UNI N. HALL.
Yesterday John Wyatt, landlord of the Marquis
of Granby, Loman's Pond, Southwark, was brought
up from the station-house of the M division, in the
Southwark-bridge-road, charged wiih an attempt to
murder his wife by cutting her throat with a knife.
The prisoner, when placed at the bar, looked exces-
sively bad, and seemed to be labouring under consi-
derable despondency of mind, particularly when he
heard that his wife was in that condition at present
as to render her attendance at the office quite im-
possible.
Alban Young, the first witness called, on Sunday
evening was at the Marquis of Granby, and about
eight o'clock, as he was taking a pint of porter in
the tap-room, he heard a cry of " Murder," in a
female voice, proceed from the direction of the bar.
He immediately ran to the assistance of the person
whose cries he had heard, and on entering the bar
parlour saw the prisoner with one of his arms
round his wife's neck, and she still crying " Murder."
Witness seized the prisoner, and he then saw blood
gushing from a wooed in Mrs. Wyatt's throat. The
prisoner resisted being taken into custody, but upon
the arrival of the police he was taken to the station-
house. The witness added that he had previously
heard the prisoner and his wife quarrelling with
each other in the bar. Subsequently to the witness
having run into the bar to the protection of Mrs.
Wyatt, and when he seized her husband, she rushed
out bleeding from the neck into the tap-room, and
there fell, in a state of insensibility, into the arms
of a person who happened to be there.
In reply to Mr. MURRAY, the witness said that
the prisoner was evidently under the influence of
liquor.
Inspector Brown, of the M division, while in the
yard at the rear of the station-house, that morning,
heard the prisoner address the locker (the man who
has charge of the keys of the cells), and express
himself to this effect—" I should like to know how
Mrs. Wyatt is this morning, for I am afraid that in
the heat of passion last night I did her some injury."
The inspector added that the prisoner seemed un-
conscious of the nature of the injury he had inflicted
on his wife until informed of it that morning.

Mr. Eales, surgeon, in Union-street, was called in
to see Mrs. Wyatt on the night in question, and
upon his arrival he found her sitting in the bar, and
several persons around her. At present her removal
would be attended with danger, but when he saw
her that morning, no alarming symptoms prevailed.
An application was here made to the Magistrates
by a professional man, who attended on behalf of
Mrs. Wyatt, to request that 701. found on the person
of the prisoner when he was taken into custody, but
which was now in the possession of the police in-
spector, might be delivered up for the benefit of his
wife. The applicant then said that the money be-
longed to Mrs. Wyatt, who had been left a consider-
able sum by a deceased relative, entirely independent
of her husband. The 701. formed a portion of the
legacy, and to possess himself of the same the pri-
soner forced open his wife's box, previously to the
attack upon her, and when he was apprehended the
money was found concealed in his shoes on his feet.
The application was opposed by Mr. Warner,
who said that the disputes between the prisoner and
his wife were mainly attributable to the money
which she claimed as her own. He contended that
the money, instead of being given up at present,
might be left in the hands of the inspector, in whose
possession it then was, until the proceedings conse-
quent on the occurrence had been determined. Mr.
Warner then proceeded to describe that he had been
repeatedly engaged in endeavouring to conciliate the
prisoner and his wife, who frequently quarrelled with
each other, and added that he had often himself
anticipated that something dreadful would happen
to them.

The magistrates made no order with respect to
the application of the 701., but were of opinion that
the inspector had better keep possession of it at pre-
sent. The prisoner was then remanded until the
fate of his wife is known.

NATURAL CURIOSITY.—Mr. T. Cooke,
of St. John-street in this city, has in his possession a live
dee hare, whose shoulders, ears, and the greater part of
be bead and legs are entirely white.—Hereford Times.

The Suabian Mercury gives the following,
under date of Frankfort, December 21:—" The sittings
of the Germanic Diet are closed for the year. The ap
proaching Congress of German Ministers at Vienna will
no doubt considerably enlarge the powers of the Diet ; but,
at the same time, in order to accomplish this end, the
members of the Germanic Confederation must, with a
view to the general interest, make sacrifices of some of their
sovereign prerogatives. These sacrifices, however, would
never be mirk, were it not to secure the prerogatives tha

remain."

On Thursday last an inquest was held on
board his Maj,sty's ship Victory, in Portsmouth Harbour,
before George Lamburn Greetham, Esq., Coroner fur the
Admiralty, upon view of the body of Thomas Fyshe
Hornsby, mate of the above ship. It appeared in evidence
that the deceased came on board in the evening of the Ist
inst., bringing with him some music, which was played
over to him by one of his mesemates at his request. About
12 o'clock the same night, he went with the schoolmaster
and one of the assistant surgeons of the ship to the galley,
to smoke segars, when they entered into conversation on
different subjects, particularly hydroceanic acid, the de-
ceased having previously been in the habit of taking it, to
raise his spirits, which were at times desponding. He
told the officers it made him, for some time after taking
it, feel very happy, and as if he were tipsy, and he liked
the sensation it produced. The officers endeavoured to
persuade him to discontinue the practice of taking it, but
he said be should continue to do so. The deceased with
the schoolmaster subsequently went into the gun-room, and
after drinking some porter, opened his desk and took out
a small phial containing the above acid, and poured a few
drops into a wineglass. The schoolmaster, thinking the
practice of taking the acid most injurious, threw what
had been poured into the glass on the deck, while the
deceased was putting the stopper into the bottle, but the
deceased, perceiving this, poured a small quantity more
into the glass. The schoolmaster, finding the deceased
determined on taking the acid, prevailed on him to dilute
it by half filling the glass with water, and in this state he
drank it, in the presence of the schoolmaster and one of
the master's assistants. The deceased immediately after-
wards appeared to be tipsy, and walked down to the cock-
pit, accompanied by the other officers, and was put to bed.
The assistant-surgeon attended him, and endeavoured to
pour water down his throat, for the purpo.e of diluting
the acid, but the deceased was unable to swallow anything.
He soon after became quite paralyzed, had all the syinp
toms of apoplexy, and died in about an hour after he
tae
deceased the acid. The Jury were of opinions that
deceased did not intend to destroy his lite by taking the
