HALL—Yesterday C. Concorme/, the man who was stated in a former Paper to have been apprehended and detained for attempting to murder his wife, was again examined before Mr. litnNlL-1 Mrs. Conconnei, who has been in the hospital for upwards of a fortnight, being considered out of danger, attended, and was examined. She stated, that in consequence of the previous ill-treatment of her bus. i band, she had been obliged to apply to a Magistrate I for protection, and he was committed to Horsemon. - ger-lane for.trial for an assault, at the Sessions. In consequence of the contrition ,he expressed, however, she did not appear against him, and he was dischar! ged, and returned to his former residence, to which she accompanied him, and the evening passed is per. feet good humour on both parts. She had re• tired to bed, as had every other person in the house, except the prisoner and a girl about 14. years of age, who, though unknown to the prisrner, was in an ad. joining room. The prisoner paced the room several tones, and at length approaching the bed, declared he would do for her, and instantly plunged a small pea. knife, which he bad in his hand, into her body, in three different places. Her cries alarmed the girl, who called'in the watch, and the prisoner was secured. The witness was conveyed to the hospital, where her hurts were for some time considered dangerous. On questioning the prisoner as to the cause of bis cruelty towards his wife, who was a vet y decent young woman, and to whom he hadbeen married•upwardsof a year i he answered, in a vague manner, that he knew nothing about it. It was also stat‘d, that he had for si me time past exhibited strong symptoMs of derangement, and particularly that he had three times in that period attempted to destroy himself ; once by taking a large quantity of opium, once by stabbing hitn3elt; and once by plunging into the water from tl:e centre of London Bridge. The constable also proved that his conduct, whilst in confinement, hid been most incoherent. Under these circumstances, the Magistrate ordered him to be detained under the Act, called blargaret Nicholson's Act.
