      QUEBS SQUARE . SIosdat . —A Xotoriocs IiifoSTou . — "Ellen Smalhnan , alias ilary Vratkins , a young woman on crutches , with lisr head so enveloped in linen handages that her face was scarcely visible , was cfcargvd with Ifgging . JamcS light , 125 B , stated that nt a little after six on Saturday evening , he was in Queeu ' s-buiMiiigs , Urompton , when he saw defendant go into a dark place and wrap bandages round her head and right arm . She then placet ! herself on ihe side of the footway , with a written label in front of her , on which were the words , " I am entirely deaf . " She hung down her head , and appeared to be very ill ;

      and persons who passed , commiserating her condition , relieves her . Witness then took her iuto custody , when she walked very briskly to the station , and appeared to lisve suddenly recovered . He took the bandage from her arai , and found that there was nothing the mattes with it ; and , on removing tlie cloths from her head , discovered avery tins head of hair , hut no wound or injury of any Ascription . 3 Ir . Bond , observed that it was quite evident that she was dressed up to isjjiose -upon the benevolent , and committed Iwr for fourteen days . Defendant , who never Uttered a syllable during the examination , evidently understood every word , aud on the decision being given immediately left the bar .

      W 0 RSIIIP-STRS 3 T . jIosday . —As A » Tn : i . DurcEi . —Charlotte Turner , a naafly-dressod and rather demure-looking young woman , was placed at the bar , before Sir . Brcughton , charged with having obtained , under false representations , the sum of £ 1 Ivs . froui her late mistress , the wile of r . tradesman named . Mason , in High-street , Shorcililch . It appeared from the evidence of 31 rs . Mason , that about five weeks ago she engaged the prisoner as a domestic servant , having heeu previously assured hy a person of apparent respectability , named lowther , to whom she rclerrsd for a character , that she had served licrfora length of time in a similar capacity , and had triven entire sarisfaction . After she hud ue « i a few days in her service , the prisoner Intimated to her mistress that she had jast receivcil the distressing intelligence of tliesnddc-ii death

      of her father , which tock place at Maidstone , and requested , as she was ausieus to attend his funeral , that she would advance her a small sum of money to procure mourning for the mchiniao-y occasion . Her request having heen at once co'np-ied lrith , the prisoner departed oa her supposed mournful mission , and after remaining nearly a week absent , sfia returned home , and informed her mistress that she had iulluwed her father to tha grave , and that the sad bereavement had caused such a shock toher surviving parent , jli . it her death was almost momentarily expected . On the morning aftsr tlris announcement the prisoner , with every appearance of horror and agitation , communicated to her mistress that she had been visited iu the nigh ! hy the apparition of her mother , and so earnestly entreated permission to pay another visit into the country to satisfy her mind upon the subject , that her proposal wasjmraediately acceded to , and a further sum advanced to enable her to undertake the journey . After the lapse of another -. vtek the prisoner aiaia niada her aupsuaucs , awl apprised her vnistvess

      that her fatal forebodmgs had been realised , as her mother had actually expired at the very moment she received the supernatural warning of the eveut , and that sh « had seen her laid by the side other lamented fethcr . After using every cSort to soothe and traxupiiffi ^ s tlie unhappy Orphan , apparently to UO puvpuc , herbeiisvolcni-aiiati-ess was greatly alarmed at £ adi : i £ nest morning that she had abscoaded during the night , bat after an anxious search she was at length discovered at a public-house iu the City-road , in company of a man with whom it was ascertained she had i-e / n cohabiting on the two previous occasions when rf : 3 ahsantstl herself , and her mistress linrhnj also learned that so far from being dead and buried , hoth her parents were alive and in perfect health , sh » deemed it her duly to givcihc prisoner into custody for the gross imposition she had practised upon her . Mr . i ! ronghton said that a clear case ofoo : ainimj money under false prsienees had been made out against the prisoner , bathe should remand her for a few days , as it was probable that other charges of a similar description would be hroaght forward .

      CL 2 UXKSWELL , Satcsbat . —A Xics LiWTEa . —Mr . James Hall , an attorney , was charged with upsetting the fruit-stall of William Jacques , a hoy in the City-road , and also with having assaulted . Tadd , a policeman of the N division .

He fallowed defend , an * , and advised him to pay the boy for the injury he had sustained , when Ueftuii-. it saitl " you ho d—0 , pay the Lov yuurssif " and , at the same tl :.-. e , he struck the nonstable on the head . IU was taken to the stationhouse , where ha was locked up until tha morning at three o ' clock , when he was hailed out . Tiie prisoner was convicted iu the penalty of 20 s ., which he paid and left tee court . SOTjTHWAR . iv .

She then immediately f = U upon him , sud x'U * her hands in his waistcoat pocket , where lie then had two halt-crown pieces , and three shillings mid sixpence iu silver . He called out for help , a-. vl , on the appearance of a policeman , she ran away . The prisoner was fully committed w Xewgalc for trial .

      Assault . itsd Attempted Robbed ? . —Jamrs Payne , a coarse-looking young i ' eliow , was next placed at the Tiar before Mr . Traill , charged with a saulting and attcsipnn ^ F to rob I > lr . tlo ^ ni iluynolds , a gentleman of independent fortune , on tiie Surrey- side onYatcr-Joo-hinhre .

One of tlicm pushed against him , upon which he remonstrated with them . They then crossed tlie road , and joined company with the prisoner , who followed him through the toll-gate , on the Surrey side of the bridge . After he had walked about a hundred yards from the toU-llOUSC , tllC prisoner knocked him down , and was in the a ; t of snatching Lis watch from Ms waistcoat-pocket , when a

The evidence oi " ihe policeman corroborated that of i » Ir . Reynolds . The prisoner was remanded . "VfEDsrsDAT . —Extbaosdinabx Oase . —Eor . ry Joseph Xillcrby , a youth of seventeen years of age , apprentice to ¦ a printer in t 3 : e e 3 fj-, was brought before Mr . Cottinjliam charged on suspicion with being tlie writer of anonymous letters , addressed to several families reading in the liorough of Southwark , threatening the lives of the parties , and also inclosing poison for the purpose of destroying them . Last weak the churchwardens of St , George ' s parisii , Southwark , made an application at this court Tipoa the suhject , and amongst others produced an auonyjnous letter addressed to Mr . Strud , ihe parish clerk , the miter threatening to set fire to the church if ha did not announce to the congregation on Sua . lav some -vile

      inaaaaiions against the character Of a Mrs . Spriggd , residing m " wlrite-street , in the vicinity of the church . In consequence of the application to the magistrate , the officers of the detective poiice have been engaged in the discovery of tlie aSair , and the result of their inquiries was the apprehension of the prisoner . Tho prisoner is Yather a drcent-looking lad , and on being placed at the for he evinced no fear or alarm . He was accompanied to the court by his father , who is a tradesman in "Whitestreet , nearly opposite to the residence of one of the persons to whom a letter containing poison had been recently -scr . t . Sergeant Kendall , of the detective police , made a statement to the effect that a Toomorial was transmitted to .. ir James Graham sorae time ago , which was aftervrards placed in the i , a « a 3 of tlie commissioners of police , « a that tt contra a represent ! ,. .: of the state of ; £££ «• *«• - * the msm ^ faa , ! andhis family had been " u » a in coiiKd'Hai ; " nf « ... - » ., r miter ti . « j ~ ' threads of an anonymous " ter .

      of the accused , on being placed in tlie hands of the detective officers , was found to bear a strong resemblance to tire writing in the anonymous letters , and this fact led to further hiquiric-.- ' , in the course of which some writing of the prisoner ' s was procured , which bore such a similarity to the oft' ; u .= ivu epistles as to create a very strong b .-li . f that he was the writer of them . On aveeunt occasion it was also ascertained that a letter had l » en posted in the Minories , and that the prisoner was seen near tho spot at that place at the time at which it was dropped in the letter-bos . SeYcr . ll anonymous letters were handed to ihe magistrate , and amongst them one l > y Mr . Samuel Cioater , addressed to his daughter , containing about three quarters of an ounce of poison , and ran thus : — " Sept . o , I ' M .

      "My dear Elizabeth— -If you mix the whitu powder I have enclosed in the letter , you will find it very delicious . It has come from France . I shall call in a few days . Milld you mix the powder directly you receive it , and you will find that it has the flavour of the melon . " Mr . Cotlingham compared the writing of tlie note with a specimen of the prisoner's hand-writing recently procured , and remarked that tlie resemblance was ' certainly very strong . Evidence was here adduced that the powder contained in the letter had since been analysed , and was found to be oxalic acid . Another letter was read by the magistrate addressed to a Miss lili / abeth Spriggs , describing that the writer of it was aware that esertions trcromade for a discovery ; that he was aware the odleei-s wore in seareli of liiin , and had seen them on the preceding night making inquiries at Mrs / Spriggs ' s , but that lie

      would foil them in all their attempt ? . That he was aware a reward of £ 40 had been offered to discover the writer , but that if it was £ 1 , 001 ) it would not have the desired effect . The writer then expresses his determination not to stop until he has sacrificed some of the inhabitants of the parish , whose names ho inserted , for their ollkv . ousness in attempting to discover tho author of tlie letters . Another note was also produced , the writer vowing vengeance against Mr . Cloater , for preventing his daughter from taking the powder . A copy of the prisoner ' s hand-writing , with tlie words "Miss Elizabeth Sprijjss , " written that morning , was compared with the supzrscriptiuu on the above letter , ami was found to be a very close resemblance . Several anonymous letters were produced which had been written lo Mr . Kemble , a hop merchant , of a threatening nature , and one of them , containing poison , was addressed to his wife while he was in the country . The letter purported to bo from a clerk in Mr . Kcmble ' s employ , describing thai his employer had dhucted 1 dm to enclose Mrs . Kemble some powders of a

      I vury efficacious description , whicli he recommended her ! to take as soon as possible , ami that they would benefit her health . Tlie chief part of tho letters had been dropped in Mr . Kemble's own letter box , until tho writer finding a . watch was kept there , then regularly posted thcin . Fortunately Mr . Kemble did not adopt tho advice contained iu tho note , and other threatening lotters were sent , when the infamous writer found his plan frustrated . Mr . Howling , chemist and druggist , of Kent-street , produced some threatening epistles which he also received , in consequence of his being one of the parishioners who had recommended a reward of £ 10 for the discovery of the writer . The language in the letters was of a most infamous description . Mr , Cottingbam asked tha prisoner whether he wished to say anything at tho present stage of the inquiry , and his reply wa . 5 that he did not wish to mnho any statement at present . Mr . Cottingbam said that he should remand the prisoner until Monday , hut that ha had no objection to accept of two sureties of £ 100 each for Ids appearance on that day . VTUAMES .

      TnssnAV . —ExTHAoimujAas Chasoe of Rape , — Samuel-Hart , a grave-looking man , 50 years old , and nearly bald-headed , was brought before Mr . BnHantine , charged with forcibly violating the person of Mary Ann Dodd , his wife ' s sister , aged 18 years . Mr . l ' elham stated the case for the prosecution . He said this was a most painful and extraordinary case . Tho prisonar was a painter and glazi-.-r , and lived in Greenwood-street , Mileend . The girl whom ho was charged with abusing was a cripple , and had been afflicted with a disease of the hip from the time of her birth ; and one of her legs being shorter than the other , she could not walk without tlm assistanca of a crutch . When she lay down she could not rise again without a great effort , unless she was assisted . Some time ago the girl went to the house of her sister , tlie prisoner ' s second wife , as a sort of domestic

      and to do needle work . On the night of Tuesuay , the loth ult ., the prisoner came home with his wife at a very late htur . The girl was sitting up for them and let them in , and they all went up stairs to their bed rooms at the same time . The girl's bedroom was on the same floor , and adjoined the prisoner ' s bedroom . She slept with the prisoner ' s thr * e children . At daybreak , on the morning of the 17 th , the girl was awoke by the prisoner , who liad obtained admission to her bed , and he then committed the offence laid to his charge . The girl screamed loudly for help , indeed as loud as she was able , and the children awoke and began crying . The prisoner immediately left her aud returned to his own room . His wife , it appeared , slept so soundly that she did not hear the screams of her sister , and was not made acquainted with the affair until several days afterwards . The girl was so overcome with shame and fear that she made no communication to her sister in the house or to any one else , until Sunday last , when she informed another sister and her father that the prisoner had abused her , and begged of them to

      obtain redress . Her father promised that he would attend to Iter wishes , but ho had not sought redress for his injured daughter , and took no steps in the matter at all . Under these oireunietJinees lha sUlsr had consulted him ( Mr . l'elham ) , and he advised that the man should he immediately given into custody . —Mary Ann Dodd was then sworn . Iler testimony confirmed the statement of her solicitor . She added that tho prisoner had since made impreper advances towards her , which she had resisted . The prisoner , with much animation , said the charge was false , and trumped up against him by the prosecutrix and her sister who had given evidence . He was a respectable and a moral man , and had nevar any idea of committing the offence laid to his charge . The j irl had rohbed him zo a great extent , though he had supported and cherished her , andher sister Caroline was a common prostitute , who formerly walked Bishopsgate . He begged of the magistrate to allow him to put in bail and obtain professional advice , for he was an innocent man . The prisoner was remanded , but admitted to bail , himself in £ 80 , aud two sureties in £ 10 each .

      A Miscrsaxt . — Tns IIojiAJiirr or the Toon . — William Ilazle , an ill-tempered though well-dressed fellow , residing at 11 , Porlman-place , Stepney , was charged with cruelly maltreating Susannah , his wife . — The complainant , a . delicat » interesting young woman , stated that she had been four years married to the prisoner , and during the whole of the period he had treated her with most unrelenting cruelty , not from any sudden excitement , but calmly and deliberately . On Sunday week he got a piece of rope , which he made up hi the form of a whip , and on the same evening he took the screws from the hinges of tho door , whicli he again temporarily fastened up with nails . About four o ' clock next morning he burst in the door , and beat her cruelly with the rope which he had prepared . On another occasion she gave him in charge for beating her with a thick

      bamboo cane , which he split to pieces on her person , but on his promising amendment before the inspector the charge was not pressed . On Wednesday last he came homo in ill humour , and d—d tho infant who was crawling on tho ground . "She told iiirn not to do 50 , as his curses would fall upon himself , when he followed her into the kitchen , drew her along by the hair of the head , and gave her several blows and kicks which cut and marked her severely . He neier let her see the colour of his money , but left her and her children to starre , so as that they were compelled to live on the casual bounty of the neighbours . Anne Pearson , a poor woman living in a house to the rear of the prisoner ' s , proved that for the last three mouths , during which she lived in the place , the prisoner treated his wife with unremitting cruelty . On the previous Wednesday she showed witness her legs ,

      whicli were all over bruises , and in gores of blood . The complainant was a most domestic woman , who never left her home , but she and her children were half starved by the prisoner , aud witness often assisted her with food out of her own scanty means . John Pearson , husband to the last witness , stat « d that on Saturday hi saw a stick rise and fall through tho window of the prisoner ' s house as if some person was beating another insid * with gre * t violence . The house was at some distance , and as the door was shut , witness heard no cries . —Mr . Ballauline You and your wife assisted ihis poor woman!—Witness : Oh , sir , dou'tspeak of that , I'd blush to mention it ; 'twas a trittlo—a mere trifle . I wish it had heen more , poor thing , she sub .-ists on too little . This little touch of

      generous sympathy and un 3 st » ntatious humanity thrdled through the court with an eltctric effect . —Mr . Ballantine ordtred'the prisoner to pay a line of £ o , or be imprisoned for two months , besides giving security to keep the peace in future . The prisoner was locked up in default . Tho worthy magistrate subsequently ordered five shillings to b * given to the complainant , and * like sum to the poor hut worthy man who had relieved her in her necessities . —Pearso . i : No , your worship ; I am obliged lo you . My wife . i ml I can earn our little morsel and eat it in peace . Giv ; i- - .-. 11 to the poor woman . —Mr . Ballantine highly com . > i _ -: x :-. d the noble spirit which exhibited itself in so low a > tat . - , and was sure the honest fellow ' s own emotions w „ -re the best reward he could reciivc .

      Death Of Earl Spexceh.—Earl Spencer, Bet...

      Shut . Ciio . MffKi . ii have a Statue ?— ( l-rom tne Dublin Nation . )—•• Decimus" has sent us a heap of rabid trash , calling upon the Irish representatives to be in their phse . * , and vole against a statue to Oliver Cromwell in the new English House of Parliament . What is it to us what statues are set up in , or omitted from , teit place ? Our concern is with tlio adornment of a totally different scnate-heuse . But if we had to deal with the question , the omission of Cromwell out of a gallery of English rulers , because of his persecutions iu Ireland , would bo a piece of lamentable absurdity . Why ' arc they all Cromwclis ? In what respect was ho worse than Ifanry , who planned the pirate invasion—than Edward , who made it penal to be an Irishman in Ireland , and

      rated the life of a native at a fine of a few shillinga —than Richard , who granted the " entire dominion of Ireland for ever" to one of tho minions of his pleasure—than Efeibeth , who made the fair iieMs of Munstcr a desert strewn with corses and ashesthan that cold pedantic tyrant , James , who stripped their lands from : i fourth part of the people , as a highwayman strips a traveller of . his purse—than Iiia son , the false , soulless miscreant , who sold them justice as a fixed tariff , and bavin ; clutched tho money , violated the terms of his unkingly bargain . For the overthrow of this ' man ( ludicrously called iu iioiiio grave books a martyr ) , Oliver Cromwell dost l'vos well of the people of England , and of us

      deserves no worse than the rest of his class . But if Englishmen permit tho man who trampled down an odious tyranny that sported with their lives , liberty , aud honour , the only true ruler they had for centuries , to be excluded from the muster of their sovereigns , they will earn the contempt of the world . Let no man , who does not know ' the circumstances well , venture to decide on such a question from hearsay and prejudice . If Cromwell was a knave and ahypocrito a thousand times over , he did substantial " service to the cause of human liberty , and in nothing more than in having ( as the elder Boswcll once told ]) r . Johnson ) " taucht kings that they have a joint in their necks . "

      Irish Liberalism—Tub Pkiests axd the "Nation . " —The party of which tlie late Mr . Davis was the head , now lies under great suspicion in Ireland , on account of its supposed liberal tendenciss . It is not so intensely Catholic as tlie other Repeal organs , and has not hesitated to approve of the New Colleges' Bill , even though the government has refused to place them under the exclusive controul of any priesthood . It is even said to have been a mooted point with the Committee of the Repeal Association , whether the late Mr . Davis and the other members of the Young Ireland party should not bo openly denounced as the advocates of infidelity , because of their

      support of tho " Infidel Colleges' Bill . " As it is , the priest party of Ireland is labouring hard to undermine the influence of the Nation , ^ and a new paper is just about to be started in opposition to it , which is reported to be under tho patro ' nngo of the O'Connelis and the Itoman Catholic clergy . A good seed , however , has already been sown in Ireland by the labours of Mr . Davis and his coadjutors ; they have learned the Irish people to think and act for themselves ; and , doubtless , there nre those yet surviving in Ireland , who are able and willing to carry on tlie good work , and prevent tho popular movement from becoming a mere agitation for the aggrandisement or the establishment of a uarticular priesthood . —Leeds Times .

      ¦ C vtmosf to the Punuc—No sooner is a medicine well established in public favour than a host of imitators spring up , who , for the sake of profit not only wrong the proprietor of the genuine medicine , but inflict a serious injury on the unwary purchaser of their base counterfeit trash . These remarks apply to the remedy which is so well known as " Abernethy's Pile Ointment . " This excellent remedy for Piles has been established by undoubted proofs of its efficacy . Purchasers may be able to detect these frauds by asking particularly for " Abernethy's Pile Ointment" in covered pots , price 4 s . Cd . ( which is the lowest price the proprietor is enabled to sell it at owing to tho great expense of the ingredients ) , and observe the name of C . King is on the government stamp pasted round each pot . Sufferers from piles will not repent giving the Ointment a trial .

      Child Murder.—On Thursday, Mr. Mills, Deputy Coroner For West Middlesex, Held A Nrotractcd Inn Nest

      Child Murder . —On Thursday , Mr . Mills , deputy coroner for West Middlesex , held a nrotractcd inn nest

      At The Coach And Llorscs, Air-Street, Ha...

      at the Coach and llorscs , Air-street , Hatton-garden , on tne body of William Hill ; aged six months . — Elizabeth Hill , a very young woman , mother of deceased , examined : My husband is a glass-cutter , and we reside a t No . 20 , in this street . About eleven o ' clock on Saturday night last I left the baby well and hearty in bed , and went into Leatlior-Jaiie to buy it some milk , It was then fast asleep . I returned in fifteen minutes and found it dead in bed . The child was not born in wedlock , and my prescnthusband is not the father of it . It was born at my mother '? , 15 , Somer . s-strect , over the way . There was no one in theroomwlicnlfoundtiieeliikldead . Iliad not loft it a

      quarter of an hour altogether . When I went on t for the milk I left my husband in the room quite sobei " , and standing with his back to tlie fire . As I was going out , I asked him to go on an errand to my mother ' s , in Somers-stveet , and ho said he would . When 1 came back he was gone . When 1 took the child from the bed it made a strange noise in the throat once , and then died . On passing my hand over its head , it had no cap on , I found on the left side , behind and above the car , a bump as big as the half of a goodsized egg , and a spot of dry blood on the cheek . I could see it was a bump from a hit . There was another reddish bump at the back of the head , not so large as the other . My husband was the iirst person to come into tho room , almost directlv

      after me . I said to him , " Baby is dead ; it has been killed some how or other—run and fetch mother . " He replied , "Isit quite dead ? " I answered , " Yes , for some minutes . " Ho went and fetched Catherine Shepherd from my mother ' s ( my mother not being . it home ) , and ho said he had been to fetch Mr . Mullins , surgeon , of Leather-lane , but that lie was not at home , lie went out again and fetched a doctor ( the summoning officer said it was a non-medical man ) from Uatton-wall , who merely looked at the child , aud said that it had died ol * inflammation of the chest , and that the bumps on the head were the result of convulsions . When the doctor was gone I said to my husband , " If you have done it , tell me . " He said , " 1 have not touched the child . "

      I afterwards said , in tho presence of witnesses , " You wicked wretch , you have killed the baby . This is the night you long wished for . " He made no answer . — The Coroner : What did you mean by saying to your husband , •'« The nigh ' * you wished for is come ?"Witness : Because lie frequently ill-used and threatened the child . About a month ago , in the midiile of the night , tlie child being ill and crying at the time , he said if I did not keep it still lie would dasli its brains about . I told him 1 could not help its crying , and that if he hit it , I should hit him . He then struck at the baby , but hit mo , and I had a struggle with him to prevent him hitting the child . He hit me on the side of the head and raised a great lump . He frequently ill-used me as well as the baby . — Cross-examination in chief resumed : About " two months ago , during the night , he got out of bed , and thinking I was asleep , lie pinched a piece out of tho

      calf of the baby ' s right leg . Tlie wound did not heal until last week . 1 took the child to Mr . Mullins , surgeon , who ordered me to poultice the wound , and asked how I could live with such a vagabond . I also went to complain of my husband to Olcrkcmvcll police-court , but they told me 1 must get a warrant , which I could not do for want of money . After ho had pinched the child I said to him , " How could you hurt the poor child , how could you be so brutish ?" He answered , " Before I do anything better to it , 1 will do something worse very likely , " A month alter our marriage he gave the child a black eye , and in a fortnight after that he began to threaten it . He once hit the child in the stomach whilst it was lying on the floor , and it was very sick for two or three days afterwards . I have nothing more to say . —After hearing the evidence of other witnesses , the jury , without more than a moment ' s deliberation , returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against William Hill .

      Death op a Husbaxd and Wipe . —On Thursday Mr . Baker held un inquest at tho King ' s Arms , Prospect-place , Bcthnal-grccn , on view of tho body of Mr . Charles Anderson , aged fifty-three years . It appeared by the evidence of several witnesses that deceased had formerly carried on the business of . a master baker in the parish of Hackney . He subsequently became reduced ; was obliged , after a series of calamities , to serve as a journeyman , and then took to drinking . On Tuesday sc ' nnight his wife died suddenly , and it being alleged that her

      death had been occasioned through his ill-treatlucufc , an inoucst was held on Friday last only on her body , when there being no evidence to substantiate such a statement , the jury returned a verdict of natural death . This circumstance had preyed much upon deceased ' s mind , and his bod y was discovered floating on the- Regent ' s-canal , on Wednesday morning , near the Bethnal-green workhouse There being no evidence to show how lie came into the water , the jury , under the coroner ' s direction returned a verdict of 1 < ound Drowned . '

      A 1 ' iciit at a Cbapeiu— A regular row occurred on Sunday morning last , at the Primitive Methodist Chapel , Dawgrcen , Dcwsbury , in consequence of one of the mortgagees iwho is also one of the trustees having sold lus mortgage to another sect ( it i said the Baptists ) and engaged to give possession to their preacher on Sunday morning last .

      Worship-Street. Tmmsday.— Tniikatkxixr. ...

      WORSHIP-STREET . TmmsDAY . — TniiKATKxixr . Letters . —Mr . Yann , a solicitor , attended before Mr . Bronghton , accompanied by Mr . Thomas Auvacho , a master weaver , living in Manchester-street , Bethnal-green , in whose behalf he requested tho magistrate to advise and assist liim under tiie following circumstances : —Mr . Vann stated that his client , Mr . Auvache , had given some important evidence at the trial of James Tapping , the man who was executed at tlie Old Bailey , in the earlv part of the present year , for the murder of Emsia Whitov . a young woman to whom he had paid his addresses ; and after adverting to the fact which had been elicited during the preliminary investigation of that melancholy case , that the mind of the wretched criminal had been in tiie iirsfc instance -n

      inflamed and exasperated against his unfortunate victim by receiving a number of anonymous letters impugning her character , the learned gentleman proceeded to . state that the subject of his present application referred to a scries of similar communications which had been sent to his client respecting a young person named Brooks , to whom he had for a considerable period paid honourable attention , and was shortly to be married . Tlie anonymous correspondence of which he complained dated its commencement from the very week in which Tapping was executed , and the letter having been for some time confined merely to vague hut most virulent imputations upon the young woman ' s reputation , which his client was perfectly satisfied were wholly

      false , ho paid no attention to them ; but fcjicii \ concealed laitluir having lately given expression to most alarming invectives against the object of his iiUectimiH , and in direct and unambiguous terms incited him to murder her , his client felt that it was high time to take some decisive stops for the discovery of the ohemler , and obtained legal assistance for that purpose . The anonymous assailant , however , appeared by some means to have become apprised of the course ho had adopted , for on the day after his client had placed the matter in his ( Mr . Vann ' s ) hands , he received another letter of a very alarming tendency , in which the writer , after vowing the most deadly vengeance against his intended wife , expressed

      his determination , should Mr . Auvacho proceed any further in the matter , or attempt to raise his hand or voice for the young woman ' s protection , to lio in wait for him , and _ dash out his brains ; and concluded by declaring that fie was fully prepared to expiate the crime upon the scaffold ; and advised him to take this as a serious and final warning of the author ' s intentions . Tho system of malignant and unrelenting persecution to which his client and Miss Brooks had been subjected , had occasioned the greatest apprehension and alarm ™ oth to themselves and their respective families , and he considered his own and the young woman ' s life in

      danger .- —Mr . Vann then handed to the magistrate a packet of letters relating to tho subject of the application , after perusing some of which , Mr . Broughton said that the feelings of apprehension under which the applicant was labouring were certainly fully justified by the menacing tendency of the letters which had been produced ; tiie last of whicli in particular contained a direct threat against his life ; and lie should , therefore , order Fitzgerald , the warrant officer , to use tho most vigilant efforts to discover their author , if possible ; and in that event he would instantly issue a warrant for his apprehension . The applicant thanked the magistrate for his attention , and left the court with his solicitor .

      CLERKENWELL . Thursday . —Assault . —Charles Soamcs and his wife were charged with an assaulton an old man . The prosecutor ' s head was frightfully lacerated , and tho side of his face was swollen and bruised very sadly . He stated that in the evening he went to the defendant's house and _ a ^ ked for payment of a sum of money that was due to him . The woman answered him at the door , and first abused him in the coarsest manner , aud then fetched a poker and beat him with it about the head . A police-constable was brought to

      the spot , but the prisoners had escaped , and it was some time before their retreat was ascertained . Before being captured they ma-de a desperate resistance , and the woman Mcleod tha officer so severely as to incapacitate him from duty for some days to come . The man ' s defence was that the prosecutor had induced his wife to get drunk in his house , and spend between £ 8 and £ -0 , and this caused her to become exasperated when she saw him in her sober moments . He denied having done more than endeavour to save his wife from being locked up . The prisoners were committed te the House of Correction for fourteen days .
