THE QUEEN AND LORD PALMERSTON.—Her Ala-

jeesty, when the news of the illness of her First
Minister was conveyed to her, instantly wrote, by General
Grey, to Lady Jocelyn, who is one of her Women of the
Bedchamber, expressing her concern, and requesting to be
kept informed of the Premier's state; and when the worst
intelligence reached Balmoral she wrote to assure Lady
Palmerston of her " heartfelt and deep sympathy with her
under this deep trial." The Prince and Princess of Wales
also telegraphed anxiously and repeatedly to Brocket-hall
for news during the attack, and have already given ex-
pression to their great sorrow at its fatal issue.
THE BOXED-UP BURGLAR AT LIVERPOOL.—
Thomas Williams, alias Broadbent, the returned
convict, who had been several times remanded on a charge
of burglariously breaking out of the shop of Mr. Yorke,
jeweller, St. George's-crescent, and stealing a large amount
of jewellery, was again brought up, at the Liverpool
Police-court, on Tuesday. Some additional evidence was
now given, but the main facts of the case have already been
published. On the 15th of September, a man called at Mr.
Yorke's shop on the pretence of purchasing jewellery.
After selecting a number of articles, he requested to be
allowed to leave at the shop a box, which he said con-
tained plated goods, and into which he intended to put the
jewellery he had selected from Mr. Yorke's shop. The
requisite permission was given, and the box, a good-sized
packing-case, was brought to the shop on the night of the
18th. In this box the prisoner was concealed, and during
the night he got out of his hiding-place, and after collect-
ing a large quantity of jewellery, worth between £5OO and
£6OO, was about to snake his escape, when a daughter of
the prosecutor, who slept in the house, hearing a noise,
raised an alarm, and the prisoner was caught as he was
getting over the yard-wall into the passage which
leads into Lord-street. The jewellery was found in a car-
pet bag in the yard, and two diamond rings were found
upon him. Upon being brought into the dock, the prisoner
requested that the depositions might be taken in open
court, saying that the last time he was committed they
were taken in a small room, and that people were actually
fighting as to whether he should be indicted for breaking,
or simply trespassing, Mr. Baffles said the depositions
were now taken in the public court. Miss Sarah Ann
Yorke was now called, and said she and her sister and
aunt were on the premises in St. George's-crescent on the
night of the 18th ult. They felt some curiosity to know
what was in the box in question, and they shook it and
found it very heavy. (Laughter.) Mr. Raffies—lt's well
for you it did not come open. The witness went on to
say that they went to bed about eleven o'clock, leaving
the jewellery in the window quite safe. She was
awakened about four o'clock by hearing a noise, and she
saw a light reflected on the wall opposite the back par-
lour window. She picked up a water jug, and threw it

through the window to create alarm. She then heard the
window of the back parlour go up, and saw a man

jump out. She threw a basin at him, but it did not strike
him. "She cried, " Thieves," and saw a man get over the
wall. She did not see his face. Tho prisoner was brought
in almost immediately by a policeman. He asked for a
drink of water, and she said she would give him one if he
would tell her whether he came in the box or not. Ho
said "Well, I must do without it." She afterwards found
that the lid of the box was not fastened, and that the box
was empty. • Mr. Raffles said it was clear that Mr. Yorke
was indebted to his daughter's presence of mind for the
recovery of his property. Police-constable 98 having de-
posed to catching the prisoner as he came over the wall
of Mr. Yorke's back yard, other witnesses were called, and
the prisoner was asked if he wished to say anything. He
replied, " I served five years for breaking into this man's
(Mr. Yorke's) shop, but I was not within 40 feet of the
place." The prosecutor then was asked whether an at-
tempt had been mach to enter his premises, and he said
" No." Ho said he found the shop in the morning as he
left it at night. The prisoner—l was found by the private
watchman on the public wall that divides his back-yard
from the public passage. 1 was tried for attempting to
break into his shop, but I was not within 40 feet of it,
and through being persecuted innocently was led to this
present case. The prisoner was then committed W take
his trial at the assizes.
