Tliey considered , that she-might have had the poison administered to her , and then to have been : taken to the : place where' she was found ; aud from time to time Jfaey have expressed a wish to go on withthe inquiry ,-but have received no attention whatsoever from the county cnoner ; who treat / d tho . matter as if it were settled altogether . As a last resource , the jury have now memorialised Sir James Graham u pon the subject , who has'answered them to the effect that necessary steps will be taken to . have a full inquiry ; into the circumstances of the case , and that no further delay shall take place ; so that Mr . Carttar , the , coroner , will now be obliged to proceed with the investigation , which is at present wrappedin obscurity , and the inhabitants of Bromley will be relieved from their present state of excitement . Thirty-one pounds of Shropshire iron have been made into uw vpivard . * of one hur , drcd and eleven miles inlength ; and so fine was the fabric , that a part of it was converted , in lieu of { h , © usual horsehair , into a barrister ' s wig >

The coach was driven . by-Fatrick Shanlev , a well known whip ,, and , a very civil , bbliairix oersbn . who was

      much , esteemed , by all who travelled on his road . Everything went oh well until about ' two ' o ' clook , when the . vehicle had arrived within two miles of , Castlebkney , where it was ' upset , arid Shanley was killed on the spot . Mr . Calulfgives a'truly horrifying description of the accident' He says that at thes ' fage before . they came . to Castleblariey , four blind horses were put . to . the coach , and as the night was very dark it was with considerable difficulty tliat Shanley managed theni . On approaching the spot where tho accident occurred ,. there is a ' curve in the r oad . ' atul then a straight line . Just after passing the curve there was a large heap of stones on' the ' side ofthe way , and to avoid coining in contact with that , Shanley kept the opposite side , and on this portion of tne road there was a deep cut of which he was ignorant .

      " *¦ The ute Case of Ouiuaos ano Robbery . —Caution to Families in-Selectisg Servasts . —At the Lambeth ; Police-office on Monday . Mr . ' Kei-by , the superintendent of the Northampton police force , attended before Mr , Henry , to . give some fads relative to the . prisoner Smith , alias . Eales , who had ! been committed from this court on Friday last on a charge of going to the house of Mr . Ilamblin , and by threats —presenting . a pistol and dagger ,, extorting a £ 10 note . Mr . Kerby stated that Smith , alias Eales , had , in the year 1842 , been tried arid convicted of a burglary and robbery near Towcester , and sentenced to ten years' transportation , but had managed to effect his escape from on board one . of the hulks off

      Portsmouth . Besides tins he : ( Mr . Kerby ) held in his iiands a warrant for his apprehension on a charge of daring highway robbery , but he supposed there would be no use or opportunity of ssrvingit on him , as the charge upon which he had been committed appeared so conclusive as . to leave very little doubt of his conviction . , Since , the commitment of the prisoners- Smith and . Jones , a discovery of a singular kind as connected , with their case , has been made . On the discovery ofthe . robbery Inspector , Campbell called at the house of Mr . Hambliri to make the necessary inquiries about it ; and , while proceeding with those inquiries , he expressed , a wish to examine the servant . His desire was met by ! a decided declaration that . there was not the slightest

      necessity for doing so , as they received the highest character with the young woman , and that there was not the slightest ground-ibr such a suspicion .. Indeed , some members . of the family expressed themselves very strongly upon the subject , and said it was too much the . practice ; with officers to cast unjust aspersions upon the characters of servants tlie moment any thing improper occurred , and appeared really very , very angry . Since the commitment of the prisoner circumstances came to the knowledge of Mr . Campbell which induced , him to question the servant , and after , . some hesitation she acknowledged that she was the niece , of the female prisoner named Jones : that Jones had called upon her at the " house

      of her master on the Sunday night preceding the robbery ; that she had left the . house with her under tlie pretence of going to church , and that finding Smith waiting close to . the house for therii they all then walked together as far . as the Elephant and Castle , when they had something to drink .- ; On the evening of the robbery and outrage the , , servant left home to go to church . rand Mr . Campbell ascertained that she did attend divine . service . Smith , since his apprehension ; and subsequent to his first and second examination , sent a letterto Mr . Henry , iii which he acknowledged that the woman , Jones was his wife , and expressed his sorrow for denying the fact When it had been stated te his worship by his wife . , „
