of " Accidental death," adding that there was no evi-
de'ace to show how the fire originated.

tunate victim was the illegitimate male
spaettiroant.edTihnetuhhistetrown, and has createdn asconsiderable sen-
child of Jane M'Laue, an abandoned creature,
l,appa-
rently, who for some tiros past had been cohabiting with
a man of the Ramo of Johnson, in some low lodging-
house in the vicinity of the town. The coroner's inquiry
closed last Friday night, and it appeared that the dead
body of the child, which was about nine months old, was
discovered in the soil of a closet attached to the Old Cross
Inn, and it seemed from the evidence that it had been
thrown there. The jury returned a verdict of " Wilful
Alurder" against the mother, and the magistrates sitting
Petty sessions also committed Johnson for trial, for
awing and abetting in the crime.
EFFECTS OF FRIGHT IN PARIS.--It is well known
that a large number of children born after the first
French Ravolution, in 1798, became insane; and it seems
probable that another illustration of visiting the sins of
the parents upon the children will follow the late dis-
turbances. Many cases of mental derangement have al-
ready occurred in the Faubourg du Temple and Menil-
montant, where the fighting, during the late insurrection,
was terrific. As early as the 27th of June, two women,
residing in the Corbeau, became deranged; and one who
inhabits the Rue Menilmontant, was on the 10th of July
conveyed to an asylum. These poor creatures are con-
stantly heard to utter cries of tear.and dread, they call
for assistance and beg they may not be killed.
