MARYLEBO;4E.

Henry Barton, a iroil3ysers Wai:, was charged on re•
mend with having caused the death of Barnet haycock.
The particulars of the former proosedings have already op-
Caland, it will be remembered that on Saturday, the SA
e, the prisoner was men to go into the shop of Mr.
Mimeo, Elate-lane Bayswater, and secrete himself behind
the °punter. Demised went in to give information to the
shopkeeper of what he had sena, when the prisoner, on rush-
ing out of the premises to make his escape, pushed against
her and she fall down three stems. One of her arms wart
through alone of ghee In the door, and she sustained leas-
rations of a strange nature. She was picked up bleeding pro-
fusely, and without loss of time conveyed to St. Mary's Hos-
pital, in which institution she expired on the followiag
Tuesday.
The additional evidence now gone into was that of Mr.
Lawmen*, one of the surgeons of the hospital, whose 'Asg-
ard went to show that the wounds on the arm mused
gangrene, which resulted in death one of the wounds was
at least four inches in length.
A clerk to Mr. Johnson, solicitor, mbeallted that the la-
mentable occurrence was purely accidental, and that the
prisoner ought not to be further detained in custody.

LAMBETH.

iPilfiaer Sing, the d 7177,, el one of Mr. Matthew Halle
Brizton omnibuaea, surrendered to hie moonbeam to be
further examined before Mr. Elliott, on a charge of baying
caused the death of Mary Penn, aged three years, the
daughter of Mr. Pratt, doorkeeperat the House of Common..
Mr. Sleigh said he had no farther evidence to offer in the
rase, and it was for his worship to may whether the evidence
before given was not sufficient to send the prisoner to take
his trial on the charge of having caused the death of the poor
child. He (Mr. Sleigh) ern there on behalf of the afflicted
parents, who felt it to be their duty to cause the strictest
Inv
ir. licitiowl't thought there wee sot the slightest ground
for sending the accused for trial, ea the ewe was one of those
unfortunate occurrences which will rake place when all pos-
sible caution was used. The testimony of all the witnesses
called, with the exception of one, was in favour of the &t-
-aped, and it ass scarcely to be supposed that even the most
mitten person would whip hie home while a lady and her
child were is view, end drive over them. He ooeld not un-
derstand why the driver of the front omnlbua had not, when
hailed bye bay on the pathway, drove towards the aide of
the road sheers. on, for had this been done on the present
occsaion!the unfortunate accident would not have occurred.
However, he did not do so, he stopped in the centre of the
road, and tie prisoner, in pulsing on the off aide, was on his
right side. Under all the circwortances be did not see any
ground for detaining the prisoner any longer, and he was
therefore discharged.
