HATTON-GARDEN.

Yesterday Ursula Dunetare, a well-looking girl, nineteen
years of age, was placed at the bar, charged by Mr. Lloyd,
cornehandler, of No. 66, Gray's Inn-lane. The prosecutor
stated that the prisoner was his servant, and she had been
so three months. Yesterday morning, about two o'clock,
witness and his family were awoke out of their sleep by a
police constable, who informed him that his doors were
open, and on searching the house, the prisoner was missing.
The witness remained up, and in the course of the morning
the prisoner returned to the house, and was taken into
custody.

Radley, 165 G Division, had frequently seen the prisoner
walking about the streets at three and four o'clock in the
morning. •
Mr. LAING asked the prosecutor whether he had missed
any property ? Mr. Lloyd had not. The prisoner was an
industrious servant, and he had received her into his service
on the strongest recommendation from the Rev. Mr. Tep-
ton, and other respectable individuals. He had taken her
from the Penitentiary, Millbank, where she had been a
prisoner.
Mr. LAING inquired what offence the prisoner had been
convicted of? Mr. Lloyd said that she was convicted •,)(1
sentenced to death for robbing a church in Northampton-
shire, bother sentence was commuted, and she was sent to
the Penitentiary, where her exemplary conduct attraetttd
attention. He had given her the greatest encouragement,
and took her out with his family on the Sunday afternoon.
The prisoner cried, but said nothing its her defence.
Mr 'LAING' said it Wai evident that the prisoner pre-
ferred a life of dissipation to one of industry ; and told the
prosecutor that he ought not for his own safety to retain her
anlongeri
certainly
in
cheissainly
crvice.
Mr. Lloyd should hot ; and the prisoner was
discharged.

MARY 1,,k,9 SEDUCTION AN N*.
D iMUV*IA IClDE.—Yesterday, a
',faun w9nAn 0,4 interesting appearance, who gave her
flame Martha Fitzgei ald, and stated that she resided At
No. 21, Charles-street, Lissou-grove, was brought before
Messrs. Rawlinson and Theselton, charged with haring,

under the following distressing circumstances, attempted
to commit suicide.

Sergeant Tate, 1 1 D, on the previous night, as he was
going his rounds, was called into the above-named house
by the landlady, who told him that a female below stairs
was endeavouring to strangle herself. He went in, and
on entering the apartment discovered lying on the floor the
prisoner foaming at the mouth and black in the face ; her
eyes seemed ready to start from their sockets, and she was
polling with all her might the ends of a silk handkerchief
which she had tied round her throat. Being unable to un-
tie it, he cut it in two with his penknife, and after the lapse
of a considerable period, the prisoner in some measure re-
covered. She was at length, for security's sake, taken to
the station-house, when she stated that she had been se-
duced and was enceinte by a young man in the neighbour-
hood, who a few weeks ago had promised faithfully to
marry her, but had subsequently told her that she must
shift for herself. She had been for a long period out of a
situation, and as she had no friends to whom she could ap-
ply for support, she had come to the determination of put-
ting an end to herself rather than endure the frowns and
scorn of the world any longer.

Mr. RAWLINSON, after pointing out to her in a very
feeling and forcible manner the heinousness of suicide, dis-
charged her on obtaining from her a promise that she
would not repeat the attempt.

The celebrated Joseph Parkins, ex-sheriff of Lon-
don, who was famous in the Rowland Stephenson affair,
and who has for the last four years been confined in tho
city prison, New York, in consequence of his irascible tera-
nerament, is suffered to go at large, if he wishes to do so.
Like the man in the Bastile, however, he knows not where
to go, and therefore still resides in the gaol. He is a
man of large fortune.—Aniericart Paper.
On Saturday it was very generally reported in Lon-
don that Mr. Stirling, the Coroner for the western district,
had been found dead in his bed tl at morning, at his resi-
dence in Battersea. Many were the parties who cons's-
quently visited the venerable gentleman's residence, and
also the cffice in Chancery-lane. The rumour was soon
put an end to by the information that Mr. Stirling bad that
morning left his house in his usual health, to attend to his
professional duties. Among the most anxious inquirers into,
the truth of the report were several gentlemen, who, it is
understood, would have no objection to be his suceessor,.....

Mary Cooney, for the revolting murder of Mrs.
Anne Anderson, was executed at Gallows Green on Mon.
day last, pursuant to sentence. So vast an assemblage of
women was never seen collected upon any public occasion
in Limerick, and they outnumbered the other sex at least
ten to one. The condemned culprit was taken in a covered
cab to the place of execution, which saved her from the in-
quisitive stare and distracting comments of vulgar curiosity.
Before leaving the city gaol she freely acknowledged, in the
presence of the Rev. Mr. Brahan and the Governor, her
guilt, and the justice of her sentence, avowing the most
perfect sorrow and penitence. A strong guard of the
Queen's Bays, 25th regiment, and city police, formed the
escort, and the streets were crowded while the procession
passed. The executioner followed in a car, wearing a straw
hat and large mask, which effectually concealed his fea-
tures. 'So deeply sensible of her crime was the wretched
woman, that she kissed the rope which encircled her neck,
and humbly implored for mercy. She spoke not a word at
the place of execution, and died quietly. The military
returned to the prison with the body in a coffin for inter-
ment within its walls. This has been the first executiou
in the city of Limerick for the last'seventeen years.—
Limerick Chronicle.
On Friday last the wife of k very poor man, named
John Jackson, residing in a cellar in Market-street, Middle-
ton, was brought to bed of three very fine children, two
girls and one boy. The same day about a dozen of the
Egerton party, who had been to vote at Rochdale, and who
were at the Old Boar's Head Inn, Middleton, having
heard of the above, commenced a subscription, and in a
few minutes upwards of 1/. 10s. 6d. was collected and for-
warded to the poor family.—Stockport Advertiser.
We regret exceedingly to learn, that the renters or
tenants of St. Ann's Yards, Holyrood, have thought it
proper to interfere with the long-enjoyed privilege of the
workmen and other inhabitants of this city, of playing at
games in this park ; and that, for this purpose, they have
applied for and obtained an interdict from the Bailie of the
Abbey of Holyrood, " prohibiting and discharging all per-
sons whomsoever, from playing at cricket, quoits, foin or
hand ball, or any other game whatever, in said park."--
Scotsman.

Great excitement has for the last few days taken
place in Taunton, in consequence of Robert Bill, a tailor,
having stated that he was the person who murdered Eliza-
beth Trump, in 1823, on Buckland-hill ; he also impli-
cated two other persons, who were taken into custody.
The murdered girl was very beautiful, and the dreadful
atrocity which accompanied the murder excited indignation
and horror at the time the foul deed was committed. A.
farm servant was taken up nine or ten years ago on suspi-
cion of this murder, but the grand jury threw out the bill
against him. On Monday, Hill and the men he accuied
as his accomplices were brought before the magistrates at
Taunton, when he denied all knowledge of the transaction.
The two men were discharged, but Hill was remanded.
The prisoner, who has long borne a bad character as all
idle drunken fellow, presented the most haggard and care-
worn countenance. Since lie has been in custody he has
refused to eat his food with a knife, and trembles on ono
being shown to him. He told the persons who gave infor-
mation of his supposed confession that he had committed
the murder with a dinner-knife.—Tauntou Courier.
The corn fields are looking remarkably well, and
give every reason to hope for an abundant crop. Neartf
all the hay in this neighbourhood is housed; the weather
during the last week has not been very propitious, but We
believe very little harm has been done, and the bay is
.
generally good condition. It was feared the late heavy
falls of rain might have had the effect of beating down the
crops of grain, but we believe they have caused very little
damage.—Stockpoi /Advertiser.
All business m Alexandria is at a stand, and public
confidence annihilated. Such is the scarcity of good paper
that large remittances in specie have been lately made is
Leghorn and Marseilles. The Pacha will not sell his lave
stock of cotton, consisting of 90,000 bales, for less than
10i,L, dollars, while nobody thinks of offering him more than
eight dollars. There has not been a transaction for a month
past, and every other branch of trade is equally dull.---
