GUILPHALL.-1 fr. Grafton, a watchmaker and
manufacturing jeweller of Fleet-street, attended before
Mr. Alderman Copela3 id, to answer the charge of Mr.
George Alexander, a I gentleman residing in Warwick-
place, Pimlico, for deft; luding him, by selling to him as
a gold link chain, one 3 nade of some other and inferior
metal.

Mr. Alexander statei 1 that, a short time Erince, in pass-
ing through Fleet-strei 3t, a chain, ticketed as " gold,"
for under 205., attract 3d his notice. He went in and
looked at it. A very t ;mall key was attached, and he
said he should like a la rger one. A bowl of keys was
handed to him,! and he selected one. He asked if
they were gold keys, and the defendant said they
were, and that the ;rice of the key selected would
be 30s. However, after some bargaining, Mr.
Grafton agreed to La e 2/. for the chain and key. He
(complainant) afterwai •ds showed them to a friend, who
on examination alleged . they were not gold, and having
by inquiry at several s hops ascertained that the key was
a gold one, and the ch ain was not, he went back to Mr.
Grafton's to insist it pon having his money returned.
Mr. Grafton turned g sway, and, appearing to test the
chain, returned it to the complainant with the remark
that it was quite go, od enough. Complainant had it
tested again, and cat led once more, but Mr. Grafton
treated the matter wit h the utmost indifference, and re-
fused to return the mo ney. Complainant after that went
to France, and seeing, upon his return, a report in the
newspapers of the n Ise of the jewellers on Ludgate-
hill, who returned th e money they had received for a
couple of spurious gO Id chains, he called again on Mr.
Grafton, and referrix g him to the newspaper report,
required him to talc(; back the chain and return the
2/. Mr. Grafton dec lined to accede to that, and com-
plainant then proposed to refer the decision of the

Mr. A'Beckett asked the defendant why he did not
have his bedclothes washed, as nothing could be more
unwholesome, or more calculated to engender fevers and
other infectious diseases, than allowing his lodgers to
sleep amongst such filth and dirt as represented by the
officer.

The defendant, in a strong Irish brogue, said that in-
deed his bedclothes were not so dirty ; that they were of
a very dark colour, and that made them look rather
dingy when the sergeant visited the rooms. The bed-
clothes were old, and had had a good deal of wear and
tear, and he supposed he must be at the expense of get-
ting new ones. He, therefore, hoped the magistrate
would let him off easy.
Mr. A.'Beckett said that he was glad to hear a favour-
able account of the manner in which the common lodg-
ing-houses in this district were conducted since these
excellent regulations had been carried out by the persons
appointed for that purpose, and that a marked improve-
ment had taken place in those houses, which previously
were conducted in a disgraceful and filthy manner. The
magistrate then inflicted the mitigated penalty of ss. and
costs on the defendant, who was warned not to offend
again. _

-A
donation of 201. was received from the Grocers'
Company for the poor-box of this Court.

THAMES.—The Grocers' Company have forwarded
a donation of 201. for the poor-box of this Court.

fact as to whether the article was gold or not to a master
and workman, and M] Grafton appearing to assent; the
complainant called ni ext day with a, working jeweller,
expecting Mr. Grafton t to call down one of his workmen.
They, however, differs in limine as to what was to be
determined, Mr. Gras :ton wishing the whole dispute to
be left to their arbitration, while the complainant would
only submit to them • the ascertaining whether it was a
gold chain or not. Ir. Grafton, however, offered to
take back the chain, a nd return only U. Complainant
would not agree to tl ds, when Mr. Grafton's shopman
proposed that it shout d be exchanged for a higher priced
one on payment of tt Le difference, but the complainant
adhered to his first I )roposition of returning both chain
and key, and having l us money again.
Mr. Blandford, a w orking jeweller, was then called,
who deposed that the value of the chain was about 4s.
Mr. Alderman Co: peland asked if witness new any-
thing of the rate of pr ofit laid on by retailers ?
Witness said yes ; some would, be content with 75.,
and others might chus rge 14s.
Cross-examined—B :e could make such chains for less
than 15s. each ; peril aps for ss.
The chain being neighed and found to balance 41
sovereigns, the witra ss said that a gold chain of that
weight would be wor th 61.
Mr. Weston, of (jhurch-street, Pimlico, stated that
the articles in questi on were not pure gold.
Mr. Alderman C opeland asked if the articles were
electrotyed or plated L.
The witness could l not say ; but he valued the key at
155., and always m •ked his own goods as cased or plated,
if they were not go
Mr. Alderman C o peland said that since he had heard
the charge against ti to Messrs. Benson he had received
from twenty to thiti ;y letters in a day, complaining of
similar fraudulent t ransactions elsewhere ; and when
shopkeepers had the . hardihood to ticket as gold, at 255.,
articles which they purchased by the gross at is. 6d.
each, the whole question assumed such a serious aspect
that he should not be: justified in disposing of this com-
plaint without consideration. It was sworn in this case
that the ticket was ix larked "gold."
The summons was • then adjourned sine die, on the un-
derstanding that all F parties were to receive due notice of
the further examinati on.

CLERKENWELL.—Five shllings were forwarded
to Mr. Tyrwhitt for the poor-box from the Bloomsbury
County Court; a 51. note, No. R. T. 29,577, 2d Nov.,
from "E. C.," was also sent. The following letter was
also handed to our reporter, viz. :—" Grocers' Hall,
Dec. 23. Sir,—l am directed by the Court of Assistants
of the Grocers' Company to request that the accompany-
ing donation of 201. may be placed in the poor-box at
the Clerkenwell Police-office.—l have the honour to be,
sir, your very obedient servant, Henry Bicknell.—To the
presiding magistrate at the Clerkenwell Police-office."

Mr. Alderman Copeland acknowledged the receipt 9f
20/. for the poor-box from the Grocers' Company.

WORSHIP-STREET. fan Parrott, a jobbing
butcher, about sixty years of age, who stood charged with
the wilful murder of his wife, Sarah Parrott, was placed
at the bar before Mr. Hammill for final examination.

Rebecca Beer, an intelligent little girl, nine years of age,
the daughter of the landlady of a house in Spicer-street,
Bethnal-green, in the upper part of which the prisoner
and his deceased wife had occupied a room, stated that
at an early hour in the morning of Wednesday, the Bth
instant, she was alarmed by a violent uproar in the pri-
soner's apartment, accompanied by screams of murder
and terrified exclamations from his wife, which conti-
nued without interruption for upwards of an hour, at
the expiration of which time she was desired by her
mother to proceed to their room to ascertain the cause
of the disturbance. On reaching the first landing, how-
ever, she heard the prisoner's wife, groaning in such a
dreadful manner that she was afraid to proceed any
further, and entered the apartment of mother lodger.
She had only been there a short time when the cries of
distress were renewed with increased violence • but after
lasting about a minute, they suddenly ceased altogether,
and immediately afterwards she heard the door open, and
the prisoner rapidly descended the stairs and hurried out
of the house. Everything remained perfectly quiet during
the rest of the day, and nothing was seen or heard of the
prisoner's wife until the same evening, when she was found
lying in a corner of the room perfectly lifeless.
James Ede, a lodger in the house, stated that on the
night before the fatal occurrence he was disturbed by a
low moaning from the deceased, who was lying outside
the street door, and whilst the wife of witness was ques-
tioning her as to the cause of her evident extreme suffer-
ing, the prisoner suddenly made his appearance, and,
after harshly ordering her to return to their room, ex-
claimed with an oath, " I will give you something to-
morrow for this." The deceased, who appeared greatly
excited and terrified, then accompanied him up stairs,
and witness never saw her again alive.
Police-constable Chapman H 38, stated that after
repeated unsuccessful attempts to trace the prisoner, who
had absconded from his residence shortly after his wife's
death, he at length accidentally met him in the street,
and took him into custody. On asking him if his name
was Parrott, the prisoner boldly answered in the negative,
and having then charged him with the murder of his wife,
he positively declared that he knew nothing at all about
it. On their way to the station-house, however, the
prisoner admitted that he was the man he wanted, and
on witness remarking that "it was a bad job for him,"
he replied, "Oh yes, but I have got over all that at the
inquest."

The prisoner, who displayed an air of callous indiffer-
ence, was committed to Newgate for trial.

LAMBETH.—Mr. Fernandez, the keeper of a coffee-
house in the Waterloo-road, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Elliott. on a charge of robbing Mr. Henry Allen of
11 sovereigns.
The complainant, a young man of gentlemanly appear-
ance, who described himself as a surgeon, residing at
Brighton, deposed that, on the day before, he had drank
much more freely than he was accustomed to, and the
consequence was that, about six o'clock in the evening,
he became exceedingly drowsy and sleepy, and asked a
policeman to procure him a lodging, where he could
have a few hours' sleep. The constable took him to the
house of the prisoner, and he was shown into a bedroom,
where he lay down in his clothes. Before going to
sleep he counted his money, and found that he had 14 sove-
reigns and 10s. in silver, and he subsequently heard the
prisoner come into the room as often as four or five times.
The last time the prisoner came into his room he asked
him the time of night, and he replied one o'clock. He
then asked him to get a bottle of porter, and on taking
out his purse to give him the money for it he missed 11
of the 14 sovereigns. He instantly charged the prisoner
with robbing him, and subsequently gave him into the
custody of a policeman.
In reply to the questions of the magistrate,
The prosecutor said that, after counting the sovereigns
he put them back into his left-hand trousers pocket.
He was considerably affected with drink, but not so much
so as to be totally incapable of taking care of himself,
and bad he been able to distinguish that the house was
a coffee-shop, he should not have gone there. He sup-
posed he went to sleep, but this he could not undertake
to say positively, but was quite certain he saw the pri-
soner come into the room four or five times.
In cross-examination Mr. Allen said that he was
stopping at Miller's Hotel, in the Blackfriars-road, and
that he was not aware that he was near his hotel when

he asked a policeman in the Waterloo-road to procure
him a temporary lodging. On leaving his hotel between
eleven and twelve o'clock on Wednesday forenoon, he
took fourteen sovereigns and some silver out with him.
He had been in the company of two females from one to
five o'clock, and during a part of that time he had stood
in front of the bar of a public house, and treated them to
drink. He had some soda and brandy himself, and sub-
sequently accompanied his companions to a house of ill-
fame. He parted with both at the door of the house,
1 and it was soon after that he met the policeman, and
asked him to get him a lodging. He had his coat and 1
great-coat on while stayingat the prisoner's, and thought I
the latter was buttoned up.
Stephen Perrin, L 156, said that about six o'clock on
the preceding evening he saw the last witness on his beat,
leaning against a railing. He seemed much the worse
for liquor, complained of excessive drowsiness, and asked i
him to procure him a lodging, as he lived a long way off. 1
He then took him to the house of the prisoner, who
offered him a bed, and he desired to be called at nine ,
o'clock, saying at the same time he was stopping at Mil- i

SOUTHWARK.---Joseph Einns, a common lodging-
house keeper, in Kent-street, was summoz,ied for ne-
glecting to furnish his lodgers with clean and wholesome
bedding, to avert disease.
Sergeant Wright, inspector of common lodging-houses
in this district, stated that he visited the defendant's
house between three and four o'clock in the morning,
when the lodgers were in bed. There were six sleeping
rooms, each of which contained a number of occupants,
and on examination he found that the bedding on each
bed was in the most ragged and filthy condition, quite
sufficient to engender disease. The stench arising from
such a multiplication of causes was of the most intolera-
ble description, and he was glad to make a precipitate
retreat from the place. He added that the defendant
had another house which he let out as a common lodg-
ing-house, and which was generally occupied by a class
of persons denominated " trampers," who travelled about
from place to place, and had no settled home of their
own.

[ADVERTISEMENT]—DEAFNESS—.NEW DISOOVE ItY.-
39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, observe, opposite the
York Hotel. The Organic Vibrator, an extraorc linary
powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafness,
entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of
the kind that has been, or probably ever can be, pro-
duced. Being of the same colour as the skin, it i s not
perceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at
church and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant £ lensa-
tion of singing noises in the ears are entirely removed ;
and it affords all the assistance that possibly could be
desired. The Royal Exhibition--Valuable new ly-in-
vented, very small, powerful Waistcoat-pocket Glass, the
size of a walnut, to discern minute objects at a distance
of from four to five miles, which is found to be invaluable
for yachting, and to sportsmen, gentlemen, and game-
keepers. Telescopes, possessing such extraordinary
power that some, 34 inches, with an extra eye-pieces, will
show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the
double stars. They supersede every other kind, and are
of all sizes, for the waistcoat-pocket, shooting, military
purposes, &c. Opera and Race-course Glasses with won-
derful power; a minute object can be clearly seen from
10 to 12 miles distant. Invaluable newly-invented
Spectacle.--S. and B. Solomons, aurists and opticians,
39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, observe, opposite the
York Hotel.
