MYSTERIOUS DEATH IN THE THAMES.—Yes-
terday a long inquiry was
gonet_sitnrtht, beforeu Mr.
Bedford, at the Compasses,
87thnn°r;
u
Square, relative to the death of Mr. William m‘A.
aged 39, clerk to Mr. Linklater, ono of the commissioner;
of the Bankruptcy Court, whose body was found under the
following mysterious circumstances :—The deceased lived
at 23, Kensington-place, Kensington, On Christmas-day,
he and his wife left home to take a walk.
They
as the KinE,, William the Fourth, where they
went
tt
in to as far
take some refreshment, and they left there between nine
and ten o'clock. The deceased, who had been drinking,
parted from his wife, and nothing more was heard of him
till the next morning, when ho was found drowned near
Rune steps which descended into the water. Several of the
witnesses complained that these steps were very dangerous,
and the landlord of the William the Fourth stated that he
had saved the lives of some Lersons who had fallen through
them. The jury returned a verdict of " Found drowned
evidence to show," and the jury requested the coroner to
to the Waterman's Company asking them to put the
steps in question in a secure state, they being under the
control of that company.
The forests which surround the valley of the
Rhine forests
now more full of snines than they have
toen
d ist for many years, a fact which the country people in
thatdistrict consider as an omen that the winter will not
be very severe. The sportsmen, on the other hand, find
t
..hiares and partridges scarce, while foxes are more numerous
aan usual,
Nfr. Paul Morphy, the celebrated chess player,
has arrived in Paris, having slipped through the
ilnkade, and reached Europe by way of the Havanuah.
