THE ROEHAMPTON MURDER.
EXAMINATION OF GOOD'S ALLEGED WIFE,

AND THE MAN GAMBLE.
At half-past three o'clock yesterday afternoon Richard Gam-
ble and Mary Good, who has recently been known to the pub-
lic as " Old Molly Good," were placed before Mr. Hall, charged
with having in their possession certain articles the property of
Jane Jones, who was murdered at Putney Park-lane.
Mr. Heywood, Clerk to the Solicitor of the Treasury, con-
ducted the case for the prosecution.
Police-sergeant Thornton, 4 E, stated that he had been em-
ployed to watch the prisoners. the premises of Mrs. Good being
in tl iwer and llean-street,:Spitallield,, and Gamble's at No. 2,
findale's-buildings, Gray's Inn-road. He had seen the pri-
omer Gamble go on several occasions to the house of Mrs. Choi,
and remain there some time. He had also seen him leave the
louse of the woman Good, accompanied by her, and return
again with her. On one occasion he saw Gamble come out of
sirs. Good's bowie with a bundle, which he took to his own
place. On Saturday he went to Gamble's lodgings with Inspector
t'earce, and in the front room second floor, he found the three
otton gowns produced, hid under the bed. He searched the
odgings of the prisoner Good yesterday afternoon, and found
i piece of blue silk wrapped up in a pillow-case, as also a
black cloth bag, containing a purse, with 3s. 10d. in it, two
black mitts, three napkins, a towel, two dinner knives and
forks, arid a small knife, a piece of black glazed calico, and two
pairs of stockings.
Inspector Pearce, of the A division, deposed that he had
also watched the prisoners, especially the male prisoner. He
had followed him to Tooley-street—trom thence to the resi-
dence of Mary Good, where he stayed half an hour. On
Saturday evening he met the prisoner in Gray's Inn-lane. He
asked him " If he h. .d reeeived a parcel from Good ?" and he
said "He had not." He left him in the care of a constable
whilst he went to his lodging, and upon searching he found
'wo shirts (produced, one marked S. Perry). Prisoner said
they had been given him by a woman named Mary Good. Ile
also said he had a bundle as well from the same person.
Mary Anne Clarke. of No. 18, South-street, Manchester.
square, identified the piece of blue silk produced as belonging to
Jane Jones, and part of the piece which she had made the bon-
_

oet from. She also said that the gowns produced were of the
.a me pattern and make as some she had seen Jane Jones wear.
Edward Pritchett, of ,\o. :3, Edward's•place, Hoxton, said
he knew the two prisoners. and was employed to watch them;
he saw them on Thursday last at the George and Guy, Fashion-
,trect, Spitalfields. He heard the female prisoner say to the
male prisoner, The last night I saw poor Dan he said lam
afraid I shall be taken," but ho said, " I shall keep out of the
way as long as I can." Gamble said, " Hold your tongue, leave
it tome, he'll never be taken."
_ _

Mary Anne Grayson, of No. 4, Flower and Dean-street, said
the female prisoner, Good, lodged with her. Gamble had been
there three times. A man, whom Good represented as her
husband, came at seven o'clock on the morning of Thursday
week. She didn't see him with any bundle.
Mr. H. LL, the Magistrate, here observed that. he did not
see that a case of robbery could be made out against the pri-
mers. If they were at all implicated, it was far being acces-
sories after the fact of the murder. He should, therefore,
commit them both till Thursday next, when they would be
brought up with the prisoner, Daniel Good.—The prisoners
were then removed in custody.
THE MURDERER GOOD.

House of Correction, Clerkenwell, Monday, Half-past 12. r. ac.
On the arrival of Good yesterday afternoon at the House of
Correction, he was placed in one of the ward-rooms. He was
in a state of the utmost possible mental depression. By order
of the Governor an officer is constantly kept with him to pre-
vent the bare possibility of his laying violent hands upon him-
self. Since being brought to the prison he has repeatedly
expressed much anxiety and horror, in the event of con-
viction, at his body being anatomised. He is not able
to read, and has requested the officer who is in the
ward with him to read to him religious books. At present
the miserable offender is not restricted to any sort of diet, nor
is he hand-cuffed or ironed. No person whatever is allowed to
see him but the Chaplain of the prison, the Governor, and
the officer who is with him. It is the opinion of the Chaplain
that Good, if urged, would make a full confession of all the
horrible circumstances attending the murder and mutilation
of the ill-fated woman ; in fact, it is expected that such will
take place before his next examination at Bow-street, on
Thursday next.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS•

FROM THE EVENING PAP:IRS OF YESTERDAY.
GLOBE.—Sir Robert Peel last night devoted a
large part of a poor speech to a lame attempt .to
wriggle out of the gross inconsistency of his present
measures with his former declaration that it would be
most unwise to resort to the machinery of an Income-
tax to raise three per cent.—to the disgusting
machinery of an nujust tax—for so the present
Minister then described it a tax which nothing
but urgent necessity or peril 'coald make it
necessary to establish ! It is no.' answer to the
charge of inconsistency to pretend that circumstances
have so altered since the previous declaration, as to
make it inapplicable. Circumstances cannot alter
first principles, and fair proportions. They cannot, as
Lord J. Russell observed, render that which was unjust
in 1833, just in 1842. They cannot render enormous
machinery to effect insignificant objects wise now, which
was unwise according to Sir R. Peel, nine years ago. I t
is ridiculous to answer (it was the only answer the
Premier could give) that an Income-tax " would be
More unjust with a surplus of 1,500,0001." The
injustice could not depend upon the
,Surplus ; but if
it had, the propoSals of 1833 to resort to an In-
conw-tax, instead of the' Malt-tax, &c., were
founded precisely upon the same principle as Sir
Robert pleads for enabling him to get rid of the Ca-
nadian timber duty. If an Income-tax was an
unjust substitute in one case, if is so in the other.
Lamely, however, as Sir Robert Peel has explained
his cha.nge or► the point of injustice—on that of Ttil-
wisdom, he attempted no explanation or answer at all.
lie was right : it was impossible to attempt either
with the slightest success. He had deliberately de-
clared A his opinion, that it was most unwise to erect
