Two other gentlemen made a few observations, and
The CHAIRMAN baying stated that the general opi-
nion of the society appeared to be that Sir John
Franklin might have forced his way through the Wel-
lington Channel, and might still be found; and
having expressed his sincere hope that such would be
the successful issue of Lieutenant Pim's adventurous
undertaking,
The meeting was adjourned.

THE LATE MURDER IIV MARYLEBONE.
Yesterday Thomas Bare was brought up from the
House of Detention, Clerkenwell, for re-examination,
before the sitting magistrate, Mr. Broughton, at the
Marylebone Police Court, on the charge of having
murdered Louisa Bare, his wife, by stabbing her with
a triangular saw file.
An immense number of persons had congregated in
the vicinity of the court, anxious to catch a glimpse of
the accused, and when the Government van drew up
at the back entrance in Paradise-street the mob rushed
en masse towards the vehicle. Many constables were,
as upon former occasions, in attendance to preserve
order, and the prisoner, after alighting, amid hisses
and the loudest execrations, was conveyed to one of
the lock -up rooms, in which he was to remain until
the night charges were disposed of.
At half-past three the prisoner was placed at the
bar, and the court at that period was crowded to ex-
cess ; he was much more pale than when brought up
in the first instance; but his perfect composure and
self. possession, after the array hfearful of evidence which
were present.ad already been adduced, surprised most of those who
Inspector Jackson, of the D division, was asked by
the magistrate what fresh evidence
he had in con-
nexion with the horrid affair, and he brought forward-
a most important witness,
.was unable from i
ness to attend before, her incapacity. to do so arising
from the fright and hock which her system bad sus-
tained.
Selina Beckett, the witness alluded to, and who
was still in a very weak state, was accommodated
with a seat; she was sworn, and live at 33,
North-street; my husband is a printer.
•I lodge in
the first floor front room. I knew a woman
o_man (the
prisoner's wife), who went by the name o
Nott • she
lodged in the back room next to mine. She was' i
the habit of going out to work at about eight in the
morning, and came home very regularly between
eight and nine.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Do you knew the prisoner ?
Witness—Yes; he is there (pointing to the bar) ;
be is the man who committed the murder.
Mr. BROUGHTON—When did you first see him ?
Witness—On the Saturday night when the murder
took place.
Mr. BROUGHTON—At what time did you see him
Witness—At a few minutes after nine.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Do you know anything that
took place in the parlour ? Witness—No.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Now, tell me all you know
with respect to this dreadful affair.
Witness—The deceased came in at about nine, and
I,heerd her go up stairs. I also heard the footsteps of
a man following her, but I took no particular notice
of the circumstance at the time, as the man used to
come to the house frequently. The man who fol-
lowed her went into the room, and I heard the door
shut, and presently there was some loud talking
as if the parties were quarrelling. Deceased
said to the man who had gone upstairs with her,
"Don't make any noise to disturb the other lodgers ;"
and after that I heard him (prisoner) say, " You
know that you and the woman who lives with you are
nothing better than common prostitutes." He ac-
cused his wife of having been drinking on the pre-
vious Saturday at a low public-house, with some more
bad women, and she made answer, " So help me God,
I was not there, but if you'll sit down I'll explain
everything to you ;" upon which he exclaimed "God
d-- you, I know enough of you already. I don't
want you to explain anything more." After that he
said, " I want nothing of you but my boxes, and, so
help me God, I won't leave this house without them."
He called her a b-- b--, and as soon as I heard
that, I ran down and spoke to the landlady, telling her
that there was dreadful quarrelling upstairs. The
landlady was at that period looking out at the door
for the police. I went up to my own room, pulled to
the door, and directly afterwards I heard a woman
scream "Murder!" I ran out, and on looking into
the prisoner's room, the door of which was open, I
saw aim strike the deceased with all his might, near
the windo v, with his right hand.
Mr. BROUGHTON—CouId you see whether he had
any instrument in his hand, or not ? Witness—l
could not.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Did you go into the apartment
Witness—l did, Sir, while deceased was still scream-
ing " Murder !" I heard her say to the prisoner,
" Don't murder me." These were the last words she
spoke. I saw the prisoner hit her with great force
several times after he had thrown her down, and when
she fell upon the fender, with her head reclining on
it, and while apparently quite insensible, he gave her
three or tour more blows as bard as he could. He
then passed by me and walked out of the room, and
went down stairs.
By Mr. BROUGHTON—After she fell upon the fen-
der she never spoke or moved. Witness, in continua-
tion, said—When the prisoner passed me he went out
at the front door. While he was striking the deceased
in his room I said to him, "Oh, pray take away your
things, but don't hurt the poor creature:' After he
bad quitted I saw a quantity of blood streaming from
the deceased's forehead, and there was a great deal of
blood also by the fireplace. Deceased's eyes were
fixed, and I was sure she was dead. I hastened down
to the landlady, who instantly repaired to the room,
and on my entering it in ten minutes afterwards, I
found the poor creature lying on the floor, life being
quite extinct. Witness further said, in reply to ques-
tions from the prisoner, a man used to come almost
every evening to see the deceased between a quarter
and half-past eight o'clock. He sometimes left at
ten, but never later than twelve. A woman named
Hands lived with the deceased and slept with her.
They worked at the same shop, and generally came
home together.
Mr. Fell (the chief clerk)—Was Hands generally
in the room when the men you speak of came? Wit-
ness—Yes, always, except when she went out for a
short time to get some refreshment.
Mr. Fell—Was the there on the night of the mur-
der ? Witness—Yes ; but she did not come in till
twelve o'clock.
Mr. BROUGHTON (to Inspector Jackson)—ls Mrs.
Hinds here ? Inspector—She is not, Sir, and it will
perhaps be some time before she will be able to leave
the infirmary.
Mr. BROUGHTON (to the witness Beckett)—Did
you ever see anything irregular in the conduct of the
deceased ? Witness—Never, Sir ; quite the con-
trary.
Inspector Jackson here said—" I find from the in-
quiries which I have instituted respecting her that she
has been for a long time a hard-working and industri-
ous woman, but that the prisoner has been jealous of
her for some years past."
The prisoner cross-questioned the witness Beckett,
who in reply to him said—There was no one in your
room but you and your wife; the boy was outside
with a box, and you had opened the door fur him to
take it out. After the box was taken away I heard
no words, but I did hear loud screams. I never
heard that either of the women was a fortune-teller.
Prisoner—l have nothing more to say to you.
(Addressing the magistrate)—ls Mrs. Hands to be
examined to-day ?
Mr. BROUGHTON—No, she is too ill, she is in the
infirmary.
Prisoner—Then I have no other questions to ask.
(He here sat down, and rested his head upon his
hands on the bar, yet at the same time did not betray
the slightest emotion.)
Some additional particulars were gone into corro-
borativelin some degree of those which bad preceded
the present inquiry.
Mr. BROUGHTON then gave the prisoner to
under-
of sovoluminous
a that as the depositions were
a nature, and as the sessions were now o
not be sent for trial until the next session of hewould
the Cen-
tral Criminal Court, which would commence
up again on the
15th of December; be would be brought
on Monday next, when the whole of the evidencegiven against him would be read over, and he would
then be sent to take his trial for the wilful murder
of his wife.
He was then locked up, and while being removed
from his cell to the prison van he narrowly escaped
being roughly treated by an immense mob.

SUICIDE OF A LUNATIC.—On Saturday an inquest
was held in Bethlem Hospital, on the body of Matilda
Maunde Durant, single woman, aged 43, a lunatic, who was
found suspended, on Thursday, by two sheets, which she
had attached to the aperture over the door of one of the
sleeping rooms. Mr. W. Wood, resident surgeon, said that
deceased never showed symptoms of her intentions to destroy
herself. She was admitted about four months ago, and was
allowed to walk in the lower gallery, the apartment for
peaceable patients. Matilda Law, deceased's cousin, said,
before deceased was received into the institution, she was
under the impression that she was a traitor to the Queen, and
that in consequence she was going to be executed. On one
occasion she remained in her room eleven weeks from the
effects of that delusion, when she suddenly destroyed all her
furniture and wearing apparel, and came to witness nearly
naked. She showed witness her neck, which was full of
scratches, and she stated that she had been trying to kill
herself. Coroner—What do you think was the exciting
cause? Witness—Jealousy. She was attached to a gentle-
man
