WANDSWORTH.

Mr. Alphonse Galina:a Bt. John's-hill-grove, Batter-
sea, appeared to answer a summons charging him with
suffering a ferocious dog to be at large =muzzled in a
thoroughfare.
_ . .

A yo-ung woman named Ellen East, in service, said that
on Saturday, the 18th inst., she was walking along St.
John's-hill-grove, when the defendant's dog flew out of
the gate and bit her on the arm.
The defendant produced the dog from a blachbag, with
a strap muzzle over its mouth. It was a terrier puppy,
only ten months old, and said that was the ferocious dog
for which he was summoned. He was not present at the
time of the occurrence, but he was informed that the dog
jumped out, and the complainant being afraid of its
tearing her dress put down her bands to drive it away.
He acknowledgd that the dog was unmuzzled.
Mr. Ingham suggested that the defendant should make
the young woman some compensation.
The defendant said he had offered to do so, but he had
been requested to have the dog killed. He was not willing
to have the puppy destroyed.
The parties then left the court to confer, with a view of
arranging the case. On their return the complainant
unwilling to have the case settled without having
Tiellaorfetdkilled.
- .

The defendant offered to give her 65., but refused to
have the dog destroyed.
Mr. Ingham recommended the complainant to accept
the to. and 2a for the summons. He said he was aware of
there being a notion among some people that it was
necessary to destroy a dog after it had bitten a person,
but that wee a foolish idea. All dogs, when puppies,
were in the habit of biting, but not from any ferociousness.
The defendant then banded 7e. to the young woman,
and told her that if she had accepted his offer on the first
occasion be would have given her a sovereign.

SUICIDE THROUGH JEALOIYBY.—Mr. Richards,
deputy coroner, held an inquest at the Prince of Wales
Tavern, Victoria-park, on Tuesday evening, respecting the
suicide of Coeser,ged 24 years. Mary
Ann Cower, • Henryrespectable-lookuig young woman, said
that she was the widow of the deceased, and that she
resided with her parents at 27, Artillery-lane, Bishops-
gate. She married the deceased twelve months ago.
It was a marriage of great affection on both sides. He
was a porter at a City warehouse. He took to drinking to
such an extent that witness had not sufficient to eat,
and when in liquor he used to beat her. A mouth ago
she left him on that amount, and went back to her
father. There was one child the issue of the marriage.
He was very jealous of witness, but without any cause.
On Friday night last he sent for her, and she saw
him in Bialiopsgate. He bade her good-bye, and said
she should never we him more ; but he had said that so
often that she never thought he was going to drown him-
self. She had promised to go back to live with him when
he got a home again, for he had sold off her furniture and
spent the money in drink. Since his death witness was
told that he had (no doubt when drunk) given hor •
dreadful character as a bad woman at the warehouse
, where he was employed. The other employes got up •
subscription of 10i. to send hint alone to New York. The
head of the firm, however, said that before giving the
money he would in wire whether what deceased said of
witness was true. He of course knew that it would be
proved to be false, and that, no doubt, made him de-
termine to destroy himself. He kissed her and
the child on Friday night when he was going
away. A policeman said that on Sunday morning,
before six o'clock, • sailor (who had since gone to sea)
come to him and said that a man had thrown himself into
the Duckett's Carod, and that when he had tried to save
him the man refused all assietanoe, and pushed off beyond
reach. On the bank was a hat, in which was the follow-
ing note :—" If whoever finds this hat will use the drags
he will find my body.-Btniday morning half-pest fear
o'clock." The drags were used, and deceased was got
out quite deed. In his pocket was found a portrait of his
wife and a letter written on two leaves of a packet book.
The Coroner said that the most charitable view to take of
the ease was that the deceased, becoming, however
groundleesly, 'jealous of his wife, took to drinking, and
drank till he lost the riAt use of his reason. The jury
returned • verdict, "That demand committed suicide
while in a state of temporary_ insanity."
