CORONERS' INQUESTS.  Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held at the -Rose of Notaiandy public-house, High-streci, Mary';one, before Tilos. STIRLING, Esq., touehieg the death of Miss Mary Ann Tessier, a young lady who was burned to death at a boarding-school in that nuelthourhood. Verdict—" Accidental Death." Yesterday evening an invest was held in the Conanittee- room of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, by Mr. W. PA NE, the City Coroner, to inquire toucl:ing the death of William Dean, aged 37. The deceased (as appeared from the evidence) was a married man, a tailor by trade, and liadln en fer some time ia low spirits. On Wednesday last he was found hanging in his lodging. He was cut down, and antmatiort being res7ored by the surgeon, he was con- I veyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where, at one • time, it was considered lihely he would recover. He • died, however, on Tuesday morning. The Jury, -after hwaring the evidence of the house-surgeon of the hospital, returned the following verdict That the deceased died from a diseased state of the brain, accelerated by harging himself while in a state of temporary mental derangement." On Monday morning an imptisition seas taken at the sign of the Sugar Loaf, et the bard: of Church- street, Greenwich, by Mr. CARTER, Coroner, and a reTeetable Jury, upon view of the body of a very interesting girl, aged 16, reamed Jane Mary M‘GinMs, who, in a fit of jealousy, committed suicide. appeared from the evidence of the witnesses that the deceased was a straw bonnet-tnaker, and lived in the house of a Mrs. Rocks, in Roari-street, Greenwich. On Easter Monday last she went to the fair, and there met a young man of respectable connexions, named Thomas Cook, employed in Mr. Harris's pottery in the neighbourhood, to w horn she at once became ardently attached, which increased the longer she knew him, and at length such was her unbounded love for the yout 14,thae. she watched him about the town to every place his business led him : in fact, she always expressed herself unhappy when he was cut of her sight. The unhappy girl had frequently talked of marriarte, but Cm l; distinctly told her that he never intended to alter his situation till the death of his mother, and advised her to divest herself of any hopes of that description, as Lis sentiments had been long fixed. Notwithstanding these assurances, her love contiatied unabated, and subsequently she became jealous of the young mare and allowed her passion to obtain such a command over her feelings, and to such an extent did she carry her suspicious conduct, that she became the greatest annoyance to him. Having observed him paying some attention to another young woman at a dance, she left the room in a fit of passion, and a few days after poisoned herself with oxalic acid.— After taking the poison she proceeded towards the place where Cook worked; but not being able to walk so far, she entered a house on the way, fell down on the floor, and flied in great agony. Thos.. Cook, the riling man, was called before the Jury, and interrogated very closely, and from his answers there was no reason to suspect that the hapless girl bad ,been at all ill-treated by him, or that his misconduct' had 'at all induced her .to commit the deplorable act. lie spoke of her as strictly virtuous girl, but she was of a remarkably issionate and jealous dispositian. The Jury, alter ~true consultation, re:urlied their verdict—" That the deceased -poisoned herself in a tit of temporary derangement."  Admiral 13-YRoN was so proverbially unfortunate, that it was said of him that he never once %net with a fair wind ; yet his acknowledged in,:rits were such, that his disasters leer, always imp:o to hi, fortune, never as his limit.
