NORTHERN CIRCUIT.-YORK, July 18.
THE HULL MURDER.

Thomas Kirkwood, aged 30, was indicted for the
wilful murder of Elizabeth Ann Parker, at Hull,
on the 23d of April last.
It appeared from the opening statement of the
learned counsel for the prosecution, and from the
evidence of the witnesses called by him, that the
prisoner, who is a soldier belonging to the 29th
Regiment, was in April last on furlough at Hull,
and went first to stay with his sister, a Mrs. Todd,
at Hull, and afterwards lodged with a person
named Taylor. While staying with his sister he
made the acquaintance of the deceased, Mrs. Eliza-
beth Ann Parker, a young widow, who lived with
her mother, Mrs. Sleight, and stayed at the house
of Mrs. Sleight. A rumour having reached them
that he had overstayed his leave of absence, they
got rid of him, and he then went to lodge with
Taylor. He continued to call at Mrs. Sleight's,
and on the morning of the 23d of April he went
there as early as eight o'clock, and remained till
about eleven, talking with Mrs. Parker. At eleven
he went out to a neighbour's named Burnham, and
asked for a pipe, and then went back to Mrs.
Sleight's. There he bade goodbye to Mrs. Parker
and gave her a kiss, and suddenly put his arm
round her neck and cut her throat with a razor.
Mrs. Burnham heard her name called twice,.
and then a cry of murder, and on looking out
eo
her door saw the prisoner and Mrs. Parker
scuffling together, she having her hand on his
shoulder, and he attempting get_
away.
Mrs. Parker was covered with blood, andshe saw
the prisoner make his escape from her and run
away. On going to Mrs. Parker she was found
with a deep wound at the side of her neck, which
bled profusely, two large veins having
been divided.
Before she died Mrs. Parker made a declaration
that the prisoner called at eight o'clock that morn-
ing, and sat talking for three hours. She had no

ELKERTON RECTORY: 'being
Part the
Second of Twenty Years in the Church.
By the Rev. JAMES PYCROFT, B.A.
" The refined drollery and quiet satire which runs through
the narrative remind one of Sidney Smith. Few absolute
novels are half su captivating; we earnestly recommend it."
—St. James's Chronicle.

"The cheerfulness of an educated and well-balanced mind
throws a genial light and warmth over the whole book, and
senders its perusal no less attractive than suggestive and im-
proving. We have seldom laid down any work with so lively
a feeling of sympathetic esteem towards its author." —The

of their late members recently deceased under very
melancholy circumstances. It is a generous tribute

in effect which is about to be offered to his memory

by the friends and admirers of a young man of
letters suddenly carried off by a swift disease in the

midst of his honourable toils and in the plenitude
of his intellectual powers—a tribute of a
substantial kind proffered (as he himself
could best have wished) to his lamenting
relict and his three little orphan children.
It vial be yet fresh in the general recollection that
the departed writer—the late ROBERT BROUGH—
died so abruptly and unexpectedly, that his decease
occurred during a casual journey to the north of
England, we believe to his birthplace: His demise
was so wholly unlooked for that no provision what-
ever appears to have been made for his young widow
and their almost infant children—a circumstance
the less surprising seeing that the young father
and husband himself was struck down by death
so very prematurely. The sympathy excited by this
melancholy bereavement of the widow and orphans
of ROBERT BROUGH has been at once and on
all hands proved with affecting earnestness among
the mass of the dead litterateur's fellow labourers
in literature. Striking evidence of this will be
found in the very announcement already referred to
as given elsewhere in to-day's impression of The
Sun—in which announcement will be discerned so
many tokens of ROBERT BROUGH'S appreciation by
so very many of his gifted contemporaries. The
general committee acting upon this occasion will be
there seen to number no less than seventy-four
names honourably, some of them resplendently, dis-
nguished in art and literature. At the head of the

KENSINGTON-GARDENS.

Yesterday a numerous deputation, headed by
Lord Enfield, M.P., Sir John Shelley, M.P., and
Mr. Edwin James, M.P., from the vicinity of Ken-
sington and Baysr,water M.P., , wait upon the Right
Hon. W. Cowpe Chief Commissioner of
Public Works, to present. a memorial, signed by
1,500 inhabitants of the districts mentioned, pray-
ing that the new horse road and carriage drive
through Kensington-gardens may be immediately
abolished, and the gardens restored to their original
state.

Lord ENFIELD, in introducing the deputation,
stated that the experience which the inhabitants of
Kensington had when, in consequence of the Great
Exhibition of 1851, a road was made temporarily
through Kensington-gardens, had convinced them
of the danger which would result to the lives
and limbs of pedestrians, and more especially
children, were this new road in connection with
the ride at Rotten-row to be permitted to be con-
tinued. He had ridden over the ground en the pre-
vious day for the purpose of forming his own judg-
ment, and he was firmly convinced that it was not
only an infringement on the rights of the public,
who had
for many years had the opportunity of
enjoying Kensington-gardens as a place of recrea-
tion, but absolutely dangerous. He begged to re-
mind the right hon. gentleman that these encroach-
ments upon the comforts of the People ought not to
be made recklessly, and that if they were there
would in all probability be great public demon-
strations and excitement in the matter. Indeed,
he could assure the Hon. Chief Commissioner that
he believed he had but little support in either House
of Parliament upon the point, and therefore he
hoped to see the road abandoned, and Kensington-
gardens at once reclaimed. (Loud cries of " Hear,
hear.")
Mr. R. GURNEY then read the memorial, and
said it had been signed with the utmost alacrity by
1,500 persons of all ranks in two days, and, if they
had only made the matter more public, the signa-
tures would have been multiplied tenfold. Not
only were the beautiful flower-beds destroyed, but

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special

POLAND.

KIEN, June 23.—Our provincial elections began
on the 17th inst. The Governor•Genei al, Prince
Wassiltchikoff, inaugurated them by a speech, in
which he endeavoured to make the assembly of the
nobility perceive the impropriety of their present-
ing to the Emperor addresses similar to those for-
warded to him by the provinces of Volhynia and
Podolia. These addresses petitioned his Majesty
to allow the Polish language to be used in the
schools and local tribunals, to suppress the obsta-
cles imposed on the exercise, of the Catholic reli-
gion, and to replace the election of judicial func-
tionaries on the same footing as in the other pro-
vinces of the empire inhabited by populations of
purely Russian origin. The Governor-General re-
marked that these addresses remained unansweted,
and dissuaded his hearers from following a like
example.
The Governor's advice was not listened to. The
assembly of the nobility, strictly confining itself
within legal limits, began at its first session, and

minority, a Russian employe, who declared his vote
aloud in a spirit of bravado, was expelled from the
Chamber by his own compatriots and others who
were present, amid general indignation. It
is
thought that he will not enter the Assembly again.
After agreeing to the address, the nobilitypro-
ceeded to the election of employes, and, having the
law on their side, also nominated the officers ofjus-
tice, the nomination of whom by the Government
constitutes an act of usurpation and flagrant ille-
gality on the part of the administrative authorities.
The plan of a Provincial Agricultural Society
has been submitted by the Governor for the approba-
tion of the Emperor; but the privilege of calling
together committees has been erased from its
statutes.

very much without their host. The time they have
surrendered will be wasted. That very small
minority which is so determined in its obstruc-
tion to the India Forces Bill already sees an
opportunity for spending a few evenings in divi-
sions upon repeated motions for adjournment.
Surely the Government does not prefer this unpro-
fitable expenditure of time to the labour of passing
a really creditable bill. We cannot suppose that
they prefer to the English Bankruptcy Bill that
Irish Tenure Bill, which, if passed, must take as
much time as might have sufficed for the measure
they have sacrificed. We do not accuse them of
the cruelty of washing to destroy that one jack
snipe of the great Irish preserves, that convenient
bird al way readys to be flushed, which has already
afforded game through so many sessions, and
which no one desires to see popped off. We
cannot imagine that they intend to facilitate the
perpetration of that gross job of the metropolitan
members, and to give time for the huddling
through of the Metropolitan Board of Works
Bill, the tyrannical powers of which Sir G. Lewis
vainly attempted to expose to a thin, impatient,
and carefully packed house. A Bill for the Repeal
of the Act of Succession might, we believe, slip
through in the ruck just now, as may readily be
exemplified to any person's satisfaction who will
look at the clauses of this impudent measure, and
then remember that, voluminous as it is, it passed
through committee in one sitting, and without
examination. The time which mast now necessarily
be expended in stoppir.g this bill might have passed
a hundred clauses of the Bankruptcy Bill. That the
London Corporation Bill should be given up was
a matter of course ; that the Indian Army Bill
must be passed is, pace Mr. Horsman, as obvious a
necessity ; but we very much doubt whether Lord
Palmerston will find that the public generally will
be satisfied with his choice of " the victims already,
sacrificed on the altar,of necessity." The abandon-
ment of this Bankruptcy Bill is the capital disgrace
of the session.—Times.

THE MYSTERIOUS MURDER NEAR FROME.
The Sherborne Journal of yesterday says :—" There is
nothing fresh relative to this horrible affair. The detective
has entered upon his difficult—almost hopeless—task. The
girl has returned to Mr. Kent's, having been persuaded to
do so, we believe, by one of the Magistrates. She told
them that the child being in her charge when it was mur-
dered, she considered herself in some measure responsible
for it, and was anxious to do her part, to detect the mur-
derer. She was also afraid if she went home that her
motives might be misconstrued. Up to the present hour
this most revolting deed of darkness remains wrapped in
elocurity."

On Monday courts-martial were held on board
the flag-ship Impregnable, 104, in Hamoaze, on
John Roberts and Enos Dyer, able seamen, and
Henry Schilling and Henry Cocking, ordinary
seamen, belonging to the screw steam-ship Orion,
91, Capt. John B.Frere, for insubordination. Capt.
A. C. Key, C. 8., presided. John Roberts was
charged with having, on the 4th inst., refused to
scrub a hammock, and, when brought before Com-
mander Baker, of continuing to refuse, and of say-
ing " that he and others agreed to do no more
work ;" and, when brought before Capt. Frere, of
still persisting and saying, "He didn't care a
for all the captains and admirals in the service."
The prisoner denied having used this language, but
pleaded " guilty" in other respects, and was sen-
tenced to receive 50 lashes, to be imprisoned and
kept to hard labour for two years, and then to be
dismissed the service. Henry Cocking, charged
with the same offence, with the exception of the
bad language, pleaded "guilty," and sentenced to
receive 50 lashes and be imprisoned 18 months.
The other two pleaded " guilty," and were sen-
tenced to receive 50 lashes and be imprisoned 12
months.

• The paddle-wheel steam-tender Avon, G. Day
second master commanding, got up steam on Mon-
day in Hamoaze and proceeded to Devonport dock-
yard, where she took on board Commander Paul,
assistant master attendant, and a party of riggers
and men from the ordinary, 47 in all, and left for
Pembroke to jury rig and navigate the screw steam-
sloop Pelican, 17, to Plymouth.
