EDMONTON PETTY SESSIONS. (Before Mr. BUCHE, Chairman, and Mr. GrusoN.) _Henry George Hewlett, clerk, and John Marshall, porter, in the employment of the Eastern Counties Railway, ap peared to an information laid by John Whitticomb, on behalf of the Company, which alleged that on the 7th of Septem ber, while at the Tottenham station, by the negligent perform ance of their duty, they did not remove, or cause to be removed, a certain horse-box and passengers' carriage off the rail, to the obstruction of the passage of a train, by which obstruction an engine, to which a train of carriages was at tached, was forced off the rail, to the danger of the passengers, and whereby the said engine was greatly damaged. Mr. Wells, counsel for the Company, attended in support of the infiguidgon. Mr. Weil/rfated, that he appeared on the behalf of the Directors of the Eastern Counties Railway Company, to prefer the present charge, which was instituted under the sth and 6th Victoria, c. 55, by which, upon any neglect of duty of their officers (by which neglect passengers were likely to have suffered a serious injury), such officers might imthe diately be taken into custody and conveyed before a magis trate. In the present case the Directors were unwilling to act so harshly toward the defendant, and were desirous that they should have a reasonable notice, in order that they might prepare for their defence. The Directors felt it their duty to adopt this proceeding, in order to assure the public that no efforts on their part would be wanting to ensure the safety of those who go on that line. He would be able to Allow, from the evidence he should produce, that the most efos.s negligence had been manifested by the defendants, while at the Tottenham station, on the day mentioned in the summons. In the afternoon of that day the Cambridge up train, which leaves Cambridge about four o'clock, has to be in London about 45 minutes past 6. It would then pass the Tottenham station about 20 minutes past 6. It was the duty of the defendants to see that the up-rail was completely clear: but it would be proved that at the time the Cambridge up-train was expected to pass, there was an obstruction, which was caused by a horse-box and passengers' carriage,— that a collision was caused between the engine of the train and the horse-box, with the carriage, by the effect of which the engine was forced off the line. The passengers were much frightened ; but, had not the engine-driver seen the obstruction in time, there is no doubt that some lives would have been lost. Both the defendants had been dismissed. The Directors, however, in taking out these proceedings, were desirous that it should be known by their servants, as well as the servants of all other companies, that, by the Act of Parliament, they have the power which we now put in force. The defendants bad always, till this occasion, shown themselves deserving of the confidence that had been pladed in them. Mr. W. Hansom, superintendent of the traffic department of the Eastern Counties Railway, said that it was the duty of the defendant Hewlett to see that the line was clear. The defendant Marshall acted under his instructions. They were both at the Tottenham station on the 7th of September. They were aware that the Cambridge up-train would be at the station about 20 minutes after six o'clock. Cuainmax—How would they know that? Witness— There is a time table. CHAIRMAN—There is no time table when a train does not stop at a station. Witness—lf they attended to their duty properly they would know that the train would pass within three or four minutes of the time it did. It had been running since the 29th of July. By the CuAramAs—ln removing the carriage and horse. box the porter would consult the clerk, but if there was im. mediate danger he would remove any obstruction without orders. Robert Winning, engine-driver, stated that on the 7th of September he left Cambridge with the train about four o'clock. He had a watch with him ; when at a distance of about 100 or 150 yards from the Tottenham station, he ob served a signal near a shed. This was about 19 or 20 minutes after six o'clock. He immediately reversed the en gine, and gave an alarm by the whistle to the guard to put on the breaks, which was done as quick as possible, when the progress of the train was changed from 33 to 8 miles an hour. The signal was by the waving of a hand. In a second or two after he saw the flag. The train was not stopped until a horse box, which was partly on the line, was smashed to pieces, the wheels of which got under the engine, by which it was forced off the rails, and a passenger carriage was also forced across the up and down rails. By the Birch—The orders are when there is any obstruc tion, that a notice of half a mile should be given. My time to be at Tottenham station is from 17 to 20 minutes past 6 o'clock. _ _ William Ayres, a guard, corroborated the evidence, and stated that there were about 40 passengers in the carriages, some ladies, all of whom were much frightened. The dis tance between the signal and the horse-box was about 100 yards. James Blunt, a plate-layer, said that about five minutes before the collision the clerk rdered Marshall to remove the horse-box from the shed, and directed witness to assist him. Before moving it Marshall placed the red flag against the shed. The box had not been °At more than a minute before they observed the train approaching. The superintendent stated that the horse-box was not re quired till two o'clock on the following day, when it would have been wanted for Alderman Copeland's horses. The defendant Hewlett stated, that when the train was expected he was employed, as it was his duty, in making up his account in reference to the last train, which had passed a few minutes before. They are his orders. Marshall knew the time the train was expected, and it was entirely without his knowledge that the horse-box was removed at the time 4t was, and he had no doubt but that Marshall had forgotten the train was coming. Marshall said that he removed the horse-box immediately, having had his instructions from Hewlett, as he was accus tomed on all occasions to do. James Blunt, being called by Marshall, said that whenever they were ordered by Hewlett to remove a carriage, it was always done instantly. On this occasion there was no caution given. The CHAIRMAN having expressed his regret that the de fendants, with the excellent character they had, should be placed in the situation they then were, said that the Bench had a duty to perform to protect the public. It was evident that the passengers had been exposed to great danger in con sequence of their negligence. Mr. Gibson observed that, had the collision been more serious, and life had been lost, theywould have been tried for a more heavy offence, fur which they would have been liable to transportation for 14 years. The defendants were severally fined in the mitigated penalty of 405., or three weeks' imprisonment, the highest penalty being 101., or in default two months' imprisonment. The tines were paid. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Yesterday James Bolton, the driver of one of Messrs. Deacon's waggons, was put to the bar before Mr. Alderman Challis, charged with causing the death of a lad whose name is unknown. Mr. Brass, jun., of Silver•street, builder, stated that he was standing opposite the house, No. 62, Aldermanbury, which is under repair, and against which a ladder was raised, when the waggon came up. There was a track drawn by two boys on the other side of the street. The waggon had to pass between, and is keeping clear of the ladder it ran against the truck. The forewheel caught the handle of the truck, and threw one of the boys down between the fore and hind wheel. The latter passed over his head, and killed him on the spot. The prisoner stopped directly he was called to, but the mischief had happened. He was driving steadily, and he did not impute misbehaviour to him. Mr. Dunnington, of Aldermanbury, gave a similar account of the accident, which occurred yesterday forenoon. He did not consider the act was wilful or negligent. The officer said he knew the owner of the truck. A clerk from Messrs. Deacon's gave the prisoner a good character as a careful steady driver. _ _ Mr. Alderman CHALLIS said, that notwithstanding the favourable tenour of the evidence, he must take care the pri soner should he forthcoming. The inquest would probably be held to-morrow. It must be a consolation and satisfac tion to the prisoner to find that, though he had taken the life' of a fellow-creature, he was not considered blameable. He remanded him until Saturday, with leave to give bail. QUEEN-SQUARE. Maria Locke, wife of the manager, surgeon, accoucheur, &c., to the "Royal Be!grave Lying-in Institution " (respect ing which some extraordinary disclosures took place a short time since), and Ed w i n Locke, her son, were yesterday charged with unlawfully obtaining several pairs of boots from Mr. G. Cawthorpe,bootmaker, of 77, Tothill-street. Mr. Cawthorpe proved, that at the request of the sons of the female defendant he had, at various times, sent seven pairs of boots to the house, for which he was unable to ob tain payment. The boy who delivered the articles was di rected not to leave them without payment ; but, being told that Mrs. Locke, or one of her son., would call and pay his master, he left them at the house. He had called at the house several times, but Mrs. Locke was denied, and he had been unable to obtain the -money: - A policeman, who had searched the defendant's house, proved that he had found three pairs of boots belonging to Mr. Cawthorpe. [ln the course of the proceedings the re maining four pair of boots were brought to the court by a younger son of the female prisoner.] Mrs. Locke said she had no intention of defrauding Mr. Cawthorpe, and that she had gone to his house to ask for credit for a week, as her husband was short of money. Mr. BOND released the defendants on their promising to attend at the Court on Saturday, to meet this or any other charge. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday Mr. Vann, the solicitor, attended before Mr. Broughton, accompanied by Mr. T. Auvache, a master weaver, living in Manchester-street, Bethnal-green, on whose behalf he solicited the magistrate's advice and assistance under the following circumstances : Mr. Vann stated that his client, Mr. Auvache, had given some important evidence at the trial of James Tapping, the man who was executed at the Old Bailey in the early part of the present year for the murder of Emma Whiter, a young woman to whom he had paid his addresses ; and after advert ing to the fact which had been elicited during the prelimi nary investigation of that melancholy case, that the mind of the wretched criminal had been in the first instance inflamed and exasperated against his unfortunate victim by receiving a number of anonymous letters affecting her character, the Learned Gentleman proceeded to state, that the subject of his present application referred to a series of similar communica tions which had been sent to his client, referring to a young woman named Brooks, to whom Mr. Auvache had for a considerable period paid honourable attentions, and was shortly to be married. The anonymous corre spondence of which he complained dated its commence 2nent from the very week in which Tapping was executed, and the letters having been for some time confined to mere vague, but virulent imputations, upon the ,young woman's reputation, which his client was perfectly sat;sfied were wholly false, he paid no attention to them ; but their concealed author having lately given expression to alarming invectives against the object of Mr. Auvache's affections, and in the most direct and unambiguous terms incited him to murder her, his client felt that it was high time to take some decisive steps for the discovery of the offender, and to obtain legal assistance for that purp o se. kis anonymous a ssa il ant, however appeared by some means to have become apprised of the course he had adopted; for on the day after his client had placed the matt er i n hi s (M r. "Vann's) ha n d s , h e had received another letter of a very Alarming tendency, in which the writer, after declaring the against tt•eladpplicant's intended wife, most deadly vengeance expressed his determinatioanr,,,aahtOtilemptMrt.o Auvache hi proceed any further in the matter, hand or protection, to lie in wait for I v oice ? for the young woman'- him and dash out his brains, ;nil ) concluded by declaring that he was fully prepared to expiate th i 'ion the scaffold, and advised him to take this as aysseetereiLLismfeaund final warning 1 malignant and un- the author's intentions. The d Miss Brookes relenting persecution to which his cliennot atpprehension bad been subjected had occasioned the eaant ye r t f amiles, and alarm both to themselves and their rweseitecani iseeeTiebe and, considering his own and the young aced in imminent danger, he had determined upoan li u 4 j.agistrate as to the best measures to adopl i ~.7 'nal safety. /...-... „ 4 ••, ! •f r 4 : ded to the magistrate a large bundle of .‘ Jasiterk,', i,' , ' • • 1 relating to the subject of the present ap mki.',..t - 1 licali 'Sic' ::' , , . s .rusing some of them, 441 hti:-_o9‘, - 41 , ;.; : .sked the applicant if his sispicions 4 14 1 1 " 7. 8 ' .0 A. , : P1 t arp er son that he to be t t he au thor . of d,, ~ replied, had no t t h e lightest Ai a" r idea who could have written them ; for, although he had certainly been threatened with personal violence by a near relative of Tapping, immediately after the latter's execution, for the evidence he had given upon the trial, the threat he had used to appeal to the law for protection appeared to have been effectual, as the annoyance had ever since been discon tinued ; and he was, therefore, quite at a loss to say from what quarter the threatening letters had emanated. Mr. BROUGHTON said, that the feelings of apprehension under which the applicant was labouring were certainly en tirely justified by the menacing tendency of the letters which had been produced, the last of which in particular contained a direct threat against his life; and he should therefore order Fitzgerald, the warrant-officer, to use the most vigilant efforts to discover the author of them,.if possible, in which event he would instantly issue a warrant for his apprehension. The applicant thanked the magistrate for his attention, and left the court with his solicitor. subject. In the head, internally, I found congested blood between the occipital and frontal muscles and pericranium. The parietal bone was fractured to the extent of four inches, opposite to and beneath the external wound. The fracture was a jagged one, and the dura mater was separated from the skull. When I opened the dura mater one ounce of blood flowed from the pericranium. There was congested blood near the brain. There was no other morbid appearances in the head. All the organs of the body, excepting the left lung, were healthy. The condition of the lung had no material effect on the child's health. The injuries to the head, not re sults from natural causes, produced death. By the CORONER—The fracture of the skull was the result of violence—of a blow. All the injuries were simultaneously inflicted by some hard substance. Nothing but a blow or a fall from a great height could have caused them, I never knew such injuries caused by a slight fall. One severe blow would have caused them. RELATIVE CLOSING PRICES OF RAILWAY SHARES IN THE PRINCIPAL CITIES AND TOWNS IN ENGLAND SCOTLAND, AND IRELAND. SHEFFIELD, OCT. 2. Sarah Swantoon, maternal grandmother of deceased, said she was with her daughter about eleven o'clock on Saturday night last, and left her near her home. Witness went about her own affairs, and did not return to her own home for half an hour, when she was told of deceased's death, and went to see the mother. She found two other women with her. The husband came in soon afterwards, and appeared much agi tated, and asked if the child was dead. The witness then corroborated the evidence of the mother of the child relative to the threats and cruelty of her husband towards it, and his constantly expressing a wish that it was dead. Chatherine Shephard said she was called in to see the dead child, and found the mother greatly distressed. She saw the lumps on the child's head, and accused the prisoner of being the murderer. He made no answer. A week before the child's death she heard the accused wish "the little (horrible epithet) was dead." He wished so more than once. The mother was kind to deceased. By the prisoner—When you spoke about the infant you were out of temper. I never saw you ill-use it. Mary Foll, of 15, Somers-street, said she saw the child in its mother's arms, in a pawnbroker's shop, half an hour before its death. It was then awake, and looked remarkably well. On Monday week the accused used expressions against the child too gross to repeat. He frequently wished the child was dead, and said that at night he used to stretch his arm over his wife and strike the child on the head. Mr. Whitfield, the surgeon, re-examined The child's death might have been instantaneous. It might have lived half an hour after the reception of the injuries described. The prisoner here said that a person told him that a man named Hurley had said that he often saw the child fall "from the girl's arms that used to nurse it, and that he wondered it had not died before. The prisoner wished to have him called. A man named Clair corroborated the statement of the pri• soner. The prisoner here addressed the Court, and said that it was true he had in his passion often threatened the child. He had not seen it for an hour previous to its death. If he had killed the child he had plenty of time to escape ; but his conscience told him he was innocent, and he therefore remained to abide the result of the coroner's inquiry, which he knew would take place. The man Hurley here entered the room, and said he often saw the child fall from a girl's arms, or rather slip out of her lap, as she sat nursing it on the steps of the door. He did not consider the falls serious. He did not see the child fall on Saturday last, but he saw it in the girl's arms, who was rubbing its head, whilst it was crying as if from pain in the head. The jury finally, without more than a moment's delibera tion, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against William Hill." QUARTERLY NAVAL OBITUARY, Flag Officers—Vice-Admiral George J.

SUICIDE.—On Tuesday, as two young women were passing along a field near Haverstock-hill, Hampstead, they discovered in a corner thereof a man, to all appearance dead, lying upon the grass. They communicated the fact shortly afterwards to a gentleman whom they met, and on his repairing to the spot he found .the dead body, still warm, of a person apparently not more than twenty-five or thirty years of age. A quantity of blood had flowed from his mouth, and in each hand was a brass-barrelled pistol, one of which had evidently been recently discharged, an d th e ether was loaded with powder and ball. Some constables of the S division speedily arrived and removed the deceased on a stretcher, to the Load of Hay public-house. He was dressed in a blue jacket, blue cap, striped waistcoat, and dark trousers, and in his pockets were a few silver and copper French coins, of but trifling value. There were no papers upon him by which any information could be gained with regard to his name or address. He had moustachios and very large whiskers, and it is supposed that he is a Frenchman. ACCIDENT ON THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. —Between nine and ten o'clock on Tuesday night an acci dent, providentially unaccompanied with loss of life, occcurred to the down goods train, which reached Bishops Stortford near that hour. When the train was within a hundred yards of the station, the engine was unfastened that it might proceed to the rear of the train, and so push it into the sta tion. It had only moved the train a few yards when a pecu liar jerking noise announced that something was wrong; the engine, a very powerful one, was instantly stopped and re versed, when it was found that two trucks, carrying several tons of goods, and consequently extremely heavy, had run off the points, owing to the nob which secured them having been broken by some means or other. A number of men I t v h e a r t e instantly they w ere s g e o t t t o on w t h o rek, rails. bu t i A t was g n ag o t e t o il r l fi h s a h l f ir p a as i nt was obliged to remain at the station for nearly au hour, and the mail train for more than half an hour. The passengers who came by the train, the trucks of which ran off the point, com plained in strong terms of the time they were compelled to remain at the station, some saying, at half-past five in the morning, that they had been there since nine o'clock the preceding night. The luggage train was attached to the mail train, and they proceeded to London. The mail, which was due at twenty-two minutes after five, did not reach Shoreditch until half-past seven o'clock. The greatest consternation was caused amongst those who ex pected friends by the mail, owing to the unusual delay. The accident will be duly investigated. NORTHLEACH.—At Windrush a boy named John Palmer, aged nine years, the son of a labourer, was found drowned in the river at the above place. The circumstances connected with this case are singular, and develop an instance of juvenile depravity. It appears that on the Wednesday preceding the father had occasion to punish the boy for some delinquency by giving him a slight box on the ear, which extorted from him a threat that neither he nor his mother should have an opportunity of beating him again; from that time until the following Saturday he was not heard of; the probability is that he started immediately to the river and perpetrated the deei. A prompt and diligent search was instituted, and the body was found on the 20th of September. Verdict, Found Drowned.— Wilts Standard. MOST IMPORTANT TO BILLIARD TABLE KEEPERS. —TheGames and Wagers Bill has passed in such a form, that all billiard table-keepers, not licensed victuallers, and resi dent elsewhere than in Middlesex and Surrey, will be obliged to shut up their rooms after the 10th of October instant until October 1846, or until Parliament in its wisdom, can pass a short Act to releive them. By the 15th section, billiard table-keepers are to apply for licenses in a simlar manner, and give similar notice to licensed victuallers; but, owing to the measure not having become law till some time after these notices ought to have been given, it is impossible for them to comply, except in the counties of Middlesex and Surrey, where the licensing day occurs in April instead of August. By the 11th section, the Act is to come into ope ration as to all, except those resident in the counties of Mid dlesex and Surrey, on the 10th of October; and each billiard table-keeper will be liable to a penalty of ten pounds a day for keeping his table open with ou t a li cense. This is a great piece of injustice, inflicted by cramming the work of six months' legislation into as many days, and the only mode billiard table-keepers in the country can adopt to save them selves, will be to make arrangements with a licensed vic tualler, and remove the table to a licensed inn. The words in the 10th section—" As near thereto as the' case will allow"—do not help the matter, as it is quite clear they only relate to the form of notice to be given by justices' clerks, of the licensing days, mutatis mutandis.—Worcester shire Chronicle. HERR STAUDIGL.—The • following particulars, which have been communicated to a friend of the great basso, will be read with great interest by the numerous ad mirers of that great artist, and it will be seen how much he is , reverenced and beloved by his brother artists, and the public of his native town (Vienna). On the day of his arrival there, from his late visit to England, a grand serenade will be given him before his house, the street will be guarded by police, and a grand fete will be held—first will be a chorus with quartets, a young Englishman (Mr. John Gregg), who is studying the art of singing there, is entrusted with a solo part; the celebrated Strauss, with the whole of his band, about one hundred ; the chorus will be from fifty to sixty persons. Staudigl is to know nothing of this ; a friend will engage him to his favourite game, chess, while all will be prepared ; it will not take place until ten o'clock at night. The whole of the street will be illuminated ; there will be an assemblage of about 1,000 persons. It will be the first sere nade given to any singer in Vienna. After the serenade there is a grand supper, at which all the principal singers will be present, in full dress. THE ORDERS OF THE ROYAL COMMISSION. —The results of the late exhibition, as regards the orders given to the competitors, do not seem to have been rightly under stood. Mr. Dyce is to execute his car t oon o f " The Baptism of Ethelbert" • in fresco, in the centre compartment of the House of Lords, over the throne; the Commissioners desire to see one fresco done, that they may rightly judge of the effect ; but they have guaranteed to Messrs. Maclise, Horsley, and Cope that these gentlemen shall execute their several subjects (with such revisions as they may consider expedient) in the event of fresco painting being decided on, after the completion of the wor k b y M r. Dyce. It is also open to the two other artists—Mr. Redgrave and Mr. Thomas —to revise their designs; at least, it is so understood ; for uo other artists, treating the same subjects, have been preferred to them; With respect to the other works, Messrs. Horsley, Cope, Herbert, Severn, and Tenniel are commissioned to exe cute five frescoes in a hall where it is proposed to pb too statues of the poets, each artist being to select a subject to i'lustrate the poet who may be allotted to him. Six of the poets are Chaucer, Spenser, Shakspere, Milton, Dryden, .a u a Pope ; there are to be two others, b u t th e y are not yet deter mined upon. The compartments in the Poets'-hall are 13 feet high by 5 feet 7 inches wide. Mr. Maclise was offered a compartment in the Poets'-hall, but he declined the com mission, being desirous of completing his fresco in thy, House f Lords, for which he reserves himself.—The Art-Msion. - - A SECOND CROP OF BEANS.—We have beecn shows a quantity of beans, part of a second crop grown in, a garden on Greenhill, belonging to Mr. William Stalsworth,. of Qriay street.

Some of the waggons were found at low water mark, others were embedded in the mud, and a great number of tools are said to be lost. This part of the line has from the first been deemed by persons acquainted with the locality as impracticable as an attempt to control the tide. The chief engineer, notwithstanding, thought differently, having, as we have been given to understand by a gentleman likely to know, drawn his conclusion from the fact of an old ruin known as the Salt Pans, which is situated near the spot, having preserved its present appearance for a number of years. The intention of carrying the line this way it seems is now abandoned, and a new one will be formed further in shore. This project will be attended with an expense little anticipa ted by the shareholders at the commencement of the under taking.— Whztehaven Herald. THAMES. Yesterday William Chinnerworth, second officer of the Sal sette East Indiaman, was charged before Mr. Ballantine with assaulting Mr. Samuel Riddell, chief officer of that vessel, at sea. Mr. Riddell stated that the ship was from Calcutta, and that owing to the serious illness of the captain he was in command of the vessel. On the 18th of September, just before entering the Channel, the defendant, who came up to relieve him from his watch, used very abusive language towards him, and eventually struck him severe blows on the mouth and eye. Evidence was given to prove the assault. The defendant said the chief officer struck him first ; he returned the blow, and they had a fight. The cook of the ship, a man of colour, who was called on the part of the defendant, said that there had been much ill-feeling between the first and second officers during the passage. Mr. BALLANTINE, after observing that the conduct of the defendant amounted to mutiny, fined him 2/. 10s., and costs; to be committei, in case of non-payment, for twenty days. The fine was paid. SOUTHWARK. Yesterday Mary Brooks, a stylishly-attired woman, was charged with using threats of violence towards a Mr. John Harding. Another charge of a more serious nature, that of deserting her infant, and leaving it in an exposed place, was also preferred against the accused in the course of the proceedings. From the complainant's statement it appeared that some time since he took the prisoner under -his protection, and that, after living with him about three months, she was de livered of a child which she admitted she had had by another man. The prisoner afterwards placed the child, by her ac count, with a nurse at Cheam, in Surrey ; but this fact the complainant does not know of his own knowledge; and, in order to dissolve the connexion that existed between them, he entered into matrimony with another lady. The moment, however, the prisoner found she was discarded, she went to the complainant's house, broke his windows, and threatened him with her vengeance; and as he considered his life was in danger he was compelled to adopt the present proceedings. The magistrate was about to decide the case when one of the parochial officers of Croydon stood forward and said, he charged the prisoner with having deserted her infant, leav ing it chargeable to the parish. The facts were these,—about nine months ago a very interesting baby was found in the passage of a house at Croydon, and while in that exposed situation it had a narrow escape of being trampled to death. The child, however, was rescued and taken to the workhouse, and although every effort had been used to discover the unnatural parent they were fruitless until within the last few days, when they received such information from Mr. Harding on the subject as to leave no doubt the prisoner was the mother of the child. Mr. Harding was examined, and he stated that he re collected when the prisoner took away the infant she had by another man, and she, informed him on her return that she left it at nurse at Cheam, in Surrey. He added, th a t ..✓ he had since ascertained the Child bad been deserted, and left at Croydon, that he had seen it on a recent occasion, and had no doubt of its identity, and he admitted that he was induced to give information to the parochial authorities, owing to the prisoner's misconduct to him on his marrying. The parish officers produced the clothes found on the in fant when it was discovered, and a woman was in court who proved that the prisoner was the person who had made some of them. The prisoner admitted she had a child, but that it was out at nurse, and that Mr. Harding had made the statement against her out of spite for her having expressed her dissent to his marriage with another woman. Mr. CorriNGHA➢i said, after the facts alleged against the prisoner with respect to her being the person who deserted the' infant, instead of his dealing with her for the other charge, he should order her to be delivered up into the cus tody of the parochial officers of Croydon, and taken before the magistrates of that place. The prisoner was then conveyed to Croydon, and ➢lr. Harding, who seemed unwilling to proceed further in the business, was directed to attend to give his evidence there. CHARGE OF CHILD MURDER. Yesterday, at three o'clock, Mr. Mills, Deputy Coroner for West Middlesex, held a protracted inquest at the Coach and Horses, Air-street, Hatton-garden, on the body of William Hill, aged six months. Elizabeth Hill, a very young woman, mother of deceased, examined—Mv husband is a glass cutter, and we reside at No. 26, in this street. About eleven o'clock on Saturday night last I left the baby well and hearty in bed, and went into Leather-lane to buy it some milk. It was then fast asleep. I returned in 15 minutes, and found it dead in bed. The child was not born in wedlock, and my present husband is not the father of it. It was born at my mother's, No. 15, Somers-street, over the way. There was no one in the room when I found the child dead. I had not left it a quarter of an hour altogether. When I went out for the milk I left my husband in the room quite sober, and stand ing with his back to the fire. As I was going out I asked him to go on an errand to my mother's, in Somers-street, and he said he would. When I came back he was gone When I took the child from the bed it made a strange noise in the throat once and then died. On passing my hand over its head, it had no cap on ; I found on the left side, behind and above the ear, a bump as big as the half of a good-sized egg, and a spot of dry blood on the cheek. 1 could see it was a bump from a hit. There was another red dish bump at the back of the head, not so large as the other. My husband was the first person to come into the room, almost directly after me. I said to him, " Baby is dead ; it has been killed some how or other—run and fetch mother." He replied, "Is it-quite dead?" I answered, "Yes, for some minutes." He went and fetched Catherine Shephard from my mother's (my mother not being at home), and he said he had been to fetch Mr. Mullins, surgeon, of Leather-lane, but that he was not at home. He went out again and fetched a doctor (the summoning officer said it was a non-medical man) from Hatton-wall. who merely looked at the child, and said that it had died of inflammation of the chest, and that the bumps on the head were the result of convulsions. When the doctor was gone, I said to my husband, " If you have done it, tell me." He said, "I have not touched the child." I afterwards said, in the presence of witnesses, "You wicked wretch, you have killed the baby. This is the night you have long wished for." He made no answer. The COAONEA here inquired where the husband was ? and having been told that he was below stairs, sent for him, in order that he might hear the evidence, which now assumed a criminatory character. The accused husband then came into the jury-room, and took a seat. He is a mere youth, of small stature, of pert rather than repulsive aspect. The inquiry did not appear to affect him in the least. Witness (in continuation)—My mother laid out the child, and the next morning (Sunday) I went to an undertaker's about a coffin. I then told my husband that I was sure he had killed the baby, when he replied, " that it was no use to say anything to me about it, and to have my own way." I asked him on Monday morning to go to work to get the baby under ground. He said he would not, and that he did not care how it got under ground. My mother also begged him to go to work. when he said "he would never touch a tool again —that he would go for a soldier." I said, "If you had not killed the child, you would go to work." He an swered, " If I am born to be hanged, I shan't be drowned." By the CoßoNen—He did go to my mother's when I asked him on Saturday night, but did not find her at home. The child was ill from its birth until within the last fortnight, when it grew better. It was in very good health on Friday and Saturday last. When I left the child on Saturday night, I placed it in the centre of the bed, with its head on the pil low. When I came back and found it dead, its head was off the pillow, hanging forward, but the rest of the body was in the position I had placed it in. The counterpane was dis turbed, and the top part of the bed clothes looked as if some one had moved them, but not much. I saw that some one had laid their hands down on the clothes. I can swear posi tively that there were no bumps on the clelld's head when I placed it in the bed. The CORONER—What did you mean by saving to your husband, " The night you wished for is come e' Witness— Because he frequently ill-used and threatened the child. About a month ago, in the middle of the night, the child being ill and crying at the time, he said if I did not keep it still he would dash its brains about. I told him I could not help its crying, and that if he hit it, I should hit him. He then struck at the baby, but hit me, and I had a struggle with him to prevent him hitting the child. He hit me on the side of the head and rose up a great lump. He fre quently ill-used me as well as the baby. Cross-examination in chief resumed—About two months ago, during the night, he got out of bed, and thinking I was asleep, he put his hands near me, and pinched a piece out of the calf of the baby's right leg. The wound did not heal until last week. I took the child to Mr. Mullins, surgeon, who ordered me to poultice the wound, and asked how I cou ld live with such a vagabond. I also went to complain of my husband to Clerkenwell Police-court, but they told me I must get a warrant, which I could not do for want of money. After he had pinched the child I said to him, "How could you hurt the poor child so, how could you be so brutish?" He answered, " Before I do anything better to it, I will do something worse very likely." The husband, in an irritated tone of voice—Be cautious what you say. A juror —Be silent, air, she is on her oath. The CouosEtt—By and by you may ask her any questions, but you must not interrupt her now. , The witness in con ti nua ti on —After he knew that I had been at the police-court, he said if I would look over it he would never ill-use me or the baby more. I did look over it, and in a week afterwards he came home and ill-used me dreadfully, and told a woman named Mary Foles and a man named Snilling that he had often beaten the child, and would some day hit it on the head. He has often said to me he would do for it (the child) some day or other. When I mar ried him, five weeks after the birth of the child, he knew all about it, and my mother said to him previously, "Consider, there is a child in the way." He said, "Never mind, I will treat it as my own." A month after our marriage he gave the child a black eye, and in a fortnight after that he began to threaten it. He once hit the child in the stomach whilst it was lying on the floor, and it was very sick for two or three days afterwards. I have nothing more to say. The CORONER (addressing the accused)—Your name is William Hill, and I sent for you as soon as the witness began to state anything legally implicating you. Do you wish me to ask her any questions? The husband—Yes, sir. Ask her when she took the child to the doctor's last ? The wife--Three weeks ago last Monday. The child was then very ill and would not eat. Mr. Mullins's assistant told me it was teething, and gave me a bottle of stuff which did the child a great deal of good, and it was well ever Since. ce an o d f put The h several husband questions not a i n e a d t i a t 1 was f e o r n r i l y n g a t fortnight c s a i n rr c e e n , Saturday night. boTunhde t C o o t u el o l N y E o n u — that il a v l e c 3 , a - o n u no a t ny pa s it ta u t o ? tn make, for aoo In accused w te i m th en y t o : —a c l o h p o y pe of l ti s i h e a d l e l p b , e ,si a t l i l o zd to hear all the witnes ses , an d get The Conoxlitt—You shall hear all the witnesses.

There was a healed wound on the right leg. Behind - the left ear, externally, I observed a blue mark on the scalp, with a swelling upwards towards the vertex There was no abrasion of the skin, and the swelling was caused a short time before death.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. THE GRAND JUNCTION AT CREWE. CREWE, THURSDAY.—To-day, about nine o'clock, a large number of the Directors and Shareholders of the Grand Junction Railway proceeded from Liverpool, by special train, to Crewe (the Shareholders being the invited guests of the Directors), to inspect the extensive works of the Company there, the " town," &c. Thirteen large first-class carriages were filled from Liverpool, and reached the Company's works at Crewe shortly before eleven o'clock. Other guests from Manchester and elsewhere arrived about the same time. They first visited the extensive works which, with their yards, cover an area of about seven acres, chiefly in immense well • lighted sheds and rooms, in which the various departments of making locomotive engines, railway carriages, &c., are carried on. The number of men employed on the works is from 500 to 600, and their wives and families in the village which contains in all about 2,000 inhabitants) will make an addition of more than double the men, or about 1,500 com fortably living under the Company. The premises have been re cently enlarged, and as the Company have in all thirty acres of land in the same locality, there is ample room for such ex tensions as in the increasing traffic of the line may' be re quired. Amongst the company we observed the Chairman of the Directors, Charles Lawrence, Esq., John Foster,, Esq., J. Bold, Esq., and lady, Hardman Earle, Esq., Brebner, Esq., Captain Huish, manager ; J o h n S w i re , Esq., James Thompson, Esq., &c. After viewing the works, the company walked up the village to the new church and schools, . and were highly gratified by inspecting both. The church is in the Norman style of architecture, and a well-finished neat building, with a fine tower. It will accommodate about 650 persons. The schools for boys and girls are also large and commodious, and are well attended. A news-room, lecture room, and assembly-room adjacent were next visited. These are for the use of the workmen of the establishment, and are well provided with newspapers, books, Sm. Lectures or con certs are given frequently in the evenings for their instruction and amusement. The village is rapidly increasing in neat detached cottages with gardens, and all is beautifully clean, and betokens the greatest comfort. The Company have com • pleted, or have in course of erection, no fewer than ninety houses. The guests, to the number of about 200, sat down to an elegant and sumptuous dinner. GLASGOW, BARRHEAD, AND NEILSTON DIRECT. GLASGOW, WEDNESDAY.—The first general meeting of the Proprietors was held at Carrick's Hotel, George-square, Glasgow, yesterday, when, on the motion of the Lord Provost, Sir John Maxwell, Bart., took the chair. Mr. JOIIN TENNENT, the secretary, read the Directors' report, which, after congratulating the Proprietors on the success of the measure in Parliament, proceeded as follows : —They have entered into a contract with Messrs. Brassey, Mackenzie, and Stephenson, for the execution of the whole of the works, within eighteen months after obtaining pos session of the land, and at a price considerably within the Parliamentary estimate. The engineer is also busily en gaged in staking out the line, and your Directors have al ready secured immediate possession of nearly half the land required for the construction of the railway and stations, and similar negotiations are in progress with the remaining landowners. Your Directors have also contracted for a large supply of rails on moderate' terms, and looking to the for ward state of their preparations, and to the well-known energy and resources of the contractors, they consider themselves warranted in assuring the proprietors, that this railway will be completed and opened at an unusually early period from the commencement of the works. They have also entered into an agreement with the Glasgow and Greenock Railway, whereby that Company are to supply carriages and engines, and to work the lines. They cannot but regard this arrangement as highly advantageous, as they have thus secured not only the economical and efficient conduct of the traffic ; but have also avoided the serious ex pense and inconvenience of providing plant and working so short a line. The report further proceeded to state that the Directors had concluded an arrangement with the Glasgow, Kilmarnock, and Ardrossan line, entitling the latter to a use of the Barrhead line on fair payment of toll. This line, in conjunction with the proposed Glas gow, Strathaven, and Lesmahagow, with whom a similar arrangement had been effected, would bring a large accession of mineral and passenger traffic on to the Barrhead and Neilston line, and much enhance its value, by not only connecting by means of these extensions and branches, and by the shortest practicable route, the city of .Glasgow with the mineral fields and manufacturing and seaport towns of Ayrshire, and with the extensive iron works and coal-fields of Muirkirk and Lesmahagow; but also by means of the proposed junctions of the Lesmahagow line with the Caledonian at Abington, and with the contemplated Dumfries and Carlisle at Sanquhar, forming a portion of the shortest route from Glasgow to Carlisle. The Directors also viewed, with congratulation, the proposed Glasgow Central termini line, and revised surveys were now being carried on for extensions from Barrhead to Hurlet and Paisley, with branches to our mineral districts, for which purpose further capital would have to be raised. The large premium that had been obtained on the sale of the forfeited shares, would be more than sufficient to defray the unusual opposition to which the Bill had been wantonly subjected. The report, on the motion of the LORD PROVOST, seconded by Mr. P. M. STEWART, M.P., who complimented the Direc tors on the gallant manner in which they had gained their Bill, was unanimously adopted. On the motion of Mr. JAMES GRAHAM, of Fereneze, seconded by Mr. J. J. ROBERTSON, the following Directors were confirmed in their office : Sir John Maxwell, of Polloc, Bart. ; Colonel More, of Cald well ; Patrick Maxwell Stewart, Esq., M.P. ; Christopher Saitmarshe, Esq., of Middleton Lodge, Leeds ; Alexander Graham, Esq., of Capille ; John Crum, Esq., of Thornliebank ; William Stirling, Esq., Younger, of Kier; John Bain, Esq., of Morriston ; James Graham, Esq., of Fereneze ; Alexander Camphell, Esq., of Bedley ; H. E. Crum, Esq., merchant, Glasgow; Thomas Dundas Spiers, Esq., Elderslie ; and Alex ander Alison, jun, Esq., Pitern. --- Sir J. MAXWELL, in returning thanks, said he looked on the proposed Lesmahagow line as one of the best mineral lines of the north. Messrs. Robertson and Brown were appointed auditors, and a vote of thanks, proposed by Captain Osborne, seconded by Mr. Bain, was given to Mr. Robson, the engineer. Thanks were also voted to Mr. Graham and Mr. Tennant, for their services ; and to the Earl of Glasgow, Colonel Mure, of Cald well, and the other members of the Provisional Directory. LONDON AND BIRMINGIIAN NEW LUGGAGE VANS.—The Directors of the London and Birmingham Railway are now having built a set of " luggage vans," for the express and other fast trains, so as to obviate the necessary of placing large quantities of luggage on the roof of the passenger carriages, and thus causing oscillation. These vans are divided into compartments, in the same way as the passenger carriages, and subdivided in the interior, so as to separate the luggage intended for the different stations. Vans of this construction will be placed in every train between the en gine and tender, so that the objections very justly urged against the light luggage vans now in use, of causing the very evil which they are intended to prevent, will be re moved. Some of the new vans have already been tried, and we understand that the guards speak strongly as to the greater steadiness of the trains. We believe the Grand Junction Board mean to adopt them.—Railway Record, of Wednesday. BRIDGTZ OVER THE TAY.—The Edinburgh and Northern and Dundee and Kinross have determined to unite in con structing a high level bridge across the Tay at Newburgh, of such elevation and span as will accommodate the naviga tion, and comply with the conditions of the Admiralty. At the Edinburgh county meeting of commissioners of supply and justices of the peace on Tuesday, Sir John Hope, the chairman, and Sheriff Spiers adverted to the truck sys tem prevailing on some of the lines in construciion round Edinburgh, and it was agreed to. give full power to the police to endeavour to frame proper regulations with the directors and contractors for a modification of their arrangements. The Tyne Mercury, in noticing a new and imposing project in the north, says, it is proposed to complete a double line of railway from Newcastle to the metropolis for the carriage of goods only; these goods being chiefly coals upward, and miscellaneous packages downwards. As this lino would exclude passengers, great speed is not an object. The coals would be delivered in a condition far superior to those that go by sea, and the metropolitan markets would by this means be regularly supplied at all times with superior coals, on terms that would hardly vary, and which would be lower than any that London has yet seen. 'We have been favoured with an outline of some of the calculations for this scheme. As to the cost of the railway we cannot judge. It is estimated, however, at somewhat above four millions, and it is proposed to obtain a subscribed capital of five millions to meet all contingencies. The consumption of coal in London alone is about 4,000,000 tons annually. The carriage upon three million tons of coal alone would yield a handsome pro fit, even at rates very low indeed. As far as the coal trade of Northumberland and Durham is concerned, a transit like this, if once effected, would be a great safeguard. They might thenceforward defy all competition, and enjoy a monopoly of the supply of the metropolis. DERBY AND GAINSBOROUGH RAILWAY.--We heartily congratulate our fellow-townsmen, and the Shareholders, upon the steady progress the Derby and Gainsborough Rail way is now making in public estimation. An important ac quisition this week has taken place in the accession of Lord Worsley to the direction, and we understand it is intended to make that nobleman Chairman to the undertaking. His high standing and great parliamentary influence and expe rience, fully entitle him to this distinction; especially as he is already chairman of the "Great Grimsby and Sheffield," and the " Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railways," which, with the East Lincolnshire, command very high premiums in the railway market ; the former about 20/..per share, and the two latter from 6/. to 8/. premium each. If the Shareholders of the perby and Gainsborough should succeed in amalgamating their line with those before mentioned, they would form what might be very aptly termed the "Eastern compact," which, with other projected lines west of the North Midland, would form a com plete east and western chain of communication through the centre of England, from the German Ocean to the Irish Sea, and might be very appropriately termed the " Central Mid lands." The Share Market has already felt the impulse of these favourhble circumstances and we most sincerely hope the spirited promoters of this useful and bond fide under taking will receive the full reward of their valuable and legi timate efforts in this undertaking.—Derby Me-cury. PARTIAL DESTRUCTION OF THE WHITEHAVEN AND MARY PORT RAILWAY.—This unfortunate line about the middle of last week sustained considerable damage at Mickleham point, between Lowca and Harrington, through a spring tide, assisted by a north-west wind, having washed over the embankment. Little was known except by the contractors, those _engaged on that part of the line, and the directors, at the time we went to press with our last number, in consequence of a determination on the part of the direc tors to keep it a secret. The catastrophe, however, as they must have been aware, soon got wind, when several conjec • tures were afloat as to the amount of damage incurred. The opinions speculated are that it cannot be less than from six hundred to one thousand pounds. Of the truth or falsehood of these conjectuxes_we do not fed ourselyea competent to IRISH LINES. IRISH. GREAT WESTERN (DUBLIN, PORTARLINGTON, AND GALWAY).—On Tuesday a meeting was held at Roscom mon, Mr. Arthur Browne in the .chair, when resolutions, proposed and supported by Dr. Burke, Mr. Moriarty, Mr. Oliver Corr, Rev. A. Egan, Mr. G. Digby, Mr. W. Sandys, Very Rev. J. Madden, and others, were passed, unani mously regretting the rejection of, the line by Parliament last session, deprecating the opposition to the line, thanking Mr. Fitzstepben French for his services, and pledging sup port to the line next session, as best calculated to serve the general interests of the province of Connaught, NEWRY AND ENNISKILLEN, AND NEWRY ARMAGH, AND LONDONDERRY JUNCTION.—At a meeting of the committee of the former company, Lord Newry in the chair, it was re solved to co-operate with the Newry and Armagh line, which proposes either to join the Newry and Enni s kille n line at about a mile on the Omagh side of Armagh, or at the sta. tion of the Newry Company in Armagh, so as to have a continuous line from DaTy, Strabane, and Omagh, to Newry. DuNDA.r.x AND ENNISKILDEN.—On Tuesday the first con tract from Dundalk to Castleblanev, ten miles, was let for 48,000/. to Messrs. Dargan and M'Cormick, the contractors. The works will be commenced forthwith, Lord Roden giving immediate possession of the land. CONTINENTAL LINES. Tomas AND NANTES.—The works on this line are urged on most actively, and it is thought that towards the Ist of Oct. a single way will have been laid down throughout the whole distance between Orls?ns and Tours, and that a trial trip will be made. The viaducts of Tavers and Beaugency were finished a fortnight or three weeks back, and the laying down of the rails is going on with great celerity in their neighbour hood. A letter from Tours states that it is considered certain there that the line will be opened as far as that city by the end of the year. MARSEILLES TO TOULON.—A meeting of the Provisional Board of Directors of this Company, for a railroad between these places, with an extension to llyeres, 7 and several branch lines, took place at Toulon last week, the President, Count Latour-du-Pin Chambly in the chair. The capital is to be 38,000,000 f., and the shares 500 f. each. Swiss LlNEs.—The Committee appointed by the Swiss Government for directing the lines in that country, has de cided upon the execution of the following lines, viz., Bale to Olten, Olten to Zurich, Olten to Lake de Biel, and Olten to Lucerne, being in all 44 Swiss leagues, and requiring an ex penditure of 30,000,000 f. LOCOMOTIVE MANUFACTORY AT ST. PETERSBURGIL— There exists in the capital of Russia an immense establish ment of the above description belonging to Messrs. Eastwick and Harrison of Philadelphia, who have entered into a contract with the Russian Government to furnish all the machinery necessary for the construction and working of the vast lines projected in the whole empire. They employ at St. Petersburgh not fewer than 3,000 workmen. To keep in good order this congregation of men, compoied of Americans, Germans, Englishmen, and Russians, a company of soldiers is always stationed at the manufactory, and a special body of police is appointed to attend there. Men of turbulent con duct, if foreigners, are dismissed at once on any grave contra vention of the regulations, and if Russians, they are tied up to a triangle and whipped with the knout. MM. Eastwick and Harrison have several times protested against this mode of punishment, but unavailingly. NEW COMPANIES.—The following is a summary of the new companies, 35 in number, proposing to enter the field next session, as competitors for ministerial concession. PARLS AND STRASBURGIL—No fewer than eight com panies have started for this line ; namely—Ganneron, capital, 125 millions of francs Be:l'Est, 125 milli o n s ; Becket, 125 millions ; Gentil and Fol, 125 millions ; Caumont Laforce, 125 millions ; Doudeauville, 125 millions ; Flury Herard, 130 millions. Tours AND ANTES.-Six companies ; namely—Mac kenzie and Co., 60 million francs : Carette and Mi ngue t, 35 millions • Drouillard, 35 millions ; Raiguecourt, 34 millions ; O'Neil and Co., 60 millions ; Jacques Lefevre, 35 millions. 1- CRETE, AND SAINT QUENTIN.—Five companies, namely— Cysaeus, 35 millions ; Cayette and-Minguet, 30 millions ; Colbert, 35 millions ; Arnoux, 35 millions ; Flury Herard, 49 millions. PARIS AND LYONS.—Eleven conpanies, namely—Lafitte, Blount, and Co., 200 millions ; De l'Union, 200 millions ;Fan neron, 200 millions; Calon the Younger, Lapinsonniere, Du Sud Est, Messageries Royales, Pecan, Chastellux, Ossian Verdeau, and Independante, each with a capital of 200 millions. LYONS AND AVIGNON.-Eight companies, namely—Le cointo des Arts, 110 millions ; Talabot, 110 millions ; Meri dionale, 80 millions ; Chastellux, 110 millions; Griolet, 110 millions ; Odiot, 4,400,0001., and amongst the English Di rectors connected with which are Mr. Hudson, M.P. ; Sir John Easthope, M.P. ; and Mr. J. L. Ricardo. " The no minal capital of these companies," says the Chemins de Fer, " collectively amounts to between four and five milliards of francs, whereas the amount required for the execution of the lines is only five hundred millions. Supposing all the sub scription lists to be filled up, and a deposit of one-tenth made immediately by the subscribers, there will be taken from cir culation for two or three months or more nearly 500 millions, instead of 50 millions, supposing that only one company existed for each of the intended lines. This large drain of capital must have considerable effect upon the money market. Several more new companies for lines which will not be ad judicated during the present year are talked of." THE LAND RAIL.—(From a Hampshire Corre spondent.)—This very delicious eating bird has been some what plentiful among us this year, and a few brace were killed on the 25th of last month. They were one lump of fat, and came to the table in prime order. They eat like no other game bird, for they partake of a mild richness which singularly characterises their species. I do not remember ever to have seen one of these birds among the extensive and varied collection of the London poulterers, nor is it by any means a common bird in this country. It is in this neighbourhood (Milford) called the corn crake, and it mi grates, as soon as the October frosts sets in, to Spain, where it enjoys more lenient winters than our island affords, whereas, the water rail, its congener, stays with us all the year round and may be met with in most of the marshy districts. On Wednesday next we shall " soar for nobler game," and aban don the open fields for the heavy covers. Pheasants are plentiful in our neighbourhood.—Post. JACK SHEPPARD —A short time since was ob served in a broker's shop, in Wilderness-row, Clerkenwell, two ancient portraits, evidently after the style of that cele brated artist Sir John Thornhill, who painted the Court of George the Second. A person afterwards purchased the pair for a mere trifle, and took them home with him. It has since been discovered, beyond all doubt, that they are original likenesses of Jack Sheppard and his mother. They were for more than a century hanging up in an old public-house called the Bell, at Willesden, and were taken off from time to time by successive landlords, as a part of the stock of the pre mises. There is a strong family likeness between the parent and the son, and the contour of the countenance of the latter teems with character of a nature which coincides perfectly with the life and history of the 'ubject. The painting must have been executed about the period that Jack Sheppard broke out of the round-house at Willesden. [ADVEItTISEMENT.J—AN AUTHENTICATED CURE OF A FEARFUL CASE OF PILES, BT HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OINTMENT I —John Thompson.

Sir,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring ender a nervous deafness, so much so at times as to be almost incapable of hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom I de rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend, to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your 4s. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found my hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since. I should mention that the time I commenced taking your Eye Snuff was in April last, and have continued taking it since.—l am, Sir, your obe dient servant, W. H. ADAMS. To Mr. W. Gemstone Any quantity of Eye Snuff can be forwarded through the General Post, by sending money orders.
