their greatest enemies. He hopel soon to hear of an

tion taken, and they must be discharged.

HAMMERSMITH.—THE CHARGE OP ATTEMPTING
TO MURDER AN INFANT.—The young woman, Kaiak
Osman, who was charged at this court, on Monday,
with attempting to murder her newly-born male child,
whose life was preserved under the most miraculous cir-
cumstances, was again brought before Mr. Ingham for
re-examination.

The prisoner still carried the child in her arms, and
was apparently very attentive to it.
Mr. Ingham said he could not go on any further with
the case at present, as he should like to have all the per-
sons in the house before him. The case had assumed a
very important aspect, and he should like to hear all the
evidence that could be procured.
Mr. Day wished to know if it was necessary to have
Mre. South present, as that lady was near her confine-
ment ? She did not know anything about the matter,
as she was totally ignorant of the prisoner being preg-
nant.

Mr. Ingham said he was sorry, but under the circum-
stances he thought he could not dispense with the ser-
vices of Mrs. South.

The prisoner was then remanded until Tuesday nexi,
and summonses were issued for the attendance of the
witnesses.

The prisoner was then locked up without making any
observation whatever to the charge.
