THE LITTLE BOY, FRANCIS KELLY.—On Wed•
nesday last, under the head of Bow-street, we gave the
report of a case which came before Mr. Jardine. It was
that of a little boy who, having run away from his home
in Bristol, came up to London on foot, and was found
sleeping in a door-way in the Strand. The little fello w
was sent about his business, and told to walk back again
to Bristol, he being at the time without food, and wit
out a farthing of money to find him any. The report in
The Sun has attracted the attention of several humane
persons who have called upon our reporter at Bow-
street. One lady came yesterday to ascertain where
the boy was to be found, as she would willingly take
him down to Bristol, she being resident there. No ac-
count, however, was taken of the poor little fellow, but
he was sent about his business without a question being
asked as to where his parents lived, and bow he in-
tended to get home. The lady appeared very much dis-
appointed, and expressed the great regret she felt at the
manner in which the case had been disposed of.
FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE TURNHAM GREEN"
ROAD.—Last evening an inquest was held at St, George's
Hospital, before Mr. Higgs, on the body of William
Groves, aged 39, a farmer, of Southall-green, Middlesex.
William Shirly said that on the morning of Tuesday, the
24th ultimo, at about two o'clock, he was walking along
the Turnham Green-road, near the Barley Mow, when he
saw a horse and cart standing by the side of the pond,
and the deceased, in a state of insensibility and much in•
jured about the head, lying close by it. Witness endea-
voured to rouse him, but being unable, he called a police-
man, and had him conveyed to the hospital. Edwin
Earthy, police-constable 103 T, said that he found the
deceased lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the
road. Since then be had heard that the deceased had
been drinking at a public-house in Hammersmith that
night, and left it in his cart rather the worse for liquor.
Deceased was a man, generally, of sober habits, and was
much respected in the neighbourhood. There was not
the slightest suspicion, as had been reported, that he had
met with any ill usage, and witness thought that he had
accidently fallen from the cart whilst going to give his
horse some water. Mr. Potter, the house-surgeon, said
that the deceased died on Tuesday, from fracture of the
skull and laceration of the brain. Verdict—" Accidental
death."

ACCIDENT AT THE CITY IMPROVEMENTS NEAR VIE
GENERAL POST-OFFlCE.—Yesterday afternoon an acci-
dent occurred of a frightful and alarming nature, ill
Maiden-lane, at the rear of the Goldsmiths' Company's
Hall. A number of workmen were engaged in remov.
ing the old foundations of the houses on the western side
of the lane, when a horse and cart, belonging to Mr.
Grimsdale, Bishopgate-street, was drawn up on an im-
mense pile of rubbish, and the carman, in recklessly
endeavouring to turn it, capsized the cart and animal
into an excavation of 12 feet in depth, in which nearly
a dozen men were at work. The horse and cart fell with
fearful violence, knocking down several men, but who,
fortunately escaped with a few slight bruises. One 01
the poor fellows, named Patrick Hayes, was at work ill
clearing out a cesspool, and the fore part of the horse
fell into the mouth of it. Hayes was under, and with
great difficulty extricated in a most pitiable condition
from fright and filth. After some time elapsed, the
horse, in an exhausted state, was drawn up by means of
ropes.
THE PRINCE DE JOINVILLE STOPPED DY A CUSTOS('
HOUSE OFFICER.—The Journal du Havre states--
" When the Prince de Joinville landed on Tuesday, •
Custom-house officer stopped him, and asked if he bad
anything on his person liable to duty ? have nothing
but this,' said the Prince, showing a rich pocket-booh•
The officer, at the first inspection, saw who the perso?,
was whom he had stopped, and accosted him by his title:
WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN EXPECTED. —The bride
of the Ojibbeway Indian has returned to the parental
roof. The " happy couple" could not live comfortably
together.--Patriot,
