He then lay down on a bed in the room and fell asleep , and then the two women went out to get some more drink at a public house , and in about an hour or two returned . Early in . the morning a policeman , -who was on . his beat , heard a scufflo in the cellar where the prisoner , and the women were , and heard a man say , " Give 3 ne my money , " and a woman answered . " I will , " and there was a scuffle aud kicking . The policeman then went down into the cellar and opened the door , after having listened a short timetotb . e waffle and blows , which continued . On en ter mg lie saw the prisoner getting up from the * roman Fattenwhom it appeared he had been knot-ling on ,

      , and on the bed the deceased was lying on her face . The prisoner said , " They have taken four hal f , crowns from me . " On looking at the deceased more minutelv he found that she was dreadfully bruised and kicked , so that be could hardly tell that she was a human being . Tira prisoner then put bis shoes on and said , " They fcavo taken my money betwist them , " and that he -was sorry for what he bad done . The deceased "was then put upon a stretcher to be conveyed to the Infirmary , but she died before she reached that place . On examining the body h was feamHhat she had four ribs on one side and five on the -other broken , and that the liver was lacerated and the lungs penetrated , which injuries caused her death . —The jury returned a Terdict of Guilty of manslaughter . —His lordship then senteEced him to be imprisoned for three

      calendar months . Revoltiss Cxse . —Elizabeth Swinnerton was charged with the -wilful murder of Esther Swinaerton , Patrick -Kelson , a private in the 2 d Regiment , said he lodged in the prisoner ' s house at Salford , and-knew the deceased , who was stepdaughter of 'the prisoner . In tbe beginning of May was at the house .. Deceased was » cripple . She was going to bed on the landing on the stairs . The led was not long enough , aud the bedding was only a few old -clothes . Tbe next day the deceased came to him , and he gave her some tea and things several times . On a Sunday , the loth of June , deceased came into witness ' s room , and he gave her some tea . She said she was relaxed in her bowels . The

      next Sunday she came again into his room , and showed a mark on her body . Witness gave her some tea . The next day , the 23 rd of June , saw the deceased at the petty door on her bare feet . She iad a chamber utensil in her hand and was cleaning it oct . The prisoner took hold of deceased ' s hand and rubbed tbe dirt in her mouth . The deceased appeared to be very ill . Next day saw her in the parlour with the policeman by the fire . Bad seen the prisoner strike deceased several times . Deceased had shown him a cut on her head . —Caroline Selson : Lodged at Thomas Swinaerton ' s . Knew the deceased , who was about seventeen years old . The prisoner made the deceased work about the house and carry coals , and

      de other things , and the prisoner used to brat her with a stick repeatedly , and once threw a poker at her . She never went down to the cellar without leating her—sometimes with a saucepan , and different things . On the Sunday before the deceased went to tbe workhouse heard the child cry . Went dewn to her . She slept in the cellar , which had a grating through which the air came , so that the deceased would be exposed to the night air . On the Monday the prisoner told the deceased to come Tip from the cellar . The deceased said she was so ill she could not , and the prisoner said she wonld heat her and kill her if she did not come . She then

      came with great difficulty , and asked the prisoner for a drop of water to clean the utensil with , which the prisoner refused to give her . —Other witnesses Were then called , whose evidence went to the same effect as the above . The result of the ill-treatment ¦ was that the neighbours interfered , a doctor was sent for , and the deceased was sent to the workhouse , where she eventually died . The medical man who attended her there slated that she had died from consumption , but that he could not say that the treatment of the prisoner had caused it . — By the direction of the Judge , the jury Acquitted the prisoner .

Charge of Mordeb . —Thomas Threlfall was charged with having at Halsall , on the 16 th of October , 1832 , killed and murdered his wife , Elizabeth Threlfall . —This case has excited great interest from the fact of the alleged murder having been committed in the year 1832 , and also because the prisoner has since that , period been married , and has a large family , and has conducted

      himself in a most exemplary manner , both as a father and also as a policeman , in which force he was a constable for twelve years ; ho is now a respectable farmer at Preston Gabbald , in Shropshire , where he is much respected . His first wife was , on the IGth of October , 1832 , found drowned in the Leeds and Liverpool Canal .

      Chew and John Smith were put upon their trial as misdemeanours for conspiring together , along with others , to defraud Pedro Wilson and others ; and also for holding mock auctions , and obtaining money from divers persons by means of false pretences , tnore particularly from Wm . Wadsley King . The prisoners opened various auction rooms in Liverpool , tod carried on business by means of a number of accomplices , called " sweeteners . " The manner in which strangers were taken in was shown by the evi-Jence of Pedro Wilson , second purser of the Prussian navy , who was one of the victims . On the 13 : b of Jane he was induced to go into one of these auction shops , where Chew acted as auctioneer , and Smith is purchaser . By the recommendation of Chew on

      the one hand , and the eager bidding of Smith against turn on the other , he was induced to purchase several l oli watches at from £ 1 to £ 0 . believing he » ai getting them very cheap . Mr . Wadsley King also bought a number of gold watches under nearly similar circumstances . Some " sweeteners , " in plae * of smith , acting as bidders . A number of other witnesses gave evidence as to this part of the system . Phe watches were valued by practical men at from Jus . to 80 s ., and they would not sell as gold . Richard rrigge , a brusbmaker , employed by Crew as a ' sweetener , " was examined at great length . He itated he received 16 s . a week , and a commission on he articles sold . He had been in thehabit of bidding ind buying at sales by direction of Chew , who

      farnsaed him with money for the purpose . The aricles so bought were always returned . Several other persons were engaged to act as himself . Theaucioneers were exchanged several times during the day , When strangers came in , the auctioneer of the men employed would call out " A mark I" Sometimes California sovereigns were given by Chew and the ither auctioners to buy goods with . He had been aid Ids wages by Smith as well as Chew . Placards vere placed in the room representing the goods as tankrupt ' s stock , and when strangers came in . Chew epresented the goods as such . —William Jackson , a oy who had been in the service of the prisoners , tated the commission given to each one who inueed a person to buy a silver watch was threepence

      , ad a gold watch sixpence . One of the sweeteners amed Jones used to examine the watch through a lass , say he was a watchmaker , and recommend atches .

Beatrice Byng , Colonel the Hon- 0 . B . Phipps , and Lieut . Colonel the Hon . A . Gordon , left Buckingham Palace at half-past one o ' clock on Wednesday afternoon , for the terminus of tbe Great Northern Railway , at King's Cross . The Royal party occupied four of the Queen ' s carriages , and were escorted to tho terminus by a detachment of Hussars .

      A special train was in waiting to convey the august party toDonoaster , which arrived at 6 . 26 . Soon after eight o ' clock on Thursday morning , Lord Gathcart , the commander-in-chief of the northern district , attended by his aides-de-camp , appeared in front of the Angel Hotel , Doncaster , selected as the Queen ' s resting-place ; the band and a guard of honour of the 85 th Regiment drew up before the windows , and the West Riding Yeomanry saddled and rode off to keep the streets , the police guarded the barriers which were placed to break the pressure of the crowd , and preserved a line all the way to the station .

      At 8 45 the Royal carriages drove to tho door of the inn , and the Queen and Prince Albert , the Royal children , and suite having entered them , the cortege proceeded to the station amid the strains of the national anthem and cheers from the multitude along the route . Arrived there , the Queen was received by Lord Cathcart and staff , end by the Mayor and Corporation , in their official dress ; a guard of honour of the 85 th was drawn up inside , and the band of the West Riding Yeomanry was placed opposite the Royal carriage . The clergy of the town in their gowns , the recorder , and a number of ladies and gentlemen were also present . At 8 55 the train glided out of the station , and went along at a good pace till it approached Nottingley ,

      where the line traverses a large osier bed at a considerable elevation , so as to require some caution on the part of the driver . The carriages went slowly on by the edge of this ugly spot , and at 9 59 passed very leisurely tbrough the miniature tubular bridge over the Aire and Calder Navigation . The train stopped outside York at 9 . 55 , where the Great Northern directors took leave of her Majesty , and the directors of the York , Newcastle and Berwick , with Mr Leeman , chairman , took the traia in charge . The engine of the Great Northern Company was there changed for one belonging to the York , Newcastle , and Berwick Company , driven by Mr . Harrison . - Some thousands of people were assembled at the station , who cheered tbe Queen most enthusiastically . The train

      proceeded northward , and arrived at Darlington at eleven o ' clock , where the Chief Bailiff paid his respects to tbe Queen , accompanied by tbe most respectable inhabitants of the borough , while the approaches to the station were densely crowded . The Royal train passed on without any incident worth noticing to Newcastle , where it arrived at ten minutes past twelve , and after a short delay proceeded towards Edinburgh . Her Majesty reached St . Margaret ' s station at 3 30 , where she was received by a guard of honour , tbe Duke of Buccleugh , and several gentlemen connected with the city . A large concourse of people filled the Queen ' s-park , and cheered the Queen vigourously on her route to Holyrood Palace , which she entered at 3 . 45 . Her Majesty left Holyrood Palace on Friday morning at two minutes past eight o clock .

On Thursday morning , about the time of her Majesty ' s departure , a gold watch with gold dial was stolen from a lady in the street , or whilst standing at the platform . Several of the swell mob from Leeds , Birmingham , Manchester , Liverpool , and other places , have been taken in ustody by the police ; and on being taken before the magistrates were committed to tbe House of Correction for different periods , varying twenty-oi ;* days to a month .

      Martha Prior , who it will be remembered was tried at the March assize for this . county , in 1848 , for tbe murder of her female infant child at Great Waltham , and , being acquitted on the ground of insanity , was ordered to be kept in " strict custody " during her Majesty ' s pleasure , has , on the petition of her husband , Charles Prior , within the last few days , been set at liberty . —Chelmsford Chronicle . Tbe Strike at the Lincoln Fochdbt . —We are glad to announce that the strike of Messrs . Clayton ,

Both were dressed in the convict suit , marked D P and a broad arrow .

      A Railway Gate-Keefek was Killed by a train near Brockenhurst , on the Dorchester line , on Wednesday last . He was not quick enough in opening the gate , and the train dashed through and cut him to pieces . The Challenge Match between the America and thk Titanu . —This exciting contest , in which all the yachting world has evinced such deep interest , came off on Thursday , off the Isle of Wight . Notwithstanding two accidents to the gear of the mainsail of the America , which caused a delay of three or four minutes , losing at least half-a-mile she reached the required distance 4 m . 12 s . before the Titania ; and on her return was , for the second time declared the victor , beating the Titania in the entire ma by fifty-two minutes . During the greater part of the return the Titania was hull down , and on the America reaching the Nab she was at least eight miles astern .

      The Ubberby Accident . —Visit of the Governhunt Inspector . —One of the government inspectors ( Mr . Dickenson ) has visited these collieries , and has minutely inspected the red pit in which the accident occurred . The result is , that he has reported the works to be defective in many essential respects . The airway , in particular he pronounces to be utterly inadequate for the purpose of ventilating the mines , and has submitted an entirely new plan to Mr . Ridgway . Be recommends that the existing airways should be abandoned and a fresh current driven through some old workings above the levels now in use , and a road made to connect the old works in question with the new . On Thursday evening a public meeting of the inhabitants of the

      ( Staffordshire Collieries was held in the Town Hall , Hanley , in compliance with a requisition signed by the jurymen on the late inquest at the Saracen ' s Head Inn , and several rate-payers of the townships of Hanley and Shelton , and addressed to the chief bailiff of these townships , calling on him to convene a meeting to consider the conduct of her Majesty "! government in reference to that-inquiry , to adopt a memorial praying for the enforcement on all future occasions of the 13 and 14 Tic . c . 100 , and for tbe appointment of a resident inspector of mines for the county of Stafford .

Resolutions iu accordance with the objects of the meeting were adopted , one of which was supported by J . Ridgway , Esq ., the proprietor of the Ubber by Colliery .

      Charge Of Assault Against An Officer. —O...

      Charge of Assault against an Officer . —On Friday last , Benjamin Riky , Esq ., a captain in the 48 th Foot , quartered in the garrison at Portsmouth , appeared before the bench of magistrates in that town , to answer a summons taken out against him by William Collins Engteuw , Esq ., M . D ., of Southsea , for an assault on the previous Monday evening . Mr . Low , a solicitor , who conducted the case for Br . Engledue , said the assault complained of was not an actual striking , but such an amount of violent demeanour as in the eye of the law amounted to an assault . The facts were these—that on Monday evening Dr . Engledue was proceeding from Soutbsea Common to Portsmouth in his carriage , and when about to cross the bridge , he met the defendant , who was accompanied by a lady , going towards Southsea ; behind his horse was a setter dog , which on being closed up in the narrow part of the bridge , ran under the wheels of the doctor ' s carriage and sustained gome injury . The complainant ' s

      coachman was driving at a very moderate pace , and therefore no blame could be attributed to him for any injury to the dog . Immediately after the complainant ' s carriage passed , Capt . Riky went up to the coachman , and making use of language of a most disgraceful nature , apked him who he was driving , and what was the address of his master . The doctor , hearing a disturbance , put his head out of the carriage window , and hearing from the defendant that his dog had been accidentally run over , regretted the occurrence . The defendant , how ever , still continued the most abusive language against the doctor and his coachman , in answer to which the complainant mildly observed that he did not understand such rough language , when the defendant immediately rode np to the head of the complainant ' s horse , and impeded the progress of tne carriage and forcibly detained the compiainant for a considerable time ; and this was an assault m point of law . A large mob had been gathered together , and Captain Riky , finding that

      hi * violence bad riot the effect he desired , ordered the e ^ rd out for the purpose of detaining the carriaffi but the corporal on duty having more sense Sthe defendanti refused to do so , and said ho s & d notVe justitted in so doing . Finding it was I ho good stopp ing ™ y lon r ? ho dofendwit rode off Immediately on returning home , tVA complainant wrote to the defendant requi ting him to apologise for tbe languge he v roaue . use of , or he should summon him ? 0 r an assault The defendant , in reply , refuse ^ apo logise , and threatened to take proceedings against him , for a breach of the garrison orders , in driving too fast over the bridge . T > , ia statement was refuted by the evidence of John Grand , the coachman , who

      said he was not driving faster than he always drove over the bridge in question , and that the injury to the dog was purely accident . He then detailed the language used by the deiondant . Br . Engledue said , when he discovered what had happened , and heard the defendant abusing and swearing at his coachman be said , "I must apologise for the accident . I am exceeding ly sorry that your dog is hurt . " Defendant then commenced swearing at him , and demanded his card , which he refused to give him after the language he had used . Defendant then went to his horse ' s head and detained his carriage , swearing most violently all the time . Witness , upon this addressed the corporal of the guard ,

      , telling him he was placed there to prevent disturbances . The corporal accordingly told defendant to move on ; as he did not do so , witness told the corporal , if he bad not force enough , to go to the main guard , rnd procure . The corporal then sent a man to tho main guard , on which defendant let go his horse ' s bridle , and said , "I shall know you again . You may go . " This evidence was corroborated by a gentleman who was passing at the ~ timo of the quarrel . Mr . Field , who appeared for the defendant , contended that no actual assault had been committed , a whip had certainly been raised over the defendant , but no blow had been struck . The language which his client had used did not affect

      the question . If the complainant had given his name all this would not have arisen . Two soldiers who had seen the affray , were called as witnesses , but all they said in support of the defendant ' s ease was that they heard no swearing . Mr . Jesse Uoare , a lieutenant in the 7 th Regiment , said he was passing after the affray was over , and spoke to the complainant , telling him the best way to end the matter would be to give his card , but he said he would not unless the defendant would apologise . Witness afterwaads saw complainant , when he said defendant was a rascal , and should apologise . At the conclusion of the evidence , the defendant was fined 40 s . and costs . —Portsmouth Times .

      Fibesin Coal Mines . —Application op the ' Steam Jet . '—Au experiment is now making with Mr . Gumey ' s extinguishing systern , which is the most extensive and important attempt yet made . The waste at Drumpellier colliery , near Glasgow , is many hundred acres in extent , and upstanding—the seam being eight feet thick and the pillars ten yards square . The coal was fired by the flue of an underground engine on the 19 th April , and it has been burning ever since . By means of stoppings aud dy kes , about eighty acres ot this waste [ have been isolated , and the following apparatus established at one of the shafts :

      —A high-pressure boiler , with small engine for feeding , with p ipe leading to a , " pump at the top of shaft ; at thebottdm of this pump is a steam jet , three-eights of an inch in diameter . Opposite to this , at the distance of fifty feet , is a coke furnace , sixteen feet area , with a flue between it and the shaft , which flue always contains a few inches of water , by way of cooling the gas . When the steam jet is working , this coke furnace draws downjand the whole ^ gas is sent to the top of of the shaft fit a temperature of 600 degs ., inasmuch as it melts lead ; but upon coming in contact with the steam jet it is cooled , and

      still further cooled by the introduction of three gallons of water per . minute let down the pipe in conjunction with the steam jet and carbonic acid gas . The rate of discharge per hour may be judged of by the following facts : —The furnace consumes 250 lbs . of coke . The whole contents , of tbe steam boiler , at 701 bs . per inch , go down . The gas flue evaporates sixty gallons of water . The discharge of water , in addition , is 180 gallons . The temperature of the gas at the end of the flue and top of the shaft , is 600 degs . ; twenty feet below the jet , 190 deg . ; at the bottom of the shaft , thirty-six fathoms , 170 deg , ; the open pipe at the one only upcast pit , where tbe

      choke damp is blowing off , 80 deg . The result of this interesting process cannot be ascertained for some time to come . On looking through the stoppings in the mine , the whole space is Found to be occupied by carbonic acid gas , but there is a marked deficiency of air at the upcast pipe ; whether it arises from the condensation , or some leakages towards the surface , is not at present accurately ascertained . The reduction of thetemperature by the sending down of water was very extraordinary , the water being all driven into spray . Daily records are kept of the proceeding ' s , which are carried on with great regularity , and will be a conclusive test as to the efficiency of the system . —North British Mail .

' ing stones from Blackfriars Ttvujge , and tk & ' roby endangering the lives of the steam-boat passengers . —A gentleman from the office of Mr . Gannen , the secretary to the Bridge Company , attended for the purpose of pressing for a conviction in this case , in consequence of the intolerable nuisance arising from the ' increase of this mischievous propensity . —Fined 10 s ., or seven days . MARLBOROUGH-STREET . —Thk Fokce of Lovb . —A shabby-looking youth , with a pair of black eyes , applied to Mr . Bingham for protection against a young man who had recently assaulted him under the following circumstances , and who

      had threatened to " serve him out more effectually on a future occasion . —Applicant ' s name was Bailey , and he was a cattle artist by profession , though very poor . Some time ago he fell in love with a young girl as she was standing at the back window of her brother-in-law ' s house , near Queen ' s-square , Westminster , and having some reason to believe tbe penchant was mutual , he addressed a letter to her , and had the happiness to learn that his surmise was correct . He also made the discovery that his charmer was deaf and dumb ; but these trifling obstacles to a mutual declaration of passion were overcome by the lady herself becoming his instructress in the art of conversing by the fingers . Frequent interviews took place ; he proposed marriage ,

      at the same time stating that he had not sixpence in the world . He was informed by the lady that she bad money . This , however , by no means made the least aifferonce—with or without cash he was quite ready to marry her , and she was wiUing to become Mrs . Bailey . The wedding-day was fixed , and it was agreed that the nuptial knot should be tied through tbe aid of a license . The lady gave him £ 2 , but this was not enough , and she advanced him £ 1 more , telling him to keep the change , fie obtained a license , which he had at that moment in his pocket , and every thing was arranged for the young lady ' s fli g ht from home without the knowledge of her family . But somehow or another the young lady ' s brother-in-law obtained information

      of what was going forward , and being totally averse to tbe match , he sought him out , and inflicted a severe beating on him in Cleveland-street ; As applicant was fearful of being further ill-used he hoped the magistrate would grant a summons against the brother-in-law . —Mr . Bingham said he would grant a summons , or as the case was pressing , a warrant . —The applicant had no mouey to pay for either . —Mr . Bingham : And yet you are going to get married , and perhaps to have children , without possessing even 2 s . to pay for a warrant to save your life , —Applicant : Its the youn £ girl as is going to marry me . —Mr . Bingham : Oh , I forgot , she has the money . "Well , you must find 2 s . somehow . —The applicant left the court to try and raise the needful .

      THAMES .-Frau -d . —Alfred Guest , a respectable looking man , 22 years of age , described as an oilman residing at 68 , Great Oambridge-streeet , Bethnal Green , was charged with defrauding his employer , Mr . John Holdsworth , also an oilman , carrying on business at Shadwell and other places . Prosecutor stated that having established a branch business in Jubilee-street , Mue-end , he advertised for a person to conduct tbe shop , and was answered by the prisoner , who described himself as an unmarried man , who had been in the same trade himself , but not finding it successful , sold his establishment . The prosecutor accordingly inducted him into the shop at Jubilee-street about three months since , giving him the entire management , but . in taking

      stock on Monday week he discovered so startling a deficiency that he suspected there was foul play , and he proceeded to institute close inquiries . The result of these showed that the prisoner was a married man that since he came into the prosecutor ' s employ , he had set up his . wife in the same description of business in Great Cambridge-street , furnishing her shop by transmitting his master ' s stock from Jubilee-street . —A lad , who acted as messenger at this latter establishment , proved that he was in the babit of taking bars of soap , candles , treacle , washing powder , blacking , and other articles from Jubilee-street to Great Cambridge-street , twice , thrice , and sometimes more frequently during the week . The prisoner always told him on these occasions that if he met Mr . Holdsworth , he was to say

      that he was taking the goods to some other customer . —The prisoner in his defence said , that the goods were not entered in the day book in his own name , they \? en always paid for by his vrife vsith the exception of a quantity sent last Friday , which was yet to be accounted for , but for which he intended to pay up . The reason why he did not put his own name in the book as a customer was , that he knew Mr . Holdsworth would have an objection to his being in business . —The errand boy being again called , said the prisoner , who was in the habit of sleeping at Great Cambridge-street , told him the lady who kept the shop there was his sister , though witness had ascertained since that she was his wife . —The prisoner was remanded , bail being refused .

      MANSION-HOUSE . - The Fatal Affhay in Shoe-Lane . —On Tuesday the investigation into the circYMftStaTMSt * of Uie charge made against Benjamin Cole , City policeman 845 , of having caused the death of William Cogan , in Plumtreecourt , Shoelane , on the morning of Sunday the 6 th of July , was resumed before Mr . Alderman Wilson . The City Solicitor again attended to conduct the inquiry , and Mr . Lewis appeared for the prisoner . Mr . Lewis proceeded to call for the defence the witnesses whose evidence is given in substance below . A model of the court in which the violence is supposed to have taken place was exhibited in the justice room . —John Gale , inspector of the City Police , said : —The model produced is a fair

      representation of Plumtree-court . I see two pieces of card in the model , representing , one of them , a pigeon box , and the other a board in the window of the room inhabited by Long and bis wife , who have been examined in this case . Long ' s house is No . 6 . The house in which I saw the deceased is No . 28 , and a person in Long ' s room could not see the passage of that house . By daylight the door of No . 28 could be seen from No . 6 , but not by night . I cannot say whether the box and board would obstruct the view . Cross-examined by the City Solicitor : The names of the policemen on duty in Plumtreecourt that night , was Cole , 845 , who took one part of the court as far as the steps , and Lockyer , 204 , who has in his beat the place called Holborn-place ,

      m which the house No . 28 is situate . Marshall , policeman 230 , was not upon duty in the court , but I understand he was there . I first heard of the death of the deceased about ten o ' clock in the morning of the Sunday . To tbe best of my knowledge 1 was first told of it by Sergeant Pattison . He simply said , he understood that a man had died suddenly in Plumtree-court , and upon that I instructed him to put tbe matter in possession of the ward authorities . I had heard it rumoured that the death of the man was imputed to the police , but I cannot say who told me so . I heard it from persons I fell in with . The name of a policeman was not mentioned as having committed the aot James Herbert Cook , said ; I am oneof the members of the

      jury who sat upon the body of the deceased . I saw the prisoner in uniform at the inquest . I saw there the witnesses Long and his wife . Long was asked in my presence to point out Cole , who was nearly a yard distant from him . Mrs . Long was near her husband . When Long was asked to point out Cole he was not able in the first instance to do so . I know the position of the house in which Mr , and Mrs . Long lived , and I also know where the deceased lived . It was not possible in my opinion to see from Long ' s house what took place in the passage to the house in which the deceased lived . — Thomas Moore , aged fifteen , brother to Biddy Moore , who gave evidence on the second examination , said : I saw Cole struggling with the deceased

      in the passage to his own house on the night he died . Cole had hold of him by the collar , and was trying to pull him out of tbe passage , and Cogan was trying to keep himself in . I did not see tbe policeman strike Cogan . This was about one o ' clock . I did hot see any violence that I know of by the policeman except the struggling . When I saw him at three o' clock he and 1 were sitting on oneof Mr . Pon ' tifex ' s large wheels in the court . When 1 left him it was half-past three o ' clock . I then went up to bed , leaving him in the court . I saw him climb up one of the lamps in the court at the break out of dayli ght . He got to the top of it . He climbed up the gas pipe which was fixed against the wall . He dropped down from the lamp . He fell upon his knees—not upon his head . His head did not go against the wall . It was then about three o clock—about daylight . It was not a heavy fall . He went up to the lamp to put it out , and he

      did put it out . i did not notice whether he lighted his pipe at the lamp . His legs gave under him when he dropped from the lamp . There is a regular lamp lighter to put out the lamps in the court . 1 cannot tell whether Cogan ' s head when he dropped from the lamp was towards the street or the wall . Mr . Lewis : Did you see him get up another lamo afterwards ? Witness : I did , Johnnv Burke lifted him np to the other lamp . Burke stoo ' d , and Cosan climbed up his back to put out the other lamp and he remained on the other lamp a little while , and Burke and another young chap lifted him down . Ho got down safe and he seemed as well upon coming down from the second lamp as he seemed upon SSSttT rom tbe , , - When he STooKS down from the second lamn Burke said tn him ^ f / re lightheaded . " Th at w s affe ? theft ' He did no become weak after tbe fall as I observed 2 . r K ? t m k 5 aay an wer when Burke said he was lightheaded Burke stood then in his own passage . After he outed ^ d * J » own lighter came np .-Sarah Fountain : I am a married woman and have lived in Plumtree-court No 8 upwards of twelve years . I was up all Saturday " night until four o ' clock on Sunday morning wash . » ag . I have known Cogan about a Wi ghtf i £ w

      binvorj , g unday morning , befdre ' the ' gaslight was P" » out , from my room . I saw him with his right hand upon the iron of the lamp and his left hand leaning over the lamp . When I got into the court I saw that the lamp was out . The court was noisy all ni g ht , but I heard no particular noise that night . —William Schofield , lamplighter , said that on Sunday morning he found two of the three lamps in the court put out . —Here the station book of the district was produced . It contained an entry to the effect that a man named Hogan had died suddenl y that morning at a house in Plumtree-court ; that the ward beudle had been informed of . tbe event , and had sent for Mr . Digby , who examined the body , and expressed an opinion that the deceased

      had not died in consequence of violence . —Joseph Marshall , No . 230—1 was in Plumtree-court athalfpfist one , or twenty minutes to two , on the morning of the 6 th of July . I was called there by Cole . We there found Biddy Moore and some other girls . Lockyer , a police constable , was also there . The girls said , " Here comes the coppers . " They ran up the stairs of No . 28 , Lockyer and myself pursuing them . I went into the room after her , and fetched her down stairs , and her brother then took her home . Neither Cole nor Lockyer were at the time using any violence towards the deceased Cogan . Biddy Moore walked before me , When 1 and Lockyer came down together , Cole was a few doors off . —Wm . Lockyer , police constable 264—1

      saw the deceased in Plumtree-court up to two o ' clock on the morning of his death . He was talking to two others . I said to them , " Come , my lads , it ' s time for you to get away . " They moved away , and when I got to the corner I think I saw them return to the spot where they were standing when I passed them . I do not remember seeing Cogan at No . 28 . I was not at No . 28 , nor did I turn my bull ' s-eye into the passage of 28 . During the time I was in the court I did not see any violence committed on the person of the deceased by Cole or Marshall , I did not commit any myself , I did not pull Biddy Moore down stairs by the hair of her head , though I , in company with Marshall , went up stairs after her . She ' came down assisted by another woman otherwise she would have fallen from top to bottom , being intoxicated . Mr . Alderman Wilson : Supposing any scuffle to have taken place in

      the passage , a policeman using his staff and any person to have called out , " For God ' s sake don't murder me , " must you have heard it ? Witness : I must , I am positive of it . —Several witnesses afterwards spoke to the impossibility of seeing from Long ' s house what occurred up the court , as Long said he had done ; and also to Long ' s inability to point out Cole till that person had been pointed out to him by his wife and another female . —Mr . Pearson then urged the court to send the case before a jury . —Alderman Wilson said : Before I make up mind in this case , I wish to read through tbe whole of tbe depositions taken here , as well as those taken before the coroner , and as the preparation of them must necessarily take a few days , I shall remand the prisoner for a week , —« The prisoner was then remanded upon the former bail . CLEREENWELL . —Fatal Assault . —Ann

      Martindale , an elderly woman , was charged before Mr . Tyrwhitt with violently assaulting and thereby causing the death of SaraH Simmons , at No . 3 , Upper Prospect-plate , K ngsland . —The alleged assault took place on thtllth of July last , from the effects of which the unfortunate deceased lingered and - died on Saturday last , in Hackney union workhouse . Her death tbrough violence was then for the first time made known to the police , when Sergeant Judge , 26 N , instituted an inquiry , and discovert d th it on the day . first mentioned , an altercation was heard between the deceased and . the prisoner , who accused her of striking and beating her child ; that a struggle took place , in which the deceased fell , and called

      out , * ' You will be the death of me , " and on her daughter and a man named Burgess going to her assistance , she complained that the prisoner had thrown her down and injured her side . The defendant was then present and denied that statement , on which the deceased said , "Oh yes , you did do it , " and groaned heavily . —These facts having been deposed to , Sergeant Judge informed the worthy magistrate that tbe surgeon who attended the deceased in her illness was of opinion that death was occasioned through a fracture of the hip . —Mr . Tyrwhitt asked the prisoner what she had to say to the charge?—She cried , and

      stated that the deceased accidentally fell and hurt herself . She denied laying hands upon her . —Mr . Tyrwhitt remanded her until after the coroner ' s inquest . Charob of Rapb , —Robert Nicholson , a repulsive-looking fellow , was charged with a rape on Charlotte Elizabeth Webb , aged 7 , residing with her parents , at No . 4 , Chapel-place , Little Coramatreet , Brunswick-square . —The prisoner is cousin to the child , and was in the habit of visiting her parents , during whose absence he with great violence perpetrated the offence . Her screams brought assistance , and the prisoner wasgivea into custody . —He was fully committed for trial ,

      WANDSWORTH . — The EXTENSIVE RAILWAV Robberies . —Charles Whitcher , greengrocer , and John Saward , of Hereford-place , Commercial-road , East , were again examined upon the charges arising out of the extensive robberies discovered to have been committed on the South Western Rail , way , whose investigation has repeatedly occupied the attention of this court . Upon the present occasion the convict Pamplin , now under sentence of transportation for his share in the gold dust rob bery was examined , and gave evidence , which , if true , would fix the charges upon each of the accused ; the principal facts of his statement , have , however , already been made public and need not be repeated . At the close of tbe proceedings the case was once more adjourned .

      WORSHIP - STREET . — Omnibus Conductors Again . —George Tyssen , conductor of one of tbe Exhibition omnibuses running to the Lower-road , Islington , was charged with the following scandalous conduct towards one of his passengers . Mr . Edward Hoey , landlord of the Beehive Tavern , New North-read , stated , that about eleven o ' clock on the night of Monday , the Uth instant , he hailed the defendant near the Bank , and having ascertained from him that the vehicle passeed his house he was about to enter it , when the defendant pushed him rudely on ene side , and observing in an insulting tone that he was intoxicated , told him that he might ride outside if he pleased . There was not the slightest foundation for such a scandalous

      imputation and he insisted upon entering the vehicle , in which there were only five passengers , but had no sooner taken his seat than the defendant assailed him with the most scurrilous epithets ; and on his demanding his number , refused to exhibit his bad ge . He continued the insulting behavour throughout the journey until he reached Hoxton Church , where the passengers alighted , and the defendant peremptorily ordered him to get out also , although it was at least half a mile from the end of the defendant ' s destination . On his refusing to do so the defendant renewed his offensive conduct , thrust out his tongue , and made a disgusting noise with his mouth , but proceeded a few yards further , when he ordered tho driver to turn the vehicle

      round , and again insisted upon his getting out . To avoid any further insult and annoyance he then did so , although 200 yards from his house , which the vehicle ought to have passed , and again demanded a sight of the defendant ' s badge , which the defendant still refused to exhibit , but he succeded between the gas lamps in obtaining the number of tbe omnibus , and he felt it a public duty to adopt the present proceedings , although the driver had twice called upon him to compromise the case . —In answer to the charge , the defendant made a rambling statement , the subject of which was that plaintiff was intoxicated . This allegation was , however , uis

      proveoyahU as the defendant could not deny the main facts of the charge , Mr . Haramill said , that he felt perfectly satiified , after hearing the evidence , that the charge of intoxication alleged against the complainant was totally without foun * dation , and that the defendant had been guilty of a most gross aud insulting outrage , to mark his sense of which he should commit him , without the imposition of any penalty , for twenty-one days in the House of correction . _ The defendant strongly entreated that the punishment might be commuted for a pecuniary penalty , but the ma gistrate refused to listen to the application , and the defendant was conveyed away in the van .

      gross ouiBAOB . -Mary Anne Reynolds , a now . erful , masculine-looking woman , was placed atthe bar before Mr . Hammill , charged with the following strange outrage upon an elderl y man named Baskett . The prosecutor , who exhibited a serious ffi ° fhJ ? h ? ' * £ icn also B ^ ch contused , stated , that having been ill for some time past , he went out for a walk between six and seven on the En ' i ! rf ning J an , wbile Posing the Cambridge-heath turnpike felt some one touch him on

      we nacu ; he was about to turn round to assertain the cause of it , but before he could do so he was seizedround the throat from behind by theprisoner , who held him firmly in that position with one arm r . ji-- * u r rig ^ baild she Btru <* bim repeal teaiy in the face with some weapon , apparent !? a large street-door key or heavy stone with a sharp edge , and dealt her blows with such force that his cheek was laid open by one of them , and the blood poured from the wound in great profusion down nis clothes . Ho struggled with the prisoner for

      some time to extricate himself from her grasp , but finding his efforts ineffectual , called loudly for the police , and , a constable shortly after making his appearance , the prisoner relinquished her hold of him , twisted him round , and then took to her heels . The witness declared that ho was wholly at a loss to assign any reason for such a singular outrage , as he had not only not offended tbe prisoner in any way , but had never seen her before . — When called upon for her defence , the prisoner , instead of pleading that she was intoxicated , which the constable considered she was , preferred a counter charge against the prosecutor , by declaring

      fire to increase outside this board ; that Ian ™ ought to have been used instead of candles ; and there should have been more brattice , as recom . mended by Mr . Dunn .
