The subscription to the Shakspere fund, esta blished by Mr. Halliwell, has reached £2,706. After the Christmas holidays, M. Fechter will play lago alternately with Othello.—Athencetn. LYNN AND HIINSTANTON RAILWAY.—The first sod of this line was turned in the course of last week. The project was first brought before the public in the autumn of 1855, and a commencement has at last been made with the works. At Lloyd's on Saturday 10 guineas per cent. were offered to effect fresh insurances on the mail steamer North Britor, which is three days overdue from Montreal. Fifteen gaineas hava been paid on the ship James Wilson, from Melbourne, but upon the gold by her the rate is still eight guineas. We understand that in a few days a grand dis play is likely to take place at Aldershot. A combined attack is to be made on the fortifications at Hungry-hill, which will be mounted with Armstrong guns. Pickets patrols, and outposts will be thrown out, extending from the Royal Arms to the Lower Farnham-road.. MESSRS. BRIGHT AND THEIR CARPET WEAVERS' —At the Rochdale Police-court o a Friday, Henry Cox, John Matthews, Thomas Clayton, and Michael Carter, were sum raoned for annoying and intimidating David Butterworth. Mr. Cobbett appeared for Messrs. Bright, the actual com plainants, and Mr. Ernest Jones for the defendants, who some weeks since left Messrs. Bright's employ in conse quence of an alleged but denied diminution of the rate of payment for carpet weaving. Mr. Jones raised the point that several allegations were included in the one informa tion, and that this was fatal. Mr. Cobbet urged that though there were offences on different dates, they consti tuted but one continuous offence. Their worships ruled that the objection was fatal, and it was agreed to issue new summonses, returnable on Friday next. INQUEST IN BETHLEHEM HOSPITAL.-0a Satur day Mr. W. Payne, the coroner, held an inquest in the Board-roam of Bethlehem Hospital, on the body of Anthony Nyland, aged 53, a criminal lunatic, who died in that institu tion. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Helps, sur geon to the hospital, that the deceased was tried at the Old Bailey in 1830, charged with cutting and wounding, with intent to murder, but was acquitted on the ground of insa nity, and ordered to be detained during his Majesty's pleasure. His career had been a somewhat remarkable one. He had formerly been a bagpiper in the band of a Scotch regiment. Before he committed the offence with which he was charged he had been an in mate of Hanwell Lunatic Asylum, from which he made his escape. While ho was in Newgate awaiting hi- trial he succeeded in making a hole through the wall of his cell by means of the handle of a shovel and the blade of a small table knife, but the high walls offering an insurmount able obstacle to his further progress, he was unable to carry his intentions into offect. Since he had been ren.oved to Bethlehem, he had several times attempted to make his escape, but had been unable to an so in consequence of the constant watch that was kept upon Lim. He was found dead in his bed on Thursday morning. A peai mnrge m examination showed that his death was produced by disease of the heart, attended by pulmonary consumption. A verdict was returned in accordance with the medical testimony. st 2s 6d 10s. 10 1. 0. 6. 97 99 99 100 87 89 89 91 101 103 9i 10 10i 17i 10} 1(4 75 77 201 20 10 104 1 151 100 ICO 100 100 8.13.4 100 100 100 100 100 100 .35 137 112 115 112 115 136 138 112 115 102 104 150 155 127 130 73 75 91 92 92 94 11 114 4 die par 99 100 125 0 PREFERENCE SHARES.

Only moderate supplies of wheat were on sale in the leading country markets, held on Saturday; nevertheless, the demand was in a sluggish state, and prices had a droop ing tendency. Malting barley was in improved request, at full quotations, but grinding and distilling sorts were a dull inquiry. Other kinds of spring corn were firm in value. Flour, however, ruled somewhat heavy. _ . Produce is giving way in the States, and the French markets, generally, are very flat. Very moderate quantities of English grain were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad amounted to 34,072 quarters of wheat, 13,592 barley, 29,001 oats, 3,676 beans, 6,775 linseed, 6,776 rapeseed, 850 maize, 205 sundry seeds, and 14,397 barrels of flour. The show of samples of English wheat at Mark-lane to day was very limited, but nearly the whole of the supply came to market in excellent condition. Factors generally were firm in their demands, and most descriptions were held at fully last Monday's quotations, at which, however, buyers were disinclined to operate freely. Prices, com pared with this day se'nnight, exhibits no material change. At the close of the market, however, a fair clearance was effected. With foreign wheat we were well supplied. Very little change took place in the value of any kind, but sales pro gressed slowly. Importers generally, were sellers only at quite last Monday's currency. The business doing in cargoes afloat was to a very mode rate extent. On the whole, however, the quotations were fairly maintained. The supply of English barley was by no means large, but of foreign tolerably extensive. The trade, generally, was in a sluggish state, at late rates. The finest malting quali ties, however, were easy of sale. Fine good malt sold steadily at full prices, otherwise the malt trade was inactive, on former terms. Oats, the supply of which was only moderate, changed hands slowly at previous currencies. Beans were in limited supply, and all descriptions fully supported last Monday's prices. Peas were not in active request, nevertheless the quota tions ruled firm. The supply on offer was small. The business done in flour was by no means extensive. Prices, however, were well maintained.

To-day's market was but moderately supplied with foreign stock, the general quality of which was by no means first-rate. On the whole, the demand for [it ruled steady, at previous rates. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were only moderate for the time of year, both as to number and quality. Prime Scots, crosses, &c., com manded a steady sale at full prices; but it must be under stood that 5s 2d per 81bs was an extreme value. Inferior stock moved off slowly at last week's currency. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire, we received 2,400 short-horns, &c.; from other parts of England, 4,000 var'ous breeds ; from Scotland, 80 and, 750 oxen and heifers. Scots and crosses ; and from Irel The show of sheep was again moderate, and the quality of most breeds was inferior. Downs 'and half-breds com manded a steady sale at full quotations. Others , ise, the mutton trade was in a sluggish state on former terms. The best Downs were worth 5s 8d per Blbs. Calves—the supply of which was small —changed hands steadily at Thursday's reduced rates. The top figure was 5s 2d per Blbs. Owing to the large arrivals up to Newgate and Leaden hall, the pork trade was in a sluggish state, and prices were a shade lower.

ROLLS COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.) JUDGMENT-IN RE BLUNDELL'S TRUSTS. The Master of the Rolls, in delivering judgment, said— I have again read over the papers in this case, and I am of opinion that the only order that I can make is an order in terms of the declaration of the trusts of the wills. Costs of all p arties to be paid out of the estate. JUDGMENT-IN RE BROOK'S WILL. His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—l am of opinion that the respondent must pay the petitioner his costs. I have looked into the cases on the subject, and I find it will not be necessary for me to remit the account to be taxed. I think £2.5 should be allowed as costs, instead of making an order sending the account to be taxed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day). MAR LBOROUGH-STREET. STABBING A HUSBAND.—Sarah Wiley was charged be fore Mr. Beadon with stabbing her husband, Edwin Wiley, a booteloser, of 6, Crown-street, Soho. The prosecutor said the prisoner was his wife, and they had been married about a year. On Sunday morning they woke together, and she got out of bed and said, " You -, I'll have your heart out," at the same time pointing to a spot of blood on her dress, which was hanging up. They had words on the previous night, when she got a kettle of boiling water to throw over him, and the blood was on her dress through her nose bleeding by accident, and not by a blow. After she had exclaimed " I'll have your heart out," she seized a knife from his work seat, and he then jumped out of bed, and she followed him to the other end of the room. She then cut up some of his cicthes, but he did not go near her, as he was afraid of her. She then came up to him with the knife and dress in her hands, and said, "Look at that," pointing to the spot of blood, and "I'll have your blood for it," and she then stabbed him in the wrist as he put up his arm to defend himself, and he then sent for a constable, and while his mother was gone she stabbed him again in the muscle of the arm, making two deliberate stabs at him (the knife was produced, and was a sharply-pointed one, used by boot closers), repeating one after the other. The doctor said at the Charing-cross Hospital that they were serious stabs. Ho then ran out and the constable took the prisoner into custody. In answer to a question, the prosecutor said he had never struck his wife at all. Prisoner said hPr husband had struck her, but that was denied, and although she said her neck was marked none were apparent. Robert Wiley proved seeing the prisoner strike the pro secutor (his brother) twice with a knife in the arm. He distinctly saw the knife enter his brother's arm and the blood flow. His brother did not strike the prisoner, but merely held up his arm to ward off the blows. In answer to a question, the witness, who was about 18 years of age, said he slept with his mother, and his mar ried brother and his wife slept in the same room. Mr. Beadon remanded the priooncr for a week, and told him to procure a certificate from the hospital. The prisoner was then remanded. THAMES STEALING A Tnuss or HAY.—lianiel Macarthy, a milk man and labourer, in the employ of Mrs. Elizabeth Sea man, cowlreeper and dairy woman, of Rosemary-lane, was charged with stealing a truss of hay, the property of his mistress. On Saturday evening Kelly, a police constable, No. 130 H, met a boy coming from Mrs. Seaman's premises with a truss of hay on his head. Kelly followed the boy to the shop door of Mr. Lancaster, a tradesman, where the pri soner was waiting. Kelly asked the prisoner if the hay belonged to him, and he replied " his is my hay, I work for Mr. Gilbert, in the lane," meaning Rosemary-lane. Kelly asked the prisoner if it was Mr. Gilbert's hay ? The prisoner said "No, I bought it for my own use." Kelly was not satisfied, and conveyed the prisoner to the station house, where he stated to the inspector that he had two cows of his own, and the hay was his property, Mrs. Sea man was then sent for, and she said something to the pri soner which the officers present did not catch, and the prisoner said " It's the first time ma'rm, I am very sorry." The prisoner then admitted stealing the hay and giving directions to the boy to carry it away. Although the pri soner declared it was his first offence there was reason to believe he had been for some time plundering Mrs. Seaman and another cowkeeper, by whom ho was employed. His earnings were 18s. per week. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was immediately sen tenced to four months' imprisonment and hard labour. THE STRAND 111URDE.R. After the removal of Richard Reeves from the 13ow-stteet police court back to the station on Sa turday to await the arrival of the police van, it is stated that the father of the wretched youth was permitted to see him in the police cell in the pre sence of a constable, and that although he did not hesitate to confess that he had strangled his sister, the only motive he would assign for the commission of so diabolical an act was that she had aggravated him to do it. On being left, however, the callous demeanour he had previously exhibited gave way to a strong paroxysm of grief, and he cried for some time very piteously. It appears, from inquiry!in the neighbourhood, that both the parents were dissipated people, and frequently got intoxicated, when they fought terribly; and that they were, in fact, in that condition when the discovery was made. The accused worked at his father's business of a basket maker, and was said to be exceedingly in dustrious, indeed, so much so, that the business mainly depended upon him. He frequently quar• relied with the deceased, who was his half sister, of whom he was exceedingly jealous, as whilst he was cuffed and pushed about, particularly by his step•mother, she was a great favourite, and was permitted to ridicule and annoy him with impunity. These are the only motives that can be assigned for the commital of the act. It was generally anticipated that the coroner for Westminster, Mr. Bedford, would have opened his inquest on Saturday afternoon or today, but it appears that it is not to take place u until Tuesday afternooon, at two o'clock, when it is to be held at the Vestry Hall of St. Mary-le- Strand, in New Church-court. During Saturday afternoon Mr. Alfree, of King's College Hospital, the medical gentleman called in to see the deceased, after the discovery, received the coroner's warrant to make a post-mortem examination of the body of the deceased, and shortly after, accompanied by another surgeon of the institution, he proceeded to No. 10, Drury-court, for that purpose. A great crowd was collected, and it required several police men to keep the narrow avenue clear. The result of their examination left no doubt that the deceased had died of suffocation by strangu l a tion. The mise rable youth was at the close of the day's proceed ings at the police court conveyed to Newgate, until he shall take his trial, and had recovered his uncon cerned appearance prior to his arrival at that prison. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A MIDWIFE.—On Thursday an inquest was held at the Leeds Town Hall, touching the death of Eliza Dixon, a single woman, which had taken place during child-birth. A post-mortem exa mination of the body showed that the cause of death was hemorrhage, arising from the placenta not having been removed. It was evident that the midwife had been cul pably negligent, and the jury therefore returned a verdict of manslaughter against her, and she was at once taken into custody, and stands committed for trial at the next winter gaol delivery at York, under the coroner's warrant. It is stated that several steamers have been in sured in London for the run from England to New Orleans and back for 20 guineas per cent. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock.

The meeting at Liverpool last week was a success so far as the fields were concerned; but the questionable running of several of the horses engaged, and the "milking" of others, will not soon be forgotten. How Mr. Merry could send Sir "William to Liverpool and keep the horse in bet ting up to within an hour of the race demands some expla • nation. When an M.P. and a member of the Jockey Club can do such things, how can the smaller and perhaps more honourable class of owners be found fault with for follow ing the example? Prince of Denmark is another that the handicapper ought not to forget, and the same remark ap plies to Bantam. Mr•. Frail has provided four days' excel lent sport for this week if the frost does not interfere with the meeting. The Nursery Handicap has an excellent entry, but I can see nothing likely to interfere with the success of My Mary. Gabrielle d'Estrees ought to win the Gold Cup, as she meets Lady Ripon on 101 b. better terms than in the Liverpool Cup. Gibraltar or Lord of the Manor ought to carry off the Corporation Plate. Flirtation ap pears the best on paper for the Shrewsbury Cup. Queen of Spain should have no difficulty in disposing of whatever may oppose her in the Salopian Stakes. A FRESH MAN. THE FIRST OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF TEE CONFEDERATE TREASURY. The circular of their Secretary of the Treasury gives no very encouraging account of the pecuniary resources of the Confederate States. So complete is the official silence of the rulers of the New Common wealth, that we have now, for the first time, a dis tinct account of the nature of the cotton loan, of which so many vague descriptions have been hazarded. In the first place, it is not a loan or a "subscrip tion" of cotton at all. It gives the Government no right to any specific bales whatever. It is only a❑ engagement on the part of the planter to subscribe, for the use of the Government, a certain sum of money out of the proceeds of a certain number of bales of cotton when sold. The planter re tains the produce in his custody, has the exclusive right of declaring when he will sell it, and at what price he will sell it. The Govern ment get nothing in preesenti, and it is open to the obvious effects of many contingencies whether the Government will ever get anything. The planter may become bankrupt, and the cotton on his estate may be seized by his creditors; or he may be needy and fraudulont, and dispose of the crop surreptitiously. All the Government appears to receive is an order on the factor or commission agent who is to conduct the sale ; but the factor can have no present possession of the cotton, for the Government will not permit it to be brought down to the seaport town where he conducts his business. He can only pay the Government when he receives and sells the cotton, and, especially if the Confederate Government should chance to be unsuccessful, he may never receive or sell it. Some other broker, who has no cognisance of the transaction, may bs selected to sell the cotton and to transmit , the nrnnnpric: fn the plantor From other parts of Mr. Memminger's circular it would appear that just now the planters are ex tremely desirous of cash. What, then, it may be asked, do the Government gat by this uncertain promise to make a loan at a distant period ? They gain, or hope to gain, pre sent credit. They bind the most wealthy part of of the population to give them aid, not indeed now, for even the richest planters have now little money, though much cotton—but as soon as it is in their power. The Government gets all it can from its future subjects, and it must do with it as best it may. The Government must want credit exceedingly. It is issuing promissory notes, which Mr. Mem minger officially tells us have supplanted all the other currency of the country. It is car rying on a war of existence upon credit, and the sole wonder is that it is so successful as it has been. Probably, rather stringent measures would be put in force both by the Government and the populace against any cautious person who objected to take Treasury notes. As the Government are issuing a vast paper currency, it naturally wishes to have some vague connection with real wealth, and asks even the present promise of a nominally secured loan at an indefinitely distant period. Such is the glimpse which Mr. Memminger affords of his own Treasury. The account he gives of that of the planters is not much better. It ap pears they want a loan, too. As they are to lend to the Government something hereafter as soon as they have sold their cotton, they ask the Govern ment to lend them a little now to carry them over the trying interval previous to its sale. The Go vernment is issuing countless promissory notes, and the planters would like, not unnaturally, some for their own use. But upon this Mr. Mem• minger is even amusingly stern. He is not defi cient in political economy. He says he wants his notes for himself. He has a very expensive war to carry on, and his resources are tried to the utmost, and no portion of them can be squandered. If he helped the planters he would issue so many notes that the whole currency would be depreciated, and so the Government would have to pay in a medium which has become less and less efficient every day. It is evident that the difficulty which we pointed out many months since is really pressing upon the Confederate States. We showed on March 26, 1861, that the Southern States were utterly defec tive in pecuniary resources—that the deposits in their banks were only £15,000,000, a little more than those of a single London joint-stock bank. Mr. Memminger recommends the planters to ask aid from the banlxa; but if the banks had plenty of money to lend, the planters would not have peti t tioned Mr. Memminger.—Economist. It is reported that Air. Maelise has been offered a knighthood, and, like Mr. Thomas Fairbairn, declined the same. THE FRENCH STEAMERS .—We Herapath) hear that the Emperor Napoleon has eight steamers of 3,206 tons each building or to be built on this side of the Channel for the West India service, the individual cost of which is to be £llB,OOO, with £12,000 additional for furnishing. The steamers for the East are said to be of 4,000 tons each, and to cost £lBO,OO. There is also to be a line of lar g er s h ips than those for the West Indies to go to North America s wonder whether ohe £40,000,000 deficit of his Imperial Majesty will act as any bar to his steam navigation enter prises. MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF A LUNATIC IN COLNEY HATCH AS-Mt:M.—On Saturday afternoon a highly -respect "' able jury was empanelled before Mr. G. S. Brent, th e d e puty coroner for West Middlesex, in the C oun t y Lunati,, A s yl u m, Colney-hatch, for the purpose of inq u i r i ng i nto the circumstances relative to the death of Joseph Bing, a a in ge a d w 2B a , rd a p o a f t m ie l n i t e i h n h th e a N t va a s sy a l n um in , who was as i f t ° a ll ;p d ea B r tn e t d that the deceased was idiotic, and had been in the asylum since the 20th of July last, He was in No. 14 ward, which is appointed for idiotic and dirty patients, and on Tuesday last he was found dead at the bottom end of the ward, with a handkerchief round his neck, There was some evidence as to one of the other patients in the ward having spoken to the effect that deceased had been strangled by another of the patients, but it was not clearly proved that any one saw the act done. Tho medical evidence showed that death was caused by strangulation. There did not appear to be any blame attachable to the officers of the asylum. Ultimately the jury returned the following verdict : That Joseph Bigg was found dead in a ward of the asylum aforesaid, and that his death was occasioned by the mortal effects of suffocation from strangulation by means of a certain handkerchief placed round his neck, and that the said handkerchief was placed round the neck of the said Joseph Bigg and that the said strangulation was thereby caused by souse person or persons to them the j urors known," THE SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHO' OF 1862. On Saturday preparations were commenced at the Baker -street Bazaar, to finish up the term of en gagement with the Smithfield Club in a manner worthy of the establishment, and more than ordi- nary attention will b e pa id t o th e com f or t of visi tors to the ensuing show, so that ladies will be en abled to witness the last of the West-end exhibitions of fatted cattle with perfect facility. Amongst the novelties, although it is understood that they will not be entered as competitors for prizes, various breeds of cattle from the Florence Exhibition of stupendous size and marvellous sym-• metry will, it is anticipated, be exhibited, and form a marked contrast to several specimens of the dizni. nutive Brittany cows, some breeds of which at tracted so much attention, especially of the fair . .sex, last year, and which are amongst this year's entries. The show itself will have several additional classes, in accordance with resolutions adopted at the last annual general meeting of the Smithfield Club, and the money prizes have been increased to an extraordinary extent, compared with former years, amounting in the cattle classes to £935, in, the sheep classes to £3OO, and in the pig classes to £BB, or a gross of money prizes amounting to £1,400. The Devon breed of cattle will occupy four classes, for which money prizes to the amount of £l7O have been awarded. Hereford breed (four classes), prizes £170; Sussex breed (two classes), money prizes £80; Norfolk or Suffolk polled breed (two classes), prizes £3O ; long-horned breed (two classes), prizes £3O ; Scotch horned breed (two classes), prizes £45 ; Scotch polled breed (two classes), prizes £45 ; Irish breed (two classes), prizes £3O; Welch breed (tv‘o classes) prizes £35 ; and to the cross or mixed breeds of cattle, for which there are to be three classes, money prizes amounting to £75, making for the cattle an aggregate of 29 classes. The sheep have 13 classes appropriated to them, viz., long woollcd breeds (three classes), with money prizes amounting to £llO. The new class of Kentish oz Romney Marsh breed (one class), with prizes 0f.£15. The short-woolled breed have also four classes, with prizes amounting to £135. The Shropshire breed (introduced last year), two classes, prizes £4O ; and another new class, " the mountain breed" (one class), prizes £3O; whilst the cross breeds have two classes, with prizes of £5O. The pig classes are four in. number, for pigs not exceeding four months old, above four and not exceeding eight months, above eight and not exceeding twelve months, and above twelve and under eighteen months old. The show will, therefore, consist of forty-six classes, and in addition to the money prizes already specified, there will be six gold medals awarded for the best steer. or ox, the best heifer or cow, for the best pen of long woolled, the best pen of short-woolled sheep, as also to the exhibitor of the best pen of pigs in any of the classes. Besides these a silver medal will be awarded to the breeder of the prize animal in every class, which, with the extra stock and the medal to the butcher who is the largest purchaser, makes a total of fifty-eight silver medals. The stewards for the ensuing show are, for cattle, long woolled sheep, and pigs ;—Mr. Henry Smith, Mr. Charles Stokes. and Mr. Samuel Anstey ; and for short-woolled and cross-bred sheep :—Mr. John Ford, jun., Mr. T. B. Northeast, and Mr. H. Thurnall. In the implement department there are many improvements to be submitted, and from the num ber of entries already received, and the character of the intended exhibitors, the last cattle show at the Baker-street bazaar bids fair to be quite equal, if not superior, to any of its predecessors. 7.1118' TALKING _FISH. (Before Mr. Justice Crompton and a Common Jury BENSHIMOL V. GALLAGHER. This was an action for wages, &c. The defendant pleaded never indebted. Mr. Pearce was counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. D Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. Telford Salter were coup• sel for the defendant. The plaintiff is a native of Gibraltar, and towards the close of the your 1858 he came to this country wan a man named Cavanneh, the owner of the talk ing fish. He ettendcd to it at Gibraltar, and in England up to the time of its death, and this action was brought to racover £6l, for wages, &c., during the time the fish was the property of Mrs. Gallagher. The fish was first exhibited in Lime-street, Liverpool. Whilst there a man named Charles Pollard, the alleged agent of the defendant, visited the exhibition, and after some negotiations, purchased the fish for her for £3OO. Plaintiff had had the education and management of the fish. He wrapped it in blankets at night and slept with it—(laughter)-- and kept it clean and attended to it by day, and when Pollard purchased it he agreed to give the plaintiff £1 per week, sone clothes, his board and lodging, with permission to receive gratuities, which, however, only amounted to a few shillings, for the majority of the visitors, having seen the animal and heard its sounds, were so satisfied with the exhibition that they were glad to get away. (Laughter.) It was a large seal and was kept in a tub of water. Plaintiff denied that he was only to have some clothes, his board and lodgings, and the gratuities. This was a second trial, and singular to say it was on the first occasion tried before the same judge and on the same day of the month last year. The defence was that no agreement was made for the payment of £1 per week. Plaintiff was only to have his clothes, board, and lodging, and the gratuities, and that those were the terms he after wards informed the defendant he had been engaged by Pollard. Pollard was called for the defence. He said the plaintiff frequently got as much as 10s. and 15s. a day from the visitors. He (Pollard) had been offered £1 a week for the situation. He was living with the defendant as man and wife. He was tried once at the Old Bailey, not for bigamy, but for stealing £2,000 worth of bills from the present Emperor of the French. He had had bill trans actions with the Emperor. This took place about fourteen years ago. He was honourably acquitted. He did not know that he got off on a technicality. Mr. Justice Crompton—Were you " honourably acquitted on a flaw in the indictment"—(laughter) —as the late Mr. Baron Watson used to say, or on the merits ? Witness—He was honourably acquitted on the merits. Ho did not know a person named Eliza beth Pollard, and was never indicted with her. He was never charged with causing the death of Dutch Sam's widow. An inquest was held on her, and the verdict was death from natural causes. De- fondant has a house in May-street, Mount-pleasant, Liverpool. It is not a brothel, but a house where you barristers sometimes reside. (Laughter.) Mr. Pearce—l don't go the Northern Circuit. (Renewed laughter.) - Witness—Defendant has another house in Houghton-street, Liverpool. He did not know if that was a brothel. He knew very little of the defendant's private business, or how many y ears he had lived wit h her. (Laughter.)
