Human Skin nailed on Church Doors . — Recent investigations at the College of Surgeons , io Lincoln ' s Inn FieWs , have curiouBly confirmed some traditions long prevalent in Easex and in "Worcestershire . The church doer of Hadstock , in the former county , displayed for generations-what was said to be the skin of a Danish pirate who bad been flayed alive as a punishment for sacrilege ; his ikin being stretched and nailed on the door of the edifice he had robbed . A similar strange and terrible story was told about Copford church door , also in Essex , I and the local historians do not fail to ' , repeat the legend that explained how sacrilege was puni&hed in o'd times . But the flaying of church robbers was , it appears , not peculiar . , to Essex , for at Worcester a piece ef skin was some years ago taken from the
north door of the cathedral and bequeathed to the Society of Antiquaries in London . It is now preserved in Somerset House with the description that it had once belonged to a man caught in , tbe act of stealing the sanclus-bell from the hjgh altar .-These old btories have ' recently been verified in a manner which shows , how modern science may at I tines be useful in the elucidation of doubtful historical assertions . A small portion of the supposed skin taken from Hadstock churclwdoor in 1846 by the Rev . C . Townley , was sent to the College of Surgeons and there submitted to examination with the powerful microscopes therein use by Mr Quekett , v ; h ? . tx that practised anatomist at once recognised ihf ; 3 !;>! f . i-i ¦ ¦ ¦ u&m —' that-of a light-haired person , -. j !

' Shipwreck and Loss of Life . —On Friday week laBt , between four and five o ' clock a . m . the brig Seawitcb , of London , John Henrv Freeman ,
master , from Sierra Leone , with a cargo of African oak and ground nuts , was totally wrecked 'in Pontifex Bay . ou the north-west coast of Guernsey .. Owing to the long continuance of cloudy weather no observation had been taken for several days , nor had lights been seen either at Scilly , the Lizard , or Por land . The change of the wind on 'Thursday night co-operating with the powerful indraught ia the gulf in which Guernsey is situate , drove ihs vessel towards the coast . The vessel on striking recoiled , when a wave carried her into a trough of rocks , ahd she almost instantly was broken in halves . Ihe master and seven men , who were on the after .
part , were swept away by the fury of the ttaves and wind , and perished . The three men who escape ! were in the bows , where they remained till daybreak , when they were rescued , the tide haviag left the fore part of the wreck high and dry . Part of the cargo , together with , two 6 « a . tt boxes oi gold dust and some jewellery , have * been recovered , and taken charge of by Mr Tupper , the agent ftfec Lloyds . The bodies of the qfeht drowned men hroB also been found and taken to the Grandes Rocqqets barracks , and every attention has been paid to tke three survivors of this deplorable shipwreck .
Distbe : sino Affair . —A highly respectable mercantile gent ' eman of Baltimore city was taken . ill , a short time since , and was supposed to have died . Being a native of an adjoining city , his wife and friends d « Bired to inter his remains there , and the body was accordingly placed in a coffin and conveyed to that city . When the coffin arrived it was opened , in order to transfer the remains to a more suitable one , which had bsen prepared , for interment . When the lid . was removed the body was . found lying upon the face , which , upon examination * wa 3 bruised . A Koiiture was observed upon the skin , and on close examin-tun it was found that the vital spaik had not as yet fled . All the restoratives that " the best ' medical skill could devise were used , and the man was actually ' revived and lived for two days afterwards— Philadel phia Ledger .
A Gnu , Hung by her Mother , —On Tuesday Mr Wakley held an inquest upon the body of Ann Pullen , aged fourteen and a half years . Deceased resided with her mother at No . 3 , Princes Street , Fitzroy Square , and it was alleged had'been hangeA by her parent . —Jane Pollen , the accused , stated , in answer , to the Coroner , that she was the widow of a sailor that she last saw the deceased alive at half-past eleven on Friday morning ; that she locked her in the room , having fastened her ; with a cord to the bed-post ; that she returned home at half-past ten at night , and on unlocking the door found tbe deceased dead , and cut her down with a knife . Mr Layman , landlord of the house , said that at eleven
0 dock on Friday night the prisoner knocked at hia door , saying-Ann is dead ! what shall I do ? ' H 6 went down staira and found deceased lying on the floor , quite dead and cold . A rope and a knife were lying on the bed . He proposed fetching a docter , when prisoner said , ' What ' s the use , as she is dead ?' He then said , ' There must be an inquest ? to which ahe replied , ' Something must be done , for I did it . 1 left her early in the morning , with directions to mend some of her things . She had been kept Bt home frem her work oh purpose , and when I returned at eleven o ' clock she had done nothing . I told her she should have nothing but dry bread , and in order to prevent her sitting down I put the
rope roundherneck and made it fast tow the footpost of the bed , tying the ends of the rope out of her reach . ' Prisoner also told this witness that when she relumed deceased was in a standing position , but leaning forv ? ards . ~ Mr Derbyshire , surgeon , said that the deceased died from suffocation caused by hanging , the neck being deeply indented by the rope and the skin cut through . On a , po ) t moWem examination , found the general appearance healthy , but there were no signs of food in the stomach . — Mary Pullen , sister of deceased , a servant , said she had known her mother tie deceased to the bedstead
or her hands together for two or three days at a time . Deceased was an idle girl , and her mother was very severe . Never heard the prisoner threaten the life of the deceased , or the latter threaten to destroy herself . It was stated that the height of the indention upon the bed-post , to which the rope was attached was 3 ft . 10 § in ., and that the height from / deceased ' s heel to the marks upon her neck , made by the cord was 3 ft . MHa . The Jury , after two hours' deliberation , returned a verdict of « Manslaughter , ' and the heartless mother was [ committed by the Coroner to Newgate for triaj on that charge .
