MARLBOROUGH-STREET. —Will iam Saun-
ders, a seaman, was charged with stabbing his wife,
Harriet Saunders.

The wife, a good loooking young woman, said she
had been married to the prisoner ab nit five years.
Her husband went to sea, and was away for about
three years, during .hick period she formed an
illicit acquaintance with a young man, by,whoin
she had a child. Her husband was discharged from
his ship about three weeks ago, and having found
out her alayle, he persuaded her to li ye with him
again, exacting a promise that she would not see
her infant, which was at nurse. . About a week
ago she went to the nurse's lodgings to see her
child, and while there the father of the child
Caine in. Almost immediately after this her
husband pushed open the door and saw her
and the young man there. He said "This is
what I -might have expected," and then asked her
for the key of their room, swearing that he would
go home and sell everything off. When she went
home she found her husband had kept his word.
She then took a room in Lumber-court, and fetched
her baby from nurse. She was in her room that
morning, when the prisoner tame in, and seizing
her hands threw her on the bed. She asked him A,
if he intended to murder her. He replied "Don't I
holler," and then pulling out a knife from his 1
Guernsey frock, he stabbed her. The blow fell on
her arm, and fortunately the knife, which was a •
common table knife, broke, otherwise she was sure
she should have been killed. As soon as her hus-
band saw that the knife was in pieces, he retired,
and she ran into a neighbour's r.mm for protection.
The wound was here exhibited. It was about
two inches long, and seemingly deep.
The prisoner declined to make any statement,
and was remanded for a week. !

SOUTHWARK.—Antonio de Salvi, an Italian,
and Mr. Jabez Samuel Gower, auctioneer, of Bar-
bican, were finally examined, the former charged
with st►bbing Mr. R. H. Robertson, a gentleman
confined for debt in the Queen's Bench Prison, and
the latter with inciting him to do the same, with
intent to murder him.

Mr. Gower, who was accompanied by a number
of influential merchants and contractors, surren-
dered at ihe appointed time.
Mr. Sleigh, in,tructed by Mr. Elmslie, of Lom-
bard-street, appeared for the prosecution ; Mr.
Robinson, ins ructel by Messrs. Smith and Son, of
Barnard's-inn, for Gower ; and Mr. Murrough for
Satvi.

The prisoners having taken their position in the
dock,

Mr. Sleigh said he had just seen the medical offi-
cer of the Queen's Prison. Mr. Robertson was in
the same st.te, and no alteration for the better had
taken place. He might die in two hours, or he
might live many days, but he thought he would not
survive the attack on him.

After the hearing of evidence, the snbsta,nce of
which has already appeared, both prisoners were
committed for trial. •
