THE MURDERED ITALIAN BOY.

(Further particulars, from the Observer of yesterday.)
On Saturday the body of the poor ill-fated lad was ex-
humed, for the purpose of being exhibited to an Italian,
named Augustine Bruin, an itinerant musician, in whose
service the deceased had been for some time. On the
body being raised from the grave, in the burial-ground
belonging to St. Paul's, Covent-garden (in Cleveland-
street), and the lid of the coffin being opened, the instant
he saw the features of the murdered boy he exclaimed—
" Mon pauvre garcon." He had no doubt of the identity
of the boy, and appeared to be deeply affected, frequently
repeating, with tears in his eyes, "Pauvre Carlo," and
Mon pauvre garcon." He stated that the poor boy's
name was Carlo Terrari, and the lad got his living for
some time by perambulating the streets of Londo❑ with
little natural curiosities, which were supplied to him for
the purpose of exhibition. The poor boy was well known
in most of the squares at the west end of the town, and
when he exhibited his white mice or tortoise to any gen-
tleman he would say—"Donnez une louis, Signor." The
painful ceremony of disinterring the corpse and examining
it being over, it was again consigned to the silent tomb.
Subsequent to this proceeding Mr. Thomas, Mr. Corder,
and Mr. Cribb, the foreman of the Coroner's inquest which
sat on the body of the deceased, proceeded to the Jere•
miser lately occupied by Bishop, in Nova Scotia-gardens,
Bethnal-green.
After a minute search they made such discoveries as
filled them with horror, and confirmed, in the most con-
clusive manner, the horrible, and, it is added, murderous
traffic in which the parties have been engaged. In the
evening the above gentlemen, Messrs. Corder, Thomas,
and Cribb went before Mr. Minshull, at Bow-street, and
communicated to him in private the result of their investi-
gation, which was of such a character as to strike the
worthy Magistrate with astonishment and terror. From
what we could collect—for the evidence is, for prudential
reasons, kept secret—the disclosures were such as to lead
to a belief that the most appalling crimes have been for a
long period committed, and that a system of murder has
been carried on which, when fully made known, will
produce the most terrific sensation in the public mind.
Mr. Corder and Mr. Thomas both urged to Mr. Minshull
the great importance of an immediate re-examination of
the prisoners, instead of delaying it till Friday next, the
day to which they were remanded. Mr. Minshull was so
persuaded of the expediency of the suggestion that be said
he was willing to proceed with the examination of the
prisoners that night, or even on Sunday, if the ends of
justice were likely to be promoted. After some further
conversation it was arranged that the prisoners should be
brought up on Monday (this day) at twelve o'clock, to
Bow-street, for which purpose directions were given. It
is believed that the case will present features infinitely
more dreadful than those which attended the detection of
the notorious Burke, in Edinburgh.

Bishop, on his return to his cell on Friday, thanked
Mr Thomas for his humane attention to the comforts of
his children since lie has been in custody ; and, in a sig
nificant manner, said that it could not be expected he
would say any thing to his own prejudice; for the pre-
sent, he said, his lips were sealed. Bishop has lost that
apparent confidence which he at first assumed, and mani-
fests a good deal of mental uneasiness.
From the wild and lonely situation of the residence of
Bishop, the man supposed to be the principal in the mur-
der of the Italian boy, it occurred to the officers engaged
in pursuing the investigation that other persons might
have been conveyed there, and disposed of in a similar
Way, and that a thorough examination of the premises
might lead to discoveries of great importance to the fur-
therance of justice. Accordingly, Joseph Higgins, the
police constable of Mr. Thomas's division, who has been
so active in the inquiry from its commencement, went
yesterday morning to Bishop's house, in Nova Scotia-
gardens, Bethnal.green, accompanied by another constable
of the division, who has been bred a gardener, and who
provided himself with tools to snake a most effectual
search. The cellar underneath Bishop's house was first
dug up and examined, but nothing found ; and the con-
stables next proceeded to dig up the garden at the back.
At this work they were occupied for upwards of six
hours, and nothing of importance was found until
Ilivgins observed that a portion of the garden which
appeared to have served as a track to the back part, and
had been much trodden upon, had not been disturbed, and
that it appeared to be composed of mixed soil, as though
it had been heaped up for a particular purpose. An in-
strument, called a " searcher, was then driven into the

Yesterday afternoon, between three antl,f;
o'clock, the inhabitants in the neighbourhood of BrirtV
terrace, Brixton, and its vicinity, were thrown intlllo/
greatest state of alarm, in consequence of a repor"ol
the wife of a jobbing gardener had destroyed her {ter
child by nearly severing its head from its body, ands bet
wards put a period to her own existence by cuttivioo'
throat. It appeared that between the hours above' ab'
tioned the unfortunate woman, during the temporori.„tte
sence of her husband, who had not been from home 00
than a few minutes, had laid violent hands on heretuie
her infant ; and on his return he found them both Weep
i;
ing in their blood, the latter quite dead, and the I°. Aa°
with a most frightful gash on the front of her throl.t;e
bleeding most copiously, but some symptoms of l'heia‘
maining. He instantly gave an alarm, and a coach
procured, the ill-fated woman was removed with all flier
ble speed to Guy's Hospital, but with little hopes °' Ore
recovery. It seemed that previous to her marring
was was a member of a most respectable family, helouo fat
the society of Quakers, but having married a pclllectta
inferior to herself in rank, she was discarded and neg.:•,,ali
by her friends. This circumstance preyed most scowl ole
on her mind, and for several months past she has beeinshal
serveal to he in a most desponding state, and it is eliu
she on a previous occasion attempted to take away hert°lo
life. A note in her hand-writing was found on tbe:bel
of the room, and the ink on which was scarcely dry ihad
it was so found, in which she stated that bee bulbar° tsts
always treated her most kindly, and that she had 00
slightest fault to find with hire.
