London, England, 1864-09-08 00:00:00

This morning, at ten o'clock, the jury empanelled to
inquire into the circumstances connected with the death of
Mr Thomas Briggs, who is alleged to have been murdered
by Franz Muller on the North London Railway, re-assem•
bled at the Town Hall, Hackney.

Mr Humphreys, the coroner, told the jury he need not
detain them more than a moment or two. Certain wit-
nesses whom ho should consider it necessary to examine
were at present on their way home from America, and were
expected to arrive early next week. He should therefore
suggest that the further consideration of the case should be
adjourned until the morning of Monday, the 19th inst.
The proposal was at once assented to by the jury, and
the court adjourned.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.,

-

MARLEOROUGII-STREET.

ROBBERY or JEWELLERY.—Frederick; Skinner, porter,
iu the employ of Mr James Meade, of No. 22, Davies-
street, Berkeley-square, was chat god with stealing some
rings, brooches, and other articles of the value of £3O, the
property of his employer.
Mrs Meade said that on going to a safe kept in a back
room on the first floor, she missed a quantity of jewellery
and two silver snuff boxes. Her husband had been lying
dangerously ill at an hotel, and always kept his keys, in-
cluding that of the safe, under his pillow. The prisoner
was in the habit of going backwards and forwards, and it
was by that means she believed the prisoner had got access
to the safe, it evidently having been opened with a key, and
there being no marks of violence about it.

The prisoner said he would rather say what he had to say
when he came up again.

A smartls -dressed young woman said the prisoner gave
her a brooch and pin, stating that he had bought them.
Mrs Meade identified the articles as her husband's
property.

Shore, an officer from Scotland-yard, said that he had
discovered a ring to have bgen pledged at Westminster,
which Mrs Meade had also identified.

The young woman said the prisoner also gave her a
uaex, and, as sno thought
he was going to give it to another young woman, she
pledged it.

Shore asked for a remand, which was granted.

THAMES.

DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT OF A MARRIED WOMAN.—
Mary Alexander, a married woman, was charged before
Mr Partridge with the following disgraceful conduct in
Heath-street, Stepney:--

It appeared that the prisoner, who lived at 93, Heath-
street, with her husband, came home last night about 7
o'clock. She was in a dog cart, and as she came down the
street she waived a handkerchief the whole distance.
When she got near her own house she got out of the
vehicle and raised her crinoline in a very improper manner.
She then danced round the cart, and collected a crowd of
nearly 200 persons. She then picked up some granite Amos
which she flung among the crowd.

Police constable 119 li was then obliged to take the pri-
soner into custody.
Several of the neighbours came forward who stated that
the prisoner was often in the same way, and of causing a
disturbance in the street.

Inspector Hays said that a few weeks ago the prisoner
was sent by Mr Paget for a month to the House of Correc-
tion for a similar offence.

The prisoner was find 405,, or in default, one month's
imprisonment.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a fair average supply of beasts on sale here
to-day, but the general quality of the stock was inferior.
All breeds of beasts moved off slowly, at Monday's currency.
The few Scots on show realised fully 5s per 81bs. Sheep—
the number of which was seasonably good— were a dull
inquiry, on former terms. The best Downs produced 5s 4d
per Sibs. We were well supplied with calves, which com-
manded less attention. Prices, however, were supported.
The top figure was 4s 10d per 81bs. Prime small pigs were
quite as dear as last week, In large hogs very little was
doing. Mulch cows were a dull inquiry.
