THE CONDEMNED CONVICT CHARITY HOSKIN.—
Thi9 unfortunate woman, who wee convicted of the wilful
murder of her infant child at Truro, and tried at the Corn-
wall Arbor on Saturday last, will not be executed, the
governor of the county gaol having raceived • respite of
the seetence. She will be confined during her Majesty's
pleasure.
THE CHAROL or IiiCRDER rue CAMBRIDOL—Tho
final examination of Filson, the youth charged with the
murder of one Harvey Rumbelowe, took place at the Town-
hall, Osmbridge, yesterday. At the close of the examine-
Hoe on Friday last, a man named Thomas, alias " Batty"
Carter, was apprehended, and, after a private examination
by the magistrates, remanded, because Mrs. Chapman swore
that Carter was one of the men whom she saw illuaing the
deceased on the common. Yesterday morning a consulta-
tion took place between the members of the bench ; after
which the Mayor said there was not sufficient evidence to
ensure • conviction, and the prisoners were accordingly
discharged.
SHOCKINo DISCOVERY AT CROYDON.—On Wed-
nesday evening the body of • man was discovered in a ditch
adjoining the nut wood, near the fienturst-road, Croydon.
It waste all appearance that of • " navvy," being dressed
is fustian mat sod trousers—the latter being muck torn
and portions missing—dark cloth waistcoat, ono boot an sad
the other torn off. No hat or cap was found. The frightful
state of decomposition proved that the body bad been lying
there • considerable time. All that remained of the head
was • portion of the face which had adhered to the bones of
the nose and forehead, and which, like the riot of the corpse,
was perfectly blackened. The hack of the head, brain, &c.
had been eaten away by vermin. The body was discovered
by a lad, who gave information to others respectins it, and
they in turn communicated with the police, who, with their
inspector, were soon on the spot, and bad the body con-
veyed to the Selhurst Arms, there to await the coroner's
inquest. It Is a carious fact that the man was found lying
with his bead downwards, and his feet crossed upon the
embankment, one hand being stretched out, and the other
in his pocket. It is supposed by some that he was struck
by lightning, whilst others are of opinion that he laid down
in the ditch whilst drank, and died in a fit. If the deceased
came to his death by foal mama, robbery was certainly not
the object of the assassin, 1111 the dead man's pockets coo.
Mined a good deal of mosey, a bunch of keys. a pocket-
book, and other artieles. The police entertain hopes that
the papers in the pocket-book will afford a clue to the
elucidation of the mystery.
