A CHILD KILLED BY A
neat wee/tad at the police•otlce, Cheadle, Staffordshire,
feet Monday, before Mr. Abraham Flint, to inquire into
the death of a grandchild of a Mr. Finney, of the Cheadle
Park farm. It amend from the evidence of William
Phillip., one of the farm servants, that on Friday afternoon
last, while some of the family were absent at Cheadle-
market, the child in gentles—a remarkably tins boy about
two years old—was playing about in the yard with him, and
that while be was at work the child slipped away and went,
se be @apposed, into the house; but presently, on inquiry
being made for the child, it was found to have gone
Into a field at the further end of the yard, when on s search
being men It was toood lying with its face downwards, quite
dead, a Sock of tut key. being about twenty yards off. Prom
the evidence of Phillips it appeared that a kind of feud ex-
isted between the child and the turkeys. he havleg on some
kneel wain killed several of the yang ones with a stick,
since which time the -.old oock bird (to as. the witness's ex-
pression) had made pecks at the child." Mr. Thos. Webb,
=deposed that on being east for to the child, the only
mark of violence found upon it was epos the jaw at
knee part of the face, which might have been eared by
a turkey's wing, and was not sock a mark es would
have been caned by a kick front a hone; but he stated that
as there wire horses in the field be examined the ground
closely, but could not discover any horas footman near
when the child lay. The coroner and jury, together with
the medical man, went to view the t 0,.. its quo and the
demand, and upon their return the former addres•ed a few
newts to them, suggesting that although there was so
poeitive evidence of unmanlier is which the child cams by
its dee', there could be very little doubt, looking at the
evidence which had been brought before them, that It bad
been caused by the turkey. A verdict to that effect wee ea
oordisely returned.
Tub ADVAISTAriES or rue SEA-EIDL—A lazy,

ever to do but meet and par, and meet and pan mereng,
noon, and night, has a wonderful advantage over a treeing,
bunting town, and ale over the country, where people see
scattered tar and wade, and can only eome together by
appointment, and more good basin.., as the merchants say,
can be done in a week at • popular watering-place than in a
year anywhere else. The men are idle at the watering-
places as well n the ladies, which is a wonderful advantage,
nies-teutha of the eligible men of the kingdom being so
absorbed in their I cloyed ten per cent. hunting, as to leave
little or no lebure for love. hence, ale*, whets they do begin
wooing they begin in tight earnest; an introduotiou, a court-
