KINGSTON, APRIL 2.

CROWN IDE.-7-MITRDER;

Robert Dean was put to the Bar this 'Morning,
charged with the Wilfid Murder of Mary Ann
Albert, a little girl, bet wee!) four and five years
old, on the 16th of October last, in Saint
George's Fields, by cutting her throat with a
case-knife. The circumstances oaf thii transac-
tion having been fully laid before the publfc in
the publication of the Coroner's Inquest, it is not
now necessary to enter into lunch detail.
The prisoner, it will be recollected; Werit out
with the child. but being abient rather long, and
the mother feeling alartnea, went out to,see after
thern, and on going into a court near the house,
she met the child, who reeled towards her, and
on her taking 110* in her arms the blood gushed
from her thtoat, and the child appeared as if ihe
was expiring ; a surgeon was sent tor, but his ef-
forts were fruitless, and in about an hour it died
The- prisouri wandered about for three or low
days, awl although evtry diligence was used to
find him, it was unsuccessful. At length, on the
morning of Tuesday following, at about five
o'clock, he rapped at the door of the watch-house
of St. Andrew, Holborn, and said his, name was
Dean, and that, he was the murderer, and he was
of course detained, and taken to Giltspur-street
Compter.
Mrs. Mary Albert, the mothe'r of the little girl,
was examined. `When she beheld the prisoner at
the bar she burst' into an hysteric scream of hor-
ror, and was for a long time incapable of giving
her evidence, until she was relieved by a flood of

tears. The prisoner seemed evidently affected
by the agony in which, she appeared to be.—
On ber cross-examination she gave a very favour-
able representation ot the temper and disposition
of the prisoner, and said he was extremely fond ot
children, and particulatly of the unfortunate
fatjt who bad lost her life by this act. Ott the
evening in question- she observed the prisoner to
be very uneasy in his mind, on aceo,mt of his
want ot employment, but he spoke in a rational
and collected manner.

Mts. Sarah Williams, the mother of the last wit-
ness, and Joseph Williams, the brother of Mrs
Albert, gave similar testimony.
May, a police officer, gave in a statement which
the prisoner bad dictated to him shortly atter
he was apprehended. It set forth, that he
was rendered very unhappy by being foi bid by
her father all fill thee corresponOnce with a.young
woman of the name, of Longman, to whom he
had paid his addresses. In a state of -despair he
first thought of murdering Miss Longman; but con'.
sidering 'thar she might have sonic sins to- answer
tor, he determined upon killing the limocent child ;
and he accordingly took the poor infant out and
cut her throat. He afterwards ran about in a state
of distraction, and at length surrendered himself
at the watch-house.

Agreat many witnesses were then examined on
his behalf, to prove a case of insanity.
Mr. Justice PARK pronounced sentence of Death
in an impressive and pathetic manner, at►d the Pri-
soner was ordered for execution on MOnday next.
During this last. awful stage of the proceedings,
the prisoner exhibited a maniac apathy to the
doom that awaited him, and be was removed from
the bar in a state of mental abstraction.
Mary Wells, a married woman, was indicted for
the wiltul murder of her bastard child, on the 16th
of February.—There was no evidence that the
child was born alive, and the prisoner was found
Not Guilty or the murder.; but was convicted, of
the •concealment of the bastard child, upon her
own confession, subject to the question of legiti-
macy. . Sentence was consequently respited.

SUlClDE.—Yesterday a Coronor's Inquest sat on
the bOdy of Lacy the gardener, whom we yester-
day stated to have cut . his throat atter neatly
murdering his wife and setting fire to his room.
Jealousy„.it appeared, was the cause. The Jury,
after much. consultation, returned a verdict of
" Insanity."—Five out of twelve were for fel°
de se.

ESCAPB.FROM SELF-DESTRUCTION.--Yesterday
afternoon, a decent-looking young woman; the
wife of a coal-heaver, of the name of Goodenough,
residing in Milford-lane, near the New Church,
Strand, threw herself over the parapet of Water-
loo Bridge, on the side next Somerset-hotve,
into the River, a depth of about 50 feet, at the
time the tide was running fast up ; fortunately
a wverman was rowing neae the spot, who im-
mediately went to her assistance, and rescued her
from her perilous situation, took her into his
boat, and rowed her ashore, without sustaining
tiny material - injury, except a severe ducking.--
The reason she assigoed for committing, the,
rash, act was, that- she and. her husband had had
some Words.

The building of a new Town upon land be-
longing to clovernment, adjacent to the new
Dock-yard, Pembroke, has, we understand, been
lately commenced upon ; it is to be called •" Mel
ville Town," in compliment to the Noble Lord
at the head of. ti►e Admiralty Department, and,
according to the plan laid down for the different
strcets and elevation of the houses, it promises
fair that the deign will pioduce boil) a comfort-
able a1)11 truly respectable residence to its future
inhabitants. The terms of lease, &c., we• under-
stand, are to be obtained at the Dock-yard ; they.
are considered as liberal ; and every facility and
encouragement, iriB said, will be given to persons
►vho may feel inclined to embark any property in
the budding of this .new Town. The incteasing
population of the, Dock-yard and its neighbour
hood certainly offers good remuneration to specu-
lators in tlie. building line. ,
