” SOHN GRESWOLD. By the author of" Paul
Ferroll."—A new novel by the author of " Paul Ferroll "
needs little recommendation to the readers of that work.
" John Greswold" will at once be perused with avidity by
all the author's numerous admirers. It is a story told with
all that remarkable power in the deseripjon of stirring in-
cidents, combined with vivid portrayal of character with
which the writer's former productions have made us fami-
liar, and has a further charm in the many touches of true
and natural pathos which enrich its pages. " John Gres-
wold" will take high rank amongst the most attractive
novels that have appeared this season.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH STREET.
CHARGE OF ASSAULTING Mk. WINDHAM.—Emma
Yarnold, a young woman, was placed at the bar, before
Mr Knox, charged with assaulting Mr. W. F. Windham,
of Upper Westbourne•terrace.
On the case being called on, Mulcahy, 42 C, stated that
Mr Windham was not in attendance, although he pro-
mised to attend.
Mr Knox inquired of the constable the nature of the
case ; and Mulcahy said that about three o'clock this
morning he saw a number of women following Mr. Wind-
ham about in Piccadilly. Mr Windham gave the young
woman in charge for annoying hint, and she then slapped
his face three times, - Mr Windham then charged her
with assaulting him.
Mr Knox asked the constable whether the young woman
stated why she was following Mr. Windham.
Mulcahy said the young woman stated that Mr Wind_
ham, while in the Haymarket, knocked her about, and tore
her dress.

Mr Knox inquired of the constable whether Mr Wind,
ham was sober,

Mulcahy said Mr Windham seemed very excited.
Mr Knox observed that, as Mr Windham was not present,
he should discharge the young woman; but if Mr Wind-
ham subsequently came, and th)ught proper to do so, he
could tako out a summons against her.

THAMES,
GIRIBILDIAN QVARREL.—PoIice-constable Lebbell,
No. 398 K, made a communisation to Mr. Partridge, Lt
11 o'clock this day that a man named John Coghlan, who
was wounded on the night of Saturday, the 9th of April,
was dying in the London Hospital, and that it was consi-
dered necesssary by the medical officers of the institution.
that his deposition should be taken forthwith.
Mr. Partridge asked if the case had not been investi-
gated by his colleague, Mr. Paget ?
Lebbell replied in the affirmative. A man named William
Simmons, a coffeehouse-keeper, of Carr-street, Limehouse,
was remanded by Mr. Paget for a week on a charge of
wounding the man on the knee with a chopper, which he
threw at him, There had been a discussion among some
men in Simmons's coffee-house, about Garibaldi, and one
man exclaimed, "d--- the Pope I" Coghlan interfered;
a row ensued, and Simmons took up a chopper, which he
threw at Coghlan, and it struck him on the knee. The
man's leg had been since amputated. He was dying fast,
and not expected to survive many hours.
Mr Partridge said he would proceed this afternoon to the
hospital, and receive the deposition of the unfortunate man.
He directed the constable to proceed to the Clerkenwell
House of Detention, and fetch the prisoner to the hospital,
that he might hear the evidence of Coghlan,

" JOHN GRESWOLD. By the author of "Paul

needs little recommendation to the readers of that work.
" John Greswold" will at once be perused with avidity by
all the author's numerous admirers. It is a story told with
all that remarkable power in the description of stirring in-
cidents, combined with vivid portrayal of character with
which the writer's former productions have made us fami-

liar, and has a further charm in the many touches of true
and natural pathos which cnrieh its pages. " John Gres-

Murphy, who was pointed to 135 deceased as the man who
had stabbed him, into cuEtody. He asked him if he had a
knife, and he said yes, and produced the clasp knife from
his pocket. Deceased was conveyed to St. Mary's Hospital,
whhere he lingered until Saturday last, where he died, as
the medical testimony proved, from the effects of the wound.
After explaining the law as relating to murder, man-
slaughter, and justifiable homicide, the coroner said it would
have been well if the accused party could have been there
to have heard the evidence against him, and if the jury
thought an adjournment necessary, as the man Murphy
was not committed, he had no doubt MrYardley, the magis-
trate would consent to his doing so.
After some discussion the Jury cmsidered the presence
of the accused and further evidence indispensable, and the
inquiry was with that object adjourned till Monday next,

of price in the markets of the world, which gave a geoj'ai,
impetus to manufacturing activity, and proved a materl4

meet thus afforded has been found effective in':
stimulating the productive energies of other colla°
