and was admitted as a witness. Jackson was fully committed for
trial. It was proved that Lawrence, the shop-keeper, near the
Coburg, where most part of tke tools were found, had paid full price

seize an infant, of seven years of age by the legs, and dash its head

him, he bolted off, and escaped. The child was subsequently re•
moved to the London Hospital, where it now lies in 'hopeless stets.
