ANOTHER SUPPOSED CASE OF CHILD MURDER.

—Yesterday Mr. William Carter, the coroner for East
Surrey, held an inquest in the boarl-room of Camberwell
Workhouse on the body of a newly-born female infant,
which was found tied up in some old rags in a market gar-
den in the Camberwell New-road. As in most of these
cases, there was not the slightest trace as to who deposited
the body where it was discovered, The Coroner, having
alluded to the large increase in the number of the bodies of
children found exposed in the public streets, and the im-
possibility of detecting any of the guilty parties, the jury
returned au open verdict.

Mr. Roger Brooke, Assistant Surveyor to the
Corporation of Nottingham, says, in a letter to a
contemporary :—A short time since the corporation
of this borough determined on making great alte-
rations in what has always been considered to be
the oldest part of the town. Many houses which
bore the impress of great age have been pulled
down, in order to construct a commodious street
leading from the general market-place to the centre
of the lace-market. Among these was one which
was popularly known as "King John's Palace,"
although no reliable authority could be found for
the tradition. Last Monday, however, some of the
workmen announced that they had discovered a
large underground cell, and cn repairing to the
spot I found it to be a fact. Not one alone,
but thirteen cells have been discovered, all com-
municating with each other, and eventually
with the Castle, which is about a quarter of a
mile distant. I and some gentlemen of the Town
Council spent the greater part of yesterday in ex-
ploring these discoveries. The curiosity evinced
by the people of the town was so great that a large
body of policemen had to guard the entrance to
prevent any accident.
The walls of four of the cells have been lined
with rude but substantial masonry, while others
appear to be in their primitive condition. In one
of those which we found thus lined we dis-
covered numerous remains of ancient armour
lying in a corner, while near to them were several
weapons, one of which in particular (a battle-
axe) is in an excellent state of preservation. In
another we discovered three skeletons, apparently
the remains of prisoners, for each one was lying
near what appeared to have been huge staples
fixed in the wall. One of the skeletons crumbled
away to dust, the other two are very fragile indeed.
It was some time before we could muster courage
sufficient to examine the passage leading to the
castle, on account of the foul air. On our doing so,
however, we found the air to be comparatively pure,
owing, no doubt, to the existence of fissures in the
rock. Nothing remarkable was discovered in it,
but the fact of their being such a passage gives a
colour of probability to the tradition concerning
" King John's Palace." There is every reason to
believe that these excavations extend still further,
and I entertain sanguine hopes that more interest-
ing discoveries will yet be made. It is intended
on the return of my superior, Mr. Tarbottom (who
is at present absent on sick leave), to conduct the
search still further.

MARKETS---THIS DAY.

MARK LANE.

Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of new
English wheat were only moderate. The trade, however,
was dull for all qualities, and previous quotations were
barely supported.

There was a good show of samples of foreign wheat on
the stands. The transactions were for the most part of a
retail character, at about Monday's currency.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request on former
terms.

Barley, owing to the small supply on offer, was firm at
extreme rates.

The malt trade ruled inactive, yet prices were supported.
The supply of oats was very moderate, and all kinds
moved off freely at full quotations.

Beans and peas were firm, and quite as dear as on Mon•

In most kinds of flour a fair business was transacted al
late rates.
