      geon , in consequence went to the prisoner Jaques ' s house about three o ' clock , and saw Jaques with a coal can in hia hand going to the coal place , and told him he was informed hy Mrs . Lister that Mary " llodgsen was about to be confined . Jaques told him she had gone to lie down , as aha was not well , and tliero TraB no occasion for him . Ho went away for the constable , and returned in a quarter of an hour , and he then found both prisoners sitting opposite the fire as de « eribed by the la * f witness . He said to the female prisoner , ' How do you do , Mary ? " and she answered , " I am better than I have been . " He then said to the prisoners he suspected they were endeavouring to conceal the birth of Mary Hodgson ' s child , and Jaques answered " Nothing of the sort ; you may search the houie . " He then remarked on the crackling of the fire , and stuck his stick iuto it and felt something

      soft . He then took a coal off the fire with the tongs , and took from underneath the head , chest , and heart of a newly-born infant chUd , partly consumed . After this Mra . Lister saw the female prisoner alone , and she told her that she felt ill , and went upatair 3 tobed , and was delivered of a child on the floor of her room ; that she knocked for Jaques to come up , and said to aim when he came into her room , " Now it is come . " He asked her , " Where is it ? I'll soon do for it . " She said to him , " Don ' t hurt it ;" and he took it and wrapped it in a piece of linen and threw it out amongst the kindling in the coal-hole . She after * wards told Elizabeth Bracewell , another neighbour , that she had been confined , and that Jaques bad taken the child , as she had before stated , and then undressed her and put her to bed . A short time afterwards he went upstairs ,

      desired her to get up , dressed her again , and told her to go down stairs and walk about , and nobody would think anything amiss . She also told witness that after the child was found in the fire ahe asked Jaques , " Now what must we do ? we shall be hanged or transported , " and he told her to say she knew nothing at all about it . —The jury found the prisoners Guilty , recommending the female prisoner to mercy on the ground that she had acted under the influence of the prisoner Jaques . —His lordship then sentenced the prisoner Hodgson to be imprisoned three calendar months in the House of Correction , and the prisoner Jaques to be imprisoned twelve calendar months with bard labour , saying he much feared the female prisoner ' s statement to be true , and that her belief that the child was born alive was correct . His was a very bad case . —The prisoner Jaques was removed protesting his innocence .

      HTJSTIXCDON . BuR « uRY . —James Humberstone , 40 , and Robert Stretton , 32 , were indicted for burglariously entering the house of Alice Watts at Overton Longville , on the 10 th of January , 1 S 51 , and stealing therein £ 13 10 s . Gd . in money and a variety of silver and pUted articles . —John Hall was examined as an approver , together with his mistress , Jane Spechly . It appeared tbat Mrs . Watts kept the lock or " stanch" on the river , and received the tolls , which she paid into the office at Peterborough every Saturday . According to Hall ' s statement , Humberstone , Stretton , and a third man , known to him only as " the tinker , " agreed to break into " the stanch" on Friday night , the 10 th of

      January , and having armed themselves with a gun , a boathook , and a plough coulter , commenced to break open the door . A man summoned them from a window , and was answered by a volley of stones . After this the door gave way , and three men rushed in , one of whom was recognised by the foreman as Stretton . The house was soon robbed of its valuables , and while Mrs . Watt 3 and the man shivered upsuirs the thieve 3 ate and drank everything they could lay hands on . In further corroboration of Hall ' s story a conversation was proved between Humberstone and Stretton at the loek-up house , in which Hall ' s name was mentioned in connexion with themselves and the " stanch . "The jury found both the prisoners Guilty , and they were sentenced to be transported for life .
