state of delirium tremens. To get drink you have
nearly, starved your children, and when, while under
the pangs of hunger, they steal from you, you ill-
treat them. Drink has with you destroyed the
natural feelings of a moth er for her offspring. You
have neglected them in every way.
Prisoner (sobbing)—l ,vill never set my foot
within the door of a publi 3-hduse again.
Mr. D'Eyncourt—For the next six months as-
suredly you will not, for I shall send you to the
House of Correction with hard labour for this
assault upon the little boy. Probably you may not
live to come out of prison ; should it be otherwise,
I trust you may be in some measure a better woman.
Prisoner—Oh, do not ; pray do not send me to
prison.
In this state she was removed to the cells.

CLERKENWELL. THE STRIKE. William 1
Perham, one of the delegates of the Masons' Com-
mittee, appeared before Mr. Corrie in answer to a
summons which charged him " that he did On the
Ist day of October, in the parish of Clerwenwell,
unlawfully by threats and intimidation, and by mo-
lesting and obstructing William Jocelyn and others,
then being workmen hired and employed in their
trade and business by Messrs. Piper and Son, en-
deavour to force the said William Jocelyn and
others to depart from their hiring and employment,
contrary to the statute," &c.
Mr. Mullins appeared for the prosecution, and
Mr. Roberts for the defence.

The court was crowded by workmen and others
Lnterested in, the question of the strike, and when

the case was calla. on,
Mr. Roberts said he had to make an application
for the postponement of the summons. He had be-
fore been engaged for the working classes in ques-
tions of this sort, and he had been telegraphed for
to attend this case, and did not arrive in town until
Saturday night at ten, when he saw the parties at
his hotel. From what he was then informed it ap-
peared that 20 men arrived from Plymouth on the
Ist of October, and on the night of that day these
men came in contact with the defendant, and were
spoken to.. The question would be whether that
was a molestation or an obstruction. Some of these
men remained in London, but the larger portion
went back to Plymouth by the persuasion of the
persons whom they met, and those that remained
were persuaded by the employers. Those men
that remained in London he had no hope would
speak the truth, and therefore it was necessary
that the men who had gone back should be brought
up as witnesses. He foun d that no train went through
to Plymouth on a Sunday, but the men were sent
for, and would arrive in town to-morrow
morning. It was under these circumstances
that he had to ask for the case to be adjourned until
to-morrow (this day.)
Mr. Mullins said that the Strike Committee haA
sent pickets down to Plymouth to pick up evidence,
but they did not know who these witnesses would
be. He could not attend to-morrow, or any day
this week, as on two of the days he had similar
cases to attend to. He had no objection to the
case being adjourned until Moiday next.
Mr. Corrie, in adjourning the case until that day,
said it was better that it should be so, so that not a
shadow of suspicion could be raised.

struck ?

at him, which struck him on his head. He fell, and
got up, but again fell. He was quite insensible

The inquest on the body of the unfortunate
woman, Mrs. Emily Harris, who destroyed herself
and her two children, at Worcester, by drowning
in the River Severn, under very painful circum-
stances, was concluded before 11Ir. P. Hughes,
deputy coroner, at the Anchor Inn, on Friday,
when the jury returned the following verdict
That the deceased came to her death by drowning
herself in the River Severn, being at the time in a
state of temporary insanity caused by the brutal
treatment of her husband and his sister; and the
jury severely censure the mother-in-law of the de-
ceased for her conduct towards her, and express
their dissatisfation at not having medical testimony
to guide them." This concluded the inquest, and
on the mother-in-law leaving the house she was
followed by a crowd of persons, who again gave
vent to their indignation by hissing and hooting at
her until she took shelter in the cottage of a friend
in the Bath-road. The remains of Mrs. Harris
were interred in the New Cemetery on Sunday
afternoon, the mournful ceremony being witnessed
byi large numbers of persons. As an expression of
sympathy and mark of respect to the bereaved
parents, the corpse was followed to the grave by
about eighty of the operatives at Messrs. Kerr and
Co.'s manufactory, who subscribed liberally towards
the expenses, as well as provided funds for the
payment of the men who searched for the body.
Harris was brought before the bench on Friday
to answer the charge of assaulting his de-
ceased wife, which had been brought against
him. Mr. Clutterbuck, who appeared for the friends
of the ikeeaied (Mrs. Harris), stated that her friends
wished to vindicate her character fram the aspersions
which had been thrown upon it. The whole of the
evidence, he said, went to show that the deceased
was an affectionate wife and mother, and of a for-
• giving temper. That the evidence proved, and the
friends wished it to go forth to the public. Mr.
Hopkinson, father of the deceased Mrs. Harris, was
t hen called, and said he had not seen his daughter for
three weeks before the unfortunate affair. He had
kept away from the house on account of the mother
and sister of Harris, and the language that was used
there being of such a dreadful kind. He then alluded
. to the circumstances of. the money Harr' s was getting
per week, notwithstanding which he pawned the
things out of the house. He had pawned four dresses,
his wife's ring, and other things belonging to her,
leaving her with only the things she stood up in.
Other evidence was given, and the chairman, after
an impressive address to Harris, O.— prisoner, in
which he alluded to the way in which h 3 had
brought himself into nis present position, and the
lamentable effect of his conduct, which had deprived
him of an affectionate wife and two children, sen-
tenced him to three months' imprisonment for the
assault on the wife.
