right side of the neck and through the throat, wound-
ing the gullet, and, striking against the clavical ver-
tehrx, descended between the external and internal
carotid arteries in the direction of the sternomastoi-
dens muscle, and came out a littl2 posteriorly, where
it was found among the clots o: blood in the collar of
the shirt. Witness gave up the case on the arrival
of Mr. Halford, of the firm of Bowling and Halford,
surgeons of Hammersmith, the medical attendant of
the family.
Mr. Halford deposed to having seen Captain Monk-
house between one and two o'clock that afternoon.
He was in a state of great danger.
The prisoner was then remanded until Wednesday
next.

A FATHER SIIOT BY HIS SON
Late on Thursday night the neighbourhood of
Chiswick and Hammersmith was thrown into a state
of great excitement by its becoming known that a
dreadful attempt at assassination had been made at
the residence of Captain John Fenner Monkhouse,
situated on the Mall, fronting the River Thames at
Chiswick. Captain Monkhouse himself was the un-
fortunate victim of this horrible crime, and the per-
petrator was his second son, Henry Monkhouse, a
sailor, who is now in custody.
It appears that the occurrence took place about
half-past ten o'clock, when a cab drove up to the outer
gate of the premises, and the bell was rung by the
cabman. It was answered by one of the female ser-
vants, whom the cabman told that a gentleman in
the cab wished to see Mr. Monkhouse. The servant
went in with the message, and in a minute or two
afterwards Captain Monkhouse came to the front
door. On seeing him, the son, Rho was inside the
cab, exclaimed—" I see him ; there he is ;" sprang
out of the cab, and instantly discharged a pistol
at his parent, which took effect in his
neck. Mr. Monkhouse, senior, immediately fell,
and at that moment a second pistol was discharged,
which, however, lodged in the ceiling of the hall. The
son then jumped into the cab, which was immediately
driven off in the direction of Acton. Mr. Perfect,
surgeon, of Hammersmith-terrace, the nearest medical
man, was sent for, and instantly attended, when the
unfortunate gentleman was removed to his bedroom,
and, on examination, it was found that a ball had
entered the front of the neck, and passing the wind.
pipe and the carotid artery, had passed out under
the right ear, and was found in the nape of the neck.
Information was then given to the police on duty near
the house, and was immediately forwarded to the head
station at Brook-green, Hammersmith, with a descrip-
tion of the son. Inspector Jecks, T division, who was
on duty at the head station, instantly dispatched
police-constable, Henry Reason, T 247, one of the
mounted patrols, in the direction the cab had taken,
and copies of the description of the accused were
also forwarded by constables in cabs to the nearest
stations of each of the other divisions, with
directions to take instant measures to secure
the fugitive ; to which promptitude of action is
mainly to be attributed the caption of the assassin
by the patrol Reason, at the Bell public-house, Ealing,
from which he was removed to the head station,
where he arrived before 12 o'clock. On him were
found a pistol, several bullets, percussion caps, and
some gunpowder. The prisoner made no answer to
the charge when it was read to him at the station,
and he was then removed to one of the lock-ups--a
constable being placed in attendance with him during
the night, in order to prevent any attempt at self-
destruction. The excitement caused on Thursday
night was yesterday greatly increased, and the mur-
derous attempt forming the principal topic of conver-
sation throughout the district, the family of Captain
Monkhouse having been long resident at Shepherd's
Bush, Hammersmith, and Chiswick. From inquiries
made at the residence of the unfortunate gentleman it
appeared that he was still alive, but in a most dangerous
state. Throughout the day a crowd was collected in
front of his residence. Long before the hour appointed
for the opening of the Hammersmith Police court
(two o'clock) a large crowd had assembled outside,
anxious to obtain admission to hear the examination
of the prisoner, who was brought from the station-
house on Brook green about half-an-hour before.
Mr. Beadon, the sitting magistrate, took his seat on
the bench at two o'clock precisely, when those who
were concerned in the case were admitted into the
body of the court, which will not hold above thirty
or forty persons. Amongst the leading inhabitants
present were Mr. J. Frere (a local magistrate), the
Rev. Mr. Bowerbank (Vicar of Chiswick), Captain
West, &c. Shortly afterwards the prisoner was
placed at the bar. He appeared to be about 5 feet
inches high, stout made, and' florid complexion, with
dark brown hair. Throughout the examination he
maintained the utmost composure, and seemed utterly
careless about the painful situation in which he was
placed.
The charge entered on the police-sheet was as fol-
lows :—" Henry Bathurst Monkhouse, aged 27 years,
a mariner, charged with discharging a loaded pistol
at John Farmer Monkhouse, in the parish of Chis-
wick, with intent to do him some grievous bodily
harm."
Elizabeth Baines was the first witness called—She
deposed that she was in the service of Captain Monk-
house. She knew the prisoner at the bar, who was
the second son of her master. On the previous night,
shortly after ten o'clock, she answered a ring at
the gate bell, and on opening it saw a cabman stand-
ing there and a cab in the road. The cabman asked
her if Captain Monkhouse was at home ; and on her
replying in the affirmative, he said, a gentleman in
the cab wished to speak with him. Witness shut the
gate to go to tell her master, whom she met in the
doorway of the house, and told him what the cabman
had said. Captain denkhouse desired her to go and
ask the name of the gentleman ; and she went back
to the gate and asked the cabman what the gentle-
man's name was. The cabman replied that he did
not know; and at that instant the prisoner rushed
past them, exclaiming, "I'm a Monkhouse, and I'll
speak to him." She then saw the prisoner rush for-
ward towards her master, and directly heard two
shots go " bang, bang 1" Witness saw her master
fall, and the prisoner instantly bounced out of the
gate, while she went to her master's assistance, and
found him crawling on his hands and knees into the
front parlour.
By Mr. Beadon—Could not say where the prisoner
came from, as she did not see him until he rushed in
the gate. Saw him take something out of the breast
of his coat, which she believed was a pistol.
The prisoner declined to ask the witness any
question.
William Siezer deposed that he was the driver of
the cab No. 613, belonging to Mrs. Birch, cab pro-
prietor, Horseferry-road, Westminster. On the
previous evening, betwen seven and eight o'clock, he
was on the stand in the Minories, when the prisoner
asked him the fare to Chiswick. Witness told him
that it was nine miles, and with back fare it would be
14s. The Er
agreed to go. Witness followed
him into Er public-house opposite the stand to have
something to drink. Having had what he wished,
he went into the parlour, where the prisoner was sit-
ting. On entering, the prisoner was in the act of
putting his hand into his trousers pocket and had
before him on the table a lot of silver money, which
the prisoner attempted to hide. Witness went out
and told the landlord of the circumstance,
who went into the parlour, and in a minute or two
the prisoner came out and got into the cab, and
witness drove off. On reaching the White Horse,
Knightsbridge, the prisoner told him to pull up.
They went inside and had some drink. The prisoner
seemed to be known there, and told the woman at
the bar that he would bring her some scent, and left
his handkerchief as a pledge. Witness then drove on
to Chiswick, calling at several public-houses on the
way, the last being the Black Lion, in Black Lion-
lane, near the prisoner's father's house. The prisoner
got out there and went in and spoke to the landlady,
who seemed to know him ; but he had nothing to
drink. The prisoner then got on the box with the
witness to show him his father's house, where the cab
was to stop. The witness then corroborate d the tes-
timony of the first witness as to the delivery of the
message, and her returning to the gate to ask the
gentleman's name, and the prisoner, who was at that
time standing on the further side of the cab in the
road, rushing on to the gate and his hearing a noise.
The witness was here very closely questioned by
Mr. Beadon as to what the noise was. The witness
at first said like something falling, but a* lee, ad-
mitted it was like a report of a gun or pistol.
Exatnination continued—When the prisoner came
out, witness asked him what that noise was. The
prisoner smiled and said, " Oh, that is nothing." The
prisoner then got into the cab and ordered him to go
back into the high road, and pull up at the White
Hart public-house round the corner. W itness there
asked him for his fare as he had brought him to his
destination, but he said he wanted to go to Baling,
four miles further, and witness agreed to go there for
a sovereign. On reaching the Bell public- house on the
Uxbridge road, at Ealing, he stopped witness and
went inside, and on his return he told him to drive him
to his brother's house at Castlebar-hill, which he did.
The prisoner there rang several times, but it was not
answered, and witness drove him back to the Bell.
Witness there asked him for the sovereign (his fare),
hut the prisoner said he bud no sovereigns to spare.
While witness:was speaking to the landlord relative to
the fare the patrol came in and took the prisoner into
custody.
The patrol then deposed to apprehending the pri-
soner. Oa asking him if his name was Monkhouse
he said it was not, and asked witness what he wanted
with him. Witness told he must go with him to the
Baling station, and called another constable to his
aid. At the station the prisoner pulled out from the
two pockets of his coat the barrel and stock of the
pistol produced, which he screwed together and
handed to witness. The prisoner said, "If I had a
brace of loaded pistols I'd blow my brains out."
Witness found in his waistcoat pocket eight bullets,
six percussion caps, and some gunpowder; also some
documents in the name of Monkhouse. He subse-
quently brought him in the cab to the head station at
Hammersmith.
Mr. Thomas W. 0. Perfect, the first surgeon called
in, was next examined. He deposed that he was
fetched about a quarter past ten o'clock on the previ-
ous night by Miss Monkhouse. On reaching the
house he found Captain Monkhouse in a back bed-
room, and ordered his removal to his own bedroom.
The captain was very faint, and vomiting blood,
On examining his neck, he saw that a ball had
passed through the black stock the captain wore at
the time, and perforated the flesh of the neck exactly
over the thyroid cartilage of the windpipe, or centre
of the most projecting point of the windpipe. It did
not perforate the air tube, but passed down on the

Up to a late hour last night the wounded gentleman
was still living.

NEWS OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN'S

EXPEDITION.

We are indebted to the Shipping and Mercantile
Gazette of last night for the following further in-
teresting details :

TO THE EDITOR 01' THE SKIPPING AND MERCANTILE

GAZETTE.
" Pilot-office, Hull, Oct. 4.
" Sir,—l have no small gratification in being able
to forward what I believe to be an authentic account
of Captain Franklin and his companions. The True-
love, Parker, arrived her last night from Davis'
Straits, bringing a plan which Captain Kerr, of the
Superior, received from an Esquimaux, describing
the ships under Franklin to be beset on the north
side of Barrow's Straits, and Sir J. Ross's ships on
the south side; he also states that on the 30th of
March, this year, he (the native) was on board
Franklin's ships, and that a daily communication was
maintained between the respective commanders. The
plan is drawn by lead pencil, and is a very creditable
production. Thomas Ward, Esq , the owner of the
Truelove, will by this snail forward the plan and
other information to the Lords of the Admiralty, to

whom he has already forwarded a telegraphic com-
munication. Sincerely hoping and believing that
this information is based on a sound foundation,

" I am, Sir, yours obediently,

OF WALES AND OTHER WHALERS.—RUMOURED
INTELLIGENCE OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN.—The John

0' Groat's Journal of Friday night contains a para-
graph to the following effect A letter has just been
received here from Kirkwall, announcing the arrival
there of Captain Paterson, of the Jane, of Newcastle,
and Captain Lee, of the Prince of Wales,of Hull (both
vessels having been wrecked at Davis's Straits), with
30 men, brought by a Danish vessel. Captain Pat‘rson
has in his possession a sealed bottle with some docu-
ments from Sir John Franklin, addressed to the Ad-
miralty, and picked up by the natives. The contents
are not known. Lady Franklin is in a neighbouring
island, and is not aware of this important arrival."
Upon this subject, we may state that we have seen
Captain Lee, who arrived here on Monday last, by
railway, from Edinburgh, and who states that the
bottle in Captain Paterson's possession was picked up
in 1845, about four years ago, by some of the Es-
quimaux, who:gave it to the inspector of one;; of
the Danish settlements, and that officer gave it to
Captain Paterson this year to bring to England, but
it cannot be of the slightest service towards unra-
velling the mystery which at present surrounds the
position of Sir John and his brave companions, who
were in latitude aboutl 66 deg. N. when the bottle
was thrown overboard. On the 19th of July, Capt.
Lee boarded the North Star discovery ship, in
search of Sir John Franklin, of whom her commander
had then heard no tidings. The North Star was in
lat. 73 50, and pursuing her way to the northward,
with all well on board. Captain Lee gives us the
following particulars of the loss of his own
vessel and of two others, together with the most
recent intelligence of the progress of the fishery :
The Prince of Wales was wrecked on the 12th July,
in lat. 74 30, by
_being " nipped" or subjected to
heavy pressure between two floes of ice. She had on
board 1 fish, 17 tuns. The Lady Jane, of New-
castle, and the Superior, of Peterhead, were similarly
wrecked on the 12th June, and the united crews of
those two vessels had subsequently to pull between
three and four hundred miles, in open boats, to reach
the Danish settlements, where they all arrived in
safety. Their united strength would be of great
assistance to them in their journey. The Lady Jane
was the property of Messrs. Plummer and Co.' of
Newcastle. She was built in London in 1772, has
been afloat 77 years, and registered 390 tons. It is
reported that at the time she was crushed in the ice
she was a full ship, The Prince of Wales was alone
when she was lost, and many miles distant from
either vessels or land- The headland called the
Devil's Thumb bore about S.E. by E.,
distant forty miles. Seven boats
_were `manned
and laden with provisions and a few clothes, but
the distance which they had to travel, the difficulty
of moving the boats over the ice, which lay between
the wreck and the open water, and the perils of a
subsequent journey of 300 miles over the sea, before
they could reach any human habitation, compelled
them to desist from bringing much clothing, and
many cf the men lost nearly all except what they
stood in. The crew consisted of 48 souls-24 being
Shetlandmen and 24 from Hull. Strong gales from
the southward were blowing, with thick hazy wea-
ther, when Captain Lee and his comrades were com-
pelled to abandon the ship to save their lives. The
journey over the ice occupied nearly eight days, and
their passage over the open sea was made in nearly
four more. On the 19th of July they boarded the
North Star, as above described, and were kindly
received by her commander, but did not require any
assistance. On the 221, they saw the Lord Gam-
bier, of Hull, with no fish, but about four tuns of oil,
the rroduce of seals, &c. On the 23J, they reached
the Danish settlement Proven. They were consider-
, ably exhausted by the fatigue and loss of sleep during
their travel, but were otherwise in perfect health.
After remaining three weeks at Proven, they pro-
ceeded in a Danish vessel to Lively, or
God Haven, as it is called by the Danes. It
is the capital of their settlements. Here they
remained until the 27th August, when they
left in another Danish ship, and were landed upon
the Orkney island " Papa Westre," on the 27th Sep-
tember (Thursday last), from whence Captain Lee and
ten others of the crew proceeded on the same day, in
a large boat, for Kirkwall, the capital of the Orkney
Isles; from whence, on the 28th, they sailed in a
clipper for Leith, leaving the mate and thirty• seven of
the crew in the Orkneys, to be forwarded by other
vessels. On the 30th, Captain Lee left Edinburgh,
and arrived here on the Ist inst. On the 12:h of
June the following ships got safely through the
"nip," and proceeded to the northward and west-
ward : —Alexander, of Dundee, with four fish;
Advice, same port, four fish ; Horn, same port, four
fish ; Princess Charlotte, of same [port, three fish ;
James Green, of Peterhead, clean ; and Truelove, of
Hull, six fish—seventy tuns. The Pacific, of Aber-
deen, seen about the same tune, was clean. The
Lord Gambier, of Hull, had, cn the 22d of July, four
tuns of seal and other oil ; the Jane, of Boness, six
fish—ninety tuns ; the Chieftain, of Kirkaldy, eleven
bottle noses—sixteen tuns ; Regalia, of the same port,
clean. The Abram was understood to be to the
southward of the other ships, and her success was not
known. The French ships engaged in the cod fishery
on the banks of Newfoundland have had very bad
success during the present season; several were re-
urning with less than half a cargo.

as a prophecy, but as the impression on his mind, with
which she professed to h:ae some wystereus means of
communication.

"It is true that she saii that be had only three per-
sons with him; but other p'irties of his M2ll are follow-
ing in the same direction, though some were separated
from him. She saw also the shells (deal bodies) of
others in different postures under the snow. And she
described graphically enough the deer, will cattle, wild
men, and rough tangled forests that she passed in going
to him ; with an animal striped down the back and
sides, which leaps very far, and may be the panther or
wild cat.
" She also professed to go and visit his ships, one of
which she said was under weter, with very thick tim-
bers, the other above it. And an old letter being also
possessed from Sir James Ross, she was sent to visit
him too. For this purpose she said she had to go much
further. He is fast in the ice, and unable to turn his
ship round, but intends returning to England when he
can. She added that it was snowing heavily when she
saw him ; he had net seen Sir John Franklin. The
difference between his apparent time and that at Bolton
was nearly eight hours, corresponding to 110 degrees to
115 degrees west ; and when required subsequently to
show the place on the map, she pointed to Baulees' Land
almost at once, a position full of probability.
" Sir James Ross, she says, is well, but much an-
noyed at being stopped. Another ship is not far from
him, and neither of these have sails set. But their is a
third ship much nearer, under sail, and coming ap-
parently *cm their direction; her difference of time is
only two hours and a half, corresponding to 35 degrees
to 40 degrees west. (Can this be the transport sent out
last spring to renew their supplies?) She mentioned
this ship first herself; only one person in the room
knew that such a vessel had been sent, and in his in-
terest for the principal persons concerned, he had not
thought of the transport sent to their relief till this third
ship was mentioned.
She expressed great astonishment at finding the clocks
differ so much, and said they should be sent to the
watchmakers to put them right. She also described Sir
James Ross as being stouter than Sir John Franklin,
and in better case (' more squash,' were her words).
Sir John's cheeks, she said, are somewhat sunk through
his fatigues, but his health is good, and he has now
abundance to eat. Her descziption of his person was
otherwise sufficiently near, and she specifically men-
tioned his being bald.
" These, then, are the principal statements that were
thus elicited. Many other details were added, not
without interest, but this communication is already
too long. Including the mesmeriser, four gentlemen
were present during most of the time they were col-
lected. They will gain various degrees of present cre-
dit, according to the temperament of those who may
receive them; and, in truth, it would seem premature
at present to place much reliance on them, though in
these days, when we make the lightning carry our mes-
sages and the sun take our portraits, it is very difficult
to draw the precise line betwixt the possible and im-
possible. In any case, it will be for the interest of truth
that they'are recorded when collusion is impossible. I
enclose my card to authenticate my letter, but I do not
wish my name published.
" I alb, Sir, your very obedient servant,
46 '

The following extraordinary letter has been ad
dressed to the editor of the Manchester Guardian:—
" Sir,—ln the Manchester Guardian of Saturday lasi
September 29th, you have inserted a short notice of in.
quiries recently made of the Bolton clairvoyante re
specting the late of Sir John Franklin, which, besides
being essentially incorrect, seems calculated unnecessa-
rily to increase the uneasiness felt by his friends regard-
ing him. As a party concerned I feel it a duty, therefore,
though with aired reluctance, to communicate the real
facts to you in detail. If disbelieved, their publication
can do no harm; and if ever so little credited they are
rather encouraging than otherwise.
" Being cast into a mesmeric state, then, this woman
asserted positively. that Sir John Franklin is still alive
and now comparatively well. He has undergone great
hardships, but has overcome them, and is in good hope
of getting to England in nine months and a half, provided
no unforeseen accident occurs. The difference between
the apparent time where he is and at Bolton is nearly
six hours, indicating a difference of longitude of from
85 to 90. And afterwards, when asked, being still in
the mesmeric state, to endeavour to point on the map
where he is, she put her finger on the north-west side of
Hudson's Bay, which is not very far from this longitude,
though the map being on a very small scale, and very
inconveniently bound up, in a volume of the ' Penny
Cyclormilia,' and required by her to be rested on her
head, and held to her eyes, and thus reversed, no very
prscise indication could be so obtained.
" As she is perfectly uninstruct( d, and unable even to
read or write, it seems scarcely possible to suppose that
she can know any thing of maps whatever; and further,
the indication thus obtained, both by difference of time
and her pointing on the map, took the bystanders quite
by surprise. They had not the least idea of looking for
Sir John in this direction; and yet if his ships have
been wrecked or abandoned on the west coast of Boothia
or towards Victoria Land, it is possible, though it may
appear torus at present unlikely, that he may have tried
to return to the eastward inside of Boothia, which, %:f.hbene
he departed, was supposed to be an island. AD
has succeeded in overcoming the very gre.at. dadicklties
which must have attended each a route, this is precis Ely
the direction in which he would appear. And turther,
if he got this length too late in the. season to
.save the
Hodson Bay Company's autumn ship, his own.impres-
sion would naturally be. that he would be detained till
the ensuing spring, which would just make up the nine
months s
pacified before he expected to be in England;
given by the ehtirvoyfinte
this period not having been
