The Awful Tragedy at Limehouse.

ADJOURNED CORONER'S INQUEST.
This day Mr. Richards, the deputy coroner for
East Middlesex, held an adjourned inquest at the
Salisbury Arms Tavern, Eastfield-street, Lime-
house, into the circumstances attending the death
of Agnes Oakes, aged 22 years, who was found dead,
with her throat cut, in the front room of a house
called Temperance Cottage, North-street, Lime-
house. The proceedings created the greatest inte-
rest, and crowds of people congregated outside the
inquest room.
Sarah Martin said that her dwelling
is facing the
front of the house where the occurrence took place.
At about ten minutes to two o'clock on the morn-
ing of the 24th of July she was awoke by screams
of " Murder," proceeding from Temperance Cot-
tage. Witness looked through the window, but
could not see anything. She heard some words,
and a female voice exclaim—" You old --
you are murdering me." She put the blind down
and went to bed again, and without disturbing her
husband. She was sure it was ten minutes to two.
Directly after she returned to her bed the church
clock struck two.

William Dunn, a rivetter, said that he knew
Wiggins, the accused man, and his late wife. lie
lived opposite to them. On the morning of the 24th
of July, at ten minutes to five o'clock, he was awoke
by loud cries of " Murder " proceeding from the
house No. 1, Temperance Cottages, opposite.
Witness opened his bedroom window, and he saw
Wiggins walking towards his house with his hand
on his neck. Witness said to him " Jack, what is
the matter ?" To which he replied, " She has cut
my own throat and her own too." Witness dressed
himself, and then raised an alarm.
The inquest was proceeding when we went to
press.

MR. CHARLES KEAN.—A favourable change has
taken place in the health of Mr. Charles Kean, who has
been for some time past on a visit at Court House, near
Taunton. He is suffering from a total prostration of the
nervous system, brought on by overwork and excitement.
The tenor Roger has returned to Paris from St.
Petersburg.
[ADVERTISEMENT.] Holloway's Pills.—Remedy and
Regimon.—The most serious subject on which man can
meditate is the maintenance of good health in himself and
in the dear ones around him. Whenever or wherever illness
assails us, it always sends before it unmistakeable symp-
toms of its approach ; subdue those by Holloway's correc-
tive and purifying medicine, aided by a plain, simple diges-
tive diet, and the attack, deprived of its powerful allies
within the body, passes harmlessly by. Pain, discomfort,
and danger are alike averted, and when epidemics rage
whole households are spared a mournful visitation. Dis-
ease is always occurring at all hours of the day, at all sea-
sons of the year; prudence therefore gives the warning to
keep this remedy ready to remove instantly defective ac-
tions.

We quote a few.—The Pope's health restored by Du Harry's
Food. Cure No. 68,413.—" Rome, July '2l, 186 G.—The health of
the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all
other remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's
Revalenta Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful
tit every meal. It has produced a surprisingly beneficial
effect on his health, and his Holiness cannot praise this
excellent food too highly." From the "Gazette du Midi."
