horrid oaths and imprecations, swore she would have
his heart's blood or his money, called him a son of
a —, and then stabbed him on the head with the scissors
and inflicted a dreadful wound. He bled like a horse and
fainted away.
Charles Stennar, a police constable, No. 439 ii, said that
he was called to an infamous house in Elbow-lane, and saw
the prisoner there. She was a most savage and disorderly
woman. She had the scissors in her hand brandishing
them. He took them from her. They were covered with
blood. The prosecutor had a cut hole in the temple, from
which the blood was flowing profusely, and he conveyed
him to a surgery.
Mr. Woolrych commented on the atrocious conduct of
the prisoner, who was a perfect fury. He sentenced her to
pay a fine of £5 for the assault, and in default to be com-
mitted for two months.
Ax INCORRIGIBLE SON. _.Thomas Melrose, an ill-con-
ditioned morose-looking boy, about 15 years of age, was
brought before Mr. Woolrych, on a charge of robbing his
parents, who are poor, but industrious and respectable per-
sons, dwelling at No. 2, smith's-place, Limehouse.
The parents of the prisoner said he had been continually
pilfering, that he was a constant source of trouble to them.
He had almost beggared them. He was vicious and idle.
He was apprenticed to the sea service, and invalided home,'
and would not go to sea again. His last pilfering exploit
was to steal a sovereign which his mother had deposited in
a drawer and was intended for the payment of a debt. The
want of it had put his parents to great inconvenience.
The boy, who treated the charge with great levity, roaxed
out that ho only took 16s. lid. last Saturday, and spent it.
The Mother—lt was a sovereign. I left the front room
for a minute or two, and when I came back he was gone
and the money too.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to one
month's imprisonment, with hard labour.

THE CHARGE OF MURDER AT CAMBRIDGE,The
inquiry into the circumstances attendant upon the death of
Harvey Rumbelow was proceeded with yesterday, the pri-
soner Pilson retaining the calm and collected demeanour
he displayed on the former examination. Mr. Carter, a
surgeon, stated his belief that the deceased was alive when

DEATH OF Mk. TENNYSON D'EYNCOURT.—We
regret to announce the death of the Right Hon. Charles
Tennyson D'Eyncourt, who was for 20 years the represen-
tative in the House of Commons of the large metropolitan
borough of Lambeth. The right hon. gentleman was born
in 1784, and was educated at St. John's College, Cambridge,
where he took his B.A. degree in 1805. He was called to
the bar by the Honourable Society of the Inner Temple in
1806, but never had any very extensive practice. Afte
having sat for Great Grimsby and Bletchingley, he was,
after the passing of the Reform Bill, chosen member for
Lambeth, which he represented uninterruptedly until 1852.
He was clerk of the Ordnance under Earl Grey's Govern-
ment from 1830 to 1832, sad at that time became a privy
councillor. In 1835 he assumed the name of D'Eyncourt
by Royal license, pursuant to his father's will, in order to
commemorate his descent from that family, and his repre-
sentation as co-heir of the Earls of Scarsdale and Barons
D'Eyncourt. The right hon. gentleman died onSunday last,
I at the residence of his son-in-law, J. Hinde Palmer, Q.C.,
Gloucester-place, Portman-square.
THE MURDER OF THREE CAILDREN IN LINCOLN-
suruE.—At the Lincoln Assizes, yesterday, Ann Wilson
was indicted for the wilful murder of Lucy Wilson, William
Wilson, and Elizabeth Wilson, her children, at Westwood
Side, in the parish of Haxey, on the 9th inst. The jury
acquitted the prisoner on the ground of insanity, and the
learned judge directed her to be detained in custody during
her Majesty's pleasure.
A HORSE AND CART IN THE TnAmEs.—Yester-
day, at noon, a man named Richard Webb, in the employ
of Mr. Howard, contractor, of Powis-street, Woolwich, was
in the act of loading a quantity of stone hitt, a cart from a
barge in the Thames, at the end of Warren-line, when the
water suddenly rose, in consequence, it is supposed, of the
swell arising from a passing steam vessel, and the vehicle,
with a valuable horse and the man at work, were carried
out into the Thames. With much exertion Webs was saved
in an exhausted state, but the horse, which i valued at
£4O, was drowned.
MURDER OF A POLICE CONSTABLE IN IRE-
LAND.—The dead body of a policeman named Lawler, a
member of the constabulary force, and lately stationed at
Bluebell six miles distant from Tullamore, was found on
Sunday afternoon, in a field three miles from his static*.
The poor fellow had been shot through the heart. No
cause is assigned for the murder, but it is supposed that
Lawler found some person shooting with unlicensed arms,
and that on his attempting to make an arrest the gun was
turned with fatal effect against himself. An inquest has
been held and a verdict of wilful murder returned ftgaiu,st
wino pen= or pergola =known.

DUBLIN, TUESDAY.
Baron Hughes opened the Commission in Armagh
yesterday. He congratulated the grand jury on
the tranquillity and prosperity of the country. He
and hip colleague had just come from three counties
on their circuit, in one of which the calendar did
not present a single prisoner for trial. In the
other two there was but one for each. Armagh
was not so free from crime, but it presented a
favourable contrast to what it did at the last Spring
Assizes. His lordship then referred to the parties
charged with the violation of the Processions Act
on the 12th of July. As I anticipated some days
ago, the Attorney-General has abandoned the pro-
secutions in the cases arising out of the Derryma-
cash riots. The traversers had pleaded " Guilty"
to the minor offences, and the Crown entered a nolle
prosequi with reference to the more serious charges.
The Attorney-General expressed the satisfaction
which he felt in common with every person of well.
regulated mind at the peaceable state of the pro-
vince during the present month, which presented a
pleasing contrast to the corresponding period in
former years.
The trial of the action for libel brought by the
Rev. Patrick Lavelle against Lord Oranmore com-
menced at the Galway Assizes, yesterday, before
Baron Fitzgerald and a special jury. The court
was surrounded at an early hour by ladies and gen-
tlemen anxious to obtain admittance. The plaintiff
has specially retained Mr. Butt, Q.C., and the de-
fendant Mr. Whiteside, Q.C. The alleged libel
was contained in a letter published by Lord Oran-
more. The plaintiff's case closed yesterday. The
damages were laid at £2,000.
The ages of the Irish prelates are beginning to
excite a lively interest in ecclesiastical circles. Ac-
cordingly the Irish Ecclesiastical Gazette has pub-
lished them. They are as follows ;—Armagh, 88 ;
Dublin, 74 ; Cashel, 78 ;* Killaloc, 77 ; Meath, 75 ;
Limerick, 75 ; Tuam, 69 ; Derry, 68 ; Ossory, 67 ;
Silmore, 60; Down, 52; Cork, 47.
The Town Council of Belfast have agreed to a
memorial to the Lord-Lieutenant to appoint a local
Recorder for the town of Belfast. The Northern
whig says that since the abolition of the Manor
Courts, without providing a substitute, the condi-
tion of the Quarter Sessions Court has been an
obstructive grievance such as no town but Belfast
would have endured. The Town Council have
voted £2OO towards the Recorder's salary.
