TUTS DAY.

' Mr: Jeffrey, surgeon, in Piccadilly, deposed, that he opened
the body of the deceased yesterday morning, It was in a complete
state of putrefaction, much swollen and black, disfigured and
bruised about the face; in the womb he observed a male child
apparently or six months; he was of opinion the contusions
upon the face was occasioned by external violence committed
on her before death; the lungs were gorged with black blood,
which indicated the violence committed upon her before death.
lie had no doubt but that she died from sullbeation.
Juror.---Ilave you been in the habit of seeing drowned per,
sons ? I have seen many, and her appearance resembles those of
others found drowned. I saw the deceased after the body was
taken up, and it had some of those marks upon it then.
Witness._The contusions and diacolourations which I ob-
served most certainly were occasioned by ♦iolence previously
to death ; they were in fact contused blood, congealed between
the flesh and skin, which could not have been effected after life
was extinguished, or by friction ia the water.
Mr. Cupbold, surgeon, Golden-square, confirmed the above
evidence.

1111.iihomas liastell, surgeon for Chelsea parish, stated that
he re-opened the body, and found it in the state described by
the other gentlemen.
The verdict had not been given at twelve, when our Reporter
left the room.

On Thursday night, about eleven o'clock, as
one of the Clapton stages was proceeding along►
the Hackney-road, loaded with passengers, inside
and out, a ruffian jut nped up behind and snatched
a valuable shawl from a lady, who was seated by

111J-ItGLARY.—On Wednesday night some dar-
ing burglars entered the house or premises of Mr.
lossop, wax-chandler, Duke-street, St. James's,
in a very singular manner. The burglars had brokelt
the lock of the► door of the house adjoining Mr.
Glossop's, which is unoccupied, and then went up
stairs, and bursting through the roof, and break-
ing the trap-door of Mr. G.'s house, they got in,
and had packed up in the shop nearly one hun-
dred pounds worth of chandlery ; but they were
unable to remove it, being disturbed by some
pe►rsons, who, finding the locking of the next
house broken, went in, and instantly Mr. Glos.
sop's shop-door opened, and 3 men rushed out, but
the watchman was unable to stop them. On ex-
au►ining the shop, a complete burglariousapparatos
was found ; every lock in the house was broken
open, and 2s. &L. in money, which had been it►
the till, was gone. Au inquiry into the conduct
of the watchman took place at Marlborough-
street on `Thursday, and he was suspended trout

carried into execution. The unhappy woman
(convicted of having murdered her husband) was
brought from the gaol about three o'clock, in a
cart, seated ott a chair covered with black cloth.
She was decently dressed in black, and ccemed
much composed, and even prepared to meet her
awful fate. On arriving at the place of execu-
tion, she ascended the scaffold (which was erect-
ed a little way out of Berwick, where the roads

when the executioner, who had arrived from
Edinburgh ott the preceding evening, instantly
launched her into eternity. As an execution had
not taken place in Berwick for a very long periods
an immense concourse of people were attracti
from all quarters of its vicinity to witness the
pretent one.—(Edinburgh Star.)
