The character of to-day's proceedings is much the
same as that of yesterday. There is the same
amount of bustle. The clam of persons on the
ground is of the same description, the price of ad-
mission being still half-a-crown. There is the same
anxiety to procure chairs near the horse-ring, in
order to see the horses with comfort. But to-
morrow, if the weather continues fine, will be the
great popular day, and vast are the preparations
which are being made to meet the wants of the
many thousands who are expected.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARDS AGAINST A
MARRIED WOMAN.-SPECIAL VERDICT.

DiQUEST.—(THIS DAY.)
This morning Mr. John Humphreys, Middlesex
coroner, resumed, at the Three Cape Tswana, High-street,
Bow, to inquiry, respecting the death of • newly born
female child, which had bees thrown away by order of the
mother, a married woman.
Dr. Henry Hance said that on last Sunday week he was
called in to attend Mrs. Qoldworthy. She was delivered of
a female child of between Ave tad six months. The child
was born dead. No certificate was asked for. The mother
asked wither, „What is to he does with this." Witness
said, "Thu is a minarriage—l do not suppose • certi-
ficate ia asesseary. Dig a hole two feet deep in the
garden." Witness did rot think it was wrong
to make each a remark on the matter. It was a common
practice for medial men to let the bodies of still-born
children be buried in back gardens.
The Coroner said that the practice was a most dangerous
out If the bodies of stillborn children were allowed to
be buried in the back gardens of the houses in the metro-
polis, great facilities would be given for the commission of
the crime of infanticide.

Mrs. Donahue was then called, and having been cautioned
by the (wooer, deposed that her real name was Charlotte
Harvey, and that she resided at No. 5, Thontas•strest,
Stepney. She was a person living on her mato& She was
not a nurse. She attended Mrs. Goldsworthy as a friend.
The deceased was at first buried is the garden. On
Tuesday the rata came about the garden, and
I landlord of the hones in which Mts. Goldsworthy
lived said that the body " must be dug op."
The body was taken up on the following Thursday. A
consultation was held in order to ascertain what was to
be done with the body. Mrs. Goldworthy said to witness
" Drop it in the canal." Wittman bad never dose such a
thing before, but she did pot think that it was wrong.
Wit-
wr was afraid to drop it is the canal. Skis deposited the
box ma the grass by the aided the canal, in order that the'
body might's° wombed away by the morning tide. There
was nothing wring in that.
A Juror—Nothing wrong! Perhaps not is Calcutta, but
it certainly is in England.
The Coroner said that the ooroom's court could not prose-
cute in such a case. That was a duty for the polies.
Dr. Hume said that the medical protessioo wilted par-
ticularly to know if stillborn children required oirtifimites.
The coroner, having summed up, the jury, after a long
deliberation, returned the following verdict :—" That the
doomed child was found dead in a certain box, and the
jurors say that the said child was stillborn. and the said
jurors further say that ie their opinion great blame attaches
to the medical man in thin case, as to his not beefing given
a certificate the whole of this unfortunate occurrence
is due." _ _

Dr. Hence rid that, attar that verdict, the medical pre-
tension would know what to do in the ow of still-bora
children.

The proceedings thew terminated.
As Mrs. Charlotte Harvey was leaving the cancer's
court, she was arrested by Sergeant George Atkins, 463 K,
on the charge of " exposiog the dead body of a
°Natalia female child M a certain public place by the side of
the Regent's Oanal, to the danger of the public health."
She was instantly removed to the Bow police-station,
where she was charged with the above offence. The pri-
mmer seemed to feel her position acutely.
