HERTPORD JAIL. attirday, Mr. Harmer, the Solicitor for ITunt, ar. r:ved in Heitfordt alsd had an interview with hit client in the jail. Both limit and Prohert's spirits are deptessed ; t hose of the latter, it is said, from an apprehension of the rigid cross-examination which he is likelyto endure, after being examined as King's evidence, Thurtell con tinues entirely unmoved, and talks of the family arrange ments for his future. maintenance, which he hopes to have carried into effect When he gets rid of the present. accusation. He reads the Newspapers, and converses with great apparent indifference upon the common topics of the d ry. He talks of being liberated from the jail about two o'clock on Wednesday next, and intimates . the plan he will adopt of getting quietly to town, when. be hopes his lather will enable Mm to live on the Conti nent, in such a manner as hi; circumstances will perthit. • In the course of Saturday, Mr. James Connolly, ac-. -companied by a friend, arrived at the jail, and_applied - to Mr. Wilson for permission to see his brother, Mr. Pa trick Connolly, on the subject of employing professional assistance. Mr. Connolly's friend said • his name was Peters, and that he was a military man : he introduced the brother to the Governor of the prison, and said that they were very solicitous to see the prisoner with the least pos,ihle delay, as they meant to drive over to the Cotoiter's Inquest, which was about to sit, and be the bearers of a written authority from him, •to authorise 71r: Noel to act as his solicitor, that Gentleman deem such an order necessary. The Rev. Mr. Lloyd, the visiting Magistrate, was im mediately sent for, and he promptly repaired to the jail. The 'prisoner was then brought from the ward in which 7:e is confined, into 'the counting-house, where he had aa interview weep his brother, in the presence of Mr. Lloyd and Islr.Wilson. The prisoner and his brother alrook hands, and were much affected. Mr. Peters (who bad retired before Mr. Connolly entered) was then in• -troduced, lend the necessary instructions for professional sr,iaancie being given, the parties withdrew. The piisoner, Patrick Connolly, is a tall gentlemanly- • Inoking man, fashionably dressed.: he says that he was 15 or 16 years a surgeon in the Dublin Militia. His rlanner was composed, and he speaks of the fatal act which lie perpetrated -as one justified by the violent attack made by the assailants on the house of his friend, Captain Nestor. Brith the brother and his friend seemed asirous, if possible, to have the trial entered upon.at C.; a.ljeurned. commission, which will sit to-morrow, to proceed upon the prisoners charged with the nuirderof 31r. Weare„ but there is no chance 'of Con tolly's ease being heard before the March Assizes, tie i; s inarried to a Lady who has some independent prof. erty ; she has, however, resided .separate from • him `irn , Hampshire for a considerable time. Ile has'requesol t!re daily attendance,of the jail-braiber, as he is not al -I.rwed the use of his owls dressing implements. A lancet, „441 a small paper of gunpowder,' were found in his Fo'ckets when he was lodged in jail. The fatal occurrence atShenley•hill, has excited a :cry strong sensation at Brighton, from the circum flance of Mr. Connolly having practised for some time :';ere us a (surgeon. He had a very elegant house in Sr. James's•street, to which was attached a chymist's Chop. Slr Matthew Tierney, it is said, patronised him: from which circumstance, as well as from a reputation. t,r skill in his profession, he would probably have emi _succeeded, had some domestic unhappiness not warred his prospects. At Brighton Mr. Connolly. and !:ir, wife separated: a coach and handsome establish-• nein were •in consequence given up. Mr. Connolly' :::ortly afterwards left Brighton, with very diminished :..cans and diminished views of prosperity from those s.lth which he first came there. BRIGHTON, JANUARY 2. The splendid Ball at the. Pavilion was continued till after three o'clock this Morning. 'The Grand Music loom was used as a bail-roont on this resplendent occa- . ::on. The dancers were numerous. In a waltz the Duchess of CLARENCE honoured the RUSSIAN AURAS :AD= with her hand. The Royal Duke did not dance. FUND sY E*EXlNG.—Although the festivities of the Pa viion terminated with the juvenile party on New Year's Day, yet the fineness of the Saturday imparted_a most gay and cheerful appearance to the town. The Steine cast thronged from an early hour with a biight assem cf beauty and fashion, and the several pedestrian curies:were permitted by the mildness of the day to extend their walk along, the chain pier. The dinner party at the Pavilion, on Friday and Sa s;:rday, consisted of the Lord and Grooms 'in Waiting, the immediate members.of his Majesty's Household. This day his Maaesry attended Divine Service at the pavilion Chapel. The KING was dressed in black, and simply wore a star on his left breast. Lord ST. Hz- Lord FRANCIS CONYNGRAU, Sir E. NAGLR, and !'ir A. BARNARD, occupied the pew on the right of his ?liarnsn's pew ;in that on left were seated the La dies at present -sojourning at the Pavilion. The body of the Chapel wa s filled w i t h an elegant assemblage of Ole Nobility and Gentry who were fortunate enough to procure tickets of admission. The Chapel only contains 300 persons. The Dean of HEREFORD read prayers, and the Dean of SALISBURY preached. The words, Reformink time," taken from a verse in the 1 Ith chapter of the Epistles of St. Paul, supplied the text, on which the Very Rev. Dean expatiated, and delivered a very sensible discourse on 'the judicious distribution of time, and dwelt upon the sentiments which the period of the new year should inspire. The Anthem was taken • from the 2d Psalm, ' Witlifizriaus and relentless rage :My do the Heatlicn stornr?' The organ pealed its full note in unison with the choir, but the' music was less powerful and effective than on Cirristmas Day. ' AND SCIENCE. . . A !MIMED MAN AND rIORSZ. - The Academy of Sciences at Paris lately heard a re port on the discovery of a petrified man and horse in the ' forest of Fontainebleau. That forest is very remark able, and has never been properly examined. Cuvier is charged with the investigation of this astonishing petri faction, and this may lead to other important researches. FOlO4 OF THE EARTH. The author bf the Mecaitique Celeste his published the fifth and last volitme of his great work. The ques-. tion of the fora of the earth is treated by him in points' Hof view in which it has not hitherto been considered : that is-to say-Ist, The dynamic effect of the presence; and distribution of th e waters on the surfaie of the, globe. 2dly, The_ compression to which The interior , beds are subjected. 3dly, The change of size, which ' may result from the progressive cooling of the earth.— M. de Laplace has arrived at the following results : that, the great mass of the earth is by no means homogene ous ; that the beds situate at the greatest depth are the most dense; that those beds are disposed regularly round the centre of gravity of the globe, and that their 'lerns differs little from that of a curved surface gene. rated by the revolution of an ellipsis ; that the density of water is nearly five times less than the mean density of the earth ; that the presence and distribution of the waters on the surface of the earth do not occasion any considerable alterations in the law of the diminution of the degrees, and in that of weight ; that the theory of any considerable displacing of' the poles - at the stir- face of the earth is inadmissible, and that every geolo gical system founded on. such an hypothesis will not at all accord with the existing knowledge of the. causes which determine the form of the earth; 'that.the tem perature of the globe has not sensibly diminished since the days of Hipparchus (above two thousand years ago), and that the actual loss of heat in that period has not produced a vaiiatioti, in the length of the day, of the two hundredth part of a cente s imal second.--Nets Monthly Magazine. . HATCHING FISH. The Chiner have a method of hatching the spawn of fish, and thus protecting it from those accidents which ordinarily destroy so large a portion of it. The fisher men collect with care on the margin and surface' of waters all those gelatinous matses which contain the spawn of fish. After they have found a sufficient quan• City, they fill with it the shell of a fresh hen egg,which they have previously emptied, stop up the hole, and, put it under a sitting fowl. At the expiration of sl cer. Lain number of days, they break the shell in water warmed by the sun. The young fry are presently hatched, and are kept in pure, fresh water till they are large enough to be thrown into the pond with the old fish.. The sale of spawn for this purpose forms an im portant branch of trade in China. In this, as in soon other matters; re may perhaps take some useful lessons from the Chinese.. The destruction of the. spawn of fish by troll•nets,.threatens the existence of the fishery in many parts. While so much, care is taken for the preservation of game ; some ca r e oug h t to b e b estowe d . on the e reservation of fish.—lbid. • . . A NEW NOSE: Most of bur Readers must have heard of the now operation, lately performed et St. Thoraas'sllospital, and of its ill success. In consequence of Ws failurep Many have shevin a disposition' to" deride: end Under value the efforts of surgical science, and even td Mies- tion. their applicability to such cases. We are happy; therefore, in being enabled to state, that so late as last Seiitember a very unfavourable care of this kind was successfully treated in the St. Pancras Infirmary, by Mr. Davies, the Surgeon. the particulars of which ate de tailed in-The Medical Repository for this month, p. 39, The patient is now quite well: the wound on his fore head, whence the new nose was cut, is completely eke vized ; the nose retains its shape; and his countenance, considering what a ravage disease [syphilis] had made of it, appears manly. ARTIFICIAL ANATOMY. It is well known that imitations of the human subject, for anatomical study, have been made in wax hitherto, in consequence of its flexibility: These imitations, how ever striking and correct, could only present the surface Of objects; they could not give the internal details, which are still more necessary to the study they were fitter for the purposes of a Museum than a Theatre a Anatomy. M. Aurour, a young and clever French physician, has made an astonishing improvement• in those imitations. With a composition resembling paste board, he has been enabled to construct complete bodies, in which all the organs, the minute 4 details of external and internal conformation, are accurately represented. ,The exterior parts are unshipped easily, and according to the rules generally observed in dissection. They give place to the interior parts, which in their turn can be removed with similar facility. Thus the human body can be decomposed into a thousand different pieces. which, as they are regularly numbered, can be again re united to each other. Two advantages are thus obtained over the ordinary method; the disgust inseparable from the dissection of dead bodies is avoided; and the pupil, by recomposing the body, may give a more peifeet knowledge of its individual points. The only objee.. tions to M. Auroux's invention is, that the shades of colour are more perfectly represented by the wax than by his composition ; but this obstacle may be sur mounted; and, for the rest, his imitation is perfect.— The smallest organs, the nerves, the muscles, the veins, and all the vessels, are represented with rigid accuracy. This ingenious invention admits of being applied to many useful and interesting purposes of anatomical pa thology...Jim:cum. ;lock, a IBBIIR ) fell- There being :l range of of pro- ;bourhood .LBRAN, of Lord DAR to stern its depth, same fate pint of -j the passed, one of iend, said, "Why, of foOr.

There has been a great fete at the town once called Plymouth Dock, but now by the more independent and dignified appellation of Devonport. This change, which took place on Thursday the first day of the near year, was celebrated by processions, a public dinner, and other rejoicings. Even the publiCation of a Newspaper, an event of such awful moment that it appears too on. portant to be delayed for, any human consideration, was postponed ; and the Plymouth and Dork Journal, usually published on Thursday, did not appear until Friday, in order that the name of Devonport might be introt!uced into its title, and that it might contain - ad account of the proceedings of the preceding day. The morning was . ushered in by the ringing Of the bells of the parish church, the dock-yard, &c, The day was rather fine, and the consequence was, that before nine o'clock in the morning, the streets were all in a bustle, not only with the inhabitants of De vonport, but with many-of their neighbours of Ply-' mouth and Stonehouse. About nine o'clock those who.were appointed, or in-' tended to join in the procession, began to a ss emble i n . the Town Hall and Ker-street, and after a large distri-1 bution of bread, to the amount of upwards of £5O. we believe, had been made to the poor, an Address written for the occasion was delivered by H. J. John's. Esq. Proclamation of the change of name WAS first made in front of the Town Hall door, about a quarter before ten. • After a flourish of trumpets, the Royal Mandate' for changing the.name Was read in a distinct and audi ble voice by R. Rodd, Esq. the Town Clerk, The King's health was then drank, and" God save the King," and 44 Devonport for ever," given, amidst the most enthu siastic' bursts of applause from all present. A flourish i lof trumpets and the national air of God save the King followed, after which a procession was marshalled, which paraded the streets and passed under a triumphal arch which had been erected for the purpose. . • Soon after five nearly 150 Gentlemen sat down to a ost excellent dinner at the Devonport Royal Hotel, which, was served up in Mrs. Gondes' best style, and with the wines, which were excellent, gave universal satisfaction. The whole of the band. of the Marine orps., stationed here attended and played select music during dinner and throughout the evening. Robert Rundle,. Egg. presided at dinner, and J. Smith, Esq. was Vice-President; Messrs, Rodd, Billing, Ramsey, Burnet, and Barton, . acted as Stewards; and after the cloth was removed, s , Charge" and fire-away Was the order-of the night,,to enforce which, we need .hardly say there was, and indeed on such an occasion could be no difficulty.whateVer. On the right, the Chairman was supported by T. Husband, Esq. the Resident Magis trate, and on the left by John Hawker, Esq. T.• and J. W. Clarke, Estirs, also Magistrates for the South Division of Roborough. Indeed ,- a more highly res pectable company could not have assembled. " The King," and several loyal-toasts, were drank , with en thusiasm. Great part of the company remained and kept it up until a very early, hour in the morning. All was una nimity, harmony, and gbod order; and every persco present during the whole evening seemed delighted. Yesterday morning the Duchess of KENT attended Divine Service at the kisses Royal German Chapel, St. James's, and heard a sermon by the 'Rev. Dr. Korea. POACHING AND ATTEMPT TO MURDER.--On the night of Thursday last (26th ult.) about half-past ten o'clock, Thomas Myers, the gat:twice:ls' er of Colonel Plumbe, and an under . Jreeper, named James Garside, having heard some firing in the woods ill the neighbour hood of Tong-hall, and supposing it to proceed from pheasant shooters, appointed (Garside having in first secured the aid of another of the gamekeepers, named BoOth) to meet at a certain part of the wood, with the view of detecting, if possible, the offenders. But before Garside and Booth had arrived at the place of ren dezvous, they encountered four men armed with guns, two of whom they recognized as John Pearson, of Wit), sey, and George Riley, of Bradford, the former of whom immediately seized Booth, whilst his three associates commenced a most murderous attack upon Garside with the butt ends of their guns, after which, supposing life to be extinct, they threw him into a ditch. Riley then went up to Booth, who had mastered his assailant, and commenced a similar attack upon him, from which he did not desist until he had cruelly beaten him. The four ruffians then decamped with Booth's sword and Garside's stick and hat, leaving behind them - the 'butt end of one gun, and part of the stock of another, which had been broken in the fray. In about five minutes af terwards Myers arrived on the spot with five assistants; and found Garside almost lifeless, and 'Booth in a pi tiable• state. They were both carried home, and on Friday Garside was removed to the Royal Infirmary of this town; where he now remains. Both thise unfortu nate*men are, we undetitatid, likely to do well. One of the brutal perpetrators of this outrage has been arrested, and, as we hear, committed to the Wakefield House of Correction.
