LAMBETH-STREET.

A* UNNATURAL PARENT.—SamuelCollyer was charged
with deserting his two female children, and thereby rendering them
chargeable to the parish of All Saints, Poplar. From the statement
of the beadle it appeared, that in October last the prisoner's children,
the elder of whom is not more than eight years of age, were found in
a state of starvation, in an empty house in Poplar. In reply to several
questions, they said that their father placed them there, where they
remained two days without tasting a morsel of food. The children
were conveyed to the parish workhouse, and a strict search was
instantly made for the prisoner, who had absconded, but he was not
apprehended until Friday, when he was discovered at work as a
sawyer. 'She magistrates having in the most severe teems expressed
their abhorrence at the prisoner's unnatural conduct towards his
children, committed him to the House of Correction for three
months.

A melancholy accident happened on Monday last to
the youngest son of Dlr. Fullford, baker, of Salisbury, who lost his
life in the following singular manner :—He went, as was his cus-
tom, to feed his rabbits and pigeons in a loft over the oven ; and,
as he was amusing himself by swinging on a clothes line near,
while watching his rabbits feeding, by some means or other he got
the cord entangled round his neck. Ten minutes elapsed before the
accident was dkmvered. when medical assistance was immediately
procured, but the vital spark had lied. The verdict of the coroner's
inquest was " Accidental death.”—Balk Chronicle.
