POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—May 6.

CLERKENWELL.—DARING ATTEMPT AT MURDER.
—Samuel Adams, aged 35, a dirty, dissipated, ferocious
looking man, described on the charge-sheet as a shoemaker,
residing at Mary-street; Kingsland-road, was placed at the
bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt charged with maliciously cutting
and wounding, with intent to do grievous bodily. harm,
Martha Pago, at Howard-road, Hornsey.
Police-sergeant Bovis, 1 N, said the injured woman was
not able to attend to-day, and he had, therefore, to ask for
a remand. The injured woman is the prisoner's sister-in-
law. He then handed in the following certificate :
" German Hospital, Dalston, May 6, 1859.
" Martha Page, 24 years of age, was admitted into this
hospital yesterday afternoon, suffering from a wound in the
left hip, extending about two inches in length through the
skin and muscles. Although there are no important or-
gans injured, the patient being very exciteable is now in a
feverish state.
"Dr. C. TROMMAUN, Resident Medical Officer."

Police-constable Bolton, 466 N, said that on the previous
afternoon he was in Howard-road, when he heard cries of
" Police" and " Murder," and was called to take the pri-
soner into custody for stabbing a young woman. The fe-
male was in a fainting state, and said she was wounded in
her side. When he took the prisoner into custody he was
told the charge, and said nothing. He searched the prisoner
and found upon him a sharp knife, such as are generally
used by shoemakers. The knife, which was concealed, had
apparently been lately sharpened.

Mrs. Elizabeth Reynolds, 96, West-street, Bermondsey,
said she yesterday went to visit a friend in Kingsland, at
the house of whom the injured woman was acting in the
capacity of nurse. She (witness) asked her the way to
Abney Park, and sha offered to show her the way. Before
they started, the prisoner came to the door, saw the in-
jured woman, detained her some time, and had some very
angry words with her. She (witness) left the house with
Mrs. Page, but they had only proceeded a very short
distance when the prisoner came up, made use of some
violent expression, and made three stabs at her with a
sharp shoemaker's knife. After he had done this, the pri
goner, with an oath, said he would murder her, if not then
at some other time. The prisoner wanted the injured
woman to tell him where his wife was, but she refused,
saying that he was a very bad man, that he had been parted
from her some time, and that he was always getting drunk.
The prisoner, who treated the matter with the greatest
indifference, declined to say anything in his defence, or to
ask the witnesses any questions.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week, and
said the case would ultimately be sent to the Old Bailey.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

TILE LATE ATTEMPT TO MURDER A HUSBAND.-

Mary Ann Pocher was brought before Mr. Bingham for
final examination, charged with stabbing William Pother,
her husband, with a sharp-pointed table-knife, with intent
to kill or do some grievous bodly harm.
The evidence on the previous examination was the tes-

timony of another lodgOr in the same house (Frederick
Burn, 32, Silver-street, Golden-square), who, coming home
at a quarter past one a.m., let the husband in, when each
went to his respective room. In two minutes after, hear-
ing angry words overhead, he went to his own door, and
then, from the upstairs landing, heard loud cries of
Help! police ! I'm stabbed !" Taking his light, he pro-
ceeded to the spot, and there saw the husband in a
crouching position at the open door, his hands to his head,
and his face deluged with blood. The prisoner stood
within the apartment, offering no sort of help ; and the
wounded man telling him he had been stabbed three times
by the prisoner, desired she should be given in charge, and
expressed a fear that he should bleed to death. Witness
procuring a policeman, the wounded man was conveyed to

covered with blood, near which a man's hat lay crushed.
The prisoner seemed to feel her position acutely, and was
allowed a seat in the dock.
Tho husband, whose head and right eye were bandaged
over, and who was evidently suffering from illness and de-
bility, said he had been married to the prisoner eight years,
and they, had lived an unhappy life together. He had been
for some time a messenger at Verey's. She had stabbed
him once before, but he forgave her. (He here corrobo-
rated the statement of the witness Burn.) On going into
his room he found his wife on the bed. There was no light
except a reflection from a gas-light in the street opposite.
The prisoner began to upbraid him for being out so late,
and said it was four o'clock. Addressing her by her Chris-
tian name, he told her it was only one. She had risen, and
he then received a blow on the head which knocked him on
to the bed. This was quickly followed up by a second blow
on the face, and he directly felt the blood trickling down,
when he rushed to the door and called for assistance. He
was soon after taken to the hospital, where he had been
ever since. On the night in question he had been having a
glass or so, but knew well what he was about.
Mr. James Colton Arnold house-surgeon at Charing-
cross Hospital, described the wound, which directly
above was
above the right eyeball, was three-quarters of an inch in
length and the eighth of an inch in depth, and could have
been inflicted from such an instrument as the knife pro-
duced. There was profuse hemorrhage.
Rough, 178 C, said the prisoner remarked when taken
into custody that she was sorry she had not done for him.
She was- quite sober.
The prisoner, who is about 40 years of age, when asked,
after the usual caution, if she wished to say anything, burst
