expressed a hope that this example would be followed, I beg 
to inform you, for the information of the craft in general, 
that at a Provincial Grand Lodge for this coun y, held 
at Stowmarket on the 25th of October last, at which 
the P.O.M., Sir E. S. Gooch, M.P., presided, the sum of 
ten guineas was voted in aid of the above object ; aud, further, 
that the Perfect Friendship Lodge, No. 522, Ipswich,

Union Lodge, No. 131, of the same town, has subscribed the 
like sum. 
By this you will perceive that his Lordship’s wishes have 
beeu anticipated in this province, and I hope in many others. 
I am, Sir, yours obediently,

HORRIBLE MURDER IN WARREN-STREET, 
FITZROY-SQUARE. 
A twofold murder of the most atrocious and determined 
character took place last night, about a-quarter before nine 
o'clock, in Warren-street, Fitzroy -square. 
The victims are, first, Mr. George Moore, soda-water manu- 
facturer, of No. 73, Warren-street ; and, secondly, Mr. Charles 
Collard, greengrocer, of No. 74, in the same street, who, 
upon hearing a cry of “murder" in the adjoining house, ran 
out, and in an attempt to arrest the assassin, was shot 
through the body. 
The circumstances under which this most diabolical 
tragedy took place are as follows : — About a quarter past 
eight o'clock last night an engineer named Bartlemy, who i . ., . .. . 
1.M heen oocuiondly employed V Mr. Moore in hi, tasines, A ■ umour of jealouey having been the cause of the tragedy 
as a soda-water manufacturer, called upon him in Warren- I *“ ourrent ' .. bu ‘ could not be _ Inert to any mtelhgihle 
the prisoner was sent for, Mr. Checkley meantime taking 
down the dying man’s statement. 
At a quarter to one o’clock this morning the prisoner was 
brought into the ward, where his victim lay surrounded bv 
his weeping relatives. 
The prisoner is a remarkably fine-looking young man 
about the middle stature, and with a foreign expression of 
countenance. He manifested no emotion whatever. 
On being brought to the bedside of the dying man, Mr 
Checkley having asked C'ollard whether the man he saw 
before him was the one who shot him, Collard replied dis- 
tinctly, — “O, yes ; that is the man !’’ And then addressing 
the murderer, added, “ Oh, you cruel man.” 
Mr. Checkley theu read Collard'a statement ns follows 
I, Charles Collanl, of No. 74, Warren-street, say, that about a quarter 
to nine o'clock, p.m., this day, I heard the report of a pistol and the cry 
of “ Murder." in No. 73, Warren-street. I went there and found a man 
attempting to escape. I prevented him. He then re-entered the house 
and fastened the door in Warren-street, and got out at the back, I rai| 
into the Now-road and caught hold of him as he was getting over the 
garden-wall, when lie pulled a pistol from Ills pocket, and shot me 
through, and I fell. The man run away. Another mall was standing 
near me at the time, who tried to hold him, but ho got away. The man 
I now see Is he who shot me. I am certain of that. I have made this 
statement believing that I am dying. 
Cuaules Collard, his mark. 
a R. Checkley, Inspector of Police. 
Henry Kiallmark, House Surgeon, 
University College Hospital. 
The dying man again repeated his assurance of the identity 
of the murderer, who all this time looked on sternly, without 
moving a muscle. 
The necessary forms of signature, &c., having been gone 
through, the assussin was conducted back to the station- 
house, wheuce he will be brought up this morning for exami- 
nation at Marlborough-street Police-court. 
There certainly never was a case more deserving the sym- 
pathy of the public than that of the family of poor Collard. 
He was formerly a constable in the E division of police, and 
to this circumstance may probably be attributed the aptitude 
he exhibited on this dreadful occasion. He will leave a widow 
and two children, his wife being now pregnant. He was 
attended last night by liis wife and a twin brother. 
street. He was accompanied by a young woman, and both 
were received by Mr. Moore, as friends, aud conducted into the 
back parlour, where, accordiugto thestatements of Mr. Moore’s 
female servant, they remained for about twenty minutes, with- 
out anything having occurred toexcite her observation. At the 
expiration of that time her attention was arrested by a sound 
of something like a scuffle She listened for a moment, 
when the noise increased, aud the cry of “ Murder” followed. 
She ascended the kitchen staii’3, and as she came in view of 
the back-parlour door, she saw her master and the engineer 
Bartlemy come out and engage iu what appeared to her to 
be a deadly struggle in the passage. Before she could re- 
cover herself, she heard a pistol go off, aud the next mo- 
ment her master fell a corpse. Bartlemy instantly left 
the house by the front door, but being met by the unfortunate 
man Collard, who opposed his escape, the assassin returned 
into the house, shutting the door after him, and instantly re- 
treated by the garden entrance, which opens into the New- 
road. Poor Collard, on finding his intention of arresting the 
murderer iu Warren-street defeated, immediately hastened 
round into the New-road, anticipating that the assassin 
might endeavour to escape by that route. He was right, but 
his judgment and admirable presence of mind have cost him 
his life, and left a family of young children fatherless, with a 
widowed mother. Bartlemy was in the act of scaling the 
garden-wall and jumping on to the pavement in the New- 
road, when Collard seized liim. The murderer instantly 
drew a pistol from his pocket and shot the courageous fellow 
in the abdomen. The ball took full effect, aud Collard fell 
helpless on the ground, the assassin rushing off, and. for a 
moment, seeming to escape. But, providentially, this second 
murder had been witnessed by another person, who followed 
the wretch and speedily made him prisoner. A crowd soon 
collected round poor Collard, who was caaried off to the 
University College Hospital — the assassin being consigned 
to the custody of the police and conveyed to the station- 
house in George-street, St. Giles's. 
Mr. Superintendent Foxall, with Inspector Checkley, of 
this division, were soon upon the spot, investigating* the 
matter, and from what they discovered no doubt seems to 
exist that the murder of Mr. Moore was one of the most cold- 
blooded and determinated crimes ever perpetrated. The 
back-parlour of the murdered man's house presents all the 
appearance of a most deadly struggle having taken place. 
The walls are spotted with blood iu several places, and the 
furniture, including a strong and substantial mahogany 
chair, broken to pieces. Upon the floor of the room was 
found a piece of broken cane, heavily loaded at one end with 
lead. There are marks upon the deceased’s person which 
shows that ho must have been struck with this weapon in 
the first instance, and the handle to the bludgeon has been 
broken into two pieces. 
Mr. Moore, after having been brutally ill-treated by his 
assailant, seems to have almost succeeded in overpowering 
him, upon which the assassin drew from his pocket the pistol 
and shot his victim in the face. 
There are marks in the room which lead to the supposi- 
tion that, at the moment of the first attack taking place, the 
deceased was in the act of opening a soda-water bottle. 
Inspector Checkley at once endeavoured to discover the 
woman who had accompanied Bartlemy to Mr. Moore's house. 
All inquiries on this head have, however, failed to elicit any- 
thing of a satisfactory nature. For the present nothing ap- 
pears to be known of this woman. 
The murderer has maintained a rigid silence from the 
moment of his arrest, and has not even acknowledged his 
name to be Bartlemy. 
Superintendent Foxall, with Inspector Checkley, went to 
the University College Hospital as early as possible after in- 
formation of the tragedy had reached them. From Mr. 
Henry Kiallmark, house-surgeon to this institution, they at 
once ascertained that Collard was iu a moat dangerous condi- 
tion, and that, under scarcely any circumstances whatever, 
could his life be saved. Mr. Kiallmark informed the officers 
that the bullet had entered llie abdomen on the left side of 
the navel, and had passed completely through the body to 
within a quarter of an inch of the surface of the back, from 
which it had been extracted by him immediately after the 
sufferer’s admission. The poor fellow was suffering great 
pain, and exhibiting all those dangerous symptoms which 
generally precede death in similar cases. A brief consulta- 
tion satisfied the officers that the proper course would be at 
once to take the dying man’s deposition, and for this purpose 
source ; on the contrary, the deceased’s gold watch was 
stated to be missing, which leads to a presumption that rob- 
bery must have instigated the murder. 
A small detachment of French Sappers aud Miners (seven 
men and one sergeant, under charge of Lieutenant Latreille, 
officer of the Legion of Honour) traversed the streets of 
London yesterday in heavy marching order. They landed 
at London-wharf at half-past twelve from Calais, and marched 
through Cheapside, Holborn, Oxford-street, Edgware-road, to 
the Great Western Railway terminus, en route for Gloucester, 
to take charge of a number of wooden huts constructed 
there for the French army in the Crimea. The lieutenant 
and his men were sumptuously entertained in the Great 
Western Hotel, free of charge, aud, by the kindness of Cap- 
tain Buckley, were forwarded to their destination by the ex- 
press train at ordinary fares. 
We understand Major-General the Duke of Cleveland ha 3 
gallantly declared that he will accompany the regiment of 
the South Durham Militia, of which he is colonel, wherever it 
is ordered to proceed — whether to any part of the United 
Kingdom, to Gibraltar, or even to the Crimea. When such 
examples as these are set by the head of a regiment, the men 
will not be slow to volunteer to do likewise. 
MANCHESTER.— Friday. 
Since the return of those who took flight for Wolverhampton, the 
operations upon future events — beyond the settling — has left us very 
little to record ; the only horse backed yesterday was Grn?culus 
Esuriens for the Derby, about whom 100 to 10 was taken three times, 
and afterwnrds offered. To-day, for the same event. Lord of the Isles 
would have been backed for money at 100 to 8, but 100 to 9 was the 
highest price obtainable. De Clare seems very " flshey," and what 
would be his taking price we are unable to say, but 1 3 to 1 could bo 
obtained without difficulty. The favourite was not mentioned. The 
Reiver, for tho Chester Cup, was backed at 50 to 1, to win near £2,000, 
the same figure being offered against anything for the Great Metro- 
politan Stakes, and 5 to 1 was offered on the field for the Two Thousand 
Guineas Stakes.

Miss Els worthy playing the three parts of Julia Amor, 
Phrebe Pop, and Louis Bertrand. The last role was quite 
a hit. 
Soho Theatre. — An amateur performance was given on 
Friday evening. Dec. 1, at the Soho Theatre, in aid of the 
Patriotic Fund. The theatre was taken by a well-known 
supporter of the drama — Mr. Arcedeckne — on his own 
responsibility, and the whole of the receipts were devoted 
to the benevolent object of the performance. Mr. Arce- 
deckne's undertaking achieved a success worthy of the spirit 
which suggested it, £70. 4s. having been realised for the fund, 
and the audience having been gratified by a very pleasant, 
well-arranged evening's entei'tainment. Mr. Arcedeckne, 
who is vice-commodore of the Royal Harwich Yacht Club, 
has also made a most acceptable present to the army in the 
Crimea in the shape of 10,000 pipes, a most acceptable boon 
to our brave soldiery,
