Esq. wrote to one of the burgesses, stating, that on account
of ill health he should decline corning forward at the next

The horror of survivors, anxiously inquiring for their

PORTIMOUTH, THURSDAY.
Yesterday watt the day appointed for launching his Ma-
jesty's ship princess Charlotte. A liner launch was never
witnessed; but the melancholy
„liceident we are about to
record caused a dejection that ." not easily be effaced.
To approach the dock wherein Charlotte lay, it was
necessary to cro::34 of flood-
gates, which s that in
which the r

mentary scene exertions of
individuals were, howevet, . a few moments displayed,
particularly by some officers, who dived repeatedly, and in
one or two instances were anccesardl i 1 bringing bodies to
the surface. These were instantly carried to the surgery,
where, we may say in a few moments, hot baths and warm
bedding were in readiness; and, by the prompt exertions
of Dr. Porter and Dr. Martell, stfrgeons, assisted by many
others of the faculty, the lives Of six individuals were (re-
served. No meed of praise can do these individuals jus-
tice, particularly tha two medical, irentlemen. Those re-
stored to life were—Mr. Sabine, of Porves ; Mrs. Mitchell
and her daughter; a soldier, wife; 'his sister aced child.
The names of the persona whose,bidles hate been as yet
found are—Mr. Hart; Miss Hut, his daughter; Mr.
Hart's nephew; Miss Froggeu, aged sio Miss Knight,
aged 18 ; Miss Knight, aged 14; Stanfield, tl man belong-
ing to the Customs; a man named Showers; Nineliam,
a boy, aged 14 ; another boy, aged 14; Mr. Hawse, aged
5:3; a son of Mr. Taylor, the painter, aged 13; a chilli
named Bull, aged 2; a boy named Leal, aged 12; a servant
in livery, belonging to Mrs. Oriblint, of Bloomfield.
Every exertion is making, by order of the proper autho-
rities in the yard, to procure the other bodies. Mtn ate

possible in the present state of the full tides to drain off the

was soon taken out withut,tlie least injury, and restored
to its astonished mother, who, it would appear, was so
frightened at the dreadful sight she witnessed, that she
dropped her child into the water.
It is impossible to calculate on the numbers that still
may be in the Dock, for those who have been found do not
seem by any means to constitute the amount of persons'
who were on the bridge. There is only one application
for a missing body ; but when it is to be recollected that,
the notice of this melancholy business cannot as yet have
reached any distance, and the masses of people in the
Dock-yard that day were from the farthest parts of the,
kingdom, there is but too much-raison to suppose that to-
morrow
will bring more distreqing
It is supposed that not less than 40,000 people witnessed I

Leopsld. At any other time I shoujd be disposed to give
'you every particular of the ceremony, but this distressing
accident has deprived it of all its interest, except a melan-
chc;y, remembrance. I shall he rare to address you again
to-morrow, if bodies are found, and give you all parti-
culars. )ALT-PACT
The Jury have returned a verdict on the bodies found—
" Accidentally drowned."
This afternoon a boat, eentsining sixteen boys, employed

No less than four suicides have taken place at different

FISHING EITRAORPI24•RY.-The ,River above bridge
on Thursday pew.enteti a onset. 'Katie of motley stoups
engaged in fish taking, by divers expedients not contem-i
plated by the statute for that purpose made and provided.
he late heavy rains caused the river to be much swollen,
in some parts overflowing its banks, and threatening the
adjacent level with a visit similar to that experienced two
or three years back, so ranch to the discomfiture of thelive
and dead stock of every discription upon the neighbouring
pi-emises. At the turn of the side the heavy swell,. acting
in conjunction, as Is supposed, with the thunder-etbrm
of the preceding day, produced a strange effect upon the
fish. They rose in shoals to the surface of the water, and
although they did not go the length which fowls and. tur-
keys are represented to do in some Countries, exhibiting
themselves ready codked, Crying" mine eat me," they al-
lowed themselves to be taken in great numbed by any
hand that deemed thew, worth the trouble of capture. In
this manner many pailints were caught ; and so attrac-
tive was the sport, that every hamlet and manufactory on
the banks of the river above Lambeth was deserted, and
every boat manned for the purpose. Business was entirely
nt a stand : the turn-out was general, and the most un-
sportsmanlike, and, in some instances, diverting schemes
were practised to profit by the favouroble opportunit)i.
Pails, sieves, soup-ladles, and other descriptions of domes-1
tic implements, were variously, employed by the women
and children on the banks. A boat load of men, each
armed with a sieve, was very:successful, and made a good
haul. In one part whets toe bank was made higher thah
its natural elevatitht by a brick wall, sonic men wsre seen
angling with one of their own number, whom they tower-
ed by the heels, to the great peril of his hest!. In the cen-
tre of the riier, well-appointed cutters, manned by six or
eight oars, suspended the progress of their journey for a
season, allowing themselves to be earricit down with the
stroam, actively engaged on both sides in taking the invit-
ing prey. Flounders and eels formed the majority of the
fish secured by these means. Barbel, dac,-, and other va-
rieties, were, h0wcv.,..7, aimiErly

She and her,husband lived at 20, Church-street, St. Giles's, as man
and wife. They appeared to live comfortably together. About
two donths.before the male prisoner and his wife left that residence,
the female prienner, Ellen Lyons, came from Ireland. She was
first cousin to the deceased, and lived along with her and Welch.
They all retpc9ed from Church-street to Little Turnstile, Holborn.
On she Tuesday before Mary Welch died I called to see her. She

he was trying to bring her up, when she put her foot on the stairs,
and fell back on some tiles which were lying on one :tide of the door.
After thiertxplanatiee I cut off the deceased's heir, and said I .
would go to the searchers and give an slam?, in consequence of see. l'
Ing a cut on the head. with lint in it, and observing a great deal of
blood on the hair.. I examined the bed, and there was some blood
on it, which the prOjener Lyons said, proceeded from the head,
when the deceased first came up,stairs. There was an appearance
of some flour having been shaaen (tier the hair. I proceeded to
lay out the body and then applied to the searchers, who cajne the
following morning. Lyons was present, and in answer to a question
from them, observed" the deem/ed• had been ill a long time; but
she did not know what watthe matter with her." Lyons took off
the cap from the deceased's head, but did not show the cut. After
this I went to the house to attend the funeial. This was on the
Sunday; but the funeral did not take place in consequence of Mr.
Kennedy's preventing it. On Sunday I saw the body in the coin!)
when the two prisoners were present. Mr. Kennedy was also there,
and wen; over to the body, placed his finger in the cut, and said,
" the SOLI Shoull not take place that day." The prisoner
Welch said, "he had no business to prevent him burying his
wife." That was all Welch said, and then Kennedy went out to
fetch the beadle. Kennedy is the landlord of the Black Horse. i
When I saw the deceased, on the Tuesday before her death, she
was speechless. . .

Sunday before elle died about agree or four In the afternoon.' Thii
was the 26th June. I had met Welch, and he asked me to go see
his wife, and I readily went. I found her sitting up in the bed,'
and she appeared glad to see me. She was better than when I had i
last seen her. Welch was iotoxicated, Prisoner Lyons was there.
, She let me in, and then went up into the room with us. Mrs.
Welch said somebody had stolen her gown; and cloak, and said,
if I lent her some of mipe, she would come and see next
dal." She farther added, " she had something to tell mc." Before
,this occurred, and on another day, the deceased had said, in the
,presence of %Vetch, that "she was mealjealous of her husband
lead Lyons." At that time 1 thought the deceased our of her mind.'
When she said an the Sunday she had something to tell me. she
did .not appear to be very steady. 1 staid with the deceathd till
about six o'clock. A men of the mime of Slack was with her. On
the Tuesday following Welch came to me, and said "his wife was
very ill, and he had brought the ciergymaa to prepare her." I
went, and Mrs. Donovan with me. Lyons vas there. The de-
ceased was speechless. I went to lift her up in the bed, and fetind
a handkerchief rirand her head. I asked the reason of it, and
Lyons replied, " it was beer:use her head had been light," but
made no mention of any cut or injury which Mrs. Welch had re-
ceived on het head. On the i riday after, Welch came and told me
his wife was almost dead. In consequence of this I went to see
her about twelve o'clock. The deceased appeared very ill, and
could neither speak nor move. She died between one and, tvo in
my Presence. Welch was not in the room at the time, but I sent
for Lim, and he came, when I told him his wife was dead. I
think at the .time he had his working dress (a fustian jacket) on.
I toll him I wished Mrs. Donovan to be present when I washed
the bogy. Prisoner said, " you can do it yourself." During this
conversation, Dint. Donovan came in, and waisted me in cow.-
quence. Before, we proceeded to wash the body, Welch told tia,
that "or. the Sunday night be was tipsy, and in attempting to
carry the deceased up stairs, she fell out of his.arms with her head
agatnet.some filet when she received the iajury in the head." Mrs.
Donovan pointed' pit to me nimbi of blood on the neck of the
deceased, and also On the bed and bolster. Lyons said Me,, Welch
bad purged it out of her mouth. I observed some tiles standing at
the side et the door. I can't tell whether there were any broken
tiles among them. Millet we were employed in washing the body,
: layens kept her hand placed on the back of the deceasen's head. I
wished to turn the body. in artier to wash the head, but Lyons said
" there was no occasion." Alm. Donovan turned the body on the I
raide,, and discovered the injury on the back of the head. As soon
,as she.. saw it, Mrs. Donovan called out that " the woinan was I
murdered," and went into a fainting fit. I then Raw the wound

deal of blood was about it ; the hair around- the, wound was also
bloody. When I perceived the Woand I stopped wishing the body. i
and said, " I should do no more till the searchers had seen thei
body." I went to them, and found the') could not corns till the '
next day. The prisoner-Welch went about his work.. The corpse'
was to have been Interred on Sunday, but Mr. Kennedy pre-
rented it. . • i
