BERNARD, the refugee charged with conspiring to
assassinate the Emperor of the French, was re-
examined on Tuesday at Bow-street. Some impor-
tant evidence, tending to connect him with the Orsini
gang, was brought to light. A M. Outrequin, a
friend of Bernard, deposed that in last December
a Mr. Allsop arrived in Paris, bringing to him a
letter of introduction from Bernard. This Allsop
turned out to be Orsini, who was travelling with
Allsop's passport. Shortly after this Mr. Allsop's
arrival, Outrequin received another letter from B,r-
nerd, stating that he was about to send over to his
(Outrequin's) care some " magnificent revolvers "
for Allsop, who would call for them. The pistols,
packed in a box wrapped in oilcloth, duly arrived,
and Allsop called and took away one, while Pierri
called and took away the other. The box and oil-
cloth found in Paris were then produced in court, and
identified both by M. Outrequin and King, the book-
ing clerk at the railway•oifice, Quadrant. Evidence
was given that the passport found on Orsini had
been originally issued to Allsop, and M. Bernard was
then remanded for a week.
EDWARD TRUELOVE, a publisher at 240, Strand,
was brought up on Monday, charged with publishing
a pamphlet on " Tyrannicide." A remand was
applied for, and bail being given in two sureties of
40/. and his own recognisance in 1001., the prisoner
was set at liberty.
ALFRED FEIST, late master of Newington Work-
house, charged on sixty-four counts for having dis-
posed to his own profit of the bodies of paupers for
dissection, was tried at the Central Criminal Court
on Wednesday, and found guilty of the sth, 6th, and
TA counts of the indictment. A verdict of "Guilty "
was then recorded, but no sentence was passed, and
the defendant was allowed to be at large upon his
procuring sureties to appear and receive judgment in
case the questions of law that are reserved should
be decided against him.
Mn. RADCLIFFE WILSON, Town Clerk of Stockton,
destroyed himself a fow days since. He had been in
a desponding state for many weeks past, but no evi-
dence was adduced at the inquest on Wednesday to
account further for the act.
MR. HENRY EDWARD LEGGE, late Paymaster of
the 2nd Regiment of the West Surrey Militia, was
tried on Thursday for the embezzlement of 1,300/.,
public moneys received for the service of the corps.
The evidence for the prosecution failed so entirely to
prove the intention to defraud, the jury without hesi-
tation returned a verdict of " Not Guilty," and the
prisoner was at once set at liberty.
JACOB SKELTON, labourer, charged with the mur-
der at Hayton on Christina+ day last of his father-
in-law, one Irwin, was tried at Carlisle on Wednes-
day and acquitted, the evidence, as Mr. Baron
Martin observed, amounting to "suspicion" only.

and inhabited by, foreign prostitutes. On Wednes-
day morning at five o'clock the foreigner left the
house, the servant letting him out, and noticing
