EXTRAORDINARY DEATH OP A YOUNG WOMAN
IN THE THAMES AT BLACKMAILS.

An inquiry Was held by Mr. H. Rallies Waltbew,
the deputy coroner, at the George and Dragon Tavern,
Highetreet. Shadwell. late yesterday. respecting the death
of Hannah Brooks, aged 18 years, who last her life at Paul's
Wharf-pier, on Friday week, under the following circum-
stances

Mrs. Hannah Brooks, Bridge-street. Blackfriam, said that
deceased was her daughter, and for the last twelve months
had lived with John Archer, a lighterman'a apprentice, as
his wife. They lived happily until three mouths ago, when
Archer became jealous of her. It appeared that deceased
met a young man named Sandford, and a girl named
Elizabeth Legge. Sandford invited her to take a glass
of ale, and while she was partaking of it she
saw Archer looking at her through the window in a manner'
which caused her to become dreadfully alarmlid. She ran
home to No. 134, Broadwall, Bbickfriar• Archer followed
her, and said to her three times, "Is that you r He then
knocked her down and beat her cruelly. She got up and ran
out, as she afterwards said to make away with herself, but
her landlord, Mr. Fallen, followed and prevented her. Archer
said that he was determined to have no more to do with her,
and that she should either gointo service or to the workhouse.
About a fortnight before her death he beat her during the
night on board the barge on the river. On last Friday
week deceased came to witness and said that she had pro-
cured continuous employment, which would enable her to
separate from Archer, and so end her misery,
and that she saw her way to be happy again. It was
then ten o'clock at night ; witness saw her no more.
The next morning Archer Galled upon witness, and said
that at 12 o'clock on the previous night deceased had
drowned herself at Paul's-wharf-pier. He stated that she
asked to go on board the barge he was minding, and
that he refused as the barge was not his. She then
got over the iron gates at the pier, and rid, " You
shall see me no more." She looked up and down
' the river, and then ran along the dummy barge,
stooped under the 'chain, and plunged into the
water. He jumped in after her, and she caught him by
the coat. He swam with his right hand, but finding
that she was being sucked in under • barge, he was ,
obliged to let her go. Witness received information'
the same afternoon that • boy had seen Archer
beat deceased on the wharf in the middle of the
' night in question, and that she reproached him
for the black eyes and other injuries he had inflicted on her
on previous occasions. Quarre "ng and cries were heard.
Witness stated that deceased had been compelled by in-
juries received through Archer's kicking her to wear • truss ;
but that she was so devoted to him that, when witness en-
deavoured to get her to part from him, she said that the
injuries arose only through lifting weights.
Wm. Turner said that last Monday morning he found the
body of the deceased floating in the river off Bell Wharf-
pier, Lower Shadwell. He got the body ashore, and gave
information of the affair to Mr. Hann, the coroner's officer.
James Hurley, a little boy, said that he was a "Jack-in.
the-water." (Laughter.) He went of messages, die. On
last Friday week he was minding a barge on the river, and
he noticed • man and • woman come down the pier quarrel-
ling, but he could not hear what they said. She put up
her hand to protect herself from him, and caught his bat.
He saw no more that was like a blow, the night being
very dark. lie saw deceased jump into the water.
By the Jury—Witness had seen but had not spoken to
Amber before the assembling of the court. Archer was not
standing by the side of deceased when she jumped in.
Archer did not throw her into the water or push her in.
Archer was rescued by the captain of • neighbouring barge,
and said at first that he did know why she bad
plunged Into the water, but afterwards he stated that
be had caught her with • young man, and that as he
(Archer)would not forgive her she committed suicide.
Dr. J. Brown Bass said that there were considerable
marks of violence on the head of deceased. Death, however,
resulted from immersion in the water.

The Coroner said that he should adjourn the court for the
production of further evidence, and he considered that
in the meanwhile the police ought to interfere and detain
the man.

proceedings, which were very protracted, were then
accordingly adjourned.

ABERYSTWITH AND WEST COAST RAILWAY.

(THIS DAY.)
An extraordinary general meeting of shareholders
was held to-day, at the offices, No.I 9a, Bridge-street,
IWestminster, to authorise the borrowing on mortgage or
debenture bond of a atun not exceeding 133,000 f.
under the powers of the Aberyatwith and Welsh
Coast Railway Act of 1861. Mr. WHALLXY, M.P.,
presided, and submitted • resolution in accordance
with the object of the meeting, explaining that
the directors had delayed asking for the proposed authority
until 200,0001., or one-half of the entire capital, had been
actually exneuded. The money now promised to be
raised would be raised from time to time as re-
quired. He wee happy to state that nothing could be
, more satisfactory than the progress of the works
of the line, both as regards rapidity of execution and the
character of the works themselves. There was reason to
believe that the line would be opened early next year to
Aberystwith, which was that portion of the line which was
expected to be most directly remunerative, and the north-
ern branch of the line to Barmouth, they were informed,
would also be open in the course of the ensuing year.
Captain JOHNB seconded the motion, and from personal
observation confirmed the statement of the chairman as to
the satisfactory progress and character of the works.
The resolution was unanimously carried, and • vote of
thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings.

MIDNIGHT MEETING OP' THE FALLEN.—The
committee of this movement held another gathering (the
28th) on Tuesday night last, in Shaftesbury Hall, Alders.
gate-street, City. 130 attended ; several were rescued. A
' plentiful repast was provided, after which several of the
friends of the movement addressed the poor women, and
offeredprayer. The meeting broke up at 2 o'clock.
A MOTHER AND CHILD KILLED ON THE RAILWAY.
—A melancholy occurrence took place on the Stockton and
Darlington Railway, on Saturday last. According to the
evidence adduced at an inquest held at Berry Edge, on
Monday, it appears that Peter Campbell, a man evidently in
the humbler walks of life, along with his wife and two chil-
dren, started on a long journey—from Wolsingham, inWear-
dale, to Herham, in Northumberland—which they intended
to foot all the way. Arrived at Crook, they chose the line
of railway as a lees tedious path than the turnpike. S.on
an engine and train of waggons came rushing up from
behind them on the down line. The driver blew his whistle,
and the father and one child he bad in his are stepped
cle►r of the line. The mother, with the other child,
which she carried on her back, in her bewilderment stepped
in between the line of rails on which the engine was run-
ning, and before the driver could pull up she was knocked
down. The child's death was instantaneous, the mother's
occurred shortly after.—A verdict of " Accidental death
was returned.

DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE.—
Yesterday (Wednesday) at the Shire-hall, Nottingham, •
tramp, about 45 years of age, named James Flood, was'
brought before the sitting magistrates, charged with mur-
derously assaulting sod robbing Joseph Torton, pasture-
master to Sir Robert Oil ton. on the highway between
Clifton and Gotham. near Nottingham, at 4 o'clock on
Monday morning. The attack was of • most garage
character. The prisomv went up to Turton and stid-
denly struck him on the head with • heavy bludgeon,
knocking him down. Turton was stunned for a short time,
but recovering himself, • long arid furious struggle took
place, the prisoner using his bludgeon and beating him about
the head until he became insensible. The prisoner them
proceeded to rifle his pockets, and bad just succeeded in
securing his money and watch when • man named Train,
who had been attracted from a distance by the mice of the
prosecutor, came up, and succeeded in capturing the pri-
soner. A medical certificate to the effect that the prose-
cutor lay in a very precarious stato, and would not be able
to attend for some days. having been produced, the man was I
remanded until next Wednesday.

fore been equalled in this country, swept over the above
town and neighbourhood, causing considerable damage to
house and other property, besides tearing up several large
trees. During the continuance of the gale, which fortu-
nately lasted only for shout treaty minutes, the sky pre-
seated • most direful aspect, patches of dark red, yellow,
and black alternating along the heavens; and as if to add
to the appalling nature of the scene, the whole body of the
Shannon and lake (Lough Doug) was, apparently, by force
of the wind, raised up and tossed high into the sir in deem
volumes of spray, which for the time actually obscured
from view the surroundieg mountains, early of which are
nearly two thousand feet high.—Dublin Eveisie. 1164. .

.tee c,iirrr-

London for American securities ; it is to be remarked, how-

Preferred Shares, and for Illinois Central paid up and
90 dole. paid shame. The high rate of exchange militates
much neatest bonds, which do not appear to move up in
New York, in proportion to the premium on gold, and
moreover as most sound railroad bonds are oommaodiug in
New York premiums of 5 to 15 per coot, any further large
advance can scarcely be expected to take place there on se-
curities redeemable at par.
To-day, however, on telegraphic advice' being received
from New York, to the 11th, reporting exchange higher and
stocks lower, the market suddenly gave way, and closes dull
at a decline of about 2 dole. in Illinois and 3 dola. in Erie
Shares. Virginia Six per Cent, have also declined one to two
per cent.
