THE BERMONDSEY MURDER.—Yesterday afternoon
summonses were sent out from the office of Mr. Maule,
the Solicitor to the Treasury, to all the witnesses en-
gaged in this case, requesting their attendance at the
Central Criminal Court on Tuesday next, the 23d inst.,
at ten o'clock, on which day a bill will be preferred be-
fore the grand jury against the Mannings for the murder
of the late Patrick O'Connor. It was originally ex-
pected—indeed it was the intention of the Attorney-
General to fix Thursday re,xt for the trial of the pri-
soners, but in consequence of a letter which was received
yesterday morning from Mr. William Massey, one of the
principal witnesses, it is extremely doubtful whether the
trial of the prisoners will take place this session. Mr.
Massey, in his letter to Mr. Bodkin, one of the counsel
engaged by the Crown on behalf of the prosecution, states
that he is labouring under severe indisposition, and that
he is advised by his medical attendant that it will not be
prudent for him to leave his house for several days to
come, if at all during the ensuing session of the Central
Criminal Court. Should Mr. Massey not be able to at-
tend, it will be impossible for the Crown safely
to go to trial, as from the fact of Mr. Massey having fur
some time lodged in the houso of the Mannings, at
Minver-p lace, and having on several occasions been
asked by the Mannings what was the most deadly poison,
and also what was the best and safest method of destroy-
ing life, it is presumed that his evidence will tend in is
great measure to fix the crime upon the prisoners. In
order that there may be no mistake about the matter an
officer and a medical gentleman will this day be dis-
patched to Derbyshire to ascertain the real facts of Mr.
Massey'a indisposition, and should it be found that he is
in a fit state to undertake a journey to London, he will
be brought up on Monday morning. The counsel en•
gaged by the Crown to conduct the prosecution are the
Attorney-General, Mr. Bodkin, Mr. Walesby, and Mr.
Clark. Up to last night the prisoners had not definitively
engaged any Learned Gentlemen to conduct their cases,
but it is expected that funds will be produced to enable
Mrs. Manning to engage Mr. Wilkins, whom she parti•
cularly wishes to be retained. The male prisoner, it is
stated, wishes to retain Mr. Clarkson. Should the trial
take place on Thursday next, it will in' all probability
last till Saturday.
EGLINTON IRON WORlll.—The ancient town of
Kilwinning has been greatly improved, and its popula-
tion augmented, by the establishment of the Eglinton
ironworks in its immediate vicinity. The Messrs.
Baird, to whom these works belong, by their enterprise
have quite changed its appearance, and greatly increased
the comforts of the inhabitants. It must, therefore, be
subject of gratification to all to find their works con•
ducted with such spirit, and it is to be hoped profitably
to themselves. Three furnaces are in blast, and a fourth
one built will be so in a few weeks. The quantity of
iron manufactured daily amounts to about 100 tons.
The hands employed about these works, including the
miners at Dairy, number about 600; so that, reckoning
those depending on them, not less than 2,000 depend for
their daily bread on the prosperity of the company, WI"
winning is a great resort of those engaged in ornamentsl
needlework, fled the agents for this species of fanciful
embroidery give employment to a great many young
girls from the neighbouring towns.—Kilmarnock.lournal.
JUVENILE DEPRAVITY.—A few days ago, as John
Kewarth, ostler at the Red Lion Inn, Thorne, was at
work in his master's garden in the South Field, he was
attracted by the cries of a child at a distance, and pro-
ceeding to the place, he there found a poor little be/
named Rimmington sitting on the grass, covered with
dirt and mud, his face running down with blood, an
with nothing upon him except his shirt and flannel petti-
coat. Kewarth ascertained that he had been in comport,'
with three other boys, who had enticed him into the
Green-lane, under the promite of a halfpenny; tbsS
when there they stripped him, flogged him severely witil
a stick, threw him into a deep ditch, afterwards stone,
him, and then ran away, having first secreted the child
clothing in different parts of the lane. Chase was hums:
diately given, and one of the three, named Howard, wa'
captured, and made to find the missing articles of cloth'
leg. Had the poor child, who is scarcely four years old,
not been thus discovered, he would, in all probability,
have perished, for when found he was nearly starved to
death, and was quite unable to proceed any further. The,
three culprits were too young to be summarily dealt
with before a magistrate; their parents, however.. in;
flitted upon each a severe castigation, which it is to b
hcped will operate upon them as a warning for the future'
