Thi Early on Saturday morning she left Deal by the stage, produced mere gaol in this country than and arrived in the evening at the Golden Cross, Cha- I formation of a Materia Medics. ring-cross. Not knowing any person in England, Sold by all respectable Medicine Venders she took her place by the Liverpool coach, to proceed the following morning. to Ireland.. She slept at the Inn, and was called in the morning at four o'clock, the coach starting at five. She got up when she was called, and was waiting fof the coach starting, under the gateway in St. Martin's-lane ; the ostler went to her, and told her the coach was nearly ready, and to follow him ; she did so a few yards, but it being dark, lost sight of him, when the prisoner and anotherman accosted her, . and said they were going by the coach she was, and as the coach would stop at three places before it got off the stones, which was very disagreeable, advised her to walk on with them till they got to the last place, which she was silly enough to agree to. They set off, and as she supposed, along the Strand (the contrary road the coach goes) ; it has since been ascertained they went up Drury-lane, and stopped at the Black Boy public-house ; the prisoner and his companion had three half-pints ot gin ; the prosecutrix did not take any liquor, but got some milk of a woman at the door. After the prisoner and his companion had drank their gin, they conducted her to the Cock public-house in Dyot-street, St. Giles's, which they told her was the last place the coach called at, and they asked her to treat them with some liquor, which she agreed to. She put her bundle on the bar, in expectation of the coach coming up. The prisoner's companion took her bundle on his back, she suppbsing he was taking it to the coach. In a few minutes after, the prisoner told her the other man had ran away With her bundle ; this very much alarmed her. The prisoner said he would run after him and bring him back ; he then ran out of the house, but never returned. In this forlorn state, the prosecutrix teas left in a most shocking and dangerous neighbourhood in London, without being sensible of it, or knowing where she was, or a single person in England, and rubbed of the whole of her property. This brought her into such a distracted state of mind, that is more easi:y conceived th an described, which induced her to have recourse to the rash act of committing suicide. She took a penknife from her pocket, and cut her throat ; however, a surgeon was procured, and it was discovered that the knife had not penetrated deep enough to endanger her life. The wound was sewed up, and she is- in a fair way cf doing well. She said, in justification of her rash act, that she might as well lose her life as her money and clothes. In this forlorn state, an honest sailor took compassion upon het, and took her to his apartments, where she fared as he and his wife .did during Sunday, and they made up a bed for her. On Monday morning, honest Jack went with her to several pawnbrokers, to inquire after her clothes, which had been stolen; the wife of the sailor requested her not to return there to sleep, as they were .in such a bad neighbourhood her life would be in danger, and she should not wonder at the house being set' on fire. After the sailor had made many fruitless-inquiries, he conducted her to the above Office, where Treadaway, the constable belonging to St. Giles's, who well knew that neighbourhood, undertook to investigate the business `for her, and took her under his protection, and procured her a habitation. Treadaway traced out the two public houses which they stopped at, and learned at the Cock public.house, in Dyot-street, that one of the men's names was Daly, and that he was a watchman, but did not know the parish he belonged to ; the other man that was with him they only knew by sight. Treadaway inquired at several parishes, 2nd at length discovered him to belong to St. Mary-le-Strand, and-apprehended him on Monday night, on his beat, in Fountain-court, in the Strand. Yesterday the prisoner underwent an examination, when he acknoWledged .b&ng one of the men who was with the prosecutrix, bat denied knowing who the other man was, or where he was to be found.—He was committed for farther examination.
