At the Liverpool Coroner'. Court, yesterday, an investi-
gation was held into the circumstances connected with
the death of a child, ten yearn of age, named Browalow,
who, it wee ►lleged, had died from injuries received at
the hands of a Miss Bailee, a teacher in the Welsh "Away
Schools. It was proved that Mims Sullen frequestly
struck the deceased on the heal with a book, and some-
time* with a stick used for pointing at maps. On Tues-
day else struck the deceased on the bead with a book, aed
the child, on going home, complained to her parents, sod
became so ill that she died next day. A surgeon, who
made a post-mortem examination of the head of the de-
ceased, used that her death might be attributable either to
violence or to natural causes. The jury returned a verdict
of " Died from natural causes," with a censure on Mir
Sallee. The coroner said that Miss Sullen had had a very
narrow escape of being committed for manslaughter, and he
traded that what bad occurred would be a limos to her for
the remaiader of her life.

R DER AND ArrEurrED SE 14 'I DE. —A young
woman, named Ann Lesson, was murdered at Buslriegbeas,
as Saturday evening, by a young man named William
Stevens. It seems that Stevens had been paying his 2d-
, dresses to the girl, but that his suit bed been steadfastly
rejected. On Saturday evening Leeson left her master'e
house to fetch water from • pump. On her way she
called at her mother's house, and seeing or hearing
something of Stevens she remarked to her sister that she
must go, for she did not wish Stevens to see her. Her
sister watched her up the passage. and then observed
Stevens looking out of his father's doer in the direction
the girl had goes. Stevens must have remained in the
passage and watched her return from the pump, and be-
tween that place and her master's house the fatal deed was
done. He met her when she was within • dozen yards of
her master's house and indicted two dreadful gashes in
her throat. The girt had just strength enough left to
• rush into her mester's arms as he was standing at the door,
and immediately died. It would appear that Stevens after
he had killed his victim made a determined attempt on his
own life by cutting his throat. Afterwards be st
tack to the peerage leading to hie own home, where he ell,
and his moans soon brought some persons to his aid. His
recovery is considered very doubtful.
Curse. CASE or Ainurerion.—At the Hii4o .seizes
on Monday, before Benin Hughes., James Brea Jobs
Mansion, and Thomas Brogan were indicted for having, ea
the 19th of August last, at Springhill, in the county of Sligo.
feloniously abducted Bosom Moran, and carried her away,
for the purpose of having •• felonious assault committed
on her by one Patrick Memoirs'. The jury found the pri-
I boners Brim- and Mansion guilty, and his lordship,
• in rimiest sentence, commented severely on the dee
tardly sad unmanly act of • number of young men
seizing an innocent girl in the dead of sight to
have her ruin accomplished by another. They were me-
Wined to four years' penal servitude. The principal in the
outrage, at whose instigation those above mestioeed acted,
wail on Saturday covedemeed to penal servitude for life.
• The victim of his brutality, a young handsome girl of re-
spectable appearance, presented • pitiable specta:le when
brought on the table to give her evidence. Her health
seemed completely ruined, and she wee in such a state of
prostration, that it was only be the repeated administra-
tins of stimnlante that she could be kept from feinting
while telling her sad story.
DELT!! BY SUFFOCATION. —A very sad occurrence
happened in the Idea, Gloucester. on Monday night. Mr.
sod Mrs. Gough, two old and respected citizens, went to
bed about 9 o'clock. the latter currying upstairs about half
• bucketful of glowing cinders, just stirred from the grate,
which she placed in the bedroom to warm it. The mom
was small, and possessed scarcely any means of ventilation.
Every breath of fresh air, so healthful to a sleeper, had been
jealously excluded—the chimney aperture was closed with
a board, the windows fitted tightly, and the door was
locked. On the following morning, the house remaining
closed long beyond the usual time, the neighbours, be-
coining alarmed for the safety of the inmates. b.oke in, ma
Mr. and Mrs. Gough were fazed in a stets of insensibility,
the latter apparently dying. Medical Resistance was ofs-
- but Mrs. Gough died about 4 o'clock in the after-
boos. Her husband, we are glad to learn, is slowly re-
covering. but the death of his wife, to whom he was greatly
attached, has caused such • shock to his already greatly
debilitated system, that considerable time must elapse before
he will have recovered. An inquest was held by Mr. .1.
Lovegroveon Wednesday, when the jury returned a verdict
of Accidental death."—Clouerefrr Journal.
