Letters from Liverpool mention that the Cotton Market yesterday closed steadily, and prices were id. higher on all deFcriptionss. The sale; were estimated at 12,000 bales, 6,500 of which were taken on speculation, and 1,000 for export. The Railway Share Market manife-ted a firm ap pearance, and prices slightly advanced. There has been a meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Ashmore and Sons, general merchants, who suspended payment on the 7th ult. Mr. vhatteris, the accountant, submitted the balance skeet, when it appeared that the insacured debts amounted to only 10,3251., and that sufficient as sets will be realised to pay 10s. in the pound. The immediate cause of the failure was stated to have arisen from losses sustained through an alteration ini the tariff on goods shipped to the United States. It Was eventually agreed to wind up the estate u nder assignment, and Messrs. Crokat and Chattel is Were appointed trustees. It is announced that the dividend on the shares ° J. the Glasgow and South Western Counties will be at the rate of 5 per cent. against 4 per cent. last year. The official returns relative to trade and naviga tit3,ll.l for the seven months ended the 31st July, 0 7, have been published. The total declared value of the exports from the United Kingdom was 73)027,9131. against 63,936,6421. in the correspond ing Period of the previous year, showing an increase of 9 , 0 31,2711. The increase is perceptible in coals toneuhrt, beer and ale, cotton manufactures, cot yarn, earthenware, fish, haberdashery and millinery, hardwares and cutlery, linen yarn, Machinery, silk manufactures, British spirits, sheep a nd lambs' wool, woollen manufacture.;, and Woollen and worsted yarn. The Imports of the principal articles were larger as regards live animals, cocoa, barley and oats, dyeing stuffs, flax, fruit, potatoes, raw silk, tallow, timber, tobacco, wine, and sheep's and lambs' wool. There was a diminution in bristles, Indian corn, flour, raw cotton, guano, hops, rice, thrown silk, spices, rum, and tea. The Shipping Accounts exhibit an increase in the amount of tonnage employed in the foreign trade, entries inwards, as will be seen from the following table, and also for the clearances outwards : Vessels.lBs7.Tm". 185 G.

DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING. ENCUMBERED ESTATES COURT. The estates of Mr. Vincent Scully, whose unfor tunate connexion with the Tipperary Bank has in volved him in a sea of litigation, aye to be sold in the Encumbered Estates Court in November next. The property lies in the counties of Tipperary and Cork, and comprises in the gross 3,166 acres, yield ing a rent of 2,1001. a-year. Mr. Scully's position as regards his relations with the broken bank is one of peculiar hardship, and fully entitles the late member for Cork to the sympathy which his case has excited among all classes of his fellow-citizens. SPOLLEN. • A provincial journal (the Newry Telegraph), refer ring to the re-arrest of the notorious James Spollen, makes the following judicious remarks : " The detectives may be able to mead their hand, but let the Exemtive be wary. While the plea of autrefois acquit would not bar Spollen's trial on an indictment for another crime than murder, in the face of the verdict of Not guilty' a jury would ba slow to arrive at the con clusion involving a censure on the previous finding. It must be owned that, however powerfully moral influences told against the prisoner, public opinion rims with the view of the papers, that the jury co,ild not have brought in a verdict of guilty upon the evidence produced. Without supplemental proof, therefore tending not only to supply wanting links in the chain of evidence, but to impar strength whero weakness had been developed, it were a fatal blunder for the Crown to adopt the somewhat un usual course now seemingly in contemplation. Failure, the more likely in conseqnence of the abortiveness of the former prosecution, would bring lasting reproach on our criminal judicature. COMMITTAL OF SPOLLEN POR THE ROBBERY AT THE BROADSTONES. DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING. The submarine telegraph has doubtless informed you of the committal of Spollen for the robbery at the Broadstone Terminus on the night of the mur der of Mr. George• Little. The prevailing opinion is that if this man had quietly betaken himself from public and police observation the authorities would have taken no further proceedings against him, but he bad the effrontery to ou'rige public decency by bis exhibition at Prince Patrick's Theatre. Had he been detained in custody on the day of his ac quittal of the charge of murder, and a new trial for the robbery been cenamenced, Spollen would have found sympathisers in the general crowd, who would have regarded him as a police victim, but his exhibition at Fishamble-street elicited but one sentiment amongst all ranks—unmitigated disgust. The Crown is thus coerced to take the course it has adopted. The proceedings in Capel-street Police office yesterday were not without public interest. Mr. Porter presided. James Spollea was brought forward, charged with having " feloniously stolen, in the dwelling house of the Midland Great Western Railway Com pany of Ireland, money, in all over the value of 51., the property of said company, contrary to the statute in such cases made and provided, against the peace of our Lady the Queen." Mr. Corballis, Q.C., Mr. Fitzgibbon, Q.C., with Mr. Kernmis, Crown Solicitor, appeared on the part of the Crown ; and the prisoner was undefended. Mr. Corballis said he‘ should state why he ap pearel, accompanied by his friend Mr. Fitzgibbon, in this case. The charge against James Spollen, whose name was unfortunately but too familiar with the public, was one of robbery, or, to speak more technically, a charge of stealing in the dwell ing-house to the value of 51. and more. They proposed to examine witnesses to prove that fact, and to ask the magistrate to commit him on that charge. It would be unnecessary to occupy time in going into further details then— Mr. Porter—There were certain informations returned in reference to another offence, and it would appear to me that upon these informations there might have been an indictment for this offence sent before the grand jury. Mr. Corballis—No doubt of it, sir. I recollect when I was here before you on thet occasion, Mr. O'Donnell, I think, said what was to be done was in reference to the other charge contained on the charge-sheet ; and for my Own part I felt that there was evidence of a very strong character against the prisoner for the more serious offence, and I thought it would therefore be frittering away time to take any steps with regard to this. Mr. Porter—These informatious are in the hands of the Clerk of the Crown, and will be available if this man is sent for trial on this charge of feloni es-este entering the office of the late G. S. Little, and stealing therefrom tue sum of 3001. Mr. Corballis—But the prisoner is not amenable to justice yet. Mr. Porter—And all you want is to have him made amenable by me. Mr. Corballis—Nothing more. If you think yourself warranted in granting the committal at at once on this second charge, on the informations already before you, we shall be quite satisfied, and it would certainly be the pleasantest course. Mr. Porter—l will let you take your own course, I only make the suggestion. Mr. Fitzgibbon—All we have to do is to satisfy your mind that this case ought to be sent for trial— before a grand jury first, and next before a petty jury ; and it appears to me that the informations already on record in this case, and which were all taken in the presence of the prisoner and his coun sel, who had the opportunity of cross-examining, and did cross-examine the witnesses, are sufficieut to justify you in holding him in custody. Mr. Porter—Do you propose to give any addi tional evidence ? Mr. Fitzgibbon—l think not. Mr. Porter—l think there can be no doubt that the Attorney-General, if he chose, could have sent upiair.bodlorobfaiiini:aientd Mr. r ment for .t; what I may call the minor offence. Fitzgibbon -- The re is not the least doubt about it. Mr. Fitzgibbon--I think it would be well to bring evidence before you that a sum of between 3001. and 4001., the mo ne y o f the company, was on the night of ie 13th November unquestionably feloniously abstracted from the office, and that some of the money identified beyond possibility of doubt was subsequently found in the neighbourhood of the cottage occupied by the prisoner. wouldcage beidl ir e affectation tiv,t Mr.there r has s—lnot not been made in re ference to this minor o ff ence on which the Crown a b d con to say y tati are entitled, if they choose, to send up an indict ment. Mr. J. Chamberlain examined I was Mr. Little's assistant. On Thursday evening, the 18th No veml -, er last, I left the office about 5 o'clock, and Mr. Little remained aft e r me, as he always did. I never after saw him alive. I saw the prisoner painting the railings in the office on one occasion, and on another evening he came and left his tools there. Mr. Little sent for him on several occa sion 3. (The witness then identified the documents found with the stolen money as having been ab strac'ed from the cashier's office.) Mr. Thomas Bennett stated that the amount which came into Mr. Little's bands on the 13th of November, and fie. which he charged himself by entries in his own handwriting, was 2,7721. Os. Rd. When the office door was 'Token I found money and vouchers to the amount of 2,4341. 23. lid., the difference being 337/. 17s. 9d. Mr. Little'a dead body was in the office at the time. Unless the dif ference was feloniously abstracted from the office, he had no means of accounting for the deficiency ; there was 3301. in actual cash taken, including the surplus moneys. Inspector Ryan having re-acknowledged his in formation on which the warrant for the prieonet's arrest was granted, Sergeant Meares, of the G division, st +led that he searchel the ralway premises on the 24th June, a,n.l found between the po )thou - e wall an'l the railway 2321. in gold, silver, notes, and copper, amongst which were two packages marked 2/. 6s. and 21. 18s. 6d. surplus won Mr. Porter—There is sufficient to justify me in sending the prisoner for trial. If (addressing the pris )nor) you wig% to say anything upon the sub ject you are at liberty to do so ; but it is right that I should caution you that what you state will be reiuced to writing, and may be given in evidence against you on your trial. Prisoner—l decline to make any statement until I am able to produce counsel. Mr. Fitzgibbon—l unders'and that Inspector Ryan found upon the prisoner's person 10/., and I think it is right that it should be put into his hands to do with it what be pleases. Mr. Porter—Oh, certainly. It appears that there was found upon him 9 /. 10 s. gold, 7s. 6d. in silver, and sd. in copper. Prisoner—l hive been told that will not be suf ficient to defend me. The gentlemen 'that have been acting for me recently have been complaining bitterly that they have been at a loss, and that they did not rective enough to cover the expenses of the trial. Mr. Fitzgibbon — We have nothing to do with that. Mr. Porter—Direct Inspector Ryan to bring the money over to the prisoner and get a receipt from him. d he would g i ve him The prisoner here asked Inspect or Ry an for his watch. Mr. Porter—ln reference to the observation that every thing Ispn b e a c t to h r i s R n il I s n a if e. you have made of not having received enough, .1 understand that the Crown offered you the means to pay for your defence at the late investigation. The Prisoner—These gentlemen tell me that they have been at a loss. Mr. Porter—lt is very well that the public should know that the Crown were not bound to give you anything at all. Mr. Fitz g ibbon—It is right to mention that there were found eight sovereigns and 17s. 6d. in the prisoner's drawer at the time of his arrest, which money was returned to him when the trial was over ; and before his trial the Crown had given him no less a sum than 201. to do what 1).1 pleased with, and that was a very ample bum for his defence. Mr. Corballis—The prisoner having had furni ture it was thought not right to deprive him of the means of defence, and in that way the 201. was ad vanced, though the furniture was only valued at 131., so that he could not say that he was deprived of the moans of defence. Mr. Porter then committed the prisoner for trial at the next city commission. THE MURDER IN THE QUEEA'S BENCH PBISON. Mr. W. Payne, the coroner for the bprough of Southwark, yesterday held an inquest in the Queen's Bench Prison, upon the body of Robert Hender son Robertson, who died iu the prison in conse quence of injurirs inflicted upon hitu by an Ita'ian named Antonio de Salvi, with a dagger-knife under very peculiar circumstances. Mr. M'Mahon, the barri.ter, was present to watch the proceedings on behalf of Do Salvi, Mr; Sleigh and Mr. E. Hawley were present on behalf of Mr. J. S. Gower, whose name was mentioned in connection with the proceedings ; and Mr. Craw ford, from the office of Mr. Wontner, solicitor, was present on behalf of the family of the deceased. The matter that was the subject of inquiry has been so frequently before the public, that it will be unnecessary to do more in the outset than to state that the deceased was confined in the Queen's Bench Prison at the suit of De Salvi and Mr. Gower, and that on the Bth July they both went to the Queen's Prison, accompanied by a solicitor named Thomp son, for the purpose of endeavouring to effect some arrangement with the deceased relative to the pay ment of the debt. It appeared that the deceased was disinclined to make any such arrrangement, and denied that he owed the money ; and the consequence was that De Salvi became fearfully excited, and suddenly drew a dagger knife, and stabbed the deceased in the face, and the temple, and the nape of the neck, the blade of the knife breaking in the last mentioned wound. The injuries were from the first fel to be of so danger ous a character, that it was known the decease 1 could not survive ; and he lingered until Saturday last, when he expired. Upon the supposition that Mr. Gower bad made use of some expression of encouragement to De Salvi, they were both com mitted upon the charge of wounding with intent to murder, but the grand jury ignored the bill against Mr. Gower, who had been admitted to bail, and De Salvi was tried and convicted on Friday last at the Central Criminal Court, upon a minor count on the indictment of wounding with int3nt to do bodily harm, and sentenced to fifteen years' penal servitude. Mr. Sleigh, at the commencement of the pro ceedings, said he thought it right to state that Mr. Gower would have been present, but that in conse quence of the state of his health, arising from the anxiety he had undergone, he had found it abso lutely necessary to go into the country, bet he had been telegraphed for that morning, and he would very probably be in attendance before. the close of the inquiry, and he was most anxious to answer any qtr scions the jury might think fit to put to him in reference to the sad affair. Mr. Wakem, the surgeon of the prison, was then called as a witness. He stated, in addition to the testimony that has previously appeared, that the deceased died on Saturday evening, and on the fol lowing morning he made a pest mortem exam:na tion. He said that all the wounds the unfortunate man had received had entirely healed externally,, and he only considered it necessary to make a minute examination of the one at the nape of the neck, in which he had always b?liev,d the broken portion of the kuife still remained. Ho ascertained that the spinal cord had been divided, and dis covered about two inches of the pointed portion of the blade of a knife embedded in one of the verte bras, and it had entered to such an extent as to re quire considerable force to remove it. The cause of death was paralysis, produced by the division of the spinal cord, End the consequent exhaustion that followed upon an injury of that desc , iption. Mr. Wakem produced the portion of the spine that he had removed, preserved in spirits, and with the broken blade of the knife still remaining in the place where he discovered it. The point of the knife was subsequently removed, and compared with the weapon that was picked up at the time of the occurrence, and they were found to correspon.l exactly. Mr. Alexander Robertson, the son of the de ceased, a young man, was then examined. He was a good deal affected while giving his evidence. He said—l reside at No. 26 Berkeley-square. The deceased was my father. He did not follow any profession. His name was Robert Henderson Robertson. He was forty-nine years old. I saw him last week, and he told me then that ho did not think he should recover, but he made no statement relative to this affair. Thomas Buchanan, a police sergeant, produced the broken knife, and he stated that he had made inquiries at most of the cutlers in the metropolis, but could not discover where it had been purcha , ed. The pars ms to whom he had shown it, he said, were of opinion that it was a foreign manufactured knife, and that it had been made either in Frauce or Germany. _ _ Mr. Reed, one of the principal clerks at the Central Criminal Court, produced the deposition of the deceased taken by Mr. Cembe, the magistrate, in the prison, in the presence of De Salvi and Gower, and which has already appeared. The material portions of it consisted of the allegations that he had never seen Gower before the day in question, and that De Salvi hid on previous occa sions threatened his life ; and while he was making the attack upon him Gower called out, " Give it the villain," and incited him to persevere in his violence. In answer to a question put to him, Mr. Reed stated that the grand jury ignored the bill against Gower. Mr. Richard Thompson, the solicitor, who ac companied the parties to the prison on the day in question, was then examined, and he repeated the evi'lenee given by hint on the former occasion. He said that there was first an alterc ition between Mr. Gower and the deceased about the debt, and the latter said that as to 2001. of the money, he had never received it. De Salvi then sael " I let you have the money." The deceased again stated that he did not have it, and De Salvi appeared to be very angry, and got closer to him, and at this time he said Mr. Gower was standing four or five feet off. De Salvi suddenly placed his left hand on the 'deceased's right ehou'd.er, and almost at the same instant appeared to strike him in the face as he thought with his first, but imme. diately afterwards he observed that he was bleed ing, and he fell from his chair, and De Salvi then struck him on the back, and ran out of the room. He then observed that Mr. Gower had also gone out of the room, and he went up to the deceased and rendered him what assistance he could. The witness also stated that he did not see any weapon in De Salvi's hand, and that Gower, to his recol lection, did not say a word while the transaction was taking place. Mr. C. E. F. Wylde, a gentleman at present " residing," as he stated, in the Queen's Bench Prison, deposed, that upon hearing the alarm of murder on the day in question, 11 went into the deceased's room, and heard him exclaim, "I am dying ; take down quickly what I have to say." Witness at once procured some writing paper, and at the request of the deceased he wrote as follows : —" Send for Mr. Henderson, 7, Mincing-lane, by express ; and for Mr. Yenning, 9, Tokenhouse yard. Send for the first medical man you can get." Mr. W. Bell, another inmate if the prison, de posed that he saw De Salvi run out of the deceased's room, followed by Gower, and that the latter made a stop, and exclaimed " Oh !" and at the same time appeared to shudder. Mr. Mouser, another prisoner, repeated the evi dence ho gave at the Central Criminal Court, which was to the effect, that a short time before the Bth of July he.was in the deceased's room with him and De Salvi, and the latter said, in a very menacing , tone, that ho wanted to have some private couver -1 sation with the deceased, and the latter motioned him not to go, and he remained. There was then some conversation between De Salvi and the de ceased upon the subject of the debt due to the fotmer and Mr. Gower, and he said that if the de ceased did not make some arrangement to pay them, be would have his life. The witness stated, in addition, that after the affair had taken p l a ce on the Bth of July, he went into the dec eased's room, and the deceased said to him, " I have not m sa ari minutes to live. I have been st abbed by De h v several times. Gower was mor e to blame than e, because he incited him — t ake care be does not bservation to l escape." The witness made the o the oece as e cl c.

De S a lvi wanted to speak to him, but Mr. Gower said to him, " Don't speak to me, you villain. Oh God, that I should have come to this place with such a villain." In • answer to questions put by Mr. M'Mahon, the witness said that while the deceased was quite aware he could not survive the injuries he had re ceived, he told him the nature of the evidence that had been given by the witness Monger before the magistrate, and he smiled, and said that De Saivi had never threatened him to his face, and he was only afraid of him on account of the threats he had uttered towards him cubicle the prison. Dennis,- one of the turnkeys of the gaol,-deposed that he took charge of De Salvi, and told him that he was accused of stabbing Mr. Robertson, and he replied that it was true. He was then old that Mr. Gower was also charged with inciting him to do the act, and he replied that he knew nothing about it. He, aftar this, tried several times to speak to Mr. Gower, but the latter would not allow him to do so, and repeatedly said that he was a villain and a murderer. • This brought - tl-e evidence to a close, and several of the jury said they were of opinion that it would be unnecessary for the Coroner to trouble himself with any . - observations in reference to Mr. Gower. as thi were of opinion that he had nothing to do with the act committed by the other man, De Sal vi. The Coroner, in summing up, said he should call their attention to all the facts in the case, and they would then form their own conclusions. With regard to De Salvi, he said, it appeared t) him it would be impossible for them, if they believed the evidence, to return any other verdict than one of wilful murder. There was no provocation of any kind that in lsw would reduce the crime to man slaughter, for if a blow had been struck, which was not even suggested, that would not have justified the use of a deadly weapon. As to Mr. Gower, he could only be implicated in the matter by what was termed in law being a principal in the second degree, by aiding and inciting to the commission of the offence ; and to make that out, they must be satisfied that he knew what De Salvi was doing, and that he was aware he was making use of a deadly weapon. It appeared to him that there was little or no evidence to warrant such an assump -1 tion ) and he reminded them that Mr. Thompson, ' who was present all the time, stated that he never saw any weapon_in the hand of De Salvi, and that he imagined he was striking the deceased with his fist urril he saw him bleeding. The jury almost immediately returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against Antonio di Salvi only. I rtlirbr Vbitton SUN OFFICE, Six o'clock: EGIIAM RACES.—(This Day.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.j Salonica..

ALLEGED SUICIDE FROM REFUSAL OF RKLIEF. - HOW THE CASUAL POOR ARE TREATED. JUDGE LYNCH IN KANSAS. Mr. Andrew Stewart, editor of the Steubenville (Ohio) Union, who has lately been travelling through Kansas territory, arrived at this place on Monday evening, having left Leavenworth city on Saturday night, the Ist inst., and favoured us with particulars of a fearful tra gedy enacted on Friday night and Saturday morning in that city. On Friday night, the 31st ult., a man named Stephens, living in Kansas city, came up to Leaven worth city, and, while spreeiog around, went into a drinking shop called the Ward House. The barkeeper, named Baines, became very friendly, and after getting Stephens quite drunk proposed a walk up the river, and took him to a spring on the bank of the Missouri river, just above the Planter's House, where they were met and assaulted by two men, who demanded their money or their lives. The barkeeper, Baines, gave his money up and ran off. When he got to the lower end of the town he gave the alarm that a man was being robbed up the river at the spring. Several parties of citiz ns immediately went up, and arrived on the spot j set in time to find poor Stephens crawling out of the river, his body and head all beaten and bruised with stones and clubs, and his chest and shoulders bearing several stabs and cute. The cit.zens ran to his assistance, but the unfortunate victim, though struggling to speak, was too far gone, and presently died, without being able to utter a single word about the manner of his death or the names of his murderers. Suspicion at once alighted upon the bar-keeper Baines, and so outraged were the people, and so violent, the presumptions of his guilt, that a posse of the citizens at once arrested and held him in close cus tody. Tne news in the meantime spread like wildfire all over the city, and the excitement grew intense. An im mediate trial of Baines was demanded, and finally it was agreed he should be hung on the spot, without judge er jury. A rope was prooured and put round his neck, and already be was being drawn up to the limb of an overhanging tree, when he expressed a wish to make a confession. The crowd yielded and let him down to the „ground. He said that he and two men, one named Tohn Quarles, from South Carolina, and the other called Knowlton, had laid the plot by which Stephens was robbed and murdered, and that the same mon had murdered another man a short time before and thrown the body into the Missouri river. He stated also that he and the men Knowlton and Quarles belonged to an organised body of about 25 men, who lived and carried on the business of robbing and murdering in Leavenworth-city, on the island opposite the city, and in the towns of Lawrence and Topeka. He then gave the names of as many of the gang as ho could remember to the authorities. As soon as Baines had finished his revelations he was committed to the calaboose; a one story stone building about 16 feet square. The crowd then went off in pursuit of Charles and Knowlton, and in a short time had them arrested. Among the revealed conspirators was Win. Woods, 'the proprietor of the greater part of Dsavenworth Island, and regarded by his acquaintances as an hone,t man and good citizen. A party proceeded at once to arrest him, and, after making a thorough search of his house, found 2,500 dole. in counterfeit money, a lot of connterfeiting plates and other instruments, and a knife and pistol belonging to the murdered man, Stephens. At these conclusive proofs of the correctness of the confessions of Bain s the people were deeply moved, and held counsel together in large and small parties during the whole, night. We give the narrative of Mr. Stewart. He Bays,— " I went to the mayor's office on Saturday morning, and found an immense crowd awaiting the result of the examination of Woods and Knowlton. Baines and Quarles were in the calaboose. While the examination was going on Judge Lecompte was outside making a speech, and expostulating with the angry crowd in favour of law and order. The cry of Hang 'em, the murderers !' arose frequently from the mob, but milder ocuurols seemed to be prevailing, when at once some one shouted, To the calaboose! to the calaboose !' an I away a crowd of about 50 maddened men started in that direction. The balance of the people followed after in sma , lsr partie , , leaving Judge Lecompte almost alone, and the mayor's effice relieved of its throng of specta tors. They had teen gone about 15 minutes, when I heard a great yell. I started after the crowd, and followed it to the bank of a creek which divides south and north Leavenworth, where there was a steep bank, and on its edge a large elm tree. I reached the spot in time to see Quarles suspended from the tree, grasping in the agonies of death at the rope which was around his neck, while several of the snob were swinging on to his arms aid legs, to make hie death sure. His body had hardly ceased its convulsions when the shout was raised for BaineS. The rope was pliced around his neck, and he was led to the edge of the bank, when some ono uf the citizeas appeared by his side, and, with a watch in his hand, demanded five minutes for further confessions. They granted it, when Baines said, if they would let him he would show them another man in town who was concerned in the opera- Last evening Mr. Wakley, the coroner, held an inquest at the Eleph tut and Castle, King's-road, Camden-town, on the body of a man unknown, attired in the gall) of a sailor, who is alleged to have applied at the gates of St. Pancras Workhouse for admission and relief, and having been refused, went straight to a pond in the Agar-town-fields and drowned himself. Mr. G. W. F. Cook, solicitor to the parish, and some of the directors of the poor of St. Pancras, attended to watch the proceedings. Mr. Payne said he found the body of the deceased on Saturday morning at a quarter to six in Agar town-fields, in-the water of a pand there. He was not floating, but laid about half an inch below the surface. He went for a policeman, and got the de , ceased out. His hat was lying on the bank with a stone and a handkerchief in it. The policeman searched him and found a farthing in his pockets, and two skeins of thread, one white and the other grey, and a - needle. His clothes did not appear to be torn, nor was there any signs of struggling on the banks of the river. Mr. W. E. Iffreys ' sur g eon, St. Augustine's road, said that about 6 o'clock on Saturday morn ing he was called to see the body of the deceased. Should take him to have been a man of 50 or 55 years of age. Found from the marks on his arm that ho had been a sailor. Had made a post-mortem examination of the body, and believed that he had died of suffocation by drowning. There was nothing in his stomach but a small quantity of water. The brain and vessels of the brain were very much congested, but there was no disease. J. Taylor, police constable 134 S, said he was called by the first witness, and found the body of the deceased as described. Saw deceased about eleven o'clock on the previous night at the workhouse gate. Did not speak to him. Isabella Hewitt said she saw the deceased, whom she did not know, last alive about 10 o'clock on Friday night, at the St. Pancras workhouse gate. There were then two men, two women, and two children lying at the gate. Was herself waiting for a night's lodging s and remained there till the de ceased's body was brought in. He left the gate about 11 o'clock, and was very sick and ill. He complained of faintness and sickness. When he came witness asked him if he had rang the bell, and he said " No." He then rang the bell, and one of the men asked what he wanted, and ho replied he wanted a bed. The Coroner directed that the officers of the gate should be sent for, for identification. Charles Smart, police-constable, 404 S, said he saw deceased about a quarter before one on Satur day morning, in the Ki ng ' s - roa d, an d h e sa id h e h a d nowhere to go to. He asked him if he had applied to the workhouse, and he replied that he had, but they would not admit him. Told him to go to Gray's Inn-lane Union, and he said he had not been there, but he said he would go down to the work house again, and left witness for that purpose. He was quite sober, and looked destitute. He did not make any observation as to how long he bad been without food. By Mr. Cook—Did not ask the deceased what his name was, or what parish he belonged to. Re did not have the appearance of being exhausted. Isabella Hewitt recalled—When the man an swered the gate deceased said " I want a bed for the night." The man who answered him is now before the court, and he said " There is no bed to-night for you, nor any one else." The man referred' to, who is one of the inmates, said his name was Thomas Mingatty. The witness then repeated in substance the evi dence already given. By the Coroner—l only asked for a bed once. None of us got in. I remained with my child, aged 11, and the other two women remained with their two children outside the gate all night. The Coroner inquired if there were any rules laid down for the admission of persons on applying at the gate '1 Mr. Cook said there were, and he wculd send for them. The Coroner warned the jury that they must not place implicit reliance on all the statements made by this witne-s, as they were made in the absence of the parties concerned. At the same time he feared there was too much truth in it. He really could not understand why the poor were treated in this manner by workhouse authorities. If the Sepoys in India were to treat any of our people in the same way, we should set them down as the greatest brutes in existence. Mr. Cook said there were a class of persons who determined to make the workhouse their home, and live upon the public. After a long conversation upon this point between the Coroner and Mr. Cook. Thomas Mingatti was sworn—He said he was an inmate of the workhouse, and was night watchman at the gate. The gate-porter is over me, a dI consider him] my master. Mr. Gram ma was the gate-porter on duty that night. , I do not recollect a sailor applying for admission on Friday night. I came on duty at nine o'clock. I will swear to the remember a person best of my recollection I do not on Frida remember the woman Hewitt applying night. I like a sailor applying for admission y for admission, and told her we bad no casual ward but if she belonged to the parish d apply to e overseer. They take them for six she ooulmonths, th into the separation ward. We had not admitted an y casuals that night or the previous night. I know there were women and children lying outside the gate, and I told the porter of it. He said he could - not let them in. I have no instructions but from the gate porter. Mr. Cameron—The gate porter's duties are care fully defined. Mingatti said he was paid Is. 61 per week and a pint of porter as night watchman. He was an inmate of the house. The Coroner condemned the practice of employ ing paupers in any office. The Coroner said ' some important points had been rats .d in this inquiry, and a moral questi° ll was also raised as to the mode of adininisteerinrsg-r:i lief, and he had no doubt but that the'dirree f the poor, who, from all he had heard,th endea dinquiry into it. vatting to effect great reforms . in t of St. Pancras, would make . e V . orklio use a u r s ig were the directors Mr. Cameron said; ATTSIIrTED SUICIDE IN A W ATERBUTT.—Yesterday deceased men bad applied f or_ to do so, that in C0118()Tutmall relief and been re ets,*'wof a rumour -that the morning a woman Emma Squires, residing in Snow'r., fused, they had, at their board meeting that after fields, Bermondsey, attempted self•destruction by drown-an. inquiry to ascertain if l u g herself in a waterbutt.

He was then taken to the calaboose, but for some reason did not give satisfaction to the people, and they demanded his body to be returned to them. Judge Lecompte again addressed the people, and with some effect, for they seemed to divide into two parties, the one clamouring for the hanging of the pri soner, and the others demanding a trial for him. Marshal Denis, of the Territory, was also present, and though he exerted himself with all his power, he could not maintain his position at the door of the calaboose, nor prevail on the crowd to disperse. The wife of Baines, also, ap peared, and, in , pired by the dangerous situation of her husband, took a heroic stand on the entrance, and en deavoured by frantic threats and entreaties to stay the wrath of the populace. But all efforts were unavailing ; the peace party were overpowered. Judge Lecompte s voice was drowned by the shrieks of the mob. A. large piece of hewn timber, perhaps 25 feet long and one foot square, that was lying near, was lifted up by a crowd of men, and plunged with fearful effect against the cala boose door. The sight of the wife's distress and the sound of her screams, mingled with the ragings and shticks of the infuriated mob, were too much for me, and I turned my back and walked away. I heard an other blow front the piece of timber and a simultaneous shout from the crowd, which told me that the door bad given way and the prisoner was at the mercy of the people. I walked hastily around the tqaare, for with all its terror there was a fascination in the s ight, and reached the spot just in titne to see the mob r ushing down e the street with the prisoner towards the creek h and t theis din tree. I pursued, and when I reacnbedhi spo. body of Baines was already in the air, e a d t s l e ast deah struggles were shivering along bs. The crowd h Woods and Knowlton then appeared to be satisfied. meanwhile had been pla ced in an omnibus and hur ried off to fort. The city continued very much ex cited up to the hour I left, but no further violence was anticipated. All sorts of stories prevailed, and many of the mysterious disappearances and rob beries which have occurred in the territory are all being referred to this band of murderers." Two or more of the gang have since been apprehended and executed.-- Missouri Democrat. 100 100 all 100 all 100
