A PUBLICAN FINED FOR UNLAWFUL SUNDAY
TRADING.—HEAVY PENALTY.—Mrs. Macarthy, the wife
of Dennis Macarthy, landlord of the Roseand Crown pub-
lichouse, in Star-street, Lower Shadwell, appeared to
answer a summons taken out against her husband by
Police-inspector Roberts. The defendant, who was for-
merly a sergeant of police, was charged with having his
house open for other purposes than the reception of travel-
lers on Sunday last before the hour of one o'clock in the
afternoon.

Timothy Cox, a police-sergeant, N 0.45 K, stated that at
Star-street and Wapping-wall, near
tBhoe cdlieonfeektnhdeo ann vicinity Sunday
soef. t r morningHe
last, he saw many drunken
men
went to the Rose and Crown.
There were men in the street outside intoxicated. On
entering the public house he found sixteen men in front of
the bar. Some of them were drunk. The landlord was
also there intoxicated. There were ten quart pots all con•
taining malt liquor, and two glasses on the bar counter in
front of the company. One man threw down his pot, which
contained beer. In answer to the magistrate, the witness
said that nine or ten of the men were drunk.
Mrs. Macarthy said her husband was not inebriated. He
was wry nervous and very ill, and he was so ill that he
could not attend to answer the summons against him.
James Fry, a police-constable, 411 K, confirmed the
statement of Cox, and said Dennis Macarthy, the landlord,
was the worse for liquor.

Mrs. Macarthy said the people who entered the house on
Sunday morning came from afire close by, and when the
door was opened for one man they all rushed in together.
Cox said there was a fire in Shadwell on Sunday morning
a half mile from the defendant's house, and in quite another
direction.

A former conviction of ss. and costs for a similar offence
was proved.
Mrs. Macarthy called her son, Charles Grinham, by her
first husband, and he admitted that he opened the door and
let in the 16 men.
The magistrate said there had been an impudent viola-
tion,of the law, and drunkenness encounged on a Sunday
morning. It was a bad case, and must be visited with
severity. He fined the defendant £5 and costs.
Mrs. Macarthy paid the money.

THE ST. HELEN'S INIURDER.—At the South Lan-
cashire Assizes yesterday, before Mr. Justice Willes,
James Clitheroe, 22, was indicted for the murder of Mary
Woods, a schoolmistress, at St. Helen's. It appeared that
the deceased and the prisoner had cohabited, and that on
the morning of the murder they were both found in bed
together, the deceased with her throat cut and quite dead,
the prisoner also having severe wounds in his throat.
When apprehended the prisoner said, `‘ We made it up to
cut our throats. She told me that the razor was in the
drawer under the looking-glass. I fetched the razor, got
into bed, and first cut my
throat." The jury, however,
found the prisoner guilty of having wilfully murdered the
deceased, and Mr. Justice Willes sentenced him to death.
Two CHICKZNS FOR EIGHT PERSONS.—Abandon
the boil-fowl fashion, and order a pair of fowls to b 3 sent
without being trussed, and let the heads and necks be sent
with them. Cut up one of the fowls into pieces, the leg and
thigh into two pieces, each wing into two pieces, the beck
into three pieces, and the breast into two pieces, which,
of onion,butt

du pa
with the merry thought, will be 14 pisses. Take a Spanish
simitatllel, put
cayenneit in
and salt; let it stow gentlyto a stewpan with two ounces
for about an hour, until it is in a complete pulp ; half an
hour before you wont it put in the 14 Pieces of chicken, let
them stew half au hour, and when done, put into your
silver dish a teaspoonful of Spanish or ?rench garlic vine-
gar, or if that is not liked, the squecza of half a lemon, and
you will never again want to taste insipid boiled fowl.
Mind, it requires IIJ water; the fowl will be done in its own
gyallyi•—Tho aentitwoman, .
