House of Detection to .the effect that Jessemer had com-
mitted suicide this morning, being found banging quite
dead in his cell about t; o'clock on being visited by -one of
the warders.

It appears that Jammer was visited by one of his shop-
mates yeeterday, and seemed in a desponding state, saying
that he should not live to undergo two months of his
punishment, and wishing his shopmste en expressive "good.

SOUTHWARK.
A WOMAN COMMITTED TO HARD LABOLII FOR ABBAOLTDIO
HLI HUABAND.

Mita Ilehtrton, b asbroughta disslpa74;ll- °Oa; woman, w
before Mr. Woolrych, charged with committing a violent
assault on her hoaband: Netherton.

The latter, a decent-looking mechanic, who exhibited
wound on the forehead, said he lived at No. 10, Gibson-
street, Waterloo-road, and worked in an adjoining fonodry.
On the previous night, when be arrived home from work,
his wife commenced abusing him, but wishing to avoid
quarrelling he went to bed. He, however, bad not laid
himself down more than two or three minutes before his
wife assaulted him in a brutal manner, tearing his shirt off,
and attempting to strike him with a poker. He got
up and took that from her, and endeavoured to quiet
her, but she made a rush at the clock, the only article of
value in the room, and attempted to smash that. He pre-
vented her from doing so, and was carrying it out of the
room for safety, when she seized up the broomstick and
struck him on the head, nearly stunning him. He got up
and gave her in custody of the police. and after-muds bad
the wound strapped up.
The prisoner then said she had been cruelly used by her
husband. He not only knocked her about, but he starved
' her, having left her without money for three weeks.
The husband was recalled, and in answer to Mr. Woolrycb
said that it was quite true he bad not trusted her with
mosey for the last two or three weeks, as he had good
reasons for that. Lest Saturday fortnight be gave her 16e.
out of his wages, and the same night she was picked up
drunk and brought to this court without a penny. Sim*
then he had purchased all the necessaries required in the
house, but as soon as his back was turned she disposed of
them for drink.

—The prisoner that, but admitted being drunk and
robbed of the money. That was no reason she should be
starved.

Mr. ooluch had no doubt she was a worthless woman,
and indeed of keeping her bustsuid's home decent and com-
fortable spent his wages in drink. He sentenced her to six
weeks' bard labour in Wandsworth House of Correction.
The prisoner, who seemed much astonished at the sea.
tepee, was removed by the gaoler.

MR. COX, M.P., AND THE MEETING AT
THE AGRICLMTVRAL BILL THIS EVENING.

TO TRI EDITOR OF THE REFRIES.

SlR,—Finding that Mr. Cox, one of the members
for the borough of Finsbury, is to address his constituents
at the Agricultural Hall this evening, I cannot help ex-
pressing a hope that some one present will demand an ex•
planation of the course punned last session by this
"liberal" representative towards Stansfeld—a course
which had the effect of driving from office and sacrificing on
the altar of the reactionary party one of the most useful
public servants of the time, and I may add, emphatically •
man of the people. Surely, sir, the great borough which
for so many yearn was represented in parliament by Mr.
Thomas Dunoombe can never endome the sham liberalism or
mischievous meddling of Mr. Cox.—l am, &c.,

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE AT BATH.—This city
leas for many days been in a state of great conversatioeal
excitement respecting the death of a labouring Iran named
White, whi..,l p,. 1/4 place at the Bath United Ilospiml sew
the ITtb of last month. An inquest was held on the fol.
lowing day, when it appeared from the evidence adduced
that death had minted from • blow in the eye given him by a
person whom he did not know. The few witnesses examined
cone:ming the jury as to their verdict, they, despite the
wieli of the coroner to adjourn the inquiry, determined on
deciding that manslaughter had been committed by some
person or perms unknown. Of course the matter then fell
into the hands of the police, and after a few days had
elapsed it was rumoured that the party concerned was one
holding a public position in the town. The affair not
being brought so quickly before the public as their inclina-
tions seemed to dictate, the mayor and others connected
with the bench received letters calling upon the police
authorities to act. During the interval Mr. Hughes, the
chief of police. was busily employed in getting up his
case, And last Wednesday Mr. J. W. England, inspector of
weighta and measures. and for • lengthened number of
years reporter and sub-editor of the Both
. brought before the magistrates on the charge of " felo-
niously killing and slaying one William White, on the
2:!nd of October last. Assiut the peace." Mr. Slack
defended the prisoner. After some evidence had been
taken, Mr. England was remanled and admitted to ball.
I Yesterday he was again brought up, and witnesses were
called who deposed that Mr. England had acknowledged
that being beast by a man on the night in question and
knocked down, he struck him with his umbrella. Mr.
Slack contended that this was not manslaughter, but •
majority of the magistrates decided on committing Mr.
England for trial. He was admitted to bail.
