SOUTHWARK.
FTLACAi AT A H %UM %I' HTATTON.

Th Iwo' Burr ~,-s, a respoctable-looking man, described as

,r4vd with being drunk at the South London Railway
:owns. Lon.lon-bridge, creating a disturbance, ssault-
ui of the officers, and refusing to leave when re-
iu,sted.

Wakefield. a constable in the employ of the
London, I:righton, soil South Coma Railway, said that
..bout lu minutes to 7 on the previous evening he was on
duty at the gate leading to the South London Railway
p!rtbdui. when lie saw the prisoner coming through the
hooking tittles, pushing persons about in rather is rough
manner. Ito came to the gate where witness stood, and
endeavoured to force his way without showing his ticket,
Witness stopped him and told him he could
not pass, when witness saw that he was in-
to‘icated, and then be refused to allow bum to
tr.,v,.1 in that state. The prisoner then became very
nt, and struck him deliberately on the breast, nearly
knocking 1 • loam. His conduct then became so bad that
he was compelled to seek assistance to remove him from

the station. He would then have allowed him to go had
he not assaulted hiui again. He was compelled to give him
into custody.
tine of the ticket collectors mid that he was examining
the tickets at the tiouth London side when he saw the pri•
amer strike the complainant on the breast. His conduct
was 5e uproarious that they bad some difficulty in remov-
ing him.

she pri,oner here said that he bad been dining with
some friends in the Uity and had unfortunately drunk too
much, but he thought that an they took his money at the
booking-office they ought to have allowed him to travel.
Tb. constable informed his worship that the defendant
had a return ticket, consequently had no occasion to
attend the booking-oflice, the clerks of which had strict
orders not to issue tickets to anyone under the influence
of 'bluer.
Tl.e defendant said that he forgot all about that. How-
ear uc was very sorry fur what he had done, and regretted
t,ry much having struck the company's officer.
Mr. Burch:n told him his conduct was very disgraceful,
and mulct' all the circumstances he mast pay a penalty of
74. and the costs. The money was immediately paid.
THA3IO3.
IMPORTANT Tu culthrMeßß of COAL.
J , • carman, aged 47, was brought up on re-
nand before Mr. Partridge. charged with stealing three
sacks and lslbs. weight of coals, the property of Mr. John
Phr.le, coal merchant, of No. St. John's-road,
Clerkentrell.

The prisoner was for Some time in the service of Mr.
Ceorge 'mkt, horse and cart contractor, of No. 19, Suffolk-
street, King's-cross, who was in the practice of delivering
coals to Mr. Plume's customers. A few days since the
prisoner rewi veil two tons of coals at t he Great Northern Rad-
w.te station to be delivered to 31essra.Yearsley and Spooner,
in hock-street, Whitechapel. The prisoner stopped his
LOn . and waggon opposite the Red Lion public-house at
the corner of Leman-strs.‘et and High-street, Vi bite-
chapel, took a lump of coal weighing 18Ibs. out of
one of the sacks and gave it to a woman. Hudson,
a police-constable, No. 'S 11, who saw the robbery com-
mitted, pursued the woman, who ran into the public-
house by one doorway, made her escape by another, and
left the coal behind one of the doors. The prisoner was
taken to the station.house. On Hudson's return to the
wagon and horses he found three empty sacks on the top
of the fill ones, of which there were only 17. The pri-
soner had .fu full sacks at the railway station.
Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, on the part of the prisoner,
sd.l there was no proof that the three sacks of coals
were stolen before the prisoner's apprehension. The horses
and waggon were left in the care of a young man, and
caf..l bays Imes removed in the absence of the prisoner.
Mr. P.lrtridge said there way no doubt the prisoner had
bluitU the lump of coal produced.
Mr. eleirles Young could not resist a conviction upon
th...t. Tie prisoner, who would plead guilty, had given a
Itent, of coal to a poor woman, and would admit he had
in right to do so. The prisoner was a man of good
ctaraett r. :aid re,:rette,l what he had done.
M r. Tilley compl..ined th;:t waggoner,' were in the practice
of stealing coals in transit, by which coal merchants and
cotartetois fell into undeserved odium. He gave the
111,..tter tart' goal wages.
IHodson ,tel the prisoner was intrusted with two tons
of ‘.....1. to deliver to Mr. t hiley in Church-street, Shore-
ditch. on the 111th of but month, and there was a de-
/ ficiency of oi cwt. 2 qtr. and 17
Mr. Partridge—More than three sacks deficient out of
twenty, and li.,re is another ease of a similar description.
I can only cunt ict the prisoner of stealing 181 ha.
of coals., hot I am by no means dispoeed to
treat tins as a light case. A wholesale system

COLLIsIoN 4)N THE METIZuPOLITAN
RAILWAY.-(THIS DAY.)

This morning an accident took place at the
Farrington-road station of the Metropolitan Railway,
which oecadoued considerable alarm among the passengers
of the tt.till due front Kensington at and a local
train immediately following. It seems that the train
from Kensington had stopped at the station for the pur-
pose of setting down passengers. While it was in that
position a local train (iota King's-cross was nearing the
junction. The fog was very thick at the time, and the
driver of the last train was unable to distinguish the arm-
signal of the narrow gauge line which indicated danger.
The cons, pieuce was that the " local " ran into the train
stooling at the station, Hull many of the passengers were
notch shaken, and the engine of the last train greatly in.
jurml. Two gentlemen named respectively Barrage and
Steel received severe cuts about the head and face ; but
they were enabled to be removed to their homes after hav-
ing received medical assistance. The collision did not
cause much delay, and the traffic between Paddington and
Meorgateatrect was carried on as usual. The driver and
fireman of the local train escaped unhurt.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO AN EXPRESS

C.IIZLISLE, EMMY EVENING.

This (Friday) afternoon, a serious accident
occurred between Cal thwaite and Sonthwaite to the quick
train tine in Carlisle from the south at 1.55 p.m., result-
ing in injury to several passengers. It appears that when
the trait reached a point between the two stations re-
ferred to the axle of one of the carriages broke, the iron
having doubtle,s been rendered brittle by the frost. The
carriage was broken to pieces, anti the carriages behind it,
consisting of two composites, a third class, two more com-
posites and van, were thrown olf the metals, and three of
them completely overturned on the other line of rails,
and smashed. The guard, who was riding in the van,
was unable to communicate with the driver before he
was overturned, stunned, and seriously injured. Fortu-
nately, however, the driver was apprised by the bump-
ing of the train that something had happened, and
on turning round and finding that there were only
two carriages now attached to the train, be shut off the
steam, put on the breaks as quickly as possible, and sue-
ceeded in bringing the train to a stand about fifty yards
from where the catastrophe occurred. The passengers
were naturally in a state of great alarm, and sonic of them
had miraculous escapes from dangerous injuries.
The passengers who were in the carriages which were
overturned were extricated from their perilous positions
without delay, and all having been placed in the two
carriages which remained on the line were con-
veyed to Carlisle. The passengers who had received
injuries, or who were shaken, went into the County Hotel.
Among the passengers injured or shaken were :—The Rev.
J. T. Potts, Swedenborgian minister at Glosgow,who, with
his wife and two young children, was travelling in the third
class carriage of which the axle broke,and their escape with
comparatively slight injuries is exceedingly wonderful,
the carriage having been smashed to splinters ; Mr. Patey
and Madame Patey-Whytock, who were on their way from
Manchester to fulfil an engagement at Edinburgh to-
morrow night ; Mr. Ladynian, of London, who was on
his way to visit his brother near Windermere, and
who will probably continue his journey to-morrow;
Mr. Ilarchant, wool-stapler, Hawick ; Mr. Hartley,
Myrtle-street, Glasgow; Mr. Thompson, Kirkcud-
bright ; Mr. Hart, of Lord's Chambers, Manchester, agent
for Messrs. Banks and Co., Keswick; Mr. James Piggott,
Glasgow ; Mr. Robert Fellows, of Cant Bridge ; and Mrs. Met-
calf, of Marypor t, wife of Captain Metcalf, who was on her
way to Blwyport, from Liverpool, accompanied by her
servant. Many of these will be able to resume their
journey to-night ; and all of them, it is expected, will be
able to leave the County Hotel to-morrow.

PAINFUL AFFAIR IN TIIR HACKNEY-ROAD.

An inquiry was held by Mr. Humphreys, Mid-
dlesex coroner, last night, at the King's Arms, Ann's-
place, Hackney-road, respecting the death of the illegiti-
mate male child of Alice Christmas, a young woman 20
years of age.
Caroline Christmas, a nepeetable-looking young woman,
said that she was 21 years old, and lived with her sister at
her father's house in Ann's-place. They were gold beaters.
On last Friday night .Vice complained of being ill and she
was treated by witness and her father for a cold. No
suspicion was entertained that anything was wrong. At
2 o'clock in the morning witness was awoke by her
sister's groans, and was asked by her to sec what had hap-
pened. Witness found a child in the bed and said,
" Oh, Alice ! it is a baby !" Witness was going
to tell her father when Alice clung to her and
implored her for Heaven's sake not to tell him at least
so soon. Witness did not know what to do, for she
had no mother to whom she could speak. She walked
about the room distracted, and nearly went mad. She
two or three times said that she was doing wrong in not
telling her father, but Alice begged and prayed of her not
to do so, and clung to her to prevent her. At last, at S
in themorning, witness said Abe could stand it no longer,
and she went to her father and told what had happened:
A doctor was sent for ; the child was then found to be
dead.

The Coroner asked the witness if the child was alive
when she saw it at first.

The witness said that she thought it was then dead.
When pressed upon the point she said that she had told
the doctor that she had heard it breathing ; but she was
not sure that it was the child that made tke noise ; it
might have been the cat.
The Coroner said that the cat was made responsible for
a great many things in lodging-houses, but he had never
beard of its being charged in a case of this kind before.
The witness said that the at was in the room, and that
she had hunted it off the bed before she went to sleep that
night. She was positive that she did not hear the child
cry. Her sister had never let her know anything about
her condition, and witness never imagined that anything of
the kind was to be expected. No preparation of any kind
had been made for the child by her sister. Witness knew
that her sister had a young man, but she thought that
everything was quite proper.
Mr. Talbot Kuig, surgeon, said that he was sent for to
see the deceased child and its mother on Saturday morning
last. The child was in the bed with the young woman,
and was quite dead. He had made a post-mortemlexami-
nation since, and found that it was a fully developed male
child, and that it had beau born alive, and had breathed.
Death had resulted from suffocation, and from want of pro-
per attention at birth. There were no marks of violence
on the body.
The Coroner, in summing up, left it to the jury to say
whether the neglect which resulted in the child 'a death
had been wilful, or bad arisen through inexperience and
the natural reluctance of the mother to permit her sister
to make known her elingrace.
The jury, after deliberating, stated that they did not
believe that the neglect had been wilful, or that it was
designed to produce the death of the child, and they re-
turned a verdict " That the deceased child died from
suffocation, caused by want of proper attendance at birth."

THE WEATH en. —(Tu Is DAY. )—The thermometer
last night indicated '2O deg. below freezing. To-day there
has been much fog, with a moderate breeze blowing in an
easterly direction ; and, with the glass at freezing point,
at 1 o'clock there was every appearance of a
thaw setting in. There has been no resumption of omni-
bus traffic ; and the prices asked for vegetables this morn-
ing at Coveut.garden showed the severity of the frost as
experienced by the market gardeners.

During last year 3511 inches of rain fell on Shir-
ley-common, Hampshire.

The traffic on the Metropolitan Railway continues
on a most extraordinary scale, and the facilities by the
South Eastern line front Cannon-street to Charing-cross
have been invaluable.
FATHER Nr.WMAN AND THE PROPOSED ORATORY
AT OX FORD. —Dr. Ullathorne, the Roman catholic bishop
of Birmingham, writes to toe Westminster Gazette :—" It
is quite true that Dr. Newman has purchased a piece
of land at Oxford, but it is not true that be ever de-
cided on going there, or on doing anything there, al-
though he was not without hope that by some means the
scheme of building a church there might be brought about.
It is still less true that Dr. Newman has ever intended
to leave the Birmingham Oratory with the view of taking
up his own residence at Oxford. But it is true that Dr.
Newman, encouraged by me, has had under deliberation
the question of establishing a church and oratory at Oxford
in connexion with the Birmingham oratory. As the plan,
however, if carried out, involved amongst its elements one
special privilege, the granting which was not within
the power of the ordinary, but required a petition to the
Holy See : believing in the reasonableness of the petition,
I undertook to present it to the Holy See ; and thus it has
happened that whatever correspondence there has been
with Rome on the subject has passed through the hands of
the present writer and not of Dr. Newman. The privi-
lege petitioned for was granted. And Dr. Newman has
not only received no intimation of such an opinion, as
asserted in your thin fie, from any Roman prelate, but is
still, with the sanction of his undertaking implied in his
petition being granted, in course of deliberation on the
question. I have already mentioned as to whether he will
' establish a church and oratory at Oxford, or leave the
work.of building a church to others."
