CHILD DROPPING.—On Sunday evening' be
tweet' the hours of seven and eight o'clock,
constable, 206 K, while going round his beat in sing-
street, Old Gravel-lane, Wapping, discovered a
basket, which, on taking up, he found to contain a fine,
full-grown male child, well wrapped up, and protectea
from the cold. The policeman conveyed the child to
St. George's workhouse, where every attention wi.as
paid to it by the matron. It appears to be about ail
weeks old, and is in a very healthy state. No clue ba!
a police
been obtAined to the unnatural parent who has deserted
her offspring.
MR. J. G. VANDENHOFF.—The appearance
of Mr. J. G. Vandenhoff, son of the distinguished actor
of that name, on the Liverpool stage during the Pre;
sent week, has excited a greater sensation in theatria.
circles than any similar local event with which we are
familiar. On each night of his appearance the house
has been well attended, and the fall of the curtain
has been the signal for the most uproarious demonstra-
tions, which continued unremittingly, until the young
actor presented himself before the proscenium to receive
the marked compliments of his audience.—Liverpool
Chronicle.

DREADFUL MURDER OF A WIFE BY HER
HUSBAND.—On Monday evening the eastern district
.of
the metropolis was in a state of great commotion, in
oonsequence of a dreadful murder committed in the
house, No. 1, Lower Chapman-street, St. George's le
the East. The unfortunate victim is a young woman,
named Lees, the wife of a hair-dresser, who has carried
on business in the above house for about twelve months:
The parties have been on bad terms for some time, and
have frequently quarrelled. On Monday afternoon,
.1").•
tween the hours of three and four o'clock,
Witham
Lees, the murderer, closed his shop, and procproceeded to
the house of some relations at Islington. He seemed
in a very perturbed state, and communicated to his
relations that he had murdered his wife by eea,rlY.,
severing her head from her body with a razor. They
were horror-struck at his intimation, and for some time
disbelieved what he said ; but he repeated the dread'
ful tale so often, and his manner appeared so strange,
that they were induced to accompany him to big house'
where they found his story to be too true. (-!D
entering the shop they found the young well).,
lying stretched on the ground, which was covered sTu_
blood. There were several gashes on her face, and
deep wound in the throat, separating the jugular Youl.•
There was also a bruise on the right eyebrow, .which
appeared to have been inflicted by some blunt woo-
ment. The relations of the unfortunate deceased 'mune'
diately secured Lees, and sent off to the Denmark-
street station-house for assistance. The divisional sur-
geon of police soon afterwards attended, who said the
woman had been dead more than two hours. The body
will remain in the house in the custody of Serjeant
Graves of the K division, and policeman 190 K, until
the inquest is held. The murderer was taken to the
station-house, in Denmark-street, Ratcliff-highway.
His deportment was most extraordinary. He appeared
very unconcerned, and did not express any regret at
having committed the horrid deed. On being searched
a rope was found upon the prisoner, and on being asked
what he intended to do with it, his reply was that he
meant to hang himself with it, but afterwards altered
his intention. The deceased was about thirty years of
age, and her husband five years older.—Tuesday he wee
again brought up before the Magistrates at Queen-
squ,tre, and, after the depositions of several witnesses,
was committed to the New Prison, Clerkenwell. The
surgeon who examined the body of the murdered woman,
said that he found about her throat, face, and head eight
different wounds, but the deepest and most extensive
was on the left side of the throat, which severed all the
large vessels on that side of the neck, and caused almost
instantaneous death. The windpipe was also severed,
with the exception of a small piece in the posterior part.
There was a long and deep incised wound on the lower
lip, which completely divided it at the upper Part, and
terminated towards the left side. There were also t 5,,,.
severe wounds on the right cheek and one deep ail
behind the right ear. It was impossible the deceased
herself could have inflicted the wounds' particularly the
two which he had described, the one on the
and the
outer behind the ear
