CHARGE Or MURDER AGAINST IN ACCOUCHEUR•
—Considerable excitement has been produced by a recent
event in the populous parish of Cossey, near Norwich, the
seat of Lord Stafford. About eighteen months since, a Mr.
Raymond Gaches, a surgeon, came to reside in the village,
having, as we understand, performed a difficult operation
upon his Lordship, in which he was successful About six
weeks since he attended a married woman named Jane Mary
Lovett, as accoucheur, and delivered her, but she shortly
afterwards died. The nurse ar.d another woruats present at.
the birth afterwards attributed the death of ate woman to
the course pursued by Mr. Gaches ; and after *le body had
been buried lOr about six weeks, on their eteeerlitanicatiou
with some of the Norwich surgeons, it was deemed. edvisahlo
to disinter the corpse, and subject it to a post merlear exArnlin-
ation ; and Mr. Pilgrim, at the request of different members
of the profession, consented to hold an inquest upon it. Messrs.
Crosse. and Francis were the surgeons who made the examina-
tion. In their opinion, had the woman been treated properly
after the birth, her life might have been saved.
Gaches was in the room during the inquiry, but took little or
no part in the proceedings; and the jury. after having heard
the evidence, in a few minutes found a verdict of man-
slaughter against Mr. Gaches. Mr. Gachee said that, if he
was wrong in the, treatment of the deceased, it had beers
through error, and not by wilful neglect. The coroner issued
his warrant for his apprehension, and fully committed him
for trial at the approaching assizes. The proceedings were.
not over till very late, and Mr. Gaches was placed for the
night in the custody of police inspector Bassett, but about
three o'clock in the morning he made his escape.. A full
description of his person has since been published, with am
offer of 51. for his apprehension. Ile is described as being
45 years of age, five feet seven inches high, slender, dark
complexion, hair black and partly grey, high cheek bones,
and whiskers shaved in a line with the ear. He has left a
wife and child behind him. The deceased has had other
children, and we have been informed that the surgeon who
attended her in her previous acconchement said, if she had
any more children she would not survive A.—Norwich Post.
HORRIBLE OUTIIAGE.—A RURAL AhIUsEMENT.—.
The parish of Foulsham, Norfolk, has for several days been
thrown into an excited state, in consequence of • most.
brutal outrage committed upon the person of an old man,
between 70 and 80 years of age, named Amiss. He resided
at Foulsham, and was much addicted to drinking. On the
morning of the 21st of February he was enticed into a
beer•hotise in Foulsham, kept by Benjamin Clitheroe,
where several of his pot compilations were drinking;
together; they had sent for a large quantity of 'atop, and
put the same into some beer, which they made the old
man drink. He was soon in a very bad state. His com-
panions obtained music, dancing commenced, while the old
man, being in a state of stupor, knew nothing that wai
going on, while the parties in the room held him up to
ridicule and pulled him about. Not satisfied with this, they
stripped him of his clothes, and made him dance naked is
the presence of females. In this naked state he was pulled
into a large fire, and held there till he was so injured that he
was unable to walk or stand. lie was eeriously burned in
many parts of his body, and when in a helpless state from
burning and filth, lie was laid on. a brick floor, where he re•
mained all night; but before this
.he was, put on a wheel..

beggar over," which was done.. lie was not able to reach his
own home till the next morning, when he went. to bed and

The Coroner then issued his warrant for their committal to
the county gaol, and the parish officers were bound over tO

FOREIGN BUTTER.—The collectors and comptrol-
lers of the Customs at the several outports of the United
Kingdom have received instructions to prepare and transmit
to the Inspector-General of Imports and Exports, with the
least possible delay, the undermentioned accounts, as far as
the same relates to their respective ports, A return of the
quantity of foreign butter destroyed in bond during the last
four years, with the dates of the several periods at which
such destruction took place, and the quantity destroyed at
each period.
EXTRAORDINARY OPERATION.—One day last week
James Walder, shepherd to Mr. Trimmingham, of Marr
Grange, near this town, a young man about 20 years of age,
was desired by his master to kill an ewe sheep, in conse-
quence of an accident which had happened to the animal.
The ewe was in lamb at the time, and Walker proposed to
save the produce, which was pronounced by Mr. Trimming-
ham to be a work of impossibility. The young man, how-
ever, went to work in a skilful manner, and succeeded in the
operation, bringing into being two fine lambs, both of which
are now living and doing well.—Doncaster Gazette.

sent month,—Liverpool Albion.
