BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

A poorl3 -clad woman, with a child in nor arms, was
cl;a:geti with Legging in the E t ree . .

Police-constable 88 F stated that he wks on duty in
Great Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, last night,
between six and seven o'clock, when he saw the prisoner
accost several gent:tmen, two of whom gave her money.
A third party, to whom she spoke, turned ber away
roughly, and complained to witness of her conduct. He
accordingly took ber into custody, as :in impostor, and
when he reached the station he found that she had been
there sonic three or four minutes before, on a charge cf
stealing a pocket handkerchief from a lady, near Charing-
cross. The theft, however, could not be clearly proved,
and she was therefore liberated. The prisoner told the
inspector on duty that she was innocent of the thtf., tut
admitted the charge of begging, as the wants of he r
children forced her to do ti_ at or starve.

Mr. JARDINE asked her what she had to say in answer
to the charge.

The prisoner replied, that having been unsuccessful
in procuring employment during the last week, she
had no alternative but to seek a living for her children,
of whom she had two Lesides the one iu her arms, in the
streets.

Mr. JARDINE said that could not be allowed; there
were workhouses open for the reception of the suffering
poor, and lugging in the streets, which bad latterly be-
come quite a nuisance, must be put a stop to. He had
reason to believe that the prisoner was a pr(fessed men-
dicant, and he should commit her to the House of Cor-
rection for 21 days.
The prisoner, who had entreated the magistrate to let
her go fur this once, seemed perfectly astounded at the
sentence, and became very violent iu ber manner, de-
manding in a pussior ate manner to know what would
become of her children while she was in prison.
Mr. JARDINE ►aid they would be taken care of.
The prisoner declared that she would not leave the
dock until she was satisfied that her children would not
be allowed to die of starvation, when

Mr. JARDINE again Old her that they would be pro,
vided for in the workhouse.

The prisoner still protested that her children must
starve in her absence, and clinging to the side of the
duck, she vowed she would not It ave it until her chil-
dren had been sent for. The officers of the court were
therefore compelled to remove her by force.

WHEcK OF A AIL-BOAT ANDLoss OF -s"
T.
The cutter Exi erionet.t,
trading and carrying the mail
between Guernsey and Alderney, was wrecked on some
rocks about two miles from the eastern coast of Guernsey
last Saturday night. The cutter left. Guernsey at three
P.M. on that day for Alderney. She had a full cargo,
consisting of fl ur, drapery. salt, and clothing for the de-
tachment of the IGth ri,gimeut, quartered at Alderney.
Besides the crew, there were twenty-sevini passengers.
The vessel neared Alderney at eight o'clock, but the
wind freshening, the captain put back to Guernsey, and
while returning, the cutter struck on a rock at eleven
o'clock on Saturday night. The darkness of the night,
the violence of the wind, and the cries of distress ,froin

the passengers, were dreadful. The first boat that watt
launched a as swamped and the captain and five men were
,'row•nerl. The tide ebbing, all on board got oa a rock,
which is covered at high wcter. They there burnt their
clothes to make signals, but no assistance could get near
them. As the tide ro►e, they were obliged to leave the
ruck and get on to the rigging of the wreck. Four of
them, while clinging to the rigging, were paralysed by
the cold, and, relaxing their bold, perished. The sur-
vivors were rescued at six o'clock on Sunday morning,
manly dead from hunger and exhaustion. Those who
perished were Peter Le Cock, commander of the cutter;
Elizateth Baker, of Sark; Avard, a French cattle-
dealer; John Stark, Peter Buckley, and John Scarlor.
of K., rry, Ireland; Mrs. Harris, and her daughter, aged
six years. and a man, name unknown; total, nine. The
mail ly,g was washed ashore.

OLDS—WINFORD LAND SOCIETY.—This society has
now purchased land sufficient to allot sha: es to all the
members. The last piece of land was purchased by M.
S. Hipkins, who has kindly consented to receive the per'
chase money by instalments convenient to the society,
and was taken possession of ou the 11th inst., when the
then remaining shares were allotted.—Worcestershire
Chronicle.

TILE SNUFF-TAHING STATUE.—An English officer
in Venice, walking one day from the Doge's 'Woe'
thought he observed one of the figures on the clock
toner of St. Mark's stoop down and take up something!
He looked again, and he p)sitively saw the figure take *
pinch of snuff ! The officer confessed he was apprehen-
sive he was losing his senses, or that his vision was de-
ranged ; when an old woman, observing his consterna-
Lion, soon explained the seeming miracle, by telling hut
that one of the figures that struck the hour being out of
repair, her nephew, Jacopo, was engaged as a substitute
till the machinery WAS put in order.

TRAVELLING IN 1671.—1na debate in the House
of Commons in the reign of Charles 11., relative to Put-
ney•bridge, Sir Henry Herbert spoke against such inno-
vating projects, and said, "If a man were to come to the
bar, and tell us that ho proposed to convey us regul alf
to Edinburgh in coaches in seven days, and to bring us
back in seven days more, should we not vote him to Bed-
lam ? Or if another told us that he would sail to the
Elm. Indies in six months, should we not punish him for
playing on our credulity?" Poor Sir Henry !—what
would his vexed shade feel were it in a coupe, expressing
in ten hours to Edinburgh, or careering by the lodise
mail from the Ganges to the Thames within a month!
Inverness Courier.

EMBARKATION OF Taoors.—There embarked yes"
terday on board of the ship China, bound for Madras,
2U3 artillerymen, six sappers, and 13 women and ehil-
di ea. belonging to the Honourable East India Corn'
pony's service. Tho whole of the troops stationed at
the depot at 'Parley, Essex, amounting to about 800, ,
were inspected by the Court of Directors on Saturday
lekt, and were addressed by the chairman, Sir Archi-
bald Galloway, who congratulated the officers, non•coro-
missioied officers, and privates on their efficient, cleanly'
and suldierhke appearance, and recommended in the
strongest terms abstinence from intoxication liquors,
which had, he said, killed more men than the war bad.
After inspecting the whole establishment the directors
retired to the White Hart lon, Brentwood, where
splendid collation was prepared fir them.
TERRIBLE .itCCIDENT.-11. melancholy occurrence
took place on Friday morning in the Greyhound-yard,
Friar gate, Derby, which has caused a very painful
sensation, There is a row of cottages on either side of
the Greyhound yard, which is very narrow; in one of
•the:e ini:erable abodes a family of the same of D.kin
t e been residing. The husband, we understand, i 5
employed at Breadsall, and his wifeeworks in the Bold'
lane mill. On Friday morning she went to her occups-
don, I. avieg a girl seven years of age in charge of two
ocher children, a girl about 12 month, and a boy OAS
three years old. In order, as she stated, to prevent the
neighbours' children besting her own, as they were ac-
customed to do, she locked them in the house, Between
ten and eleven o'clock a man, who was employed re'
pairing the roof of the Greyhound public-house, ob-
served smoke 'issuing from underneath the door, which
he immediately burg open, and a most horrible sight
presented itself. The house was full of smoke, and'
two children, the eldest and the youngest, were
found literally burnt to a cinder. The little boy was
found sitting upon a chair in a corner, where he
seemed to have gone for photection, with his hands be-
fore his face, in a state of suffocation. He was lope"
diately carried out and saved. From the position of the
elder girt'' arms, it is conjectured that she was nursing
the youngest. From the statement made :by the little
fellow, who bas been literally snatched imp the jaws of
death, it appears that the elder girl wietkrear the file,
and that her clothes ignited, and she was instantly in
blaze. She appears to have rushed to the window to
make her escape, but did not succeed; and she and the
infant seem to have fallen into the cradle, which was un-
derneath the window, and which was mush burnt. Tbe
house was in a filthy, miserable state, and contained
very little furniture. On the mother arrieieg s4ta'ved
against the neighbours, accusing them of being the (oust,
of her children's death, by rendering it necessary 10
lock them up out of their reach. The remains of the
poor children presented a horrible appearance. Mr.
Greaves, surgeon, was called in, and paid every atten-
tion to the little boy, who would have been dead ins
few minutes had not the discovery been made when it -
was. What is singu'ar is, that the neighbours &shire
they did not hear the children BCI ea m.—Derbj Me; curg.

THE FIRE AT WACKIRBRATII'S SUGAR FACTORY*
—Yesterday morning, about two o'clock, another out'
break occurred on these premises, the smouldering fire
amongst the ruins having burned into one of the sugar'
houses which were 'preserved on the previous day. A
considerable time elapsed before the firemen succeeded
in suppressing the flames, and not until much damage
was done. The origin of the first outbrt ak continues in
a state of mystery. As yet the firm have been unable to
ascertain the exact amount of property destroyed ; it Us
however, upwards of 50,000/.
FIRE AT HOMERTON.—Yesterday morning a firer
of a very destructive character, broke out in the premises
belonging to Mr. J. J. ll'lntosh, the patent ink mane'
facturer, situate in Church-road. Lower Homerton, near
four miles from town, and bef ire the London engines
reached the tome the entire building was burned down.

SUICIDE AND CHARGE OF NEGLECT AGAINST THU
AUTHORITIES OF KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL.—Yester.
day, the adjourned inquest on Ellen Ryan, who cow'
muted suicide by swallowing opium, and whose death It
was alleg,d had been accelerated by her removal "rota
King's College llospital to the police• station. was held
before Mr. Bedford, at the Plough public-house, Caren
street. The inquiry was adjourned for the purpose of
having the opinion of Mr. George A. Walker,
and oil
the jury re-assembling yesterday, Mr. Walker said the
treatment adopted by Mr. Steel was quite correct up SO
a certain period. The deceased would hove hal a better
chance of recovery if she bad not been removed from the
hospital. Mr. Staibroa, deputy chairman of the h9s-
pita', said the house-surgeon had no other alternative
but to send the deceased from the hospital. There were
upwards of 120 patients in the house, and if the deceased
had been kept walking about the corridors cf tee dif-
ferent wards, the patients would have been disturbed and
their lives endangered. The jury, after consulting for
short time, returned a verdict " That the deceased died
from the effects of opium, administered by herself while
in a state ef temporary insanity, and that her death was
accelerated by her removal."

7.11 the withdrawal of tho Edinburgh and Glasgow And Cale-

duty to state that they arc in no wise responsible for its details.
They would have apiiroved of the principle of amalgamation, if on

The terms of modification ought to have been left blank, in order

have eanct!oned the measure suggested in the Bill against their pre-
