plainant, to prefer a charge against a broker of buying
forcibly entered her room late at night, dragged her out
of bed, beaten her severely, and finally turned her into
the streets with scarcely any clothes to cover her. She
also charged him with stealing a brass candlestick from
her room. Both charges, however, appeared so utterly
unfounded that the magistrate dismissed them with a
reprimand to the complainant.
This morning sihe WII4 pieced in the dock on a charge
of perjury, and from the evidence called it appeared teat
the prisoner being a woman of disreputable habits, her
landlord determined to get rid of her, and accordingly
employed Mr. Lewis tor that purpose. After several
attempts and stratagems, Mr. Lewis succeeded, on the
occasion in question, in serving the regular notice upon
her in her own room, at which the prisoner, enraged,
put her head out of window and raised the whole neigh-
bourhood with her cries of murder, and finally brought
the charge so summarily disposed of yesterday.
It Was stated by the police that the prisoner when in
custody, last night, attempted to commit suicide by
strangling herself with her garter.
The MAGISTRATE ordered her to be remanded until
Tuesday next.

WORSHIP-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
Henry Gregory was charged b-fore Mr. Hammill wi h
having caused the death of David Richard Dutton, under
circumstances detailed in the following esidence.
James Halton sworn—l am a cabinetmaker, and live
itt 117, Long-alley, Bishopsgate; last evening, Tuesday,
[ was in the parlour of the George and Dragon, public-
house, Hoxton-market, when I heard a disturbance in
the skittle-ground. The window of the parlour looks into
the ground, and I saw the prisoner and the potboy
sparring. The deceased and several other persons were
present. I think the prisoner was at that time in fun;
five minutes afterwards I heard high words pass between
141!) prisoner and deceased. Deceased called prisoner a
thief; prisoner then pulled off his shirt, and both partit 8
stood up to fight. I think they fought six rounds. I
ear the last blow given ; it was struck by the
prisoner on the side of the deceased's head, or
throat; deceased staggered, and was falling when I
caught him in my arms. I said to prisoner, " You have
killed the poor fellow." Prisoner muttered something,
and ran away through the back door. Deceased did not
revive, and I ran for a medical man; when I returned I
think the man was dead.
By Mr. LlAmmux—The deceased never spoke after
the last blow was struck by prisoner.
Several other witnesses spoke to the same facts. The
Prisoner was taken into custody a short time afterwards
while running down Pitfield-street, Holton. He did not
deny the charge, and made no resistance.
Yr. HAMMILL —Have you anything to say now,
prisoner? Prisoner—Nothing.
Mr. Haimmu,L—You aro remanded till Wednesday
next.
The prisoner was then removed.

SALE OF THE NANCY DAWSON.—OH Thursday
the Royal Thames Yacht Club schooner yacht Nancy Daw-
son was put up to public auction at Lloyd's. The Nancy
Dawson, irrespective of her sailing capabilities, gained great
aaMutation owing to her late owner's (Mr. R. Sheddon) gal-
effort in his little craft to ascertain the fate of Sir John
Franklin, and who, whilst cruising in search, died on board,
et Mazatlan, on the 16th November, 1849. She was built at
"Port, by Campar, in 1849. She is 160 tons, and is the
only yacht that ever rounded Point Barrow, or circumnavi-
gated the globe. There was a full attendance, and after a
!Ipirited bidding she was knocked down for 1,6201., or more
tiaall 101. per ton.

THE LATE FIRE AT RICHMOND.—It was publicly
announced from the pulpit on Sunday morning last by the
priest at the Roman Catholic chapel in Richmond, tha he
-
Iles under great obligations, not only to the Roman Catholic,
but also to the Protestant portion of the residents, for the
peat zeal which they exhibited on the occasion of the late
disastrous fire, in rendering assistance and ultimately effect-
ing the preservation of the building from destruction with
'which for a long time it seemed inevitably threatened. The
rey. gentleman stated that he should not even be satisfied
With this public announcement to his own congregation and
the strangers present, but that he should feel it his duty to
return his personal thanks to the individuals who had
charitably rendered such valuable assistance on the occasion.
DEBUT OF THE "BLOOMER" COSTUME IN BELFAST.
.--To the infinite surprise of many, and the amusement of
more, three ladies, apparently from their ages, a mother and
her daughters, made their appearance on the afternoon of
Sunday se'nnight, on that very public and often thronged
Promenade, the portion of the Carrickfergus road between
estleton and Parkmount, in full " Bloomer " costume.
eThose who had not heard of the American revolutien in.
"thions, knew not what to make of the singular and thea-
trical looking compound of the attire of both sexes which
Was paraded before them, in a manner as unfeminine as the
style of the dress itself. Others, and these most numerous,
expressed an opinion of the reverse of complimentary to the
rank and character of the ladies, identifying them with per-
sons whose overdressed gaiety of appearance in public stamps
the class to which they belong. The " Bloomer," in each
ease, consisted of a satin visite of cerulean shade, an inner
tunic of the same material, but of a different tint, and loose
Muslin trousers, fastened considerably above the ankle—
somewhat after the manner of those worn by Turkish belles.
We heard that the ladies were the wife and daughters of the
captain of a merchantman, at present on a voyage. The
Parties got into a railway carriage at Greencastle station.—
