CORONERS' INQUESTS.

An inquest was held on Tuesday night, at the house of Slr.
Knapp, chemist. Southwark.road, on the body of Mra. E. Knapp,
his wife, who destroyed herself by taking oxalic acid, on fitaturday
last. Evidence was produced to show that the deceased had pee•i.
ously exhibited abetration of mind, and the Jury returned a verdict
of Insanity:*

Another inqueo was held the sante night at the King's Arms
Tap, llanelagh•road. Mil'bank. on the body of Alexander Ro-
bertson, a young 6entleman, aged only 17, who drowned himself in
the river Thames on the 25th February last. The Jury returned a
verdict of " Temporary derangement."

On Saturday morning last the warehouse of Mr. Nichol-
son Vialey, drysalter, of Duke-street, in this town, was discovered
to have been entered, and a large quantity of Prussian blue carried
away. As no means appeared by which the robbers could have
effected an entrance into the premise•, it was presumed that they
must have let themselves in by means of false keys, and locked the
dotes after them, when the rubbery was effected. New and addi-
tional locks were consequently put upon the doors, and the pre-
mises were considered sufficiently secure; but on Wednesday
morning last it was found that they had again been entered, and an
atempt made to break into the iron safe by blasting the lock with
gunpowder, but it had not been successful. It appeared that a
considerable quantity of powder had been introduced into the lock,
but the greater part of it had fines down to the bottom of the
door, and did not ignite whet fire was applied to the keyhole. A
portion of the charge hail exploded, but it was too tonal ict
quantity to produce any effect upon the lock. Ad no mode of awit
or entrance was still apparent, and the locks were of too good a
kind to be opened by false keys, it is supposed that the thieves had
concealed themselves in the warehouse the preceding evening, and
slipped out again in the morning. aim, the doors were opened.
which they would have no great difficulty in effeeting.—Mandies.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Mr. Lancaster, jaw., the proprietor of the Steam Paeket.office
Piccadilly. who, a few (ley.' ago, underwent a long examination a
this office, (the particulars of which we then gate,) under a charge
of haviug broken open packages, belonging to Mr. Addison, an
officer of the Dragoon Guard*, delivered at the Steam Packet.
office, with directions to have them sent to different parts of the
country, was yesterday brought up for another examin 'don. The
great number of pnwnbrokers' ticket*, which, it will he reeelleeted,
were found by the officers on Mr. Lancaster when they apprehended
him, had been. since the last examination, sent to the difi}rent
pawnbrokers. directing them to attend yesterday, which they ac.
cordingly dud, with the articles pawned ; but though there were a
great number of persons came forward, who stated that they had
delivered packages at the Steam Packet.ollice, which were never
forwarded according to the directions given, yet, on examining the
articles produced by the pawnbrokers, they were not able to identify
any belonging to themselves.
Sir G. }ARRANT, the Magistrate, was about to commit the pri.
sorer on Mr. Addison'e charge, which he observed was quite Isom.
plate, the package having been found in the prisoner's desk ; but
ultimately thought it better to remand him the another week. as it
was probable that persona would come forward who might identify
some of the property produced by the pawnbrokers.
He was accordingly remanded.
A young man, of good appearance, named Band, was charged by
a gentleman, who lives in Frith-street, Soho, with the following
gross fraud.
The gentleman stated, that about a fortnight ago he was accosted
bi the prisoner. in company with another person, in Piccadilly.
The prisoner asked him if he would buy some cheap French cam-
bric and Holland linen, which his companion had, who was in
great distress; and so importunate watebe in begging of him to buy,
that he consented to look at the articles, for which purpose they
went into a public house in Rupert-street. Two parcels were
opened by the prisoner; they were stamped, as it appeared to him,
from the towns in Holland and France they purported to have been
made in. The gentleman purchased French cambric and Holland
linen, to the value OIL 175., which he paid the prisoner. The ar-
ticles wen, then tied up in a silk handkerchief. mid the gentleman
directed them to he left at his lodgings in Frith-street. The prison.
er, after making his bow, departed for the purpose of doing no. On
the gentleman pilot g he/Me, he found the parcel before him. but, on
apiming b, discovered that instead of French cambric and tine Hol-
land linen, it contained common cotton, not worth Init. a yard.
Mr. 11Anst r.a, who attended for the prisoner, asked it there was
any evidence of the prisoner's having changed the parcel, and none
betog able to be produced. Mr. DYER advised the gentleman to
indict him at the Sessions, which the gentleman expressed his de-
termination to do.

THE SILK TRADE.

On Thursday a meeting of the Journeymen Silk Weavers re.
aiding in Snitalfiehis, took place at Mr. Al•Kentie'a Chapel. Mile.
end Now Town. to take into cunsideration the report of the Com-
mittee on the huSineps now before Parliament. respecting the repeal
of the prohibitory laws, and other matters connected with the trade,

Mr. 31 (rot, Chairman.
Mews. Joys and WAL LACE. members of the Committee.
stated that their petition sea presented to Parliament, praying that
the Act of 1824 ight, previous to Its coning into force, be re.
teemed to a Committee, to ascertain how far it would injure the in-
terests of the silk manufacture. Their request, however, notwith-
standing the most unremitting exertion* to prwenre supporters for
it, in and out of Parliament, had not been complied with, and Mr.
Hiokisson pore them down with a most triumphant majority. On
this defeat, which had almn.t the effect of paralysis, they were
about giving up all expectation or receiving any oinsideration from
the tieverAntent, when their spirits were nvived by its being inti-
mated by the Vice-President of the Dowd rat Trade, that his 31a.
jesty's 111inisters were most anxious to do every thing in their
power to ameliorate their condition, and that with thus view a Bill
would be introduced, making considerable alterations in the mode
of collecting the duties, which they imagined would completely
abolish the grievances now complained of. That Bill, they mil,
Lad beer, since introduced, and read a second time.
The SECNETARV thon proceeded to read to the Meeting the
Act as now proposed, ted which bears the title of " A Table of
Duties on Silk Goods." This, it was observed, would not alone be
most beneficial to the trade, but would be also extremely productive
to the revenue, inasmuch as it would Prevent the losses the latter
must experience, either from fraudulent invoices, which estimated
the property at a much lower rate than it was virtually worth ; or
trim the ignorante of Custom-house officers, who could not pos-
sibly know its value.
It was then moved, and unanimously carried, that the Committee
be empowered toga forward until the business In Parliament be
tally settled.
After which the meeting broke up, under the influence of happy
and grateful feelings.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRITISH PRESS.

St 11,—Impresatd with the deepest sense of gratitude for tha
many services I have so often experienced from a generous public,
I beg leave most respectfully to Inform them, that, er rouraged by
their former liberality and kindness towards me. it is my intention
tO take a Benefit Concert at the Argyll Rooms. Regent-street, on
Svurday morning, the 10th of June instant, of which particulars
are already oily nixed. A most severe and afflicting malady. under
which I have been long suffering, and from shier', thank God ! I
am fast reovering, has been the means of considerably injuring
my circumstarces, and of involving me in some difficulties. To
enable me to surmount these, and to guard against future casualties
of the same nature, some kind friet,tis have generously tveppcd for-
ward to undertake the management of the intended Concert, in the
hose that it may be sufficiently productive as to-relieve me from
my present embarrassment. Most grateful, then. for this kind and
benevolent act, I beg leave once more moat respectfully to solicit
the kind support and patronage of a generous public, to whom I
never yet appealed in vain—on that I rest :ny hope of success ; and
although it cannot be expected that I should still retain unimpaired
thme enrnl powers I formerly might hare possessed, yet there shall
he no effort wanting on my part to use my hest endeavours for the
gratification of those who may be kind enough to honour nth with
their presence.
IVith the greatest respect and gratitude,
I have the honour to he, &e. &c.
