with coals for that company's steamer City of Man-
chester for Calcutta. The Bosphorus left St. Vin
cent on the 10th ult., and has returned home
chiefly under canvass. The steamer City of Man-
chester, with the Ist Dragoon Guards and 150 men
of the 54th Regiment, in all 700 men, reached St.
Vincent on the 6th, after a rapid run of 10 days
from England, the fastest passage yet made by any
transport, and, after coaling, lett for Ceylon direct
on the Bth ult. Up to the 10th Sept. no other
transports had called at St. Vincent.

Coinmander R. Studdert, R.N., has received the
silver medal awarded by the Board of Trade for
gallant conduct in saving life at sea.
Mr. Thompson has been appointed Master of
Greenwich Hospital.
The following appointments were made yesterday
at the Admiralty:—

The Rev. J. Milner, chaplain, to the Welling-
ton ; W. P. Braund, master, to the Urgent ; 0. D.
Steel, staff surgeon, to the Portsmouth division of
Royal Marines ; H. M'lnvoy, midshipman, to the
Diadem.

swear in a jury, open the proceedings, and allow
them to view the body before interment, after
which he would adjourn the inquest to next
Tuesday.
There is a good deal of speculation in the neigh-
bourhood as to what could have formed the motive
for such an unnatural murder, supposing the
suspicions against the prisoner to be well-founded ;
but on this point very little has transpired, except
that there had been a good deal of hostility between
the father and son owing to the latter having
attempted to get Colonel Davenport, the landlord,
to transfer the farm from the father to him, and
his constant interference with the management
of it.

body, before her husband, who was in the rear of
premies, could interfere fot her protection. So
much ill-usage had she been subjected to that blood
flowed in quantity from her left ear and mouth, in-
dependent of which it had occasioned her to mis-
carry.

A- certificate from a surgeon named Edmunds,
put in by Inspector Constable, H division, fully
corroborated the complaint of ie poor woman, who
said her husband was in court attending to his duty
as a police-constable.
Collins, 49 11, then swore that at the time in
question he was in the kitchen of his house pre-
paring for attendance at the station-house, when
he hoard screams, ran to the street door, and saw
his wife as described by her; he felt justified in
using his staff, which fortunately was near at hand,
upon the head of the assailant, and cut it open, as
was now apparent.
In answer t 3 the charge,

The accused said, with all apparent truthfulness,
"Every word the good lady has spoken is utterly
false."

Mr. Hammill observed that he must remand the
prisoner, as the asQault could not possibly be under
the circumstances immediately dispo3ed of.

WESTMINSTER. —Francis Bradley, a boy only
11 years of age, was charged with felony.
Mr. James Graham, schoolmaster at the Park
Chapel school, Park-street, Chelsea, said that
during the last few weeks many books, some of
them classical works, value 4 or ss. each, had been
missed from the school. Every effort was made to
detect the offender, but in vain, and it was at
length determined to visit the numerous second-
hand book shops in the neighbourhood, with a
view of discovering the property. At length a great
number of them were found at the shop of John
Harris, 2, Globe-street, King's-road, Chelsea, when
it turned out that he had one at a time purchased
theta of the prisoner at 2d. a piece.

Sergeant Brien of the B division pointed out the
excellent condition and value of some of the books,
and added that the very moment Harris purchased
the books for the trifling amount stated he had
marked some of them inside with his private mark
of eighteen-pence.
Harris himself having admitted the purchase,
and the price as above described, both to the
schoolmaster and to the magistrate,
Mr. Paynter animadverted upon the man
Harris's disgraceful conduct, in strong terms, and
having pointed out the encouragement that had
been given to crime, said that if he were in the
felons' dock by the side of the prisoner, he should
feel it his duty to commit him for trial.
Harris was immediately charged with feloniously
receiv ng the property, and said that although the
books might be very good ones, he often bought
them as cheap at sales, and he had used no conceal-
ment in the matter.

Both prisoners were committed for trial. Mr.
Paynter consented to take bail for Harris.

LAMBETH.—George Brown was charged with
the embezzlement of divers sums of money paid to
him on account of his master and employer, Mr.
Samuel Nicholls, oilman, of No. 18, St. Mary's-
terrace, Wal wor th-road.

It was stated that the prisoner was a carman, and
was trusted with the delivery of goods to customers
and with the receipts of moneys paid him on deli-
very. For the moneys so received it was the duty
of the prisoner to account on his return every even-
ing. To a certain extent he did so, but it seemed
that he was in the habit of altering the invoices and
plying in to the cashier the amount at which they
stood when so altered. Thus he had altered one
account from 1/. 13s. 6d. to 11. 3s. 61. ; another
from lls. 6d. to 4s. 6d.
; and a third from lls. to
45., and had embezzled the difference.
The apprehension of the prisoner had been so
recent that the accomrs
generally had not been saf-
ii examined, and as also the necessary wit-
nesses were not in attendance a remand was granted.

SOUTH WA RK. —Frederick Hempstock, a boot-
maker's shopman, a married man with 5 children,
and Caroline Hawes, a married woman, were
brought before Mr. Burcham, on remand, charged
in the first instance with having stolen a pair of
boots and a pair of goloshes, the property of Wm.
Linton, a bootmaker, at No. 8, Dockhead. The
male prisoner was also charged by the parish au-
thorities of St. Olave's with deserting his wife and
children, and by the Emigration Commissioners
with unlawfully personating the husband of the fe-
male prisoner, with whom he was about to start for
Australia. On Wednesday week the prisoners
were apprehended just as they were about to get
into a carriage of an emigration train at the Pad-
dington Station.
Evidence was first taken as to certain boots and
goloshes found in the prisoner's possession, but Mr.
Burcham considered the evidence insufficient to
prove that they had been stolen, and discharged the
prisoners on that head. The female prisoner was
subsequent ly discharged altogether, but Hempstock
was sentenced to three months' hard labour, for
deserting his wife and children ; and Captain
M‘Lean the Government emigration inspector,
who was in attendance, expressed his intention of
proceeding against him under the Emigration Act,
on the last charge at the expiration of his imprison-
ment.

William Galloway, a milkman, of 74, Kent-
street, was charged with having the carcase of a
deceased bullock prepared for sale as human food,
and fined 31,, and 19s. eosts.
