WORSHIP-STREET.

EXTRAORDINARY ASSAULT CASE.—Thomas Walter Wilson,
a tall, well- dressed man, was placed before Mr. Broughton,
the sitting magistrate, and charged on a warrant with assault-
ing, and attempting to violate ➢lrs. Eliza Vale, a married
woman, whose husband is a plumber by trade, and resident
in Plumber street, City-road.
Mr. W. Heritage appeared in support of the complaint,
and Mr. E. Vann for the defendant.

Mrs. Vale, a very good-looking and respectably-dressed
woman, about thirty years of age, deposed that the defendant,
who is of the same trade as her husband, had lodged in their
house seven or eight weeks, arid about twelve o'clock last
Saturday night he came home, and into the kitchen, where
she was making some gruel for her husband, who had come
home an hour or two before, and retired to bed rather un-
well. The defendant, while she was so engaged, kissed her,
but she declared solemnly, upon her oath, that he did no-
thing more, and did not attempt to disturb any part of her
dress, nor make any improper proposition to her, and both
of the doors were open at the time.
Mr. DROVGIIION put various questions to witness, who re

plied that she had been married several years, and she and
her husband had always previously been on good terms, but
she believed, from his keeping closely about her, that he was
rather jealous, and since this occurrence he had been so
violent that she appehen'led some danger.
James Vale, the husband, said that he returned home be-
tween ten and eleven on the night in question, and went to
bed rather unwell, and he afterwards, hearing the noise of
the defendant below, went softly down stairs to listen, and
there heard the defendant tell his wife that he had reason to
believe that witness had "a fancy woman," but the wife re-
plied that she had never any reason to suspect it. -The wit-
ness said he then distinctly heard the sound of two kisses,
and having got into a situation where he could see into the
kitchen, witnessed conduct on the part of the defendant,
which proved unequivocally his criminal intention. He im-
mediately rushed in and beat the defendant with all his
might, and pursued him to his bedroom, beating him until
he rushed out again. He then, he said, got hold of a brass
candlestiek, and beat the defendant with that until he broke
it over him, and then threw his clothes out into the street
after him. His wife, he said, went upon her knees, and pro-
tested to him tha the defendant had not attempted any-
thing but to kiss her, but what he saw on the 1 a-t of the
defendant, he said, proved the vile intention of the Litter,
from whom his wife was receding when he entered.
Mrs. Vale being recalled, declared repeatedly, in the most
positive manner, that the defendant, as she was pouring out
the gruel for her husband, came in, and putting his hands on
her shoulders, kissed her. That was all he did or attempted,
and that, she said, was of course without her consent. In
everything else her husband was entirely mistaken, and all
that he had described must be a delusion of his jealous and
excited imagination.
The husband admitted that he had previously a jealous feel-
ing of the defendant, for he once before saw him kiss his wife
in the kitchen, and then spoke to him about it.
Holland, the warrant officer, stated that, when he served
the warrant, the defendant, as they were proceeding to the
station-house, said, " I did kiss his wife, to be sure, but then
I had a good sound thrashing for that, and I think thatl ought
to be sufficient." On the way to this Court yesterday, kow-
ever, he intimated a more particular intimacy with the com-
plainant's wife.
The defendant now denied the construction put upon what
he had said by the officer, and his solicitor said, in his de-
fence, that on the occasion in question, he had been drinking
a little, and that what then took place was correctly stated
by Mrs. Vale, and not such as the jealous imagination of the
husband represented it.
Mrs. Vale again assured the Magistrate that the fact was
as she had stated it. _

Mr. BROUGHTON, after commenting upon the case said, that
the wife completely negatived the charge of assault with the
intent imputed to the defendant, and he should, therefore,
dismiss that; but the defendant might be indicted at the
sessions for a common assault, and he would require the de-
fendant to give bail, his own recognisance in 501., and two
sureties in 40/. each, to appear and answer any such charge as
might then be preferred.
The defendant was locked up in default of bail.

THE CASE OF POISONING AT
STEPNEY.

THAMES-POLICE.—The case of Mr. James Cockburn Be-
laney, charged with having caused the death of his late wife
Rac!iel by administering to her a dose of prussic acid at their
lodgings, 48, Green-street, Stepney, on the morning of Satur-
day, the Bth inst., having been remanded for a re-hearing
on Wednesday before Mr. Broderip, the Court was densely
crowded, and so great was the interest excited that several
well• dressed women submitted to the heat and pressure of
the body of the Court for the purpose of seeing the prisoner,
and hearing the proceedings. Several of them had to be
removed almost fainting during the inquiry.
Some of the prisoner's personal friends, persons of great
respectability in the counties of Durham and Northumber-
land, and amongst others a county magistrate, a near neigh-
bour of Mr. Belaney's, and with whom lie was in close inti-
macy, occupied the reserved seats in the Court, and his
brother, a clergyman of the Established Church, who, it is
understood, has a living at Arlington, in Essex, and to whom,
it appears, from one of the letters put in evidence, the pri-
soner was about to proceed on a visit with his wife, sat on
one of the benches appropriated to solicitors. One gentle-
man interested for the prisoner observing, previous to the in-
quiry being proceeded with, on the strange reverses of for-
tune which frequently take place in life, said, it would
scarcely be supposed that a person who was about to join the
Duke of Leeds in a visit to the Prince of the Netherlands,
should have his journey intercepted, and himself incar-
cerated on a charge of murder, at the very moment he was
about to avail himself of the invitation.

At half-past two o'clock the prisoner was placed at the
bar. He appeared considerably altered, his dress being to-
tally changed; as, instead of the clerical costume, he wore a
Taglioni coat and a black neckerchief. He heard the evi-
dence with great firmness, and gravely, though slightly, bowed
to some of his friends.

Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, and two gentlemen from the
office of Messrs. Code and Browne, solicitors, attended for
the defence.

The first witness called was Inspector Haynes, of the de-
tective force, who only returned last night from the north,
where he had been collecting evidence. He said, that in
accordance with instructions which he had received from the
Commissioners of Police, he left town on Wednesday, and
arrived on Friday last at North Sunderland. He went, ac-
companied by Mr. Ord, a magistrate, to the house of a per-
son named Bell, from whom he received several letters, num-
bered from Ito 6 inclusive. He then went, accompanied by
Mr. Bell and the Rev. Mr. Simpson, to the prisoner's house
in North Sunderland, and, on searching a cupboard, found
twe papers, purporting to be copies of wills, in a portfolio.
He afterwards went to Mr. Scott, the registrar, and procured
a copy. of the registry of the death of Mrs. Skelly, mother to
the prisoner's wife ; and, after that, he went to Mr. Thorp,
steward of the borough of Bamborough, who resides at Aln-
wick, and procured a copy of a surrender and admittance of
certain copyhold property, dated 24th October, 1843.
These documents having been handed in, Mr. Symons,
the chief clerk, proceeded to read them. The first ran as
follows :

" Euston Hotel, London, June 5, 1844.
" Dear Sir,—We arrived here yesterday evening, safe and
sound, although to-day, I am sorry to say, Mrs. Belaney is
rather unwell. The fatigue of travelling such a distance, no
doubt, to a constitution delicate like hers, was sure to tell a
little upon her; and I think her spirit, to bear up and carry
all before her, has been greater than her strength was equal
to. However, I trust that in a day or two, after a good rest,
she will be all right again, and we will be able to proceed to
Arlington to my brother's. She does not think very much
of what, as yet, she has seen of London. That is easy to be
accounted for, she being not over well on the one hand to
enjoy anything, and, on the other, having seen almost nothing
of interest but crowded streets. As, to-day, I leave this
hotel, and as I will be moving about from place to place, you
had better direct my letters to a bookseller's, who I have ar-
ranged with to receive and forward them to me wherever I
may be. His address is, ,‘ Mr. Hobson, bookseller, Commer-
cial-road East, London.' This with my name will find me,
and I shall either call every day at the shop for my letters,
or he will send them to me. If there be anything of import-
ance requiring my consideration, you may mentiou it, and I
shall make as little delay over it as possible.
"In haste, yours truly,
"J. C. BELANEY."
It is worthy of remark, that though the above, dated the
sth, is addressed from the Euston Hotel, the prisoner had re-
moved to Green-street, Stepney, on the previous day.
The next letter was dated June the Bth.
Mr. BRODF;RIP—The Bth ! Was not that the day of the
woman's death? Mr. Symons-Yes, Sir.
This answer excited the greatest possible interest, and the
letter, which ran as follows, was listened to with breathless
attention:—

" London, June 8, 1844.
" Dear Mr. Bell,---I have little else to write to the north
about at present than to give you (who, I know, are all inte-
rested in it) a very unhappy account of Rachel's state. I
have had her removed from the hotel to private lodgings,
where, with two medical attendants, she remains dangerously
ill. ymptoms of premature labour came on a few days ago ;
but, what is still worse, one of themedical men pronounces the
heart to be diseased. Of this I have:had some dread myself.
This Y ; but, if she be spared, that
will you are well, I must in haste
be will
everything.
alterrythniy ingp. plans greatly; tl
conclude, yours sincerely, " J. C. BELANEY.
" No letters have yet arrived.
" Mr. G. G. Bell, North Sunderland, Belford, Northumber-
land."
The third letter, written also to the same party, was then
read :

"-London, June 9, 1844.
" Dear Mr. Bell,—The worst that could be dreaded has
come to pass. Rachel is no more. You shall know all. Put
the men off work at the new house. As such could not be
done at the quarry and lime works without great inconve-
nience to the partnership, I shall not desire the same there.
I am hardly able to sit up; but hope to be able to write to-
morrow more particulars. As her death has occurred chiefly
amongst strangers, and so suddenly, an inquest and post mar-
tent examination will be held. This has been mentioned to
me. Of course Ido not object to it.—. Yours, sincerely,
" J. C. BELANEY."
The fourth letter, dated June, 1844, without the day of
the month, but having the post -mark 14th of June, was then
read:—

" London, June, 1844.
" Dear Mr. Bell,—l intended writing to you an account of
what had happened to my dear Rachel, through my infa-
tuity or inadvertency, and-to myself; but at present am un-
able to do so. I have written Hall a sort of account of it,
which I wish you to go immediately to peruse and consult
with him what to do. Oh I what is this come upon me like
a thunderbolt? I did not mention the cause of her death to
you before, through a desire to bury the shame and avoid
the public reproach for my fatal neglect. Yet I know well
you can account for it under such circumstances; but, oh
God ! I can never forgive myself. I would like you to call
upon Mr. Simpson, and give him the particulars of what 1
have given of the awful occurrence. Lose not a moment in
getting for Mr. Dornel testimony of my marriage from Barn-
borough, and post it to Mr. Clark, 17, King-street, Stepney,
London."

Though out of the order in which it was read, we shall, as
the more consecutive mode, give the letter to Mr. Hall :
" London, June, 1844.
" Dear Hall,-0! I am distracted. I cannot write nor do
anything. I have lost my dear Rachel ; and, what makes
the loss so much the worse, it was caused by my own neglect,
from leaving some medicine, which I myelf had been taking
a.portion of for my stomach, in a tumbler on the top of the
drawers at the opposite end of the room where she was. She
had gone for the tumbler, and poured some water into it with-
out observing anything in it, the medicine being only a small
portion of liquid in the bottom of the gips, and clear as the
glass or water; then she bad drank it. Oh ! my God, I know
not what to do. My dear Rachel is gone, gone for ever from
me. You, and all of you, knew how happy we were toge-
gether. I had just gone, leaving her in bed, out of the room
for a minute or so, into the other room, in search of another
bottle to put the medicine in, for I had broken the one it was
in, and got a tumbler in the meantime to secure the contents
in ; and she had got out of bed to use the and take some
salts, which were on the table by her bedside, and wishing to
take some water after the salts, and supposing the glass an
empty and clean one, she had gene. to the other end of the
room, unknowingly poured water into it, and, oh God have
mercy upon us all, she drank a portion of it. I heard her
cry for me in the other room. I flew to her; but, oh God !
it was all over iii a few minutes, and I am now in a state of
mind bordering on utter misery and madness. In the sudden
shock I knew not what to do or say. I called for immediate
assistance. It was brought, but it was of no use. The awful
occurrence having taken place in a situation where 1 am en-
tirely unknown, all are strangers around, and the people
being much inclined to doubt my statement that she was
my wife, and everything else I said, I am in a terrible situa-
tion. The law has a right to suspect me, and as yet I have
not a creature found to prove my marriage, or what I am, or
who I am. I have nothing to prove anything as yet. The
solicitor whom I have employed, will either have to come
down to establish my character, and prove how we lived, and
that we were married, or else he will require a few of my
friends who have known me and her also, to come up and
testify what they know of me. I know you will all do wl at
is required for me. What I now regret the most next to the
accident, in my confusion and half-stunned state, is, I did not
say what had caused her death: • I knew not what I was '
doing or saying, and, of course, horror-struck and shocked at
my infatuity iu having left such medicine there, though it

was only for a minute, and the poor dear Rachel was in bed
and, knowing well that the world would blame me perhaps
too severely for my carelessness in leaving such a dangerous
medicine where it was in danger of doing such evil, I did not,
until after I became a little more collected, say what had
happened. This, though very natural at such an awful junc-
ture, is considered as against me. Oh, God ! I now not what
to do or say. It came upon me like a thunderbolt. Ii I were
able I would write to you all—l mean most of my fries, d 4 ;
but at present I cannot. Go to Mr. Bell and Wm. Wilson,
and Alexander Wilson, and who you think fit, and state the
melancholy contents of this to them, because I cannot acquaint
them all. As poor Mrs. Stobbs is now the only memorial of
dear Rachel I know, go to her and give her my respects, and
tell her that I have lost my beloved Rachel ; and, although
there was not much friendship existing:between them for
some time past, I hope better will now exist between us, and
that I shall always regard her for dear Rachel's sake. I
must now stop ; for I am bewildered, as if in an unconscious
dream.—Yours ever, "J. C. BELANEY."
" I wish Wm. Wilson could give you Mr. Tewart's address
in London. He is one who knows me, and would say some-
tUng for me. Go to Mrs. Stubbs immediately ; for, aq a rela-
tive, it is my duty to acquaint her. Tell Mrs. Patrick and
all others you think well of. Oh, lam gone. I hope the
Lord will support me under such trouble. IN can write to
Mr. Simpson, who is the minister of the parish, I will; but at
present I cannot."
The next letter to Mr. Bell refers to the foregoing one.
June, 1844.
" My dear Mr. Bell,—By the time this reaches you,
you will have learned from Hall's letter, and my com-
munication yesterday, the awful cause of my loss ; and you,
well I know, can and will feel for me. 0, God ! what a visi-
tation came upon me, like a thunderbolt shot down upon me
in the midst of my happiness. Alas '! where are all my
summer arrangements gone with my dear Rachel ? But, I
cannot write. You shall hear from me immediately. To
meet the next payments go to Thew for the price of the wheat.
I will arrange for your supplies. Let no one interrupt you
in your usual course. I have legal advice to direct and go
through the case for me. I wrote. a few lines for Captain
Clark to direct him to write you, giving instruction_ for you
to go on with the business as usual, and where to apply
to for money to meet the pay. I did not think of writing
you at that time ;• but now have done so. Besides several
other friends who are coming up, and who have known me
for some time, I should like to see Mr. Hunt of Belford. Do
go and tell him what has happened, an that I should like
him to come up immediately to say what he knows .of me.
Mr. Hancock and several others have arrived. Tell him, for
God's sake, to come off immediately. I will pay all expenses.
I must have a few respectable friends to come forward to
establish my character and say what they know of me. Oh,
God I know not what lam doing or saying. Tell him I
shall pay every expense. When he comes he must call at
Hobson s, bookseller,Commercial-road East, London, or at 17,
King's-street, Stepney, London, at Mr. Clark's.
" Yours ever, in haste,
" J. C. BELANEY."

" Pray put the men upon the partnership on their work
again when required, if they are not already on."
Another letter, addressed by Captain Clark to Mr. Bell, at
the desire of the prisoner, was then read. It ran as follows :
" 17, King-street, Stepney, London, June 15, 1844.
" Sir,—Mr. J. C. Belaney desires that you will go on as
usual, and let him know when you want a cheque for the pay.
His solicitor advises that you-do not allow any one to see his
private correspendence, nor even yours ; nor allow any one
to interrupt anything in his affairs, or to- see any of his pri-
vate papers, no matter of whatever nature they may be.
You are also desired by him not to address me through the
Stepney address, lest they should be intercepted and pub-
lished, which would be very unpleasant. You will, therefore,
enclose your letter to Mr. Belaney, under cover to me, 17,
King-street, Stepney.
" I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
" To Mr. Bell. " W. D. CLARK."

Mr. George Grey Bell, agent to Robson and Skelly's Lime-
works, North Sunderland, identified the letters signed J. S.
Belaney, as being in the handwriting of the prisoner, who
recently became a partner of the firm. Witness believed the
late Mrs. Skelly, the prisoner's mother-in-law, had been a
partner. Since witness became agent, which was in Septem-
ber last, the prisoner took an active part in the business. To
the best of his belief the letters signed J. C. Belaney were in
the prisoner's handwriting. Witness received the letters
numbered 2 and 3 on the Wednesday after the date.
W. D. Clark (known throughout the inquiry as Captain
Clark), was called, and admitted that the letter produced,
bearing his signature, was written by him at the request of
the prisoner.
The two wills, found by Inspector Haynes, in the cup-
board at the prisoner's house, were then read. The first ran
as follows:
" 1, James Cockburn Belaney, do hereby will and bequeath
all my property, personal and other estates and heredita-
ments, with their rights and titles, to Rachel Belaney, my
lawful wife, to be enjoyed and disposed of by her, as she best
thinks fit. "JAMES COCKBURN BELANEY.
Alexander Wilson.
"Witnessed by {Ralph More.
"P. S.—John Dinning, Esq„ of Alford, is to have rry
Greenland falcon, as promised. "J. C. B."
"North Sunderland, May 17, 1844."
The second was an exact copy of the former, but without
the postscript. Judging from the signature, the whole of the
document, except the names of the attesting witnesses, was
written by Mrs. Belaney, who, it would seem, had copied it
rom the other with a too faithful accuracy, as an erasure
was made for the purpose of altering the female into the male
prisoner.
Alexander Wilson, a labourer in the prisoner's employ-
ment at the lime works in North Sunderland, remembered
the prisoner and his wife leaving that place on the Ist of
June. Witness saw the prisoner and his wife at their own
house on the evening previous to their leaving. The prisoner
asked -witness to sign a will, which he said was drawn up
between himself and Mrs. Belaney. Witness then signed
two papers. Those produced are the same.
Mr. Symous—Did, the prisoner say anything when he
asked you to sign them? Witness—The prisoner said they
consisted of this :—lf anything happened to Mrs. Belaney the
effects belonging to them would be left in her will to do with
them as he chose; and Mrs. Belaney spoke to the same effect
—that if anything happened to him the effects would go to
her to do as she chose.

Ralph More, a shoemaker of North Sunderland, signed two
papers at Mr. Belaney's house, on Friday, the 31st of May.
After taking the pen and going over the signatures in wit-

ness's presence. the prisoner said it was much better to do so,
lest anything should occur whilst they were from home, and
added, that it was the custom of gentlemen, or people (wit-
ness did not remember which), always to do so when they
went from home. Mrs. Belaney only signed the document,
and witness appended his signature. The document was here
handed to witness, who identified it.
Mr. Clarkson declined questioning any of the witnesses.
The next document read was the register of the death of
Mrs. Skelly, mother of Mrs. Belaney; it was filled up on the
information of the prisoner, who stated that Mrs. Skelly died
on the Ist of July, 1843, of bilious fever. The registry was
dated July 3, 1843.
Margaret &maids was then called—She said she had been
servant to Mr. and Mrs. Belaney for nine months. At times
Mrs. Belaney's friends came to see her. They sometimes
were not asked in, and at other times they were. On one
occasion whilst witness lived there she was told by the pri-
soner that Mrs. Belaney had miscarried in the night. He told
her so bet Ween six and seven o'clock in the morning on a
Friday; but she did not know the month.
Mr. Clarkson-1 see the clerk in his examination seems
to get his information from some paper to which he refers.
I should like to know whether this witness has been exa-
mined before in the presence of a magistrate. (To the wit-
ness)—Were you examined before ?—Yes ; in North Sun-
derland. . _

Mr. Clarkson—Was he a magistrate who examined you ?
I cannot say : I do not know.
Mr. Clarkson—l have material objections to this made of
proceeding; but I will not urge them here.
The witness proceeded to state tha.; the was not called to
render any assistance to Mrs. Belaney on the o„,:_asiont when
the prisoner told her that that lady had had a miscarr;;;P•
Mr. Clarkson--If anything applicable to the present in-
quiry is to be elicited by this mode of inquiry, let it be shown;
or, if there be any other charge, let it be stated.
Mr. Bnor)Entr—l am sure the prisoner has no cause to
complain of the manner in which this inquiry has been con-
ducted. The fullest latitude has been afforded for the defence.
The witness, on being pressed as to the time when Mr.
Belaney spoke of the miscarriage, said, to the best of her re-
collection, it was in September last. Witness knew a Mrs.
Robson. No medical man was called in when the prisoner
told witness that Mrs. Belaney had a miscarriage.
• In answer to a question from Mr. Clarkson, witness said,
she only arrived in town from North Sunderland on Tuesday,
Sergeant Shaw was then called, and proved that he re-
ceived a letter from the prisoner on the Wednesday after the
death of the deceased, which was intended for the post ; but
which witness thought it his duty to detain.
Mr. BRODERIP (to the prisoner)—lf you have anything to
say, you can say it now; but your statement will be volun-
tary, and written down for or against you.
Mr. Clarkson intimated that the defence would be reserved.

Mr. BuonEmP—Prisoner at the bar, you stand remanded
until Saturday next; but, at the same time, I feel it neces-
sary to state that, if no additional evidence be given, it will
then be my duty to commit you to take your trial for the
wilfal murder of Rachel Belaney.
The announcement, which excited a deep sensation in the
Court, did not seem in any degree to shake the prisoner, who
walked steadily back to his cell.

ALLEGED CHILD MURDER.—MI'. Higgs held an
inquest on Wednesday at the Savoy Palace, Savoy-street,
Strand, on the body of a newly-born male infant, alleged to
have died by the hand Of its Mother, a young woman named
Sarah Hyland, late housemaid in the service; of Mr. Gibson,
landlord of the above house. The circumstances of this
ease, as gathered from the lengthened examination of a fel-
low-servant of the accused, may be briefly narrated. Hy-
land had been in the service of Mr. Gibson during the last
three months, and her appearance latterl'had given rise
to suspicions that she was enciente. When questioned
on the subject, however, she stoutly denied the fact, and
matters went on as usual until Monday last,.when she com-
plained very much of spasms in the chest, and was unable
to perform her usual work. She retired to rest with her
fellow-servant about eleven o'clock, but appearing to be in
great pain the latter got up and went down stairs for a
bottle of warm water, which the accused placed upon her
chest. This gave her no relief, and her sufferings appearing
to increase, the witness went down to her mistress's bed•
room, whom she informed of Hylaud's illness, and inquired
if she should call in assistance, or take her anything. Mrs.
Gibson inquired if Hyland was in labour, and the witness
replied that she did not know, adding that she complained
only of acute pain from spasms. Mrs. Gibson then said,
if that were the case, it was not necessary to send for any-
thing, and the witness returned to her room, where she
found, Hyland walking about, apparently in great agony.
ultimately, both parties went to bed wain, and Hyland
called the witness between five and six o'clock on Tuesday
morning, saying she was unable to get up to do her work, and
wished that a charwoman might be sent ter. A slight link in
the chain of the witness's evidence was here wanting, the
next point upon which she entered being the departure of
Hyland, at nine o'clock in the morning, from the Savoy
Palace, in a cab. Her quarter's wages had been previously
paid to her by Mrs. Gibson, and after paying two or thrce
small accounts to her fellow-servants, she requested wit-
, ness to cord up her box and send it to a certain place, to be
left till called for; cautioning her, at the same time, not to
allow her mistress to look in it, as there as was some linen
which she did not wish her to see. Subsequently to Hylaud's
departure the box was examined, and the body of an infant,
wrapped up in a petticoat, one string of which was wound
tightly round its neck, was discovered therein. The police
were instantly informed of the eircumstance, and succeeded
in discovering the mother. at a lodging-house, near Shoe-
maker-row, Blackfriars, from whence she had been removed
to the Strand Union workhouse, where she now remains It
having been thought desirable that a post 7nortem examination
of the body should be made before closing the inquiry, the
proceedings were adjourned for that purpose..
