noon he taw the prisoner driving a cart in Old Cock-lane,
Shoreditch, when the child, who was playing on the I•ave-
ment unattended by a nurse, suddenly rolled over into the
road, and before an alarm could be raised, the wheel of the
cart passed over its head, and killed it on the spot. Not the
slightest degree of culpability attached to the prisoner, who
was walking at the horse's head at the tune, and who immedi-
ately stopped, and expressed the utmost regret at the sad
occurrence.
Inspector Harris said, that several other witnesses, who gave
a similar account of the transaction, were in attendance ; but
Mr. BINGHAM declined hearing them, and said, that as it
was evidently an accident, be should take the prisoner's own
recognizance for his appearance on that day week.

S.PORTING.
JUDEX'S PREDICTION OF THE DERBY.
The boy in yellow wins the day."

The last speech and confessions of Judea are now forwarded
to you. On the same occasion last year I commenced my
epistle by saying—" After a tvrelvemonth's close attention to
the proceedings at Tattersall's, and a regular attendance at
every race• course in the kingdom, it is naturally expected that
I should be able to form a pretty correct opinion of those horses
that will be there or thereabouts when the judge is called upon
to give his decision." hly presumption was blamed, but
through good and evil report I adhered to my opinion, and came
off triumphant. The odds betted against Coronation were 10
to 1 on the day that my judgment appeared in the Post.
There are 182 subscribers to this Derby ; that is, 23 more
than last season. There have been 115 horses individually
backed to win this Derby , that is, 30 more than there were
backed last year. The number that I calculate will start is 24,
that is, five less than started last year. Eight dark horses come
to the post, that is horses that have never started. Last year
there were fourteen. On the Saturday before Epsom last
year no horse had seen sto 1, taken. From all this it appears
that the road to fame is easier of access now than it was in 1841.
Let us see, as the blind man occasionally remarks.
Attila, having run several times under great advantages, has
never been beat. The Scotts evidently did not imagine in the
autumn they had such a good horse as he has since proved
himself, or he would never have been sent to such a place as the
Pottery, for such a paltry stake. Before his race for the
Champagne Stakes, at Doncaster, 50 to 1 was offered against
him, and refused. After this, 30 to 1 might have been obtained
to any amount ; and after his second victory here 18 and 20 to
I were the odds offered. He then carne to Newmarket, and
won the Clearwell; 10 to 1 was now the price taken; and I
think no stronger proof can be desired that he has been Scott's
horse throughout than the fact that, while the ether horses in
the same stable were being backed to win thousands and tens of
thousands, the position of Attila remained firm and unshaken,
and, one day excepted, he has ever since the Clearwell been a
rising favourite. The party are on him,know,
and 1 con-
fidently anticipate the honour of his being first or second. As
for Jack, Scott's second horse, he is nearly the last
horse in the race I should select to win. lam well aware of
the miracles John Scott pet forms, or I would stake my repu-
tation to Lombard-street (long odds, Mr. Reader, as you well
know) against the horse sold by Lord Jersey for 350/., and
tried by Colonel Peel to be good for nothing. I would net se
far insult two of the keenest judges in Great Britain as to ex-
press any other opinion. The horse has one redeeming qua-
lity : he is by Touchstone, I believe John Scott will run no
other, unless it be Sealteen. Coldrenick is the last horse but
one hacked for the Derby : two months ago, it was scarcely
believed that such a horse was in training. Venison vane
even later, was third, and might have been second to 13ay Mi:l-
- I alluded last week to the wusl accuracy of the
Stockbridge trials, and I have several times mentioned the un-
precedented sums of money invested. The man in the street
says John Day never bad such a horse, and as Wiseacre is
not good enough to start, we may fairly presume that
no weight will bring them together. Canadan is at
eight to one, taken; can anything justify the price? True
he has never been beat, but what has he met besides
Barrier? a horse of the same Ism as Wiseacre, or
worse, and Wiseacre is not good enough to start ! I saw the
race between Canadian and Harrier, and I was fool enough to
think (1 believe I standalone) that a race it was, and it they
were going to run to-morrow over (T.M.M.) the two middle
miles, lam not sure which I should stand on. Very bad
horses win the Derby. Condition on the day, and good luck
in the race goes far towards winning. Canadian certainly has
the best hind-quarters I ever saw, but he has a queer under-
standing. The Winchester air may help him, but I cannot
choose him to win the Derby, any
,more than I should choose
Barrier with James Robinson on his back ; I cannot forget
Barrier's performance, Criterion Course : the kill literally
choked him.
Auckland, when a yearling, was scalded, and nearly grilled
to death, on the Birmingam Railway : had he died, something
like tep thousand pounds would have beat demanded, damages.
I have heard people say that Auckland is a great lumbering
brute, with heavy shoulders ; what did they say of Launcelotsi
shoulders? and he was lame, and had done no work. The
sums of money, too, laid against Auckland iu the winter, were
heavy and terrifying to those who had never deserted him. 1
admired Touchstone, I stood on Launcelot, I shall stick to the
blood.
It is very well known that, of all the public horses at the end
of last year, I fancied Chatham, and I thought he never should
have been beat at two years old. Something was the matter
in February—what, I know not—but the horse was sent away
from Cooper's, and then trained, I suppose, on physic, for hen
he came out in the Craven Meeting, there was not so much of
him as in the preceding October. Colonel Peel did wisely to
sell him, Seahorse being sound, having a hundred to one the
best chance : the burlesque of the cow's milk, asses' milk, and,
as the schoolboys will have it, a little pigeon's milk, seems to
have gammoned the public uncommonly : a horse amiss two
months'out of the three before Epsom must have a splendid
chance indeed of winning the Derby. (N.B. It is reported
that they feed the horses on cow's milk at Goodwood. )
I believe William de Fortibus runs to guard the late Go-
vernor-General : Combermere beat him at Chester, and is sure
to beat him again, as he certainly rats under every disadvan-
tage when he won the Dee stakes. Let three or four of the
favourites cough, and this horse and the winner of the Rowley
Mill Plate will be home before the biggest half of them.
Nobody seems to know what Forth will start, a solace 03S
with the o long, or another Little Wonder. Every body has
backed the veteran's lot, determined to be on the tight one
this time. Mr. Forth trains at Mitchell Grove. I have never
seen his horses, and knowing nothing shall say nothing, except
that he is perhaps the only man in the world who could have a
real good horse, and himself only be aware of the fact. Lasso
has never been out. The colt by Agreeable is a favourite at
last. Yonng Rowton did not keep in the shade so long, and a
good horse he was—to run in a hackney cabriolet. hut Chif-
ney, in his day, has been a wonderful man. Besides the above,
the following are likely to run:—Tiptee, Moss Trooper, Oneida
Chief, Arkansas, Fireaway, Bekceur, Cheops, Palladium, pc c-
haps Robert de Gorham, perhaps another, perhaps something
of Lord George Bentinck's.
1 have said my say. The learned public would bitterly com-
plain if I minced the matter, therefore my deoision is, Auck-
land first, Coldreoick second. Victorious —I add one snore
trophy to the mat .y already. gained. Defeated—l shall greet
the novelty, and shall be weak indeed, if I do not satisfactorily
account for :t. Remember, reader, that the worst place I ever
obtained in any Derby was third, and that the worst place I
ever obtained in any St. Leger, was second. Swallow that.
May 21. JUDEX.

A seaman, just paid off from the Daphne sloop of war, was
brought up under the following circumstances :
It appeared that he arrived in a fly from Gravesend last night,
and was set down in the Borough, completely helpless from
intoxication. He was carried on a stretcher to the station-
house, and, when he came to his senses, he found that he was
robbed of all the wages he received at Chatham, after three
years' service in the Mediterranean. He added, that he wanted
to get round to Portsmouth, but had no money to get there, as
he must go to sea again, having lost all, in:tead of going down
to Scotland to see his friends.

Mr. COTTINGHAM said that this was a striking instance of
the improvidence of sailors, and asked the defendant why he
got so drunk?
The defendant replied that for three years he had teen con-
stantly at sea, and when he got on shore he was determined on
enjoying himself; but that he had paid dearly for it. He was
advised to apply at " the Sailors' Home," and they would
render him some assistance to get to Portsmouth. He was
then discharged.
Thomas Madden, a genteel looking youth, who has been
some days in custody, charged with being engaged in begging-
letter writing, was committed to the House of Correction
for two montns.
Three boys, named Jerry, Williams, and Stanley, termed
"mud larks," were charged with stealing coals from a barge at
the river side.
The prisoners were described as Vonging to a gang of
juvenile thieves, who are in the habit of robbing the barges
alongside the wharfs at the river side. They were observed on
board the " Union" barge, hastily engaged in flung their bags
with coals, and when they were discovered, they jumped into
the river, being swimmers, and tried to escape, but were fol-
lowed in a boat and captured. They were committed for two
mon`hs each.
King George and Edward George, two young men, the
sons of the landlord of the Plough public-house at Stock-
well, were brought before Mr. Cottingham, charged with
an aggravated assault on Mrs. Esther East, the wife of
a butcer, in Trafalgar-place, Walworth.
The Complainant stated that on the preceding after-
noon she went to visit some friends at Dulwich,. and
having remained there too late for the omnibuses, she
set out to walk home. When she got to the Golden
Lion at Camberwell, she saw a chaise-cart standing at
the door, in which were the prisoners, another man, and
a woman, and as she (witness) passed the prisoners, Ed.
ward George, addressing her, asked her if she would
have a ride, adding that they were going to town, and would
give a lift with pleasure to Walworth. Seeing a female
in the vehicle, and being tired, the witness accepted the
invitation, and accordingly got up into the cart, and
when she had taken her seat, the prisoner King George
turned the horse round, and drove towards Cold
Harbour-lane. On finding that they were driving in a
contrary direction to town, she desired to b let
out, and seized the reins, but the driver pushed her
away. The other female who was in the cart, got out
just before they turned to go towards Cold Harbour-
lane. The moment she go'. out, the prisoner, Edward
George, put his arms round witness's neck, whilst his
brother pushed her backwards off the seat, and thrust
his hands up under her clothes. She screamed out.mur-
der, upon which both the prisoners said that she might
cry out as, much as she liked, but she had got into the
cart of her own accord, and that they would keep her,'
out all night. They then repeated the assault upon her,
and her cries at length brought a gentleman to her as-
sistance, who stopped the horse, which was going at a
very rapid rate at the time, and lifted her out of the
vehicle, and then gave her assailants into custody. The
witness added that,the prisoners appeared to have been
drinking, but that she did not perceive it until after she
got into the cart.
Mr. William Bargent stated that, on the preceding
night, as he was walking in Cold Harbour-lane, he heard
a female screaming, and soon afterwards the cart in
which she was approached, and she called out for his
assistance. He immediately ran into the road, and at
considerable personal risk stopped the horse, and lifted
the complainant out, at which time she was cry ing, and
appeared to be very much alarmed. She told him the
treatment she had experienced at the hands of her as-
sailants, and a policeman coming up, he gave them into
custody.
The Magistrate said that the prisoner had grossly as-
saulted the complainant., that it was well for them that
the last witnes had come up so opportunely to the as-
sistance of the female, otherwise they might have been
standing at that bar for a much more serious offence.
The prisoners both'denied that they had used the vio-
lence attributed to them, and said that they were both
tipsy, and did not well remember what they were about,
and that they had no intention of injuring her.
The Magistrate said that it was a case of too aggra-
vated a nature for him to dispose of summarily, and he
should adjudge the prisoners to enter into their own re-
. cognizances in the sum of 100/. each, and find two sureties
of 501. each, to answer the charge at the sessions. The
prisoners were locked up in default of finding the re-
quired'securities.

A gentleman in the office of the Minister of the
Finances arriving unexpectedly on Sunday evening, instead of
Saturday morning, as .was'his wont, at a small country-house,
which he has at Saint Maur, was surprised at not being chal-
lenged by his dog, which was always on the ?lei% and still
more so, on reaching the house, to find the door open, and
lights in the upper rooms. Having fortunately brought his
fowling-piece with him, he entered with resolution. 'the first
"object he saw was his poor dog lying dead at the foot of the
stairs. On ascending to his chamber the door was half open,.
and he saw a man occupied in packing up its contents. Leve!-
ling his piece at the thief, he threatened to shoot him if lie
stirred a step. 'I he fellow, taken by surprise, dropped on his
knees and begged for mercy. The gentleman still keeping his
threatenng attitude, mule the man strip to his shirt, and
thereby ascertaining that he was unarmed. advanced and se-
cured hint. On being taken before the M.igistrate he gave his
name as Charles Budor, and was sent to prison.
Tale ItOTAL MAlLS.—Thursday being observed
as the Queen's birth-day, the Royal mails proceeded in
procession to the Post-office, the guards in their new
liveries, the coaches, which were entirely new, were
drawn by splendid teams, with a handsome harness
made for the occasion, and ornamented with rosettes of
ribbon. The letter-carriers had also their new uniforms,
and the General and Twopenny-postmen their annual
suliply of fresh official costume. The weather being;
gloomy, not so many persons assembled on the line of-
route as is usual on these occasions.

STEAM NAVIGATION ON THE THAMES.—There are
now 15 steam-vessels working daily between Gravesend and
London, the same number to Woolwich, 20 to Greenwich,
numerous small steamers, the boats of the Watermen's Com-
pany, and of the Old Woolwich Company, between Greenwich
and Blackwell ; there are eight steam-vessels constantly going
up and down tile river on their way to and from Dover, Rams-
gate, Margate, Herne Bay, Southend, and Sheerness. The
General Steam Navikation Company muster 49 first-class
steamers, a fleet superior to the steam fleet of any of the con-
tinental powers, and which carry, merchandise and property to
the amount of a million sterling weekly, and whose con•
sumption of 'coals exceeds in value 50,0001. per annum.
There are not less than 50 other large steamers trading
between London and various parts in Great Britain and
Ireland, 23 steam-tugs, varying from SO to 100 horses
power each, exclusively engaged in towing ships between
Gravesend and the Pool, 20 iron and wooden steamers navigat-
ing the river above bridge, between London. bridge and Chel-
sea, two constantly running between the Adelphi pier and
Putney, and five to Richmond. This is a vast amount of
steam-power unequalled upon any river in the world. There is
never less at any one time than 5,000 persons afloat in the
steamers during the summer season on the river Thames.
Among the novelties lately introduced in steam navigation is a
vessel with locomotive engines, similar to those on a railway,
working at-a high pressure, and the Waterman, No. 7, with
Steven's patent paddles, which enter the water at an angle of
35,
byroduce very little swell, avoid the back water thrown
up y paddles, and produce little vibration.
With two the r
twoor thrtnaer xceptions, the steam-engines in our river
vessels are worked at a low pressure, hence explosions are never
I heard of.

SIR ROBERT KER PORTER.—It has been our me-
lancholy duty to register in onr obituary the death of this
amiable man and celebrated traveller. We are enabled, through
the courtesy of his brother, Dr. Porter, of this city, to give the
following particulars connected with the awful, because
suddan and unexpected, event. On Tuesday last the Doctor
received a letter from his brother and sister, dated St. Pe •
tersburg, 3d of slay, 1842. in which they signified their in-
tention to embark in the Jupiter steamer, for England. On
the following day. Wednesday, another letter arrived from St.
Petersburgh, dated the 4th of ,1111 y, written by the chaplain to
the British Embassy, from which we give an extract :
" Yesterday Sir Robert went to Court to pay his respects to
the Emperor, and afterwards he made two or three visits to
private friends ; on arriving at his house about three o'clock
in the afternoon, the servant, on opening the door of the
carriace, perceived that his master was holding himself in,
and that he moved to the door with much difficulty, but before
he could descend the steps fell down from the effect of an
apoplectic stroke, and was carried up stairs ; he took a little
water, soon after which consciousness ceased, and he expired
at eight o'clock this morning." It appears from the above,
that the letter written by Sir Robert Ker Porter to his bro-
ther, announcing his intention to return to England, was
written on the morning of the day he departed this life; and
the fondly-cherished hope of meeting again was blasted in
the very bud by the letter which followed so immediately atter-
wardq.—Bristol Mercury.

FATAL ACCIDENT DY A PHYSICIAN'S
day, an inquest was taken by Mr. Hieg's, Deputy Coroner
for Westminster, at the Green Man. Carey-street, Lincoln's
Inn-fields, on the body of Lydia Worren, aged 53, who was
killed in being run over by a cab belonging to George Hum,'
Weatherhead, Esq., M.D., of 53. Guildford-street,
square. Catherine `teal, of No, 15, Short's-gardens,o, before
stated
e
that on the afternoon of Tuesday last, she was in Holborn, when

by a gentle-
, wh
man's four-wheeled cab, driven by a youth. and the horse in
which was going at a fast rate. She was immediately picked
up, and the gentleman who was inside having alighted, by his
desire deceased was placed in a hackney cab, and directions
given for her to be taken to Grevile street Hospital, but by
.nistake of the driver she was conveyed to the King's College.
Witness knew deceased, who was the wife of a wheelwright in
New Turnstile. She considered the accident happened through
furious driving. Mr. R. T. Freer, Surgeon of King's Cot-
tege Hospital said, that on deceased's admittance, he found
that ten ribs on her right side, and ten on her left, were frac-
tured. Every assistance was afforded her, but she died of in-
ternal haemorrhage at six o'clock the same evening. Mr. Ed-
ward Davis, sqlicitor, No. 2, Belmont-place, Walworth, said
that he was passing down King-street, and witnessed the oc-
currence. The cab was crossing Holborn from Queen-street,
and was not going at the rate of more than seven miles an hour.
He was of opinion that no fatilt was attributable to the driver,
who pulled up immediately after the accident, and thought it
arose entirely from deceased not being enabled to get out of the
way, or not seeing the vehicle approaching. Mr. Weather-
head assured the Jury that the driver, who was • certainly a
youth, 16 years of age, had been used to horses all his life', had
been•three years in his service, and he considered him a care-
ful and steady driver, and that the present melancholy inquiry
arose from accident. The Jury being of the sate opinion, re-
turned a verdiet of " Accidental death," with- knornina} deo-
(land of one shilling.
