MONDAY mortNriNer, SEPTEMBER 21, 1 A4d,

on Tuesday evening last, went to see her husband, and
speak to hra rpm the subject. Upon seeing him the
defendant commenced abusine, him in the most unmea-
sured language, and charged him with having, in com-
pany with a respectable cow-keeper in the neighbour-
hood, taken her-from her own house to a house of ill-
fame in Westminster, when both of them treated her in
a brutal manner, and threatened to run her through
with a knife. Her statement, in so far as he, witness,
was concerned, was a gross fabrication, es he could
prove, if necessary, that on the night she had mentioned,
namely the Bth of May last, as that upon which the out-
rage had been'committed, he had a party at his house
to celebrate his birthday, and had not been away from
home for a single moment.
The defendant, who had frequently interrupted the
complainant, and it was difficult to keep quiet, replied
that his conduct to her had been scandalous, and that
he knew it.

A lodger in the house and a police-constable deposed
to the defendant being an habitual drunkard, and that
in the first instance she had accused other parties than
Mr. Powell and the cowkeeper of being her abductors
and the authors of the outrage upon her. -
The husband of the defendant expressed it to be his
opinion that his wife's statement was true, but the
Mag;strate, on the contrary, remarked that when the
applicatien was made to him two or three days ago by
the defendant's husband, he thought the statement ex-
ceedingly improbable, and that the defendant must have
been labouring under some delusion. He was now con-
firmed in that impression, and it was his opinion that
she had been removed from the Peckham Asylum a
great deal too soon.

Mr. Powell said he had been subject to great annoy-
ance by the strange fancies of the defendant, and he
feared he should be subjected to much more unless she
was restrained by his wor,hip.
Mr. ELLiorr at first ordered the defendant to find
bail, but findinc, the extraordinary excesses she pro-
ceeded to in the Court, he desired that she might be at
once taken to the Lambeth workhouse with a view to
her being sent back to the Peckham Asylum.
EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY OF BANK NOTES.—John
Coffin, who was described as a law stationer, was finally
examined, and fully committed for trial, on a charge of
stealing 501. in bank notes, the property of Mr. Davis, a
law stationer in Castle-street, Holborn. The brief facts
of the case were these:—On the 21st of last month, the
prosecutor played the part of Richard the Third at an
amateur performance at the Bower Saloon, Stangate, and
in changing his dress, had left six five pound notes, and
two for ten pounds each in the pocket of his tights. The
prisoner, who acted as prompter, was in the dressing-
room at the time the prosecutor changed his dress, and
absconded the following day. On Friday week he was
apprehended near Ware, in Herefordshire, and upon
being searched, two of the stolen notes, namely, one for
five and the other for ten pounds were found in his pos-
session.

three fine horses at Blackwell, and, at the request of
Bray, they were put into Mr. Wigram's st ibles until
that gentleman appeared, when the horses wero exhi-
bited, and trotted up and down the stable yard. Bray
was very attentive to Mr. Wi.,erarn, who, of course, from
his high character, believed that the transaction was a
fair and honest one. Mr. Pearshouse, jun., was kept in
the background, and had no opportunities of conversing
with Mr. k) igram, who ultimately agreed to purchase
two of the horses, one for 341, and the other for 321.
Bray then came to Mr. Pearshouse, jun., and announced
that Mr. Wigram had choien, two horses, and mentioned
the price. Mr. Pearshouse, jun., heard the bargain
struck, and was satisfied on seeing the horses put
into Mr. Wigram's stables. Atter Bray had been
into Mr. Wig iam's counting-house, he returned to Mr.
Pearshouse, Jun., and said Mr. Wigram had no time
to write out a cheque for payment of the horse s then,
but would do so on the following Thursday, at ten
o'clock. Young Pearshouse then returned to town with
the horse that was unsold ; and, on the day and hour ap-
pointed, he again presented himself at Blackwell to re-
ceive the money, not doubting 'that the horses had been
fairly parted with on his firther's.account. He found the
prisoner waiting outside Mr. Wigrarn's, house, and he
stated that Mr. Wigram was very busy and had gone
away in a hurry, and that be would send the cheque for
156/. to Mr. Pearshouse, sen., on that or the following
day. The young man was ultimately persuaded by the
prisoner to return to town without the money ; and the
prosecutor, having waited for two days without
receiving any communication from Mr. Wigram, waited
on that gentleman, and ascertained that the prisoner had
received the cheque on the Thursday morning, previous
to Mr. Pearshouse. jun., arriving at Blackwall, and that
he had been paid the amount at the banker's. Mr.
Pearshouse, son., had thus been deprived of his horses and
his money too. It did occur to him (Mr. Pelham) that
there was a constructive stealing of the horses, or that Mr.
Pearshouse had been defrauded of 66/. by means of a silo
fairly brought about in the first-instance. Ile ought to
state, that it would be, perhaps, set up in defence that
the prosecutor was indebted to the prisoner, and that he
appropriated the money in payment of the debt, but. he
could assure the Bench that there was no account be-
tween them at all.' Mr. Pearshouse was not very
anxious to sell the horses, but, thinking there were some
remains of honesty in the prisoner, he allowed him to
introduce a purchaser to his son. Mr. Wigram thought
he was dealing entirely with Bray.
Mr. Pearshouse, sen., and his son gave evidence at
length, exactly supporting the statt merit of the soli-
citor: and added that Bray represented, aft,r the pur-
chase of the two horses.was completed, that Mr. Wigram
wanted to purchase three more horses on the following
Thursday, but no sale was then effected.
Mr. BALLANTINE inquired what had become of the
two horses in question, and Was informed they were
shipped in one of Mr. Wigram's vessels, bound to Ca
cutta.

After a long discussion between the magistrate and
the solicitor respecting the way in which the charge
could be shaped,
Mr. BALLANTINE said, there was no false pretence
about obtaining the horses or selling them. There was
a fair barter. The representation made by the
prisoner was fair and honest, as far as the sale of
the horses was concerned. Mr. Wigrain, however,
cculd only have understood he was dealing with
Bray, to whom he gave the cheque, and then came
the dishonest part of the transaction. The prisoner
said he had not got the cheque in his possession on the
Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, though it had been paid
to him an hour previous, and he induced Mr. Pearshouse,
jun.. to return to London on the under,tanding that the
cheque should be forwarded next day to his father at
Greenwich. The case was not without its difficulties,
but the charge upon which he should ca!l the prisoner
for his defence was for stealing 68/.
The prisoner, with a self-confident air, as if he was
conducting an ordinary business transaction, said he had
a very few words to say until he saw Mr. Foster, his
solicitor, of Jermyn-street, under whose advice he had
acted in retaining the money fur a large debt owing to
him by Mr. Pe arshause. He should say the prosecutor
owed him 100/.
Mr. Pelham denied that his client owed the prisoner
a sixpence, and said that Mr. Pearshouse had been a
benefactor to the prisoner and kept him from starving,
and he had now ungratefully turned round upon him.
The prisoner said that Mr. Foster told him to do ex-
actly as he had done ; in fact, he had acted under his
directions, and he wished to send for him. Mr. %Viol-am
recognised no one but him in the transaction. He hoped
he should be allowed to send for his attorney.
Mr. BALLANTINE said the prisoner might send for his
attorney, but he certainly should not wait for him. If
Mr. Pearshouse did owe the prisoner 100/., he had no
right to take his money. If one man owed another 1001.,
he would have no right to go to the desk or cash-box of
his debtor, and take the amount away.
The prisoner, with a free and easy manner, said he was
an agent, paying and receiving money on account of
Mr. Pearshouse. He would admit receiving the cheque
and obtaining cash for it. He had written to Mr,
Pearshouse to that effect. The letter was to the follow.

POISONINGS AT CLAY
ADJOURNED TYQUEST. —The adjourned inquest into
the deaths of Joseph and James Chesham, the children
alleged to have been poisoned by their mother, was re-
sumed on Saturday morning at half-past ten o'clock,
before C. C. Lewis, E.sq , the coroner, at the Fox and
Hounds.
The following evidence was adduced, in addition to
that which has already appeared in The Sun, respecting
this sinolar case:=
11{rs Ann Deardes Was recalled—She had omitted to
state that one day as she was passing Chesham's house,
the accused woman -accosted her, and said, " I connt I
shall soon hang upon Chelmsford gallows, and he buried
beneath it." This was after the death of -the children.
Since that event Mrs. Chesham had-appeared wild' and
comical. Her eyes always appeared as though they were
starting out of her head, and. she was constantly crying
about her boys.
Charles Cole, a labourer, was called, and manifested
great reluctant: to being sworn, repeatedly declaring
that he' "Know'd nothing about it." Having at length
been prevailed upon, he deposed, in answer to the coro-
ner, that he had had some conversation with John
Chrsharn, the second son of the accused woman, but
what passed on that occasion " had quite slipped oat of
his memory."
James Low, a ratcatcher, repeated his testimony that
the woman Chesham had asked. hi:n 'fcr some ar&snir,
but whether that was before or after the death of the
children he could not recollect, although he thought it
was before. Ile (lid no; give her any, because he thought
he should not get paid for it.
A juror asked the surgeon who had attended the boys
whether he had ever given the accused woman reason to
believe that the boys had died from inflammation of the
lungs ?—The surgeon said lie had not.
Susan Green sated that on the Thursday night, pre-
vious to the last_sitting of the jury, she heard the boy
John Chesham taik to Cole about the evidence he was
to give on the inquest. The boy_ replied, "Oh, I know
what to say, for my master has told me." Cola works at
Mr. Thomas Newnorts.—(Sensation.)
The boy John Chesham was confronted with.the wit-
ness, and denied that he made. such a statement. Ile
said, " Cole spoke to me, and told me to mind what I ,
said at the inquest. I uad:. no reply." No persuasion
or threats could induce him to say another word on the
- •
subject.

CORONER—It is very evident .to me that you have
been tampered with in the most unjustifiable manner,
and it is confidently stated that your mister is the person
who has interfv red with you. It appears that your
master is -a person named Wisbey, and at the present
moment sitting in this room as a member of the jury.
Mr. Wisbey declared that he had said nothing to the,
boy further than counselling him• to tell the truth.
Mr. Spencer, a juryman, said—Mr. Wisbey, it seems
to me that you allowed your servant to take a liberty
with you which no servant of mine would dare to take
with me. When that boy, John Chesham, left this
room on the last inquiry, he touched you on the Om,
looked up in your face, and smiled. You then said, " Well
done, boy, you did it very well."—(Much sensation
among the jury.)
CORONER (to Wisbey)—l have no doubt you made
that remark to the boy, and that could not have been
done without an object. .It was a strong remark to
make, because it was the conviction of all present that
the oy had committed perjury. Has any one men-
tioned the subject to you ? Wishey—No.
CORONER—Not either of (she New Ports ? Wisbey—
No ; I never spoke to them on the swject, •
CORONER—Have you riot been up there occasionally
of an evening to tdk about this subject ? Wisbey—
Yes, I may have been up there to talk about it sometimes.
CORONER—Was anything said about the boy ?
Wisbey—Not that I re.colect.
A Juror—Did Thomas Newport say anything about
arsenic.? Wisbey—Yes, he said something about it,
but I forgo; wha'.
Mr. Spencer, a juryman, expressed his conviction
that the conduct of Wisbey had been di,gracefitl, and
that his criminality had been increased by the fact that
as a jur,r' he had sworn t,) do justice.
Mrs. Chesham, the mother Of the accused woman, upon
being recalled, dechired that she had never said she was
not going to tall the jury all she knew about the deaths
of the two boys.

Mr. Spencer, a juror (a:7dressing the witness), said—
Mr. Newport told we you had said so in the presence of
fifty people.

Mrs. Chesham—lt is false, and Mr. Newport dares not
come here and make that statement while I am present.
The CCIONER said it now became his duty to offer to
the jury a few observations respecting the very import-
ant and mysterious inquiry in which they hail been en-
gaged, prior to the consideration of their verdict. They
had it clearly proved that the deceased Joseph Chesham
died on the 19th January, 1845, and his brother James
on the 22d January, but three days afterwards. It had
also been crovod beyond dispute that both these ehildren
had died.from the effects of arsenic, and it would be the
duty of the jury, if pos,ible, to say how-or by whom the
poison had been administered.
The evidence having been read ever, the Court was
cleared, and the jury remained for a long time in deli-
beration, when

The CORONER said—From certain circumstances
'which have hcen disclosed, and of which until just now
I was perfectly ivaorant, the jury as well as myself-feel
that a furth:r adjournment is necessary, in order that
evidence'may be obtained, which will in all probability
prove of a very important and conclusive character.
The investigation was adjourned fur five weeks.

TREATIVI.ENT OF THE POOR IN
ST. PANCRAS WORKHOUSE.
'The inquiry into the alleged ill-treatment of some of
the inmates of St. Pancras workhouse was resumed
on F i ay, by adjournment from Tuesday last, before
the directors and guardians of the poor of the parish.
The members of the board were engaged in the trans-
action of ordinary parish business until two o'clock,
when the investigation was resumed. Mr. C. E. Wag-
staff, churchwarden, presided. Several members of the
'vestry were present. The district medical officers of the
parish had been summoned to attend this meeting, and
the board at once proceeded to hear their statements.
Mr. Harrison, one of the district surgeons, was the
first witness examined. He stated that, having looked
through the diet table,- he considered there could be no
objection to it, provided the feed was of the best
quality. His attention had been particularly drawn to
the dietary table for the paupers in the refractory
ward; and he must say, though they deserved some
punishment, that he did not think it prudent to de-
prive them of animal food altogether. (Some con-
versation here took place between Mr. Harrison and
several members of the board, in the course of which it
appeared that Mr. Harrison had misunderstood the re-
gulations of the refractory ward. His impression was
that the inmates of that ward were altogether deprived
of animal food, but it was explained that the refractory
paupers received only 4cz. of meat three times a week,
while the other inmates of the house received 6 )z.) He
should say that the suspension of meat rations was de-
cidedly prejudicial to health. He did not think there
was much to complain of in the present dietary, sup-
posing the port i ige, the butter, and the cheese, were of
the best quality. The allowance 'was not great, but it
was enough to keep people in .health, If the milk por-
ridge was good, he did not know but that the allowance
was sufficient; if it was of bad quality, he would say de-
cidedly that the quantity allowed was not enough. He
had heard that the milk porridge in the house was thin;
that only a quart of dairy milk was allowed to six quarts
of oatmeal. If that were the case it was not milk-
porridge, but water-porridge. With regard to the beef,
a great deal depended upon the manner in which it was
served up; whether it was well cooked or not sufficiently
cooked. It appeared that the inmates generally had beer
allowed on the days when they had meat and potatoes.
His opinion was that it would be advisable to allow them
beer on the days when they had no meat.
Mr. HoweeTre—Do you consider, when persons have
grossly misconducted themselves, and when no work is
exacted from them, that it would be prejudicial to their
health to keep them for one vie els on the dietary of this
workhouse, without meat ?—I should say, as far as that
week goes, that such a,course would be decidedly pre.
judicial. If they commenced the week in good health,
they would be far more likely to be unwell than well
at its termination. It might not be prejudicial in every
case, but, generally speaking, I think it would be so.
Mr. Howenear—l want to know whether you think
that the health of refractory, able-bodied, and healthy
paupers would be injured by depriving them of two
ounces of meat on alternate de-3s should say it
would be decidedly injurious to their health.
In answer to a question from Mr. T. H. Smith, Mr.
Harrison stated that he had not -seen the " sheds" in
welch the refractory paupers were confined, and at the
request of the board he proceeded to inspect them.
Mr. Erasmus Wilson, consulting surgeon to the parish,
was then examined—He said, if the food of the inmates
of the workhouse is, bond fide, what is represented in the
diet table, I consider it very excellent diet, with one ex-
ception. I think the broth might be improved by mix-
ing peas with the barley.
The Guirnmeet—ln the refractory ward a reduction
of two ounces is made in the allowance of meat, which is
served to the paupers three times a week. Do you
think that could be prejudicial to the health of the pau-
pers?---I thisk if the broth were better, if it were made
more nutritive end palatable, there could be no objection
-to such a reduction.
Mr. Iloweent—Do you think any injury would re-
sult to paupers who had been guilty of misconduct by
depriving them, for three alternate-days in one week of
two ounces of meat daily, substituting four ounces of
potatoes?—l should say if the other articles of food
mentioned in the diet table were of good quality, there
could be no objection to such a reduction in the allow-
ance of meet for one week; but all other articles ought
to be of good quality.
Mr. Wilson then suggested that the paupers should
have a larger amount of milk and sugar. He consi-
dered that the dimunition of the allowance of meat for
one weep: would not have an injurious effect "on the
health of a growing girl or boy, provided •their other
diet was good; but he did not think it a judicious mode
of punishment.
Mr. Harrison recalled—I have seen the place called
the " shed," and I was agreeably surprised at its ap-
pearance. I expected to find a much more inferior place.
I think, however, that it ought to be two or three feet
higher. The bed-room in the women's shed is decidedly
objectionable. I think there is nothing to complain of as
to the meet's rooms. The women's bed room is not a fit
place for any one to sleep in; the wall is damp for a
con4iderable distance on both sides of the fire-place, and
about the fire-place itself.
- Mr. Curteis, a district surgeon, stated—The dietary of
this house is much superior to that of the generality of
similar establishments. I find that throe pints pf por-
ridge a day are allowed fur each individual. --Now, if
one ounce and a half of oatmeal is allowed to a pint of
porridge, that is more than is allowed by the Poor-
law Commi,zsioners, and not far below the allowance at
the Naval Asylum at Greenwich. I think it is injudi-
cious to diminish the allowance of food to paupers in the
shed, becau-e persons suffering punishment, and who are
in a state of depression, require more stimulating food
than free men.
Mr. HowAnTrt said it was unjust to suppose that the
system of separation adopted in the house was regarded
as a [node of punishment,
Mr. Curteis understood that the inmates of the refrac-
tory ward consich red they were regarded as an inferior
class to the paupers in the house.
Mr. E. Wilson, who, since his previous examination,
had visited the sheds, was here recalled, and examined,
by the CHAIRMAN—Ile said, I consider that the rooms
in -the refractory ward, especialty the men's working-
room, are very ill ventilated. The women's sleeping-
room is very damp, and it appeared to me "that this
dampness arose from defective draining. I think the
women's bed-room is much too low, considering the
number of persons who occupy it.
Mr. Todd, a district surgeim, stated that he found the
porridge made fur the paupers was not milk-porridge,
but a kind of water-gruel, without much milk. It' they
gave the paupers water-gruel, they ought to use oatmeal
ground more coarsely than that which they now used.
He had lived upon oatmeal-porridge, taking also half a
pint of milk in the morning, for eight successive years,
without tasting animal food. He had gone round the
wards to-day. Some of the paupers had made com-
plaints about the food. He had told them they filled out
their clothes so well that they could not be on low diet.
He did not think that it persons were put on low diet
for ems week it would be prejudicial to their health.
By Mr. T. 11. SMITH—I have visited two apartments
called the " sheds." My opinion is, that there is not
a workshop in this metropolis half so good as
the men's shed, though a little better venti-
lation would make "it cooler. I never was in
a workshop in this city where there was half
the comforts the men have in the shed. The working-
room of the women is rather low, but still there is good
ventilation. I looked into their bed-room. There is a
dampness in the corner which ought not to exist in a
sleeping apartment. I consider that a sleeping-room
ought not to be below the level of the ground.
Mr. T. H. Sulam thought ,the master of the work-
house, or the surveyor, ought to have informed the board
of the condition of the women's room.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. Curteis was recalled, and stated that he had been
to see the rooms occupied by the refractory paupers. It
appeared to him that the work-room did very well.
They d:d not eppear to want air there, but that must,
of course, depend in a great measure on the number 0
persons who might be in the apartment. If the ceiling
were higher the ventillation would be tough better,
his opinion, from the number of beds in the sleeping
room, the accommodation in that respect was very de-
fective. In the hospitals a cube of nine feet was allowed
for each individnal ; but the room to which he referred
was about 30 feet long by 17 or 18 feet wide, and some-
times 27 or 28 persons were crowded into it. According
to the practice at the hospitals, that room ought not to
contain more than six individuals.
Mr. Johnson, district surgeon, stated that if the pre-
scribed dietary were perfectly carried out be could not
see much objection to it. He did not think, if persons
were deprived of meat diet for a week, their other allow-
ance of food :remaining the same, that such a course
would be prejudicial to health. He had been in the
men's working room, and it was a great deal better than
the generality of workshops in London.
, Mr. Harrison recalled—The room in which a number
of the old female paupers lived was very damp.
Mr. T. H. Cooper, the parish surgeon, was again
called, and said he thought, if the prescribed dietary was
uniformly and properly carried out, that it would be
amply sufficient for the maintenance of the poor. He
concurred in the recommendation of Mr. Wilson, that an
allowance of' peas should be made to the paupers. He
had before stated that it not unfrequently happened that
a large portion of the four ounces of meat given to the
refractory paupers three times a week consisted of fist,
and he hoped the board would not rest satisfied with hie
statement, but that they would appoint a committee to
inquire into the facts.
Mr. HowanTir here objected to Mr, Cooper's proceed-
ing with any further statement.
Mr. Cooper said, as other medical men had been re-
quested to give their opinions on particular points he
thought he ought to have an opportunity of expressing
his opinions on those subjects.
In answer to Mr. BRAY,
Mr. Cooper stated that he had from time to time
found diseases existing among the paupers in the sheds,
which probably arose from their confinement.
Mr. flowenTit• considered that the evidence of the
medical officers was teken to-day with a view to ascer-
tain whether the complaints made by Mr. Cooper, on
Tut sday, were well founded or not, in order that if those
complaints were borne out the board might make some
alteration in the dietary tables. He did not, however,
think it fair that Mr. Cooper should be allowed to come
ment on the evidence which} had been given by the other
Medical gentlemen.
Mr. Cooper denied that he had attempted to make any
comments on the evidence of the medical witnesses who
had been examined.
Mr. Bird, surveyor to the parish, was then called, at
the request of Mr. 'T. H Smith, and stated that it was
two or three years since lie saw the rooms in which the
refractory women were kept, and that he knew nothing
whatever of the cause of the, dampness of those:apart-
ments.

Mr. HOWARTH observed, that at the former investi-
gation, Mr. Cooper had complained that when he men-
tion d the fact of the women washing, themselves in the
chamber utensils, he was told by the master of the wozk-
house $0 1191 d his tongue and mind his shop. Mr. CooPeZ
