jIe . Thomas Cooper , and Mb . 0 Cost-job . —in relation to the statement made by Mr . O'Connor at Manchester _, affecting Mr . Cooper , we have received the following from Mr . O'Connor : —Ever anxious to make atonement where I have committed error , _^ c _ven under justifiable apprehension , I lose not a moment in testifying my sorrow at having done an injustice to Mr . Cooper—au injustice arising from error , and not from any desire to ' give him even a moment ' s pain . "When I stated the ' substance of a letter ( written by Cooper to Mason ) , to the Manchester Council , I was not then aware of the -feet that Cooper ' s hostility to me was based upon misrepresentations made to him from without ; aud that Ms desire to "destroy my influence" arose from the -fact of his being led to believe that , but for me ,
Sharman Crawford's motion , to stop the supplies , would have received universal support , which would have eventuated in the success of the people ' s Charter . These , and many such representations , very naturally created a hostility in Cooper ' s mind , which I am now more than Trilling to ascribe to a sincere devotion to principle , _rither than _personal hostility . I "know the snfifcrin _** -s of a mind , firm in principle , while subjected to the agonies of incarceration .. I acknowledge the perfect right and justice , nay , the absolute necessity , of -usingevery endeavour to "destroy my Influence , " if an opinion is entertained that that exercise has been nsed injuriously to the democratic principle : and 1 Can only say , that so far from now entertaining any , the _sUf & test , Ul-will towards Mr . Cooper , I feel for
liim an increased affection and attachment ; and , according to the good old Catholic custom of paying Destitution to the _' injured . I beg to put my name down for £ 1 towards the Cooper Testimonial ; and further to state , thatl shaH have great pleasure in meeting him at the door of his prison upon the day of liberation , ihere to make a _pcrsoi-al apology , and to ask pardon for any pain that I have caused him . I trust that he trill receive this apology with morepleasure , as it has _-notucen sougntfor by any party , but has been induced 6 y c _&* ctimstancc » communicated to me , of which Mr . Cooper is not cognisant . Fbabgds O'Coskob . Mb . 1 ) . Koss , Mb . John _Watkiks , and the "Pair - Plat" Ma * or Lloyd ' s Weekly Newspaper . —The following letter in relation to the gross personal attacks
weekly made by the malignant and venomous John "Watkins , was addressed to the Editor of _LToyd ' s Weekly Newspaper , by Mr . David Boss of Leeds . Its publication was * declined , on the ground that " the columns of that paper were never intended to be made _-flie vehicle of mere personal controversy ! nor conld the Editor permit them to become such" !! Mr . Ross lias since sent the letter to us , with a request that it may be published in the Star . That request we cheerfiuly comply with ; thanking Mr . Boss -for his bold and plain outspokenness : —To the Editor Of IJUmoVs _WeeHy Papcr _.-r-Sir , since you have so abnndantly proved your "liberality , " by publishing the letters aud addresses wliich have ftom time to time emanated from a party _callins themselves - " the
Independent Chartists , I am led to hope you win , m justice to all parties concerned , allow me to express my opinions on certain subjects , to which the said letters and addresses refer . I may preface my observations by declaring myself a Chartist ; oue in whom the love of principle is stronger than the pleadings of party . Up to this period I nave suppressed every painful emotion which the perusal of those letters has awakened within me ; but believing that their author is ia reality a foe to Chartism—forwhothathasreadhis vindictive epistles can doubt it _IS—I am anxious to let the public know somewhat more of _"LiCTOR , " whose diatribes have so often -figured in your columns . This omnipotent dictator , when stripped of his disguise , is none other than " plain _JohnWa _lkms , '' better known as " Pious JcHm Watkins . "
At one time he professed to be the devoted friend of "feargus O'Connor : now he is his vengeful and vindictive foe . Soman save liimself could invent such ungenttemanly epithets as he from time to time applies to that gentleman . Such is the refinement of his vocabulary , that thief and swindles are the terms fee most frequently makes use of . He must either have associated with very low company , or have very _Utd-Ti-espei-t for good breeding ; or he would not thus willingly degrade himself in the eyes of an unpre- j _juuiced public . Truly he is an _extraorduiary characier ; and thus may , thefebre , merit some little _,
conaderabon . I amnotabouttobecomeMr . O'Connors apologist . Those who know him best-will judge rightly between him and the huge calumniator : but I mean io put the Chartist public in possession of certain facts which Mr . "JHct _^ may digest if he can , or deny at his leisure . In the first place I mean to take this Hercules by the beard , by telling " him that the whole of his political career has been remarkably absurd and ridiculous . I know that he ought not to be censured for this— - ' tis "his nature , or infirmity . His mind is so corrosive , that he might have teen fed during childhood on sops Steeped in vinegar . Minds so constituted arc ever known to-
" Wither at another ' s joy , And hate that excellence they cannot reach . " Tins will account for many of his remarkable inconsistencies , to a few of which I now invite the attention of your readers . "Kichard , I > nke of Gloster , " must have been the model which _"Uctor" has copied through life , lake his prototype , he affect _etl to "be most austere ; and actually undertook a pilgrimage to York ' s venerable city . Doubtless yon expect he went to visit some of the saints ; but , in truth , his visit was one of condolence to O'Connor ' . ! Thus commenced the first act of his political life . Those who have read his rhapsodies published at that time , will remember how extravagant were the praises he lavished on the "Lion of Chartism ¦? praises lavished simply because he had an object
in view . When it was said that Mr . 0 Gonner was _msdang riches out ofthe Star , _XVsfkms undertook to defend him , denying on his own knowledge that such -was the fact . These things are matters of history ; and cannot be doubted now . At that time he literally worshipped the man whose destruction he has ¦ _-face panted for , and struggled so earnestly to obtain . Tn _lltll this specious dissembler was _fearful that he was abeut to die . Nothing was heard of then but sympathy for the Chartist saint He was so grateful to those he now calls the O'Connorite Chartists , that ha wrote cue sermons , which he bequeathed as a " legacy to the peop le . '' Had he died then , many would have believed in his political integrity , who have since been eompeUed to consider liim a disappointed adventurer . In
bis sermons he spoke largely of brotherly love and christian charity ; both of which virtues he has since practised about as much as his prototype "Dick , " whose policy he seems to have adopted to the letter . Amongst other -things , ho has accused Mr . O'Connor of wanting to sell the Chartist prisoners of Lancaster . I was one of the fifty-nine tried there ; and I have the gratitude to thank Mr . O'Connor for the extraordinary exertions that he then made to save the movement onthe one hand , and _rescuethe prisoners on the other . Doubtless "Mr . "IAcwt" would have dramatised tbe thing , had some twenty followed the Welsh patriots , out of whose sufferings he managed to wring a penny or two , _ij dramatising their sufferings . Is he disappointed that he conld not make merchandise of our connections ?
"i « ft > r' *' uas never told the public what nrst induced him to assail Mr . O'Connor . Kay , more , he has no with to ten * it . However , I'll tell it fbr him . Some time In February , 18 * 3 , whilst the Lancaster trials were pending , Mr . Watkins wrote a scurrilous letter against - "ie Executive . The following week Mr . O'Connor announced that no more of _Watikins ' fl _philHpics should be published in the Star ; and from that moment Watkins "has been distilling his very blood in venom in order to injure O'Connor . Prior to this there was never a more time-semng , contmptible sycophant , than this Watkins , in connection with the cause of Chartism . I do not -wonder at his urgency in wanting to get rid of O'Connor . "He may well" impeach him , and bid Mm be gone , because O'Connor ' s very presence must be a
continual reproach to him . He knows how much he has striven to injure him ; and to know that the object of \ a » envy , and the Star , are -fixed In London now , chafes him to madness . He has forgot his canting and praying now , and his whole existence is spent in seeking to _gw- _^ maUeious re venge . He a Chartist!—he would annihilate it to-day , if he could by so doing destroy the Star ana O'Connor . A word to _conclusion to the "Independent Chartisto . " Think not that I am opposed _toyon , or _jt-OT opinions . Jf yonr desire be , as you say , toputd _\) _KntaoonBistency , hegkihy " putting down" your own _doms-factd © rode . If you love Chartism , do not allow _"Watidns any longer to defile it He is no Chartist . _Hature never made him one . It were much easier to make a parson of him than a patriot . The
latter must be possessed of a generous heart and a _rirtaons mind : your leader is devoid of both these _jualities . He is not even just , -amch less honourable . He would banish O'Connor , simply because he is an _IniaHnan . How very recently he has called to mind Owl _rimans tance . Who -is he , however , that he should banish any one * I would rattier any evil befell Chartism than that I should "be compelled to consort " _viith SUCh * 4 man ; for had he but the power he pants to possess , he would , like his prototype " "Richard / play the tyrant with a vengeance . Even now he is so hateful , that his diatribes bave to appear under an assumed name , "Who then would crown the vanity of Ben an egotist by dubbin g lim " leads * ?

P . M . M'DouaU , we hereby cordially acknowledge the same , receiving them , not so much as tokens of gratitude for any service rendered by us , as an expression of your opinion , in unison with our own on the facts and statements laid , through us , before you on that unpleasant occasion ; but although we do not consider any thanks due to us for doing only what duty and a strict sense of justice de-. manded , yet we do feel ourselves encouraged and stimulated by yonr recorded opinions ; to a still more
ardent perseverance in ourpursuit ofjustice and liberty for all ; notwithstanding we may , in our course , in addition to the siifferings inflicted by our oppressors , have our feelings wounded hy the necessity imposed on us of Unmasking- and denouncing the pretended or apostate friend , whom we had perhaps too long looked upon , loved , and cherished as one of our chosen champions in the Hfe-and-death struggle of the oppressed against the oppressor .

Bell and Hirst on the Executive , we did not say anything that could , by the most perverse and ingenious mind , be tortured into an attack on their " character ; " and we cannot hut think that the attempt to misrepresent us , so industriously made bv somebody , bespeaks anything but a fair
intention . Tbe "Head Pacificato * _- * . !"— Beauties of Tom Steele . —We take thefollowingfrom the IhdMnMonUor of Monday last : — " Ourreadersmaybe awarethat' O'ConneU ' s Head Pacificator of all Ireland , ' the renowned Tom Steele , has been for some months on a mission of pacification through some of the districts in Ireland where Ribbonism is most prevalent , and where murders and outrages are of rather too frequent occurrence . Were such a mission likely to be productive of beneficial results , we should most sincerely rejoice in it , and most heartily commend it . But the very contrary appears to be the effect of the Head Pacificator ' s presence in fhe various localities . We do not say that the object of bis mission is not to pacificate—but we do say
that the language he employs—that his personal bearing and general' conduct , has a far greater tendency to increase crime than to repress it . To make good our assertion , and illustrate our meaning , we beg to make one extract from a speech , reported in the Tipperary Vindicator by Tom Steele _himcol _^ as spoken by him at a public meeting on fhe HU 1 of Portrue _, on Sunday week last : — " There is , you all know , an unsanctified vagabond in Nenagh , called Kempston , the editor of the Nenagh Guardian , a-journal stupid , vapid , and wicked , for as far as its puny efforts could attempt it , it tried to throw ridicule upon the exertions of my friend , Mr . Lenihanof the Vindicator , and myself , for the restoration of peace and order , and the securing human life and private
property ia the county of Tipperary . fline groans for Eempston , and for Lord de Grey , the late Lord Lieutenant , and the other signers of the projected Clontarf massacre proclamation , and for Ogle , and Brophy , and Parker , of Shinrone . ( Continued groanings and hootings . ) And now , my friends , I have news for you—it is , of course ( as you all know ) quite certain thatKempston , of the Guardian , can have no chance of salvation , but there is iu > possible danger of his eternal perdition , and for this reason : when he dies , his soul is in suck a state of noisome , carrion putrefaction , that the very moment it shaU first hiss in the fire of the place to which it im « t descend , the smell cf il will be so loathsomely inodorous ( I use the word for the sake of euphony , instead of having recourse to a coarse word of one syllable , ) that the DeviL feeling
remorse for ihe first time , wiU not aggravate the tortures of Hie dwellers in his torrid kingdom , lut will take a pitchfork and fling Kempston 's soul out of the fire , and stuff it into a dunghill , its resting place for eternity , during seeula seeulortan , " ( Tremendous shouts of laughter . ) "Now , not being on such intimate terms with fhe Sovereign of the "Torrid Kingdom" as Mr . Steele professes to be , we shall not question his information about the ultimate destination of "Kempton ' s soul ; " hut , having some little knowledge of human nature , we , in all sober earnestness , ask "Mr . O'Connell , is it with his sanction that Steele is perambulating the disturbed districts of Tipperary , and / using in his harangues to the people such language as this 1 Talk of "restoring peace and order , " indeed!—talk of " securing human
life and private property , " when an incendiary of this sort is permitted to range at large , using language the direct tendency of which is to mark men as prey for the midnight assassin . More atrocious language we never read . We put it to Mr . O'Connell—does he sanction it ! Steele is the paid official of the Repeal Association , and really that body should exercise some control over his actions , and seek to keep him within the bounds of common decency . As for Steele's mission having any beneficial effect in " securing life and property" in Tipperary , it is utterly absurd to imagine such a thing , whenwe find him inciting the peasantry by the use of sneh diabolical language . Security , indeed—we would just as soon expect to promote " security" by sending a bomb-shell into a powder-magazine .

One Law Fou The Rich Axd Another Fob The...
One Law _fou the Rich axd another fob the Poor . —Case of Miss Osborne . —Our readers will r emember the flagrant case of Mrs . Tyrwhitt _, a fashionable lady , who a short time ago was charged with having stolen a microscope ; a charge which was fully and unmistakeably proved by the evidence on the trial , but oh which charge she was nevertheless acquitted by the base middle-class jury before ! whom she was tried . It will be remembered that on that occasion the Clerkenwell Sessions Court was crowded with a gang of fashionable drones and plunderers , "who hailed the acquittal of theiv worthy . comvogue -with loud' applause . That "lady" stole a microscope , but as the base jury were convinced th'dt she did not steal it with a "felonious intention " she was
acquitted ! This premium for aristocratic _thieveryhas not been unproductive of its natural results . Another " lady" has been charged with a like offence , stealing a pot of " potted meat . " This "lady" is a daughter of a Sir John Osborne , Bart ., who , we believe , enjoys the privilege of legally plundering the nation through the medium of an office in the _Cuatoms . True to her caste instincts , and no doubt fired with the ambition to imitate the lady-thief Tyrwhitt , Miss Osborne ' walks off with the grocer ' s " potted meat . " The "lady" is arrested and locked up for a dayor two , and then forthwith we have the most sentimental of bowlings given publicity to in the papers at the shocking hardship ot a " lady" being confined in a prison . Miss Osborne was next let out on bail , a
privilege which , though nommaliyopcn to au classes , is as practically and completely denied to thc poor , owing to their poverty , aa if by statute the privilege was confined to the rich . On the loth of February the " lady" was re-examined , and the magistrate committed her for trial on the charge . On that occasion Mr . Clarkson acted as counsel Tor the accused , and , quite irrelevantly to the . case , entered into a long rigmarole shewing the excellent way inwhichthe " lady " had beenbroughtup—the religious and _moraltrainingstie had had . In the eyeB of alljust men , this only makes the matter ten thousand times worse . The poor wretch , who , born in the purlieus of St . Giles ' s , who , through life , has been the victim of the most horriblecircumstances—afamishing , shivering ,
homeless , untaught creature , surrounded by the worst examples , and driven , as by a resistless fate , to tho commission of crime ; for such a being—and there are thousands—such a counsellor might well plead that the circumstances , such as we have spoken of , were , if not a justification , at least a palliation of the criminality of the accused . But in the case of Miss Osborne , ner " excellent trairing" can only be regarded as an aggravation of her offence . Tliis lawyer , Clarkson , had the daring impudence to characterise such offences as that laid to the account of Miss Osborne , as being , in her case , " little eccentricities . " The hungry man who takes a loaf of bread is run down as a "thief ; " Miss Osborne , who _wants'for nothing , but because she wants
for nothing , takes a fancy to other people ' s " potted meat , " she , forsooth , is to he regarded as only chargeable with "little eccentricities" ' . Weil , "lady " Osborne was committed for trial to the Middlesex Sessions , and on Tuesday last the trial should have come on , but in the course of the day the prosecutor informed the Assistant Judge , that he could not carry the bill before the Grand Jury , as the principal witness for the prosecution was missing ; and he did not know where he oould be found . The Judge said the -witness must be found , upon which says the reporter : — " _Theprosecutor then left the court fov the purpose of collecting the witnesses ; but , so soon as he had left , his policeman , who ia also a witness , went in search of the prosecutor , and so on throughout
the entire day—one going in search of another , until at last there was not one witness to be found , with the exception ofthe policeman . " At eight o ' clock the _?* and juiy entered the court with the last bill found _, he Judge said that it was most extraordinary that the witnesses in Miss Osborne ' s case were not forthcoming . An officer ofthe court said there had been one in court a short time since , but he was half drunk . He went away again , " and said he was going to look for some other witnesses . —The Judge : It is an extraordinary proceeding . Let the whole of their recognisances be estreated , with the exception of the policeman ; and the prosecutor can , if he likes , press the indictment at the next session . " — Tes ; the proseeutor can , if he likes , press the indictment at the next session : but we would wager a
tattle he never does . Howwillhepres 3 the indictment without his principal witness ? The whole thing is a down-right fraud . The prosecutor goes to look for the witnesses , they go looking for the prosecutor . One ofthe witnesses appears in court drank , and the principal one is smuggled out of the way , bribed- — undoubtedly bribed—not to appear . _And-thisis British justice ! This is the way the " _msyesty of the offended law" is " avenged ! " Where has there been an instance where the like fraud has been permitted to save a poor offender ? Is there not one law for the rick and another for the poor ? What will the Weekly _ChroiiiWemaHsaytothiscase ? HowwiUl _^ . Georgef 7 ' 2 Mw * ' M ( Ward , M . P ., get over this additional proof of " the natural and inevitable war of the rich and the poor" ? There is that war . Not we , hut the rich , the law , the law ' s executors , the system , and the . system ' s supporters , are the war-makers , and the warupholders .
" Laws grind the poor , and rich men rule the laws . " But a day of right and retribution is coming , when justice shall no longer be trafficked with in the shambles of class-made law . Capture of a Smuggling Vxssel at Livebpooii . —Police Cobbt . — Tuesday . — William Pascoe , captain of the Ardent , from -Flushing ; William Short , mate ; John Drain , John Bathgate , aud Griffith Parry , seamen belonging to her , were placed at the bar of the court , charged with smuggling tobacco . The case , from its novelty and importance , excited great interest . Mr . Brook , solicitor , attended on behalf of the Customs . Lieut . L . C . F . Walker , R . N ., inspector of the River Mersey , said , that in the course of his duty on Monday last , the
24 th Feb ., he boarded the Ardent , as she lay atthe Sloyne , having arrived the same day . He pulled up alongside of her , and hailed her , and was answered by William Short , the mate . ' Witness asked where she was from , whether coastwise or foreign , and the mate replied from _Sligo , with a cargo of oats .

Fall of a Cliff . —Cromeb , Feb . 20 . —Early on Sunday morning last an extensive fall of the cliff took place at the signal station-hill , near the light-house , spreading itself far and wide upon the beach , and covering an area of at least five or six acres . The cliff at this spot attains an elevation ef about 250 feet , and iB composed of _unstratified" white and yellow sand , resting upon clay . Hundreds of persons have been attracted to the spot to witness its huge intermingled masses rent into lofty pinnacles and deep ravines by the _overwhelming pressure of the subterranean waters collected in the caverns ofthe cliff , and presenting the idea of an earthquake , but happily without its concomitant horrors . —Norfolk Chronicle :

Narrow Escape . —Five Lives Saved . —On Tuesday afternoon , about three o ' clock , as a waterman , named White , was conveying six passengers in his boat by the Old Swan Pier , near London-bridge , the Waterman steamer No . 3 , being about to embark passengers u pon the p ier , took White ' s boat in the starboard quarter with her larboard sponson , and immediately the wholeof White ' s p assengers , one of them being a woman with a child in her arms , were immersed in the river and struggling for life . The excitement on the shore was indescribable , aa . one of the male
passengers swam to land , whilst the other five alternately sunk and rose in the water , the woman with the child clasping her infant in her bosom , holding it above the eddy with all a mother ' s instinct . Thos . Norcott , a waterman belonging to the Lower Tunnel Pier , Wappirigj with great self-possession , though at a considerable risk , shoved his boat astern of the steamer , and bj _^ great and praiseworthy exertion succeeded HI rescuing _tllO whole party from impending death . He first turned his attention' to the woman with her child , whom , together with' " another , he placed safely in the head of his boat ; but , whilst _pickingyip the others , he narrowly escitped swamping , as the water several times flowed over the gunwale . Gr eat credit is due to Norcott for the bold manner in which , at his great personal hazard , he rescued five fellow-creatures from a watery _graye _.
Transportation of the Convict . Dalmas por Life ;—Our readers may remember that we some time back gave the full particulars of the respite of the above convict , who was found guilty of the dreadful murder of a female on _BattcMea-bwdge , with whom he was on terms of the greatest intimacy . While under sentence of death at _Hoisemonger-lane Gaol , Dalmas was reprieved during her Majesty ' s pleasure , but was afterwards removed to the Millbank prison , previous to his iransporUitioii for life . Orders were given to scrutinise the prisoner ' s conduct , and he was to remain for a month in the prison , under medical surveillance . It now appears that the convict ia not
altogether to escape _pumsnment , tor since his admission into the hospital of Bethlehem , the medical gentlemen of that institution have doubted his insanity ; in- fact , they have stated that since his residence in that establishment , now about eight or nine months ago , he has exhibited no symptoms of insanity .. This extraordinary circumstance has been duly reported to the Secretary of State , and the consequence is that Sir James Graham has issued an order for his _Removal from Bethlehem to his old quarters at Millbank prison , previous to his commuted sentence being carried into execution . The prisoner will now , consequently , be transported for life to one of the penal settlements .
Fire at Nkwington . —Shortly after twelve o ' clock on Sunday morning , a fire broke out upon the premises belonging to Mr . Rawbone , oil andltaliau warehouseman , Frances-street , facing St . Mary ' s Church , Newington . The engines of the parish , London Brigade , and West of England Office promptly attended , but by the time they arrived the flames were bursting forth through the windows and doorway . The Lambeth water works furnished an instant and __ abundant supply of water , from which the engines were worked with full vigour , butthe firemen were unable to subdue the conflagration before halfpast one o'clock , and not before property to the amount of several hundred pounds was consumed .
A i ortunate Recovery . — Ou Saturday afternoon , Mr . Hawkins , clerk to Messrs Mills , Thome , and Sons , brewers , Nine Elms , stepped , by mistake , on board the Putney steamer , at Nine Elms , aud on discovering , his error attempted to rogamthe pier , though the boat was under weigh , but he stepped short , fell into the river , and was saved with some difficulty , hayingnarrowly escaped getting under the paddle-wheels . iiWhen taken out of the wate _^ Mr . Hawkins ' s first exclamation was , " Where is my bag ? " When he fell into the river he had in his hand a bag containing £ 900 in gold , silver , banknotes , and cheques ; and this bag had gone to the bottom ! A reward of £ 20 had the effect of setting
to work a good many persons , consisting of whenymen , Thames policemen , and others . The watermen acted in . concert , having agreed that all should share alike _whoever might be the individual finder . The search was continued all the afternoon and during the night , with drags , boat-hooks , die , and even by diving , and the lucky bag was at last fished up , at ten o ' clock on Sunday morning , by a man-named Maynard .. The £ 20 were paid and honourably divided .- Had the lost treasure been carried out to sea by the current , Mr . Hawkins's predicament would have been most painful in more senses than one , as he might have been subjected to an unjust imputation that the money had been otherwise disposed of .
Melancholy . Event .. —A melancholy and fata ) event took placo in the village of Roderet , in Piedmont , last month , by which the Rev . Daniel Buffa , the clergyman of that place , and his family lost their lives . During the night an avalanche fell upon his residence , situated on an alpine steep , * his parishioners , alarmed at the heavy noise of the fall , hastened to the relief of their beloved young pastor , several hundred men were engaged for five hours before a passage _couldbe cleared through the snow , and when they had obtained an entrance into the house , a most _distressingscene presented itself , ' The clergyman , agbd 29 , his wife , aged 20 , and their infant son , were discovered quite dead . A servant shared the same fate . A ; favourite _^ dog alone survived . This sad catastrophe has occasioned a mournful sensation throughout the Protestant valleys . " The funeral of the devoted family took nlace on the 20 th ult ., and was attended by nearly all . the inhabitants and many of the ministers of Piedmont .
Daring Highway Robbery near Leeds . —One of the most daring highway robberies that has happened in this neighbourhood for a number of years past , was perpetrated on Saturday night last , on the Leeds and Wetherby turnpike road . A man named Robert White , who residos in a yard in Briggate , Leeds , is in custody . He was brought up before the West Riding magistrates on Tuesday last , at the Courthouse , when the following evidence was adduced : — Thos . Richardson stated : I am a grocer , and live in Leeds with my father-in-law Mi * . John Kaye , whose servant I am . On Saturday night last , I was returning in a gig from a journey of business , and When I was getting towards Shadwell , on the other side of the Wellington Inn , I saw the prisoner walking
towards Leeds . I was driving rather slowly at the timo , and when I got opposite to him , he came off the footpath and took hold ofthe horse ' s head . I said , " Hollo , what do you want ? " He replied , " Your money or your life ; " and running his nand along the reins , came to the gig where'I was seated , and again demanded my money . Some parleying ensued _^ during which the witness offered him a . few _aniuings , which the prisoner refused to take , and getting upon the second step of the gig , he presented a pistol at the prosecutor ' s head , saying , "Your purse or your life instantly . " —Witness : ! told
him _. the puree was not mine , and before I would part with it I would part with my life . Prisoner replied , "As the purse is not yours , if you'll give me two sovereigns and your watch , I'll let you go . " I told him I had no watch , but I would give him one sovereign if he would go away quietly . Prisoner declared , "I'll either have two , or I'll blow your brains out instantly . " The witness gave him two sovereigns , and he got off the gig , when prosecutor Set off at a gallop : The prisoner then went towards Wetherby . —The witness spoke positively as to the identity of the prisoner , both from his appearance and the tone of his voice . The prisoner was remanded . -.
Swell Mob . "—Serious Robbery at Leeds . — On Tuesday morning last , four individuals ( two men and two women ) , having the appearanco of What is vulgarly denominated " reg'iai * swells , " were brought up at the Court-house , the women charged with robbing Mrs . Clarkson , green-grocer , in Briggate , ofthe 9 um of £ 2610 s ., and the men with being accomplices . The men , who have been known as "black-legs" and constant attendants at fairs and races for a period of from ten to fifteen years past , are each possessed of a lldrse and gig , with which it appears they arid their " ladies" travel from place to place in the exercise of their vocationthe nature of which may be easily
, opined . The names given in by the parties are—Wm . Birch , horse clipper , Edgeware , Middlesex ; Robert Hughes , horse clipper , Oxford ; Hannah Humphrey , flom Lincolnshire ; and Phcebe Keatley , Northampton / About four o ' clock on Saturday afternoon last , the female prisoners wont to the shop of Mrs . Clarkson , and bought some oranges and another trifling article . While they were in the shop Mrs . C . had occasion to stoop down , and whilst in the bending posture she felt " a rubbing against her person ; she immediately turned and looked at the prisoners , but saw nothing to excite her suspicion . On resuming her former position , she experienced
One Law Fou The Rich Axd Another Fob The...
a similar sensation ; but-,, deceived by thc respectable appearance ofthe parties , she thought they must have come against her accidcntly .: _i-Soon : after the women rather hurriedly left the shop , and turned round the corner leading to the shambles—alongwhich they proceeded at such a rapid pace as to attract attention . Mrs . Clarkson , not long after their departure , discovered that a purse had been abstracted trom her pocket , containing twenty-six sovereigns , one half , sovereign , a spade guinea , a French coin , and a shilling of old date . Information was given of the robbery at the police-office , when _poUce-officevs Stubbs , Cordukes , andKell , went in search of the _prisoners , and after much trouble and perseverance , found that the parties had been lodging atthe Junction Inn , New Road End , from Thursday until Saturday morning , when the landlady , not being satisfied with the manner in which they conducted themselves , refused to entertain them any longer . From the Junction
it was found they had gone to the Black Bull , in Ilunslet-lane , which p lace they left on Saturday night .. _From information obtained , the chief-constable ( Mr . Read ) ordered the above named officers to proceed on the road to Wakefield , and on doing so soon discovered they , were in the'right direction . On Sunday , they learnt that the prisoners had slept at New Miller Dam , about three miles from Wakefield , onthe road to Barnsley . From New Miller Dam , it was found they had gone by a cross road to Doneaster , at which place they were apprehended . They were found at a public-house called the Marquis of Granby . On the person of Humphrey was found £ 10 lis ; on Keatley £ 8 lis . Id ; one Birch two halfsovereigns and 6 s . Od . in silver ; and on Hughes lis . and a French coin , which Mrs . Clavkson can identify , as well as two marked sovereigns found upon the person of Hannah Humphrey . The prisoners were remanded .
. Dreadful Fire in Cheapside . —Narrow Escape of a whole Family . —On _"Siursday morning , shortly after one o ' clock , the immediate vicinity ' . of Cheap ' - side was thrown into a state of the greatest alarm and excitement in consequence of the sudden outbreak of a most serious fire upon the extensive range of promises belonging to Messrs . Courtould and Taylor , crape-manufacturers , situate at No . 42 , Gutter-lane . The first discovery was made by police _,-constable Gormoh , who succeeded in arousing Mr . Taylor , his wife , and three other females , who all made their appearance at the second-floor front .
lite hre by that time had obtained such a firm hold , and the smoke was ascending in such dense bodies up the staircase , that none of the inmates were able to descend by the usual means . The police having opened the jumping-shect of the London FiveEstabliahuient , three females precipitated themselves from the ' second floor , and were received in safety below . Mrs . Taylor and another female effected their escape by sliding down the ladder . The firemen were unable to extinguish the conflagration until past two o ' clock , and not before the flames had reached almost every portion ofthe three lower floors ofthe building .
Additional Particulars . —The fire in Gutter-lane was attended by a serious accident to one of the inmates _, 'fhe premises in which the fire commenced were in the occupation of Messrs . Cburtold , Taylors , and Courtold , crape and silk merchants . They were five floors in height , with a frontage of considerable extent . The inmates consisted of Mr . P . A . Taylor , jun ., his wife , and two female servants . One of the latter , Caroline Norris , a young wOman about 25 , was so severely injured , that for two hours after the fire was extinguished she was insensible . It appears that-she jumped from the second floor , intending to fall upon the sheet fire escape , which several persons were holding underneath . The flames , however , bursting through the warehouse window , with
violence , they drove some of the parties back , and instead of falling into the centre of the escape , she fell at thc side , and from thence on to the stone pavement . The house-keeper was saved by throwing herself into the escape sheet , The damage ( lo Messra . Courtold , Taylor , and Co . ' s property is _- ° mated at near £ 10 , 000 . csti-Escape from Poison . —In calling the attention of our readers to the many and melancholy instauces of unsuccessful eBcapc from poison , it necessarily rejoices our hearts to bo able to make mention of thc escape of a whole family and their friends from the deleterious results of systematically administered arsenic in soup and coffee . The party were all seized the next morning with severe illness , and some kept their beds
tor three days , i his happened about a week ago in Connaught-terrace , and the rector of St . Mary ' s ( the Rev . Dr . Dibdiri ) had' nearly been in the number of the victims . The amiable host and hostess may be said to have very narrowly escaped from the poison inserted in the coffee . . The next morning the papers told the tale of a gentleman and his lady , ofthe name of Montagu , having been poisoned by tea . We can make little doubt but death walks abroad in this shape ( poison , by some means ' or other ) in a variety of undiscovered instances . The chain of evidence is difficult of unravelling . Meantime some means should be adopted by the legislature to regulate the sale of poisons by chemists . Tue _Muroer at Hampstead , _fcontmued from page 6 . )—Adjourned Ikquest . —Mr . Wakley , Coroner for Middlesex , Mr . G . J . MillsDeputy
Co-, roner , and the jury empanelled to inquire into the circumstances connected with the late murder near Primrose-hill , re-assembled on Thursday morning at the Yorkshire Grey Tavern , Hampstead . The first witness examined was Mr . Perry , the surgeon , and his evidence having been read over , he added the results of the post mortem examination . He found various bruises of the scalp and other smaller injuries . On examining the under surface of the scalp , he found it niueh bruised and blackened from repeated Wows . The left temporal muscle was much softened and exceedingly black , and on removing the skull cap , the brain was found to be quite healthy , and no effusion of any kind upon it , and there was no fracture of the skull . There was no extra-|
vasation of blood ; in fact , as ' he had already said , the brain was quite health y . He ascribed the death to concussion of the brain , from repeated blows . The other parts of the body were not opened _^ They were not such injuries as could have been inflicted by a fall . —Mr . Perry requested that he might be allowed to correct a mistake he had fallen into m the course of the last examination . He had stated then that " the injuries were inflicted by a blunt cutting instrument ; he was now of opinion , from closer examination , that they were inflicted by a heavy weapon , as a stick or crowbar . —Edward Scottney _, 21 I , then examined upon oath : I belong to the Hammersmith station of police . I took Thomas Henry Hocker into custody on suspicion of
being concerned in the murder ofthe late James Delarue . 'ihe witness proceeded to detail the circumstances of the " ¦ prisoner ' s / arrest ( which will be . found in another part of this paper ); but the coroner stopped the proceedings , objecting to receive evidence touching an absent man ; and it appeared there were some difficulties in the way of producing the prisoner , who is at present in Clerkenwell gaol . The coroner commented at some length on the alleged obstacle ' s put in the way of the execution of his duties , whicli he intimated would be made subject of discussion in a higher quarter ; and after a consultation with the jury the inquest was again adjourned to Saturday morning , at half past nine .
Robbery at Kew Church . —On Sunday morning last , Kew Church ( which stands in the centre of Kew Green ) was entered b y some thieves , who carried away a box which contained the parish registers , and a book , in which was entered a list of charitable bequests belonging to the parish . The object of ? the robbers was probably the communion plate ; but that is ill safer keeping . There is at present no clue to the offenders ; the police , however , are duly on the alert . Hydrophobia by the Bite of a Healthy Hobse . —A strong hostler , aged thirty , never bitfen by a dog , but three ycurs ago a healthy horse , to which he was giving fodder , bit him on the left fore-arm , but the wound healed by itself witliout any perceptible scar . Now , after a restless night , the patient was found
labouring under all the symptous of hydrophobia . He did not complain of particular pains , but of inexpressible anguish , by which he was forced to throw himself about constantly , to move the limbs violently , and . to scvca . ru . out ii \ e < issa , titty . Hib consciousness was unaffected , he showed no tendency to bite , and could controul himself sufficiently . The conjucliva was highly congested ; the pupils contracted ; respiration accelerated and difficult ; the skin moderately warm and moist . The patient spat frequently , and expectorated a tough scanty mucus , the pituitous membrane of the mouth being very red-and-dry . During the whole disease neither stool nor urine was discharged . The pulse was small and irregular , and a bright light increased the patient's anguish considerably . He was dead in nine hours after the commencement of the attack . —Medical Times .
