CORONERS' INQUESTS.

Tues4ay an inquest was held at the King's Heal,
Tottenham Court-road, on the body of Thomas Ethring-
ton, aged 66, a farmer, late of East Wolding, in Yak-
shire. The deceased had some property in Yorkshire,
and he came to London some time hack in order to for-
ward a last-suit. He resided at the above house, and
appeared in embarrassed circumstances. On Thursday
morning be was found dead in his bed, and it appeared
that a blood-ves-el had been ruptured. He usually wore
a large neckerchief round hi+ neck by day and night,
rod on being taken off after death, his throat presented a
most disagreeable appearance, the windpipe, which was
very large, projecting several inches, and with the appear-
ance of having been formerly divided and sewed up.
He was a very reserved man, and bad lately been in die-
'reseed circumstances. A letter was found in his pocket
from one of his tenants in Yorkshire, named Bainbridge,
Worming him that his lands were going to rack and ruin
for the want of proper attention, advising their sale at a
reduced price, and offering himself as a purchaser.
Verdict—' Died by the visitation of God."
Tuesday an inquest was held at the Yorkshire Grey
Tavern, in Brydges-streer, Covent-garden, on the hotly of
a person unknown. It appeared in evidence that the
deceased came there about eleven o'clock on the previous
night, and asked if he could have a bed. Having bee"
answered in the affirmative, he went into the coffee-room,
and in about a quarter of an hour afterwards he was found
by the waiter sitting in a corner of the room, and evident!?
dying. Medical assistance was immediately obtained, but
he expired in a few minutes. In his pocket was found a
battle which had contained prussic acid ; but as the me-
dical man was not in attendance before the Coroner, the
inquest was adjourned until Friday next. The deceased
was dressed in a brown frock coat, hl ick silk vest, dark
trousers and boots, and his linen was marked " T. L."
An inquest was held on Monday, in Newgat., on the
body of John do Silva, a black man, who, about four
months ae.o, was charred at the Thames Police will at-
tempting to murder Robert Balcraig. mate of the brig
Courier, on her passage from St. Helena to London.
The prisoner was cook and steward on board the same
vessel, and his trial was to have taken place at the Admi-
ralty Sessions yesterday. Mr. Charles Holding, assistant
surgeon of the prison, stated that the deceased, whom he
had attended for some time, died of a rupture of the
hleod.sessels leading directly from the heart. There were
no marks of violence on the body, and the rupture might
have at isen from natural causes, as the vessels were previ-
ously diseased. Joseph Woodward, an unconvicted pri-
soner, deposed that he dept in the room lately occupied by
the deceased, who had been complaining of his chest anti
stomach for sonic time previous to his death. At eight
o'clock on the moaning of Friday last, as witness was
sitting beside him at the Ere, he dropped su,denly from
the seat anti fell on his back. He then stre eked out his
legs, and, groaning heavily, exclaimed, " 0 my mother !
my poor mo her ! lay me dowit, I shall die," and almost
immediately after expired. Verdict—Died by the visita-
tion of God.
