CLERKENWELL.

Charles Corbey, the young man wbo stands
charged with having attempted to murder Mary Ann
Noble by cutting her throat with a razor, was again
placed at the bar on remand for further examination,
when the court was crowded, and considerable interest
was evinced. _

The prisoner appeared melancholy and perturbed
in his mind. He stood at the bar, stared wildly about
him, and said nothing.
Sergeant White, 9 G division, produced a certifi-
cate from the surgeon who attended the injured young
woman, which pronounced her not to be in immediate
danger; but she was quite unable to attend to give
her evidence against the prisoner.
He was again remanded for further examination,
and was conveyed to the House of Detention in the

police van.
John Boardman, an elderly man, a master shoe-
maker, residing at No. 15, Trinity-street, Islington,
was placed at the bar charged with having violated
Mary Ann Southey, a girl eleven years of age. Ile
was fully committed for trial.

THE CONDEMNED PRISONERS
IN HORSEMONGEWLANE GAOL.
It being suspected by the authorities of Horse-
monger-lane gaol that Maria Manning might do
some violence to herself on hearing her fate on
Wednesday evening, it was thought advisable to have
an extra woman in attendance upon her. Accord-
ingly Mrs. Randall, the woman searcher of the South-
wark police•station, was sent for that night to assist
the two other women in watching her. Mrs. Randall
attended upon her during the several lengthy exa-
minations at the police-court, and Mrs. Manning
seemed very much attached to her. As soon as she
was introduced to her in the cell, she seemed much
pleased, and conversed freely with her on several sub-
jects. The unfortunate woman:still asserts that she,is
innocent, and will not be executed, and that some,in-
fluential ladies will intercede for her in high quarters.
Yesterday she wrote two letters, and believes that the
contents will have the effect of saving her life. On
being told that he legal advisers had done all they
could for her, she stamped her foot on the floor, and
exclaimed in a violent manner—" Done all they could
Why, they have done nothing; they and everybody
else in the court decided upon hanging me before I was
tried." In alluding to her husband a few minutes after.
wards she said, " Ah, he is a vagabond. I never said
anything about him. He knows who murdered poor
O'Connor, and can tell all." She refuses all religious
consolation, and pays little attention to the Rev. Mr.
Rowe, the chaplain. She has been visited by a
charitable lady, who attempted to instil into her mind
the awful position in which she stood, and implored
upon her to offer up her prayers to her Maker ; but
she listened with a deaf ear, and as soon as the lady
had left the cell she entered into conversation with her
attendants as unconcernedly as if she was free from
crime. She eats heartily and sleeps well, but if any
of her attendants would converse with her all night
she would sit up and join them. During some allu-
sion to her attorney (Mr. Solomon) and the counsel
who defended her she became much excited, and,
clinching her fists, exclaimed, " Oh, if I only had
them here I'd serve them out. They might have
acquitted me if they had done their duty." She,
however, seems very confident that she will be set at
liberty, and has no idea that the sentence of the law
will be carried into effect. Her unfortunate husband
is quite dejected. He is completely emaciated, and
unable to eat anything. Yesterday morning he desired
to have an interview with his attorney, Mr. Binns, as
he had some important communication to make to
him. He particularly requested that a special order
should be obtained for him, and at his desire one was
got and forwarded to Mr. Binns, who will attend at
the gaol this morning.

STRANGE DISCOVERY.—Three days ago, as some
men were digging out some foundations in tee riie de
Vincennes, at Belleville, they discovered a human body
in a perfect state of preservation. The teeth were all
perfect, as well as the hair OR the head, and the dress,
which was an uniform, sufficiently preserved to show
that the body was that of an Austrian officer. The
commissary of police went to the spot, and, from inquiry
from some old men residing near the spot, he ascertained
that in 1814, some days atter the surrender of Paris, IL
young officer of the allied troops, when passing by that
spot, was attacked by some Frenchmen, who killed hint
by a blow of a hammer on the head, and buried him
on the spot where he fell. It was found on examination
that the skull had been broken in, as if by some flat
weapon. The age of the person appeared to be about
23 or 24 years. The most surprising part of the affair
is that after a period of 35 years the body should have
remained in such a state of preservation. It was re-
interred in the cemetery of Belleville.
WEYMOUTH AND ROYALTY.—We have received
information from an influential quarter that it is the inten-
tion of her Majesty to purchase forthwith the Gloucester
Lodge,: formerly the favourite residence of her royal
grandfather, with a view of spending a portion of each
