THE WfDOW of the late Rev. GEORGE
EDW LIM HOLL EST, of Frimley, Surrey —Frimley, Bag-
shot, December 31, IRSO. —An earnest AP PEAL to public benevolence
Is respectfully submitted by a few friend,' and neighbours on behalf
of the WIDOW of the late Rev :GEORGE EDWARD HOLI ,EST,
who for a period of IR years, in an exemplary- manner, performed
the duties of his church, and was distinguished by his benevolence
and charity in the wide district under his charge. The act of
atrocity by which the Rev. Mr. holiest was suddenly cut off is
universally known, but those only who are acquainted with his posi-
tion are aware that he never had the meaus of making provisi en
for his widow. Under such circumstances, it is hoped that the case
of litre. Holiest will commend itself to the generous consideration
of those who are blessed with the means of alleviating, so far as
human sympathy and assistance can alleviate, the distress of a
family so fearfully bereft of its natural supporter. The income of
Mrs. Holiest does not exceed 40/. per annum, and subscriptions aro
earnestly solicited in aid of these inadequate means. Subscriptions
will be thankfully received by the following bankers :—Messrs.
Herries, Farquhar, and Co.; Messrs. Williams, Deacon, and Co.;
Messrs. Barclay, Tritton, and Co. ; Messrs. Coutts, and Co.; Messrs.
Smith, Payne, and Co.; Sir S. Scott, Bart., mill Co., I, Cavendish-
square; Messrs. Mangles Brothers, Guildford; Messrs. Stev,iis
and Blandy, Reading; also by the following members of the Com-
mittee :
R. R. Bayley, Esq., Mitchett, Frimley, Bagshot.
J. F. Burrell, Esq., Manor House, Frimley.
Rev. J. H. Clayton, Farnborough, Bagshot.
Rev. John Lawrell, Cove, Bagshot.
Sir Walter Farquhar, Bart., Farnborough-place, Bagshot.
•
Thomas Longman, Esq., Farnborough-hill. Bagshot.
Captain Charles Edward Mangles, Poyle-park, Farnham, Surrey.
The Committee have the satisfaction to state that her Majesty the
Queen, the Duchess of Gloucester, and the Bishop of Winchester,
have sanctioned their exertions by very liberal donations.
The Committee return their grateful thanks for the liberal manner
in which their appeal has been responded to, and they thankfully
acknowledge the following

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE.
•
Capital-500,0Ni/.
(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office arz —Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits.
The difficulty of collecting the elements en which to proportion
Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so
great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.
It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the
true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rance Company is established.
The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently acted •n, or systematically applied.
Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
is largely interested in this Question, and will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to tire, adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariffs with other offices.
With this view an annual inrestiga,lon will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years.
Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon
every description of Property on moderate terms.
Farming Stock insured. at 3s . per cent, without the Average Clause.

tion at the Office, or to any of its Agents.

CASE OF MANSLAUGHTER AT TIIE
PECKHAM LUNATIC ASYLUM.

On Saturday the Hon. G. C. Norton was engaged
for nearly three hours in concluding the investigation in
which Samuel Hill, one of the keepers at Armstrong's
Peckham-house Asylum, was charged with having
caused the death of Moses James Barnes, a pauper in-
mate of that institution, by inflicting on him very seri-
ous-injuries.
Mr. Bodkin, the barrister, attended on behalf of the
Commissioners in Lunacy, to prosecute; and Mr. Her•
ring, a solicitor, appeared on behalf of the accused.
Mr. Bodkin, addressing Mr. Norton, said he had the
honour to appear on behalf of the Commissioners in
Lunacy, one of whom, with their secretary and solicitor,
was also present, to prosecute in the present case, which
they conceived to be one of considerable public import-
ance. The coroner before whom the case had been in-
vestigated had, he (Mr. Bodkin) understood, refused,
from a conscientious but mistaken view of the law, to
receive as witnesses, and therefore rejected the evidence
as against the accused, of those patients who were in the
infirmary at the time, and who witnessed the prisoner's
violence towards the deceased. It would be his (Mr.
Bodkin's) duty now to place in the witness-box one of
these poor men, and he had no doubt whatever, after
hearing the statement of this poor man, the magistrate
would feel it to be his duty to send the case to another
and higher court.
The Learned Counsel here desired that Richard Don-
nolly be called and sworn.
Mr. Herring, whose objections to his heir)g received
as a witness had been overruled by the magistrate, ex-
amined Donnolly as to his notions of the obligation of
an oath, and his answers were as lucid and satisfactory
as could be given. The oath was then administered to
him in the usual way, and he deposed as follows :—I am
an Irishman, and have been i❑ Mr. Armstrong's Asylum
for about four years and four months. I knew the de-
ceased man Barnes. He was in the infirmary the latter
part of the time, and I slept next to him. I recollect
Christmas-day, it was on the Wednesday, and on the
Monday evening, before seven o'clock, the deceased, who
was a sulky man and easily excited, was desired to go
to bed, but he would not till Hill (the prisoner) came.
The prisoner behaved a little more hastily tha❑ usual,
and took hold of Barnes with both his hands by the
upper part of th• arms, and threw him down suddenly
on the ground. I don't remember whether the
prisoner fell upon him or not; but Barnes came
down with his left shoulder übdermost. Hill
helped him up and proceeded to strip him. The
deceased said he should not let Hill or myself put
him to bed, as he had not been hurt, and I
then said, " You have got your Christmas-box, poor
man." This I said to Barnes, in allusion to the fall he
received from Hill. Hill put the deceased to bed the
night after, without his making resistance. I believe
there was a slight struggle between the prisoner and
deceased before the fall. The fall was a hard one, and a
few minutes after the prisoner was gone Baines called
me to look at his shoulder, and he complained of being
hurt. I felt the collar bone, and found that that was
not broken; and I tried to make as light of it as I could,
not thinking at the time that he received any serious
injury. There was nothing the matter with the de-
ceased before the fall I have named. The morning after
that fall the prisoner dressed him. The deceased com-
plained to Hill that his arm was very sore, and I think I
then said the collar bone was not hurt. I saw Moncas-
ter, one of the other keepers, coming into the infirmary
one morning, and deceased complained to him about his
arm, and the prisoner then lifted up the arm, and it
slidud down, as if powerless. Hill said there was no-
thing the matter with it, and I then lilted it up, and
called the prisoner's attention to the hand, which I ob-
served was swollen. Ido not recollect Hill striking the
deceased, but he dressed him every morning, from the
Monday till the Friday, when Dr. Hill came.
The witness was cross• examined at considerable length,
and in the course of it the prisoner's solicitor elicited the
fact, that he (witness) and two other pauper lunatics,
ware in the habit of occasionally attending on the other
inmates of the infirmary, and that on the evening of the
encounter with the prisoner the deceased had irritated
Attwood, ono of the patients, but no injury was done to
the former. Witness and Attwood were in the habit of
dressing the deceased and giving him his food , but he
used to resist them, and then Hill, the prisoner, was
obliged to be sent for. Was sure that Hill dressed the
deceased on Christmas morning, for on that day Baines
complained of having pains in his breast. Witness
had been examined several times since the death of
the deceased, but was not told by any person what he
should say.
In his re-examination the witness said the deceased
had not complained of injuries of any kind until after the
fall given to him by the prisoner, and that the prisoner
dressed him every morning from that time until he had
been examined by the doctor, on the morning of Friday,
the 27th of December.
At the conclusion of the witness's evidence, Mr. Nor-
ton remarked that he had never heard evidence given
with, to his mind, and he was sure also to the minds of
all who heard it, greater truth.
Moncaster, a keeper in Mr. Armstrong's Asylum, was
hero recalled, and in reply to the questions put to him,
said the delusion under which the deceased laboured
was, that sometimes he had one butt of beer,!and at other
times two butts of beer in his inside.

The prisoner was fully committed to take his trial at
he ensuing session et thA Old Bailey. for manslaughter.

THE UCKFIELD BURGLARY.

--
TUNBRIDGE WELLS, JAN. 18.—The prisoners charged
with being concerned in the burglary at Downland-
house, the residence of the Misses Farncombe, were
again brought up this morning for :re-examination, at
the Town-hull, Tunbridge Wells. The court was, as
before, densely crowded.
It will be recollected that in the former examination
six prisoners had been identified as being concerned in
the robbery, and having portions of the stolen property
in their possession; and a female prisoner, named
Eliza-
beth 011iver, who also had some trinkets and money, '
part of the proceeds of the robbery, was subsequently
apprehended. To-day another prisoner, named William
Brookes, who is said to be the captain of the gang, and
to have given some important information to the police,
was added to the number. The seven male pri-
soners were all handcuffed together, and were guarded
by several police. The magistrates considering
these precautions sufficient, their irons were re-
moved. They all exhibited the same reckless-
ness and indifference as in the previous exa-
mination. Hillyer, whose hand was injured by himself,
and still remains bandaged up, looked extremely pale
and attenuated, but his manner was as daring as before.
As soon as all the prisoners were placed at the bar, the
woman 011iver, who appeared very nervous and anxious
in her manner, applied :to the magistrates for leave to
state how she became possessed of the property, but the
chairman, Mr. Deane, said that was not the time.

On the bench were James Deane, Esq., W. Elers,
Esq., John Price, Esq., and Alderman David Salomons.
After conferring together, the bench directed that
Brooke, the last prisoner apprehended, should be re-
moved. The feeling of the other members of the gang
may be gathered from the fact, that when he was passing
Hillyer gave him a desperate kick on the leg.
Miss Susan Farncombe was sworn and examined.
She said—l live at Downland-house, in the parish of
tickfield. On the morning of Thursday, the 2d of
January, about three o'clock, three men came into
my room and demanded my money or my life. One
remained at the door, and one came to the side of
my bed, and another to the foot of my bed. I was
alone. I gave him my purse, and, hearing my sister
scream, I got out of bed and went to her. I think
there was about four sovereigns and a half, and some
silver, in my purse. It was a purple silk purse, with
steel beads. When I came back I missed my watch.
The men were masked—one of them wore a white one.
I was too agitated to observe the colour of the others. I
did not recognise any of the men. The men at first
tried to prevent my leaving the room; but when I told
them I was going to my sister they allowed me to pass.
So far as that went they were very civil. I found two
or three men in my sister Mary's room, and they made
the same demand. She told them her watch and money
were on the table. They took a box o:f the table con-
taining sovereigns and silver; I cannot tell how much.
They also took a trinket-box. They said they would
have money; they knew we had more money, and money
they would have—that they wanted bread:and cheese to
eat with it. One of them saw the key of a bureau in
out
the lock, and went to examine it. They took 50/. eof
two pocket books, in notes, from the Weal]: They

numbers when he got them from the b
them took my sister's gold watch, MY sister Mary
had some very valuable things, but don't see any 0`
them here.
Miss Emily Farncombe was then sworn, and stated

[PRICE SD.

that on the morning in question two men entered her
room. Three others followed immediately afterwards.
My sister Charlotte slept with me. One man came to
the foot of the bed and said, " Money we want, and
money we will have." He repeated that twice. I said.
I had got none. They were going to move the clothes
at the toot of the bed, and I said, take my dressing-
case. There were three boxes on the table; he asked
me which. I pointed it out to him and he demanded
the keys. I gave them to him, and begged of him nut
to destroy the case. Ho said he would not. Ho opened
it and asked how much money was in it. I said 201,
but I recol:ected there were 25/. in it. The money was
in a small silk purse, four 5/. Lewes Bank notes and five
sovereigns. They ransacked the drawers and threw
everything about the room. There were only two men
in the ienim wheu the purse was taken. They cpened
trinket box and took a gold chain and seals, several
valuable rings and brooches, and other trinkets. The
men came in and went out occasionally. I cannot say
whether there were five men or seven, but I saw five at
once. They were all masked, and I was so frightened
that I could not identify any:of them.
The prisoners declined to ask any questions,
The Chairman then addressed the prisoners, and
again asked if any of them bad anything to say, cau-
tioning them that anything they might state would be
used in evidence against them at their trial. The pri-
soners were then severally interrogated.

James Smith answered, "I have nothing to say."
Joseph Carter said he was not guilty. John Smith said
he was innocent of what he had been brought there for.
Thomas Morgan said he had bought the goods and paid
the full value for them. William Hillyer said he knew
nothing about it, which occasioned a burst of laughter in
the court. James Hamilton had nothing to say; and
Elizabeth 011iver said she had found the articles at the
Leech pit pond, and the money found upon her (fifteen
sovereigns) was her own.

The six prisoners were then fully committed to Lewes
Assiaes for the burglary and robbery, and the woman
011iver for receiving a portion of the stolen property.
The Misses Farncombe were bound over in the sum
of 401. each to prosecute, and were permitted to with-
draw from the court. They ;expressed great anxiety to
get away early, as they had a journey of fifteen miles
and a wild common to cross.

The property hitherto foand is of very trifling value,
the plate, valuable gold watches, diamond rings, &c., not
having been discovered, although, calculating the time
that had elapsed between the commission of the bur-
glary and the apprehension of the prisoners, the police
are of opinion that it has not been sold, but lies con-
cealed in the neighbourhood.
Miss Farncombe, while giving her evidence, after
glancing over the articles lying before her on the table,
exclaimed, " I don't see the forks or spoons." The
family plate was old and curious, and was much prized
on that account by its owners. The police of the dis-
trict have evinced much zeal and industry in tracing
the prisoners, and if the information they are under-
stood to have obtained, and which it would be at
present injudicious to refer to more explicity, can be re-
lied upon, much of the property may yet be recovered.
That the whole of the gang are not yet in custody is in-
ferred from the circumstance of Mrs. Morton, the wife
of the constable, overhearing a conversation between
three of the prisoners in their cells, in which one of
them expressed a hope that " they would send coun-
sel," and another replied that " they might do so at all
events."

After the termination of the above case the bench pro-
ceeded to investigate a case of burglary committed on
the night of the 31st of December, only twenty-four
hours previously to the Uckfield burglary, in which all
the pri>oners except Carter were implicated. The
offence was committed at Hartfield, in the White Hart
public-house, of which Elizabeth Kennard is the land-
lady. The property is not of any great value, but por-
tions of it were traced to the possession of the prisoners.
Another case, which is only yet in its preliminary stage,
is the finding of several boxes of linen-drapery, &c., at
a lonely cottage not far from Uckfield, in which the
uncle and aunt of the prisoner Elizabeth 011iver reside.
These persons are at present in custody, and the whole
are likely to turn out members of the same gang, one
portion plundering, and the other secreting and dispos-
ing of the booty. Their formidable and desperate cha-
racter may be easily judged of from the statement of the
