MOTTISTOS, ISLE 01' WIGHT, JAN. 20..—ITER MAJESTY'S
STEAMER SPHYNX. LATEST ACCOUNT. - The heavy
ground swell having subsided, attempts were this day made
to heave the ship out of her bed, but unsuccessfully. She
was about six feet in the sand at the bows, and nearly as
much in the clay and flatners at the stern. The hands on
board hove on the anchors, and two steamers attempted to
tow. She is so high that she is dry at low water; her funnel
is still standing, and all hands (iccluding the sixty ship-
wrights) are busily employed in getting her into a sea-going
state. Since three o'clock it has come on thick again, with
a light air from the S.E. All her guns, coals, &c., have been
thrown overboard. Four of the unfortunate men drowned
have been picked up, and there are hopes of obtaining the
other three bodies at low water this day. A quantity of
empty casks have been forwarded here from Portsmouth.

TEE SALFORD MURIER.—The examination of
Susannah Johnson, charged with poisoning her husband,
Thomas Henry Johnson, was brought to a close yesterday
afternoon. at Salford, the bench fully committing her fo
trial at the next assizes. The inquiry has occupied several
days during the last three weeks. It appears that the de-
ceased, who was a carter, was seized with sudden illness
whilst eating some food which had been prepared by his wife.
An inquest was held on the body, and the jury returned a
verdict that the deceased died from inflammation of the
bowels, but how caused there was no evidence to show. The
body was interred, and the subject had almost been forgotten,
when the police were made acquainted with such facts as to
warrant the apprehension of the prisoner, and the disinter-
ment of the body. At her examination. a female named
Hardman deposed that the prisoner purchased three penny-
worth of arsenic at her shop a day or two before the death
of the deceased. Mr. J. Leigh, surgeon, stated that in the
post mortem examination he observed a metallic deposit
which he believed to have been arsenic. The prisoner was
removed to Kirkdale gaol to await her trial at the ensuing
assizes.
THE BURGLARY AT LADY BARN.—The two men,
Holden and Wainwright, who had been remanded on suspi-
cion of being concerned in the burglary t Mr. Wood's house,
Lady Barn, on the night of the Bth inst.a, were again brought
un at the New Bailey on Monday, and Superintendent
Taylor having sta ch
ted to the Court that there was no further
evidence against them, they were disarged.—Manchester
Guardian.
The steam-ship, Sarah Sands, sailed for New Yor -
frem Liverpool yesterday, and had 25 passengers, 10,000 let-
ters, and 700 tons of cargo.
