CORONERS' INQUELTS.

SUICIDE. On Saturday afternoon an Inquest
was held at the Rodney's Head, Rodney-street, Penton-
vine, before THOMAS STIRLING, Esq. on view of the body
of 111 r. James Finli, a Jew, who lodged at No. 16, John-
street, Pentonville. Previously to the arrival of the Cot'oner,
the Clerk proceeded to take down the evidence of the wit-
nesses before the Jury were sworn. The Gentlemen summoned
to attend as Jurors observed, that such a proceeding was im-
proper, because it was giving them an ex parte view of the
case, before they were legally sworn to hear the evidence.—
The Clerk said that it was done to expedite the business by
the time the Coroner arrived. The Jury, however, persisted
in their opinion, and the clerk desisted.--By the evidence ad-
duced, it appeared that the deceased had gone up stairs to his
bed-room between 11 and 12 o'clock, and shortly aftenvards the
bedroom,
rooi3ell was heard to ring violently. The servant maid and
her mistress went up stairs, but found the door fast. They imme-
diately gave an alarm—the mistress shrieking wildly at the door
till the watchman arrived. The watchman broke the panel of
the bed-room door, and putting his hand\ through, he undid the
bolts. On entering the room, a most shocking spectacle pre-
sented itself ; they found the deceased lying on the bed with his
throat dreadfully cut across, so much so, that the head was
nearly severed from the body. It appeared that he had
commenced cutting his throat with a razor while standing before
the dressing-glass ; from thence he had walked round to the bed-
side, and thrown himself on the bed. The blood had rushed so
impetuously from the wound, that it extinguished the candle,
which was found standing on the bed, allover blood. In his fall
he must have caught hold of the bell-rope; for it was found
grasped in his hand, which occasioned the violent ringing.—
A lady, residing at Nortonfalgate, who had known the de-
ceased for several years, said that he had dined with her on
Friday, when he complained much of his head. She had fre-
quently observed, for some time past, that his mind was much
affected. He had failed in business about ten 'months ago, and
,that circumstance had since preyed upon his mind. He was a:
general merchant in the city. The Coroner observed, that
from all the circumstances it appeared the deceased had com-
mitted the rash act under the momentary impulse of aber-
ration of mind. There was a striking similarity between his
case and that of the late lamented Sir Samuel Romilly,
who, on hearing his niece coming up the stairs, went and bolted
the door: The deceased seemed to have taken the same pre-
cautions. The Jury returned-a verdict of " Insanity."
