Mr. GRIFFITU-You are mistaken in the man, and if
you go and pester this gentleman I will send you to prison.
Charlotte Dunn—l positively am the person his brother
brought from America, and if I cannot get justice done
here I will go to his house.
Mr. GRIFFITH-Attend to what I say—if you go to his
house again, and make a disturbance there, I certainly will
send you to prison.
Charlotte Dunn—lt is very hard that I am to be sent to
prison for speaking the truth, after keeping it secret for eo
many years.
Mr. GRIFFITH—You are so obstinate woman—why do
you not go with the officer, and have the person I spoke of
pointed out to you ; perhaps you will find him to be the
man who placed you under the care of Mr. Gibson?--
Charlotte Dunn—lt's of no use. General Arthur Gore
placed me there, and he has been dead fourteen years. if
you want me to see this other man, why don't you bring
him here ? _ _

Mr. GRIFFITH-What is it you want? Charlotte
Dunn—l only want the Admiral to answer my questions.
Admiral Sir John Gore—Allow me to be sworn?
Mr. Gnu-rim—The Admiral is going to do a very ex-
traordinary thing to please you.
The Admiral, upon oath, declared that, to the best of
his knowledge, his brother, Colonel Arthur Gore, never
was in America, and left no bequest in favour of the ap-
plicant.
Mr. GRIFFITH-You have beard this gentleman swear
that his brother never was in America in the whole course
of his life, and never saw your face ; now, if you go to his
house again, I'll send you to prison as sure as you are alire.
Charlotte Dunn—l'll certainly go again, for he does not
speak the truth.
Admiral Sir John Gore—l don't wish to punish her.
lam going out of town, and shall be beyond her reach.
Now (to the applicant) I tell you before the Magistrate
what I told you in my own private room, that the person
who brought you to England is at this time in London.
Charlotte Dunn—Then why don't you bring him here?
The Admiral left tllo office, ~.td the applicant went
away dissatisfied.
MA RLBOROUG H-STREET. —Yesterday Captain
Federick Maryut, R.N. residing at Hammersmith, ap-
peared before Mr. DYER, the sitting Magistrate, under a
warrant charged with desperately assaulting Henry Miles,
in his service as butler. The complainant could not snake
good his charge, and the warrant was dismissed.
Mrs. Taylor, the mother of Miss Jane Taylor, who
has been for the last fortnight, in default of bail, sojourn-
ing in one of the solitary cells of the House of Correction,
on a charge of violently assaulting and otherwise ill-using
her mother, applied yesterday to the Magistrate for per-
mission to have the young lady discharged from custody.
The grounds of her application, Mrs. Taylor said, was,
that she had the day before received from her daughter a
very affectionately worded and seemingly penitent letter,
promising never again to offend against the duties of a
child to a parent, and upon this represesentation the Ma-
gistrate issued an order for Miss Jane's discharge.
UNION-HALL.—A boy, under 15 years of age, a
pauper in St. Saviour's workhouse, was brought up by
the parish officers for the purpose of having a child sworn
to him by another pauper in the same house, just double
his age.
The workhouse-keeper said, that every means were adopt-
ed to prevent any intercourse between the sexes, and lie
was completely at a loss to know how the parties came in
" contact" with one another, for the woman slept in a
place called the store-room, and the boy in a distinct part
of the building.
The woman, in reply to the Magistrate, positively as-
serted that the defendant was the person by whom she was
then pregnant; while the boy, on his part, kept exclaim-
ing, " I am not the father, indeed I'm not."
The woman was now closely pressed on the subject, and
by her account of the intrigue between her and her juvenile
lover, it appeared that there was a door separating her bed-
room from that of the defendant, the key of which was
left in her room. She admitted having used the key for
the purpose of admitting the visits of the defendant at
night, and, although there was a bolt on that side of the
door next to the defendant's room, she added, that he never
kept it bolted, but on the contrary she always found it
open whenever she had occasion to unlock it on her side.
The woman having sworn the boy was the person by
whom she was then enceinte, he was committed to Kings-
ton in default of procuring bail, and was taken away
crying.

Within the last week or ten days, not less
than 60,000 mackarel have been brought into the port of
Null, for sale.--Leeds Intelligencer.

Another famous oyster bed has lately been
discovered upon this coast, off Hunstanton, but 80 nume-
rous are the boats which are constantly dredging, that it is
thought the store will soon be exhausted—Drakard's
Stamford News.

EXTRAORDINARY TAKE OF HADDOCKS.
—About a thousand is considered a fair, and 1,400 a very
good take of haddocks ; but on Saturday morning a New-
haven fisherman arrived with 3,310. This is a take alto-
gether unprecedented in the annals of the fishermen of that
place.—Scotsman.

• An elopement took place on Monday last
from the house of the father, a respectable tradesman in
Derby, for Gictoa Green. We could not learn much of
the history of the gallant, but there is something so inex-
plicable in his manner and conduct, that though twenty-
twu hours had elapsed befere the father gave chase to the
fugitives, lie overtook them with the aid of a chaise and
four, at Manchester, and restored the lady to the protection
of her family the day following at midnight.—Stockport
Advertiser.

APPALLING ACCIDENT BY LIGHTNING,
AND CAUTION TO ALL FARM/MS.—On Friday last, during
a severe thunder storm, four horses, the property of Farmer
BUDD, of Hatch-warren Farm, near Basingstoke, were at
work in a cast iron roller, preparing a field for turnipr.
The electric fluid being attracted to the machine by a large
body of metal that presented itself, the consequence was,
the immediate annihilation of three out of four horses. The
driver was knocked down, and for a time was deprived of
his faculties, but we are happy to find he has recovered
them. Two more horses were killed at the same time, the
property of a farmer at Itchen Abbas ; and a shepherd's
wife was struck dead in her cottage at Nitcheldever.
