with • loot knife, inflicting a serious wound.
The wounded man was taken to the Londoo
Hospital, and he was not expected to recover. Mr. Hello.
way then put in the following medical certificate :
" John de Leon, who waa admitted here last night with •
punctured wound in the abdomen, is In • procanous way.
I think it would be adviiable to take his evidence as soon ea
fosaible.—R. T. Jose, surgeon, London Hospital, Sept. 22,
1864."
Mr. Partridge—Are there any witnesses ?
Mr. Holloway—Yea, air, several.
Mr. Partridge directed that the prisoner should be at
once taken to the London Hospital, and he would proceed
there as moo as possible, and receive the deposition of the
wounded man.

The adamant of Leon and the evidence of Mitchell,
of 187, Ratcliffe-highway, seaman, Riant Van do Malin,
waiter at the Rae and Crown, and Murphy, • clothier,
made out a stso•g awe against the prisoner, who was re.
mended for • week.

Leon's recovery is very doubtful. He appeared to be in a
sinking condition, and with difficulty gave hie evidanoe
through the medium of an interpetrer.

NON.VACCINATION OP CHILDREN AND UN-
QUALIFIED PRACTITIONERS.

SPECIAL VERDICT.
An inquiry was held by Hr. Richards, deputy-
coroner, Let evening at the Globe tavern, High-street,
Shadwell, respecting the death of Ann 31'Carthy. aged 13
years, whose rife was lost under the following circumstances :
The deoe•sad was the daughter of a shoemaker, residing
at No. 237, High-street, Shadwell. The child was never
vaccinated, and • fortnight back it was seised with
smallpox. The mother, Ellen /CCartliy. took
It to • chemist, who, the mother said, treated
it for measles. Death ensued on Sunday Lest,
Dr. D. Ross said that the drowsed died from well-
developed smallpox. In all probability the child would now
be alive if it had been vaccinated, or, when it got the small-
pox through the neglect of that precaution, if it had been
taken to a qualified medical man. At present there was
pest infantile mortality in the metropolis. Parente take
their children to chemist', who treat them until they are
dying, and then only the doctor is called in and he can do
nothing.

The doroner having gummed up,
Th. jar! returned a verdict, ' That the dammed child,
not being vaccin►ted, died from etnallpoz, and the jury caw•
are the pareete for not having canoed the demised to be
vaccinated in socordanoe with the terms of the act of parlia-
ment, and &leo for sot having taken the demand when ill to
• doctor tasted of to a chamsd."

HENDON FAIR AND RACES.—(THIS DAY. )—The.4e
amusements which are given on a large area of ground is the
rear of the Welsh Harp Tavern (until lately Sam Collins's),
between Hendon and Willesden, commenced this morning.
The company in attendance was unusually select, as • fee of
sixpence is paid by each person for admission to the grounds
in which the hippodrome is held. The programme for the
day exhibited a variety of amusements, including horse and
pony racing and steeple chariot.
DELI;O IMO RA IN. —(THIS DAY.)—This MOTO 111 the
metropolis and suburbs were visited by • storm of bail and
rain which fell in torrents from hall-past 8 to half-put 5
o'clock. During its continuance the carriage ways, and in
several places the foot pavements were overflowed, sod in the
suburbs the surface of macadamised roads was washed away.
MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT BLACHIPREARS-
REIDOL—As in cry was held by Mr. Richards, deputy
coroner, at the Lamb Tavern, Ratchffe, last night, respect-
leg the death of John J. Moore, aged nine years, who lost
his life tinder the following oireurostuom The father of
the deceased bey was • boiler maker, and was at work on a
stage under one of the piers of old Blackfriars-bridge,
and the deceased came there to see him. By some
means the deceased fell off the stage while playing about.
The father did not miss him but saw him without recogni-
sing him, being carried down by the current and struggling
frantically in the water. He was carried down by the tide
and drowned, sad his body was found floating on Tuesday
sight off Stone stairs, Ratcliffe, by the Thames police. The
jury returned • verdict of " Aosidental Death."
THE MURDER OF MR. BRIGGS. —Yesterday morn-
ing a communication was forwarded from the office of Mr.
John Humphreys, the coroner for Middlesex, to Sir George
Grey, the Secretary of State for the Home Depertment, to
secure the attendance of Muller et the adjourned inquest
on Monday morning next, at the towa.hall, Church-street,
St. John, Hackney, and it is fully expected that the request
will be granted. The inquiry will be resumed at 8 o'clock
in the morning, sad Mr. thanes Beard, of Basingliall-
street, will be present as the legal advisory of Muller. who
will be brought from the House of Detention at Clerkeowell-
green, in the custody of Inspector Tanner and other detective
often'. A body of police from the Hackney station will
be present to preserve order and keep back the crowd, which
will no doubt be waiting to catch a glimpse of the prisoner
! as he puns from the alb into the town-hall. A number of
important 'Rouges have been summoned by the officer of
the overt, and from what can be gleaned, thin important
inquiry will be concluded on the day in question. Since the
Prisoner was remanded by Mu magistrate on Monday
last at Bowetreet police-court he has taken his meals
regularly, and two officers have been placed in charge of him
night and day. Muller still protests his innocence, but has
been somewhat low spirited during the past three days.
DEATH PROM INCAUTIOUS BATHINO.—MT. Robert
Colemeir, • grocer and provision dealer of Aylesbury, went
to Brighton for the benefit of his health, and after bathing
owe or twice in the open ma went on Friday to Brill's
Swimming Bath. He had cot been long in the water when
he was seen to go node', but the bathers oear thought he
was diving. and did not interfere till one of them " saw his
heeds go up." Mr. Colemeir was then taken to the side of
the bath, and was sensible enough to grasp the hand-rope
when told to do so. The bath attendant was
absent at the particular time, and although hear.
lug the shouts for usiriance, thought it was only the
usual " larking" which bathers generally practise when
in the bath in parties. Some Ere minutes thus elapsed
before measures for restoration was adopted. When taken
to • room Mr. Colemeir was insensible, but under the treat-
ment of Mr. Tatham, surgeon, recovered sufficiently to
converse, and was removed to his hotel. Here, although
the additional assistance of Drs. Ormerod and Carter was
obtained, the unfortunate man died in an hour or two.
An inquest was held before the Brighton borough coroner
on Saturday. A post mortem examination showed the
lungs to be much congested and the heart extensively
diseased, rendering that organ unable to rally from
the shook to which it had bees subjected. The
jury returned a verdict in accordance with the medical
evidence, and suggested the continual presence of an
attendant in the bath. Another case is reported at
Brighton, in which on Thursday a young lady entered the
sea, and was taken out again in the Ant stage of apoplexy.
She, however, recovered.

GALLANT' RESCUE BY A YOUNG LADY. —A young
lady, named Miss Fanny Churchyard, very pliantly rescued
from drowning Min MAry Pritchard, of Absegavenny, who
on Monday but was bathing on the Plymouth Hoe. Miss
Pritchard wee fast being carried out to sea by the tide,
when Mir Churchyard plunged into the water, without
waiting to divest herself of any clothing, and brought her
safe oa shore. This is the third life this young woman has
saved during the preempt rummer.
OUTRAGE ON LADILS. —The Dutuiee Advertiser
publishes a correspoadenee that has taken place between' Sir
John S. Richardson, of Pitfour Castle, and Messrs. Patullo
and Thornton, respecting an outrage committed on three
young ladies at a bazaar recently held at Pitlochry. From •
narrative of the cue given in the Advertiser, it appears that
the ladies, who are members of respectable families in Dundee
and Perth, paid a visit to the bazaar, and made several pur-
chases. Whiledoing so, a cry that there were pick pockets in the
place waa raised, and those present examined their pockets to
see whether they bad been picked. Shortly afterwards the
three ladies alluded to went out, and after walking about
for some time, returned, when they were apprehended. and
taken, notwithstanding their protests, to a small test adjoin-
iag, where their outer garments were searched, Dot se this re-
sulted in the discovery of nothing tbat could lead to A.JaviC-
tion, the ladies were taken to the policeetstion in charge of
three policemen. Between the bazaar and the station the
ladies ware treated se if there was no doubt of their being re-
gular piokpockenasod on arriving at the station they were
oompelled to strip themselves in the presence of • police-
man's wife, who:searched everything they bad on. It was
only after this that the policemen became satisfied of their'
mistake, and liberated the ladies. Messrs. Patella and
?borates, were employed as agents for one of the young
ladies, and in this capacity they addressed a letter to Sir
John 12 ichardeoe—who, it was alleged, had caused the ap-
prehension of the ladies—calling upon him to make due
apology and ample reparation to their clients. Sir John
emphatically denies, in the correepoodeoce, having ever
interfered in the matter, or been in anyway responsible for
it. and feeling aggrieved at being charged with an offence,
with which he ears he had nothing whatever to do, hi hes
published the correspondence.
