—The inquest upon the body of Elizabeth Ann Cann
was resumed at Bristol, on Wednesday. E. Bird, who

on the child. Some other evidence to a similar effect
having been heard, the jury, after a few minutes' consul-
tation, returned a verdict of" Wilful murder against John
Conn," and the coroner made out a warrant for his com-
mittal to take his trial at the Gloucester assizes.

Scott, Roman Catholic Bishop, died at his residence in

in Glasgow, where he officiated for a long period of
years, and his death will no doubt cast a gloom over a
large circle of friends and admirers, by whom he was
esteemed for his unostentatious gentlemanly manners,
and for the zeal he at all times mani'ested for the spiri-
tual interest of those of his own persuasion.—Glusgow

ing accidents occurred, one of which, it is feurel, will end
in loss of life:—The first case was that of James Allen,
aged thirty years, a labourer. He was engaged on the
roof of Messrs. Rolls and Co.'s floorcloth manufactor3.,
in Kennington-lane, Lambeth, when he slipped and fell
about fitty-four feet, to the basement of the building,
where he received the most fearful injuries. lie was
conveyed to Guy's Hospital, where he was found to have
sustained a fracture of the right arm, extensive injury to
the chest, fractures of several ribs, and other serious in-
juries. He lies in a precarious state. Another accident
happened to a female named Martha Willis, aged twenty-
nine years, residing at No. 2, Fair-street, llorslydown.
She was walking along a passage, when she stumbled
over a trapdoor, and fell heavily to the floor, and when
raised up, was found to have received a compound frac-
ture of the left thigh. She was taken to Guy's Hospital,
and is progressing favourably. A third accident took
place to a young woman named Jane Hopkins, of No.
21, Flask-court, Tooley-street, Southwark. She had
been to take her husband's tea, and while crossing the
carriage way in High-street, Borough, she was knocked
down by a cart, the off wheel of which passed over her
legs. She was carried to Guy's Hospital.
