GREENWICII.—A WIFE CHARGED BY HER HUSBAND WITH ATTEMPTING SUICIDE.A respectably-dressed young woman, named Jane Foster, 22 years of age, of 5, Morden-street, Greenwich, was charged before Mr. Seeker with attempting to commit.suicide by throwing herself into the river Rarensbourne, at Lewisham. The charge was 'preferred by the prisoner's hus• band, from whom she•.has been separated during the past three nontliS, it being alleged that he had deserted her,' Froni the evidence given it appeared that between' seven 'and eight o'clock on Sunday evening the husband and the prisoner entered the Royal Albert, Blackheath-road, and called for some ale. ;raving been seated in the back parlour some time the.husband left her for the purpose of speaking to a person, and stayed away a considerable time. During his absence the prisoner obtained some writing paper and pen and ink from the landlord, who was aware of the differences between herself and her husband, and from -what he observed of the harried manner in which she wrote, he came to the teneltiiion that it was her intention to commit suicide. This fact he communicated to the husband on his return, whose reply .was, "If she does it, it will not be the first tinie. have pulled her out of the water once, and I then told her I would not trouble myself again if she attempted to make away with herself." The prisoner had then left, and about two hours after the attention of two young men was called by a gentleman to something floating in the ltavensbourne at Lewisham, which was found to be the body of the prisoner, who was rescued in a state of insensibility, and conveyed to a neighbouring iun, where medical aid was procured, and she-eventually recovered, when she admitted having deliberately walked into the water, alleging as a reason that while talking to a young woman her husband ma her and accused her of talking to a portion of improper character; adding that he had long suspected she was unfaithful to him, and that he had then proved it. Mr. Inspector Mott said there were witnesses to speak to the cruel conduct or the husband towards his wife, but  Mr. Seeker declined hearing them, and ordered the F isoncr to find two sureties in Xl5 each, to be of good behaviour for the next three months.
