THE TJ 2 JI 0 N . A Monthly record of Moral , Social , and Educational Pregress . London : Sherwood , Gilbert , and Piper . This is asew candidate for public favour , wiih no inconsiderable pretensions . The SIT of benevclenCB is breathed through it in a spirit of calm and useful investigation , having alwavs chitfiy in view the enhancement of the happines 3 and conifers of the great complex of . society . The initiatory article is "written in a spirit which we ^ cannctiat admire . The following extract setting fonh the purpose of the Work , will serve sa shew our . readers something of iits manner : —
" We purpose to observe and aid the movement in the cirrctioa indicated in the preceding remarks ; to assist in stimulating 2 nd guiding public opinion to make such alterations in the system which prod aces the evils sbok = n o ? , as may be consonant with the dictates of justice , humanity , and reason ; and to aid in replacing dtfretive arrangements , by institutions calculated to develops superior principles of action among all c asses of society . In the pursuit cf ihese objects we shall appeal to reason , in the spirit of nuiTersal toleration , convinced it is from these S 0 UIC £ 3 ilone that rational wfinns can emanate .
Tie mere fault-finding spirit , which blames others , withoni showing better modes of procedure , h *« prevailed too long . Its continuance can only aggravate , not diminish , the evils which are the subject cf universal ccmplaiDi . It must , therefore , be superseded by a ne-w spirit and s es-w philosophy , - wiiieil vnii regard individuals with charity , while shewing no quarter to the erroneous principles , or vicious institutions , by ¦ which they are blinded or depraved . TLis philosophy trill enable its disciplea to take & large and unsectarian view of all Eubjec ' -s ,
r From seeming evil , still educing good . ' It "will teach the lesson , that every event has ita place and object in the great progressive movements of humanity ; that there is a truth to b =: found in every modification of individual and collective opinion ; that it is because of the truth , not the error , that all opinions are professed ; and it will aim at collecting together these isolated truths in harmonious combination , and applying them practically to produce general prosperity , onion , and happiness . " "Music—Popular Singing" follows the opening article , and makes us acquainted -with the efforts of
the enthusiastic M . Mainzer , the Peter the Hermit of the £ isging crusade . It is interesting , and evidently comes from the ptn of one vrho has the taste and information requisite re do justice to the subject . The nest piece , entitled "Woman the great Eocial Reformer , " is devoted to the laudable purpose of endeavouring to rescue the fairest of God ' s works from degradation , and to point out the pany ways in which her character influences and gives tone to all society * We give from it the following passage : — .
"It isincalculable , how greatly the influence of "woman , properly directed , might tend to humsnizs mankind , and to prodnce harmony and ptactfnlness among the various classes of society . The elevation of the standard of moral excellence—the removal of sectarian and party prejudices—the diffusion of a tasta for the elegxnt , the refined , and the beautiful—the cultivation of & high tone of conversation—the spread of politeness , courtesy , neatness , and cleanliness , these units in the great sum total of happiness , —all this would be effected by th » moral and intellectual improvement of woman . Possessing a power bo extensive , and holding « a influence so universal , the community have , indeed , a right to ask that it should be properly directed . Governing the morals of the world , and influencing so ttaterially the' social happiness of our race , we are sorely justified in demanding that that icflaEuce should

be directed to the highest possible object " . Ltt it not be said that we wish to increase the influence of woman . That ia BOt possible : in the sphere in which she now moves , that Influence is now fearfully extensive . ' ' Fearfully . ' we ssy , because misdirected . We need nob think cf keeping power from woman , when she already governs the world , as Bsnth&m says , -with ' the "whole power of a despot . ' She is more thau governor :, she is the creator of society , Its architect , and upholder . In aiming after the improved education of woman , therefore , we do not Beek to increase female influence , but merely to direct it to lofty and salutary purposes . It is to ennoble their motives , and to ele vate " society to a loftier eminence than it has yet reached . This is the age of utility . I ^ et us apply the pricctpla here as elsewhere . Xet us , in short , make the most of woman , by bo directing her power as to increase the amount of general happiness . **
Other papers follow , on the " Factory System , " " The Study of Man and Society , " &c . All are , however , solid , reasoning , and didactic . There is nothing of what is usually called light reading . This , to ns a great recommendation , will , we fear , be regarded as a drawback by the taste of the age . The forte of the Conductor is evidently in close investigation . His own imagination is completely tamed by the reasoning faculty , and he forgets the rage for " amusement" in the magazine-loving world .- We suspect , however , that he will find it necessary to indulge this taste to some extent ; and indeed , when it can be well directed and made the means of higher ends , we know not that it ought to be entirely neglected .

THE MURDER AT ROEHAMPTON . APPBEPENSIOJf OF THE MURDERER . The inhuman monster , Daniel Goo 1 , whose perpetration of a murder as foal and unnatural as any recorded in the annals of crime , and whose escape for so long a period from the hands of justice , have occupied so long a portion of publio attention , is , we are happy to say , at length apprehended , and is now in saiie custody in Maidsfcone Gaol . The circumstances connected with the discovery .: of the retreat of the murderer and his apprehensioD are as singular aa were those under which the first discovery of the murder was made .
The first intimation of the apprehension of Good received in the metropolis was brought by the coachman and passengers of the Hastings coach , whioh , in its progress to town , paBSeB through the town of Ton bridge , in Kent , about thirty-8 ix miles from London . Scarcely any credence was at first placed in the information so received , in consequence of the many erroneous statements which had gone forth previously . The commissioners of tho metropolitan police were the fir 3 t who received any positive information as to the apprehension of the murderer , whicQ intelligence was brought to the head office ia Scotland-yard by Mr . G . W . Humphrey , the superintendent of tha special constabulary force of
Tonbridge , who left that town at a quartsr-past four o ' clock on Saturday afternoon , after the examination of the prisoner . The following particulars may be relied upon : — On the night of Sunday se ' nnight , about eleven o ' clock , the individual calling himself Connor , but supposed to be Good , came into the town of Tortbric ' go iu a fish van , and slept for the nUbt at the Bull public-house . He brought with him a large bundle tied up in two handkerchiefs , and was dressed in a baragan jacket and trousers , low shoes , a dark cloth cap , without a peak ot front , dirty blue-striped shirt , and black neckerchief . Soon after he had entered the house , he inquired of the persons in tho tap-room if there was any work to
be obtained io tho place , and told them he was a bricklayer ' s labourer . He was told by the persons whom lie had aidressed that ho might probably soon obtain employment , as there were several buildings ia the course of erection in the town . After that he retired to rest , and rose about a quarter past six o ' clock the next ( Monday ) morning , and left his bundle at the public-house , whilst he went , as he alleged , to seek for work . About a quarter to seven o'clock on the same morning , he applied for work as a bricklayer ' s labourer to the foreman of Mr . Henry Barrett , a builder in Tollbridge , who is erecting some cottages near to tho South Eastern Railway . The foreman , from tho man ' s appearance , had some doubts as to his actually being a
bricklayer's labourer , and he in consequence questioned him as to how long he had acted m such a capacity . The man replied , iliat he had been a brickJayePs labourer for upwards of eighteen years , and that he had been working on the line , meaning the South Eastern Railway , for 14 days . The foreman , boing in want of hands , then took him on , and found that hs perfectly understood his business . From the time of entering on his work , hs appeared to shun and avoid eommunlcarion with his feliow-workmen , and if questions were asked by them he returned a short and abrupt answer . It was noticed by tho foreman and others on ouc octaeiou that ha addressed one of his fellow- ? abcurer 9 iu the Irish language . The man whom ha ad < ive ? -i ; d , and whom ho had
evidently taken for an Irishman , not understanding him , made no reply ; and he , from that time , made no further at : ejnpt to enter into conversation with those about him . lie adhered steadily to his work , came at the proper hours , and on k-aviug at mght went at once to private lodgings , whish-he had on the Tuesday taken at tho house of a female named Audrey , not far irom the Bull . Upon i . is applying to take those lodging Mrs . Audrey arked him what he was , when ha told her ho wig a hawker and dealer in hare aud rabbit skins , but that latterly he had left tff that business in consequence of the person to whom he used to sell them in London having become insolvent . Mrs . Audrey said that she had noticed many peculiarities of conduct iu the
man during his residence in her house . He n-aa very restless at night , during . which she frequently heard him sighing and moaning ,- and when any person knocked at tho door he seemed scarcely able to command his feelings , and was exceedingly anxious to know what their business was , and who they were . Ho continued at his work until the morning of last Saturday , when a man names Thng . Ro > e , who had formerly been a constable of the V division of the metropolitan police , and while so was stationed at Wandswor ; h , but who now is a labouring man residing in Tonbridge , saw the man calling himself Connor at work , and immediately reefguising him as the murderer Good , accosted him , and said , " Why , you are the man Good . Your
name is Daniel Good . " Tho man replied , " No , it is not ; my name is James Connor . " Rose then said , 11 Why , you are he that I have seen in Putney Park Lane ; you was coachman to a gentleman there . " The man told him he was mistaken ; he . never had been s coachman , and was q'nte unacquainted with any place called Putney Park Lane . Ro ? e then said " Oh , 1 have seen you frequently at the stabJes opposite to Mr . Huttoa ' s , and you know young Houghton . " Tne man again denied all knowledge of either the place or the person he was alleged to be intimate with , but he did so in bo contused a manner as at once to convince Rose that he was no other than Daniel Goo <] , the murderer . Rose did net then
attempt to take the alleged Connor into custody , but gave private directions to some persons near to watch him , whilst he ( Rose ) went to give information io Mr . Humphrey , the superintendent of police . That officer returned with Rose , and , feeling satisfied there was sufficient in the appearance of the man and in his conduct to warrant his detention , took him into custody , and conveyed him to the watch-house . Mr . Hare , a resident magistrate , was then sent for , who direcied tho prisoner to ba brought before him at the offices of the magistrate ' s clerk , Mr . Sec-one . Mr . Hare took hie aea . t upon the bench at tvro o'clock . Previous to evidence to the above effect being gone into .
Mr . Hire addressed the prisoner and said , " You are here charged in the name of James Connor , altos Daniel Good , upon suspicion of having murdered a woman named Jane Jones . Perhaps you will tell me what is your real name 1 " The prisoner replied , firmly , that it was James CoDnor , that he had known no woman named Jane Jones , and that be had not been guilty of any act of murder or violence . Air . Hare then ordered the case to be proceeded with , and the facts above Btated constituted the ma jor part of the evidence adduced .
The prisoner , we should hare stated , upon his entering the court , and being placed at the bar , took from-his' pocket a comb , and with it turned back the hair from his forehead , so aa to hide ( U 3 that was , apparently , Wb Object ) , a bald p lace on his head , Thia circumBtanco was not unnoticed , and for this reason , that in a description of Daniel Good issued by the Commissioners of Police , it was stated to be the practice of the murderer to do so . Throughout the examination , which occupied upwards of two hours , the prisoner maintained a firm and collected dtmeanour , until the witness Rose waa placed in the witnc 33-box . when he iustantiy turned exceedingly pale , and tremblingly endeavoured to avoid the gaze of the witness by fixing his eyes steadily ou the ground . In personal appearance he fully answered the description already given of him in the Government Police Gazette , &c . After Rose had given his evidence in chief , —
Mr . Hare inquired of the witness if he had any particular reasons for supposing the prisoner to be the Daniel Good for whose apprehension a reward of £ 100 had been offered ? Rose repMed , he was confirimt that the prisoner was the murderer Good . Hid person was well known to him , having seen him both night and day , and at all hours , driving a phaeton and pair , and at times a single horse chaise . He had on numerous occasions conversed with him , and asked him for a light when at tho stables in Putney Park-lane . He was certain that the prisoner was the same man .
Mr . Haro then directed the depos-itions of the witnesses to be read over , afrer which he said , from the evidence which had been adduced before him he had no alternative but to commit the prisoner to Maidstone gaol , for Fare custody , until the police authorities in London could be communicated with on the subject . The prisoner would , however , be again brought up on Tuesday next , when the proper authorities would , no doubt , hi in attendance to identify him , should he pro re to be the individual buspecied . If , however , he wished to make any statement on the subject of the cr 3 rges against him he was at liberty to do so , but he would first caution him that everything he said would be taken down in writing by the clerk , and used against him should he criminate himself .
The prisoner declined making any statement , and he was shortly afterwards removed from the bar and conveyed , safely secured by two of the Tonbridge officers , in a post chaise , to Maidstone gaol . In the bundle , which it is above stated the prisoner brought with him to Tonbridge , were found the old drab frock coat , drab trousers , and gaiters , which were stated to have been worn by Good when he escaped from the stables in Putney Park-lane , on the night of the disorvery of the murder ; also a black plush jacket , with shalloon sleeves and gilt buttons , of the kind usually vroro by grooms , and a pair of mixed Tweed trousers , a small lookingglass , two white neckcloths , one with the marks cut out , and some old dirty stockings . About the prisoner ' s person was found part of a woman ' s calico apron , in one corner of which there was a spot of blood . Aho a silver hunting-watch , engineturDed , three sovereigus and a half , and three
halfcrowns . The excitement occasioned throughout the town and neighbourhood of Tonbridge during the afternoon and evening of Saturday , by the apprehension

in that distant locality from the scene of murder of a criminal whose name will l < wg be execrated , appeared to have much increased On Sunday ; persons Of all Classes flecking in during tbc day from Tonbridge ^ Wells and the adjacent villages , for the pnrpobo of Jearning the particulars , and to jmany the Bull public-house , the residence of Mrs . Audrey , and erections at which the prisoner worked , were objects of no small attraction . . Oir Saturday night Superintendent MaWien , of the K . division , accompanied by a private constable ofV division or police , who wasperfectiy acquainted with the person of the murdorer , proceeded , by ord « r ot the Commissioners of Police , in a post-chaise to Maidstone , which town they reached abonfc halfpart three o ' clock on Sunday morning . They immediately proceeded to the county gaol , and had an mtsrview with Mr . Bonethe to whom
, governor , they stated th % t they had been sent down specially for the purpose of identifying the prisoner Notwithstanding the unseasonable hour ( four o'clock ) the prisoner , along with two ' or three others of the inmates of the gaol , niost resembling the description of Good , were placed together ; in one cell , and nightcapa by direction of the governor placed on their heads . The V police constable was then introduced into the cell , and upon being required to point oui the man whom he suspected to be Daniel Good , instautiy went up to the prisoner , and said , " This is Daniel Good , " and pulled off his nightcap . Good Hung down his head , and refused to answer any of the questions put tq him . Having thus established the identity of the prisoner , Mr . Malaljeu immediately returned post to Scotland-yard , and communicated the result of his journey to the Commissioners of Police in Scotland yard ;
Shortly after the return of Mr . Malalieu to town , information was forwarded from the head office to the different station-houses tiirou > . hout the entire of the metropolitan police district , to the following effect : — "Daniel Good , the murderer , has been apprehoded and identified , and is now in Maidstoiie Gaol—April 17 th , 1842 . " The abovo announcement was stuck up outside several of the station houses , and appeared to give the greatest satisfaction to all persons by whom it was read . After Mr . Malalien had rested himself a little , WO understand an order was received at the Commissioflers' office , from the Home oflke , signed by Sir James Graham , Secretary of State for the Homo Department , addressed to the governor of Maidatone Gaol , directing him upon Bif ? ht thereof to deliver into the custody of superintendent Malalieu and the constable accompanying him , the body of James Connor , otherwise Daniel Good , in order that ha might be brought to town that night .

Fanny Hester said she resided at Priestbrk So . near Koehampton , and that about half-past fonr o ' t " lock on Sunday , the 3 d instant , the prisoner called at hei house , bringing with him a female , whom he introduced *« ms sister-in-law . She wore a bonnet similar to tht ' on 6 produced .- They had tea with her , arid he left ea r ^ « saying that he bad to wait at table .

He was anxious to know what further evidence Air . Bicknell ( the superintendent ) could produce ? : Mr . Superintendent Bicknell answered that he had gone as far ashe could with the evidence that day , and he wished for time until Thursday *
The magistrates' clerk then read over the depositions to the prisoner , and asked him whether he had anything to . say to the court 1—The prisoner made no answer . Mr . Hall , addressing the prisoner , said yoa are not bound to eay anything to me unlesa you are inclined . Whatever you Bay now will be taken down against you , and it is my intention to remand you nntil Thursday next for the production of other witnesses .

After the examination had concluded , and the prisoner had been removed to the waiting room , be observed , " Thank God , it is over for to-day . A man can but die once , and all I wish is that my body may not be given up for dissection , and all I nope is that they may not do so . " One of the constables observed that that was not likely , for if he were found guiity he would be interred inside the walls of Newgate , and have some slack lime thrown over his body . The prisoner then laughTug'y remarked , "An sure that'll burn the guts out of me . "
At a quartsr to two o ' clock a hackney-coach drew np iu front of the police court , and a fdw minutes afterwards the prisoner was kroud \ t out by Mr . Bicknell .

THE ENGLISH CHATVTIST CIRCULAR , AND TEMPERANCE RECORD , for England and Wales , Parts 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , and 6 . London , Cleave ' , ! , Shoe Lane , Flees Street . It is of coarss needless for U 3 to say any thing to the Chartist public about the merits of this little Work . They are well and universally known . We have here before ns 60 Numbers containing more sterling good matter for half-a-crown than we ever saw crammed into the like space , and offered at the ltke price . Here may be found nearly all ihe important addresses , and other documents , which have from time to time been issued by the Executive ; a series of most valuable lfcUers on topics connected wit
¦ h moral , social , and political regeneration , by Mr . T . B . Smith ; many pieces from the pen of M'Douall , all full of sound instruciion and fervent exhortation ; a vast mass of miscellaneous , li # bt and edifyiDg . reading , both pro = e and poetry . Add to these the fact that each number now contains a letter from Feargns U'Coimor , and the additional fact that the price of each number is One Halfpenny , and wo are quite sure that we have said enough to account for the finding of this advocate and a . serter of his right , on every woikJng man ' s tab ' e . As the first volume is now completed we advise every Chartist who can , to buy it , as a really cheap manual of pojines and patriotism . It is convenient as a book of reference for the documents of the Executive .

The prisoner was thon conveyed in a cab to the station-house of tho A division , iu Garduer ' s-laiie , King street , Westminster , whure on inquiry last evening we wereinformed that Gamraeli hautpassed nearly the whole of the day on his knoes in the ceil , repeating his prayers and telling his beads . About two o ' clock yesterday afternoon Inspector Poarce again went to Gainmell ' s lodging ? , for the purpose of making a more minute txarnination of the contents of the apartment than he was able to do at his first visit .

EXAMINATION OF THE MURDERER . By nine o ' clock on Monday morning , Bow-street , in tbe immediate vicinity ef ' the police court , was densely crowed by persons of both Biases , and of all ages , who were anxious to get a view , of the mnrdeier Good . They imagined they would jge ' t a glimpse of him aa he passed with the ordinary riight charges across the Btteet from the station cellB to the police court Those expectations -were disappointed , as lie had been icinoved ear ! y ia the rnnrning and placed in ono of the three cells adjoining the court , destined ordinarily for
prisoners wco have obtained u hearing , and who wait to be conveyed to one of the prisons in the police van . His wife was-also placed in . one of thevabovu celU , having been bronght from Spital-sqaare station in a cab by Sergeant Thornton , iut tbe E division ; and tho man , Richard Gamraeli , was conveyed hither from Ga diner ' sr lane , by Inspector Pearce , and placed in a third cell . Though the court was n » t excessively crowded , the very ¦ worst accommodation was afforded to parties belonging to the public press , notwithstanding they repeatedly made representations on the subject to the sitting magistrate , Mr . Hall .
The prisoner was introduced into Court very quietly at precisely half-past ten o ' clock , nnd no manifestation on the patt of the auditory marked his presence . He was dressed in a dirty fustiaa labourer ' s jacket and trousers , and wore a blue and white spotted cotton netfterchitf . In bis band he bad a brown atulf cap ¦ wvlho \ it a . peak . In appearance he is a man apparently about 45 , of swarthy complexion and dark visage , the under part of which projects , and if a dog bad such a nether jaw be would be called " undershot / ' The fore ^
head is of moderate size , and exceedingly wrinkled . His hair and whi ^ erB are jet black . ,- ¦¦ Altogether ha la a man of small b : z 9 , and by no means muscular . When placed at the bar he appeared perfectly calm and collected , and his first gestures were to stroke bis chin wit * his left hand , and to pass it over the crown of his head , rubbing the hair forwards over the crown , which was bald . He remained generally in one position , resting his cheek upon his left hand . Whenever any nolsd arose in court , he looked in the direction , and then his sunken small black eye appeared exceedingly piercing .
His wife who was in a cell near the court , kept weeping bo loudly that the prisoner could plainly hear her where he stood . Heir loud complaints did hot appear to move him . At the time the prisoner was placed in the dock , there were ou the bench , in addition to Mr . Hall , the presiding magistrate , Mr , Cottingbam , of Unian Hall , and several county magistrates , one of whom was busily engaged in taking a likeness of the prisoner upon a card . . Mr . Burnaby , the cierfc , asked the prisoner what was his name , to which he immediately replied in a firm tone , " Daniel Good . " The evidence of severa . 1 witnesses was gone into , by whom the facts of the finding the body , and its state when found , were spoken to as detailed in our accouct at the time . Tho following is the evidence of the identity of the body : —
Lydia Susannah Butcher examined . —{ 'This witness on entering ; the box sobbed aloud , and continued to do so during her evidence to such an extent that there was a considerable difficulty in understanding what she aaid . Good did not seem Jn any way affected by her presence or distressed Bitaation , ]—She said she had known the prisoner for many years , but did hot know he had a wife living . On Wednesday , the 6 th inst ., he came to her father ' s residence , and she saw him . He merely said he came to sets her , and had with him his little boy . He took tea 'frith her > nd h ( ir family , and did not remain long . Ha ealdi he was going to Putney ,
and took the chiid with him . He told ma he had brought Hie 8 gown , a bonnet , and a shawl , a pair of boots and gloves . He produced them , presented them tome , and told me they had belonged to Mrs , Good , who died five years ago . He did not assign , any reason for having kept tbeni so long . < The articles were here produced , and the witness identified them as those given to her by the prisoner . ) He t » id roe he had inwe things which he would bring me another time . He also told me he had a manalo in , South-sti'ttt , Manchester-squars , and that if I would go and see it he would cive it to nie .
By Mr . Hall—I was cot in t ' q « least ettuck by his manner that day . ¦ He was quite composed , and was perfectly sober . : Mr . Hall—A 3 composed as he is now ?—Witness—Yes , precisely the Bame . u Mr . Hall—Has any fact come to your knowledge since to throw anv"light on this transaction ?—Witness —Ne , Sir . ¦ '*' " ¦ :. ¦ \ ¦ '¦ , : ' . " ¦ Mr . Hall to the prisoner—Have you any question to put to this witness ?—The prisoner , bowing very low , answered in the negative .
Robert Parry , police Serjeant R 8 , said that , on Thursday , the 7 th instant , he went t » the residence of the last witness , and made ^ inquiries about tbe prisoner . She told him that the prisoner bad been there the day before , and had left some articles . The articles of female apparel that badi been produced were those he had received from the last witness , and he had kept them is uis possession ever since . He went afterwards to tiie * esWence of Mrs . Brown , in South-3 trett , who identified the articles as having belonged to JaniB Jones alias Good .-.- - .. ; - :- :-,: ¦ ¦ ¦ : ¦ ..

Mr . Maynanl , au at ' . ovnoy , who aUended for tho prosecution in this case , collect
Stephen Thornton , a sergeaut . of the E division . The witness said—I know the prisoners . I havo been employed to watch them sinca last Tuesday , as connected with the change against Daniel Good . Mrs . Gooil liyes in Plowef and Dean-street , Spitaifivlda . Gamble lives at No . 2 , Timlttl-buUdings , Gray ' s-inn ^ ane . WhU e watching the house of Mary Good on Tuesday last , 1 saw G ; amble go in about twelve o'clock . He came out again seon after , accompaniiBd by Mary Good aud another female . 1 watched theni about from place to place , nud about BbVen o ' clock in the evening they r ^ torned . I then remained : near the door of Mary Good's : house tiutii betwwn ulne and ten o ' clock , when I observed Gamble come out with a bundle . He had no bundle when he went in in the morning . The bundle was
tied up in a ted hiindkerchief . I believe the one now produced to be tho same , I followed him ( Gamble ) home . I saw hirii the next day , and followed him to a court in the Strand . On the 16 th instant , I went to his lodghiis with Inspector Pearce . I went up to the second floor front room , in which he ( Gamble ) slept . He was ? shortly after brought up , and I ssarched the room in his presence . Under the bed I found three gowns now pro ; uced . I heard Mr . Pearce ask him if he slept in tLat bed ; he said , yea . I searched Mra . Gsort ' s house on Sunday , and found the £ lue silk now produced on the sacking of the bed . Under the boltster I found a purse containing 3 s . lOd . and a bag . In a cupboard I found a small decanter , a chamber towel , same knives , a piece of black lining calico and two brass candlesticks .
Inspector Pearce said—I accompanied the last witness to Gamble ' s lodgings on Saturday last . I met Gamble in Gray ' s-ihu-lane . I asked him his name , he said , " What 8 that to you ? " I said , " Comeherei I ¦ want to apeafc to you , " and I took him to ; GfraVfl-fnhsquare . I there told him I was aa < Bicer , and asked him if he knew Good , who waa charged with the murder ? He said he did , and had not seen him for five years . I aaked him if he knew Mrs Good , and when he had seen her last He replied I saw her once last week . I asked him where .: He said in Flower and Dean-Gtreet , Spitalfields , I asked htm if
she had given him cv bundle . He said " No . " I asked him where he lived , and he told nid No . 2 , Tindalcourt . I then left him in the charge of another officer , aud went with Thornton to that place , I left Thoruton there , and returned and fetched Gamble . I asked bim if there wias any thing belonging to him in or about the bed , and on receiving an answer in tb . 9 nega * tive , I searched it , and found three gowns now produced rolled up in a shut . In snswer to a quastion as to where he get them , he replied , " Does that make any odds ? " I asked himagain , atvd received the same answer . I then took him to the staUon-house . I also
took a box which I found at his house , and on opening it , I found the Shut produced , which the prisoner said was his property ? 1 asked him if it wasniarked . He replied first " Yes , " and then " No . " I found a mark "S . Terry . " I took oat of the box a second shirt . Gamble then said he had them from a female . I said , " You have not told me who she is . " He said , " It is Mary Good . " They were in the parcel . Mary Ann Clarke—I live at 18 , Kouth-place , Mancheater-fcqnave . I knew Jiino Jones for three years . She wag called Jane Good during tlio last two years .
I saw her last at ten o ' clock on Sunday mornirg , April 3 . I never knew her to sleep out before that occasion . I Knew Daniel Good . He used to visit Jane Jones , and passed as her husband . I have , to the beat of my belief , seeen Jane Jones wear all the three gowns now produced ; The blue silk now produced is part of the sanie which she gave ltio a year and a half ago to make a bonnet . I knew it by the spots of mildew which are on tf . I do not know the purse , nor the reticule , nor the decanter now produced . I last saw Good about three weeks ago .
Edward Pritcfcard— -I live at No . . 3 , Essex-place , Hoxton . I know tho two prisoners by sight- I was at tiie George and Guy public-honse , Brick-lane , on Thursday last , and I eaw Mrs . Good and Gamble these . - I heard Mrs . Good say , " The last uigfct-. j" Baw poor Dan be said he was nfxaid he should- be taken , but that he would keep out of the way as long as he could .
