SUSPECTED MURDER NEAR THE SWIN-

FORD COPPER MILLS.

A very mysterious affair hes occurred near the
Swinford Copperworks, situate on the banks of the river
Avon, at about seven miles from Bristol, and an unusual
degree of excitement prevails concerning it throughout the
district with which they are connected. The body of a
woman of apparently about 25 years old has been taken out
of the river close to the mills, and, from circumstances con-
nected with the occurrence, there is too much reason for
suspecting that her death war the result of violence. In-
formation of the discovery was promptly conveyed to W. 7.
Ellis, Esq., who lost no time in holding an inquest, and
from the evidence adduced it appears that a workman
named James Thompson, in the employ of the copper com-
pany, bad oocuion on the Wednesday morning, at about
seven o'clock, to go to the mill head for the purpose of
1. drawing the pond." Ia putting down his rake for that
purpose he found some Lige and heavy substance which
was pressing heavily against the gates, and which it was
difficult to move. Having procured the assistance of a man
named George Shiff he succeeded in raising it, and found
that it was the body of a woman respectably deemed,
but without any shawl or bonnet, and heels;
a cap twisted tightly round her bead. At Set
would be seen that no particular suspicion was enter-
' tained, but soon afterwardans trapired that the body could
I H
only have been a few hours in the place where it use
found, while two cottages, named Sarah Bright and Ana
Shipp, at about Um o'clock on the previous evening; while
sitting in their renectinesttages, which are located by the
river, distinctly heard the cry of a woman in distress. It
was but • single cry, and then all wee silent again. The
suspicion which this circumstance induced was soon strength
used by an examination of the body made by Mr. Walter
Brown, surgeon, who discovered on .the crown of the heed
a wound penetrating to the skull. It was an irregular
wound, sad appeared to have been inflicted with a pointed
but blunt instrument, while of its having been given
during life and before the body got Into the water Mr.
Brown had not the slightest doubt. • From its situation, he
did not think that it could have been the result of accident,
but that it must have been the act. of some other
Upon the forehead was another but lea severe mark
of in-
jury. Agood deal of evidence was taken by the coroner
in the endeavour to clear up the mystery and to fix the
identity of the deceased. Some of the witnesses spoke to
the body as that of the wife of a corporal of
the 48th regiment, who having followed her hus-
band's company from Carmarthen, was sees on the
Tuesday evening at a village between Bristol and Beth
called Sanford, and at 11 o'clock the same night was proved
to have been drinking with some men at a beer-hone kept
by a person .named CHIN, in Crown-street, Bath. When
last seen alive she was attired in &respectable helmet, and
large plaid woollen shawl, and she had with her a puree
which she kept in her bosom, and in which it was noticed
that she had money, all of which, when the body wee
found, had disappeared. It further appeared that she bad
engaged a bed at a Lodging-bows, near the beer-house, at
which, however, she did not present herself. The removal
of the body, supposing the witnesses right as to she identity.
in the coarse of seven or eight hours, from Bath to Swiss-
ford Mills, a distance by the river of nine miles, could only
be accounted for upon the supposition that it wu e
there, as, besides the windings, eddies, and natural impedi-
ments of the river, whose bed is very uneven, it must, if it
had floated, have passed leeks and at least four weirs, which
is considered by those who know the locality impossible.
Supposing the witnesses to be mistaken, it seems probable
that the cry heard the night before from the river's bank,
near the mill, proceeded from the deceased immediately
before her death. The jury, by advice of the Coroner,
returned a simple verdict of " Found Dead," thus leaving
it open to the police to prosecute inquiry, which they are
diligently engaged in making.

Mr. Ronnuat.—Thera iv no foundation for the
rumour. which have been recently, we would hope Mao.
Untie and heedlessly, prevalentreepecting this gentleman.
Mr. Roebuck is now at Malvern, where Dr. Gully, the
well-known and eminent physician there, has given him
reason to hope for an early restoration of health, so as to
enable him to renew his able services in parliament to this
borough and to his country. We b.lievo that Mr. Roe-
buck has no intention whatever to resign ; and that, on the
contrary, he hopes to return to hie place in parliament with
renewed vigour, where we trust he may yet do much of
that good service which still remains due from him to his
country.—Shejfickl Timis.

We continue our report of the proceedings of Saturday
ia-thx reel
Mr. Ss rjeant Wilkins, having gone through the evi-
deco:, concluded nearly in these word*. You have
be, my lords, a man admitted by his own counsel
t„, be, in reality, upon his trial; a man who, if the
senile% of thee iury be woith anything, has, at least in
ca. „waste, een coavieted of stating, upon his oath, that
which is entree ; a man who, in every plata into which he
kis gone, has br. .he object of inquiry or accesation ; a man
whop found guilty, upon his own confession, and punished
by the Court of the inquisition, and yet cannot explain
what the charge was; a man having the strongest possible
motive to screen himself from the emulations male
aqsinit him by the defendant. Have I not a right, then, to
ay that it is miustruus, that it is shocking to cast upon a
lame body of witnesses—who came here in violation of
their own feelings—to tut upon those, to whose assistance
I an indebted for thus being able to bring before your lord-
ships them facts—the imputation of committing, and of
,b,ociing witnesses to commit, perjury upon the testimony
of this man alone? As to the act of parliament to which
reference hes been made, I trust your lordships will not
glow any technicalities to stand in the way of substantial
justice. This court has hitherto been popular in the coun-
try from the steadfast manner in which your lordships have
at your faces against allowing justiee to be defeated by
mere technical points. And, under all the circumstances of
the case, I submit that complete iustice—even to the very
witnesses now branded with the infamy of being perjure/
—demands that this case should again be sent before a jury.
The learned serjeant then apologised for the great length at
which he had felt himself constrained to address their
lordships.
Lord Campbell s vid that no apology whatever was re-
quired from the learned counsel.
Mr. Addison followed. He applied himself wholly to
the technical question as to what was the effect of the plea
of justification put in by the defendant, sad whether it
could be taken distributively. The leaned gentleman's
speech, though ell'ibiting great ingenuity, would be quite
uninteresting except to professimial readers.
Mr. liaddeley then addreeeed the court. He said the
animus of this case was proved by the manner in which
these proceedings had been brought. It had been made a
hardship upon the ether side that the prosecutor was in
fact the accused party here ; but the form of procedure had
bees chain by Dr. Achilli himself. If the vindication of
his character had beta the only object, he might equally
well have attained tbat object by twinging an action for
damages; he had, however, filed a criminal information,
because if he could only get Dr. Newman fined ever so
lightly, he (Achill') would tall it a vindication of his cha-
ncier; whereas if in an action he wily got nominal da-
mages, he would not be able to put the matter before the
world to so favourable a light. There was,in the next
place. to be considered the quietism of the ronstruction of
the act of parliament, giving the court the author-
ity to look to the evidence in coesidering the
redeem their lordships might pew ape Dr. Newman.
fu F. Kelly bad likeasill this case to • trial of Dr. A.ehilli.
Take it so, and suppose that the Joey had found him guilty

was sot guilty. What, thee, could their lordships have
elm ? They mild aot have ignored that verdict;; to do
pieties, aam Mal must have been gmated. Beppose in
this cam sow before them, epos the court being abom
per sesissee, he (Mt. Baddeley), as the defeatism's aim-
esl, got up sad said that the charges made by Dr. Newman
were proved. The coast would then say, and properly,
that the jay bad found it otherwise, end that they ;mild
not go against that lading. A new trial, thanks", ought

SHILMELD, SATURDAT.—The explosion in Earl
Fitzwilliase's colliery at Blaecar, which occurred on the 2!ad
ult., and resulted is the death of tan minas, has beta fol-
lowed by another coalpit accident in this district of a truly
calamitou nature. It occurred on Friday last at the new
Cattails coelpit belonging to Messrs. Appleby, of the Reni-
shaw iron works, in the vicinity of the Rekington station,
on the Midland Railway, seven miles south of Sheffield.
At seven o'clock in the morning • party of seven miners pre-
pared to descend the shaft together in order to commence
their day's work. They had not descended more
than fifteen or twenty fest when the eorf In which
they were standing became detached from the wire rope,
and all the men fell headlong to the bottom of the shaft
with terrific velocity. One load cry of hororr ascended, and
seven human beings had perished by a fearful death. Their
names were John and Charles Oresves, of Barlborough,
John Barton, Robert Robinson, and Thomas Waterhouse,
of Staveley, Richard Bright, and John Naylor. The caul*
of the disaster was the snapping of an iron ring that con-
nected the wire rope with the chain is which the corf
rested. All the seven men were found to be killed wits the
exeeptiou of Barton, who ones or twice exhibited some slight
ssyymmptoms of animation. The extraordinary occurrence will
doubtless be followed by a rigid investigation. The cala-
mity has occasioned a profound sensation for soma miles
around the scene of the occurrence.

BRISTOL, SATURDST.—Another of those fatal acci-
dents at collieries, which unhappily have become of much
too frequent occurrence of lite, took place last night, at
about ten o'clock, at the Shortwood Colliery, Mangoudield,
about six miles distant from this city. The Bhortwood
Colliery is worked by Messrs. Wethered, Cosaham, and Co.,
and the ascent and descent of its shaft is made by means of
a cart of wood capable of holding four persons, which is
worked by means of a drawing engine, and is steadied in
its progress by a guide on either aide of the shaft. At the
hour before named, which is the usual time for the night
men to descend to their labour in the pit, three men, named
Samuel Bennett, aged 33, Samuel Bryant, aged 38, Isaac
James, aged 32, and a boy named Gingzell, aged 16, got
into the cart, and having given the usual signal, the
enema= began to lower them down the shaft. After
they had proceeded about thirty yards on the journey, 1
the waging by some meant, either the breaking of some
teeth In the cogwheel, an insufkient supply of steam or
some other cause, suddenly lost its control of the cart,
which immediately ran down at a tremendous rate to the
bottom of the shaft—a depth, in all, of some 230 or 240
yards. Immediately upon the occurrence of the accident an
alarm was given, and all hands present set to work to get out
the unhappy men, wln it was at once apparent must hale
received extensive if not fatal injuries. Owing to the engine
having been disabled the getting up of the poor fellows bo-
om, a work of some time. A windlass had to be erected,
aad It mew* until between 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning
that they could be sztricated. They were all alive, but
dreadfully injured. James was carried off by his friends to
his own house, and messengers at once despatched for medi-
cal aid, but the others were brought with all possible de-1
@patch to the Bristol Royal Infirmary. Mr. Bore, the acci-
dentl
medical Aker, was instantly in attendance
upon them, and did what hi Gould, bet gave
