THE LATE MURDER AND SUICIDE AT BANXBIDE
—An inquest was held on Thursday, at the George.
Bankside, Southwark, before Mr. W. Carter, on the
bodies of Ann Brown, aged 28, and her illegitimate off.
spring Cecilia, aged a year and a half, who were found
drowned in the river on Tuesday morning last. The
evidence was first taken as to the finding of the bodies.
They were discovered on Tuesday morning, at six o'clock,
lying in the mud, forming the bed of the river, at Bar.
clay and Perkins's Wharf, Bankside, the child being
firmly clasped in its mother's arms. Neither of them
bore the slightest marks of violence, and it was evident
that they had been left in the mud by the ebbing of the
tide. Elisabeth Freeman, of 10, Mint-street, Southwark,
was then examined : She said the deceased was her
sister, and resided at 20, Mint-street, with a coal-porter
named John Carey, who passed as her husband. The
last time witness saw her alive was on Monday night
last. The deceased had no coals nor food at home, and
with her three children had been staying at witness's
house all day, until Carey returned from work. When
the deceased left her, she did nut appear at all excited,
nor make any threat to destroy herself: Deceased and
her children were in great distress, otten being without
food for a whole day, and during the coldest night having
nothing for the covering of all but one sheet and a quilt,
with which they lay on the bare boards. Witness be-
lieved the deceased had drowned herself and child in con
sequence of dire distress. Mary Arnold, another sister
of thedeceased, said she Lad heard her say, when speak-
ing of her privations, The Thames shall be my doom,
and when I go my child shall go with me." The only
reply witness made was, that she (the deceased) would
never have the courage, and thought no more about it.
After some further evidence, the jury returned a verdict,
"That the child Cecilia was wilfully murdered by its
mother, Ann Brown, and that Ann Brown destroyed her
own life while in an unsound state of mind."

FREE TRADE BANQDET.—MANCHESTER.--There is
every prospect of the coming banquet being one of the most
exciting meetings that has yet bee❑ held in the famous Free
Trade-hall. Beyond a few advertisements no effort has been
made to make it known, and yet the whole of the tickets are
sold, and hundreds are daily applying for them in vain. The
interest increases daily, and there is little doubt that, had
the ball been able to accommodate double the number, it
would even then have been crowded to excess.

FALL OF RAILWAY ARCHES AT AIANCHESTER.—
Yesterday morning, shortly before five o'clock, a second of
the large arches which have been recently erected opposite
Gloucester-street, Manchester, and upon which the terminus
of the Altrincham Railway was intended to rest, fell in with
a terrific crash. The centres of this arch had not been re-
moved, but so great was the weight of the brickwork above,
that they were not able to support it. About nine o'clock a
second arch fell in, but as this was expected, the workmen
employed about the -ailway were warned of the danger, and
kept at a distance from the arches, so that no injury was
sustained by any party. The third and only remaining arch
was expected to fall in the course of yesterday evening, large
rents being visible in one or two parts of it. One of the
piers upon which the arches rested is shaken very much, and
will require to be taken down.
