SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A POLICEMAN.
Mr. W. Baker, the coroner, yesterday resumed
this inquiry at the Royal Mason, Poplar. The de-
ceased met his death through being drowned in an
attempt to get on board the Vesper, Gravesend
steamer, at Blackwall Pier, at about eight o'clock on
the evening of Monday, the 16th instant, and which,
it was alleged, was owing to the improper conduct of
police-constable Feitham, belonging to the company,
stationed on the pier, in laying hold of the tail of the
coat of the deceased at the time he was going on
board. The deceased, who was a waiter at the
Terrace-pier Hotel, Gravesend, had been turned off
the boat, by the direction of the captain, owing to
his being intoxicated and insulting the passengers,
and the boat being about to leave the pier, on her
voyage to Gravesend, the deceased expressed his
determination of again getting on board, and ran to
the stern of the vessel for that purpose, when the
accident occurred. Mr. Heritage, a solicitor, ap-
peared on behalf of the friends of the deceased, and
Mr. Winkworth, on the part of the company, to
watch the proceedings. The only additional evi-
dence that was adduced was that of John Gorstin,-of
Blackwell, butcher, who deposed to witnessing the
whole transaction, an& he did not attach any real
blame to the policeman, who appeared to him to be
speaking quietly to the deceased, and endeavouring
to get him away. After he was turned off the host a
number of persons on the pier called to the deceased
"Why don'tyou j ump on board?" The deceased theta n,_,_

to the stern of the ;Teasel, a distance of about twenty
feet, the policeman after him, and jumped towards
the boat, his hands resting on the rails, his legs and
body hanging down by the side of the vessel. The
policeman laid hold of his coat to save him, but let
go, and the deceased fell into the water and was
drowned. The deceased did not appear to have a firm
hold of the rail, no part of his body being over it.
One witness, at the former inquiry, deposed that the
heaviest part of the body of the deceased was over the
rail. By the Coroner—The deceased's hands ap-
peared to yield by the pulling of his coat by the
policeman. Scarcely a minute occurred throughout.
the legs of the deceased were hanging down by the
side of the vessel, and he appeared to be quite tipsy.
The policeman seemed to lay hold of the deceased to
prevent his getting on board, but no effort on his
part to save him could have been available, as the
boat was near six feet from the dummy. The, de-
ceased might possibly have been saved if the police-
man had not laid hold of him. Thomas Grudge, a
waterman at the pier, gave similar testimony. The
Coroner then read over the whole of the evidence,
remarking on the whole case, which he was of opinion
was attributable entirely to accident in the police
constable in endeavouring to save the life of the de-
ceased. Several of the jury expressed themselves
wholly dissatisfied with the contradictory nature of
the evidence and the necessity for further inquiry,
and after a lengthened discussion the inquiry was
ultimately adjourned to Monday next.

MELXNCIIOLY OCCURRENCE.—At a late hour last
evening, we received intelligence of the death of Mr.
Joseph Marshall, of the firm of Thompson and Marshall,
solicitors, of this town, while bathing at Hornsea. From
the particulars which we were able to obtain, it appears
that the deceased gentleman left Hull yesterday morning,
with his wife and three children, to spend a few day in
Hornsea. On their arrival the whole family went down
to the sea shore, and Mr. and Mrs. Marshall bathed in
separate machines. When Mr. Marshall had been in
the water about a quarter of an hour, being a consider-
,able distance out, he appeared to be labouring under the
cramp, and was evidently powerless. By this time
Mrs. Marshall hid come out of the water. There were
great number, of persons on the beach, amongst wham
were Mr. Thomas Wing, the driver of the Hornsea mail,
'who, seeing Mr. Marshall was in danger, in the most
'Courageous manner went to his assistance. On reaching
him he found Mr. Marshall floating on the water, to all
appearance dead. After a considerable struggle, Mr.
Wing brought him within a short distance of the shore,
but, finding himself sinking, was obliged to let the body
go. Several of the bystanders then waded and 'got Mr.
.Wing out. After a delay of abolit twenty minutes,
.during which time Mr. Marshall's body was carried out
'some distance by the tide (though for the whole time
visible), a boat was launched, and the body brought to
the shore, where everything was done to restore anima-
tion, but without effect, life being quite extinct. Mr.
Marshall was a young man of much promise, and was
mach respected by the legal profession of this town.—
Hull Packet.

THE POLISH EXECUTIONS.—The Swabian Mercury
has the following from Lemberg. dated the 9th:—" The
people continue to make demonstrat ons of sympathy
over the graves of the executed Poles, and a so!emn ser-
vice on their behalf has just been performed in the
Church of St. Bernard. Last evenit,g the crowd was
evidently increasing so much, and showed such a dispo-
sition to riot, that the poliece,litc.e.ti

evening torches were lighted. and illuminated transpa-
rencies prepared ; flags were displayed. and patriotic
songs were sung. A second summons to disperse was
read, but being equally ineffective es the first, it became
necessary to employ more rigorous measures. Stones
were thrown at the troops, upon which a aetatchment of
Hussars and a company of Infantry made a charge,
cleared the place, and took twenty prisoners. Tran-
quillity was afterwards preserved by patrols."
MELANCHOLY ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE BY A HIGHLY
RESPECTABLE MARRIED FEMALE.—Yesterday morning,
between the hours of nine and ten, the neighbourhood
of Hungerford-market was thrown into a state of great
alarm and excitement, in consequence of a most despe-
rate attempt at suicide by Mrs. Susannah Jackson, aged
twenty-six, a highly respectable female. It appears
that at that hour the unfortunate creature, having
alighted from a Paddington omnibus,
the water side, and was observed to wander

place in a somewhat singular manner,

hastened on the pier, and, clasping her hands, she ex-
claimed, "Oh mercy, mercy, Heaven protect my
children !" and then plunged into the river. The oc-•
aurrenee was particularly noticed by the beadle, who
raised an instant alarm, and, after some difficulty, two
waterman succeeded in saving her from a watery grave.
She had gone a considerable distance, being carried with-
the tide. The poor creature was then taken in an ex-
hausted state to the Charing-cross Hospital, and placed
under the care of Mr. Young, the house-surgeon, and.
remains in a very precarious state. Mrs. Jackson resides.
in Great Portland-street.

HEALTH OF T. S. DITISCOMIIE, ESQ., M.P.—This
llon. Gentleman left town on Saturday, for his father's
residence in Yorkshire. In a letter since received in
town, Mr. Duncombe states, " Since I came here I
lsreathe easier, but lam still 'Very weal:." It is hoped
that a short time will so far restore the Hon. Gentleman
as to enable him to bear the fatigue of a removal to the
genial climate of Montpelier or Nice, and thus prepare
him for the resumption of his Parliamentary duties on
tliq opening of the session.
