RAILWAY AND 0211 ER COMPANIES. GREAT EASTERN. Mr. R. Moseley is about to retire from the post of general manager of this undertaking, and will be succeeded by Mr. S. Swarbrick, who has for some time past been acting as one of the receivers of Chancery, in conjunction with Mr. J. B. Owen, the secretary. Mr. Moseley has been connected with the company (and the original Eastern Coun ties) for 24 years, and at the ensuing general meet ing of the proprietors it is stated that the directors will recommend that an annuity of £5OO should be granted to him. A new station has just been opened at Harold wood, 15 miles from London, on the high road between Romford and Brentwood, to accommodate the Harold-wood estate, which has been purchased and divided by an association for first-class villa re sidences in the immediate vicinity. A large num ber of the Essex gentry assembled at the Albion Tavern on Thursday to celebrate the event. GREAT EASTERN STEAMSHIP (LIMITED). The report of the directors states that at the last ordinary meeting of the company they reported the terms of an arrangement which had been made for the employment of the Great Eastern during 1867 in passenger service between France and the United States. The charterer was bound to provide new screw boilers, and generally to outfit the ship for passenger service at his own cost—the Telegraph c Construction Company contributing £20,000 towards the expense of reinstatement. The charterer was further bound to pay the working expenses and insurance, in addition tofreight at the rateof £l,OOO per month. A French con3PanY7 with a capital of £lOO,OOO, was subsequently formed to acquire the charterer's interest in the charter. The refitment of the ship was proceeded with, and so far completed as to enable her to sail from Liverpool for New York on the 26th of March last. Owing, however, as the directors are informed, to the cost of rein statement far exceeding the calculations made, and the:insufficiency of its capital, the French company found themselves in financial difficulty, and aban doned the enterprise on the termination of the first voyage. The charterers duly paid the first two monthly instalments of the hire of the ship, but failed in their engagements to pay the wages, in surance, and other disbursements of voyage. The directors had no alternative but to pay such of the amounts as the ship was legally liable for, and the payments so made, together with £lO,OOO of freight still due, and harbour wages, amount of £21,461, for which this company will claim on the estate of the charterers. The directors regret to report that suits have been instituted in the Court of Admiralty, and that the ship has been arrested by some of the crew (who refused to accept the settlement offered by this company), by Messrs. George Forrester and Co., and by others employed by the charterers in fitting the ship for their service. With regard to the wages claim, the directors have paid £1,500 into court, believing that sum sufficient to cover the legal liability of the ship, but with respect to the other claims the directors have declined to enter tain them at all, and, acting under legal advice, will resist them to the utmost. For obvious reasons, the directors refrain from entering more fully into the subject of these claims, but they add that they are advised by the highest legal authority that the ship is not liable, and they have the greatest confi dence in being able to resist them successfully The question of the future employment of the ship' has given the directors much anxious consideration, and they regret that they are not able to report any satisfactory arrangement. They trust, however, that with the general revival of trade, profitable employment may be obtained either in the passen ger trade or in the submersion of telegraph cables, for either of which services the superiority of the Great Eastern over any other vessel afloat cannot be questioned. CALEDONIAN, The directors of this company state, in a circular to the proprietors, that a strong desire having been expressed or. the part of many influential share holders that the principle on whieh the company's accounts are in future to be made up should now be settled, and the accounts which have formed the subject of so much discussion finally disposed of, in stead of leaving these matters to be discussed and settled by the new Board, the directors think it de sirable that the shareholders themselves should have an opportunity of expressing their views upon the subject. The directors therefore suggest, as the most expedient course, at the special general meeting of the company, to be held on the 13th inst., in Glas gow, that the following recommendations of the Board be adopted : "1. That effect be given to the recommenda tions of the Committee of Inquiry, ' that to the extent of the deficiency applicable to the period prior to the 31st of July, 1 865, the amount be charged to tapital. " 2. That trout the Premium fund there should be deducted all additional balances otttstanding at the 31st of July, 1867 (including the estimated de: preciation of Port PittrhilE eteattiboats), amounting in all to £57,222 9s. 3d., leaving the balance of £36,919 lls. 9d., which will still remain at the credit of premium fund, to be applied in terms of the ori ginal arrangement with the shareholders. " 3. That the accounts of the two years from the 31st of July, 1865, to the 31st of July, 1867, be not further disturbed. " 4. That the course recommended by Mr. Hawk shaw and concurred in by the Committee of Inquiry be adopted from and after the Ist of February, when the currpnt half year commenced ; and that accordingly no charge be placed to the capital ac count for renewals or reconstruction, increase to rolling stock, stations ! or sidings, sayp such as shall " 6. If the questions in regard to the accounts for bygone half years be disposed of, the reconstructed Board will be able to give their undivided attention to the further development of the traffic, its econo mical working, and to the carrying out of the im portant agreement which has been entered into with the North British Railway Company. " 7. Your directors have further to state that the names appearing in the report of the committee as the gentlemen who are to form the Board as recon stituted have not been selected by the existing Cale donian Board, who had previously come to an un derstanding to the effect that the six gentlemen who should retire from the direction should be determined by ballot among themselves, which course the directors still consider to be the most expedient. "8. The Board, as presently constituted, consists of two members from England, six from Glasgow and neighbourhood, one si st f ob ro m otnh Edinburgh, di in nemb committee u b r e g r h f , r o ot n me e bE f e r n o rge m : Dundee, and four from other parts of th e coun t r y. asy f proposed con The con rd st ß it o u a ted, will Eng land, nine from Glasgow and neighbourhood, two from Edinburgh and neighbourhood, one from Dundee, and one from the remainder of the Cale donian system. "9. Your directors are of opinion that the inte rests of the shareholders generally might have been better represented had the selection been made more general, and had it embraced shareholders resident in other parts of this company's extended under taking, together with a fair representation of the large section of shareholders resident in England. " 10. In order that shareholders who may find it inconvenient to be present at the meeting on the 13th inst. may have an opportunity of expressing their opinion on the important questions now under consideration, the directors have resolved to issue proxies, which will be used in support of the views hereinbefore expressed, unless shareholders, in re turning them, give instructions to the contrary." SIR DAVID BREWS7ER. We have to record the decease of Sir David Brewster, one of the oldest of our scientific philo sophers, who, born in the last century, has contri buted largely to the record of the physical dis coveries of the past sixty years—a man who, de voting himself from early life to investigations in the regions of experimental science, had earned the respect of his country, from which he obtained well merited honour, as well as the recognition of scien tific bodies all over Europe and beyond the Atlantic. He died last evening at his seat, Allerley House, near Melrose. Sir David Brewster, D.C.L., LL.D., Knight of the Guelphic Order of the United King dom, was born at Jedburgh, in Roxburghire, on Dec. 11, 1781. His father was rector of the grammar school in that town, and, being devoted himself to the Scottish Church, determined upon bringing his four sons up to be ministers of that establish ment. Three of them entered the Church and obtained livings. Dr. Brewster of Craig, and Dr. Brewster of Scoonie, who were remarkable for their piety and their superior intelligence, have not been long deceased ; Patrick, who ably filled the post of minister of the Abbey Church of Paisley, died in 1859. Sir David was his father's second son, and completed his studies, duly ob taining his license to preach ; but the state of his health was urged by himself as a reason for giving up the Church, and refusing a living which was offered him by the Duke of Roxburghe. It seems, however, probable that his inclinations towards scientific inquiry, which he bad commenced by ex periments as early as 1799, had a considerable share in influencing his decision. His earliest investiga tions were on the inflection of light, and his success at the commencement was a stimulus to further effort, and led to his continued investigations in this domain. of physics, which he afterwards so largely enriched. In 1806 he published am edition of " Ferguson's Lectures" with notes, and in the same year projected andcommenced the "Edinburgh En cycloradia," which was completed in 1830 under his editorship. In 1807 the University of Aber. deen conferred on him the honorary degree of LL.D., which was followed later by an A.M. from Cambridge, and the D.C.L. of Oxford. In 1808 he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. At this time he was engaged in the study of optics, and in 1811, w h e n wr iting for the " Edinburgh Encyclopedia," he was led, by a suggestion of Buffon's, to build a lens of zones of glass in such a manner as to collect the rays of light and refract them into parallel beams. This plan has since been largely employed for light-houses. In 1813 he published his " Trea tise on New Philosophical Instruments," and con tinued from time to time to issue memoirs and papers upon optical subjects and questions con nected with the constitution and properties of light. In 1815 he had the honour of receiving from the hands of Sir Joseph Banks, president of the Royal Society, the Copley medal for his discovery of the law of the polarisation of light by reflection. Not long after he was elected a member of that learned body. In 1816 the French Institute awarded him half of the 3,0001 r. prize for the most important scientific discovery of the past two years. In 1819 Sir David Brewster, in connection with Professor Jameson, started the Edinburgh Philosophical Journal, which was continued till 1824, and from that year was carried on by himself alone under the title of the Edinburgh Journal of Science. In 1819 the Royal Society awarded him the Rumford and the royal gold and silver medals for further dis coveries in polarisation of light. The Royal Society of Edinburgh also twice awarded him the Keith prize, for the discovery of two new fluids in mine rals, and for his analysis of solar light. It was in 1816 that he invented the kaleidoscope, for which he took out a patent, but this proved a very unprofit able investment, as it was impossible to sustain his claim against copyists. In 1825 the Institute of France elected him a corresponding member, and similar distinctions were sent him by the Royal Academies of Russia, Prussia, Austria, Sweden, Denmark, Italy, and Belgium. American scientific bodies also sought the honour of enrolling him among their foreign associates. In 1831 ap peared his " Life of Sir Isaac Newton," and in the same year he largely assisted in realising, if he did not originally suggest, the formation of the Bri tish Association at York. In this year he received the Guelphic Order, and in 1832 was knighted by his Majesty King William IV. In 1835 a " Life of Flamsteed" Was published, and in this work appeared serious aspersioflB against Sir Isaac Newton. Brewster made every effort 4 .. 4 _ 1 again evidence to confute these statements, and iu pub lish an enlarged edition of the Life of Newton. In 1837 the lion. Newton Fellowes gave him permis sion to examine a large mass of papers which had belonged to and concerned Newton, and which were at Hurstboutne Park. lle went down and stayed ft week there, being ably assisted by Mr. It. A. Fellowes, who copied out for him many of the papers. Some time after, Lord Portsmouth, at the recideAt bf bord Brougham, sent all the papers to Sir David, they having been admirably arranged by Mr. 11. A Fellowes. At length, after much trouble, the letters of Flamsteed were obtained and Newton was successfully cleared of the aspersions which had been cast up on him. The enlarged edi tion of Newton's life appared in 1855. So recently as the last year Sir David had bteheen shade en of f al t le h d e upon as a veteran to combat departed philosopher, and eventshave p th ro e ve e d ur t i h ous at his judgment was correct concerning forgeries of the correspondence between N e wton and Pascal. In 1 8 32 app eared his work on Natu ral Magic," and in that year, on the decease of Sir John Leslie, Brewster was appointed Professor of Natural Philosophy in the University Qfl Edw. burgh ; and the testimonials which, as a matter of form, he sent in as a candidate, form a remarkable collection. Among the names of those who rent him such letters are those of Sir John F. W. Herschel, Dr. Briockley, Bishop of Cloyne ; Dr. Lloyd, Provost of Trinity College, Dublin ; Dr. Whewell, G. B. Airy, Sir W. R. Hamilton, Lord Brougham, Lord Napier (President of the Astrono mical Society), Sir G.Mackenzie, Jeffrey, John Dal ton (Manchester), the Duke of Gordon, the Marquis of Tweeddale, Sir T. Brisbane (President of the Edinburgh Royal Society), Sir James South, and many others of note. In 1838 the Crown appointed him Principal of the United Colleges of St. Salvator and St. Leonard, St. Andrews. Jn the year 1849, on the decease of the great Bet zelius, the Imperial In stitute of France elected Sir David to fill the vacant place in the list of their foreign associates. The late King of Prussia also sent him the Order of Merit founded by Frederick the Great, and in 1855 Napo leon 111. appointed him an officer of the Legion of Honour. In 1859 he was unanimously elected Princi pal of the University of Edinburgh, and after having been secretary of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and vice-president for many years, he was elected its president in 1864. Sir David Brewster leaves behind him a monument in his published writinPA, which would fill a small library. His "CAest"' published in the " Cabinet Cy.clopxdia, 4 is 4d:4(1- mirable popularised treatise on a diffieUlt subject. His " Natural Magic" was a companion volume to Sir W. Scott's " Demonology and Witchcraft," and despite Sir David's skill, by . no means explains the legends recounted in Sir WUlter's book. It is to be regretted that Sir David, when he gad the oppor nity, should have refused to investigate phenomena the first sight of which greatly astonished him, and concerning which he unfortunately was led to make contradictory statements. Besides his direct con tributions to scientific knowledge, the biography of Sir Isaac Newton and the " Martyrs of Science" may be set down as in the domain of history. In 1854 he wrote, in reply to Whewell's odd specula tion, entitled " The Plurality of Worlds," a short treatise under the name, "More Worlds than One, the Creed of the Philosopher and the Hope of the Christian," the latter phrase touching on an issue which the philosopher of Cambridge had in no way raised. Be his faults, however, what they may, he has left behind him a name which England, and especially Scotland, who boasts him as her proper son, will delight to honour. THE HOUSE OF COMSIONS.—Two new members will have to take their seats in the House of Commons on its reassembling this week—viz., Mr. Lowther, returned for Westmoreland, in the room of the Hon. Col. Lowther, deceased; and Mr. W. H. Maxwell, returned for Kirkcud brightshire, in the room of Mr. J. Mackie, deceased. The total number of new members returned to the House since the dissolution in July, 1865, has thus been increased to 62. The names of these new members are :—Lord J. Hay, Mr. J. Candlish, Mr. R. Arkwright, Vie Hon. G. Denman, Mr. M. Wyvill, Mr. H. Herbert, Mr. H. Whit more (who obtained his seat on petition), Sir E. Lechmere, Mr. N. Eckorsley, Mr. J. Goldsmid, Mr. J. E. Gorst, Mr. C.

Several elections are now pending—viz., Argyllshire, by the retirement of Mr. A. S. Finlay; Cambridge University, by the elevation of Sir C. J. Selwyn to the judicial bench ; Holston, by the appointment of Mr. IV. B. Brett as Solicitor-General ; and Bristol, by the anticipated resignation of Sir M. Peto. PICKING HOLES IN COATES.—Belgra via, which really scarcely does justice to the quarter whence it takes its name, has opened its chaste columns to a most mali cious attack on the character of poor Romeo Coates. The most disgraceful imputations were freely made by the ignorant and reckless writer on Mr. Robert Coates' private character. These have been most perfectly refuted by those who were intimate friends of the late gentleman. This nuisance is a growing one; certain scribblers, whose utter ignorance of their subject is only exceeded by their presumption, haunt, like literary ghosts, the graves of dead men, more or less celebrated in their lifetime, and dig up the corpse for the purpose of defacing it. We are not sur - prised at Belgravia finding a place in its columns for one of these pieces of calumnious twaddle. We shall be sur prised if they find a place for an apology. Why not, out of compliment to the author of " Circe," change the name of this notorious magazine to Whitechapell —The Toma hawk. 1V RECK AND Loss of LIU. —The schooner Jane, of Portrush. struck on Cans Rock. near the Skerries, yesteraav, evening, and sank in deep water. Four of her crew were drowned. --- - MUNIFICEN.X.—The Bolton Guardian says that Mr. Seddon, of Westhoughton, has signified his intention to erect. at an expense of £5,000, a 'new church in the place of the present old chapel of case of St. Bartholomew. in that township. CounT MARTIAL ON A SUSPECTED FFNIAN. —The court-martial re-assembled in Dublin on Saturday for the trial of James Rourke, private 86th regiment, on a charge of going in the procession on the Bth December last. Witnesses were examined in support of the charge. The prisoner in his defence denied any con nection with Fenianism, and his mother and sister were examined, and deposed that the prisoner was in the house- of the former in Winetavern-street.at the time the procession passed. The Deputy Judge Advocate having summed up, the court adjourned. SCENE AT A FIRE. —A disastrous fire, and one that almost terminated fatally to more. than one inmate, occurred this morning on the premises of Mr. Sward, tobacconist, 16, Oxford-street. The proprietor and his wife were absent from home The tire broke out in the basement, and speedily shot through the upper part of the premises, rendering the escape of those in the house, comprising the servant-maid and three or four children, almost impossible An immense crowd collected on the alarm being raised, and the firemen being soon on the spot, praise worthy efforts were made to rescue the persons named. The cheering of the crowd was most enthusiastic, as the children were one by one rescued from the back and front windows of the dwelling. The servant was saved by one of the firemen literally dragging her from the burning building by the hair of her head. The cause of the fire is unknown. The premises were insured in the Imperial Fire Office. FORGING SCOTTISH BATIK NOTES. —On Saturday, at the Birmingham Police-court, two men, described as Charles King, retired licensed victualler, and William Breckenridge, agent, both livingl for ti t tr e min u g r : ham, were charged with obtaining pose of forging bank notel vi o r. h ln e g ß p rit a is te h s L o i r nen gra- Mottemm, in applying pany—a Scotch bank. the exertions of the police, for a remand, said that, by uld be conceived had been as infamous a fraud as detected.

Pe! V"" • - The Cork correspondent of the Daily ,f 8 thus writes, on Monday :—" The four prisoners captured in Market street last night, with three others arrested subsequently by a police patrol, were brought up for examination before the magistrates at the police-office this morning. Public interest, of course, centred in W. Mackay, the alleged leader of the party, who was the first put forward, and against whom a charge of high treason had been entered. His appearance greatly disappointed the legitimate expectations of a public anxious for sensational incidents. It was with much surprise the pub• lic saw a slight and delicate-looking stripling, wearing a languid and half-contemptuous expression in his countenance, put forward and charged as the redoubtable Fenian leader. Mackay has litt7e in his aspect to denote the astonishing energy and daring with which he is credited. His lithe figure suggests the idea of supple. ness rather than strength or endurance. His complexion is pallid and unhealthy, and the air of languor which seems habitual with him appears to correspond with physical weakness. The attitude he assumed in the dock and his general manner were slightly theatrical, and he was evidently desirous of acting the part of the political prisoner with becoming contemptuousness for the law and indifference to its dangers. But for the rapid, piercing glances of his eyes, Mackay would not strike the observer as a person of acute intelligence ; but they reveal some of the energy and vigour veiled under the blase, indifferent air which he assumes. His face and dress bore some traces of the struggle of the previous evening. The prisoners put forward with Mackay were, with two exceptions, of the labouring class and were middle-aged men, whose mature and muscular features contrasted strangely with the slight boyish form of their leader ; while their coarse determined features offered a not less striking opposition to his pale and refined countenance. When his name was called Mackay did not answer, as if he did not recognise it as his, and when asked to state what his nine was if it were not Mackay, he at first declined to give any informat — ion on the subject, but afterwards said that he had given the name Patrick Murphy the pre vious evening, and that if the prosecution were not satis fied with that, it was their business to shew who he was. Head-constable Geale was then examined, and stated that the prisoner was the William Mackay who had previously been in custody in this country under a warrant from the Lord-Lieutenant. Geale then detailed the circumstances attending the prisoner's capture, stating that there were at the time a large number of persons in the house who tried to rescue the prisoner from his custody. Upon Geale's evidence Mackay was remanded for eight days. Subsequently he was identified as the leader in the raid on the martello tower, in the robbery at Allport's, and as the person who was in command of the insurgents at Bally knockane in lass, March." The Earl of Derby, who is recovering from his attack of gout, is still so weak that he will, it is thought, be unable to come to town for the meeting of Parliament. A lady correspondent of the Drogheda Argus writes that last week while taking a walk in the demesne of Lord Massareene, she came upon a party of men drilling. One of the men came up to her, asked her name, and where she was from. On being told, he said in a stern voice, " Madam, I will permit you to go on your business if you solemnly promise not to announce what you saw here until three days are over." She gave the promise, and the three days having elapsed, she now com municates what she saw to the press. ANOTHER HORSE-FLESH BANQUET.—Between thirty and forty of the principal tradesmen of Ramsgate have been invited by Mr. Bicknell, a resident of that popular watering-place, to a banquet at the Falstaff Hotel, for the purpose of testing the qualities of horse-flesh as an article for human food. The bill of fare included the fol lowing :—Soup, "Flying-horse." Side dishes—Race horse patties, Shetland pony, with salad dressed with horse oil. Joints—Roast fillet of horse, " Royal Charger" stew, &c. The horse-flesh was sent from Paris for the purpose, and was prepared by a French cook. The flesh was dressed and cooked in various ways, and the company are said to have been unanimous in expressing their approval of the flavour of alLthat was set before them. THE REPAIR OF PARISH CHURCHES.—Mr. Cole ridge, Q.C., M.P., having had a case submitted to him by the Town Council of Bodmin, has given an opinion that the repair of Bodmin Church is not an object to which the surplus funds of the borough can be applied within the meaning of the words of the Act , " for the public benefit of the inhabitants and the improvement of the borough." Mr. Coleridge adds : "No doubt the repair of a parish church may be, in one sense, very much for both; but not, I think, in the sense of the Act, which is con cerned with secular and not spiritual objects. I think no court would be inclined to hold that municipal corpora tions were intended by 5 and 6 William IV., c. 76, to have the power of applying their surplus funds to such an object ; apart from the fact, that to do what is suggested would be taking the funds of a borough to do what of common right is the duty of a parish. lam not prepared o say, as a proposition of law, however, that a corpora. tion may not be liable (contrary as such a liability would be to the ordinary law and custom of the realm), by chatter, by prescription, or, possibly, in virtue of some endowment, to repair a parish church." FRIGHTFUL DEATH OF A SOMNAMEULIST.—Mr. Humphreys, Middlesex coroner, has held an inquiry at the Sutton Arms, Carthusian-street, Charterhouse-square, respecting the death of Mr. John Howard Mann, aged 27. The deceased was the son of Dr. Mann, and resided with him at No. 4, Charterhouse-square. He was town tra veller to Messrs. Walters and Son, silk manufacturers, of Newgate-street, and on the 15th January he went to the stock-taking supper given by the head of the firm at his residence in Highgate. He returned at one o'clock in the morning, and it being the rule at his father's house that no one should come in after twelve o'clock, a bed was made up for him in Mr. Walters's room in Newgate-street. It appears that on two occasions he had got up, asleep, at his father's house and walked about until awakened by coming into contact with the furniture. An hour after he went to bed in Newgate-street he arose, opened the window, and stepped out in a somnambulie state on to the leads. In going along he stepped on a skylight and fell through with a t,rrific crash down to the ground floor. The porter, Laughlin, was arotis.Al by the nuke of the fall, and found the unfortunate somnambulist insensible under the broken skyli ht, and terribly injured. He was con veyed to St. Bait' oloinew's Hospital, and ultimately to No. 4, Ch: r '.ei 1 or - al.square, where he died. Mr. Coleman, house-surgeon to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, said that deceased's was apparently fractured at the base, his collar I o c was broken, and his ribs were injured. He stated the day after the occurrence that he could form no opinion of how the affair happened to him. The jury returned a verdict, " That the deceased died from the effects of falling through a skylight while walking in his sleep." ATTEMPT OF A WIFE TO MURDER HER HUSBAND. —On Monday afternoon a man rushed from Oldham gardens, a small locality adjoining the House of Correc tion, Coldbath-fields, bleeding copiously from the thrt'at, and claimed protection from his wife, who, he said, had cut his throat. lie was at once seen to by the neighbours, and Dr. Brown, o f No. 1, Wilmington square, attended upon him promptly, and recommended his instant removal to an hospital. This was done. The sufferer was conveyed to the Royal Free Hospital. It was then found that the patient was suffering from a severe wound across the throat, about three inches and a l'alf in length, deep, and the windpipe had been entirely s 3vered, and several large veins cut through. This occurred shortly after four o'clock, and as some ugly reports had spread about that a dreadful murder had been committed, P.C. John Back, 96 T, proceeded to the spot, and took a woman named Sarah Britten into custody on a charge of cutting her husband's throat with intent to kill him. When brought to the police-station, she denied altogether h av i n g even attempted to injure her husband in any way, but onmoannscia ina h ne w d o i a u t l e d l y e i t c h u e t r h c i n s t own h i s s a t i h d r o t a h t a t o h r e c i u n t a h p e passion said. he would either cut his throat or cut her s e s and rushed from the house. She accounted for some blood on her apron and arms by saying that when he had cut his throathe ran about the room, and the blood was spurted over her. A young woman who lived next door to the parties said the husband ran out of the house covered with blood, but she did not hear any quarrelling in their house previously. The injured man is a leather pocket-book maker, named George Britten, aged 57 ; his wife's age is about 51. From the accounts given by the police, it would appear that both of them had been out drinking together during the day. A knife was found which much resembles a shoemaker's, and with which it is thought the crime -'s perpetrated, whether by one or the other, -narks of blood are on it. The wife but nn 2o knife has been found, evidently n ot rather boasts that ' knowing of this one being the possession of the police. The woman, oft being confrOnt:ttd with her husband in the hospital, shewed great nerve ; she had previously said that he never could accuse her before her face of cut e ting his throat, but wh en be was asked id Icut you the question h said " Yes." The w You did `wife then said "D) throat?" and the husband said " .' Tlac wife : " Oh, y ou wretched man, how can you say that ?" The husband : " I wish that I could say that yot did not ; but you did cut my throat." The wife : "Oh may God forgive you !" The husband : " I would try t( screen you if I could, but you did do it." Mr.Jeffresor. then ordered the woman to be removed, in order that the patient should not be further excited, and Mrs. Britten was taken to the Clerkenwell station. The man Britten ig going on well, and great hopes are entertained of 14' recovery. 1 ,~ i I A, MISS KAVANAGH'S NEW NOVEL. . Now ready, at all the Libraries, in 3 vols., D 0 R A.
