' John Beauchamp, 30, described as a publican, was in-
dicted for the wilful murder of his wife, Emma Charlotte
Beauchamp.
The prisoner was charged by a coroner's inquisition
with the offence of manslaughter only.
Mr. Robinson and Mr. Sumner conducted the prose-
cution ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Ballantine
and Mr. Parry.
From the opening statement of the learned counsel for
the prosecution, it appeared that the prisoner, who is
well knows as an expert cricket player, kept a public-
house at Chertsey, called the Coffee-house. He and his
wife had been married about seven years, and they had two
children ; and it would seem that they lived very unhap-
pily on account of the deceased being addicted to habits
of intemperance, and that frequent quarrels took place
between them on that account. On the Ist of February
the deceased went to visit her mother at Guildford, tak-
ing with her one child, and she 'returned home oh Sun-
day, the 3d, bringing with her a child that had been
stopping at her mother's, and leaving the one she had
taken with her in its place. It appeared that an arrange-
ment had been made between the prisoner and his wife
to go out to visit a neighbour in the afternoon, and the
prisoner went out some time about three o'clock, and
returned soon afterwards fur the purpose of fetching his
wife. At this time there was no one in the house but
the prisoner's child, a little girl, who acted as servant,
named Taylor, and the deceased wife. The latter Wa3
in the bed•reom of a lodger, and it appeared that the
prisoner went up to her there, and some little alter-
cation took place between them in the presence of the
girl above mentioned. The latter went dawn stairs,
and almost immediately afterwards she heard a scuffle
in the bed-room, and the deceased exclaimed twice,
" Don't, don't," and then all was quiet. Very soon
after this the deceased was found lying on the bed in an
insensible state, and she continued in that condition until
10 o'clock at night en the following Tuesday, when she
died. Upon a post-mortem examination it was found that
the deceased had received a severe blow under the left ear,
and on the opposite side of the head there was a bruise,
from which it was inferred that she had been knocked
down, and these injuries had, according to the opinion of
the surgeon, burst a blood-vessel, and occasione I an effu-
sion of blood upon the brain, and this was the cause of
death.
Mary Ann Taylor said—l was in the service of the
prisoner and his wife. The prisoner kept the Coffee-
house public-house at Chertsey. On Sunday, the 3d of
February, I was in the bed-room with my mistress, help-
in her to make the bed, about 3 o'clock in the atter-
soon. The prisoner had gone out, and he returned
shortly before 4 o'clock, and came into the bed-
iroom where I and the deceased were. The deceased
and I ware talking when the prisoner came in, and he
could hear what was said. My mistress was com-
plaining about some woman coming to the house, and
she ■aid she would not have her there, and if she did
come she would go back to her mother's again. When
the prisoner came into the bed-room, he asked his wife
what she had been doing all that time, and complained
that she was not ready to go. out. The deceased replied
that she had been washing glasses in the bar, and the
prisoner said that could not have taken her so long. I
then left the bedroom and went down stairs, and when ,

WORSHIP-STREET.—John Stuart and Thomas
llopkins, the latter of whom was stated to be a ticket-
of-leave convict, were placed at the bar for final exami-
nation, charged with having broken into and plundered
the premises of Mr. Robert Marshall, a silk manufac-
turer, in Spital-square.
The prosecutor stated that shortly after one o'clock
on the afternoon of Wednesday, the 20th ult., he left his
warehouse for a short time, according to his usual prac.
tice at that hour, after carefully locking the outer door,
which appeared in the same state of security on his re-
turn in three-quarters of an hour, but, on admitting him-
self with the key, be discovered that the premises had
been thoroughly ransacked during his absence, all the
drawers and boxes having been forced open, and that a
quantity of manufactured silk and velvet, of the value of
4001., bad been carried off by the thieves. A reward cf
501. had been subsequently offered for the detection of
the delinquents, which ultim defy led to the apprehen-
sion of the prisoners, but not the slightest vestige of the
stolen property had since been traced.
Thomas Levesque, a warehouseman employed at a
manufactory in Spital-square, stated that about ten
minutes before two o'clock on the afternoon in que-tion,
he saw two men stealthily emerge from the prosecutor's
warehouse, each of whom was carrying a bulky bag,
with which they proceeded to the corner of an adjoining
street, and having deposited the sacks in a light cart
which was waiting there in charge of a third man, they
drove rapidly off with the booty.
Three other persons, named Thomas Bowler, John
James, and Robert Dyer, gave corroborative evidence,
and positively identified the prisoners as the two men
referred to by the last witness, which they were en-
abled to do without hesitation, from having seen them
loitering about the neighbourhood at the same hour for
three weeks previous to the commission of the robbery.
Sergeant Jackson, of the II division, stated that, in
conjunction with Whicher, an active detective officer, he
succeeded in apprehending the prisoners in the Kings.
land road, and after lodging them in the cell at the
station-house, the prisoner Stuart was detected in the
act of tearing up some paper, the fragments of which
were collected and put together in the presence of the
prosecutor, who at once recognised it as a ticket bear-
ing the private mark, which had been attached to a por-
tion of the missing property.
The prisoners, who reserved their defence, under the
advice of Mr. Wontner, their solicitor, were ordered to
be committed for trial.

By the Vestry Clerk—lt was about 20 or 30 feet from
the shelf of the property-room in which the candle was
to the cci"ng.
By a Juror—Do you keep luCifcrs or wax tapers in
the carpenters' shop ?
Witness—No.

The insurance on the Pacific is ♦ery large, and the
amount on the ship is 600,000 dols.—half in the -United
States and half in Europe ; the freight money is in-
sured for 40,000 dole. Her cargo consisted of 600 or
700 tons, valued at 1,500,000 dole. ; most of this
was insured. The total insurance amounts to over
2,000,000 dole.

By a Juror—Did yon keep lucifers in nny plo.-e or
about you ?
Witness—Yep I kept my tapers in a tin-box about me.

. _ .
By a Juror—The only way a candle could be lit was
r-orn the gag, but when the gas was out he could light a
candle with the lacifers he carried in his pocket. When
Le left the property room he hung the key upon a nail,
but the firemen knew whera to find it.

Mr. LEWIN seconded the motion, which was negatived
after a few remarks from the Chairman.
The meeting then adjourned.

Benjamin Dallaston was recalled, and, in answer to
the Coroner, said the candle used by his son to light him
up stairs to the cArpenter's shop on the evening previous
was got from the property-room. He took it off the
eheif in the room—it was in a chamber candlestick. He
lit it himself from a candle which was on a chair near
the Bedford staircase, where one had been kept burning
ever since the gas had been removed. His son was with
him when he lit the candle, and after he had been done
with it he put it back in the prOperty room. He never
saw any lucifers used in the theatre. He never used any
himself. He did not know that Boulton had lucifers about
h;m. He never saw him with any. He did not notice
any lucifer struck that night.
By a Juror—After he had lit his candle from the one
near the Bedford staircase he left it burning as it was
usual. The reason that the candle was placed there
was in consequence of the removal of the gas from the
proscenium box for the purposes of Mr. Anderson.
By a Juror—He did not know he was doing any ir-
regular thing in using a candle. He thought it WAR
just as safe to take a candle as a lamp into a carpenters'
shop. Where he put the candle out was a light place.
It was a composition candle, and it would not give off
sparks.
By the Coroner—There had been some dispute about
the " lamp business." He believel about the expense,
but he did not know that any person had been discharged
in consequence of the dispute.
Frederick Vialls, a lad about fourteen, residing at 29,
Grove-place, Marylebone, stated that he was employed
at the theatre, and was there on Tuesday night, when
he was told to go home, but he went down stairs and
fell asleep. He was awoke by hearing the people call on
tire. He jumped up, took his coat and apron, and ran
out of the theatre.

I got as far as the tap-room, I heard the deceased call
oat, " Don't, dont." The taproom is under the bed-
room. I went into the yard and returned to the tap-
room, and then I heard a scuffling noise in the bed-room
where I had left the prisoner and the deceased, In a few
miantes the prisoner came down stairs, and he asked me,
and his child also, if we had, either of us, seen the de-
ceased drink any spirits, and we both told him we
had not. I had not seen th• deceased drink any spirits
that day, and she appeared to me to be the same as
usual, and not at all drunk. The prisoner then
told me twice not to go into the room where the de-
ceased was, and I went into my own bed-room, and,
while I was there, I heard a gurgling noise, which ap-
parently was made by the deceased. The prisoner then
went into the bed-room, where the deceased was, and
he remained there until Mr. and Mrs. Breakepear, two
persons who lodged in the house, came home. I went
to bed in my own room with the prisoner's child, who
usually slept with me, and, about 11 o'clock at night,
the deceased was carried into my room by the prisoner
and Mrs. Breakspear, and the child was taken away,
and the deceased was laid upon my bed. She was per-
fectly insensible. I was told to watch her during the
night. Mr. Breakspear asked the prisoner to send for
a doctor, but be refused, and said, "Oh no, she will be
better to-morrow." The deceased never spoke, but the
gurgling noise continued in her throat. When I went
down in the morning, the prisoner asked me how his
wife had been during the night, and I told him that
she bad been insensible, and about the gurgling in the
throat.

Mr. Sleigh said, on account of the serious nature of
the assault, be wished the magistrate to send the case t•
the sessions.

➢ir. Lewis wished the casa to be disposed of sum-
marily._

Mr. Bernard said he was a chiropodist in Regent-
street, living a short distance from Mr. Rends,ll, who
was in the same business. Each had a large brass plate
indicating his name and occupation. On Tuesday the
defendant came to his house armed with a whip, and
after a short parley, seized him by the hair of his head,
tore out some of his hair, and struck him repeatPdly on
the head and body with the whip. A. person by whom
the defendant was a companied prevented complainant's
wife from coining to his assistance. His hand was cut
by the whip, and hi; wife in attempting to assist him
was flogged unmercifully. Knew of no cause for the
assault.

Cross-examined—The defendant was a corn•cutter in
the Quadrant. Before he set up business there, persons
sometimes called at his house, mistaking it for the de-
fendant's, and he hail invited them upstairs to the con-
sulting•room. A person called the previous day, and
inquired for a Mr. Rendall ; and he replied that th•
scamp did not live there. Had also told people that
Mr. Rendall had gone to Scotland. There was another
Mr. Rendall in the street, who had gone to Scotland.
The offensive remarks were applied to that Mr. Rendall.
When the defendant called, he said, " Where is that
scoundrel 1" and then knocking his wife on one side, he
rusbed.upstairs to get at him. He was nearly stunned
by the violence he was subjected to, and he had not re-
taliated on the defendant. It was the butt end of the
whip with which he was struck.
Mrs. Bernard gave evidence similar to that of her
husband.

AN AVALANCHE ON THE ST. GOTHARD.-012 the 23d
ult, a train of 10 sledges was overtaken by an avalanche
on the St. Gothard. Fcs of the sledges were driven
down a precipice with all their passengers, only three
persons escaping—Prince Lebkowitz, his servant, and
one of the drivers. M. Fragnavi was not got oat until
he bad been lying for aboat 20 minutes, covered to the
depth of five feet.
The Bavarian Chambers have resolved that the Munich-
Saltzburg Railroad shall be built at the expense of the
State. The Railroad Committee of the Lower Chamber
proposed that the line should be conceded to a private
company, but the house refused to give its consent, and
empowered the Government to raise the 12,200,000f1,
which it is likely to cost.
[ADVERTISEMENT.J—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills
surpass all other Remedies for the Cure of Bad Legs._
Mr. James Heslop, weaver, of Galashiels, suffered se-
verely from a sore leg, and, notwithstanding he tried
everything that medical skill could devise, yet all was to
no purpose ; ne cure was effected until he made use of
Holloway's ointment and pills. These invaluable medi-
cines soon had the desired effect, for in a few weeks his
leg was completely cured, and he wishes publicity
given to the, fact tba*. others might derive the same benefit.

Professor Holloway's establishments, 244, Strand, Lon-
don., and 89, Maiden-lane, New York ; by A. Stampa,

Malta.

The Coroner said he was he did not know wha
the witness was summoned for.

Theophiles Cooper, connected with a weekly reli-
g'ous newspaper, stated that about three or four weeks
before the fire he saw a van loaded with carboys
of vitriol standing by the stage door in Hart-street.
'lsere was a tackle from the top of the theatre with a
pulley, and parties were eeidently engaged in taking it
to the tap of the theatre. He saw one taken up. He
went to the front of the van to see whether it wee
vitriol. and saw on the front of the van, "Electric Power
and Light Company." Another person was looking at
the cart, and he asked him what it was for.
The Coroner said the person whom he spoke to in the
street ; .ight have been misinformed, but he was quite
right in coming forward.
The witness proceeded to say that he was informed
it was to he used in the Professor's experiments. The
carboys had all the appearance of containing vitriol.
The Coroner said he thought it would be possible to
investigate this fact further. The person who was en.
gaged in putting the carboys to the top of the theatre
could be summoned. The evidence of the witness
stopped at that point.
Jacob Henry Burn, residing opposite the theatre, said
be saw the fire break out at 20 minutes pasi-, four. He
beard a conversation below his bed room, which he
thought was the maskers going home.. He got up and
pulled aside his window curtain, and he saw a rush of
flame from the carpenters' shop. It was a smokeless
flame. He bad no doubt that the flame was gas. He
believed that the gas had been turned on too full, and
had set fire to the scenery.
Peter Finlay son resided at 30, Bow-street, and was
employed by Mr. Anderson. He had not
done any work since the Thursday previoul to
the fire, but he had been to the theatre on
the Tuesday. He went there by appointment to see
Mr. Anderson about the model theatre he had been
making for him in the property carpenters'
shop. It was made of bits of pine and screws. He
used glue a week before, but no varnish. He had never
worked by or saw a candle in the theatre. When he was
at work he was close to Lenning. He never saw any vitriol
in the theatre.

Cross•examined—The noise I heard in the room ap-
peared to me like people fighting. It was not like the
noise of a person falling from the bed. A mug with
some gin ii it was found under my bed on the Mon-
day. The mug was one that was used by the de-
ceased The woman the deceased and I were talking
about when 'the prisoner came in found the mug and
the gin.
Mr. Breakspear, the person referred to, gave evidence
of a similar kind with regard to the condition of the de-
ceased when she came home.

Cross-examined--Did not see her husband kick the
defendant. But all three rolled down stairs together.
Mr. Morgan, surgeon--Examined the complainant,
and found severe bruises and a serious internal injury,
Mrs. Bernard was also very much injured.
Mr. Lewis said in such cases there was always consi-
derable exaggeration. It was in fact but another illus-
tration of the accuracy of the old adage, " Two of a
trade," &c. The parties lived near each other, carrying
on the same business, and this occasioned frequent mis-
takes on the part of customers, which led to the subse-
quent events. _ _

Mr. Witbell, a chemist at Chertsey, proved that about
4 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, the prisoner went to his
shop and asked him to go to see his wife, and he accom-
panied him home for that purpose. He found the de-
ceased lying on the bed on her back in a state of perfect
insensibility. Witness ordered hot water bottles to be
applied to her feet, and advised the prisoner to send for
a medical man.

Ou behalf of the defendant, Mr. Gowan, surgeon, maid
he feund an injury of the 184:on examining the defendant,
which injury had apparently proceeded from a kick.
A witness proved that when he called on Mr. Bernard
and asked for Mr. Kendall, the reply was, "No such -
scoundrel lived there." Went with the defendant to Mr.
Bernard's house for an explanation. Saw Mr. Bernard
kick Mr. Randall, and then Mr. Rendall struck com•
plainant with the lash of the whip, not the butt end. Did
not Flee Mr. Bernard struck, but saw Mr. Bernard strike
Mr. Randall. _ _ _ _

In cross-examination, the witness said that the pri-
soner appeared very much concerned at the state his wife
was in, and was very anxious that he should do what
he could toirelieve her. He had no aatkority to pre-
scribe for her, as he was only a chemist, and he recom-
mended him at once to send for a medical man.

medicine that I can safely say I have laid out upwards of a

in utter despair, and never expected to get over it, when I
was fortunate enough to become acquainted with your Bova-

a state of health which I long since despaired of attaining.

Several other witnesses having been examined,
Mr. Ballantine made a most earnest and able address
to the jury on behalf of the prisoner.
Mr. Justice Coleridge having summed up the whole
of the evidence in the most careful and impartial manner,
the jury, after a very short deliberation, found the pri-
soner guilty of manslaughter.
The learned Judge, on passing sentence, said that the
jury had come to the only conclusion it appeared to him
they could have arrived at in finding the prisoner guilty
of manslaughter, and he felt it his duty, under all the
circumstances, to order hira to be kept in penal servitude
for four years.
Thomas James Quick,, 15, and Charles Henry Quick,
12, two notorious young thieves, whose case has been
very recently reported, were found guilty of house-
breaking.
They were sentenced to be imprisoned for a month in
the House of Correction, and to be once flogged, and
then to be Beat to a reformatory school for fire years.

Mr. Bingham thought that the defendant had been re•
ceived with a kick, And had retorted by giving the kicker
a too severe horse-whipping. He should send the case to
the sessions.

LAMBETH.—Luc?/ Contsable, who had been in cus-
tody for upwards of a fortnight on a charge of wilfully
inflicting a wound upon her throat and hand, under cir-
cumstances already reported in The Sun, was brought up
for final examination.

Sergeant Coppin informed Mr. Elliott that he had no
more evidence to offer, and the prisoner was ordered to
be discharged. She seemed delighted at being restored
to liberty, and hurried out of the dock to join her friends,
who were present for the purpose of taking her back to
Tunbridge, to which she belongs.

The Coroner wished to ask Mr. Anderson a question
respecting the vitriol.
Mr. Anderson, in answer, stated that at the Lyceum
Theatre he had the electric light nn the pediment of the
theatre, and the company applied for permission to exhi-
bit the light on the top of Covent-garden. 6ulphuric
