CAUTION TO NURSES CARRYING Cu'LDWr:
a l
—On Friday afternoon an inquest was held before
y,. Sarah
Payne, on the b• dy of the offspring of to
Field, said the child was given to her two days since,
wet nurse, by her sifter, who had received it from a
Mrs. Cave. On Thursday she left home, for the pur-
pose of taking it to Mr. Mitford's, surgeon, whom she
xished to consult respecting its health. On her arrival
lady'
It the surgeon's, and on taking the child front under her
hawl, Mr. Milford, immediately he saw it pronounced
t dead. Mrs. Cave said the child was born in her
muse, on the 13th ult., but refused, though asked by
he jury, to state the name of the mother. She con-
ented herself with saying that the child was the Off"
-pring of a female who was quite a lady. The mother
.vas now in Bath, and had not been informed of the
child's death. The child was in the first instance given
,o her by the lady, with orders to procure a nurse for it.
By a juror—The lady herself is to pay me for expences.
Mr. Mitford, the surgeon, who had internally examined
the body, said he considered the child died of suffoca-
tion. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidentally
.uffocatcd," and expressed a hope that the case would
verve as a caution to females carrying infant children.
Ind prevent them from covering them too closely, in order
to avoid exposure to cold.
On Saturday morning a respectable jury and
Mr. Wakley assembled at the Merlin's Cave public-
nouse, in Spa fields, Clerkenwell, to inquire into the cir-
cumstances attending the death of Miss Elizabeth Ha-
iard,. aged nineteen, and her infant son. It appeared
trein the evidence that about twelve months back, while'
a, Bristol, Miss H. zard formed an attachment to at
.gentleman, and, wader a promise of marriage, he se-
lueed her. Her mother, who is a lady of property, in
n.der to hide her daughter's shame, brought her from
hat. city to the residence of her son-in-law, the Rev•
Mr. D. After remaining a few days there they removed
to Clerkenwell, and every arrangement was made ne-
cessary for the situation of the young lady. On Tues-
lay morning last the later, accompanied by her mo--
/her, visited her aunt, Mrs. Perry, of No. 13, Roso-
man-street, in whose house she was suddenly taken in
'abour, and in less than an hour after her entrance she
~,as delivered of a boy, which ceased to live in twenty
minutes after the bir h ; the mother became delirious,
and continzied so until her death, which took place on
(iilowing day. It was proved that every attention was
.aid her and her infant by Mr. Thomas, surgeon, °I.
Clerkenwell, and other medical men, and that the.
deaths arose from natural causes ; and a verdict to that
affect was returned.
A FINE LEAP.—On Friday morning last,
aeifi r, the property of Mr. George Taylor. butchcr;of
Newark, that had been pu, into the yard of the Rniiin
Hood lon, New,irk, for s. clarity, made her escape
by
eaping the gates,,a height of 6 feet 4 inches, which she
performed in the most gallant style.—Doneaster Gazeltt.
A child, two years old, was so dreadfully louOitt
Oswestry, or, Tuesday, that death eased the
tifant from its sufferings the next day. It was plaII"
o a neighbour's house with another, when the wortiae.,
if the hou-e went on the bed, and locked the ehtl
Iren in. It is supposed the child's clothes were burl'.
ing a quarter of an hour before its screams were beard'
THE E BAKERS OF LONDON.—On Saturday.
'ilea a numerous meeting of the journeymen bakers °f
he metropolis and its environs, was held at the A•s-
sembly Rooms, Theobald's-road, Holborn, for thou ut"
pose of forming a society, to co-operate with that the,
master bakers, in procuring from the Legislature an
to abolish the system of Sunday baking and cooking
Mr. Johnston, of Peckham, wa ;moved to the chair.
From the statement delivered it appeared that there
ire 2,500 masters and 8,000 journeymen bilkers in the
metropolis. The journeymen have to leave their bed'
at 11 o'clock every night in the week, except Saturdaye
night, and they must continue at work from that thIL
until sever, or eight o'clock the following evening• it:
the forenoon of Sunday they have to bake or cook from
nine o'clock until half after one in the afternoon of thm,t,
" day of rest ;" they must; attend to the "spong,
r'rom four till five, and, after a brief interval, they must-
resume work, and continue labouring during the re"
mainder of the Sabbath, until eleven o'clock at night.,
The bakers want to be exempted by Act of Parliamente....!
from the baking work in the forenoon of Sunday.
e
majority of the master bakers are in favour 0f
desired relaxation, for their own sakes as well atstiothaost:
of their men. Dr. Lusbington presented a
Parliament last year, signed by 1,086 mastersP,
of this object ; but the suect did not procee a„
in the House of Commons, nor did it come
before the Lords. However, both masters an Holl
