Lieutenant GRANT, in A duel, on the 20th of Joly last. . . No Counsel appealing on the pill of the Crown to prosecute, the witnesses were examined by the Judge.

Ha was>not, present at the duel, but first saw the deceaSed u he was carrying irons the field wheie the (Jae was fought to his lodging ; he had • very little conversation with the deceased till after he WAS put to bed, and it was then he declared the manner of his death. In his de- claration he stated, that a few days previous to the %Nei he had been abused by Ensign Hoey like a pick pocket, and he could not avoid acting as he had done ; that when he went to the round, he fired large of Hoer, determining not to injure him ; and he, ex pectgd, in return, that Hoey would have fired his pistol in the air.; that he did not deserve that treat- , pent from Enisgn Hoey, whom he had always used More like a brother than a hrotherofficer. Mr. Mitqatt.v.—lt is my duly. Sir, to cross-eta. Mine.you • but whatever course I take, let it ore be understood that I do not consider homicide in a duel, committed maliciously from rancorous motives of re venge, a high and heinous offence against the law of -Goa. the public peace, and the law of the land. You, , SQ, are a regimental surgeon ;—I am. Are yod a' qative of this country ?;-1 am not. You are from Scodand t—l am. Then you are front a brave, mi litary. and spirited people, always tenacious of their honour! Don't you conceive that the punctilios of htuour are most strictly adhered to by Officers of the Army 'than by gentlemen not of the military profes sion r—Certainly. Then have you any doubt that if on officer was so refuse a challenge he would incur the censure and contempt of every military corps t I think he would.—Would not his brother officers euclude him from their conversation. and send him to Coventry ? would they- not refuse to associate with him, and put him in a situation which, to a soldier, or any man of feeling, would be worse than death ? I do think so.—Were all the parties to this uefor tunate duel military men. both principals and seconds? —They were. All men of honour possessing the aprit de corps P—They were. Then they were all, beat particularly the principals, acting wider as impsriont im pals:' am isdispensihk attachment to their military charac ter:, and in witterscation of their honour P—l believe they were.—Did yon, Sir, ever tight a duelli—jklevee. Were you ever, as surgeon, or otherwise a spectator present, when a duel was fought ?—istlevet.—Were you never-in a military engagement ? Oh I often. -ft. Then you have seen a gun discharged; you have, seen the smoke issue from the muzzle ?..-Yes. But did you ever see the bill fly out.? No.-:-.Then, though Mr. Grant might have intended to fire large kens Mr. Hoey's person, could Mr. Hoey have a knowledge of that humane intention, unless he had been previously informed ? He could nut.—Was be previously. informed ? Nn.—Was ft not seuleJ that the combatants should fire together ; answer, Sir. have you not heard so ? I have.—And that they did fay together ?.;-Yes. Then I presume to observe, that Mr. Floey could not 'perceive whether Mr. Grant fired in a direct line at Mr. Hoey, or wide from his person. These gentlemen had been friends? Yes.-- Friends sometimes have quarrels that warm the pig skins, and are fatal in their consequences without being founded in malice ?—lt may be so.---Can you even suppose that this data was founded in malice te-I never did suppose that it was. Major Warbermn examined by Baron Ggoaras.' Sahibs heard of the duel on the 19th of July last, and be immediately ordered the prisoners, Ensign Hoeg said the two seconds, under close arrest, and reported the circumstances to the Commander of the district ; Colonel Walker; he then went to Lieutenant Grant's mom, whom-he found lying in bed ill, and had a con versation with him: the Lieutenant' aid,'" GOD knows ,did not deserve this." Baron Goons.—Did he then express that he , thought be was dying ?.-From what he said, I con ceive he thought himself in danger, but did not ex pect to die.--Did his expressions intimate that he was hopeless of life ? I cannot say be thought his life hopeless, but he had a very slight hope of reco vering. I sat by the deceased at his bedside until he expired, at six o'clock the next morning. Lieuteaant O'Bierne, examined by Mr. M 4 l•Ltu.v. —How did the dispute between Mr. Grant and Mr. /Joey originate ?—There was a dispute between them *out a pony won at a raffle jointly by them, which produced the letter tram Grant to Hoey. Have you ever known duels to be fought on trifling occasions between friends. in preservation of their character from an imputation of pusillanimity ?-4 have. If an officer submitted to an insult from a brother officer, would his submission incur the censure of his corps ? —J think it would. .Can you say that. malice sub. slated between the parties ?—I am sure there did not. Was any brother officer referred to for his opinion Lim u n the matter in dispute ?—Yes, a negotiation took, ace, and Captain D'Frogee was appointed umpire. id ensign Huey object to this agottation ?.Neahe was ready to accede to Captain D'Frogee's arbitra tion 4 and had Lieutenant Grant acceded. no duel would have taken place. Were you present at the duel ?—I was. Was fairly conducted ta—lt was on, both sides. Both acting like men of honour ?—Yes. Mr. AVltua.v..—My Lord we close the case for she defendants without calling' withesses to character. 2zare gentlemen, they are military corners in the ~ service, and could not bald it situation in the regiment in Which they have the honour lo serve, un less they IMO men of refined manners,' excellent eel-, dims, and worthy of esteem. _ _ Baron (kossoz recapitulated the evi44...ct es both Ofra *nevi:, Laid dame et WeetUe legal doctrine of homicide, murder of mance preputp..

Ilurke. and his two etinfede rates, Michael Hehir and Henry Evans. who were executed on Monday for,the murder of Thomas and Margaret Dillon, at Moyle, in ibis county. was one of peculiar atrocity.-. The witocu in these cases was a child of 14 years old, the daughter of the twamUrsiered persons.. The following is a statement °Pale teatintoily the gave on the trial of Burke and his two associates t —She deposed, that she was 14 years old, her father's name was Tom Dillon, her mother's Peg WA ; they lived in Castletoten-Waller, She knevi -and had always known, Tom Burke, alio lived at Plllaii-Keury, within about a mile of her la titer's house. jklere she was asked if she saw any body in Court she knew ? She turned round and identified Burke.) She remembered, she said, the night the people came to her father', house; the fa mily were in bed, her father asleep, and herself and mother awake; they heard a rapping, and her mother awoke her father ; he got up, and took a bayonet that was near the bed, and went towards the kitchen, when _he found the door dragged out on the road with a sledge; he then ran back to the bed room, shut the loor, and put his back against it, when they fixed through it from the outside, and he fell back dead on the bed where her little sister lay. There was a par.' tition in the room, and when the rapping first earnest the door, her mother shook hands with her, put her upon the partition, desiring her to mind her brother and sister, and to watch these people, as they had come to murder her father and herself. When her fathei vi) killed, the people broke into the bed room, in a comer of which ber mother was, with an infant in her arm% the witness's little sister in bed, and her self concealed on the partition. They called to her *other to go out, the dist,. saying, " Lord have mercy at my soul 1" to which they replied. " My good lady, you had no mercy when you were giving evidence on the Beach." When her mother went out, the witness caw down from the partition, and followed her; the people took her out on the road, and the witness went to the kitchen window. They were crying . out," Stick her and'sboot her, ". and she saw the prisoner put a gun rep to her mou th, and fire into it: They had at this time taken the child from her, and were holding her up at each side when the shot was fired. They then put her dowtion the ground, and stabbed her in both hreasts, after which they put her near a wall. The' witness was here asked how she knew any one, as it was night ? " Any nue would know them," said she, 14 it was moonlight, and some sods of turf, which put down before my mother and myself went to bed, were blazing on the hearth." When they put her mother near the wall, two men came into the house, when she ran into the room where the pig was: the men took out her father, and soon after two men came in and asked her hide sister for the bayonet. It 'Was in a potatoe barrel near the bed, and gave it to a man who wore white trowsers. They said they would not hurt her, mod went away shouting. Witness came from her biding place.'and again went to the window; and while there, the Men returned, and one said," the Devil would not kill the dog." and one of them took up a big stone, and broke his face with it. They then went away ; 'twas on a Friday night. and on the ire.' lowing Sunday, her father and mother were buried ; she staid in the house in the mean time, and " I gave the pot to my aunt," (said this interesting poor crea ture) for it was she who sewed my father's month." AS the people ip the neighbourhood refused to let her in, desired her, "to go to the Devil," in consequence of which she went away with her aunt, with whom she slept on Sunday night, and was nett day taken away by the Rev. Mr. Wesuopp, where she remained several weeks, and was horn thence removed to the poor.house, and finally to the gaol, from whence she was now brought to give evidence. CLONSIEL, AUGUST 14. Nerrid and Calla were this morning tried sepa. rawly for a conspiracy to murder the late Mr. BAK/La c and convicted on the clearest evidence. There were also indictments against them for the actual murder. on which it was thought unnecessary to try them, the other offence being capital. CAPTAIN GRANT.—This daring offender, this pe nitent convict. was executed at Maryborough, on Monday at noon, amidst a vast concourse of people. His contrition was so sincere and so edifying as io excite universal sympathy. NOILWICH. Saturday last, these Assizes terminated with the trials of the DoWnham Rioters, when sixteen of them received sentence of Death I but before Baron Tatounou left the City he reprieved fourteen of them the remaining two, via. Dorothy Howard. of Down. ham, and Thomas Thods, of Denham, were left for execution. GUILDFORD, MONDAY, AUGUST IL THE KING V.
