The Last of the Maxxlvcs . —The bodies of the twoconricts were placed in shells , after casts of the head and synopsis of the brain of each had been taken , and in the evening both were deposited in a grave prepared for them in the corridor leading from the yard to the chapel . The coffins were partially filled with lime in order to insure an earlv decay of the remains , this plan being invariably adopted within the walls of a prison . The phrenological developcment of the heads is said to agree in a very remarkable manner with the character of thc convicts as at present known ; and Mr . Donovan , ¦ who has prepared the synopsis , will shortly publish the result of his examination for the information of the more curious in these matters . It will havo
Lecn remarked that Manninpr stated that his wife "was an atheist , and that her belief was , that after death the living individual became a lump of clay . How far this may be true it is perhaps difficult to say ; but one thin ? is certain , viz ,, that the wretched woman exhibited no atheistical feelings during her confinement in Tlorsemonger-lane Gaol . She was always pnnctual in her attendance at ehapeli and , as far as outward form could indicate tllC fact , she -was imbued with religious feelings . In her letter addressed to her guardian , and written onlv a few hours before her execution , she expresses very confidently her hope of obtaining in another world that mercy which had been refused to her . in this . It is worthy of remark that she thus commenced
it- —" The Queen , like nil judges , lias a heart of rock , andit is determined that I shall die . " She then goes on to state that she has been murdered b y her husband , and that be would have to answer to God for her Wood . This statement is not very consistent with her apparently affectionate conduct to Manning in the chapel and on the scaffold : but this again may be only another phase in the scheme of ijpocrisy , induced b y a desire to create an impression of her innocence . Thc whole of the property found in the possession of Maria Manning . ' and that discovered at the South-Easfern Railway station still remain in the hands of Inspector Yates , and Burton , the police-constable . Thc latter only holds a few trifling articles ; but the former has proin the station
perty police- said to he worth nearl y £ 200 . Mr . Rinns , Manning ' s solicitor , has laid an embargo on the whole of it , l « y a suit against Manning , for money lent in defending him ; and the Secretary of State has directed it to be detained until the bill of costs be sent in . The property will be fold in the course of a few days , and , " after paring the legal gentlemen who defended the convicts , the surplus will he handed over to Mr . Edmund Manning , thc brother . Among the property arc several valuable satin dresses , a number of lace veils , vnffios , two gold watches , some Trench Rentes worth £ 70 , and a large assortment of female wearing apparel . Thc property which belonged to O Conr . ov is being administered to by his brother and will shortly be given up . " '

thc witnesses , Mr . Burrell read to the prisoner the nsnal caution , that if he said anything in his defence it would be written down and used against him hereafter .

The witnesses were all bound over to prosecute , and the prisoner was placed in . a cab , in . the custody of two warders , and lodged in Xewgate . It was stated before the magistrate that the prisoner has been very reserved since he committed the murder , and constantly reading the Hebrew Bible , which had been given him by the chaplain , the Kev .

when he observed the deceased , who wag a very portly man , endeavouring to step on the foot board . To enable him to do so , Mr . Buckley held out his hand , which the deceased grasped and held so firmly that , not having effected his footing on the board or step , he dragged Mr . Buckley out of the carriage , and that gentleman literally rolled over the deceased on to the platform , at the same time releasing himself from the deceased , who fell between the carriage and platform ; a portion of the carriage passed over his body , and so injured the spine as to produce instant paralysis , which continued until death . Some other portion of the carriage ,
probably the step , caught the unfortunate man's head , both sides of which were all but scalped , tho skin and hair barely being retained on the skull . Mr . Buckley , as soon as he conld recover himself , set about removing the deceased from the line , and with further assistance he was carried into the station . Mr .

One of the police , on going to the east end of the yard , was informed that a strange-looking man had just been seen to enter- the empty house' recently occupied b y Dr . Suthcr , " opposite tho sawmills , and on the constable following , he heard the party at the top ot thc stairs , who proved to be the convict . The latter , rather than be taken , forced an iron bar from the window
, and dropped from the parapet , a distance of eighteen feet , into Church-street , and got clear off into the town , no person . ever imagining that lie was a convict , as lie had on a , pair of excellent canvass trousers , one of the shipwright ' s jackets , which he had taken from the shipwri ght ' s chest , where it had been locked un for safety , and a straw hat . The constable could not peril * his life in following through the window , but a strong party of constables being sent into ihe town with the greatest despatch , police constable 306 R , succeeded in recapturing the convict under a ted in a house , Xo . : ? 4 , Montgramit-square , and in less than an hoinfrom the time he was missing the prisoner was safe on board the Warrior , convict-shi p , opposite Woolwich Dockvard .

Cot , Geneva , " a gold breq > iet > chaui and key , and rifled his pockets of their ' contents , which fortunately amounted to a few shilling's only . The cowardly ruffians then struck him again , and made off ; though sever ely cut , it is hoped the injuries sustained are | not of a serious nature . Xo clue has as yet been I obtained to the perpetrators of this outrage : the
night being dark and the assault so sudden , Mr . Conder was unable to distinguish his assailants or to c-. ll for help . The pathway in question is favourable for such an attack , and ought not to be travelled after nightfall , unless the police keep watch over it .

under the loss of an amiable child , could endure to have the mark of degradation stamped upon theremains of that child , by being denied the right of Christian burial ? And yet this most undoubtedly weuld have been the case had the parties been without the' means of providing another place of sepulture . Happily this was not Mr . Gull y ' s position and a remedy in his case was at hand , though the circumstances must have cost the niuurning fam'lv much additional sorrow . Ackworth-park bcin ^ * contigu ous to the churchyard , a spot was se-Ipptetl as nenr as possible to the place where tho
other members of the family had been buned ; and this being by a Catholic clergyman set apart as a place of sepulture , the remains of Miss Gully were deposited there according to the rites of that church in whose faith she died . The conduct of Mr . Kenworthy needs no comment . Surely such a system will soon lack defenders , and will give place to one whose principles are more equitable and just . We have no quarrel with E p iscopalianism as such , but we do object to a church being called national , and being supported by national funds , denying its citizens a right to its privileges . —Leeds Mercury .
Introduction of Convicts in the Isle of Poutland . —A portion of the 4 th regiment of foot hurriedly passed through Southampton on their way to the convict station at the isle of Portland .

The fire engine was quickly brought to bear , and with a good supply of water the fire was soon extinguished . Upon an examination of the muck bin the fire was discovered to have commenced nearly at thc bottom , and it was found to have been occasioned by spontaneous combustion , caused by the gardener , vho had very inconsiderately placed the green grass , the produce of one of the lawns , which had just been mown , and which amounted to nearly cart-load full , into the bin , when thc new dung from the stables , being placed there daily , caused it to ignite .

It will be remembered that two or three years ago Mr . Burge was placed in York Castle at the suit of some of his creditors , lie was at the time largely involved in debt , and we believe , though he made several applications for release as an insolvent debtor , he rcmaided a prisoner in the castle until his death . —Daily Paper .

there is a chain passed across the river , to prevent persons trespassing on the water the property of thc late Colonel Pemberton . On the last of these courses it is presumed tho boat came athwart the chain and capsiscd , when the deceased was immersed in ten feet water .

Senior were fully committed for trial , the former individual on the charge of having stolen £ 800 alleged to have been remitted by him to tho Botesdale branch , but at which establishment its receipt was repudiated , and the latter for general misappropriation of the funds of the bank , the actual amount as yet unascertained , but already proved to be sufficiently large and conclusive as against the accused to warrant his committal . It was stated to the magistrates that the books of the bank were undergoing a thorough investigation by an accountant , and that daily falsifications of thc accounts to a large amount were being revealed .
Incendiary Fire at Lose Ashton , Somerset . — Considerable excitement and alarm was produced in the village of Long Ashton , in consequence of a daving act of incendiarism committed during the night of Saturday last on the premises of Mr .

The farm buildings were saved with difficulty . The police are exerting themselves in order if possible to discover the parties by whom the outrage was perpetrated , and xhe occurrence lias given rise to a good deal of consternation and alarm , as some few days before Mr . Jolliffe had an outliouse destroyed in a ' similar wav .
My sterious Disappearance . — A gentleman named Quic '< arrived at Plymouth about the 20 th of October last , and took lodgings at llarvie ' s Naval Hotel , Barbican , Plymouth , intending to await the arrival of the emigrant ship Stratheden , Mr F . Farmer , commander , on loard of which ship he was engaged as surgeon . On the 5 th instant , it appears , he quitted the lodging house without leaving word where he was going , and has not been since heard of . Thc fact of th « whole of his luggage having been left at the Inn shows that he did not intend to leave the neighbourhood , and great fears are entertained that
some ill fate which time may possibly disclose has befallen him . Seai ch has been made in this locality , but no tidings has yet been gained of him . The ship Stratheden arrived at this port in due course , and after waiting some time for the missing gentleman , procured another surgeon , and sailed for her destination on the 12 th instant . Mr .

Liverpool . Saturday , Nov . 17 tli . —Robbery and presumed Murder . —At the police office a case was inquired into before thc magistrates which excited considerable interest , on account of its sxipposed connexion with the death of an unfortunate man who a few days ago was found drowned in the Mersey , near New Brighton . Mary Ball was charged with being concerned in a robbery of £ 8 b from the deceased . Suspicion of the robbery was first awakened in the following singular manner : —From the statements of tbe witnesses it appeared that , on Friday night week , l \) Uce-ollicer Tuck was in Castle-street , when he met the prisoner , who beckoned him up Sweeting-street and asked him if she might trust him , asshe had something to say . lie replied that she might , and she then related a storj as to her husband having left her for three months and returned , but that he had again gone away , and she would communicate all she knew . She then proceeded to say that herself and her husband lived in Redcross-strect , and
on Tueday night a gentleman came there whom he robbed of £ 85 in notes . Her husband had taken £ 80 and given her £ 5 . She requested Tuck to get the £ 5 note , a note of the Leeds bank , changed for her , apd he was to say nothing about it . Under these circumstances she was brought to the police office , and , as no report of robbery was to be found in the policebooks , her story was at the time disbelieved . On further inquiry by the superintendent of police it was ascertained that , on Tuesday night , a man had been booked for safety who gave the name of John llichardson , and who made a complaint of having been robbed . The man was found by Inspector Bibby on Tuesday nh-ht , in the tap-room of a house in Kedcross-street where the prisoners lived He wasquite drunk . The inspector was unable to elicit anything satisfactory from him at that time as to the robbery ; and though he made inquiries at several p laces , he was unsuccessful in obtaining the slightest information connected with the circumstances . The man was subsequently discharged from custodv nn
tne Wednesday , and it was not afterwards known what became of him . Mr . Superintendent Cloueh . having obtarhed a dtfe that the man ' s friends lived at a place near Leeds , wrote to ascertain whether lie had returned and received an answer to the effect that he left home on the 30 th-of October last after drawing from £ 130 to £ 150 from the Leeds bank since which , time they had heard aothing of Jiim

Mr . Rushton ordered the prisoner to be remanded .-1 he fe ond " nquest was . held on Wednesday last , about Sn attae Cheshire Cheese , Wallasey , be ore Mr . SurtoD , the county coroner . A rater of the deceased , from Leeds , who had seen the body when i was exhumed on the previous day , gave distinct evidence as to identity . The body presented no ap-Lirance of decomposition , and omitted no offensive
eflhnium . verifying the fact that the aeceasea naa been only \ ver short timo in the water . Witness said that she knew that the deceased ( George Richardson ) had drawn from the Leeds Bank £ lo 0 , before he left that locality ; and that , m addition to this sum , he bad taken with him about £ lo to ± 18 , which he had before in hand . She added , that he was by trade a " cloth-drawer , " and that be was only 29 years of age ; and further , that his object in going to Liverpool was to endeavour to possess himself of a public house on Iub own account . Witness also stated that he had ever at home been a very steady and sober man . One of the witnesses , a lad , said that nn the day previous to the boty being found ( Saturday ) he saw deceased at New Brighton endeavouring to iumn upon Wilkinson s omnibus .
then proceeding towards Seacombe . He appeared then to be much excited , and the lad remarked to the driver ( his father ) that " the man must be crazy . " The only medical gentleman examined at this " second inquest was Mr . Hodson , surgeon , Egremont , and his evidence went to the effect that there was great congestion of the brain , and that the lungs were much suffused with blood—a condition always consequent upon persons in previous health sinking and being suffocated in water . Ihe coroner inquired whether the administration of any poisonous matter , or narcotic , such as opium , would not produce congestion of the brain ? The surgeon ' 6 reply was , that it would , but it would not have the
same effect upon the lungs as that shown in the deceased . He added , that the wounds on the skin of the head were probably caused merely by the skull striking , while floating on : the shore , against the rocks ov stones .

. ? uiither Insubordination in tiie Thibd Dragoon Guards . — The insubordination which has lately manifested itself at Nottingham Barracks amongst the privates of the 3 rd Dragoon Guards , has infected the troop of the same regiment quartered at Loughborough , a town containing about eleven thousand inhabitants , fourteen miles from Nottingham . The troop which is at the present time stationed there is under the command of Captain Tiroughton , and was removed from Nottingham to Loughborough about two months ago . The facts connected with this last outbreak are as follows : —On Wednesday the loth instant , an order was received from the colonel of the regiment ( General Cathcart ) to the effect that the men in future should be commanded
to return to barracks at twenty minutes past eight , instead of at nine o ' clock , being in fact the same time that the infantry return , except on pass , the cavalry regiments being allowed the extra time iu consequence of . their hiving to attend the evening stable duty . On the first night after the order , the whole of the troop , with the exception of about a dozen , disobeyed thc injunction , and did not return to barracks until nine o'clock . Three of the more refractory absented themselves until later , and were
made prisoners and confined in the guard-room . Early on the following morning in consequence , it is said , of the prisoners fearing their crime would warrant their trial by a court-martial , the whole three determined to make their escape , which they did by fcnockinz down the corporal on guard-afr the time , and also the sentry , who disputed their passage . As soon as tins was reported to the officer in command , he immediately sent after them a piquet , who for several hours scoured the neighbouring villages . Tn the afternoon the iusub'Jrdinates were discovered at
the villaue of Sheepshed , a densely-populated district three miles from Loughborough , where they surrendered at discretion . They were instanty conveyed back to their quarters . The men were without tlieir caps . and jacket ? . This occurred on Friday , on which day Colonel Arthur was at Loughborough . On Monday morning , at eight o ' clock , the three prisoners , Privates Vincent , Wcsthall , and Cammon ,-were taken by Sergeant Carey , and a party of the 3 rd to Nottingham barracks , where they now remain confined . The sentences of William Butterworth , Edward Ball , and Robert Knox have not yet been affirmed at the Ilovse Guards . The other offenders connected with thc . late insubordination . John Turner , John Holmes , Alfred John Ellis , Edward Smithson , Robert Reuben Pearce , Charles Peters , and Johu Wall , who were sentenced to hard labour , wore conveyed a few days ago to Weedon barracks , there to undergo their various terms of
imprison men t . Exculpation op a Railway Clerk from a Chaugb ov Fraud . —A young man of highly respectable appearance , named Broadbent , a clerk of the Salford station of the East Lancashire Railway Company , was charged before thc Salfovd magistrates on Monday , with attempting to defraud the company of a binall amount of money , the substance of the charge being that thc defendant had retained in his hands ( an excess of fare paid to another clevk by a passenger ) , without entering it in the company ' s books or otherwise accounting for it . The charge was supported by Mr . Hocking , the general manager for the company , and was pressed wilh somewhat of severity , since the case could not be called one of
embezzlement or of absolute fraud , as in cases of this Itind where an amount of money over the checks is Observable , amomovandum is generally made , though it is not entered in the company ' s books , and the money is generally voted to a benevolent fund ; but in all cases where money is deficient , the clerk is held responsible for such deficiency . MrTrafford , tlie stipendiary magistrate , displayed a good deal of generous warmth on the occasion . He said there was not the least evidence to prove that the money ever found its way into tho defendant ' s pocket ; that lie was not near at tho moment it was paid , and that there was no evidence to show that he did not intend to return it to the passenger before mentioned on the first occasion he might meet with him . The Mayor of Salford , who , with Mr . Traft ' onl , was on the bench , expressed , as his oniiiion . that it was
nnnccessarily severe on the part of tho company thus to bring forward such a case with such evidence , and to attempt to ruin a man for life by fixing the stigma of crime upon him when tho charge was so totally unsupported . Mr . B .-oadbcnt , the defendant , w * s most honourably acquitted , and retired from the court amidst tlie congratulations of his friends . The Appearance of a Msrmaid ix Durham . -At the Bishop Auckland Police Court recently John Davis , stating himself to have been up to a short period attached to Batt y ' s Equestrian Com-P anyI but now out of employment , was charged by I .

The Wrecked on the Essex Coast . —Conviction op Twenty-seven Smacksmen .-On Monday the magistrates for thc Tendring Hundred ot lissex were engaged during the greater part of the day in the hearing of a case against no less than twenty-seven smacksmen and stone-dredgers , belonging to tbe ports of Colchester and Hawfck , for i aw u Iy boarding the brig Fleece , of Arbroath , Scotland , lately wrecked on the Essex coast , when in the charge of parties employed by the master , and rnrnSMn

so make Harwick she filled , and sunk on the flat of the Naze , off Walton , but in such a position as only to be covered at high water . After the captain had en « aged the hands of three or four crews to assist in working out the cargo , a number of others applied for , but were refused , employment ; and some of the defendents were pointed out as among the number . In consequence of the continued violence of the weather very little could be done on the Monday , but in the evening the wind moderated , and during the ni"ht the wreck was completely surrounded by fishing smacks and store-boats , the crews of which , in spite of the warnings of the men in charge , and the subsequent order of the master to desist , crowded on board
to the number of nearly ISO , and in the most lawless manner cut away the rigging , brukeup the decks , and literally scrambled for the cargo , so as completely to put a stop to the measures which had been commenced for lightening the vessel and getting her afloat ; and which , it was the opinion of the most experienced witnesses , would otherwise have been successful , instead of her becoming a complete wreck , as was eventually the case .--After hearing Mr . Rodwell in defence , the Bench decided to convict all thc parties—four who were proved to have been previously cautioned , in penalties of £ 4 and the remainJer 403 . each , or in default imprisonment for one or two m » nths respectively , the chairman remarking that tbat
but for an impression which appeared to prevail they had a right to act as they did , much heavier punishment would have been inflicted . —Mr . Clarkson remarked that the parties for whom he appeared had no vindictive object , but merely desired to put down a system of lawless violence which had for some time prevailed , and he was sure the decision of the Bench would be of considerable benefit to all those who might in future meet with disasters on this coast . Murder of a Qame Watcueu . —A melancholy tragedy has been committed in the remote and wild district of Bewcastle , on the borders between Scotland and East Cumberland . Thomas Davidson , the victimhad been for many years a game watcher
, for Sir James Graham . On the 8 th inst ., the deceased went his usual beat upon the hills , but not returning , considerable alarm was felt , and an active search made , the body , however , was not discovered until the 11 th inst ., when it presented the appearance of strangulation . Suspicion immediately fixed upon Joseph Hogg , one of the prisoners , a notorious poacher in the district , who had , about a fortnight ago , been fined on tho evidence of the deceased . On that occasion he threatened deceased . The father of the accused is now in gaol , undergoing imprisonment for poaching , also upon the evidence of tho deceased . On Monday at the investigation before Mr . Carrick , the coroner , it was shown that the
prisoners , Joseph Hogg , Nichol Hogg , alias John Mchol , and Andrew Turnbull , had been seen together several times during the week , and had been out poaching in the neighbourhood where deceased was found on tho day he was murdered . After the investigation had proceeded several hours on the second day , Andrew Turnbull expressed a wish to make a statement to Mr . Sabbage , the suporintendant of police , and which was to tho following effect lie and tho prisoners , Joseph Ilogg , Nichol Hogg , alias John Nichol , had gone out together poaching on tho morning of the day of tho murder , and they then agreed that if they met the deceased they would kill him . After shooting the whole day .
they were on their , return home at night , when the deceased saw and chased them about 100 yards . Joseph Hogg and Nichol Hogg then turned round upon and seized the deceased , and strangled him , but he , Turnbull , ran away , and left the other two prisoners , and was thus unable to give further particulars . The last that he saw was Hogg and the deceased falling down together . The prisoner , Joseph Hogg , had a scratch over his upper lip , and a pair of breeches of his were produced bearing a mark of blood upon the knee . The inquest was then adjourned for further evidence until the 20 th inst ., and the three prisoners committed to Carlisle gaol during the interval .
Melancholy Catastrophe at Louth . — Five Lives Lost . —About three o'clock in the afternoon of Saturday last the inhabitants of this borough were thrown into a state of considerable alarm and consternation by a terrific explosion of combustibles , on the premises of Mr . W . Armitage , chemist ancT druggist , of the Fish Shambles . About two years a » o , that gentleman , who was a member of the town council , highly respected by his fellow townsmen , and possessed of high scientific attainments as a practical chemist and pyrotechnist , invented a valuable explosive railway signal , for the purpose of indicating any danger that might arise on a railway line , and having received orders of late from several companies
for a considerable number , was engaged on the afternoon above-mentioned in the manufacture of them . The place in which this was carried on was a warehouse immediately over the kitchen , which stood detached a few feet from the dwelling-house , and Mr . Armitage , his father , Mr . Thomas D . Armitage , a youth named Stephen Evans ( the son of a neighbour , ) and Mary Jane Evans , his sister , were employed . In . the kitchen below were Eliza Wilson , Mr . Armitage ' s housekeeper , and a servant . When Mr , W , Armitage entered , and opened the door of an iron oven to take out some paste of a combustible nature , of which the signals are made , and which had been placed there to bake or dry , from some cause or other it . exploded with a terrific report , igniting the combustibles in the warehouse above , reducing
the whole building to a heap of ruins , and burying thc above named persons under the burning mass , with tliccxccprioii uf the servant maid , Roberts , who miraculously escaped through a window , who , with a little boy of Mr . Armitage ' s in her arms sustained little injury except from fright Ihe asssistance of the police , with their superintendent , Mr . Tacey , and one of the fire en-ines attached to the force , were promptly procured ; the fire being extinguished ) operations commenced , with the assistance of a great number of the inhabitants , for the removal of the ruins and extrication of the sufferers . The first who was got out was Eliza Wilson , the housekeeper , alive , but her legs being so crushed and her body having sustained so much injury from burns and bruises , that she gradually sunk
™ 'eu auout tnree hours afterwards , The youth livans , was then taken out , and survived but a verv short time . The other three , Mr . Armitage , hi father , and the girl Evans , were quickly and successively extricated , but were quite dead . All the poor sufterers presented a most horrible spectacle , beiV charred by the fire and mutilated by the fall of the building , almost beyond possibility of recognition except tram thnr dress , or that portion of it which remained untamed . Too much praise cannot be awarded to the inhabitants , of all classes , who assisted m extinguishing the fire and removing the rums reckless of the danger around them arisinfrom the explosion , at intervals , of rockets , sisals S ^ fe which ^ - ™» S-

Buriaiof DissENiEns in Consecrated Ground . —The Archbishop of Canterbury has recently been applied to by a dissenter , who complained of the conduct of a clergyman , thc Rev . J . M . Randall , curate of Rowestoft , for refusing to bury the children of dissenters , on the ground of their being unbaptised . The following is his Grace ' s answer : — " In reply to your letter , I write to say , that the curate of your parish 13 obliged to bury with the usual forms the corpse of a dissenter , provided tbe church service be not objected to . The only exception is
in the case of persons dying unbaptized . These the Rubric expressly excludes ; and the Rubric differs from tho canons in being established by act of parliament , so that a clergyman is under the necessity of conforming to it . 1 agree with you in the opinion , that when the non-baptism is not notorious and patent , as it is in thc case of baptist children , no curious inquiry should be made . A clergyman maybe indicted for violation of the canons ; but the earlier ones to which you » allude are superseded by . the Toleration Act . " —Cambridge Independent Press .
Serious Occurrence at Britannia Bridge . — A mishap of a very serious kind haa occurred this week connected with the operation of lowering the great hydraulic machine from the summit of the pier . The capstan gang , nine or ten in number , seized with a panic , suffered themselves to be overpowered ; and the consequence was most serious injury to two of the men—one being dreadfully bruised about the head , the other having sustained compound fracture of the thigh . The tide being favourable , the poor fellows were taken in a boat to Carnarvon hospital . The press went to the bottom , and will have to be fished up again .
Manslaughter by a Pauper . —A disturbance , which was attended with serious results , occurred on Monday at Clifton Workhouse , near Bristol . As the paupers were partaking of their meals a dispute arose between two of them named Samuel Roach and James Jone ? , owing to Jones snatching Roach ' s can of tea out of iiis hands ; upon which Roach started up , and forcibly regaining possession of the can threw the contents of it in Jones ' s fac 3 . This so aggravated Jones , who has always borne the character of being a very ill-tempered man , that , espying a long-handled
brush at Uie other mid of the room , he ran and caught hold of it , and with the butt-end dealt Roach a violent blow on the back of the head , fracturing the skull in a most frightful manner . The poor fellow lingered till the next morning , when he died , in inquest was held on the body on Tuesday , afternoon at the workhouse , before Mr . W . Jo ' yner Ellis , coroner , when evidence of the above facts having been adduced , the jury returned a verdict of "Manslaughter , " and Junes accordingly was committed for trial on the coroner ' s warrant , St
