not heard anything for some time, have just bee‘'o;. nal

ASSASSINArION DP SIR CHARLES
• 13AMFYLFIE.• •

yesterday afternoon A. &esti ful attempt at assassi-
na • followed by immediate suicide, took place in
the fteiAboathood of Portman-square, which excited I
• rest warm and horror. It appears that Sir Cu ARLES
Lows has had in his service, as housekeeper, !
during the last eight years, the wife of a man of the I
name of Joseph Morley. This person has often been
very troublesome to Sir CHARLES, and so frequently
called attliehonse and created disturbance, that the ser-
vants were ordered to refuse him admittance in future.
Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, Morley
called at No. 1, Montague-square, the resic?elice of
Sir Dwain, and inquired for him. 'The servant
vho opened the door ordered him to go about his
business, and on his refusal endeavoured to force hint
from the door; he then struck at the servant, nor was
h until some other person came to his assistance that
he was enabled to make him quit the house.—
Morley then went down the square and inquireA of
a woman, who keeps a fruit-stall at the corner of
Moe-street, if she had seen Sir Cuattr,Ls I:Am-
YrtnE pass? The woman had scarcely replied in the
negative, when Sir CHARLES came up ; Morley, on
seeing him, instantly drew from under his coat a
double barrelled pistol, and shot Sir CHARLES BAM-
EYLDE in the side; and almost before he had fallen
be discharged the secbnd pistol into his own mouth.
The ball passed through his head; and he instantly
fell dead on the pavement. Sir CHARLES, thegt:ll
seriously, if not mortally wounded, was enabled to
reach home, stemming the wound with his handker-
chief. On enquiry this forenoon, we find that the
ball has net been extracted, and that Sir CHARLES,
who is between 50 and 60 years of age, is not con-
sidered out of danger.
The body of Morley was conveyed to the Worces-
ter Arms, 13(mm:in-street, where it remains in an
apartment which is locked up and sealed, until the
Coroner's Inquest shall he held. 3,:alousy is said to
have been the cause of this dreadful act.
