was &ileum to lib. He has been under my care ever
since. He has gone on, on tke whole, very favourably,
but suppuration will take place, and at present I cannot con.
alder him quite out of danger; but the great probability is,
that he will completely recover. He may be well enough in
a week, but I would not like to say that he can be safely
brought up in less than a fortnight. Cowexuaised: When
I speak of danger, I masa the possible consigniec• of the
wound may be fatal. Tke wound is dangerous to life, but it
did not produce any Wary to a part that was vital. Death
might follow such a wound, without being preceded by
erysipelas. It might be caused by the irritation arising from
such a wound, without erysipelas, in two or three days. If
the patient had been of en anxious temperament, he would
not have gone on so fevonrably as he has.—The Lord Mayor
Do you consider that Mr. Crawley may with safety be re-
moved from the hospital before the 20th of September ?
Witness : I do.—The prisoner, who did not utter a word,
was then remanded.
GUILDHALL..

SUICIDR ST AN ARTIST.

J. Wilms, en artist in weter colours, was re-examined,
charged with attempting to destroy himself. The case
ap-
peared in our paper of Thursday, when it seemed that the
prisoner had lately separated from his wife, and this led to
his conduct. It was understood that a reconciliation had
been effected, and the parties left the court.
BOW-STREET.—Tna CATASTROPHE ON THE RIVER.
—J. Edward, who had been stoker on board the Cricket
steamer, which was blown up yesterday, waited on Mr.
Jardine, to request his interference to prevent any portion
of the engine of that vessel being removed. For the parti-
culars we refer our reader, to our report of the accident, at
the close of which we give a report of this application.
MURDEROUS Assort LT.- Casey, an inmate of St.
workhouse, was charged with assaulting C. Wrench.—
T. Williams, an inmate, stated that on Thursday evening he
was with a dozen others, when the prisoner laid hold of
Wrench by the hair with his right hand ; he bent his head
aside' and drew the knife produced across his throat in the
mat deliberate manner, a great quantity of blood haring
immediately flowed from the wound he inflicted. Witness,
with amistance, secured him. There were no angry words
occurred before he made the attack.—Mr. W. L. Dudley,
the house surgeon, said that in examining the wound he
found it about six inches in length, and of a dangerous cha-
racter, there being several small vessels injured. He
thought it would be • week at least before the man could
attend to give evidence.—ln answer to the magistrate the
master of the workhouse said that the prisoner was only a
casual pauper, and in the house since the 18th inst. He
appeared very sullen, and spent the greater part of his time
praying.—The prisoner, being called on for his defence,
said that the witness Williams and other fellows were con-
stantly knocking and kicking him in order to prevent him
saying his prayers.—The prisoner was ordered to be re-
mended for a week.
CLERICENWELL.—Csancie or Formerly.— William
Tombling was finally examined upon several charges of
uttering forged cheques upon bankers. Two cases werepre
ferret by Mr. Smith, the landlord of the White Lion
Tavern, Edgware-road, whose eon stated that the prisoner
came to him with a cheque for 201., which be said Mr. Bir-
mingham, who was well known to Mr. Smith, had requested
him to cash for him. Witness, in the absence of his father,
did so, and the cheque was subsequently ascertained to be a
forgery. Previous, however, to this fact being found out,
the prisoner called again, and presented a cheque purporting
to be drawn by B. B. Cabbell, which the witness esrhed for
him, and paid over the same day to Mr. Thomas John
Bolton, the landlord of the Earl of Louder, Tavern, Not-
ting-hill, who paid it, with several others, into his bankers,
Sir John Lubbock and Co., where it was found also to be a
forgery.—The prisoner, who declined to make any defence at
present, was then committed to take his trial on three sepa-
rate charges of forging and uttering.
