Mysterious Death at a Lodging-house.

Yesterday Dr. Lankester held an inquest at the Elephant
and Castle, King's-road, St. Pancras, on the body of Caro-
line Milner, who was found dead in bed last Thursday
morning, at a lodging-house, at No. 24, Drummond-street.
From the evidence of the landlord and landlady, Mr. and
Mrs. Rhynd, it appeared that the deceased, who took lodg-
ings with them on the previous Saturday week, not making
her appearance at the breakfast table, on Thursday last, at
the usual time, they proceeded upstairs and found the bed-
room door locked on the inside. The police were sent for,
and Constable 432 S, upon entering the room, found the
woman was dead.

Inspector Gibson of the S division, stated that he
searched the room of the deceased, whom he found lying on
her left side quite dead. He found upon her £lss. in money,
and a number of letters, the following of which he put in
as likely to throw light upon the cause of her death :
" Dear James—lt is with a breaking heart that I write
these few lines to you, and by the time you receive them I
shall be dead, and hope you will come and
put me in my
grave. I had not the heart to go to Manchester amongst
my friends after all the lies you have caused me to tell
them, and you know that I could not hold a situation
with being subject to these fits—that I could not hold
no place long ; but I hope that God will forgive you as I
have done, and that it will not be long before we meet
again in another world. You know in your own heart
that it is you that has brought me into all trouble. You
must have thought that I had no heart or feeling in me to
stand by and see another caressed in my place. You could
not have done it yourself, for you know that I loved you
too well. I only hope that them you have will do as well
for you as I have done. I would not let you have your

" CARRY.
P.S.—Do, I beg of you, come and bury me decently,
and not let strangers do it. I have enclosed you the card
of the house I am staying at."
Tho letter was directed to Mr. James Alexander Mill, 17,
Chapel-street, Broadway, Westminster, who, upon being
sworn, said that deceased was not his wife, but had been
his housekeeper previous to his marriage, and afterwards
up to last Saturday week. She left against the wish of
himself and wife. lie gave her £3 when she left. She had
epileptic fits nearly every fortnight.
Dr. Baylis said ho had examined deceased, and could
not find anything to account for death, but had sent
stomach, &c., to Dr. Harley for analysis. There was a
slight bruise on her right thigh.
The inquiry was adjourned for a fortnight.

SOUTHWARK.

A FAITHLESS WIFE AND HER PARAMOUR.—WiIIiam
Johnson, a labourer, was charged with assaulting a man
named William Dowe, and both parties live in Red Cross-
court, Borough.

From the statement of the prosecutor it appeared that
his wife had for some time been living with the pri-
soner, and occasioned him considerable annoyance by
coming to his lodgings. Last evoning she repeated
this conduct, and he was obliged to leave his
lodgings -in consequence of her gross abuse of
him. She followed him into the Catherine Wheel
public-house, whore she saw the prisoners. They
both asked him to go to the place where they wore living
to see his children. When he got up to the second flight
of stairs the prisoner attacked him, knocked him down
stairs, and except that he was caught by the landlord of
the house in his arms he might have been brained. As it
was he had received severe injuries, and his face was
very much disfigured. His wife encouraged the prisoner
to continue his assault on him, crying out "follow him
up." He could not say whether she struck him, he was so
stupified by the violent treatment he had received.

The prisoner said be merely pushed the prosecutor, and
if he was struck it was by the woman.

James Perry, landlord of the house where the prisoner
lived, proved to having seen the assault committed, and the
prosecutor came "thundering" down stairs, when he caught
him in his arms.

The prisoner repeated his previous statement, and said
the prosecutor came to his place, making some inquiries
about his children, and he had never seen him before, and
he was living in his present lodgings for eight months. The
fact was that he was assaulted outside his place by the
prosecutor and some of his friends, and had received a
black eye in consequence of their violence. He called a
witness, who said the prosecutor and his wife fell down
stairs together, and the prisoner did not assault him.
Mr. Woolrych sentenced the prisoner to two months'
hard labour.

Liverpool Cotton Market—This Day.

Market opens with less excitement, and the
sales will probably foot up 15,000 bales.

During the last few days there has been rather
less activity in the foreign and colonial produce
markets. Sugars, however, have fully supported
former prices. Coffee has been in fair demand, and
superior descriptions of colonial have brought full
rates. Rice has been neglected, while tallow has
been in moderate request, the demand for consump-
tion having slightly increased, and prices have been
generally well maintained.

PORTPATRICK.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at Stranraer on Tuesday—Sir J. C. D. Hay in
the chair.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, an abstract of which has appeared in The
Sun, contragulated the shareholders that at length
the undertaking had yielded a dividend,which, how-
ever small (at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum),
was, he trusted, the commencement of a profitable
return on their capital. Though the dividend had
been received from local traffic alone, he was happy
to say that arrangements were nearly completed by
which they would have a daily service with the north
of Ireland. Portpatrick harbour was now approach-
ing completion, and he had been assured that if

The Alleged Manslaughter of a Woman
by a Tradesman.

Yesterday Mr. Richards, deputy coroner, resumed
at the White Horse Tavern, White Horse-street, Com-
mercial-road, the inquiry relative to the death of Elizabeth
Newland, aged 34 years.
Mr. Stoddart, solicitor, appeared on behalf of Mr. Blin-
dell, tobacconist, residing at 2, Suffolk-place, Commercial-
road, with whom the deceased had cohabited.

The evidence taken on the previous occasion was gene-
rally to the effect that the deceased had complained of be-
ing dreadfully ill used by Mr. Blindel], and had shown
marks of injuries. On Sept. 21 she died after a very brief
illness, the commencement of which was attributed to
blows given to her by Mr. Blindell, but the malady had
certainly developed into delirium tremens before her death.

Geo. Hardway, a fire-escape conductor, who had deposed
to seeing black eyes and other injuries on deceased's per-
son, and to her complaints of ill treatment, was now cross-
examined by Mr. Stoddart. He said he had never seen her
intoxicated. She first complained of Mr. Blindell's ill treat-
ment after her confinement, about seven months ago. She
never said she fell down stairs. He had never drank with
her at a public-house. He used to take down the shutters
for her, and she used to give him half an ounce of tobacco
but never money. He never brought her brandy in the
evenings, but on a few occasions he had fetched small
quantities for her in the mornings. She never was drunk.
He did not know that Mr. Blindell was married till lately.
He had never seen Mrs. Blindell till Saturday last.
Mrs. Edgecombe, 17, York-place, Commercial-road, said
the deceased was her cousin. Witness saw her a month
ago. She had then a black eye, and she said that Mr.
Blindell gave it to her. She made no complaint. She used
to say that he behaved very kind to her. She was never
tipsy.

Mrs. Fanny Blindell was then sworn. She said that
she was the wife of William Hudson Blindell. She kept
a tobacconist's shop. She knew that Mr. Blindell very
much ill-used her—used to kick her.

The Coroner—But that has nothing to do with deceased.
Did you know her ?
Witness—Only by seeing her as I was passing in an
omnibus. But he used to ill-treat her in such a manner—

Mr. Stoddart—Yon were separated from your husband
under this deed ?

Witnesc Yoa, thieugh his cruelty.

Coroner—l cannot take your evidence. You know
nothing of the deceased's treatment. It is .unfair to pre-
judice the case.
After hearing further evidence the Jury returned a ver-
dict that the deceased died from congestion of the lungs
brought on by excessive drinking.

HORS HAM AND GUILDFORD.

This line, which is about 17 miles long, was opened
for traffic yesterday. The first train left Guildford
at 635 a.m., arriving in Horsham at 7 30. The
new line affords the shortest route to Brighton from
Guildford, Kingston, Chertsey, Richmond, Twicken-
ham, Putney, Windsor, Alton, and other stations
on the South Western line. The new railway starts
from a point on the Mid-Sussex line near Horsham,
proceeding to Slinfold, and crossing the valley of the
river Arun, with a high embankment. Passing the
village of Rudgwick, the line enters the hill of Great
House by a tunnel upwards of 400 yards long ;
thence to Baynards and Cranley, along the valley,'
and crosses the Wey and Arun Canal and the Godal-
ming Canal, and terminates by a junction with the
Portsmouth line. The Guildford station on the
South Western line will be used for the purposes of
the new line, which will be worked in connection
with the London, Brighton, and South Coast Rail-
way. There are four stations on the line--viz.,
Bromley, Cranley, Baynards, and Slinfold.

DUMFRIES AND LOCKERBIE.

This company having been amalgamated with the
Caledonian, the last statutory general meeting was
held at Lockerbie on Saturday ; Sir William Brown
in the chair.

The report stated that during the past half-
year the revenue from traffic had amounted to
£4,483, and the expenditure to £3,058, leaving a
balance of £1,503 available for dividend. There
being several claims unsettled the directors recom-
mended an interim dividend at the rate of 2 per
cent. The amalgamation with the Caledonian came
into force on the 31st of July last, the condition of
amalgamation being that the shareholders were en-
titled to a guaranteed stock equal to the amount of
their paid-up shares, bearing a dividend of 6 per
cent. per annum.

The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report,
which was unanimously agreed to.

BERWICKSHIRE.

The Government inspector having expressed his
approval of the works on this line, it was opened
throughout yesterday for public traffic. The works
included a long viaduct over the Tweed, immediately
below Melrose, near St. Boswell's Junction with the
Waverley route. The viaduct consisted of 19 semi-
circular arches of 40ft. span each, and the height
from the river to the rails was about 130 ft. This
new line, with the Dunse branch, formed a connec-
tion with the main lines of the North British, with
east coast route at Aytoun, and with the Waverley
route at St. Boswell's.

This bankrupt was described as an author and publisher
of Colebrook-row, Islington, and to-day was appointed for
the order of discharge. The debts are £1,132, and the
deficiency £1,052, the failure being caused by literary
speculation. In the absence of opposition the order was

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS—This Day.
London, England, 1865-10-03

BOW STREET.

Frederick Mill, a chimney-sweep, was placed before
Mr. Flowers charged with stealing a ham bone, the pro-
perty of Mr. Batter, the proprietor of a ham and beef
shop in the Strand.
James Thomas, shopman to Mr. Batter, said thoe last
evening he was busy serving customers in the shop,
when the prisoner walked in and deliberately went to the
farther end of the shop, took up the ham bone, and walked
out with it under his arm. Ho followed him, and on coming
up with him near the Dark-arches, prisoner knocked him
down ; ho, however, got up, followed him, and on taking
hold of him again a struggle ensued, during which the
policeman came up, and on his attempting to take the pri-
soner into custody he resisted violently, but ultimately he
was overpowered and taken to the station-house. The
complainant further stated that his shirt and waistcoat were
oiatiLc4,- a..4E...x-1 by a... prisoner in thd ICiruggle.

Mr. Flowers—What have you to say to the charge ?
Prisoner—Say, your Worship ? Why, that I paid for
the ham. I gave the man a silver sixpence, and as I was
going out of the shop he said he wanted threepence more,
which I didn't mean to give him. He told me the ham
bone was only sixpence.

Thomas—Nothing of the kind took place. He came into
the shop, took up the ham, and walked off with it without
saying a word. He appeared quito sober, but when the
constable came up he began to conduct himself as if he
were intoxicated.

Prisoner—l was knocked down for nothing. I was a
little elevated, it's true.

Mr. Flowers—Not when you were knocked down.
Prisoner—Of course not. (Laughter.) I paid him for
the ham, and no mistake.

Police-constable 12G F said he came up while the witness
Thomas was struggling with the sweep. He took hold of
him, and then he made a desperate attempt to got away.
He, after some trouble, got him to the station-house, but
not before he (witness) was as black as the prisoner.
(Laughter.)

Prisoner—Why, I never had any parley with him, your
worship. He shoved his knuckles into my throat, and in
course I tried to move 'em. I never made any objection
to go into tho gentleman.

Constable—Ho wanted to go down the dark arches. If
I had let him do so I should never have got him out again.
When we arrived at the station-house the prisoner said
nothing about paying for the ham-bone himself. On the
contrary, he said his wife was outside the shop and ho was
going to get the money to pay for it.
Prisoner—l know I paid for the ham.
Mr. Flowers—l shall remand you for a week in order
that some inquiry may be made about you.
London, England, 1865-10-03

CAUGHT AT LAST.

George Clark, a well known thief, was indicted for steal-
ing a coat, the property of a pawnbroker in Brick-lane,
Spitalfields.
The prisoner pleaded not guilty.

From the evidence it appeared that the first robbery the
prisoner committed on the day in question was the removal
of a quantity of silk from a warehouse-man's cart, with
which he got clear off. His next robbery, a few hours
after, was that of a lady's reticule, which he snatched from
her arm as she was walking. A lad saw the prisoner
steal the reticule, and pursued him, calling "Police ;"
but in this case he also succeeded in eluding the police.
Later, however, in the day he stole the coat, but in this in-
stance he tempted his fortune too much, and he was cap-
tured. The lad who saw the lady robbed identified tho
prisoner as the person who stole the reticule.
The jury pronounced him guilty.
The police officer in charge of the case said the prisoner
had only been discharged from prison a week, where he
had been confined for stealing carpet.

The Assistant Judge sentenced him to two years' im•
prisoninent with hard labour.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day,

MANSION-HOUSE.

CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—John Brigenshaw, a lad
apparently not more than 16 or 17 years of age, was
brought before the Lord Mayor this morning charged with
driving over a female and causing her death.
The defendant, it appeared, was driving a heavily-laden
van belonging to Messrs.W. and A. Gilbey, of Oxford-street,
on Monday afternoon about half-past four, and was pass-
ing in front of the Mansion-house at the time the accident
occurred. According to the evidence of the witnesses--
none of whom appeared to have seen the occurrence very
distinctly—it appeared that two women were running
across the road, and by some means they fell down
A time-keeper of the omnibuses saw them fall and
picked one of them up, and was about to turn round
to help the other up when he saw her knocked down by
the defendant's horses, and before he had time to extricate
her the wheels of the van passed over her head. Police-
constable Regan, 488, who was close by, heard the outcry,
and saw the wheels pass over her head, and stopped the
horse as the hind wheel was touching her. The woman
was extricated and put into a cab to be taken to the hos-
pital, but died before she got there. The defendant, it
appears, was driving at a very slow pace at the time.
Inspector Foulger said he had made every inquiry, and
had sent information to all the police stations, but had not
been able to ascertain who the deceased was.
The:defendant was remanded to await:the result of the
coroner's inquest, and was admitted to bail in one surety
in £5O.

line Milner, who was found dead in bed last Thursday
morning, at a lodging-house, at No. 24, Drummond-street.
From the evidence of the landlord and landlady, Mr. and
Mrs. Rhynd, it appeared that the deceased, who took lodg-
ings with them on the previous Saturday week, not making
her appearance at the breakfast table, on Thursday last, at
the usual time, they proceeded upstairs and found the bed-
room door locked on the inside. The police were sent for,
and Constable 432 S, upon entering the room, found the
woman was dead.

Inspector Gibson of the S division, stated that he
searched the room of the deceased, whom he found lyingon
her left side quite dead. He found upon her £1 ss. in money,
and a number of letters, the following of which he put in
as likely to throw light upon the cause of her death :
" Dear James—lt is with a breaking heart that I write
these few lines to you, and by the time you receive them I
shall be dead, and hope you will come and put me in my
grave. I had not the heart to go to Manchester amongst

" CARRY.
“ P.S.—Do, I beg of you, come and bury me decently,
and not let strangers do it. I have enclosed you the card
of the house I am staying at."
The letter was directed to Mr. James Alexander Mill, 17,
Chapel-street, Broadway, Westminster, who, upon being
sworn, said that deceased was not his wife, but had been
his housekeeper previous to his marriage, and afterwards
up to last Saturday week. She left against the wish of
himself and wife. He gave her £3 when she left. She had
epileptic fits nearly every fortnight.
Dr. Baylis said he had examined deceased, and could
not find anything to account for death, but had sent
stomach, &c., to Dr. Harley for analysis. There was at
slight bruise on her right thigh.
The inquiry was adjourned for a fortnight.

report, an abstract of which has appeared in The
Sun, contragulated the shareholders that at length
the undertaking had yielded a dividend,whicb, how-
ever small (at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum),
was, he trusted, the commencement of a profitable
return on their capital. Though the dividend had
been received from local traffic alone, he was happy
to say that arrangements were nearly completed by
which they would have a daily service with the north
of Ireland. Portpatrick harbour was now approach-
