THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1854.

September, the wife of a gentleman, aged 48 years, '
" cholera (13 hours)." The occupier of this house (a
clerk in the Post-office) died therein on the Bth ultimo
of cholera. This lady was, I believe, on a visit from
Scotland, and had been to the Crystal Palace the day
before her death.
GREENWICH.—The registrar states :—" My return of
this week will show that no less a number than 80 souls
have been registered by mo during the past week, and
that in two streets alone—namely, New-street and
French's-fields, much the largest proportion of deaths has
taken place-42 in the lormer, and 21 in the latter,
making together 63 ; and I believe, from the testimony
of several of my informants, that the present number
has been very much augmented by frights produced by
the cries of the neighbours who had lost relatives or
who were seized with cholera, together with the constant
removal of the dead. The frequent visits and unremit-
ting attention of the medical men passing and repassing
their doors created in this neighbourhood an alarm which
it is scarcely possible to be conceived by any but those
who were eye-witnesses of the fact."
Last week the births of 810 boys and 796 girls, in all
1,606 children, were registered in London. In the 9
corresponding weeks of the years 1845-53,.the average
number was 1,401. No rain fell this or the preceding
week.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.—Just before the rising of the court
Mr. Moe Guy, surveyor and accountant, 9, Essex street,
Strand, was placed at the bar before Mr. Jardine,
charged with uttering a forged bill of exchange for 1001.,
with intent to defraud the Royal British Bank.
A solicitor who attended to prosecute, and whose
name did not transpire, stated that the bill of exchange
was impounded by order of the Insolvent Commissioner,
in consequence of what had occurred respecting it in
the course of some proceedings before his Honour. The
prisoner Guy, while under examination as a witness
in the Insolvent Debtors' Court, admitted that he had
received the whole amount of the bill, on presenting it
at the bank ; and the bill itself would be forthcoming at
a future day, if his worship would grant a remand.
A Mr. Golding, 82, Chiswell-street, who stated that he
was clerk to Mr. R. Hare, solicitor and prosecutor in this
case, deposed that he was present when the prisoner
made the above admissions, and saw the bill of exchange.
It purported to be drawn by Mr. Geo. Stephens, and ac-
cepted by Mr. London, of Hungerford-market. The pri-
soner was asked by the commissioner himself if he pre-
sented the bill, and he replied in the affirmative, stating
that he received the money in nine 101. notes, and the
balance in cash. He refused to answer the question as to
whether the endorsement was in his handwriting. The
commissioner ordered the bill to be impounded, and it
was at present in the hands of Mr. Inkpen, the regis-
trar of the Insolvent Court, who stated that he would
attend with it before a magistrate if required to do so.
Mr. Jardine—You must give me some evidence that
he knew the bill to be a forgery. The mere fact of his
receiving •the money does not establish the charge of
wilfully uttering.
The Prisoner—l admit receiving the money.
Thomas Murray, ironmonger, of 13, High-street, St.
Giles, stated that he was the plaintiff in an action
brought upon the bill of exchange. He knew Stephens,
and could swear that the endorsement was not in his
handwriting. He knew the defendant's writing very
well, although he had not seen him write for 12 mentlis.
The endorsement was evidently written in a disguised
hand, but to the best of his belief it was in the hand-
writing of the prisoner, being altered from his usnal
style.
The prisoner said if the magistrate considered there
was any ground whatever for this charge, he would
cross-examine the witnesses. The whole thing was the
result of a conspiracy against him, at the head of which
was that gentleman (pointing to Mr. Hare) who had just
left the Insolvent Court, and had been forbidden to prac-
tise there again by the Commissioner.
Mr. Hare assured his worship that he had been the
victim of the prisoner Guy, and that accounted for
being the insolvent.
A general interchange of calumnies then commenced
among the persons present who appeared to be interested
in the case, after which
Mr. Jardine stated his intention to remand the pri-
soner till Saturday— the evidence of Murray having
placed the matter in a different light altogether. But
for this there would have been no criminal charge
against him.
The prisoner hoped he should be admitted to bail.
Tha bill of exchange was a year old, and yet the parties
had thought fit to take no steps in the matter till now,
which showed their real motives in the matter.
Mr. Jardine declined to accept bail.

CLERKENWELL.—Mr. Francis Coltman Soper,
the secretary of the Working Man's Emigration Society,
Bedford-street, Red Lion-square, was placed at the bar,
charged by Mrs. Eliza Skinner, a young woman,:with
having violently and indecently assaulted her.
The complainant having been sworn said— I live at
No. 18, Bedford-street, Red Lion-square, wherd the
Working Man's Emigration Society is held. I lodge
with my husband and family in the top part of
the house. The defendant is the landlord of the
house. On Friday last I was in the wash-house,
when Mr. Soper came in and took hold of me.
I pushed him away. He wanted me to kiss hint, and
he asked me to kiss him. I told him of his brutal con-
duct towards me, and said it was cruel. I asked him
whether he had forgotten his cruelty towards me on the
Monday before. He said he did not remember. I told
bins his conduct had been cruel to me all the week. He
said, " What dirty petticoats you have got on," and he
pulled me about and broke my stay bone and bruised
me. He then went away into his office. My child,
three years of age, was in the yard when he ill-used me,
and screamed. On Monday he pulled me into his office,
and shut me in. I saw no more of hint until Friday.
My husband was up stairs and heard the screams of the
child, and saw defendant ill-using me. My husband
spoke to him and he denied it, and said it was an attempt
to extort money from him. I had complained to the
neighbourhood of the defendant's 'conduct towards me.
Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the defendant what he had:to say
to the charge ?
Defendant—l deny it in toto. It is a trumped-up
charge to extort money from me. (To complainant)—
Will you swear you did not follow me into my office ?
Complainant—l will, you bad man. I have five chil-
dren.
- husband was never jealous of e=

By Soper—My L.. _ me.
Defendant--I solemnly declare that I know nothing
A what she charges me with.
James Stockeld said he is a clerk employed ',at the
Working Man's Emigration Society," and gave evi-
dence with a view to show that the defendant was
absent from the house at the time of the alleged
assault.

William Jeffs said that he is one of the directors of the
" Working Man's Emigration Society," residing in
Gough-street, Bryanstone-square.
Defendant—Have you ever observed any levity on the
part of Mrs. Skinner.
Witness—l must say I have witnessed familiarity
bot Ween Mr. Soper and complainant. I saw Mr. Soper
kiss Mrs. Skinner in the drawing-room. I was there at
the time. She did not resist him ; she begged of him
not to repeat it, as her husband might hear of it.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Did you not think it odd that she
should select a time to kiss Mr. Soper in the drawing.
room when you were present ?
Witness (with sang froid)—Why, yes.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—And I suppose you thought it rather
odd too that Mr. Soper, the secretary of the "Working
Man's Emigration Society," should kiss Mrs. Skinner in
the presence of one of the directors of the society? (To
Jeffs) :—Pray, how did he kiss her ?
Jeff—He kissed her with jocularity. (A laugh.)
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Did he ever kiss her in the board-
room ?

Witness—l never saw him.
Mrs. Skinner assured the court that the defendant
and his witnesses had stated nothing but falsehoods.
Defendant said he could produce witnesses to prove
an alibi.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would not shut him out from
that. The evidence of his two witnesses availed him
nothing. He must say that the evidence of Jeffs, the
director, was most extraordinary, and thatlMrs. Skin-
ner was entitled to every credit from the manner in
which she gave her evidence. He would remand the
case for further evidence.

found ; the forehead is too high, :Ind much more
strongly developed ; the hair is thin and entirely
different, the deceased having thick curly hair,
and the photograph only showing a thinness of
hair. I exceedingly regret your situation, and from
the respectability of Mr. Tyre, your solicitor, as well as
the situation of Mr. Walker, solicitor of Hull, and of
Mr. Edmund Astropp, and to which, I may add, not-
withstanding extraordinary letters you have from Ca-
tholic priests, they, as a body and church, will feel it a
duty incumbent on them to relieve your distressed mind
as soon as the facts are known to them, so that it is
more than probable you will be in but a short time sa-
tisfied that the father of your child, and your husband,
still lives.

"Oh,

The poor woman, in convulsive exclamation,
pray God send it !"
Tendering her thanks for the commiseration shown
her, she left, and in the evening returned to Hull by
train.

DISTRESSING ATTEMPT OF A MOTHER
TO MURDER HER TWO CHILDREN BY
DROWNING.

Yesterday Anne Parker, a married woman, was
placed at the bar, before Mr. Long, at Marylebone,
charged with having wilfully, feloniously, and maliciously
attempted to drown her children, Henry Parker, aged
six years, and Thomas Parker, aged four years, by
throwing them into the Regent's Canal, Regent's Park.
The prisoner, who was of short stature, and whose
right eye was blackened and swollen, as if from the
effect of some severe blow, was accompanied by her off-
spring, who stood on either side of her. It was evident
to all in court, from their manner, that they had been
well brought up, while they exhibited the most sincere
affection to their unfortunate parent, which was plainly
reciprocal on her part.
The nature of the charge having been stated to the
magistrate, ..
Police constable White, D 125, said that about a
quarter-past six o'clock on the previous evening he was
on duty at the north side of the Regent's Park, when his
attention was drawn towards the Regent's Canal by hear-
ing some exclamations of distress, which appeared to
proceedfrom the voices of children. He proceeded towards
the spot, when, upon reaching the slope that inclines from
the park to the bank on the side of the canal, he observed
the prisoner, who had one of her children in her arms,
looking about. He at the same time observed another
child in the water. He hastened to her, and reached
her before she effected her purpose, which, from her
confession afterwards, was to throw the child into the
canal. He pushed her on one side and jumped into the
water to rescue the one which was -there, and at a few
feet from the bank. This was the younger one of the
two. He got it ashore just as its head was sinking be-
low the surface of the water. Had he not arrived at
the moment he did he had no doubt but that the child
would have been drowned, as the water was at that
part about seven feet in depth. After the cbild was
brought out he observed a small basket, which led him
to suppose that a younger child might have been thrown
in by the prisoner. He made a search, but, while doing
so, ascertained that there was no other child there. He
told her that she must go with him to the station-house.
She offered some resistance, and said that, if he had not
made his appearance at the time he did, it was her in-
. ..

tention to have drowned the child she had in her arms,
and then to have thrown herself into the canal. When
they got to the top of the bank she tried to release her-
self from him, and partially succeeded, to run down the
bank. He had much difficulty in taking her to the
station-house, where, while the charge was being taken,
sue again said that she intended to do for the two
children.

Mr. Long—To do for them ?
Witness—Yes, sir ; for them, she sad, and herself.
She was very violent, and it took three policemen to
place her in the cell.
Mr. Long—Did she say where she came from ?
Witness—She said that she came from Essex.
Mr. LongEDid she-say from what part of Essex ?

Witness—Yes, from Plaistow.
Mr. Long—Did she cay where her husband was ?
Witness—She stated that her husband had deserted
her, and that he had done so several times.
Mr. Long—WaT, there any other remark made by
her ?

Witness —Yes, Sour worship; on her way to the
police court that morning she observed that had he
(witness) not been at the canal she would have finished
herself and her two young children.
Mr. Long—Did she tell you the name of the youngest
child ?

Witness—Yes ; that it was Thomas Parker. She
had 3s. in silver and 7d. in copper in her pocket. There
was also a pawnbroker's ticket of a petticoat, pledged
on the 17th of August last.
Mr. Long asked the prisoner if she had any question
to put to the witness ?.

The Prisoner, in a low tone of voice, replied that she
had not.
There being no other witnessr, Mr. Phillipps subse-
quently took the deposition of the constable's evidence,
which, having been read over in the presence of the

prisoner,
Mr. Long, after giVing her the usual caution that
what she had to say would be taken down and might be
produced in evidence against her, asked her if she had
anything to say ? _ _

The prisoner stated that it was trouble which had led
her to attempt to destroy her children ; that on Satur-
day last her husband knocked her about and tried to
strangle her.
Mr. Long—Have you anything more to say ?
Prisoner—Yes, sir. My husband left me six months
ago, and 10 days ago as well. He said he would kill
me last night if I was at home. He cut my head
and ear with a stick.
Mr. Long—ls that all ?
Prisoner—l have nothing further to say.
Mr..Long—lt is a most awful case, for had not the
constable interfered at the moment he did, you
would have been guilty of the murder of your child, if
not of both of them, to which you expressed your inten-
tion to add the dreadful offence of your own destruction.
He would send her to a place where she would have the
advice of a chaplain, which he hoped would bring her to
a sense of the enormous guilt with which she was
chamed.
M.r. Long, seeing Mr. Tubbs, relieving officer of the
parish of St. Marylebone, in court, observed that he sup-
posed the parish would take care of the children, and
would endeavour to find the father.
Mr. Tubbs said that the children should be at once
admitted, and that he would endeavour to find the
father.

The prisoner was then fully committed to take her
trial at the ensuing Central Criminal Court.
The prisoner, on parting from her children, kissed
them affectionately. She remarked to them that they
soon would be separated, when they would never see
her any more. She urged them to say their prayers,
and told them to inform their father what had been her
instruction to them.

which was perforated, as were also the mucous mem-
brane of the mouth and throat. He had analysed
the contents of the stomach and found the presence of
sulphuric acid or oil of vitriol. He assigned the death
to sulphuric acid.
By the Coroner—The other organs were quite healthy.
The liver did not show the least signs of deceased's hav-
ing been addicted to drinking. There was no appearance
whatever of delirium tremens.

The Coroner then summed up, and having pointed out

the bearing of the law with regard to the state of mind
of deceased at the time, cited " Blackstone" as an autho-

rity ; and
The Jury, after a long discussion, divided, when there
appeared—for felo de se, 10 ; and for temporary insanity,
6. After holding out for some time, the minority gave
way, and a verdict of Febo de .se was returned by 12 of
the jury.
The proceedings then terminated.
