ing was held in the British Institution, Cowper-street, Gity.
road, for the purpose of sympathizing with, and aiding the

THE MELANCHOLY END OF ANDERSON, THE
CLowN.—Yesterday evening, ➢lr. William Payne held an
inquest at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, on the body of George
Anderson, a celebrated clown and pantomimist, well known
at the metropolitan theatres, who committed suicide on Sun-
day morning last, by leaping from a second-floor room win-
dow. The deceased, who was 34 years of Ewe. some years
ago, in the course of ills performance, received a deep cut in
his head, which might have disordered his brain. The jury
returned a verdict of Accidental Death.

DEATH OF A GENTLEMAN OF FORTUNE.—Yester-
day Mr. Wakely, the coroner, held an inquest in the draw-
ing-room of Gloucester Villa, Gloucester Gate, Regent's Park
on the body of Mr. Charles Cadman, aged 54, carrying on
an extensive business as timber-merchant at Poplar. The
inquiry was interesting from some peculiar circumstances
connected with deceased. He is reported to have died worth
a princely fortune, without a relative in the world. He was
a single gentleman, and had as his sole companion for the
last 16 years a gentlemen named Mr. Alpheus Carpenter
Billings, who is the 'whole executor to his will, and with
whom he resided at Gloucester Villa, which is furnished in
the most costly style, and the walls covered with paintings
of a most rare and valuable description. The jury returned
a verdict to the effect that the deceased died from disease of
the heart and extravasation of blood on the brain.

SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday an inquest was held
before Mr. Baker, the coroner, at the Prince Regent, Lime-
house-fields, on the body of Michael Eden, aged 65 years,
who was found dead in a chair. The jury were of opinion,
that the deceased had died a natural death, but returned an
open verdict of Found Dead."

SUSrECTED SUICIDE IN TEIE RIVER LEA.—Yester-
day afternoon an inquest was taken by Mr. W. Baker, the
coroner, at the Five Bells public-house, Three Colt street,
Limehouse, on the body of a male person unknown, who it
was supposed had committed suicide, from want and desti-
tution. The jury, in the absence of positive testimony, re-
turned a verdict of " Found dead in the river Lea."

SUSPECTED MURDER By POISON IN EssEx.--In
consequence of a report that a woman named Sarah Lister,
who died two years and a half since at North Ockenden,
village about six miles from Brentwood, had come to her
death by unfair means, an enquiry was set on foot, which
resulted in suspicion being attached to her husband, James
Lister, a farm labourer, who now acts as ostler at the White
Hart public-house in the neighbourhood, and who is about
40 years of age. Oa Friday last the body, which was in a
state of decomposition, was disinterred, and the stomach
removed for analysis by Professor Taylor. A coroner's jury
subsequently met at the White Hart, where it appeared from
the evidence that the pains suffered by the deceased at her
death closely resembled those which are caused by poison,
and that the accused was often in the habit of ill-using her.
The inquiry was adjourned for a few days, until Professor
Taylor makes his report.
ANOTHER SLIP ON THE GREAT NORTHERN RAIL..
WAY.—Early yesterday (Monday) morning, another slip of
