MURDER NEAR NOTTINGHAM.

NOTTINGHAM, SATURDAY.—Last night
the inhabi-
tants of Basford, a village about three miles from Not-
tingham, were thrown into a. state of considerable
excitement by the report that the body of a man bad
been found in the river Leen (which adjoins the village),
with his throat cut.
The deceased was identified as being a man named
Emmley Pearson, who lived in the village, and was
about 25 years of age. A labouring man named Thos.
Cbarlesworth (who has been apprehended on suspicion
of perpetrating the murder) resides at Surnmercoates,
in Derbyshire. He is a married man, but owing, it is
.
said, to the reckless conduct of his wife, they lived
together very unhappily, the husband being frequently
worked up to the highest pitch of jealousy.
About five weeks ago the woman left her husband and
came to reside at Basford, and while in this village
Cbarlesworth repeatedly wrote to her, begging her to
return to her home. Oc Sunday last the husband came
to Basford, and late in the evening of that day he met
his wife and the deceased walking together near the
village.

Tire infuriated husband immediately attacked Pear-
son, fought with him for some time, and was seen
struggling with him by a woman named Miles.
From that period nothing was seen of either of the
men until Friday afternoon, when Pearson was found in
the river Leen, about 150 yards from the scene of the
fight, with his throat cut, his head being nearly severed
from his body.

Information was immediately given to the police, who
instituted a diligent search after Charles worth, who was
aPPrehended this morning at the Old Park, Ashby-de-
la-Zouch, and was forthwith brought to the County-ball
at Nottingham. He was then taken before the magis-
trates, and after a brief examination remanded. The
prisoner denied cutting the throat of the deceased, and
manifested the most perfect indifference.
A coroner's inquest upon the body was held this after-
noon before Mr. Coroner Swann, at the Horse and
Jockey, Basford, and adjourned to Monday.
