UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.)

Thomas Watts, a carman, was charged, before Mr.
Cottingham, with causing the death of a little boy,
named Madden, on the preceding day.
It appeared that the prisoner was driving his cart
along the Borough, when he was stopped by several
persons calling out that he had run over a child. He
immediately attended to the call, and alighted from the
cart, when he saw a child carried into a house, quite
dead. He declared that he was not at all aware of any
accident having happened until he heard the people
calling out to him to stop, which he did immediately.
The prisoner was detained until further inquiries were
made.

Thomas Farren and Jeremiah Cross were charged
with causing the death of James Scott, under the fol-
lowing circumstances :
The prisoners are draymen, and were unloading their
dray at the door of a beer shop in Webber-row, when
the deceased, who was under the influence of liquor,
staggered off the pavement into the road. In the fail
he happened to touch the horses' heels, and one of the
animals kicked out and struck the deceased, and at the
same moment they proceeded forward, when the wheel of
the ponderous vehicle passed over his breast bone. He was
taken up in a state of insensibility, and conveyed into a
chemist's shop, where he expired. In the course of the
inquiry, it did not appear that any blame was attachable
to the prisoners, who were engaged in the cellar at the
time, and the horses had their nose-bags on ; but the
Magistrate was of opinion that, in unloading drays, there
ought to be some person at the horses' heads. The pri-
soners were adjudged to enter into their recognizances
of 401. each, to appear here on Saturday next.
