PRICE 7D.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HO USE.

---
A Swiss woman, named Caroline Sappie, applied to Al-
terman COWAN, to assist her in recovering her daughter,
pretty girl, sixteen years of age, who had gone away
from her on the f2d of June. The following are the cir-
cumstances under which the unfortunate mother made the
vplication

Her husband, although a struggling man, had conti ived
,o give the girl an excellent education, to make her mis-
-7 Tess of the English, French, and German languages, and
-0 perfect her in the knowledge of music. Having heard
tilt London was a good mart for musical talent, Caroline
Slppie -determined to make an experiment of her daughter's
tcconvlishment here, and purchased a harp, on which the
latter played delightfully. They arrived in London about
three months ago, and went to play and sing frequently in
the neighbourhood of Leicester-sqtiare, where, in some of
the French taverns, the little girl sometimes received 309.
or V. in the course of a day. The mother, however,
having two infants to attend to, was obliged to leave her
occasionally under the care of an old woman, and the man
who carried her harp from place to place, and it is be-
lieved that several gentlemen who resided in the square
were very desirous of taking advantage of her unprotected
condition. .The mother, having occasion to go to France
fora few days, heard, upon her return, that her daughter
had permitted a gentleman to call upon her, anti reproached
her, upon which the girl suddenly disappeared, and never
returned.

Alderman COWAN expressed his utmost willingness to
render the applicant all the assistance in his power.
The applicant said, in broken English, that the fugitive
had taken away with her the harp and six sovereigns, all
thc,money they bad in the world, and had heartlessly:left
her mother and the two babes without bread, or the means
of getting it.
Alderman COWAN said be believed he had seen the little
girl in the neighbourhood of the Royal Exchange a short,
time ago, and asked whether it was supposed she had been
taken away by any man.

• The applicant said she had been given to understand
that her daughter had dined .two or three times with a
gentleman who resided at one of the French hotels in
Leicester-square. There was reason to suspect that that
gentleman, if he had not possession of her himself; knew
where she was to be found, and it would be a great act of
charity in him to let her unhappy parent know something
about her, whether dead or alive, or in misery. The appli-
cant, however, had a heavier suspicion of a gentleman who
was often on the Royal Exchange, and whose name began
with an 0. That gentleman was in the habit of bringing
to the girl religious tracts, and giving her pious 'advice,
but he appeased to he rather teo much interested about a
female in her line of life to do her much good. He used
to call very often to see the family; but since the girl had
disappeared he never called but once, and that did not look
as if his motives were merely charitable.
Alderman Cows.); asked the applicant whether she had
not the means of going to her husband?
She replied in the negative: She had been seeking,
with two babes in her arms, for her daughter ever since
the 2d of June, and she had parted with all her clothes for
food. Her daughter had siumatua--notoply- the mother
and two infants here, Wit assisted the father and three
other children in ..ViwrlC'e, and it was dreadfal-sorol) the
Poor family of their only means.of life. She begged,,,for
the loie of God, that the Magistrate would do whit he
could for her, for she was broken-hearted, and wstilld won
be expdsed to starvation.

Maui:clan Cowart gave directions to some of the po-
lice upon the subject, and the poor Swiss woman received
relief for her present necessities from his humanity. lie
informed her that perhaps it might be of adontage to her
to leave her address at the Mansion-house.

She stated that she lodged at No. 2, Rose-court, Beer
lane, Lower Thames-street. -

Yesterday Thomas Jones was brought before Mr.
dtQgittlaikicTimaiils%ns;4ltliPtfitiltneraway • ull';,/ fm;
The complainant stated that he and his wife, to
whom he had been married for fifteen long }ears, lived in
a state of connubial bliss, until Mr. Jones stepped in and
turned all their happiness to misery. Jones had recently
taken lodgings opposite Thompson's house, and .as the
latter was necessarily absent from home a great deal, his
opposite neighbour took advantage of it, and by incessant
application—remaining at home, fixing himself constantly
at the window, . and letting no opportunity pass to make
some impression on Mrs. Thompson, he at length suc-
ceeded in the object he had in view. They tow became
very intimate, made appointments to meet each other out,
and when Thompson returned from his daily avocation, he
frequently found no oneat borne but his ehildren,their mother
neglecting them, and also her husband, for the sake of being
in the society of her chere amie. This conduct cause a great
deal of bickering between Thompson and his wife, who at
length eloped with Jones, and they lived together for six
weeks, at the expiration of which time she returned back
to her husband ; and he, quiet, good man, consented to
give her another trial, if she promised in future to be
faithful to her bed. She undertook every thing that was
required of her on that occasion ; but scarcely a week had
elapsed before she made another " bolt" with Jones.—
They were away together for three weeks on this last 00.
casino, and the complainant happening to meet them on
Monday, could not restrain his feelings, and upbraided
his wife with deserting him. She treated him with in-
dignation, and his choler being raised, he attempted to
drag her away from Jones, who, being a powerful man,
11 soon floored him; and when he was rising his "affec-
tionate" wife gave him a poke under the ear, and while
on the ground fell to with all her might kicking him in
the ribs. Thompson added, that he was confident his two
assailants would have half murdered him, but for the in-
, tarference of some persons who came up very opportunely
and saved him.

The defendants said that Thosnpson committed the fist
assault, although they could not deny there was an in-
timacy subsisting betswen them, which they attributed to
neglect on the part of the comphinant towards his wife.
The Magistrate held both the defendants to bail.

THE LATE DUKE DE BOURBON, PRINCE DE
Com:ie.—The final decision of the Judges was pronounced
in the united Gairts of Law, at Paris, under the Presi-
dency of M. SEOIIIII, on Tuesday, the 21st of June inst.,
upon the cause of the death of this amiable and lamented
Prince, and their judgment was unanimous that be died by
his own hand.

FIELD MARSHAL DIEBITSCH.-VARIOUS
CAUSES OF HIS DEATH.-Apoplexy; cholera; intoxica-
tion ; blew his brain& out ; a broken heart, caused by
defeat ; vexation on being superseded by P_ asxzwiTscii;
ditto, in consequence of the censure of Count ORLOFF on
the 'organization of his army; finally, assassinated by Ms-
dame la jeune COmtess MICHELINS BtutzvNsxa, the
CHARLOTTE CORDAY of Poland, who, in the disguise of a
Russian grenadier, had penetrated iota his tent. Had
DIERITSCH as many lives as a oat he could not have re-
sisted death in so many shapes.—The Marshal, when
flying, expressed a wish that his remains should be buried
in Silesia.

THE, NlGER.—Already application, we be-
lieve, has been made to Government by some of oar ad-
venturous merchants, for licence and protection, or for
such facilities as Government can afford them, of navi-
gating the Niger. We hear it is projected immediately to
dispatch steam-boats, and to try, if possible, to open a
trading communication with central Africa. It is a curi-
ous, and indeed a ,delightful speculation, to consider what
the moral effect of this may be, Europe owes to Africa a
large debt for wrongs done and sufferings caused; let us
Hope that ,she is now, about to make reparation, and that
commerce will introduce. civilization and knowiedge.—

MASSACRE AT NRWToWNBARitY.

INQUEST.

DUBLIN; JUNE 26.
The ease for the yeomanry closed on Thursday evening ; •
and on Friday morning, when-the inquiry- was resumed,
the examination of warmest; for the prosecution com-
menced. •
Moses Doyle, of Ballyphilip, was the first witness ex..
anained. He mentioned that he was a relation to Patrick
Doyle, whose cows were seized for the tithe claimed to ba -
due to Mr. M'Clintock. The owner of the cattle con::
eeived the claim for tithe was illegal: He told Mr. Ralph,
the agent for Mr. M'Clintock, that it would' be filter for
him to demand the tithe where it was due than from those
who did not owe it. Mr. Ralph admitted that the demand.
made upon them was beforehand. Mr. Feltus was present
it the conversation, and said he thought it was very unjust.
The witness proposed an arbitration, which was agreed to
by Feltus, who then went to look for the Rev. Mr.
AlTlintock. Mr. Feltus desired him to stop near the
yeomanry. When he was ten or fifteen yards down the
,trect he heard five or six shots. He ran, and a man named
James Doyle was shot within a yard of him. Witness was
.hot through his great coat, across the small of the back.
He saw no stones thrown ; but they might have been
thrown without his seeing them.
Mark Devereux saw Captain Graham in Newtown-
harry, and as he passed witness he said to the people.
Take care every policeman has his piece loaded with
hall cartridge, as will others who will soon be here, and
I'll cant the cattle in spite oldie people here." Witness
said to him, I don't think there's any here have any
"objections. I think they'll redress themselves by law."
Witness then detailed the conversation with Mr. Feltus,
and that gentleman's going to Mr. M'Clintock. Ile

next stated that when Captain Graham was Faking the
cattle nut of the pound, one of the parishioners asked him
to wait till Mr. Feltus would return. Graham said he
would cant them. Doyle, the son of the man who owned
the cows, offered, if Captain Graham would send away
the police and yeomanry, to drive the cattle into Newtown-
harry, and said that any one who' bid for them Leyontl
their :value should have them; but if they only went to
their :value he would buy them himself, and afterwards
have redress by law. Captain Graham, waving his
sword, said" Disperse ;" and then .making a thrust with
his sword at a "min, said " Stand back, you ruffian."
Capteiba.Kinki who Wait down a pace on the road, called
on Cptairi. Graham to*.read the. Riot Act.' " No," said
Graham, " but 111 read the "right Act." He then pulled
a piece of paper about two inches out of his pocks-t,
and put it 'back again. ' He then ordered the cattle to
be taken out of the pound, and they were given in custody
to the police. - The yeomanry .marched after the police,
and the people rushed after them. The yeoman pushed
the people with their bayonets, and witness thought hurled -
some'of them, but not to injure their lives. Every man
that was struck with a bayonet got in a passion : one or
two stones were then thrown, and the people were tu,h-
ing through amongst the yeomanry, when more stones
were thrown at the yeomanry. Witness then saw Captain
Graham stoop his head towards the pummel of his saddle,
and say " fire." A shot. was let off. He then heard
some of the commanders say, " Fall into your ranks."
Then five or six shots were fired, and then a general dis-
charge. Witness then stated that he hid behiud a ditch,
and rolled himself along a field, until_ he got into a wood.
To the best of his belief the first shot tame from Captain
Graham's corps; it came either from the police or the
yeomanry ; he positively could swear that it did not come
from the people.

The cross-examination of this witness was postponed to
the next day.

(From the Dublin Morning Register.)
SIITH DAY-.SATURDAY.
The proceedings were resumed this morning at the
usual hour, and Mark Devereuz was produced for cross-
satamination.

Eximioed by Mr. ROnistsoN-At the time I went to
the pound there were sixty or seventy about it, and more
in other places, up and down the road ; I think, from the
town to the pound, going backwards and forwards on the
road, there were, between men, women, and children,
about four hundred persons; I was standing at a gate
fifteen or twenty perches from the pound, when Captain
Graham said to the people, "beware, the police have bad
cartridges in their pieces," &c. ; the people were all quiet
at the time: there was no shouting that I heard; Captain
King was at the pound when I went down to it, and a
man with a white surtout, pockmarked, with a sandy
complexion, carrying a case of pistols ; he looked like a
waiting man or servant, and 1 believe he is one Byrne,
from Enniscorthy ; the foremost of the men of the veo-
manry coming up after Captain Graham were the 1%few-
t,......4...,......, .. ~...-......... - a.-- .......... .."...11 , ..v VGA twit
Ott this time was making any noise about the pound, _as I
could see, except a few boys, of eight, or ten, or twelve
years old, among themselves ; the principal part of the
yeomanry who punched the people with their bayonets
when they were turning, were the Newtownisarry corps ;
some of the people were not rushing on, but were turning
regularly, anti they also were punched ; the cattle and
police, had got- twelve perches from the pound when I
heard Captain Graham say '' fire;" there were some of
his corps and about twenty people between me and him
on the straight line, and I-did not hear him say anything
more; I heard no one else speak till after two shots were
fired, and then a voice said—" Fall into your ranks ;"
from the places I went to, and the stops I made, I think
the firing lasted in all about five minutes.
By the Jurors—They fired on both the Slaney and wood
side, and up.the road, and I think every man did his utmost
to kill' all he shot at ; but if they were to hit all they
tried, three hundred people or more would be killed.
John Curran, a slatennaker, of Glasslacken, sworn, and
examined by Mr. CosreLLoe—Hedeticribed what occurred
at the pound, and continued by saying, I saw the yeoman
stabbing with their bayonets at the people ; the people made
answer, and said they had as good toleration on the road
as they had ; I saw the people at that time taking up
stones; I saw Capt. Graham at the moment stoop down to
the veonaen, and eive them orders to fire; instantly I heard
a shat, and two more quickly after; I staid no longer on the
road; in the course of teat day I afterwards sawa great num..
her of dead, dying, and wounded persons; I saw one woman
lying in the ditch on her back just then wounded ; sine
asked me to raise her up, and I put my hands under her
and lifted her into the field. "Oh !" says I, "there's
nothing the matter with you but your finger shot 0ff."._...
She said she was wounded in the belly, and I cried out,
" Murder ! is there nobody to come and stop the woman's
blood?" I was at the funeral since. She was the wife
of Johns Mulroney, I can't say who fired the first shot,
but they came from in or about where Captain Graham
was at the time.

Examined by Mr. Eounrsox—l can't say there were
more than twenty stones thrown from the people at the
yeomanry, at the time Capt. Graham gave the orders to
tire, but I don't say there were so many; I didn't see the
veoManry or the reline struck by any of them, nor knocked
down by them I_ I saw no disposition in any one to rescue
the cattle that day.
The Court was adjourned at an earlier hour than usual
to-day, for the convenience of persons engaged in it,
whose residences are at a distance from Newtownbarry.—
The Coroner will resume his sittings at half-past ten on
Monday morning.

In Brody, where no precautionary measures
had been adopted, the ravages of the cholera appear to
have been most fearful. Out ef 'a population of 22,000
soul 4,639 individuals were attacked during the course
of the first month (from May 5 till June 7), 2,093 died
and 1,767 recovered. It is, however, to be observed that
the greater part of this population are in a state of abject
poverty, and that frequently several families are the tenants
