LLEWELLEN GARRET TALMAGE HARVEY was in •
dicted at Exeter on Monday for the wilful murder of
Mary Richards, at Little Torrington, on the 18th of
May lash The facts of the murder were published
shortly after it occurred. The victim was a glove -
maker, who was found dead in a lonely road with
marks of brutal violence on her person, and her
pockets and basket rifled, Prisoner, who was a chilli-
neysweep, had been noticed following het when she
was last seen alive, and afterwards was proved to
have been in the possession of money, and for whieh
he gave no true account, and articles resembling
those missed from the body of the deceased were
traced to his keeping. He had also shaved off his
whiskers, and otherwise sought to disguise his pro-
ceedings. The case lasted two days and ended iu a
verdict of Guilty, after which sentence of death was
pronounced upon the culprit.
A Ynuso 'WOMAN NAMED HILL, who Was living as
housekeeper with a farmer near Brigg, was riding
somewhat carelessly on a pony to market, when she
passed the dour of a farmhouse in which a Mr.
roster resided. Foster was in his garden and play •
fully threw a rhubarb stalk at her. The stalk struck
the pony, and, the animal starting, its rider was
thrown off into the road. No serious harm was at
the time apprehended, but subsequently it was found
that her spine was much injured, and after much
suffering for many months she is pronounced a
cripple for life. An action for damages was brought
against Foster, and tried on Tuesday at Lincoln.
The jury awarded 600/.
HENRY EYRE, who was charged with stealing a
bank post-bill for NW., and forging an endors=ement
to it, was on Wednesday re-examined at the Liverpool
Police-Com t, and committed for trial. It was proved
that the bill in question had been sent from Messrs.
Grindley and Co., of Liverpool, to a Mr. Paul at
Dundee, but it did not reach its destination. It was
traced to the possession of the prisoner, who ob-
tained cash for it. at a bank in the town, he having
, previously forged Mr. Paul's endorsement.
JOHN CHALLIS, an old man about sixty years of
age, dressed in the pastoral garb of a shepherdess of
the golden age, and George Campbell, aged about
thirty-five years, who described himself as a lawyer,
and appeared equally equipped in female attire of
the present day, were charged at Guildhall on Wed-
nesday with being found disguised as women in the
Druids'-hall in Turnagain-lane, an unlicensed
dancing-room. The conduct of the two prisoners
was shown to have been very indecent and disorderly,
and both were remanded, bail being refused in the
case of Campbell, against whom some suspicion of
having committed felony arose in the course of She
proceedings.
