mother called me into her room just as I was going to

be given to my father the next day. The next day, about
half-past six o'clock, I went into his room, and wished

Cross-examined by Mr. GREENWOOD -I first was
asked about this a month since. I have no written me-
morandum as to the work being done on that day.
Mr. Kearney—l was at work at Mr. Buzzard's on the
I Ith of March. I saw Evenden at the shop about ten
minutes past five. lie left about a qnarter to six. I
fix the day by an accident that occurred to some oil,
which was sent in upon the 4th, and I produce the in-
voice.
Cross-examined by Mr. G REENWOOD —As I went to the
shop I observed that it was seven minutes past five by
Aldgate church. The shop is in Old Jewry.
Mr.iGREENWOOD replied, and pointed:out that the evi-
dence of Mr. Attenborough must be credited, and, with
the exception of the statement of the stepson of the
prisoner Evenden, it was still possible for the pri-
soners to have been at Southampton on' the night of
the sth. _ _

Mr. Justice Wi',Liam summed up with great care,
and expressed his regret that so much had been said
about Payne, for there was nothing to implicate him in
the least degree with the robbery, and his evidence was
hardly of any importance, and had been corroborated in
every point.
The jury, after about twenty minutes, returned g ver-
dict of Not Guilty.
The court was crowded until the end of the case,
nearly nine o'clock, and loud approbation was ex-
pressed at the verdict, but immediately stopped by the
officers.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BOW-STREET.
CHARGE OF FORGERY.—A young man, named Francis
Burton, was brought before Mr. henry, charged with
committing a forgery under the following circum-
stances:—
Mr. Peacock, solicitor to the Post-office, conducted
the prosecution.
The prisoner came up from Stamford about a fortnight
back to seek employment as a clerk, and having taken
lodgings at a coffee-shop in Bishopsgate street, where
he ran up a score of 155., he gave the landlord; Mr.
Oldgate, a Post-office order, which he said he had just
received from his grandfather, who resided in the coun-
try, from whom he received 4L 10s. in change. He
then purchased a pair of shoes, and after they had drank
together he pretended to go out for the purpose of getting
a few biscuits, but never returned. On the following
day the order was presented at the General Post-office
for payment by the landlord, when he was informed that
the order was for 10s. only, and that he had been im-
posed upon.
Mr. William White, a clerk in the Money Order-office,
identified a letter of advice from the postmaster at Stam-
ford, addressed to the postmaster of London, to pay the
sum of 10s. to Francis Burton; it was dated July 6, and
copied into the money order-book, corresponding with
the date, but not in the amount, in consequence of which
a letter was fowarded to the postmaster at Stamford, to
account for the difference.
Constable Peake proved that he traced the prisoner
from Stamford to Peterborough post-office, where he
asked for a letter addressed to Mr. Pindar, but received
none ; and after asking him some questions, he admitted
having given a money order at the coffee-shop in
Bishopsgate-street which he had received from his grand-
father at Stamford, and that it was then in the same
state he had received it. He then denied the charge;
and on asking him what became of the envelope
in which he received the letter containing the
order from the country, he replied it was in the posses-
sion of Miss Burton, his aunt, at the Albion Hotel, in
Cockspur-street. Witness, on arriving in town, went to
the hotel, and received from Miss Burton, the envelope
produced, which had been turned inside out, and used
to enclose a letter addressed her by the prisoner.
The prisoner declined saying anything in his defence,
and he was ordered to be remanded for a few days.
WESTMINSTER.
DETERMINED ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE AND CHILD
MURDER.—Elizabeth Jopping, a middle-aged woman,
was charged with attempting to drown herself and child.
The poor woman, whose face appeared much swollen
and bruised, had a fine infant in her arms, and a little
girl about seven years of age by her side.
At about four o'clock yesterday morning, a policeman
observing the defendant pass through King-street, West-
minster, apparently in a very agitated state, he deter-
mined to follow her. Defendant after endeavouring to
get into two wharfs in Abingdon-street, quickened her
pace, and suddenly entering the Horseferry-wharf,
threw herself and child into the Thames. The constable
immediately followed, and after the poor woman and
infant had been under the water, succeeded in catching
hold of her and dragging her out with the child in her
arms. Both were taken to St. Margaret's workhouse,
where every attention was paid to them, and they shortly
recovered. The policeman was of opinion that the de-
fendant had been drinking at the time she committed
the act.
Defendant said that the continual cruelty of her hus-
band had driven her to commit the offence. He had so
beaten her about the head on that morning that she
hardly knew what she was about.
The sister of defendant stood up in the witness box,
and said that the husband, who is a bargeman, was as
good a husband as ever lived, when sober, but when
drunk, a perfect madman.
Mr. BURRELL asked whether he often got drunk ?
The sister said, not very often. Had the policeman who
saw him at the time he was drunk that morning, taken
him for ill-treating her, she, in all probability, would not
have attempted to destroy herself.
Mr. BURRELL inquired whether the policeman saw
the husband strike his wife P—A female in the court
said she witnessed the whole of the transaction, and the
policeman both saw the husband knock his wife's head
against the wall, and then kick her.
Mr. BURRELL observed, that he grossly neglected his
duty then, and inquiries should be made into the matter.
, On the sister undertaking the care of the defendant,
and the latter promising never again to attempt such an
act, she was discharged.

THE QUEEN AGAINST SMITH AND EVENDEN.

This was an indictment against the prisoners, W.
Smith and John Evenden, for a burglary in the dwelling-
house of Mrs. Charlotte Wright and Mr. Robert Wright,
at Itchen Ferry, near Southampton, in the month of
March last, under somewhat singular circumstances.
The trial lasted seven hours, and excited great interest.
Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Massey prosecuted; Mr.
Missing appeared for the prisoner Smith, and Mr. Slade
for Evenden.

Mr. Robert Wright and his mother lived at lichen
Ferry, and on Friday, the sth of March last, retired to
rest as usual. During the night a slight noise was heard,
but it did not then excite any suspicion. In the morn-
ing, however, it was discovered that the dining and
drawing-rooms and library were in great confusion, and
boxes and writing-desks had been ransacked. On a
further search, it was found that a large quantity of
plate had been taken, and 451. in bank-notes, and that
the thieves had entered through the window of the
water-closet. A quantity of lucifer matches were still
upon the floor and the ledge of the window. Some
plate was also found packed up in baskets ready for re-
move'. Up to the 29th of May all inquiries were fruit-
less, but on that day Mr. Payne, a glazier, who had
formerly worked for Mr. Wright, was accidentally
passing the shop of Mr. Attenborough, a pawnbroker,
in Fleet-street, and recognised in the window a portion
of the plate, which had that day for the first time been
exposed for sale. This witness stated that he was in the
habit of examining all silversmiths' shops when he had
time, as he fancied the "King's pattern," and bought
plate of that pattern whenever he could do so at a
moderate price, for the use of a lodging-house that he
kept in Albany-street, and that he had carried on this
search for, several years. It further appeared that from
the description Mr. Attenborough gave of the persons
who pawned the plate, the witness Payne felt convinced
they were the prisoners, whom he had known some time
before at Southampton, and they were subsequently
taken into custody. Upon searching Smith's house a
carpet bag was found, which Attenborough said he
believed was the very bag in which the plate was brought
to his shop, and on this being produced at the examina-
tion of the prisoners before the Lord Mayor, Smith
fainted, and stated afterwards that is was because of the

bag.
Mr. Attenborough was then examined, and in the
most positive manner swore to the prisoners, and that
they brought the plate to his shop about five o'clock on
the 11th of March. He detailed minutely all that
passed on the occasion, and gave the whole of his
evidence in a remarkably clear and acute manner. To
Evenden he spoke even more positively than Smith,
and produced the book in which Evenden had entered
his name as Richard Wright. He also stated that the
loan was for a month, but that the plate was not
exhibited for sale until a few hours before Payne saw it.
Mr. MISSING then addressed the jury for the prisoner
Smith, and after commenting upon the extreme danger
of relying upon the recollection of any single individual
when borne out by no corroborative circumstances, called
the following witnesses to prove that Smith could not
'have been at ,Southampton on the night of the sth of
March.
Mr. Crace examined by Mr. MISSING—I am a deco-
rator. Smith was in my employ when he was appre-
hended. On the sth and 6th of March he was employed
at the House of Lords. In that week I was there every
day, and I should have missed him if he had not been
there. He was not reported as absent. He is a steady
man, and I would trust him anywhere. I employed him
at the Duke of Devonshire's after the charge was made,
having the fullest confidence in his innocence.
Cross-examined by Mr. GREENWOOD—I had thirty or
forty men at the House of Lords. The hours of work
were from six until half-past five.
Mr. Dick, examined by Mr. MISSING—I am the fore-
man of the works, under the last witness, at the House
of Lords. Smith was there on that day, and was there
at six on the 6th of March. He was absent two hours
during the week, but not on that day. On the 11th his
time was marked full. He is a very excellent workman,
and would have been more likely to be missed than any
one else.

Cross-examined by Mr. GREENWOOD-My business
was to superintend the workmen. I did not work my-
self. The time is made up daily. I produce the weekly
tables made up on the Saturday, from daily memoranda
made by me.
By the JUDGE-ft is my duty to check the men's
work, and their pay depends upon the time they work.
As stated in my report, I generally go down before the
men and leave afterwards.

George Glover—l am in the employ of Mr. Crace as
an heraldic decorator. Smith worked with Inc at the
House of Lords. Smith was there on the sth, and also
on the 11th, the full time. Ile worked from my
drawings.
Cross-examined by Mr. MAsSEY—There were from
six or seven to eighteen or nineteen there. I keep no
memoranda as to the men being absent.
By the JUDGE—Smith was more useful to me than the
others.
Mr. SLADE also addressed the jury on behalf of the
prisoner Evenden, and suggested that in truth Payne
must have known more about the robbery than any one
else, he having admitted, on cross-examination, that he
knew the premises well, and how the water-closet window
opened and abut, and that he had led Mr. Attenborough

Great excitement was caused on the sth in the
peaceable town of Ai. A man, named Victor Moreau,
had long entertained a violent hatred against his brother
Gustave, but it was hoped that his hatred had died away
during the period he had served in the army. On his

two pistols, powder, and shot with the remainder of a
sum of money which his brother had given him, most of
which he had spent in debauchery. He then went to Ai,
it is believed, with the firm intention of killing his
brother. Luckily ho did not find him at home. He
then went to several cafés, and drank a great many
glasses of liquor, after which he proceeded to the house
of an uncle and aunt. He burst into the room, and,
without any salutation, said he was hungry. His aunt
invited him to eat, and whilst doing so, an old master of
his, named Roger, came in, and knowing the violent dis-
position in which he was, tried to calm him. " What do
you want here ? " cried the man; "begone " and then
added, must put an end to this; I must kill you !"
At the same moment he took a pistol, and fired it
at his uncle and aunt, but whet

Fortunately he was not injured, and an alarm being
given, two gendarmes and several individuals appeared,
and all the issues from the house were guarded. " Sur-
render!" cried one of the gendarmes. "No!" said the
man, "and if you advance you are dead!" As he spoke
he presented the pistol, which he had re-loaded. "Fire,
then," said the gendarme, " but take notice," he added,
as he drew his sword, " that if you miss me I will run
you through the body !" and turning to the people, he
courageously said, " Comrades, if you see me fall, never
mind, but seize the man, to prevent him doing more
mischief." The man immediately snapped the trigger of
a pistol, but it flashed in the pan. In the twinkling of
an eye he presented another pistol, but he checked him-
self, and said, "Why should I fire on you? I bear you
no malice, and you only do your duty. Look there!"
and he discharged the pistol at the ceiling. The gen-
darme then rushed in and secured him. Besides
powder and shot, a poniard was found in his possession.
Such was the cold brutality of the wretch, that, after
firing at his uncle and aunt and M. Roger, he filled his
pipe with tobacco, and tranquilly smoked it.—Galignani.
NAVIGATION LAWS.—The Committee appointed
to inquire into the above laws, were to have assembled
for the last time on Thursday, to hear the evidence of Mr
Aylwin in favour of the maintenance of these laws; but,
after waiting until two o'clock, and there being only Sir
Howard Douglas present, they could not form a quorum,
and itccordingly proceedings terminated for this session.
THE SCHOOL or DESIGN.—The report of the
Committee on the School of Design, to which we di-
rected attention in a recent number, had not greatly
pleased the Council. If we understand rightly, another
Committee has been appointed by them to confer with
the Board of Trade , and Mr. Hamilton, until now an
active member of the Council, has resigned.—The
