A YOUNG MAN SnoT AT SKINBURNIeS.—John
Baty, nailor and fisherman, was charged at tho Court-
house, Carlisle, on Wednesday, the 12th inst., with having ,
shot William Gibson, a youth apparently about 17 year. 1
old, at Skinhumms.— William Gibson, who had to be assisted
into the witness-box, was then sworn. lie deposed—l am
• farm-servant in the Abbey Ilohne. I was at a marriage
.' merry making" at Skinburriess on the Bth ult. A party
of young persons were drinking at Forster Pt:mice's public- !
house; I was among the party. We left between eleven •
and twelve o'clock. When we got to the dour a young
fellow said ho had lost his neckerchief, and some one re-
marked that the prisoner had very likely got it—(he was !
drinking there also, but left before us.) I went with the
young fellow to the prisoner's house to ask for the necker-
chief,
and when about twelve yards from the door some
person threw a stone against it. The prisoner immediately
opened the door and fired directly at me with a gun. I
saw him lift the gun. It was quite light. Tho contents
entered my thighs. I think there was a great quantity of
shot in the gun. I fell almost iustantly, and became insen-
sible. I bled very muck—Another witness deposed that
the prisoner had threatened to shoot him immediately before
firing at Gibson, hut, on seeing prisoner point the gun at
him, he ran away.—The prisoner, in his defence, said he
had not shot Gibson intentionally.—The Bench committed
him for trial at the neat assizes.
POISONING NEAR WIaRECII.—Great excitement
has been caused in the neighbourhood of Wisbech by the
sudden death of Mrs. John Dearlove, the wife of an exten-
sive fanner, residing at Gorelield, near Wisbech. On
Thursday last Mrs. Dearlove, after sitting down to dinner,
ate a small piece of pudding, and immediately complained
of a burning sensation in her throat. In a short time she
was speechless and senseless, and had frequent vomitings.
Medical aid was at once sent fur, but it was unavailing,
and the unfo4unate lady died in about two hours alter
dinner time. Suspicion has fallen on a female servant in
the house. Mrs. Dearlore had been obliged to resort to
severe measures to get this person up in the morning. On
one occasion, it is said, she threw a basin full of water
over the girl in bed, and on Thursday morning she had
pulled the bedclothes off her ; and the girl hail been beard
to declare she would have her revenge. A pot in which
Mr. Dearlove kept arsenic for his seed wheat was suspended
in the barn by ropes, and it is supposed that some of the
contents have been abstracted and made use of for the pur-
pose of destroying life. The pudding remains as left by
Mrs. Dearlove, except that a small portion has been sent
away to be analysed. An inquest was held on the body on
Saturday, but adjourned until Wednesday next, when the
analysauon of the stomach will be adduced in evidence.
The girl remains in the house under surveillance, but not
in custody. She came from the neighbourhood of Fuken-
ham, in Norfolk.
A RELIC OF ANCIENT LIVERPOOL.—During the
operations of the gas company's men in Lord-street (the
Ipavement of which is being taken up), a rather interesting
relic was brought to light. This is no other than the old
bridge which spanned the peal between Paradise-street and
Whitechapel. Exactly before the door of Mr. Gilharn's
shop, at the corner of Whitechapel, at the depth of a few
fiat from the surface, may now be seen a portion of the
coping of tke summit of the arch of this old bridge, which,
doubtless, the oldest inhabitant never saw in its pristine
state.
