CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

(THIS DAY.)

The August session of the Central Criminal Court was
Ispthis morning before the Rat Hon. the Lord
yol, the Recorder Alderman Hale, Alderman Loader,
Mr. Alderman ad Merit( Phillip', Mr. Aldermen and
Sheriff Gabriel, Mr. Under Sheriff Esgleton, &c.
The Recorder mid the calendar was not quite soea
iu point of number as would have bean expected
from the period that had elapse] sines the last seedos,
but there were a mod many serious cams to come
before them. The first was a charge of murder spinet
• young man, named Youngman, who was charged
with killing no lees than four persons, his mother,
two brothers younger than himself, and &young woman to
whom be was about to be married. The parties were all in
the same house together, and the prisoner appeared to
have admitted that he had killed his mother and his
determent was that she had killed the others and attacked
him, and that he killed her in self-defeat:ie. The'grand jury
would have to consider whether, upon the evidence that
would be laid before them, they could give credit to this
story, and it appeared to him that it would be their duty to
return a true baL Another serious case was a charge of man-
slaughter against two of the keepers of the Colney Hatch pau-
per lunatic asylum, and the offence imputed to them was
that by means of great violence they had caused the death of
one of the lunatic inmates. The principal evidence against
the prisoners was that of other lunatics, and although
evidence of this description ought undoubtedly to be looked
at carefully, still it appeared to him that there was
such confirmation of the story told by these wit•
mace, that it would be the duty of the grand jury
to return • tree bill. There was another case of
manslaughter, in which • woman named Payne was
charged with causing the death of her child by neglect
and want of food, but it appeared by the depositions
that the prisoner was in a very miserable state of
poverty, and that notwithstanding this, she had allowed
three and sixpence a week for the support of her child, and
there did not appear to be any evidence that she was in a
condition to do more for her child than she had done.
There was a moat revolting charge against a schoolmistress,
named Mary Allen, and she was mewed of assaulting •
child in a moat brutal manner and also acting to her
in such a disgusting manner in other respects that
he could not any further advert to it. A school-
mistress was of course entitled to no. moderate coo.
rection to • child but no misconduct would justify such bru-
tality as appeared to have been exercised in this instance,
and it woo be their duty therefore to find a true bill. The
learned Recorder said there were two or three other serious
charges of attempting to murder in the calendar, but the
facts were simple and they could easily deal with them.
He then damaged them to the performance of their
dmise.

Tbe judges who will preside are Mr. Julies Williams
and Mr. Justice Willem ; sal the adorns* who are upon
the mid to set es wooed ouonsimniensen mwe Mr P. Leone,
Sir G. Carroll, Sidney, Sir M. W. Ciatilm, Lawrence, and
Conder.
