SUSPECTED MURDER NEAR DUDLEY.—Late on
Monday night the inhabitants of Lower Gornal, near Dud-
ley, were disturbed by the intelligence that a young woman
had been found murdered near the bottom of a pit, in the
colliery field at Red Hall. The news was well founded, for
a woman, about 20 years of age, was extricated about half-
past eleven in a most pitiable and fearful condition, being
almost dashed to pieces. Her name is Mary Ann Higgins,
a domestic servant, whose parents reside at Sedgley. It
appears that, a few days ago, she left her place of service,
and on Monday night an acquaintance that had subsisted
same time ago with one Joseph Bate, was resumed, and
they were out walking after dusk, and were so seen about
an hour previous to the discovery, at the scene of the
alleged murder, by a policeman named Sheldon. We

and as there are some houses near at hand, assistance was
readily given. Police-constable Sheldon apprehended Bate
in a public-house, carousing, some distance away. When
accused of murdering his sweetheart, he simply declared
his innocence, adding that " she jumped in herself." He
was lodged in gaol.
MR. W. H. SEWARD.--A man, I should think,
under five feet in height, and of some 60 years of age; small
made, with small delicate hands and feet, and a small wiry
body, scanty snow-white hair, deepset clear grey eyes,
face perfectly clean shaved, and a smooth colourless skin of
a sort of parchment texture I Such were the outward fea-
turese that struck me at once. He was in hisoffi

attorney, waiting to hear a new client's You are
at ease with him at once. There are a frankness
and bon-
homie about his manner which render it to my mind a very
pleasant one. In our English phrase, Mr. Seward is good
company. A good cigar, a good glass of wine,
and a good
story, even if it is Cant soi peu risque, are pleasures which
he obviously enjoys keenly. Still, a glance at that spare
hard- knit frame, and that clear, bright eye shows you that
no pleasure, however keenly appreciated, has been indulged
in to excess throughout his long laborious career. And,
more than that, no one 'who has had the pleasure of seeing
him among his own family can doubt about the kindliness
of his disposition. It is equally impossible to talk much
with him without perceiving that he is a man of remark-
able ability. He has read much, especially of modern
literature --travelled much—and seen much of the world of
man as well as that of book.—Dicey's Washington during
