I A G single, and the other .I.n One half the world are desolat e l y supposing them married, questionably contented. DiffidenCe or e a r sense of right determ ne the former, one miscalculated hopes em eater the latter. The solitary one may shield him•elf under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un onittrosinl hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity. and broken health, are the great h:ndrinces to domestic happiness a d social convent. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item i the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

THE QUEEN AGAINST SMITH AND EVENDEN This was an indictment against the prisoners, TV. Smith and John Evenden, for a burglary inthe dwelling. house of Mrs. Charlotte Wright and - Mr. Robert Wright at lichen Ferry, near Souttiorupton, in the month or March last, under somewhat singular circumstances. The trial lasted seven hours, and excited great interest. Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Alassey prosecuted; Mr. Missing appeared for the prisoner Smith, and Mr. Slade for Evenden. Mr. Robert Wright and his mother lived at lichen Ferry, and on Friday, the 5.h of March last, retired to rest as usual. During the night a slight noise was heard, but it dui not then excite any suspicion. In the m9rn ing, h6crever, it was discovered that the dining and drawing-rooms and library were in great confusion, and boxes and writing desks had been ransacked. On a further search, it was found that a large quantity of plate had been taken, and 45L in bank -notes, and that the thieves had entered through the window of the water closet. A quantity of lucifer matches were still upon the floor and the ledge of the window. Some plate was also found packed up in baskets ready for re moval. Up to the 29:h of May all inquiries were fruit less. but on that day Mr. Payne, a glazier, who had formerly worked for Mr. Wright, was accidentally paSsing the shop of Mr. Attenborough. a pawnbroker, in Fleet-street, and recognised in the window a portion of the plate, which had that day for the first time been exposed fur sale. This witness stated that he was in the habit of examining, all silversmiths' shops when he had time, as he fancied the " King's pattern," and bought plate of that pattern whenever he could do so at a moderate price, for the use of a lodging-house that he kept in Albany-street, and that he had carried on this 'earch for several years. It further appeared that from the description Mr. Attenborough gave of the persons who pawned the plate, the witness Payne felt convinced they were the prisoners, whom he had known some time before at Southampton. and they were subsequently 'aken into custody. Upon searching Smith's house a carpet bag was found, which Attenborough said he believed was the very bag in which the plate was brought to his shop, and on this being produced at the examina tion of the prisoners before the Lord Mayor, Smith tainted, and stated afterwards that is was because of the bag. _ Mr. Attenborough was then examined, and in the most positive manner swore to the prisoners, and that they brought the plate to his shop about five o'clock on the 11th of March. He detailed minutely all that passed on the occasion, and gave the whole of his evidence in a remarkably clear and acute manner. To Evenden he spoke even more positively than Smith, and produced the book in which Evenden had entered his name as Richard Wright. He also stated that the loan was for a month, but that the plate was not exhibited for sale until a few hours before Payne saw it. Mr. MISSING then addressed the jury for the prisoner Smith, and after commenting upon the extreme danger of relying upon the recollection of any single individual when borne out by no corroborative circumstances, called the following witnesses to prove that Smith could not have been at Southampton on the night of the sth of March. Mr. Crace examined by Mr. MIssING—I am a deco rator. Smith was in my employ when he was appre hended. On the sth and 6th of March he was employed at the House of Lords. In that week I was there every day, and I should have missed him if he had not been there. He was not reported a; absent. He is a steady man. and I would trust him anywhere. I employed him at the Duke of Devonshire's after the charge was made, having the fullest conMence his innocence. CroW-exaritirred 01.4Nioqia—I had thiN or forty mtn at the ous% flr of Lordi. l i he hours of stork vre from six until 11111-past five: Mr. Diekfexamined by Mr. MISSING—I am the fore man of the works, under the last witness, at the House of Lords. Smith was there on that day, and was there it six on the 6th of March. He was absent two bour• during the week, but not on that day. On the 11th his time was marked full. He is a very excellent workman, and would have been more likely to be missed than any one else. Cross-examined by Mr. GREENWOOD—My bmines. was to superintend the workmen. I did not work mv self. The time is made up daily. I produe:. the werlil) tables made up on the Saturday, from daily memoranfir made by me. By the JUDGE—It is my duty to cheA the men's work, and their pay depends upon the time they work As stated in my rep , rt , I generally go down before the men and leave afterwards. George G!over— I am in the employ of Mr. Croce an heraldic dfcorator. Smith worked with me at the Crouse of Lords. Smith was there on the sth, and al the 11th, the full time. Ile worked from my drawings. Cross-examined by Mr. MASSEY—There were from six or seven to eighteen or nineteen there. I keep no memoranda as to the men being absent. By the JUDGE—Smith was more useful to me than the others. Mr. SLADE also addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoner Evenden, and suggested that in truth Payne must have known more about the robbery than 'any one else, he having admitted, on cross-examination, that he knew the premises well, and how the water-closet window opened and shut, and that he had led Mr. Attenborou h to believe he had the full recollection of the men. tie called the following witnesses to show that there must have been a mistake made by A ttenborough, although quite believing'himself to be right. Mr. Buzzard—l have had the prisoner Evenden in my employ for two years. I place the fullest confidence in him. lam not aware that he has been absent for a day. The handwriting in the pawnbroker's book is not his— of this I am as certain as I can be. Cross-, xamined by Mr. GREENWOOD—I know he came from Southampton. I hope he will be in my employ again. - Mr. T. Payne—l am the stepson of the prisoner Even den. I produce a f am ily Bibl e, s h owing an entry that Evenden's birthday was the 6th of March. I left off work about half-past five o'clock on the sth. Be came home about six o'clock. He remained at home until bed-time, about ten or half-past ten o'clock. My mother called me into her room just as I was going to bed, to sho w me on the %ly some presents that were to be given to my father the next day. The next day, about half-past six o'clock, I went into his room, and wished him many happy returns of the day. Cross-examined by Mr. GREENWOOD—I do not recol lect whether we went out together; but he was at work by seven o'clock on the 6th. Emily Evenden—l am eleven years old. I bought with my sister a birthday present for my father, on the sth. It was with money given me in the morning. Mr. Farmer—Evenden had some work to do at Guildhall on the 10th. I saw him at work until ten minutes to five on the 11th. I gave him a light to finish the work. Cross-examined by Mi. GREENWOOD—I first was asked about this a month since: I have no written me morandum as to the work being done on that day. Mr. Kearney—l was at work at Mr. Buzzard's on the 1 lth of March. I saw Evenden at the shop about ten minutes past five. He left about a qnarter to six. I fix the day by an accident that occurred to some oil, which was sent in upon the 4th, and I produce the in• voice. Cross-examined by Mr. GREENWOOD—AEI went to the shop I observed that it was seven minutes past five by Aldgate church. The shop is in Old Jewry. Mr.LGREENWOOD replied, and pointed:out that the evi dence of Mr. Attenborough must be credited, and, with the exception of the statement of the stepson of the prisoner Evenden, it was still possible for the pri soners to have been at Southampton on the night of the sth. Mr. Justice WILLUMS summed up with great care. and expressed his regret that so much had been said about Payne, for there was nothing to implicate him in the least degree with the robbery, and his evidence was hardly of any importance, and had been corroborated in every point. The jury, after about twenty minutes, returned a ver dict of Nos Guilty. The court was crowded until the end of the case, nearly nine o'clock, and loud approbation was ex pressed at the verdict, but immediately stopped by the officers. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Worcester, July 15. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice COLRIDGE.) John Hill was indicted for having forged, on the 13th of October last, an acquittance for 251., with intent to de fraud one Sarah Cooper.

TIIE LIBERAL ELECTION COMMITTEE FOR THE RETURN OF LORD JOHN RUSOELL, JAMES FATTISON, ESQ., SIR GEORGE LARPLNT, AND BARON LIONEL DE ROTHS CHILD, TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF LONDON. oIENTLEsiEN, AStatement addressed to you by the Committee for conducting the City Election on °Omit of the Coniervative can•odates clumsily conceals distress and weakness =Ex misrepre sentation. Tae. intemperate language used by gentlemen who presented them selves .t the General Conservative Meeting, while it indicated that sense of insecurity whicu usually vents null in abuse contained dis areclitable imputations ag .bas; Hi, Liberal candidates, to which this Committee felt they could not appropriately reply, without some de parture from that self-respect which they have determined to make tie i rule of conduct. When those imputationsare reduced to the more deliberate form of an official address, however, they feel it due, not only to the general body of the Constituency, but to the intelligent and respectable Portion of the Conservative electors, to give such an explanation of their position as will show that this Committee are not insensible to the responsibility they have undertaken. The unvarying support which the great majority of the citizens of London have given to the Cause of Reform is matter of history. The change in the franchise created by the Reform . Bill produced additional evidence of the predominance of those opinions In the return of exclusively Liberal representatives lor the whole metro politan constituencies. From that peried until the eeneral election of 1841, London unitormly returned to Parliament foar Liberal re presentatives; until, from peculiar cireamstances, unconnected with the general current of party politics, an equal division of the repre sentation took place. Did the Conservatives rest satisfied with this arrangement? Did Mr. Russell Mice, whose name is attached to that manifesto of moderation with which. his recent objurgations have indicated so little sympathy, acquiesce in the vie * e now enunciates ? Were p h he and his party contented to perm *g vacancy to be filled up by a Reform candidate ? No—when ey considered either that the advantage of their position, or the state of the regis' er, warranted them in placing a third candidate in the field, they di 1 not hesitate le ve,,tare into the lottery of an election, upon data as fallacious as the ground o their present hopes. Against the most powerful and turcially influential candidate, and the most unscrupulous use of the ar,,,ster freencies of every protected interest of the feigning Govern ment, and of the aristocracy, whose monopoly was perilled in the contest. Mr. Mattison, in 1843, aided by nothing but his principles and the party predilections of the constituency, was returned by a majority sufficiently indicative of the predominance of Liberal opi nions iu the city of London. Have any circumstances occurred since which would warrant the inference that the Reform interest has retrograded arid is no longer in the ascendant? From the hour of Mr. Pattison's triumph this Committee have in cessantly " fought the battle of the Constitution in the Registration Courts," and with such success, that not from the vague calculations end presumptions of an electioneering agent, founded confessedly upon the state of the register in 1843. but upon an actual canvas of t ose electors whose opinions were Liberal or unascertained, corn - menced and completed within the last six months, they are fully warranted in the assurance to which they have pledged themselves, that on the present register there is a large majority of Liberal electors. In the knowledge of such facts, and in the face of the past pro vocation wantonly offered to them by the opposition to the return of Mr. Paulson, this Committee felt they would have altogether pros tituted the purposes for which the representative system was en trusted to the people by the constitution, if they had deprived the co istitueticy of the power of retrieving their character from the anomaly of placing the community of the greatest city of the world in a state of utter political nee ation. With the proceedings of this Committee, founded on these views, an attempt is tow made invidiously to connect Lord J , hn Russell, on no other fount'ation than that that great statesman is the deliberats and first choice of the Lit eral electors. The Comtnitt , e regard, with great complacency, an imputation of arbitrary intolerance, based solely on the tact Hirt no ether alterna tive was ever offered to them than a cont, at. or the perempto. y de mand of the con. ession of nothing less than an equal divis on of the IN presentation betwixt a Liberal majority, and a not very fermi dable Cuieservattve minority. I% hen some o'. anic machinery is eiscuvered by which it shall be found either expedient or practice le to reducer t e representative system to fractional rules of proportal 1, it will beti me enough to c 4isider the reeisonableness of the pro a sition to have the minority represented by ens candidate, and the majority by another. With regard to the allusions c ntained in the Conservative address to the relation in which the Prime Minister is alleged to stand to wards one of the other candidates, it is sufficient to reply that Baron Ititlischild is the candidate, not of Lord John Russell, but of the con stituency ; and that while this committee regret that departure from the ordinary amenities of political warfare, which Indecently at tempts to implicate the first ti blister of the Crown, in the proceed ings .:ecullar to the tactics of contested elections, they are prepared to take the exclusive responsibility of recommending for the suffrages of their fellow citizens a gentleman whose unsullied private cha racter and exalted commercial station, alike qualify him to be the representative of the gre test mercantile city in the world. That he is also the symbol of a treat principle will not be regarded as a dis qualification for the enjoyment of the equal rights of the free citizens of a free country by the generous and just-minded people of England. This Committee receive with cordiality the assurance that, among the high-minded gentlemen whom they are proud to recognise in the ranks of their opponents, "Lord John Ru-sell has been treated with Perfect respect by the Conservatives of London." To these they con fidently appeal against the vi lent leapt ige in which it has not been considered inconsistent with the character of gentlemen to assail the motives of the Prime Minister in reference to this contest. His la borious public duties, and his official position, by leaving him de fenceless, ought to have spared hiin the indignity of such attacks. But the whole body of the Liberal electors feel ttoestrained to ask their Conservative fellow-citizens whether the following report of a speech delivered at the London Tavern is consistent with those pre fessions of " perfect respect" for Lord John Russell which are so lavishly effused in the address of their Committee : "The ?rime Minister had associated himself with a gentleman h. knew could not take his seat for the purpose of getting funds to carry on the contest," When it is added that the name attached to this unworthy and un founded insinuation is that which subscribes the address containing these claims to the credit of " treating Lord John Russell with per• feet respect," the public will be at no loss to appreciate either the good taste of the speech, or the sincerity of tke document. In conclusion, the Committee leave it to the sound sense of their fellow-citizens of all opinions to decide upon the relative merits of the candidates before them, persuaded that the comparison must attach them to those whose political consistency, moderati -n, posi tion, and qualifications most eminently fit them to represent the vast and varied interests of the city of London.

The capabilities of this machine are best demonstrated by the fact, that it is exclusively used In the Government and numerous public offices, while the plitronage bestowed by a large number of the nobility-and gentry in eontinuing their annual con tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well as of the philanthropic views of the projectors.

The Directors of this Comp my have the satisfaction to announce that they have obtained their amended Act, and will proceed with all possible speed to carry out the important objects for which the. Com. pany is incorporated They are ready to receive applications for the New Shares of 201. cads, authorised by the amended Act to be Iss •ed.

The Company's plans have been already tried, and their advan .ages proved, on a farm of 300 acres near Glasgow. At Edinburgh the application of sewage water has raised the value of land from 2s 6d. an are to 151. and 201.; and at Mansfield from 4s. 6d. to 111. 4s. The Select Committee of the House of Commons on the Company's 11111" urge the importance of the project," and declare their opinion "that only through the agency of a company" can the objects con templated, " be combined and applied to the important purposes of Cleansing our Towns, Purifying our Rivers, and Enriching our s o u . . Again, the Report of Her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and Forests prmounces "the principis involved" to be " national." The establishment of this Company may • therefore be regarded as the commencement of a system fraught with great national benefits, contemplating not only profit upon invested capital, but increased comfort and improved health to the inhabitants of towns, and ines timable advantages to the agriculture of the United Kingdom. The most careful calculation that has been made, exhibits a profit of Nom 15 to 20 per cent. ; this calculation was based upon the esti mated supply of Sewage to 39,000 acres, but since that time Farmers, Market Gardeners, and Landowners, cultivating about 68,000 acres of land have, by petition to Parliament, expresed their anxiety to take a supply of Sewage Manure from the Company. The Act of Incorporation requires that at least three months' notice shall elapse between the Calls, which shall not exceed 21. 10s. per Share. Five per cent. Interest will be paid on all stuns received in advance of Calls. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. To the Directors of the Metropolitan Sewage Manure Company.

Th e fi rm h aving some cause to disapprove of the e , expressed their dissatisfaction to him, and on Saturday, the 13th of J une , 1846, directed him' to attend•on the following Monday to give the necessary explanations. lastead however, of punctually observing the engage ment, he absconded and on the very day he disappeared. he received upon the account of his employer the sum of 50/. Messrs. Nathaniel Johnson and Co., it was neces ,ary to state, kept an account with Messrs. H. and J. Johnson, of Bush-lane, and it was from the latter firm the prisoner received the amount first mentioned. It was the duty of the prisoner upon receiving any money for his employers to enter the amount in his books, and In the absence of any of the principals of the firm from town to town, to apply, if money should be required for the transaction of business, to Messrs. H. and J. Jonson, of Bush-lane, for the necessary sum, and advantage had been taken of the power thus given, to cause deficiencies of no slight magnitude. Mr. Judd said—l reside at No. 6, Mark-lane, and cirry on business there under the n ame o f Nathaniel Johnson and Sons, wine merchants. On the 13th of June the prisoner was in my service, and had been so during the six preceding years. It was his duty to re tsoncas my . bo alcuo r t accountoranthdetpourposeof business, creecivee one he ivmedini I had a letter of c r e dit upon H . and J. Johnson, of No. 15, Bush-lane, to w h om , w h en I was out of town, it was occasionally the duty o f t h e pr i soner to apply. It was for all also his duty occasionally to write a cheque from my house to enable Messrs. H. and J. Johnson to send a counter cheque.— (Here a cheque for 50/. and a letter were handed to witness.) This cheque, signed W. H. Thompson, and dated 13th June, and this letter, without a date are in the handwriting of the prisoner. The cheque is upon the banking-house of Smith, Payne, and Smiths, but it was never entered in our books. I told the prisoner to meet me in our counting-house at ten o'clock on Monday, as I was not satisfied with the way in which he made up his books. He did not meet me according to appointment. I knew he was in the city on the day appointed, but I h ave not seen h i m since until now. In his cross-examination, the witness said he could not tell the exact time at which the prisoner 'mama superior clerk in the establishment, but the prisoner had the total charge of the business of the house after the death of Mr. Miller, who had been principally employed. When witness was in London, the prisoner certainly was not empowered to sign cheques. The Learned Counsel for the prisoner then proceeded to put questions to the witness relative to the kind of confidence reposed in clerks in wine houses, connected with those secrets of trade which commercial men are not compellable to disclose, but the Lord Mayor objected to such a course. The witness admitted that he reposed confidence in the prisoner. He had, he said, received 401. from John Forrester, the officer, who apprehended the prisoner, on the general account of the prisoner. The counsel for the prisoner put several questions to the witness with the view of obtaining an answer to the effect that the 401. handed over to him by John For rester was upon the account of the particular cheque for 50/. drawn by the prisoner upon the house of H. and J. Johnson, of Bush-lane. The witness replied that he received the 40/. on ac count of the defalcations of the prisoner (as our reporter understood the evidence.) The witness, in his re-examination, stated that the prisoner had no authority whatever to draw the cheque tor the 50L, and that the letter address to Messrs. M. and J. Bush, representing that there was occasion for that money to pay duties on certain wines, contained a misrepresentation altogether. The counsel for the prisoner submitted that it ap peared that the prisoner had acted upon a general order, and that such being the case, no embezzlement had been made out. Mr. Humphreys was satisfied that the Lord Mayor would see as clear a case of embezzlement in the facts stated as could be exhibited. The Lon") MAYOR—The case distinctly amounts to this—that the prisoner has not accounted for the 50.: Mr. Humphreys —There is a great deal said about a doubt as to the eMbezzlement of this sum of 50/. There are several other cases which I shall-ea/I mow a future day ; in the meantime, I shall `ask Mr. ',add Sitbamceint of the prisoner's defalcations ? • e 411 , 0 C Mr. Judd—Th e y ar e certa i n l y harjnpon 4, 01. - .

Thompson. and the letter with he same signature. By virtue of that cheque and that letter he gave the bearer a cheque for 50/. upon the 'louse of Messrs. Payne and Smith, to the best of his re collection. The cheque was returned in due course by the bankers. Mr. Judd, in answer to other questions, said the pri ioner had a commission upon sales, and a certain sum innually as clerk, and witness had heard from him that he was in partnership with another firm. By the consent of both sides it was then determined hat the prisoner should be remanded till the 10th of august. BO IV-STREET. CHARGE OF FORGERY.—A young man, named Francis Burton, was brought battle Mr. henry, charged with ~ !omrcicting a forgery under the following circum stances:— Mr. Peacock, solicitor to the Post-office, conducted he prosecution. The prisoner came up from Stamford about a fortnight back to seek employment as a clerk, and having taker , odgings at a coffee-shop in Bishopsgate- street, where he ran up a score of 155., he gave the landlord, Mr Jldgate ' a Post-office order, which h e sa id h e h a d j ust received from his grandfather, who resided in the coun try, from whom he received 41. 10s. in change. I - 1(- hen purchased a pair of shoes, and after they had drank together he pretended to go out for the purpose of getting a few biscuits, but never returned. On the following day the order was presented at the General Post-office 'or payment by the landlord, when he was informed that he order was for 10s. only, and that he had been im nosed upon. Mr. William White, a clerk in the Money Order-office dentified a letter of advice from the postmaster at Stain turd, addressed to the postmaster of London, to pay th. ,um of 10i. t o F ranc i s B urton; i t was d a t e d July 6, ard copied into the money order-book, corresponding with the date, but not in the amount, in consequence of whiel• s letter was lowarded to the postmaster at Stamford, to account for the difference. _ Constable Peake proved that he traced the prisoner from Stamford to Peterborou i rh post-office, where asked for a letter addressed to Mr. Pinder, but received none ; and after asking him some questions, be admitted having given a money order at the coffee-shop in Bihopsgate,street which be had received from his grand rather at Stamford, and that it was then in the same state lie had received it. He then denied the charge: and on asking him what became of the envi l gyp, in which he received the letter containing the order from the country, he replied it was in the posses• sion of Miss Burton, his aunt, at the Albion Hotel, in Cookspur- street. Witness, on arriving in town, went ti the hotel, and received from Miss Burton, the envelope t p o r o T cl h u e ced which enclose pr prisoner letter edre had calit inderde s been ssaeyd nh u g r e turned r anything inside tthhi engv o ni suohtni his defence, used and he was ordered to be remanded for a few days. William Triphook and John Finley were charged with uttering two forged cheques, purporting to be signed by Lord Skelinersdale, at M essrs . C outts and Co. Mr. George, a clerk, in the employment of Messrs. Coutts and Co., said, that about a week ago, the pi isoner Triphook entered Messrs. Coutts', and presented fl cheque for I/. It was signed as if by Lord Skelmers dale, and payable to Mrs. Wheeler. It was indorsed, Pay Mr. Finley.—C. Wheeler." Witness paid it, and the prisoner went away. This morning the prisoner again offered a cheque for the same amount, and with the same signature, which, however, he immedia.ely per ceived to be a forgery. He told the prisoner I le a , aintd lastthe orisoner replied, " Why, I gave y the prisoner found that and you the firstpaid chequeit ."

Mr. Finley, the prisoner's brother. The second he received from the prisoner himself this morning. The prisoner Finley said that he was a tailor in Birmingham, and had received the first cheque in the way of trade from a person named Williams there. Having some suspicio ns , from the small amount its being writt en on a pi.ece. of common paper,anadndnefrtoemn a printed f orm, as usual, he sent it to his brother by post, requesting him to send it to Messrs. Coutts's to get it cashed. He dela'yed bringing his business to a con clusion until he heard from his brother that the cheque was paid ; then, thinking that sufficient proof of the genuineness of the cheque was g i ve n, he gave Wheele r the goods he h a d bought and the change due out of 14 on Friday being in London he received the second cheque by post from his father, who was managing his business in Bi rm i ng h a m. He had the lett er in which his father endorsed the cheque, at his brother's house in the Strand. Mr. HENRY allowed the prisoner to go home in charge of the offices to look for the letter, and in a few minutes he returned with it. Mr. HENRY said that he was inclined to think the letter was genuine, and the prisoner's statement CI ue, but it was $ point of suspicion against Finley that when he expressed his doubts as to the genuineness of the ----1--,' zz, --Z/---%''--/ ,-- first cheque, h did not nial%fr-v‘ny inquiry as to the oi 4 character of th e p erson who gaze it him. Mr. Wiens said that he thought Triphook ought to be discharged at once, and the other prisoner admitted to bail. Mr. HENRY was of the same opinion, and it was ulti mately agreed that Finley should he liberated on giving his ~wn r.coguizarce fur 1001., and his brother's for the same sum, on condition that he should go at once to Birmingham, will the officer, to endeavour to find Wheeler, and gve him in charge. Triphook was accordingly discharged, and Finley en ter,d into the required recognizances to appear again on Thursday next. The parties then left the Court. CLE I?KE N {FELL. I Daniel Hitchcock, who was brought up on Friday at Lambeth Police-court, c n they charge of havingmurdered two of his children about six or seven years ago, and which charge rested upon his own confession, was brought before Mr. Combo, in pursuance of:Mr. Norton's direction, for fad! examination, the alleged murder having been connuitti d within the Clerkenwell district. In-pector Valentine stated that he had made in quiries since the prisoner surrendered himself, and two persons were now in attendance, who could give the Magistrate some information on the state of the pri soner's mind. One of them, the prisoner's landlord, said he considered him not to be s,. and in mind; while his employer stated, that although eccentric occasionally, he never seemed unconsciou s of the consequei.ces of his actions. Mr. Com-nu inquired what the nature of the person's confession was ? The inspector replied that he bad accused himself of having, by means of arsenic, procured abortion twice in a female with whom he resided. Mr. COMBE said he could not see the slightest grounds for susp,cting that there was any foundation for the crime of which the prisoner wished to make himself appear guilty. The probability was that he had acted as he had done through some morbid anxiety for noto riety, or perhaps by bringing the name of the female before the public he thought to annoy the party to whom she was now married. He should order him to be at once discharged. The self accused then left the court apparently very reluctantly, and muttering something about great dim-. tresa.prinind-for hie imaginaryprune. , - - , -, 3-- , - - ' . • ". '' - R WESTMINSTE. DETERMINED ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE AND CHILD MURDER.—Elizabeth Joppinq, a middle-aged woman, was charged with attempting to drown herself and child. The poor woman, whose face appeared much swollen and bruised, had a fine infant in her arms, and a little girl about seven years of age by her side. At about four o'clock yesterday morning, a policeman observing the defendant pass through King-street, West minster, apparently in a very agitated state, he deter mined to follow her. Defendant after endeavouring to get into two wharfs in Abingdon-street, quickened her pace, and suddenly entering the Horseferry-wharf, threw herself and child into the Thames. The constable immediately followed, and after the poor woman and infant had been under the water, succeeded in catching hold of her and dragging her out with the child in her arms. Both were taken to St. Margaret's workhouse, where every attention was paid to them, and they shortly recovered. The policeman was of opinion that the de fendant had been drinking at the time she committed the act. Defendant said that the continual cruelty of her hus band had driven her to commit the offence. He had so beaten her about the head on that morning that she hardly knew what she was about. The sister of defendant stood up in the witness box, and said that the husband, who is a bargeman, was as good a husband as ever lived, when sober, but when drunk, a p. rfect madman. Mr. BURRELL asked whether he often got drunk ? The sister said, not very often. Had the policeman who saw him at the time he was drunk that morning, taken him for ill-treating her, she, in all probability, would not have attempted to destroy herself. Mr. BURRELL inquired whether the policeman saw the husband strike his wife 7—A female in the court said she witnessed the whole of the transaction, and the Policeman both saw the husband knock his wire's head agains• the wall, and then kick her. Mr. BURRELL observed, that he grossly neglected his duty then, and inquiries should be made into the matt• r. On the sister un•iertaking the care of the de'endant, and the latter promis , ng never again to attempt such an act, the was discharged.
