EXTENSIVE " FIND" OF STOLEN PROPERTY.—Last

night the police found a large number of spirit
labels, and pepper cruet tops, (supposed to have
been stolen,) in a public•house yard, in Gill•street.
Many of the articles were of such a miscellaneous
character, as quite to puzzle even the most acute

THE KNIFE IN THE ASC E NDANT.—A man was
stabbed on Sunday 'in Northumberland-street,
by another man, neither of whose names were, last
evening, known to the police. The assassin, who
made his escape, wore a baragan dress, and spoke
with a Scotch accent. At almost the same time
another man was stabbed at Holland-street, Park,
by a person unknown ; but also distinguished by a
Scotch accent.

TRIKE AT WIGAN

hands were concerned, the strike at Wigan would
have come to an end yesterday, we regret to say

under certain conditions, and the great majority of

not the slightest appearance of any arrangement

A PRETTY SPECIMEN OF A JURY.—Last week, at
the sessions held at Knutsford, Stephen Marshall, one of the
London swell-mobmen, was brought up on a charge of steal-
ing a cash-box containing a £lOOO, in the month of April
last, from Mr. Clarke, the keeper of the Liverpool Arms,
Birkenhead. Three witnesses gave evidence
as to his identity, and that he being the last person that left
the house, there could be no doubt but that he was one cf
the parties that committed the robbery. The jury, to the
utter astonishment of the whole court, found him not guilty.
The prisoner, on leaving the Court, saw one of the London
detectives, (who had come over from Dublin to prove a pre-
vious conviction against him for picking pockets) he came up
to him and said loudly, " Tom, aint I a lucky fellow ?" He
afterwards took several of the jurymen (who had so kindly
acquitted him) to a public house, gave them drink, and
actually paid for a shave that the foreman got. He also gave
an account of how the robbery was committed, and how
much he got for his share.

DIABOLICAL OUTRAGE AT WIGAN.—About twelve
o'clock on Sunday night, two Ginger-beer bottles,
full of powder, were put through the window of a
Cottage, near Ince bar, occupied by a man named
Joseph Hetherington, and the gunpowder was then
lighted with a fusee, such as is used by Colliers.
An explosion was thus caused, and the window

was blown into the middle of the road, and the
house much shaken. It appears that previous to
the colliers' strike, Hetherington, his brother, and
two other men, contracted to get a block of coal
in one of the pits of the Ince Hall Company, and
that as the job will last several months, they have

not ceased to work. Hence it is supposed that
some collier or colliers on strike have committed

this outrage. Five or six persons were sleeping in
the house at the time of the explosion, but tho'
greatly alarmed, none of them are injured. Some
of their pit clothes were buiied. The police in
Wigan and the neighbourhood have been increased
in number.

DIABOLICAL ATTEMFT OF A MAN TO MURDER HIS
WlFE.—Yesterday morning, between the hours of
six and seven o'clock, a man named Greenway, re-
siding in Little Park-street, Kennington, London,
made a desperate attempt to murder his wife. The
neighbours heard loud cries of murder proceeding
from the house, and on a policeman
the inhabitants getting *0 it Lhey beheld an awful
scene, for Greenway's wife was found with her
throat dreadfully ent, nnel divers ntheir cuts about
both her hands. Greenway, the husband, was also
found with his hands and clothes in a bloody con-
dition. He was at once taken to Kenningtonpolice
station, whilst at the same time the female was
removed in a cab to Guy's Hospital. At the station

he said that his wife had had two men in the
house all night, and before he inflicted the injuries
on her person that she had told him that she in-
tended to leave him with his three children, and
that was his reason for murdering her. He like-
wise said that if she died he should feel happy to
hang for her on the gallows He further said
that it was his intention to have killed her, and
if he had succeeded that he should then have cut
his own throat. Such is the serious nature of
the wounds the female has received, that not the
least hope is entertained of her recovery.
