LAMBETH-STREET.

A WOMAN CHARGED WITH MURDERING HER HUSBAND.
Mary Hyland, a wretched-looking woman, aged 62, was
charged with causing the death of Peter Hyland, her husband.
It appeared that the prisoner and her husband were much ad-
dicted to drink. About six o'clock on the previous evening,
while both were intoxicated, a quarrel took place between
them. The prisoner made a rush at her husband and forced
him off the steps of the door upon which he stood, and the
consequence was that he fell across a sort of landing, and his
head coming ou some steps which led to another apartment his
neck was broken and he instantly expired. When told that he
was dead, the prisoner, who was not sober at the time, said—
Thank God for it." _ _

The prisoner did not deny the charge. but said that her hus-
band had been in the habit of ill-using her, and had pinched
her very much to get some more money from her to drink be-
fore she pushed him. She was remanded till the result of the
Coroner's inquest should be known.

TRADE AND THE CORN-LAWS.--Without
trade England cannot exist as a nation; without employ-
ment the operative, the shopkeeper, the manufacturer,
the merchant, and the shipowner, would be involved in
one common ruin. The landowner would soon follow ;
and the fate of one would be the fate of aIL This period,
monopolists may say, has not yet arrived. I pray God
it never may; but it will not be the wisdom or honesty
of our Legislature which will prevent its coming, unless
indeed, legislation takes a course far different from that
which has hitherto been pursued. The recent proposi-
tions of her Majesty's Ministers for the Budget of this
year, and the honest and straightforward declarations of
Lord John Russell in favour of the principles of free
trade, assure me that under his guidance legislation may
take a new, a wise, and an invigorating course; and that
if at the coming elections the electors of England be only
true to themselves, our people may yet find employment,
and our commerce may be saved. This is no time for
the discussion of speculative or philosophical political
opinions. The operative is in want of employment, and
consequently, in want of bread. The questions for con-
sideration at this moment are, How are the people of
England to be fed and clothed ? How can the energies
of this great empire be restored to their proper channel?
How can comfort be introduced into the habitations of
the poor, and prosperity be restored to the trade and
commerce of the country ? I say, without hesitation,
by the destruction of monopoly, by the repeal of the
Corn-laws, by carrying out the principles of free trade.—
Mr. Philips's Address to the Electors of Manchester.
BOAR HUNT ON THE TAFF VALE RAILWAY.
—One day last week a number of pigs were sent down
from Merthyr for sale at Newbridge, when a scene of
extraordillary fun and excitement took place. When
the swinish multitude were about being handed to their
seats in the hog-box, instead of taking their seats quietly,
they made a sudden start, and cut away in all directions,
nearly upsetting many of the bystanders, and causing
no little confusion and merriment in the crowd, and
it was not until after a deal of trouble and many a
fruitless chase, that they were lodged in the place allotted
for them. One spirited porker, however, set all their
eftbrts at defiance, and with a squeak that drowned the
noise of the engine whistle, he started off, pursued by a
whole host, giving the holloa, and led them such a chase
backwards and forwards, giving many a deep double,
nd tricking his shouting followers, some of whom
tho net they had secured him by the tail, when they
fount.. that they had missed him, He kept up the game,
till at Ifairly tired out, he permitted himself to by
captured, and deposited among his companioni in Wm.
city.—Some. "set County Gazette.
