Yesterday evening an luqueA was held at the Acl,l
public-houre, Haggerston, on the body of a young man,
named Edward Billing, late a labourer in the emFll,
ment of the St. Katharine's Dock Company, who war
found lifeless at his lodgings on Saturday mnrning.,„.
From the evidence adduced.it appeared that the deceased,
who was much addicted to drinking, returned to bit

and went to bed without taking off any part of
On the following morning, not haviag been seen ow as
usual, one of the inmates of the house entered his room,
and found f.im quite dead and cold. A surgeon e,bs
had carefully examined the body, gave it as his orinios,
that death was occasioned by suffocation produced by
intoxication ; and the Jury returned a verdict to
that effect.

An Inquest was held on the 23d ult. before Joao
LUTTMAN Ewa, Esq. Coroner,on view of the bodyof
THOMAS Cover Batmen, Esq. of Ank,o,, who was
found dead in a very shallow pond by then ad side,near

been dining with a friend, about seven or eight mks
distant, on the day previous, whose company he qui red
about ten o'clock at night, in perfect health, and not is
the slightest degree elevated by liquor. There seemed
to be no doubt amongst the Jury, that he died tm his
horse in a fit of apoplexy (having had one or two fits
before) t and that his horse would probably have sr.
rived with him dead at his own door, had not the stoop
ing of the animal to waiver, with the slope of the pond;
thrown from his balance.—" Verdict died in a fit of
apoplexy."—Sessex Advancer. •

when the husband came home, he began to use v
language and threats toward+ the deceased; baring

brutal attack upon the face of the defenceless victim;
and apparently fioislied by strangling her. a deep is.
pression of nails being found upon her neck. The fol.
, lowing morning, the poor woman's bead was opeted
by two medical men from Garstang, when a quantity
