John Timer, of Duke's-court, Bow-street, de posed to having seen the deceased on the top of the house of Mr. Spragg, and he assisted in get ting her down. lie followed her into Brydges street. In Drury-lane the waved the knife, and said to the people, " It you attempt to touch me, I will stab, yott,broogli the body ;" at this time she , vas nearly in a stare of nudity ; in Brydges. street she stabbed heeselt under her breast ; she was about a yard from witness at the time. On observing the act, he ran towards her, and pulled the instrUment from her side. She exclaimed, " 1 said .1 would do it, and now I have done it." Viritness assisied het tO a. surgeon's. Mr. Charles Augustus Hudson, of Drury-lane Theatre, deposed, t'lat he ha . d knoWn the de ceased about six years ; she was a married lady ; her husband is an Officer in the At my ; they lived together; there was now and then a trifling•dif rereuce between them, but not of.any seilinus kind ; he believed it chiefly arose in consequence of dilfereoce - of persuasion, the decraied being a strict Roman Catholic and her husband a Pro testant. The elect-ased latterly had been an Ac tress ; she performed at the Brighton Theatre, under the management of Mr. Brunton, and went by the assumed name of Belfield. He always ob served a flightiness and inconsistency of conduct about her, especially within the last three weeks; site spent the day with him on Tuesday, when 'she came to town ; she slept at the Garrick's Head, but during her stay in town she princi pally victualled with his family; she was not in want of money ;- her fatuity was of great respec tability. Thursday night she went in a coach to Mr. Morris, of the Haymatket Theatre, to ob tain an order for admission ; he was very much engaged and could not be seen ; on which site ordered the coachman to drive to Greenwich, without having any business there. She after wards said she had .walked about all night., The Jury returned a Verdict—" That the (Imamd put an end to her own exi s tence, being at the time in a state of insauity."—The deceased was a fine looking woman. COMMON COUNCIL ADDRESS.—The PRINCR RE. GENT has appointed Thursday next, at two O'CIOCk, for the Sheriffs of London to wait upon him at Carlton House, to learn his RoyAl pleasure as to eceiving the Address of the Common Council, respecting the late proceedings at Manchester; and it is understood that the time appoitqed, will 4e et, art early hour on Friday morning. LONDON SE . SIGNS. IRON CoPvrNl.— Edward Jacob Bridgman was indicted tor having a ssaulted Jacob Frewin, one of the Pari§h Officers of St. Andrew's, Holborn, in the execution of his duty. The defendant was patentee of the newly-invented iron coffin, about which there has been so • innc,, discussion, and on a refusal to inter a body, because•it was inclosed in one of his coffins, the assault complained of was committed. A conversation too k place between the Re corder and Mr. Walton!, upon the practice Of burying in'iron coffins, in which-he stated that much inconvenience must arise from it, especially in sthall Church-yards, where the groves' would soon be filled up to.the surfate. The defendant denied this, and said that the coffins being made of sheet iron, would be eaten up by rust as soon as the corpse would be de vourcu by worms. The proce-ss would be much quicker than was generally imagined. Frewin, the prosecutor, gave au account of elte- disturbance, and said that stones and mud flew about in all directions ; the defendant, in going up Holborn-hill, gave hint a desperate blow in the month. Mr. Bridgman, in his defence, said, that the action was brought at the instance of the parish, in order to serve as a cloak to the violence com mitted upon him; that he had been seized in the churchyard, In the performance of his solemn duty, by eight parish officers, among whom was the prosecutor, who abused him in the most ruf fianly manner; that he was pinioned by 'two men at each side, and that the prosecutor held him by the collar, and behaved with extreme violence towards hint ; that the prosecutor struck him with his staff on the head, upon which he turned round to speak to him, on which Fiywin ,aid, " Wha; ! would you strike an Officer ?" The de fendant added, the Officers who conducted him along were most of them intoxicated, for there bad been a parish feast that day; and that Fre mil himself was at a loss, at Guildhall, how to in'roduce a charge, which he at last brought un der awkward' citcum3tanees. Bridgman, a relation to the defendant, stated, that he had followed the . defendant up Holborn, had seen Frewin strike him, and that no , resistance had been wade. Two other • witnessed deposed to the same effict. The REcoaDER, in summing lip, said alit those who (lid not wish to bury their friends in wooden cofliEs . , might ceilainly put them in iron ones, but he thought it only fair that they should bo to the expence of interring them in vaults. The ‘iefenclaut was Acquitted. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The Middlesex Sessions commenced yesterday, at a few minutes after ten o'clock, before F. CONST, Esq. the Chairman, and a Benet, of Ma gistrates. When the Grand Jury had been called over and sworn (which occupied about half-an hour, a number of the names on the panel not appearing, and several excuses being offered for their absence), they were addressed briefly by the Chairman : He had the pleasure, he said, to inform them, that the, arduous task 'they were called upon to discharge, would not be near so severe as for many reasons they might have expected. From the state of the calendar, it appeared ;that their duty would be lighter than usual , and that they would probably be occupied a much shorter por• Lion of time than any Grand Jury had for a long period. It contained no murder, but one man.: slaughter, no atrocious offences, nothing out of the ordinary comae of business. and the indict inents for minor offences were not numerous.— The Court would not trouble the Jury to return hills in the middle of the day, which had .been found attended with inconvenience on both sides, but would send to them at the end of the day. He did not see it necessary to delay them tram entering .an their duties by any fur:tier re-, marks. The Grand Jury then retired, and the Court proceeded to the traverses, of which the number is fifty-seven. borne cases of assault of an immaterial descrip ion_Avere tried. Since the last Sessions very considerable altera- tions have been made in the Court. The Jury box 'has been greatly thrown forward and en larged ; the witness's-box is placed between it and the bench ; the table has ill consequence been contracted in length, and enlarged in breadth, forming, instead of a segment of a cir cle, which it did before, or nearly, a very re gular polygon. A partition'of wood has also been introduced, inside and parallel to the great door, with a small space,between. Some change has also been effected in the construction of the gallery. 'Pie alterations are not yet completed. Whether, generally speaking, they shall be found improvements, experience must decide : but to asie class of persons their operation has been as yet the r everse--those whose duty it, is to report the proceedings of the Court.

These prosecutions were conducted by Messrs.

The Defend - a - k personally addressed the Court, and attempted *to show he had received provoca tion and insult ; his Counsel (Messrs: Alley and Adolphus) and the Conti interposed, when De. • tendant at length acknowledged he' had • acted wrong, and was extremely sorry for'it, and hoped that all the Prosecutors would be sati,fied with his apology; upon this the Prosecutors a;;reed to forego the further rii,l of the indictments, and a Juror was immediately withdraWn. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Sm.. 13. A Lieutenant on halrpav of a foreign regimen% was opposed by 3.llTatson, of Long-acre, coach- maker, for having' fraudulently °blamed a gig and harness from him, which he afterwards sold for about one half of the cost price. The Insolvent was opposed by telr. ADOLPHUS, and defended by Mr. lia.v.rn. It appeared that about twelve months ago, the Insolvent introduced himself to Mt.' Watson, by using the name of an Officer of high rank in the Army, and s , ltied - that be was in want, of a gig and harness ; he agreed for one at the price 0! 701. and gave his Own acceptance at 3 months, for the amount, priyable at Drummouds'. The . .et;; was picked up and sent to Aberdeen, by his d tic ions, to meet him there. When his accept:. auce became tine, it was not paid, the answer be , rob s " No eflecte." A Clerk from Messrs. Drummonds' house was examined, who proved tlia; the 'lnsolvent had 'not any funds in their hands sincethe year 181?,. and it turned out that the gix and harness 'were sold • by the Insolvent in . Aberdeen, as sod') as landed; for the 'sum of 401.
