MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Yesterday, Robert Lynn was charged with ir,Sicting a v"y
dangerous wound on the head of his wife, by which her life is rn-
dangered. Lynn and his wife have resided, for some time, at Se,
Monmouth.street, and be has beaten her I,:ecely on sevrral occa-
sions. She was brought in a coach from St. Giks's workhousc, by
the Overseers, who have instituted the present prosecution again*:
the prisoner. She was very faint from loss of Wood, and was
allowed a chair. She stated that the prisoner had repeatedly used
her ill, and on Sunday morning, during a quarrel, he threatened to,
take away her life. He seised the lid of a. kettle, and struck her
on the head with great violence. The wound was deep, and the
blood gushed from it, all over her face and neck ; she screamed
" Murder !" and ran into the street, and the crowd which anemb!ed
supposed her throat had been cat. The prisoner was secured, and
taken to the watch-house. Mr. Ron asked the woman what pray
vocation she had given to her husband for the treatmeut she had
received ? She replied that a.he gave him no provocation whatever.
The prisoner said chit she threw a kettle st him, besides using the
most provoking language. The Magistrate inquired if the woman's
life was In danger? The Overseer said the parish surgeon in-
formed him that she was not outer danger. l'he Magistrate ordered
the prisoner to be committed, and to give the Overseers of St.
Giles's forty.eight hours' notice of bail.
There has been some mistake in the accounts given from the To •
lice Offices, respecting a Lady named Woodgate, who, it seems, as
not the person alluded to in those statements : she has satisfamorßy
proved that she is a Lady " more sinned against than sinnine.
Her connections are respectable.

Lyon, K.C.B. of a daughter.

Mackay, of the 70tIs Regiment. Though a brave soldier, he died

mily totally unprovided for; he instantly took the widow and
seven children under his protection, hoping that their distressed
and forlorn case would induce a departure from what is the ens-

request), but worn out with disappointment, anxiety, and grief, hit
