LAMBETH.

Yesterday having been appointed for the final ex-
amination of Mrs. Linfield and others charged with
causing the death of Eliza Wilson, the court, as on
former occasions when the same parties where exami-
ned, was much thronged by persons anxious to hear
the proceedings and obtain a sight of the prisoners.
Their curiosity and anxiety were doomed to disap-
pointment, for when the case was called, a message
was delivered to Mr. Norton, the presiding magistrate,
to the efE2ot, that the prisoner Dryden still remained
so ill that it was not deemed safe to have her removed
from liorsemonger lane gaol to the court, and the
case was further adjourned until Thursday next.
Mr. NOUTON directed that the prisoners should be
made acquainted with the further remand, and also
told that if any of them had anything to state lie was
ready to hear them. The Magistrate's message was
delivered to the prisoners, and in a few minutes Mrs.
Linfield and her son (as she called him) William
appeared at the bar.
_ _ _ _

r.ddressing the magistrate, beg-
ged to know the precise nature of the charge against
?

Mr. NORTON replied, that the whole of the evidence
was not as yet before him, but under the impression
that it was not of so serious a character as the other
prisoners, he had consented on the last examination
to take bail for his appearance.
Mrs. Linfield admitted that the charge against her
was one of a very serious character, and therefore it
was essential that her son should be at large, in order
that a counsel might be engaged to defend her upon
her trial.

Mr. NORTON repated that he had offered to Jibe
rate the young man at the former examination upon
his giving such bail as he thought sufficient to insure
his attendance.

Mrs. Linfield said that her son was subject to fits,
and she was herself of rather an eccentric character,
so that they never associated themselves with their
neighbours, and from this circumstance they were
considered proud, and a strong prejudice, she had no
doubt, existed against them, and to this fact she attri-
buted her son's inability to find bail. For some years,
she said, she had herself laboured under considerable
bodily suffering under the care of the doctor, and she
might say, bed-ridden, while her son kept the shop,
and merely sent up stairs to her such patients as made
application for her assistance.

Mr. NORTON remarked that he had no wish what-
ever of depriving her of the means of procuring the
assistance of counsel on her trial, and, under the
circumstances, he had no objection to admit the
young man to go at large upon his entering into his
own recognizance of 501. to appear there on Thurs-
day next.
Mrs. Lintleld said the stock in the shop was worth
at least 1001., and her son, who blubbered like a child
while at the bar, having consented to enter into the
required sureties, was liberated.

THE RIGHT TO THE BED AND SOIL OF
THE RIVER TH..4111.ES DISPUTED.

Samuel Scales, a firsherrnan, living at
Bern-
fleet, at Rochford, was summoned on Saturday last
before William Gurdon, Esq., the judge of the Essex
County Court, by Mr. Henry Wood, the owner of
Lamb or Canway Island, in an action of tort, which
charged the defendant with having unlawfully re-
moved, taken, and carried away divers quantities of
cockle-shells, shingle, and other tidal deposit, lying'or
being, or found on the sea walls or sea shores adjoin-
ing to and forming part of a farm, land, and premises
of the plaintiff, called Le Bick, in Canway Island,
whereby the plaintiff had sustained damage to the
amount of 11. Mr. Gregson, of Rochford, attended
as attorney for Mr. Wood. Mr. Martin, from the
office of the City Solicitor, attended, and stated that
the City Solicitor had been directed by the Lord
Mayor, as conservator of the river Thames, to attend
on the part of the defendant, and to deny the right of
Mr. Wood to the ground and soil from which the
shells were taken. He also called the attention of
the judge to the 58th section of the Act for establish-
ing courts for the recovery of small debts, which
provided that the Court should not have cogni-
zance of any action " in which the title to any
corporate or incorporate hereditaments" shall be
in question. The Judge said that he doubted
very much the right of the Corporation to appear
in this case, the question being between a person who
claimed the land as owner and a wrongdoer ; and as
regarded the question of his jurisdiction, he considered
that he had a right to hear evidence as to title, but not
to decide upon it; an 1 that it appeared to him that
the City were unnecessarily interfering on behalf of
persons who were not acting honestly in removing
the shells. Mr. Martin stated he claimed to tender
himself as a witness for the defendant. In this case
it was considered that the defendant was only exer-
cising his lawful right, which the Corporation felt it
to he their duty, as the body who had the regulation
of fishermen, to protect and defend. So far from the
Corporation thinking the defendant to be dishonest,
they considered that he had been oppressed by persons
who claimed an interest in that which they had not
the slightest claim to, and the Corporation would not
for a moment interfere on behalf of any person who
had been guilty of any unlawful act. lie was pre-
pared with evidence as to the title and claim
of the Corporation to the soil and bed of the river,
and several of the assistant water-bailiff-, and
witnesses of great age, were also in attendance,
who could prove that for fifty years fishermen had
taken shells and exercised the right of fishing on the
shore claimed by Mr. Wool, without the slightest
interruption from any person. The judge stated that
he would proceed to hear the evidence, and accord-
ingly directed Scales to be sworn. In answer to
questions from the Judge, he admitted having taken
the shells without the saLction of the City Water-

bailiff, and that he left off taking them when Mr.
Wood's bailiff claimed the shells as his master's pro-
perty. He said he claimed to take the shells as his
right, and that he had taken muscles and winkles
many times before. He considered that he had as
much right to take the shells as to take fish in the
river. The place in which he took these shells
was from 200 to 300 yards from the river wall in
Canway Island; the tide flowed and re-flowed over
the part of that shore, and seven feet water over it at
high water. Russell, Mr. Wood's bailiff, said the
shells were a protection to the river wall. Mr. Martin
referred to the great distance between the river wall
and the place from whence the shells were taken, and
the small quantity removed. The Judge said that
made no difference. The great bar, or shoal, off
Yarmouth, was a great protection to the town of Yar•
mouth, although situate a long distance from the
shore. After much discussion, the Judge determined
to adjourn the case to the next court, either party to
be at liberty to give further evidence as to the situa-
tion of the shells, and the plaintiff to support his right
to the locus in quo.

IRISH FRACAS at GREAT CROSBY.
On Wednesday evening, at about six o'clock, a
number of Irish labourers, amounting to about a
dozen or fifteen, assembled at one of the inns in the
village of Great Crosby, for the praiseworthy
purpose of "getting drunk and kicking up a
row." It appears that they had been employed by
a farmer in the vicinity to dig up some pota-
toes, and Paddy, with great forethought, per-
ceiving that the esculent was deteriorating very
fast, and must be got out of the ground as speedily
as possible, and that at the moment labour was rather
in demand, resolved to " strike" for higher wages.
A proposition to this effect being made to the farmer,
it was of course rejected, and Paddy, in a fit of des-
peration, had recourse to the old "dodge " of astonish-
ing the natives with his "sprig of shillelagh." Now,
the implement used for this purpose happened to be a
most formidable weapon, and being kindred in more re-
spects than one to that recently in vogue in Ireland
among the rebels, Paddy was not at a loss to know how
to wield it, and there was no danger of its becoming
like the sword of Sir Hudibras, which "for want of
fighting had grown rusty," so, with the pitchfork or
pike (the agricultural implement employed for dig-
ging potatoes), Paddy pitched into the inhabitants
without showing any quarter, and, as it turns out,
fully succeeded in his undertaking of making a forcible
impression on their weak nerves. In the village of
Great Crosby there are only two policemen stationed,
a sergeant and a constable, and the Irishmen having
multiplied in numbers to more than twenty, all well
armed, the chances were decidedly in favour of the
peace-breakers. The two policemen passed through
the village, and were immediately attacked by three
or four Irishmen with their forks, which they
plunged about almost in every direction, for, having
been turned out of the beer-hou-e in a state
of excitement, they were callous to the con-
sequences. Policeman 302 was knocked down,
and as soon as he recovered himself he ran away
to the! station-house, leaving his comrade, the
sergeant, on the ground also, and about to be
butchered with the pitchforks. Some women, fortu-
nately, closed round the poor fellow to save him, and
probably their screams, more than anything else,
frightened off the Irishmen. Sergeant L'ye, a very
muscular and powerful man, rose to his feet, having
received a wound of a pike under one of his eyes,
and several blows across his body, and urging
the male bystanders to his assistance, followed
the Irishmen up will the intention of appre-
hending inhabitants followed
le.nding the ringlvalc:=,•
up for a short distance, but, with ao unaccountable
cowardice for Englishmen, the moment the attack was
made they ran away, leaving the sergeant and one
man to receive the whole body of pitchforks. This
man struck heavily about him with a life-preserver,
and the sergeant, with his stafl, kept oil- the forks;
the civilian (a man of the name of \Vesthead) re-
ceived the end of one of the forks in his hand,
which stuck fast, and the officer struck the Irish-
man on the arm and broke it, causing the fork to
drop from his hand. One of the inhabitants, a
farmer, who stood by, gaping with his mouth
open, and without taking any interest or active
part, was nearly made to swallow a pitchfork ; he re-
ceived a bad wound from the prongs in the head.
The bravery of the sergeant is beyond commendation ;
he felled three or four of the Irishmen with ease, and
rendered them unable to use their weapons ; but the
numbers being so great, and coming to the assist-
ance of their fellow comrades, it was impossible to
apprehend any of them. At last, the Irishmen ima-
gining, as it is supposed, that assistance might be at
hand, moved off down the village, and the sergeant
and the man Westhead, covered with blood, made a
final attack to try and apprehend the ringleader,
en immensely powerful Irishman ; they laid hold
of him, after some difficulty, and the villagers
now closing up, thinking that the Irishmen Is ere running
away, they succeeded in scattering them, and the big
Irishman, after wrestling a little, knocked two or three
men down and ran away, closely pursued by the sergeant,
who at last succeeded in capturing him and making him
a prisoner in the lock-up. Altogether, such a disturb-
ance has not occurred in this part of the country for
some time; but as such rows may visit it again, it be-
hoves the authorities to make some preparviens, and if
they will have but two eonstablrs stationed there, lot
them both be Englishmen with " courage longer than
their legs."—Liverpool Courier.

HORRIBLE MURDER IN LISBON.

Lisbon has been thrown into a state of much ex-
citement, not by any event of a political nature, but
by a murder accompanied with horrible circumstances.
About eight o'clock on the night of the 12th of
September, one of the city gatekeepers saw, between
the Fundaqao and Campo de Santa Clara, a large
bundle on the ground, near a wall. On examining it,
he found that the substance enveloped in the
cloth was a mass of dead flesh. Fearing to proceed
alone in his examination, he gave information to
the nearest guard-house. The parochial authorities
were summoned, and, accompanied by the man, they
proceeded to the spot where the bundle was lying.
.fo their horror they found it contained the naked
trunk, all covered with stabs, of a woman's body,
merely the trunk, for the head, hands, and legs
had been cut off, and were not in the bundle.
The mutilated body was removed to the guard-
house, and the man who first discovered it
was detained in custody. Early the following
morning a policeman appeared, bringing with him
the legs and hands, which he and a comrade had dis-
covered the previous night in . the street of another
pariah. The head not having been found at seven
o'clock in the morning, a sort of inquest was held on
the body by the civil authorities, and some medical
men. Seven stabs from a broad dagger or knife
were found on the left breast over the heart, and
twelve on the right breast. The legs and
hands had been separated from the body with a
sharp instrument, and with considerable sur-
g7cal precision. But there was no clue for
Llentif3ing the body. A dense crowd of people
surrounded the guasd-house all day. Over 8,000 per-
sons were admitted to see the body, but no one could
recognise it. About three o'clock a young woman
pressed forward to flee the corpse. The Regedor of
the parish immediately recollected that he had a few
days previously summoned this young woman to
answer a charge made against her by her mother.
The charge was, that the daughter had stolen a
gold chain and three moidores. The daughter,
when summoned, denied the charge, and said that her
mother was not right in her head. The Regedor said
that he would send the mother, as she was unwell, to
the hospital, and the daughter to gaol. " To gaol!
my daughter, to gaol! That I —no I I declare she stole
nothing from she." The Regedor dismissed them, and
promised to the mother an order of admittance to the
hospital. On the following day the daughter went
to the Regedor, and told him that the mother being
now better, had determined on not going to the hos-
pital, and had sent her to thank him. The Regedor
thought n.o more of the circumstance until he saw
this young woman pressing forward to look at
the mutilated body. He asked her where was her
mother ? She left the house this morning. Where
is she gone ? I do not know. notwithstanding the
cool collected manner in which she answered these
questions, the Regedor strongly suspected her, and
sent her off to the magistrate's house, with a meseage
that she was suspected of being the person who com-
mitted the murder. After some questions put to her
by the magistrate, the police were sent with her to
examine her house. She sat down to blow the fire
while the search took place. Two knives covered
with blood, a hatchet and a strong needle, half a
foot long, were found. A little garden at the back
of the house was dug up, and every recess examined,
but nothing further was discovered until Maria Jose
arose from the place where she had been sitting.
It was remarked that the earth of the flew of
that spot had recently been disturbed. The po-
lice dug up the ground, and found deep down the
head of the murdered woman. The youeg woman,
seeing that further concealment was useless,
frankly declared that that was the head of her
mother, 'Matilda da Luz; that it was not she who had
committed the murder, but a man of her acpseint-
ance, and would not tell his name, even though they
did to her what he had done to her mother. It was
eight o'clsek on the morning of the 12:h that be
committed the deed; as soon as he entered the house
he stabbed the mother, and, she added with a smile,
" One blow finished her ; he cut off the head with the
hatchet thet had been found, and the legs and hands
with a rezor, and the two bloody knives." She
had not attempted to save her mother, because he had
threatened to kill her also if she interfered, and did
slightly cut her in the hand when she attempted to in-
terpose. This story she told without an appearance of
remorse or alarm, frequently smiling at the questions put
to her. She was subsequently sujected to a seven
hours examination. She did not vary in her story ;
but in spite of hercaution, said some things that will

greatly aid the authorities in searching for her accom-
plice. The object of the murder was to secure the
gold chain, some moidores, and other trifling property.
It was with great difficulty that the mob were pre-
vented from inflicting summary punishment on the
wretched but reckless prisoner as she was going to
prison. Even though she should be convicted of the
murder, Maria Jose can only be banished for life.
The law of this country exempts a woman from the
punishment of death.
