ACCIDENT TO MR. SWINBITRNE, TILE POET.—
Between one and two o'clock yesterday afternoon the
occupants of the reading-room of the British Museum
were startled by hearing a violent exclamation of pain,
followed by a heavy fall on the floor. It was soon aecer-
tained that Mr. Algernon Swinburne had fallen from his
seat in a strong convulsive fit, and was violently strug-
gling. He was also bleeding profusely from a wound on
the head. Assistance was instantly at hand, and the suf-
ferer was held down for a few minutes, and then re-
moved for air to the passage outside, under the care of
the superintendent of the room. Two medical men hap-
pening to be in the room, they at once proceeded to ascer-
tain the extent of the injury, but the only wound was a
slanting one on the right temple, immediately over the
eye, of about an inch and a half in length, and down to
the bone, from which the blood flowed freely. In about
half an hour Mr. Swinburne had recovered sufficient
consciousness to be placed in a cab and taken home. In
appears that he was sitting at the end of the P—Q avenue,
and in falling struck his head against the iron staple of
the ring by which the tables are moved.
SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A BLIND MAN.—
At the Weston-super-Mare Police-court, yesterday, a
blind man, named George Bull, was charged with com-
mitting a rape on a young girl named Fanny Forward.
From the evidence of the prosecutrix, who is a girl of
rather prepoaseissing appearance, it appeared that some
four months since she engaged as an assistant in prisoner's
tobacconist shop at a certain salary, and was to take her
meals with him and his wife at his private residence in
another part of the town. On Monday she left the shop
in charge of Mrs. Bull and went home to tea, the prisoner
accompanying her. After tea she went upstairs to dress
for the evening, and when in the act of so doing she turned
round, and found prisoner just behind her with hie shoes
off. She screamed and ran to the door, but found that it
was locked. After a severe struggle prisoner at last suc-
ceeded in committing the offence complained of, and then
offered her • sovereign not to tell his wife. She refused,
and told Mrs. Bull the same evening, when prisoner ad-
mitted the charge, and he and his wife had since sepa-
rated. After a patient hearing of the case, the bench
committed the prisoner to take his trial at the next So-
merset assize, bail to the extent of I,OOW. being accepted.
AN IRISH BREACH or Pitcairn' Caen.—Our
Dublin correspondent telegraphs that an action by Miss
Sarah Peruse, of Galway against Captain Rupert Brady, of
the 2nd Regiment, for breach' of promise of marriage, was
settled yesterday in the Court of Queen'. Bench on the
following terms—that the defendant shall pay over • sum
of 2001. to each of two charities to be selected by the lady ;
that he shall pay all the costs as between solicitor and
client, including the expense of the special jury sworn ;
and that all the defences suggesting a conditional promise
shall be absolutely withdrawn.
EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE.—Last evening Mr.
William Carter, the coroner for East Surrey, held an in-
quest at the Duke of Clarence tavern, Penton-place, Ken-
nington, respecting the death of James Richard Fuller,
aged 30 years. Henry Morgan, 8, Scorteden-road, Cam-
berwell, said that in. Wednesday afternoon he saw the de-
ceased walk pass him in John-street, Camberwell. He
wore a "Champagne Charley bat," curly hair, and small
whiskers, and he walked up to a catsmeat-man's barrow,
took up a kuife and tried to stab himself with it. As it
was rather blunt he took up another, and plunged it seven
twee in the left aide of his chest. After he had stabbed
himself he threw the knife away, and fell upon the
ground. Withers then called assistance, and the deceased
was placed on a shutter and carried to the hospital, where
he died on Thursday. It further appeared from the
evidence that the deceased was • painters' brushmaker,
and bad for some time had little or no work, and had
been attacked with cholera. On Tuesday he complained
of numbness in his head. He had been in the habit of
drinking. On Sunday he was excited by pain, and on
Wednesday he became very excited, and ran from the
Borough to Camberwell before he stabbed himself. The
jury returned a verdict of "Suicide while in a state of
temporary insanity."
