MYSTERIOUS MURDER.

• The Magistrate of the Head and James's.street Pollee Offices,
Dublin, have been laboriously engaged, fur the last fortnight, in
an investigation of thedollowing extraordinary Case :
A woman, whose name it is not prudent to disclose at Present,
gave information to the Magistrates of the I lead Police Office, that
about three weeks since she slept at 192, James's-street, a haute in
which `• good dry lodging for travellers and others," see to be had,
and that a pedlar, whom she heard the people of the place call Tom,
came to sleep there. Having occasion to send out to purchase some-
thing, this man gave a 30t. note, which he took from other notes,
to pay for what he wanted. Afterwards, in the dead of the night,
she saw Henry D-ifl; his wife, and her mother, named Mary Going
or Fitzpatrick. the proprietors of the lodging, proceed to the bed
where the pedlar lay ; they having first passed the candle over
informant's eyes, fur the purpose of ascertaining whether she was
asleep, and by means of a horrible process etfectud his murder.
Several witnesses have been exani hied for and against the accused,
who were at length committed front St. James's-street Police Office
to Seagate, for trial.
The body of a man shockingly mutilated, and whom nobody
could recognise, was found at Clondalkitt, about the time of this
alleged murder.--Freemars'aJorsraal.

DISTRESSING CASE.

Yesterday afternoon an inqueat was held at the Guy, Earl of
Warwick, Belton-street, Long-acre, on the body of a male infant.
The case excited considerable interest, inconsequence of a report
being circulaPal that the deceased was the illegitimate offspring of
an individual holding a prominent situation at one of the metro-
politan winter theatres, and the mother being an actress.
Mrs. Mary Ann Allen said that she was a widow, and resided
at No. 32, Great St. Andrew-stree,.Secen Dials. She was em-
ployed :is midwife to the parish of St. Giles. On Thursday last
she was called on to attimil the mother of the deceased, who was
near her aemichement, and delivered her of the deceased, which
was a large fine and healthy child when born. The mother of the
child was a pauper in the workhouse. On Sunday night intelli-
gence was sent to her of the child's death. On her arrival at the
workhouse she found the child dead.
In reply to questions from the Coroner, the witness said that the
mother's name was Caroline Fry ; she was an actress, about 181
years of age.
Coroner—Did she name the father of the child ?
Witness—(hesitatingly)—Why, she did name a Gentleman as
1 the father.
Coroner—Who is he ?
She would not mention the name. At length the beadle said he
was a principal performer and manager of one of the theatres.
Mary Butler. another nurse. deposed that the mother expressed
her grief at having overlain the child.
Juryman—Did she name the father of the child ?
Witoesa—Yes ; he is the head manager of
Juryman—ls it Mr.
Witness—l think that is the name. She said he took her to a
large white house in Soho-square.
Alr. Starkey, surgeon saw no marks of violeiee on the deceased,
and was of opinion that It was accidentally overlain by the mother.
The Jury returned a verdict to that effect.
Bartlett, the Beadle. live addressed the Jury. He said that the
parents of the girl reside at Ityde, in the Isle of Wight, and that
her fattier was a respectable master shoemaker. She informed him,
that while she was performing at Newnan she received a letter, of-
fering her an engagement, on which she. came to London, and met
the individual who wrote to her, who conducted her to a house in
Soho-square,. where they paned the night, and the result was the
above child. Since that period she had been abandoned by her
friends, and driven to the most abject distress ; she could never gain
an interview with the individual alluded to, although she had made
several applications for that purpose. She was at length obliged to
take lodgings al a public-house in Wild street, Drury-lane, where
ahe had been living in the greatest want, sometimes without food
to eat, and unable to pay her rent ; and as the period of her deli-
very was fast approaching, the landlord made application to him
(Bartlett) to do something for the girl. On visiting her place he
found her, as described, in a deplorable state, not having had food
for two days. lie applied to the parish overseers, who granted an
order for her removal to the workhouse, where she received every
asaistance.

LISBON PAPERS.

_
LISBON. Nov. 4.
The Gazette gives a very long account of a visit paid by his 11a.
jesty and the Royal Family to the great hospital, on the 2.7 th of
September. After hearing divine service in the chapel of the
hospital, which was filled with a vast concourse of the most dia.
tinguished persons, his Majesty examined every part of that noble
inethution. His Majesty, in passing through the wards. was cvi.
dently much affected at the various forms of suffering which
presented themselves to his notice. On the solicitation of the
chief surgeon, his Majesty granted to the hospital two private
lotteries of 12,000 tickets each ; confirmed the part which the
hospital had in those of the 311mericordia; again sanctioned the
weekly payment of 500 milrees by the public Treasury ; or.
dered a new infirmary for the convalescent; and, in short, we
may say every step was marked by some fresh testimony of his
royal munificence: . _ _

On the 22d of last month M. P. Arno Borg, fotinder of the
Royal Institution for the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind, at
Stockholm, and who was appointed by his Majesty our Sore.
reign to found a similar Institution in this city, had the honour
to present to his Majesty and to their Royal Highnesses the
Infantas two puptls of the schools for the deaf and dumb, aged
ten and twelve years' respectively. They presented to their
Royal Patroness the Infanta D. Isabella Maria two hymns, ad.
dressed to her Royal Highness by the two classes of the establish-
ment, written in a good hand by a boy and a girl in the school;
after which his Majesty was pleased to have them examined in his
pfesenee. They wrote satisfactory answers to questions put to
them in writing; wrote down what the Professors dictated ; de.
scribed in writing the objects shown to them ; pronounced their
names, solved some questions in arithmetic; and, in short, proved
what art can accomplish towards the relief of individuals in
their afflicting situation. From this first essay of the progress of
the deaf and dumb in the few months that the establishment has
been opened there is every reason to expect that it will rival the
many excellent Institutions of the same kind in other countries.

PO3T3CRIPT.—We have just received the Madrid Journals,
with the speech which (he Marquis de Moustier addressed to the
King of Spain on presenting his credentials. It was as follows:
" SIRE—The King, my august Master, in honouring me with
the title of Ambassador to your Majesty, has ordered me to renew
to your Majesty the assurances of the friendship rod affection
with which he is animated towards your Royal rerus, sad the
vows which he addresses to Heaven for the glory and prosperity of
your reign.

" The heart of your Majesty—the house from which you de-
scend, and the troubles which you have endured, have not faded
to make you appreciate all the sincerity, and all the extent of those
sentiments, of which it k sogioriottx to me to be the organ.

" Sire-11y mission will he fulfilled, and my most anxious de-
sires will be satisfied, if 1 succeed in gaining the confidence and
favour which I solicit your Majesty to accord to me.
• " Every effart of zeal and every testimony of respectful attach.
ment, of which your Majesty will deign to permit me an offer the
tribute, will be constantly employed to merit so great a favour."
Ilia Majesty received with his accustomed kindness and peculiar
affability the Ambassador from France, who was afterwards pre.
sented to the Queen and to their Royal Highnesses, by whom he
was honoured with an equally distinguished reception.

Minister for Foreign Affairs, has declared, in the most imsitive
manner. his intention to introduce the pacific system into Greece as
well as into the rest of Europe. As they attribute this new policy
to a motive, the justice ot which cannot be questioned—namely,
that the powerful intervention of Russia can alone counterbalance
the dangers of English interference, it is foreseen that if the Greek.,
maintain an attitude of independence, the pacification may be ac-
complished before the opening of the next campaign. People even
go the length of saying, that, till now, the Russian Emperor has
given England an account of all his former efforts with the Divan,
to redress the grievances known to have existed with respect to the
Principalities, but that now he has at last discovered that his frank.
ness has been abused, and that the true object of the diplomatic
courtesy manifested on the part of the English Ministry. was to
turn the attention of the Emperor from the affairs of Greece, in
order to prevent his folios ing this impulse, which had been given
hint by the opinion of all Russia, and to make him sacrifice the
pmsperity of his Empire to the ambitious views of England, his
rival.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Wzrexc4DY, ArauiT '3.

ELEPHANT AND CASTLE CHARITY.
Mr. SILTODRN Considered that there had been some wilatake
about the time of going in before the Master with a plan for the
management of the charity, anti therefore he hail obtained a copy
of the caved, which he wished to hand up to the Court.
Mr. HART did not think this weighed a leather in the ease, as
the whole question in the matter depended upon the Act of Par-
liament.
His LnansniP desired to have the caveat handed up to him. In
consequence of understanding he would have had a particular en-
gagement this morning, lie yesterday desired notice to be sent to
the solicitors on both sides that judgment would not be given till
to•morrow; but as this new document had been produced, judg-
ment would have to stand for Friday. There were two or three
ways of considering this matter ; the question of jurisdiction was
certainly a very important question ; and another very serious
question was, whether upon the original petition, the Court ought
now to order the money into Court in whatever hands it was, that
it might be taken care of, and then leave the parties to. tile an in-
formation, upon which the question of jurisdiction would be en-
tirely set aside.
Mr. HART said he could have no objection to such a course, ex-
cept that the objects of the charity, who were now without breath,
would be still longer kept out of their rights.
Mr. SUGDYN said his clients (the defendants) had all along been
most anxious that the objects of the charity should be put into pos-
session of the benefits they are entitled to; and any person who
conveyed any other impression to his Lordship's mind, conveyed
that which was unfounded.
_

His Loansuir would say. without reference to the parish of
Sea ington. that if the Court had the power of saying how a cha-
rity should be distributed. it would never leave the distribution to
trustees to be annually appointed.

1100CSON V. HAWKINS.
This wint a ease of Pcpabbling between partners carrying on bu-
siness in Sheffield, which, when the Court heard, a few days ago,
hi. Irerdship recommended to be settled by arbitration. The mi-
nutes of the older Of reference were to-thy mentioned for the Court's
approbation ; the parties on both sides haring agreed to the inti-
mation of the Court to refer it.

His tounsitir referred all matters in dispute (including the
question whether the partnership war, or wait not,dissolved), with-
out any reflection en the character of either.

COMBINATIONS.

There appeirs little proOfriTof the seamen and ship-
awners of Sunderland soon having their dispute settled.—
The chief, if not the only cause of their remaining hostility
is, the claim thy sailors make of payment fur casting bal-
last, which their employers will not comply with. Whe-
ther this demand is well or ill founded, whether it is of
long standing or of modern date, is immaterial. But the
consequence of their refusing to etictere with the ship-
owacrs on any othcr terms than the payment for this bal-
tut is a Sc? iOll/1 inconvenience to a nutnerons body of the
community. Between 400 and 400 seamen are wholly un-
crlp!eyed, and they, with all their families, seem to have
na reliance for their subsistence except on the credit they
can obtain from shopkeepers. Their benefactors may me-
tes receive what thelf have advance:l, and they must them-
selves now, and fur a considerable time to come, suffer se-
rious privations. We do not wish to sec the rights of any
so of teen tramph d on, nor would we justify oppression
wherever it exisied. But without imputing it in this case,
it nu: lamentable to see so many ',mons thus warring
aerast their own interests, thus wasting their means of
subsistence, because they cannot obtain an allowance,
trifliag and contemptible, whether it is their due or not ?
Th..: shipowners, during this infatuation, have got men
from other quarters, and it seems not improbable the na-
tives msv be thus driven to other places to seek employ-
malt and a Lome.—Tyne lttercuyy.

GUILDHALL.

Sarah Manning, the young woman who made an attempt on her
life in the Court of Requests on Wednesday morning last, was
again brought up yesterday before Mr. Alderman Ansley.
The person whom she had accused of being the author of her un-
happiness now appeared, and gave his name Wm. Maroney. He
seemed extremely eager to remove front his character the odium of
being a seducer, and stated, that while he admitted an improper
connexion had subsisted between them, he must declare that what
had happened was the consequence of her own importunities and
want of all reserve. She had nearly been the ruin of hint. The
3!. for which she had summoned hint was made up of sums she had
squandered away in his company in coach hire, going to plays, &c.
although he had spent more that as much again at the same time.
He first became acquainted with her about eight months ago, and
she bad latterly refused to accept any place of service that was not
in the immediate neighbourhood of the Fenchurch-street tea-ware-
houses, where he was employed, so that she might have the oppor-
tunity of constantly haunting him. With regard to the money he
had been attached for, be had a witness who would prove he paid
it to her on the day the attachment issued, and made her a present
of a half sovereign besides.
. . .

A young man bore testimony to the latter circumstance, and
stated the transaction to have taken place in a public-house on
Monday evening last.
Maroney then produced a clasp knife, with which he declared the
prisoner had attempted to stab him, and expressed his thorough
conviction that if she was now set at liberty she would soon destroy
either him or herself. There was no doubt her mind was affected.
Mr. Alderman AMILMT inquired whether he had not, under a
promise of marriage, taken advantage of her confidence and attic.
tion—whether he did not in fact take her to some place and pretend
to put up the bans ?
Mooney solemnly denied it. All she had ever wanted of him
was to live with her, dispensing with all rites; but he could not
trust his life in the hands of a woman who had so little government
over her passions.
Mr. Alderman ANSLEY then asked if he could tell where any
of her relatives or acquaintances might be found, as the young
woman herself was unwilling or unable to throw any light upon that
subject ?
Marone" replied he had heard she had a cousin and a nephew in
London (indeed he was rather alarmed for the resentment of the
latter) ; but he hsd never learnt where any of hc: friends resided.
The prisoner seemed greatly recovered from the stupor with which
she was affected on the previous day,and she now at intervals became
so agitated that it was necessary to remove her from the bar several
times. She frequently interrupted Maroney's statement, but the
meaning of het denials could not be made out. Once, however.
she distinctly said, " You villain, I'll have your life or mine."
She was again remanded, In the hope of discovering her relations,
and to consider the best means of getting her back to Ireland, of
which abe is a native.

ri

Yesterday Robert RowbeUtane,;;;ii,W fellow very @timely at-
tired. was charged, on suspicion, with robbing a poor old man,
named Shontick, of various monies to the amount of 70!. and
upwards.
Mr. 11am, a livery stable-keeper, in Gray's Inn-lane, in whose
employ Shontick has been for four or five years, stated that tile
poor man had been so heart-broken by the discovery of his loss,
that he was confined to his bed, and was therefore unable to attend
in person ; and indeed there was some doubt that he would ever
recover the shock. Mr. Ilam then gave the following history of
the poor man's misfortunes :—Shontick is a native of one of the
German States, and many years ago came over to England in the
suite of a gentleman of rank, in whose service he amassed 150/.,
with which he proposed :eturning to his native country, there to
spend the residue of his days. for greater security he had induced
his master to become his banker, but unfortunately the gentleman
died suddenly, and with him perished the poor German's hopes of
independence ; he had taken no acknowlefignwnt for the money de-
posited in his master's hand, neither were there any documentsfound
to attest the justice of his claim, and the heir-at-law refusing to ac-
knowledge the demand, Shontick had to "begin the world"
again at a period of life when he should have been retiring.
Whit the cool philosophy of a German, he resolved to forget his
wrongs, and patien:ly set about creating a fret fund; the excel-
lence of his character, and the sobriety of his habits, soon procured
him another situation, where he likewise hoarded up his earnings
until they amounted to (Jul. ; he then changed his situation, and
was confidentially employed by Mr. Ham, where his vails and
wages were very considerable. The 60/. he deposited In the bottom
of his box, determined in future to be his own banker; front time
to time, he was in the habit of increasing his hoard by sundry small
NUM* of one, two, and three pounds, keeping the prospect of "sweet
home" loin in view. However, some days since, on visiting his trea-
sury, the poor fellow learned, to his utter dismay, that the casket had
been rifled—the $411., enclosed In a leathern bag, and several lesser
sums, curium,' y wrapped in piceesofpaper, had all vanished, and after
a long life of persevering lnductry and rigid frugality, he found
himself as poor as when be began. Thou blow wet too severe even
