GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—Yesterday the di-
rectors of the Great Western Railway instituted a rigid in-
quiry into the circumstances attending the late accident at
Wotton Basset station, which was so near proving fatal to
the engine-driver and a number of passengers. The investi-
gation took place in the board loom, at Paddington. Mr.
George, the superintendent of the station at Wotton Basset ;
Mr. Burton, the superintendent of the railway police at Bris •
tol, who was passenger in the train at the time of the acci-
dent; Ailas, the engine-driver; Morgan, the stoker, and a
number of the company's servants from Wotton Basset, were
in attendance, and gave evidence before the board. As the
inquiry was strictly private, the result is not yet known, but
it is said the evidence implicated Scull, the pointsman, whom
White relieved, in the charge of negligence, for which the
latter is undergoing two months' imprisonment.
THE GREAT FIRE IN THE ClTY.—Notwithstanding
that upwards of a week has elapsed, there was, as late as
nine o'clock last night, an immense quantity of
ere still re-
maining in the ruins of the premises destroyed in Mark and
Seething-lanes. At that hour the engines were actively '
employed in pumping cold air into Messrs. Cunliffe and
Dobson's wine cellar, in order to reduce its temperature,
so that the valuable stock in trade might not be totally
spoiled. During the afternoon, a very large quantity of pigs'
bristles were dug out -of that part of the ruins which the
firemen had succeeded in cooling.
BATHS AND WASDHOUSES IN ST. MARGARET'S
AND ST. Jon N'S, WESTMINSTE R. --The vestry and parochial
authorities of the united parishes of St. Margaret and St.
John, Westminster, have now in the course of erection, and
which is nearly completed, a spacious building, situated in
Pye-street, near Peter-street, Westminster, which will be
appropriated to baths and wasbhouses on a very extensive
scale. The area will contain two plunging baths of between
forty and fifty feet in length, and of a depth varying from
three feet and a halt a,. the sides to five feet in the centre.
There will also be above fifty baths for men and women,
with accommodation for washing and ironing linen. 'The
cost of the structure, including the purchase of the ground,
for which 3.000/. was given, will be nearly 14,0001. A shaft
has been built similar to that at the baths and washbouses of
St. Martin's. The parish authorities of St. Giles intend,
when they can get a piece of ground, to erect a similar esta-
blishment in that neighbourhood, and in the parish of St.
James steps have been taken for a like purpose.
AUDACIOUS ROBBERY AND APPARENT ATTEMPT
AT MURDER AT JERSEY.—On Thursday evening, between
seven and eight o'clock, an atrocious robbery and apparent
attempt at murder occurred at Beauval Cottage, in the Vaux,
inhabited by Mrs. Haycock and her three daughters and a
female servant, and of which residence Mr. Centenier Le
Bailly is the proprietor. Whilst the ladies were at tea the
servant went out to shut the greenhouse. On her return
her attempt to'open the door was opposed, as she thought,
by some object which had fallen on the other side; but on
her using more force, and the door giving way, a man stood
before her with a knife in his hand, with which he struck
at her over the heart. The weapon was rendered almost
harmless by her stays, and she escaped with a slight incision
in the breast, but fainted with terror. Two stones seem to
have then been thrown at her head, but missed their aim;
when the ladies, hearing the noise and men's voices, raised
reiterated cries of distress, which fortunately were heard by
a neighbour, who ran to their assistance. The villains,
however, thus surprised, had already taken flight, but had
carried wi•li them two small caskets which they had stolen
from a bed-room on the ground-floor, and which contained
23/. in money, and plate and jewellery of considerable value.
Mr. Centenier Le Bailly, informed of the circumstance, im-
mediately went in pursuit of the thieves, but that night un-
successfully; and we have not heard that the malefactors
have yet been discovered.— Jersey Times.
FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—AD accident oc-
curred on Wednesday morning, on the Manchester, Sheffiell,
and Lincolnshire Railway, ab ut two miles from Sheffield,
involving the death of a man named Thomas Shemaldine.
It appears that about eight o'clock on Wednesday morning,
a special train, consisting of empty waggons, which bad been
dispatched from Retford to Sheffield, was run in.o while
passing through the Darnall tunnel, by a passenger-train,
returning frotu the Eck ington station, the junction with the
Midland Railway to Sheffield. The deceased, who was act-
ing as guard to the first train, and was standing on the
hindermost carriage, was thrown back by the collision, and
falling on the line in front of the engine, was run over and
the
killed on the spot. His head was very much crush
brains, &c., bespattering the rails. The accident isatt
reribut-
able to the dense fog which prevailed at the time, which n-
dered it impossible to distinguish objects though only afew
yards distant.

way of Malta, announce that the currant crops have suffered
material damage while lying dry on the ground, by heavy

LIFE AND DEATH OF A TAILOR'S
A I'PRENTICE.
Yesterday, Mr. William Payne, the coroner, went
into a protracted investigation at Guy's Hospital, re-
specting the death of Itibert .Minden, aged 18 years,
late au apprentice to Mr. John Triggs, a master
tailor and oilman, carrying on business at No. .54
Church-lane, Whitechapel, who, it was alleged, had
died from neglect. Sarah Pedgrift, formerly in the
service of Mr. Triggs, said she recollected the de- I
ceased as the apprentice. He slept in a little room at
the top of the house. Mr. Triggs had two houses in
Church-lane, one in the tailoring business and the
other was an oil shop. Witness saw the deceased at
every meal time. He had for breakfast every morning
two slices of bread and dripping, with half a pint of
tea. The deceased often told witness he could eat
more. He had potatoes and meat for dinner, and
for tea he had a similar quantity as at breakfast.
What the deceased had would not have been
enough for witness. The dinner was cut off
for him, and he generally stood up and ate
it, going directly to his work again. The deceased
used to complain very much of not having a suffici-
ency of victuals, and witness wanted to speak to Mr.
Trigp, but the deceased would not allow her to make
any complaint either to his master or to his parents.
He was in the habit of getting up at six o'clock in the
morning and working until ten and eleven o'clock at
uight. On Saturday night he would work much
later. The deceased only went out on Sundays, and
then only from three to six. Deceased frequently
complained of his bed being dirty, the blankets not
having been washed for three years. He scoured his
room and made his own bed. Witness used to per-
suade him to tell his father, but his answer was " never
mind." The deceased did not have a proper quantity
of food. The witness added, in answer to the coroner,
that the two slices of bread would make as much as a
penny roll. The deceased slept alone in the house at
night, and was very timid. Elizabeth Mindon, the
mother, stated that the deceased complained very much
of his mistress, who treated him unkindly. He came
home on Monday week, and said he was very bad ;
he was crying, and said, " Oh! God has heard my
prayer." He begged of witness to take him away
from his place. Witness went to the mistress and
asked her to let deceased have a basin of gruel, as he
was very ill. Mrs. Triggs replied, " Gruel, indeed ;
what next." 'Witness afterwards told her that she
should take the deceased to a surgeon, and send the
bill to her for payment. The deceased was then or-
dered to the hospital, where he died on Tuesday. The
deceased said his bed place was dreadfully dirty, and
that he was almost eaten up with large quantities of
fleas, through the bedclothes not being changed since
he had been there. "Witness thought deceased's death
had been hastened by the want of proper food aad
cleanliness. Dr. Gull, the resident physician at
Guy's Hospital, deposed that the deceased was ad-
mitted suffering from typhus fever. He was delirious,
and continued so until his death. The jury returned
a verdict of " Died from typhus fever." The jury
also considered that the deceased had been very un
kindly treated.

WIDENING OF CHANCERY-LANE.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.
Sir,—The two letters on the above subject which
appeared in the Times of Saturday last it would seem
have not had the desired effect. The scaffolding being
now in the course of erection for the new building at
the end of Chancery-lane, without any terms being
effected, ere a few days have elapsed it will be too late
to remedy this reproach to civilization.
The parochial authorities have nobly done their
duty, as you, Sir, have done yours ; but it is only fair,
the improvement being a great public boon, in which
every nobleman, merchant, gentleman, and tradesman
in London is more or less concerned, that her Majesty's
Commissioners of Woods and Forests, the Hon. So-
ciety of Lincoln's-inn, and the ground landlord, the
Earl of Radnor, should severally bear their share of the
necessary compensation.
The opening of the Great Northern Railway has
already increased the traffic in Chancery-lane to a
considerable extent, and when the projected new
Record-office, with the new street through the Roll's
estate, &c., is carried out, the traffic will be still
further extended.
It may be urged, and perhaps with some reason,
that the three houses on the west side of Chancery-
lane, holden of Bartholomew-hospital, are those which
should be removed in preference to the ones proposed
—as this would preserve greater uniformity in the
line of buildings • but I would respectfully contend,
that ultimately the public will require these houses as
well, and even then there will not be too large an
opening for this daily increasing thoroughfare.
To preserve greater uniformity in the present pro-
ject it will be necessary to take 24 inches in a shelving
or slanting direction from the confectioner's shop,
which will involve but a small expense in refronting
the house, it being otherwise in perfect repair. The
house also belongs to the Earl of Radnor, who holds
property here to the extent of many thousands per
annum.

So important is the approach to Lincoln's-inn from
Holborn, that the benchers have more than once con-
templated a similar improvement., which they hoped
to have effected through their own property.
It is to be hoped that all parties will meet together
ss men of business, and consult the public conve-
nience by agreeing to and tendering to the various
interested parties a fair and liberal compensation. If
tbey will not accept this, it will be the duty of the
parochial authorities, without loss of time, to empanel
a jury under the Metropolitan Improvement Act to
assess such compensation, the expense and trouble of
which ought to be avoided if possible.
I have the honour to be, Sir, yours, &c.,
BE JUST AND FEAR NOT.

FOREIGN MUSICAL MEMORANDA.
THEATRE ITALIEN, PARIS.—Some important en-
gagements have been concluded for the approaching
season, and the troupe will soon be completely formed.
It is said that the programme about to be issued will
at once astonish and please the French public. The
rehearsals of the chorus have been proceeded with,
and M. Ber, the joint manager with M. Ronconi, has
been extremely assiduous in the performance of his
duties. Under all circumstances, a far more favour-
able season is anticipated than the last.
A new work by M. Ilalevy is about to he produced
at the Opira Comique. The principal role will be
entrusted to Mdlle. Darcier, but it is thought that it
will have to undergo some alterations to suit the voice
of this lady.
The tenor I3ordas has been engaged by Signor MC:-
relli for the Imperial Theatre at Vienna.
NAPLES.—The opera by the maestro Chiaramonte,
Caterina di Cleves, has been recently produced at the
San Carlo Theatre with the utmost success. Merca-
dante is engaged on a new work that is destined for
the same theatre. The subject is a semi-serio poem by
Marco d'Arienzo. A new work by Aspa, for alt.
Teatro Nuovo, is also spoken of, under the title of Gli
Aragonesi in Napoli.
PALERMO.—The season here is about to open with
Attila, interpreted by La Mazzioli, Landi, Cresci, and
Selvi.

POTSDAM.—The operatic theatre at Potsdam has
ceased to be a private enterprise; the management of
the house has passed into the hands of the Marechal
de la Cour.

WEisran.—A grand fitc has just taken place here,
to celebrate the inauguration of the statue of the
celebrated philosopher, Herder, who died in 1803.
The event was signalised by the performance of two
grand musical compositions, wrAten for the occasion,
one being a cantata by Messrs. Liszt and Lobengrin,
and a grand opera in five acts, by M. Richard
Wegener, a pupil of Meyerbeer. The two works
were highly successful, and a silver &lion was pre-
sented to M. Liszt the day after the fete by a musical
society of the town.
BRUSSELS.—A new Italian opera has just been
established in Brussels, under the direction of Messrs.
Quelus and Bocce. The work selected for the open-
ing night was Verdi's 1 Masnadieri, and the enter-
prise teems at present to be entirely successful.

A BROTHER AND SISTER DROWNED.-011 Tues-
day last an inquest was held at Wetwang, on the bodies of

PUNISHMENT OF DEATH BY BURNING.—In the
Notes and Queries of Saturday, the 10th of August,
" Senex " gives some account of the burning of a female in
the Old Bailey, " about the year 1788." Having mys-le
been present at the last execution of a female in London,
where the body was burnt (being probably that to which
" Senex " refers), and as few persons who were then present
may now be alive, I beg to mention some circumstances re-
lative to that execution which appear to be worthy of notice.
Eight of the malefactors suffered on the scaffold, then known
as " the new drop." After they were suspect !ed. the woman,
in a white dress, was brought out of Newgate alone; and,
after some time spent in devotion, was hung on the project-
ing arm of a low gibbet, fixed at a little distance from the
scaffold. After the lapse of a sufficient time to extinguish
life, faggots were piled around her, and over her head, so
that her person was completely covered; fire was then set to
the pile, and the woman was consumed to ashes.—Rotes aid
Queries.

CRIME IN IRELAND.
The criminal tables for Ireland for the year 1849
have been published. The following are some of the
observations which may be deduced from them :
The returns for 1849 show an increase of committals
of 3,467, or 899 per cent. on the preceding year.
The gross annual number of committals for a period
of seven years in 1849 has ranged from 16,696 (1845)
to 41,989 (1849). In 1843 the total number of
committals was 20,126; for the next three years it
was below 90,000; in 1847 it rose to 31,209,
and in 1848 to 38,522. A comparison of the
year 1849 with its predecessor shows in crimes
against the person with violence a decrease of 11.8 per
cent. ; in those against property with violence an in-
crease of 4.7 ; in those against property without vio-
lence anincrease of 18.5 ; in malicious offences against
property a decrease of 23.73 ; in forgeries and offences
against the currency an increase of 30.05 ; and in
miscellaneous offences an increase of 6.01 per cent.
The first class of offences—viz., " against the person
with violence," offer a favourable result as regards
their character. The decrease under the head
" Murder" is 12.83 per cent. on the Preceding year.
The committals for murder for the eight years have ranged from 92 (1845) to 195 (1848) ;in 1849
they were 173, of which 138 were acquitted on trial.
In the committals for shooting and stabbing there has
been a decrease fi mil 110 to 66, or 40 per cent., while
those for manslaughter have increased from 166 to
173. Committals for rape have decreased during the
last three years, thus-62, 56, 43 ; and in assaults the
decrease has been 10.24 per cent. In class No. 2 the
crimes of sacrilege, burglary, and robbery show an in-
crease respectively of 25, 121, and 57, over 1848.
"Cattle stealing," under its several heads, and " lar-
ceny," exhibit an increase of 1,699 for the former and
1,734 for the latter. Among the malicious offences,
there is an increase under the head " arson" of 55,
while in killing or maiming cattle there is a decrease
of 322, or more than 60 per cent. The offences
against the currency show an increase of 69, of which
41 are under the head buying, procuring, having, &c.,
counterfeit coin. The increase in the last class is
principally under the heads " riot" and "rescue," the
former bring 279 and the latter 557 more than in
1848. In administering and taking unlawful oaths
there is also an increase of 62, but in perjury
and subornation there is a decrease of 17. The
number of sentences of death passed for the first
four years of a septennial period ending 1849,
has ranged from 13 (1845) to 20 (1844); for the
last three years there have been respectively 25, 60,
38. The transportations for life for the first four
years of the same period ranged from 39 to 49, and
for the last three years they have been respectively
17, 79, 61; those for 15 or 14 years ranged for the
first four years from 15 (1845) to 29 (1846), and for
the last three they have been 71, 71, 32 ; those for
seven years ranged in the first four years from 428
(1845) to 526 (1844), and in the last three they
were 1,587, 2,075, 1,896 ; the transportations for
other periods ranged from 113 (1844) to 158 (1843)
during the first four years, and for the last three were
440, 473, 1,061. The number of persons imprisoned
for from one to two years during the first four years
of the same period ranged from 107 (1844) to 193
(1846), and for the last three years respectively the
numbers were 342, 263, 344 ; of those imprisoned
for from six months to one year the number ranged
during the first four years from 534 (1845) to 758
(1846), and during the next three was respectively
1,428, 1,410, 1,721; the imprisonments for six
months and under for the first four years ranged
from 4,347 (1841) to 5,282 (1845), and for the sub-
sequent 3ears were 9,440, 11,289, 13,369. The
number of persons fined or discharged, &c., during
the seven years has ranged fr an 1,349 (1845) to
2,336 (1849), and of those whose sentence was re•
spited from 94 (1844) to 351 (1843). Of the capital
offences passed in 1849, 15 were executed, viz., 13 for
murder, one for shooting at, and one for solicitation to
murder; 20 were commuted to transportation for life,
and three for 14 years. The greatest comparative num-
ber of acquittals, during the septennial period occurs
in 1845, being 57.47 per cent., and the lowest in
1849, when it was only 49.5 per cent. The cases
in which the greatest comparative number of ac-
quittals has occurred are those of offences classed
under the head " miscellaneous " and those " against
the person," the respective proportion of acquittals
for these being 58.33 and 64 82 per cent. The
cases in which the smallest number of acquittals has
occurred are those of offences against property, the
proportion being 37 02 per cent.
Of the 41,989 offenders committed in 1849, 31,340
were men and 10,649 women. Of the former 6,484
could both read and write, 3,023 could only read,
12,157 were unable to read or write, and of 9,676
the instruction could not be ascertained. Or the
women 235 could read and write, 1,500 could only
read, and 5,877 could do neither ; the number whose
instruction was not ascertained being 2,357. When
classed with respect to age we find the greatest pro-
portion of offenders occurring from the age of 21 to
30 ; the numbers being 7,151 men and 3,110
women. The next most numerous class is from 16
to 21 ; the relative numbers being 5,731 men and
2,238 women.

PROPOSED BREAKWATER OFF

BRIGHTON.
On Tuesday a meeting was held at the Town-hall,
to take into consideration the practicability of apply-
ing Mr. Smith's yielding Breakwater to Brighton.
Mr. Wilkinson acted as chairman. Mr. Smith
briefly explained his plan. Any object, he said, how-
ever fragile, might exist with safety in the roughest
sea, if unmoored and capable of being carried hither
and thither by the waves. Such was the principle of
his breakwater; it was screwed to piles similar to
those of the pier, but was flexible and and waved
backward and forward with the motion of the water
in such a manner that though offering every resistance,
it seemed to offer none, and incurred no danger. In
fine weather it was perfectly quiescent; and even in
a storm the links by which it was connected were so
few that comparatively trifling friction was pro-
duced, and consequently its durability might be
reckoned on. It might be made of timber or
wrought iron. It would afford anchorage alike
for three-deckers and the smallest boats. The
advantages it offered must be obvious. It
would give Brighton the advantage of being a
barbour-town, it would protect and increase its
fishery, it would make it a rival to Ityde as a yacht-
ing station, and would be an ornament and a defence
to the coast. The proposal could be easily carried
into effect, and thereby cause persons to pass through
Brighton to the Great Exhibition of 1851. Such a
chance as that for reimbursing the money to be ex-
pended on it might not occur again for years. The
expense would h' about 12C,000/. a mile in round
numbers. Mr. Thornton, Mr. Wilds (who said he
preferred the, plan to his own), Mr. Bass, Mr. Mow-
bray, Mr. C. Burrows, Mr. Ricardo, Mr. Goulty,
Mr. Goodall, and Mr. Thorncroft, all st.i.ke on the
question, ekh taking the side of the advantages of
breakwaters in general and of this in particular.
Eventually, three resolutions were passed, expressive
of the advantage and desirability of a breakwater at
Brighton, and the design and model produced and
explained by Mr. Smith appeared to offer great faci-
lities for the accommodation of the desired object,
and that a committee be appointed to consider the
subject, confer with such parties as they might think
expedient, and report to a vestry meeting. Here
for the present the matter rests.—Brighton Guar-
dian.
