prisoner said, "It don't lie in my power to take you
abroad ; will you go with me down to Liverpool ?"
and she replied that she did not mind. He then told
her she must go home and get her things. At the
coffee-house the woman of the house brought the
teapot to her, (witness,) and desired her to pour
the water into it, and she did so. Soon after
she poured out a cup for herself and one for the pri-
soner, but was unable to say whether he had drunk
his or not. She left tne prisoner for the purpose of
going home to get her things, and intending to meet
him at the Flowerpot, in Bishop:gate-street, as it was
arranged. On leaving her husband's house, and
while on her way to Lambeth-stairs to proceed to
London-bridge by water, she felt a curious sensation
come over her, and so completely lost her senses that
she had no recollection of what happened to her until
next day.
In reply to the questions of M. ELLIOTT, the wit-
ness said she bad drunk a good deal of ale and beer,
and two glasses of gin, and so lost herself at Lam-
beth-pier that she wandered about all that night, and
did not get home until next day, when she was in a
state of madness.

In her cross-examination by Mr. Solomons, who
attended for the prisoner, the witness said she first
became acquainted with the prisoner about four years
ago. She had been ailing before Thursday last, but
neither her illness nor the beer and gin she had drunk
would produce the effects which she had experienced.
the did not feel ill until after she had taken the tea, and
when leaving the prisoner he gave her ss. to get her
things and enable her to get to the Flowerpot, where the
prisoner was to have met her. She was not taken ill
so as to lose her senses until she had reached Lambeth-
pier. She did not vomit, and did not think that her
illness was produced by the gin and beer she had
taken. She had two children, and, notwithstanding
this, she had made up her mind to abscond from her
husband and desert her two children.

Clark, the husband of the last witness, said he had
not seen his wife from the Thursday morning until
the Friday evening, when he found her at his house,
raving mad. He fetched a doctor to her, and she
afterwards told him that she had been married on the
10th of February, 1848, to the prisoner, at Poplar
Church.

Mary King said she attended Mrs. Clark on Fri-
day last, when she first saw her in a state of madness,
and then in a state of stupor, and by the advice of the
doctor they were obliged to keep her walking about

Mr. Thomas D. Donohoe, surgeon, Westminster-
road, deposed that about half-past ten o'clock on
Friday night last he was called in to Mrs. Clark, and
found her in a state of stupor, from the effects of
opium. He did not think it necessary to use the
stomach-pump, as it was evident that the poisonous
matter had been taken some time, so as to effect the
system, and recommended that she should be kept
moving about, and take some strong coffee. He did
not think that gin or beer would produce the ap-
pearances under which Mrs. Clark laboured when
he saw her ; and it was his opinion that she must
have taken some opium ; it might have been an hour
or two before.

Mr. Solomons here requested the prosecutrix to be
recalled, and in reply to his questions she said that she
did not observe the prisoner interfere in making the
tea, and she could not say that he had not taken
the cup she had poured out for him. The time she
had left the prisoner was about half-past eight
o'clock nn the Thursday, and the time she had ap-
pointed to meet him at the Flowerpot was ten o'clock.
Mr. Solomons —Has the prisoner ever slept at the
house of your husband, and with his consent ? Wit-
ness—Yes, sir.

Mr. Solornons—Has he not slept in the very room
in which yourself and your husband also slept ?
Witness—Yes, once ; when he said his wife turned
him out of doors. I had made up my mind to go to
Liverpool with the prisoner.
Mr. ELLIOTT thought there was an end of the
case as regarded the charge of poisoning, and desired
that Mrs. Clark should be placed in the dock along-
side the prisoner on a charge of bigamy, as it was
quite clear she was as guilty of the charge of bigamy
as he was.

Mrs. Clark was accordingly placed at the bar, and
instantly entered into a whispering conversation with
her fellow-prisoner; but the magistrate desired they
should be kept apart.
D. Brions, 120 M, deposed that after the prisoner
had been given into his custody by Mr. Clark, he
called to see Mrs. Clark, and ascertain if she was in a
fit state to attend at this court, and found that she was
not. She was in bed, and informed him (witness)
that she had been married to the male prisoner on
the 10th of February, 1848, at All Saints Church,
Poplar, in the name of Emma Smith, and that the
clerk and pew-opener were the two witnesses.
Mr. John Philo, clerk at All Saints Church, Poplar,
produced the register of marriages there ; and, on the
10th of February, 1848, there appeared an entry of
marriage between Harry Dixon and Emma Smith,
which was witnessed by himself and Frances Baggis,
who was then pew-opener, but was since dead. He
could not identify the prisoners as the persons who
had been married on that particular day, but had no
doubt whatever that they had been married at Poplar
Church.

Mr. Solomons contended, that inasmuch as the per-
sons were married at the time the marriage was a
perfect nullity.
Mr. ELLIOTT observed that this might be with re-
spect to the legality of the marriage, but it did not
disprove the charge of bigamy. The case, he ad-
mitted. was one of a very peculiar character; and, in
order to give the officers further time to collect the
necessary evidence, he should remand the prisoners
for a week.

On the application of Mr. Solomons, the male pri
Boner was admitted to bail.
IWARLBOROUGH-STREET.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY.-Ann Ellis and Mary Arai
Sheen were placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham,
charged with stealing from the person of Elizabeth
Jelly a purse, containing a sovereign and 7s. 6d.
in silver.

The prosecutrix deposed, that she was a servant, and
resided at No. 4, Langham-place. On the previous
evening, " about eight o'clock, she was leaving her
master's house, when the two prisoners came up a❑d
asked her the way to the British Museum. She directed
them as well as she could, and while speaking to them
she felt the prisoner Ellis withdraw her hand quickly
from her pocket. Not suspecting anything wrong, she
took not the slightest notice of this, but on the prisoners
suddenly running off she was induced to feel
in her pocket, when she found that her
purse, containing 11. 7s. 6d., had been abstracted there-
from. She immediately went in pursuit of the prisoners,
and at the corner of Chandos-street she saw them talk-
ing to a man. Directly they saw her they separated,
and the two prisoners darted down Chandos-mews,
where she lost sight of them; but while she was inquir-
ing of some stable-men whether they had seen them, she
saw them coming from an entry leading to some rooms.
She immediately went and taxed them with robbing her,
which they stoutly denied. As she was positive they
had stolen her purse, she called a constable, and gave
them in charge. Neither the purse nor the money has
been found.

The prisoners, who are connected with the swell mob,
were remanded.

SINGULAR CHARGE OF THEFT.—Charles Jones was
placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham, charged with
stealing a horse and cab from a cab-rank in Oxford-
street, under the following circumstances:—
Jetnes Hartland, a cab-driver, stated that yesterday
morning, about two o'clock, he had occasion to leave his
horse and cab on the rank in Oxford-street for about
three minutes, and on his return he found that some
person had driven away with it. He made inquiries of
the other cabmen, and from the information he received
from them he was induced to proceed to the Haymarket,
where he saw the prisoner on the box of his (witness's)
cab, plying for hire. Directly the prisoner caught sight
of him h• jumped off the cab, and ran away as fast
as he could down Piccadilly. Witness jumped on the
box of the cab, and drove after him as far as the White
Horse Cellar, where he was stopped by a police-constable.
Witness then gave him in charge fur stealing his horse
and cab.

The prisoner, in defence, said he was hard up for the
want of bread, and seeing the complainant's cab was un-
attended, he thought he might borrow it for an hour or
so, in order to raise a shilling for his family.
As there are other cases of a similar nature against
the prisoner, Mr. Bingham decided on remanding him
till Monday next.
