CORONERS' INQUESTS.

RAILROAD ACClDENT.—Yesterday an inquest was,held
at St. George's Hospital, flyde Park-corner, on view of
the body of Henry Raxton, ape' 17, who was killed on the
Great Western Railroad. _ . _

It appeared from the evidence that the deceased was
one of the drivers of the waggons on the railroad, on one
of which he improperly rode, when his clothes catching he
was thrown off and run over. Verdict " Accidental death."
Yesterday evening, at six o'clock, an inquest was held
at the Charing-cross Hospital, on view of the body of
George Tavenner, three years and a half old, whose death
was caused by the wheel of a cab passing over his body on
Alonday afternoon, about four o'clock.
It appearekin evidence that a girl, about 14 years of
age, had charge of the deceased, whom she was leading, and
a younger child, which she had iii her arms, and, on .cross-
ing the Strand, towards the north, from Hungerford-street,
the deceased's foot slipped, he fell on his face, and a cab
passing at the same moment the off wheel went over his
body just below his shoulders. The child was immediately
conveyed to the hospital, and died in a few minutes. No
blame whatever was attributed to the driver, and the jury
returned a verdict of " Accidental death, and a deodand of
Is. on the vehicle."

A FEMALE AIDE-DE-CAMP.—She had betn
taken prisoner by Karaiskaki at Tripolitza, when that city
fell into the hands of the Turks ; and Karaiskaki became
attached to her, and she to him. She watched him night
and day. She carried over her shoulder a light Greek
musket, and in her girdle a brace of pistols and an ataghan.
Her countenance was very pleasing, but possessing more of
the Turkish than the Greek character. Her face was
rather round than oval ; she had a perfectly straight nose,
dark eyes and eyebrows, and a complexion not at all dark,
but of a healthy and beautiful white and red. Her hair
was dark auburn, and was plaited, and part of it wound
round a Greek red cap with a blue tassel. She wore white
cotton trousers, with a white sheep-skin jacket, coming
clown to her waist only, which latter was encircled with a
red leathern girdle, containing arms. Her manners were
very mild and unobtrusive, and when noticed by us stran-
gers, she cast down her eyes with a very becoming and
attracthe modesty.—Cochreme's Wanderings in Greece.

The CHAIRMAN frat proud in proposirg, " The H
of G. A. Young, Esq., the late unsucce,sful candidate for
Marylebone."—(Loud cheers.)
Mr. YOUNG rose amid much cheering, which continued
for some time. He had no personal feelings to serve in
coming forward, but a wish to represent the free suffrages
of the independent electors. It was not to divide, but to
unite Reformers—not to dissever the Reform interest, but
to cement it.—(Cheers.) He had to return them his sin-
cere thanks for the great honour they had conferred on him,
and he begged to assure them they would find, that though
not returned, he would still continue to uphold those prin.
e;ples which he had advocated while a candidate for their
suffrages, one of which was vote by ballot, and to t.l e neee:-
sity of that measure, Ipswich and other places would bear
testimony—(Hear)—and also the repeal of the tax-paying
clauses ; for it was notorious that in Marylebone alone up-
wards of 2,000 persons had been objected to.
The CHAIRMAN said he bad a toast now to propose which
he had no doubt would afford gratification to a!I parties, as

I was the health of one of the best and roost honest lie-
formers that ever sat in the Commoas' House of P"rlinuarot

—he meant Lis worthy and much respected friend, Colonel
'Thompson.—(Loud cheers.)
The toast was then drank with the usual honours.

Colonel THOMPSON could scarcely express his feelings
on hearing the mention (Allis name responded to in so hand-
some a manner He Elt dceply the obligations he owed to
the electors of Marylebone. They had nobly supported
dr: principles he professed, and he felt proud in haying his
name associated with so honourable and respectable a con-
stituency.—(Hear.) They had done their duty nobly in
opposing the Tories, whose principles wire to trample in the
dust everything that savoured of rel,rining or liberal mea-
sures, and he hoped they would never relax in the spirit of
union and combination to the advancement of the common
cause. The cause of liberty was, or ought to be, the ob-
ject of all, either at home or abroad ; and those who would
not support freedom abroad ought not to enjoy it at home.
—(Cheers.) He saw before him several gentlemen who
were foreigners, exiles, the wreck of an unfortunate nation

—of unhappy Poland.—(Hear, and cheers.) He knew that
s-,und would animate the feelings of British hearts, who felt
deeply the wrongs which had been inflicted on that unhappy
country. He hoped speedily to see that country
restored to its former station among the kingdoms of the
earth ; and he was sure there was not o.ic among them but
felt the same.—(Hear, hear.) He would, therefore, briefly
thank them for the honour they had conferred upon loin,
and would, with the permission of their Noble Chairman,
give them a toast which he had no doubt they would re-
Apond to in the manner which it deserved—he would give
" Independence and Restoration to the Kingdom of Poland."
—( Loud cheers.)
Dr. SZYERNA (a Pole) returned thanks.
The CHAIRMAN said he had now to propose " the health
of as true and as honest a Reformer as ever drew breath,
one who was ever foremost in the cause of freedom and
liberty, and he had no hesitation in saving they all revered
and would do honour to the name of Thomas Murphy."

Mr. MURPHY rose to return thanks. He had no rea-
son to regret the part he had taken in the late election : he
wa3 not elated by riztory or depressed by defeat. He was
gratified with the result of the late election, although it had
not turned out exactly as he wished. He was proud to
find that the Reformers of Marylebone, unted or otherwise,
were strong enough to defeat the Tories wiJi all their ma-
chinations, and he was assured, that hide where they will,
they must not hide in that borough.
The CHAIRMAN proposed " the Ladies," which was
drunk with three times thrce, and one eh( er mere.

After which, Mr. YOUNG proposed "the health of the
Chairman."

The CHAIRMAN briefly returned thanks, and adverted in
strong language to the claims of Po!and on this country,
and expressed his intention, as we understood, that dancing
was to be the order o the evening, to join in it, and which
eras prolonged to a very late hour.
