CORONER'S INQUEST.

Yesterday afternoon an Inquest was held be-
fore Mr. CALL, the 'Coronet, at the Coach-and-Horses, in
Dean's-yard, Westminster, on the body of Mary Hargrove, the
keeper of a house of accommodation in the Almonry, West-
minster. whose death was currently reported to have been
caused by the gross ill-treatment of her husband, in conse.
quence of which the neighbourhood was in a state of agitation
during the investigation before the Coroner anti Jury.
Mary Ann Turner, residing at No. 7, in the Almonry, West-
minster, of which house the deceased was landlady, stated that
on Tuesday evening she took tea at a neighbour's house, with
her husband and a seafaring man, a friend, who had recently
returned from sea, and came home about half-past seven o'clock
in the evening, in a state of inebriation. It was proposed by
the husband and the other man to take a walk to some
place, and the deceased expressed a wish to accompany them,
but •the husband • told her she had better go to bed, and
they would go by themselves. This seemed to grieve her,
and she cried very much. She, after the two men had lea
the room, seated herself on the bed-side, and instantly fell back-
wards, and struck her head against the bedstead foot. Wit-
ness ran to ber and lifted her up, but she seemed to he dead ;
she then called another young woman to take care of her whilst
she went after her husband, whom she overtook before he got
a dozen yards from the door. Witness told hint-what had hap-
pened, and.he returned to the house directly, and she was then
quite dead. A doom was instantly sent for, but it was not till
an hour had elapsed that a medical man came, who declared
that had he been in the room at the time she fell he could not
have prolonged tier life.
Coroner.—Are yoa-sure that no one pushed her down, or that
no blow was given her by any person ?—I saw no blow given
her at all.

Juror.—l have heard there had been a very serious quarrel
between the parties; was that the case ?—1 heard of none.•
Coroner.-4 also understood that the woman had been mur-
dered. Did the deceased and her husband live happily toge-
ther ?—I never knew to the contrary ; she was a very sober
woman, and I can only attribute her being in such a state of
drunkenness at the time of her death, to the meeting of the
sea-taring man who had been away for a length of time.
Juror.—Do you recollect the deceased asking Mrs. Mitcham,
a neighbour; to treat her with a glass of gin do, Sir. -
The Juror who.asked the question said, that the motive he
had for asking, arose from his having heard that the deceased,
on being refused the gin, exclaimed, that " she hoped God
might strike her dead the next time she entered Mrs. Mitcham's
shop." (Mrs. Mitcham keeps a shop in the chanillery line.)
Another witness, named Mary Boyne, gave a similar account
of the circumstance as stated by the last witness ; adding, that •
the medical gentleman attributed her death to excessive drink-
ing. she never knew them to have a quarrel.
The beadle said, that after the report which had gained such
credit in the neighbourhood, of the deceased having been tutu-
tiered, came to his knowledge, he had taken a deal of trouble j
in making inquiries respecting the busineSs; the result of which
was a total negative to the account so generally propagated.
The Coroner said, that from the evidence that had been
brought forward, he was of opinion that the deceased died from
suffocation produced by the potations of liquor she had taken.
The medical gentleman who was called in stated, that, fnan
what he had seen of the deceased, he thought she had died a
natural death, but could not tell the cause that produced it.
Witness was of opinion, that had he been there at the moment,
he could not have saved her.
The Jury, after some consultation, found a verdict, " That
the deceased died by the visitation of God."

bouthood of the metropolis, where the crops promise great luxu-

FRENCH PAPERS.

( From the Journal de Paris of Monday, June C.)

NURE LIR°, MAX 31.—( Private Correspondence. )—lm-
portant dispatches frOm Vienna and Constantinople have ar-
rived at the same time at WarsaW. The Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Count Nesselrode, immediately laid them before his
Majesty the Emperor. tlt is observed‘tbat his Excellency is
constantly engaged with the Emperor, an that Couriers are
frequently sent to the different European capitals.

It is affirmed that the Russian Cabinet .is at this moment
much engaged in the affairs of Greece, and that a new plan of
pacification has been proposed. Count Nesselrode has just re-
ceived the particulars of the first advantages obtained by the
Greeks over the Ottoman armies.

It appears certain that the Emperor Alexander will remain
at Warsaw till the closing of the Diet, after which he will re-
turn directly to St. Petersburgh.
MADRID, MAY 96.—The Gazette of to-day contains a de-
cree of D. Juan Recacho, Intendant General of Police, ad in-
terim. It is preceded by a long preamble, on the necessity of

enemies to the King, and to order, and contains the following

ed according to the preceding article.
" 3. Keepers of hotels, cofree-houses, taverns, and other
public establishments of all kinds, shall hinder political discus-
sions • in .their houses, and the quarrels to which these discus.
sions might lead, desouncing to the inspector of the quarter
the censures passed on the Government, and the plans formed
a,gainst the safety of the inhabitants,. against our holy religion,
against the authorities, and against good morals. The delin-
quents shall be punished, the first time, by a fine of 100

penalty shall be inflicted on those who shall have read, or know
of such pamphlets, without giving information of them.

copy, and read painphlets or letters, signed, which treat on
such subjects in a revolutionary manner, without immediately
giving notice to the Police.
" 7. Those who shall hold public or private meeting in which
