there were several discrepancies in her statements. Her evi-
dence had also been Oren with such coolness and clearness
as showed her to be experienced in such matters, as she
completely fixed the capital charge upon the prisoner, which
showed her malicious disposition. The charge, he was pre-
pared to contend, was altogelher concocted by the com-
plainant out of revenge for her being discharged. She had
previously tried all she could to induce his client to he inti-
mate with her, in order that she might make that charge.
The prisoner was in a most unfortunate position, he and the
complainant having been in the house alone, so that the
case depended entirely on whatever evidence she chose to
give, without any pr. bability of his being able to disprove it.
Caroline Ma, hews was then recalled by Mr. Clive, and in
answer to his questions, explained that she had made up her
mind on Sunday not to stay another night in the house; had
tier brother-in-law not come, she would then have gone over
to I:im In the evening. She certainly did agree, on the Sun-
dae, ;0 T.-ash the prisoner's stockings out on the Monday
morning, but she did that as a blind to deceive tl e
Mr CLIVE said there certainly were one or t-ivc —tars-
ordinary circumstances in the case which would require
inquiry, end for that purpose the prisoner must be re-
manded.

Mr. Todd applied for the pri-oner to be admitted to bail.
Mr. CLIVE inquired what way the prisoner's position in
life ?-31r. Todd said the prisoner was secretary to a public
company, at a salary of 2001. per annum.
Mr. 6.lvE said he would then take bail ; the prisoner in
200/, and two sureties in 1001. each, for the prisonet's ap-
pearance on Monday rext.
Mr. Todd and Mr. Henry Rumball, civil engineers, of
Seething-wells, Kingston-on-Thames, Surrey, entered into
the required sureties.

On the app,ication of Mr. Todd, the brother in-law of the
complainant, was called in and examined, in order to see if
his version of the interview he had with the prisoner would
differ from the complainant's, but he used the very words
she had.

Mr. Crag directed Inspector Morgan to summon the two
witnesses the complainant had told of the affair, and also to
have her examined by a medical man.

THE SUSPECTED MURDER AT

Sil ADWELL.
Wednesday the adjourned inquest on the body of Anne alias
Jane Sloman, who was found dead under such suspicious cir-
cumstances,on Tuesday,June 2d, at the house,No. 6, Labour-
in-Vain-street, Shadwell, was resumed at the Halt Moon,
Lower Shadwell.

It will be remembered that Gibbins, the man with whom
she cohabited, was at first charged with the murder, and
was examined at the Thames Police-court, and is still in
custody.

After several witnesses had been heard, the court was ad-
journed till seven o'clock, and was resumed about eight. The
principal facts have been already very fully stated.
The jury retired at a quarter past eleven o'clock, and after
an absence of nearly two hours, at five minutes to one o'clock
yesterday morning, returned an open verdict of—" Wilful
Murder against some person or persons unknown."
The interest excited was intense, and the verdict appeared
to give general satisfaction, leaving the inquiry still open as
regards the parties guilty.

THE LATE FATAL COLLISION
ON THE MERSEY.
(From the Liverpool Courier of Wednesday.) Yesterday the inquest on the thirteen persons buried in
Liscard Chapel-yard, who were killed by the late awful steam-
boat collision, was resumed at the Royal Hotel, Magazines,
before H. Churton, Esq., the Cheshire coroner.
Mr. Harden appeared for the captain of the Sea-NyroPll,
and Mr. Myers for her owners; Mr. Hassan and Mr. Duncan
appeared for the owners and captain of the Rambler.
Mr. Askew, Captain Sarsfield, Captain John Jones, and
other professional gentlemen, were present.
The evidence taken at the former inquest only related to
the identification of the bodies; on this occasion the follow-
ing witnesses were examined as to the facts of the collision:
George Hunter, chief mate, and Peter M'Farlane, second
mate, William Jones, seaman, and James M'Gregor, en-
gitmer, all of whom belong to the Rambler, and David Ko-
vanah, a passenger. Their depositions substantially agreed
with what they had previously stated before the borough
coroner, which we gave at great length in our last publics-
ticn. No new facts in elucidation of this terrible event were
elicited.

At a quarter to six o'clock the Court adjourned until this
day at ten o'clock, when Thomas Evans, captain of the
life-boat, it is expected, will give some important testi-
mony; and John Hughes, one of the life-boat crew, who
was on the shore, and saw the whole transaction, will ue
examined.
